Chapter 769 - Two Roads (2/2)

Brother San asked Chu Lui and wanted to know what Chu Lui thought. Actually, he had the same mindset as Chu Lui. After learning about this—honestly, he could not quite believe it and thought that the news was fake and that there should be other routes. However—in the end, everything pointed to and proved that his thinking was correct, they were part of this wave of people. No matter where they went, it would have been hard for them to survive.

Chu Lui stood up, and the sea breeze blew in through his sleeves. The ocean surrounded them in all directions and had met with the horizon. They really did not have much time; after all, it had already been half a year.

“Brother San, let’s separate and investigate.” He sat up again and thought about this possibility. This was the only method he could think of.

To go and come back in between both places would take nearly four months. If they went at the same time, it would be good if they picked correctly. However, if they did not, they might have to collect their corpse and bring their ashes back.

“Let’s do that.” Actually, that was what Brother San was thinking. However, he turned around and asked Chu Lui. “Can you do it, businessman?”

“What do you think?” Chu Lui followed Brother San and picked up a branch from the floor. Piak! The branch broke from the middle into two. “I won’t come if I’m not fully prepared.”

“Fully prepared?” Brother San folded his arms. “So how did you prepare?”

He himself braved the wind and the storm and had experienced all kinds of scenarios. His status was exchanged from the scars on his body. There were human lives in his hands and they were not just a mere one or two; but this Chu Lui, what did he have? He was a businessman, and even though it was not like he was very weak, he should not sacrifice himself before he even saved the women.

“Mm.” Chu Lui raised his eyes. “I have money, quite a lot of them.”

“I know.” Brother San laughed. “Chu Lui, your company is not based on nothing. Even though I don’t know how much wealth you have, I did hear about your secret gold mine.”

To this, Chu Lui did not confirm or deny. Regarding rumors of the gold mine, he had never confirmed it or denied it. Actually, whether he had it or not, to Chu Lui; the money he had earned the past few years were much more than a bit or two.

“What about below?”

Brother San was waiting for Chu Lui’s next move; he would not think that money could solve all problems.

However, to Chu Lui, it was so. Even though he did not have as many connections as Brother San did in this aspect, he did buy two decent items. He placed his hand on his neck and pulled out a thin necklace. It did not look like much, and there was a small circular pendant on it, which no one would think was valuable. Even if they saw it, they might not even take another look at it.

His fingers caressed the pendant on the necklace before he reached into his pocket and threw another identical one towards Brother San. Brother San caught it and opened his palm. In his palm, it was not anything special; and even if one threw it out onto the streets, no one would be willing to pick it up.
