Chapter 461 Jin She Loves Talent (32)
Xu Wenyang, who got his "expected answer", felt mixed emotions. Envy and jealousy immediately surged in his heart, but he was mostly relieved.
After all, no matter what, having a "powerful" "fellow countryman" is always better than having a powerful enemy out of nowhere to cause trouble for yourself.
So, he secretly made a decision to find a suitable opportunity to visit Chu Yunfan in the next few days.
On the other side, Chu Chuan, who had just walked out of the restaurant, couldn't help but turn his head and curiously asked Chu Yunfan beside him: "Master, what exactly did you mean by what you just said?"
Chu Yunfan frowned slightly, thought for a moment and replied, "In fact, I don't quite understand the deep meaning of it, it was just a flash of inspiration in my mind at the time, so I answered like this.
But judging from the current situation, this sentence seems to have had a good effect. Xu Wenyang obviously misunderstood my identity."
Chu Chuan was not impressed by this, and said with a curled lip: "In my opinion, this person is just a poor scholar, and he is of no use at all."
However, Chu Yunfan did not look down on Xu Wenyang like Chu Chuan did. He always felt that this seemingly ordinary person must be hiding some unknown secrets, and these secrets were very likely to contain huge value.
However, he did not explain much about this matter, and then walked into a weapons shop.
At this time, Zhao Landong, who had been waiting for a long time, saw Chu Yunfan finally show up, and his heart finally settled down.
She let out a long sigh and said angrily, "Oh, I thought you regretted not coming!"
Chu Yunfan smiled and said to Zhao Landong: "It's just a weapon, there's nothing to regret."
"That's fine. I want this scimitar." Zhao Landong pointed at the weapons on the shelf. "It's small and exquisite. It suits me very well. I just tried it and it's quite handy."
Chu Yunfan was a little surprised. After all, there were many styles of scimitars here, and the one that Zhao Landong liked was the simplest.
Most of the other scimitars are inlaid with precious gems or have some accessories.
As if seeing Chu Yunfan's confusion, Zhao Lanqiu explained for his sister: "My sister lived in the border for a period of time when she was young, and only returned to the capital in recent years. The gems there are relatively cheap.
So she doesn't take it seriously, and my father taught us since we were young that knives and swords are sharp weapons for killing people, and the worst thing to do is to avoid them being flashy and useless."
"Ms. Zhao, I heard you are good at using a gun." Chu Yunfan picked up a long spear made of fine iron and said, "I wonder if you like this one!"
"I like it, I like it!" Zhao Landong quickly answered for his sister, "My sister has always wanted to have a spear made of fine iron. You are really a good person."
Chu Yunfan smiled, and then asked Chu Chuan to pay the bill.
Zhao Lanqiu finally accepted his gift, firstly because she really liked it, and secondly because she felt that Chu Yunfan seemed to be asking for something.
Thinking that he must be a good person, I went along with it and accepted his favor.
Yin Anbang accompanied him throughout the whole process without saying much.
After Chu Yunfan parted ways with a few others, he rushed back to the Duke's Mansion.
When only he and Chu Chuan were left, Chu Yunfan spoke: "If Xu Wenyang comes to see me these days, let him in."
"No way! This guy has stolen your girl, young master. He is just a commoner, but he dares to come to the Duke's Mansion to find you. Isn't he a little too bold?" Chu Chuan didn't quite believe that the other party would come.
Chu Yunfan smiled and said, "I have already put down the bait. The fish will definitely take the bait. It is just a matter of time."
As he expected, on the third day, Xu Wenyang came to the Duke of Chu's Mansion.
Chu Chuan followed his master's instructions and took the other party to the side hall for receiving guests.
Then he served Xu Wenyang tea and snacks before leaving.
Xu Wenyang drank the tea and ate the exquisite snacks, and couldn't help but sigh to himself, "It's still good to have status! When I came here, I was a poor man with nothing, but my fellow countryman is a Duke whose parents have both passed away.
It's true that comparing people makes you angry, and comparing goods makes you throw them away! "
He thought he was the only one who knew what he said, but he didn't know that walls had ears. Chu Yunfan and Chu Chuan were next door at the moment, listening to him talking alone.
The two looked at each other, obviously not knowing what "coming through" meant, but from Xu Wenyang's words, it could be seen that he regarded Chu Yunfan as the same person as himself.
Chu Chuan thought about the abnormal behavior of his young master in recent times, and couldn't help but feel a little doubtful - could it be that his young master really was "transmitted from another world"?
Chu Yunfan didn't look at his butler's eyes, so he didn't know that the other party had begun to suspect him. He didn't even turn his head, but said worriedly: "Uncle Chuan, I always feel that this person must know some big secret. How do you think I can deceive him?
Let him completely believe that I am his 'fellow countryman' and be willing to reveal his secrets! "
