Chapter Eighty-Three: Calculation
How could Zhou Ning admit it, he hurriedly shook his head, and said with a dark face: "Didn't I say it earlier, except for the one I traded with you, I won't sell the rest of the fire crystals." Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Everyone expressed their disbelief and asked Zhou Ning to take out the fire crystal again. As long as the other party can take it out, they just don't buy it and feel at ease!
But Zhou Ning shirked in every possible way, and finally had to roar: "I have absorbed all the fire crystals, and there is no one!" If you want to buy it, find it yourself! ”
Ji Fanzhen was suspicious, his eyes were like silk, and he hooked him obliquely to tell the truth: "Really? ”
Zhou Ning was stunned by her eyes: "How dare I." Why don't you touch it yourself? ”
As he spoke, he sat down on the chair, his hands raised flat, as if I would never resist Ren Juncai.
Ji Fanzhen snorted at him: "I know." I'll believe you first! ”
Seeing Zhou Ning being such a scoundrel, everyone became more and more sure: Huo Chaocheng hurried away, saying that he was going to prepare for remittance, but in fact, he was more important to hide the fire crystal! After all, it was bought for a billion dollars, and if you don't hide it properly at this time, when they react, it's not good to target him.
Thinking like this, more than half of them broke away from the group and walked outside. Even if the rest of the people were queuing, they all took out their mobile phones and called their subordinates, making people stare at Huo Chaocheng's movements.
When Zhou Ning saw it, he couldn't help but secretly give himself a thumbs up. The mess caused by the fire crystal is still cleaned up by more capable people. He was impatient to deal with so many people.
"Father, Zhou Ning is doing this, is it too much!" When Zhou Ben saw it for the first time, he said angrily: "You recognized him as the Zhou family, and supported him in front of Huo Chaocheng, but he didn't leave us a single fire crystal!" ”
The Zhou family only sent one subordinate to line up, and the others all sat aside and waited. After hearing everyone's words, not only Zhou Benchu was angry, but Zhou Shanting was also faintly uncomfortable.
He himself did not covet Zhou Ning's fire crystal.
What he cares about is Zhou Ning's attitude.
"If it weren't for you, he would have recognized his ancestors a long time ago! How dare anyone bully him! As soon as Zhou Shanting saw his second son, he felt angry, and when he saw him complaining to himself, he reprimanded mercilessly: "When I don't know your careful thoughts!" Idiot! ”
Zhou Benchu's face was red, and he sat to the side with his head down, the more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and his eyes were red.
"Grandpa." Zhou Jiawang hurriedly spoke: "My dad is just too angry. But the eldest brother is really excessive, either don't sell any of them, and if you want to sell them, you should consider us. Even if it's fair, you can bid against each other. Outsiders still have to respect our Wuyin City for three points and save face. The eldest brother seems to hate us to death, and would rather sell things to Huo Chaocheng than sell them to us. ”
Zhou Jiawang is not all provocative. Zhou Ning's approach is quite understandable in the eyes of others, after all, Huo Chaocheng is a local snake, and he wants to give some face. But from the position of the Zhou family, when the Zhou family had made it clear that they wanted to support him, he was still slapping the Zhou family in the face by doing so.
This time, grandpa won't be returning to Zhou Ning!
But Zhou Shanting's performance stimulated him again.
"yes, he's going to hate me." Zhou Shanting was not only not provoked by Zhou Jiawang, but was touched by his words, and suddenly became depressed: "He has struggled from a state of poverty and whiteness to the current situation, during which he has experienced dozens of assassinations, and I don't think about the hardships and sins he has suffered, but I sit here and feel unhappy that he didn't give us some face." I...... He really doesn't deserve to be his grandfather. ”
Feelings that can be easily provoked are not considered feelings. He thought he cared about Zhou Ning, but now that he thought about it, those violent feelings were just because of the unsustenance of his missing eldest son.
So Zhou Ning doesn't care?
After hearing this, Zhou Jiawang's face was distorted for a moment.
"Grandpa!" He cried out, "What the hell do you mean! Don't you know how important that fire crystal is to me? ”
His abilities are powerful and special. Although he is already one of the best among his peers, he always feels that he is not yet at the end. The feeling of emptiness in his body made him uncomfortable. Although I have absorbed a small amount of crystal beads, I always feel that it is not enough. Now that ten pieces of fire crystals have been produced at once, if Zhou Ning can sell them all to him, even if he gives up the position of the head of the Zhou family, he will be willing!
Zhou Shanting saw his grandson's out-of-control demeanor, looked at the mocking eyes shooting around, and felt what it was like to be embarrassed for the first time.
"The thing has already been sold, what's the use of you calling it again." He knocked on his crutches angrily and said coldly: "If you have the ability, you will take it back!" Always ask others to let you make you think you have a big face! ”
So many people have gone out, isn't it clear enough what the idea is?
If you want it, grab it!
If you don't want to grab it, you can't grab it, so hold it back!
Someone else is not your father or your mother, why should you give it if you want it?
The old man's words were very explicit, almost encouraging his grandson to rob! However, instead of thinking it was inappropriate, everyone faintly agreed!
Who made the surname Huo too flamboyant! Nine fire crystals, none of them were left, they were all swallowed by him alone, and if he didn't rob him, he was sorry that everyone had been queuing for so long!
Huo Chaocheng didn't know that Zhou Ning had shouted out the contract between the two, and calculated that a large number of people were staring at him and preparing to rob. He took Huo Jiang directly to the chief hall of the Central District, and after asking the guards to turn on the special guard, he carried the gray cloth bag into the office area.
Huo Jiang said to Huo Chaocheng as he walked: "Dad, what are you putting in here?" Fire Crystals? ”
Huo Chaocheng entered his office, only then did he open his pocket, take out the contents one after another and put them on the desk: "It's not Huojing." ”
As he spoke, he put things in order, and then without raising his head, he said to Huo Jiang: "Let Secretary Jiang notify the internal tribunal that the video conference will be held in five minutes." ”
Huo Jiang looked at the pile of "broken copper and iron", and was full of doubts in his heart, but he didn't know where to start, so he could only go out for the time being and convey Huo Chaocheng's order.
Video conferences don't require physical presence and are especially quick to prepare. Huo Jiang stood outside for a while, and saw Hu Junmin entangled with the guards through the floor-to-ceiling window, and his brows furrowed slightly.
"Let people go and see what's going on." He said to his subordinates: "The chief has issued a special guard. No one is allowed to enter or leave. ”
He vaguely felt that Hu Junmin was here for what his father had in his hands, and although he had a good impression of this person, he should be vigilant at all.
Turning around, when he entered Huo Chaocheng's office again, the meeting inside had already begun.
"Lock the doors of your office, and listen to me after the network is encrypted."
Before it started, Huo Chaocheng gave an order to the group.
"Chief, I don't know what the topic of this meeting is." Secretary Jiang, who was in charge of the minutes of the meeting, asked.
Huo Chaocheng watched everyone finish the operation before he slowly spoke: "Two things, one is that the Ministry of Finance will immediately allocate one billion yuan to me; The second thing is to contact the people of the military department and select a few talented and loyal people to come over. ”
"A billion?" The Minister of Finance was a little surprised: "What about the use? ”
Huo Chaocheng pointed to the things on the table: "It's all used to buy these things." ”
In fact, he was very reluctant to make it public. According to his selfishness, he hated to leave everything in the Huo family and not mention it to anyone. However, firstly, the Huo family could not come up with a billion yuan of liquidity, and secondly, they would cultivate the exercises and magic weapons of the demons, and they would not prepare a case in advance, and it would be easy to be found in the future. Based on these two points, he had to gather the high-level leaders of Huaxia and share such a large "pie".
However, not everyone can find value in these things. The Minister of Finance is one of them. After he saw the broken axes, broken whips and a lot of unseen rags on the desk through the video, he immediately exploded: "Can this garbage be worth a billion?" Chief Huo, are you kidding us? ”
Huo Jiang was also shocked, turned his head and looked at his father carefully, with an expression of "what should I do if my dad is crazy".
Huo Chaocheng saw it, but he was quite calm, and after the finance minister finished speaking, he continued: "This pile of garbage is a magic weapon. ”
"Magic weapons?" Someone lost his voice and said, "The demon has come?!" ”
Huo Chaocheng sneered: "What's the hurry, I haven't finished talking yet." ”
He picked up the missing axe, felt the faint sense of repulsion emanating from it, and said to everyone: "One billion, not only can you buy these magic weapons, but you can also buy the exercises of cultivating demons." ”
Glancing at his anxious son, he said unhurriedly, "I think you must think I'm stupid or crazy." But you don't know, this exercise can also be practiced by those of us who are supernatural. Think about it, the demons that you feared, feared, and studied day and night to kill were originally just ordinary people with magical abilities, just like us. Are you willing to just stand there and let them be slaughtered? It is only because they are blessed with both a cultivation environment and cultivation methods that they can ascend to the heavens in one step, and then tear open the cracks and come to us to wantonly kill indiscriminately. When we start with them, what advantages do they have? ”
He paused, giving everyone time to digest.
"Dad, will you be deceived?" After digesting it, Huo Jiang not only didn't believe it, but questioned it: "That surnamed Zhou doesn't look good." Can you believe what he says? Anyway, we don't know magic weapons, so it's not up to him to say it. A billion dollars! He's really open-mouthed! ”
Huo Jiang's words aroused the approval of most people, not only did they not prepare to allocate funds to Huo Chaocheng, but they persuaded Huo Chaocheng to throw away all the garbage......
Huo Chaocheng was silent for a moment, and then said, "Then you listen to me first." ”
He recalled Zhou Ning's words, and then told the story of the battle between Zhou Ning and those demon cultivators in the ghost graveyard.
"He's so powerful that he can kill me without a single finger." Huo Chaocheng said: "Whether those demon cultivators exist or not, you can find those natives to know." But if we don't buy this exercise, once we know that it's true in the future, won't we regret it? ”
That being said, everyone still hesitated.
"A billion is too much." The finance minister said: "Even if it's just 10 million, 20 million, we will buy it." Even if it's fake, it's a loss. But a billion ...... If this is true, it will be worth it. But what if it's fake? ”
A billion will all be wasted.
"Can you delay it for a while?" Huo Jiang said: "When we find the more than 20 natives over, it's not too late to trade after we find out!" ”
That's a good idea.
But Huo Chaocheng shook his head and said, "We can drag it, but the one surnamed Zhou won't be willing." He has a special identity and may not buy our account. ”
After everyone heard this, they were all silent, and their hearts were entangled.
In fact, most of them are unbelievers. But they still have a little expectation in a more or less small way: what if it's true?
If it is true, after they cultivate, they will be able to raise their hands into swords, wave their sleeves into swords, and harvest human lives like cutting rice......
I can't think about it, and when I think about it, I'm so excited that I can't sit still.
Huo Chaocheng couldn't help but smile when he looked at everyone's sad and hesitant looks.
"If it's just for the money, you really don't have to worry so much." He put down the ghost axe in his hand, raised his head and said to everyone: "That surnamed Zhou trapped me in the water curtain and almost killed me, don't I hate?" Am I really so stupid to send him so much wealth? ”
This can be regarded as talking to the hearts of everyone, and the person who can be the chief in the base is not allowed to be underestimated by a silver-armed Diao Min.
"Everybody knows the demons are coming. At this time, the more money you save, the more you lose. A billion only, we can manipulate it to buy a city at an expensive price; Naturally, it can also be manipulated, and it can only buy a piece of bread. Huo Chaocheng showed a sneer on his lips: "Even if he can avoid inflation in the future, I have a way to deal with him!" He is now selling things happily, counting the money until his hands cramp. When it was time to restock, I made him cry and couldn't leave! ”
Huo Jiang's eyes lit up: "You mean, we issued a purchase restriction order on him?" ”
Placing a purchase restraining order on a specific person is the most basic form of punishment. For example, a slave can only buy the most basic daily necessities, and other things, especially dangerous goods such as knives and guns, whoever trades with him will be guilty of the same crime.
There are hundreds of people on Zhou Ning's ship, and if they stay here for a day, they will have to eat, drink, and Lazar for a day. Huo Chaocheng gave him a purchase restriction order, according to his status as a silver-level national, merchants do not need to prohibit trading with him, but they can infinitely raise the price and knock him hard. Coupled with the infinite delay of the people below, all kinds of formalities are stuck layer by layer, he just wants to leave immediately, but there is no way.
"I'm afraid that the Zhou family will interfere." Huo Jiang said: "After all, it is the descendant of the Zhou family. ”
Huo Chaocheng snorted coldly: "They can help if they want to?" The demon war is imminent, supplies are in short supply, and the supply of foreign population is limited. If you want to eat well and eat to your heart's content, take something in exchange. ”
Just take this opportunity to make a deal!
As for the enmity with Wuyin City because of this?
Hehe, the war is coming, who knows what will happen after this big war! Maybe the city of five tones has been completely destroyed?
Huo Chaocheng persuaded everyone so much, allocated money within an hour, and bought all the exercises in Zhou Ning's hands. Then the gates were closed and the wartime security phase was announced. (To be continued.) )
