Three hundred and twentieth chapters no grievances
Zhang Xiaopeng is a little messy.
Why does the great elder in front of me act so much like a merchant?
What about being virtuous and respectable, having a moral integrity, and being indifferent to fame and wealth?
This is obviously cunning and cunning.
Zhang Xiaozu really wanted to ask Qin Rulan next to him if there were two great elders in their Qin Mansion, but he really didn't dare to speak in front of the master in front of him.
"Boy, don't feel panic about the loss." The elder seemed to know what Zhang Xiaozhu was thinking. He stroked his beard and said with a thoughtful expression: "As the old saying goes: without benefits, there is no motivation. Just take this bracelet as an example.
Well, I can sell it to you for five cents, or ten cents, twenty cents, or even more. How much do you think is a loss and how much is a gain?"
After hearing this, Zhang Xiaozhu couldn't help but feel that it made sense, and all the worries in his heart were gone. He nodded and agreed: "Then as you said, let's divide the account between three and seven. Well, you and I will divide the accounts between three and seven."
He stressed at the end uneasily, fearing that if he didn't make it clear now, tomorrow when the cunning elder would kill everyone, he would have no place to cry.
"Don't worry, I will definitely help you sell it at a good price." The elder assured, patting his chest. His expression and movements didn't look like a fairy-like master, and he looked like a profit-seeking merchant.
The great elder looked at the jade bracelet in his hand and asked: "If I guessed correctly, its effect should be time-limited, right? Tell me, how many pieces do you want to sell, and what is your target price?"
"Senior Dharma Eye, its effectiveness does have a time limit, usually around three to four months. A better one should last for more than half a year, but I only want to sell ordinary quality ones. I plan to sell five pieces, after all, things are rare.
Why is it so expensive? As for the target price, I don’t know the target price, it’s all decided by the elder.” Zhang Xiaozu replied.
…
The conversation that followed went smoothly. He made an appointment with the elder to pick up the elixir tomorrow morning, and Zhang Xiaopou got up and left.
Qin Xinru didn't know if she was frightened, but she never came to trouble him.
Qin Rulan sent him out of the Qin Mansion gate.
After saying goodbye to Qin Rulan in front of the door, Zhang Xiaopou got into the Qi family's carriage that had been waiting not far away.
Zhou Jianlai, Niu Dawa and Qi Ronger were the only three people left in the car. Qi Yoyo followed Wan Qiuqing to the northwest camp. Before leaving, he told them to return to the military camp as soon as possible, saying that the army would be ready for the expedition after one more day of repair.
The word "departure" made Zhang Xiaozu feel a sense of urgency in his heart.
At Zhou Jianlai's suggestion, a few people went to the largest alchemy pavilion in Baiyun City. When they entered, they were very majestic because they had collected a lot of silver coins from the Li family. It could be said that they were rich. However, when they went out, they all had eyeballs.
He was bleeding and looked like he was looking for someone to fight for. Because the price of elixirs has reached sky-high prices now, the three of them only bought a dozen bottles of medium quality with their combined banknotes.
The three of them stopped wandering around. Zhou Jianlai called another carriage and returned to Zhou's house. Zhang Xiaozu and Niu Dawa followed Qi Ronger back to Qi's house, planning to spend the night at Qi's house to give Qi Gaozhan some peace of mind.
, it was also a disguised warning to Qi Gaozhan that they had a close relationship with Qi Ronger, so that this greedy guy would not bully Qi Ronger and her daughter again after they left.
Practicing all night, nothing happened.
But there was a night of bloodshed in the four major military camps in Baiyun City. All the Dayu spies disguised as Dayu soldiers were picked out by the green liquid. From generals to top soldiers, they were almost everywhere in the army, and even from
Among the more than 30,000 people who came to Yancheng, there were thirteen big-tooth spies hidden among them.
The pervasiveness of Big Tooth's spy made everyone shudder.
The generals in Baiyun City were all beating their chests. Only then did they realize why they lost so miserably. It turned out that there were so many Big Tooth spies hidden in their army. Their tactical arrangements were all known to the Big Tooth Army, so they would not lose in a fight.
That's strange. They were glad that the old prince ordered them to defend and refused to fight, otherwise Baiyun City would have been captured by Daya's army long ago.
After having breakfast with Qi Ronger and her daughter, Zhang Xiaozu said goodbye to them.
Although she had long known that Zhang Xiaopou would leave today and was mentally prepared, when it came time to cherish each other, Qi Ronger couldn't hold back her tears after all.
"It's uncertain whether I will live or die. You must have other plans, do you understand?" Zhang Xiaozu whispered in Qi Ronger's ear. This meant that Qi Ronger should be fully prepared in case he died on the battlefield or died in battle.
There was some kind of accident and she couldn't rush back before next year's island survival. She could find a way to deal with Qi Gaozhan's attack.
"Yes." Qi Ronger nodded with tears in her eyes. She was smart and naturally understood immediately. But she immediately shook her head and asked, "Can't you just go? With thousands of troops, one more person is not more than you, and one person less is not more than you."
few."
"How can we not let go of the hatred between the country and the family?" Zhang Xiaozu said.
"Then - come back alive!" Qi Ronger pleaded.
To come back alive may be the humblest prayer of the relatives behind every soldier who goes to the battlefield.
"Try your best!" Zhang Xiaozu nodded.
"It's not about trying your best, it's about determination!" Qi Ronger said.
"Okay, I will definitely come back alive." Zhang Xiaozu promised.
Qi Ronger sent Zhang Xiaopou out of the house, called a carriage for him, and finally waved goodbye with tears in her eyes.
Zhang Xiaozu arrived at the Qin Mansion in a carriage. Zhou Jianlai and Niu Dawa had already arrived a step earlier and were chatting with the guards at the door.
The three of them met and said hello briefly.
The guards had already received the order and took Zhang Xiaopeng directly to the great elder's courtyard without any notification.
Five items were exchanged for forty large boxes of elixirs, which were piled high in the empty room of the great elder. Although the wooden boxes contained elixir bottles, the elixir bottles contained elixirs. It was purely a calculation.
The amount of elixirs was far less than forty boxes, but it was far beyond Zhang Xiaozu's expectation. In his opinion, it would be good to have half of what he had in front of him. Especially after yesterday's purchase of elixirs, he knew clearly
Pills are so precious right now. I never expected that the great elder would be so powerful.
"Ahem, these are all yours, take them and run away," the great elder said.
"Ah?" Zhang Xiaopou was grinning from ear to ear when he suddenly heard the word "escape" and looked at the elder without knowing why.
"I forgot one thing when I was selling your small items last night." The elder's eyes met Zhang Xiaopou's, and he seemed to feel a little guilty.
"What's the matter?" Zhang Xiaozu still didn't understand. He just forgot one thing. Why should he run for his life?
"I forgot to tell them that the effect is time-limited."
"——Isn't it?"
"I feel that they will definitely come to me to accuse me when the time comes, so I prepared this." The great elder brought the hand behind his back in front of him, holding a piece of paper in his hand, on which he drew a portrait, "I
I am also a victim. I must help myself and every victim to get justice. I vow to find this charlatan and punish him on the spot, so as to eliminate this harm to the martial arts world."
Zhang Xiaozu stared at the portrait in the elder's hand and asked, "Senior, why does this portrait look so similar to me?"
"Nonsense, if it's painted in your likeness, wouldn't it look different?" the great elder said angrily.
"I have no enmity with my senior, why did my senior harm me?" Zhang Xiaozu wanted to cry but had no tears.
"Oh, your master has a grudge against me." The great elder said casually.
"Aren't you friends for many years?" Zhang Xiaozu glared.
"Who said that?"
"You!"
"Did I ever say that?"
"You - you - go too far!" Zhang Xiaozhu was dumbfounded. He had seen shameless people before, but never such a shameless one.
"Boy, do you want to fight?" the elder asked, rolling up his sleeves.
