CHAPTER 1122: 1200: UGLY IN A VERY UNIQUE WAY

Liang Yuening was about to refuse, but he accidentally caught sight of the wild man wearing beast skin in the portrait. His eyes flashed, then he said, "This portrait??"

Fengsu said, "A strange person."

"Interesting," Liang Yuening pulled over a cushion and plopped down across from Fengsu. He picked up the portrait, lifted it high, and examined it carefully. "This person is really ugly, but what a large frame, a bit stronger than me." Hmm, no doubt about it, it’s indeed his family’s silent and long-missing fourth brother.

Fengsu sipped some tea and smiled, "Dayuan’s aesthetics are indeed twisted. Someone like him is actually quite popular with the girls over in Dajin."

"Tsk," Liang Yuening clicked his tongue, "Why does this person look so odd? Is that a leopard skin he’s wearing?"

Fengsu glanced at him, "Ah Wu."

"Huh?"

"Are you...interested in this person?" Fengsu slightly narrowed his eyes, Liang Yuening nodded earnestly, "He’s so uniquely ugly, but look, he’s quite strong! Where is he? Let him come over quickly, the women under me keep staring blankly at me instead of working properly. I asked you before to help me find some strong men, but you kept delaying. Seems like there’s finally some progress!"

Fengsu was startled, thinking to himself that Ah Wu had misunderstood. "No, this isn’t someone I found for you."

Liang Yuening frowned, "This isn’t what we agreed on! I agreed to help you build this Tianfeng Tower because I knew you had a wide network and wanted you to help me find more strong men to help build houses. But look, the Sky Blue Building is already finished, yet you haven’t done what you promised. Feng, you’re not being fair!"

Fengsu spoke slowly, "Anyway, you didn’t lose out, I didn’t short you on silver."

"That’s different," he waved his hand irritably, "One thing is another. Plus, I’m not someone who lacks silver. I’ve earned quite a bit these past two years, the Money Shop is almost full."

Fengsu’s lips twitched, "Most Dayuan men are weak. It’s rare to find someone like you said, strong and muscular."

"I don’t care, you can’t break your promise. Since you agreed, you must do it!"

Fengsu: "..." Wisely changed the topic. "How about this, the person in the painting was spotted at Hanxue Pass. Conveniently, an old friend of mine is there too. You can help him restore his ancestral home, and maybe you’ll get lucky and encounter this person."

Liang Yuening immediately flared up, "Feng, do you think I’m stupid? Besides, according to my Yingying, that’s called changing the subject! You were supposed to help me find someone, so why are you telling me to try my luck instead? I find you really cunning; it’s like I’ve wasted this friendship!"

Fengsu: "..."

Liang Yuening unleashed a tirade against Fengsu, then cursed as he got up, "Heaven is blind, damn it, I’ve befriended a bad egg! But my Yingying is moving back north from the south, so I have to save some money, buy some gold and jewelry to bring back," he rubbed his chin, then decisively said, "I’ll take this job!"

He was referring to the task of helping to restore the ancestral home at Hanxue Pass.

Fengsu teased, "Aren’t you the one who doesn’t lack silver?"

Liang Yuening glared, "I’m not stupid, no one in the world thinks they have too much silver, only too little! My Yingying is a delicate person; everything she eats and uses has to be the best, I can’t let her suffer!"
