Chapter 77 Two Men
Chapter 77 Two Men
At dawn, Qiao Zien woke up Chen Ruotong. The city gate was open, and the two walked into the city. The soldiers guarding the city knew the fourth son of Chen, so they nodded and smiled and let them in.
The two hired a carriage back to Chen's house and went back to their own rooms to catch up on some sleep. They were both exhausted that night and fell asleep as soon as they lay down.
Chen Ruotong slept until the afternoon and then woke up from the space. She wanted to take inventory of the gold and silver treasures she had collected to see how many there were so that she would have an idea of how much there was.
The gold, silver and treasures were piled up in a long corridor. How could she count them? There were too many. She couldn't count them all even if she died of exhaustion! Now, she was really a billionaire. Without counting, she should be the richest person in the Daliang Dynasty. Endless gold and silver, endless wealth and splendor!
What business is there for? Now she has the capital to lie down completely. Chen Ruotong lies in the pile of gold and silver and giggles foolishly!
After the fun, she stood up and looked at the mess of gold and silver treasures, and she was worried. It was too messy, and she had to tidy it up, classify it, and put it in boxes!
Chen Ruotong used her mind to find some wooden boxes for packaging from the warehouse, and then used her mind to pack the gold and silver into boxes. A total of 366 boxes of gold, 500 boxes of silver, and 300 boxes of various agate jewelry were packed. Add to that the 22 wooden boxes that were collected in the red room earlier. A total of 1,188 large boxes! The number is very auspicious, it's simply too shocking!
She put more than a thousand boxes in the big warehouse, thinking that they would not be used, and she could not spend all the money she earned from business! She had no concept of silver and money now, there were too many, and she was too lazy to count or calculate, and it was just a long string of numbers.
Chen Ruotong looked at the tidied warehouse and nodded with satisfaction. She decided to take a rest and go find Brother Xiaohai later.
She came to Qiao Zien's room. Qiao Zien had already woken up, washed up and was about to go out.
Chen Ruotong said with great joy as she entered the room: "Zi En, we are very happy to work together for the first time. We found the wealth together, so I will give you half. But it is too much. Where would you keep it safely?"
Qiao Zien smiled and said, "Of course it's safest to keep it with you. I can ask you for it whenever I need it. Besides, there are too many and I can't use them all. I don't need that much. Just give me 10,000 taels of silver for now. It's convenient to carry with me."
"No big deal," Chen Ruotong took out a silver note of 10,000 taels out of thin air and handed it to Qiao Zien.
Qiao Zien took the banknote with a smile, "I'm hungry, I haven't eaten yet!"
"What do you want to eat? We have everything!"
The two sat at the table and ate beef noodles. Chen Ruotong also admired this kid. A bowl of beef noodles made him feel like he was eating a full banquet. He was really a good kid who was content with what he had!
In the capital, in an inconspicuous courtyard.
The wealthy Wan Baocai jumped off his horse and went into the inner room. This house was uninhabited and uncared for. It was a small courtyard that Wan Baocai bought in the capital, and it had a very special purpose.
Wan Baocai rode for most of the night and was exhausted. He wanted to lie down and rest, but he was covered in dust and sweat. He couldn't stand the sticky feeling. So he had to fetch firewood and water to boil water for his bath.
Everything was ready. He took off all his clothes, soaked in the bathtub, took a comfortable bath, changed into clean clothes, and lay on the bed for a good sleep.
It was already evening, and after a day's sleep, Wan Baocai felt refreshed and recovered his strength. He dressed up and shaved off his mustache. Without the beard, Wan Baocai looked ten years younger, like a strong young man in his twenties, very handsome!
He was about to meet the sweetheart he had been thinking about day and night, how could he not be excited? He was full of strength, and he wanted to show his best side to his sweetheart.
Wan Baocai lifted a wooden board on the bed, entered the secret passage, and walked for a quarter of an hour before reaching his destination. Just as he was about to knock on the wooden board, he heard the creaking sound of the bed, as well as the woman's panting and the man's roar. It was obvious that the man and woman were having sex!
He felt a green grassland above his head, and a thousand alpacas were galloping past! He closed his eyes, bit his lips, and clenched his fists so hard that his nails scratched his palms.
He suppressed his anger and impulse at the moment. After a moment, the sound stopped. Then he heard the man's voice: "Liu'er's body is still so soft, it really makes me feel like dying. Did I hurt you?"
The woman said, "Your Highness is still strong despite his old age. He is still as energetic as ever. I am also traveling far away from home!"
Wan Baocai was so angry that his eyes were red with anger. He really wanted to draw out his dagger and stab the bastard to death with one blow.
That man has occupied his beloved woman for more than twenty years. If he wants to see her, he has to ride through two cities and travel a hundred miles to meet her, and date her secretly. She is obviously his wife, but they cannot be together openly. How frustrated must he be?
But he had no choice, he had to endure it, for the sake of their son, he had to pretend to be that man's friend, and also give him money. All this was for their son. Soon, he would no longer have to endure it, and the world would change soon!
I only heard the man say, "Xian'er has found the whereabouts of the treasure. He is leading a group of people to look for it. I estimate that it will take a year or so to find it, right?"
The woman said, "Your Majesty, Xian'er is your own flesh and blood. How can you bear to let him go to a dangerous place to search for treasure? I would rather let him stay in the palace than let him take risks!"
"Xian'er is a capable man, skilled in martial arts and intelligent. He is already a young man, so he should be allowed to go out and gain some experience. That position will definitely be his in the future. How can he grow up without going through hardships?"
The woman said coquettishly, "Well, Your Majesty is right. I will obey Your Majesty!"
"Liu'er, my little darling, I have some government affairs to attend to, so I have to go. You can go to bed now!"
"When will the prince come to Liu'er's place to spend a night of love again?"
"Liu'er, let's do it next month. I'll bring you something good next time!"
Wan Baocai was downstairs. After waiting for a long time and hearing no other sound, he knocked on the bed three times, one loud and two weak, but there was no response.
He gently pushed open the bed board, lifted the quilt, and seeing that there was no one in the room, he crawled out and went around to the side room.
I saw a young woman in her twenties bathing. She was extremely beautiful, with long black hair hanging outside the tub like a waterfall, skin as white as snow, eyebrows, eyes, nose and lips like a fairy in a painting, and a posture like a fox, alluring and captivating. Which man could resist such temptation?
Wan Baocai seemed to have lost his soul. He slowly walked to the bathtub, took off his robe, and knelt down to bathe her.
Yang Liuyi's eyes were red and tears were streaming down her face. Her expression made people feel distressed and sympathetic!
"Yier, I'm here. I know you're feeling miserable. You obviously hate that guy so much, but you have to pretend to be nice to him and commit yourself to him. It's all my incompetence. It's all my fault! Wuuuu..." Wan Baocai cried and slapped himself in the face.
Yang Liuyi grabbed Wan Baocai's hand and cried, "Brother Bao, don't be like this. I know you feel wronged, but there is nothing we can do. He is the regent of the Liang Dynasty. Who can afford to offend him? For the sake of our virtuous son, we have to endure the humiliation!"
The two hugged each other and cried bitterly!
