Just when Xiong Wanjin smiled bitterly, the door of Xiong's house suddenly opened, and an old man who was extremely skinny, as thin as a reed pole, and as light as if he could fly away in the wind, walked out slowly and proudly.
This old man comes across as bitter, mean, stingy, and stingy, but he insists on showing off the demeanor of a wealthy and aristocratic family. However, a tiger cannot be compared to a dog. The more he pretends, the more people can see through it.
He has a guilty conscience and no confidence. Three words are engraved all over his body, and they are three shining words - nouveau riche!
It is indeed very explosive. Such a skinny old man is only about six feet tall, but he wears a two-foot-four-inch high black jade crown with twelve thumb-sized blood coral beads inlaid on it. These blood coral beads
Obviously they were all rare treasures. In the misty autumn rain, these orbs emitted a faint red light, and a warmth enveloped his whole body, and not even a drop of rain could fly close to his body.
He was wearing a blood-colored robe. Although the robe was blood-colored, it had a colorful halo. Lin Qi recognized this rare material. It was made of the blood-flame spider, a monster that survives in the volcanic magma of the abyss under the sea.
The satin woven from the silk has the effect after being blessed by magic. Not to mention the difficulty of catching the blood flame spider, just say that the satin woven from the blood flame spider silk has a defense power that is close to that of a mid-grade holy weapon. Just know that this one
How valuable the robe is!
The old man's belt is a blood-colored jade belt. The crystal clear jade is inlaid with twelve black gemstones the size of a baby's fist. It is an extremely rare black star diamond. This kind of diamond has extremely powerful space magic and is an extremely precious magic.
Material, but on his body, it is just an accessory on his belt.
Lin Qi didn't even bother to look at the eighteen huge black and red rings on the old man's fingers. Those rings all exuded a faint aura of mana. Obviously, these are extremely precious magic tools, even if they are equipped with a pig.
These magic weapons all have the power to defeat a high-level warrior in heaven head-on.
As for the old man's boots, Lin Qi covered her forehead. The nouveau riche's way of thinking was unreasonable. Are they still boots? They were clearly a pair of boats. A pair of boats more than a foot long, inlaid with gold and jade,
Lin Qi didn't know how many jewels were inlaid on them, but Lin Qi knew that the weight of this pair of boots was at least two hundred kilograms!
No wonder the old man walked very slowly, moving forward steadily with every step. It was really because his boots were too heavy, and he had to exert all his strength with every step to move those terrible boots under his feet.
What a respectable old man!
Looking at the jewels and jewels surrounding the old man, Lin Qi couldn't help but secretly curse. This old guy can live to this day without being kidnapped or robbed by robbers. This is really his luck! Or maybe there are no ruthless bandits like Blackbeard near Haicheng.
.There is another princess supporting the Xiong family. This is the main reason why this old guy can survive to this day.
The old man walked slowly to the door. He crossed the high threshold with difficulty and walked out. He stood on the ninth jade steps, looked down at Xiong Wanjin, and said majestically: "Wanjin, you are back? A bunch of beasts.
, what are you yelling about here? Huh? One gold, ten gold, one hundred gold, oh, a thousand gold is back too? What are you doing here?"
Xiong Wanjin took a deep breath, he knelt down with difficulty, pressed his belly against the ground in a state of embarrassment, and kowtowed to the old man three times while standing almost upside down: "My little boy, Wanjin, has seen your father... Please ask me, father."
Tell me, where have the children's personal maids gone?"
The skinny and explosive old man, the biological father of Brother Xiong Wanjin, and the cheap father-in-law of King Yingyi of Dinghai, Xiong Fugui blinked his triangular eyes desperately, and he stammered: "Your personal maid? Uh? It's those little girls.
?The ones named Jin Zhi'er, Jin Zhu'er, Jin Bao'er, and Qian'er? Uh...them!"
After laughing a few times, Xiong Fugui lowered his voice and said to Xiong Wanjin triumphantly: "Silly boy, those girls have grown up, they eat more, and there is more fabric used to make clothes for them, isn't it a waste?
Dad made the decision and sold them out, and he made a lot of money!"
Xiong Wanjin's face turned pale, and Xiong Fugui said proudly: "Your eldest brother is responsible for all this matter. Your eldest brother is still very capable of doing things. These girls are so smart that they sold a total of five
Fifteen taels of silver, when I bought them, I only spent fifteen taels, so this is a huge profit!"
Waving his hand lightly, Xiong Fugui said disapprovingly: "In a few days, you can go to the accountant to withdraw fifteen taels of silver and buy a few little girls to keep by your side. Buy those who are no older than ten years old. They
They eat less, but they can still do things, and clothing consumes less fabric. When they grow up and sell them when they are sixteen or seventeen, it will be a good profit!"
Xiong Wanjin stood up, staggered back a few steps, and bumped into Lin Qi's car with his huge body, almost knocking the car over. Lin Qi had a gloomy face, gently pressed Xiong Wanjin's shoulder, and said
The soft cyan light penetrated directly into Xiong Wanjin's body through Lin Qi's fingers, gradually nourishing his heart and calming his wildly beating heart.
Princess Qingli had tightly squeezed the handkerchief in her hand. A colorful light flashed in her palm, and the white handkerchief exploded into countless powders and flew away. Born in a royal family, Princess Qingli saw this
The royal family was familiar with the intrigues and deceptions of the Milo Sect, but this was the first time she had seen such a top-notch figure among the people.
Princess Qingli could no longer describe her feelings for Xiong Fugui and his son in words. She subconsciously glanced at the private guards gathered around the car, wishing she could give the order to chop all these top-notch fathers and sons into pieces.
Feed the meat sauce to the dogs.
"Father...you have passed!" Xiong Wanjin bit his lip and squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth: "Even if I am forced to cross the ocean to do business in the Western Continent, I have no intention of complaining to you.
, but you... your children have been taken care of by Jin Zhier and others since they were young. Instead of finding a family to marry for them, you sold them into a brothel..."
Xiong Fugui interrupted Xiong Wanjin's words, and he scolded dissatisfiedly: "Brothel? So you were sold to a brothel? What's wrong with that? Marrying into a good family, you can only sleep with one man every day, and then sold to a brothel.
Sleeping with different men every day, maybe they still want it? Being a bride every night, those romantic days, not to mention how happy they are!"
After saying this almost shamelessly, Xiong Fugui asked hurriedly: "Where is the payment? You took so many ships to the Western Continent, seven large ships, where is your payment? Or, what did you purchase from the Western Continent?
Come back with your precious things? Tsk, where’s the money?”
Talking about what he was worried about, Xiong Fugui lifted his feet with difficulty, walked down the steps step by step, and walked towards Xiong Wanjin with a smile on his face.
Xiong Wanjin looked at Xiong Fugui, who was walking toward him step by step with difficulty, and said word by word: "Father, my son went to the West to do business, and was almost killed by pirates at sea! Those pirates were hired by our Xiong family with huge sums of money, for this purpose.
Let the child never return to the East!"
Xiong Fugui turned his head and glanced at Xiong Yijin and others in astonishment. He frowned, and then smiled disapprovingly: "Wan Jin, you came back alive, isn't that great? Those pirates couldn't do anything to you, right?
?You said it was done by members of the family. You can’t talk nonsense without evidence! Our Xiong family has a big business, and we must value harmony. Only by having a harmonious family can we make greater fortunes and have more money!"
Xiong Wanjin shouted angrily: "The child almost died outside!"
Xiong Fugui shouted even more angrily: "But aren't you okay? Where's the money? Seven large ships, so much cargo, so much silk, tea, porcelain, and so much rouge and gouache, they are all top quality goods.
Where is the payment? Dad, where is my money?"
Xiong Fugui's triangular eyes widened. He stared at Xiong Wanjin and shouted: "First put the money into the account, first hand it over to the accountant, and then send the money into the warehouse. As for whether you are a pirate or not, let's take our time.
Isn’t it possible? Where’s the money?”
Lin Qi slowly said in the car, word by word: "Brother Xiong, I know I shouldn't say it, but I must say it, whether your father or several brothers, do you have such relatives?
They're all the same. You, don't take them too seriously! Just think of yourself as an orphan born and raised by heaven and earth, and just think of your whole family as dead, and don't think about them too much!"
Xiong Wanjin didn't say anything, while Xiong Fugui pointed at Lin Qi's car angrily and roared: "How outrageous! You are... uh, uh, uh..."
Only then did Xiong Fugui realize that Lin Qi's car was not suitable for ordinary people in terms of decoration and specifications. The nine-headed beast driving car had six pairs of wheels. The carriage on the car was round in the sky and several meters in length and width.
It is painted with a picture of the sun rising in the east and the sky full of stars, and the bottom is decorated with patterns of herbs and algae. This is a guard of honor that only royal princes and royal princesses have!
After all, his son-in-law is the King of Dinghai. How could Xiong Fugui not know what such decoration means?
Forcing a flattering smile, Xiong Fugui slowly bent down and said, "I'm sorry to hear you..."
Princess Qingli shouted coldly: "Since you are prostrating, you have to kowtow and salute. There is only one merchant in the district, and there is not even a Xianjue. If you dare to just bow to me, I will destroy your nine tribes!"
The four guards swarmed up and kicked Xiong Fugui hard on the leg. They pushed him down to his knees and pushed his head to the ground, knocking him so hard that the ground made a loud bang.
ring.
Xiong Fugui howled in pain and screamed: "Xiaomin's son-in-law is Prince Dinghai, Xiaomin's son-in-law is Prince Dinghai!"
Lin Qi said slowly: "Even if you are the father-in-law of the current emperor, you should kowtow to me first before talking!"
As soon as Lin Qi spoke these words, a malicious sneer suddenly came from the street in the distance: "You are so brave, you dare to say such things, are you really not afraid of annihilating the nine tribes?"
Pedestrians were in chaos on another street, and a large group of black-armored guards drove a red-painted car quickly. {Piaotian Literature www.ptwxz.com thanks all book friends for your support, your support is our greatest motivation}
