Chapter XXXIII, The Profiteer
Mo Jiuwu looked at the water stains on Long Junmo's body embarrassedly, and slowly put down the teacup, "Ah! That one...... I remember that I still have some business, so I won't bother you and take my leave. ”
After Mo Jiuwu finished speaking, he turned around and wanted to run out of the door, but when Mo Jiuwu was about to run to the door, the door was suddenly closed, Mo Jiuwu was stunned and looked at the door that closed for no reason, and there was a burst of scolding in his heart, and he turned his head to look at Long Junmo, with a burst of flattery on his face.
"Haha...... The hero is so internal, this is a closed door in the air! Mo Jiuwu stretched out his thumb and praised.
"Say, how to pay?" Long Junmo ignored Mo Jiuwu's sycophants and said directly.
"Compensation? Wouldn't you just stick some water on it? Just rub it off. ”
"Do you think it's clean?" Long Junmo looked at the wet piece of his clothes, which had been soaked with tea and dyed the color of tea.
"Ouch...... There's a saying that doesn't call not fighting, not knowing each other! You see, we also have a friendship of one or two silver, right? Say what you don't pay for, right? Haha......" Mo Jiuwu said nonsense under the guise of a face.
But Long Junmo didn't answer, and he didn't admit it.
Mo Jiuwu looked at Long Junmo, who was completely impersonal, and stopped pretending, sat directly opposite him, slapped the table, and said domineeringly: "Okay, if you lose, you will pay, let's say, how much do you want?" ”
"One thousand taels!"
Mo Jiuwu, who was drinking tea, heard this, and squirted out the tea he had just drunk in one gulp. looked at Long Junmo in shock, and said angrily: "What about robbery!" Isn't it just a piece of clothing? Wouldn't you just stick some water on it? What does it cost a thousand taels? The lion opened his mouth, let me tell you, you don't rely on yourself to help me, you can not ask for it offline. ”
Long Junmo looked at Mo Jiuwu who was scolding at him with his waist in front of him, and a smile flashed in his eyes.
"This dress is woven from the silk spit by the snow silkworms that grow on the snowy mountains, and the patterns on it are sewn with gold threads, and it costs you a thousand taels, isn't it too much?" Long Junmo said lightly, looking like a profiteer.
Damn, it's really not too much to talk about it, but it's a thousand taels! O silver with white flowers! Mo Jiuwu felt a pain in his heart.
"That...... You say it's a snow silkworm? Who knows if what you're saying is true or not? I tell you, you are a profiteer and a disrupted economy in the market, and I tell you, don't think I'm a child and just bully. ”
"If you don't believe me, find someone to check it and know if what I said is true or false." Long Junmo said calmly.
Mo Jiuwu looked at Long Junmo, who was completely affectionate, his eyes rolled, and he began to cry: "Seventh prince, I know, you are just teasing me, you are not short of this money at all, but look at me, I am a child, I can't eat enough, where is a thousand taels, you look at me, my father doesn't hurt, my mother doesn't love it, I have no money!" After speaking, two tears were squeezed out.
Long Junmo looked at Mo Jiuwu in front of him, the corners of his mouth curled, and he looked at her interestingly.
"Okay, for the sake of you're still young, I'll ......" Long Junmo suddenly paused, looked at Mo Jiuwu on the opposite side with a treacherous look, smiled, and continued: "Then I'll ...... I'll give you a discount, nine hundred and ninety taels, and ten taels cheaper for you. ”
The smile on Mo Jiuwu's face suddenly froze, looking at Long Junmo's atmospheric appearance, he gritted his teeth and said, "Hehe...... Then I really have to thank you! ”
"You're welcome, then set a time, I'll let someone pick up the money."
"I don't have any money right now!"
"No money? That's a bit tricky! Well, for the sake of our upcoming marriage, you can write an IOU! Long Junmo looked at Mo Jiuwu and said.
Mo Jiuwu looked at Long Junmo, a fire was burning in his eyes, and he gritted his teeth and looked at Long Junmo, almost tearing him apart.
"Okay! I'll write to you, what about paper and pen? ”
Long Junmo looked at Mo Jiuwu and said with a smile: "Howling wind." ”
saw that the door was suddenly opened, Xiao Feng appeared at the door with a pen and paper, Xiao Feng walked into the room, put the pen and paper in front of Mo Jiuwu, and gestured with his hand: "Please!" ”
Mo Jiuwu glared at Xiao Feng, picked up the pen and began to write, staring at Long Junmo and Xiao Feng, the two masters and servants, while writing.
"Profiteers, dead profiteers!" Mo Jiuwu muttered.
After a while, Mo Jiuwu finally put down the pen, picked up the written IOU, and then threw it at Long Junmo.
"It's done, it's okay! Profiteer! Mo Jiuwu pouted.
Long Junmo took the IOU, looked at the scribbled words on it, raised his eyebrows, and then put it in his sleeve.
"That's fine, not bad." Long Junmo said.
"Cut, stingy, money-picking, and crippled, who will like you?" Mo Jiuwu muttered.
Long Junmo, who was on the other side, straightened his clothes, and the smile on his face disappeared, and his face turned cold, even more chilling.
Xiao Feng also looked at Mo Jiuwu with a murderous expression, and clenched the sword in his hand.
Noticing the sudden change in atmosphere, Mo Jiuwu also realized that she had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly explained: "That, I didn't mean that, I'm sorry." ”
Long Junmo looked at Mo Jiuwu deadly, as if he was holding back the anger in his heart.
"Howling Wind, get her off the ship."
"Yes."
Mo Jiuwu looked at Long Junmo with a gloomy face, and before he could speak, he was lifted by Xiao Feng by the collar and walked outside.
"Hey...... You let go of me, I'll go on my own, you ...... Such...... Strangled me, bastard...... "However, Mo Jiuwu was too short to touch the howling wind at all, and he was easily carried away."
For a while, Long Junmo was the only one left in the room, Long Junmo stretched out his left wrist, looked at a long red rope on his wrist, a burst of internal force surged, and the teacup on the table was instantly shattered.
On the deck, Qing Qing was bored waiting for Mo Jiuwu, but he heard Mo Jiuwu's insults, and then saw Mo Jiuwu being walked out by the collar.
"Miss, who are you, put my young lady down." Qingqing ran to Xiaofeng, pointed at Xiaofeng, and shouted.
Xiao Feng looked at it with disdain, and had no intention of putting Mo Jiuwu down at all.
"You...... You ......" Qingqing saw that Xiao Feng had no intention of putting Mo Jiuwu down, and suddenly pounced, grabbed Xiao Feng's arm and bit it down.
"Hiss......" Xiaofeng was startled, let go of the hand that grabbed Mo Jiuwu, looked at the neat row of tooth marks on his hand, and looked at Qingqing a little helplessly.
"You...... You are a girl, how can you bite a man's hand at will. Howling Wind accused, but the base of his ears grew red.
"Who...... Who told you to bully my young lady, if you ...... It's bullying my young lady again, I'm ...... I still bite you. Qingqing was a little flustered, and his voice stumbled.
"Who bullied your young lady?"
"You didn't bully? Then you still treated my young lady like that just now, what did you lie to me? Qingqing said with a disbelieving face.
"I really didn't, I just carried her, who told her to talk nonsense." Howling Wind said, his eyes dodging.
The two of them chatted enthusiastically, completely forgetting Mo Jiuwu who was sitting on the ground, looking at the two people in front of him, Mo Jiuwu had a black line on his face, and finally couldn't help but open his mouth.
"You ...... Otherwise, find a cool place to chat. ”
Sure enough, when Mo Jiuwu made this sound, the two of them suddenly reacted, and they both looked at each other with embarrassed expressions.
"Miss." Qingqing hurriedly helped Mo Jiuwu up from the ground and looked at Mo Jiuwu apologetically.
Mo Jiuwu got up, patted his clothes, looked at the redness at the base of Xiao Feng's ears, looked at Xiao Feng with a playful look, and pulled Qingqing to his side.
"Qingqing, I'll tell you! In the future, stay away from this person and the person inside, these two people...... Not a good man, profiteer! Mo Jiuwu shook his head and said to Qingqing with a bitter face.
Qingqing looked at Xiaofeng blankly and nodded.
"Hey...... Don't talk nonsense! Who isn't a profiteer? Xiao Feng looked at Qingqing and nodded, and somehow hurriedly refuted Mo Jiuwu's words.
"Isn't it? You have just cheated me for nine hundred and ninety taels of silver! What is not a profiteer! Qingqing...... Your young lady, I was miserable. Mo Jiuwu cried to Qingqing while replying to the howling wind.
"What! Nine hundred and ninety taels? Qingqing's face was dumbfounded, and there was anger in his eyes when he looked at Xiao Feng.
"You ...... You bully! I'm embarrassed to say it's not a profiteer! ”
Qingqing looked at Xiao Feng's eyes with hostility and isolation.
Xiao Feng looked at the scene in front of him, and suddenly he couldn't speak.
"Forget Qingqing, we won't quibble with them, and as soon as the ship docks, we'll leave." Mo Jiuwu said.
"Good!" Qingqing said directly.
Xiao Feng looked at Mo Jiuwu, who was quietly grimacing at him, looking like he had succeeded in his treacherous plan, and was speechless for a while.
Not long after, Xiao Feng walked into the house, looked at Long Junmo, and reported: "Lord Wang, the ship has docked, and the people have been sent away." ”
Long Junmo turned around, looked at Xiaofeng, whose face was as stinky as durian, and asked, "What happened?" ”
Xiao Feng thought for a moment, and still told Long Junmo what happened on the deck just now.
"Lord Wang, I have never seen a person like Mo Jiuwu, who is too capable of foolishness, saying that we are profiteers? Lord Wang, your dress is more than 1,000 taels, it's obviously cheap for her. Howling Wind grumbled with a disgruntled face.
After listening to Xiao Feng's narration, Long Junmo fell into deep thought, and after a while, he spoke leisurely, "Xiao Feng, what do you think is different about this Mo Jiu Dance?" ”
When Xiao Feng heard this, he was puzzled: "Lord Wang, are you doubting that this person is not the real Mo Jiuwu?" However, it is rumored that Mo Jiuwu has lived in Xiangfu for a long time and rarely appears in front of people, so before this, not many people have really seen her, but the entire capital knows that the fifth miss of Xiangfu is not only not good-looking, but also has a weak personality, but so far, except for some rumors about her appearance, it is true that many other places are not the same. Howling Wind said.
Long Junmo took out the IOU from his sleeve, looked at the scribbled handwriting on it, and instructed Xiao Feng: "You go and investigate, and investigate all the things related to Mo Jiuwu in the past two years." Long Xuyao suddenly gave me and her to marry, no matter what, to ensure that she would not get in the way of my affairs after entering the palace. ”
"Yes."
On the other side, Mo Jiuwu and Qingqing got down from Long Junmo's boat, but saw that the carriage that was originally parked on the shore had long since disappeared, thinking that Mo Qingya and Mo Hanyi had already gone back in advance.
"It's a big loss today, I owe nine hundred and ninety taels for no reason, Long Junmo, that bastard, profiteer." Mo Jiuwu was still a little angry.
"Miss, what are we going to do next?" Qingqing looked at Mo Jiuwu a little helplessly.
Looking at Qingqing's helpless expression, Mo Jiuwu comforted: "Don't worry, it's okay, we have a share of the Splendid Pavilion, and the money is still a little, and besides, I will take this money from the Prime Minister's Mansion." Mo Jiuwu said with a smile, as if he already had a plan.
At this time, Mo Jiuwu didn't realize that the route he was walking had unconsciously become more and more entangled with Long Junmo's............
