Chapter 18: Betting
Lu Tianyang observed his words and looks, and immediately understood his thoughts, and secretly called, "Muyue. Pen % Fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Yes, master. Mu Yue had a heart with him, and as soon as his mind moved, Mu Yue understood his intentions, walked behind Wei Zhengcheng, and blew hard at the left side of his neck.
Wei Zhengcheng stared at Lu Tianyang intently, the cold on his neck seemed to be blown by the fragrant wind, and his whole body was shocked, he had practiced martial arts for many years, and reflexively released his right hand that was pressed on the money bag and slapped it to the left back.
Mu Yue had already retreated to Lu Tianyang's side, and Wei Zhengcheng's palm was naturally slapped in the air, of course, even if Mu Yue was standing behind him, this Wei Zhengcheng couldn't touch her with his bare hands, let alone hit her.
Lu Tianyang leisurely took the money bag in his hand and said with a smile: "Brother Wei, I understand your kindness." It's getting dark, the humble house is simple, I'm afraid that there is no place to call you to stay, you better go down the mountain as soon as possible to find an inn to stay. β
"You!" Wei Zhengcheng was shocked, and the expression on his face changed, but he quickly calmed down again, and said slowly: "Senior Brother Tianyang, this Chivalry Valley is where the master's hard work is, I heard that it was precisely because you impulsively took a group of juniors and disciples to find trouble with the Huashan Sword Sect that it caused the Chivalry Valley to collapse. If you continue to mess around as a brother, you will be ashamed of your love for Master......"
Lu Tianyang interrupted: "Oh, just now I seemed to hear that Brother Wei wanted to take my sister and mother back to Chang'an to enjoy happiness, and directly give up this dilapidated chivalrous valley, are you worthy of my father by doing this?"
Wei Zhengcheng didn't think that the gentleman had become so sharp and sharp-toothed before, and he was forced to be speechless for a while, he laughed dryly and said: "Senior Brother Tianyang misunderstood, I didn't mean that, I just want to take my junior sister and my wife back to Chang'an to live temporarily, and then bring them back when I revive the Chivalry Valley......
Lu Tianyang smiled even more cheaply: "I don't know what kind of plan Brother Wei has to revive my Chivalrous Valley? Oh, I heard that Brother Wei is also a wealthy nobleman in Chang'an, so he must have directly taken out 180,000 taels to rebuild the Chivalrous Valley, so I am here to thank Brother Wei for my father! I don't know when Brother Wei will send the silver taels?"
One hundred and eighty thousand taels! Wei Zhengcheng took a cool breath, this Lu Tianyang really knows how to open his mouth! Even if his Wei family is considered a rich and noble family in Chang'an City, it is extremely difficult to take out 180,000 taels of silver at once, not to mention that he still spends it on this dilapidated valley? His father is afraid that he will be so angry that he will drive him out of the house when he finds out!
Wei Zhengcheng said with a dry smile: "Senior Brother Tianyang, how can it be enough to revitalize the Chivalry Valley by directly investing silver taels? If you want to revive the reputation and status of the Chivalry Valley in the rivers and lakes, you have to rely on the exquisite martial arts passed down by the master. β
Lu Tianyang raised the broken bowl on the table, and said with a scoundrel face: "Brother Wei also saw it, the biggest problem in the Valley of Heroes is the lack of money now, and if you want to revive your prestige, you have to renovate the faΓ§ade first, okay? "Two days ago, the two remaining cups were broken by Xu Biao of the Changle Gang, and now Uncle Ling has taken two bowls from the kitchen to use as cups.
"What is the indiscriminate recharge?" Wei Zhengcheng had never heard of this idiom, but he could guess the general idea: "I'm afraid that the rebuilding of the Chivalry Valley will not be completed in ten days and a half months, the little junior sister is still young, and the senior sister is sick, so it is better to let them live in Chang'an temporarily, since the matter of the Chivalry Valley has to be shouldered by Tianyang's junior brother, he will naturally support it vigorously for the brother......"
Lu Tianyang smiled and said, "It seems that Brother Wei is good to my sister, but he is reluctant to invest money in this broken valley." β
Wei Zhengcheng was repeatedly stimulated and ridiculed by Lu Tianyang, and his face finally couldn't hold back, and he snorted lightly: "If the master is still here, it is natural for me to pay him filial piety and silver to repair the Chivalry Valley, but now I am afraid that I will invest money to repair the Chivalry Valley, and in the blink of an eye, I will be defeated by you, Senior Brother Tianyang." We remember your glorious history clearly, right, little sister?"
Xihan glanced at Lu Tianyang, bit his thin lip, and did not answer.
Lu Tianyang pretended to be abrupt and slapped his thigh: "Oh, it turns out that Brother Wei doesn't trust me Lu Tianyang for a long time!" An angry look appeared on his face, and he said angrily: "Brother Wei, do you think that I, Lu Tianyang, am a loser who can only make money and will not make money?"
Wei Zhengcheng didn't answer, it was a tacit acquiescence.
Lu Tianyang was suddenly "furious", slapped the table and said: "The surname is Wei, you actually underestimate me! Otherwise, I will make a bet with you, if you can't earn a hundred taels of silver in one day tomorrow, then I won't ask about this Xia Ke Gu in the future." If I can earn 100 taels tomorrow, you will have to lose 5,000 taels to me, what, do you dare to bet?"
Five thousand taels is not a small amount, Wei Zhengcheng couldn't help but hesitate. But looking at this Lu Tianyang's current appearance of being angry and ruined, he is still the same gentleman as before, it is easy for him to spend a hundred taels, and it is difficult for him to reach the sky if he wants to earn a hundred taels! Not to mention that as long as he wins, Lu Tianyang will not dare to say anything, won't he Wei Zhengcheng be the master of this chivalrous valley? At that time, how can this beautiful and lovely little junior sister in front of him escape from the palm of his hand?
Seeing Lu Tianyang's angry appearance, Xihan couldn't help but interject: "Hey, it's not a big deal, why do you have to bet with Senior Brother?"
Lu Tianyang blinked and said deliberately, "Sister, are you worried that I will lose?"
Xi Hanqiao's face was slightly red, and she said angrily: "The ghost is worried about you, I just don't want to...... I don't want you to have any unpleasant trouble with Senior Brother!"
She was already extremely beautiful and moving, and this slight cheek showed the shyness and cuteness of her daughter's family, Wei Zhengcheng was moved by it, and he said secretly: "The little junior sister has always looked down on each other with this kid, if I win the bet against this kid, maybe the little junior sister will think that I am speaking for her and be grateful to me, and then I will pursue her, wouldn't it be easier to succeed?" Thinking of this, he immediately said: " Okay, Senior Brother Tianyang, I will agree to gamble with you, but you can earn a hundred taels in a legitimate way, and it doesn't count as kidnapping or borrowing money. β
Lu Tianyang secretly snickered, his herbal tea business was too legitimate to make more legitimate money. He continued to pretend to be angry and said, "The surname is Wei, don't look down on people!
Seeing Lu Tianyang's angry appearance, Wei Zhengcheng was amused: "Okay, then use the words as a basis!"
Uncle Ling quickly found pen and ink, and the two parties wrote the gambling contract, signed and drawn, and each held a note.
Wei Zhengcheng rolled his eyes and asked, "Senior Brother Tianyang, then how do you plan to earn a hundred taels?"
Lu Tianyang was "stunned": "Uh...... This one...... I...... I'll definitely think of it!"
Seeing his dumbfounded appearance, Wei Zhengcheng felt that the victory was in his hands, and said proudly: "Don't worry, don't worry, there are still several hours until tomorrow, Senior Brother Tianyang think about it." β
Wei Zhengcheng got up to say goodbye after collecting the note, he approached Xihan's side, and said in a low voice: "Little junior sister, don't worry, see that my brother will take a bad breath for you tomorrow and kill that stupid boy's arrogance!"
Seeing him approaching her and saying bad things about Lu Tianyang, Xi Han felt disgusted for some reason, she frowned slightly, took two steps back and said lightly: "Senior brother is polite." β
Wei Zhengcheng thought that his little junior sister was shy, and he was even happier in his heart, so he reluctantly glanced at Xihan several times before striding away with the two family members.
Lu Tianyang walked over and said to Xihan with a smile: "Sister, this person surnamed Wei seems to like you a lot?"
