Mo Xingyu walked in the inn room, staring blankly at the blackened mosquito net above his head, and his nephew Mo Tao's pleading voice sounded in his ears.

"Second uncle, you can eat something! You haven't eaten for three days, and you're going to get sicker. ”

Mo Xingyu turned a deaf ear and did not move.

Mo Tao went from confusion to despair, and his young face was full of despair.

What happened these days, the second uncle was devastated, he couldn't afford to be sick, and he hadn't eaten a drop of rice for three days, so could they still go home.

"Guest officer, you already owe two days' room money, and if you don't pay the money, get out." The knock on the door sounded at the right time, and the two days of unpaid rent had already made the shopkeeper change his face.

Desperate, sick, penniless, and about to live on the streets......

Or die in a foreign land.

Thinking of this, Mo Tao lowered his head, a tear slipped to the ground, and the gruel in his hand was poured out.

Who said that men don't flick when they have tears, but they haven't reached the sad place

At this time, Mo Xingyu only had a trace of movement, moved his bloody lips that were about to dry up, took a gold ring on his finger that was not thick and handed it to his nephew, gasped and said: "You take this seriously, take my coffin home, the second uncle can't go back, the family depends on you, you must be careful in the future, don't be easily deceived like the second uncle." ”

As he spoke, two lines of muddy tears flowed down his yellowed old face with a violent cough.

"Second uncle, I can't do it, please get better." With a bang, the coarse porcelain bowl fell to the ground, and the soup inside spilled all over the ground, but Mo Tao ignored it and cried in front of the bed.

When he was young, he had been living under the wings of his second uncle, and he first realized the ruthlessness of the world, and he couldn't support a family business.

"I've written to ask me to go back to my hometown, and someone will come to our rescue." Mo Tao burst into tears and said their last glimmer of hope.

As long as someone comes to help them, he believes that everything will be fine and the second uncle will be cured.

"It's useless, no one will come, and no one will want to help us." Mo Xingyu shook his head weakly, and coughed more urgently with his voice.

The reason why he was desperate was that he knew that no one would come to his hometown at all, and even if he received their distress letters, those cold-blooded and ruthless clansmen would only try their best to get money from them, and they would not lend assistance to them in distress at all.

If it weren't for the people who ate his flesh and drank his blood, but chose to stand on the opposite side of him and betray him when his business was in trouble, how could he have gone away to seek a way out, let alone die in a foreign land today.

A pack of ungrateful, white-eyed wolves.

Mo Tao's eyes darkened, he also understood this truth, but when the time came, who could he ask for help.

"Alas!" Mo Xingyu sighed, and weakly snapped his nephew's hand and said: "You have to rely on yourself to be a man, you can't do things that violate your conscience, a man walks in the world, and he has to stand up to the sky." ”

"Second uncle......" Mo Tao was sad in his heart, and at this time, the second uncle did not forget to teach him.

"After I die, you send the coffin back to your hometown for burial, and then you leave! The world is big, and there is always a place for you. Looking at his young nephew, Mo Xingyu was still not at ease, he was young and simple, he couldn't deal with the wolf-like clansmen in his hometown.

"Second uncle......" Mo Tao's mind was blank, and he only cried.

"Don't cry, don't cry......" Mo Xingyu comforted, trying to endure the fishy sweetness in his throat, and staring blankly at the mosquito net above his head, which was more black than white.

In the end, I am not reconciled!

He has suffered and been tired in this life, but also glorious, he has traveled alone, and the accumulation of karma has promised a large family, although the clansmen are not so satisfactory, but in general it is still good.

I didn't think he would fall short here.

The Xiao family's fruit wine is quite famous in the south, it is a good thing, the high profits make him excited, and the original livelihood is excluded and suppressed by others, it is really impossible to do it, he finally decided to change his path after several thoughts.

smashed the pot and sold iron to gather 130,000 silver and went north to Pingcheng, desperately trying to find a way to survive on the Xiao family's fruit wine.

This life road is not his last road.

Who knows, before he arrived in Pingcheng, he met the steward of the Xiao family at Hechun Wharf, and after a few contacts, he used his 130,000 taels of silver to buy 10,000 jars of wine.

Thirteen taels of silver for one jar, which is too worth the profit of one hundred taels of silver for one jar.

Before he could rejoice, the dock porter accidentally broke a jar of fruit wine and let him fall into a place of no return.

There was nothing wrong with the hundreds of jars of fruit wine at the beginning, and the rest were all fakes.

He fell for it hook line and sinker~

At that time, the steward of the Xiao family, surnamed Yi, had already gone to the empty building, and he rushed to Pingcheng overnight, slept in the open air, and got drenched in the rain, and fell ill in a fit of anger.

When he arrived in Pingcheng, he found that he didn't even know where the Xiao family was.

In the end, he was unwilling to go back like this, so he had to wait in Pingcheng for a few days, and his illness became more and more serious, but fortunately, he finally remembered the four seas dart line.

He didn't recognize the Xiao family, but he knew about the Four Seas Dart Shop, and it was through the Four Seas Dart Store that he learned about the Xiao family in the first place.

After several contacts, he finally found Jiang Sihai, the big boss of the Four Seas Dart Company.

However, this made him even more desperate. Because Jiang Sihai confirmed that except for the previous hundred jars of fruit wine and canned food that were genuine products of the Xiao family, the rest were all fakes, and Jiang Sihai gave him all kinds of proofs, this batch of goods did not come from the Xiao family at all.

130,000 taels of silver, all of them were bought a batch of garbage.

He must have been dizzy at the time, and easily believed the man named Yi Feng.

And Yi Feng, Jiang Sihai told him that he had gone to the capital two months ago, and how could he appear in Pingcheng ten days ago.

Mo Xingyu didn't believe it until he saw Yi Feng's portrait from Jiang Sihai's hands.

Lost his soul and walked out of the four seas dart line, his mind was blank, he couldn't even hear the voice outside his body clearly, he only knew that this matter was not to blame on the Xiao family at all, it was he who was deceived by someone because he had no eyes and no beads.

In the end, he chose to report to the official, in an unfamiliar place where the government is the only protection for their suffering, he pinned his hopes on the government, but unfortunately, to this day, the official who accepted his only money did not give him any reply.

'Knock, knock......' The knock on the door started again, alarming the two people in the room who were silent and sad.

Is it the guy who came to chase them away?

Mo Tao's face turned pale, and he tightly usurped the ring in his hand, which was the only property they had now.

"Two guest officers, come out! Someone has already paid for you. "It's the voice of the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper outside the door, from the vicious words just now to the gentle voice that makes people's scalps tingle, makes people understand the truth of what it means to be rich is an uncle.
