Chapter 359 The Bag Is Not Big

Xu Han, who was originally short of money, was still counting on Chu Chouli to help him. Hearing Chu Chouli's words, Xu Han's expression instantly changed and he unconsciously said, "Why is it gone?"

Chu Chouli's voice softened a little at that time, as if he had realized that he was in the wrong.

"That's 8,000 taels of silver. How did you spend it?" Xu Han obviously could not accept Chu Chouli's simple words.

According to the prices of Great Zhou, one tael of silver was worth 600 yuan, and only 200 yuan was enough to fill a table in a good hotel. Xu Han could not understand how Chu Chouli had squandered such a large sum of money in half a year.

Chu Chouli also sensed from Xu Han's gaze that this matter was not as easy to muddle through as he had imagined. He lowered his head and spat out two words in a muffled voice, "I lost."

'"Lost" Xu Han's brain immediately ached. "Aren't you known as the successor of the Thieving Sacred Sect? Didn't you say that this gambling technique is just a small trick to you? How can you lose?"

Chu Chouli's voice softened a little. "This … the world is unpredictable … Old Ma also has times when he stumbles …"

Xu Han was speechless.

Of course, if he didn't say anything, others would also be silent. For example, the attendant who was prepared to collect the room money immediately put away the smile on his face when he heard this. He said impatiently, "I said, do you have money or not? If you don't have money, scram quickly!"

Although Great Xia could be considered a peaceful and prosperous era now, even in the prosperous era of Changping, there were definitely some lazy men who were willing to be kidnapped. Obviously, the Xu Han and Chu Chouli in front of him were already such characters in the eyes of this clerk, so he naturally wouldn't be too polite to speak.

"Sigh, what did your little brother say? Does someone Chu look like that person who doesn't have money?" Hearing this, Chu Chouli said in a rather indignant tone.

"Alright, then you can give me the money." The waiter rolled his eyes at Chu Chouli and said this.

The penniless Chu Chouli immediately lost his temper and lowered his head.

"If you don't have money, hurry up and leave. Don't delay my business." Seeing this, the waiter became even more certain of his guess and pushed Chu Chouli and Xu Han to drive them out of the room.

Seeing that Xu Han and Chu Chouli were about to end up sleeping on the streets after being withdrawn from their rooms, an old hand suddenly stretched out.

"Is this money enough for the two of you?" A slightly aged voice sounded.

Xu Han was stunned for a moment. He followed the sound and saw an old man at the entrance of the inn looking at them with a smile. It was the old man who had just played a shadow play on the street. At this moment, he was handed out by this large wooden chest, and the one or two pieces of silver that Xu Han had just given him happened to be in his hand.

"Of course this is enough!" When the waiter saw the white silver, his eyebrows immediately lit up. He had just forgotten all about his unhappiness and nodded repeatedly in response.

"Come, come, come. Everyone, please come in." He hurriedly welcomed them into the room.

Right, little brother, I've already booked a room earlier today … The old man said at that time. It seemed that the wooden box on his back was too heavy. The old man's body was slightly bent, but the smile in his narrowed eyes made his heart warm.

"Yes, yes, I have already prepared it for you." The waiter hurriedly replied when he saw the old man's extravagance.

"Thank you, sir." Xu Han cupped his hands at the old man and said.

When the old man heard this, he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "This old man is just a foodie in Jianghu. I can't afford to be called Sir. Besides, this money was originally given by my little brother. It can also be considered a gift of flowers to Buddha. It's not worth thanking him."

After saying that, the old man looked at the waiter and said, "Then this old man went back to his room. Remember to supply the two brothers with the extra money."

After the old man finished speaking, he turned around, carried his large wooden chest on his back, and slowly walked up to the second floor of the inn. Seeing this, Xu Han intentionally sent them off, but the other party waved his hand and declined Xu Han's kindness.

…

About fifteen minutes later, Xu Han sat alone on the bed. Xuan'er lay leisurely on the side, curled up. Awoo had not recovered from the previous blow, but she still lowered her head with a depressed expression.

At this time, The door was pushed open, Chu Chouli walked in with a large bag of money and excitedly said to Xu Hanyan, "Xiao Han, this is change. He should have given me 530 yuan. That brat insisted that the quality of the silver is not good and he only wanted to find me 500 yuan. However, he is not his Grandfather Chu's opponent. I have been arguing with him for a long time, and not only did he change 30 yuan, he also found 20 yuan!"

After Chu Chouli finished speaking, he even handed over the money bag with a face full of credit. He said, "Count it, not a single penny is lacking. It's a total of five hundred and fifty pennies."

But how could Xu Han give him a good face?

He took the money bag, looked up at Chu Chouli, and then whispered, "Big Brother Chu is planning to let us rely on this 500 yuan to reach Yanzhou?"

"This" Chu Chouli's expression instantly turned extremely ugly. "How could this be"

Xu Han weighed the money bag in his hand, and his gaze towards Chu Chouli became teasing, "Then what is Big Brother Chu going to do?"

Chu Chouli asked tentatively, "How about I go smoothly …"

"Big Brother Chu, you are at least a descendant of the Thief Saint Sect. Why are you always thinking about these evil ways?" Xu Han said with a sad expression, as if he was extremely shameless towards Chu Chouli's actions.

This made Chu Chouli somewhat puzzled. Back in the Exquisite Pavilion, he had done this kind of deceitful business under Xu Han's encouragement. Why was the Heavenly Policy Manor's Manor Master brainwashed by those old fellows who were filled with benevolence, righteousness, and morality after a year?

"Then what do you say? You can't let me go shopping, can you? Although I did look so pretty when I was young, She had also been chased by some pretty girls, However, these years were like knives. Although his appearance was still there, his body was long gone, especially his waist. Chu Chouli opened his mouth again and began to chatter nonstop, "Xiao Han, this old brother has to tell you. This is the so-called kidney essence and blood essence. If he was too indulgent when he was young."

Just as he started his long discussion, he was interrupted by a large cloth bag thrown over by Xu Han.

"When I came, I saw a few houses in the west of the town. They were quite well-renovated. It must be a wealthy family …" Xu Han's voice sounded at that time as he said in a serious tone.

"Huh?" Chu Chouli did not come back to his senses for a moment, and his expression was somewhat blank.

At that time, Xu Han glared at him fiercely, "Keep your hands and feet clean…"

"Mm, the bag is not big. Remember to pick something valuable."
