"Let's go, let's go and beg for some money before the station closes." Bai Tao said this and rushed out of the car in a hurry without waiting for Li Mu to reply.
Li Mu shook his head helplessly and got off the bus slowly.
It was already very late, the city was brightly lit, and pedestrians in twos and threes were hurrying along the road.
Bai Tao was already squatting at the station exit, put a broken bowl in front of him, and started working.
"Thank you, brother!"
“Thank you ma’am!”
"Thank you, thank you!"
…………
Bai Tao's "business" seemed to be good, and he kept thanking passers-by. Li Mu stood in the distance and did not follow him. He still had to save face, but Bai Tao had long been accustomed to this kind of life, and it was not in his best interest to force anyone to leave.
At this moment, a clear voice sounded beside Li Mu's ears: "For you."
Li Mu looked up and saw a very pretty girl standing opposite him, holding a hundred-dollar bill in her hand, which she was handing to Li Mu.
Li Mu was speechless. Was he treated as a beggar again? However, Li Mu had already calmed down and was not angry about it.
"Take it!" The girl took Li Mu's hand and stuffed the million-dollar bill into his hand. "I can tell you're inexperienced. You won't get any money like this. You have to be like that guy in the future."
The girl pointed at Bai Tao not far away, then turned and left.
"I don't, it's not me!" Li Mu was helpless. It seemed that he had to change his clothes.
As Li Mu was thinking, a rough and aggressive man shouted at him: "Hey~ Who told you to ask for money in my territory?"
Looking back, I saw another person with a similar dressing style. This person looked quite professional, holding a wooden stick in one hand and a broken bowl in the other.
Li Mu was about to explain something when Bai Tao rushed over and said, "It's a misunderstanding, brother Cao Quan, it's all a misunderstanding! This is Li Mu, he just arrived and doesn't know the rules very well."
"Who is your brother? Bai Tao, am I familiar with you? We haven't met for 300 years, right? Don't try to get close to me!" Cao Quan said unhappily.
"Hey, we are all members of the union, don't be so stingy." Bai Tao said.
"It was only for the sake of the union that I didn't stop you just now. Who would have known that not only would you come here to bargain by yourself, but you also brought someone with you, and this person snatched a big order from me as soon as he came!" Cao Quan said angrily.
"Big order?" Bai Tao was puzzled. Suddenly, he saw a hundred-yuan bill in Li Mu's hand and asked in surprise, "Where did you get this money, kid?"
"A little girl just forced it on me." Li Mu said helplessly.
"This...you are quite capable, kid. I just asked for a few dollars after I had to talk my mouth off, and you came with 100! You have a bright future!" Bai Tao exclaimed in amazement.
"I said, I will not be a beggar, and I will not take this money. Since this brother said that I stole his business, then I will return the money to you." Li Mu smiled bitterly and handed the hundred yuan in his hand to Cao Quan.
"Hmph! Who cares! I, Cao Quan, also have my dignity. I was only warning you just now. Take the money yourself. I won't do it again next time!" Cao Quan snorted coldly.
"Alas~ Brother Li Mu, he is just like this in his temper. Don't mind it. Hehe, do you know what realm he was in before?" Bai Tao said with a smile.
"Come on, why bring up the past!" Cao Quan obviously didn't like to reminisce about the past.
But Bai Tao didn't care about him. They were all at the bottom of the world. Who was afraid of who? So he said to Li Mu in a mean way, "He was the Chaos God Ancestor. Haha, you never expected that, did you?"
Li Mu looked at the dishevelled man in front of him with a wooden stick in one hand and a broken bowl in the other with some surprise. How could this man be stronger than Bai Tao? Bai Tao, the Eternal Immortal Ancestor, was an existence that Li Mu could only dream of, but this Cao Quan was actually one level higher than Bai Tao!
"So, brother Li Mu, forget about your past glory! The Chaos God has accepted his fate, but you are still holding on to illusions." Bai Tao never forgot to do ideological work on Li Mu, trying to make Li Mu content himself with being a beggar with them.
However, when Bai Tao was talking to Li Mu with great excitement, he did not notice the change in Cao Quan's expression. Finally, Cao Quan could no longer bear it and raised the wooden stick in his hand to hit Bai Tao, shouting: "I will beat you to death! I told you not to mention the past but you insisted on bringing it up!"
Bai Tao was so scared that he ran away, begging for mercy: "Ah~? Brother Cao Quan, I was wrong!"
…………
After dozens of seconds, the two men calmed down and sat on the side of the road, gasping for air. Their physical condition was too poor.
"Hu~Hu~, Bai Tao, today I will forgive you this time because you are also admonishing the newcomers. If you dare to provoke me again next time, I will skin you alive!" Cao Quan said.
"Ha~ha~, Cao Quan, why are you bragging? Do you think you are still the Chaos God Ancestor? You can't even catch up with me." Bai Tao said with disdain.
"Okay, both of you, who can take me to report to the Beggars' Sect?" Li Mu said.
"It's the Begging Alliance!" Bai Tao and the other man said in unison.
"Yes, yes, Begging Alliance, who among you can take me there?"
"You were the one who discovered it, so of course I should take you there. It's too late today, let's do it tomorrow." Bai Tao said. He still had the reward and reimbursement of his travel tickets, so how could he let anyone else take Li Mu there?
Cao Quan snorted coldly, with no intention of stealing the credit.
"Haha, Lao Cao, how about this, how about we just stay at your place tonight?" Bai Tao said with a smile, his attitude making a 180-degree turn.
"Sure, 50 yuan." Cao Quan said.
"You... you Cao Quan, why are you so dark?"
"Too expensive? The cheapest inn in Jianyang City charges 100 yuan per room, or you can sleep under the bridge, it's free there." Cao Quan said indifferently.
"Okay, okay, it's just 50 yuan, I'll give it to you!" Bai Tao said gritting his teeth.
"You won't reimburse me for staying in the inn?" Li Mu asked in confusion when he saw that Bai Tao was reluctant to stay in the inn.
"Reimbursement what the hell? We are beggars. Do you still want to get reimbursement for staying at the inn?" Bai Tao said unhappily.
"oh."
"Hey, Brother Li Mu, you just received a big order, how about you treat us tonight?" Bai Tao was reluctant to pay the money, so he set his sights on the hundred yuan in Li Mu's hand.
"Impossible." Li Mu said indifferently. If he spent the money, wouldn't he really become a beggar? He would not spend the money until the last moment. This was his bottom line.
"Why are you so stingy?" Bai Tao was a little unhappy.
"Haha, since you, Old Bai, are willing to pay for accommodation, then I will ask Brother Cao to take me to your union tomorrow. I think Brother Cao should be very willing to do so, right, Brother Cao?" Li Mu said with a smile.
"Of course. If you don't make money when you have the chance, you're a bastard." Cao Quan said.
"Pa~" Bai Tao took out a 50-yuan bill and slapped it on Cao Quan's chest.
