Chapter 226: A Peaceful Day
As soon as Huo Chaolan spoke, everyone tacitly put away their smiles.
The more he smiled at the shopkeeper, the more the shopkeeper felt that he was dangerous, and even the hand holding the silver ticket was trembling without realizing it.
After hesitating for a long time, the shopkeeper still didn't dare to reach out to touch the silver ticket, but grovelled and smiled: "Hero, this pearl hairpin is a gift from me to the girl, how can I collect your money!" ”
"I'll repeat, we're here to buy things, don't act like a house robbery."
Huo Chaolan's expressionless words made the shopkeeper feel a lot of fear in his heart, and he hurriedly hugged the silver ticket on the counter into his arms: "Thank you three guests for coming, the shop is deeply honored." ”
After inserting the pearl hairpin back into her head, Mo Xiuxiu asked curiously, "Are you also from Ji Hai?" Is this jewelry store owned by the Bone Cave? ”
The shopkeeper nodded fiercely: "What the girl said is true, everything owned by the Pinbone Cave and the Pinjin Building belongs to the old master and the young master, and of course we are also his subordinates." ”
Hearing this, Huo Chaolan couldn't help but let out a sneer: "The quality of Ji Hai's subordinates is too uneven, and there are all kinds of goods. ”
Mo Xiuxiu nodded very approvingly: "Well~~ Sure enough, Ji Yifan is more reliable, at least he looks very imposing." ”
Out of the door of the jewelry store, Mo Xiuxiu finally asked the words that had been held in her heart for a long time: "Why are the people here so rich?" How did they manage to spend so much money without changing their faces...... In their eyes, 300,000 taels seemed to be equivalent to a penny in my hand. ”
"It's such a profound question, and I don't know how to answer it." You Chengjiao shrugged his shoulders helplessly, which he couldn't understand.
After secretly ridiculing the two of them as hillbillies in his heart, Huo Chaolan still swaggered up to the two: "Stretch out your hands!" ”
There were four more hands in front of him in an instant, plus a total of six of his own, Huo Chaolan explained in a similar way: "Human fingers are also the same as Ji Hai's subordinates - uneven, different lengths. ”
"Hahaha......" The two people who couldn't hold back their smiles raised their heads and laughed, and Mo Xiuxiu had already laughed into tears: "I didn't expect that Emperor Zun was so cautious, and he was really ruthless in treating his rivals, even if he couldn't see it, he didn't forget to say a few words." ”
Huo Chaolan, who was regarded as a joke for no reason, frowned very displeasedly, and then raised his index finger and pointed at the two of them, and said angrily: "Give me a serious one, if you dare to laugh again...... Don't blame me for being rude to you! ”
When the words fell, he couldn't help but laugh.
When a person is prejudiced against you, anything really doesn't matter can affect you, and most of them are not good.
Even if it is an arrogant and conceited person like Huo Chaolan, the grievances between him and Ji Hai cannot be explained clearly in three or two sentences, everything has to be resolved by the parties themselves.
When the three of them were almost smiling, Huo Xiaolan explained seriously: "The three of us have a total of six hands, each hand has five fingers, and the length of each finger is different. The five fingers represent the five people with different wealth, with the middle finger being the richest person and the thumb being the poorest.
Our six hands represent six rich people and six poor people...... When you cut off the middle finger of our hand and gather it in the palm of one hand, will you also be surprised by the length of that person's finger? ”
Imagining the appearance of a palm with six middle fingers in her mind, Mo Xiuxiu first laughed wildly, and then tilted her head to reveal a row of small white teeth: "I will definitely shout in great surprise: Why are this person's fingers so long?" ”
Huo Chaolan smiled and said, "This is the same reason as the question you asked earlier, 'Why are the people in the jewelry store so rich?' because they come from all over the world." Although their clothing styles are very different, they should all be local broad-minded households. ”
"So......" Mo Xiuxiu nodded thoughtfully.
Huo Xiaolan continued: "So, it's like putting together the longest middle fingers in the hands of different people in one hand...... No one grows all five fingers as long as a middle finger. If one day you see them appear in the same palm, there is no doubt that they are patchwork. ”
Mo Xiuxiu immediately showed a look of sudden realization: "So that's the case, I understand!" It's not that the guests here are rich, but they are rich people from all over the world. ”
"Exactly!" Lowering his head heavily, Huo Chaolan suddenly sighed heavily: "It is impossible for everyone in a town and region to have a lot of money...... Some people spend hundreds of thousands of taels to buy a pearl hairpin without even blinking their eyes, but more people are poor people who have to hesitate for a long time to buy a hairpin for a few dollars of silver. ”
The Demon Sect Emperor, who kills people without blinking, suddenly became sentimental because of something that has nothing to do with him, which can be regarded as a strange news.
After a while, he had a novel idea in his heart, if all the capable people in the world were gathered under his command, were he afraid that he would not be the co-master of the world?
You Chengjiao added: "There are always rich and poor people in a region and town, just like there are always good and bad people in the world...... It's all the same. No matter how many drunken gold fans there are in the bone cave, they can't stop many of them from being shaky.
…… Where it seems to be calm, in fact, there is purgatory on earth where we can't see it. ”
As the words fell, Huo Chaolan pulled a sneer from the corner of his mouth.
"Why does purgatory exist on earth, then ask yourselves! The self-proclaimed family is decent and doesn't look at us demons. But if it weren't for your selfishness, there would be some suzerains who are in their positions but don't do their jobs...... Where is there so much purgatory on earth in this world?
Your good brother Hua Jian is proud of the talent of the sect master, what can he do in the end? Wasn't he driven out of the house by his master's own son? ”
You Chengjiao, who was powerless to refute, lowered his head silently: "When will this turbid world become an eternal sunny day?" ”
"Forever? Haha......" Huo Chaolan laughed loudly as if he was listening to a big joke: "Even the Protoss back then didn't dare to talk about it casually, so that this world could get 'forever bright and sunny days', because people's hearts can never be killed." ”
The laughter suddenly stopped abruptly, and he said righteously: "Everyone wants to live a peaceful life, but there are also people who just don't want the world to be peaceful, and sooner or later they will set off one bloody storm after another." ”
