“Oh, you think I can’t afford these clothes?”
Su Fugui sneered in response to the shopkeeper’s mockery.
In his system space, he had a full thousand gold coins.
A single gold coin alone was equivalent to 100,000 dollars on Earth!
Enough to shock this clueless shopkeeper senseless!
With that thought, Su Fugui ignored the shopkeeper’s taunts and strode into the shop.
The first thing he did was casually grab the white gown displayed at the entrance.
He then used the gown to wipe his hands and face.
The pristine white gown was soon stained with dirt.
Su Fugui couldn’t help but inwardly complain about how long it had been since his predecessor had bathed.
The shopkeeper screamed as she saw the gown being ruined.
“Ahhh! What are you doing! That gown is made of rare silk! It’s worth nine hundred silver coins! Can you even afford it?”
“Hah, a mere nine hundred silver coins? Let me show you what real—”
Before Su Fugui could finish his sentence.
“Su Fugui??”
A beautiful young woman with a decent figure pointed at Su Fugui from inside the shop.
Her eyes first showed surprise, but then turned to disgust as she took in his appearance.
At that moment, a tall and handsome man approached and asked,
“Babe, do you know this beggar?”
“Of course, he’s that broke guy Su Fugui I told you about, the one from the caravan.”
The young woman chuckled.
“Oh, so it’s that toad who thought he could eat swan meat! Hahaha!”
The tall man immediately joined in the mockery.
Su Fugui looked over, feeling a surge of anger rise within him.
He naturally knew who this woman was.
Mu Li, his predecessor’s ex-girlfriend!
This story went back to his predecessor’s memories of heading to Chang’an.
At the time, Su Fugui’s predecessor had encountered a caravan heading to Chang’an.
The wilderness was fraught with danger, filled with all kinds of beasts.
To avoid being killed by the beasts, Su Fugui begged the caravan to take him to Chang’an.
But why would the caravan take on a burden for free?
In desperation, Su Fugui offered a rare jade bracelet to join the caravan.
And in the caravan, he met Mu Li.
Mu Li was the daughter of a merchant. Her family wasn’t wealthy, but they could afford to live stably in the outer ring of Chang’an.
Initially, Mu Li thought Su Fugui was rich since he could produce a rare jade bracelet, so she dated him for a while.
But later, Mu Li found out that the bracelet was something Su Fugui had been born with. He was actually penniless, owning nothing but the bracelet, which disgusted her.
Mu Li immediately broke up with Su Fugui and even insulted him.
Given his predecessor’s personality, Su Fugui swallowed his anger and didn’t bother Mu Li again.
Who would have thought they’d cross paths again now?
The moment Su Fugui saw Mu Li, an inexplicable rage surged within him.
He knew it was the lingering resentment from his predecessor’s death.
“Oh, who do we have here? It’s the gold-digger herself. You barely broke up with me before jumping into another man’s arms, tsk tsk.”
Su Fugui clicked his tongue and glanced at Mu Li’s stomach, shaking his head.
“Probably dirtier than me.”
“Su Fugui! Are you asking for trouble?”
Mu Li was instantly triggered by Su Fugui’s actions.
Though, to be fair, Su Fugui wasn’t entirely wrong.
Mu Li turned to the tall man beside her, clinging to his arm and whining,
“Baby, he’s bullying me~ boo hoo~”
“Don’t cry, sweetheart. I’ll get revenge for you!”
The tall man tenderly ruffled Mu Li’s hair and stepped forward to confront Su Fugui.
Mu Li immediately looked smug.
“Su Fugui, do you know who my boyfriend is? He’s Tang Mo, from the Tang Family!”
“As a family of Chang’an, their wealth is beyond what a pauper like you could ever imagine!”
Su Fugui chuckled and replied, “Oh, so it’s the Tang Clan. Does your family have anyone who knows that… uh, entanglement thing?”
Though Tang Mo didn’t understand what Su Fugui meant by “entanglement thing,” the mocking tone was clear.
He immediately looked down on Su Fugui and taunted,
“A beggar in Chang’an? Let me tell you, every piece of clothing here costs anywhere from tens to thousands of silver coins. Can you even afford it?”
“What if I can?”
“If you can, I’ll kneel and call you dad! But if you can’t, I’ll rip your filthy mouth apart and break both your arms!”
Tang Mo spoke with confidence, not taking Su Fugui seriously at all.
The terms of the bet were also heavily skewed in his favor.
This exchange successfully drew the attention of some passersby who came to watch the spectacle.
But Su Fugui just sneered.
With his thousand gold coins, buying clothes was nothing.
He could even buy the entire shop without breaking a sweat!
Unfair? Hilarious, he couldn’t possibly lose!
“Haha! So you think this rag is something precious?!”
Su Fugui said.
In the next moment, he grabbed a red cheongsam from the entrance and threw it on the ground, rubbing his dirty feet on it.
“Just wiping my feet.”
This scene left Tang Mo and Mu Li stunned.
The shopkeeper, who had been trying not to interrupt Tang Mo earlier, couldn’t hold back anymore.
“Ahhh! That’s the Phoenix Cheongsam! Handcrafted by a master, worth eighteen hundred silver coins! How dare you, you filthy beggar!”
The shopkeeper, her eyes red with rage, lunged at Su Fugui to tear him apart.
But in the next second.
Clink!
Su Fugui reached into his pocket and casually tossed eight gold coins onto the ground.
The golden coins rolled across the floor, making a crisp sound.
“Pick them up, mutt.”
Su Fugui coldly ordered the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper froze for a moment.
Then, instead of getting angry at the insult, she immediately dropped to the ground like a dog and started picking up the coins.
After picking up one, she held it up and felt the pure spiritual energy flowing within.
“It’s real! These are real gold coins!!!”
The shopkeeper was utterly shocked!
This tiny thing in her hand was worth more than what an ordinary person could earn in a year!
And yet, this man had casually thrown out eight of them!
“Ha, haha, hahaha!”
The shopkeeper laughed maniacally as she crawled on the ground, meticulously searching for the coins.
Meanwhile, Tang Mo and Mu Li stood there, dumbfounded.
Wait, you’re actually rich?
Cheng's father told him he was getting remarried—to a wealthy woman. Cao Cheng realized his time had finally come: he was about to become a second-generation rich kid. Sure, it might be a watered-down version, but hey, at least he'd have status now, right? The wealthy woman also had four daughters!! Which meant, starting today, Cao Cheng gained four stunning older sisters?? But that wasn't even the whole story... "My name is Cao Cheng—'Cheng' as in 'honest, smooth-talking gentleman'!"
