Chapter 10 The Dog Friends Who Turned Their Faces
"It's a good thing, Brother Kang is so thoughtful." Hearing this, Liu Cheng smiled and praised, "On the way here, I heard many people talking about Mr. Kang's heroic spirit."
"All the consumption tonight will be paid for by the prince. I believe this sentence will spread throughout the city tomorrow."
"Yes, Brother Kang is still so proud!"
"Master Kang is a role model for our generation!"
The next few people also clasped their fists and flattered him. This was their usual trick.
But Wang Kang is not an unlucky guy. His mind is particularly clear. He is a little embarrassed: "This repair will cost a lot of money. I want to see if you can pay back the money you owe me?"
Upon hearing this, the expressions of Liu Cheng and others suddenly changed. Liu Cheng hugged Wang Kang and pulled him to a place where there were few people and said: "Brother Kang, how can you say this in public? We didn't make an agreement. This matter can only be done by us."
How many know?"
"It's my fault, I let it slip at the moment," Wang Kang said hoarsely: "But what I said is all the truth. The repairs will cost a lot. I have just passed this catastrophe, and my father doesn't allow me to play too much."
Noisy."
"Young Master Kang, you see it is like this." Liu Cheng said a little unnaturally: "We have been tight on money recently. How much money does your family still have to pay for a big business? Besides, our brothers still care about this.
What more?"
How much money? It really hurts to stand and talk. According to Wang Kang, he learned from the unlucky man's memory that these people had taken away eight thousand gold coins from him.
This number was already huge, and Wang Kang, who had just learned about it, was also shocked. This was simply treating the unlucky guy as a fool.
Taking money in the name of borrowing without any receipt, it was clear that he was planning to commit a crime, and in the end, he even planned a murder.
How could Wang Kang tolerate this kind of thing, and recovering the money is the first step.
Thinking of this, Wang Kang said again: "Brother Liu, your Liu family is the largest family in Yangzhou City besides my Wang family, so you won't be short of this little money!"
"And you, Tong Yue, your family can be considered a wealthy family..."
Every time Wang Kang named someone, their expressions became uglier.
At this time, Liu Cheng smiled again and said: "Brothers came here specially to see you today. Brother Kang can't hurt everyone's harmony because of this little money, right?"
"Having said that, I have already said this, so you can't let me slap you in the face," Wang Kang said again: "You have to give me a time limit no matter what!"
"It seems that Brother Kang is determined to get the money today?" Liu Cheng said, his voice suddenly turned cold.
"It's not that I'm determined to do it," Wang Kang suddenly shouted, and at this time several more people looked this way.
Then he whispered: "It's true that I'm short of money recently. Everyone knows my personality. If I don't spend money for a day, I feel uncomfortable all over!"
After hearing this, Liu Cheng suddenly relaxed and said calmly: "I wonder if Brother Kang has thought about this problem. There has never been any IOU between us!"
"What do you mean?" Wang Kang said deliberately with a straight face.
"What do I mean?" Liu Cheng snorted coldly, "If Brother Kang is really too impatient, then we have no choice but to take this step, right, brothers?"
"Yes, I was concerned about Brother Kang's health and came here specially. Brother Kang asked us for money when we met."
"Brother Kang is unkind, so don't blame us for being unjust!"
Looking at the bad faces of several people, Wang Kang was not too surprised and finally showed his true nature.
If you are used to taking advantage, if you don't go your way at all, your face will change. He understands this very well.
Seeing that Wang Kang was silent, Liu Cheng patted him on the shoulder and said, "Brother Kang, I think this money has been passed over. We are still good brothers."
"Are you really not prepared to repay it?" Wang Kang said coldly. Now that he had broken his heart, Wang Kang was too lazy to make excuses.
Looking at Wang Kang's stern face, Liu Cheng felt a little uneasy. He always felt that Wang Kang today was different from before.
Just as Wang Kang thought, they were not short of money, they just wanted to take advantage of the prodigal son.
Humph, but what can you do with a prodigal son, not to mention there are people behind me, Liu Cheng thought to himself.
Then he said coldly: "I won't pay it back!"
"Okay! If that's the case, then I can only go and ask for it in person!" Wang Kang said calmly.
"It's a joke. There is no witness, no IOU, just your words. We owe you money. I think you were struck dumb by lightning!" Liu Cheng said disdainfully: "So you still owe me money.
.”
"I'll be waiting for your arrival at my house," Liu Cheng smiled darkly and whispered in Wang Kang's ear: "I'm not afraid of you, so let me tell you clearly!"
"Do you know how my Liu family rose? It's because of the support of the governor. Your Wang family can't always be the dominant one, but you, a prodigal son, won't understand this."
"By the way, let me tell you one more thing. Before we approached you to play with you, it was just for your money, because you were stupid and you were a loser!" Liu Cheng added.
Then he laughed and said: "Let's go!" After that, he took the few people who came with him and left together.
Is that so? The governor Dong Yiwu supported the Liu family in order to suppress the Earl's Palace. So, was there anyone behind the plot to assassinate him?
Wang Kang thought to himself, and felt that the water here was really deep, but it was also a bit ridiculous. Human nature is so despicable, and several people who used to be brothers broke up like this.
And it’s still so natural. Friends like foxes and dog friends are really unreliable!
Wang Kang looked at the leaving figures of Liu Cheng and others, with a hint of coldness in his eyes, but if you think that I, Wang Kang, are a fool, then you are really fools.
We will collect the money tomorrow, and then we will calculate the account of the assassination, one by one!
"Master, are you okay?" Zhou Qing came over and asked.
"It's okay." Wang Kang responded calmly and returned to his previous appearance.
Afterwards, Wang Kang gave a few more instructions and then wanted to go back. After all, he had been injured before and was a little tired.
It's almost evening, and the golden afterglow shines on the street with a different kind of beauty.
Wang Kang walked very slowly, looking left and right. He was getting familiar with the world. Walking on the street felt like he had come to an antique street in his previous life, but it was more real here.
This world is not peaceful, there are many independent countries, and the structure is similar to that of the Warring States Period.
The country he was in was the State of Zhao, located in the central part of the mainland. The State of Zhao had three provinces, and the area was not small. There were also counties under the provinces.
Wang Kang is located in Xishan Province,
Jiangxia County, Yangzhou City.
Recalling the regional divisions in his mind, Wang Kang also had a general idea in his mind.
The streets in Yangzhou City are very wide, and the ground is paved with bluestone slabs, which makes them look clean and tidy.
All of this can be attributed to Wang Kang's cheap father. This Earl of Fuyang has contributed a lot to the construction of Yangzhou, and therefore he has a high reputation in Yangzhou.
Just as I was thinking about things, there was a sudden urgent sound!
"Drive! Drive! Drive!"
At this moment, there was a burst of loud shouting from behind, and several fast horses galloped in the middle of the street. "Get out of my way, sir. I will not be held responsible if you knock me down!" On the leading horse, a man
The young man in colorful clothes shouted loudly, and the riding crop in his hand kept ringing...
