HRPM – Chapter 116 This year has been full of unexpected events (2)

“Wuuuu~~ Miss, in the end, those princes may drown in the lake~~ Let’s pack up and run now!”

“I’m going to kill you… You Shou, you brat! Are you trying to get your young mistress killed too?!”

Jin Luoluo grabbed his collar and shook him like a pendulum. “Run? Run where? You can’t run from the temple if you can’t run from the monk! Our whole family, dozens of people, are all here—how are we supposed to run?! I told you not to keep staring at the pretty girls below the stage! The mess you caused this time is huge. If those three turn into three dead fish, we’ll be carrying our heads to meet the Emperor!”

Shaken so badly he was dizzy, You Shou hurriedly interrupted his mistress’s outburst.

“Miss, now isn’t the time to complain. We should think of a way to fix this!”

“I’m furious! My lifetime of glorious reputation is ruined by your hands. Take people and follow that hot-air balloon immediately. I’ll go figure out a way to get a boat and catch those three.”

Jin Luoluo threw You Shou aside and acted at once. She ordered someone to bring her a horse, leapt onto it, and was just about to race toward the docks.

“Miss, last time you offended the Zhang family, the overlords of the docks. Why would they be willing to rent you a boat?”

“Money can make ghosts turn millstones. I’ll bury him in silver and see if he agrees or not.” Jin Luoluo snorted coldly, cracked the whip, and shot off like the wind.

Jin Luoluo had overlooked a classic saying: money is not万能.

Clearly, Zhang A-San was not someone money could move.

“Zhang A-San, rent your biggest boat to this young lady. One thousand taels, cash paid immediately!” Jin Luoluo stood on the dock and shouted at a fat man sunning himself lazily aboard one of the large boats.

Who would have thought that the pockmarked fat man didn’t even raise an eyebrow, and replied with a lecherous grin:

“Sure. As long as you give me that maid Green Sprout from your household to be my twelfth concubine, I won’t charge you a single coin. I’ll even give you the boat. Otherwise, don’t think of making a living on this lake again. Every time I see one of your boats, I’ll burn it. Anyone who dares offend me, Zhang A-San—the number one overlord of these waters—won’t die well.”

This damned old beast had developed lustful intentions the moment he saw Green Sprout at the Xiangluo’er shop, wanting to take her as a little wife.

Naturally, Jin Luoluo would never let her maid fall into the hands of this pockmarked fat man and suffer.
