From a freeloader to a world leader

"Mr. Wang, the eldest brother and sister-in-law of the Wang family, I have heard of you for a long time!"

When Wang Ziping saw Sun Shan dressed in swordsman's attire and looking very ambitious, he didn't know what to say.

You say he is a scholar, but he is just like the people in the world, very heroic and even a bit vicious.

You may say he is a gangster, but he is indeed a scholar.

In theory, with the current strength of the Wang family in Hengzhou Prefecture, not to mention a scholar, even an ordinary juren would have to stay away from the Wang family.

However, it was this copper pea that could not be steamed, cooked, pounded, or fried, and made a loud noise that smashed the shell of its home that had stood in Hengzhou for hundreds of years into pieces, forcing it to use its last killer weapon.

"What a handsome young man! If Lingzhi hadn't been betrothed to someone else, I would have given her to Mr. Sun as a concubine."

Wang Ziping looked Sun Shan up and down, raised his hand to signal Sun Shan to sit down, and praised him with smacking his lips.

In fact, Wang Ziping's words have several meanings.

First, she tried to sow discord between Sun Shan and the Zhang family, implying that with the capital of the Zhang family, their daughter was at most worthy of the status of a concubine.

Then, he would secretly investigate the relationship between Xie Meiyu and her daughter and Sun Shan. In case things improved, he would see if it was possible to give the granddaughter returned from the Luo family to Sun Shan as a concubine.

"Mr. Wang has given me such a high esteem. How can a mere scholar like me deserve such kindness from you?"

Sun Shan seemed not to have heard the implication of Wang Ziping's words. He pulled the chair open and sat down.

Then, he glanced at the faces of Wang Dashan and his wife.

He laughed and said, "Brother Wang, have you been overworked recently? You don't look very well."

This is so fucking infuriating. It was clearly you who punched him that day, and he still hasn't recovered.

"Cough, cough cough-----"

Wang Dashan coughed several times in succession, feeling so angry that he vomited all over the bad guy's face.

Xie Meiyu hurriedly picked up the teacup and brought it to Wang Dashan's mouth to help him calm down first.

Then, with a pair of watery peach blossom eyes, he glared at Sun Shan with a hint of anger: "Mr. Sun, your words are meaningless. My master and old man are both sincere in making friends with you, so you have to be sincere as well."

"sorry!"

Sun Shan pretended to be a little ashamed when he heard this, poured himself a cup of tea, and toasted to the father and son of the Wang family: "I'm sorry, old man and Brother Wang, I'm young and reckless, and I don't know how to speak or act properly."

"it's okay no problem."

Wang Ziping smiled and clinked his lips with Sun Shan, then with Zhang Yushan. "Mr. Zhang, you are so polite. Let's talk it over today. From now on, we will go our separate ways. What do you say?"

"Of course I have no objection. Young Master Sun has the final say in our Zhang family now."

Zhang Yushan watched the performances of several people and felt deeply that they were the kind of people who smiled happily on the surface but stabbed others in the heart.

On the surface, the Wang family's proposal for a meeting was to apologize to Sun Shan and to resolve the feud between the two families.

In fact, they both wished the other dead and were looking for an opportunity to kill each other.

Everything in front of me is a smoke screen.

He and Sun Shan came here to confuse the other side and delay some time so that their temporary team could become stronger.

Zhang Yushan observed the team led by Sun Shan every day and found that Sun Shan had great talent for leading troops.

It took him less than half a month to train those lazy fellows in his family and the Sun family members who had just pulled their legs out of the mud into good working order.

If Sun Shan were really allowed to lead the team, Zhang Yushan believed that within a year, these peasants would be able to rival the fierce soldiers in the army.

"Hehe, Mr. Sun is really a talent!"

Wang Dashan finally calmed down and gave Sun Shan a thumbs up. He was too lazy to say any more to this stubborn guy, so he just made things clear.

"Mr. Sun, let me be frank. My Wang family has fallen into your hands twice. My Wang family has accepted the consequences."

"Nothing, just friendly communication, everything will be fine."

Sun Shan waved his hands leisurely and asked suddenly, "It's just that the matter about your second son has been said. The matter is not over yet, so there must be an explanation."

"Of course, of course."

Wang Dashan pretended to smile awkwardly, exchanged glances with his father, and said with a distressed look: "Mr. Sun, it's like this. Our Wang family has been spending a lot these days, and it's hard to get the 1000 silver together for the time being."

As he spoke, he saw that Sun Shan's face looked a little unhappy. Before Sun Shan could speak, he rushed to say, "Of course, what I said is nailed to the ground. Mr. Sun, how about this? We have a yard in the southeast of the city, and we will use it as an apology to you. What do you think?"

In this world, people are very particular about what they say.

Believe in the existence of gods in heaven and keep your promises.

Basically, their words are well-written and their words count.

If a person does not keep his word, not only will outsiders look down on him, but even his own family members will feel it is a shame.

Of course, there are a very small number of people who are habitual deceitful.

However, these people with bankrupt credit are basically wandering vagrants or gamblers.

"It's not that I can't, but what about the size and layout?"

As he spoke, Sun Shan glanced at Xie Meiyu inadvertently.

She just nodded her head barely noticeably to indicate that she was OK.

"It's a large courtyard with three entrances. I don't need to mention its layout and location. It's next to Wangfujing on the east side. It's very quiet and very suitable for someone like you who likes reading and acting."

"A three-courtyard house? That's a suitable size. I'm planning to settle down in Hengzhou Prefecture." Sun Shan said, "It's settled then. I'll ask my cousin to go with you to complete the formalities today. From now on, we'll cut ties and go our separate ways!"

"Okay, it's a deal!"

Seeing that Sun Shan agreed to his plan, Wang Dashan waved his hand with a look of heartache and high-fived Sun Shan. "At 2:45 pm, you can send someone to the household department to find my second brother. We, the Wang family, will consider you as our friend. I hope that Master Sun will be promoted to an official one day in the future and will let our Wang family go."

Wang Dashan said with regret: "The courtyard in the southeast was originally intended to be given to Lingzhi. At the beginning, it cost three or four hundred taels just to decorate the courtyard. If I wasn't short of money and wanted to make friends with Mr. Sun sincerely, I wouldn't be willing to give it up."

After having been in Hengzhou Prefecture for a month, Sun Shan certainly knew what Wangfujing was like.

Not to mention the decoration of the three-courtyard house, the land and the house alone are worth 1000 taels of silver.

However, the Wang family might have snatched this yard from someone else, so there might be something fishy about it, so they transferred it to themselves.

It's up to you. As long as the procedures are complete and it's in your hands, can you still spit it out?

Although, the Wang family may be trying to delay the attack and show weakness to confuse the enemy, in order to let down their guard.

But is there any other meaning?

Just when the two families had reached an agreement and were preparing to go their separate ways, Xie Meiyu gave a covert wink.

Sun Shan immediately understood that Xie Meiyu must have some confidential information to tell him.

then what should we do?

How can I avoid the eyes of other members of the Wang family and take it over secretly?

Sun Shan thought for a moment, slowed down his pace, turned around and said to Xie Meiyu, "Why didn't Lingzhi come yesterday? Is there anything wrong with her?"

The father and son of the Wang family were embarrassed by these words, and secretly cursed this boy for being shameless. He had just taken someone else's yard and was thinking about his woman!

"What's it got to do with you?" Xie Meiyu, who was following Wang Dashan, widened her peach blossom eyes and angrily scolded, "You are such a jerk. I said I would give you my daughter in the future, but you complained about it. Now you ask about me after not seeing me for a day."

Seeing that Xie Meiyu was a little angry, the Wang family father and son were quite happy, but they did not slow down their pace.

He surpassed Sun Shan in an instant, and when they passed each other, Wang Dashan patted Sun Shan on the shoulder to show encouragement.

"I'm just asking. Maybe one day you and I will become relatives again. Who knows?"

"You really deserve a beating!"

Seeing that Wang Dashan and his son had surpassed Sun Shan, Xie Meiyu raised her arm and patted Sun Shan on the shoulder, and instantly handed the note in her palm to him: "I don't want to bother with you. If you have the guts, come and propose marriage. If you don't have the guts, shut up!"

"I'm just asking. Look, you're getting anxious. If you have the ability, don't come and listen to my show."

Sun Shan held the note in his palm and made a teasing remark to Xie Meiyu who angrily walked past him and followed the Wang father and son away.
