“When will your shopkeeper come back?” Bei Yutang asked.
This was the first time she used this token, and she didn’t know how effective it would be. However, even though the clerks below didn’t recognize it, the shopkeeper must have known it.
The clerk smiled and said, “This guest is really unfortunate. Our shopkeeper has something to do at home, so he hasn’t been here for a while. Why don’t you come back in a few days?”
Bei Yutang didn’t have that much time to waste here, “I wonder where the shopkeeper lives.”
Since he wasn’t there, she had to go to his house to find him.
The clerk looked embarrassed, “This…”
Bei Yutang saw the clerk’s concerns and explained, “I was entrusted by someone to come to the shopkeeper. I have to complete the client’s task on time. If I fail to complete it on time, the reward will be gone.”
The clerk saw him say so and wrote down the shopkeeper’s address.
Bei Yutang thanked him and left the rouge shop directly.
After they left, the clerk looked thoughtful.
“Hey, waiter, let me see that rouge.” A female customer in the store shouted at the clerk.
The clerk immediately withdrew his attention from Bei Yutang and the others and greeted the customers enthusiastically.
Bei Yutang took Xiao Zimo to the shopkeeper’s house. When they found the place, they saw white cloth hanging on the door and could vaguely hear mourning music and crying coming from the courtyard.
When Bei Yutang came to the door, the old man who was guarding the door saw them and asked suspiciously, “Who are you looking for?”
“Excuse me, is this the house of the shopkeeper of Lei’s rouge shop?” Bei Yutang asked in a rough voice.
“Yes.”
“It’s like this. We’re from the Lei Trading Company in Yunzhou City, and we want to talk to the shopkeeper about something.”
Bei Yutang was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to get in, so she held up a big banner.
When the old man heard that the person was from the provincial capital, he immediately and enthusiastically led the person in.
He seemed to be afraid that the master’s failure to go to the store would make the visitor unhappy, so he explained as he walked.
“My master’s mother passed away suddenly, so he has been busy with the old lady’s funeral arrangements these days.”
Bei Yutang nodded to show her understanding.
When they entered the mourning hall in the main hall, the people in the room cast their eyes on them.
The old man walked up and said to the middle-aged man kneeling in front of the mourning hall: “Master, this is from the Lei’s Company in Yunzhou City.”
When Shopkeeper Zhang heard that the visitor was from Yunzhou City, he immediately stood up and looked at Bei Yutang. He looked at her clothes and the delicate child beside her, and he felt a little suspicious.
Could this person be a liar?
Bei Yutang saw the suspicion in his eyes and didn’t explain, “Shopkeeper Zhang, can you please have a word with me?”
Seeing that this was his home and there were so many people at home, Shopkeeper Zhang thought that the person would not do anything to him, so he nodded at her.
“Okay.”
The two of them walked to a secluded place, and without waiting for him to speak, Bei Yutang took out the token from her sleeve.
When Shopkeeper Zhang saw the token, his pupils shrank. It took a while for him to relax from the shock.
“What’s your name?” Shopkeeper Zhang said humbly.
“The name is just a code name. I came here to deliver something to you. The item is in the inn outside. Please move it.” Bei Yutang said in a rough voice.
“Okay, okay.” Shopkeeper Zhang nodded repeatedly.
When they returned to the main hall again, everyone saw Shopkeeper Zhang bowing his head and following the strange man out of the house.
Xiao Zimo saw his mother coming back and followed her.
