After signing the deed of betrayal, Su Lingfeng got a stack of gold tickets as he wished. Not wanting to see the sinister old man Situ Xiaoshan's successful face again, Su Lingfeng turned around and left with a black face.
Situ Xiaoshan put away the "Contract Seal Book" with satisfaction and was in a good mood.
Su Lingfeng returned to Linfeng Garden, took a short rest, changed his clothes, and planned to go to the Mercenary Union with his promise.
As soon as the master and servant left the door, they saw Xiao Mingliang waiting at the door. When they saw her coming out, they bowed and then asked: "Little miss, the carriage is ready, are you leaving the house now?"
Su Lingfeng raised an eyebrow and glanced at Xiao Mingliang, then nodded: "Yes."
When we arrived at the mercenary union, Lei Yuan happened to have just arrived with a few mercenaries.
"Miss Su." Lei Yuan greeted Su Lingfeng with a smile.
"Young Master Lei." Su Lingfeng nodded to Lei Yuan, then without any nonsense, he walked straight to a staff member and went through the formalities for issuing an S-level mission.
The S-level mission was refreshed on the mission screen, causing a lot of commotion in the mercenary union. Everyone scrambled to check the mission content, but no one dared to take the mission rashly.
There were a few people who thought they were quite powerful, and they were thinking of recruiting a group of equally powerful experts to try, but before they could take action, the task was taken over.
Lei Yuan is a straightforward person. He agreed to Su Lingfeng to do this task, so he naturally took action. Although the mercenaries in the hall were a little jealous when they saw this, they also saw that they were wearing the badges of the "Golden Lion Mercenary Group".
No one dared to step forward and provoke without overestimating their own capabilities, so they could only look back and sigh.
"Young Master Lei, I wish you good luck." Su Lingfeng said.
Lei Yuan smiled: "Miss Cheng, I hope we can complete your mission as soon as possible."
The two of them stopped being too polite and left the mercenary union with their own people.
When Su Lingfeng returned to the city lord's palace, she locked herself in the basement and began to practice alchemy. She did not forget that she and Yi Shuijue had a bet!
As for the "contract seal" she signed, there was no rush to develop Lingyun City's economy. Anyway, her grandfather didn't rush her, and the seal didn't specify a specific date to start implementing the reform plan.
During this period of time, apart from eating and taking care of personal hygiene, Su Lingfeng spent the rest of his time in the basement. He even took rest in the basement.
In the blink of an eye, more than a month and twenty days have passed. Three days before the bet time agreed with Yi Shuijue, Su Lingfeng finally came out of seclusion!
After Su Lingfeng came out of quarantine, she first took a comfortable hot bath, then hugged Tuanzi and ate a delicious meal, and then lay on the bed and fell asleep.
Once you sleep, it’s a whole day and a night!
During this period, she used her mental power too frequently. Although her mental power was as vast as the sea and would not be exhausted, excessive use also made her feel weak.
In the middle of the night, Su Lingfeng felt the fluctuation in the air. She knew that Mo Wenchen was coming, but she didn't even bother to open her eyelids. She let him touch her forehead, tuck her quilt, and accompany her to the hotel.
The sky was bright, and then he left quietly...
The third day was the day when the bet with Yi Shuijue expired. During breakfast, Situ Xiaoshan called Su Lingfeng to have dinner with him. During the dinner, Situ Xiaoshan looked at Su Lingfeng several times, hesitantly.
Just pretend you don't see the wind, and elegantly lower your head to eat.
"Ahem!" Situ Xiaoshan finally couldn't help but speak first, "Today...is the day when your bet with that boy from the Yi family expires, right?"
"Well, yes, grandpa." Su Lingfeng nodded calmly.
"Um... if you are not sure about defeating him, you can buy or exchange those blueprints with that boy. There is no shortage of gold coins in the house. If you want treasures in exchange, there are also many treasures in our house, so it should be enough.
As for it, it’s just unsightly.” After a pause, Situ Xiaoshan added: “Of course, the property in the house cannot support you unconditionally, so you can take it on credit temporarily.”
The corner of Su Lingfeng's mouth twitched slightly, she just said, why is this tough old man suddenly willing to pluck his hair...
"Lingfeng understands grandpa's wishes, but it's no need, I will win." Su Lingfeng's tone was calm.
When Situ Xiaoshan heard this, he immediately looked at Su Lingfeng with burning eyes: "So, your alchemy level has exceeded the intermediate level?!"
"Yes, grandpa." Su Lingfeng nodded calmly.
"Seriously?" Situ Xiaoshan's tone became much higher.
"Yeah, seriously." Su Lingfeng remained calm.
"Hahaha! Okay, okay! You are indeed my good granddaughter, and grandpa really saw you right!" Situ Xiaoshan was so happy that he couldn't see his eyes.
Su Lingfeng couldn't help but rolled her eyes secretly, wondering who was looking uncertain and distrustful of her just now.
After the meal, Su Lingfeng left the city lord's palace with Xu Nuo and Xiao Mingliang, but she was not in a hurry to find Yi Shuihan. Even if she could win against Yi Shuihan and buy all the drawings at a very low price,
The so-called ultra-low price is only five thousand gold coins, but she doesn't have that much money on hand.
He ordered Xiao Mingliang to drive straight to the largest weapons store in the city, sell all the equipment he had refined during this period, and finally raised enough five thousand gold coins before heading to Yi Shuijue's small drug store.
The door of Yi Shuijue's small medicine shop was wide open. Yi Shuijue moved a chair and sat lazily at the door. He was eating and drinking with a wine bottle in one hand and a chicken drumstick in the other.
Seeing the arrival of Su Lingfeng's master and servant, Yi Shuijue swallowed the chicken in his mouth, smiled at Su Lingfeng and said: "Why are you here? I have been waiting for you for a long time, and I thought you were going to give in immediately.
"
Su Lingfeng glanced at Yi Shuijue and said calmly, "Retreating without a fight is not my style."
"Ha, the little girl has quite a personality, I like her." After saying that, he stood up and walked into the house, calling Su Lingfeng and others: "Come in."
The medicine shop was just like the last time he came here, shabby and shabby, and the dust seemed to be thicker than the last time he came here. Su Lingfeng was puzzled. Although this place was a little remote, the potions here were all good.
, I think all the customers who have visited once will become repeat customers. How could the business be so bad?
When Yi Shuijue turned around, he noticed Su Lingfeng's expression and couldn't help but explain with some embarrassment: "My small shop only opens once a month, for half a day each time."
"..." Su Lingfeng was silent, thinking that in the past three months, this guy had only done business for a day and a half!
Yi Shuijue casually placed the wine bottle on the table, threw the half-eaten chicken legs into a broken bamboo building, took out a rag from a corner and wiped his greasy hands, then stretched out his hand to Su Lingfeng: "
