Becoming a Saint by Leisure Reading Chapter 284: Chen Luo: I only have one great scholar accompanying me!
Leya City, Pingbo Pier.
Several pier porters sneaked up behind the cargo pile, watched vigilantly from side to side, and then took out crumpled silver bills from their arms and handed them to one of the leaders.
"Brother Chu, this is my share!"
"This is my share, I saved it for half a year!"
"Brother Chu, this is mine!"
At this moment, an old voice sounded: "What are you doing?"
Everyone was startled, turned around, and saw an old-fashioned old man walking over with a tobacco pouch in his hand.
"Father..." When Big Brother Chu saw the old man, he lowered his head and shouted, and the others also respectfully called "Uncle Chu".
His name is Chu Xiong. He is the foreman of the Pingbo Wharf. He is well-known among these porters. Although he is in his sixties, his aura still remains strong. He stepped forward and snatched it from his son, Chu Pingbo. After passing the stack of silver notes, he looked at them one by one.
"Twelve taels..."
"Twelve taels..."
"Tsk tsk tsk, there are actually twenty taels..."
Chu Xiong glanced at the gang of young men in their early twenties: "I can't tell, I'm all rich boys!"
Chu Pingbo stepped forward to explain: "Dad, this is the money they saved..."
Chu Xiong took a cigarette and hit Chu Pingbo, scolding while smoking, "Of course I know this is their hard-earned money!"
"You bastard! You actually lied to your brother!"
"Do you know how much they have to carry to earn a tael!"
"You bastard, you tortoise son, your little bastard, your son has no asshole..."
Chu Pingbo shouted while hiding: "Dad, stop scolding, you have scolded yourself. You guys, come and stop me!"
The porters who were already stunned did not react. They stepped forward and grabbed Chu Xiong. Chu Pingbo rubbed the place where he was beaten and muttered: "Father, you can really do it. In addition to myself, even my grandson in the future also scolded it!"
"Bah ah!" Chu Xiong spat on the ground three times, "You unconscionable, I ask you, did you owe something outside and came to cheat your brother's hard-earned money!"
Chu Pingbo looked helpless: "Father, no matter how wicked I am, I will never cheat my brother's money. You guys, help me talk!"
Those porters who hugged Chu Xiong reacted immediately and explained—
"Uncle Chu, no. Brother Chu wants to help us earn money."
"It's ah, ah, buddy Chu said that if you invest 12 taels this year, you will get it back next year, and there will be interest."
"Brother Chu said, make sure to make money!"
Chu Xiong's face was even more ugly. Holding a cigarette stick, he struggled to break free from everyone's blocking. He cursed: "I am your mother!"
"This is not a scam! Your grandmother! Let me go of you shameless thing, I will kill this scumbag today!"
Chu Pingbo also looked helpless: "What did you all explain!"
"Father, it's this, this..." After saying that, Chu Pingbo took out a draft newspaper from his arms and handed it to Chu Xiong. Chu Xiong took the newspaper and smashed it to pieces, "I don't think you are. Literacy, you don't fool me!"
Chu Pingbo looked at the shreds of paper flying all over the sky and wanted to cry without tears, and when he saw Chu Xiong who was scolding and scolding, he could only take out his trump card——
"Father, I'm not your own!"
Chu Xiong and everyone were stunned for a moment, and the scene was quiet.
Chu Pingbo hurriedly explained: "Father, that is the prospectus of Leya Harbor. It says that it is 10 taels of silver per share. The principal will be refunded at the end of the year, and then dividends will be collected every year. Isn't this a business that doesn't lose money? ?"
"There is a print of Wuhou on it. Wuhou will never lie to us little people."
When Chu Xiong heard Chu Pingbo's words, he calmed down a little bit, twisted left and right, Chu Pingbo signaled to everyone, and then everyone let go. Chu Xiong picked up the cigarette stick, Chu Pingbo was about to run subconsciously, then Chu Xiong just took a sip on his mouth and squatted down.
"Really?"
"Really! If you can't do it, I'll find another newspaper!"
Chu Xiong poured some tobacco into the cigarette pot, Chu Pingbo lit the cigarette pot quickly, Chu Xiong slammed his mouth a few times and let out a puff of green smoke, and then said slowly: "Return the money to the big guy, We are not involved in this."
"Why?" Chu Xiong's eyes widened, "Father, are you afraid of those big and powerful families? It's alright, Lord Hou said he would not announce his name, just give a certificate. I know people, so I can pick up on them secretly. !”
Chu Xiong greeted everyone to sit down and sighed, "You guys...you're too young. Wuhou is also too young. Do you really think that if you deal with a few giants, you'll be able to get the harbor up?"
Chu Pingbo looked surprised: "Otherwise?"
Chu Xiong took another sip on the cigarette holder: "Our Leya City seaport has been abandoned, so why are there so many seafood on the market every year?"
Chu Pingbo was stunned and looked at Chu Xiong: "Father, what do you mean..."
Chu Xiong tapped the bottom of his foot with a smoke pot: "You all know the benefits of marine goods. Therefore, in addition to land-based enemies, there are also sea-based enemies!"
"I heard a big man say that behind those people at sea, there are big forces that we don't want to provoke!"
"So, let's take a look."
Everyone fell silent when they heard Chu Xiong's words.
At this time, Chu Xiong looked at Chu Pingbo again: "There is another matter."
"Dad, what's the matter?"
"You son of a turtle, whose species is it!"
"Ah? Dad, listen to me, I... ah, Dad, stop beating, I'm my own... Ah! Dad, I was wrong... ah, Dad, I... ah..."
…
The He Family Mansion.
Why don't you sit alone in the backyard, pour yourself a drink, and an old woman walks slowly, why don't you get up quickly and salute: "Mother."
The old woman nodded, sat opposite, and said lightly, "Have you contacted your elder brother?"
Why not pour a glass of wine for the old woman: "Let the housekeeper Yu send a letter. My brother said some time ago that he was bored in Bihai and wanted to go ashore for a walk."
The old woman took a sip of wine and said, "Is there any danger?"
Why don't you shake his head: "According to the report, this time the Wuhou brought a Confucian scholar who had just been promoted to accompany him. He must think that Leyacheng is not in danger."
Having said this, why not sigh: "It's the son who underestimates the enemy. At first, I thought that Wuhou was just a little more noble and famous, so I regarded him as an ordinary sage disciple and thought he In the face of the general trend, he had to bow his head. After all, back then, when King Jing was still the heir, he also tried his best to protect the Cangwu shipping, and he still failed to achieve his wish.”
"But I didn't expect him to be famous for less than half a year, and he actually has such a big influence, and he can create a general trend by himself."
"It's like playing chess. Although we have the first move, he is very unreasonable and keeps counting. This is something my son never thought of."
The old woman shook her head: "It's not the same. King Jing wanted the entire shipping line back then, but this Marquis only needs to be in Leya, and the intensity of the counterattack is different."
"Those inland families are naturally willing to sell their favor."
Why don't you just nod your head: "Mother is right. That's why this time I ordered my eldest brother to do it. The purpose is to shock the people and families in Leya City."
"Let him be like the sky outside Leya City, and there will be no response in Leya City."
"After all, every family has a share in the group of siren soldiers under the elder brother!"
The old woman nodded slightly and said again: "Remind your elder brother, don't hurt Wuhou. The bamboo forest line is a little unreasonable."
"Your eldest brother is at the critical moment of promotion, and needs a lot of resources. After this time, tell those families that I will give another 10% of the share of seafood. Let them not forget, yes Who saved their way of making a fortune!"
Why don't you nod your head: "It's natural. If my eldest brother can advance to the second rank like my mother, my family can make a big step forward."
The old woman smiled lightly: "Don't worry, your eldest brother is not your eldest brother, but as long as I am here, he will still recognize the family."
"My son doesn't dare to think blindly."
The old woman waved her hand casually, and the figure disappeared. .
Why not just raised his head and poured himself another glass of wine.
"My mother really loves my elder brother even more." Why not sigh in his heart, "In the end, elder brother and mother are one family."
No one knows that the Great Sage Crocodile Jiao, who overturned the river in the sea, is actually his mother's illegitimate child!
…
The sky is clear and the moon is bright, and Chen Luo arrives at the abandoned harbor in Leya City.
A man dressed as a master craftsman greeted him: "Master Hou, why are you here? It's too dangerous."
Chen Luo glanced at each other and immediately became happy.
This is one of the 20 Great Confucianists who stayed in Dongcang City.
Chen Luo looked around again, and the other master craftsmen who were carefully studying the terrain were all disguised as great scholars.
Of the 20 great scholars in battle, Wu Litao attracted 18 in one breath.
If you get close, you can hear their arguments have nothing to do with building the harbor.
"Hey, can those sirens eat?"
"Why can't you eat it? It's just a fish. I tell you, if the Shaluo family hadn't become allies, I would like to get one to eat."
"I heard that some of them have the blood of the dragon family, would they have violated Yun Daru's taboo!"
"This... what are you afraid of, it is said that the city owner invited us to eat."
"Makes sense!"
Chen Luo pretended not to hear their intentional voices, and walked to a tall stone tablet. On one side of the stone tablet, the names of various families were densely engraved, and each name had a pattern behind it.
This is the clan seal of each family. Generally, if you use each other's clan seal without permission, that is to take over a big feud. Therefore, the family seal is engraved, which also shows the authenticity of the support of each family on the stone tablet.
Xiang Jixuan sat beside the stone tablet, looked at Chen Luo, and said hoarsely, "Master Hou, leave this to us, you can go back and rest in peace."
Chen Luo raised his finger to the sky, Xiang Jixuan knew that it was Wu Litao who was guarding in the dark, so he didn't say any more.
Chen Luo looked up at the tall stele and sighed: "There are sixteen great scholars in Leya City, three of them are of the second rank, how could they let that crocodile make waves?"
Xiang Jixuan knew that Chen Luo was not asking himself what he said~IndoMTL.com~ He saw the stranger behind Chen Luo wearing a hat, and a strange voice came from under the hat.
"One, the sea is vast, and the crocodile will flee if it is not attacked. No one dares to go deep into the blue sea to hunt and kill."
"Secondly, people are unbalanced, and they are all the ancestors of their own family. Who would be willing to die?"
"Thirdly, that crocodile Jiao has the blood of the Canglong dragon, and it involves the Canglong family, and no one wants to offend him."
"Fourth, interest dictates. What's wrong with suffering the common people and enjoying the wealthy? Even my family has benefited a lot from it."
Chen Luo chuckled lightly and squinted at the man behind him: "You dare to speak. So I was used by you as a knife."
The man bowed slightly and said respectfully, "The famous weapon of the Lord in the world, in the future, I will not dare to hold on to it. It just happens to be the right time. I can see the grandeur of Lord Hou, and I will wait for three lifetimes. Good luck."
"Yes." Chen Luo nodded, "If you can talk, talk more."
At this moment, a dark cloud covered the bright moon, and the sound of the waves on the sea hurried.
Xiang Jixuan stood up, looked at the dark sea, and said, "Here..."
