Chapter 7 Encounters with the Dead
Just as Wei Ziqing was about to open his mouth, Jiang Chen waved his hand.
An invisible barrier enveloped the three people inside.
Time Realm!
He set the speed of the flow in the time realm to speed up by a hundred times, and Wei Ziqing looked out through the window. I was surprised to find that the outside world was still!
No, not still.
She looked closely and found that the cars and crowds outside were already moving, but their movements were too slow, giving people the illusion of stillness!
This, this is a supernatural force?
Wei Ziqing was horrified.
"Don't panic, I have no ill will towards you, I guess you need help, to help you. Jiang Chen's voice was very gentle.
"Who are you?" Wei Ziqing asked.
Jiang Chen replied, "You can call me a time merchant. ”
"Time Merchant?"
Wei Ziqing was stunned, what is that?
Jiang Chen continued: "That's right, Time Merchant. And, I can now provide what you need most. ”
"What is most needed?"
"That's right. ”
Jiang Chen's expression suddenly became unfathomable, and he said a word softly. But this sentence was tantamount to a thunderclap, which exploded in Wei Ziqing's ears.
"I can provide you with time! or rather, life. ”
Wei Ziqing's breathing suddenly became rapid, and he stared at Jiang Chen's delicate cheeks in surprise.
This strange and mysterious young man, he actually claims to be able to sell time?
If it weren't for the superpowers she had seen with her own eyes, Wei Ziqing would never have believed this fantasy.
However, she saw with her own eyes the "shrinking of the ground into inches" and saw the "time and space realm" with her own eyes
So, she took a deep breath and said, "Since you took the initiative to find it, it must be for my father, right? I don't know, what do we need to pay to allow you to extend my father's life?"
At this time, she had already used "you" to address Jiang Chen, and she was completely frightened by Jiang Chen's unpredictable ability.
"My price is to give Wei Dong one-fifth of the value created in a year as an honorarium in exchange for a year's life. Jiang Chen said lightly.
"A fifth?"
Wei Ziqing was stunned, she didn't expect Jiang Chen's appetite to be so big.
With Wei Donglai's net worth, one-fifth of the value he creates in a year is tens of millions!
"How much is the amount? Or does Miss Wei think that your father's life is not worth so much money?" Jiang Chen asked deliberately.
"Of course not!" Wei Ziqing immediately denied it, she gritted her teeth, "Okay, now that my dad is dying, I'll call the shots for him." As long as I can save my father's life, what is the value of tens of millions of assets?"
"Miss Wei's courage is a little bigger than I thought. Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows, he looked at Wei Donglai's data, and said with a smile: "I like to work with smart people." ”
Half an hour later.
Wei Ziqing said respectfully to Jiang Chen: "Mr. Jiang, I'll send you out." ”
Jiang Chen said lightly: "No need, you can't keep up with my speed." I will be back again in three days. ”
With that, his figure suddenly disappeared.
Shrink the ground into inches!
Even though Wei Ziqing had seen it once, he still couldn't control his surprise when he saw this scene again.
Looking at the empty hallway, her expression was complicated.
Just half an hour ago, she and Jiang Chen had already negotiated the details of the transaction.
Jiang Chen limits the lifespan of each transaction to one year, and different people need to pay different prices.
And before, Jiang Chen made an extremely exaggerated request: he asked the Wei family to take out one-fifth of the total value of the money created by the family in a year!
This is an extremely terrifying number, especially for a family like the Wei family with assets of nearly 100 million!
If someone else made this request to Wei Ziqing, Wei Ziqing would definitely let someone break his dog's leg and throw him out!
However, after Jiang Chen made this request, Wei Ziqing gritted his teeth and agreed.
is because Jiang Chen's magical skills are completely beyond the scope that ordinary people like Wei Ziqing can understand.
Tens of millions of dollars is indeed a lot, but for Wei Ziqing, it is still not as important as his father's life.
The money is gone, and you can make it again. If the person is gone, it is really gone.
Wei Ziqing really has no other way.
Moreover, in order to show his sincerity, Jiang Chen agreed to Wei Ziqing. Wait until Wei Ziqing witnesses and confirms that it is correct, and then collect his honorarium. Because, Jiang Chen was not afraid of the Wei family at all. Moreover, he didn't think that the Wei family had the courage to do so.
The first time I came, I didn't have my own goods ready.
Therefore, he made an agreement with Wei Ziqing to see her again within three days.
After leaving the Jade Dragon Villa, Jiang Chen began to wander aimlessly, looking for a target who was willing to sell his life.
The time passed quickly, and I was at four o'clock in the afternoon.
Jiang Chen came to a café and sat by the window, looking at the crowd outside the window.
In his previous life, although he had a successful career, he was busy. The "self" in this life is sent to the fence again, although he does not worry about eating and drinking, but the depression in his heart can be imagined.
So, it was the first time he had such a leisurely mood to sit down and drink coffee.
"Name: Liu Jianing"
"Age: 34"
"Remaining life: 42 years, 78 days, 14 hours, 56 minutes and 32 seconds"
...
"Name: Chen Qian"
"Age: 28"
"Remaining life: 54 years, 124 days, 16 hours, 41 minutes and 26 seconds"
Groups of data from pedestrians outside appeared in front of him, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and he had a feeling of overlooking all beings.
"Perhaps, I can call myself 'Death'?"
At this moment, he suddenly heard a woman's surprised voice.
"Jiang Chen?"
He looked back and saw a woman sitting in the corner looking at him with sunglasses.
She was wearing a pair of large toad glasses, which covered most of her small face, and she couldn't see her face clearly.
But Jiang Chen felt that the voice was somewhat familiar.
Looking at the data again, he was stunned.
At this time, the woman sat directly opposite Jiang Chen, took off her sunglasses, and looked surprised.
"It's really you, Brother Jiang Chen!"
Jiang Chen looked at the woman opposite, the woman opposite had chestnut curly hair, very delicate makeup, and eyelashes fluttering on her two big eyes.
Moreover, she is also dressed up stylishly.
"Lu Shanshan?"
"You just recognized me?" Lu Shanshan hugged Jiang Chen's arm affectionately, and a gust of fragrant wind followed.
"You... You've changed so much. ”
Jiang Chen still had a feeling of unreality, Lu Shanshan was Jiang Chen's high school tablemate.
When she was in high school, Lu Shanshan was a girl who was yellow because of malnutrition. Moreover, because of the poverty of his family, he has an extremely low self-esteem.
is usually taciturn, and some classmates often bully her when they see her weak.
Jiang Chen's situation in high school was not good, but he couldn't get used to the behavior of some classmates, so he helped Lu Shanshan a lot.
The two are dependent on each other, but after graduation, Lu Shanshan went to another place, and she gradually cut off contact with Jiang Chen.
I didn't expect to meet here again.
Jiang Chen continued to ask, "After graduation, I heard that you went abroad... Why are you here now?"
Lu Shanshan was very surprised and asked, "You don't know who I am?"
"Lu Shanshan. ”
"I mean something else, you don't know my identity?" Lu Shanshan asked.
"Something else?"
Jiang Chen shook his head, he really didn't know.
"Defeated to you. Lu Shanshan sighed and pouted very cutely, "Don't you pay attention to the news? You don't even know the singer Lu Shanshan?"
Jiang Chen: "......"
He quickly took out his phone and flipped through the information.
It was only after a while that he was sure of something. The beauty sitting in front of her is the rookie singer who is now in the spotlight, the best newcomer at the 59th Golden Melody Awards, the annual champion of the 8th "The Voice of China", and the rookie singer who sang the theme song for the movie "All the Way East" - Lu Shanshan!
Although she debuted not long ago, she has already harvested tens of millions of fans in China. And a national concert is underway, and now, it's just time to go to Jiangzhou.
It's just that Jiang Chen doesn't care about the entertainment industry at all, so he doesn't know about it.
Now, he could understand why Lu Shanshan was still wearing big sunglasses indoors, and it gave people a sneaky feeling.
Next, the two chatted about the situation of both sides over the years.
"Brother Jiang Chen, are you married?" Lu Shanshan keenly noticed the wedding ring on Jiang Chen's hand.
"Hmm. ”
This answer made Lu Shanshan's eyes dim for a moment, and she concealed it very well, not letting Jiang Chen find out.
Jiang Chen sighed with emotion, the yellow-haired girl in his original impression has now become a big beauty and a star.
Now, no one should dare to bully her.
The conversation between the two was mainly based on Lu Shanshan's words, and Jiang Chen was responsible for listening, only interjecting a few words occasionally.
"Brother Jiang Chen, what is my sister-in-law doing?" Lu Shanshan asked casually.
"She... It's the boss of the company. Jiang Chen said lightly.
"The company should be big, right?" Lu Shanshan asked with wide eyes.
"Hmm...," Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows, "It's okay, it's a little famous locally." ”
OK.
Lu Shanshan breathed a sigh of relief.
A small local boss, he is a star!
"Then, my sister-in-law should be very beautiful, right?" Lu Shanshan asked again.
Jiang Chen was stunned, thought about it, and replied truthfully: "Beautiful, there are quite a lot of people chasing her." ”
"Oh. ”
Lu Shanshan felt a moment of loss, and continued to ask unwillingly: "Then, is she beautiful or am I beautiful?"
“......”
Jiang Chen was stunned again, he didn't expect Lu Shanshan to ask such a question. However, looking at Lu Shanshan's burning eyes, he coughed and said, "Of course you are more beautiful." ”
Hmph, Lin Jingqiu, dead eight women. With a straight face every day, no matter how beautiful it is, it's useless.
"Hehe, it's better to be Brother Jiang Chen!"
Lu Shanshan's eyes turned into a crescent moon with a smile, and her hands wrapped her arms around Jiang Chen's arm.
"Ahem, Shanshan. We're like this, won't it be too much..."Jiang Chen sensed that something was wrong.
"What's this, Brother Jiang Chen. When you were so protective of me in high school, did you forget that you said you treated me as a sister?" Lu Shanshan said confidently.
Jiang Chen thought about it, and then he was relieved.
He was older than Lu Shanshan, who was thin and small in high school. Therefore, Jiang Chen has always treated her as a sister.
When I think about it, there's nothing left.
