Volume 1 Weakness is Sin Chapter 62 Naked Threat
The boss was an extremely elegant old man in his fifties, hunched over and old, but the shrewd look of the profiteer did not diminish in the slightest, and he did not look like a half-physically defective person at all.
Before the two of them spoke, Xiao Er had already made clear his intention to the shopkeeper, Miao Xianzong seemed to have some acquaintance with him, and said two words to cut to the topic: "Money shopkeeper, this little brother is a close friend of mine who came all the way from the capital, Jiang Chang'an, I heard that you are going to transfer this attic, and my little brother just wants to find a place to buy a family business." ”
"Ahem, since it is recommended by the shopkeeper Miao, the old man does not dare to slack off, as long as the price is fair, it is easy to say. The money shopkeeper coughed, his voice slightly hoarse.
Before Jiang Chang'an came, he had already changed into the newly bought black robe, with a tall figure that looked noble and mysterious, and he was playing with a night pearl in the Ruoruo Rou in his arms, with a smile on his face.
That night pearl is the top-grade jewel that Jiang Changan came out of the Hundred Treasure Mansion, which is half the size of a fist, but at the moment it is in the hands of the little girl, which makes people very worried that it will fall down the next moment.
The money shopkeeper has been in the business for many years, and he can be regarded as having seen all the cows, ghosts, snakes and gods, and he can be said to know countless people. But at the moment, he looked at the night pearl in the little girl's hand, and then saw that Jiang Changan still looked indifferent, and he chuckled in his heart for no reason, and a bad feeling came out of his heart, becoming stronger and stronger.
"Hehe, when the distinguished guest arrives at the door, Jiang Gongzi also asks forgiveness for not being able to greet the old man in person, since Jiang Chang'an is from the capital, then Ling Zun is?" The money shopkeeper narrowed his eyes slightly and said tentatively, to be able to call the eldest prince of the Bai family a brother, it must be a good background!
Jiang Changan couldn't see the other party's intentions, and said with a shallow smile: "My father is not a famous person, but he is running the family business handed down from his ancestors in a small place in the capital, but it is just a academy, he teaches some spiritual disciples casually, and he has nothing to do to pass on some spiritual skills, let them go out of the city to kill some demon beasts or something, and they can't go to the hall of elegance, don't mention it!"
Jiang Chang'an's words are half-true, the Jiang family has a cultivation academy, but only Jingzhou does not, or as early as Jiang Lingfeng's death, there is no longer any property of the Jiang family in the capital.
Since this money shopkeeper is stingy and mercenary, the store is in a hurry to make a move, since Miao Xianzong has helped him add this high background, he simply uses the stalk of opening a spiritual academy again, you must know that in Shenggu Shenzhou, it must not be easy to teach spiritual cultivators all over the world.
As the so-called open guns are easy to dodge, hidden arrows are difficult to prevent, regardless of officialdom or business, as long as the old rivers and lakes know, the most difficult thing to deal with is not the surface of the knife and gun is difficult to gnaw the guy, the most terrible is the surface of the smile full of one, in fact, there are thousands of hidden arrow poison needles in the heart, a little careless into a "no bones" defeated, living for more than 50 years, the money shopkeeper can still see this kind of simple truth.
The money shopkeeper was calm on the surface, but his heart was already surging, joking, his ancestors were in the capital, and the house was in the business of supporting spiritual cultivators for generations, how could he be a small person.
Looking at Jiang Chang'an's rapidly rotating demon yuan, the money shopkeeper's heart was even more worried: "When I look at Jiang Gongzi, I know that he is not an ordinary man, but recently many people have inquired about this price, and for the sake of Jiang Gongzi and Bai Gongzi being friends again, this inn will be sold to Gongzi for eight thousand eight hundred taels, what do you think of making up an auspicious number of sons?"
"Hmm......" Jiang Changan nodded indifferently, the smile on his face was even stronger, and he said in a strange tone: "This price is also worth it, just a few days later, my senior brothers and sisters will come to the Demon Descent Mountain Range to hunt high-level demon beasts, so I want to buy it quickly and rectify it, let them stay for a few days, and spend some days to open and earn some silver, hearing this good price, maybe, they will personally thank you!"
Jiang Changan deliberately bit the word "thanks" very clearly and ruthlessly.
The shopkeeper raised his eyebrows, and before he could speak, he saw Ruoruo looking at Jiang Changan curiously and asked, "Brother Hua, are you a threat?"
Behind him, Miao Xianzong was frightened by these two words, and coughed violently, all of them were old rivers and lakes, Jiang Changan couldn't hear such an obvious threat, but this little master actually said it openly like this, undoubtedly adding to the blockage of the son.
The money shopkeeper was also slightly stunned, thinking that he had heard it wrong, and it stands to reason which rich and noble son would like to leave such a troublesome person by his side.
There was a brief embarrassment in the room, and the air was eerily quiet.
Jiang Changan couldn't help but smile, gently pinched the little girl's nose, smiled slightly, and said dotingly: "You are smart, but if what you say is not all right, it is called a threat, and if you say it like my brother, you can't call it a threat." ”
"What's that called?"
"Barely intimidating. Jiang Changan said seriously.
"Oh-" Ruoruo nodded as if it was the case, but finally felt that it was too complicated and shook her head fiercely.
"Intimidate your mother!" the money shopkeeper was about to vomit blood, so he could only scold in his heart.
Threatened! Take off your pants and run on the street!
The degree of surprise in Miao Xianzong's heart was not weaker than that of the money shopkeeper, and he had never seen anyone doing this kind of business, which could be regarded as an eye-opener. The helper said: "Money shopkeeper, Jiang Gongzi's time is very precious, you can say a word if you can't do it, it's a big deal that we can't do this business, we are still friends, and the so-called business can't be benevolent, hehe." ”
When the money shopkeeper heard this, he thought that Jiang Changan was going to leave immediately, so he hurriedly smiled and said: "Childe, this price must be up for debate, isn't this transaction only sold because of the purchase, isn't the price just negotiated?
Jiang Changan's smile dissipated, and he shook his head and said: " Money shopkeeper, our family is a broken spiritual seminary, not a lot of money, in fact, I bought this pavilion mainly for the sake of your fellow doors, this is also the meaning of my old man, if it is, please also ask the money shopkeeper to take out more sincerity, of course, if this does not work, the money shopkeeper does not have to worry about anything, I will explain at home, but my mouth sometimes, it does not listen to me, it is normal to say more and say less, even if you don't think about yourself, you have to consider your son!. ”
The money shopkeeper suddenly found that his cheekiness was far less than that of the young man in front of him, he wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, what are you afraid of, what are you afraid of, if the other party has a very deep background, and the things committed by himself and his son add a little oil and vinegar to make some fuss, then the situation will be difficult to control.
The money shopkeeper shuddered, thought about it, gritted his teeth and said, "Then I will sell eight thousand taels to my son!"
"Okay, the money shopkeeper really understands people!"
Jiang Changan was secretly happy in his heart, and it was more than enough to use two thousand taels to hire a guy to renovate and rectify it. In Jiangzhou, it is not uncommon for people who are mercenary to bully the weak and afraid of the hard, and it is nothing more than coercion and temptation to deal with them.
And Miao Xianzong, who was sitting on the side, was almost stupid. I've seen bargaining, but I've never seen a bargain.
signed the contract, paid the money and got the house deed, and the rest was discussed by Miao Xianzong and Su Shangjun, with Su Shangjun's shrewdness, it must not be a problem, and Miao Xianzong will not be embarrassed to see his own face, the opening of the pill shop is just a matter of time.
Su Shangjun subconsciously held Jiang Chang'an's arm and trembled excitedly, which meant that from now on, the elixir refined by the Qinglian Sect could be sold by itself, and the two sides would trade directly, and the benefits would far exceed that of dozens of times before.
All day long, he kept saying that the Qinglian Sect was back to strong, but to put it bluntly, the source of strength is money, and now this fatal problem has been completely eradicated, so how can she not be excited!
Jiang Changan smiled and quipped: "I don't have these eight thousand taels of silver, Great Sect Master, it's up to you." ”
"No matter how poor my Qinglian Sect is, I can still pay out eight thousand taels. Su Shangjun was like a warm sun, and his heart was extremely moved.
After a few more words, Miao Xianzong and Su Shangjun went downstairs to discuss first, and Jiang Changan walked at the back.
was about to go downstairs, but he heard the money shopkeeper behind him suddenly shouting: "Jiang Gongzi!"
"Money shopkeeper, is there anything else?" Jiang Chang'an said suspiciously.
"Jiang Gongzi, I advise you, although this cheap tea is cheap, it is not necessarily safe to drink, you say, right?"
The money shopkeeper said with a smile, the frustration just now was gone, replaced by a kind of smile. It is like a needle hidden in the cotton, piercing the chest without defense.
At that moment, Jiang Changan seemed to have an illusion that the one standing in front of him was not a sad old man who wanted to sell a store to redeem his son, but a ruthless man who ate people and did not spit out bones.
Jiang Changan's face sank, and he suddenly smiled when he heard the serious expression of the money shopkeeper, and said, "Jiang Gongzi, the old man is just joking, you won't take it seriously, right?"
"No, it won't. Jiang Changan smiled and said: "I also told the shopkeeper that no matter how cheap the tea is, it is clean and safe, and it is not safe, and it is the hearts of the people." ”
The money shopkeeper stopped talking, with a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth.
It was already dark, Jiang Changan did not rush back to the tavern, but walked to the still lively 10,000-person street with Ruoruo, who was confused.
After strolling around for a while, they came to the lake, where the occasional west wind rippled, and the torch in the distance was like a candle lit by a star, reflecting on the surface of the lake with a red glow.
"Brother Hua, why are you frowning?"
The little girl snuggled in Jiang Changan's arms. The delicate little face also became lost, and said, "Are we leaving again?"
Jiang Changan smiled: "Why do you say that?"
"The last time you left Cangzhou and came to Fangdao Mountain, you stood in front of a lake for a whole night. "Ruo Ruodao.
Jiang Changan laughed out loud, this little girl is like a pistachio, which can always bring him endless joy, and said, "Yes, Ruoruo is the smartest!"
Seeing Brother Hua's praise, Ruoruo giggled non-stop, but quickly became depressed, thought for a while, and asked, "Where are you going this time?"
"Where do you want to go?"
"Wherever my brother goes, Ruoruo will go. ”
Jiang Changan rarely called her a stupid girl, but Ruoruo was not happy at all, she knew that whenever he was inexplicably sad, he always stood in front of the mirror lake like this, and there was a faint sigh in the long night, as if there were thousands of sorrows and hatreds, if he didn't understand why he sighed, but he remembered that whenever this time, he would always step on his feet and look at the north, in those bright eyes, there were no tears and no smiles, and when he looked at the moon, there were only infinite waves.
