Chapter 293 The Price of Blood Jujubes A dark shadow fell on Zhu Hui and the others...
A black shadow fell in front of Zhu Hui and others.
The black figure had a pale face and a beard, was tall and very thin, and had long eyes with slightly upturned corners. He jumped down from the cliff without a trace of worldly airs.
It is none other than the Lord of Guihuai Mountain—Guihuai Lord.
It is difficult for people who have actually seen the Ghost Locust Lord to associate him with the word Ghost Locust, because not only does he not have a trace of ghostly aura, but there is also an indescribable ethereal air all over his body, making him look like an immortal.
Every time Zhu Hui saw Lord Guihuai, he couldn't help but praise this old man for his good temperament. It was estimated that when Guihuai walked with those evil gods, people who were not in the know could not tell who was the real god.
"Qi Ji said you have something to talk to me about?" This was the first sentence that Guihuai Mountain Master said when he saw Zhu Hui after he landed on the ground. His eyelids drooped when he looked at Zhu Hui.
"........" Zhu Hui, the only problem is that this immortal has a bad temper and is very irritable.
Zhu Hui took a deep breath and swallowed back the sarcastic anger that was about to burst out of him, and warned himself in his heart that he really had something to ask Lord Guihuai this time, and he couldn't let his temper ruin the matter.
After calming down for a moment, Zhu Hui finally spoke up, "You came down from the cliff this time just to scare people?"
"Nonsense." Lord Gui Huai snorted coldly, adjusted his clothes, turned around, and the corner of his long robe with wide sleeves almost brushed Zhu Hui's face. After doing all this, Lord Gui Huai said lightly: "This is called a coincidence."
"I sensed your arrival, so I came down to find you."
Zhu Hui laughed and said, "It's up to you whether I believe you or not."
Dead old man.
Did you see your disciple's face when you said this? His face was almost drooping. How dare you say this?
However, Zhu Hui knew that he came here to do business and to ask for help, so he naturally would not tell the truth.
The Ghost Sophora Lord sat on a huge black stone chair under the stone wall. He looked at the Zhuhui people and asked calmly, "Tell me, what's going on?"
Zhu Hui coughed a few times. He almost couldn't help but start to scold others for a moment. Fortunately, Lord Guihuai's words stopped him from resigning. Zhu Hui thought of Lord Chongshan's request, and he decisively raised a smile on his face again.
"Guihuai, are there any blood jujubes left?" Zhu Hui said in a good tone.
Guihuai is just simple-minded? He wanted to piss off Zhu Hui, the bastard who had been raging in Guihuai Mountain last time, but he couldn't win the argument with this guy. How could he, a farmer, compete with a traveling merchant in verbal battles? After they finished talking, he was so angry that he couldn't hit him.
After you beat the blood vampire, he will automatically come to your door to demand payment. If you beat the younger one, the older one will come. It's so annoying.
During that period, Gui Huai was annoyed when he heard about the Zhuhui Caravan.
Although Gui Huai didn't know why Zhu Hui was in such a good mood when he came to Gui Huai Mountain this time, and he had been sarcastic to him several times but Zhu Hui didn't retort, Gui Huai was still wondering in his heart, but when he heard Zhu Hui's words, he understood everything in an instant.
Gui Huai was so angry that he laughed instantly. What a good boy, he was specifically eyeing the best and best things in Gui Huai Mountain.
"Why do you want the blood dates?" Gui Huai asked in confusion. He remembered that Zhu Hui's bloodline should not need catalysis. If it really needed catalysis, the blood ghost would have come to replace it long ago. Since it's not for Zhu Hui?———
When the Ghost Locust Lord thought of this, he frowned and said, "Yes, yes, but Zhu Hui, you should know the rules. There are also quotas for these blood jujubes in Ghost Locust Mountain. Apart from the quota given to your caravan, you can exchange it with the Ghost Pearl. If you want to sell it to others, you have to give us all a price that satisfies us."
"Will the strange bead work?" Zhu Hui asked tentatively.
The smile on Gui Huai's face disappeared instantly. He looked at Zhu Hui expressionlessly, as if he would kick the person out if he was not satisfied with what Zhu Hui was going to say next.
It still doesn't work, Zhu Hui sighed in his heart, and understood that Lord Guihuai would never give Lord Chongshan the same price as the caravan.
In fact, it is easy to understand if you think about it. After all, although part of the quota for Zhu Hui's caravan can be paid with ghost beads, the bulk of it is still paid by Shi Zhu Village. Just from what Zhu Hui knows, many caravans have paid a lot of top-level ghost food to Gui Huai Mountain.
Zhu Hui couldn't help but sigh and said, "Do you want the laurel seeds?"
"Five." Gui Huai said decisively, "I want five portions of each batch of laurel seeds. When the laurel trees are upgraded in level, the number of quotas can be reduced."
"Impossible. There are only a few shares that a laurel tree can produce in each batch. If you ask for only a small half of it, my caravan will not be able to continue." Zhu Hui refused flatly. Really? No, he had no use for the laurel tree. It was impossible for him to squeeze out so many shares. What a joke. If he really squeezed out so many shares, his caravan would not be able to survive.
Gui Huai didn't explain too much, just reminded: "The black locust seeds can be divided into two portions, so can't my blood jujubes? Don't forget, the black locust seeds are not considered a complete ghost food, and their level is only around Qingyou level. You should know whether the level and ghost power of the blood jujubes are worth such a price."
Zhu Hui smiled bitterly. He was helpless because he knew the blood jujube too well.
Lord Guihuai spoke very frankly, but what he said was true. The price offered by Lord Guihuai was slightly higher, but it was definitely worth it. Lord Guihuai even gave a very fair price considering the familiarity between the two parties. If it was another caravan, the price would definitely be higher than this.
Zhu Hui's bitter smile deepened, and he said helplessly: "It's really not possible. I can't give you so much. If I really give you, my uncle will be the first one to not forgive me." Many caravans of the Blood Poison lineage have to use laurel seeds to knock on the doors of those top forces.
"That's it." Lord Guihuai was also very decisive. He couldn't possibly exchange for other strange foods.
Zhu Hui held his forehead with his hand. He knew that this old man was shrewd, but he was too shrewd. As soon as he saw that he couldn't get what he wanted, he decisively withdrew and never gave people time to make friends.
Zhu Hui took a deep breath, exhaled slowly, and asked, "Do you know He Cun Zhongshan?"
"The force of the Laurel Seed?" Gui Huai said, "Recently, there is the Qingxin Peach, a fairly famous strange food? Do you want to exchange it?"
Guihuai Mountain is located in a remote area, but the news is not remote. We soon found out what Zhu Hui was talking about.
Gui Huai knew what Zhu Hui wanted to say, so he shook his head and said, "No, Qingxin Peach won't work either. You and I both know that Qingxin Peach is not a Weird Item. Even if it may become a Weird Item in the future, that is in the future. It may not be able to become a Blood Grudge level now. It is not a Companion Weird Plant. Weird Item and non-Weird Item have two different prices."
"If the Qingxin Peach is not a strange food for us, then it is of little use to us."
"If you really want to exchange, I can use Black Mist Jujube." Gui Huai suggested. These old guys couldn't use it, and there were still a few guys on the mountain who wanted to break through. It would be fine to exchange them for some Qingxin Peaches. As for using Blood Jujube? No, Lord Gui Huai had already made up his mind. If Zhu Hui continued to be weird, he would just take action. Anyway, he had a reason to take action this time.
"I want the strange food of the Qingming consciousness? Is that how it is used?" Zhu Hui sneered. He was stupid to exchange the Qingxin peach for the Black Mist Jujube. This old man had bad intentions.
"What I want to talk about is not the Qingxin Peach." Zhu Hui explained. He only had one Qingxin Peach in his hand. As for the Golden Tangerine, it was not ripe yet, so Zhu Hui could not take it out. What Zhu Hui wanted to take was the Qingsong Nut. He coughed lightly, took out a wooden box from his arms, and quietly handed it to the Ghost Sophora Lord at the top.
"What do you think of this weird food?"
"What mysterious food has you kept so secret?" The Ghost Locust Lord wondered why Zhu Hui was so mysterious. He took the wooden box from Zhu Hui with suspicion. As soon as he opened it, the Ghost Locust Lord saw pine nuts filled with wood spirit energy inside the box.
The Ghost Sophora Lord opened his eyes suddenly, and immediately brought the wooden box to his face, saying, "Strange food? Or is it a gifted type of strange food?"
"How can it be Qingyou level?" Lord Guihuai sniffed it up and down, as if he was sure of something, then he withdrew his hand, closed the wooden box, and said: "No, that's not right, it just looks like a strange food, and it's still one step away from being a strange food."
"Zhu Hui, I guessed correctly. This is the Qingsongzi that was famous in Qiang City back then. There was a rumor at the time that the share of Qingsongzi was in your hands. Many people didn't believe it. No one would have thought that the Qingsongzi was really in your hands." Lord Guihuai snorted coldly.
"Whose idea was it? You or someone else?" Gui Huai Lord touched his chin in confusion. This didn't seem like the style of the merchants from Shi Zhu Village. "Could it be an accident? And then it was you merchants from Shi Zhu Village who cleaned it up? Did your uncle also help?"
"Since you know it clearly, why are you asking?" Zhu Hui didn't even blink, as if the person that Lord Guihuai was pulling was not him.
"Exchange? One for one. This is not a long-term business. You know the price of this weird food. The important thing is that it is a bit like weird but not weird. It is just right for young children." Compared with laurel seeds, green pine nuts are more suitable for the young children in Guihuai Mountain.
"Not enough." Lord Gui Huai shook his head and said, "The price is too low. Even if it looks like it, it is not a Weird Food."
"I want a long-term share." Lord Ghost Sophora said, "Or you can wait until this weird plant reaches the Blood Grudge level and becomes a true weird food and then come and exchange it. I will open my door and welcome you."
"Three copies, one for each batch, no more." Zhu Hui bluntly rejected the exorbitant price asked by Lord Guihuai, and his words were very firm.
Zhu Hui saw clearly that even though Lord Guihuai said he would not give in, his hand was still tightly holding the wooden box, as if he was not going to let go at all.
"It takes nearly fifty years for green pines to bloom and bear fruit, and there are only three in a batch. I can't give you all of them. There is only one at most in a batch. Wait 150 years, or you can wait until it reaches the true blood grudge level, and then exchange one for another." Zhu Hui gave the price in his heart.
Lord Guihuai hesitated for a moment, stroking the wooden box in his hand.
I decided to agree.
He had already missed the laurel seeds, so there was no way he would miss the pine seeds again.
"Yes!" said Lord Guihuai.
When Zhu Hui heard this, he felt relieved. He finally got the last piece of strange food he promised to Lord Chongshan.
What's important? After finishing the work, Zhu Hui felt relaxed and started to smile.
"If you really want a long-term share of the green pine seeds, it's not impossible to negotiate. Just bring out a few lots of Sophora japonica and we can talk about the share of the green pine seeds." Anyway, you have to pay for the strange food business. What they are talking about is the share. It doesn't matter who you sell it to, but Sophora japonica is hard to come by.
The Ghost Locust Lord only had one sentence, which was very clear and crisp: "Get lost!"
