Chapter 269 Sun Chu accidentally rescues Su Xuerong
Sun Chu didn't expect Qi Yanzhou to be so teasing, so he quickly caught up with him and blocked his way.
"If you don't mind sleeping with a man, I don't mind sharing a bed with you."
His bed can only be slept by himself!
A sentence that Sun Chu said popped into Qi Yanzhou's mind.
"I'm allergic to women."
He immediately stopped and turned back to the bridal chamber.
"Have someone remove all the clutter in the room."
Sun Chu noticed that Qi Yanzhou's voice was tinged with anger, so he quickly agreed tactfully.
"Okay, I'll have someone clean it up right away."
The gambling house's waiter was quick and efficient. He quickly took away the couple's erotic toys and removed the incense.
After Sun Chu waited for the servant to leave, he asked, "What happened in the inn next door?"
Because he was quite far away, he could only hear the loud noise but couldn't make out what was being said.
Qi Yanzhou briefly explained the matter.
Sun Chu clicked his tongue twice, "Su Chengzong is really crazy, he actually robbed others to make money!"
"He wants not only money, but also human lives!"
If only the silver was stolen, the person who was stolen would definitely report it to the police.
If too many people report the matter to the police, not only will people become panicked, but it will also be easier to find out the truth of the matter.
Therefore, disappearing both the person and the money can avoid a lot of trouble!
After listening to Qi Yanzhou's explanation, Sun Chu said with a sullen face, "Now that you have exposed the fact that the officers and soldiers were thieves, Su Chengzong should calm down a bit."
Qi Yanzhou nodded, "It also gave Song Jingning the opportunity to spread the news that Su Chengzong was going to rebel."
"What's wrong with your brain? It's so useful."
"If you were born in the Qi family, where people are walking on thin ice, your brain would definitely not be bad."
Sun Chu waved his hands repeatedly, "Forget it, playing political games is not suitable for me."
Qi Yanzhou laughed at himself.
"A wise ruler and virtuous ministers are what the Qi family seeks. Unfortunately, apart from Emperor Taizu, no other emperor has been able to do so."
In fact, Emperor Taizu had already been on guard against the Qi family in his later years.
It's just that at that time, Emperor Taizu still needed the Qi family to stabilize the border and expel the northern barbarians, so he endured the words "achievements are too great to be tolerated."
Sun Chu sighed, "The royal family's kingdom was won through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, so the emperor is naturally suspicious. After all, how can he allow others to snore on his bed?"
After saying that, he yawned.
"Su Xuerong is well protected by Su Chengzong. I am still trying to find out her whereabouts. I estimate that the result will be known at noon tomorrow. You should go to bed early."
Qi Yanzhou grabbed Sun Chu who was about to leave.
"I went to Li's Winery tonight and heard a piece of news. Find someone to confirm it."
"Okay, go ahead."
"Su Xuerong is most likely not Su Chengzong's daughter. If that's the case, her mother, Aunt Fang, can be used by me."
Sun Chu heard this rumor when he was inquiring about the Su family.
After Su Chengzong learned that some people doubted Su Xuerong's background, in order to stop the rumors, he immediately performed a blood test with her.
He was the one who arranged the tools for the paternity test, so there was no way there could be any mistakes.
Then he came to the conclusion that he and Su Xuerong were father and daughter.
This is bullshit!
When Sun Chu heard this conclusion, he wanted to throw his junior high school biology textbook in Su Chengzong's face.
As long as two people have the same blood type, their blood will mix, okay?
Moreover, if blood stays in water for a long time, the cell walls will be compressed and ruptured, so even if the blood types are different, they will eventually mix.
Of course, this fusion is only visible to the naked eye. If you look at it through a microscope, you will not see any fusion.
Therefore, after hearing about the absurd method of testing paternity, Sun Chu immediately transformed himself into an old scholar and explained the method to the people around him.
result……
He was slapped in the face!
because.
The blood test is real.
He asked countless people to verify it, trying to overturn the absurd conclusion.
The result made him doubt his life!
The scientifically based knowledge he learned was actually contrary to the rules of this fictional world!
It was as if he lived in a fictional book, and the author gave the blood test authenticity, so it really existed.
Sun Chu thought a lot, but time passed in just a moment.
He said to Qi Yanzhou: "Su Chengzong and Su Xuerong have a blood test and are biologically father and daughter."
Qi Yanzhou denied Sun Chu's words.
"A blood test can only prove that they are relatives, but it cannot prove that they are father and daughter."
Sun Chu looked surprised.
"You mean to say that Aunt Fang's fiancé is a relative who is close to Su Chengzong?"
"Whether it is or not, you will know after checking."
If the two were father and daughter, he would have only lost a little time.
If the two were not father and daughter, he would be sure to make Aunt Fang turn against him.
Qi Yanzhou believed that a woman who dared to commit suicide with her fiancé would never live for the sake of her enemy's child!
Sun Chu yawned and said, "Okay, I'll give you the results tomorrow."
After saying that, he went back to his room and slammed the door shut.
It was as if he was afraid that Qi Yanzhou would sleep in the same bed with him.
Qi Yanzhou closed the door and slept soundly that night.
When I woke up the next day, the sun was already high in the sky.
After washing up, he went downstairs to eat and heard people talking about the theft that happened in the inn last night.
"What's wrong with the prefect recently? The cases he's trying are getting more and more outrageous."
"That is to say, even though the thief ran away and no one was robbed, we can't just pretend nothing happened, right?"
"The rumor must be true. The thief is General Su's man, and General Su wants to rebel!"
"Hush! Don't say that. You'll be held accountable."
Seeing that the rumors unfavorable to Su Chengzong had spread, Qi Yanzhou ate his meal in peace.
After eating, he went to look for Sun Chu, but found that he was not there.
The manager said that Sun Chu was called away by the soldiers early in the morning.
Apparently, Su Chengzong was unhappy with the fact that he was living in Qianjin Casino, so he called Sun Chu over and gave him a beating.
Qi Yanzhou went to the prefectural government as a reporter and wanted to meet the prefect, Wu Changfeng.
As a result, he didn't even enter the gate of the government office.
The yamen runner outside the mansion said, "You didn't lose anything, so why are you here? The prefect is already investigating the theft. Go back and wait for news."
"I know what the thief looks like and can draw him, so that the officials can catch him."
"The prefectural painter has already painted the portrait. You don't need to worry about it. Go away!"
Qi Yanzhou glanced at the government gate that looked like the mouth of a giant beast, then turned and left.
He noticed someone following him, but ignored it.
Su Chengzong suffered a loss at the hands of a "small vendor" and would definitely not let it go. He wanted to kill him to vent his anger.
So, he didn't cause any trouble for himself and went back to Qianjin Casino.
***
at this time.
Sun Chu was visiting the Su Mansion.
Su Chengzong held the teacup in one hand and the lid in the other to stir the tea.
The cup lids collided, making a crisp sound, giving people a sense of invisible pressure.
Sun Chu seemed not to feel it. He drank his tea slowly and made a few comments from time to time.
"General Su, I have some top-grade cloud tea that has just arrived. It tastes great. I'll send some to you later."
The implication is that the tea from the Su Mansion is not tasty.
Su Chengzong was already in a bad mood, and when he heard this, his face turned dark.
"Master Su, the world is about to be in chaos. Your 30% profit cannot guarantee your safety. This general wants another 20%!"
Sun Chu pretended to be frightened and the cup in his hand fell out of his hand.
The fine white jade cup fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.
The tea splashes everywhere and the fragrance of tea spreads.
"General Su, I can't afford 50% of the gross profit. I will lose money!"
Su Chengzong looked at the broken porcelain pieces on the ground and felt heartbroken.
This is his favorite teacup!
But if he wanted to get back ten or a hundred times what he got from Sun Chu, his mood would immediately improve.
"Mr. Sun, you are joking. Gambling is a business that makes a lot of money without any investment. Even if I want 60%, you won't lose."
Sun Chu twitched his lips speechlessly.
"General Su, you are joking. I have more than a hundred people to support, and there are also various materials to consume, which is a huge sum of money.
Moreover, I spent nearly 500,000 taels of silver to build the gambling house. After deducting the expenses and the share given to you gentlemen, it will take me ten years to make a profit.
The general asked for an extra 20% gross profit right away. I really can't afford the loss. If you don't believe me, you can check the account book. ”
Because the gambling house had to share the money with the prefect, the governor and the commander of the garrison, each of these three people sent someone to manage the accounts to prevent him from committing fraud.
But they didn't know that money makes the world go round, and Sun Chu had already bribed the three accountants.
From the beginning to the end, the account books shown to the government were all fake!
It seems that he gave away 30%, but in fact, he gave away less than 10%.
Playing tricks on businessmen, how ridiculous!
Su Chengzong didn't know there was a problem with the account book.
So in his opinion, asking Sun Chu to take out 50% of the gross profit was indeed a bit too much.
But what does it have to do with him?
He didn't know how long he could keep his ambition hidden, so he had to get more money as soon as possible.
So he pretended to back down.
"This general also knows how difficult it is for Mr. Sun. How about this? I'll ask for an extra 10%, but you have to give me one year's supply at once."
Sun Chu's face was hit by Su Chengzong's abacus beads and he rolled his eyes in his heart.
He picked up an upside-down cup on the table and poured himself a cup of tea.
"General Su, you know very well how much money my gambling house can make in a year. If I give you an extra 10% of the gross profit, I won't even make a penny of my hard-earned money. What's the point?"
Seeing that Sun Chu was still refusing, Su Chengzong was so angry that he put the cup heavily on the table.
"Mr. Sun, I'm not discussing this with you!"
Sun Chu didn't expect Su Chengzong's attitude to be so tough.
He took a sip of tea slowly and asked, "What if I don't agree?"
Su Chengzong smiled and said, "In this world, people die every day."
Sun Chu's face darkened. "General Sun, are you planning to take over the Qianjin Casino?"
"Mr. Sun, you misunderstood. This general is just reminding you that the world is not peaceful. You should be more careful when you go out next time."
"So, the people who stole from the inn last night were the general's men?"
Su Chengzong narrowed his eyes slightly, "Young Master Sun, be careful with your words!"
After the threat, he returned to the topic.
"10% gross profit, will you give it to me, Mr. Sun?"
Sun Chu put down the teacup in his hand and looked at Su Chengzong who had a cold face.
"General Su, let's make a deal."
"What deal?"
"General Su wants so much money, is it to recruit soldiers?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Su Chengzong's face changed drastically. He immediately pulled out a dagger from his boots and put it across Sun Chu's neck.
"If you want to die, don't implicate this general!"
The sharp blade cut through the skin, and blood stained the light-colored collar.
Sun Chu ignored the pain and said with a smile: "Don't panic, General. Wait until I finish speaking, and then you can decide whether to kill me or not."
Su Chengzong slightly reduced the strength in his hands.
"If what you say does not satisfy me, don't even think about stepping out of the Su Mansion today!"
"General Su should know that I have gambling houses and restaurants in the prefectures and counties north of the capital. The money I gave you is only a small part. Even if you rob my gambling house, you won't make as much money as you want."
These words touched Su Chengzong's heart.
Maintaining an army is very expensive.
That's why he would do whatever it takes to steal and rob.
"continue."
Sun Chu took away the bloody dagger and covered the wound on his neck with his hand.
"General Su, let's cooperate."
"How to cooperate?"
"I want the Wan Neng Sect to become a royal merchant and make all the money in the world. If General Su can help me do this, I will give you 10% of the net profit of the Wan Neng Sect."
It's just a big promise, he just keeps talking.
Su Chengzong was very excited by Sun Chu's words.
He knew too well how rich Sun Chu was.
Let alone giving him 10%, even if you only give him half of it, it would still be a mountain of gold and silver that you can never spend.
But he was not blinded by the huge profits, for fear of being cheated by Sun Chu.
After all, businessmen are so cunning!
No matter how good Sun Chu's promise was, it was useless.
Because once he leaves Ningzhou City, he won't be able to control him!
"Mr. Sun, I can cooperate with you, but you have to show your sincerity first."
"That's natural, I'm willing..."
Just as Sun Chu was about to offer a deposit as a sign of sincerity, he was interrupted by Su Chengzong.
"Mr. Sun, marry my daughter. With a marriage relationship, the cooperation will be more reliable."
Sun Chu: “…”
You just said you would use the beauty trap last night, and it came true today?
He quickly made up a lie, "General Su, to be honest, I am a homosexual."
Su Chengzong was stunned for a while, then said, "This general has many illegitimate sons, and Mr. Sun can pick one or two at will."
Sun Chu: “!!!”
This Su Chengzong is simply crazy!
"General Su..."
Su Chengzong heard that Sun Chu wanted to refuse, so he once again placed the dagger across the other side of his neck.
"Why? Master Sun, do you think this general's son is not worthy of you?"
He had nearly twenty concubines and a large number of illegitimate sons and daughters. It didn't matter to him to use some of them.
Seeing that Su Chengzong was angry, Sun Chu quickly said, "General Su misunderstood. I was afraid that I would wrong your son."
"It's not unfair. This general happens to have a son who is also gay."
Sun Chu: “???”
There's no chatting today.
"Thank you for your kindness, General. I will come back to visit you when the time is right and meet you, Master."
"No need to wait until another day, today."
Su Chengzong actually had a son who was a homosexual. He was weak and frail, with a feminine look.
When he found out, he almost killed his son.
Later, thinking that there were many officials who were fond of homosexuality, she suppressed her disgust and kept her son.
It just comes in handy now.
Soon, Su Chengzong's illegitimate son Su Rui arrived.
A hint of sissy style.
Sun Chu felt extremely uncomfortable seeing this.
He wanted to slap himself twice.
Let you talk dirty!
Under the coercion of Su Chengzong, Sun Chu had no choice but to agree to marry Su Rui and agreed to come back in five days to propose.
Su Rui was very pleased with the handsome and tall Sun Chu and kept sticking to him.
Sun Chu was so scared that he got goose bumps all over his body.
In order to avoid gossip from others, Su Rui will marry Sun Chu as a bride.
Su Chengzong also had a concubine's daughter, who was supposed to give birth to a son for Sun Chu and inherit his property.
Sun Chu's three views were shattered.
While avoiding the clingy Su Rui, he cursed in his heart and greeted all the ancestors of the Su family for generations.
"General Su, it's getting late. Goodbye."
"Still call me General Su?"
Sun Chu gritted his teeth and uttered two words with difficulty.
"father in law."
Su Chengzong nodded with satisfaction, "Go back, don't even think about running away, I'll send someone to keep an eye on you."
"Don't worry, father-in-law. Merchants honor their promises and will never break them."
After Sun Chu finished speaking, he was about to leave, but was stopped by Su Chengzong.
"Ah Chu, help me get rid of the Liangzhou merchant who sells barley wine and lives in your gambling house."
"Father-in-law, you can't do that. If this man dies in the gambling house and I marry your son the next moment, everyone will think it was you who did it, and the rumors that we suppressed with great difficulty will spread even more fiercely."
Su Chengzong slapped the table.
"Should I be asked to endure this?"
"Of course not. He is just a businessman who doesn't know how to live or die. Of course he can be killed. We just have to choose the right time."
"I'll leave this matter to you. Please handle it before the appointment."
Sun Chu bowed and saluted, "Yes, father-in-law, I'm leaving now."
After saying this, he fled from the Su Mansion.
Feeling unlucky, he decided to go to Wanfuji Temple to burn some incense and worship Buddha.
By the way, find out about Su Xuerong's background.
Wanfu Temple is located in the southeast corner of Ningzhou City. It covers a vast area and is built like a royal garden.
There are small bridges, flowing water, pavilions, winding corridors, gardens and lakes.
These were all built by Su Chengzong over several years for his daughter Su Xuerong to recuperate in Wanfu Temple.
Just as Sun Chu was about to enter the alley where Wanfu Temple was located, he saw a carriage out of control and rushing towards him quickly.
The alley is quite wide and can accommodate two carriages.
But the frightened horse rushed forward recklessly, knocking down several civilians who were unable to dodge.
A woman's panicked scream was heard from inside the carriage.
"Help! Save my lady!"
Sun Chu looked at the carriage getting closer and closer and immediately flew forward.
He picked up the child who was almost knocked away and put him into the hands of the frightened woman nearby.
Then he reached out for the reins, trying to stop the carriage.
But a galloping horse is not so easy to control.
After several unsuccessful attempts, he decided to kill the horse.
Human life is always more important than horse life.
Sun Chu took out a soft thread from his waist and put it around the horse's neck.
The filament was as sharp as a blade, and under the huge momentum of the horse, it easily cut off its neck.
After the horse's head fell to the ground, its body continued to move forward a few steps due to inertia.
When the horse fell to the ground with a thud, the shaft of the speeding carriage hit the bluestone floor.
If the carriage stops suddenly, the people inside will fly out.
If it falls to the ground, it will definitely take half its life.
Thinking of this, Sun Chu immediately flew over to rescue people.
As a result, just as he reached the door, he was hit by the woman who flew out of the carriage and fell to the ground.
The next moment, the woman fell on him, almost making him vomit blood.
The wound on his neck that had just healed was broken.
Then another woman rolled out of the carriage.
He suffered secondary injury.
Sun Chu rolled his eyes and said unhappily to the woman lying on top of him, "What are you still standing there for? Get up!"
As a result, the woman on top of him didn't move at all.
"Isn't this a scam?"
The onlookers didn't understand what "碰瓷" meant.
Seeing that Sun Chu looked bad and had blood on his neck, they quickly asked the woman to come forward to help and lift the two women up.
"Oh, this girl seems to be out of breath?"
"Your face is so pale, you can't tell at a glance that you are a living person!"
"Her body is warm, so she must have died not long ago."
"Was he killed by being smashed?"
These words frightened Sun Chu so much that he immediately sat up and reached out to feel the woman's pulse on her neck.
As soon as his hand touched the warm and delicate skin, it was pushed away forcefully.
"Don't touch my lady, you scoundrel!"
Sun Chu: “…”
How can a man endure this?
"You were the one who yelled and screamed in the carriage, asking me to save people. After I saved them, I was injured internally. But you turned your face and refused to admit it. How shameless!"
The maid ignored the angry Sun Chu and immediately poured the broken medicine bottle in her arms onto her gauze skirt.
She picked up a black pill, wiped off the bottle debris on it, and quickly put it into the lady's mouth.
But the lady had fainted and was unable to swallow on her own.
When the maid saw this, she became so anxious that tears welled up in her eyes.
She shouted to the onlookers, "Go find a doctor and save my young lady!"
The people thought that the pale-faced woman was dead.
But the maid was unwilling to accept the fact.
"Girl, I'm sorry!"
The maid was furious and yelled, "Go call the doctor! If my general knew that you didn't save the young lady, he would definitely exterminate your entire clan!"
She knew that the young lady had a kind heart and hated the use of power to oppress others.
But in an emergency, saving lives is the most important thing.
When the people heard that the one in trouble was General Su's daughter, they hurried to call for a doctor.
But there was no clinic nearby, and it took a lot of time to go there and back.
Sun Chu looked at the weak woman held in the maid's arms and guessed her identity.
Su Xuerong!
He didn't expect that the person he had been looking for so hard would appear in front of him in a dying state so soon.
I'm really sleepy, so please hand me the pillow.
While rubbing his heart which was hurt by the blow, he said to the maid, "I know medicine and can help your young lady swallow the medicine."
The maid looked at Sun Chu warily, suspecting that he was in cahoots with the people who harmed the young lady.
Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?
Sun Chu reminded: "The doctor can't come in a short time. Let your young lady take the medicine as soon as possible, so she will be less dangerous. I know your general and I will not harm her."
Of course the maid knew that the young lady had to take medicine immediately after she fell ill, otherwise her life would be in danger.
She stared at Sun Chu fiercely and threatened: "If you lie, my general will cut you into pieces!"
Sun Chu was speechless when he saw the confused maid.
"You should ask for help with the attitude of asking for help. I won't help you. If your young lady dies, it's your fault."
After Sun Chu finished speaking, he stood up, dusted himself off, and went towards Wanfu Temple.
The maid thought Sun Chu was acting, but she didn't expect him to walk further and further away.
She suddenly panicked.
"Sir, please don't leave. I know I was wrong. Please don't hold it against me."
"My young lady has had poor health since she was young, but she has a kind heart and is a good person."
"Saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. Please save my young lady."
Sun Chu stopped and turned to look at the maid with a teasing look in his eyes.
"That's it?"
He is not a pushover. Even when being humiliated and threatened, he still rushes to rescue people.
If you want him to take action, you have to show enough sincerity.
He is no "cheapie"!
