Chapter 52: Find a rich wronged man
"Master, we don't have much money anymore. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info If this experiment is not successful, we will have to go out and make money again. A little boy in simple clothes looked at the Taoist priest in front of him and said with some worry.
This Taoist priest has a dark face and a very neat body. Even the clothes were torn with several holes. However, the whole person is very energetic.
"Hey, what about our money? Didn't I remember that I had just received 10,000 taels of silver from Wang Dahu? Say, did you secretly go to buy rock sugar gourds? The Taoist priest said without raising his head. At the same time, his eyes widened and he carefully observed the experiment in front of him.
Hearing this, Xiao Tong's face was stretched so long. You don't need to look at it to know that your master has entered the unreliable stage again.
Even if you take the money to buy a rock sugar gourd, how much money can you spend? Although, the rock sugar gourd is indeed quite delicious. Thinking of this, Xiao Tong also subconsciously wiped his mouth.
No, I was changed the subject by the master again. This master of his own, usually fine. However, once the experiment reaches a critical time, I will always devote myself to the experiment.
Sometimes, it is normal to go without drinking or eating for seven or eight days in a row. Even again, he fainted from hunger and fainted to death. It was also on that occasion that Xiao Tong saved this person and became his disciple.
"Master, Wang Dahu, it was all a month ago. In the past month, you have done more than 100 tests in a row, and you have purchased a full five taels of low-grade spirit stones alone, which is five thousand taels of silver. ”
"In addition, all kinds of precious materials, including steel, dark iron, extraterrestrial meteorite, etc., although they are not purchased much each time, they are scattered, and together, there are three thousand taels. Plus......" Xiao Tong was very serious, and said one by one while breaking his fingers.
Hearing this, the Taoist priest finally reacted. Then, he frowned and said, "Well, in this way, we have no money again." This time, where can I find someone to invest in me? The big family last time, but it took me a long time to convince him. This kind of big fat sheep is not easy to find. ”
"Master, almost all the big families in Jiangling City have been deceived by you, and the rest are either not easy to deceive or can't afford to offend. There is no home left, do we have to change places, change names, and start again? But where do you go? The boy looked up at the sky and said distressedly.
In the past few years, the child has followed the Taoist and has come from the north to the south. Every time the Taoist priest couldn't support it and failed the experiment, he would directly pat his ass and leave. As for the money invested by those big investors, it has also been wasted.
It is precisely because of this that the name has long been stinky. That's why I changed my city and changed my name. Moreover, in order to avoid those creditors, they have been fleeing to the south. Now, they have fled to Jiangling City in Jingzhou. Do you want to continue to flee south?
"To the south, if you continue to the south, you can only go to Changsha and Wuling, where Han and barbarians live together. Although it is more hidden, there are no big households, and even with my eloquence, it is estimated that I will not be able to attract much investment, which is really distressing. The Taoist priest shook his head and said.
However, just as the Taoist priest shook his head and complained, there was a bang, and the strange-shaped machine in front of him exploded again.
However, at this moment, the Taoist priest waved his right hand lightly, and a faint light curtain directly and steadily protected himself and the child. It's like watching fireworks for free, even though kids have seen them many times.
"Ah, did you fail again, and what was the reason for this failure? Is it a problem of materials, or is it a problem of thinking? ”
"No, I believe that since the steam engines of those mechanical worlds are useful, then in this world, I use spirit stones instead of power, and with materials such as dark iron and steel, I will definitely be able to create a 'real' qi engine." The Taoist priest firmly said. All of a sudden, the haze caused by the failure of the experiment just now was swept away.
"Ah, Master, in that case, where are we going next?" Xiao Tong said.
"Well, I'll think about it. If the train of thought is okay, it's a matter of money. I've got to find a big wrongdoer, a very rich big guy. Only this kind of person can always provide me with enough materials, so that there is a possibility of success. ”
"Tong'er, go and get the newspaper from the day before yesterday. That Wu Guogong, didn't he say that he wanted to recruit people? If the money given is enough, Ben Dao Ye will try to be a baron. ”
"By the way, get our outfits out. This time, whether it is eaten dry or drunk is up to this Wu Guogong. The Taoist said lightly.
……
Xujiazhuang, although the name here is Xujiazhuang, it is not actually a Zhuangzi, but a township. For generations, the head of the village has also been called the owner of the village.
"Daddy, I'm hungry again, I'm so hungry." An eleven or twelve-year-old half-year-old boy rubbed his round belly and said listlessly.
Hearing this, the old lady Xu on the side, that is, Xu Zhu's father, glanced at Xu Zhu helplessly. Then he smiled and said, "Okay, it'll be fine right away." ”
After speaking, the old lady also looked at the ancestral house. When I was young, there were all kinds of flowers and trees in this ancestral house.
Although it is not a precious type, it still has a history of hundreds of years. As a result, by now, all of them are gone.
At that time, the family was quite wealthy. At least, with hundreds of acres of land, you can also earn hundreds of taels of silver every year, which can be said to be without worrying about eating and drinking. At that time, he was still thinking that after his son was born, he must let him practice martial arts and get ahead.
However, since the birth of his son, the family's fortune has deteriorated. As for the reason, it's even simpler, Xu Zhutai can eat it.
Up to now, Xu Zhu can eat dozens of catties of meat at every meal. Once there is less, you will go hungry. If you go hungry for a long time, you will get sick. After all, it's his own son, how can he be willing to let him be hungry all the time.
Therefore, in order to support this gifted son, hundreds of acres of fertile land were sold. The flowers and plants in the ancestral house were sold. The gold and silver left by his father have long been spent.
However, despite this, by now, Xu Zhu is only eleven or twelve years old, what can I do!
Therefore, now, even this ancestral house is time to sell. As for the time when the money is spent again, you can only take one step and look at one step.
"The Xu family, the Xu family, your son is saved. You see, Wu Guogong said......"
