Chapter 164 The two caravans ran fast! "Thank you!" Ye Lu was stunned...
"Thank you!" Ye Lu was stunned for a moment, but soon realized that this was Zhu Hui's good intention. Not wanting him to suffer any loss, he kept this kindness in mind and replied very seriously.
"No, no." Zhu Hui waved his hands repeatedly, indicating that it's okay to worry. Of course, the smug smile on his face seemed insincere.
More than that?
After Zhu Hui gave the Qingyue Pear to the leader, he glanced at the colorful leader. Only the two of them knew the provocation in his eyes.
Zhu Hui's meaning was very clear. He brought Qingyue pears. Banlan, what did you bring? Didn't you always follow me before? Why don't you follow me now?
The colorful leader smiled slightly, and did not force an argument with Zhu Hui. He was too lazy to argue. He looked at Ye Lu, chuckled, and said, "I also brought something here this time, Lord Chongshan."
After saying that, the colorful leader handed Ye Lu a wooden box.
At first glance, the wooden box looked similar to the one Zhu Hui handed over. The appearance and color were very similar. The only difference might be the special patterns on the corners of the wooden box. One was a faint blood color, while the other was colorful and revealed a dangerous look like a poisonous insect.
Ye Lu took the wooden box doubtfully, and then opened it at the signal of the colorful leader.
When the wooden box was opened, three pine cones about the size of a palm were seen in the box, all of which were a pale white color like jade.
As soon as Ye Lu opened it, he felt an aura of Qingyou level close to Xueyuan level.
The breath is a bit weird, full of mysterious feeling.
Ye Lu raised his eyebrows. He felt a little surprised. He couldn't believe this breath. He lowered his head to take a look at the strange food in the wooden box.
Zhu Hui took a quick glance at the side and immediately recognized the strange food in the wooden box.
"Jade Pine?" Zhu Hui turned around and looked at Banlan in surprise, and said, "You actually found this thing. Those old monks actually sold it to you?"
The colorful leader was not concerned about the surprise of the red leader. On the contrary, he was not in a hurry. He patted his robe and then slowly said, "This jade pine will only increase the power of the monster. If they don't trade it to me, who else can they trade it to?"
"Even tricksters can't afford it."
"They? This group of monks still need to practice." The colorful leader smiled slightly when he said the last sentence.
Zhu Hui, however, did not believe Ban Lan's words at all. He sneered and said, "You must have done something in secret. Otherwise, these old monks would sell it to anyone else, but not to you. At the very least, those strange people who want to break through need to find some strange food, and they all need Yusong's."
"Forget it. If you don't want to tell me, I won't ask."
"Let me make it clear first, you are not allowed to use those methods on my caravan. If I find out and there's a fight, don't blame me for calling for help." Zhu Hui was a little afraid of Banlan's methods. After a pause, he greeted her in advance in a very straightforward manner.
Anyway, Zhu Hui felt that his background was very famous, and most merchants would not want to offend him. It would be fine if there was normal competition among caravans, but if anyone dared to use any illegal means, then don't blame him for being ruthless.
The colorful leader shrugged, agreeing with what he said.
Zhu Hui was relieved when he saw Banlan's expression. He then looked at Lord Chongshan who was puzzled and patiently explained: "This jade pine nut is not as bad as Banlan said."
"Compared to other ghost foods, its effect is indeed somewhat ordinary. Most ghost warriors will not spend a lot of money to buy it." Zhu Hui said helplessly: "The jade pine nut has only one effect, which is to replenish a large amount of ghost power in a short period of time."
"Of course, if you can't digest it all at once, these strange powers will stay in your body and continue to replenish the strange powers you consume until all the strange powers you swallowed are gone."
"The latter function is even more rare. Many guilds going to the battlefield will replenish some. If a fight breaks out, it can at least save lives."
"Banlan must have seen that Lord Chongshan was about to break through and would need a lot of strange power, so he went out of his way to look for you."
When Zhu Hui explained the function of the jade pine nuts, Ye Lu instantly understood the good intentions of the white-haired leader.
"Thank you." Ye Lu also thanked Banlan solemnly. One portion was a jade pine nut, and there were three portions in the wooden box. This shows that Banlan not only takes his affairs to heart, but also keeps the ghost scholar and the playful man in mind. This is not something that can be summarized by the word "careful".
Banlan shook her head and said with a smile: "It's okay."
"These three pieces of jade pine nut's mysterious beads will also be deducted from the payment for the Goucha fruit." Banlan also added a special sentence.
This is almost like Banlan taking the initiative to help.
"good!"
"...Tsk!" Zhu Hui felt a toothache when he saw his rich man's attitude become better towards Banlan, and he even made a "tsk" sound on purpose.
Ye Lu now understood why the stone magician, when telling him stories, emphasized that the caravans went up the mountain at different times when talking about the lords selling or exchanging strange food. Originally, Ye Lu thought that in addition to competition, there were also personal grudges among the caravans, and even the price of strange food.
After all, different caravans may offer completely different prices.
When Ye Lu really faced it, he knew that it might be that the lord's hospitality ability was not enough.
Zhu Hui and Ban Lan are brothers from the same village, but with different bloodlines. Normally, if they really encounter problems, the two of them will give in. But in such a short period of time, they are still being sarcastic and fighting with each other. I can't believe it would be any other businessman.
Ye Lu suspected that Banlan and Zhu Hui could make each other bleed.
"Chief Zhu Hui, we can actually talk about the agreement we made before now." Ye Lu felt helpless for a moment. He knew that Banlan and Zhu Hui were not really mortal enemies. The merchants in Shizhu Village also had the same character when facing their own people. As long as they could not kill them, they would do whatever they wanted.
Zhu Hui didn't react at first, and was stunned for a moment when he heard Ye Lu's words.
What agreement?
Soon Zhu Hui thought of the previous agreement. He seemed to have agreed with Lord Chongshan on the share of the next strange plant, and it would be best to let him choose first.
"Lord Chongshan?, have you found a new strange plant?" Zhu Hui was so happy that he couldn't help but smile.
"I was lucky. I once found a wounded golden orange tree. It had dropped from the Blood Grudge level to the Green Ghost level due to the injury. Later, due to some reasons, I finally raised it back to the Blood Grudge level. I just planted it not long ago." Ye Lu briefly introduced the situation of the golden orange.
Of course, there was no mention of how he restored the golden tangerine.
Ye Lu didn't really want others to know Qingsong's abilities, he just wanted them to know that Qingsong's level was high enough.
"That's fine!" Zhu Hui had no intention of asking any further questions. When he heard Ye Lu's words, he smiled even more happily and couldn't help but walk forward to continue talking to Ye Lu.
Zhu Hui hadn't taken a few steps when he suddenly felt someone pulling him from behind. He subconsciously turned around and saw Banlan's smiling face.
“……”What bad luck.
Zhu Hui said nothing else and just curled his lips.
"Just the share of this golden orange, Lord Chongshan, how are you going to divide it?" Zhu Hui paused, but still couldn't help asking.
A hint of surprise flashed in Ye Lu's eyes. Zhu Hui was unexpectedly easy to talk to this time and did not intend to keep it all for himself. In the past, if Zhu Hui saw a new strange plant appearing here, his first reaction would be to buy it all.
