Chapter 22: Magic Ain't Free

In the Western-style living room, Angers and Andre listened to Chu Hao telling stories about the past.

After hearing that Friedrich went to Tongwan City to look for dragon veins, he couldn't help but ask:

"Didn't you try to stop him?"

"No, we want to let the foreigner explore the road first. Anyway, he is not one of our own, so he won't feel bad if he dies."

When Ange heard this, he finally couldn't help it. In his opinion, the Heaven and Earth Society must bear at least half of the responsibility for the secret party's destruction.

"Do you know who I am?"

Angers asked

"You are Freund's companion, that secret party member."

Chu Hao answered honestly.

The next second, Anger appeared in front of Chu Hao, with the folding knife on his neck.

"Since you know, you still..."

Chu Hao stiffened his neck and looked as if he wanted to kill or cut him into pieces.

"Fushi went to explore the dragon's veins of his own free will. If you want to kill him, you can kill him."

The folding knife trembled on Chu Hao's neck, cutting the skin and letting out a drop of blood.

Angre was silent for a long time, then a flash of sword light flashed...

Chu Hao's restraint was cut off by Angre.

Chu Hao did not get up and continued to sit on the chair and move his wrists.

"I thought you were going to kill me."

Angers shook his head and walked back to his original position.

"We need some help to kill Friedrich."

A smile appeared on Chu Hao's poker face, he patted his thigh and said, "Welcome to join us."

"Have you forgotten me?"

Ender watched an inexplicable scene from the sidelines. Anger suddenly wanted to kill Chu Hao, and the two suddenly cooperated, which really made Long confused.

But he still remembered what he wanted to do.

"That Chu...Xiong, let me ask you, you want me to help you blow up the dragon veins, right?"

"Exactly."

Chu Hao nodded repeatedly, and the joints on his neck made a clicking sound.

"Is there any reward?"

Chu Hao was a little surprised by Ander's snobbery and explained:

"Mr. Lu..."

"Just call me Ender."

Being called Mr. Cheng Lu all the time made me a little overwhelmed, so it was convenient to call him Ander.

"Mr. Ander, blowing up the dragon vein is Brother Lu's lifelong wish. As his elder, don't you want to inherit it..."

"He is him, and I am me. Don't use any hatred of family and country to suppress me."

Chu Hao didn't expect Ander to be so shameless and dismissive of Lu Shanyan's last wish.

"Without the dragon vein, the Lu family can rest assured..."

"I haven't even married yet, are you telling me this?"

Ender doesn't care whether the Lu family will flourish or not, he only cares about whether the future protagonist can be born.

"What do you want?"

Chu Hao began to doubt whether the prophecy brought by the 'real person' with his life was correct. This Ander was very powerful, but he was a villain who saw nothing but profit.

"Boy, let me tell you, just because Angers promised you, it doesn't mean that I promised you."

Ender put on an unruly look. He knew that even if his goals were consistent with those of the Heaven and Earth Society, he couldn't work in vain, let alone this time the Heaven and Earth Society came to ask him.

"There should be a lot of good stuff in your Tiandihui. I'm afraid you won't be able to use it if you blow up the dragon veins. Why don't you give it to me?"

Chu Hao looked troubled. The only things that Ander could call treasure were those ancestral alchemy items.

"Senior Ande, my Chu family is not the only one in the Demon-Slaying Hall of the Heaven and Earth Association. Those treasures are heirlooms of other families."

Ender looked displeased and wanted to hire him without spending a penny. What about fooling the dragon?

"But I can give you all the treasures of the Chu family."

Ender's brows relaxed. One family would do. He knew how rich these mixed-race families were when he was in Germany.

As for Meneke Cassel's Cassel family, they are descendants of the old Roman Zhengziqi. There is so much gold in the house that it can cover the floor, and all kinds of gems and antiques are piled from the floor to the ceiling of the warehouse.

.

Now there is a handful of various gems in Ender's space bag, all of which are quite large. They were all taken by Angers from Kassel's treasure house before.

It's okay to have a family. Ender is different from those evil dragons. He prefers to rely on his own labor to obtain wealth. If the Chu family is as rich as the Cassel family, no, even if it is only one-tenth of the Cassel family,

It's enough for him to build a comfortable dragon's lair.

But Ender, who was fascinated by the wealth, forgot one thing. The world would be driven like a dog by the Tatars. Even the money to explode the dragon veins had to go to Shanyan to earn from selling antiques. How could he compete with Kassel, who was so rich?

Family ratio.

Ander didn't think about this. He stood up with a smile, walked to Chu Hao, put his arm around his shoulders and said:

"Brother Chu, you are out of touch. Since blowing up the dragon veins is my eldest nephew's wish, how can I, the second uncle, sit idly by and do nothing."

Ander took an Angers coat from the hanger nearby and handed it to Chu Hao.

"Come on, it's so bad to be naked in this winter."

Chu Hao was still not used to Ender's changes, so he mechanically took the coat, held it in his hand, and explained:

"My Yanling is Yanling: Blazing Sun, which can glow from my skin, so I don't wear clothes most of the time."

Only then did Ander realize that this Chu Hao was just a human flashbang. It was difficult for a grown man to have such a clever mind.

"Okay, let's continue talking about remuneration."

Ander threw the coat in Chu Hao's hand to Ange and quickly changed the topic.

"You can get the reward after the work is done, but you still have to let me inspect the goods no matter what, just to satisfy your eyes."

Chu Hao saw Ander's thoughts and immediately replied without refusing:

"My Chu family's treasures are all in Shanghai. If you are free, I can take you there now."

It was still noon when Andre and Angers arrived at the Shanghai Stock Exchange, but now the moon and stars were thin, and it was almost midnight.

Ender didn't care about time. After all, he didn't care about making money. He didn't wake up early and was greedy at night.

At that moment, Ander pulled Chu Hao over and prepared to appreciate the heirlooms of the old Chu family.

"Ange, Brother Chu and I will go take a look first. Remember to look after the house."

Ange looked helplessly at the dragon that fell into Qian's eyes. Before, Ange was worried that Ander would cause trouble, but now it seems that he looks more Chinese than Lu Shanyan.

"What a strange dragon." Angers sighed.

After leaving the foreign hotel, perhaps because the foreigners around were used to holding dance parties at night, there were many rickshaw drivers parked on the roadside waiting to solicit customers.

Ander took out a green note, called a car, got in the car with Chu Hao, and walked all the way out of the city.

"Your home is quite far away."

The rickshaw was getting further and further away from the city center, Ander said casually.

Chu Hao said nothing, watching the rickshaw pass by one house after another until it stopped in front of an alley.

Ander paid the money, followed Chu Hao into the alley, came to the door of an ordinary private house, and knocked on the door.

"A burner of incense at Honghua Pavilion..."

A young woman's voice sounded inside the door, and Chu Hao responded:

"Ajie, it's me!"

The wooden door was opened immediately, and a figure rushed out of the room and hugged Chu Hao.

"Brother, you are finally back."
