Chapter 93 Zhuge Wolong
There are many fairy mountains in Shu, and Emei is far away.
The land of Western Shu is full of mountains and steep mountains and beautiful scenery. Many laity masters live in seclusion here, which can be said to be a crouching tiger and a hidden dragon.
On the rugged Shu Road, a young man walked with a medicine box and gnawed steamed buns while enjoying the scenery along the way. Next to him was a girl in red, Wu Jun and Qin Yueer who had returned from the Western Regions.
After swallowing the last bite of steamed bun, Wu Jun took out the map and looked at it, saying, "The place in front is called Wolonggang. In the past, Wolonggang is Shuzhong. The lanterns there are very famous. Otherwise, we will continue to set off after the Lantern Festival?"
Qin Yue'er nodded, then thought of something, and said with bright eyes: "There is a Wolong Villa on Wolonggang. My mother said that the owner of Wolong Villa has a surname Zhuge. He is a branch of the Zhuge family. He is kind and generous. The food at home is delicious. We can go there for a night."
Upon hearing this, Wu Jun couldn't help but show a surprised expression: "Living in Wolonggang, his surname is Zhuge. Could that owner of the manor be called Zhuge Wolong?"
Qin Yue'er was slightly stunned: "His name is Zhuge Gang."
Wu Jun: "…"
When we arrived at Wolonggang, a grand courtyard appeared in front of the two of us. The gate of the courtyard opened, but there was no one inside.
Wu Jun shouted twice at the door, but received no response. He frowned, looked at Qin Yue'er and walked in together.
The more he walked in, the deeper Wu Jun's brows frowned.
The entire three-entry courtyard was empty, with no figure, and all the furniture was emptied, looking like a dead house.
Seeing this scene, Wu Jun couldn't help but guess: "This family may have moved away."
Qin Yue'er nodded in disappointment and said, "Let's find a room to stay first, and then I'll go and get some wild game back."
While she was talking, she suddenly stopped, looked at the corner alertly, and said, "Someone!"
Wu Jun turned around and saw a man lying in the haystack with his butt sticking out, with a trace of green juice on his lips, and he couldn't help but be stunned: "He seems to be still alive."
Qin Yue'er looked around and guarded Wu Jun to the man. She glanced at the man on the ground and found that he looked in his twenties and was wearing a gorgeous silk robe. She looked like he had a good status and asked with a frown, "What poison is he in?"
Wu Jun reached out and opened the young man's mouth and looked at him, his face suddenly became strange: "It's not poisonous, he has ordinary green grass in his mouth. It seems that he is so hungry that he wants to eat grass to satisfy his hunger, but he still faints... "
Qin Yue'er looked at the young man who fainted from hunger on the ground and said sympathetically: "Give him a steamed bun."
As he finished speaking, the young man suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes glowed green, saying, "How can there be steamed buns!"
Wu Jun laughed slightly and took out a steamed bun. The young man snatched it. The two of them swallowed it into their stomachs. After breathing a sigh of relief, they stood up and bowed politely and said, "Is it a pity for friends to come from afar in Zhugegang, Xiawolong Villa? The hospitality is not good enough. Please forgive me for the two distinguished guests!"
Wu Jun said in a shocked look: "Are you the owner of the manor here?"
Zhuge Gang smiled and nodded: "That's right!"
Wu Jun twitched slightly, "I'm almost starving to death, so don't lose my book bag. Why have you fallen to this point?"
Zhuge Gang smiled faintly and said with a deep look: "I'm just a down and outdated moment, and I don't want to say anything more. I, Zhuge Gang, started doing business at the age of 16, from 10,000 taels a month, 20,000 taels a month, 30,000 taels, and now more than 300,000 taels..."
Speaking of this, he gave a slight salute, and continued to say in Wu Jun's surprise expression when he saw the rich man: "I don't know why I owe so much money."
Wu Jun: "…"
After a while of speechlessness, Wu Jun couldn't help but complain: "You have been losing money from the beginning. For such a long time, haven't you found that you are not suitable for business at all?"
Zhuge Gang was not angry either and smiled and said, "I have found that I am not suitable for business, so I have now changed to sponsoring people to do business and investing in those who are business-minded."
"Not long ago, I met a prince from the Great Wisdom Buddha Kingdom. Their country is now in civil strife and wants to borrow 30,000 taels of silver from me as funds to invite neighboring countries to send troops to quell the rebellion."
"The prince promised me that after the rebellion in their country was quelled, I would give me 30,000 taels of gold and twenty beauties, and I would also be granted the title of their country!"
Wu Jun looked at Zhuge Gang's smiling face with a strange expression and asked, "You won't really give him 30,000 taels, right?"
Zhuge Gang sneered: "Of course not, I'm not stupid."
Wu Jun breathed a sigh of relief, and then he continued with great enthusiasm: "Since you want to invest, of course you have to invest to make the big ones. In the end, I spent all my money and raised 100,000 taels of silver, and let the prince take them away. Before he left, I became sworn brothers with him!"
"When my righteous brother quells the rebellion, I will be the number one hero of the Great Wisdom Buddha Kingdom. With my merits and talents, I will definitely be the best candidate for the prime minister!"
Wu Jun: "…"
Looking at the investment genius in front of him, Wu Jun's eyelids twitched a few times, and he looked at him for a while without saying a word, and finally said, "I came back from the Great Wisdom Buddha Kingdom. I have two news here, one is good and the other is bad. Which one do you want to listen to first?"
Zhuge Gang was slightly stunned, stared at Wu Jun up and down for a few times, and said, "Let's tell you bad news first."
Wu Jun nodded: "The bad news is that at the call of monks, more than 90% of the soldiers and serfs in the Great Wisdom Buddha Kingdom collectively turned against each other, and overthrew the original lord without any effort. The situation had long stabilized again.
Moreover, many Buddhist countries in the Western Regions are undergoing a major change, and they are unable to even take care of themselves and are unable to send troops to help other countries. Therefore, your righteous brother has no chance to turn the tables."
Zhuge Gang's face suddenly became ugly, and he said in a trembling voice: "What about the good news?"
Wu Jun said with pity: "The good news is that there is no prince left outside the Great Wisdom Buddha Kingdom, so you don't need the safety of your righteous brother."
"What's the best news!"
Zhuge Gang suddenly glared at his eyes, and under the strong stimulation, his eyes turned dark and he lay down on the grass.
When Zhuge Gang woke up again, he found that he was already in the house.
Wu Jun was barbecuing the rabbit in the open hall, while looking through his account book.
Seeing Zhuge Gang wake up, Wu Jun threw a rabbit leg to him and said, "Your account book is full of fake accounts, and even half of the money from the seller's property was cheated. According to the current situation, you should have been deliberately targeted."
