The atmosphere in the room was quite strange. At this moment, no matter how dull a person was, he could vaguely think of something, but if he had to explain things clearly, no matter how smart a person could do it.

"How do you know?" Xiang Bo repeated this question again. He was completely confused now. He looked at the relaxed look of the scholar in front of him. Xiang Bo turned to look at Zhu Da.

His actions surprised Qin Xiucai. He was a young man, a second child, an elder, a junior master and an apprentice. No matter how he looked, Xiang Yue was in his fifties, making decisions. But the tough old man turned to look at a young man, obviously asking for advice, which was unreasonable.

"Master, to be honest, Mr. Qin has no bad intentions." Zhu Da said with a smile. He was speculating now, but he couldn't grasp the overall situation. The only thing that can be confirmed at the moment is that Qin Xiucai had no malice, but there were some coincidences that the other party found interesting.

Xiang Bo nodded, but sat down again, and said in a muffled voice: "The old man went to Xiama Village next door that day. The salt vendors were killed and the salt goods were robbed. I went to see if I could make money by selling salt there. When I came back, I heard about this and saw that daughter..."

Halfway through his words, Zhu Da was a little anxious. His "talk" meant that according to the agreement, why did the master tell the true truth?

The scholar Qin Chuan had noticed that Xiang Bo was at a loss before, but the young man immediately calmed down after giving advice. He was curious about this, but when he saw Zhu Da's anxious expression, Qin Xiucai's face was even more curious and he felt more interesting about this matter.

Zhu Da was not afraid of anything. Telling the "truth" would surprise him and attract a lot of attention to himself and his partners, but that's all, the troubles and details would not be harmful as long as they were careful. So he did not stop Xiang Bo from telling him, but he found something. Xiang Bo did not say everything, but was very selective. Two young men talked about killing the bandits when they met a thief, but did not say anything like cave rock salt and fishing.

As he listened, the smile on Qin Xiucai's face faded and he looked at Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun solemnly. At first, he didn't care about these two young men at all. He thought they were the younger generations who came out to help the world, but he didn't expect that they were the ones who saved the people.

As he was talking, Qin Qin smiled and ran in to get snacks again, and wanted to take them out before going out, but this time Qin Chuan called him to inquire. The girl pointed at Zhu Da and said, "It was Brother Zhu who saved me. He was so scary at that time."

After saying this, there was no doubt. Qin Xiucai smiled again on his face. After pondering for a while, he asked Zhu Da: "Looking at you, you have never wanted outsiders to know that you were killing the bandits to save people. I can probably figure out the cause and effect, so I don't ask. I just want to know that no matter how much you two old and young you can cover up, it is impossible for my daughter to tell lies. If she tells the truth, you can't hide it. What are you thinking?"

Suddenly treating Zhu Da as an adult, this question is not so curious as a test. This question is easy to answer. Zhu Da hesitated because the answer itself will be complicated.

His hesitation made Qin Xiucai nod, and Qin Qin didn't go out and went crazy. He looked curiously from the side. Zhu Da finally figured it out and said slowly: "When ordinary people ask, they wouldn't think of it, they wouldn't think about it, and naturally they wouldn't ask. Even if Qin Qin told the truth, no one would believe the child's words. They would only say that the child was frightened and remembered it wrongly. However, they didn't expect that Mr. Qin was such a person, and Qin Qin was so smart again."

The scholar Qin Chuan looked at Zhu Da carefully, with a little praise on his face, and asked with a smile: "What kind of person is Qin? What can you tell?"

"Mr. Qin is not an ordinary scholar, and there is no other way to see it." Zhu Da told the truth.

Qin Xiucai's expression changed again, and he was a little surprised in his praise, and asked, "Have you read a book?"

“I haven’t read it.”

"What are your parents' origins?"

.........

After asking three questions in a row, asking Zhu Da’s background, it was no longer polite. Xiang Bo coughed with a calm face. The scholar Qin Chuan reacted and shook his head and said, "Qin was so obsessed with his head, which made everyone laugh. I really didn't expect that, I really didn't expect that such a fierce man as Brother Xiang could have a young talent like Zhu Da!"

The weight of this sentence is not light, especially since Qin Xiucai didn't look like an ordinary scholar, his words had a little more other meaning. Xiang Bo and Zhu Da were a little awkward and didn't know how to deal with it. However, Zhou Qingyun had already seen that the Qin family was not too dangerous, so he focused on dealing with the snacks in front of him and was very happy to eat.

At this moment, I heard footsteps outside, and it was not easy to make any sounds when walking on the brick floor, but the footsteps outside were accompanied by a light "click", as if the sound of small metal pieces hitting the ground, gradually approaching the main hall.

Not long after, a man pushed the door open and said hello to Qin Xiucai with a smile: "Mr. Qin, I heard from the younger one that someone has come to your house. I'll come and take a look."

The man came in was a strong man, a middle-aged man in his forties, with dark skin. He had seen that he had experienced wind and frost. Although he had a smile on his face, his eyes were very sharp. After entering the house, he glanced at Zhu Da and the other two, as if he wanted to see through the person. However, after scanning, he relaxed a lot and could feel that the person's eyes had returned to normal.

Zhu Da was uncomfortable when he was seen by the other party, but he felt that the man was dressed very well. He quickly realized that his outfit was the dress of the three private salt knights from Baibao Village a few days ago. The sound of hitting the ground was also clarified. However, it was the spurs on the heel of the leather boots. Usually, the knights would remove the spurs after dismounting. It seemed that this middle-aged man was coming in a hurry.

After seeing this person for a while, Qin Xiucai slowly stood up and said with a smile: "Brother Yu San, everyone here is his own people, so I'm worried about it."

Before the polite treatment was finished there, Xiang Bo, who had just sat down, suddenly stood up with a stunned expression on his face, staring at the newly arrived middle-aged man, and said with a stuttering stuttering: "You...you...you...yes Yu Sanye who is in charge of the Salt Stage Horse Team..."

"You actually recognize me, are you?" The third master frowned and asked, staring at Xiang Bo, obviously not recognizing him.

Before Xiang Bo could speak, scholar Qin Chuan smiled and said, "This is Shang Xiangyue, who is from Baibao Village on the east bank of Xiami River. Even the one who secretly reported the bandits' lair, is also the benefactor who saved my daughter."

After saying this, Master Yu San was stunned for a moment, then stared at Xiang Bo curiously, with a smile on his face, but his attitude became a little reserved, and nodded and said, "It's such a good person. If it weren't for your news this time, it wouldn't have been so accurate. If you made great contributions, the big cabinet wouldn't treat you badly."

Xiang Bo was a little at a loss. After the other party said this, Xiang Bo didn't know how to answer. However, after Master Yu San finished speaking, he looked at Qin Xiucai again, glanced at Xiang Bo again, shook his head and laughed, "I'm lucky enough to have a good life in the future."

"Tonight my benefactor comes to my house. My brother has already called the banquet. How many drinks will be left for Brother Yu San to have?" Qin Xiucai sent an invitation.

"There are a lot of things going on in the Zheng family. Before I finish my work, I will say goodbye first." Brother Yu San refused politely, nodded to Xiang Bo again, and then turned around and left the house.

At this time, Qin Qin and Zhou Qingyun had similar expressions in the room. Looking at this and that, Xiang Bo frowned. While looking at Qin Xiucai carefully, he turned to look at Zhu Da, hoping to get advice from him. Qin Xiucai's attention was mostly shifted to Zhu Da. In the whole room, only Zhu Da was still calm and was thinking about something now.

Zhu Da was reviewing what he saw just now. After the person named "Brother Yu San" came in, he first observed whether they were dangerous or not, and then said hello. At this time, the scholar Qin Chuan stood up. Judging from the conversation and etiquette between the two parties, Yu San Ge was very polite to this scholar Qin, with respect but keeping a distance, but Qin Xiucai's identity was higher than the other party, but he was sure.

Then there is Xiang Bo's name, "In charge of the Salt Stream Horse Team" must mean the knights in the Private Salt Organization. "Yu San Ge" is in charge of the military force of the Private Salt Organization. This must be the upper core of the Private Salt Organization. Such a person needs Qin Xiucai to be polite and respect. So what is this scholar's identity? Judging from the fact that Xiang Bo's identity was just mentioned and the secrets of the Private Salt Organization, Qin Xiucai has nothing to do with ordinary scholars...

"Master, the banquet has been delivered. Arrange it in the front hall according to the old rules?" someone asked outside the door.

Qin Xiucai agreed, then asked Zhu Da with a smile, "Zhu Da, what have you come up with? Do you know what I do?"

After asking this, even Xiang Bo's eyes were betting on Zhu Da. Zhu Da pondered silently. The scholar Qin Chuan shook his head. Even adults might not be able to think through the questions he asked. How can a young man who has never read a book and grows in a closed environment answer? The answer just now may be someone who taught him that Zhu Da might just be a bit brave.

No matter what, the baby girl lost and got back, this is a happy day. Why bother to make everyone unhappy because of the exam? Qin Xiucai is ready to say something gossiped back.

"The most confidential matter of extermination of bandits in Shengping Salt Stage. Mr. Qin knew this. I thought he could participate in the confidentiality in the Salt Stage, at least he was a teacher and a staff member..." Zhu Da spoke.

After hearing this, the scholar Qin Chuan was stunned, shook his head and smiled, "I also said that I had never read a book, how could I know this before?"

In the heart of this scholar, it is considered a normal and can guess it even if you slap your head around. However, it is not easy for a young man who grew up in a remote area. The allusions and nouns in Zhu Da's speech must have been read. Qin Chuan was about to end this conversation, but Zhu Da did not stop.

"Then Brother Yu is in charge of the Salt Stage Horse Team, and he is also an important figure in the Salt Stage, but he is so polite and obedient to Mr. Qin. How could a person who controls swords and weapons be so respectful to his masters and aides? I believe Mr. Qin can control him, at least he is above him. I think there will be no more than three people in this Salt Stage. Mr. Qin must be one of them. Maybe he will be the one who came up with an idea. I don't know what to call such a person, the chief executive?"
