Dragon Pattern: The Strangeness of the Sea

No. 087 Tears withered

The next morning, Zhang Datong returned to Xiaoyao Mountain with his two men. Before going back, he also went to Wanhualouhai for a meal. The boss's wife of Wanhualou was a master who only recognized money but not people. Seeing that Datong was rich again, he knew that the fishing song medicine shop must have made some big business and what he had made. With a lot of money, Zhang Datong must have a lot of oil and water.

The boss's wife has been operating the wind and moon place for decades. She has seen all the warmth and coldness of people and knows how smart the world is. Before Zhang Datong can speak, she called all the beautiful red card girls under her to the small box of Zhang Datong. She sang and danced, and persuaded wine and invited songs. A few glasses of yellow wine, that big Tong immediately became rich. The girl in the room was rewarded with a pair of silver, and took out a pair of pearl earrings from her arms and put them on the table.

"Boss's wife, how much do you think these pearl earrings are worth?" Zhang Datong asked with a hiccup.

The boss's wife had never seen any jewelry, so she took the pair of pearl earrings from Zhang Datong's hand and looked at them carefully for a while and exclaimed, "Oh, Boss Zhang, this is not an ordinary thing!" I think that a prince from the capital came to our Wanhua Tower. Before leaving, he took away the most popular Qingcheng girl here. At that time, in order to redeem the Qingcheng girl from me, the prince not only left a thousand taels of gold, but also gave me a lot of jewelry. Then I gave up the Qingcheng girl to That prince, otherwise I don't want to give up this cash cow!"

"That's all the jewelry brought out of the palace! However, compared with Boss Zhang's pair of pearl earrings, the jewelry given to me by the prince was suddenly overdone! Boss Zhang, these pearl earrings are a treasure among treasures. Even in the palace, you may not find a better one than this. Where did you get them? The boss's wife exclaimed.

"Boss's wife, how long do you think I can wrap your Wanhua Building if I give you this pearl earrings?" Zhang Datong asked with a smile.

"This...this..." The boss's wife is stunned. These pearl earrings are very valuable. She never dreamed that Zhang Datong, a straw bag, would want to wrap the Wanhua Tower with pearl earrings. If the pair of pearl earrings are sold, she can buy ten Wanhua Towers! The boss's wife didn't know whether this Datong was serious or joking, or he was just drunk and talking nonsense.

And that Zhang Datong is a famous ruffian hooligan in Yuge Town. He usually takes a group of his men to do things in Yuge Town, and sometimes gathers on the small waist mountain next to the town to rob a business trip. The boss's wife dares not provoke him. If he takes his pearl earrings, he wakes up, regrets and turns over. Isn't it unlucky to come to the Wanhua Tower and make a scene?

"How about a year?" Zhang Datong raised his index finger and gestured, "In this year, your Wanhua Building can still operate as usual, and the girls in the Wanhua Building can continue to receive guests, but if I bring my brothers here, you have to immediately let all the girls stop their work to serve the brothers, how about that?"

The boss's wife pondered for a moment. She could not only do business as usual, but also make this big money. Why not? So she turned her eyes and said to the maid beside her, "Xiao Cui, go to my room and get the paper and pen."

The little maid answered, retreated and took the paper and pen. The boss's wife wrote a contract in front of Zhang Datong and pressed her own fingerprints. With this contract, she was not afraid of repenting after this big colleague. She could open it safely in Yuge Town. Wanhualou has naturally had certain means for many years. If Datong still dares to make trouble after signing the contract, she will make this Datong look good. When she goes to the county magistrate, the county magistrate will also help to stand on her side. After all, she also has a lot of scandals in the county magistrate in her hand. If she is forced, give it all to him. Shake it out and see if the county magistrate can still sit down.

Zhang Datong is a rude person and has no intention to operate at all. He just wants to get money for him and his younger brothers to squander. He even knows the value of this pearl earrings, but he has no intention of taking down Wanhua. On the one hand, he is not suitable for business, and on the other hand, he does not. I have this spare time to take care of the Wanhua Building, because there are more important tasks waiting for him to complete on Xiaowai Mountain.

Zhang Datong and his two men drank wine and were a little drunk. When he saw the boss's wife's contract here, Zhang Datong was not ambiguous. He reached out to take over the paper and pen. He couldn't know shoes, so he drew a circle on the contract. The boss's wife picked up the contract as if it were a treasure and took the contract and pearl earrings in her arms. He retreated with a smile.

Seeing that the boss's wife left, Zhang Datong and his two men took two or three girls, which made them happy.

One night passed, and the next morning, Zhang Datong and his two men also woke up, so they washed up and returned to the small waist mountain.

Back to the small waist mountain, Zhang Datong simply told his men about this matter.

"Brothers, I have chartered this Wanhua Building for a month, but now we have to complete the task assigned by Boss Liu. If we can complete the task within a month, we can get drunk and die in the Wanhua Building in the next year!" Zhang Datong said with a smile. When the mountain thieves and bandits under him heard this, they were so excited that they could go to Wanhua Tower to get drunk and die for a whole year. This is a beautiful thing that they usually dare not think about. These mountain thieves and bandits' eyes are green with women's thoughts one by one, and they can't wait to do what the boss ordered immediately. Let's go to Wanhua Building now.

"I have to say the ugly words in the front. We have taken Boss Liu's money, and there is no reason to return the money. This must be done, or it must be done. This Wanhua Building is open there, and there are no long legs and will not run away. So in this month, you have all cheered me up and do things honestly. Think about him in a month!" After saying that, Zhang Datong walked into the cottage.

Entering the cottage, Zhang Datong walked directly to a small stone house in the center of the cottage. Outside the house, two sleepy mountain thieves were guarded. When he saw the boss coming, he immediately cheered up and got up and opened the door.

Zhang Datong nodded slightly, raised his foot and walked in. He walked into the stone house. There was only one room in the whole stone house. There were seven mountain thieves guarding the room, either sitting, standing or lying down. Some were doting, and some were eating. Seeing Zhang Datong coming in, these mountain thieves stood up one after another to put down the things in their hands for the time being. He shouted respectfully, "Goodbye, boss!"

Looking inside, I saw a large wooden basin in the corner of the whole room. This wooden basin is different from the wooden basin used by ordinary people to take a bath. Obviously, it is much larger and much higher than the wooden basin used for bathing. The wooden basin is full of clear water, and the water is actually A woman lies down!!

The woman looked quite young, at most only seventeen or seventeen or eight. Her hair with her hair on her forehead was wet by water and pressed tightly on both sides of her cheeks. Her face was full of haggardance, and a pair of big watery eyes also looked eclipsed. Hearing the abnormal movement in the house, the woman raised her head and saw Zhang Da's eyes flowing at the same time. There was a little fear.

"How is she doing recently?" Zhang Datong pointed to the woman in the water and asked.

"If you go back to the boss, it will be as usual and honest. Our brothers bring her clean water every day to avoid her illness, and they will also feed her three meals every day." The men on the side replied.

"Ye-huh." Zhang Datong nodded, "How is the output of mackerel tears recently?"

"It's the same as usual. You can cry almost once a day, drop more than a dozen tears at a time, and grind a bag of powder almost a day." The men continued to answer.

"I'm afraid it's not enough to cry once a day..." Zhang Datong shook his head and slowly walked to the edge of the basin. He looked at the woman in the basin and said, "Unconsciously, it has been a year. I think you have suffered a lot here. Do you want to leave here early and get out of the sea of suffering?"

As soon as the woman heard this, she nodded vigorously. After a long time, she seemed to remember something again and immediately shook her head.

"You said that you have lived here for a year. Our brothers have to watch over you every day, and they have to change water and feed you every day. The brothers are also very tired. Well, how about I talk to you about a business that is beneficial to both of us?" Zhang Datong said with a smile, "Recently, a big customer came. He asked for ten boxes of mackerel tears, and the deadline must be completed within one month. If you can let me take out ten boxes of mackerel tears and explain them to Boss Liu in a month, I will let you go. From now on, you don't have to continue to suffer, and I can also accept it. How about taking my brothers to have fun?

"How is this possible?" As soon as the woman heard this, she was surprised and said, "How can I do ten boxes of mackerel tears in just one month?"

The men beside him also said, "Big boss, this is really impossible. You said that these ten boxes of mackerel tears are exactly a thousand bags! How can you let her produce a thousand packs of mackerel tears in a month! If it's normal, it will take three years for her to produce a thousand bags of tears. It seems a little too difficult for you to shrink to a month at once.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay! The money has been collected. Can you still let me break the contract? Zhang Datong said angrily.

"Huh..." The woman in the water looked at Zhang Datong and sneered. She looked at Zhang Datong with quite disdainful eyes and said, "You human beings are really insatiable. A bag of mackerel tears every day has become my limit. Now you want me to produce a thousand bags in a month, which is undoubtedly difficult for strong people, like you. People will never be satisfied, and no matter how much money you have, you can't fill the bottomless hole in your heart!"
