Chapter 228 You Women Are Terrifying

"Mother!" Little Winter Gua pulled Meng Fuling's hand and said in a muffled voice, "If you really can't find the Weilong Token, just make a fake one."

"Fake it? You can figure it out, even if you can fool the emperor for a while, you won't be able to fool the emperor forever. Sooner or later, the paper will not be able to cover the fire." Meng Fuling squatted down, pinched the little wax gourd's nose, and said amusedly.

This little guy was also in a hurry before he came up with this bad idea.

"The last time we entered the palace, I saw that he was in a very poor spirit. I'm afraid he was too old to tell the truth from the fake. It may be a few years before he sees it through. Who knows what the situation will be then." Little Winter Melon pretended Easy way.

He also reached out to pat Meng Fuling's back, but unfortunately his hands were too short to pat, so he had to pat her shoulder instead.

Meng Fuling chuckled, knowing that Xiaodonggua was coaxing her on purpose, she felt a little better.

Just at this moment, Steward Lu brought some guards over, "Ma'am, someone brought them here."

Several guards were selected from the General's Mansion. They were all well-trained and extremely responsible. They were very respectful when they saw Meng Fuling's mother and son.

Meng Fuling excused herself, then turned to Steward Lu and asked, "Have they all touched corpses?"

"That's right, he threw the corpse." Steward Lu nodded and pointed to one of the guards.

The guard panicked a little, and hurriedly said: "Return to Madam, Steward Lu has a word that he can dispose of the corpse at will, and his subordinates are also following orders."

"Did you find anything on the body?" Meng Fuling asked.

She didn't blame the guards for throwing the body into the sea, if it wasn't for looking for Wei Long Ling, she wouldn't bother to care about how to deal with Nangong Jue's body.

The guard shook his head and said with certainty: "This subordinate has never searched the body of the corpse, so I don't know what is on the body."

As he spoke, he thought in his heart, when the corpses were rotting and smelly, who would search for them?Not poor and crazy.

Meng Fuling frowned, then asked the other guards, "What about you?"

The other guards said in unison: "Mrs. Hui, none of the subordinates have searched the body of the corpse!"

"Do you still remember where the corpse was thrown?" Meng Fuling looked at the guard who threw the corpse again.

In this case, Meng Fuling believed them for the time being, and could only determine where the corpse was thrown and let people salvage it.

Maybe the corpse had been eaten by fish or washed away when it was in the sea for a long time. No matter what, Meng Fuling wanted to find it.

If the corpse was eaten by fish and Wei Longling placed it on Nangong Jue, the fish would definitely not eat the hard objects placed on the corpse as the corpse was eaten, and it might sink to the bottom of the sea.

"Remember, subordinate!" the guard thought for a moment, then said.

"You guys are going to salvage, the body is secondary, the main thing is half a golden token, this matter must not be disclosed." Meng Fuling didn't intend to let too many people know, so these guards went to salvage.

"Yes!" All the guards responded in unison, although they didn't look strange on their faces, they were actually complaining in their hearts.

In the cold weather, if they were to salvage the bodies that had sunk into the sea, it was hard to say whether they could get the bones, let alone a small half token.

After all the guards had retreated, Xiao Donggua smiled and said, "Mother, maybe they think you're deliberately torturing people."

"Then I can't help it!" Meng Fuling was also very helpless, she had no other choice.

"If you can't get it, you can only fake it." Xiao Donggua sighed, and then smiled and hugged Meng Fuling's arm, "Mother, take me to visit!"

"Okay!" Meng Fuling rubbed Xiaodonggua's hair, and was about to drag him into the villa when she found that Butler Lu was still there.

He looked at Little Winter Melon in surprise, as if he saw an alien.

Meng Fuling and Xiaodonggua glanced at each other, both a little embarrassed, they all forgot that Butler Lu hadn't left yet.

Steward Lu moved his lips, and said after a long time: "Our young master is more, smarter, and knows more."

Just now, when I heard Xiaodonggua talk, especially when he talked about fraud, how could he sound like a child?Moreover, Xiaodonggua clearly knew why Meng Fuling was looking for a token.

Just ask, how can an average adult let a child know this?

Furthermore, Little Winter Melon has always been an innocent, cute, and well-behaved child in Steward Lu's heart.So, no wonder Butler Lu was so surprised.

Little Winter Melon touched his nose, and said innocently: "Mother also praised Little Winter Melon for being smart."

"Beautiful!" Meng Fuling also returned to normal color, smiling extremely dotingly.

Steward Lu didn't say any more, and after Meng Fuling and Xiaodonggua walked into the villa, they went to ask for a banquet.

And Yue Shaoqing and Xue Shi waited for Meng Fuling for a while, and asked her to show them around.

Although Meng Fuling came here for the first time after the island was built, she imitated the modern design of every part of the villa based on her memory, so she is very familiar with it.

She showed them around on the first floor first, and then went to the amusement hall on the second floor, just in time to see someone moving things into the amusement hall.

It was the billiards that were being moved. Meng Fuling stepped forward to have a look, and was very satisfied when she saw that the billiards were exactly as she had imagined.

"Xiao Donggua, let's take a look at this crane machine." Meng Fuling led Xiao Donggua to a crane machine.

Most of the modern claw machines are electrified, as long as you press the button, you can guide the machine to grab the doll inside, but there is no electricity at all here.

Meng Fuling thought hard for a long time, and came up with a way to set up a groove where copper plates could be placed. When a copper plate was thrown in, the groove was just full, but there must be a sliding process.

When the copper plate slides, the player can hold the doll by shaking the machine with his hands. If the copper plate slides down to the bottom box, it will not move anymore, and the time is up.

At that time, Meng Fuling only drew blueprints and noted the structure on the blueprints, and didn't really expect the craftsmen to make them. After all, the inside of the claw machine is too profound.

At that time, Steward Lu had arrived on the island first, and Feng Lin had nothing to do, so he volunteered to help find craftsmen. I don't know where he found a few skilled craftsmen, and he really did research according to Meng Fuling's request.

As for the dolls in the claw machine, they are all small puppets, which were also drawn by Meng Fuling and sewn by someone else.

"Fu Ling, what is this?" Xue was surprised by everything she saw, and she was very soft-tempered, just like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden at this moment.

"Mother, how do you play this?" Little Winter Melon looked eager to try, with big eyes shining brightly.

Meng Fuling smiled. She only had silver on her body, but no copper plate, so she asked the craftsman who was moving things for a copper coin.

"Put the copper plate in, shake the handle with your hand, and press it down hard." Meng Fuling explained and demonstrated.

After a while, there was a gurgling sound from under the claw machine, and it was the doll that fell down.

"Why does this wooden box come out just by shaking it?" Yue Shaoqing looked up and down the claw machine, but couldn't see why.

Meng Fuling explained the principle patiently, and said: "If a customer comes to grab it, this copper coin can be grabbed once, sometimes it can be caught, sometimes it can't be caught."

Because there is no glass, it cannot be made like a modern claw machine. It is surrounded by glass so that the dolls inside can be seen clearly.

However, in this way, if you don't see it, it's all luck, and it's more interesting.

"But Fu Ling, you can't make much money with this." Xue shook her head.

Before Meng Fuling could answer, Xiao Donggua rushed to say: "Mother made this just for fun and to add characteristics to the island."

"Yes, Little Winter Melon is smarter." Meng Fuling praised Little Winter Melon without hesitation.

Xue's face flushed slightly, feeling that she was not as smart as a child, and felt a little embarrassed.

Yue Shaoqing squeezed Xue Shi's hand secretly, and said with a smile: "Fu Ling, it's a bit like gambling."

"It's only a matter of a few copper coins, so it's not gambling." Meng Fuling glanced at Yue Shaoqing and Xue Shi's hands, and secretly laughed.

Xue didn't notice the smile on Meng Fuling's lips, Yue Shaoqing felt a little uncomfortable, changed the subject, and asked Meng Fuling about the future management of the resort island.

Sure enough, when this question was mentioned, the smile on Meng Fuling's face grew wider, and she began to talk, "I am committed to making every plant and tree on the island unique, so that everyone in the world can come here... ..."

In Meng Fuling's plan, the island is exclusively open to the rich. Guests can bring their families to the island for vacation in their spare time. Except for the main villa and Meng Fuling's own family's residence, all other villas are rented. to guests.

Guests will be attracted by the novelty of the villa, as soon as they open the windows, they can enjoy the beautiful sea view.The main villa is equipped with a modern restaurant, bar, stage, game hall, and bookstore.However, these are not perfect yet.

Meng Fuling also planned to have several large boats built, which could be rented to guests to go out to sea, and they could also be used to pick up and drop off guests.

After she finished speaking, she realized that Mrs. Xue was dumbfounded, and Yue Shaoqing and Xiao Donggua were also shocked.

"Mother, mother, it must be very expensive to rent a house called a villa, right?" Xiaodonggua helped her little chin, still feeling that the word 'villa' was quite awkward.

"It's natural to be expensive." Meng Fuling's tone was quite smug, and her resort island was exclusively for rich people.

Most rich people are rich and powerful, and like novelty and fun.It's like some people go to brothels, spend a lot of money to smile at beautiful women.

Everything on her island is something that was not available in ancient times, no matter how expensive it is, it will definitely attract people's attention.

"Mother, you know how to make money! I really don't know where you have so many weird things in your mind." Xiao Donggua wrapped her arms around Meng Fuling's neck, leaned into her ear, and exclaimed in a low voice.

"Son, do you adore your mother?" Meng Fuling joked.

"Isn't it normal for a son to worship his mother?" Xiao Donggua blinked her eyes and said in a mischievous tone.

"Yes, it's normal." Meng Fuling lightly pecked Xiaodonggua's small face.

To be honest, she was always unable to connect him with the former prince, and accidentally forgot that there was an adult soul living in him. In her eyes, he was just a child.

Xue didn't know what Meng Fuling and Xiaodonggua were talking about, but vaguely heard the word money, and said, "Fuling, the family has enough property and a lot of money, so don't work too hard."

"Understood, mother." Meng Fuling replied.

She thought to herself that no amount of money is too much, and Xiao Donggua gave up the throne for her and Qi Xuan, so she wanted to save more money for him.

"Fu Ling, does this island have a name?" Yue Shaoqing asked suddenly.

Meng Fuling was stunned, if Yue Shaoqing didn't say anything, she even forgot such an important question.

"Not yet, do you have any good suggestions?" She asked Yue Shaoqing, a good name should not only be recognizable, but also play a role in publicity.

Yue Shaoqing shook his head, "You should choose the name of the island, so it has meaning."

Meng Fuling was a little embarrassed, she didn't like the old fashioned ways.It's too vulgar and unattractive, but she can't get that elegant name.

"Don't worry, wait for the gourd to come and let him take it." Meng Fuling left the question of naming to Qi Xuan, because he has more ink in his belly than her.

After a few people strolled around for a while, Steward Lu came to treat them to a meal.

At night, the guards who went to salvage found nothing, not to mention the corpse and token, not even a scrap of cloth.

Meng Fuling had no choice but to think of a way, that is to use a sack to pack a bag of stones that weighed about the same as a person, throw them in the direction where the body fell, and follow the direction where the sack fell into the sea and the direction of the seawater to find it.

This method was also thought of by Meng Fuling in desperation. She didn't have any hope at first, but she really had a clue.

The guards searched for two days along the direction where the sack was washed by the sea, and finally found a small fishing village, which was located behind the small island and a little far away.

If you don't tell me, Meng Fuling doesn't know there is such a place.

After many inquiries by the guards, they finally found a small fishing village. When a fisherman went fishing, he accidentally caught a rotten corpse that had been washed to pieces by the sea.

The fisherman was very poor. Although he couldn't tell whether the tattered clothes on the corpse were made of high-quality fabrics, he still searched the corpse in the hope that he could find something valuable. Some valuable trinkets, and half gold plaques.

Needless to say, the gold plaque mentioned by the fishermen must be Weilong Ling.

"Then why didn't you take the token back?" Meng Fuling was a little excited, and couldn't help asking after the guard reported.

The expressions of the guards were subtle, and finally, one of the guards replied: "Madam, I want to buy back the token from the fisherman with money, but the fisherman has been searching at home for a long time, but he can't find the token." Where to put it, maybe it was accidentally discarded."

As soon as the guard finished speaking, Meng Fuling said directly: "Impossible!"

She paused for a while with a sullen face, and continued: "The token is made of gold. Since the fisherman is poor and greedy for money, it is naturally impossible to throw it away at will."

Little Winter Melon couldn't help but say, "It's not too bad to pawn."

"You're right, if it's not in his hands, it might be pawned." Meng Fuling agreed with this statement.

The guard just now felt that force should be used, so he suggested: "Madam, why don't you go and ask me?"

"No!" Meng Fuling directly refused.

A group of foreigners broke into other people's territory and did something to the fishermen, which would definitely cause unnecessary trouble.

"You will go with me tomorrow." Meng Fuling thought about it, but still felt that she should go to the small fishing village in person.

After she finished speaking, she screened off the guards.Little Winter Melon entangled her, "Mother, I want to go too."

Meng Fuling nodded, and habitually reached out to rub Xiaodonggua's hair.

******
The next day, Meng Fuling took Xiaodonggua and the guards to the small fishing village.

Originally, Yue Shaoqing wanted to go with her, but she declined.Because the relationship between Yue Shaoqing and Xue Shi is very good now, if Yue Shaoqing goes, Xue Shi will definitely follow.

To be honest, Meng Fuling didn't like to go out with Xue Shi, especially when she was doing business, she didn't despise Xue Shi, but Xue's temperament easily hindered others.

The group of them took a small boat, and the closer they got to the small fishing village, the stronger the smell of fish.

Little Winter Melon followed Qi Xuan, he doesn't like to eat fish, so naturally he can't smell the fishy smell.

At this moment, Little Winter Melon was pinching his nose with one hand, and fanning his nose fiercely with the other, and said with a bitter face: "Mother, it's so fishy!"

His expression, coupled with his cute appearance, was so adorable that it melted Meng Fuling's heart.

"You are the one who wants to follow." Meng Fuling thought it was funny, and pulled the little wax gourd into her arms.

All the way to the north along the coast, after a while, a Jieshi area emerged from the sea.

The terrain behind Jieshi gradually rises, scattered fishing houses stand in the distance, and there are some children playing on the beach.

"Ma'am, where is the fisherman's house?" A guard pointed to one of the fishing houses and said to Meng Fuling.

"En." Meng Fuling responded lightly, and then turned her attention to Xiaodonggua.

After a while, after reaching the shore, the guards docked the boat and invited Meng Fuling's mother and son to disembark.

The arrival of Meng Fuling and others attracted the curious eyes of those children, and some children called their parents loudly.

After a while, many fishermen ran out from their homes, looking at Meng Fuling and the others, some were curious and defensive...

Meng Fuling was a little embarrassed, feeling like an animal in a zoo, surrounded by people.

However, she discovered that most of these fishermen were women and children, and maybe the men had gone fishing.

Meng Fuling just thought of a question, will that fisherman also go fishing?If they weren't at home, wouldn't they have come in vain?

She just thought so, the guard who spoke to her just now pointed in the direction of the fishing house, "Ma'am, that fisherman wants to escape."

When Meng Fuling heard this, she immediately urged, "Hurry up!"

Two guards stayed behind to protect her and Xiaodonggua, while the rest went after the fisherman.

"Mother, yesterday the fisherman told the guards that the token was missing, and he must have been guilty of running away as soon as he saw us today." Xiao Donggua frowned.

"From this point of view, the token should still be in his hands. Maybe he thinks the token is valuable, and he is afraid that we will snatch it by force." Meng Fuling guessed.

As she said that, she watched the direction in which the fisherman was escaping. Seeing that he couldn't run away from the guards and was forcibly detained by the guards, she yelled in panic, "Help! Folks, help me, they are pirates..."

Well?Meng Fuling was ashamed and said they were pirates?Where are they like pirates?
Just as Meng Fuling thought about it, those women and children who were staring at them curiously, some picked up stones from the ground, and some ran to their homes to take out kitchen knives, shovels and other things.

Their actions and reactions are fairly quick, not in line with their age at all, as if they are used to it.

"Mother, they really regarded us as pirates." Little Winter Melon said with a smile without any fear.

"Yes!" Meng Fuling chewed a vague smile on the corner of her lips, watching the women and children go to get the 'weapons', but did not move.

After they all took the 'weapons' they thought were convenient, they surrounded them, and pointed the 'weapons' in their hands at Meng Fuling and the others in unison.

There is an old lady who actually uses the lid of the pot as a shield, and it looks funny with a vigilant expression.

Meng Fuling endured so much that she didn't laugh. These old and weak women and children are not threatening to her.

After all, no matter how bad the guards she brought were, they couldn't beat them.However, if she had to, she would not hurt these innocent people.

The old lady holding the pot lid was the oldest, so everyone else was looking at her, so she had no choice but to bite the bullet and stare fiercely at Meng Fuling, "Where do you come from? What do you want to do? Tell you, don't think about it." Rob us!"

The old lady could tell that Meng Fuling was the most talkative among the group.

"Grandma, have you ever seen pirates robbing people with children?" Meng Fuling teased.

The old lady followed Meng Fuling's gaze and looked at Xiaodonggua, her attitude softened a little, "That's not true."

"If you are not pirates, why did you arrest Wang Laoba?" someone asked.

A woman happened to see the fisherman named Wang Laoba in contact with the guards, and said suspiciously: "Hey! They came to look for Wang Laoba yesterday, and there was no conflict. They shouldn't be pirates, right?"

"It must be someone Wang Laoba knows, maybe Wang Laoba owes money to someone outside again."

"How is it possible? Didn't Wang Laoba get a valuable treasure and make a fortune? Why do you still owe money?"

Meng Fuling didn't expect that the women and children who had just regarded them as pirates started talking about it because of a single sentence, no matter the old or the young, they all showed the ability to gossip.

"Mother, you women are really scary!" Xiao Donggua felt a little annoyed seeing those women and children talking vigorously and noisy.

"Stinky boy, what nonsense are you talking about! Can your mother kiss me like them?" Meng Fuling feigned anger, and knocked on the little wax gourd.

"It's different, of course it's different. My mother is the most amazing woman." Xiao Donggua protected her little head, laughing and flattering Meng Fuling.

While the mother and son were talking, Wang Laoba had already been brought over by the guards, "Ma'am, someone brought it here!"

This Wang Laoba looked like a rascal at first glance, he kept talking, yelling that Meng Fuling and the others were pirates and wanted the women and children present to save him.

Meng Fuling thought, since she left Lingyun Village, how long has it been since she met such a superb product?

"Girl, since you are not pirates, what are you doing here?" The old woman glanced at Wang Laoba, then at Meng Fuling.

"Grandma, my elder brother accidentally fell into the sea and died half a year ago. I have been looking for his body, hoping to bring him home and bury him properly. Not long ago, I found out that his body was salvaged by Lao Wang Ba, so I came to ask him , for some reason, Lao Wang Bay ran away as soon as he saw us."

Meng Fuling couldn't directly tell these people that she wanted to find Wei Longling, so she had to make it up like this.

Moreover, it is said that they are looking for the remains of their relatives, which can make these women and children let down their guard.

Besides, Meng Fuling heard from their words just now that they knew that Wang Laoba had salvaged the corpse and obtained valuables, so what she said convinced them even more.

Sure enough, they all believed it, looked at Meng Fuling with more sympathy, and condemned Wang Laoba one after another.

Xiaodonggua secretly tugged at Meng Fuling's sleeve, and said in a low voice, "Mother, that man is not called Laoba, but Wang Laoba."
