Chapter 106 Fair Dealing, To Each According to His Needs
The bearded guest entertained Chen Yi and the other three at a banquet on his flagship, and asked Chen Yi about his intentions at the banquet.
Chen Yi put down the wine glass and said, "Before explaining the intention, I have to ask Zhang Mengzhu a word." Your alliance is so active this time, but it is for the sake of the Xuanli fire in the crater?"
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere at the banquet immediately cooled down, and many sea thief leaders under the bearded guest had already glared at Chen Yi and the three of them, but they did not dare to attack immediately because of the prestige of the alliance leader.
The bearded guest looked as usual, put down the wine glass in his hand and smiled, "That's true." Since the plot is hopeless, Zhang has no choice but to be my pirate head with peace of mind. It's just that recently, I feel that my flagship is not very effective, and some of them are not worthy of Zhang's identity, so I want to rebuild a better warship. I happened to learn that there was an ancient beast here, 'Xuanli Huoqiu', so I led my sons and daughters to hunt this beast and use its scales, bones, and spirit as materials for my new ship!"
Chen Yi applauded and smiled: "Master Zhang is so courageous, in this way, I want to talk about cooperation with your league." ”
The bearded man asked, "How to cooperate?"
Chen Yi said: "It's not a secret, there is also a 'chalcedony purple dragon mushroom' growing in the crater, but this time it is for this thing. ”
"Chalcedony Purple Dragon Mushroom, could it be that Jin Gongzi actually wants to refine the 'Purple Dragon Life Continuation Pill'?" the bearded guest looked a little eager in addition to surprise.
Chen Yi nodded and said: "In order to prolong the life of the elders, I asked the 'Little Medicine King' Sun Simiao for the pill recipe of the 'Purple Dragon Life Renewal Pill', and I came to the East China Sea to search for the twelve elixirs contained in the pill. ”
The bearded guest got up and bowed his hand to Chen Yi and said, "I already understand what Jin Gongzi said about cooperation, and I can deal with this matter now." You and I will join forces to get rid of the Xuanli Huoqiu, and afterwards the Huoqi will be mine, and the elixir will be yours. But Zhang also has a reluctant request, when the son refines the pill, can he see a pill? Of course, Zhang will not take advantage of you in vain. You can list the other eleven auxiliary medicines needed for alchemy, and I will collect them in the shortest possible time. ”
Sun Wukong sneered on the side: "My master has collected all the eleven kinds of auxiliary medicines, but he can't use you to contribute." ”
The bearded guest was stunned for a moment, and immediately thought that the other party must have made a great gain at the just-concluded gathering of monks on the island of Wuzheng, so he turned his head to look at Chen Yi, hoping that he could give him an answer.
Chen Yi was silent, according to the Danfang record of "Purple Dragon Life Continuation Pill", if the materials are good and the refining method is good, ten to fifteen pills can be produced in one furnace. It seems like a lot, but in addition to the Dou family, who is in urgent need of pills to prolong his life, other relatives and friends can also use it to prolong his life. Each pill is equivalent to the 30-year lifespan of his relatives and friends. After a battle, he and the bearded customer were considered to be unable to fight or make a deal, but after all, this friendship was not deep enough for him to give away a pill for nothing.
The bearded guest is rough on the surface, but he can subdue all kinds of pirates in his hands, and he has his own hilly city in his chest, and he can figure out the joints in an instant. At this moment, Chen Yi offered to give away the pill for free, and he would only insist on refusing, after all, the favor owed is the most difficult to repay.
He thought about it for a while, and after weighing it in his heart, he said again: "Since this is the case, Zhang will change the conditions." After we join forces to get rid of that Xuanli Fire Fly, the elixir will still belong to you, and in addition, you can also take one percent of the materials decomposed from the Fire Dragon, how about exchanging it for an elixir?"
A smile appeared on Chen Yi's face, and he raised his glass and said, "The deal, a word is decided!"
The bearded guest laughed and raised his glass to greet him: "A word is a certainty!"
At that moment, the two of them drank the wine in their cups together.
After the cooperation was said, the atmosphere at the banquet eased again, and the guests and hosts were extremely happy.
The bearded guest instructed someone to arrange for Chen Yi and the three of them to rest in the guest room on the ship.
Waiting for Chen Yi and the others to leave, one of the bearded guest's grim-looking subordinates came over and said, "Alliance leader, what we have always done is a business with no capital, why do we want to talk about any cooperation with that hairy boy." Why don't you let your subordinates touch them at night and capture them, torture them for what kind of elixir, and then sink into the sea and destroy the corpses, won't all the benefits be ours?"
The bearded guest gave him a blank look, and said angrily: "Don't you think about it with your head before you speak? If people don't have some confidence, how dare they come to talk about cooperation? Besides, who do you think of me and Zhang Zhongjian? If you don't make a decision, you will naturally use all means to do everything; but once you say it, how can you have a reason to do it behind your back!"
The man's face was full of shame at his questioning, and he retreated without a word.
"Hehe, what a bearded guest, he really has a bit of the spirit of the king of pirates!"
Just when the pirates in the hall looked at me and were speechless, a laugh suddenly sounded. All the pirates are old characters, and they will unconsciously pay attention to the people they have seen and the voices they have heard, and at the same time recognize that this is clearly the voice of the young man in white called Sun Wukong.
"Where are the people?"
Everyone looked around in shock and anger, but they heard the Monkey King laugh again:
"You don't have to look for it, my grandson is right in front of you!"
Before the words fell, he saw a large wine jar on a table swaying and rolling down, dripping on the ground, and turning into the image of a young man in white in front of everyone's eyes.
After Sun Wukong appeared, he looked around, and said with a smile: "Master Fang Cai drank a few more glasses of wine, and forgot to say goodbye to you when he left, so he specially sent my old grandson to tell everyone about his guilt - the etiquette is not good, and I still beg for forgiveness!"
Mo said that among the pirate leaders, even the bearded man and the few monks he recruited, none of them had ever seen such a magical illusion transformation technique, and they were all stunned for a while.
After a long time, the bearded guest came back to his senses, got up and arched his hand: "Little brother is a good method, this joke is a little interesting, and it is really a famous teacher and apprentice." Please tell the commander on behalf of Zhang, the sea conditions are poor, if there is any inconsiderate hospitality, please bear with me. ”
The two of them have another deep meaning in their polite words: Sun Wukong used this change of hand to warn everyone that although his master and apprentice were in a guest place, they were by no means fat sheep to be slaughtered, and then apologized under the pretext of making a pretext, which saved the other party's face;
Sun Wukong also smiled politely and said: "It's easy to say, Lao Sun will say goodbye, you can do it yourself!"
Before he could finish speaking, he twisted himself in place and disappeared into thin air in front of everyone's eyes.
