Ji Yuan glanced at it in surprise, and suddenly understood the intention of Qian Nishang's move.
Even if they are willing to sit down and have a good talk, or even give up some of their benefits, because of the lives of hundreds of thousands of people and their unwillingness to bear the too heavy sin.
But these people here are still not satisfied, and they will not even let them leave safely.
Because the price you need to pay to satisfy these people's appetites is too high, and there is no difference between giving away everything you have in hand.
However, Qian Nishang had spent an astonishing amount of money and used all the connections he could use. How could he give up all the benefits he was about to receive?
If this plan fails, not to mention that she will be completely destroyed, even the entire Qian family will be completely kicked out of Mingxinxuan, and will eventually be eaten up by a group of tigers and wolves surrounding them.
Since it is impossible for her to give up all the benefits to satisfy the appetites of these people, then naturally there is no need to compromise.
Qian Nishang's behavior at this time is to control the rhythm of the field in his own hands. Even if there is a fight in the end, he must have the final say.
It was precisely because of this that she changed her previous attitude and showed a look that would lead to a loss of life and death.
When his words fell, everyone present looked puzzled. In their expectation, Qian Nishang should have a low profile now, begging them to stop.
Otherwise, once the plague breaks out completely in the city, it will affect not only hundreds of thousands of people, but also villages and towns within a radius of nearly a thousand miles.
For such a huge sin, let alone a monk at the peak of the second realm, even a great monk who has formed a golden elixir will be burned by the fire of karma on the spot. Even if he is lucky enough to survive, his cultivation will probably be very bad.
one.
Only those who practice the way of demons will not be affected by this, and can even make further progress in their own cultivation.
"Money is only an external possession after all. If you lose your life, then you really have nothing."
A middle-aged man who looked like a scholar spoke, waving the folding fan in his hand, as if he wanted to persuade.
Seeing this scene, Ji Yuan secretly laughed in his heart. He looked murderous before, but now after saying a few words, he began to persuade Qian Nichang not to be impulsive.
It seemed that these people were also afraid that she would lose everything and eventually bear a big sin for nothing, but get nothing out of it.
It is not as simple as losing a sum of money, but also makes the forces behind each bear a heavy price. Because of the serious sin, a layer of luck will be cut off by heaven and earth.
If it really comes to that situation, no one present will be able to reap any good fruits!
"That's right, shopkeeper Qian, don't take advantage of the moment of anger and ruin your life for nothing."
Another person spoke, seemingly to persuade, but in fact he was threatening.
Even Li Wenqing, although the smile on his face remained unchanged, a strange color could not help but appear deep in his eyes, as if he did not expect that Qian Nishang's few words would disrupt the rhythm they had set previously.
Nowadays, everyone still wants to get benefits, but they don't dare to press too hard, lest this lady is really desperate and wants to fight them to the death!
Ji Yuan also had to admire his boss, at least in terms of negotiation, he was indeed very outstanding. The situation was almost established, but just a few words from him were able to create a gap.
When Qian Nichang heard this, a sneer appeared on her face. She leaned on the armrest and looked around at everyone present.
"No matter how unfair the business is, both parties will ultimately make a profit. It's just a matter of making more or less."
"But you want to take advantage of everything. It's best if you ask me to hand over everything in my hand. It's best to leave nothing behind."
"There is nowhere in the world to do business like this. It would be better to simply say that you want to rob someone."
"Why bother covering the surface with such a futile fig leaf?"
She opened her red lips lightly and spoke slowly and logically, but her tone became colder little by little.
By the end, her face was as cold as frost, and there was already a trace of mana fluctuations coming out, as if she was furious.
It’s just a few seemingly tough ones. (This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 121: Vertical and Horizontal
A sentence, but it reveals another kind of information overtly and covertly.
Since you want to talk about business, if you can make some money, you can talk about it. If you don’t want to make money, then just grab it!
Suddenly, most of the thirteen force spokespersons at the banquet were shaken in their hearts, and only a few people still insisted on their original ideas.
Just a few words before and after, this group of people had quietly divided into two or even three different ideas.
Some people stick to their original plan, which is to eat until they can't hold it anymore and eat up all the benefits.
Some people are shaken and feel that as long as someone makes money, there is no need to push the other party to a dead end.
There were even two or three people who suddenly came up with the idea that if the other party could survive the night safely, maybe they could secretly cooperate with them.
As Qian Nishang said, doing business is about making money for both parties, and as long as there is profit, what difference does it make with who you cooperate with?
Feeling the subtle changes in the atmosphere here, when Ji Yuan looked at his boss again, he couldn't help but feel a bit of respect in his heart.
He is worthy of being the person who is in charge of the crumbling Qian family, and can still stand firm in Mingxinxuan amidst many forces, and always hold his breath without letting the Qian family be completely knocked down.
In less than half a moment, the forces of the fourteen families here were already being divided quietly!
"Since Shopkeeper Qian has said so, how many things can you come up with to satisfy the appetites of the thirteen families here?"
When Li Wenqing saw this, he couldn't help but put away the smile on his face, and said seriously: "If you can't even recover the cost, how can you make a profit?"
This person was obviously a little anxious. It seemed that he was speaking to Qian Nichang, but in fact he was speaking to the various forces present.
The implication is very obvious, it is to tell everyone that the Qian family cannot provide enough benefits to satisfy the appetite of the Thirteen families while ensuring that both parties make money.
Only by joining forces with him and eating up Qian Nishang can we return home with a full load, instead of not being able to get back even the original money.
However, his words made some people have different thoughts in their minds. A seed was quietly planted, and then quickly broke out of the ground and grew vigorously.
Qian Nichang could see the expressions in the eyes of the spokespersons of the thirteen forces, and her high-spirited heart finally relaxed a little.
Originally, she was still thinking about how to say something to plant a seed in these people's hearts, but she didn't expect that Li Wenqing directly helped to do it.
Then Qian Nishang's face revealed a smile unscrupulously. Li Wenqing couldn't help but murmur in his heart, and suddenly felt something bad.
"Thirteen forces, including you, Li Wenqing, are really a lot."
She smiled and whispered: "But if it is nine powers, I can guarantee that they will get their capital back, and seven powers can make a small profit. If there are only five powers, although it cannot be said to be a huge profit, it can still be regarded as one."
It’s a big opportunity. _o_m ”
Everyone's hearts moved slightly. They would naturally calculate this account. The fewer the participating forces, the more they would earn. Even if there were only two or three forces, they would be able to eat them until they died!
Li Wenqing's eyes flashed, and he no longer looked calm. He vaguely felt that things were gradually getting out of his control.
Glancing at the expressions of everyone present, the uneasiness in my heart spread quickly.
"Then how does Shopkeeper Qian plan to persuade other forces to withdraw voluntarily?"
There was a solemn look in his eyes, and he asked with a half-smile.
As he spoke, he had already sent out the signal he had said in advance, so that everyone could be ready to take action at any time.
The forces from all thirteen families, including the power of his county governor's office, surrounded and killed two second-level monks. Not to mention it was easy, but it was not difficult at all.
"Master Li is over seventy years old this year, right?"
However, Qian Nishang changed the topic and pointed the topic elsewhere in a meaningful way.
As soon as these words came out, Li Wenqing's face immediately darkened. His own longevity had been a concern for him in recent years.
Even though he holds a high position in the Sheriff's Mansion, he enjoys countless benefits every year. Three meals a day are filled with food containing spiritual energy, and he also consumes a lot of precious elixirs and spiritual things. (This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 121: Vertical and Horizontal
Only then can he barely maintain his middle-aged appearance.
But even if it delays the aging of the skin, it still cannot change his age. No matter how many elixirs he takes, he still cannot cross that hurdle.
A mortal's life expectancy is only 180 years, but those who can actually live to be 100 years old are only a very small number. The vast majority of people will age rapidly after reaching the age of 80.
Often within a few years, they will drive away to the west and have nothing to do with the troubles in the world.
"Although Lord Sheriff is at the pinnacle of the second realm, he is now one hundred and fifty years old, and he is also worried about his longevity."
Qian Nishang glanced at him, then said with a slight smile.
The two things may seem unrelated, but there is a thread connecting them.
And this sentence pierced Li Wenqing's heart. He knew that when the county guard was around, if the county guard got a spiritual object that could extend his life, no matter how much it cost, it would never fall into his hands.
in hands.
"Shopkeeper Qian, if you have anything to say, just say it."
He sighed, and as soon as he said the words, he suddenly realized that at this time, he and Qian Nichang had quietly switched places.
At the beginning, it was the other party who wanted them to speak directly, but now it has become him who needs to wait for the other party to speak.
The taste is somewhat so that people can't help but sigh.
"If the merits of disaster relief fall on you, the county governor can offset the merits and demerits, and will not be held accountable by the court."
Qian Nishang smiled and said: "And in my Qian family, there is still a red heart red fruit, which can extend the life of a mortal by ten years."
Hearing this, Li Wenqing's eyes lit up, and he seemed to have lost his composure, breaking his calm temperament.
How could he not understand what the other person meant by these words?
By winning the satisfaction of the county governor with his disaster relief efforts, he would not be held accountable and would not cause the county governor's displeasure if he obtained the Red Heart Fruit and took it privately without submitting a confession.
Ten years of life is not a lot, but it is a lot.
"Qian Nishang, Qian Nishang, you really do anything to break the situation!"
After a while, Li Wenqing's face suddenly straightened up: "Do you really think that with these few words, you can win a way out for yourself?"
As his words fell, several people quietly breathed a sigh of relief, almost thinking that he would really be able to resist the temptation and agreed immediately.
If this is the case, this situation can be considered broken by Qian Nichang. What the situation will be in the end is really hard to say.
