Chapter 57: The Cycle of Cause and Effect
I pricked up my ears and looked directly at Lin Yaocheng, waiting for him to speak.
It's just that he looked at the other soul hunters and said in a deep voice, "I have decided to hand over this commission to Master Su and Master Ning, you guys can go." ”
"Why ......" someone stood up and said unwillingly, but was stopped by the woman on the side shaking her head.
Lin Yaocheng is a well-known figure in Hong Kong, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he can cover the sky with one hand. Offending this big guy doesn't do them any good. Even if this cooperation fails, you should leave yourself a way back.
In the end, everyone could only get up and walk outside. When they passed by us, they undoubtedly glanced at Ning Kun and Su Mufeng. There is jealousy, unwillingness, and doubt in this look. Anyway, there is no blessing.
The butler walked out, and when he went out, he closed the door.
"Why us?"
Su Mufeng leaned back in his chair and opened his mouth in a lazy voice. It seemed that he was asking Lin Yaocheng, but with that calm and calm appearance, he seemed to have known that this would be the result.
"I don't want too many people to know about this. Now that you've all been to the third floor, it's fate to think about it. Lin Yaocheng chuckled, and his faint gaze swept towards Su Mufeng.
I have to say that this Lin Yaocheng is really too shrewd. He didn't see us, but he knew we went to the third floor. At this time, there was no point in denying it, Su Mufeng simply admitted it calmly. Immediately, looking at Lin Yaocheng, he said lightly: "Mingren doesn't say dark words, I went to the third floor last night to see it." However, it is precisely because of this view that I think that your commission is more than 50 million. You see, we also brought three assistants, so we can't even pay for our hard work. ”
Su Mufeng's words made the corners of my mouth twitch more.
Assistant? We just came to play along, when did we become assistants?
"You make an offer."
Lin Yaocheng is also a cheerful person, or rather, now he only leaves Su Mufeng and Ning Kun, and there is no other choice at all. Anyway, he has money, as long as the price is not too excessive, presumably he will not refuse. Su Mufeng saw this point, so he increased the price at this juncture.
Su Mufeng smiled and didn't speak, but instead set his eyes on Ning Kun.
It seems that he was going to let Ning Kun speak. After all, Ning Kun looked much more reliable than him.
"I know that Mr. Lin originally wanted to let our ten soul hunters take turns to protect you for a few nights, and you can distinguish between our abilities. Now that the money has been saved, you can simply give each of our three assistants 10 million. ”
10 million for one person, that is, a total of 80 million? This number must have been instructed by Su Mufeng to him before, otherwise how could Ning Kun say this number without thinking. No wonder when he first entered the castle, Ning Kun said that Su Mufeng was a money fan, and he was completely a lion's mouth.
It is estimated that he feels weak-hearted, or he feels ashamed to be in the same stream with Su Mufeng, Ning Kun lowered his head after speaking.
Three assistants are worth 30 million, and a fool will agree to their request.
But I didn't expect that Lin Yaocheng, who was rumored to be miraculous in the outside world, was this fool.
"Good. 80 million is 80 million, don't you like to send it the most? However, you must complete this commission, or you will not get a penny. ”
"Of course." Su Mufeng nodded with satisfaction, raised his hand to Lin Yaocheng and said, "Your son should be about to arrive home, if you want to say it, just say it quickly." ”
Lin Yaocheng was no longer ambiguous and explained the situation to us directly.
It turned out that the Lin family would become like this, all because he had been raising little ghosts for the development of his business.
This matter starts 20 years ago.
At that time, his business was in crisis and the company was on the verge of bankruptcy. Even the fortune teller is that he is a poor life, and even if he is lucky, he will soon become a failure.
When he was desperate, a Thai warlock found him and said that there was a way to help him, so he gave him a Buddha boy, saying that if he made a pious offering every day, he would be able to achieve his wishes and prosper financially.
At first, he didn't believe it, but he just held the idea of a dead horse as a live horse doctor, and hid from his family to burn incense for three meals a day, but he didn't expect that the business that had no chance of turning around actually recovered, not only that, but also made his business better and better, and in the end he actually became the richest man second to none.
He has no psychic skills, and he can't see the imp, but wherever he goes, he carries the real body of the imp who changed his fate.
It's just that he didn't expect that something like a little ghost would actually backfire. Once, he rushed to the United States temporarily because of an urgent matter and did not take it with him, and when he came back the next day, he found that all the plants and trees in his house had died overnight, and the company's stock price had fallen by 10 percent in one night.
He knew that he had angered the imp, and it took a lot of effort to find the warlock who had sold the imp to him before. The warlock told him that once the imp started to fight back, he would not help him again, but would take back everything he had given him little by little. He has already stepped onto the altar, how can he let himself fall? So, let the warlock kill the imp.
Since then, his so-called poor reputation has been revealed, and the projects invested by the company have failed nine times out of ten. In just one year, his business has declined dramatically, and many subsidiaries are facing closure. He also collapsed due to exhaustion, who knew that when he went to the hospital for examination, he was already in the advanced stage of liver cancer.
He didn't want to die, he wanted to make more money. At this time, he began to miss the benefits that the imp brought him.
He entrusted a lot of people, and finally found the best ghost keeper in Thailand. The man sold him the imp for 30 million. You know, the little ghost he bought before only cost 100,000 yuan.
"Thirty million? Lao Tzu has ever seen the most expensive imp at the auction, and it is only 10 million. This person is even more open-mouthed than Lao Tzu. Su Mufeng pursed his lips and sighed.
Lin Yaocheng smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "No, he is not a lion with a big mouth, it is this little ghost he gave, it is indeed worth the price." ”
"The more valuable the imp, the more powerful and, of course, the more vicious." Ning Kun frowned and opened his mouth leisurely.
"Yes. At that time, the ghost keeper told me that he, a little ghost, was originally a fierce demon, and he fed it with the soul of a living person for a month, and his ability was almost heavenly. Not only can I live a long life and stay young forever, but it can also make my net worth skyrocket, and it is not a dream to become the richest man in the world. It's just that the little ghost has a weird personality and needs a quiet place to be undisturbed. I already had a short time, and 30 million was nothing to me, so I didn't even think about it, so I bought this little ghost. ”
Lin Yaocheng's words made me shudder. Rich people really do everything for the sake of profit. It's just that he is already so rich, even if the business is not as good as before, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse. Knowing that raising a little ghost is a very dangerous thing, he is still willing to take risks again.
A little ghost who feeds a living soul for a month, Koji feels terrible even when he thinks about it.
Xu was aware of my gaze, and Lin Yaocheng smiled a little self-deprecatingly.
"Who is not afraid of death? Especially rich people, they don't want to go into the coffin so early. ”
Ning Kun and the others didn't speak, waiting for Lin Yaocheng to continue. Everyone knows that what he is going to say next is the point, and the little ghost before is just foreshadowing.
But I seem to have forgotten that all things in this world have gains and losses, causes and effects. At that time, the warlock told me that although this little ghost is a master of ability, his taste is a bit tricky, and I may not be willing to feed it. In two days, I asked people to simply renovate the negative three floors that had not been used, and built a small red house for it according to the requirements of the ghost keeper. After that, all kinds of delicacies from the mountains and seas were offered to it, who knows, he didn't even smell it. ”
"Obviously, what this little imp wants to eat is people." Su Mufeng sneered and gave a chilling but only reasonable explanation.
Lin Yaocheng's eyes sank, and he nodded and acknowledged.
"The first person it started was my eldest wife. On the first night I brought the imp back, my eldest wife died next to me. Doctors could not determine the cause of her death and gave a diagnosis of natural death. But she's always been healthy, which seems unlikely. The next day, my company's stock price immediately rose by 10%. And then on the second and third day, everyone in my family died, and they were all my dearest relatives. That's when I realized that this little ghost needs to be worshiped with a living soul, and he picks people close to me! On the one hand, my wife, children, and grandchildren died one by one, and on the other hand, the market value of my company doubled in just ten days. And my cancer is getting better day by day, and I am getting younger and younger. ”
"So, you will exchange the lives of your relatives for your long life, 100 years old, wealth and glory? Oh, man. Ning Xiaoman snorted coldly, and said disdainfully without giving Lin Yaocheng any face.
"No, on the fourth day when my beloved little grandson died, I smashed the golden body of the little imp and threw it into the sea. That night, however, it returned. ”
