"Only the seven brothers of Wushan can afford such favorable conditions."
"You won't lose out if you sell it to me, and I can make money too. It's the best of both worlds!"
Ai Ji was afraid that Chen Mu would speak, so he kept talking incoherently.
Chen Mu: “…”
There's something wrong with this situation.
"The price is negotiable, I guarantee you'll be satisfied!" Ai Ji still vowed.
Chen Mu glanced at the talkative Ai Ji, and then at Xu Rao who was extremely nervous.
The price...is it negotiable?
"Then... ten white jade coins?"
Ai Ji: “…”
Blackmail me?!
How dare you blackmail me?!
"it is good!"
Chen Mu: “…”
Is it the sense of the concentric rope synaesthesia connection?
It seems like they are afraid of seeing me doing evil...
Seeing that Ai Ji clearly looked like he was going to eat him, he had to grit his teeth and hand him ten white jade coins.
Chen Mu narrowed his eyes and raised the corners of his mouth.
Aho, it seems like I found a new source of income, haha...
……
For three consecutive days, Chen Mu used the Heart-to-Heart Rope to communicate with the Seven Brothers of Wushan whenever he had nothing to do.
It turned out that these guys were indeed doing evil.
Just like cheating people to grow crops.
This time they are trying to trick people into helping them fish.
There was military deterrence and a contract as proof, and it seemed that money was also spent to bribe the dock manager.
Moreover, they are targeting small people who work alone, catch small fish, have weak strength and have no backing.
For a while, he was doing very well.
As long as he connects with them, these guys will change their faces immediately. They can instantly change from being ferocious to being nice guys.
The expression is sincere, the words are earnest, and the voice is gentle.
If he hadn't met Ai Jixu Rao in person, he wouldn't have known what they were doing.
He would never be able to find out what's wrong just by using synesthesia!
Such a good actor?
Is the threshold for being a bad guy so high now?
"Talent!"

Chapter 250
"You guys don't have anything serious to do!" Chen Mu was speechless.
For five or six days in a row, he turned on his synesthesia whenever he had free time and enjoyed the performance of several people changing their faces at a rapid speed.
By the way, I ruined the signing of a contract by several people.
As a result, several people had to stop what they were doing and stay at home to practice martial arts.
"He's always messing around with this and that and cheating people."
"If we run into a lucky protagonist, won't it be over immediately?"
"It doesn't matter if you guys are done, but what if I'm involved?"
Seeing that several people were practicing martial arts at home honestly, Chen Mu nodded with satisfaction.
"It's so good to practice martial arts honestly."
"Well... we need to observe for a few more days."
"I can't let these guys cause me trouble."
Chen Mu turned off his synesthesia and slowly approached a bay in the fishbone boat.
After dropping anchor to the fishbone boat, Chen Mu observed the Five Ghosts Bag again.
"It's falsely labeled when it leaves the factory..." Chen Mu shook his head.
More than ten days passed. According to the price of fish at the dock, the fish eaten by Wuguidai must be worth at least fifty or sixty white jade coins.
But there is no sign of growth.
"There is still a long way to go." Chen Mu shrugged.
Isn't it just a matter of growing it slowly? At present, the Five Ghost Bags are enough, and there is no need to rush the growth.
Thinking of this, Chen Mu controlled the Five Ghost Bags to spread the drunken bait in the bay.
"Regardless of whether the Five Ghost Bag grows longer or not, we still have to keep catching fish."
Chen Mu took out a rocking chair, lit a tranquilizing pill, silently recited the Buxu technique, and slowly gained experience.
"It's comfortable to make money and practice martial arts at the same time."
……
Xinyou District, Lu Ku’s residence.
The six people gathered in the living room, without saying a word.
After a long while, Lu Ku looked up at the sky.
"Well, at this point in time, Gongsun Sheng is probably already busy."
Several people breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.
"Oh..." Ai Ji couldn't help but sigh.
"I'm under surveillance all day long, so I have to be careful about everything I do."
"When will this day end?"
"Don't be impatient." Lu comforted with a wry smile.
"There is a certain pattern to the timing of Gongsun Sheng's synaesthesia." Lu Ku narrowed his eyes.
"It's hard to say in the first few days, but in recent days, the pattern has become more and more obvious."
"He obviously has something to do that requires a large block of time. He might be practicing secret techniques, or making medicine and refining elixirs." Lu Ku seemed to be thinking about something.
"He would only check it out during transitions or breaks."
"This trend has become more and more obvious especially in the past few days when we are all staying at home."
Lu smiled bitterly and looked at the others: "As long as we observe for a few more days and master the rules, we can avoid his detection."
"We can even arrange our time for practicing secret techniques during the time period when he is likely to investigate, so as to give him the illusion that we are practicing peacefully all the time!"
"By the time……"
"Haha! By then he will be blind!" Ai Ji couldn't help laughing.
"Dancing with shackles?" Wu Ruo's mouth curled up slightly.
"Interesting." Xu Rao's face was full of gloomy smile.
"Do we still need to continue controlling the fishermen?" Yulin asked in a muffled voice.
"It still has to be done. But we can't do it." Lu Ku's eyes flashed.
"We can pick a few brave troublemakers from among the existing personnel and give them some benefits. They hang around the docks all year round and know who has the best fishing skills. With benefits, they will do better than us."
"As long as we take action at the right time to establish our authority, we can ensure that the plan goes smoothly."
"This way, we will have more time to practice."
Smiles immediately appeared on the five people's faces.
Just do what you are told, and you can even play a trick on Gongsun Sheng, haha...
……
Three days later, at the southern section of Tongtianfang Wharf, at a bay on the bank of Tongtian River.
Chen Mu was holding a black gourd in his hand, sitting in a rocking chair, rocking and muttering to himself.
From time to time, a little blue flame spurted out from the mouth of the black gourd, and the temperature of the surrounding area continued to rise.
This forced Chen Mu to place a soul-fixing stake beside him to keep the air in the cabin cool.
After a while, Chen Mu stopped chanting, took a sip of cold tea to moisten his throat, and looked up at the water not far away.
Large fish with black, white and colorful scales, more than half a meter long and whose names could not be told, were swaying underwater.
He walked around like a drunk, looking lazy.
Sometimes he would flutter around like a drunk, and then continue to sway left and right.
"It is worthy of being the exotic fish in Tongtian River."
"The improved drunk bait can't be completely knocked down."
In the past in Daliang, once the drunken bait was thrown, the surface of the water would quickly turn white.
It’s not like now, even if we attract the fish, we can only make it sway in a daze but can’t knock it down completely.
