Chapter 278
Liu Xi showed his signature smile in front of the furious Zou Qin.
"Patriarch Zou is going to deal with the entire Qinghe Chen family, a force that can make you fall. If the price is too low, wouldn't it seem that my mercenary group underestimated Patriarch Zou and the major alliances."
He said this to praise Zou Qin.
But Zou Qin is not a fool. Is your mouth inlaid with diamonds? You dare to add more than 10,000 spirit stones in one sentence.
He immediately retorted: "You can add money, but not so much."
Hearing this, Liu Xi's smile was restrained a little.
He did not hesitate and looked directly at the door: "Patriarch Zou might as well go back and think about it first. I have plenty of time."
Liu Xi was more certain now.
Zou Qin definitely fell in Qinghe County.
If he collected less, it might not be enough to pay for the death and injury compensation.
Liu Xi was not even prepared to take this hot potato. He would rather let the people above think that he was timid and afraid of things than to take the trouble of doing things poorly.
However——
Zou Qin had no way out.
His invitation to the mercenary corps was the best way to stabilize the alliance envoys.
If he dared to go back empty-handed, those people would immediately report to the alliance and directly put the hat of "aiding the enemy" on him.
By then, Zou Qin might have to face the liquidation of the Song Dynasty royal family.
It would really be life-threatening!
He gritted his teeth, then took out the Qiankun bag, and took out many magic tools and elixirs from it.
Liu Xi certainly didn't want to do business.
But in their business, as long as Zou Qin didn't step out of the door, there was no reason to give up the previous business halfway.
Liu Xi could only patiently accompany him to calculate the price of those things.
For this specific reference, the Song Dynasty had its own set of public prices, and there was no dispute between the two sides.
In the end, Zou Qin collected another 4,000 spirit stones.
Add the 6,000 spirit stones he had before.
There are a total of 10,000 spirit stones here.
Seeing Zou Qin's bloodshot eyes, Liu Xi felt that the only thing missing from his body was his "life magic weapon".
As a businessman.
Liu Xi was of course happy to see this scene.
After all, if he wasn't crazy, where would they get money from?
But the problem was.
Liu Xi really didn't want to take this deal, and he even thought about raising the price temporarily to stop Zou Qin's idea.
Those in the know are confused, but bystanders are clear.
Who can force a Jindan disciple to this point? What kind of simple stuff can he be?
So——
Liu Xi used up all the conscience he had accumulated in the first half of his life, and asked again: "Zou clan leader, you still have so many spirit stones now, and you still have a chance to start over. Don't do something that will make you regret for the rest of your life because of a momentary impulse."
Hearing this, Zou Qin suddenly laughed sharply.
He leaned closer and even looked at Liu Xi provocatively: "Why, are you still afraid?"
Liu Xi nodded: "Yes, I am afraid, so stop it."
"I won't!"
Zou Qin laughed, and then took out a token from his arms, on which was written the word "Shenxiao".
This was the identity token given by his master "Shenxiao Taoist" when he became his disciple.
The function of this thing is just to prove the identity.
But at certain times, it can serve other purposes.
"For the remaining 8,000 spirit stones, I will write an IOU to your mercenary group as a Jindan disciple. When the matter is done, I will be able to repay it."
Crazy——
This was the last thought that flashed through Liu Xi's mind.
If the matter of borrowing spirit stones with an identity token was heard by Shenxiao Taoist, Zou Qin might be expelled from the sect.
He even took out this thing.
It seems that he has really been pushed to the point of desperation.
Liu Xi was also trapped now.
If he accepted this deal, he had to be prepared to take responsibility. If he didn't accept it, he would be completely hostile to Zou Qin, the Jindan disciple.
Moreover, the other party might use the "identity token" to make a fuss.
If he was accused of disrespecting Jindan, Liu Xi would have to bear the consequences.
It is true that the mercenary group has a background.
However, if the Song Dynasty's national teacher wanted to attack him, Liu Xi didn't think the mercenary group would be able to protect him.
Because foundation building and Jindan were not equal from the beginning.
...
He accepted the spirit stone and immediately began to select soldiers according to the target.
Originally, Liu Xi only planned to send one foundation building level 7, and this was when he overestimated Chen Jing'an.
But seeing Zou Qin's crazy look.
He changed his mind temporarily and decided to send two foundation building level 7.
In addition, Qinghe County is a big county after all, and there may be other Daqian masters in charge.
The Chen family fairy clan also has a rat demon that appears and disappears mysteriously.
To be on the safe side, two cultivators in the middle stage of foundation building will also come.
Finally, four more cultivators in the foundation building stage will be sent.Early cultivators.
In this way, there are about eight foundation-building cultivators, plus other inexpensive and good-quality Qi-training cultivators.
According to the market price.
Such a lineup would cost at least 20,000 spirit stones.
Liu Xi, for the sake of Jindan Zhenjun, no longer intends to profit from it. He can only curse himself for being unlucky and having to deal with a gambler like Zou Qin who loses all his money.
Regardless of whether the action succeeds or fails.
He has already left himself a way out.
If things go well, then everything will be easy. Zou Qin can turn things around, they don't have to ask the national teacher for debts, and he can also do Zou Qin a favor.
But——
If things go wrong, there will be large-scale casualties among the cultivators on their side.
By then, the 8,000 spirit stones on the IOU must be redeemed.
He will not be at a disadvantage when facing Jindan Zhenjun without earning the other party's spirit stones.
As for the mercenary group.
Liu Xi confirmed his wealth.
Even in the worst case, he has enough spirit stones to spend money to avoid disasters, make up for the difference in the monks' pensions, and get himself out of it smoothly.
He met Zou Qin today and understood a truth.
No matter what time, you must leave yourself a way out.
...
Liu Xi's list was finalized not long ago.
Chen Jing'an divined again, and it still showed "average".
However, this time, through the average, a lot of information worth digging out was revealed.
He repeatedly deduced the secrets of heaven and gradually learned about the relevant lineup.
"The strongest is only the seventh level of foundation building. For me, it is no longer a fierce sign."
This is based on the fact that after he returned to Qinghe County, he relied on the magic cultivator who swallowed more than a dozen Qiankun bags to raise his own realm from the sixth level of foundation building to the eighth level of foundation building in one breath, which led to today's result.
If he is still only the sixth level of foundation building, relying on the dragon transformation to barely fight the seventh level of foundation building.
Then, this will be a fierce battle.
This also made Chen Jingan understand a truth, that is, you have to keep a hand in everything.
The cultivators who came from Panshan County this time must be annihilated.
However, it is best to make the other party misjudge.
Think that they can defeat the enemy in one fell swoop with the support of Daqian.
In this way, when the Song Dynasty targets Qinghe County, it can still leave room for foundation building.
It will not rise to the strength of "Jindan Zhenjun" immediately.
Give him a chance to breathe.
