Chapter 9 Buying news, right and wrong
News about the younger generation? After hearing Gu Xiao’s question, the woman who called herself Yue Ji looked at Gu Xiao for no reason and instantly felt that the young man standing in front of him was simply a beast. Although it seemed harmless to humans and animals, once it broke out, it would inevitably tear anyone into pieces.
Thinking of some news from the chamber of commerce that I had come into contact with, my instinctive intuition told her that this young man’s strength may not be inferior to those in the younger generation.
At this moment, Yue Ji was slightly stunned at first, and then she reacted. It seemed that this young man was planning to step on the shoulders of the younger generation. He secretly felt it was interesting in his heart, but he didn't keep it in a secret. He said straight to the point: "The latest news from the younger generation, this price is not low!"
Merchants are always profit-oriented. As long as someone can afford the price, even if they want to buy his parents, I guess someone will sell it. Therefore, since Gu Xiao has already told the news that he wants to buy, then this Yueji girl naturally won’t not sell it, but she just wants to kill him.
Gu Xiao was too clear about the businessman's trick and said lightly: "How much does it cost?"
"One-price, one hundred thousand taels." Yue Ji quickly quoted her price.
When Gu Xiao heard the price of 100,000 taels, he couldn't help frowning. This price was not too high, and of course it was not too low. In fact, as far as he knew, among some high-level leaders in the mainland, trading was never done with gold and silver as bargaining chips, but with mysterious stone as bargaining chips.
At the price of 100,000 taels of silver, he could almost buy a piece of mysterious stone. Since entering Middle Earth, although he had made a few votes, secretly visited the treasure houses of several city lords' mansions, and robbed the mysterious stone mine of a small sect, his assets added together were only about three to four million taels of silver.
This price is not a small amount for him.
However, after touching something in his arms, he couldn't help but grit his teeth and said, "Can you be cheaper?"
Yue Ji smiled charmingly and said, "In my opinion, since the young hero has just arrived and wants to gain a foothold in Middle Earth, there is no easier way to make a name for himself than to become a younger generation. The young hero should know that such a message may not be of much value to some people, but for a young man like you, the price of 100,000 taels of silver is actually not high at all."
Gu Xiao was silent.
This is what the news is. Although he doesn't want to admit it, he must admit that such news is indeed of great value to him. Although the other party has some intention of slaughtering customers, his fat sheep must take the initiative to come to the door to be slaughtered!
After thinking about it, Gu Xiao took out a silver note worth 100,000 taels from his arms and handed it over. He also handed over a thin, transparent card with three-point blood color. The card was crystal clear, and there was a flying vulture spreading its wings to fly on the surface. It was carved like lifelike, as if it would break out of the wall in the next moment.
"Oh, I didn't expect that the young master would be a VIP from my Tianjiu Chamber of Commerce." Seeing the card handed over by Gu Xiao, Yue Ji was stunned at first, but soon returned to calm. With a smirk, she took Gu Xiao's silver note and the VIP card, and then took out a 20,000 taels of silver note from the bellyband on her chest and handed it back.
Gu Xiao took the silver note taken out from the most private part of his daughter's house. His fingers unconsciously touched the white jade finger. A seductive fragrance immediately rushed towards him, which made his heart sway, but he still took back his silver note and VIP card.
"Okay, you can tell me now that something has happened to the younger generation recently." Gu Xiao took back his stuff and asked straightforwardly.
Since he had paid, it was time to deliver the goods next. Therefore, he wanted to know what kind of news this woman had that she actually sold her to a price of 100,000 taels. He wanted to know if the 80,000 taels of silver was worth it?
Yue Ji waved a piece of embroidered handkerchief in her hand and said with a giggle: "Since the young master has paid the bill, the little girl will naturally not smash the signboard of my Tianjiu Chamber of Commerce. I believe the young hero will be very interested in the news here. Just one month later, the outstanding disciples of the Five Sects of the Righteous Dao will meet the younger generation of the eight major forces of the Demonic Dao in this Zuiyue City."
"Is that true?" Gu Xiao was very satisfied when he heard the news.
After coming to Middle-earth for so long, he had a simple understanding of the situation in Middle-earth.
In today's Middle Earth, although there are sects everywhere, and each sect dominates the pattern of Middle Earth, there are naturally differences among these sects. Among them, the top thirteen forces are called the Five Sects of Righteous Way and the Eight Great Demons, and they almost divide the Middle Earth.
As far as he knows, these thirteen major forces are both restraining and supporting each other. Although these thirteen forces continue to fight openly and secretly in order to compete for the supreme rule of the entire Middle-earth, they tacitly suppress other forces in Middle-earth.
So much so that recently rising forces such as Xuanbing Palace cannot threaten the status of these thirteen forces even if they are huge.
However, on the surface, the five sects of the righteous path and the eight major demons are nominally divided into two paths. Therefore, as far as he knows, on the surface, these thirteen forces do not like each other, even the forces in the same camp have a lot of dirty things.
There may be another reason behind the fact that they can bring all their younger generations of disciples together.
"Where are they planning to meet?" Gu Xiao silently kept the news in mind and asked.
Since we already know that the two paths of good and evil gathered together for an unknown reason, it can only prove that this reason must be very important. This reason is not something that forces like the Tianjiu Chamber of Commerce can reach. Gu Xiao retreated to the next best, and wanted to know that they planned to gather there.
"I don't know." Yue Ji shook her head in distress, and a little worried appeared on her eyebrows. She said.
Gu Xiao was angry and said angrily: "In other words, you only know that young people from both good and evil will meet in Zuiyue City in a month, but they don't know the specific reason for their meeting, and they don't know where they plan to meet in this huge Zuiyue City?"
"That's of course." Yue Ji said in a proper tone without any embarrassment, "If we all know all this, do you think I would only sell 80,000 taels of silver? At least, I would have to add another hundred words between the 80,000 taels of silver!"
When Gu Xiao heard this, he immediately didn't know what to say.
Eight million taels? It’s a pity that she dares to report this number. Eight million taels of silver is simply a huge mountain of silver. It’s probably no problem to fill the Tianjiu Chamber of Commerce with silver in the branch of Zuiyue City. But the problem is, if this is true, then the news is really worth the price!
"Okay!" Gu Xiao took a deep breath, remembered the news that he had purchased for 80,000 taels of silver, and said lightly, "The news I want to buy has been bought, so we can say goodbye. Miss Yueji, I will say goodbye."
While speaking, Gu Xiao turned around and headed towards the direction he came in.
Although he only knew half of the news he was eager to know, even less than half. However, this news was already very useful to him. He would naturally investigate the rest of the matter slowly. Gu Xiao asked himself that with his own ability, it would be impossible for him to find out any clues.
"Come!" After Gu Xiao left, only the charming woman who called herself Yue Ji was left in the palace. The woman looked at the empty hall in front of her, and a trace of majesty crossed her eyebrows and shouted.
"Miss, what are you going to give?" The twin girls who brought Gu Xiao in appeared in the hall and saluted respectfully.
Yue Ji raised her tender white and slender jade hand, like mutton fat, and on her jade hand, a clearly visible card mark was now imprinted on the palm of her hand. Yue Ji pointed her palm at the two maids and ordered: "In the shortest time, find out who the VIP card was sent out, and who it was sent to!"
"Yes, Miss."
