Chapter 785 Never Do Business at a Loss
The donkey put one of its front hoofs on the man’s belly and raised the other one high.
[Master, I didn’t embarrass you, did I? ]
It tilted its head to look at Gu Chan and asked confidently.
Gu Chan laughed and said, “It’s not bad, it’s just that the lesson wasn’t severe enough. It would be better if it was more severe.”
“Ah!” The donkey opened its mouth and howled.
The next second, it raised its front hoof and kicked the man hard in the crotch.
“what……”
The man instantly shrank to the ground, his face distorted, and screamed like a pig being slaughtered. At the same time, he covered his crotch with both hands, rolled around on the ground in pain, and wailed loudly.
The donkey shuddered and snorted, “I’m going to destroy your life today to teach you a lesson. Let’s see if you dare to insult women again in the future.”
“Okay, okay, you did a good job. I’ll give you a few more carrots for dinner.” Gu Chan clapped her hands and cheered.
The donkey ran to Gu Chan happily like a husky, and started jumping around her.
Luoda and his wife were stunned. After all these years, this was the first time they had seen such a smart donkey.
The man felt the pain for a while, then gradually recovered. He stood up from the ground while enduring the severe pain in his crotch. With trembling legs, he said, “You little bastard, I am from the famous Cang Ying Sect of Tian Cang Country. If you dare to touch me, you are dead.”
“What’s the Goshawk Faction? I’ve never heard of it.” Gu Chan said disdainfully.
“Don’t run if you have the guts. Wait for me.” the man roared.
After saying that, he limped away quickly like a loser dog.
Luo Da quickly grabbed Gu Chan’s hand and said, “Little brother, I am very grateful to you for standing up for my husband and me. Now it seems that I can’t keep you for dinner. You’d better take your donkey and run away!”
“Husband, let’s escape too! Then we will take a boat across the river with this little brother and live within the border of the Diyue Kingdom. Never come back again.” The woman said crying.
Luoda nodded quickly in agreement.
Then the couple prepared to run into the house to pack their luggage.
Gu Chan stopped them and said, “Brother Luo, this is your homeland. Why do you want to escape? Besides, Diyue Country and Tiancang Country are at odds with each other. As people of Tiancang, if you go to the border of Diyue Country, I’m afraid you won’t have a good life.”
“That’s better than staying here and being killed by the people from the Goshawk Sect!” Luoda said with a bitter face.
“Don’t worry, I’ll take care of this for you. Even if those bastards don’t come to cause trouble, I will go find them sooner or later, so just rest assured. Hurry up and ask my sister-in-law to light a fire and cook. I’ll fill my stomach first so I can deal with them.” Gu Chan said with a smile.
The couple looked at each other, both of them showing worry.
But on second thought, the donkey beside Gu Chan is so powerful that it can beat a level 5 physical expert and make him run away without any ability to defend himself. Then her strength as its master must be even stronger!
Thinking like this, the two began to waver in their thoughts of running away. Gu Chan said again, “Okay, just listen to me. I dare to say this, and I must have the confidence to say this. You don’t need to worry.”
After saying that, Gu Chan reached into her sleeve, took out a silver note worth one thousand taels, and stuffed it into Luo Da’s hand.
Luo Da’s eyes lit up immediately and he asked, “Little brother, what are you doing?”
“I have decided to stay at your house for three days. This money will be used as my food expenses for these three days.” Gu Chan said generously.
“This is too much!” Luoda said in surprise.
“Not much, not much. I come from a businessman background and I will never do business at a loss. Just keep it and be at ease.” Gu Chan waved her hand and said.
Luo Da looked at Gu Chan, then looked at the huge sum of money in his hand, and finally chose to trust Gu Chan.
After handing the banknote to his wife, he said, “Then trust me for once. Hurry up and put the banknote away. Then light a fire and cook a good meal. Serve me well.”
“Yes, husband.” The woman responded obediently, then she packed her clothes, quickly took the banknotes and went into the house to hide them, then came out to the stove to light a fire and cook.
Gu Chan led the donkey to the shed over there and tied it up, and asked Luo Da to get some hay and carrots to feed it.
After doing all this, the two sat down at the stone table in the yard, drinking tea and chatting.
After chatting for a while, Gu Chan asked, “By the way, Brother Luo, what is the origin of this Goshawk Sect?”
“This is the largest sect on our northern border. It is very famous in this border area. However, this sect has always bullied the weak and feared the strong. They even oppressed the people. The people hate them to the core.” Luoda said with a grim face.
“This shouldn’t be the case! The imperial court should be in charge of this heinous sect on the northern border!” Gu Chan said, spreading his hands.
“The imperial court won’t care! The leader of the Sky Eagle Sect is a disciple of the current national master, and the national master is a big shot in front of the crown prince. All officials of all ranks in the border area have to be courteous to him. Who dares to care about him?” Luoda explained.
Gu Chan nodded repeatedly after listening, and finally she understood the specific situation on this side of the border.
With a wicked smile on her lips, she muttered to herself, “No wonder the people from the Goshawk Sect are so active in killing Prince Chan. After all this time, they want to use this to show off in front of the Imperial Master so that they can please the Crown Prince!”
“Who said it wasn’t? If you ask me, I think Prince Chan in Kyoto is not a bad person. Everyone on our border has heard about it some time ago. Prince Chan did a lot of good deeds in Kyoto, was generous and kind to the common people, and even saved many officials in Kyoto, as well as the princes and princesses. He shouldn’t be treated so unfairly!” Luoda sighed.
Gu Chan shook her head and smiled bitterly, “Brother Luo! There is no such thing as justice in this world. If you live in this world and are not strong, you will only be bullied and humiliated.”
“My little brother is right. It seems that I can’t just focus on fishing in the future. I still have to learn some Kung Fu. Otherwise, I can’t even protect my wife. What kind of man am I?” Luoda said in a firm tone.
Gu Chan chuckled, immediately reached into the bag on her waist, took out a secret book of martial arts, and handed it to Luo Da.
Luo Da took the secret book of martial arts and looked at it carefully, and asked curiously, “Little brother, what kind of martial arts is this?”
“This is a technique I modified based on my own physical skills, called ‘Iron Shirt’. As long as you practice according to the method written above, you can obtain the Iron Shirt physical skill. This physical skill means that you don’t feel pain when others hit you, but when you hit others, they can’t stand it. I will practice well in the future, and when I come back one day, I will come to see how you are doing in practice.” Gu Chan said with a smile.
Luoda hurriedly stood up and bowed to her to thank her.
