TSBFL Chapter 62
Chapter 62.2: 契约
[Contract]
When Chen Xing finished speaking, he saw that Gu Lang didn’t continue to ask questions, and even explained to him about the issuance of the contract, he secretly let out a sigh of relief and nodded, “I’ll figure it out by myself!”
Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing who had his head lowered as he pondered over the words he had just spoken, his eyes containing ‘couldn’t be understood’ emotions.
Just at the moment when Chen Xing uttered those words just now, looking extraordinarily flustered, Gu Lang suddenly remembered something, shortly after Chen Xing entered the door. He had asked Qiu Jiu and the others to go and investigate Chen Xing’s ins and outs (exact details) and the results of the investigation at that time; he still remembers to this day.
Born of lowly place, can be bullied by everyone, weak in nature and gloomy in character.
Thinking of this, Gu Lang then looked at Chen Xing in front of him who was careless (not oversensitive) about everything, whose heart was so big that it could ride a horse, and who started seriously calculating the possibility of signing a contract now after being diverted from the topic. How he was unable to connect him with the person in the investigation, after all, it was impossible for someone who had been bullied since childhood to be this cheerful and generous.
Chen Xing did not know what Gu Lang was contemplating, and after this mention from Gu Lang, he began to study how he should convince Qiu Shi and the others, and also how the signed contract should be written.
Gu Lang gently rubbed his fingers and pressed this matter into his heart. There is no need to be in a hurry, the days are still long, he will be able to figure it all out one day.
Chen Xing, having made a rough plan, called the two over with a serious face after the restaurant closed for business the next day, and sat himself down in front of them ‘as if holding a long machete and riding on a horse’, creating a feeling of three court trials (Yamen Court).
[大马金刀 literally means “as if holding a long machete and riding on a horse”.
It is used to describe a raw, exuberant and heroic manner of a character when showing up. Usually used when a character sits down / MC spots a character sitting / a character enters the room where MC is at , etc.. The opposite is elegant yet contrived politeness.
大马金刀 can also be used to describe one is leaving a straightforward and sharp comment.]
Qiu Shi and Qiu Wu looked at each other, and then looked at the small boss in front of them. Both saw incomprehension in each other’s eyes. In the end, it was the older Qiu Shi who opened his mouth and looked at Chen Xing and whispered, “I don’t know what the little boss is looking for us for?”
Chen Xing did not know what he was nervous about, he had been struggling with how to open his mouth. At this time when he heard Qiu Shi’s question, he first breathed a sigh of relief, and then embellished the matter of how he wanted to make wine, but he was also worried that they would reveal his formula, so he wanted to go to the Yamen to sign a contract with them. He then lifted up his head, with his eyes staring at them for a fleeting moment, waiting expectantly for the answer from them.
Qiu Shi and Qiu Wu looked at the expectant Chen Xing in front of them, their eyes quietly bypassing him to land on Gu Lang behind him, with a few hints of solicitation (for suggestions or opinions) in their eyes.
Wherever Chen Xing was, Gu Lang’s eyes would move along with his actions without him (self) even realizing it. There was no exception at this moment, as he was looking at Chen Xing with a gratified expression of a child who had grown up and could actually bargain with others.
However, very quickly, Gu Lang noticed the gaze of Qiu Shi and the two of them, and just the moment he looked up, his originally gentle gaze turned into a sharp one, looking fixedly towards them.
Being stared at by Gu Lang like this, Qiu Shi shivered hard, while at the same time secretly slandering in his heart, their master looked at this little Ger as if a spring breeze was stroking on his face, but when he looked at them as if a cold wind was piercing to their bones. They knew that they were not worthy, but this difference in treatment was also a little too frightening ah!
Chen Xing looked at their hesitation to speak and his face had a moment of discomfort, thinking that it was because they wanted to reject what he said but were too embarrassed to say it, so he generously said: ”What’s wrong? Actually, it doesn’t matter if you guys don’t agree, what I’m doing here is a legitimate business, I don’t like to force and monopolize the trade.”
The moment Chen Xing’s words had just fallen, Qiu Shi only felt ‘a few piercing to the bones’ in Gu Lang’s eyes as he looked at them, so he did not dare to delay any longer, he nodded his head as if he were pounding garlic and said, “Little boss took us in and gave us a job, equivalent to our regenerative parents (one’s second parent [said with gratitude of a person who has saved one’s life]). It’s not just a contract, even if it’s ‘scale a mountain of swords and plunge into a sea of flames’ (undergo the most severe trials), I, Qiu Shi, will listen to Little Boss.”
