Chapter 401: But I Insulted the Dog (1/5)
"I heard you clearly, and I understand your point clearly! I'll put it even more bluntly: no chance!" Scott said even more forcefully: "If you keep holding my goods, I'll file a lawsuit directly with your general!"
Xing couldn't help but sigh, "I seem to hear a dog barking."
"'Asshole! Who are you calling a dog?!'" Scott thought back to his past experiences, his defense instantly breaking, and he turned around and started cursing."
"I'm talking about you. Didn't you bark like a dog last time?"
Liu Che laughed out loud.
This Scott is even funnier than the palace maids and eunuchs who are best at pleasing him!
Apart from anything else, just seeing Scott as a "dog" makes me want to laugh.

"And upon seeing Xing, he immediately gnashed his teeth and said, "Why... it's you again?! You're staying on this immortal ship and won't leave, right? It really is a double whammy. Nothing good can come of running into you!"
"Xiusui, a staff member of the Immortal Boat, turned around and saw everyone, and asked in surprise, "Isn't this a guest from the Starry Sky Train? Why is he here at the Industrial Manufacturing Division with Yanqing?"
"Accompany Yanqing to solve the company's problems." Xing said.
"The company's trouble?" Scott chuckled coldly. "It's clearly Tianbosi who caused us this trouble!"
"Yan Qing asked: "Sister Xi Kui, what is the situation right now?"
"Yukui explained it briefly."
"Basically, the Zhu Ming envoy ship rescued the company's transport ship, and then had the Cloud Cavalry bring it back to port for repair and inspection."
"And this is Mr. Scott, the person in charge of the transport ship." Yukui sighed repeatedly as she introduced them.
"Communicating with this person is harder than communicating with a monkey."
"So you're Scott!" March Seven said in surprise. "I heard Xing mention you. Weren't you kicked out of Luofu? Why are you back?"
"Do you think I wanted to come back? I thought I could just dock for some repairs and leave this awful place. But as soon as I got in, a few Cloud Riders rushed in and stole all the cargo!" Scott was furious, as if Roof had done something truly infuriating."
"I've stressed this countless times. This is a safety check! Once we're sure there are no safety hazards, we'll return the items to you." Xi Kui didn't know what to say anymore: "Is your brain a decoration? Why can't you understand what I'm saying?"
"Oh, I see. What it means is that the people from the Immortal Boat rescued Scott and were kind enough to help them with the repairs. However, according to regulations, they have to check for safety hazards before repairing."
"Scott was rescued first, and then he came running over when he heard there was free repairs."
"But when I came over and found out they were going to conduct a safety check, I became unhappy again."
"To put it bluntly, isn't this just about taking all the benefits without wanting to give anything in return? Most importantly, the Human Immortal Boat saved their lives after all... and yet they have this attitude. They truly have no gratitude at all."
Confucius analyzed and shook his head.
How could Xing call such a person a "dog"?
Dogs are man's loyal friends! You're insulting dogs by making such a comparison!
…………
"Then why are you bringing the Engineering Department back? And you've got a craftsman with a shady look on his face. Isn't it obvious they're trying to steal the company's patented technology?" Scott said confidently, as if he'd already seen through Xianzhou's scheme.
"I'm speaking to this..." Kong Qing forced himself to suppress his anger and changed his tone, "A guest who has come from afar. First, the Tianbosi (Department of Shipping) found suspected dangerous weapons in your cargo, so they asked me to conduct a confirmation inspection. Second, what on earth did I do wrong?!"
"If you ask ten people to tell the difference, at least ten of them will say he's more handsome than you, Scott, right?!"
"I'm confused. Even if it's a dangerous weapon, what's your business? It's not being shipped to Luofu. Don't bother repairing it. We'll leave after we're done. We won't unload the cargo in Luofu!" Scott gritted his teeth and gave up the free labor for repairing the ship."
"But you'll have to stay in port for several days to repair the engine and set sail again. How could we allow uninspected dangerous goods to stay in Luofu Port for several days?" Xi Kui tried her best to suppress her anger.
"Who knows if you're here to sabotage me! This isn't the first time Scott's been up to something."
"I understand." Yan Qing nodded. "But, security inspections shouldn't require disassembling the cargo, right?"
"It wasn't necessary. We only did some further scanning," Kong Qing said solemnly. "But the scans revealed that the cargo box contained not only mechanical structures, but also some... features similar to biological tissue."
"Biological tissue? Is there something alive in this box?" Sanyueqi asked in amazement.
"A concrete conclusion will probably have to wait for the Danding Company's personnel to arrive." Kong Qing shook his head. "Regardless, according to regulations, we must unseal one of the items for further inspection, but this company representative repeatedly obstructed us, citing patent confidentiality as an excuse."
"The Alliance's regulations regarding biological products are very strict. Without further inspection, the Tianbo Division will not release them under any circumstances." Xi Kui said solemnly.
"At the very least, the biological tissue could be some company's experimental product. At the most... is it a creature of abundance?"
"Indeed, for a fairy ship, it's natural to be extremely cautious when a ship entering the port carries such dangerous goods. If your company doesn't accept it... then why don't you just drive your shabby ship away?"
"You've been saved by the Immortal Boat again, and you want to use its territory to repair your ship, and you don't even want to follow the rules of the Immortal Boat... You want to take advantage of everything?"
"The key is that you didn't even give me a dime! How dare you be so shameless!"
Sun Quan smiled.
This reminded him of Wu Ju.
He was Wu Ju, the prefect of Cangwu who had a good relationship with Liu Bei.
Wu Ju, with his own army, was unwilling to submit to either Liu Bei or Sun Quan, wavering between the two like a fence-sitter. He even considered using the power of both Sun and Liu to help him conquer Jiaozhou, so that he could become the local emperor of Jiaozhou...
Haha, you also have a big face.
In the end, of course, he was killed by Sun Quan!
Even the reason for Wu Ju's death was quite funny. He didn't want to break off relations with the Sun family, so he let Bu Zhi bring 400 people into Jiaozhou. Then he was invited to a banquet by Bu Zhi and chopped to death. Not even a single subordinate or soldier was willing to avenge him.
Wu Ju, who had 5,000 soldiers under his command, died quietly.
You want everything, you want to possess everything, but you don’t want to pay anything. The final outcome is often like this... you get nothing!
