Chapter 2791: Preparing to Trick People
At around five in the evening, Lu Xiaoxiao woke up and left the space. Seeing that it had darkened outside the room, she changed her clothes, opened the door and walked out of the room.
The ghost old man came out of the kitchen and saw Lu Xiaoxiao coming out of the room. He said to Lu Xiaoxiao, "Master Xiao, dinner is ready. You can go to the living room to eat dinner."
"Have you eaten yet?"
"not yet."
"Then let's go together. I just happen to have something to ask you."
"good."
When Lu Xiaoxiao came to the living room, she saw Zhang Xu already sitting at the dining table, so she asked him, "Didn't you have a rest this afternoon?"
"No."
"Aren't you sleepy? Aren't you tired?"
"Um."
"Okay, you are strong, please help me get a bowl of rice, I am fine."
"Okay." After Zhang Xu finished speaking, he picked up the bowl and served the little girl rice.
Half an hour later, Lu Xiaoxiao was full. She took a sip of the water Zhang Xu poured for her and said to the ghost old man, "Tell me, what's going on with that group of people?"
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, the ghost old man moved his mouth, and finally sighed and said: "That group of people are from the underground black market in Yun Province. I don't know how they knew that I opened a purple energy stone, and they sent people to my house every day to buy purple energy stones.
At first they were quite polite, but the price they offered was too low. Plus, purple energy stones are so rare, there was no way I could sell them to them, so I rejected them outright.
When the group of people saw that I rejected them, their attitude changed immediately and they started threatening me to hand over the energy stone.
Seeing how arrogant they were, I couldn't control my temper, so I just beat up that group of people.
But what I didn't expect was that the leader of that group of people was a powerful character, his ancient martial arts level was comparable to mine, and he had many powerful people under him. We fought him several times and suffered at his hands, so I had to invite you here."
After listening to the old man's words, Lu Xiaoxiao understood what was going on, so she said to him, "It's not your fault. A powerful dragon cannot defeat a local snake. Our power in Yun Province is too weak, so it's normal that you can't beat them."
"I understand this, but we can't keep being bullied by them. We must find a way to control them, otherwise we may not be able to save the two mines in Kake Village."
When Lu Xiaoxiao heard what the old man said, a light bulb went off in her head, and a strange smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"Old man, in the next few days, help me deal with those people and tell them that I intend to sell the two mines."
"Uncle Xiao, you are not really going to sell those two mines, are you?" The old man stood up excitedly and asked Lu Xiaoxiao.
"Of course it's true. Those two mines have been mined almost to the limit. Even if they are mined again, they won't be mined for long. So we might as well take the opportunity to make some money and then buy two new mines."
After hearing what Lu Xiaoxiao said, the old man guessed what Lu Xiaoxiao was going to do. He suddenly felt relieved after being depressed for several months. So he patted his chest and assured Lu Xiaoxiao: "Don't worry, Master Xiao, I will definitely do everything you asked me to do beautifully."
After Lu Xiaoxiao arranged the matter for the ghost old man, she asked Zhang Xu: "Zhang Xu, are you free tonight? I'll take you to a nice place."
"Where are you going?"
"You'll know when the time comes."
"good."
