Chapter 67 I will go back to the village myself!! Ye Lu stared at Zhu Hui...
Ye Lu stared at Zhu Hui.
Zhu Hui's smile deepened. He knew that his judgment would not be wrong. Lord Ye Lu was indeed smart.
Zhu Hui coughed lightly and said, "Do you want Laurel Tree to advance to the Qingyou level?"
"Of course!" Ye Lu did not hide his ambition. He smiled and said, "As a companion plant, the laurel tree has the potential, doesn't it? Chief Zhu Hui, you have always had good connections, and I always agree with your recommendations."
The strange spiritual soil last time was really good. Yuegui really took root and sprouted quickly as Zhu Hui said. Not only was the root system stable, but it also grew rapidly after it was stable. Ye Lu also asked Yuegui how she felt, and Yuegui happily said that she felt very comfortable.
There are also the Swamp Tree Strange Pearls, which are also good stuff.
Zhu Hui pondered for a moment, thinking about the resources he could mobilize. Many resources of the merchants in Shizhu Village can be mobilized by each other, even if the bloodlines in the village are hostile. The old grandmother doesn't care whether the bloodlines of the little guys are hostile or not. If you don't obey, she will slap you.
Needless to say, Ye Lu's laurel tree is very important. Zhu Hui is the first one to keep it in mind. But the properties of the laurel tree are special. He also feels that he cannot be careless. The last time he encountered the swamp tree, it was just a coincidence. This time, the caravan came straight to the Forbidden Stone Mountains and really didn't encounter anything good and strange along the way.
After a moment, Zhu Hui had an idea in his mind.
"Excuse me, Lord Yelu, do you know mountain apes?" Zhu Hui pondered for a moment and slowly said, "This is a strange creature that looks very much like a human. It loves flesh and blood, is smart and cunning, and often lives in deep mountains. Occasionally, it will use bait to hunt humans."
"Mountain apes also have two sides. Those who like to eat fruits and leaves often become strange beasts and live with strange plants. Those who like to eat flesh and blood appear beside strange plant creatures. They also appreciate the wind and worship the moon. Therefore, the strange plants they plant are not inferior to those worshipped by humans."
"What I want to talk about is the remains of a plant weirdo."
"It is a camphor tree monster. It had the chance to become a monster plant. However, the camphor tree encountered a mountain ape that likes to eat flesh and blood, and it turned into a monster. An elder of my tribe once went to a certain mountain. The foot of the mountain was sparsely populated, and there was no one in the village. After going up the mountain, he found that everyone had been eaten by two monsters."
"He then attacked and killed the two ghosts. The remains of the camphor ghost have been preserved to this day because of its explosive and special ghost power."
"The laurel tree is a companion strange plant. If you want to break through the level limit, you must use strong medicine. The remains of camphor tree are just the right thing. And I remember that laurel tree and camphor tree are both trees, and their categories are not far apart. It should be able to absorb strange power to a greater extent by eating these remains." Zhu Hui slowly expressed his thoughts.
"How much is the remains?" Ye Lu paused. The laurel tree seemed to be from the Lauraceae family. They were both evergreen trees, so they were not very different. Ye Lu was almost certain that the laurel tree could definitely absorb the strange power from the remains of the camphor tree and advance.
"Eighty thousand strange beads!" Zhu Hui smiled apologetically and revealed a shocking price.
Ye Lu: “……!!!” Even Ye Lu was a little shocked by this price.
"…………What's the grade of that camphor tree?" Ye Lu was silent for a while, then asked Zhu Hui.
Zhu Hui said bluntly: "It's an intermediate Qingyou level, Lord Yelu, it's because the camphor tree grows too well, maybe because it has been worshipped for the moon all year round, the camphor tree is exceptionally large, and its level is too awkward, an intermediate Qingyou level, but the degree of its explosive force can be called high-level Qingyou level, and the high-level Qingyou level strange plants that can be used often look to the Blood Resentment level materials, and the intermediate Qingyou level strange plants can't suppress such explosive strange force?"
"This price is almost half off. In the past, this would have cost at least two hundred thousand. This is a Qingyou-level strange plant resource."
Sure enough, Qingyou level!
"Where is the mysterious pearl of the camphor tree?" Ye Lu did not continue to ask about the remains of the camphor tree, but instead asked about the mysterious pearl of the camphor tree.
Zhu Hui didn't understand, but he still said honestly: "It seems to be in the hands of my elders. Because this camphor tree is really rare, the remains and the strange bead are the best when used together. My elder in the clan has always been unwilling to sell it at a low price, so it has been held back until now."
"For this price, when I return to the village, I'm afraid I'll have to ask other elders to mediate!" Zhu Hui had already made up his mind when he returned to the village. He must ask his other uncle to persuade Uncle Xueqi. Zhu Hui felt that he was justified. This time, the laurel seed business of his helped the clan gain face.
When the village meeting is held at the end of the year, they will all hold their heads high when talking to each other in the clan. After all, Zhu Hui has obtained a lot of shares of the signature strange food of the "power" and some of them were snatched from rival merchants. When the time comes, he will show off in front of those enemies and feel comfortable from body to mind.
But don't think that there is no competition in Shizhu Village.
Shizhu Village is just exchanging resources, and the others should compete.
This time, Uncle Xueqi had to take out the resources he had been holding on to. Wasn't it because he lost face when he went to fight that monster? He had to keep raising the price?
"How much is the strange bead?" Ye Lu asked again.
"Fifty thousand." Zhu Hui scratched his head and said, "There is only one strange bead. Although its effect is good, it is not as good as the remains of strange creatures. This is the only price."
"I want both the remains and the strange beads. How about 100,000 strange beads?" Ye Lu said without hesitation.
"No!" Zhu Hui flatly refused!
Zhu Hui shook his head desperately, his black robe hood almost leaving an afterimage, and he was still explaining: "Lord Ye Lu, this price is really too low. I may not be able to get the remains for 80,000. I need someone to mediate. And the strange bead, the strange bead of the Qingyou-level plant, is of medium quality. It only costs 50,000. Just go out and find a caravan that offers a price lower than this, and I will give it to you for free!!"
Zhu Hui felt very aggrieved. Lord Ye Lu? Why did he not play by the rules?
He gave the lowest price for each item, and made almost no profit from the strange pearls. For example, he really didn't make any money from the camphor remains and the strange pearls. He even paid for the transportation, just for Ye Lu's friendship.
Now that the price had been bargained down like this, Zhu Hui couldn't help but want to ask Ye Lu not to be so excessive. Rigging people? That's not the way to cheat.
When Ye Lu saw that Zhu Hui wanted to turn around and run away, he knew that the price Zhu Hui gave was indeed the bottom line, but he really couldn't give any other price. He still had more than ten thousand strange beads that he wanted to save for the laurel tree to bloom and bear fruit once more. One hundred thousand was his total share.
Ye Lu wiped his face and said directly and clearly: "All the share of laurel seeds belongs to you."
Zhu Hui paused shaking his head, but after a moment, he slowly shook his head again and said, "Is this price really too high to afford? Didn't you say before that I would have a share of the laurel seeds after the third batch? Why do you use the same excuse twice?"
Ye Lu ignored Zhu Hui's refusal and spoke more concisely, saying: "The share is all yours. After the laurel tree reaches the Qingyou level, you can take out the laurel seeds you get again. You should get the real benefits, right? I don't want more, half each, let's go together to cheat those big households."
"Are you coming?" Ye Lu directly stated the distribution method he had in mind.
"Of course, all the strange plant resources obtained by your caravan must be supplied to me first. As long as I have the corresponding strange plants, you can sell them to others when I don't need them. After all, the laurel tree is my strange plant, and I need enough benefits!" Ye Lu added.
This distribution method is what Ye Lu is most satisfied with at the moment. If he takes the Ghost Pearl directly, Ye Lu already feels that it is not enough to make money. He keenly realizes that the effect of laurel seeds is greater than he thought. He should target the fine and high-quality areas. In that case, he would really lose money if all of them are Ghost Pearls. It is better to let Zhu Hui go through the channel directly, and the highest bidder wins.
The more you cheat, the more you get.
Ye Lu believed that with Zhu Hui's means, he could get a higher price than the more than 300,000 strange beads.
Zhu Hui stopped shaking his head. He slowly raised his head, and his eyes gradually brightened.
Ye Lu once again took drastic measures and said, "Although the camphor remains are rare this time, and although you, Chief Zhu Hui, can indeed get the lowest price, what if other caravan leaders are also willing to make a big move in exchange for my share of laurel seeds? The resources of Shizhu Village should be interchangeable, right?"
"Stop talking, I agree!" Zhu Hui interrupted Ye Lu's next words.
Zhu Hui's eyes lit up frighteningly. He turned his head and stared at Ye Lu and said, "One hundred thousand strange beads, not a penny more. I'll do the deal." This time, he went back to the village in person to ask for help.
Uncle Xue Qi disagreed, so he went to find someone. It was time for his father to go and see his grandmother and the ancestors.
Ye Lu's words completely changed Zhu Hui's next thoughts. Yes, he had begun to look forward to the effect of the Qingyou-grade laurel seeds. When the time came, he would personally go to the mountains of various forces to sell their products door-to-door.
Ye Lu paused, Oh?
Ye Lu tilted his head, and then, just met Zhu Hui's forced gentle smile. However, this smile suddenly became a little more ferocious in Ye Lu's eyes.
Ye Lu also showed a satisfied smile. Yes, this was the fighting spirit he wanted to see.
"Well, it's a pleasure working with you?" Ye Lu said with a smile.
Zhu Hui smiled with satisfaction, but there was still some cruelty in his eyes. He looked at Ye Lu with a very gentle look and said, "Deal. Here are the remaining 13,600 strange beads, not a single one less."
Zhu Hui held out his hand, and Zhu Bai handed over a bag just right. How could he be so careful in doing business? All these strange beads were from trees, and most of them were from swamp trees. Only when there were not enough strange beads from swamp trees did they switch to other strange beads from trees.
Ye Lu took the bag and looked at the silk bag with some curiosity. The bag looked like some kind of silk and its specific value could not be seen. It was smooth and shiny under the light. Ye Lu could not help but look at it several times, and then handed it to the ghost book student.
"Five days." Zhu Hui said word by word: "The black locust seeds and the camphor remains strange beads will definitely be delivered by someone!"
"Okay!" Ye Lu nodded.
At this time, Zhu Bai and Lu Hui had quickly counted the goods that had been agreed upon, and moved them over very considerately. They were now looking at Zhu Hui.
As soon as Zhu Hui finished speaking, the three of them turned around without hesitation and returned to the caravan, moving decisively.
They had to get back to the caravan quickly.
A village far away in the center of the entire continent.
A lazy middle-aged man in a blood-red robe was lying on a big rock at the entrance of his village, basking in the sun. He had a wild and handsome appearance, and although he had grown old, this handsomeness had not diminished at all, but instead seemed like a stored fine wine, with a bit more mellowness from the years.
"......!!!" Xue Qi was basking in the sun from time to time. He was an old man who was about to retire. He had earned a lot of strange beads and controlled a lot of strange plants. He only needed to do business for half a year every year, and he could do anything in the remaining half a year. He usually basked in the sun at the entrance of the village.
"The sun is still better in our own village, it's more comfortable." Xue Qi said slowly to the white-robed man next to him. There were almost no people around him. Except for the white-robed man who was basking in the sun like him, everyone else was very far away.
"Because of the ancestral spirits, those nasty impurities and resentments dare not come here." Qi Wan said with a smile. He also liked the sun in his own village. When the sun shone, he felt warm all over.
"You just sneezed. Could it be that some enemy wants to kill you?" Qi Wan spoke with an unchanged smile. He originally valued this big stone because it was at the entrance of the village and was the strongest and received the most sunlight. Unfortunately, it was snatched away by Xue Qi as soon as he lay down on it.
He couldn't beat this bastard, so he could only settle for the second best and bask in the sun on the side. This statement was purely personal and did not contain any emotion.
Xue Qi waved his hands, lay back down, and said nonchalantly: "What enemies do I have? I usually kill all the enemies on the spot. How can they still be here?"
"You are so experienced, could it be that you would keep your enemies? You are not strong enough, but you can let your enemies run away?" Xue Qi laughed without hesitation: "Don't go back to the village to ask for help and let the younger generations laugh at you."
"How is that possible?" Qi Wan said slowly, "My enemies? They will die even faster."
"I've lived this long. If there's anything that can make me angry, it's only these young people in the village."
"That's right, that's right." Xue Qi nodded in agreement.
Wait, did Xue Qi have a premonition after hearing this? Not good. Why did Qi Wan's words sound unpleasant?
Xue Qi quickly put this ominous premonition behind him. Just kidding, no matter how annoying those juniors were, they were just trying to snatch his share of the strange food. What else could that do?
Xue Qi smiled easily.
However, when Xue Qi saw the caravan suddenly appearing from the village entrance, and the familiar figure leading them, Zhu Hui, the boy's eyes lit up when he saw him.
Xue Qi knew that the debt collector had arrived.
"One hundred thousand?? !! You sold my camphor remains and strange beads for only one hundred thousand strange beads?!!" That night, in Shizhu Village, the gathering place of the blood poisonous bloodline, there was a furious roar from Xueqi.
"Why don't you sell yourself!!"
Zhu Hui stared at Xue Qi and said, "The laurel seed share, all of it? It's mine!"
Xue Qi paused, he paused for a moment, then walked around the room again, and said, "I know that laurel seeds are important. I heard that you got a lot of the food share, but what about this 100,000? Last time someone offered 150,000, I was reluctant to sell it!!"
Qi Wan, who was standing by, was still making sarcastic remarks leisurely, saying, "Young merchant, you don't support me. This is the most important share of strange food. It's just the strange remains of a plant. It's okay if you lose a little."
Zhu Hui looked at him at this time.
Qi Wan's heart skipped a beat when he was looked at, and he had a bad feeling.
"I'll also take your share of the black locust seeds." Zhu Hui said slowly.
"One?" Qi Wan was very calm, trying to cover up the fact that he had just lost his breath.
"all?."
Qi Wan is not laughing anymore. He still needs to keep the shares of black locust seeds, but this prodigal son gave them all away.
"Do you know how much you can get in exchange for two portions of black locust seeds? Good stuff?! And don't you already have one portion of black locust seeds? Three portions of black locust seeds, are you planning to do good deeds?"
Xue Qi, who was standing by, just took a deep breath. When he heard Qi Wan's words, he also started to be sarcastic and retaliate crazily, saying, "Why, isn't it just to support the young merchants? You're not willing to give this little thing?"
"…………" Zhu Hui remained calm, ignoring the two elders' roars and rejections, and asked, "Really not giving it to me?"
"Nonsense!" Xue Qi was rude!
"Little bastard, don't even think about asking my grandmother for favors. I'm telling you, it's useless!" Qi Wan cursed immediately after, "This business won't work even if it's in front of my grandmother!"
Zhu Hui curled his lips and said, "My father hasn't woken up for a long time in the past few years. I'll let him go to the ancestral spirit for a visit."
