Bringing the Hokage legacy to the Nine Realms of Golden Light
Chapter 278 Zhuge Qiong
"Boss, why didn't you bring the oilcloth awning?" asked a coachman in the caravan.
"Forget about the oilcloth awning, there's not even an umbrella!" Another driver also complained with a smile.
"I saw a clear sky before, but who could have thought that a rain cloud would suddenly appear! If I knew who is trying to ruin my good fortune, I will definitely fight back!" The young man in red complained helplessly.
Already drenched in the rain, they could only continue to move forward slowly.
"Earth Escape: Dorenzhu Family"
Zhou Zheng directly used ninjutsu to build a spacious pavilion on the side of the road.
The sudden sound of the spellcasting instantly alarmed the team in front, and the young man in red immediately became alert when he sensed it.
"Come in and hide from the rain for a while!" Zhou Zheng called to them.
The atmosphere of this caravan is pretty good. When something happens, the coachman dares to joke with the boss who leads the caravan. At least this shows that the boss is not the kind of person who will not care about human life when exploiting others, and he is also very good to his subordinates, otherwise his subordinates would never dare to joke with him.
So Zhou Zheng was willing to help them.
Although the young man in red was a little hesitant, the people under his command didn't care and drove the car directly into the shed.
"That's great! Thanks for the greeting, little brother!"
"When did such a big shed appear here? Why didn't I see it before? If I had seen it before, I would have run a few steps faster, and maybe I wouldn't have gotten wet!"
"Let's check the goods on the truck first! Take out all the ones that got wet in the rain, at least let them air out and let the wind blow, so as not to affect the ones underneath!"
Several drivers started to get busy while talking.
"Thank you for your help!" The young man in red followed the convoy into the earthen shed, came to Zhou Zheng and expressed his gratitude to him.
"You know?" Zhou Zheng looked at him and said with a smile.
"I saw it! This shed appeared suddenly! I can tell at a glance that you are a man of great ability! You must be a well-known figure in this world! I wonder what your name is and where your hometown is? If I have the chance someday, I will definitely pay you a visit and thank you specially!" The young man in red praised and thanked him repeatedly.
"I just came back from overseas. I don't have a place to live yet, and I'm not a celebrity yet. My name is Fang Yuan. May I know what your name is, shopkeeper?" Zhou Zheng said. He didn't give his real name mainly because he didn't want people in the underworld to know that he had appeared. But since they asked for his name, he might as well say one, as a code name.
"My name is Zhuge Qiong, and I mean poor in an endless and boundless way!" said Zhuge Qiong, the young man in red.
The moment he heard the name, Zhou Zheng was surprised, but all the expressions on his face were well controlled, not showing the slightest surprise.
After practicing to this level, keeping calm has become instinct.
Zhuge Qiong is also a celebrity in this world and a major supporting role in a play.
Another thing is that some of his things are too famous.
For example, poor!
The business has been losing money.
In the original drama, the four major losses of food, clothing, housing and transportation corresponded to Canglang's wedding, but Xueshan Yinyan snatched the marriage, the wedding was cancelled, all the prepared ingredients rotted, and all the money was lost.
The wool that was imported from Miaojiang encountered a mutiny by the Second Brothers, and could not be transported across the border town thousands of miles away, so it had to be wasted.
When the escort was delivering goods, he encountered brainwashing by the locals. The escort betrayed him, the goods were lost, and he suffered a huge loss.
He regrouped, stopped running around, and built an inn. However, Emperor Yuan Xie caused a major earthquake, and the inn collapsed halfway through construction, resulting in another huge loss.
Before these four major losses, there were three more losses, which should be when the three villains, Yanmo of Xijianliu, Emperor Gui of Demon World and Lushimola of Shura Kingdom, were causing trouble.
But now that the Flame Demon is gone and the Demon World has not yet begun, his path to big compensation should be as easy to be robbed as it was during the Western Sword Flow.
Now that the Xijianliu is gone, they are slowly preparing to regroup.
I just didn't expect that I would be chased by rain clouds just now.
"No wonder you need to explain it specially! However, with your business name like this, coupled with the bad luck you're having now, it's hard for people to believe whether your poverty is endless or desperate." Zhou Zheng smiled and joked.
"I just wasn't prepared today!" Zhuge Qiongqiang explained to himself, and then he turned to the side to watch his subordinates work.
Move out all the goods, drain the water, put the dry ones away, shake the wet ones and let them air out.
"Aqiong, you should be a fellow traveler, and you have a good foundation. Why don't you use your own strength to avoid the rain?" Zhou Zheng asked directly, but he believed that he understood.
"Hmph! The sect has instructed that our abilities cannot be used to make money, otherwise bad things will happen!" Zhuge Qiong did not avoid the answer. He also knew that when facing a fellow human being, he could not hide his background from the strong man.
"Well~ I think you may have misunderstood this sentence!" Zhou Zheng said with a funny expression.
"Is there a mistake? How is there a mistake?" Zhuge Qiong couldn't figure it out.
"When your elders said that skills cannot be used to make money, they meant that they cannot be used to do bad things like a killer to make money. The way you make money now is by doing business, and you use your own skills to protect yourself. How can you say that they are used to make money? Don't you think this is the truth?" Zhou Zheng asked specifically.
At that moment, Zhuge Qiong seemed a little dazed, as if he was standing still.
Zhou Zheng came to his side and patted his shoulder.
“I believe that you can use the skills you have learned to protect your life and property. Even if you do it in front of your master, he will not say anything inappropriate!
"It can be seen that you must have encountered a lot of bad luck after leaving school! You are still so determined to do business cleanly, you are a very honest businessman!
"After this deal is done, if you are interested, I can introduce you to a place overseas where we can exchange what we have and what we need, and specialties. You will definitely make a lot of money!"
After saying that, Zhou Zheng walked aside. He had no intention of continuing to move forward in the rain. He made a set of table and stools in a corner and sat down to take a short rest.
But Zhuge Qiong just stood there, as if his persistence over the years was a joke.
"By the way, Aqiong, come and sit down. You have been in the caravan for many years, traveling all over the country every day. You should know the territories of many famous people in the martial arts world. I have something I want to ask you!" Zhou Zheng said, greeting him.
"What's the matter?" Zhuge Qiong also came over and asked.
"Do you know a number one scholar in the world? Oh, where does the number one scholar with the magic pen live?" Zhou Zheng asked.
"The No. 1 Scholar with the Magic Pen? The No. 1 Scholar with the Magic Pen, Fu Tianxing, right? I've heard of it. Your magic is pretty good. Help me build a few racks to dry the cloth and paper, and I'll tell you!" Zhuge Qiong said.
Zhou Zheng didn't waste any words. He formed seals with his hands, and in an instant, dozens of racks appeared in the shed, causing all the drivers and laborers to exclaim in surprise, and then thank them repeatedly.
"Can we talk now?"
"Xingyun Villa, just come with us this time. The paper in this car is to be sold to them!" Zhuge Qiong said.
