Chapter 240: Nothing Accomplishes, and Empty Branches

Xiao Qi was a little embarrassed when he heard this, and now he even began to sweat red on his forehead.

"My father died early, my mother was sick in bed all the year round, and my younger brother was young, so he relied on me to make money alone. ”

Satsuki was a little numb when she heard this, she felt that her situation was even more difficult, but she could only be self-reliant, and there was no one to turn to.

And the problem she has to solve now is really very difficult, even if she really has a seven-trick exquisite heart, I am afraid it will be difficult to solve.

But her kindness was still there, she didn't say anything, she took the Kong Ming lock in Xiao Zhi's hand, and instantly turned it into six wooden strips, "You don't have to share a penny from me, and you don't have to say that I taught you." ”

Xiao Qi bowed deeply to Xiao Yue very gratefully.

Just then, a gray guy walked over.

Xiao Yue fixed his eyes and saw that this person was the person who greeted them at the gate in the morning.

Xiao Qi bent over him and said respectfully, "Brother Xiaomu is good!"

Xiao Mu nodded and said casually, "Get up." Then he said to Xiao Yue, "Childe, please come with me." ”

Xiao Yue knew that this person should take her to see Yuan Chenhao, so she sorted out her mood, hid her thoughts, and walked through many strange buildings to a hillside.

This hillside is full of peach trees, perhaps because of the low temperature in the mountain, the peach trees elsewhere have borne fruit, and the peach blossoms here have not yet been planted, and it is the time when the flowers are in full bloom.

There is an inconspicuous stone path underneath the peach blossoms, which stretches upwards in a zigzag manner.

"Childe, the distinguished guest has arrived, he is in the thatched hut on the mountainside, and the small one will not accompany the childe. ”

Satsuki walked along the stone path and shuttled under the peach trees.

She thinks that these peach trees are peculiar, the peach trees in other places have been built, they are very short, and it is easy to pick peaches, and the peach trees here are so high, so how can they pick the fruit when it is time to harvest.

But before she could think through the question, she saw a flat land in the middle of the peach grove, and in the middle of the flat land there was a waterhole, and a thatched house stood next to the pool.

Xiao Yue saw Yuan Chen Hao wearing a dark robe from a distance, standing by the waterhole, looking at the reflection in the water in a daze.

When Xiao Yue was only ten steps away from him, he didn't raise his head, and said softly, "You're here." ”

Xiao Yue felt that there was a sense of slaughter in him today, so he didn't go any further, and just replied softly, "En." ”

Yuan Chenhao said coldly: "I heard that you have a new method?"

"Yes. ”

"Tell me about it. ”

Yuan Chenhao didn't raise his head from beginning to end, but Xiao Yue could feel the cold aura emanating from his body.

"The imperial court won't let us run a bank, so we'll do it ourselves. ”

"How do you do it yourself?"

"I'm going to find a few banks and let them join forces to set up a bank-like store. ”

"How sure are you that they'll want you to listen to you?"

"I'm not sure they'll listen to me, but I'm sure they'll be willing to make money. ”

Hearing this, Yuan Chenhao looked up at her, and asked with a sharp look in his eyes, "Do you want to earn even the silver of the imperial court?"

Xiao Yue heard his tone a little provocative, she said unconvinced: "You can't blame me for this, who makes those old men in the court unwilling? What can I do, otherwise, Your Majesty, you can find a way, the grass people are really powerless." ”

After saying that, Satsuki turned around and left.

Yuan Chenhao looked at her back and wanted to call her, but in the end he didn't shout.

In fact, as soon as Xiao Yue turned around, he had been hoping that Yuan Chenhao would stop him, but he didn't expect that he would walk out of his sight, and he hadn't stopped himself yet.

Suddenly, Xiao Yue found that she was so impulsive, she was a big loss, she thought that Yuan Chenhao would agree with her idea, but she didn't expect him to oppose it, and she still left by herself, so the establishment of Yinzhuang this time, is it just like this.

In addition, this time I originally wanted to ask about "On the Dao", but it seems that the bamboo basket was empty.

The more Xiao Yue thought about it, the more frustrated she became, she walked on the stone path, but she didn't take a few steps, the wooden thorns on the soles of her feet hurt her heart, she sat on the ground in a fit of anger, holding her head in distress, thinking about how to explain to Hu Changqi about the cancellation of the establishment of Yinzhuang, and thinking about what excuse she should find to ask Yuan Chenhao about "On the Dao".

I don't know how long it took, but Satsuki noticed that a peach blossom was slowly falling, and she caught it with her hand.

Only then did she realize that this peach grove was a bit strange, because there were basically no fallen leaves and fallen flowers on the ground.

When she felt that the soles of her feet were not so painful, she slowly stood up again, left the stone path, and walked towards the depths of the peach forest.

Satsuki hadn't walked through this kind of loose ground for a long time, and she felt like she was about to fall apart after walking for a while, but she always felt that something in front of her was attracting her, so she kept moving forward.

It didn't take long for Satsuki to notice that the peach grove had begun to change, and there were no peach blossoms on the branches of the nearby peach trees, and there were no green fruits, and the bare peach trees looked a little scary.

What made her even more frightened was that under this bare peach tree, there was a tall mound of graves.

When Xiao Yue approached the mound nervously, an old man dressed in white suddenly appeared in front of her right.

She was so scared that her legs went limp.

"You... Are you a human or a ghost?"

The old man didn't pay attention to Satsuki, he saw the mound, his face was full of nostalgia, and after a while, he turned around and saw Satsuki, and immediately changed to a hippie smiley expression.

"You kid, why are you wandering around in other people's houses?"

"Uh... I.... ”

"You kid, you're so handsome, it's a shame to be a boy. ”

"Uh... I... ”

"The old man is so bored alone, child, would you like to stay here with me?"

Xiao Yue felt that her heartbeat had missed a beat, and shouted, "Hell!" Without looking back, she ran back to the stone path the same way, and then went to the thatched house where Yuan Chenhao was.

At this time, Xiao Yue felt that it was more reassuring to find someone she knew to be with, and she didn't know where Wen Youyou was, so she ran to find Yuan Chenhao without thinking about it.

But when she returned to the waterhole, Yuan Chenhao was no longer there, and she ran to the thatched hut and pushed open the door, only to find that it was empty.

A chill enveloped her from head to toe.

At this time, there was no one around Xiao Yue, thinking of the strange smile of the old man in white, she felt more and more terrifying, and at this time, she heard the old man's voice outside.

"Pretty boy, where are you hiding?"
