Chapter 803: Business

"Patriarch Thunder, what I just said is the polished star stone, frankly speaking, you should know how hard the star stone is, and how difficult it is to polish you should also know. The difficulty of this processing is much more difficult than finding the star stone.

Just like this piece that has not been processed, it can't be sold in the Central Plains market at all. So, Thunder Chief, you can't sit on the ground and ask the lion to open his mouthβ€”"

"How can this be, let's go in and talk? What are you still doing here? Why don't you disperse quickly, Brother Wu, please-"

"Thunder Patriarch please, by the way, I wonder if Thunder Patriarch can give us a sip of water to drink?"

"Yes, yes, that's enough!" Lei Lie turned around, but saw a pair of malicious eyes staring straight at Ning Yue and the others, and his face suddenly dropped, "What are you still doing around, quickly disperse, disperse quickly, don't get in the way of your guests."

Lei Xing, quickly pack out a room for the distinguished guests to rest, the noble car is tired, it must have been tired for a long time. Also, bring some bread and some water......"

As soon as the words came out, he shouted like a shopkeeper. The entire mine department was also completely chaotic at this moment. Dodge away, run to work, and the curious people still pointed at Ning Yue and the Immortal Immortals. Lei Bu's attitude towards Ning Yue and the others was completely different before and after.

Under the leadership of Lei Lie, Ning Yue and the others were arranged in a stone house. Although the stone house is very old, it looks like it has not been inhabited for a long time. But the stone houses are also intact, and on the edge of the stone houses, there are many dilapidated stone houses like this one with closed doors.

Ning Yue looked curiously at the scale of the stone house and the tribe, and gradually realized the past glory and current depression of the Thunder Tribe. Ning Yue led the camel into the yard, stopped the camel cart, and then got off with Twilight Snow.

And Twilight Snow and Silly Aunt both wore veils on their heads, so they didn't cause Lei Lie's excessive surprise. Just casually glanced at Qian Duxue and asked curiously, "Why does Brother Wu go out to do business with his younger siblings?"

"It's a long journey, the road is lonely!" Ning Yue let out a long sigh and looked at Lei Lie with a look that you understand.

Lei Lie suddenly understood, and quietly gave Ning Yue a thumbs up, "Gao Ming, know how to save money." ”

The stone house had been cleaned up by the people arranged by Lei Lie, and Lei Lie led Ning Yue into the stone house. The stone house is rudimentary and has little furnishings, the only thing is a stone table and a few stone benches.

"This is the guest hall, and the two rooms on the east and west sides are bedrooms. The one across the door is also a bedroom. Each room has a stone bed, and you can live in it by simply laying out a futon. The premises are simple, and we ask for your forgiveness.

However, a few distinguished guests, because our tribe has not had outsiders come for decades, so the tribesmen of the tribe are more xenophobic, so please don't walk around after a few people stay. If you need anything, just call and I'll send someone to call a few at any time. ”

"The Thunder Clan Leader has a heart!" Ning Yue smiled indifferently, casually motioning for the Thunder Clan Leader to sit down on the edge of the stone table here, while Qianduxue walked to the room in the East Room with the silly girl. It's all so casual and natural.

Ning Yue also seemed to have become the master of this room, both her demeanor and her movements were so suitable for her identity. Seeing Ning Yue behaving like this, Lei Lie's eyes lit up again. Because Ning Yue and Qianduxue's temperament and habits are obviously not something that ordinary people can cultivate.

Without the heritage of three generations of wealth, it is absolutely impossible to make the kind of nobility that seems to come from the bone marrow. Lei Lie sat opposite Ning Yue, while the Immortal Immortal sat beside Ning Yue without saying a word.

"This old gentleman is ......" Lei Lie looked at the ageless immortal curiously, but the ageless immortal turned his face slightly. Seriously, it's quite difficult to let the Immortal Immortal deal with people like Lei Lie. Looking at the arrogance of the immortal immortals, Lei Lie did not have much shame in his heart. Instead, he looked at Ning Yue opposite with some curiosity.

Suddenly, Lei Lie's gaze was once again attracted by what was in Ning Yue's hand. Two night pearls as big as eggs seemed to be just a casual plaything in Ning Yue's hands. Since you want to dress up as a businessman, it's best to dress up as a local tyrant.

"Patriarch Lei smiled, he is the elder of my family, in terms of seniority, I need to call him grandpa. Not much else, let's get down to business. I want to do this star stone business with the Thunder Ministry, but I wonder if the Thunder Patriarch has any intentions?"

"I naturally have intentions, but ...... Lei has a doubt in his heart, but he needs Brother Wu to solve his doubts. ”

"Thunder Patriarch, but it doesn't hurt. Ning Yue said with a chuckle.

"Judging from Brother Wu's gestures and clothes, as well as the temperament shown by you and your wife, Brother Wu's family should be either rich or expensive. Why did only three or four people from such a prominent family come to the desert to do business? You must know that although there have always been people walking on this desert trade road, the dangers involved cannot be exhausted.

You're lucky enough to have met our Thunder Ministry, but if you meet other tribes. Not to mention the money earned, maybe you will die in a foreign country. Could it be that in your family, you can rest assured that a young master like Brother Wu can go thousands of miles alone?"

Looking at Lei Lie's smiling eyes, Ning Yue sneered disdainfully in her heart. If it weren't for his own spirit, I'm afraid the thunder department would have already started at this time, right? Ning Yue's face once again had that smile like a spring breeze.

"Every family has a difficult scripture to read, and every family has a difficult place. Although my family is big, I am not a descendant. So, is there a way out but to fight hard by yourself? Where to die, isn't it all the same? Forget it, don't say these frustrating words, let's talk about business. ”

"I see-" Lei Lie's eyes showed a look of sudden realization, and his eyes looked at Ning Yue with endless recognition, "It's either a concubine, or a sin, it's just you." Since Brother Wu has the courage to break the kettle, Lei naturally can't disappoint Brother Wu.

Star Stone, we can help find it, but how to divide the account, we have to make a good decision. After all, we can find Star Stones in the Thunder Department, but Star Stones are extremely rare, and we don't know when they will be gone. So...... Brother Wu, please don't open your mouth. ”

"The price of the star stone is determined according to its size, and the price difference between the size is also extremely huge. If the price is set at the price of the Central Plains, it is obviously unreasonable and it is difficult to give a suitable estimate. Therefore, I plan to buy the star stone at a price of five hundred taels and one catties, no matter how big or small, five hundred and one catties. ”

"Brother Wu is not honest like this, fifty taels and one catty? Do you know how big a catty of star stones is? Like this one in my hand, two are enough. And most of the star stones are not as big as nails, so the price is too little. ”

"A lot, you must know that you are selling rough stones, you must know that star stones need to be polished, need to be processed to sell, and the process is cumbersome, and the processing is difficult beyond you can imagine. Fifty taels is already an extremely fair price. ”

"Three hundred taels, at least three hundred taels!" Lei Lie suddenly put away his smile and looked at Ning Yue coldly.

"One hundred taels, no more. If you're still bargaining with me, I'd rather not do this business. You know, how long we have to travel from the Central Plains to the minefield, and how much financial resources we need to consume? I can't help but consider these costs and risks. If you have to insist, we'll get together and disperse. ”

Looking at Ning Yue's serious and firm expression, Lei Lie's eyes suddenly became gloomy. stared at Ning Yue coldly for a long time, and suddenly laughed after seeing that Ning Yue did not flinch in the slightest.

"Hahaha...... Brother Wu is really the material for doing business, one hundred taels is one hundred taels, but I have one condition. ”

"What conditions?" Ning Yue asked curiously.

"For the first transaction, we don't want money. ”

"Don't want money, then what do you want?" Ning Yue's eyes flashed with essence, and she hurriedly asked curiously.

"Food, water, clothes, necessities of life, the first transaction, exchange these things of equal value!" Lei Lie said excitedly, looking at the doubts in Ning Yue's eyes, Lei Lie's expression suddenly softened and became full of sadness.

"In the past, our Mineminibe was so prosperous, although there were relatively few merchants in the Central Plains, most of the people walking on the desert would pass by our Mineministry, and they would bring all the daily necessities we needed.

But all of that changed 20 years ago. On that day, the earth was shaken, and there was originally a lake with a fountain of life on the edge of our thunder department, which had nurtured countless people for thousands of years.

But after that sudden concussion, the fountain of life dried up overnight. Without water, we lose our water source. The only way to get water is the well in the middle of our tribe. The surrounding tribes left, but we stayed because of Zuxun.

The wells gush out of a limited amount of water every day, and it simply cannot support our tribe to survive. And because there was no fountain of life, gradually, fewer and fewer people passed by our tribe, until no one passed by anymore.

I was young at the time, and my father was still the patriarch at the time. We, the Thunder Department, have lived here for generations, guarding the Thunder Mountain and guarding the Thunder Knife. However, what are we doing guarding the Thunder Mountain? What are we doing guarding the Thunder Knife? It's useless! The people need to survive and live.

I once suggested to my father that we move our tribe as soon as possible, wherever we want, as long as we could survive. But...... You know, people are just so helpless sometimes. No matter how reasonable I am, in front of the stubborn, it's nonsense.

It dragged on like this for a year, and finally, we could no longer leave the minehead and leave this cage. We are like an animal, led by the edge of a well, and we can't go anywhere. There is no future, there is no hope.

Brother Wu, our Lei Department used to have a population of more than 1,000, but in just 20 years, there are only less than 300 people left. The others died, buried in the sand. ”

Speaking of emotion, two crystal tears fell from the corners of Lei Lie's eyes. Perhaps, as the patriarch, he did work hard for his tribe, maybe he really tried but lost helplessly to fate.
