"Brother, please wait a moment."
The panic in Qiu Yongkang's eyes had disappeared. He calmly asked the man to wait for him, "I'll take the cotton robe back."
"It just so happens that I don't have any clothes. Give it to me!"
The man didn't stand on ceremony; he grabbed Qiu Yongkang's new jacket and put it on shamelessly.
Qiu Yongkang frowned slightly, his eyes flashing with a fierce light.
"Let's go. What are you looking at? Do I need eight carriages to invite you over?"
The man saw Qiu Yongkang standing there and looking at him. He raised his eyebrows and ordered him in an unfriendly tone.
"No need."
Qiu Yongkang took a deep breath and followed him into the alley.
"Yongkang."
Jiang Laoqi had just returned with a cart of coal. He spoke with Ji Shuisheng outside the city gate and was delayed for a while. When he entered the city, he came to Qiu Yongkang to hand over the accounts.
