Chapter 238: Phew! Disgusting!
"Bao'er, after worshipping Daddy later, you can go back to Grandpa's mansion."
Yongping Village, Chu Family.
While packing up the already tattered scrolls, Chu said to his sister who was busy cleaning up the house not far away:
"Grandpa said, you have a one-in-a-million Folding Pill Spirit Root in your body, and you can't stay in the place where the fire spirit power gathers for a long time before your strength is not strong enough, the fire spirit power near Montenegro is extremely strong, so it's better for you to go back early."
When Chu Bao'er heard this, she was silent for a while, and then sighed inexplicably.
"Well, I see, brother."
The reason why she fainted at home before was because the spiritual root in her body collided with the extremely rich fire aura of Montenegro, which attracted the attention of Lu Chen, Gu Simiao and others who went to Montenegro for an unannounced visit at that time.
In other words, her rare top-level wind attribute spiritual root attracted the attention of Gu Simiao, who was also a top talent in the world.
So Gu Simiao directly accepted her as an apprentice and took her to the county mansion in the capital to recuperate her body and prepare for subsequent cultivation.
Although she has passed the best cultivation age, the spiritual root in her body is extremely special, and if she teaches her carefully, she may not be able to build a foundation and enter the Dao, even if her comprehension is insufficient, and her achievements in cultivation are limited, taking her away can be regarded as saving people's lives, after all, Chu Bao'er can't stay in Montenegro for a long time.
As for whether he was worried that Lu Chen would be kind, or because he loved Chu and loved the house, he would directly bring her back to the house as a little maid after learning about Chu Bao'er's situation, then only Gu Simiao himself knew.
Soon, the sacrifice was ready.
The two left Yongping Village side by side and came to several newly erected graves not far from the village.
Not long after they left, many officials in standard robes slowly appeared not far from the village gate.
When the two came to Chu Zhan's grave, they unexpectedly saw two familiar figures in front of the grave.
It was Chu Zhan's robe, Zeyue Dashan, and his daughter Yue Qingqing.
"Uncle Father-in-law, Miss Father-in-law."
Seeing the two of them, although Chu was a little surprised, he quickly showed a look of understanding, and then spoke very naturally and greeted the two.
"Brother, Bao'er..."
Yue Dashan turned his head apologetically and looked at the Chu family brothers and sisters.
"You're here."
In front of Chu Zhan's grave, there were already various sacrifices at this time, and there was even a chicken among them.
It can be seen that Yue Dashan sincerely worships his old comrades-in-arms.
And Yue Qingqing on the side was impatient.
In fact, if it weren't for the repentance of the marriage, Yue Dashan felt more and more sorry for Chu Zhan and forced her to come over, she wouldn't have come here at all, let alone kowtow to Chu Zhan.
And Chu Bao'er, who learned that the Yue family regretted her marriage, glared at the two of them angrily.
"What are you doing here?"
The tone was full of anger and dissatisfaction, and the two of them were unwelcome.
"Stinky girl, how do you talk?"
Yue Qingqing, who didn't want to come, looked at him horizontally, and said very unhappily: "My father and I made a special trip to worship your father, and you just talk to us like this?" β
Chu Bao'er opened her mouth, and was about to say that you are not welcome here, but Chu suddenly stretched out his hand to stop her from saying any further.
"Bao'er, forget it, don't talk about it."
Chu's voice was very low, and he was like the young man who was angry before.
Obviously, his father's death made him mature a lot all of a sudden.
Chu Bao'er frowned, glanced at Chu, her face was a little dissatisfied, but she obediently didn't say any more.
However, Chu Bao'er's attitude still made Yue Dashan's face darken.
He knew that no matter what he said, in the matter of repentance, especially when the Chu family was in difficulty, their Yue family was sorry for the Chu family, and all he could do was sincerely apologize to Chu and Chu Zhan.
In this regard, Chu still has a breezy appearance, and he seems to be very open-minded, without the slightest concern.
Even if his sister has climbed the high branch of Gu Simiao, he has not bothered with the Yue family about regretting the marriage, otherwise, as long as he reveals the relationship between his sister and Gu Simiao, the Yue family will not say that he regrets the marriage, I am afraid that he will rush to send his daughter here.
Regarding the Chu family's situation that has obviously improved a lot now, Chu sees it very lightly, and does not use his sister's relationship to cling to anything.
At this time, he still did not get out of the shadow of his father's death because of him.
was so obviously rejected by Chu Bao'er, Yue Dashan was not annoyed at all, but forced his daughter to accompany the Chu brothers and sisters to worship Chu Zhan.
After the worship, Chu took Chu Bao'er and left, Yue Dashan raised his hand and opened his mouth, as if he wanted to stop Chu, but in the end he sighed dejectedly and didn't say anything.
Yue Qingqing looked relaxed, and even had a sense of complete relief.
And at this moment-
"Brother, Sister Bao'er!"
Two shouts suddenly rang out in the distance.
The four of them subconsciously turned their heads to look, and soon saw five thin men running towards this side sweating profusely.
Chu was a little puzzled.
He knew those men, they were all villagers who lived together in Yongping Village, and seeing them coming over in such a hurry, it was obvious that something big had happened, but if he looked closely, their faces were obviously happy.
Can there be happy events in this Montenegro?
Seeing that someone came to find Chu and Chu Bao'er, Yue Dashan ignored the urging of his daughter who was in a hurry to leave.
Soon, the five men came to Chu, and the lean man led by him gasped and said, "... Brother, Sister Bao'er, so you're here... Let's find it easy. β
Hearing this, Chu suddenly asked with a puzzled expression: "Brother Dadong, is something happening in the village?" Why are you in such a hurry to find us? β
"Huh..."
Yue Qingqing didn't even glance at a few people, and muttered in a low voice:
"What can happen to this broken place where birds don't, I'm afraid that this poor ghost owes people food, and they are afraid that he will run away, so they will chase him."
Only Yue Dashan heard her muttering, and couldn't help but frown, glaring at her daughter, Yue Qingqing didn't mutter, but still looked at Chu with disdain.
The man known as Brother Da Dong smiled.
"Happy event, great joy!"
He breathed a sigh of relief, and then couldn't wait to say: "Brother, there are a few high-ranking officials from Luo Jing in the village just now, and they said that they are going to build a water here in Montenegro... Water... The water factory, as well as the coal mine, will buy coal miles from the land allocated to us by my grandfather in the future! β
As soon as these words came out, Chu was instantly stunned.
Not only him, but Chu Bao'er and Yue Dashan's father and daughter on the side were also stunned.
"What? Buying coal? β
Carboniferous... Isn't that something harmful?
What did the imperial court do with this thing?
"yes!!"
The man next to Brother Da Dong hurriedly answered: "I heard that the imperial court has found a way to make the poisonous smoke that harms people no longer appear when the coal burns, and it is necessary to use a large amount of coal to do great things, so I fell in love with the coal of Montenegro closest to the capital, and from now on, all the coal under us will be wanted by the imperial court!" Collect as much as you want! β
"And the money is still a lot of miles!"
Hearing this, Yue Qingqing suddenly subconsciously asked, "How much?" β
"Fifty dollars a stone!"
Brother Da Dong said without hesitation.
As soon as he finished speaking, his companion on the side added: "And we don't have to do anything, the government recruits its own people to mine the coal, and gives us money directly after weighing, that is... All of our villagers, or all those who moved to settle in Montenegro, can make a windfall while lying down! β
Rumble!
After listening to the two of them, Yue Qingqing seemed to have a thunderclap in her mind, and in the next second, she only felt that her brain was spinning for a while, her body staggered, and she almost fell to the ground.
Carboniferous... Burning up without poisonous smoke of charcoal...
How is this possible?!
How can there be such an unreasonable thing in this world?
If this is true...
Montenegro is so big, almost every family has been divided into dozens of acres of land, and those charcoals, so much that they can be seen everywhere on the ground, and I don't know how much is buried underground, if the charcoal can be sold for money, then the villagers of Montenegro... The Chu family, who used to be her fiancΓ©......
The Chu who was looked down on by her... Aren't you going to be transformed into a rich man?!
She's... ruined the future of his young grandmother with his own hands?!
"Impossible!"
Realizing this, she immediately shouted.
"There can never be a charcoal in this world that does not emit poisonous smoke, you must be deceiving people!"
As she spoke, she suddenly turned her head, glared at Chu not far away, and said loudly: "Okay, you Chu, in order to make me regret it and make our family regret it, you actually directed and performed this kind of drama by yourself." β
"I used to think you were a decent gentleman, phew! Disgusting!! β
