There is also the thin man sitting in the shadow in the side corner, who is the most powerful gang leader in the capital of Chu State. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info He likes to wear black clothes, just like Lao Jin, the specific name is long unknown, only a nickname similar to "Lao Hei". I heard that Lao Hei used to be a doctor before, and he also studied under Bian Que. Using a scalpel to deliver pregnant women is what Lao Hei is best at. Lao Hei is a philanthropist who has raised thousands of children, large and small. These dolls were all picked up by Lao Hei from the streets, or found in the grass, thatched pits, and broken temples. Many men and women have a lot of fun but never think about contraception. When the belly is big and the doll is about to be born, I feel panicked. Abandoned babies are very common, and unscrupulous parents have never wanted to take their children back to raise them well. Lao Hei has a bodhisattva heart, and in the spirit of saving the world, he picked up these abandoned babies. Of course, Black's main profession is still that of a doctor. He likes to cut open the body of the doll with a scalpel and attach the limbs of cats, dogs, cows, sheep and other animals. This is an extremely fanatical exploration and research of the future of medicine, and Lao Hei has also learned a very magical human body structure from it. In the old black house, you can often see monsters with human heads and dog bodies. In order to let these poor children find another happy new home, Lao Hei always brought back some rich guests and let them choose whatever they wanted. 30,000 taels of silver for a doll is just the normal price, if the breed is rare, such as pheasants, hares, etc., the price is even higher.

Lao Hei knows very well that these dolls follow him, and they can only eat pickles every day, plus a bowl of thin rice soup that can show the shadow of a person. When the rich and noble buy the dolls, they naturally won't treat them badly in terms of food. In this way, it can be regarded as finding a good place for these children who have no father and no mother. As for how those transformed dolls are played with by their owners, it's none of Lao Tzu's business.

Blackie is a good man, really.

In a word. These people staying in the wing, Li Shengjie can almost be named. Tobe Shangshu is not another world, sitting in the office every day with his fingers digging the butt of a female secretary. The tax revenue of the Great Chu State comes from all sides, and the reason why the gangsters and unscrupulous traders can exist is largely because of the acquiescence of the high-level of the Chu State. This is not that Emperor Shunming's brain was caught by the door, or that he was born with a sense of closeness to the underworld forces. It's that these guys who run abnormal businesses are willing to honestly take out the money and hand it over to the Great Chu treasury. They are well aware. If you can't hand over a lot of wealth, you will lose your value in the Chu State. Anyway, as long as the wrists are tougher and the heart is more ruthless, the wool is always out of the sheep, and the ointment of the common people is scraped with a knife, and the part that is sent out by himself can still be taken back from others.

The capital of Chu is surrounded by four states and is densely populated. Fang City is prosperous. The entire business system is rigged by these people. Among them, there were salt merchants, iron merchants, and seafood merchants, as well as large merchant families who specialized in traveling between the north and the south. After all the calculations, the core strength is about dozens, and the medium-sized caravans are also as many as hundreds. However, these people who are qualified to sit in the wing room belong to the core group that holds important business channels and has a large net worth of wealth.

Li Shengjie closed his eyes. Leaning back, he began to recuperate. In his ears, there was a whisper of Lao Jin and the steward of Jingning Palace, who lowered their voices.

"What the hell did this old Lu do? It's been a long time. Even a hairy kid like Yang Tianhong can't handle it?"

When the old lady of the Lu family asked me to come over, he said that he would be able to see what happened in half an hour at most. It's been more than an hour, and there's still not a bit of movement ahead. ”

"Hehe! Could it be that Yang Tianhong's kid is unwilling to sell, right?"

"Don't sell it? If you don't sell it, what will he take to return the Lu family's silver? That's a full eight million taels of silver. Even if this kind of lawsuit is fought in front of His Majesty, his Yang family is still a "compensation" word. Don't say it's just a Yang Mansion, even if you count his ancestral family Guangping Hou's entire family, he can't afford to pay it at all. I've seen a lot of guys born in this kind of martial arts. Ostensibly, he was an official of the imperial court. In his bones, he is an out-and-out poor bastard. Do you remember the former general Fubo? But so what? The family is still so poor that they can't open the pot, and they can't even afford to hold a banquet when their daughter gets married. In the end, the gate of the house was torn down and sold, and it took a lot of scraping together to marry off his daughter. ”

Close your eyes and listen to others. It feels good.

A smug smile appeared on the corner of Li Shengjie's mouth.

Many years ago, when I first met Lu Jing, I knew that he was a businessman with a lively mind and a good set of ways to make money.

Lu Jing is very cunning. More than a month ago, Yang Tianhong had just led people to Hessian Mountain, and the Lu family released the news that there was a desolate beast betrayed here. The crown prince, King Jingning, Lao Jin, and Lao Hei were all within the scope of the Lu family's invitation. As a businessman, he must have an inextricable relationship with these people. In jargon, this is a network, a circle of interests that takes care of each other.

Lu Jing promised at that time: as long as Yang Tianhong uses the desolate beast to pay off the debt, all the desolate beasts of the Lu family will not be kept, and all of them will be auctioned in this private circle. Of course, the news will not continue to spread, whether you can get it, and how much you really get, depends on everyone's financial resources and friendship with each other.

It's a fairly fair approach. For example, Lao Jin and Lao Hei, if one of them takes a fancy to the wild beast and asks for 50,000 taels, the other will definitely not raise the price and snatch it. After all, in this capital, everyone looks up and doesn't look down, so there is no need to tear your face. Although the auction on the scene loses, he has to give up some of the benefits to the other party in private. That's the benefit of coterie auctions.

To do this, there is an extremely important prerequisite. That is, Yang Tianhong must hand over all the wild beasts he caught to the Lu family.

If the Lu family's price was fair, this matter would not be so troublesome. The problem is that Lu Jing is really greedy. He not only wanted to get the money of the desolate beast, but also thought about marrying Yang Qiurong and getting the immortal elixir from his hands. It is said that you can't have both fish and bear's paws, but Lu Jing just wants to try it. This is not a pipe dream, as long as Yang Tianhong's desolate beasts have no second buyer, or other buyers can't give the price, in the end, these desolate beasts can still only be honestly handed over to Lu Jing.

The market price of a second-grade desolate beast of an ordinary breed is 50,000 taels of silver. The water-avoiding golden-eyed beast that Yang Tianhong caught was a three-grade, and what kind of wild beast would not be obedient if it was big, it was simply a lie made up by Lu Jing to deliberately reduce the price. At regular prices. The basic price of this rare desolate beast is at least 800,000 taels of silver. Not to mention that the total number is as many as nineteen, even if it is only half of this number, it is enough to compensate for the silver money demanded by the Lu family.

The entire market in the capital of Chu State is controlled by these people in the wings. Although there was a missing Meng family among them, Lu Jing was not worried. He believes. As long as everyone joins forces, the Meng family will definitely not dare to be an enemy of this huge group of business interests. can only honestly shrink aside, will not interfere, let alone buy the wild beast in Yang Tianhong's hand at the normal price.

In a word, I said that the water-avoiding golden-eyed beast in your hand can only be sold for 70,000 taels of silver per head, so it is absolutely impossible for it to sell for 70,000 taels and one taels. You can not believe my words, the Lu family does not have the habit of forcing guests to stay. If you Yang Tianhong are absolutely too low and not satisfied, then you can go out and find another buyer.

Anyway. Your Yang family owes me eight million taels of silver. The promised time is almost up, and if it exceeds one day, the interest will be increased according to the principle of rolling interest. In a month at most, the silver of this white flower will become 10 million taels, and then it will increase by double on this basis.

......

In the living room, Lu Jing slowly sipped tea, and his wrinkled face showed an undisguised smug smile.

Yang Tianhong's strength. It really made Lu Jing look sideways. This person's strength is extraordinary, and he actually captured a large number of desolate beasts from the Hessian Mountains. And it is also a rare breed that is cherished. But the more this is the case, the more unwilling Lu Jing is to let go of the Yang family. This kind of person with background and strength should naturally be driven by my Lu family. As long as there is a premise of debt, no matter what the Yang family does in the future, it must get the approval of my Lu family.

Of course, it is impossible to make Yang Tianhong honest and obedient. However, there are many ways to achieve this goal. "Money can make the devil grind" is a famous saying for the ages. Even ghosts are still the same. Not to mention people.

Young people are inexperienced after all, and Lu Jing just used a little trick to put Yang Tianhong in a desperate situation.

At least, that's what it looks like on the surface.

Yang Tianhong looked at Lu Jing coldly, and there were no emotional fluctuations on his calm face. There was silence for a long time. He said lightly: "Six water-avoiding golden-eyed beasts, thirteen Xuantian horses, Old Lady Lu only gave the number of 1.9 million silver, this kind of means of doing business is really admirable." However, Old Lady Lu, do you think your heart is too dark? If you do this kind of thing, you are not afraid that your children and grandchildren will suffer in the future, and the sky will thunder?"

It's clearly a curse, and it's very vicious. Lu Jing's lowered eyelids twitched slightly, and he raised his head with a disapproving look: "Young man, speak reasonably." The old man is just talking about things. Of course you can pay off these beasts. But they can only be sold for that price. If you think the old man is lying to you, you can pull these wild beasts away. Anyway, the capital of Chu State is not covered by my Lu family, and there are many people who want wild beasts. You can ask them how much silver taels they are willing to pay for it? 1,900,000 yuan is still the amount given by my in-laws. Someone else's ...... I'm afraid I won't even give half of the money. ”

Yang Tianhong's expression did not change in the slightest. He seemed to be digesting the meaning of those words. After nearly half a minute, the expression on his face suddenly became very strange, full of ferocity, and his grinning mouth was reminiscent of a hungry wolf preparing to attack its prey.

"Old bastard, do you think I don't know about your shady deeds in private?"

Lu Jing's eyes widened suddenly, Lu Baoye also turned around quickly, the eyes of the father and son were instantly focused on Yang Tianhong, and even the Lu family members who were standing in the hall were shocked by the three words "old mongrel", very angry, and looked at him quite fearfully.

Yang Tianhong suddenly laughed, his body slammed forward, and the whole person jumped to a position less than half a meter away from Lu Jing. He stared at Lu Jing condescendingly, and his mouth erupted into a heart-palpitating "Gegegege" wild laugh.

Lu Baoye shouted repeatedly: "Come on, come on!"

Lu Jing waved his right hand to stop him, his wrinkled eyes stared at Yang Tianhong without fear, although he was a little scared, he didn't admit defeat in his mouth: "What are you panicking about! This is the Lu family, and it is also at the feet of the emperor of the Great Chu Kingdom." I want to see what this guy wants to do when he wants to repent of his marriage and is unwilling to pay compensation?"

"Old bastard, are you embarrassed to say such things?"

Yang Tianhong stretched his forehead forward, his fierce eyes full of cold light. It almost stuck to the sweaty nose of the Lu Jing. He lowered his voice, "Don't think I don't know what you're doing. As long as he joins forces with others, he can control the price of desolate beasts in the entire Chu State market. I'm sure you can do that, and I know that what you just said wasn't intimidating. That's right, I got these wild beasts all the way out of the Hessian mountains, but they weren't worth much silver in the end. If I can't sell it, I'll have to rot in my own hands. Domesticating wild beasts comes at a great cost. They spend a lot of money on the food they eat every day. You know how I feed them for a long time. There are only two paths before me: either you will honestly convert all the desolate beasts into one million and nine hundred thousand taels of silver according to the price you have offered. Either I will leave your Lu Mansion with the desolate beast, and outside, I won't even be able to sell it for a million. ”

Lu Jing felt that Yang Tianhong's body was beating with the idea of wanting to kill. Although he was afraid, Lu Jing beat his spirit and made a calm appearance: "Young man, you think too much. The old man has always been kind, if you hadn't insisted on repenting of your marriage, you wouldn't have to bear a debt of eight million taels of silver. Are you still ......?"

"Silver, huh? I'll go back and collect the silver taels and return them to you. ”

Yang Tianhong suddenly interrupted Lu Jing's words. He said slowly: "There are many ways to get a price on the ground, but what you are using now is the stupidest one. Don't forget, I'm a member of the Guiyuan Sect, and even if the mountains and rivers are exhausted, the master will definitely help in these matters. Don't look at me with that greedy look, I don't like it, and I hate it very much. I will never give you one and a half pills. In half a month at most, I will collect all the money I owe you. ”

After speaking. Yang Tianhong gritted his teeth, stood up straight, and distanced himself from Lu Jing.

This is not the answer that Lu Jing wants.

What is the use of him asking for silver? Compared to eight million silver taels, no matter these desolate beasts or pills in front of him, they are more tempting.

Seeing Yang Tianhong turn around and leave. Lu Jing couldn't help but be a little anxious, and hurriedly chased after him with a cane, and shouted again and again: "Virtuous nephew, we should sit down and discuss this matter carefully." The old man was also angry just now, you must not take it to heart. If you think that 1,900,000 taels of silver is too low. The old man can increase the price, two million taels, what do you think?"

Yang Tianhong walked to the nearest water-avoiding golden-eyed beast, glanced at Lu Jing with contempt, and said lightly: "I, as a person, have always left a chance for you to do things. As I said before, these wild beasts are specifically used to pay off the debts that my Yang family owes you, and the marriage between the two families has been cancelled since then. You're good, you're hungry for profit, and you're thinking more about it when you get benefits. Old bastard, it's also a shame that you can open your mouth, and two million taels of silver will be left for you to press the coffin yourself. Let me tell you, these wild beasts are surnamed Yang, not Lu. ”

As he spoke, Yang Tianhong pulled out his saber with his backhand, and before the Lu family's father and son could react, he saw a silver-white light in the air, and his hand raised and fell, and the neck of the water-avoiding golden-eyed beast as thick as a bucket suddenly broke off, and the head with a single horn rolled to the ground, spurting a stream of thick blood from the neck cavity.

The father and son of the Lu family were completely stunned by this sudden change.

Lu Baoye's eyes widened, his face was full of fear and doubt, and he muttered to himself: "You, what are you doing?"

Lu Jing's old body kept shaking, and he barely managed to maintain his balance by holding on to his crutches. The old man's thinking changed extremely quickly, and in a moment, he had already figured out the before and after things, as well as Yang Tianhong's thoughts at the moment. The indescribable fear quickly sprung up from the deepest part of Lu Jing's heart, and soon occupied the entire brain.

"Don't!

Around, the Lu Mansion family and his subordinates watched blankly, and no one came up to dissuade them, and they didn't know what to say.

Yang Tianhong didn't look at the Lu family father and son who were standing behind him, and shouted at Yang Yuan and other guards not far away: "Do it, kill all these wild beasts for me!"

Yang Yuan's saber had been sharpened before entering the city, it was very sharp, and it had just cut off the neck of the water-avoiding golden-eyed beast, and split the skull of a Xuantian Jun, and the blade was still shiny, without the slightest gap.

A strong stream of blood immediately filled the air, spreading sharply up and down the Lu Mansion.

Lu Jing's old eyes turned red, and countless bloodshots instantly filled his eyes. He threw away his crutches and hugged Yang Tianhong's shoulders from behind, screaming in extreme pain and full of remorse from his mouth: "Stop! Stop! Don't kill, please don't kill again." ”

Yang Tianhong turned sideways and looked at Lu Jing, who was full of ferocity and eyes that were enough to eat people alive, and spat at the ground with disdain: "Old mongrel, these wild beasts can't be sold for a price, instead of wasting food in vain, it is better to slaughter them as soon as possible." Hey, hey, hey, don't worry, that is, if you stain the floor of your house, just let someone wash it well. ”

Lu Jing made an extremely terrifying sound in his throat, he clasped Yang Tianhong's shoulders hard, his nails almost sank into the flesh, and begged bitterly: "Don't, don't kill again." Please, don't kill again. (To be continued.) )
