Chapter 329 Making Friends
Nie Haiyuan can be regarded as having found an opponent, the two of them blow each other and praise each other, and the others doze off until they listen, until the end, the two of them turned to the point.
"Brother Cai, you have so many industries in Yunze City, it can be regarded as a hand and eye, it's not my Uncle Nie complimenting you, Yunze City, you stomp on it and it will tremble!" After a while, Nie Haiyuan touched his temper, pulled it up, and even changed his name, as soon as he said this, the few people who were originally dozing off suddenly came to their senses.
"Little brother, you have lifted me, but you are not bragging, I Zhuge has only been in the rivers and lakes for so many years, what kind of wind and waves have not been seen, what kind of forces have not been contacted!" Zhuge was carried to the north, he was bearded, his eyebrows danced, as if he really believed Nie Haiyuan's compliments.
"Brother Cai is modest, that is, your brother and I know you better, and you are more warm-hearted, my brother's affairs have never been sloppy, I admire it very much!" Nie Haiyuan then patted.
"Where, where!" Zhuge waved his hand again and again.
"Brother has a question in his heart, how much does Brother know about the Scorpion King Valley?" Nie Haiyuan's words changed and pointed directly to the topic, which suddenly made Zhuge Cai's face change.
"Shhh
Seeing him so cowardly, Nie Haiyuan smiled dumbly, "Brother Cai, don't be afraid, there is nothing to be afraid of in the Scorpion King Valley, besides, I'm just inquiring, let's talk about it, it's okay!"
Nie Haiyuan was holding him and beating him at the same time, and it was also very useful to coax and lift, Zhuge stretched his neck and said, "I have nothing to fear, but the Scorpion King Valley is located in a remote area, and there are snakes, insects, rats and ants everywhere, and it is impossible for ordinary people to get close to it, let alone enter it." ”
Zhuge didn't know much, but it could be regarded as providing a little clue for everyone, but when he said this, it also made everyone feel a little puzzled, after all, outsiders can't get close to the Scorpion King Valley, and the poppy poisonous fruit is exclusive to the Scorpion King Valley, that is to say, the poppy poisonous fruit from the outside world is also shipped from there, such a large range of transportation, after all, a lot of manpower is used, and its value is so cheap, so how can it not make people wonder!
Thinking of his heart, Jing Chong, who had been silent for a long time, finally couldn't help but open his mouth and ask, "Then where did such a cheap poppy poisonous fruit come from?"
At the mention of this question, Zhuge Cai was a little indifferent, he stroked his beard, his little eyes were bright, and said, " Hahaha, poppy poisonous fruit is not a scarce thing, everyone knows that poisonous fruit is produced once a year, and it can be harvested in October every year, and the yield is particularly high, there are countless fruit trees in the Scorpion King Valley, and there is a phenomenon of many disasters, so every once in a while, the Scorpion King Valley will recruit some outsiders to clean the valley, they can not only harvest a lot of labor, but also take this poisonous fruit back and sell it to the pharmacy, after all, because there are too many points, so it is worthless!"
Zhuge Cai talked eloquently, and he couldn't stop it, "Generally, poppy poisonous fruits, which are prohibited by major tribes, are not allowed to appear in major medicine shops, but you should also know that the waters of Yunze originally belonged to the unmanaged area, where dragons and snakes are mixed, and there are all kinds of things, so the blatant selling poison is nothing." Poisons like this are generally circulated through the black market, and most of them are used by some unscrupulous alchemists to refine a poison called Poppy Masan, which is used to control people's hearts. ”
Obviously, Zhuge Cai still knows some insiders, he said it in detail and understands, so Jing Chong and the others also nodded their heads in understanding when they listened.
And as Zhuge Cai's topic became more and more in-depth, their conversation gradually entered the state, "Are you saying that the most poppy and hemp powder circulating in the market now are all made from poisonous fruits?"
Jing Chong asked this question in order to reduce the root cause of Nie Haiyuan's toxicity, and then more effectively avoid unnecessary detours.
"Of course, the poppy poisonous flower has a very short flowering period, and there are really not many people who want to use the poppy poisonous flower to refine poison, even the people in the Scorpion King Valley are not so luxurious, and the general poisonous flower will be picked by the people in the valley within three days of flowering, and then stored for emergencies, but that kind of flower is only stored for a few days at most, so it is very precious, and there is little circulation in the outside world, which is why the poppy poisonous fruit is more popular in some places. After all, those who are not right-minded use this poisonous fruit to control others, and if there is no antidote, will it not become the most vicious poison? In this sinister world, who wants their enemies to live well?"
These words really pointed out the direction for Jing Chong and the others, so in this way, the poison that Qiu Zhiyuan refined was also one of the six fruits? That is to say, they could be completely sure of their previous thoughts, and the target was the poppy poison flower, but there were also six kinds of poppy poison flowers, and if they couldn't find the right kind of flower, it would be useless.
It's just that with a direction, they also have the motivation to work hard, and at the same time, their journey into the Scorpion King Valley has become imperative.
"You just said that the Scorpion King Valley recruits outsiders into the valley every once in a while to clean up the poppy poisonous fruit?" Just when everyone was savoring Zhuge Cai's words, Lu Tianyun, who had been speechless, said a cold word, he mentioned it in a timely manner, and it quickly made Jing Chong understand his intentions, so he also looked at Zhuge Cai with inquiring eyes.
"Yes, there is still half a month to go to the flowering period, and the general poisonous fruits will be hung on the branches, waiting for the next year's flowering period to be picked before the flowering period comes, plus there will be many outsiders who make appointments to go to the Scorpion King Valley to ask for flowers every year, so cleaning the Scorpion King Valley has become a top priority. Of course, the process of seeking flowers is very difficult, and some thoughtful people will try their best to blend into the Scorpion King Valley, so the recruitment of cleaners will only last for two to three days, and the whole side started yesterday, and tomorrow should be the last day, and then the people in the Scorpion King Valley will go to check the foreign population!"
It was another important clue of information, and a look of excitement that could not be concealed appeared on the faces of several people, but under the deliberate cover-up, they all hid the past.
"Where will I recruit tomorrow?" Jing Chong couldn't help blurting out, but Zhuge Cai's face was full of doubts.
"Are you going to be servants to clean the Scorpion King Valley?" Zhuge Cai's mind was a little confused, and he didn't understand it for a while.
"Well, it's not exactly, in fact, you know the purpose of our group of people coming here this time!" Jing Chong felt that there was no need to hide anything from him, after all, when he was in the mirage, he could see the toxicity in Nie Haiyuan's body at a glance, everyone is a smart person, and it is useless to hide it.
"You want to mix in the Scorpion King Valley? You can't help it, you don't know how terrible the Scorpion King Valley is, and this kind of chaos will only cause unexpected danger!" Zhuge suddenly changed color, his hand swayed again and again, out of sincerity, he kept speaking to stop it.
To tell the truth, seeing Zhuge Cai's behavior like this, several people are still a little moved, although this businessman is mercenary and scheming, but I have to say that Zhuge Cai's nature is not bad, especially after he was extorted and lost 700,000 taels, he can still be treated like this, I have to say that he is quite decent.
However, the trip to the Scorpion King Valley was inevitable, so it was impossible for them to listen to Zhuge Cai's opinion, they had already decided that they would not be able to get the poppy poison flower, and they would never leave this place.
Since he couldn't shake their determination, Zhuge Cai simply chose to support, he had a helpless expression, and at the same time spread his hands, and said, "Well, since you insist on going your own way, I can't stop it, as the saying goes, good words, it's hard to persuade damned ghosts, if you are willing to send them to death, I will fulfill you, so let's do it! You will rest at my place for the night first, all the expenses are counted as my treat, and tomorrow around four watches, I will take you to register." It's just that if something happens, I'm not responsible!"
Zhuge Cai can be regarded as benevolent and righteous, as a "friend" who met in Pingshui, he can do this, and it is really enough.
Jing Chong arched his hand and looked at the other party very politely, "Boss Zhuge I really need to change your character greatly, the one million taels of silver I borrowed, and I will return it in time!"
Now, Jing Chong is really a little sorry, but they can't do without money when they go out, so it's just a matter of time!
Seeing Jing Chong's performance like this, Zhuge Cai was also rarely serious, he blushed, obviously a little righteous and sonorous, sonorous and powerful," Although I am just a businessman, I can also see the mind of the little brothers, who can stick a knife in the ribs for friends, and there are really not many people who take risks alone, I like to deal with such people, yes, I am mercenary on weekdays, but that is the character determined by the nature of my work, but I am also a person who likes to make friends, just a million taels of silver, for my Zhuge Cai is nothing at all, just take it and spend it first, not enough to open my mouth, I don't frown!"
They know that Zhuge is not perfunctory to them, some people, some hearts, can be explained by experience, just like a few of them, they were not friends at the beginning, but everyone was like-minded and had the same mind to come together, and they still have the ability to judge some sincerity and falsehood.
"Okay, Boss Zhuge this friend, we can be regarded as friends, from now on, if it is useful to my Jing Chong's place, even if it is only a finger's width of the note, I will go all out to repay the kindness!" Jing Chong was also enthusiastic, and unconsciously became a little closer to him.
The atmosphere in the living room is very good, and there is no tension at the beginning, which can be described as a happy lock, as soon as it is said, it will be opened. If you open your heart and face it honestly, you will definitely get mutual understanding and trust!
