"You damned Zhou Tong, can't you be gentler? I can't even breathe! Can't you learn from your master? A little gentler?"
"Look at what you did to Lord Zeng. His face is green.”
Lord Eight sat on the ground and pointed at Zhou Tong's nose as he lectured him. It was true that Zhou Tong had indeed saved him, but the method he had used to save him had been too crude.
Who would drag him by his collar? Zhou Tong was such a person.
Lord Zeng was already awake on the way, but his collar was around his neck and he couldn't speak at all.
Just like that, he was dragged out by Zhou Tong, looking incomparably miserable. Especially after hearing Lord Eight describe his miserable state, he became even more miserable.
"Ahem, I…"
"Lord Zeng is the only one who is magnanimous and doesn't care. Otherwise, you would have been dragged out and shot! Don't you think so? Lord Zeng."
"Eighth Brother, shut your mouth for me. Zhou Tong, what is going on inside?”
"Lord Zeng, this is for you. This should be the biggest secret in the entire tomb.”
After Zhou Tong threw the Meteorite Copper to Lord Zeng, he explained to everyone what had happened in the cave!
Only then did everyone know that this tomb was actually the tomb of Qing Wuzi, a Feng Shui master from the Nanbei Dynasty.
"This is the general situation inside the tomb. The Japanese people have explored this mine many times, and their purpose should be for meteorite copper.”
"I see. I didn't expect you to experience so much here. Don't worry, when we go back, I'll help you investigate the Yingkou Fallen Dragon incident as promised.”
"Mm, let's go out first. The tomb under the mine has collapsed and lost its support. I don't know when the mine will collapse as well.”
"Alright, everyone rest here for a while, then return to my house. I guarantee that everything will be arranged properly for everyone.”
" Lord Zeng is mighty, Lord Zeng is domineering." These words seemed a little lively in the ruins.
The Second Master looked at the lively atmosphere and couldn't help but smile knowingly, as if he had made a decision. He said to Zhou Tong,
"Zhou Tong, I have something to discuss with you!”
"Master, what else is there to discuss? You can make the decision. I won't object.”
"This matter has something to do with you and Chenpi. Now that you and Chenpi have grown up, you have your own name and territory in Sand City.”
"I want to discuss the matter of splitting the family with you. Don't be in a hurry to refuse.”
"In my generation, I only want to accompany the girl. I usually go to the pear garden to sing and go shopping when the weather is good.”
"I don't want to be tainted by the underground. I'm going to wash my hands of this business when I get back.”
The Second Master's words were not spoken behind his back. On one hand, he was speaking to Zhou Tong, and on the other hand, he was speaking to Lord Zeng and Lord Ba.
After this incident, the Second Master had a feeling that he might have restricted Zhou Tong and Chen Pi's development.
After all, the sky below him was only this big. He was an otaku, but Chen Pi and Zhou Tong were not.
"Second Master, have you thought it through? Zhou Tong is still alright, but I think you know what kind of person Chen Pi is outside!”
"Eighth Brother, I know what you mean. Chenpi is still young. I believe he will definitely get better in the future.”
"Second Master, you…Sigh, we won't care about your own family matters. In short, if Chenpi really does something big, don't blame us for not giving Second Master any face.”
None of the managers of the Nine Gates were simple characters, even Eighth Master Qi.
"I've already thought it through. Zhou Tong, if you have any ideas, you can tell me. I want to hear them.”
Zhou Tong smiled bitterly as he looked at his salted fish master. He knew that he would retire, but he hadn't expected this day to come so quickly.
"Master, what else can I say? Everything is up to you. I have no complaints.”
"In that case, I'll tell you something first. I'm prepared to sell all of the Hong family's halls.”
"Master, even if you don't manage things in the future, you still have to find a way to survive. If you're not willing to manage the matters of the hall, Chen Pi and I can find someone to help you manage it.”
"The annual maintenance fee for such a large residence is not a small figure. Master's wife is weak and needs to take tonics to nurse her body.”
"Money is needed everywhere. Moreover, the situation is so chaotic now. Money is also a price that changes every day.”
"That's right, Second Master. Second Master is right. Even if you don't do this business anymore, you can't sell it to the hall.”
As for Lord Zeng? After working with Zhou Tong a few times, he felt that Zhou Tong was more reliable. It wasn't that the Second Master didn't have the ability, but that the Second Master didn't want anything.
Every time he asked him for help, he would expend a favor, but Zhou Tong was different. He was very clear that if you asked him for help, you could do it, but you had to have benefits, whether it was connections, resources, or channels.
Zhou Tong knew that he needed it. If you asked me for something, it would be much easier for me to ask you for something.
As for the friendship between them, it would only increase with the number of times they worked together, and would not decrease.
The Second Master carefully thought about it. It was indeed as Zhou Tong had said, there would be a lot of places to spend money in the future. Putting aside everything else, just buying tonics for the girl to nurse her body every year would be a considerable expenditure.
The Second Master felt that Zhou Tong was very touched by his consideration for his future, and said with a smile,
"Then what's the difference between splitting up and not splitting up? In the end, you and Chen Pi didn't get anything.”
"Master, it doesn't matter to me and Chen Pi whether we got it or not.”
"The two of us are more concerned about the lives of you and Master's wife. You guys are living well, and Chenpi and I are at a loss even if we don't want anything.”
"You guys are not living well. Even if we move all your things away, we definitely won't feel good.”
"As for you wanting to wash your hands of this industry, you can think about it when you go back.”
"Lord Zeng, it's getting late, and the mine could collapse at any time. Let's leave the mine first and talk about this when we get back!”
Zhou Tong immediately changed the subject, hoping that his master would not be entangled in this matter. This matter was bound to be fruitless.
They returned the way they came and took the more familiar roads. They had sufficient supplies on the mountain and left the mine in two days.
As for whether or not to blow up the mine? Lord Zeng's idea was to use it to trick the Japanese.
At this moment, the mine was like a building block that lacked a key support point. There was a risk of collapse at any time. Moreover, this operation was not deliberately hidden.
As long as he put his heart into it, he would definitely be able to find some clues. Lord Zeng would also send people to keep an eye on this place. If there was a chance, he would take it all out.
Lord Zeng kept his promise. After returning to Sand City, he invited the brothers who participated in the mining to a banquet and began a new round of planning.
As for what it was exactly, how many people would die, and whether or not the Nine Gates would participate, all of this had nothing to do with Zhou Tong.
After this short gathering, Zhou Tong began to investigate Lord Zeng's background.
Zhou Tong had discovered many problems in the dead man's tomb. Since the tomb beneath the mine was related to the Zhang Clan, why was Lord Zeng completely unaware of the situation in the tomb?
There were too many mysteries that needed to be explored, and Zhou Tong also needed to digest the Meteorite Copper he had obtained from the tomb.
Meteorite copper was a kind of all-purpose tool refining material. Almost any magic tool could be adulterated with Meteorite copper. Zhou Tong was prepared to store all of the Meteorite copper he had obtained this time into his storage bag.
He would let it evolve completely and turn it into a small world. Then, he would go to the Empress Dowager's tomb and take away as many good things as possible to prevent any more trouble.
Just like that, a month passed. Nothing major happened in Sand City, but the situation in Huaxia was very tense.
......
I'm looking for a wave of flowers and evaluation tickets, three grams of oil.
