Chapter 36 Visit Seeing that the indenture had been torn up, Wu Jinliang's mouth almost stretched to the back of his head. He smiled and glanced at Lao Dong. He felt relieved to see that he was sensible. In fact, when he went to commit the fraud just now, he really didn't want to bring Lao Dong with him. To be exact, he didn't want Lao Dong to see it. But there was no way. He was unfamiliar with the place, and it was a bit difficult for him to find a place to sell related items in a short time, not to mention he had to find someone to pay the bill. Looking at the indenture contract that turned into slag on the ground, Bian Weikang breathed a sigh of relief and bowed to Shi Chun, saying: "Brother...don't worry, I will pay you back the money as soon as possible. I will write you a promissory note right now." He turned around and went to the house to find pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Shi Chun grabbed his arm and said, "Alright, it's enough that you have the intention. Forget the IOU. Don't I trust Brother Bian? If I don't trust Brother Bian, I won't lend you the money. There's no rush to pay back the money. Take your time. We'll tell you when you have the money." Lao Dong curled his lips and shook his head secretly. The boss is still the same boss. He is willing to do bad things but still does good things first. No matter what, he refused to take any IOU. Shi Chun waved his hand and told them not to send him off. Then he left happily with his men. But Bian Weikang still insisted on sending the person to the outside of Wuyou Pavilion and watched him for a long time before returning. As soon as he returned to the house and saw the beauty waiting for him, Bian Weikang couldn't help himself and went forward to give her a warm hug, but Xiang Lan'er held his arms and pushed him away. "Weikang, do you also think that just because I come from a brothel, you can be frivolous with me at will?" When Xiang Lan'er looked up, her eyes were already filled with tears. The once charming girl became so pitiful that everyone who saw her felt pity for her.

When this hat was put on, Bian Weikang hurriedly waved his hands to indicate that it was not his and asked Xiang Lan'er not to misunderstand. Xiang Lan'er didn't say much. She wiped her tears and went to find something silently. Then she pulled Bian Weikang to sit down and treated the wounds on his forehead and hands very virtuously. Bian Weikang was immediately immersed in happiness and warmth. Men are so easy to please... After descending the cliff, Dashitou could no longer bear it and asked Shichun, "Boss, why don't you want the IOU? Weikang over there has lost the ability to repay the money. Without the IOU, when will the fifty thousand gold be repaid?" After these words were spoken, Wu Jinliang just smiled and said nothing. Lao Dong also chuckled twice, but did not expose the truth in front of him. He planned to tell it to Dashitou later. Dashitou is not stupid. As soon as he saw the two people's evil smiles, he knew there must be some hidden cause... Bowang Tower in Zhaotian City is located at the exit of the canyon facing the lake. It is also embedded in the cliff, with magnificent eaves and a large scale. The flow of customers coming and going is not small. The "Bo" in Bowang Tower refers to the wide range of goods sold, just like a super large grocery store. Except for some shops selling homemade products, or specialized shops, or some special industries, such as Liyun Tower, Bowang Tower is involved in almost all the rest. Almost no one can compete with Bowang Tower in the same business. At this time, in a desk room on a high-rise building facing the scenery of lakes and mountains, the account books were neatly piled up and the furnishings were elegant. A graceful woman stood up from the desk, walked to the balcony and looked out into the distance. Her eyes and eyebrows showed her graceful temperament. Her beautiful appearance was matched with a goose yellow skirt that fluttered in the wind. Her skin was fair and translucent. She was as fresh as a tree of spring snow. She looked as beautiful as a painting in the beautiful scenery of high buildings and lakes. The girl has big eyes and looks like Xiao's mother. Her mother is none other than Lan Qiaoyan, who is in charge of the Shengyu Bowang Tower, and she is the Miao girl named Miao Yilan. Che Si was standing nearby and reported in detail the process of lending money to Shi Chun. After hearing what happened, Miao Yilan murmured to herself and repeated a few words, "If everyone in the world is heartless, what is the meaning of life? Mutual love is better than countless money..." There was yearning in her eyes as she looked into the distance, as if she was longing to find someone who could love her mutually. Che Si hurriedly explained: "Saying that he admires Bian Weikang's loyalty and righteousness is just a high-sounding excuse. He just wanted to earn the double money because of what Bian Weikang said about paying back the money." Miao Yilan turned her head to look at him and said with a smile: "Can't he really help us out just because of the four words 'loyalty and righteousness'?" If it was when she had just met that guy Shi Chun, she would definitely not have said such words, because when Shi Chun tried to get close to her, she felt that Shi Chun was trying to get close to her. Whether or not they were trying to get close to each other is another matter. The key point is that no matter how interesting Shi Chun behaved, no matter how much he tried to please her or make her happy, she still looked down on him. She knew from the beginning that there was no possibility between them. The huge difference in status was only one aspect. Deep down, she really couldn't accept the strange smell of those people in the exile land, and the dirt that couldn't be washed away. It wasn't that she disliked them. She could be friends with them on an equal footing, but she really couldn't accept them being her man. She thought that her moral values ​​were okay, and she didn't like to distinguish between people. But after going to the place of exile, she understood one thing: the gap between the poor and the rich really cannot be filled by morality. When she occasionally thought of this, she felt quite sad. Shi Chun's deliberate approach at that time also aroused the vigilance of his mother Lan Qiaoyan, who secretly checked Shi Chun's background at the first opportunity. The result surprised her mother. The first sentence she said to her was "that boy is a rare weirdo", and then she said with emotion that "he is a man of affection and righteousness".

She naturally wanted to ask what happened, and then her mother told her about Shi Chun's experience of growing up in Dongjiuyuan and eating at hundreds of people's houses. After he took control of Dongjiuyuan, he swore to everyone that he would always remember the kindness of everyone who squeezed food from their teeth, and would do his best to send everyone out. He promised everyone that he would be the last one to go out, and as long as there was still one person present who had not gone out, he would never leave. In the following years, he really kept his word and sent dozens of people out one after another. The number of people may seem small, but when compared with the time and geographical scope, even she knows that this ratio is really extremely high. But what her mother really wanted to tell her was that this was not the outside world, but a place of exile. The desire of those suffering natives to get out and change their fate was unimaginable to outsiders. No one knew how much blood had been shed under this desire, and no one knew how many corpses had fallen under this desire. What it means to have given up dozens of opportunities to leave over the years is hard for outsiders to imagine. The latest news said that Dong Jiuyuan sent out hundreds of people at one time, and Shi Chun was indeed the last one to leave Dong Jiuyuan. It was after she checked Shi Chun's background that her mother was no longer so wary of Shi Chun contacting her and she turned a blind eye to it. So, when Che Si told Shi Chun that he helped Bian Weikang because he was "loyal and righteous", Che Si didn't believe it, but she believed it a little, because her mother said that Shi Chun was a "loyal and righteous" person in his bones, so Shi Chun might have helped Bian Weikang for this reason. Therefore, the sentence "If everyone in the world is heartless, what is the meaning of life? Mutual love is better than countless money" also touched her heart. Che Si didn't know about those twists and turns, so he said affirmatively: "It's impossible, it's just an excuse, just to pay double. The problem now is that Bian Weikang has no ability to repay at all. What if Shi Chun can't pay back the 40,000 gold?" Miao Yilan smiled, "Even if he can't pay it back, you have to make him find a way to pay it back. Find him a job in Bowang Tower and deduct the money from his monthly salary until it is all paid. It is impossible to allow him to default on his debt." The reason why she asked Che Si to take the money to pay Shi Chun when she asked for a loan, and the amount was as large as 40,000 gold, was because of what her mother once said: If you really help such a kind and loyal person, he will never forget it. Of course, when she heard about borrowing money, she thought Shi Chun was in some emergency, because she had known Shi Chun for so long, but Shi Chun had never asked her for or borrowed anything, let alone money. "..." Che Si was somewhat dumbfounded. He couldn't even pay back the money, but he still helped someone find a good job? Can ordinary people enter Bowang Tower just like that? Is he asking people to pay back their debts, or is he paying back their debts? When he went in and out of the exile place, he also heard about Shi Chun pursuing this Miao girl. Could it be... No way? He couldn't help but secretly observe his words and expressions. At this moment, Lao Dong's voice was heard outside, "Miss Miao." Miao Yilan turned around and responded, "Come in." Lao Dong came in quickly, and when he came to her, he reported carefully: "Shi Chun is downstairs, and said he wants to visit you. Do you want him to send him over?" Not everyone can go upstairs to the Bowang Tower without permission. Miao Yilan smiled and said, "Come to think of it, we really do see each other once every three months. I didn't expect that I could still see each other after leaving the Prison of Life. Now that you're here, please come and invite me in." "Okay." Lao Dong hunched over his waist and turned away. Miao Yilan walked to the desk where she handled official business, reached out and touched the feather placed in the socket on the corner of the desk, and it immediately swayed like flying snowflakes. This is a kind of bird feather that is said to be almost extinct. Gently blowing on the feathers will give the effect of flying snow, which is very beautiful. Shi Chun gave it to her after finding it in the place of exile, saying that only she is worthy of such a beautiful thing. Later, she thought it was indeed beautiful, so she placed it on the corner of the table as a decoration. Sometimes when she felt tired and took a break from working at her desk, she would blow on it and appreciate it, which felt quite refreshing, so she brought out Shengyu to keep it company. In the lobby on the first floor, various sales areas were classified into categories. Shi Chun put his words into practice and asked Dashitou to take him to the stall selling books. There were so many different kinds of books that Shi Chun looked around for a while but didn't know which one to choose, so he asked, "Shopkeeper, which book is the best seller?" Seeing his tattered appearance, the guy couldn't appreciate it. When he saw that Dashitou, who was accompanying him, was wearing the same Bowanglou clothes as himself, he didn't say anything strange. He took a book from the bookshelf and threw it in front of Shi Chun. "This one is the best-selling one at the moment." Shi Chun took a closer look and saw the words "Mountain and Sea Lantern" on the cover. Without even looking at the contents, he decided, "Okay, this is it. Give me two copies." (End of this chapter)
