Last Totem Novel - Chapter 171

Chapter 171 Old Friend
The merchant noticed the change in Tie Zha and immediately stopped. His right hand naturally reached behind his back.

“Jusang, if I want to kill you, you’re already dead.” Tie Zha grinned and said.

“Iron… Iron slag!” Cried the merchant in surprise. Tie Zha raised his big sunglasses and looked at Ju Sang. Then, he put down his sunglasses and covered his appearance.

At this time, the two women followed behind. Tie Zha’s expression changed and he said in a deep voice, “Hello, my name is Sa Jia Qi. I’m from the Dark Night Lighthouse.”

“Lord Sa Cha Cha, please take a look. The store has everything.” Giant Mulberry said very cooperatively.

The two girls came to Tie Zha’s side and looked at the rice in his hand, one on the left and one on the right. He then asked, “You guys go to the market and see the price. I’ll wait for you here.”

“Yes, boss.” ‘”Alright ~” His clear voice lingered in his ears. Seeing the beautiful figure gradually fading away, Tie Zha couldn’t help but smile. With their company, it was as if the entire world had changed colors, becoming less dangerous and filled with relaxation and pleasure.

When they were far away, Ju Sang leaned forward and said, “Brother Tie, you really are getting more and more promising.” He took a step back and looked up and down at the iron slag. He sighed, “It’s been a few years since I’ve seen you. You’ve become the eldest young master. Left and right, hugging each other. It’s not simple.”

“Not bad, right?” Tie Zha nodded and said with a smile. He was very happy to meet an old friend of Tieshan Town here.

Ju Sang grinned and said, “These two girls are indeed very beautiful. No matter where they are placed, they are all beautiful girls. But …” He changed the topic and continued, “Brother Tie, look, they are not as beautiful as the one I gave you before, right?” Afraid that Tie Zha might not remember, he added, “It’s that silver-haired, very white-skinned girl, remember?” Even after three years had passed, he still hadn’t forgotten to ask Tie Zha for credit.

“A gift?” Tie Zha put away his smile and asked with a stern face.

“Sold, half sold, half given.” Ju Sangzhen said with a face.

Tie Zha waved his hand and said not to mention the past anymore. She was now the Temple Princess and could destroy him with a single glance. Giant Thornton’s eyes widened and he was so shocked that he was speechless. After a while, Ju Sang came back to her senses and asked seriously, “Are you saying that the Temple Princess is her?” Before Tie Zha could reply, he muttered to himself, “No wonder he looked familiar when he read the newspaper last time …” At this point, he suddenly raised his head and looked around with a frightened expression, as if he was a frightened bird.

“What are you afraid of? She won’t come here.” Tie Zha reminded.

Giant Thornton heaved a sigh of relief. He picked up a rag and wiped the cold sweat off his forehead. He said, “I was scared to death …”

“Do you still remember? If I hadn’t stopped you back then, perhaps you would have slapped the Temple Princess.” Tie Zha said with a smile.

“Then I’m worth it. I’ll be worth it for the rest of my life.” Ju Sang said firmly. However, the fear on his face still hadn’t dissipated, and he had completely betrayed him. Next, Tie Zha asked him why he had come here to do business. Ju Sang sighed and said that a new sheriff had arrived in Tieshan Town since Big Sister left. Not long after the new sheriff arrived, he began to let the Black Tooth Society rogue gangs collect protection fees everywhere, causing a miasma in Iron Mountain Town.

At that time, he had some savings, most of which were exchanged for the “crystal test tube” given to him by Tie Zha. There were 120 gold coins, plus the savings he had accumulated over the years, he had gathered more than 200 gold coins. Seeing that the world was no longer good, he decided to set up a small shop and prepare to live in Sand City. After arriving at Sand City, he heard from his peers that the Central Continent earned money, so he brought his nephew over.

After two months on the boat, they finally landed on the land of the Central Continent. After some enquiries, it was easy to do business here in Dark Night Town, so they came over. He said he hadn’t expected that he would meet an old friend after running so far. He held Tie Zha’s hand and kept saying that he wanted to treat him to dinner and drink wine.

“The situation in the town is so bad, does Old Di care?” Tie Zha shook off Giant Mulberry’s hand and asked.

Giant Mulberry shook his head and said that he and the merchants on the street had looked for Old Di. That Old Di said that he had no way to deal with it. He had already grasped Tieshan Town’s garrison and wouldn’t let go. If he interfered with the sheriff’s actions, Sand City would definitely have a complaint. Right now, without the support of their garrison, the sheriff couldn’t make any major changes, so he could only rely on rogue gangs to collect some protection fees. If he wanted to interfere in this matter, it was hard to guarantee that Sand City would make any further moves. At this point, Ju Sang sighed deeply and said that everyone missed Tie Zha and Big Sister very much.

“Is that so?” Tie Zha grinned and asked.

“They all said that Little Black … no … when Brother Tie was around, those hooligans were like rats and cats when they saw Brother Tie. They were extremely honest. How could they be like now?”

“Really?” Iron Slag asked doubtfully.

“Really! Lying to you is a bastard, an asshole, a dog!” Ju Sang swore and sighed, “To be honest, when you were in town, everyone thought you were too ruthless. They were afraid of you when they saw you.”

“But when you leave, everyone will remember you. How about when Brother Tie is here?”

“Although you also bullied people, you obeyed the rules. You are as bold as Old Man Tie. You are much better than the law enforcers in other places.”

“Later, everyone erected a statue for Old Man Tie …”

“Wait.” Tie Zhan interrupted Ju Sang, “That’s not for me.”

Ju Sang smiled mischievously and said, “No matter what everyone’s starting point is, the most important thing is that it’s Old Man Tie’s statue, your adoptive father Tie Zha’s statue, and everyone paid to smelt it together, don’t you think?”

Tie Zha snorted coldly, but he didn’t say anything else. Then, Giant Mulberry asked him if he had been doing well lately and what he was busy with. Tie Zha scratched his hair and remembered his intention. He said that he was going to buy some food and hire some transport workers. Giant Mulberry asked him if he was going to do missions in the dark jungle like those student soldiers. Iron Slag nodded. Giant Mulberry revealed a happy expression. She said that from now on, the problem of supplies would be on him. It was guaranteed to be cheap and reliable.

Tie Zha thought for a while. In the past, although Giant Mulberry was not as reliable as Old Di and Old Niu, it was still reliable. At least, it was more reliable than Big Fatty Lu Shanhai.

“If it’s a penny more expensive than the market price, I’ll smash your shop.” Tie Zha threatened as always.

“This, this … How dare you? I, Ju Sang, am fooling no one. I don’t dare to fool Brother Tie.” Giant Mulberry said with a smile. After saying that, he invited Tie Zha to rest in the shop and chatted while drinking tea. After sitting down, Tie Zha looked at the porcelain tea set covered in tea stains and frowned, indicating that he would not drink tea and would talk about matters. Seeing this, Giant Mulberry hurriedly ran out to buy a brand-new tea set, boiled a pot of boiling water, and repeatedly scalded and washed it. Then, she asked her peers to buy some good black tea. After tossing and turning for a long time, he finally poured a cup of tea and placed it in front of the iron slag.

“Brother Tie, I know that you love cleanliness and never drink cups that others have drunk.” Ju Sang said flatteringly.

“Yes.” The iron slag replied, then picked up the teacup and took a sip.

At this time, Qin Ke’er and Mu Qian He walked around the market and returned to the grocery store. Ju Sang hurriedly greeted them and invited the two ladies into the shop. Qin Ke’er stood in front of the shop and looked at the dirty environment inside. She wrinkled her nose and said that she could just wait outside, so she didn’t have to go in to disturb her.

The iron slag put down the teacup and ordered in a low voice, “Come in.”

Ju Sang hurriedly advised, “Don’t … don’t … don’t … don’t … my place is dirty … really … Brother Tie … they are all golden branches and jade leaves, they are all big shots …” He didn’t dare to offend these two chicks. After all, they are both from Brother Tie. One day when the wind blew by the pillow, he was no longer a human being.

The iron slag drank tea without saying anything. Seeing this, Mu Qianhe gently pushed Qin Ke’er, pulled her into the shop, and sat beside the iron slag.

“His name is Ju Sang. He’s my friend in the Northern Wilderness. We’ll ask him to buy our supplies in the future. You guys should know him.” Tie Zha said expressionlessly.

“How much is it per kilogram of flour?” Qin Ke’er asked straightforwardly. Giant Mulberry immediately quoted a price. Qin Ke’er and Mu Qian He exchanged a glance and said, “The price is not bad. I hope the other materials are at the same price.”

As Ju Sang poured tea for the two girls, he guaranteed that he would supply them at the lowest market price. Then, he strongly recommended his nephew to Tie Zha, saying that his nephew was honest and reliable and could help transport supplies.

Giant Mulberry’s nephew was called Giant Ah Mu. In the past, he had helped Giant Mulberry in Tieshan Town. He was an honest young man who was several years older than Tie Zha. In the past, when he was in Tieshan Town, Giant Amu often helped Tie Zha run errands. Although he was a little silly, he was very serious. Tie Zha nodded and asked Giant Mulberry to call Giant Ah Mu over. Giant Mulberry said that Giant Ah Mu had gone to stock up and would not be able to return until the day after tomorrow.

Following that, the two of them chatted a few more times. During this time, Tie Zha discovered that neither Qin Ke’er nor Mu Qian He moved the teacup in front of them. Knowing that they thought this place was dirty, he stood up and bid farewell to Ju Sang to discuss the following matters at the night lighthouse tomorrow. Giant Mulberry said repeatedly, and then sent the iron slag and the two women out of the door.

“Be careful.” Before leaving, the iron slag threatened again.

“Yes, yes …” Ju Sang smiled as she nodded her head and bowed. After Tie Zha walked away, Ju Sang shook her head and walked into the shop. She cursed in her heart, “It’s been three years, and there hasn’t been any change. Can’t you be polite? Madman, the whole family is crazy …”

After leaving the market, Qin Ke’er suggested going to the bar to play, and Mu Qian He also agreed. Tie Zha, however, rejected the proposal on the grounds that he was “new here and unfamiliar with the situation.” It was simply asking for trouble to bring these two conspicuous chicks to a place where there were so many people.

‘”I want to go!” “I want to go! I want to go!” “Boss, please!” “Boss, please!” The two girls’ fathers pleaded angrily. They even tugged at his sleeves one on the left and the other on the right. They had the intention of not going to the bar.

“No.” Tie Zha remained unmoved and said with a dark face.

Mu Qianhe tempted, “Boss ~ We’ll get drunk together later, I’ll let you taste the Guanyin Sitting Lotus tonight …”

“You … can you speak?” Qin Ke’er cursed angrily.

“Oh ~ Ke’er, how did we get an old saying from the Far East” Mu Qianhe pushed Qin Ke’er over the iron slag and said, “I can’t bear to part with the child ~ I can’t put on the big tail wolf ~” As he spoke, Mu Qianhe’s chest pressed down on the iron slag’s shoulder, causing him to feel uncomfortable.

“Stop arguing, I’m so annoyed!” He shouted in a deep voice, but the effect was very poor …
