90,000 Years of Longevity

Chapter 246: Bribery

Tang Nan didn't go fast.

The sun hat was deliberately lowered... to make himself look like a tourist, trying not to attract anyone's attention.

And as he continued to move deeper into the town, the shouts from both sides continued to drill into his ears.

"Wild honey for sale... It's absolutely natural, the price is only a hundred Yuan per catty." An old man yelled, his face full of smiles and a row of neat teeth.

"Sir, here are the fresh mountain mushrooms just picked from the mountain. It just costs fifty Yuan and you can pack it all away." A woman waved at Tang Nan.

"Handmade necklaces are all woven from mountain gems, ten Yuan each! You can earn it when you buy it."

There were also some young people who were setting up a stall with a loudspeaker on the ground, the sound of which was constantly repeating.

On the streets, there are countless tourists and children.

Tang Nan watched.

But for a long time, he didn't notice any abnormalities in this town.

It was the occasional wind that made him feel a little cold instead.

After half an hour, Tang Nan walked to the door of a jewelry store.

This jewelry shop was called Tang's Jewelry.

There was a wooden board at the door. On the wooden board, all kinds of gold and silver jewelry were neatly placed. It was not known if it was true or not. However, in such a place, no one stole or snatched it.

But

There were still voices of bargaining.

"Boss, your bracelet is too expensive for 3,000 Yuan, right? When I was on the side of the road just now, others only sold it for ten Yuan."

A woman in a skirt, holding a jade bracelet and wearing it on her wrist, looked very fond of it, but her mouth blabbered constantly.

The shop owner was an old man. His hair was gray and his teeth were sparse.

He also held a fan in his hand.

Hearing the woman's words, the old man showed a simple smile on his face and confidently said, "This guest, the jewelry on the stalls are all fakes. My store only sells genuine ones! See that plaque outside? Tang's Jewelry... This is the property of the Tang Family. It is guaranteed by the Tang Family's reputation. The jade bracelet for 3,000 Yuan is already very cheap."

"The Tang Family? Could it be the richest one under the mountain?" The woman seemed a little surprised.

"Yes!" The old man nodded.

"Well, if it's their store, then the price is normal, but why put these bracelets on the street like this?" The woman nodded as her tone became calmer.

The old man smiled again, "Anyway, it's all for sale. It doesn't matter how you place it."

On the street, Tang Nan stopped, stood outside, watching this quietly.

When he saw the woman put the jade bracelet down and was about to leave...

He opened his mouth and whispered in a low voice, "Someone once said that Qingyi Town is a very magical town. When someone comes here, they will accidentally go to an unprecedented world! That world, the whole street is extremely quiet, there are no stalls, only old people and children there, they all live a carefree life, but this is the third time I have come to this small town, and all I see are benefits, businessmen, and the bustling scenery."

"You're sick!" After listening, the woman turned around and glanced at Tang Nan, leaving these two words coldly in her voice, and she left quickly.

Tang Nan gritted his teeth but finally held back.

When he came to Qingyi Town this time, he promised himself to keep a low profile and never make trouble.

And the old man in the shop, after looking at Tang Nan, the smile on his face remained the same, but his eyes were a little confused, "Sir, I have lived in this small town since I was a child. I have heard the legend, but I have never seen it."

"Really?" Tang Nan shook his head and put aside all the messy things in his mind. He came today to watch the murder, not to care about this matter. 

Soon, his eyes were frozen, his voice was indifferent, but his tone revealed disdain, "This is the property of the Tang Family. Are you the owner of this store? That is, the employees hired by the Tang Family, right?"

"It can also be understood like this, Sir, you are?" The old man opened his mouth, narrowed his eyes, and looked at Tang Nan seriously.

And Tang Nan lowered his sun hat with his hands, looked around with vigilant eyes, and then decisively stepped forward and walked towards the shop. When he passed by the old man's ear, he said deeply, "Go in and talk." 

"Sir, you are not allowed to enter here."

The old man was taken aback, and after seeing Tang Nan had already walked into the shop, he hurriedly followed and tried to persuade Tang Nan to leave.

But Tang Nan didn't seem to hear it.

When the two of them all walked into the shop and confirmed that no one else would hear them, Tang Nan took the sun hat off.

At this moment, his expression also became extremely serious.

"Since this shop belongs to the Tang Family, then... if I'm right, old man, your surname is Tao, right?" Tang Nan was not polite at all when he entered the shop, his voice was cold and he had a condescending attitude.

"Ugh..." The old man paused for a while, "Sir, you..."

Tang Nan didn't give the old man a chance to finish speaking as he waved his hand unceremoniously, "Okay, okay... Don't sir this, don't sir that anymore! Let's be honest, I'm from the Tang Family, and the Tang Family's direct descendant Tang Nan. You should have heard of me, right?"

"People from the Tang Family? Sir...I'm sorry, I have never heard of you. My shop only accepts the guidance of the Tang Family's Patriarch. If it is the Tang Family's direct descendant, I will not accept it." 

However, Tang Nan didn't care at all.

"Heh! I came here on behalf of the Patriarch. Don't talk too much nonsense. I will ask you a few questions. Yesterday, the Patriarch asked you to arrange a place for someone in Qingyi Town, right?" Tang Nan asked coldly.

The old man nodded, "I know, I arranged this."

"I have learned the news that Tang Anhe will send someone to assassinate that person for some personal reasons. What do you think of this?" Tang Nan continued, his eyes staring tightly when he said this to the old man.

"Assassination?" The old man was startled.

But in the next second... he was calm again.

"Sir, I know what you mean... I'm just a shop owner, of course, strictly speaking, even an employee hired by the Tang Family! I know what I am doing, I just make arrangements for that person. I don't know or don't want to know about other things." The old man said seriously.

Tang Nan shook his head, "There are some things you have to know. For example, it was Tang Anhe who sent someone to assassinate!" When speaking, Tang Nan stretched out a hand and placed it in his trouser pocket.

Quickly, he took out a bank card from him pocket.

"There are two hundred thousand in this. It's probably your salary for two years. You are already a lot of age, so I think you know how to choose." After speaking, Tang Nan directly threw the card on top of the desk in the shop. 

After doing this, Tang Nan raised his foot, put on the sun hat again, and walked toward the outside.
