Of course, the old shopkeeper Gu recognized the shopkeeper Yue of the restaurant next door, and the two of them had a pretty good relationship.
After all, they have been neighbors for many years and often buy things from Muzhaotang.
But shopkeeper Gu also recognized that the person next to shopkeeper Yue was the famous gangster leader of Tianbei Street.
Everyone called him Hei Xiaolong.
It is said that this person was born with a long and slender black mark on his back, which looked like a small winding snake, even a snake letter.
The black snake sounds unpleasant, so it is called the black dragon.
But Hei Xiaolong’s actual surname is Bai, and he likes others to call him Lord Long.
Shopkeeper Yue was obviously accompanying the guests and was lagging behind.
Hei Xiaolong said directly to shopkeeper Gu: "I can lend you a step to talk."
Shopkeeper Gu looked around and didn't know where to borrow a step.
It happened that there were no customers at this time, so he shouted to Dajiang and asked him to go to the backyard to help the day laborers.
Looking at Dajiang, Hei Xiaolong said to Old Shopkeeper Gu: "Someone wants to burn down your shop."
"It's really going to be burned."
Miss Xia had warned her about fire prevention before.
Old shopkeeper Gu had doubts in her heart.
Now that Hei Xiaolong said this again, she immediately screamed.
"Well, you know this."
Hei Xiaolong raised his eyebrows, feeling that he really came to the right place this time.
It seems that the person who is planning to do something dirty is very casual, and the real boss is on guard.
"I don't know."
Shopkeeper Gu quickly shook his head, and skillfully grabbed two pieces of silver and gave them to Hei Xiaolong, and gave another small piece to Shopkeeper Yue, "Please tell me what's going on."
Nowadays, Mu Zhaotang's business is not what it used to be.
The two pieces of silver given to Hei Xiaolong are about five taels, which is more than enough for information fees.
Boss Hei came here to sell information, so he elaborated immediately.
It turned out that not long ago, the other table dining at the small restaurant with Manager Mao, his wife, and Xia Xiaodong were Hei Xiaolong's brothers.
Originally, this restaurant was the canteen where Hei Xiaolong and his brothers gathered for dinner.
If I have an appointment with someone to talk about numbers, it will always be here.
Originally, those brothers had no homes to return to during the Chinese New Year, so they simply gathered together to eat and drink.
When they were ready to eat and drink enough, they started playing Pai Gow on the spot.
Unexpectedly, he came across a business deal.
The voices of Manager Mao and his wife were rising and falling.
Not only Xia Xiaodong heard it, but Hei Xiaolong's brothers also heard it.
How can we not do the door-to-door business of throwing torches?
Shortly after Xia Xiaodong left, Manager Mao and his wife became increasingly careless in their words.
This is true for many people.
If there are people nearby, remember to lower your volume a bit, for fear of being overheard.
If you see someone far away, you just think that they must not be able to hear you.
Little did he know that, without realizing it, he had completely missed the point.
At that moment, a brother came over to chat with him and offered to help throw the torch.
"One tael of silver."
Hei Xiaolong said with a smile: "Those two people are quite rich, especially the woman."
As he spoke, he spat, "No wonder women are said to be the most poisonous people."
"Then how many do they want to throw away?"
Old shopkeeper Gu glanced at the two small pieces of silver tossed in Hei Xiaolong's hand, thinking that if Hei Xiaolong didn't go too far, he would give them to him.
If people come to sell information, they should at least get the money they deserve.

For example, you can get ten taels by throwing torches, and you can get five taels by selling information.
If you don't say anything, you can make up for it by throwing five torches.
But if Hei Xiaolong said a hundred, it would be unbearable and he would have to find another way.
Hei Xiaolong was very professional and said with a smile: "Originally, the woman said to just throw it away until it rises, and the money will be calculated based on the actual amount."
"In the end, the man quit.
He said he was worried about how to count in the chaos because he was afraid of deliberately over-reporting to get money.
In the end, we agreed to throw five sticks first.
If the effect was not good and couldn't be lit, we would add five more sticks."
"Thank you, Mr.
Long."
Old shopkeeper Gu cupped his hand as a sign of gratitude to Hei Xiaolong: "The one who is going to set the fire is a short and thin man with a dark face and the look of a coffin board."
Hei Xiaolong smiled and said: "Yeah, she looks like this.
That woman is easier to recognize.
She is tall and fat, as fat as a pig, and her skin is quite white."
Well, short, thin, black and tall, white and fat, this combination is really easy to recognize.
Hei Xiaolong continued: "They are very impatient and have agreed to take action tomorrow night.
What happens next depends on what you want."
Now that the news has been passed, Hei Xiaolong and his gang will definitely not take action seriously.
They usually find a reason to push back.
If Mu Zhaotang wants to arrest the culprit, they will have to pay extra money to cooperate.
"Tomorrow night is so soon."
Old shopkeeper Gu was surprised.
It turned out that Manager Mao had such a cruel idea.
No wonder he was so decisive when leaving.
"If you don't rush to the beginning of the month, how can you wait until the fifteenth moon to get things done?"
Hei Xiaolong laughed unconsciously, feeling that old shopkeeper Gu had a big beard in his age, but these methods were blocked.
In fact, the employer who was sold obviously had very little understanding of the arson business.
Setting fire is a technical job.
Especially in winter, when there is snow everywhere, it becomes increasingly difficult.
The wood is not just shavings, and Mu Zhaotang is not a new shop that opened on the first day, so people will be wary of it.
If you really want to set a fire, throwing the torch itself is a stupid idea.
Who knows where it was thrown?
And everyone who has thrown it knows that after the torch falls down, the inner flame at the bottom is the most difficult to ignite, and the outer flame at the top is the best.
If you want to light the wood pile on fire like this, you really need a bit of luck.
If you really want to burn Muzhaotang, the reasonable approach is to send a dexterous person to pour some oil on the pile of wood to be burned, and then pour out some oil lines.
In this way, as long as one of them can be lit, it will burst into flames.
Will Hei Xiaolong teach others such a complicated method?
After telling the truth, anyone caught on fire in a similar situation will be blamed on him.
What's more, although arson requires experienced hands who know how to set fire, you can't just find people right under your nose and separated by only a wall.
You are an outsider with a blind eye, how can you do this kind of thing randomly?
The more you take the initiative to get closer, the more careful you have to be.
I don’t even have any experience in this field, but I still want to imitate others in setting fires.
"In this way," Mr.
Gu, the salt sauce he has eaten for decades, has not been in vain.
He immediately said: "Master Long, please don't go far today and tomorrow.

I'll go find You Lizheng, and then I'll go see what Bantou Li wants."
How much money can we ask for?
Gu Si will go find our boss.
When we get back, we can meet in my small courtyard and make a charter.
How about it?"
Hei Xiaolong was overjoyed, knowing that money was about to come into his account again, he immediately smiled and said: "This is easy.
It doesn't take long for you to move around.
I'll call two or three brothers and bring some wine and meat directly to your courtyard.
Just wait.”
Shopkeeper Yue is naturally responsible for the banquet
