Gu Hong wanted to speak on the side, but stopped.

Thirty taels, so much money, he is not willing to pay if he is killed!

But if it was Xu Ling's compensation, he would have nothing else to say.

Seeing Bao Li's hesitation, Xu Ling said again: "Not enough? How about fifty taels? ”

Bao Li, the man, raised his eyes and looked at Xu Ling, but he was still silent.

The people on the side were in a hurry.

"Fifty taels is a lot! Wouldn't it be a fool not to say yes? ”

"He's not a fool, I think this young man is a fool, and it's not something he provoked, he came to the door by himself and let others trap him!"

"This person is also excessive, his fellow villagers only gave him three taels, and he was about to agree, and fifty taels is not enough at this time?"

Xu Ling looked at Bao Li coldly and sneered: "Everyone else thinks you are greedy, are you sure that fifty taels is not enough?" ”

Bao Li's face turned red, he saw Xu Ling dressed up as a businessman and appeared in Yazhou again, he must have come to do business, since he is also a businessman, and he is kind enough to pay for his brother, he really has the idea of taking advantage.

"I don't lose you, you give my brother more money, and I will be a cow and a horse for you in the future!" You don't have to pay me for food and shelter! Bao Li blushed and said in a rough voice.

Xu Ling sneered: "I just heard you say that you still have an old lady at home, don't pay me to be a cow and a horse, and your mother starved to death at home?" ”

"Since I was a child, my mother taught me to be a man with a conscience, I brought them out, if it weren't for me, Da Zhuang wouldn't have died, this is what I deserve!" Bao Li had a sad face, but his words were very firm, "My mother is not only my son!" ”

"Good!" Xu Ling raised his eyebrows and applauded: "I respect you for being a man, so I promise you sixty taels of funeral expenses for your brother." ”

"Sixty taels!" Gu Hong's eyes darkened, what kind of injustice did he encounter, he hurriedly cleared up the relationship: "This is all you have to pay, I didn't agree, I want to pay for yourself!" ”

Xu Ling was not angry at all, and said with a smile: "I not only have to lose his money, but also give you another fortune." ”

"Is there such a big fool in the world?"

Even Gu Hong was skeptical, what kind of auspicious day of the zodiac was today, and he could still meet such a rich fool?

"Why are you giving me money?" There will be no pie in the sky, Gu Honghu asked.

"What I give you is not only money, but also a place for you to return to your roots," Xu Ling persuaded with kind words: "I'm not a fool, but I pity you and I are both businessmen, and I can't bear to see you abandon your relatives and friends for the sake of profit, so that you can't go back to your home, and your infamy flies everywhere." ”

"I know that you don't have a bad heart, if you don't have no money and are desperate, you definitely won't do such ugly things that bury your fellow villagers in other places, but those of us who go south and north to do business, who knows the difficulties behind the scenes?"

"In my opinion, it is not good for you to go to sea, it is better to do some small business in your hometown honestly, a little wealth is peace, at least peace of mind!"

Xu Ling was different from others, he didn't directly scold Gu Hong for not being old-fashioned, he put himself in his shoes and persuaded him, and Gu Hong hesitated when he said it directly.

What Xu Ling said was in his heart, and today he did such a villain's thing, to put it bluntly, it is a gambler's psychology.

Big profit for a small amount of money. If he succeeds, he will be able to accumulate a lot of capital, and with more capital, he will be able to do a bigger business.

Who knew that failure would come so quickly.

Could it really be as Xu Ling said, he is not suitable for going to sea to do business?

"But I've already bought a sea boat with all my money, and I have nothing left but this one." Gu Hong was also quite honest, and directly told Xu Ling about the difficulty.

Xu Ling patted him on the shoulder with a look of relief, "Brother Gu, look, I said that you are in trouble, otherwise how could you do such a shameless thing?" How much did you spend on your sea boat? ”

Gu Hong was not only not angry when he was scolded, but looked at Xu Ling gratefully, this person really understands himself!

"One hundred and forty taels bought, I can't make up any silver!"

"Sitong is dead, and it is unlucky to hear it, so I will say how could you encounter such a thing. That's it," Xu Ling frowned, pretending to be embarrassed and thinking again, "Brother Gu, I'm willing to spend sixty taels to buy your ship......"

"How many ??" Gu Hong's face immediately changed.

"In addition, I will give you twenty taels, make up eight out, six or six Shun, eight or eight Dafa, listen to auspiciousness, you can make a fortune in any business after you go back!"

Xu Ling smiled, said these auspicious words without hurrying, and watched Gu Hong's face change from anger to thought.

He was thinking, hesitating.

This accident has made him regret going to sea a little.

But the arrow is ready to fly, and it has to be sent. Now someone bears his mistake and helps him pay sixty taels for his funeral, and spends eighty taels on his boat, so that he will not lose all his money.

No matter how you think about it, it's a little exciting.

Seeing that Gu Hong didn't speak, Xu Ling also began to hesitate.

"Well, if you don't forget it, this ship is indeed not very lucky, I think about it......"

"Big brother! I'm willing to sell you this boat! ”

Gu Hong was afraid that Xu Ling would regret it, so he hurriedly shouted: "Eighty taels!" ”

"Am I a little too impulsive, why do I promise to help you compensate for the funeral expenses, it has nothing to do with me." Xu Ling was very hesitant and said with a wry smile: "No wonder my family persuaded me, saying that I am not a business material, I am so stupid......"

"Sixty taels! Sixty or six Shun! This ship is new, and you can go to the shipyard to buy an old ship for more than that! Gu Hong gritted his teeth, for fear that Xu Ling would regret it.

Xu Ling smiled secretly in his heart, he was afraid that he would retreat again, and Gu Hong reacted.

I had to smile bitterly: "That's it, since you call me brother, how can I bear to see you embarrassed?" Sixty taels, I bought. ”

As he spoke, he grabbed Gu Hong's neck and took it to the side, and said earnestly: "I'll give you six taels in a while, and when you return to your hometown, you must go to Da Zhuang's house to visit, although I will compensate you, but money is money, love is love, you can't be a ruthless and unrighteous person in the mouth of your neighbors." ”

Gu Hong opened his mouth and couldn't speak for a long time, he looked at Xu Ling's sincere face and couldn't help but shed tears of shame.

"Good brother, I won't take this money, I'll visit him at home myself! Thank you for waking me up! ”

Xu Ling looked at him pitifully, "Brother Gu, sure enough, you are really not a bad person...... Turns out I'm not wrong! ”

Gu Hong's heart was warm. The pain of being reprimanded and looked down upon, in front of Xu Ling's praise, was like ice and snow meeting the sun, which directly melted.

Xu Ling patted Gu Hong on the shoulder, returned to everyone, and said to Bao Li: "The matter is solved." I will pay your brother's compensation, not only that, but Brother Gu will also visit him in person after returning to his hometown. ”

"Since you are here to work with Brother Gu, do you have any objections to following me now?"

Bao Li and the others looked at each other and shook their heads to indicate that they had no objections.

The onlookers who ate melons ate good melons with a good ending, and they were also a little satisfied.

Xu Ling is even more happy, he can get a boat at a low price, and there is a cheap labor, maybe he can go back to Lotus Bay directly from Yazhou!
