Seeing that things were going well, Shang'er hurriedly added, "Ah Cheng, I can help you make money, and I can help you pick a woman. Most importantly, I'm most familiar with the Liubei Chamber of Commerce. Just let me come back. Ten taels of silver it is. I don't think it's too little. "
She had already thought it through. As long as she could return to the Liubei Chamber of Commerce, she could casually make a deal and eat a lot of money.
Ning Cheng originally didn't want to say anything, but after hearing her say this, he couldn't help it.
"You can make money? All the money you've embezzled from the Liubei Chamber of Commerce over the years, you've spent it all on Le Xiao Yao, right? You can make money, you can use the Liubei Chamber of Commerce's money to make a lot of private money! "
As Ning Cheng spoke, he immediately explained in detail how Shang'er had made use of several big deals to make money over the years. He even taught Shang'er a few better methods.
"If you did that, it would be perfect, but unfortunately …" Ning Cheng said, gently patting her head, "Unfortunately, you can't do it here."
This was a great humiliation, but Shang'er was convinced.
Ah Cheng had used a short three days to become the real master of the Liubei Chamber of Commerce. She was already very impressed, but what Ah Cheng said just now made her admire him even more.
She was quiet for a long time, then said seriously, "Ah Cheng, I want to worship you as my master!"
Ning Cheng heard this and finally broke down, roaring, "Are you going to scram or not!"
He had been hurt and humiliated. How thick was this woman's skin? What was her heart made of? She was so shameless, wouldn't she get hurt?
Shang'er was determined to cling to this man. She lay back down and pulled the quilt, "I'm sleepy, I can't scram."
"How much do you want? Name a price. "Ning Cheng said Coldly.
"If you let me stay, I promise I won't be greedy for money. I don't want the ten taels of silver every month. You just have to make sure I have enough to eat and wear." Shang'er said.
In that moment, Ning Cheng almost threw the Liubei Chamber of Commerce's token to her. After all, besides him, she was the one who could control the Liubei Chamber of Commerce the most. However, Ning Cheng still didn't do so. Since he didn't kill her before, why would he push her into the fire pit now?
One had to know that the person who had the most control over Liubei did not mean that he could protect Liubei Chamber of Commerce. He had to find someone with a strong military background who was familiar with the ways of business to take over Liu Bei, if not, once Le Zheng's family came to seek revenge, no one would be able to resist.
Ning Cheng sat down and let out a long sigh.
Shang'er looked at him and sat up unconsciously. She had to admit that Ah Cheng was so quiet and serious that it scared her. She would rather he yell at her and be fierce to her. Seeing Ah Cheng look up, she immediately lowered her head.
Ning Cheng took out two keys and said lightly, "These are the keys to Immeasurable Mountain's treasury. There are a total of three keys, and one is with Xiong Fei. Xiong Fei killed Yue Zheng, so he should be given a share. The rest is all yours. "
The key was what Shang'er wanted the most, but she didn't take it. She asked warily, "What are the conditions?"
Ning Cheng said word by word, "Don't even think about the Liubei Chamber of Commerce. Get out of here!"
Shang'er refused. "I don't want it!"
Ning Cheng was surprised. "Don't you want money? You should know that the Liubei Chamber of Commerce might not be able to earn that much money even if they spend another three years! "
"I want you!" Shang'er replied without hesitation. "I don't want money, I want you!"
Ning Cheng was stunned for a moment, then he burst out laughing as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world. However, to him, these words were really the funniest joke in the world.
He knew better than anyone else how greedy Shang'er was for money. She actually didn't want money, but wanted him?
He leaned over and placed his hands on the couch, closing in on her. "Shang'er, I don't want to play anymore. Even if you give me ten years, I won't be able to help you earn more money! "
He patted her face and sneered. "Wake up!"
He didn't pat her hard at all, and her face didn't hurt, but she didn't know why, but her heart ached. It was as if every time he patted her, her heart would ache.
So unbearable …
She still ignored it and laughed. She said, "I don't care. Anyway, I want you."
Ning Cheng finally lost his patience. He carried her in his arms and strode out of the door. He took a shortcut to the back door and threw her out without any mercy. The door slammed shut with a bang!
"Xiong Fei!" he shouted angrily.
Xiong Fei hurried over. "Boss Cheng, what happened? Why are you so angry?"
Coldly, he said, "Pass down the order. No matter who it is, if they let Shang'er in again, they'll get lost with her!"
Outside the door, Hua Jin helped Shang'er up. When she saw the wound on her forehead, she panicked. "Did he hurt you?"
Shang'er shrugged and said, "No, I asked for it."
Hua Jin then realized that Shang'er seemed to be in a good mood. She asked suspiciously, "What happened?"
Shang'er burst out laughing. "Jin, he really didn't want to kill me!"
She had already angered him, but he still didn't want to kill her. This was really beyond her expectations.
Hua Jin was still confused. Confused, Shang'er pulled her away.
"Let's find a place to stay nearby. I don't believe that he won't go out!" Shang'er smiled slyly.
Shang'er really did stay nearby. She watched the main entrance of the Liubei Merchant Guild and let Hua Jin guard the back door. Hua Jin was an assassin, but she didn't feel aggrieved that she had fallen to this state. She was just bored to death.
These two days, Ah Cheng didn't go out, but someone from the Liubei Merchant Guild came. Ba Tu!
When Shang'er saw Ba Tu standing at the entrance, she was so angry that she wanted to rush over and bite him. Hua Jin said very calmly, "Although he was the one who burned Le Xiaoyao, Ah Cheng was the one who started it."
Shang'er said resentfully, "Liubei Merchant Guild did a lot of business with the Wolf Sect last year, but Ba Tu wasn't the one in charge. Why is he here? "
Hua Jin shrugged, looking like it was useless to ask her. Shang'er couldn't be bothered to say more.
They could only wait.
Ba Tu went in for a while before coming out. He left with an ugly expression.
"Jin, I have a bad feeling again." Shang'er said in a low voice.
A complicated look flashed past Hua Jin's eyes. She also said in a low voice, "Since you have a bad feeling, let's leave."
Shang'er glared at her and didn't say anything else.
That afternoon, Shang'er's bad feeling came true. Ba Tu came again. After he got off the carriage, he dragged a middle-aged woman out of the carriage. This person was none other than Le Xiaoyao's procuress!
Shang'er sat down by the window and muttered, "Jin, I'm finished."
She thought that Ba Tu would kill the procuress, but she didn't expect him to take her away. He brought the procuress to her door. It was undoubtedly the procuress who sold her out!
Hua Jin turned to look at the dispirited Shang'er and said helplessly, "Why do you keep people who betray their masters?"
Shang'er said something even more helpless than Hua Jin, "When Ah Cheng put a bounty on my head, everyone knew that I had no money. Anyone would sell me out! "
Hua Jin said coldly, "So, I've never been human?"
Shang'er wanted to laugh, but she couldn't. She knew very well how serious the situation was. Behind Ba Tu was the Wolf Sect, a sect that few could afford to offend.
Although Ah Cheng was the one who handled the transactions between the Liubei Merchant Guild and the Wolf Sect last year, she still knew about it. The current leader of the Wolf Sect, Miss Han Xiang, was an extremely protective and unforgiving person.
Ah Cheng's dealings with the Wolf Sect were not for the sake of making money, but for the sake of making friends. The Wolf Sect was the strongest faction in the southern part of the Mysterious Continent. Le Zheng told Ah Cheng that as long as they could make friends with the Wolf Sect, the Liubei Merchant Guild's business in the southern part of the Mysterious Continent would be easy. No one would dare to cause trouble.
However, according to her understanding, Miss Han was very ambitious and had always wanted to be a partner of the Liubei Merchant Guild. Le Zheng had refused, and so had Ah Cheng. Not for anything else, but because once Han Xiang entered the Liubei Chamber of Commerce, Le Zheng and Ah Cheng would lose their right to speak and become servants.
Shang'er was silent for a while before suddenly standing up, "I want to go take a look!"
Hua Jin hurriedly pulled her back, "Do you want to die?! Do you think Ba Tu will forgive you for playing him like this? "
"I'll take responsibility for my own actions! I can't implicate Ah Cheng and the Liubei Merchant Guild! "Shang'er said seriously.
"That guy is quite capable. Maybe he can help you." Hua Jin comforted her.
"Ba Tu can squash him to death with a single finger. Jin, you know that in this place, martial arts is the real deal." Shang'er said indifferently.
"Then all the more you can't go. Do you think Ah Cheng will sacrifice his own life to protect you?" Hua Jin asked seriously, "You're not stupid yourself, so why do you think he's so stupid?"
Shang'er pouted resentfully and leaned against the window again. She would wait!
Shang'er waited until night fell before she saw Ba Tu come out. The procuress didn't follow him. Shang'er didn't understand the situation and wanted to barge in to ask what was going on. Unfortunately, she tried a few times, but was blocked by the guards every time.
On her last attempt, the back door suddenly opened. It was Ah Cheng who opened the door. She rushed up to him and asked, "What did Ba Tu want from you?"
Ning Cheng didn't speak and only looked at her Cold.
Shang'er asked again, "Did he threaten you?"
Ning Cheng still didn't speak. Shang'er turned around and left.
Ning Cheng finally spoke, "Where are you going?"
"I'm going to look for him! I started this, so I'll deal with it myself. "Shang'er answered.
Unexpectedly, Ning Cheng said, "Shang'er, why are you in such a hurry?"
Shang'er turned back with a puzzled expression.
"Ba Tu has already killed the procuress. He's rushing to his master to claim credit. I promised to discuss a collaboration with Miss Han tomorrow."
Shang'er interrupted Ning Cheng and asked seriously, "Ah Cheng, you're protecting me, aren't you?"
Ning Cheng laughed and said, "You should know that the power behind Le Zheng isn't weak. After killing Le Zheng, we can only work with the Wolf Sect. "
"You …" Shang'er was stunned.
"I've already planned this. I have to thank you for provoking Ba Tu. Otherwise, I wouldn't have had the chance to turn back. After all, I've rejected Miss Han before, "Ning Cheng said Cold.
Shang'er looked at Ah Cheng. For the first time, she felt scared and unfamiliar. For the first time, she realized that she knew so little about him.
But even so, she still didn't believe that he was willing to be a lackey. She still believed that he had his reasons.
"You knew that I was nearby. Why didn't you hand me over?" she asked stubbornly.
Ah Cheng's answer almost made her despair.
