Chapter 268: Lots of Money

“You’re not going to eat?”
Looking at the guy just having a cup of water, Urey put down his knife and fork and asked.
Urey’s bushy beard and the way he wolfed down the food deepened Luo Qiu’s disinterest to the food, which had a bad appearance.
Luo Qiu shook his head and pointed to his chin. Urey was stunned, reaching up and grabbed a noddle from his curly hair beard.
Urey ate that noddle directly—After that, he continued to binge on the food.
After Urey finished all of it, he gave a belch and felt satisfied. “Why did you help me? And even treated me a meal? Only because we met before? But I don’t have any impression of you at all.” Urey said.
Luo Qiu sipped water before saying, “That day, you said the artist loved the woman. Well… There isn’t any conclusion in the world about the woman in that picture, and I wonder why Mr. Urey judged it in an such an assertive tone?”
Urey was stupefied.
He had thought of many possibilities— It wasn’t just his mouth that was moving while binge eating. However, he had never thought it was because of such a requirement.
Urey wiped his mouth carelessly with one napkin and drank a little vodka. Then he leaned forwards on the table to reduce the distance between himself and Luo Qiu.
Urey stretched out two fingers to point his eyes, saying seriously, “If I say, that my eyes can see that, will you believe that?”
His wide brown eyes were seriously bloodshot.
“Why not?” Luo Qiu said carelessly, “If I believe, it means Mr. Urey is a painting connoisseur. And it’s happy to know a painting connoisseur. As for… ”
Luo Qiu shook his head, “… even if I’m cheated, there’s no loss to me.”
Urey opened his mouth slightly, and suddenly laughed—it was a funny and incredible laugh.
“Connoisseur, Connoisseur.” Urey repeated as if mocking it, “Yes, you’re right, I’m a connoisseur— but I’m an artist, rather than a connoisseur, haha!”
Luo Qiu drank another sip of water, “Does Mr. Urey have some works?”
Urey poured and drank the vodka lonely; one cup after another, until he was a little tipsy, while his eyes lowered slightly, “Works? Of course, lots of works… they’re inundate with the street… even the toilet paper…” He answered.
“Mr. Urey, do you know the phrase ‘put away the cup after taking a tiny sip’?” After saying that, Luo Qiu asked the waiter to give a cup of warm water to Urey.
But apparently, Urey was obviously more interested in the vodka, “Why won’t I drink if I can? After walking out of this restaurant, we won’t be friends any longer. You are just curious about what I’m like, so you treat me a meal here…You expect to know my story, don’t you?”
Luo Qiu replied, “To some extent I am…Well, I’m interested in this part recently.”
Urey sneered with disdain, looking Luo Qiu up and down, then glanced at the beautiful woman nearby, muttering, “Anyway, you rich guys prefer to sit at a warm place to listen to cold story, to feel the coldness near the fireplace, then you’ll have the chance to sigh with emotion and satisfy your occasional sympathy…”
“Mr. Urey, You need a rest. There should be some room upstairs.” Luo Qiu said without intention to explain.
Urey was totally drunk now. He held his head with his hand, looking at the waiter not far away, waving to him.
The waiter was puzzled, coming with a smile and asking politely, “Sir, what can I do for you?”
Urey suddenly said, “Can you dance? Get naked and dance here.”
It was embarrassing, but the waiter also politely said, “Maybe you are drunk, Sir. Anything I can do for you?”
Urey head wagged with smile, moving his eyes on Luo Qiu and snapped his fingers, asking, “How much money do you have now?”
Luo Qiu was really curious about the intention of the wanderer, so he gave a hinting look to the servant girl.
Ms. Maid took a stack of brand-new high denomination Ruble from her handbag and put it to the front of Urey.
Urey whistled, taking up the brick-thick money, and swept his fingers over it. After that, he held the table to stand up and stared at the waiter, “Take off you clothes and dance here, you can get all the money.”
Watching the stack of money he put in his hands, the waiter’s face suddenly tightened.
…
“Hahahahaha!!! Hahahahaha!! Haha… (Cough)…Haha…well, get out here!”
Urey laughed, one hand held the bottle, and the other screwed the cap, while looking at the waiter who picked up his clothes on the ground quickly.
He really got naked in the restaurant, only kept his socks, underpants and the bow tie. Afterwards, he hurried to grab his clothes, running away immediately.
Urey sat down again, “See? Being rich is so good. When you told me to stay in this hotel, the waiter looked down on me… But you see what he did? If you have money, whether it is mine or yours, it can make him get naked and dance.”
After a belch, he continued, “A common person won’t earn that stack of banknotes in a year. But you took them out without hesitation. You even had no reaction when I passed the money to the waiter. You may just be curious about what funny things would happen next. An item that could have people put down their dignity, is just a prop for watching a play.”
Boss Luo drank the third sip of water, “What does Mr. Urey want to say?”
“Since you are so fond of interesting things, why don’t you give me lots of money?”
“As you said, money doesn’t really mean anything to me.” Luo Qiu nodded and said, “So it’s appropriate to treat money as a tool… But I gave you the money because of my curiosity, and you showed me something interesting. But this was just a small case…”
Looking at Urey, Luo Qiu said coolly, “But what will you show me if I give you a huge amount of money?”
Urey laughed and said, “Yeah, What can I show you?”
Urey started to think in his head, and his head wagged again, “Well… Well! Huh? Oh… Let me think… Alright, you will see I enjoy my comfortable life without hardship, come in and go out deluxe places, beautiful girls around me, having the extravagant life that could only appear in everyman’s dreams.”
Belched again, Urey seemed to drift off, “Are those enough…”
“But I’m not interested in these.” Luo Qiu shook his head.
“Oh… Are you?” Urey said. He sat very indecently with his head backward and legs opened naturally.
“But you can buy lots of wealth from me.”
“Buy?” Urey was confused.
“Yes. For money, some people can take risks, engage in dangerous works and, unfortunately, be infected with diseases, even lose health or life…and some people can give up their dignity; others fall out of their relatives. Don’t you think they are making a killing while selling out some important things, even overdrawing their lives.”
Urey pointed at Luo Qiu, giggling, “You mean, I can sell these to you? That’s good… OK…”
Bang!
Before Urey finished his speaking, he fell to the dining table and snored loudly.
Maybe for Mr. Urey, all the words were silly words after being drunk, which would be forgotten when he got sober.
“Zzzz!”
