The next day.
Chu Ning waited for Gan Qiao.
Gan Qiao did come, and he came bearing gifts.
The gifts were worth dozens of taels, but what was important was that among them was a silver note worth "two hundred taels."
In accordance with his promise, Chu Ning ordered a table full of dishes to entertain Gan Qiao, and after a feast of wine, they called each other brothers and nearly ended up swearing brotherhood.
After Gan Qiao left, Chu Ning instinctively wanted to go to the backyard to change into his masked attire, luckily he caught himself in time.
After seeing off Gan Qiao, Chu Ning was about to go pick up his old aunt when he encountered an unexpected visitor.
A group of people had arrived.
Carying baskets and shouldering poles with various gifts, the leader was Liu Da.
"Lord Chu, these are gifts our Gang Leader instructed me to bring," Liu Da said.
