Chapter 173: Refusal (Third Watch)
Xue Zha's answer directly shocked everyone, no one expected that he would directly refuse Sun Jin's request, you know, not everyone has the opportunity to meet the king of a country.
Not to mention the promise of the king.
It's like a top rich man taking out a signed check from his arms, pushing it directly in front of him, and solemnly saying that the amount is as easy as you want.
But Xue Zha, he has his own plans, Liu Han called him a brother and a brother, but he didn't agree, this Sun Jin only used one promise to let him die for him.
It's hard to say whether it's a blank check or not, how could Xue Zha agree.
Xue Zha got up directly and bowed deeply to Sun Jin.
"Brother Sun, please allow me to call you that, I appreciate your kindness, but the younger brother really can't accept it, otherwise he will really be sprayed to death by someone else's saliva. ”
Before Xue Zha's words were finished, with a bang, Sun Jin slapped the table directly and got up.
"I see who dares!"
Xue Zha was frightened by Sun Jin's voice, mainly because he was thinking about something else just now, and he was suddenly frightened, and his body still trembled a little.
But this is not the case in Sun Jin's eyes.
This so-called person from the Dragon Palace was directly shocked by him, it seems that he, the monarch of the Wu Kingdom, will not be weaker than the one in the Dragon Palace.
Of course, these are all pictures made up by Sun Jin's brain, and people always like to engage in some words of self-comfort and self-encouragement at certain times.
However, Xue Zhe still planned to decline Sun Jin's kindness, because he saw a very unfavorable expression on the latter's face.
In Xue Zha's opinion, Sun Jin looked at him at this time, like looking at a beautiful woman who had been stripped naked, without any privacy at all.
Captain Jack put down his chopsticks and thought about it seriously, then spoke again.
"That's right, it seems that hearing is false, seeing is believing. ”
As soon as Captain Jack's voice fell, a vague momentum began to permeate Captain Jack.
Xue Zha also felt this momentum, and he was also stunned, but in an instant, the expression on his face was restored to the same as before.
"You seem to be unhappy with what I did, but don't you think it's useless?"
Xue Zhe smiled slightly and shrugged his shoulders, indicating that he was not affected at all.
Captain Jack applied a little pressure, but it turned out to be the same, which had to make him want to give up.
Xue Zha is indeed as uncommon as others say.
Captain Jack withdrew his mental strength, grabbed the jar and poured himself a glass of wine, he sighed slightly.
"I thought what others said was false, but I didn't expect it to be true, you are really powerful. ”
But as soon as Captain Jack's words fell, Xue Zha suddenly grasped a key point, "What others said."
Who said it, what it said, and why did it say it.
Three questions suddenly popped up in Xue Zha's mind, which made him even more curious.
"Captain Jack, I want you to tell me clearly how my name got to sea. ”
Xue Zhe didn't plan to ask on the side, he had to figure out who did it on purpose.
Xue Zha came to the sea because he was persecuted by others, and then finally arrived at the Holy Island, but he was expelled from the island without even turning around the island.
During this period, Xue Zha had thought more than once about why the Holy Courtyard was so cold to him, looking forward to coming over by himself, but he ignored him after he arrived.
Does this confirm the saying that what you can't get is the best thing?
Captain Jack saw Xue Zhe bowing his head and pondering, but did not let him wait too long, and said directly.
"How to say it, in fact, I don't know exactly where the news came from, but one thing is certain, that is, the news spread from the Sea Beast Pearl Trading Market. ”
This time it was Xue Zha's turn to be puzzled.
"Where is the Sea Beast Bead Trading Market?
Xue Zha always felt that there was something greasy in this, and it would even threaten the safety of his life.
But Captain Jack didn't seem to know very well, and he could only shake his head after frowning and thinking about it.
"I can't remember exactly, anyway, the news about you leaked out from the largest Sea Beast Bead trading market here, and it was nothing more than to promote the favor of the Holy Courtyard for you, but there was one thing that might be unfavorable to you. ”
Captain Jack took a few more mouthfuls of food and said.
"It is said that your appearance will have an unpredictable impact on the people at sea, whether it is good or bad, but I didn't believe this sentence before, but now I ......"
Captain Jack shook his head, raised his head and glanced at Xue Zha, not knowing what he was thinking.
"Who is the person who said such a thing? What is the purpose of the person who said such a thing? Could it be Sha Xinqi? Or is it some other enemy of mine? But he knows me well, and I don't want to live in peace at sea. ”
Xue Qi didn't have a clue when he thought about it, so he simply stopped thinking about it, picked up the wine bowl and continued to drink with Captain Jack.
"Okay, I won't tell you much else, since you come to help me, then I'll tell you the truth, I need an agent to help me take care of a sea area, but I will give you a way to attract sea beasts, and I will take seventy percent of the sea beast beads and materials obtained. ”
As soon as Xue Zha's words fell, Captain Jack slammed the sea bowl in his hand on the table.
"Brother Xue's appetite is really not ordinary, let me lure the sea beasts to hunt and kill, invest manpower and material resources, you will have to open your mouth for seventy percent, business is not like that. ”
Captain Jack picked up the chopsticks and threw some meat into his mouth, raised his hand to grab the wine jar and shook it gently, dropped the sea bowl directly, held the wine jar and poured it into his mouth.
Xue Zhe saw that Captain Jack was obviously dissatisfied with what he had just said, he was not angry, he also picked up the wine bowl in front of him, raised it to Captain Jack in the air, and then drank it all.
"Captain Jack is a smart man, you must be waiting for me to give you a satisfactory answer if you don't speak. ”
Xue Zha grabbed a jar of wine at his feet with one hand, and with the other hand, he directly opened the mud seal, and a mellow aroma of wine suddenly dispersed.
Captain Jack's eyes lit up in the direction of the wine jar in his hand, and his eyes kept staring at the jar of wine in Xue Zhe's hand.
"This aroma...... Could it be that the daughter of ten years is red!"
The jar of wine in Captain Jack's hand loosened and fell directly to the ground and shattered, but he looked at the jar of wine in Xue Zha's hand as if he hadn't noticed it at all.
Xue Zhe's eyes turned slightly, and his eyes narrowed when he saw that there was no more wine flowing out of the broken wine jar under Captain Jack's feet.
"It's easy to be an alcoholic!"
Xue Zha paddled the wine jar in his hand on the table, and raised his other hand to stop Captain Jack's tendency to snatch it.
"Wait, Brother Jie, this is indeed a jar of daughter red with a vintage, I am very sincere in cooperating with you, in this way, you listen to me, if you are not satisfied, then we will discuss again, but this jar of wine is Brother Jie's in the end." ”
Jack was very moved when he heard Xue Zhe's words, since the other party said so, he wanted to hear what Xue Zha would say.
Xue Zha smiled slightly, took out a porcelain bottle directly from the sea swallowing gourd and gently put it on the table, and pushed it in the direction of Jack.
Jack frowned, a little confused about what Xue Zha's meant, but he also reached out and grabbed the porcelain bottle in his hand, looked left and right to see that there was nothing special, and he was about to pull the cork.
"Brother Jie, if you accidentally drop the porcelain vase here, the scene of yesterday's siege of the island will be repeated here. ”
