“Guest, if you buy a lot, this will be a free gift.” Olive Ghost pointed to the Treehouse Ghost that he had captured.
Xia Tianqiong asked, "How much is one of your Treehouse Fruits? How many do you have in total?"
Olive Ghost glanced at Old Liu first, thought for a moment and then spoke, "Five thousand ghost notes per note, I have about one hundred thousand here."
"How much?" Xia Tianqiong's tone was full of surprise.
"Is it expensive...? The price is negotiable, four...three thousand each, that's the lowest price."
Olive suddenly felt a little flustered.
He usually can't sell these things at all, but he heard that a very rich human came to the tribe and bought everything he saw.
So he quickly set up his stall and waited for several days before finally meeting this human.
At this moment, he was worried that asking for too high a price would scare the person away.
Xia Tianqiong was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "Just three thousand each, I'll take them all, as many as you have."
His surprise just now wasn't because of the price, but because of the quantity.
There were over 100,000 of them, which was just enough to accommodate the hundreds of thousands of people in Lin'an City.
When he was being hunted down by Leng Tianpeng, he took all 500,000 surviving residents of Lin'an City into the chessboard world.
Although construction has been expedited during this period, there are too many people and not enough time, so most people still don't have a place to live.
Now, these 100,000 Treehouse Fruits are enough to solve the housing problem for hundreds of thousands of people.
Upon hearing that he wanted them all, the Olive Ghost was completely stunned. "All...all of them? Really?"
Xia Tianqiong laughed and said, "Of course, I want them all. If you're willing to sell yourself, I'll take you too, the price is negotiable."
"I don't sell myself, I only sell Treehouse Fruits, three thousand each. That would require three hundred million ghost money. Do you have that much money?"
"No matter how much you have, I can afford it all."
Xia Tianqiong didn't waste any words. He raised his hand and waved it, and stacks of ghost money poured out like water, piling up on the ground.
Olive Ghost was stunned. Not only him, but even the Tree Ghosts who had set up stalls nearby came over to watch the spectacle.
Their eyes were filled with excitement and greed.
Fortunately, they remained rational and didn't dare to snatch it, nor did they have the strength to do so.
Xia Tianqiong said, "Count them, there are at least 300 million of these ghost money notes, no more, no less."
Startled by these words, Olive Ghost quickly replied, "No need to count, I can sense it."
Before he could finish speaking, he had already transformed back into his original form, which was a tall olive tree, about sixty or seventy meters high, with dense green treehouse fruits hanging from its branches.
These are probably not mature yet!
There is a hole in the middle of the tree trunk, from which reddish-brown tree house fruits fly out and fall on the grass, piling up into a small mountain.
Then a huge suction force came from the tree hole, sucking in all three hundred million ghost money.
Xia Tianqiong also waved his hand, put the Treehouse Fruit into the Mirror Space, and at the same time signed a human-master contract with the Treehouse that had turned into a monster.
This treehouse ghost is indeed very unintelligent; it signed the contract as soon as it was asked to, without saying a word.
The transaction was completed, and Olive Ghost transformed back into human form, his face glowing red, a smile he couldn't suppress.
Xia Tianqiong looked at him and suddenly asked, "How long will it take you to produce a batch of Treehouse Fruits? How many are in a batch?"
"It produces over a thousand fruits every year. What? You want to buy more in the future?"
"Of course, I will come to see you again in the future."
"That's great, I'll save all my treehouse fruits for you."
Olive Ghost grinned from ear to ear, chatted with Xia Tianqiong for a few more minutes, and then hurriedly left.
Next, the other tree spirits who had set up stalls also took the initiative to approach Xia Tianqiong to promote their products.
Unfortunately, there wasn't anything else of value.
After dismissing the other tree spirits, Xia Tianqiong looked at Old Willow and asked, "We're leaving for the Void Spirit Clan tomorrow. Are you going too?"
Old Liu nodded solemnly, a hint of gratitude in his eyes. "Of course I'll go. I've been waiting for this day for a long time."
"Then I wish you a safe return."
Xia Tianqiong took the initiative to shake hands with him, then turned and left.
This is what the other tree spirits saw. In fact, when shaking hands, they stuffed a small piece of mirror shard into Old Willow's palm.
The mirror contains a temporary mirror space created by the Mirror Ghost. The space is very small, only two cubic meters, and contains five hundred taels of ghost gold.
This was the reward promised to Lao Liu. He only needed to break the mirror or wait for the mirror space to disappear, and the Nether Gold inside would fall out.
In addition, during the handshake, Xia Tianqiong used the power of reincarnation to transfer the consciousness of the Infant Tree Demon into his own body.
From now on, we will stop monitoring Lao Liu and give him his freedom.
As soon as the Infant Tree Ghost entered Xia Tianqiong's body, it asked, "Boss, are you really giving him his freedom?"
"I keep my word, of course, provided that the other party is not my enemy."
"I'm relieved to hear that, boss, but aren't you worried he'll report me now that you've taken me back?"
"No, I'm good at judging people."
"But he's not human!"
"Why are you acting like a woman now, hesitating and dawdling!"
"Boss, you use idioms really well."
The two, one human and one ghost, chatted idly as they gradually walked away.
Old Liu watched Xia Tianqiong's departing figure, opened his mouth as if to say something, but then held back.
In his view, this human being is intelligent, shrewd, good at planning, powerful, trustworthy, and, most importantly, extremely wealthy.
If you follow this kind of person, your future might be very bright.
There were a few moments when he felt an urge to follow that person.
But after thinking about it carefully, I realized it wouldn't work.
He also had to fight to wash away the humiliation of the Tree Demon Clan, a long-cherished wish that he could not abandon halfway.
...
Five days later, in the early morning.
