Chapter 69.
Guo Chong was on the side with his brush, looking at Jiang Ran.
Seeing his face full of joy, he was a bit speechless for a moment:
“Master Liu is right, you are still really seeing money.”
Jiang Ran sniffed and glanced at him:
“Where in this world is there anyone who doesn’t see money?”
“That’s true, besides fools and madmen, who doesn’t love money?
“Those who claim they don’t love money are mostly hypocrites.”
Guo Chong nodded repeatedly:
“A gentleman loves money in the right way, as long as this money comes from the right place, what does it matter?”
“Your Excellency is indeed a sensible person.”
Jiang Ran smiled, took out the stack of silver bills, stuffed them inside the baggage, and pulled out two gourds from the baggage, and threw them to Guo Chong with a flick of his hand.
Guo Chong casually grabbed it and caught the stuff in his hand, opened the lid and smelled it, then his eyes lit up:
“Twenty years old?”
“Your Excellency is so painful, of course I have to show something.”
“Hmph, after giving you more than ten thousand taels, you’re returning two gourds of wine to me?”
Guo Chong grunted, then said:
“Come come come, I happen to still have some food here, come and have a drink with me.”
“No.”
Jiang Ran waved his hand:
“The matter of the Cangzhou Mansion is over, I’m going back to the inn to pack up, this is going to leave this place.”
“Leaving here?”
Guo Chong froze, but nodded:
“That’s right, a person’s jianghu, naturally, one can come when they want to and leave when they want to.
“Seeing that you are so dashing, it makes this official envious.
“Unfortunately, ah …… being in the officialdom, always have no choice.
“You wait.”
Between words, he reached out and picked at his table, quickly getting a booklet.
With a flick of his hand, he threw it to Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran casually took it, and saw that the three big words [Heavenly Que] were written on the booklet.
“This is?”
Jiang Ran glanced at Guo Chong.
“All the things that Heavenly Section has investigated so far are on this.”
Guo Chong looked at Jiang Ran, and there seemed to be a little smile on his face.
Jiang Ran, on the other hand, was somewhat speechless:
“I am not a member of the officialdom, you once said outright earlier that the people of the Heavenly Section had not been wanted ……”
“It’s true that they haven’t been wanted, but they have been on the Sword Execution Division’s list.”
“Sword Execution Division?”
Jiang Ran was slightly stunned:
“What is this?”
“A newly constructed yamen, proposed by the current left minister, Lord Lian Ziqian Lian, who has now gradually come to the forefront.
“This Yamen is specialized in knife catchers.
“And if you receive the order of catching the sword, you will be qualified to receive from within this sword-executing division, the sea arrest paperwork that ordinary people can’t receive.
“For example, …… Heavenly Section!”
Guo Chong glanced at Jiang Ran and said with a smile:
“The Heavenly Section is not an easy one to deal with, and besides the Heavenly Section, there are also too many things under this sky that cannot be brought to the surface.
“For example, the Devil Cult that has been running rampant for hundreds of years in the past, if they were to be put up on a sea arrest notice and someone really went looking for them without knowing what to do, you can imagine what would happen.
“These things are not something that ordinary people can do, it can only be done by an expert like you.”
Jiang Ran, on the other hand, was pondering:
“Your Excellency’s reliance, is that them?”
“You pry less into this official’s affairs.”
Guo Chong glanced at Jiang Ran, then said, “But what you said is almost the same, the dependence behind me is indeed them.
“It’s just that the water here is too deep, it’s not good for you to know more.
“Alright, you can leave now.”
“Farewell.”
Jiang Ran clasped his fists and glanced at the screen behind Guo Chong before turning to leave.
Waiting for Jiang Ran to step out of the small courtyard, behind the screen this turned out a person …… Luo Qingyi!
Luo Qingyi looked in the direction Jiang Ran had left and he frowned slightly:
“My lord, Jiang Ran’s martial arts are strong, I’m hiding behind the screen like this, he will find out.
“Even …… he is afraid that he already knows who I am.”
“Do you think he is an idiot?”
Guo Chong glanced at Luo Qingyi and shook his head:
“He’s not just high in martial arts, but he’s also smart enough.
“Even if he doesn’t know that you’re hiding behind the screen today, he’s bound to know that you’re one of mine in the coming day.
“Instead of making an ugly scene at that time, it would be better if this would be slightly more open and honest.”
“Your lordship seems to trust him.”
Luo Qingyi smiled faintly.
Guo Chong, on the other hand, frowned slightly and thought carefully for a moment and said:
“You don’t say, this official really somehow got to know him at first sight.
“Okay, not with you to say this much nonsense, the revenge of the past years has been avenged, you go.
“What he wants to know, you can also tell him by all means.
“If he doesn’t want to know, you don’t have to say much.”
“Yes.”
Luo Qingyi slightly cupped his fists, his figure turned behind the screen, and then came the movement of closing the window.
……
……
Walking out of the small courtyard, he walked out along the government office road.
Seeing that he was at the door, he saw Master Liu running inside in a hurry again.
This person Xu’s is already tired about to be confused.
Both eyes were open, but confused, staring at Jiang Ran for a while, then suddenly slapped his head:
“Young warrior Jiang!!!”
This voice is somewhat refreshing.
The government officials around him couldn’t help but look towards him.
The corners of Jiang Ran’s mouth twitched a bit, slightly cupping his fists:
“Master Liu.”
“Seeing you just now, it feels as if I’ve forgotten something.”
Master Liu said:
“Seeing you again this time, I finally remembered.
“Young Scholar Jiang, the person you asked me to inquire about for you, I have already inquired.”
Jiang Ran’s eyes lit up:
“Where is he?”
“Don’t know.”
Master Liu shook his head:
“Most half a month ago, this person once stayed in the Cangzhou Prefecture, after which he hit the south gate and went out, tossing and turning all the way first to Penma County and then to the northwest.
“My people follow the clues to chase out, has been to Penma County to inquire about the news before returning.
“That’s why I kept Mr. Jiang waiting.”
After hearing Master Liu’s exact answer, Jiang Ran in was finally greatly relieved.
The old drunkard was able to go through the south gate on his own, so he had obviously really left the Cangzhou Prefecture.
After inquiring with Master Liu about the path to Penma County, Jiang Ran then cupped his fists and thanked him.
Master Liu, on the other hand, waved his hand in a muddled manner, and then continued to go to work …….
This scene to see the Jiang Ran boss not fall endure, always feel that continue like this, in the future probably will not see Master Liu.
After that, when he went back to the inn, there was nothing more to say.
Sitting on the bed of the inn.
Jiang Ran opened his reward list.
[Received Reward: Three years of internal strength!
[Earned Reward: Five Years of Internal Strength!
[Earned Reward: Three Years of Internal Strength!
[Earned Reward: Four Years of Internal Strength!
[Earned Reward: Seven Skillful Heavenly Worker’s Hands (fifty-three years)!

Jiang Ran looked over one by one, the others were fine, it was just the last one that left him momentarily dumbfounded.
Blood Tripod Scripture!
