Chapter 18: I Found a Treasure
Qinghedu is located on the bank of the Qinghe River that crosses the Qinghe Ridge, and is 100 miles away from Linze City, and is the only ferry port within a radius of thousands of miles. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Qinghedu has existed for thousands of years, and it was just a dilapidated pavilion in the early days, and few people visited.
However, as Yunmeng Daze has become a popular area for martial arts adventures, in just over a hundred years, a large-scale market has been formed here for food, accommodation and even trading.
A large number of adventurers used this place as a supply point between Linze City and Yunmeng Daze, which also made this place a battleground for merchants.
At this time, the sky will be dark, and the Qinghe River not far away is mighty, like a jade belt inlaid in the vast earth, which is magnificent and magnificent.
The buildings located on the shore are lit up one after another, and the long street is full of people, and the end is very lively.
Due to the lack of planning, the buildings of Qinghedu are very mixed.
There are both sturdy stone houses with stone walls and thatched wooden houses that are mainly practical, and the whole street feels messy and dirty from a distance.
But few people care about that.
Whether you are an adventurer or a businessman, you come here for only one purpose, and that is to make money!
Since it is to make money, who cares what his conditions are, and even some stingy businessmen make a special trip to choose cheap thatched houses to save costs.
It is much better to have shelter from the wind and rain than to sleep on the other side of the river.
Of course, there are also rich and noble children who complain about 'vulgarity and dirty'.
Just like the majestic young man in white in front of him.
"I've long heard that the conditions in this hellish place are difficult, how do you know that it's better to see than to hear! Now it seems that even the slum where Lei Luo is located is cleaner than here!"
Chen Xiang cautiously stepped over a sewage ditch, glanced at the smoky restaurant opposite, and complained: "The stinky smell, I really don't know how these people can eat!"
A middle-aged martial artist behind him smiled helplessly and said, "Young Master, don't you know, Qinghedu is the only foothold within a radius of thousands of miles, and for many adventurers, it is already very satisfying to have a hot meal to eat!"
Chen Xiang frowned and did not speak.
Gao Chao, who was not far away, said contemptuously: "You can't bear such a little hardship, and you are still from a martial arts family." ”
"Who is like your Gao family, in order to sell a few more pieces of cloth, running to such a remote place!"
Chen Xiang's face turned blue when he was stimulated, and he replied coldly.
Gao Chao was not angry at all, but chuckled lightly and said proudly: "If it weren't for that, we would have been able to arrive here from Linze City in just half an hour?"
Chen Xiang was speechless for a moment.
I have to admit that it is indeed good to have money.
With three people and two foreign supporters, it would take a day to ride a horse at a normal speed.
But with a wave of his hand, Gao Chao directly threw out four thousand taels of silver and rented two griffins to travel.
So, the five people, who should have been in the dust, came to the outside of the market like a leisurely walk.
That's not all, Gao Chao, who had been prepared for a long time, had already arranged everyone's accommodation before he came - he lived in Gao's cloth shop.
It is foreseeable that the guys in the cloth shop must have prepared a hot meal waiting for the arrival of their young master.
This made Chen Xiang feel quite uncomfortable, he actually carefully prepared a travel plan, and wanted to ask for a lottery in front of Feng Xinyue.
didn't expect this guy Gao Chao to be so generous and directly rented two griffins......
Four thousand taels of silver is not much, but it is only forty bottles of Blood Qi Pill, but it is definitely not a small amount for Chen Xiang.
Really speaking, the Chen family started with martial arts, and of course they are not poor.
In terms of family business alone, it is even far more than the Gao family who relied on the cloth shop to make a fortune.
But as the so-called poor literature and rich martial arts, cultivating martial arts has always cost a lot of money.
No matter how big the Chen family is, it can't stand the consumption of many martial artists.
Moreover, although the Gao family is small, because Gao Chao is an only son, he has always been willing to give up in terms of money.
The Chen family is different, there are more than a dozen in Chen Xiang's generation alone, not to mention that there is a cousin who has become a formal refiner.
If there are any professions in the world that cost more than martial arts, the refiner is undoubtedly one of them.
But all the materials that are a little rarer start with 10,000 gold, and as for cherishing the materials...... Money can't buy it, only barter.
It is no exaggeration to say that the refiner is the real bottomless pit!
Even if a family like the Chen family is enough to rank in the top ten in Linze City, it is quite difficult to cultivate one.
Faced with the dilemma that the landlord's family had no surplus food, Chen Xiang was a disciple of a wealthy family, but in fact he was only more relaxed than ordinary people.
In his words, he satirized the Gao family for unscrupulous means in order to make money, but in fact, he was quite envious in his heart.
It's just that he was not to be outdone in front of Feng Xinyue, so he deliberately did so.
At this time, I was choked by Gao Chao's words, but I could only bear it helplessly.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward, and then Feng Xinyue suddenly spoke: "I don't know where Lei Luo has gone at this time?"
Yesterday's appointment, everyone met at Qinghedu.
Originally, Feng Xinyue planned to go by herself, but Gao Chao and Chen Xiang were unwilling to leave the left and right, so they simply went together.
Lei Luo was not treated like this.
"It stands to reason that he should still be on the way!"
Gao Chao was too lazy to worry about Chen Xiang, and when he heard Feng Xinyue's meaning of changing the topic, he responded casually.
Chen Xiang was unwilling to be deflated, and retorted: "If you set off on horseback early in the morning, you should have arrived at this time!"
Gao Chao smiled contemptuously, shook his head, and said, "Do you think a miser like Lei Luo would be willing to rent a horse?"
He was quite depressed when he remembered what happened yesterday.
In order to please Feng Xinyue, he spent a thousand taels of silver to smash it to Lei Luo.
And that's not all, this bastard is actually rambling with himself over a broken table.
Gao Chao was so annoyed that when he was leaving, he had no choice but to lose the table money!
Five taels of silver, even if he threw it on the ground, he didn't bother to pick it up, but the rotten and broken table in Lei Luo's house was broken at the touch of a button...... How can this bastard have the face to make himself pay!
See the villain with an eye for money!
Gao Chao made a ruthless definition in his heart.
Chen Xiang also thought of Lei Luo's greedy face, and was speechless again.
Three people walked in front, and two foreign helpers followed.
Feng Xinyue said worriedly as she walked: "According to the plan, we will cross the river early tomorrow morning, this guy won't be in time, right?"
Gao Chao and Chen Xiang were equally worried.
After thinking about it, Gao Chao smiled bitterly: "I hope he won't lose a big deal because of a small one, otherwise when he comes back this time, he will definitely give him a good look!"
Chen Xiang looked surprisingly approving.
Until now, he still couldn't understand why Gao Chao would rather take out a thousand taels of silver to let Lei Luo be Feng Xinyue's foreign aid.
Even if you have money, it's not such a bad thing.
But thinking that just to save a little time, the guy threw out four thousand taels, as if he really had money and nowhere to spend......
The three of them walked along the street, and after a short time, they were already standing in front of the door of Gao's cloth shop.
The old shopkeeper of the cloth shop has been waiting for a long time, and when he saw Gao Chao, he immediately greeted him with a smile: "Young master, you can count it, the villain has asked people to prepare a sumptuous banquet, and when the young master and your friends freshen up a little, they can enter the table!"
"I'm tired of Ye Bo!"
Gao Chao is worthy of being the son of a businessman, and he is exquisite.
One sentence made the old shopkeeper smile, and shook his head and said, "It's an honor for the villain to serve the young master!"
Chen Xiang watched this scene with a toothache, but Feng Xinyue's beautiful eyes lit up slightly, and she couldn't help but have a good impression of Gao Chao.
was greeting, and suddenly someone on the side smiled and said: "It's better to be in time than to be in time, and I'm worried that I don't have money to eat, so I let me meet you here!"
The three of them were stunned at the same time, and when they looked back, a young man who seemed to have just come out of the coal kiln was smiling proudly.
The young man carried a huge bag, and if it weren't for the fact that his clothes were still intact, he would probably be mistaken for a beggar.
"Thunder...... Lowe?"
Feng Xinyue called out hesitantly.
The young man laughed, revealing his white teeth: "It's not me, who else can it be?"
Gao Chao and Chen Xiang looked at each other, and said in their hearts, how can this guy always be unexpected.
Feng Xinyue laughed and said, "Why are you so embarrassed?"
Lei Luo replied to the question, grabbed Gao Chao, and said: "It just so happens that you are also here, I have got a few weapons that can bring out your strongest strength!"
Gao Chao was grabbed by the black hand, and the white practice uniform suddenly had five more fingerprints, and he looked confused: "What, what do you mean?"
Lei Luo smiled and said: "The meaning is obvious, you are so bold, you won't even be willing to pay a small amount of money to buy soldiers, right?"
...... Money!...... Buy Soldiers!
Not only did Gao Chao react, but Chen Xiang and Feng Xinyue also woke up at this time.
The bag on this guy's back is going to be sold to his own soldiers?
The three of them looked at each other, and they didn't know what to say for a while.
Gao Chao couldn't break free of Lei Luo's claws, and was annoyed: "I'm sorry, we have already bought weapons in the night black market. ”
Not to mention that he had already bought it, even if he didn't buy it, he didn't plan to make Lei Luo satisfied.
This bastard grabbed him as soon as they met, and made it clear that he was a Kaizizai.
Buy his weapons, drink the Northwest Wind, go!
Feng Xinyue also said apologetically: "I knew that you would choose weapons for us, so I wouldn't have bought them that night!"
Chen Xiang sneered repeatedly, although he didn't say anything, his expression was obviously disdainful of Lei Luo's approach.
Lei Luo was suddenly unaware, and said with a smile: "My weapon is different, you can see it by looking at it!"
As he spoke, he took out a longbow from the package and handed it to Feng Xinyue.
"Isn't that the bow that gave you?"
Feng Xinyue subconsciously took it, surprised and funny: "Are you going to sell it back to me?"
Gao Chao was simply stunned, and he couldn't help but scold in his heart: "This bastard is not a thing!"
To buy that bow, Feng Xinyue spent 1,300 taels of silver, just to apologize to Lei Luo.
Of course, this is also because the bastard's second awakening is worth wooing.
Either way, it's a gift!
I've never heard of the truth of accepting gifts from others and selling them to others.
How poor are you to be so shameless!
Gao Chao was completely speechless.
Chen Xiang was stunned at the same time, but he couldn't help but be secretly happy.
He didn't agree with Feng Xinyue to invite Lei Luo to be a foreign aid, and throwing money and smashing people made him even more puzzled and jealous and hateful.
Seeing that the two of them were so shocked by Lei Luo's shameless approach that their jaws almost dropped, they were as comfortable as drinking ice water on a hot day!
Should!
You're going to have to find this bastard who can't hold up the wall!
