Chapter Twenty-Six: High Price Peddling
"Hmm, why are you asking so much?" But although the fish was hooked, Zhou Yi didn't plan to close the rod in a hurry.
"Hehe, don't hide it, uncle, this storage bag on your waist is the villain's belongings. Although Uncle gave me three centennial elixirs just now, these three centennial elixirs are the common elixirs in this Apocalypse Continent, although the hundred-year ones are rare, but in terms of price, they are not enough to exchange for a storage bag......"
"Well, in that case, I'll return the bag to you. As for your lord, it doesn't matter if you don't see it below!" Zhou Yi said, and actually stretched out his hand to his waist!
Seeing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly said something to stop him: "I'm joking with my uncle, don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously!"
"Don't take it seriously, you are a child's play when I am a big deal?!"
Seeing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly apologized: "You also know that I am just a small shopkeeper, and my cultivation is not as good as that of you, uncle...... Hey, all the money I earned was given to my lord, and the family barely made ends meet, if the lord found out, I sold this storage bag to your uncle at such a low price......"
"Oh, since you are a businessman, then let's follow the rules of your businessmen!" Zhou Yi smiled secretly in his heart when he heard this, and said: "My news is the most accurate news about Xianyuan, if it is handled properly, I am afraid that you can catch that Xianyuan!
"This ...... The matter of immortal fate, after all, is a matter of different opinions...... I have almost no property, and I can barely come up with two hundred taels of silver......" The shopkeeper heard that there was an opportunity, and immediately said: "But the uncle also knows that there are many things about the fairy fate, if the news is false, then the villain's money will be wasted......"
"Since you don't believe it, why do you ask me?" Zhou Yi snorted coldly when he heard this: "Since I dare to go with you to see your lord, it means that my news must be true, since it is true news, do you think you can buy it for just two hundred taels of silver?"
"This ......"
The shopkeeper hesitated when he heard this, indeed, what Zhou Yi said was true, if it was true news, don't say two hundred taels, even if it was two hundred taels of gold, Zhou Yi would not be willing to say it! You know, the big financier of Anjiang City has offered a bounty of one thousand taels! If he learns the news in advance, he will come to Xianyuan City at that time, and with a little packaging, he will sell ten taels of silver per person, no, twenty taels of silver, then someone will buy it! When the time comes, he will go to the Zhou family and the Mu family to lobby again, and at that time, he may be able to sell a thousand taels of silver at a high price!
Thinking of this, the shopkeeper gritted his teeth at the moment, his heart was crossed, and he said: "Uncle, don't hide it, the whole body belongings add up to only three hundred and fifty taels, if the uncle doesn't dislike it, can you reveal one or two of the news of Xianyuan?"
"Three hundred and fifty taels of silver, you want to buy the news of Xianyuan?do you think the news of Xianyuan is worth three taels of spirit stones?!" Zhou Yi was very dissatisfied when he heard this.
"But there are only these three hundred and fifty taels, which is more, not a cent!" The shopkeeper looked at Zhou Yi embarrassedly, with a pitiful look on his face.
"That's it, look at your pitiful, three hundred taels, sell a question about immortal fate. Zhou Yi snickered in his heart when he saw this.
"This ......" The shopkeeper hesitated when he heard this, and exchanged three hundred taels for a question about immortal fate, this price is a bit high!
"Why? disagree?
"Don't, don't, I ask!"
"Give the money first!"
The shopkeeper was heartbroken, threw his money bag to Zhou Yi, and then asked, "Is Xianyuan still in Demon Beast Mountain?"
"It's gone. Zhou Yi took the money bag and weighed it and said.
"Where did you go?" asked the shopkeeper.
"If you want to ask a second question, three hundred taels more!"
"Uncle, I really don't have any money!"
"You can shut up if you don't have money. Zhou Yi's legs exerted force as he spoke, and the horse was in pain, neighed at the moment, and quickly moved forward.
"Uncle, it's only two hundred taels under it...... shopkeeper chased after him, turned all his pockets out, and showed that he really didn't have half a penny.
"Two hundred taels, that's it, tell you!" Zhou Yi smiled, took the money bag and said: "That immortal yuan left three days ago, direction, northwest!"
"Really?!"
"This is the third question, but I will also send you the answer for free, it is true!" Zhou Yi said: "Okay, I am also tired, so I will sleep, you don't say more, at dawn, I will wake up naturally." ”
"Uncle, this horse is galloping, not to mention the speed, and the road is not smooth, you ...... How do you sleep?" Hearing Zhou Yi say that he was going to sleep, the shopkeeper couldn't help but be surprised.
"You don't have to worry about it, the mountain people have their own tricks. Zhou Yi said, and actually lay directly on the horse's back and fell asleep!
In fact, Zhou Yi's clever plan is not a clever plan, but Gu Nianzhen secretly used his aura, together with this horse divine thought, and then under coercion and temptation, he told Zhou Yi that this method was feasible, although Zhou Yi was trembling at first, but along the way, this horse picked a flat place to go, which made Zhou Yi quite relieved and assured.
The shopkeeper on the side was stunned when he saw this scene. Although he knew that Zhou Yi's cultivation surpassed him, he could sleep on this galloping horse, and he would definitely not be able to cultivate to the Martial King. Now that he sees that Zhou Yi is familiar with this method, the shopkeeper does not dare to despise Zhou Yi.
There was nothing to say at night, and as soon as it was dawn the next day, Zhou Yi woke up and couldn't help but laugh when he saw the dark circles under the owner's eyes. Seeing Zhou Yi wake up, the shopkeeper took out the dry food he had prepared long ago and threw it to Zhou Yi, and the two ate breakfast on horseback.
At noon, the weather was extremely hot, Zhou Yi and the shopkeeper took a rest by the river, and the horses also got time to rest, and went to the river to wash, and the heat passed a little, and the two went on the road again.
However, this made Zhou Yi miserable, because Gu Nianzhen repeatedly emphasized that Zhou Yi could not show his true face, so no matter how hot it was, Zhou Yi could not remove the hat, let alone apply river water to his face, which made Zhou Yi unbearable, watching the shopkeeper splash the clear river water on his face one by one, Zhou Yi hated to kick him down the river!
Fortunately, Anjiang City is a big city, with a radius of more than 100 miles and wide official roads, and near evening, Zhou Yi and the shopkeeper saw the majestic Anjiang City from afar!
"Uncle, this place is only more than ten miles away from Anjiang City, let's hurry up, we will definitely be able to arrive in front of the lantern." We have just released the carrier pigeon to inform the lord that tonight the lord will be the east, please have a full meal, as for the business, tomorrow the uncle can talk to my lord in detail. The next person is soft-spoken, and he has to return it tonight. ”
Hearing the words of the shopkeeper, Zhou Yi couldn't help but curse in his heart: Old fox!
