Ma Jiamen: I was forced to fight for supremacy

Chapter 157 Night Tour of Daming Lake

Merchant, Duke of Ming.

As expected of a businessman, he gains the greatest benefit at the lowest cost.

This exchange of interests is much more clever than the Ma family's.

Ma Zhan accepted Zhu Zhongyan's gift, it was a foregone conclusion and there was no need to dwell on it any further.

He just didn't expect that his energy would be so great now.

Be more careful when dealing with these old perverts in the future.

Ma Zhan looked at Ma Zhongtong and asked curiously.

"Second Master, I thought you were indifferent to worldly matters and were obsessed with the martial arts world.

I didn't expect you to understand the intricacies of these forces and families."

Ma Zhongtong curled his lips and said disdainfully.

"Just because I don't like doing these things doesn't mean I don't understand them."

'You've got me again...'

As the sky gradually darkened, Ma Zhongtong went to the pleasure boat for a night cruise on Daming Lake as agreed.

Ma Zhan felt a little resistant to this Mingyue Gong, so he did not go with Ma Zhongtong.

Chun Xiaoman suggested that taking a boat tour on the lake would be a unique experience.

Ma Zhan and Meng Yao took the three beauties on an inconspicuous small boat.

The owners of the boat were a boatman and a girl of about sixteen or seventeen years old.

Ma Zhan originally thought that this was a father and daughter, but after Chun Xiaoman whispered in his ear, Ma Zhan realized that this was actually a small pleasure boat.

I saw it on TV, a boat sex scene... The place where you can have fun on a boat...

The young girl looked at the group of five people in confusion.

A young man and young lady, with three beautiful maids, came to play on the pleasure boat.

This is the first time I've seen such a scene.

The little girl looked at Sanmei with some fear, but more of inferiority.

These three sisters are so beautiful. Even the most popular courtesan in Daming Prefecture is not as beautiful as them.

If the three sisters had not been so respectful to the young master and the masked lady, I would have thought that the young master and the lady were their servants and maids...

The pleasure boat couldn't accommodate so many people, so Ma Zhan took Chun Xiaoman to the bow.

Only at night can you see the true scenery of Daming Lake.

The lake reflects the bright lights of the brothels, teahouses and taverns on the lakeside.

The lake is covered with the dim lights of large and small pleasure boats.

The huge cruise ship sails steadily on the lake, and the boatman uses superb skills to steer small pleasure boats of various shapes, moving nimbly across the lake.

Ma Zhan looked at Daming Lake illuminated by thousands of lights and couldn't help but sigh.

"It's worthy of being the Ming Dynasty's City That Never Sleeps."

Ma Zhan turned sideways to glance at Chun Xiaoman, who was half a body length behind him. The two looked at each other. Chun Xiaoman nodded slightly and smiled without saying a word.

When they were at the Daming Mansion, Ma Zhan and Sanmei had a brief exchange, and Chun Xiaoman was basically the spokesperson for Sanmei.

Ma Zhan wanted to take advantage of the night tour of Daming Lake to ask Sanmei some questions.

So he just took Chun Xiaoman to the bow of the ship.

"You come stand next to me. I want to talk to you but I have to turn around. It's troublesome."

Chun Xiaoman took half a step forward with a sweet smile, and Ma Zhan suddenly regretted it.

"You're a head taller than me. How embarrassing."

"My second master said that you were raised by the Zhu family and each of you possesses a unique martial arts skill. I would like to hear you talk about it in detail."

At least for a period of time, these three beauties will be by his side, and Ma Zhan needs to have a detailed understanding of them.

Chun Xiaoman smiled and told Ma Zhan everything she had experienced without reservation.

“I vaguely remember that when I was four years old, my father sold me to a pawnbroker.

A few days later, Nu and a dozen other children of similar age were sent to a large courtyard.

From that day on, we not only had enough food to eat and new clothes, but also had teachers to teach us how to read and write.

The teacher is very strict, but no one has any complaints against him.

Compared to starving or freezing to death in the wild, that yard is heaven.

More than a dozen children lived in that yard year after year, and then one of them was taken away every once in a while.

At that time, the slaves were afraid to sleep every night, fearing that they would be taken away the next day.

Finally, the day has come.

A very beautiful older sister chose me. She became my godmother, and then I went to a very beautiful place.

From that day on, the slave had more to learn.

As I grew older, under the guidance of my godmother, I learned about Huibo Tower, Daming Mansion, and Mingyuegong...

After hearing Chun Xiaoman's words, Ma Zhan's mood was indescribable.

Although he disagreed with the Zhu family's practice of treating people as commodities.

However, it is only difficult to accept psychologically for a while.

Domestic slaves are like the private property of the householder, and this is written into the laws of various countries.

In the hearts of Chun Xiaoman and the others, everything they have now was given by the Zhu family, and the only thing they paid was their freedom.

Ma Zhan no longer dwelled on this issue and asked.

"Do you know what the prohibition on your ivory cards means?"

"Ivory cards!"

Chun Xiaoman looked terrified and pleaded in a trembling voice.

"Please, Master, don't despise me. I am still a perfect virgin..."

"Just wait a moment."

Ma Zhan waved his hands helplessly, interrupting Chun Xiaoman's pleading.

"First of all, don't say 'slave' anymore, it sounds awkward.

Secondly, I don’t dislike you.

Also, don’t call me Master anymore. It makes me want to become a pervert.”

Chun Xiaoman nodded.

"Yes, sir, slave...I understand."

"Boom~~"

The boat suddenly jumped forward one meter. Ma Zhan reacted quickly, grabbed the mast with his left hand, and subconsciously supported Chun Xiaoman with his right hand.

Ma Zhan grabbed Chun Xiaoman's white wrist, turned around and saw Chun Xiaoman standing steadily at the bow of the boat.

"It's redundant, Chunchun is redundant. Chun Xiaoman's cultivation is probably much higher than mine."

Chun Xiaoman looked at Ma Zhan's embarrassed hands and turned around, saying with a smile.

"Thank you, sir~"

"fine..."

Chun Xiaoman has lived in one of the best brothels in Daming Prefecture since she was a child, and she knows all about men's thoughts.

She was sure that Ma Zhan had grabbed her wrist just now because he was worried about her safety.

Her heart inexplicably warmed up.

"Blind old man, you're looking for death..."

A man with a fierce face pointed at the old boatman and cursed, then threw a teapot at the boatman's head.

Ma Zhan saw the man throw the teapot without any mercy.

He has some skills, so if the teapot hits the boatman on the head, he will surely die.

"Clap~"

A long sword flew out from the cabin of the boat, smashed the teapot, and was then pulled back into the warehouse by a white sleeve.

The old boatman has been rowing on Daming Lake for his entire life, and he knows very well that these young masters and young ladies must not be offended.

In order to save his life, the boatman kowtowed and admitted his mistakes to the vicious man.

Ma Zhan glanced at the three-story large pleasure boat, and then looked at the boatman who was kneeling at the stern and kowtowing.

Others may not understand how the ship collided, but he knows it very clearly.

Although he still didn't know the reason why the large pleasure boat was trying to scam people, Ma Zhan was upset by the man's arrogance.

He shouted loudly: "Boatman, don't panic, turn the boat around."
