Chapter 547 A huge
investment As soon as Hu Jingcun said this, I immediately turned around and looked at Chujiu, and we both saw a teasing look in each other's eyes.
Since entering this reception hall, the reason why neither Chujiu nor I mentioned Lu Banchi was to let Hu Jingcun speak out himself.
In this way, we can blackmail him openly, and afterwards, Hu Jingcun will definitely be grateful to me and Chujiu. After all, it is us who helped him take the position of mountain master.
"My friend, Yuwen Hong has always carried Lu Banchi with him. Now that Yuwen Hong is dead, I have already gone to Lishui Manor to check Yuwen Hong's relics, and there is no Lu Banchi, so I guess... Lu Banchi should be in your hands."
At this point, Hu Jingcun raised his head and looked at me with burning eyes.
At this moment, his eyes were full of anticipation and eagerness. Obviously, he had long coveted the Lu Ban ruler, and this time, he must have come with the mentality of having to win it.
Since he wanted to make a deal, I naturally would not hide it. I nodded immediately and said, "The Lu Ban ruler is indeed in my hands, but... the two seniors should also know that I have a rule for following the Yin Ren lineage."
"What rules?" Sect Master Shan and Hu Jingcun asked almost in unison.
I smiled when I heard that, and then said, "No matter who's stuff belongs to it, as long as it's in my hands, it belongs to me. However, since Sect Leader Shan and Elder Hu came to ask for it in person, it's impossible for me not to give face to the two seniors. But..."
I shook my head here, looking embarrassed, "But, this Lu Ban ruler is not only exquisitely crafted, it also has a blessing effect on the formation, especially the effect of forming a formation instantly, which I like very much, so..."
"My little friend, since Sect Leader Shan and I have come here in person, we must have come with sincerity, so, no matter what the conditions are, just make them, and don't worry, as long as I, Hu Jingcun, can do it, I will definitely not refuse." Hu Jingcun said with a smile.
Since Hu Jingcun said so, I was relieved, but I still raised my eyebrows and said with embarrassment: "These two seniors, it's not that Qian Yu is the one who steals people's love, in fact, I like you very much."
"My friend Qian Yu, if you are willing to return the Lu Ban ruler to me, then I am willing to pay this amount to redeem it." Hu Jingcun raised a finger after he finished speaking. I was puzzled at first, but then my heart suddenly skipped a beat. I thought to myself, my God, this Hu Jingcun is worthy of being an old charlatan of the same generation as Yuwen Hong. He actually asked for one million right away?
I grew up in a small mountain village with my master since I was a child. Let alone one million. I have been following my master for all these years. It's hard to have a good meal, let alone save money. It's good enough to have enough food and be alive.
I swallowed my saliva with a "gulp" sound, opened my mouth and was about to speak, but Chujiu suddenly shook his head and said, "Ten million? Elder Hu, is this what you call sincerity?"
What?
Ten million?
I was dumbfounded after hearing Chujiu's words.
I thought Chujiu was asking for too much, wasn't he? It
was just a counterfeit Lu Ban ruler. Although it was a top-grade magic tool for Feng Shui masters, it shouldn't be... so much, right?
However, when I heard what Hu Jingcun said next, I was immediately stunned.
"Ten million is a little less, how about... fifty million?"
"Five, five... ten million?" At this moment, my eyelids were twitching wildly, and my heart almost jumped into my throat.
Before, I thought Hu Jingcun raised one finger to represent one million, so when Chu Jiu said that ten million was too little, I was shocked.
But who would have thought that what Hu Jingcun said was really ten million!
"Damn, is it because I am too short-sighted? The people in this city... are too rich!" I secretly complained in my heart.
"Qian Yu, what do you think?" Chu Jiu suddenly looked at me. I smiled calmly and said, "You decide on this matter. I don't care."
Although I said this, I was actually shouting in my heart that it was a deal, and it should be done quickly. Damn
, that's fifty million. This is a sum that many people can't earn in their lifetime, no, several lifetimes!
"Fifty million is indeed a lot, but Elder Hu, for those of us who practice cultivation, money is nothing more than material possessions. It is good to have, but we will never force it if we don't have it. After all, these things do not provide any substantial help for our cultivation."
Compared to my shock, Chu Jiu was much calmer at this moment, as if she was not talking about fifty million, but only fifty or five hundred.
"Haha, that's right. Money is only external to one's body after all. Moreover, to a Feng Shui master, this Lu Ban ruler is priceless. Elder Hu, think about it again. Do you have anything else to show off? Now that we've spoken, you should stop hiding it. As the saying goes, the longer the night, the more dreams you have. The sooner you get the Lu Ban ruler, the less trouble there will be!"
"That's right, Master Shan." Hu Jingcun nodded, then turned around, looked at Chu Jiu and said with a smile, "My friend, how about this? On the basis of 50 million, I will add two hundred-year-old ginsengs, a five-hundred-year-old Polygonum multiflorum, and a piece of nine-turn lightning-struck wood. What do you think?"
My heart skipped a beat after hearing what Hu Jingcun said.
Although a hundred-year-old ginseng cannot be compared with a 1,500-year-old snow lotus, it is also a rare treasure. If ordinary people take it, it can prolong their lives. Even if a practitioner takes it, it can stabilize their practice and heal internal injuries.
The five-hundred-year-old Polygonum multiflorum is even more effective than a hundred-year-old ginseng.
As for the nine-turn lightning wood, it is even more precious.
What is the nine-turn lightning wood? The
so-called nine-turn lightning wood refers to a tree that has been struck by heavenly thunder, and not just once, but nine times without being destroyed.
In this way, it is the nine-turn lightning wood.
This wood is the best at warding off evil spirits. It can be made into a talisman and worn on the body to ensure that the wearer is free from disease and disaster, and is immune to all evil spirits. It can even be made into a magical peach wood sword to subdue demons
and catch ghosts.
However, the Nine-turn Lightning Wood is too rare. Even if there is one, it has basically been reserved by the masters of the major sects. It is guarded all year round and will be taken away after the Nine-turn. Ordinary people cannot get close to it.
And this Hu Jingcun, in order to get the Lu Ban ruler, actually spent 50 million yuan and was even willing to take out two hundred-year-old ginsengs, a five-hundred-year-old Polygonum multiflorum, and even the Nine-turn Lightning Wood?
"This Hu Jingcun really spent a lot of money to get the position of the mountain master. I am a little curious, is it just the position of the mountain master of the Shanzi vein, is it worth him to fight for it so hard?"
