Ma Xiaoquan smiled slightly and looked at Li Yao with some amusement.
"Well, why did you marry Shui'er?" Ma Xiaoquan asked deliberately.
Li Yao blushed and said, "Yes! Miss Shui'er is very good at taking care of others and considerate. She is a good candidate for a wife."
"Oh, that's right. You've been talking for a long time because of these reasons. In this case, it won't work!"
"Why?"
Ma Xiaoquan blinked and said, "Because you don't like Shui'er. If I marry Shui'er to a man who doesn't like her, isn't that like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth?"
"Ah? Who said, who said I don't like Miss Shui'er?" Li Yao asked anxiously.
"Really, I like it so much. In this way, I'll call Shui'er and let's ask him face to face. What do you think?"
"Ah? No, no, no, this won't work!"
"Well, don't you like Shui'er? Why don't you dare to let her know?"
Li Yao waved his hand quickly: "No, that's not the case. What I mean is that I want you, the leader, to be the matchmaker!"
"That won't work. I haven't understood what you mean after you talked for a long time. How could I hand Shui'er over to you? Besides, you are so poor and have nothing. Shui'er is still a lady, so marrying
Why don’t you give me an advantage for nothing, no way!”
"Leader!" Li Yao was anxious, "I just said that I would go through fire and water for the leader, why not?"
"Oh, you just say it with your mouth. I believe you just because you say it?"
Li Yao was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and asked: "Leader, how can you trust me?"
Is it possible that Ma Xiaoquan said: "Oh, this is hard to say. Okay, you go down first. I will tell you if anything happens."
Li Yao had no choice but to leave dejectedly.
Not long after Li Yao left, Ma Xiaoquan clapped his hands, and from behind the screen, Shui Ling'er walked out with a pretty face flushed.
Ma Xiaoquan smiled and asked: "Shui'er, did you hear it?"
"Yeah!" Shui Ling'er hummed softly.
Ma Xiaoquan could tell that Shui Ling'er also liked Li Yao, but he still pretended not to know and asked, "Well, what do you think? Is that guy Li Yao any good?"
"Master Li Yao, it's very good..." Shui Ling'er lowered her head and spoke the second half of the sentence in a low voice.
"Oh, that's quite good. Tsk, tsk, tsk, it seems like you are just ordinary friends. Okay, then I will refuse this marriage, lest that kid wants to eat swan meat."
"Ah? Captain, you, you want to reject him?"
"Yeah, your attitude is unclear. That guy doesn't have much money. He only has martial arts. What's the use of him without money?"
"No money, no money..." Shui Ling'er seemed to be fighting in her heart. After a while, she raised her head and said, "Captain, is money so important?"
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled: "As long as money can solve the problem, it is not a problem. Shui'er, you have been here too. Let me ask you, do you think money is important?"
"this......"
"Well, if you follow Li Yao and your life becomes bad, how can I be worthy of Deputy Qinghan?"
"Deputy Qinghan?"
"Yes, I think when Qinghan was still there, you asked me to take good care of you. For my Ma Xiaoquan and my Ma family, you did not hesitate to leave the family, and some even fell out with the family, so you are all my sisters.
I treat you like sisters, tell me, which brother is willing to marry his sister to a poor boy?"
"But Captain... Li Yao... Li Yao..."
"Okay, don't say it anymore. I understand what Li Yao thinks about you and what you think about Li Yao. But if Li Yao gets you so easily, he won't cherish you, Shui'er.
, you are an important member of my Victory Eleven, and I don’t want you to be distracted by things with Li Yao... As for Li Yao... if he is sincere to you, I will naturally
There is a way to test him, Shui'er, promise me, you have to wait, it's not the time for you and Li Yao to fall in love yet."
"Well, Captain, I listen to you."
"Okay!" Ma Xiaoquan stood up and patted Shui Ling'er's head, "Go down and rest."
"yes!"
...
After Shui Ling'er left, Ma Xiaoquan rubbed his temples tiredly. After closing his eyes for a while, he picked up the information page and read it again. He said to himself: "Today's paper trading income is very considerable, and the profit has already passed."
Thirty percent, but...there is still 30% of the cost that has not been recovered. Well, starting from tomorrow, many paper merchants must have turned around and compete with me, and the paper prices in the capital will also rise again.
Price tide..."
At this point, Ma Xiaoquan called Longyue in and ordered: "Before tomorrow's physical test, you go and sell all the paper in stock we have now. Well, the price of paper in the capital will definitely increase tomorrow.
, so we have to take action as soon as possible.”
"Captain, what is the appropriate number of shots?" Haoyue asked.
"As long as we sell it cheaper than those merchants, I calculated that even if we sell it at the cost price, we will make 50% profit in the end. Well, the paper business is over, I plan to cheat again
Bobie, hehe..."
"Ah? Captain, what's wrong with you?" Haoyue looked at Ma Xiaoquan in surprise, "Captain, why do you like making money so much? I really don't understand you?"
Ma Xiaoquan smiled bitterly and said: "Longyue, you are not a family member. You don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are. My Ma family, as well as the people of the Vulcan Sect who are coming, and we secretly consume it, all this is money.
Without money, it is difficult to move forward."
"Oh, okay then, Captain, what do you need me to do?"
Ma Xiaoquan grinned: "Tomorrow's physical test, you are like this..."
...
The next day.
The physical strength test of the Vulcan Cult members was chosen in an open space on the outskirts of the city.
This open space was won by Ma Xiaoquan from Li Zongyu before, and it was just used to test the physical strength of the Vulcan Cult members.
The content of the test is very simple. Ma Xiaoquan requires all church members who participate in the test to do 300 push-ups within the time of burning incense.
After receiving the assessment content, most of the congregants laughed and did three hundred push-ups? Isn't this very easy?
The congregants were gearing up and getting ready to start, when Ma Xiaoquan suddenly added another condition.
"Everyone should put a bowl of water on their backs and do push-ups. Anyone who spills half of the water should get out!"
After this order, the congregants were stunned. Doing three hundred push-ups within the time of burning incense is really not difficult for most people, but if you add a water bowl, it will be too difficult.
If you go too fast, water will spill out of the water bowl, but if you go too slowly, it is basically impossible to complete 300 push-ups within the time of burning an incense stick. What should I do?
