Chapter 44: The World's No. 1 Merchant
Mother Xia was a little worried. After Father Xia found out, he just sent some things to them and left them alone.
It's not a deep mountain forest, it's our own farm, there's nothing to worry about.
The recruitment fair is still going on and the organizers are very anxious.
I don’t know what the master wants. I have brought a lot of new things, but the master doesn’t like any of them.
internal.
In a courtyard of the world's number one merchant.
The so-called master was leisurely drinking tea at home.
"Master, what are you looking for this time?" The person who had been following Wen Li was bolder and spoke with his head lowered.
There are a lot of good things these days, but the master doesn’t like any of them.
"I don't know." Wen Li shook his head. His original intention was to see if there were any talented people who could be recruited.
But I didn't expect that the things sent were all useless.
The people below didn't dare to ask more questions.
Wen Li was very relaxed and contented.
There's no rush. He's still recuperating anyway, so there's no need to rush back. It's a rare opportunity to have some free time to go out for a walk, and he doesn't want to go back so early to face those disgusting people.
The best business in the world was founded by his mother, and his subordinates were all capable people. If he were not his mother's son, it would not be easy to win these people back.
Of course, it's not impossible for him to do it.
It just takes time.
But he really couldn't understand how his mother, a woman from the boudoir, could build such a business empire.
What is even more puzzling is how she could marry into the royal family and lose her life for such a man.
His mother and her family have never appeared since then. Ever since he was old enough to understand, he has been taught by two people who claim to be his mother's subordinates.
Even the father did not dare to criticize their teaching.
Over the years, he has been suppressed and had to pretend to be weak.
His father couldn't help him overtly, so he had to rely on himself to survive everything.
After more than ten years, his heart has been exhausted. If possible, he really wants to throw away his identity and live freely in the world.
But his mother's death is the knot that he cannot let go of.
If he doesn't avenge his mother, he is not worthy of being a son.
So I have been surviving in that big vortex, just to be able to bring those people down with my own hands one day and make them live a life worse than death.
Recalling some past events, Wen Li felt very depressed.
"Dayi." He called out to the air, "Come out for a walk with me."
He is a man who will not let himself be wronged, and he will not let himself be wronged after leaving the imperial city.
Dayi and the others followed their master silently.
Although they didn't know where their master wanted to go, they didn't ask too much and just fulfilled their duties.
Nancheng is indeed prosperous, but he is in the center of power and wealth and has witnessed all kinds of prosperity. Now he prefers the leisure among mountains and rivers.
After getting away from the hustle and bustle of South City, Wen Li let Dayi drive the carriage as he pleased.
No matter where he goes, he has nothing to do these days anyway.
Uncle Feng is there for everything.
After walking for an unknown amount of time, they finally reached the foot of a mountain and stopped the carriage.
"Master, there is no way out." He said respectfully.
I saw a slender hand gently lift the curtain of the carriage, and a face as beautiful as jade and unparalleled in the world appeared outside.
"What a great place! Let's go and enjoy the scenery with me."
Wen Li looked very noble, but his behavior was not like that of a nobleman at all. Instead, he looked more like a gangster.
Dayi and the others did not dare to stop their master any further.
Can only follow.
There was no road on the mountain originally, it was all stepped out by people step by step.
Dayi was leading the way, and he tried to walk on flatter areas.
Before they knew it, they had entered the deep mountains.
Autumn is a season of harvest, and wild fruits are everywhere in the mountains.
Wen Li is not the kind of person who is ignorant of the sufferings of the world. If he sees any good-looking wild fruits, he will taste them one by one.
Let the freshmen pick more delicious ones.
The food didn’t taste good, and Wen Li’s brows were furrowed.
These days, Xia Zixuan wanted to learn more from his elder sister, and he took her to the mountains every day.
Fortunately, his parents were not around, otherwise he would definitely be beaten.
"Sister, what are we eating today?" He had been enjoying a feast these past few days, as his sister prepared lots of delicious food for him all day long.
"What do you want to eat?" This place no longer belonged to the Xia family's village. They entered the back mountain of the local village.
Here the mountains are deeper and more lush.
The mountains are home to many good things.
For example, some medicinal herbs, some wild fruits, wild vegetables, etc. "Sister, I like everything you cook." He is not picky. Of course, he is not qualified to be picky. What if Sister gets annoyed?
"Okay, let's find a water source first. Looking at these trees, I'm afraid there's a water source not far away. Let's talk about it after we get to the water source." It's true, after taking a walk outside, my heart feels much more open.
No wonder that girl loves traveling and running around the world.
Thinking of that girl, Xia Yutong missed her old friend again.
After walking for about half an hour, they finally heard the sound of water.
However, there were some anxious words mixed in with the sound of water.
"Xiaoxuan, walk faster, I'm afraid someone has been bitten by a snake." The only people who can enter this deep mountain are probably local villagers.
Xia Yutong is not a saint, but she will not ignore human life.
"Yeah." Xiaoxuan has strong internal strength, so of course he can hear what his elder sister can hear.
The two quickened their pace and soon saw three people near the water source, one of whom was lying on the ground.
There were also several snake bodies lying around them, which had been cut off by swords.
Xia Yutong recognized what kind of snake it was at a glance, a belly viper.
One of the ten most venomous snakes in the world.
No matter who they are, Xia Yutong will not stand by and watch them die.
But when she got closer, she regretted it.
"Why is it him?" He was stunned for a moment and muttered softly.
Xia Zixuan was only paying attention to the person lying on the ground and didn't hear what his sister was mumbling.
"Oh my God, have you disturbed a nest of snakes?" Xia Zixuan was frightened as soon as he approached.
When the freshmen and sophomores saw someone coming, they immediately became alert.
But when the two saw who was coming, they immediately relaxed.
"Sir, can you detoxify me?" They knew about this poison, but they had no antidote.
Seeing that the visitor had spoken the truth, he immediately asked.
Xia Zixuan shook his head and said, "There's nothing I can do. In his situation, I think you should have given him an antidote pill." Otherwise, this man would have died long ago.
After understanding the situation clearly, Xia Zixuan retreated to his sister's side and said, "Sister, this poison is very powerful."
When they first met Xia Yutong, they immediately bowed and said, "Hello, Miss Xia. Please help my son." They were also at a loss.
Xia Yutong was speechless. Did she know them?
Humph, even if they know each other, they must have a grudge against each other. "You think too much. I can't do any medicine." Ha, I won't save this shameless man.
Xia Zixuan wasn't stupid, he could tell: "Sister, do you know these people?"
Xia Yutong had no intention of lying to her brother, so she nodded and said, "I know him."
