Chapter 485: The land of tigers and wolves(2/2)

The saucer took out the money from his pocket as he spoke.

As a result, he took out a bunch of things: handkerchiefs, keys, wooden tigers, small stones...

While taking out the saucer, he said sheepishly: "You nobles are laughing at me. I have more odds and ends here. I'll find the money right away."

The courtier next to him said: "You can go on your own. We will pay for the tea. There is no hindrance in buying you a cup of tea. You don't have to be polite."

I have to pay more for the saucer.

The courtiers grimaced and said, "If you continue to take money, you will look down on us."

Then he took the saucer back piece by piece, thanked the courtiers profusely, and left.

After the saucer left, the courtier ordered the waiter to close the door of the private room and retreat outside, so that he no longer had to wait around.

After the door was closed, Chunyu Yue took the lead in attacking.

He sighed heavily and said with great sadness: "This Yiqu City is simply a land of tigers and wolves. If you are not careful, you will be deceived."

Everyone nodded in deep agreement.

Even Li Shui nodded along.

Chun Yuyue saw that Li Shui still had the nerve to follow him and he was a little unhappy. He said to Li Shui: "Exiled Immortal, don't you think that the reason why there are so many evil people in Yiqu City has a lot to do with you?"

Li Shui bowed his hand to Ying Zheng and said with great sincerity: "Your Majesty, Dr. Chunyu slandered me."

Ying Zheng seemed to be thinking about something. He looked at Li Shui, then at Chun Yuyue, and said calmly: "Dr. Chunyu, if you have any doubts, it would be better to make it clear."

Chunyu Yue sighed and said to Ying Zheng: "Your Majesty, no one in the world knows that merchants value profits. And Master Fu Yao governs a county with merchants."

"In less than a year, the atmosphere in Beidi County has changed drastically. The people here are extremely cunning. They don't care about production, but only think about how to deceive people. This... this is really appalling."

Li Shui suddenly laughed.

Ying Zheng looked at Li Shui: "Why are you laughing?"

Li Shui said: "I am laughing at Dr. Chunyu. A leaf blocks his eyesight and he cannot see Mount Tai."

"If you take Dr. Chunyu to the prison for a while, Dr. Chunyu may feel that Beidi County is full of evil people who kill people and steal goods."

"You just invited the saucer here just to hear the stories about deceit and abduction. After listening to this, you don't really think that there are only bad people in Beidi County and there are no good people, right?"

Chunyu Yue said angrily: "However, there are too many bad people in Beidi County."

Li Shui sighed: "There are swindlers in Beidi County, and it is indeed related to supporting business. However... we can't ban merchants just because they bring swindlers. Isn't this because of choking?"

"There are good things in the way of a businessman, but there are also bad things. What we have to do is to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages."

Chunyu Yue stared and said, "Merchant can do a lot of harm but gain nothing."

Li Shui smiled: "Really?"

He suddenly opened the door and said to the outside: "Come in."

The guy who was kicked out just now was called in again.

Li Shui pointed at Chunyu Yue and said: "This lord knows some high-ranking people. He wants to write to your majesty to ban the merchants in Yiqu City to prevent scammers from running rampant. What do you think?"

The waiter stood there blankly for a while and then said: "I think it's inappropriate."

Chunyu Yue was stunned: "Are you willing to be deceived?"

The clerk thought for a while and said: "After the villain was deceived, he was naturally very angry. But... the liar came to deceive the villain because he had something to deceive."

"In the past, there were no swindlers in Yiqu City because everyone was poor. Even if the swindlers racked their brains, they could not get even half a tael of money."

"Therefore, the villain feels that although there are swindlers in the city, we can avoid them if we are more vigilant. Instead, we ban merchants... Maybe the swindlers will leave, but we will not have enough to eat."
