108 Greedy
” nothing. you don’t have to worry about me. instead of worrying about me, you might as well improve your living environment. ”
alright, ” Jiang Li said indifferently. tell me, where will the trade be held? ”
city Lord Jiang, you really don’t know how to appreciate a good person’s heart. Oh, that’s not right, you don’t know how to appreciate a good half-monster’s heart. We, the half-monster Alliance, are sincerely trying to help you.
“why don’t city lord jiang consider it again?” hong luan said with a smile.
“Hehe.”
Jiang Li just smiled.
Sincere?
Jiang Li didn’t believe it at all.
if there were no benefits, who would be kind enough to help you?
Not to mention, it was a force and organization like the half-monster Alliance.
The bait of a trap often looked exceptionally attractive.
so,
Jiang Li would never agree.
he had his own plans.
“Alright, alright.”
Hong Ling shrugged. it seems that city Lord Jiang has no fate with our half-monster Alliance. The location of this transaction will be Qingshan Valley at midnight tomorrow.
“Farewell.”
As soon as he finished speaking.
Hong Luan’s figure leaped up with extreme agility. She jumped onto the roof and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye, leaving the city Lord’s mansion.
“Qingshan Valley,”
I can’t believe it. Jiang Li murmured, ” they set the trading location there.
Qingshan Valley.
After leaving the great Xia city, Hong Luan had directly come here.
my Lord, Jiang Li refused.
Hong Luan knelt on one knee, and in front of her stood a figure whose figure had blended into the darkness.
“Oh.”
the figure was surprised. “he rejected it? is he not afraid of death?” In such a situation, he still refused our recruitment. Does he have another way?”
“then, is the deal still going on?”
Hong Luan asked.
“why not?”
The figure that had blended into the darkness said slowly, ” for our plan, one more Jiang Li won’t make a difference.
the plan has already been set up perfectly. All that’s left is an opportunity.
winning Jiang Li over is just a chess piece that I’ve set up when I’m bored.
those ordinary herbs are useless to us, and if we want to carry out the plan we’ve made, we’ll need a lot of money to support it.
“Yes, your subordinate understands.”
Hong Ling nodded.
the great Qian dynasty has existed for hundreds of years. The fate of the country is about to end.
The figure slowly disappeared from the darkness.
The next day.
Xu Ya returned to the city safely.
A hundred transport trucks drove into the city.
The truck was filled with boxes.
“City Lord,”
xu ya met jiang li in the main hall.
“yes.”
thank you. Jiang Li smiled. thank you for your help.
“This is what your subordinate should do.”
Xu Ya immediately said.
“City Lord, please take a look at the transaction list.”
Xu Ya handed over the list.
“yes.”
Jiang Li asked Wang Gang to take it and read it. The more he read, the more happy Jiang Li was. The deal in Tianshui city was more perfect than he had imagined.
At the very least.
...
tianshui city didn’t lower or increase the price.
Jiang Li would pay whatever the original price was.
“this city lord of celestial water city is not bad.”
Jiang Li said.
Luo Tianshui, the castellan of Tianshui city, has a very high reputation in the Black Dragon County. Ever since she took charge of Tianshui city, the barbarians of the black snake barbarian kingdom couldn’t breathe under her pressure.
not only is his cultivation extremely high, ” Xu Ya said. he’s powerful and can use troops like a god.
“Oh.”
Oh? ” Jiang Li was interested.
“Xu Ya, you’ve done a great job this time.”
Soon after.
Jiang Li put down the list and said, “I can’t think of anything to reward you with. How about this? you can choose from the warehouse. There’s an internal force cultivation method, martial arts techniques, elixirs, and anything you like.
...
“Thank you, city Lord!”
Xu Ya said happily.
Such a reward was already very high, and Xu Ya was free to choose.
Of course.
jiang li didn’t care about those things.
On the other side.
it was different from xu ya completing the transaction in tianshui city.
hu dong, on the other hand, had been given a hard time in five lakes city. it was a completely different treatment.
The Chamber of Commerce in five lakes city seemed to have received the news from Pingding city in advance. They knew that Jiang Li needed ordinary herbs and even sold spirit herbs at a low price.
Plus ...
Luo Yanping, the city Lord of five lakes city, received an order from the Imperial court. He knew that Jiang Li was destined to be abandoned by the Imperial court. He didn’t care about a city Lord who was about to die.
The most important thing was ...
Hu Dong had brought too many things with him and they were all of high value. This caused Luo Yanping’s greed to rise. Although it was not good to Rob them openly, he allowed the Chamber of Commerce of five lakes city to raise the price.
one thousand taels. The price of a low-grade first-grade spirit herb is one thousand taels in five lakes city. It’s up to you whether you want to sell it or not.
“Yes, yes.”
“The price of a ten year old common medicinal herb is two hundred taels.”
“Are you buying or not? If you’re not buying, then hurry up and leave.”
“......”
hu dong had visited all the chambers of commerce in five lakes city, but the prices they offered were each more ruthless than the last. there was no room for negotiation, and this made hu dong’s face turn ashen.
“This is too much, this is simply too much.”
Hu Dong clenched his fists in anger.
One had to know.
an inferior-grade first-grade spirit herb was usually priced at ten thousand taels of silver. however, in five lakes city, the price was actually lowered to one thousand taels of silver.
There were also ordinary medicinal herbs.
It had doubled.
xx03, the intel mech that came with hu dong, immediately contacted xx01 and reported the situation to jiang li.
five lakes city is good.
Humph! Jiang Li snorted. tell Hu Dong to come back. One thousand taels for an inferior-class level one spiritual herb? how daring. He’s not afraid of choking to death.
“yes.”
xx03 nodded in response.
After that.
Xx03 conveyed Jiang Li’s order to Hu Dong.
At noon.
hu dong and the others left five lakes city. hundreds of trucks drove out.
“City Lord, Hu Dong and the others have left the city.”
Five lakes city Lord’s Manor.
A soldier came to report the situation.
“Oh.”
“how many spirit herbs and gold, silver, and jewelries did they sell?” luo yanping asked.
city Lord, when Hu Dong and the others first entered the city, those Chambers of Commerce did not understand the situation and bought some spirit herbs and jewelry at the normal price. After all the Chambers of Commerce raised the price, Hu Dong did not sell anything else.
The soldier replied.
that means that Hu Dong has left with those treasures? ”
what? “Luo Yanping’s eyes widened. damn it, I shouldn’t have lowered the price so much. I thought Jiang Li was in urgent need of ordinary herbs, but he’s not buying or selling.
“City Lord,”
At this moment.
luo yanping’s military advisor, wu di, walked over and thought of a vicious plan. he smiled and said,”have you forgotten? ever since the black dragon king died, the black dragon county has become more and more chaotic. there are always bandits blocking the road and robbing people.”
” it’s a long journey from five lakes city to great xia city. do you think hu dong and the others will be robbed by bandits? ”
“That makes sense!”
Luo Yanping’s eyes lit up. if Hu Dong is robbed by bandits, it naturally has nothing to do with our five lakes city.
“Yes, yes.”
Wu Di nodded repeatedly.
Immediately.
luo yanping sent out the five lakes city army and disguised themselves as mountain bandits. led by wu di and the deputy commander he liping, they attempted to stop hu dong and his group.
