Chapter 200 Who disturbed my sleep?

Chapter 200 Who disturbed me from sleeping?

The young master of the Zhao family is not good-looking. He is as weak as a medicine jar. His identity is a bit special. He is the son of the King of Hanyang. He is not Yang Shijiu's type. Her dream husband is a peerless hero who can lift the top and defeat thousands of troops. Obviously, he has nothing to do with the prince of Zhao.

Yang Shijiu knew very well that the prince of Zhao actually didn't like a carefree and unconventional female man like her. Who made her father, who gave birth to 19 daughters in a row, the largest grain merchant in Yizhou?

It was the first time that a man asked her out for a river boating trip. Even though Yang Shijiu looked down on the prince of Zhao, she still chatted with him happily.

The boat was not big, just a small sloop. There were four people on the boat. The rower was the slave of the prince of Zhao, and a cute yellow-haired girl was Yang Shijiu's personal maid.

The prince of Zhao was poetic and recited an exciting river boating poem. He said a lot in a gibberish, and Yang Shijiu didn't understand what these poems were about.

But she still clapped her hands against her will, praising the prince Zhao as a gentleman with literary talent and elegance.

The prince Zhao was very proud. He did not expect that the rouge horse in Hanyang City would be not only beautiful but also elegant in women's clothes. How could she be the vulgar woman that others said?

In order to win the woman's heart, he decided to recite two more good poems from the bottom of the box to show off.

Unexpectedly, just as the mood was brewing, the boat suddenly shook, and everyone exclaimed and almost capsized. However, Yang Shijiu, a woman, was quite calm. Seeing that the prince Zhao was so scared that he almost wet his pants, she despised him in her heart.

Looking back, she saw a huge tree floating down from the upstream, hitting the tail of the boat. Fortunately, this section of the river was wide and the water was not fast. If it was in the turbulent water of Sandao Gorge, the huge tree would rush down and smash the single-masted boat to pieces.

Yang Shijiu said, "It's okay, it's just a piece of driftwood floating down."

Prince Zhao was embarrassed. He did lose his composure just now, and he kept bowing his hands to apologize.

But soon, he said in surprise, "Hey, this piece of wood seems to be golden nanmu!"

Ordinary people would definitely not recognize golden nanmu, but Prince Zhao is the son of King Hanyang, a member of the royal family. The main beams of his house are made of golden nanmu, so he naturally recognized the origin of this driftwood.

Yang Shijiu was stunned. Recently, he had been listening to his father muttering about buying a golden nanmu for Jishi Temple as a main beam for the temple. Because of this, his father could hardly sleep at night, and his gums were swollen because of inflammation.

She said, "Prince Zhao, you are not mistaken, are you? This is golden nanmu?"

Prince Zhao nodded and said, "It is absolutely correct. I have read thousands of books, and the main hall of the mansion is made of golden nanmu as beams and pillars. It is correct. By the way, Sister Nineteen, I heard that your father has been looking for golden nanmu recently. It is really God's will!"

Yang Nineteen was overjoyed!

Just as he was about to salvage the nanmu in the water, a young man's head suddenly emerged from the water, and a stream of water spurted out of his mouth.

Yang Nineteen and others were startled, thinking it was a floating corpse, which is not uncommon in the Yangtze River.

"Who is it! Who hit my boat! Who disturbed my sleep!"

Ye Xiaochuan was very angry. He had been drifting in the Yangtze River for several days. He had no traffic accidents in the narrow waterway, but he was hit in the wide and gentle waterway. Just now, he was sleeping with his arms on the nanmu, and was hit by this collision and fell into the river. He drank several gulps of water unexpectedly.

Seeing that it was a living person, Yang Shijiu and others were relieved.

Yang Shijiu said, "Hey, kid, who are you? Why are you in the water? And sleeping in the water?"

Ye Xiaochuan said angrily, "I just like to sleep in the water, what's your business? You hit my wood just now, right? Pay me, no one can leave without paying me!"

Zhao Shizi stepped forward and said, "Bastard, you are unreasonable! It was you who hit our boat and almost capsized. We haven't settled the score with you yet, but you are the first to complain!"

Ye Xiaochuan was happy and said, "I have been sleeping on this wood since Xifeng City. I have traveled thousands of miles and there have been countless boats. How come I didn't hit other boats? But something happened when I got to this wide river! It's obviously because you coveted my nanmu! Fortunately, I am lucky, otherwise I would have sunk into the Yangtze River! Pay me a hundred or eighty taels of silver, and I will pretend that nothing happened. Otherwise, no wonder I have to teach you a lesson today!"

Zhao Shizi was furious and was about to continue talking, but was stopped by Yang Shijiu.

Yang Shijiu said, "I can give you the money. I'll give you 100 taels of silver, and you give me the nanmu."

Ye Xiaochuan laughed again, with a flowery smile, showing his teeth and eyes, and said, "Do you think I'm an idiot? 100 taels to buy my nanmu? You can't say that!"

Yang Shijiu said, "Then how much silver do you want?"

Ye Xiaochuan rolled his eyes and said, "10,000 taels, and this nanmu will belong to you."

Yang Shijiu was immediately angry. 10,000 taels of silver to buy a rotten wood? This is no longer a forced sale, this is robbery, open robbery.

She was raised as a boy by her family since she was a child. She practiced martial arts since she was a child. She was not bad at martial arts. Three or five men could not get close to her. In terms of character, she also developed a violent and bold temperament of men.

Originally, she thought that this boy was a child from a poor family, so he was willing to risk his life to transport wood in the Yangtze River at such a young age. Unexpectedly, this boy asked for a huge price, which made Yang Shijiu's eyebrows stand up instantly.

Prince Zhao wanted to flirt with Yang Shijiu. First, Yang Shijiu's appearance was outstanding, regardless of his personality. He was also one of the most famous people in Hanyang City. Second, he was attracted by the wealth of the Yang family.

Now he showed off his skills in front of Yang Shijiu and said, "Bastard, you really dare to make an offer. Do you know that nanmu is only for the royal family? Smuggling nanmu is a serious crime punishable by beheading. Leave the nanmu and spare your life. Otherwise, don't blame me for locking you up and taking you to the government office."

Ye Xiaochuan laughed and cursed, "Two crazy people."

It was estimated that this collision today was in vain and he would not get any compensation, so he lay on the nanmu with his arms and prepared to continue to flow downstream.

When Yang Shijiu saw Ye Xiaochuan was about to leave, he was very anxious. His father just needed a nanmu, and he couldn't let this kid slip away now.

Ye Xiaochuan just happened to slide slowly by the side of the boat, and Yang Shijiu didn't think much about it. He hurriedly asked Prince Zhao and the boat boss to tie the nanmu with a rope and fix it on the boat.

Ye Xiaochuan was really angry this time. He had always been the only one who took advantage of others. Except for Yun Qiyou, no one dared to take advantage of him.

Unexpectedly, he was in a desperate situation today. This ten-year-old girl dared to snatch his golden nanmu openly. This was his life and property.

Yang Shijiu didn't see the anger in Ye Xiaochuan's eyes, and said, "Boy, get on the boat, let's talk about the price of this nanmu. Don't worry, I, Yang Shijiu, won't let you suffer a loss. I won't give you a penny less than the amount of silver you deserve."
