Chapter 270: Xishan Guan Family
A penny is hard to die a hero, this sentence is not false at all.
At least, the current Shenhuan has a deep understanding of this sentence. How to further strengthen the Questioning Sword has been seen, and how to obtain the Hidden Qi Stone has also been clear, everything seems to be a matter of course, but the most important factor is missing - money!
Tibetan gas stone is not an ownerless gravel loess on the roadside, it is a valuable mineral deposit excavated and mined by the Xishan Guan family, which has to be bought with money!
But where did Shenhuan go to make such a sum of money now?
The money of the three Shenhuan has always been handed over to Zhuo Qing for management, but the little savings they had when they were treasure hunters in the past turned into ashes as early as the battle of the Shuozhou Law Field. The money they used later was a little bit that Zhuo Qing brought out when he returned home. Although the three of them didn't spend much, they slowly spent it after a long time.
If it weren't for living here in Yi Zhen without worrying about food and shelter, maybe Shenhuan and them would have found themselves in the dilemma of having no money to use.
In the end, it was Yi Zhen who solved this problem for the three of Shenhuan.
This is not that the three of Shenhuan took the initiative to ask Yi Zhen for help. In fact, when they were on the top of the mountain, Shenhuan and the others had a tacit understanding that they would never borrow money from Yi Zhen this time. The three of them just asked Yi Zhen how to make money quickly on the three islands, and make a lot of money.
After Yi Zhen asked the reason for the matter, he knew that Zhuo Qing, Tu Lie, and Qingfeng would leave with Shenhuan, and he suddenly came to his senses.
Yi Zhen took out a jade plate from his waist and solved this problem for Shenhuan and the others: "This matter is very simple, you take this thing to find the Xishan Guan family, and say that I promised to rescue them once in the future, so that they can give you enough Qi Stone." ”
"This ...... Thank you for your kindness, senior, but we don't want to trouble you for these little things. Shenhuan looked at the jade card, not knowing whether to take it or not. Don't take it, it refutes Yi Zhen's face, take it, isn't this equivalent to borrowing money in disguise?
Sure enough, Yi Zhen saw that Shenhuan was a little hesitant, and deliberately frowned, pretending to be angry.
Shen Huan had already seen Yi Zhen's moodiness, and when he saw Yi Zhen's unhappy expression, Shen Huan didn't know whether it was true or not. However, at this time, it is natural to believe the truth rather than the falsehood. Shenhuan had no choice but to reluctantly accept Yi Zhen's kindness.
Seeing that Shenhuan took the jade card, Yi Zhen's face immediately turned cloudy and cloudy, cloudy and sunny, and "worriedly" persuaded Shenhuan to go as soon as possible, in case the hidden gas stone was sold out, it would not be good.
The Xishan Guan family has three veins of hidden gas stones, and it is impossible to say that they are sold out. Shen Huan looked at Yi Zhen's expression when he sent everyone away, not so much because he was worried that they wouldn't be able to buy the Qi Hidden Stone, but because he was sending the plague god.
Shenhuan shook his head helplessly, and went straight to Xishan with Zhuo Qing, Tu Lie, and Qingfeng......
Xishan was not originally called Xishan, it should be called Xilong Mountain or Xicamel Mountain. If you look from the north and south, the mountains are undulating and extended, and the middle is obviously sinking, but the two sides are protruding, like a huge camel lying quietly resting there.
In the end, how to name it, the major families in Xishan have debated endlessly, and in the end there is no conclusion, so it can only be called "Xishan". After all, how to name the mountain range is not their focus, what they care about is the various mineral veins contained in the vast Xishan Mountain Range.
There are more than 100 ore veins of all sizes in the West Mountain, and there are also nearly 100 families of all sizes, all of which are based on mining the ore veins in the West Mountain. The Guan family, in this western mountain, is one of the largest families. Of course, they themselves will never admit this "one".
The Guan family's mansion is located on the black stone peak of the West Mountain, and the style of this house is unique, and there are some strange patterns painted on the walls. These meaningless patterns are surprisingly harmonious with the style of the whole house, and it may be too much to say that it is the finishing touch, but it does complement each other.
From the perspective of Zhuo Qing's "connoisseur", this Guan family can build such a house, which must have its historical heritage, and it is not like the nouveau riche who are vassally and elegant.
Shen Huan didn't care about these artistic things, what Shen Huan cared about was whether Guan was willing to accept a deal like Yi Zhen's promise in exchange for a large number of Qi Hidden Stones.
The three of them were now sitting in the lobby of the Guan family waiting for news, and the Calamity Mantis Qingfeng did not come up the mountain, but went to "play" with the other Heavenly Crossing Realm beasts near the Black Stone Peak.
An old man dressed as a butler stood quietly next to the three of Shenhuan, just now he had already ordered his subordinates to go in and inform the master, and he himself was here to entertain guests. Although the three of Shenhuan didn't need him to entertain anything, at least the etiquette was thorough.
"Bang!" suddenly came the sound of a wooden clock striking in the courtyard of the house.
Then, there were several consecutive "bang bang" sounds.
Although the three of them were curious, they didn't ask, after all, this is a matter in someone's family. Take the liberty of asking, in case it involves the ** of the Guan family, it will not be good to make the Guan family unhappy.
However, when the old man heard this noise, his expression was quite embarrassed, and he took the initiative to explain: "It should be that my young master wanted to sneak out and touched the mechanism, so the old man went to take a look, and asked a few guests to forgive me." ”
"We're fine, your Excellency, take care of yourself. It was Zhuo Qing who answered.
The old man bowed and exited the lobby.
Shen Huan looked at Zhuo Qing with a smile, and the meaning in his eyes couldn't be more obvious - "Sneaking out of the house, this seems to be somewhat similar to someone......"
Zhuo Qing noticed Shenhuan's eyes, but pretended not to see it, and lowered his head to fiddle with the teacup on the table, as if he had never seen such a delicate teacup.
After a while, the old man's bitter voice came from outside the hall: "Young master...... Don't sneak out again, the last time you went out was nearly ten years, and the old man got a lot of anger...... Fortunately, this time it was the old slave who came first, in case one of your elders found out that you were trapped in the institution first, you would be miserable. ”
"Bad luck!"
Shen Huan felt that this voice was somewhat familiar, and when he looked up, he saw an old acquaintance following the old man into the lobby.
The man also saw Shenhuan, and his expression suddenly became exciting: "Huh, Brother Shenhuan, why are you here?"
"It's a coincidence, I didn't expect the Xishan Guan family to be your family. Shenhuan also smiled, "Anyway, why don't you go to the Hidden Dragon Self-Improvement Association?"
This person is the Guan Qi who once fought side by side with Shenhuan in the unpredictable abyss!
Hearing Shenhuan mention the "Hidden Dragon Self-Improvement Association", Guan Qi's expression became depressed: "Don't mention it, it's not because I was captured by my father......"
