Capítulo 957: Chapter 386: Gupiao Island (Part 3)
Since you don’t usually do this business, why suddenly start doing it?
That’s because recently this business is truly profitable.
Why is that?
It’s naturally because a once unchanging island suddenly experienced changes.
This led to Su Mo pulling him aside and probing the roots.
At that moment, as the couple exchanged glances, Yang Xiaoyun understood Su Mo’s intent, clearly gaining plenty of information.
She immediately nodded lightly: “Let’s go, enter the city.”
Xiao Ning was stunned, caught off guard and unsure.
Su Mo gave him a gentle kick:
“Lead the way ahead.”
Hearing this, Xiao Ning was overjoyed, realizing the business had been settled, and immediately rushed to lead the way.
Su Mo and Yang Xiaoyun exchanged a glance and smiled.
Yang Xiaoyun asked softly: “How are things?”
“Even more complex than imagined.”
Su Mo used the Sound Transmission Technique to relay everything to Yang Xiaoyun, and then looked at the sky and said:
“If we wait till Fog Day, we’ll be on the sea, facing each other. Isn’t it likely to be awkward?”
“At least there’s thin mist to hide the shame…”
Yang Xiaoyun laughed heartily, but then asked:
“But do you know when there will be fog?”
“We need to ask the expert on the island for that…”
Su Mo pointed with his chin at the front where Xiao Ning was.
Yang Xiaoyun pondered: “Surely he has more purposes than just this, right?”
“Yes.”
Su Mo nodded: “Take it slow, that’s enough talk for today.”
Xiao Ning was indeed guiding for the first time and was eager to say something impressive but found his mind empty when trying to speak.
He occasionally tried to make jokes to amuse the guests.
But his words came out dry and failed to achieve the intended effect.
Leading to the young lad smiling awkwardly in front, and feeling frustrated behind.
He looked at Su Mo with anxiety, worried he might persuade the guests not to pay him.
Once Xiao Ning led them to the inn, Su Mo said:
“Alright, we’ve had a long and tiring journey, let’s rest at the inn for now.
“Little brother, if you have no pressing matters, would you come again tomorrow?”
“Alright, alright.”
Xiao Ning nodded eagerly upon hearing this.
As long as they would need him tomorrow, he was happy.
He turned around joyfully and left.
Watching his figure depart, Su Mo signaled to Fu Han Yuan nearby.
Fu Han Yuan then turned and left through the back door of the inn, covertly following Xiao Ning.
The rest of the group took their rest, not mentioned again until Fu Han Yuan returned at night to report.
Nothing was amiss with Xiao Ning.
Indeed, he had lost both parents and had one younger sister at home.
The siblings lived on tight means, relying solely on Xiao Ning working outside to barely sustain themselves.
After leaving the inn, the boy went to another carpenter’s house in town to assist.
He worked until dusk, taking several coins for his wages and returned home.
Fu Han Yuan watched outside for two hours before coming back to report.
After listening, Su Mo nodded slightly, showing he was considering something.
Finally, he glanced at Fu Han Yuan:
“Tonight don’t stay at the inn, go to the ship, tell Little Situ to be vigilant tonight.
“Let White Tiger sleep on the deck.”
“Yes.”
Fu Han Yuan agreed and left.
After he left, Yang Xiaoyun whispered:
“Everyone sneaked onto the island, only we are so blatant. Are you worried someone might ‘tag’ along to the boat?”
Su Mo nodded:
“Our boat is indeed the best place under the candle where it’s dark, naturally, there must be precautions.
“Even if they want to get on the boat, at least we need to know who is coming aboard.”
“Yes.”
Yang Xiaoyun nodded slightly, observing the town which had already settled into silence outside the window, smiled:
“Sometimes staying in such a small town isn’t a bad choice.
“Quiet and peaceful, it naturally relaxes the mind.”
“If you like, once the chaos in Jianghu ends, shall we go live in the deep mountains away from the troubles?”
Su Mo said with a smile: “With the companionship of flowers, birds, and green hills, build a dwelling, stay away from worldly troubles, become an Immortal in the mountain.”
“Hahaha.”
Yang Xiaoyun laughed heartily: “I was just talking idly, it’s comfortable occasionally, but perpetually would be dull.
“You and I are destined to roll in the dust, let’s not think about the peaceful days hidden in the green hills.
“Moreover, Ziyang Escort Agency is growing stronger, recently Messenger Eagle sent word that the situation is increasingly stable, such a large business cannot be ignored.
“Furthermore… We have posterity to consider.
“We can retreat to the green hills, but can we let them be savages in the mountain?”
“That’s true…”
Su Mo smiled upon hearing this, pulled Yang Xiaoyun into his embrace.
Yang Xiaoyun blushed, murmuring: “Can’t be reckless…
“We are too conspicuous right now, who knows how many eyes are watching us in this night.”
“This I don’t fear, even if they pluck out their eyes, they can’t witness the fun of our chamber…”
Just as he spoke, a sudden scream pierced the dark and peaceful night.
The pair immediately stood, went to the window, opened it to look towards the direction of the sound.
Soon, lights began to ignite in the distance.
Ordinary people evidently heard the commotion too, waking startled from sleep.
Su Mo raised his brows:
“Someone lost patience and started acting?”
“Should we go check out the commotion?”
“Not watching the commotion at this time would truly be unreasonable.”
As Su Mo spoke, he looked outside the door:
“Here comes those joining the excitement.”
Next moment, the sound of knocking echoed.
Opening the door, it was Wei Ziyi, Little Situ, and others standing outside.
