The light of the sword is like the moon reflecting on Kyushu

Chapter 1836 Scrap Copper and Iron

Ye Changge naturally recognized this elusive person!

"Zhang...Brother Zhang, what...what do you mean?" The man who came was Zhang Chuji, the richest man in Lushan County.

Zhang Chuji stood with his hands behind his back, as still as a mountain!

His face was stern, and he said calmly: "Are you asking me? I want to ask, what do you mean now?"

Ye Changge’s mind raced. Could it be that the news that the silver was stolen by the Four Tigers of Zhushan had reached his ears?

He asked tentatively, "Did Brother Zhang hear any rumors?"

Zhang Chuji asked back: "What do you think? You have a subordinate named Li Shuangjiang, right?"

Ye Changge's heart sank, "Yes!"

Zhang Chuji's eyes were like needles, and he said coldly: "When he asked Lord Cao for help, I was also in the government office!"

Ye Changge sighed secretly, it's fate! How could it be such a coincidence?

Ye Changge said: "The money was indeed robbed by the Four Tigers of Zhushan!" Now that things have come to this, there is no point in covering it up anymore!

"and then?"

"Didn't I already report it to the police?"

"Haha!" Zhang Chuji said with a sarcastic look, "You mean, as long as you report it to the police, this matter will have nothing to do with you?"

Ye Changge's eyes flickered: "What does Brother Zhang mean..."

Zhang Chuji said expressionlessly: "Since the money was lost in your hands, you naturally have the obligation to get it back!"

Ye Changge said: "I have tried my best. My four elders are either dead or injured. We are not strong enough!"

Zhang Chuji asked, "You are not strong enough? Do you think I don't know that you have invited two ninth-level masters?"

Ye Changge said: "The other party has a magic weapon, the magic blade, two ninth-level masters are no match for them!"

"Divine weapon, devil blade?"

"Divine Wind and Thunder Fan, Magic Blade Sky-breaking Hand!"

"Then you can notify me! I still have many experts under my command! Lao Peng, Lao Qiu and the others can also send people! The combined strength of all of us should not be underestimated! At least four or five eighth-level experts, twenty seventh-level experts, and each of us has hundreds of brothers under our command, equipped with Zhuge Crossbows. I don't believe that nearly a thousand people can't keep these four!"

The Old Peng he mentioned is Peng Shihuai, the richest man in Yingjing County, and the Old Qiu is Qiu Qingquan, the richest man in Qingxi County.

In the eyes of outsiders, they are kind-hearted, philanthropic and wealthy people, but Ye Changge knows how these people accumulated their wealth!

Repairing bridges and roads leaves no corpses, but killing people and setting fires earns you a gold belt!

When they see money, it’s like a hungry beast seeing weak prey, they will swallow it up without mercy!

If they see good farmland, they will try to seize it.

If they like a woman, they will try to snatch her away.

If they see a business they like, they will try to grab it.

That’s right, just rob!

It’s just that they are very good at “thinking”!

They will collude with local authorities and use all kinds of high-sounding reasons to "openly" force their targets to submit!

Recruit local thugs and secretly use all kinds of despicable means to make the target unbearable!

Spend a lot of money to hire experts as bodyguards to prevent the target from being forced into desperate situations!

Don’t underestimate these three tricks, ordinary people can’t resist them at all!

The main reason why Ye Changge decided to run away was that these big brothers who had placed huge bets were not decent people!

They are the ones who make you suffer losses, you must never let them suffer losses!

If you let them suffer a loss, they will never let you survive that night!

Zhang Chuji asked, "Why, are you stunned? I was asking you a question. Why didn't you inform us?"

Ye Changge said: "I will inform you tomorrow morning."

"You're talking nonsense!" Zhang Chuji's eyes were filled with murderous intent. "Are you afraid that you won't be able to explain yourself, so you want to run away?"

"No! How could that be? Everything I have is in Yazhou. How could I bear to leave?"

"That's not called leaving, that's called taking shelter!"

Ye Changge suddenly roared, "Yes! I admit that I want to leave! So what?" When a person is forced into a desperate situation, he either waits for death or explodes! He doesn't want to wait for death now!

Zhang Chuji sneered, "What? Are you anxious? Want to bite me? Can you beat me?"

Ye Changge really wanted to smash Zhang Chuji with one punch! But he knew that Zhang Chuji's fighting power was one level higher than his! Although they were both in the eighth realm, there was a gap! When masters fight, they fight for a moment, for a millimeter! A millimeter difference can lead to a thousand miles of error!

"Hey, if you can't win, just stop fighting? Even rabbits know how to bite when they are angry, let alone humans?"

"Humph, you have a lot of treasures in this house, why don't you take them out to compensate us? Do you value money more than your life?"

"Humph! Do you think I didn't think about compensation at the beginning? I can't afford it!"

"I only invested 200,000 taels. Even if all the losses add up to 2 million taels, the jewelry, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and gold bars you have here are definitely enough to make up for the loss!"

"Humph, that's easy for you to say. I don't even know who you guys are. Many of the things in this room are unique and priceless. A single golden incense burner with a horse stepping on a flying swallow from the Han Dynasty is worth 100,000 taels. There are at least 30 similar antiques. The normal market price is certainly enough to make up for your losses!"

"Why don't you do this?"

"If I give you two incense burners similar to the one depicting a horse stepping on a flying swallow, and say that they are worth your 200,000 yuan bet, would you agree?"

"Haha, of course I don't agree!"

"Humph! So, why should I compensate you?"

"If that's the case, you're not much better than us! I'm greedy and two items are not enough, but you can try to impress me with three! You don't even have the sincerity to take one as compensation, you're really a miser!"

A voice outside the door said, "Yes, he obviously has the ability to repay but he chose to run away to avoid debt. Boss Ye's character is really bad!"

Ye Changge was startled, knowing that it was Mo Xuyou from Hanyuan County who had arrived! He was also a man who would not spit out bones even if he was strong!

Mo Xuyou walked in carefree in gorgeous clothes!

He was rather fat, and gave people the impression of a local rich man who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun. But Ye Changge knew that this guy was also an eighth-level master, and his thirty-six-step eagle claw hand was quite powerful, and could easily crush a person's bones!

Zhang Chuji asked, "Have you heard the news too?"

Mo Xuyou snorted coldly and said, "I don't have Alzheimer's disease, how could I not know such a big thing? Did my men grow up eating shit?" Zhang Chuji heard that he was very aggressive and knew that he was blaming him for wanting to keep the benefits to himself without telling anyone else!

"Haha, after I heard that the silver was robbed, I immediately went to block Boss Ye. I didn't expect that Boss Ye didn't go back to his residence, but actually ran to this slum area, so I followed him to find out what happened, but I didn't have time to notify you!"

"Don't say it's useless. Now that it's happened, I just want an explanation! Boss Ye, I threw in 100,000 yuan, which isn't much, but my money didn't fall from the sky. I can't just lose it like that, right?"

Ye Changge said: "I have a horse stepping on a flying swallow incense burner from the Han Dynasty. It is priceless. According to the current market price, it is worth at least 100,000 taels. I will use it to pay you. Is that okay?"

Mo Xuyou glanced at the incense burner on the antique shelf and sneered, "You're using this thing to exchange for 100,000 taels of silver from me. Are you trying to tease me?"

Ye Changge laughed at himself and said, "I knew you would say that! Then tell me, which of the things here do you like that is worth your 100,000!"

Mo Xuyou glanced around and said, "I see that you are sincere in compensating me, so I won't make it difficult for you. These scrap copper and iron are worth 20,000 yuan, and those porcelains are worth 20,000 yuan. The calligraphy and paintings are worthless. I know many famous artists, so there is no need to take them away. But if you don't take them away, you will owe me more. These calligraphy and paintings are barely worth 20,000 yuan, so you still owe me 40,000 yuan. 40,000 yuan? It's not much. Just write an IOU and pay it back within a month."

Ye Changge and Zhang Chuji's expressions changed at the same time!

Although Ye Changge was extremely angry, he actually seized an opportunity: "Brother Mo, your estimate is a bit too harsh, isn't it? I can compensate you ten times for these things! Even if you want to get more back, I will accept it, but if you do this, Brother Zhang's money will be gone!"

Zhang Chuji said, "Yes, Brother Mo, you took all these things, what about me?"

Mo Xuyou pretended to be confused: "You are looking for Gang Leader Ye, why are you asking me?"

Zhang Chuji laughed, "Lao Mo, joking aside, let's get down to business, stop messing around!"

Mo Xuyou said in all seriousness, "Who is making trouble? I am very serious!"

Zhang Chuji's face suddenly darkened. "You took everything away. Old Ye doesn't even have his underwear left. Why did you ask me to look for him? To watch him perform a show with his bare ass?"

Mo Xuyou said, "Isn't that good? Boss Ye is performing a show for you with his bare bottom. You are so lucky. We want to watch but don't have the chance!"

Mo Xuyou lost to Zhang Chuji for three consecutive years. It’s bullshit to say that he doesn’t hold a grudge against him!

Zhang Chuji narrowed his eyes into a line, his eyes flashing like a cold knife: "Do you want to fight with me today?" Faced with the huge amount of money in this house, it would be strange if the other party didn't want to kill him! Why didn't he want to kill him and take it all?

Mo Xuyou smiled contemptuously and said, "You want to kill me? We are evenly matched, I'm afraid you can't do it!"

Zhang Chuji said, "Boss Ye, let's team up to kill him. I only want five incense burners of the same level, and all the old accounts will be written off!"

Mo Xuyou frowned and couldn't help but sneer, "How could you come up with such a bad idea? Do you think it would be OK even if you two joined forces?"

Zhang Chuji was startled, "Are you ambushing someone outside?"

Mo Xuyou sneered, "Of course! Do you think I'm as stupid as you? How dare you follow Ye Changge alone! Although he is at the beginning of the eighth realm, he is not much different from you who is at the middle of the eighth realm. If you make a mistake, you may die under the sword of Gang Leader Ye! I won't take such a risk! Now my four great Vajras are waiting outside, they can rush in at any time!"

Zhang Chuji said: "Boss Ye, you see, Old Mo has no intention of negotiating with you at all. You must not have any illusions about joining forces with him!" He must extinguish Ye Changge and Mo Xuyou's hope of joining forces. Their hope is his despair!

Ye Changge said: "Since Brother Mo can also track here, what about others? I heard that some people have been keeping an eye on you, and they will teach you a lesson as soon as they find a chance!"

Mo Xuyou's face suddenly darkened!

Others? Who else could it be except Liu Zichen, the richest man in Yazhou City? Who else but Liu Zichen from Yazhou City dared to confront Mo Xuyou head-on? Who dared to openly make him uncomfortable?

Even Zhang Chuji in front of him would never dare to break up with him unless it was a matter of life and death!

Only that Liu Zichen targeted me everywhere, threatening to teach me a lesson if he saw me misbehaving! Who does he think he is, is he my father?

But Mo Xuyou didn't dare to retort, because the other person's strength was there!

Unless it was a matter of life and death, I wouldn't dare to break up with him!

This is the law of the jungle!

But how could he soften his words now? "I will take it from you! At this point, even the Jade Emperor can't do anything!" Yes, the wealth in front of him is at least millions of taels, or even tens of millions of taels. How could he just give it to others?

Ye Changge said: "I guess, if Brother Mo can find this place, Brother Liu can naturally find this place! And since Brother Zhang can follow me here, I guess Lord Cao will come here too!"

Mo Xuyou's eyes flickered, "What do you mean?" He would not act impulsively now! Now the three of them were holding each other in a tripod. If he could not kill one of them with one strike, he would be killed by another! The door of the room was so narrow that if he rashly let his men rush in, he would only add fuel to the fire and die in vain!

Ye Changge said: "I originally wanted to keep my family property, but now that I can't keep it, why should I run away! When Lord Cao arrives to administer justice, I will compensate you according to the price, and we will part ways on good terms!"

Mo Xuyou said, "You wish!" He turned his eyes to Zhang Chuji, revealing a fox-like cunning, "How about we join forces? Split the profits 50-50?"

Zhang Chuji chuckled and said, "You know me, and I know you, do you think we can work together?"

Mo Xuyou naturally knew Zhang Chuji's background! Before he whitewashed his identity, he was also a notorious thief who killed people without blinking an eye! Everyone only cares about money, and talking about rules and morality is just digging a hole for yourself!

Mo Xuyou asked, "Are we just going to waste time like this?"

There was a sneer outside, "Who said that?"

Mo Xuyou's face suddenly darkened! Damn it, the ghost is still lingering!

The door of the room opened and a man walked in. He was dressed like a scholar and had a fair complexion, but he did not have the elegance of a scholar at all. Instead, he had a face full of hostility!

The person who came was Liu Zichen, the richest man in Yazhou!

Ye Changge said, "Brother Liu, I lost your money. Now all my assets are here. You can take what you think is enough to pay off the debt. Let's settle the debt. Is that okay?"

Liu Zichen glanced around and said calmly: "These things of yours are worthless!"

Ye Changge's expression remained unchanged, he was numb!

Zhang Chuji asked, "Brother Liu, do you mean to take them all?"

Liu Zichen raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why? Brother Zhang also has this idea?"

Zhang Chuji said: "How dare I fight with Brother Liu? Brother Mo wants to take it all!"

Liu Zichen immediately laughed and looked at Mo Xuyou, "You have a big appetite, don't you? You want to eat it all!"

Mo Xuyou's momentum was obviously weakened, but he was still much tougher than usual. "He lost all my money, so what if I ask him to pay some back?"

Liu Zichen grinned and said, "You only bet 100,000 yuan. It would be enough to take any antique here. Why did you take so much? Why are you so greedy?"

Mo Xuyou asked, "How much did you deduct? Why did you eat it all?"

Liu Zichen's eyes flashed, "Oh, you dare to challenge me? It seems that there are indeed many valuable things here! Otherwise, this guy would not dare to contradict me! Humph, today is such a coincidence, I caught you in a jar, hehe, I will bury you here! Come on!" As soon as the voice fell, there was a loud bang, and the wall where the door was located collapsed instantly. Smoke and dust filled the air, revealing the entire courtyard, and it was seen that it was full of people standing outside! There were four men of Zhang Chuji, four men of Mo Xuyou, six men of Liu Zichen, and a man in official uniform. Next to him stood two yamen runners and a tall man with blond hair and a shawl! Under the moonlight, the man's eye sockets seemed like black holes, but it turned out to be just deep eye sockets!

Everyone recognized Lord Cao!

Only Ye Changge recognized the blond man! Wasn't he the man from the Western Regions following the young man in white? Why did he come with Lord Cao?

Thank you Yudong for your strong support and encouragement!
