The Rough Hunter's Little Lucky Wife-Chapter 321 - 321 Zhang Family
321 Zhang Family
Zhao Zhan instinctively rolled to the ground and Fang Tianliu ran over to him.
“Fang Tianliu, let’s go.”
The horse was leashed at the entrance of the clinic.
Zhao Zhan pushed Fang Tianliu out and kicked the two men who had just attacked him.
!!
“Zhao Zhan, something dropped on the ground.”
Zhao Zhan didn’t have time to look at what was on the ground. He picked it up, put it in his arms, and mounted his horse. 𝗳𝔯𝙚e𝒘e𝚋𝘯𝚘ν𝙚l.𝑐o𝙢
After leaving the town, the two of them avoided the main road and chose a small path.
“Zhao Zhan, did you manage to buy some dry food in town just now?”
After riding the horse for a long distance, Fang Tianliu rubbed his stomach and lay on the horse’s back. “I can’t hang on anymore.”
“Let’s buy some food if we pass by any villages.” Zhao Zhan took off the water bottle from his waist and threw it to the other party. “I only had time to refill the water. Drink some of this first and hold on.” He took out the thing he had just picked up from the ground and looked at it.
It was a wooden token.
The word Lin was carved on it.
“Is this the Lin family’s token?” Zhao Zhan turned the token over. “Do you think Shang and Lin Chenzhi are working together?”
Fang Tianliu came up to him and took the token. “This token should belong to the Lin family in Bei City. When I was in Huai County, I’m pretty sure I saw this token hanging on the waist of Lin Chenzhi’s attendant.”
“It seems like the original plan won’t work.”
Zhao Zhan had originally planned to first look for the Lin family after entering Bei City, and under the pretense of sprucing up business cooperation, he would have Lin Chenzhi bring him to familiarize himself with the Lin family’s business in Bei City.
In order to make use of this opportunity, he hid behind Wagler and planned to challenge the Lin family in the business arena.
This way, he would be able to find out why the Lin family wanted to snatch his lover’s dowry and find out the truth.
The other reason was to know one’s enemy and know one’s own strength. He wanted to settle the Lin family’s affairs as quickly as possible and return to Wangshan.
Zhao Zhan kept the token. “Let’s take it one step at a time. Right now, we have to think of a way to sneak into Bei City. We still have to find a way to get a fake travel pass.”
If he were to use the current guide to enter Bei City, he and Fang Tianliu would probably be discovered the moment they try to enter the city.
“I have a way.” Fang Tianliu’s eyes lit up. “My father once told me that there’s a group of people who specialize in making fake travel passes. As long as they’re in a big city, we’ll definitely be able to find them. I know how to find them. When we reach Jiaocheng, we’ll get two of them.”
“Alright.”
With the new travel passes, Zhao Zhan and Fang Tianliu successfully entered Bei City half a month later.
“Zhao Zhan, did you see that? Those people at the city gate were holding portraits of us, weren’t they?”
Zhao Zhan nodded.
The two of them walked past the people holding the portraits with fake travel passes without anyone noticing.
They quickly made their way in.
Their beards were thick and dense, and their faces became rough and dark traveling under the sun.
If Fang Tianliu looked a little unkempt and messy, then Zhao Zhan looked like a burly mountain barbarian.
“Are we going to meet up with Wagler?”
Before they parted, Wagler had informed Zhao Zhan of his address in Bei City.
“I don’t think Wagle has arrived yet. They’re transporting goods, so the carriage can’t go as fast as us. Besides, the people from Shang must have been watching Wagler the whole time.”
“Then what should we do?”
Fang Tianliu was confused as to what to do next. “The things we brought are all with him. It’s not good to keep waiting here. What if the authorities find us before we find Wagler?”
“We’re not waiting in vain.”
Zhao Zhan took out copper coins and bought six large meat buns. After handing them to Fang Tianliu, he took a big bite. “Let’s go to the Zhang family first.”
“The Zhang family?” Fang Tianliu swallowed the bun in his mouth. “The Zhang family that my father sent over?”
“Yes, we should go since we have the time. We can see if we can find any clues about your father’s task.”
Zhao Zhan chomped down a few meat buns in two mouthfuls, took his water bottle, and took a big gulp. With that, he felt like he had finally come to life.
Along the journey, he and Fang Tianliu didn’t live luxuriously, every day was full of trials and tribulations.
Fang Tianliu took the water bottle and did the same.
“Are we going immediately?”
“Yes, there’s no need to pack.”
Fang Tianliu didn’t know much. The two of them asked around for a long time before they finally found out that there was indeed a family with the surname Zhang who had dealt with the bodyguard agency a month ago.
There were too many people on guard duty, and many people noticed them when they walked past the street.
Zhao Zhan asked for the specific location and brought Fang Tianliu to knock on the door.
He also wanted to know if the Zhang family had any connections with him.
“And you two are?”
The Zhang family’s gatekeeper heard the knock and frowned when he saw the two of them. “Where did the both of you come from? State your business.”
“We’re not refugees. We’re just here to ask about some things.” Zhao Zhan’s posture was upright, and his eyes were clear. “A month ago, your family received something from Fang Yuan bodyguard agency from Huai County. We’re here to make a return visit.”
He had learned the term return visit from Yue Jiaojiao.
“Oh, about that” The guard’s vigilance disappeared. “Do you still have to pay a return visit after the task? What do you do specifically?”
Fang Tianliu suppressed his excitement. “We’re here to confirm if your family is satisfied with the task and if they have any opinions about our agency. If it’s possible, please introduce us to your main family so that we can conclude our task efficiently.”
...
Zhao Zhan promptly handed over a small piece of silver. “Please pass on the message promptly. It would be greatly appreciated.”
The gatekeeper weighed the silver in his hand and clenched it tightly. “You can wait here. I’m only responsible for passing on the message. I can’t guarantee whether the master will be willing to see you.”
“Thank you for your trouble.”
The gatekeeper locked the door again and quickly went in to inform the others.
The two of them stood at the door for almost an hour before the gatekeeper returned. “Please follow me. He is waiting for you in the front hall.”
“Many thanks.”
Zhao Zhan beckoned for Fang Tianliu to enter the courtyard.
“I’ve heard about the Zhang family before. They’re from Bei City, but that’s all I remember.”
The gatekeeper smiled and said, “There is more than Zhang in our residence. May I know if you are looking for a specific person? ”
“Zhang Lingshen.” Zhao Zhan’s tone was tentative, and his eyes fell on the gatekeeper. “Is he here?”
The gatekeeper’s expression changed and the smile on his face disappeared, “I’m not sure. I think the person you’re talking about is not from our residence. It’ll be better if you don’t talk nonsense when you see my master later.” 𝐟r𝒆ℯ𝘄𝑒𝒃𝚗𝒐𝘃e𝗹.c𝘰𝐦
...
Zhao Zhan’s eyes were searching for something, but his words were straight to the point. “Don’t worry, I understand.”
The two of them were brought to the front hall.
A slightly chubby man with peppered hair was sitting at the head of the table. He slowly got up when he saw the two of them come in.
When Fang Tianliu saw the other party’s face, he subconsciously looked at Zhao Zhan with a strange expression.
