“Ha, ha, ha… Young friend Jiang… I really am…” King Wen laughed dryly.

I laughed a little, but I really couldn't laugh anymore.

Damn it, I asked you to propose a reward, but you actually proposed a high one, right?

The corners of King Wen's eyes were twitching.

Jiang Bei curled his lips. He was just joking and didn't expect King Wen to really give him his sword.

Moreover, compared to using a sword, he prefers to use a knife more.

It's a pity that although his Tang sword has accompanied him in battles for many years, it is not considered a treasure.

Seeing that Jiang Bei was a little unhappy, even King Wen didn't know what to reward him with.

It’s called a reward, but actually... it’s just a deposit.

Otherwise, how could Jiang Bei be so willing to follow me and agree to break through to the extreme with my help?

Such strong people are all absolutely arrogant!

As for Jiang Bei in front of him, although his words did not reveal any particularly exaggerated arrogance, he could feel it!

And this person is not stupid.

"Lord King Wen, why don't you be more direct?" Jiang Bei said casually.

"Be more direct?" King Wen was visibly stunned.

What do you mean by being direct? If I knew what to give you, would I be so confused and let you come up with it yourself?

Who the hell could have imagined that you would just take my own sword!

This magic sword was given by the late emperor and has been with him for more than a hundred years. They have long had feelings for each other! Well, although it was just his wishful thinking, he always felt that if he left this sword behind, it would be very sad.

Moreover, this sword not only has an extremely important effect on his combat effectiveness, but is also a symbol of his status.

When the sword was unsheathed, everyone knew that it was King Wen!

Jiang Bei looked at him straight.

King Wen felt a little uneasy. He pulled the corner of his mouth and showed an awkward but polite smile, "This man is old... his brain is not as smart as Jiang Xiaoyou's. He didn't understand what Jiang Xiaoyou meant by "directly"."

To be honest, King Wen thought about it for a long time but still couldn't figure out what Jiangbei needed!

In other words, since he came from a sect that was qualified to know about the battle of destiny in advance, what else could he lack?

He doesn't lack treasures, right? Everything he took out can kill the transformed monster! Although it is a monster with a seriously injured body...it should not be underestimated.

Jiang Bei observed King Wen for a while and realized that it was not that the old man did not want to give, but that he really did not know what to give.

After a brief thought, he understood how to deal with it.

"Spiritual coins." Jiang Bei said helplessly.

It's like... if you insist on giving it to me, and I don't need anything, then just give me spirit coins.

At least if you want to buy something, you need to use spirit coins to purchase it directly from major chambers of commerce.

“…”

King Wen was dumbfounded.

"Spirit, spirit coins?" King Wen asked blankly.

If it were a normal reward, spiritual coins would be fine...but this is the merit for killing a big monster!

You just want to withdraw the spirit coins?

Is there any hidden meaning?

But the next moment, King Wen came to his senses. It was obvious... it was precisely because Jiangbei lacked nothing that he put forward a request that was easiest for him to meet!

How could he, the King of Wen and the top leader of Yunzhou, be short of spirit coins? !

Of course that is impossible.

The reason why he made this request was indeed for a different purpose - to ensure that the cooperation between the two parties could start smoothly.

Otherwise, how can others trust you if you can't even come up with a deposit?

I won't make things difficult for you, just pay me the spirit coins.

King Wen was surprised and delighted.

But the next moment, he was conflicted again... Although he had spiritual coins, he also had to use them to maintain the financial expenditures of the provincial government and Yunzhou.

Not to mention far away, just Tiannan City, located on the frontier, sometimes has frictions with the demon tribe. Do you want Yunzhou to be self-sufficient relying on the taxes collected from these people?

That's obviously unrealistic.

Just like this time, the state government is always needed for assistance, either people or money!

Giving King Wen a few hundred thousand spirit coins would not be difficult.

But it will seriously affect the normal operation of the state government for a long time to come.

King Wen was in a dilemma.

If you give too little... it will easily make the other party feel dissatisfied. I am giving you all the spirit coins, and you are still being stingy. How can we cooperate?

So how much is appropriate to give?

Since there is no shortage of spirit coins in Jiangbei, to him, spirit coins are just a number. He has reached the bottleneck period and cannot use them for cultivation.

As for wanting to spend money on having fun?

This kind of talented cultivator should be fully devoted to cultivation, and he just came down from the sect... The air on that mountain is so turbulent that it's like the wind!

Many disciples wish they could practice even in their dreams!

There is even less chance to contact the outside world.

It’s difficult, difficult…

But King Wen was also a smart man. In order to avoid being criticized, he turned the tables.

King Wen smiled and said, "Friend Jiang... Oh no, Brother Jiang! There's no need for us to hide anything!"

"Come on! Say a number!"

Jiang Bei: “?”

Jiang Bei was silent.

Seeing this, King Wen's heart suddenly skipped a beat. He was silent! Why was he silent again?

Could it be that my statement of taking the place of the host made him unhappy? Did he feel that I was not sincere enough?

I swear to God... I really am...

Damn, why is he still frowning? !

King Wen felt like he was about to have a heart attack, but he still forced a smile on his face and waited quietly.

Jiang Bei had no idea how complicated King Wen's psychological activities were at this time.

He was calculating...the purchasing power of spirit coins.

From the time I came to the Taoist sect until now... I have only used spiritual coins once, to purchase the Bai family's mansion.

Judging by worldly prices, if this courtyard were placed in the imperial capital, it would cost at least several hundred million to buy.

And he didn't even use a hundred spirit coins.

As for the others... Gu Shiya's status in the Taoist sect was the daughter of the sect master! And that sect was not small at the time.

But when he left the Taoist sect, he only had a few hundred spirit coins on him...

Obviously, this spiritual coin is extremely precious even in Taoism.

Jiang Bei weighed the pros and cons for a moment and decided to ask for a high price first, and if that didn't work, he could negotiate and bargain with King Wen.

"Ten thousand spirit coins." Jiang Bei said bluntly.
