Chapter 479
“Da da da!”
Xiao Chen and Dongfang Qingwu rode out of the trading market and galloped along the main road in the east of the city. The passersby on the road gave way to Xiao Chen, their eyes filled with fear. Xiao Chen ignored the gazes of the passersby and rode straight towards the city gate.
Suddenly, two riders appeared in front of him, slowly galloping towards Xiao Chen. Behind them was a luxurious and exquisite carriage pulled by two ferghana horses.
“Hmm?”
Xiao Chen was the first to notice the two Blood Bear Realm warriors charging towards him. He didn’t feel any hostility from them, but instead saw the friendly smiles on their faces. He pulled on his horse and curiously waited for them to arrive.
The newcomers were naturally the City Lord of Red Moon City, Fu Hongshan, and the commander of his guards. Fu Hongshan moved very quickly and finally arrived in time. When he saw Xiao Chen holding a woman in his arms and riding on an ordinary horse, he was surprised and delighted. He cupped his fists and said with a smile on his face, “Xiao Chen, you’re the Lord of Red Moon City, Fu Hongshan.
“Young Master Xiao, welcome!
This Fu is the City Lord of Red Moon City. I just learned of it from my subordinates and immediately rushed over to pay my respects to Young Master Xiao. This Fu did not go out to welcome you. I hope Young Master Xiao will forgive me! ”
“City Lord?”
Xiao Chen glanced coldly at the chubby Fu Hongshan. When he heard that Fu Hongshan was the City Lord of Hong Yue City, he guessed that Fu Hongshan was here to flatter him. He immediately lost interest and said indifferently, “City Lord, please make way. I still have to hurry.”
“Err …” Fu Hongshan did not expect that Xiao Chen would be so callous. He was shocked, and he was afraid that he would anger Xiao Chen by blocking the way. Hence, he gestured for the commander of the guards behind him to get off his horse and make way for them. Then, he said with great respect,
“Young Master Xiao, this Fu does not have any enmity. This Fu only heard that Young Master Xiao needs a carriage to hurry on with your journey. Thus, this Fu immediately sent over the carriage that this Fu hired someone to finish yesterday. I hope that Young Master Xiao will accept it. Furthermore, this Fu solemnly invites Young Master Xiao, Lord The Lion King, and this beautiful young lady to stay at the Cold Residence for a few days, allowing this Fu to do his part as a host. I wonder if Young Master Xiao has the time?”
Fu Hongshan was very smart. When he saw the yellow dog standing next to Xiao Chen’s horse, he immediately guessed that the yellow dog was Xiao Chen’s The Lion King. He was very nervous, so he spoke very carefully, for fear that he would be killed if he said anything wrong.
“Give me a carriage?”
Xiao Chen was slightly surprised. He didn’t expect the City Lord of Scarlet Moon City to be so quick-witted. He glanced at the exquisite carriage and the two Ferghana horses pulling it. His heart stirred and he said indifferently, “City Lord Fu, I don’t deserve a reward without doing anything. However, I do need a good carriage. I’m willing to pay a high price for your carriage. Are you willing to sell it?”
“Ah?”
When Fu Hongshan heard that Xiao Chen wanted to buy his carriage at a high price, he was slightly stunned. He quickly waved his hand and said sincerely, “Young Master Xiao, are you saying that you want to buy my carriage?
I can’t do that!
I can’t do that!
How would I dare to take your money!
A carriage isn’t worth much. Take it as a small gift from me to Young Master Xiao. ”
“Are you selling it or not?”
Xiao Chen didn’t have any patience. He knew that Fu Hongshan was only giving him a gift because he was afraid of him and Da Huang. Fu Hongshan wasn’t sincere at all. Therefore, he said coldly, “If you’re not selling it, please ask your coachman to make way!”
“This …”
When Fu Hongshan heard Xiao Chen’s cold words, he was instantly in a dilemma. If he didn’t sell it, he might offend Xiao Chen. If he sold it, he might offend Xiao Chen. When he saw that Xiao Chen didn’t look like he was joking, he finally gathered his courage and said, “Young Master Xiao, I’m willing to sell the carriage to you. As for the price, just give me ten taels of purple gold …”
“Ten taels?
These two Ferghana horses are worth more than ten taels of purple gold, right? ”
When Xiao Chen heard that Fu Hongshan offered such a low price, he couldn’t help but say indifferently. He didn’t want to be associated with any of the City Lords of the Moonview Tribe. Therefore, he offered a price himself. “I’ll give you two thousand taels of purple gold. Is that enough?”
“Too much!
Too much!
Even a thousand taels of purple gold is too much! “When Fu Hongshan heard that Xiao Chen offered such a high price, he quickly said that it was too much.
Swish!
Xiao Chen didn’t want to waste any more time. He took out a purple gold note worth ten thousand taels of silver, and with a flick of his finger, the purple gold note flew towards Fu Hong Shan, who was fifteen feet away. He said indifferently, “Cut the crap. Give me eight thousand taels of purple gold, I need to hurry!”
“Alright.”
Fu Hongshan reached out and caught the purple gold bill. He felt the impatience in Xiao Chen’s tone. Therefore, he nodded his head helplessly. He quickly took out a five thousand taels of purple gold and three thousand taels of purple gold. He didn’t dare to go near Xiao Chen. Therefore, he imitated Xiao Chen and threw the purple gold bills towards Xiao Chen.
“Thank you.”
Xiao Chen caught the purple gold bills easily and put them in his arms. He landed gently on the ground with Dongfang Qingwu in his arms. He thanked Fu Hongshan politely and walked towards his carriage. Da Huang glanced at Fu Hongshan and Dongfang Qingwu coldly and quickly followed Xiao Chen.
“Jia!”
After a while, Xiao Chen sat on the coachman’s seat and personally drove the carriage towards the city gate. Dongfang Qingwu sat on the fixed bench in the carriage. Da Huang really knew how to enjoy life. He didn’t sleep on the carpet in the carriage. Instead, he climbed onto one of the small beds in the carriage.
Fu Hongshan looked at the departing carriage. He held the ten thousand taels of purple gold bill that Xiao Chen gave. He felt like he was dreaming. He thought that Xiao Chen would at least rob a lot of people if he didn’t start a massacre in Red Moon City. However, the final result was out of his expectation. Not only did he not lose a tael of purple gold, he even made a small profit.
“Seems like my character is not bad. Haha!”
Fu Hongshan gave himself a good evaluation. Then, he proudly mounted his horse and returned to the City Lord’s Mansion to continue drinking tea and flirting with his beautiful wives.
…
“Clip-clop, clip-clop!”
The Ferghana Horses had great leg strength. Their usual speed was even faster than the sprinting speed of a White Tiger Realm martial artist. Under Xiao Chen’s control, the luxurious and exquisite carriage pulled by the two Ferghana Horses galloped on a relatively flat road. It was not a problem for them to travel 250 kilometers in a day.
The carriage’s cabin was very luxurious and exquisite. The carriage’s wheels and floor were made of alloy. It was very sturdy and durable. The top of the carriage was made of the best carpenters invited by the best quality wood. There were dragons and phoenixes carved on it. The floor of the carriage was covered with a soft beast fur carpet.
There was a door and two windows in the carriage. The door was hung with curtains, and the windows were hung with curtains. There was a chair for two people in the carriage and a small bed that could barely accommodate two people. Opposite the small bed was a fixed wooden table. There were all sorts of grooves on the table, which could be used to place some tea tables, books, etc.
What a luxurious and exquisite carriage with complete functions. The cost to make it was definitely not cheap. It would definitely cost several hundred purple gold. Only the rich could afford it. From this carriage, it could be seen that Fu Hongshan knew how to enjoy life. The City Lord’s Mansion was probably decorated very luxuriously and comfortably.
Dongfang Qingwu was very satisfied with this carriage. It could be said that she liked it very much. She touched it here and there like a little girl who had discovered a new toy. The smile on her face never disappeared. This carriage was simply a small home.
After Dongfang Qingwu was sold out by her family as a gift, she no longer had a home. Right now, this unique carriage gave her a feeling of home. She felt very comfortable and warm. All of this was given to her by Xiao Chen. Hence, she looked at Xiao Chen who was sitting in the driver’s seat. Her eyes were filled with gratitude and affection.
