Chapter 170: Humble Befriending
"Brother Jin, I have a gift for you."
"Absolutely not. I have received so much kindness from Big Brother in my lifetime. Even if I die, I cannot repay him. How can I continue to lick his face and ask for his things?"
"Hey, Brother Jin, it's a bit too polite to say that, isn't it? Besides, if you see this gift, you will definitely like it."
After hearing this, Jin Yong couldn't help but feel a little curious.
What new stuff has my brother bought?
The brother he had recently met was a very generous and magnanimous person, and he was extremely generous.
Thinking back to when he was rejected by the Xia family for marriage proposal, he was so disheartened that he drank to drown his sorrows for a while.
Once, he went to Shenxianzui to drink, but the private rooms were full, so he had to pick a table in the lobby and drank five or six jars of good wine by himself.
He was so drunk that he staggered and forgot to pay the bill, so he got up and left.
He was stopped by the waiter and asked to learn how to make banknotes. He was drunk at the time and forgot to restrain his strength. He just waved his hand and threw the waiter away.
It wasn't a big deal that the waiter fell down, but he just happened to hit his brother's table.
My brother was drinking with his friends and ordered a table full of delicious food. Before he could take two bites, he was knocked over by the waiter who came out of nowhere, and the food and drinks were smashed to pieces.
At that time, my brother's friend wanted to teach me a lesson. Although I was brave, I was drunk after all, and my brother's friend had many good fighters under his command.
The two sides fought fiercely, smashing many tables, chairs and benches in the store and scaring away several tables of customers.
The shopkeeper didn't dare to come over, but he wouldn't let me go either. He jumped up and down and asked me to give an explanation.
I boasted at that time that I could afford to pay any amount of money, but when I touched my belt, I found that my purse was missing.
I don’t know if it was stolen by a thief or if I forgot to bring it when I went out.
When the shopkeeper saw this, he thought he had eaten a free meal and was causing trouble, so he cursed him harshly.
It was his brother who noticed that he was depressed, so he took the initiative to pay money to compensate the store for its losses. He then took his friend and himself to another store and ordered another table.
The two sides became acquainted with each other through fighting, and later met by chance several times in restaurants, brothels, and casinos.
Every time, my brother behaved very generously.
Gradually, the two sides became familiar with each other. The elder brother admired his personality, character and abilities and became his sworn brother.
I slowly cheered myself up.
There is always a better choice.
A real man will never worry about not having a wife!
Xia Yujiao doesn't know how good she is, so why should she hang herself on a tree!
Turning back, he listened to his mother's words, married a wife and took concubines, and had many wives and concubines, so that it would be too late for her to regret!
Jin Yong tried his best but failed to get his mysterious brother to tell him what gift he had prepared.
They drank some wine, chatted, and rode their horses to Huazhi County.
Jin Yong guessed, looking at the direction, could it be heading to Tianxiang Tower?
After my brother found out about my situation, he hired the famous twin sisters to be my prostitutes at Tianxianglou and had them serve me for a whole month...
That month was a really pleasant one...
I wouldn’t change it even for a god!
Thinking of all the good things his brother had done for him, Jin Yong wished he could die for him.
Xiao Lubuhua was riding a strong green horse and galloping ahead.
Of course, he used a pseudonym in front of Jin Yong.
Xiao Lubuhua used the alias Jia Shiqilang, saying that he was a child of mixed Han and Hu descent. He was not liked by his family since he was a child, so he had been wandering around. He loved wine and making friends the most in his life...
In addition to creating a persona of a chivalrous hero, Xiao Lubuhua also continued to spend money on Jin Yong, treating him to drinks, inviting him to the casino, and spending the night or even the month at a brothel...
Xiao Lubuhay used all the tricks that Jin Yong could think of and couldn't think of to find trouble.
On the surface, Xiao Lubuhua admired Jin Yong's martial arts and his personality. He always said what he liked to hear and praised him, allowing Jin Yong to be flattered frequently without even realizing it.
Anyone who is so eager to make friends would be wary.
Jin Yong is no exception.
But after observing for a long time, he found that "Jia Shiqilang" really liked making friends, and he was very generous with money and never worried about money.
Many people in Huazhi County are familiar with Jia Shiqilang.
When people mention this name, they all praise him for his generosity, magnanimity and loyalty, and most importantly, he is very generous and willing to spend money.
Jin Yong asked an acquaintance in the government office to help him inquire and found out that "Jia Shiqilang" had come to Huazhi County a few years ago and had done business here peacefully for several years.
He fed the government officials in Huazhi County well, and everyone who saw him couldn't help but smile like a flower.
Later, because of some family matters, reportedly a major event involving the competition for clan property, he left Huazhi County for a period of time and had little contact with the county.
Later, I heard that the Jia family's business grew bigger and bigger, even expanding to the capital, and they became the imperial merchants for several years... It turned out that during the years when Jia Shiqilang disappeared, he went to live in the capital.
Not only did Jia Shiqilang live in the capital for a period of time, he also made friends with many powerful and influential children in the capital. Relying on his outstanding communication skills, he helped manage the family business.
Later, for some unknown reason, Jia Shiqilang had a falling out with his family.
He hurriedly left the capital and returned to Huazhi County.
Jin Yong secretly checked everything he could, and only then did he really believe that he had actually encountered a big pie that fell from the sky and really made friends with a wealthy businessman and a gangster.
Jia Shiqilang not only values his own temperament and character, but also admires his own abilities, and can be regarded as his confidant.
What virtue or ability have I possessed to deserve such respect from my brother?
Jin Yong mainly felt that since Jia Shiqilang had good relations with so many powerful and wealthy children in the capital, and he still looked up to him when he arrived in Beiguan Town, it was a great honor for him.
After all, if you calculate it this way, my brother is friends with the sons of the powerful and wealthy in the capital, and he is also friends with me. Friends of friends are friends of each other. So, rounding it off, I am also friends with all the sons of the powerful and wealthy in the capital!
Along the way, Jin Yong's thoughts surged like a tide. He recalled many things and made many guesses. But after passing Tianxiang Tower, his brother did not stop. After passing Changlefang, his brother did not stop. After passing Taibai Tower, his brother still did not stop...
Finally, they wandered around and came to a quiet residential area in the midst of a bustling city.
Xiao Lubuhua got off the horse, led his green horse, and walked slowly forward.
Jin Yong jumped off his chestnut horse and followed Xiao Lubuhua, looking around as he walked.
This kind of alley should be where some small and medium-sized merchants live...
Brother, why did you think of coming here?
Chapter has been replaced. Good night, sweet dreams, see you tomorrow.
