After the ferry docked, Zhuge Chen and the rich merchant settled in the nearby city, where they had to find a carriage willing to go to Gangyang City, the rich merchant's hometown, before they could leave.

Although the road is not very far, if you really walk back with the strength of the rich merchant's feet, you will have to take half your life. Zhuge Chen didn't think about Yu Feng giving him a ride, but the rich businessman was too timid, and he was afraid of heights because he kept yelling, which made Zhuge Chen irritable, so he could only give up acting like this.

Walking in this city, the rich merchant said apologetically to Zhuge Chen: "I'm really sorry for you, you have to ride in the same carriage with me, and you have to suffer from the fatigue of the boat." When you arrive in Gangyang City, after taking the property, I will definitely give you something that is worth more than that piece of jadeite. ”

Zhuge Chen shook his head and said, "There is no need to be like this, the value of that piece of jade is far higher than you think, enough to buy me to escort you all the way." But if you feel like you're losing money, you don't have to. The secret hidden in the jade is beyond the reach of mortals. Even if you tell other cultivators about this matter, it is impossible to predict whether they will solve you because of greed, or die under Jade's guidance. ”

The rich merchant smiled awkwardly and said, "You think too much, I'm not that kind of person." The line is upright and fair, to be honest, it is something that I decided to do as early as I started in business. It doesn't matter what you do, whether you are rich or poor, the most important thing is to be worthy of your conscience. Although there is an old saying that there is no treachery, there is no business, but the word 'treacherous' is also divided into three, six, nine and so on, and I happen to be the three. In the face of other merchants, I may be ruthless in slaughtering them, but for the poor people, if they have spare money, I will even help them. It's not for their repayment, it's just for peace of mind. ”

It's different from those guys who are glamorous on the surface, but really dirty behind the scenes. Although a wealthy merchant is no more likely to make others feel good than a kind person, he has always acted openly. Even if someone knocks on the door in the middle of the night, he will not be frightened in the slightest, purely because he has a clear conscience. In his heart, a businessman can't afford to be profitable, and if it's just like this all the time, the whole world and even the world will not be worth the expectations of these little people. You must know that the collapse of Lile never started with the royal family, but in everyone's hearts.

It is precisely because he is unwilling to make money that he will be squeezed out of Gangyang City and go away.

This is why he still chooses to return to his hometown, knowing that it is no different from sending him to death. For the sake of revenge, he wanted to take away his own brother's body and bury him. This poor man, who was assassinated by an adulterer and adulteress, could not be allowed to remain homeless after his death.

Zhuge Chen said with a smile: "I didn't expect you to have this heart, don't worry, no matter what, I will help you give your brother justice." Wasn't I the same when I was in the fishing village? Even though I have nothing to do with it, I still want to be in the midst of fire and water for the villagers. Speaking of which, like you, I'm also a person with a clear conscience!"

In fact, at the same time as the rich merchant said this, Zhuge Chen observed the other party's state of mind with a secret method. If there were ripples in the heart lake of the wealthy businessman during the period, and he testified that what he said was a lie, Zhuge Chen would leave directly. Even that piece of jade will be directly returned to its original owner by him. It's just a cave house, and you want him to do things against his will?

No way!

The rich businessman was overjoyed, but he didn't care about continuing to wander around the city, looking for the coachman, and he had to drag Zhuge Chen to have a drink. Moreover, his words also revealed his surprise, he never thought that a young cultivator with a high level would make him feel so kind. Be sure to order a few pots of good wine and have a good time.

After so many years in business, rich businessmen are not short of money. Therefore, he directly inquired about the best restaurant in the city, and after walking into it with Zhuge Chen, he instructed the shopkeeper to only bring good wine and food, and not to worry about money.

Zhuge Chen and the shopkeeper said, "You don't have to listen to him, it's enough to go to the first few courses." There are only two of us, we can't eat that much, and the rest can only be wasted. ”

Seeing that the other party suddenly changed his mind, the shopkeeper couldn't help but roll his eyes. Just as he was about to turn around, the rich merchant had already stuffed the prepared broken silver into the hands of the shopkeeper, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry." ”

Zhuge Chen took in everything and didn't say anything. Each person has his own means of doing things, and he does not need to be instructed by others.

And the wealthy businessman also said at this time: "I am used to this, if I can use money to get through the trouble, it is not even trouble." This is a wise saying among us businessmen. ”

"Me too," Zhuge Chen said jokingly.

Unexpectedly, when the rich businessman who didn't know how to laugh heard this, he immediately became nervous, and said again and again: "Look at my broken mouth, just talk nonsense, don't take it to heart! If you feel uncomfortable, you can beat me to discourage, as long as my brother can get revenge, I will ...... anything."

"It's just a joke, it's not true, and you don't have to be nervous. Besides, it is also your ability to make me follow you willingly, and you don't need to be so cautious. Zhuge Chen laughed, and the laughter attracted the attention of the guests at several tables around. And a few people at one of the tables showed fierce lights and had already begun to stare at the two of them.

The rich merchant who didn't see it breathed a sigh of relief, but he was still stubborn: "How can it be? Even if that piece of jade is as precious as you say, to me, it is just money that cannot be taken away after death." It's also worthless compared to my brother. ”

"You two, what are you muttering? You can't eat honestly, do you have to teach you a few times?" Several uninvited guests came to the table of the two, and one of the scar-faced men directly picked up the teapot and spilled the hot water on the ground, about to lift it and smash it on Zhuge Chen's face.

"What Lao Tzu is most unaccustomed to is a little white face like you, let me educate you what to do when you go out!" Scarface said, and immediately tensed the muscles in his arm, and an arrow came in front of Zhuge Chen.

After a while, he didn't hear the sound of the teapot breaking, but Zhuge Chen directly stretched out his hand and grabbed Scarface's wrist. As soon as he exerted his strength, the teapot fell to the ground and shattered, and another crunch sound was heard, and it turned out that the bones of Scarface's entire arm were cracking inch by inch. I'm afraid that no matter how expert an osteopathic surgeon is, he can't save this situation.

After slowly standing up from the chair and protecting the rich merchant behind him, Zhuge Chen kicked away the scarred face that had collapsed to the ground due to severe pain, looked at the group of people who were about to be killed, and said loudly: "When will the restaurant's speech and laughter be controlled by other guests, could it be that you are the people of the city lord's mansion here? Even if it is true, you don't have this power, right? Or is it that the Yunmeng folk style has reached such a point of spurning?"

After listening to what Zhuge Chen said, beside a skinny man who looked like a brother boy at the head of the table, a middle-aged man wearing a melon skin hat who was also weak leaned over and whispered something in Brother Gongzi's ear.

Zhuge Chen raised his head, and at the same time stepped down, directly crushing Scarface's ribs: "Don't speculate, I'm really not your Yunmeng's person." Dao Ye, I don't change my name, I don't change my surname, Zhu Jiangshui is also!"

There was an uproar in the restaurant, and they exchanged heads and ears, and they all recited the name to people they knew well.

And the boy got up from the chair, slapped his face, and said: "What a Taoist master Zhu Jiangshui who will not change his name! I am the son of the lord of this city, are you interested in following me? ”

"What about him?" Zhuge Chen stretched out his hand and pointed to Scarface, who had only breathed out but not breathed in on the ground.

Brother Gongzi shook the folding fan lightly, but he really didn't have any fairy demeanor, but he was proud: "He, the dying man, how can he be compared to you?"
