The gloomy sky was filled with moisture, and outside the Wu Gate of the Inner City, the sound of horse hooves could actually be heard.
A rabbit with a broken leg limped through the crowd, escaping, and finally crashed into Li Mo's leg, out of strength.
A pair of small hands picked it up. The little rabbit looked up and saw the face wearing cool sunglasses, and its white fur stood on end.
"Li Dage, Ying Bing, a rabbit."
Jiang Chulong blinked and held it up.
Ying Bing glanced at it, and the rabbit, which had originally wanted to struggle, immediately shivered and dared not move.
"Li Dage, let's help it."
"Alright, then let's save half of it first. Should we save it as spicy or braised?"
"Li Dage, it seems to have fainted from fright."
"So spiritual?"
The medicine Li Mo took out with a stern face was actually a fragrant balm, which even made Xie Xuan speechless. Old Xie, aside from the sword on his body, wouldn't be able to buy this bottle of medicine even if he sold himself.
At this moment, the crowd parted. Xie Xuan looked back and saw Jiang Yu and his One line of people arriving on horseback. The Princes and Princesses were all dressed in military attire, seemingly returning from a hunt.
"My rabbit?"
As he passed by, the Fourth Prince saw Li Mo applying medicine to the rabbit, then checked his empty hunting pouch, his brow furrowing and then relaxing.
"Consider yourself sensible. I'll reward you with the rabbit."
"?"
Li Mo looked up, a question mark appearing above his head.
"No, who are you?"
Just as he was about to use his Tianming Divine Eye to look, Xie Xuan beside him said:
"This is the Fourth Prince. The Dijin's Qianjin Gambling House and Fengyue Small Building are all owned by him. Last time you won one to eight from him, Brother Li, didn't you go to collect it?"
Li Mo had been incredibly busy these past two days, his mind filled with investments, the Dao of the sword, or Ying Bing's jade legs.
He had originally placed the bet to give Xiao Jiang some confidence, and he truly didn't remember the small amount of money he had won.
"I forgot."
"Brother Li, you treat money like dirt, which is exactly like me."
Xie Xuan agreed wholeheartedly.
"How much money?" Zhong Zhenyue asked curiously. frёeωebɳovel.com
"Uh, sixteen gold mountains, four thousand xuan crystal." Xie Xuan said lightly, as if he truly regarded money as dirt. Zhong Zhenyue was struck by lightning, his eyes began to unfocus, and he muttered to himself, looking at the Eighth Prince.
"Give me the money, give me the money, you scoundrel."
Fourth Prince: "?"
"Hello, pay back the money. Although it's not much, what's due should still be collected."
Li Mo extended his hand, concise and to the point.
The Fourth Prince, like a dashing Young Master, narrowed his eyes. He had thought Li Mo was sensible, but he didn't expect him to actually dare to ask for it.
So why hadn't he mentioned this matter these past two days?
Could it be that he really didn't care about this money? Impossible, absolutely impossible!
"You don't have money, do you?"
Xiao Li looked at him with pity in his eyes.
This was the first time in the Fourth Prince's life that he had been looked at with such an impolite gaze. A vein throbbed on his forehead.
"You didn't come these past two days, and my silver has already been paid out to other guests. Tsk, I wonder what kind of gambler would dare to bet one to eight. Now, this Royal scion doesn't have any surplus food either."
With so many people watching, he couldn't just renege on the debt.
"If you don't have money, use something to compensate." Although it wasn't his own money, Zhong ✪ Nоvеlіgһt ✪ (Official version) Zhenyue was already starting to feel distressed.
"Fengyue Small Building is not bad," Xie Xuan thought for a moment and suggested.
The Fourth Prince was enraged and sneered, "Although Fengyue Small Building is under my supervision, I've also given a few shares to the Crown Prince. How about you go find him yourself if you meet him on the arena later? Otherwise, just wait."
"Oi, Jiang Yu, are you going to help him renege on his debt?"
Xiao Li completely ignored the threat within the words.
Jiang Yu: "?"
The murmuring immediately quieted. The Fourth Prince's expression froze, his soul flying out of his body. He hadn't expected Li Mo to actually demand the money on the spot.
"Give it to him," Jiang Yu said lightly.
The Fourth Prince opened his lips. Fengyue Small Building was not just an industry, but also a place where they interacted with high-ranking officials and nobles, serving as a platform to connect and gather relationships with many people.
Helping his elder brother manage Fengyue Small Building and maintaining relationships with high-ranking officials was his greatest use to Jiang Yu. If he became useless... But he swallowed, suddenly understanding Jiang Yu's meaning.
This was in Dijin.
Fengyue Small Building wasn't money, and it couldn't be taken away. After the Qianlong Assembly was over, who could afford to keep it?
"Here, take it. Don't beg me to give it back to you later."
The Fourth Prince took out the deed from his sumaru object. Before he could even throw it on the ground, Xie Xuan and Zhong Zhenyue, with quick eyes and hands, each grabbed one side.
"Holy cow, from now on, God Hammer Little Overlord will be the owner of the biggest brothel in Dijin?"
"Probably only for this short period..."
"Isn't it enough to be it for today! Several beauties on the Baihua List are in Fengyue Small Building. When I was a child, I had a dream of becoming the owner of the biggest brothel, closing the doors and playing however I wanted."
"No wonder God Hammer Little Overlord didn't hesitate to offend the Royal family for Fengyue Small Building. He wouldn't actually be planning that, would he?"
"Holy cow, Han Xianzi isn't pregnant, is she? How can he be like this, a scumbag."
Li Mo's mouth twitched when he heard their voices: "Ice Cube, you know my interests and hobbies. I plan to change that place."
"You plan to change it to..."
"That's right, a foot bath city!"
For the next stick of incense, the Royal family members occasionally glanced over here, until the sound of the morning bell rang, and various lights and shadows descended from the jiangshan sheji map.
Everything was the same as yesterday. The names drawn by golden beads were projected onto it.
【Huang Donglai vs. Ning Que】
【Li Mo vs. Zhong Zhenyue】
"It seems, Old Huang, whoever wins between you and Ning Que will have to fight Brother Li." Zhong Zhenyue's injury hadn't fully recovered.
Why say this? Because the competition was conducted in groups. These four were in one group and needed to determine the strongest one.
"I can't beat Ning Que. He just happens to counter me, because his martial arts are based on music. He doesn't need to catch up to me to hit me."
Huang Donglai shook his head.
"I only use a sword. It should take some effort to deal with this person."
Li Mo had seen Ning Que's performance.
Hearing this, Huang Donglai touched one of the bottles inside his clothes and fell into deep thought.
"Xiao Jiang is actually up against Brother Murong."
Li Mo was smiling, but suddenly his smile vanished.
Because the other pair of contestants in the same group appeared.
【Jiang Yu vs. Qu Songyun】
In other words, if Jiang Chulong won against Murong Xiao, her opponent would be Jiang Yu.
