An old man and a young man were sitting in the box. The old man had white hair and looked ordinary. He was the kind of person who would not be easily spotted in a crowd.
The young one is handsome and looks talented.
These two people are none other than the fifth elder of Shushan and Lu Qiu’s disciple Wu Tian!
At this time, Wu Tian was drinking wine, with a sad and complicated look on his face.
"Hey, Lao Li, why do you think my life is so miserable? I thought that becoming Lu Qiu's apprentice would allow me to have food and clothing for the rest of my life, but I didn't expect that Lu Qiu wouldn't even lend me a million taels!"
"I have been my teacher for so many years, but he is not as good to me as you are, Lao Li!"
"Lao Li, don't worry. I will definitely find a way to pay you back the five hundred thousand taels I owe you. I will pay you back as soon as I receive my salary!" Wu Tian looked at the old man in front of him.
The fifth elder had sneaked into Datang a month ago. In order not to be suspected by others, he deliberately disguised himself as an old man and changed his name to Lao Li.
Originally, the fifth elder planned to capture Lu Qiu alive, but what he didn't expect was that he accidentally met Wu Tian, who was not only Lu Qiu's apprentice, but also mastered the core technology of making weapons.
As a result, the fifth elder also set his sights on Wu Tian.
After getting along with each other for a month, the fifth elder discovered that Wu Tian was not only arrogant, but also addicted to gambling. He spent almost every month's salary in gambling houses, and now he owed a huge gambling debt. .
In the eyes of the Fifth Elder, this kind of person is very easy to be incited to rebel.
Thinking of this, the fifth elder smiled and said: "There's no rush, no rush."
After that, the fifth elder took out a silver note worth one hundred thousand taels from his arms and said, "Brother Wu, I still have one hundred thousand taels here. Although it's not much, you take the flowers first."
Seeing the banknote in the fifth elder's hand, Wu Tian's eyes suddenly lit up, and he smiled from ear to ear.
"Hey, you, Old Li, are so interesting!" "Brother, I won't be polite. I'll pay you back when I get my salary!" Wu Tian promised, patting his chest.
Hearing this, the fifth elder sneered inwardly, and a look of contempt flashed deep in his eyes.
return?
If he remembered correctly, Wu Tian's salary was not that much. It would take until the Year of the Monkey to repay the 600,000 taels to him based on his salary alone, and this does not include the gambling debts he owed outside!
The fifth elder picked up the wine glass on the table and took a sip, and said meaningfully: "However, I still have to remind Brother Wu that it is not an option for you to continue like this. You have used all your salary to pay back the money. What about your outside income?" What to do with gambling debts?”
The fifth elder believed that the time was almost up and it was time to rebel against Wu Tian!
"Hey, Lao Li, you are right. I have also decided to quit gambling. As for the gambling debt, I will pay it off slowly!"
Wu Tian took a sip of wine and said displeasedly: "It's not my master's fault. If he was willing to lend me one million, how could I have fallen into this situation? It's a shame that I have been working so hard for him!"
Wu Tianyue became more and more angry. He had repeatedly asked for a salary increase, but Lu Qiu always refused.
Therefore, there is also a gap between master and disciple.
Seeing this scene, the fifth elder showed a stern smile on his lips and said: "Brother Wu, since we have said this, I have a good way to change your predicament. Not only will you no longer be trapped, but you will also be able to Let you enjoy endless glory and wealth!"
"What can we do?" Wu Tian's eyes lit up.
The fifth elder said with a smile but not a smile: "Brother Wu, hasn't he already mastered the core technology of making weapons? Then why bother to succumb to Lu Qiu? Why not start a new mountain? As long as Brother Wu is willing to agree, I will leave this matter to me, Lao Li Come and arrange it!”
What!
Hearing this, the wine glass in Wu Tian's hand instantly fell to the ground, and he didn't understand what the fifth elder meant.
"Old Li, you..."
