Chapter 114: The Golden Crocodile Who Came to Admonish
"Brother Bai, don't spoil her too much, she will learn badly."
Looking at the little girl who jumped to the side, listening to her laughter, Zhao Shuran said with some disgust.
"It's fine. Once or twice, nothing. That's right,"
Li Mubai turned his gaze, skimmed the big wooden boxes piled up in the corner, and then looked at Zhao Shuran and said, "I shouldn't go home for lunch, don't wait for me, I'll go to the east of Wuhun City to have a look." ”
To the east of Wuhun City, isn't that wasteland and farmland?
What's there to see there?
Zhao Shuran is very familiar with the east of Wuhun City, and she came from there in the first place.
Except for some farmland and hills, the rest is overgrown wasteland, which has no scenery and the land is not fertile, it is a land that is useless.
That's why Zhao Shuran had some doubts in her heart.
However, she did not ask all these doubts, but held them in her heart.
Don't ask what others don't say.
If the other party wants to tell you, he will naturally say.
This is Zhao Shuran's code of conduct, so for Li Mubai's words, she just nodded obediently.
But in a blink of an eye.
She skimmed over a few boxes and gift boxes on the floor, and realized a new problem.
These boxes in front of you are all priceless, and it seems that there is something wrong with putting them in the corner like this, and if you are robbed, it will be a big loss.
She understood.
When those guests came, they must have carried things into the house, and this road must have attracted the attention of many people, not to mention that those people had no intention of stealing, but what if they met a real thief?
The other party will definitely come to patronize when he sees a lot of gifts.
"These boxes, right here?"
Looking at the glittering gold coins on the ground, as well as the round silver-white pearls, Zhao Shuran's tone was a little worried.
Li Mubai chuckled: "It's okay, it's okay to put it here." Aren't there still you and Xiaoqian at home? Where will thieves come to the door? Even if someone really sits on the beam and is a gentleman, he is not afraid, Xiaoqian will solve these things. ”
Xiao Qian is a soul master of dozens of levels, and it is not easy to solve some Liang Shang gentlemen who make a living by stealing?
It's just that Zhao Shuran doesn't know this.
When she heard Li Mubai's words, she only thought that the other party trusted her, so she was relieved and bold to put these money and treasures here.
So...
Zhao Shuran felt a sense of gratitude in her heart, and secretly swore in her heart that she would not disappoint Li Mubai, and she would definitely take good care of these things and not let them lose a single cent!
"Alright, I'll leave first."
Li Mubai said, and then walked towards the gate, and after pushing open the wooden door, he jumped out and walked on the street.
"Li Gongzi, early."
"Good morning, Li Gongzi."
…
As soon as he walked out of the house, on the street, many people greeted Li Mubai with a smile and greeted him.
These people will also greet each other on weekdays, but the smile on their faces at this time is more, perhaps because of the big businessman Li Fengheng.
It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
Li Mubai also responded with a smile to the smiles of these people.
After all, it's better to have one more friend than one more enemy, right?
"It's a good thing that these people don't know my true identity, otherwise, someone will definitely visit me every day, and I won't be able to live this day."
Li Mubai sighed in his heart.
Soon, he found a small shop where he bought pen and paper.
These are all necessary items for drawing up a roadmap.
Subsequently.
Li Mubai found a carriage pulling people, and after telling the driver the destination, he sat down and waited quietly.
After all, he lived in the west of the city, a long distance from the east of Wuhun City, and it would take nearly an hour just to walk there.
For such a long distance, it is natural to take a carriage.
As for the leap?
Thinking too much, Li Mubai is not ready to be famous in the city.
The kind of life that jumps out and attracts the attention of the world is not what he wants.
Otherwise.
He will not work hard to cultivate for twenty years, and he will still be unknown in the soul master world.
It wasn't until he became a Title Douluo and became the new elder of the Martial Spirit Hall that after the battle of the Double Seal, his name began to spread in the Soul Master World.
Merely.
His identity is still a mystery in the hearts of many people.
Because in the Battle of Twin Peaks, he changed his face!
That's right.
At that time, he made some touch-ups to his face.
People who are familiar with him still know him, as for those who are not familiar with him, they may feel very familiar when they see Li Mubai's true face, but they absolutely can't help it.
Li Fengheng is a good example.
At that time, when he was buying a house, when he saw Li Mubai, he only felt a sense of familiarity in his heart, but in the end, he still couldn't recognize Li Mubai, and he still came to visit on the day before he knew Li Mubai's true face.
The horse-drawn carriage drove through the bluestone paved streets, bumpy along the way.
made Li Mubai's mood of wanting to squint and pretend to sleep, but it all disappeared.
No way.
Li Mubai could only sit on the side of the carriage by the window, lift the vulgar curtain, and look out, looking at the pedestrians on the street and the smoke and fireworks of the hawkers.
The east of Wuhun City, on the whole, is more prosperous than the west of the city where Li Mubai lives.
Even the houses on both sides of the street are extremely magnificent.
There are not only many pedestrians on the streets, but they are also very beautifully dressed, which is in stark contrast to the clothes of the pedestrians in the west of the city.
"The east of the city is indeed a prosperous place. If the wasteland east of Wuhun City is developed into a new urban area, it will definitely attract a large number of people to come. The economy of Wuhun City will be further prosperous, and Bibi Dong will definitely give me a raise! ”
Li Mubai smiled.
As time passed, the bumpy carriage suddenly stopped.
"Guest officer, the destination has arrived."
The coachman lifted the curtain and said in a soothing voice.
Li Mubai nodded, hunched over, walked out of the carriage, stood firmly, and took out a silver coin.
"Guest officer, this is too big, the old man can't find it."
The coachman's gray goatee trembled slightly, and his tone was tinged with excitement.
He's been a coachman for some time.
Occasionally, I will meet high rollers, and in a short trip, I will directly throw a lot of money.
One silver coin is worth one hundred copper coins.
And the cost of the journey from the west of the city to the wasteland to the east of the city is only thirty-four copper coins.
The driver seemed a little excited.
is because he has already regarded Li Mubai as a high-roller who spends a lot of money, and such a high-roller often doesn't care about this money.
That's why he said he couldn't find it.
He's a chauffeur, can't he really find a silver coin?
Of course not.
He made such a statement on purpose, and he gambled that the other party would not be counted. In this way, he will be able to earn more money.
"If you can't find it, forget it. Go back. ”
Li Mubai waved his hand lightly, and did not care about the money of these dozens of copper coins.
Did he not know what the coachman meant?
Of course not.
If Li Fengheng hadn't sent that box of gold coins, but also a box of valuable East China Sea pearls, as well as a number of valuable treasures, then he would definitely be careful about these dozens of copper coins.
But that's no longer the case.
Thinking of the mountains of wealth in his family, Li Mubai couldn't help but feel a little fluttering in his heart.
It's just a few dozen copper coins, what is that?
What you have now is money!
Today, the master is also proud again!!
Smell.
The coachman, with a goatee and wrinkles, suddenly brightened his eyes, and his face also showed a happy look: "Thank you, son, son, heroic, every year, the Quartet is safe, and the family and Pepsi are prosperous." ”
Hearing these words of praise, Li Mubai's heart was extremely comfortable.
This rich man is good, the people he meets, he speaks well, all of them are talents, I like this very much!
Li Mubai, who was fluttering, walked briskly towards the nearest raised hill.
This wasteland is basically plain.
It's just that the strange rocks on the ground are protruding, so that no one cultivates them, except for the barren grass half a meter deep, and on the raised hill, there are a few crooked trees growing on the mountain.
The tree is not tall or wide, and its body is as slender as a bamboo.
Apparently.
This is because of the lack of nourishment for a long time, which is why it has become so slender and slim.
When you come to the top of the hill and look around, you will see that there are weeds and weeds, and there is no crop in such a land, so it is useless!
"It's a notoriously barren wasteland."
As the words fell, the young man suddenly smiled, "But it's okay. Starting today, this place will change dramatically, and when the time comes, people will only flock to this place! ”
"Elder Li is really a big breath."
A voice suddenly came from not far away.
Li Mubai then looked over.
As soon as he saw a reed thicket taller than a person, a figure jumped out, his body was dressed in brocade, the hem of his robe swayed with the pace, and the weeds half a meter high were overwhelmed by its wanton trampling, making a rustling sound.
The person who came was gray-haired, and his face was full of smiles.
precisely
Golden crocodile offering!
Why is this old man here?
Looking at the golden crocodile that jumped up and came to him, Li Mubai's heart was full of doubts.
"Elder Li, don't come unharmed." The golden crocodile smiled and walked to Li Mubai's side in a few steps.
Li Mubai put away a blank piece of rice paper unfolded in his hand, turned to look at the golden crocodile, and said with a smile: "I'm very good, but the golden crocodile is worshipped, and I'm a little older!" ”
For the golden crocodile that suddenly appeared here.
Li Mubai didn't believe that this was a chance encounter of fate, the other party was here, and he stopped him directly, it must have been premeditated.
As for what it is, I don't know yet.
"Yes, sometimes people have to obey the old! Just like the river that goes to the sea in the east, although it has the ambition to enter the sea, the process is slow and the journey is difficult. finally arrived at the mouth of the sea, but suddenly found that he was no longer as passionate as he was at the beginning, and after tempering, only gentle and docile remained. ”
The golden crocodile was full of sighs.
Seeing that the other party didn't mean to raise the bar at all, this was a bit unexpected by Li Mubai.
"Why do you still regret your life? That's not your style. ”
Li Mubai rolled the rice paper into a ball and held it in his hand.
Although he was talking, his eyes did not stare at the golden crocodile, but looked around, looking around at the wilderness.
He is planning the optimal development plan in his head.
"Why do you talk with a smell of gunpowder?"
The golden crocodile frowned slightly, and guessed:
"Are you still haunted by the previous incident?"
"So you know that thing is not right! I thought you didn't know anything about it. ”
Lee Myung-bak glanced at the crocodile obliquely, gave the latter a wide roll of his eyes, and then continued to look down the hill.
His mind was constantly deducing.
The wasteland in front of him began to change in Li Mubai's eyes, the original barren grass disappeared, and was replaced by one high-rise building after another, and wide and generous avenues were interspersed among the high-rise buildings.
It is only a period of deduction, and the optimal planning map of the new city has been clearly presented in Li Mubai's mind.
Just when Li Mubai was thinking.
The golden crocodile just stood quietly behind Li Mubai and didn't say a word.
He saw that Li Mubai was thinking, so he consciously did not bother.
Long.
Wait until Li Mubai unfolds the thick rice paper in his hand again.
Only then did the golden crocodile say, "Elder Li thinks there is an opportunity for development here? ”
Li Mubai, who was about to start drawing the planning picture in his mind, couldn't help but pause when he heard the words, and stared at the golden crocodile with some differences: "Do you know what I'm going to do?" ”
"Of course, I know that the population of Wuhun City has increased greatly recently. We can't let go of such opportunities. The only way to keep these people is to build new districts. ”
The golden crocodile looks like a strategist, and it seems that everything is under control.
"The news of your temple is well-informed."
Li Mubai sneered, and began to draw his plan on a raised flat boulder on the top of the mountain.
"It's nature."
The golden crocodile nodded, affirming Li Mubai's words, and then he looked at Li Mubai's hand holding the pen and waving it on the rice paper,
"This wasteland, although flat, is not transported by a river. If cattle and horses are used as means of transportation, the cost of such a new city will definitely be very high, and the cost of building a new city in such a situation is an astronomical amount, not to mention that it has to be sold for a profit, and no one will buy the built house at all. At that time, the cost of building a new city in the Wuhun Hall will all be in vain, causing serious losses. ”
The golden crocodile said his opinion to himself.
Wrong.
Regarding the words of the golden crocodile, Li Mubai didn't pay attention to it, but continued to draw the planning diagram in his mind on the rice paper one by one.
After a while.
"That's it!"
Looking at the dense patterns on the rice paper, a smile appeared on Li Mubai's face.
After rolling up the rice paper and putting it away, he turned to look at the golden crocodile and scolded with a smile: "Confused." ”
"Why are you swearing? Isn't the old man's analysis wrong? Young people should listen to each other, or you will regret it. ”
The golden crocodile frowned, but did not lose his temper directly.
He admired the young man in front of him very much and didn't want to make a detour.
If this plan is really agreed by Bibi Dong, the new city will be built according to this plan, which will lead to the loss of the Wuhun Palace, and Li Mubai will definitely be rejected by the other members of the Worship Palace, and for this reason, Bibi Dong will be forced to marginalize it.
It wasn't what he wanted to see.
"You're stupid. To build a new city, why does it have to be funded by the Wuhun Palace? ”
Li Mubai ignored the golden crocodile's persuasion, but turned around and laughed, and then went down the mountain alone.
