Chen Lan had a bitter look on her face. Although those days were very painful for her to look back on, she still told Ling Xiao truthfully.
After passing through the Feitian Formation, Chen Lan and the members of the Ziqiong Sect were all sent to a barren mountain in the Earth Soul World. As soon as they woke up, they were immediately besieged by a pack of wild wolves. In order to protect them, the entire Ziqiong Sect She alone was killed by the wolves, not even the plum blossoms, orchids, bamboos and chrysanthemums were spared.
There is no way, no matter how strong you are on Yaotian Continent, you will be inferior to a pack of wild wolves in the Earth Soul Realm. This is probably the sorrow of those who ascended.
After escaping from the barren mountain, Chen Lan encountered a mercenary group. Chen Lan didn't know where to go, so she joined the mercenary group to do the simplest logistical supply work.
Some time ago, this mercenary group was planning to come to Xihe City to pan for gold. Unexpectedly, they encountered an enemy on the way. The mercenaries of the mercenary group were either killed or captured.
The captured people were sold to slave traders, which is how Chen Lan came to the slave market in Xihe City.
Ling Xiao listened quietly to what Chen Lan said and came to an inference. When the seven purple light pillars soared into the sky in Yaotian Continent, as long as they were in the same light pillar, they would be in the same place in Xuantian Continent. Appear everywhere.
According to this, the junior brothers of the Beimin Sect and the elders of the Seven Demons Sect should be together with Li Yuanchong and his wife.
With so many people looking out for each other, it shouldn't be too bad.
Ling Xiao comforted himself like this, but his desire to find them became more and more urgent.
Power, Ling Xiao wanted power, and only a behemoth like the Long family could attract countless strong men. The Yuntian Sect did not dare to provoke them, and then he raised his arms and called out, and those old friends who knew he was here would come one by one.
Ling Xiao closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Then, he shouted: "Ling Shiyu, let's go out again."
Chen Lan was surprised that there was no one around, and suddenly the red shadow swooped out and came to Ling Xiao with a smile on his face: "Let's go shopping."
"Let's go to the slave market again, Chen Lan, you go with us." As soon as Ling Xiao mentioned the slave market, Ling Shiyu's face immediately turned cloudy, but Ling Xiao ignored her and turned around to leave.
In desperation, Ling Shiyu could only follow Ling Xiao and came to the slave market again.
When the middle-aged Ah Qi saw the evil star Ling Xiao coming again, he couldn't help but look like his dead son: "I didn't know you were here this time..."
"Buying slaves, there are as many slaves as there are, I bought them all." As soon as Ling Xiao said this, Ah Qi's eyes lit up at first, and then looked at Ling Xiao with some disbelief: "The rules of the slave market, Pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other hand..."
Ling Xiao snorted: "You are afraid that I have no money, tell me how to sell these slaves."
Ah Qi quickly took out a recorded soul stone and glanced at it, then said: "Now there are a total of ninety-seven thousand five hundred and thirty-one slaves and one hundred orange crystals. You should know the total number, right?" .”
Although Long Tao had promised not to antagonize Ling Xiao, this time it was Ling Xiao who came to do business. Ah Qi thought to herself, this is business now, not deliberately making things difficult, haha.
Ling Xiao sneered: "Okay, but considering my friendship with Master Long, I won't go too far, so I'll give you a 30% discount."
In fact, if someone was so generous, it wouldn't be a problem for Ah Qi to give him a 20% discount. What's more, Ling Xiao was only offering an extra 10% discount. Ah Qi asked himself that he wouldn't blame anyone if he asked, so he agreed immediately. : "Okay, deal."
With all the wealth of this old beggar, to Ling Xiao, a few million orange crystals mean nothing.
Afterwards, Ah Qi took away a spar card worth more than 60,000 citrines, and after giving the soul mark soul stones of the slaves to Ling Xiao, he conveniently left the entire slave market to Ling Xiao, and also gave away a small group of slaves. administrator.
Ling Xiao kicked the small group of slave administrators away: "Go away, go wherever you need to go."
Those guys all rolled their eyes and ran away with their heads in their hands.
There was a circular platform in the middle of the slave market. Ling Xiao stood in the middle of the platform and said loudly: "Brothers, just now, I have bought everyone. From now on, I am your boss."
The slaves were shocked for a while, and then looked at Chen Lan, who was already well-dressed next to Ling Xiao, with a tiny bit of hope in their numb eyes.
No one interrupted Ling Xiao's speech, and Ling Xiao continued: "You heard clearly just now, I said that I am your boss, not your master, so as long as you can make enough money for me to buy your crystals, I will I will restore everyone’s freedom.”
"What." The slaves couldn't believe their ears: there was such a good thing, and it was deceiving them. It was impossible.
Since that person is already a slave owner, it is not easy to enslave them, so it is necessary to play such a trick.
Ignoring the suspicious looks of the slaves, Ling Xiao smiled slightly and said: "I spent one hundred and fifty orange crystals to buy each of you, so you can leave as long as you earn enough two hundred orange crystals for me. , the extra fifty orange crystals will be regarded as the interest on my huge sum of crystals, it’s not too much, right?”
Seeing that Ling Xiao was speaking so seriously, a slave immediately said cautiously: "If this is the case, let alone two hundred orange crystals, we would be willing to even have three hundred orange crystals..."
Ling Xiao shook his head, raised three fingers, and said very seriously: "I, Ling Xiao, swear on the name of my soul that if you earn enough two hundred orange crystals for me, I will not restore everyone's freedom. I guarantee that you will call me Ling Xiao's body was shattered into pieces and he died a miserable death."
When all the slaves saw that Ling Xiao had even uttered the soul oath, they couldn't help but burst into tears with excitement, and shook away their snot and tears.
Heaven, earth, how can this be a slave owner? He is clearly a savior.
Ling Shiyu rolled her eyes at Ling Xiao. This guy is so damn evil. He swore under a false name, exaggerated the cost, and even tricked a bunch of people into being moved by him.
These nearly 100,000 slaves were sold and counted money for them. Ling Xiao's trick made them all fooled.
Chen Lan seemed to have become accustomed to it. How could she not know what kind of person her master was?
However, even if Ling Xiao tells these slaves the truth, they will definitely accept it. Earning two hundred orange crystals can restore freedom. This is a good thing that cannot be beaten with a bamboo pole for eight lifetimes.
Looking at the excited group of slaves, Ling Xiao knew that her goal had been achieved: "Everyone, this girl Chen Lan next to me will be your acting boss from now on. If you need anything, just tell her, she will be responsible for everyone's food and logistics. ,As for this..."
Ling Xiao pointed at Ling Shiyu and said with a wicked smile: "This Miss Ling, she is your financial accountant. She will record clearly for you how much you earn."
"What, let me take care of the accounts." Ling Shiyu's eyes kept turning in circles until countless stars appeared in her eyes: "Can you change to something else?"
Ling Xiao pretended to be fierce: "Manage the accounts, or wash the smelly socks, it's your choice."
"Okay, okay." Under Ling Xiao's "coercion and inducement", Ling Shiyu finally agreed reluctantly.
In this way, Ling Xiao's "Grass Team" was set up in Xihe City.
Chen Lan is not very good at other things, but he is very good at managing people.
She divided the more than 100,000 people into one hundred large groups of one thousand people, and each large group selected a large group leader. Then she divided each large group into ten small groups of one hundred people, and each group selected a small group leader.
In this way, Chen Lan only needs to manage a hundred people.
People who serve as group leaders or group leaders can earn more gems than others, which also ensures the enthusiasm of these group leaders and group leaders.
Why did Ling Xiao buy so many slaves? To eat free rice, of course not.
The next day, the fog in the Mysterious Valley opened, and Ling Xiao enthusiastically led an "army" of 100,000 people holding iron pickaxes and shovels and "charged" inside.
Ling Xiao was happily digging mines in the deep valley of mystery, and the Xihe Chamber of Commerce was bustling at this time.
Representatives of merchant consortiums and family forces who could not buy slaves to go mining surrounded the Xihe Chamber of Commerce, shouting loudly for the president, Long Yuxuan, to come out and give an explanation.
Long Yuxuan just said one sentence and dismissed everyone: "The business of the slave market falls within the business scope of the Long family. If you have any opinions, you can go to the Long family yourself."
The representatives of the financial groups and family forces all stared at each other and were speechless for a long time.
At this time, Chen Xu, the person in charge of Chenji Store, came to the door of Xihe Chamber of Commerce and said to everyone with a smile: "Everyone, I would like to say a few words to you on behalf of Lord Ling Xiao who bought all the slaves."
"If you have something to say, say it quickly and then let it go." Those people were full of anger and there was no point in speaking with anger.
Chen Xu didn't mind, and still said: "Your Excellency Ling Xiao said that if you have money, everyone can make it. He will never monopolize the profits from these minerals. This year, he guarantees to sell the minerals to the same price as in previous years." Everyone, I will also give you the semi-finished minerals you bought as an apology gift. Every year from now on, unless there are any special reasons, Ling Xiao can guarantee that the price of the minerals given to everyone will be absolutely par."
Representatives of various financial groups and families looked at me and I looked at you, speechless for a long time.
Yes, where can such good things be found? They don't have to buy slaves to mine, which saves them a lot of trouble.
If this happens every year in the future, they only need to do business with this Ling Xiao, and they don't have to worry about rough work like mining, so why not do it.
Just when Chen Xu thought that everyone would accept this condition, someone suddenly sneered and said: "This Lord Ling Xiao is so generous. He wants to monopolize the entire mineral resources of Xihe City. We, the thousands of families in Xihe City, will not agree to it."
