Chen Mu was so angry that he didn't want to talk. This old man would cheat him whenever he got the chance!
But who can blame them for being irreplaceable?
"You can't eat it all in one bite." Jie Jia handed Chen Mu a white porcelain bottle and reminded him.
"What? It's poisonous?" Chen Mu still wanted to try the taste.
"You'll die of overeating." Jie Jia said calmly.
Chen Mu: “…”
……
After dinner, after seeing Jie Jia off, Chen Mu sat at the desk in the room and lit the oil lamp.
Take out the porcelain bottle given by Jie Jia and pour it out.
"This thing is a bigu pill."
Chen Mu held a white jade pill the size of a longan, his eyes full of disbelief.
"Would the old man just play with a jade bead to fool me?"
This old man has a history of selling fake drugs!
The Bigu Pill is round and white jade in color, and feels heavy when placed in the palm of your hand.
Chen Mu clenched his hands slightly, but they didn't move at all.
He has mastered the seven kinds of physical training and his strength is unbelievable. With that pinch just now, he could even crush the stone beads.
"interesting!"
Chen Mu placed the small porcelain plate on the desk.
Courage covered his right hand, and the black nail of his index finger scratched slightly.
squeak...
A series of teeth-grinding friction sounds were heard.
Bits of white jade fragments fell, and a faint scent of grass and trees wafted into the air.
“It’s not really a stone.”
I put a little powder in my mouth, and it was like cotton candy, melting in my mouth.
A sweet and cool feeling came over my heart and then went down my throat into my stomach.
A feeling of fullness came suddenly.
“That’s awesome!”
"If I can copy it, I won't have to worry about the consumption of the Cloud Mirage Shape Training Technique." Chen Mu's eyes lit up.
"No rush, take your time later."
Black smoke emerged, and the Qigong Pill was put into the Five Ghosts Bag.
"There are more important things to do now."
Chen Mu adjusted his clothes, changed his appearance, and looked left and right in the mirror.
Beyond recognition, very good!
Then he walked out of the house leisurely and headed straight for Chunfeng Tower in Taipei City.

Chapter 138 Infiltration
Chunfeng Tower, Taipei City.
In a small compartment in the corner of the lobby on the first floor.
Sun Enqi sat in the middle of the couch with his fat belly sticking out.
He reached out to pick up a piece of braised beef and chewed it with a look of enjoyment on his face.
"The food and wine at Chunfeng Tower are really delicious." He picked up the wine cup beside him and drank it in one gulp.
He immediately looked up and stared at the enchanting figure on the stage in the distance.
"His seventh uncle. Da Wang is an honest child and can't speak, but fortunately he is strong and obedient." Sun Enwu picked up the wine jug and filled the empty glass, and whispered with a smile on his face.
"Last time you said that the Tangshan Army Cook Camp was short of people..."
Sun Enqi glanced at the dull young man in the corner who didn't even dare to raise his head, and shook his head.
"There was a vegetable cutter whose leg was broken by a grain bag."
"That's easy for me to say. But the old clerk is greedy and cunning. He is really a bit troublesome."
Sun Enwu's wrinkled forehead wrinkled even deeper.
He put down the wine jug, gritted his teeth, took out a small cloth bag from his arms and handed it to Sun Enqi.
"His seventh uncle, thank you for your concern."
Sun En pinched it and said, ten taels?
A smile appeared on his face.
"I'll take Da Wang to have a look tomorrow."
"I hope the old man doesn't have such a big appetite."
Sun Enwu's face immediately broke into a smile: "Da Wang, thank your Uncle Qi quickly! This child is just too introverted!"
The dark, thin and dull young man whispered "Thank you, Uncle Seventh".
Sun Enqi waved his hand with a big face: "Brothers from the same clan, you don't have to be polite."
Sun Enwu continued to thank him repeatedly and kept pouring wine and urging people to drink.
In the corner, Chen Mu squinted his eyes and admired Yutao's figure.
"Sun Dawang? Tsk tsk tsk ..."
"That's a really auspicious name."
……
In the north city of Nanyang Prefecture, opposite the south gate is Jingxingfang.
As it is close to Taipei City, there is a lot of traffic. Jingxingfang faces a row of houses facing Taipei City, all of which are shops of various kinds.
Opposite the South Gate of Taipei City is the Ming Yi Tea House.
At this moment, many strong men are queuing up at the door to register.
This is the Tangshan Army Recruiting Office.
There are several long tables on the first floor of the teahouse, and behind the tables are people responsible for reviewing registrations.
Tangshanying offers high pay and good treatment, so many people are vying to sign up.
It is common for people to secretly give money to the audit and registration personnel.
Xing Laoliu sat in a corner of the teahouse, glanced at his colleague working the cashier, and shook his head.
He was assigned to work as a clerk in the Dingyou Camp of civilians.
They recruit laborers who are paid little but do a lot of work.
Few people signed up, and no one paid money.
"If you have the life to make money, you also have to have the life to spend it." Xing Laoliu thought quietly.
Old Man Ding is a lesson for us.
He provoked a group of ruthless thieves and made a mistake.
He was stripped naked and hung on a flagpole, his face was gone, and his money was also gone.
He picked up the cup and took a sip of the warm tea, then picked up the illustrated book and enjoyed it leisurely.
"If no one sends money, there will be no trouble."
"The coolie camp has no money, but it's safe!"
Just when we were watching the exciting part, a fat figure with big ears and a big head appeared.
"Chef Sun, have you purchased the supplies?" Xing Laoliu greeted with a smile.
This is his colleague, the chef of Dingyou Camp.
"We are in need of a vegetable cutter."
"It just so happens that I have a nephew from a wealthy family. He knows me well, is honest and simple, and is hardworking and able to endure hardships."
"Please take the trouble to help me with the registration, Mr. Xing." Sun Enqi said as he quietly handed Xing Laoliu two taels of silver.
Xing Laoliu couldn't help but smile on his thin, dark old face.
Hardworking? Nephew? Know everything about him?
That means you have a clean record.
You can collect this money, and you can do so with a clear conscience and without any consequences!
He looked up at the young man behind Sun Enqi with a smile and waved at him kindly.
"Come here, young man, come here and I'll help you climb..."
Without saying a word, he froze where he was.
Chen Mu walked forward with a smile: "Hello, Mr. Xing, my name is Sun Dawang, please register me."
Xing Laoliu's neck turned slowly as if it was rusted.
He stared at Chef Sun fiercely: "Nephew? Know everything about him?"
"Yes." Sun Dawang didn't understand.
Right? If this is right, I'll chop off my head and let you kick it like a ball!
