Chapter 209: Late Night Trading
The two Fengpeng flew for about half an hour each carrying four people, and came to the border of the Li family and the Liu family.
The forest was dark under the moonlight, the rivers and lakes were secluded, and after circling around, Li Rufeng suddenly pointed to a lake and said: "That is Jingpo Lake, descending to the west bank of the lake,"
The huge wings began to tilt, and the wind peng circled and slowly descended, and the roar of the wind peng when it landed on the ground was transmitted far away in the night sky.
As soon as the eight people jumped off the back of Feng Peng, there was a gurgling paddling sound on the lake, and a white canopy painting boat was swinging more than a dozen long oars, like a prawn skimming the water.
Li Rufeng nodded at his entourage, and the entourage immediately took out a signal disk inlaid with various colors of luminous stones, and flashed at the incoming boat.
Soon, the opposite ship also gave the same signal, and then, a large number of luminous stones lit up on the ship, illuminating the whole ship as if it were day.
"Elder Li, Liu has been waiting for a long time,"
On the bow of the boat, a young man with a face as white as paper and a little sickly laughed loudly,
This is Liu Zhihan of the Liu family, after retreating, he recuperated for more than half a month, his injuries have been healed for nearly half of the time, and his spirit has completely changed, the image of the previous depressed loser is gone, and he has more confidence and calmness.
Seeing Liu Zhihan appear at the bow of the boat, the corners of Li Rufeng's mouth stretched out, and he squeezed out a very reluctant smile: "Liu Gongzi, I got the order of the second elder, but I came overnight, my sincerity is enough, it depends on your news, whether it is really worth the price, to put it mildly, Liu Gongzi's price is too high, if the news is not so useful, I will not pay so much,"
"Hmph"
Liu Zhihan sneered disdainfully, and his expression became even more arrogant: "Elder Li, don't play with me, I already knew that your Li family was desperate, and they would still come to me, and now you came to trade with me overnight, it can be seen that the situation is urgent and urgent, let me tell you the truth, my news, but it can directly bring your Li family back to life, and even make a counterattack to make thousands of believers irreversible, such news, how much money you pay is worth it,"
When Li Rufeng heard "resurrection" and "no return", his eyes flashed with ecstasy, and his cheeks illuminated by the luminous stone were like a sword blade, emitting a terrifying cold light.
But the joy in his eyes lasted only a moment, and was replaced by the shrewdness peculiar to a merchant,
The pedal had been lowered on the boat, and Li Rufeng said indifferently to the people behind him: "You guys spread the guard on the shore,"
Then he walked up to the deck,
Liu Zhihan was in a very good mood, and stretched out his hand to the cabin very gracefully, guiding Li Rufeng to walk forward.
Xu Bo, who was watching Guan Fengpeng on the shore, heard the conversation between the two, and couldn't help muttering in his heart: "What kind of news is it, it will leak out from the Liu family, the Liu family and the Gu family are allies, this Liu Zhihan actually secretly dealt with Qianxin and the Gu family, presumably because of his personal grudge against Qianxin, now the Li family is cornered by the Gu family, and the elders are discussing taking the opportunity to modify the jade purchase contract with the Li family, if Li Rufeng really gets the news that he can fight back against Qianxin and the Gu family, won't the Xu family's plan be in vain,"
The Xu family operates the jade, the Li family mines the jade mine, the two seem to be allies made in heaven, but the people who do business always want to eat up and down, the Li family has always wanted to get involved in the field of jade refining, and the Xu family has always wanted to completely control the source of jade ore.
Therefore, the struggle between the Li family and the Gu family not only did not make the Xu family and the Li family get closer, but made the two sides have more mustard, and the reason is naturally that the Xu family saw a rare opportunity, so they wanted to modify the jade purchase contract with the Li family, and wanted to take advantage of this to intervene in jade mining, so as to grasp the real output of jade and further control the circulation of jade.
The Xu family's move was naturally regarded as a fall by the Li family, but the Li family was in need of allies, although the elders of the Li family were not angry in their hearts, they did not explicitly refuse, but just delayed again and again, wanting to wait until the situation reversed to make the Xu family know the difficulty and retreat.
Li Rufeng came out to trade the certificate, and actually asked the service monk of the Xu family to follow, but he didn't deliberately leak a little secret to knock on the Xu family.
Xu Bo, as a monk arranged by the Xu family near the Li family, of course, also had the task of finding out information for the family, and when he learned that Li Rufeng and Liu Zhihan traded evidence against Qianxin, he could no longer be calm.
He was absentmindedly comforting the two Fengpeng on the shore, and listened to the conversation on the boat with all his ears, but after Li Rufeng got on the boat, the boat sailed towards the center of the lake, and Xu Bo soon couldn't hear anything clearly.
Looking at the monks of the Li family who were scattered a mile or two away to guard, Xu Bo deliberately led the two Fengpeng to the lake, pretending to wash their feathers.
Then, he sent a divine thought into the sword: "Xiao Jiu, go to the side of the boat and listen to what they are saying,"
"It's too dangerous, they also have a sword soul, they will find mine," Xu Bo's sword soul protested,
"What are you afraid of, isn't there still me, the Li family needs the help of the Xu family now, and they don't dare to offend us,"
"Okay, if I'm caught, you can save me,"
Xu Bo's sword soul left the sword body and flew towards the big boat in the middle of the lake.
The pure soul body arrived in an instant, and Xiao Jiu quickly used his soul power to capture the sound in the cabin,
When Xiao Jiu approached the hull, Liu Zhihan frowned, and his expression was slightly awe-inspiring: "Elder Li, our transaction is so important, you actually let your people use the sword soul to snoop, it's not good,"
When Li Rufeng heard this, he smiled meaningfully, in this deserted place, there can never be outsiders, and the monks of the Li family he brought are extremely loyal, and it is impossible for him to monitor.
The only one who has the idea of eavesdropping is the only one left who serves as a monk in the Xu family.
Li Rufeng intended to let the Xu family know that the situation of the Li family had improved, and he wished that Xu Bo would come to spy on the news, so he took the opportunity to cover for Xu Bo.
He smiled embarrassedly: "Liu Gongzi, they don't distrust you, in fact, they can't trust my cultivation, you also know, my cultivation is very poor, they worry everywhere they go, they just have a habit, and they have no other intentions, rest assured, the people I brought are the most loyal people, and they will never reveal the details of our transaction,"
"That's good,"
Liu Zhihan sneered: "Elder Li, you also know that our Liu family and the Gu family are now allies, and Qianxin is more likely to be the next inheritor of the secret codex, I do this, the elders of the Liu family don't know, I am just angry that Qianxin deceived the Liu family, so I cooperated with you, and I won't hide it from you, the evidence of this news is not only two people who escaped from Qianxin Manor, but also me, without my proof, I can't confirm Qianxin's crime,"
"You,"
Li Rufeng's eyelids narrowed slightly, and his eyes became sharp: "Liu Gongzi, you said that you have both money and goods, you are dragging mud and water like this, and your sincerity is not enough,"
Li Rufeng seized this opportunity to make a fuss and prepare to reduce prices.
"Elder Li, do you really think that you can bring down Qianxin with two doormen who absconded with their backs, the doormen will fight against the master's family, and they will lose half their lives if they have a reason, with Qianxin's kind of temperament that can even kill the patrol deacon and the clan son, do you think he won't take the opportunity to kill the two rebel doormen?"
Liu Zhihan's words were so said that Li Rufeng, who was about to go crazy, looked stunned,
He deliberately whetted Li Rufeng's appetite, and then said with a smug smile: "When the real and powerful witness is still me, Liu Zhihan, Elder Li, I came with 120,000 sincerity, as long as you can use these two disciples to provoke Qianxin's identity issue, I will use this to persuade the elders of the clan to draw a clear line with Qianxin and break the alliance with the Gu family, when the time comes, I will personally appear on the stage to prove Qianxin's identity secret, and as long as the Liu family gives enough sincerity from the Li family, it is not impossible for the two families to form an alliance,"
The anger on Li Rufeng's face turned into surprise after Liu Zhihan opened his mouth,
And now, his face was as dark as water, and his eyes flashed with fire,
The fingers hidden in his sleeves couldn't help but tremble with excitement, he felt his heart almost beating out, he was a lot older, he hadn't encountered such an exciting thing for a long time,
The Liu family and the Li family formed an alliance to deal with the Gu family together, which was a goal that the Li family had failed to achieve for many years.
The Li family is located in the southwest border of Lingjianmen, the Xu family in the north, the Liu family in the east, and only the Gu family in the northeast is hostile.
The Liu family, as a cultivation family close to the Li family, could have been a natural ally, and if they allied themselves with the Liu family, they could bypass the blockade of the Gu family.
But in the past, the Gu family was strong, and the Liu family did not dare to challenge the Gu family, so they had to deal with the Gu family, and the Li family was a secret friend.
So after these years of development, the Liu family has become a pro-Gu faction and a pro-Li faction.
The pro-Gu faction advocates forming an alliance with the Gu family and joining the magic weapon trade circle led by the Gu family, the Qin family, the Bu family, and the Chen family, which can provide good convenience for the monks in the clan and greatly reduce the cost of changing clothes for the family monks.
The pro-Li faction advocated an alliance with the Li family and the Xu family, and took a share of the Fayu trade, so as to win the capital against the Gu family, and finally kill the Gu family to dominate the west.
The pro-patrons are content to strive for the maximum benefit on the basis of reality,
The pro-Lee faction pursues the extreme expansion of family interests,
The two factions of the Liu family fought openly and secretly, resulting in the relationship between the Liu family and the surrounding major families being good and bad, so they left a reputation as "an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf".
Liu Zhihan is obviously a pro-Li faction, of course, if his marriage with Gu Ting was completed, he would definitely be a pro-Gu faction.
Knowing that this transaction was not only to buy evidence against Qianxin, but also to win the Liu family, an ally, the smile on Li Rufeng's face became bright, he knew that Liu Zhihan was definitely not a person, and behind him there must be a militant faction within the Liu family who advocated expansion to the Gu family.
Thinking of this sweep again, the monks of the Liu family left the Gu family and ran away in advance, and Li Rufeng believed Liu Zhihan's words even more,
The current Li family, whether it is a true ally or a fake ally, one more ally is a little more momentum, Li Rufeng is not afraid of Liu Zhihan's tricks at all,
He immediately smiled heartily: "Okay, the old man believes in Liu Gongzi's sincerity, the money for this transaction must not be owned by Liu Gongzi alone, and after that, the elders of the clan will also ask for money, and the old man will make a price first, 200,000 gold coins, and if it is not enough, you can add more,"
200,000 gold coins,
This is really not a small number, it is equivalent to twenty third-level sword souls,
Twenty third-level sword souls can arm the monks of the entire family,
For Li Rufeng, this is the position of buying the Liu family,
But Liu Zhihan did all this, not just for money, when he heard the number of 200,000, he just chuckled, he paid more attention to defeating Qianxin, so that Qianxin would never recover.
Not only can you take revenge for personal revenge, but also can put the family on a brighter path, why not,
"Haha, Elder Li is refreshing, and Liu Zhihan won't be verbose,"
Liu Zhihan laughed and ordered, "Bring someone up,"
Soon, a thirty-four-five-year-old man of medium stature was led in front of Li Rufeng, and behind him, there was a pretty woman,
The woman looked twenty-seven or eighteen years old, with tears and bruises on her face, and looked as if she had been forced.
As soon as the man came out, he knelt down in front of Li Rufeng: "The lost sinner Dong Gu and the Hun family Guan Yongqi visited the Li family elder and asked Elder Li to be the villain's master,"
Li Rufeng glanced at Liu Zhihan and saw him nodding,
Li Rufeng immediately smiled and said: "Get up, get lost, you are still a good boy, in the future, you will be a member of my Li family, you will change your name to Li Gu,"
"Thank you, Elder, Li Gu Li Gu finally has a home,"
Dong Gu, who had just gotten up, knelt down again and cried,
