As a man, I've never done this for anyone before in my entire life.

No wonder he enlisted in the Southern army. Qing'er went through all sorts of hardships to expand her business there as well.

These two people, for each other, are both giving their all.

Zuo Junmo felt a surge of admiration in his heart.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

A tinge of envy.

Then he felt a pang of disappointment as well.

The banquet was held in a warm and harmonious atmosphere.

After a satisfying meal, they called for the waiter to set up the drinking table and replace the tea with freshly brewed ones.

Here is your text translated to English: Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Left Junmo just asked Yang Ruqing about her purpose.

Yang Ruqing first took out a red envelope and handed it over with both hands.

What is this?

Looking at the red envelope that was handed to him, Zuo Junmo raised an eyebrow.

Yang Ruqing giggled. “Brother Zuo, you're really a forgetful person! This is your bonus, remember what we agreed on!”

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Zuo Junmo smiled, "You little girl, you're serious?"

Yang Ruqing said seriously: "Public is public, private is private. This bonus, Brother Zuo must continue to take it. We have a long-term cooperation and make money together!"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Left Junmo couldn't resist Yang Ruoheng, so he had to accept it.

"Brother Zuo, why don't you take a look at the amount inside?" she asked again.

Silver is more abundant and inconvenient to carry.

She then exchanged it for silver notes and sent them to him, which was convenient for everyone.

Left Junmo smiled cheerfully and, under her strong insistence, truly pulled it out to take a look.

"Little Qing'er is truly amazing. Doing business with her, Elder Brother Zuo doesn't lose out at all!"

"From now on, you still have to take care of me, Big Brother Left…"

A humorous remark made the three of them laugh.

Zuo Junmo asked Yang Ruqing, "There must be more than just this. Tell me, what else is there?"

Yang Ruoqing smiled.

Only those who know me well are my dear brother, Zuó.

"Left Big Brother, to be honest with you, the reason we came to find you this time is that we have something we want you to help us with…"

Next, she briefly told Left Junmo about the quarry, Yang Huaming, Huang Laojiu, and the peddler.

Here is the translation: Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Upon hearing everything, a hint of surprise appeared on Zuo Junmo's face.

"I've heard of Guizi Ridge, but I've never been there."

"As a native, I never knew the quarry on Guizi Ridge was so filthy!" Zu Junmo said.

Yang Ruqing shook her head slightly.

Luofeng Tang picked up the conversation: "Places like quarries are usually where convicted prisoners gather."

"They are inherently wicked and vile creatures, so it's no surprise that they harbor filth." he said.

There are countless places like this in the world, but this time it involves Sunny's Uncle Four.

“Things might get so bad that it could harm not only Qing'er’s family but her entire village. So we can't just ignore this!” said Luo Fengtang.

Left Junmo nodded in agreement.

His gaze shifted to Yang Ruoqing.

"In that case, Qing'er, why have you come to me this time? What do you want me to do?" he asked.

Yang Ruqing sat up straight: “Left Brother, as a native, you have a wide network. I want to ask you to help me find out the truth first.”

Left Junmo said, "Sure."

He raised his hand and lightly patted twice.

A man dressed as a servant bowed and entered the room.

Left Junmo whispered a few words to the man, the man nodded, bowed again and retreated.

Then, Zuo Junmo said to Yang Ruqing and Luo Fengtang, "I have given orders on this matter. Now we just wait for the results."

Yang Ruqing smiled faintly.

Left Junmo does things, truly swift and decisive.

Zuo Junmo then looked at the two of them and said, "It's rare for you to come here once. Let me play the role of a good host this time. The guest rooms have been prepared for you by my orders. After a short rest, you can go back to your rooms to rest."

Yang Ruqing and Luofeng Tang exchanged a glance.

Both of them stood up at the same time.

Yang Ruqing said, "Brother Zuo, you're being too enthusiastic, aren't you? You even covered food and lodging?"

Left Junmo smiled and waved his hand: "This is nothing."

Luo Fengtang then clasped his hands in a fist and said: "In that case, many thanks to the Left Estate Master."

“Wind Tang, little brother, things are serious.”

The next morning.

Yang Ruqing had just gotten up, and Luofeng Tang, who had finished washing up, came over from the next room to serve her.

He brought her the facial cleanser and then hurried to the backyard kitchen to get breakfast.

Breakfast was simple congee with small dishes, plus a steamer of crab roe buns.

Two people sat opposite each other, concentrating on their porridge when Zuo Junmo arrived.

Just happened to see Luò Fēng Táng using chopsticks to pick out the crab roe from a steamed bun and feed it into Yáng Ruò Qīng's mouth.

This is the end of a paragraph.

"Um... did I come at a bad time?"

He awkwardly raised his hand, made a fist, and put it by his mouth while smiling and asking.

The two people at the table turned their heads together.

Yang Ruqing blushed slightly.

Luo Fengtang, however, calmly put down his chopsticks, rose to his feet, and walked toward Zuo Junmo.

"Master Zuo, have you had breakfast yet? Why don't you join me for a meal?"

Luo Fengtang issued an invitation to Zuo Junmo.

Yang Ruqing, seeing this, also invited, "Brother Zuo, you just sit down and have some. There's a lot, enough for the three of us."

Zuo Junmo's eyes flashed, and he nodded readily: "Very well, then I shall obey."

After Zuo Junmo sat down, Luo Fengtang went downstairs to add a set of bowls and chopsticks.

Here, Yang Ruqing asked Zuo Junmo, "Has the investigation yielded any results yet?"

Zuo Junmo said, "I have sent people to infiltrate the quarry last night. The results will be available today."

“That’s good.” she said.

Soon, Luofeng Tang brought the bowls and chopsticks back.

Three people had breakfast together.

At this time, it was the man dressed as a servant from yesterday who came to look for Zu Junmo again.

The attendant hurried in, and whispered something to Zuo Junmo.

Upon hearing this, the genuine tea master Zuo Junmo frowned.

"Let him come in and answer." Zuo Junmo said.

After the attendant left, he soon led in a man covered in blood.

Zuo Junmo glanced at the bloodstains on the man in front of him, his face cold and composed as he asked, "Did the mission fail?"

The man clasped his fists, lowered his eyebrows, and said solemnly: "Report to the master, the information is wrong, we have fallen into the enemy's ambush!"

Zuo Junmo glanced at Yang Ruqing, who frowned in response.

Damn it, did the dead merchant really lie?

Zuo Junmo withdrew his gaze and asked the attendant again.

In the following report by her attendant, Yang Ruqing was informed.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

This trip, Zuo Junmo sent five people to infiltrate the quarry under the cover of night.

The hidden route was followed according to what the peddler provided.

>

But when these five people disguised themselves and infiltrated the quarry, they were attacked by an unknown force.

Five people went there, four died there.

>

The one who escaped just now is also heavily wounded.

“Can you see what the other party is like?” Left Junmo asked again.

Like a quarry, many of the laborers who work there are prisoners.

Therefore, the authorities would station some officials or guards along the border to keep watch.

Moreover, the quarry itself will have people to maintain order.

These people are all thugs.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The person who returned recounted the scene in detail, shaking their head.

"Looking at the opponent's punches and kicks, as well as those traps and mechanisms, it doesn't seem like ordinary thugs. They are ruthless, and I barely managed to defend myself." He replied honestly.
