Summary of the previous chapter: Ma Xiaoquan once again went to the merchant gathering place to "inspect"...
Ma Xiaoquan snorted coldly and said: "You damn fat man, your wishful thinking has actually hit me. Do you believe that I have taken the blame for your whorehouse?"
The fat businessman is also a man who has experienced the world. When Ma Xiaoquan said this, he could tell that the other party did not have a strong angry tone. The fat businessman chuckled and said: "Sir, the little one is very well-behaved."
"Humph, you bitch, of course I know what you are thinking. You want me to save your son, but you don't want to spend more money. How can there be such a good thing in the world? Well, but you damn fat guy is very good at things.
You are smart and have some tricks. I admire you very much. How about you take this opportunity to join me? Not only will you not have to pay the management fees of this business gathering place in the future, but I can also take care of your son.
Help you get out!"
The fat businessman was stunned. He didn't expect Ma Xiaoquan to woo him so openly and directly.
"Sir, this..."
Ma Xiaoquan stretched out his hand and said: "Don't give me anything to think about. You know better than me what kind of person your son is. As for you, you are engaged in human trafficking in my gathering place. I
I can tell you very clearly that Wei Zhongxian has many methods of torturing people. With your son being raised like a pampered child, he probably won’t need much punishment. Naturally, he will tell you everything. Don’t say it’s him then.
Even you and I will be implicated. Of course, I am a believer in the king now. I can at most fine you some money to settle the matter, but someone has to take the blame..."
Of course the fat businessman understood what Ma Xiaoquan meant. Although he felt helpless, he was a businessman and Ma Xiaoquan was an official.
Thinking of this, the fat businessman gritted his teeth and said, "Sir, what do you think I should do? How can I save my son?"
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled: "Why, are you willing to submit to me?"
How could the fat businessman not know the meaning of Ma Xiaoquan's question? He knelt down in front of Ma Xiaoquan and said: "Your Majesty, please accept my obeisance!"
Ma Xiaoquan raised his lips and waved his hand: "Okay, get up. Well, since you have submitted to me, then naturally the business you are doing now must also belong to me. You can't regret this?"
The fat businessman's heart was bleeding, and he regretted it so much. If he had known better, he would not have expressed his stance so quickly, ugh...
However, once your attitude has been expressed, you can’t go back on it, right?
"Sir, you can say whatever you want, as long as you can save my son, you can pay any price..."
Ma Xiaoquan nodded and said, "Okay, I will make arrangements. You are still responsible for the business you are currently responsible for, but every month, I have to see the account books and the numbers in the accounts. Well, as for your son, I have already arranged for someone to do it."
Go and save."
The fat businessman was surprised: "Sir, it turns out you knew this a long time ago?"
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled and exclaimed: "I told you, my ability is much greater than you think!"
The fat businessman nodded and said respectfully to Ma Xiaoquan: "I'm convinced, I'm convinced!"
Ma Xiaoquan said: "Okay, where is that pretty girl? Take me to see her."
"yes!"
...
As soon as he finished speaking, a slightly stiff voice floated over: "No need, I'm out already."
Ma Xiaoquan turned his head and saw that it was the lustful girl. He shook his head with a smile and asked, "Did you hear the conversation we just had?"
The other party shook his head: "What did you say?"
Ma Xiaoquan winked at the fat businessman, who withdrew respectfully.
Ma Xiaoquan stepped forward, gently patted Semu Nu on the shoulder, and said, "You really didn't hear me?"
The se-eyed girl chuckled and whispered: "Sir, I dare say that you have absolutely no idea about the arrest of Uncle Zheng's son."
Uncle Zheng in the mouth of the lustful girl is the fat businessman. The fat businessman's real name is Zheng Wei.
"Haha, what do you think?" Ma Xiaoquan asked.
The lusty girl didn't make any sound, but just made a gesture of invitation, meaning to go to the boudoir to talk.
Ma Xiaoquan understood. The two came to the boudoir and closed the door. Ma Xiaoquan asked: "By the way, I still don't know your name after so long?"
Semu Nu raised her head and said with a smile: "You Han people call us people who look different from you Semu people, right?"
Ma Xiaoquan nodded, looked at the other party's beautiful blue eyes, and smiled.
"My name is Lisa Groot, you can call me Mrs. Lisa from now on."
"Mrs. Lisa?" Ma Xiaoquan smiled, "Are you married? Do you still dare to call yourself madam?"
"No, I am not married. I have already sworn to God according to your Han tradition that I will only follow you for the rest of my life!"
"Huh?" Ma Xiaoquan said blankly, "When did you swear the oath?"
Lisa smiled slightly: "After the last time we met."
"This, this is the second time we meet, why do you..."
Lisa shook her head: "You are an excellent man. Combining with you will not only be in the best interests of you, but also our family. Of course, I am not with you because of this reason, but because of me."
Falling in love with you!"
Ma Xiaoquan was helpless. This foreign woman was so direct. It was really hard to accept her words.
"Haha, family? Lisa, right? Do you know who I am and what role I play in the Ming Dynasty? And the family you are talking about, from your tone, it seems that your family is also very powerful?"
Lisa nodded and said proudly: "My grandfather's grandfather is the pride of our family. However, due to the war, we have been moving around in various countries since my grandfather, and my father has been reluctant to let me get married.
You want me to marry a strong man in this world!"
"The strongest man in the world? Haha, your father praises me too much, right?"
Lisa shook her head: "No, father doesn't know about you. It's my own decision to follow you, because I think I would rather marry a man I love than such a marriage!"
Ma Xiaoquan smiled and shook his head: "Then do you think I will love you? Have you never thought that I might not love you?"
Lisa nodded: "I have thought about it, but so what, I have confidence in myself. Even if adults don't love me, they can definitely like me."
Ma Xiaoquan was speechless.
"Okay, the love between us can be put aside for the time being. Let me ask you, what you said, um... you should be called the Groot family, right?"
Lisa nodded.
"How many people are there in your Groot family now?"
