Becoming a Saint by Leisure Reading

Vol 4 Chapter 284: Chen Luo: I only have one great scholar accompanying me!

Leya City, Pingbo Pier.

Several dock porters sneaked up behind the cargo pile, watched vigilantly left and right, 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 is unabated. He stepped forward and snatched the one from his son, Chu Pingbo. Stacked the banknotes and looked at them one by one.

"Twelve..."

"Twelve..."

"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 sons!"

Chu Pingbo stepped forward to explain: "Dad, this is the money they saved..."

Chu Xiong took a cigarette and hit Chu Pingbo, cursing while smoking, "Of course I know this is their hard-earned money!"

"You bastard! You actually deceived your brother!"

"Do you know how much cargo they have to carry to earn a tael!"

"You bastard, you tortoise son, your little bastard, you have no **** when you give birth to a son..."

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, and stepped forward to hold Chu Xiong with all their hands and feet, Chu Pingbo rubbed the place where he was beaten, and muttered: "Father, you can really do it, except for yourself, Even the grandsons in the future scolded them together!"

"Bah, pah!" Chu Xiong spat three times on the ground, "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 won't cheat my brother's money. You guys, help me talk!"

The porters who hugged Chu Xiong immediately reacted and explained—

"Uncle Chu, no. Brother Chu wants to help us earn money."

"It's a line, a line, Big Brother Chu said that if you invest 12 taels this year, you will get it back next year with interest."

"Brother Chu said, make sure to make money!"

Chu Xiong's complexion became even more ugly. Holding a cigarette stick, he struggled to break free from everyone's blocking. He cursed loudly, "I am your mother!"

"It's not cheating money! Your grandmother! Let me go of all your shameless things, and I'll beat this **** to death today!"

Chu Pingbo also looked helpless: "What did you all explain!"

"Father, it's this, this..." After speaking, 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, "Your father is illiterate, you Don't fool me!"

Chu Pingbo looked at the shredded paper flying all over the sky, and wanted to cry without tears, and when he saw Chu Xiong who was swearing, he could only take out his trump card——

"Father, I'm not your own!"

Chu Xiong and everyone were stunned, and the scene was quiet.

Chu Pingbo hurriedly explained: "Dad, 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 ordinary people."

After Chu Xiong heard Chu Pingbo's words, he calmed down a little, 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.

"real?"

"Really! If you can't do it, I'll find another newspaper!"

Chu Xiong poured some tobacco into the smoke pot, Chu Pingbo quickly lit the smoke pot, 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, let's do this. Does not participate."

"Why?" Chu Xiong's eyes widened, "Father, are you afraid of those giants? It's alright, Lord Hou said he wouldn't announce his name, just give him a certificate. I know people, so I can secretly connect with you!"

Chu Xiong greeted everyone to sit down and sighed, "You guys...you're too young. Wuhou is too young. Do you really think that if you deal with a few giants, you can get the harbor up?"

Chu Pingbo looked surprised: "Otherwise?"

Chu Xiong took another sip on the cigarette holder: "Our harbour in Leyacheng 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 the smoke pot: "You all know the benefits of sea cargo. 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 in Leyacheng!"

"So, let's take a look."

When everyone heard Chu Xiong's words, they all fell silent.

At this time, Chu Xiong looked at Chu Pingbo again: "There is another matter."

"Father, what's the matter?"

"You son of a turtle, whose species is it!"

"Ah? Dad, listen to me, I... ah, Dad, don't fight, I'm my own... Ah! Dad, I was wrong... Ah, Dad, I... ah..."

……

The He Family Mansion.

Why don't you just sit in the backyard alone, pour yourself a drink, an old woman walks slowly, why don't you get up and salute quickly, "Mother."

The old woman nodded, sat across from why not, and said lightly, "Have you contacted your eldest brother?"

Why not pour a glass of wine for the old woman: "Let 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 didn't he 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."

Speaking of 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, thinking that he was in front of the general trend. I had to bow my 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 big trend by himself."

"It's like playing chess. Although we have the first move, he is 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 counterattack is different."

"Those inland families are naturally willing to sell their feelings."

Why don't you just nod your head: "Mother is right. That's why I ordered my elder brother to do it this time. The purpose is to shock the people and families in Leya City."

"Let him be like the sky outside Leya City, and no one responds in Leya City, it will be an empty space."

"After all, every family has a share in the group of Kraken soldiers under the elder brother!"

The old woman nodded slightly, and said again: "Remind your elder brother, don't hurt Wuhou. The Zhulin 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 the seafood. Let them not forget who kept it. Their way to make money!"

Why don't you just nod your head: "It's natural. If Big Brother can advance to the second rank like Mother, my family will be able to make a big step forward."

The old woman smiled lightly: "Don't worry, although your eldest brother is not your eldest brother, as long as I am here, he will still recognize the He family."

"My son doesn't dare to think blindly."

The old woman waved her hand casually, and her figure disappeared. .

Why not just raised his head and poured himself another glass of wine.

"My mother really loves eldest brother more." Why don't you sigh in your heart, "In the end, eldest 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!

……

When the sky was clear and the moon was bright, Chen Luo came to 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 the other party and immediately became happy.

This is one of the twenty great scholars 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.

Twenty great scholars of a hundred battles, and Wu Litao attracted eighteen in one breath.

If you get close, you can hear their arguments have nothing to do with building the harbor.

"Hey, can those sirens be eaten?"

"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's just that the city lord invited us to eat."

"It 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, you will take over a big revenge. 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 pointed to the sky, Xiang Jixuan knew that it was Wu Litao who was guarding in the dark, so he didn't say 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 trouble?"

Xiang Jixuan knew that Chen Luo was not asking himself what he said~www.wuxiamtl.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 lost. 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 is willing to give their lives?"

"Thirdly, that crocodile Jiao has the blood of the Canglong dragon, and it involves the Canglong family. No one wants to offend him."

"Fourth, interests dictate. What's wrong with pampering the people while 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'm being used as a knife by you."

The man bowed slightly, and said respectfully: "Master Hou is a famous weapon in the world. In the future, I will not dare to hold on to it. It just happened to be a meeting, and it is a blessing for me to wait for three lifetimes to be able to see the grandeur of Master Hou. "

"Well." 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..."
