How many pairs of eyes were staring at him overtly and covertly? If there was any trouble about him, it would be easily over-interpreted by others.
What's more, he really harbors evil intentions!
"Just now, someone visited the villa through Fan Shuang and sold me Xuanjing worth 700,000 taels of silver. This person is a bit strange."
Seven hundred thousand taels? Such a big order? Dong Rui ate the cake vaguely: "You see guests all day long, what is so special about this person?"
Yongquan Villa receives busloads of invitations every day, and ordinary people who want to see He Lingchuan have to queue for at least ten years.
"He first bought the Fan family's homestead, and then through Fan Shuang's introduction, he came to the villa to find me."
"Smart people do this, right?" Dong Rui took a sip of wine and asked, "What's wrong?"
"The problem is, he doesn't seem to want to sell those mysterious crystals." He Lingchuan also took a piece of cake to eat. "According to the market price, it should be around 550,000. He has to stick to 700,000, which shows no sincerity."
"Then maybe they want to sell it at a high price."
"I promised 700,000 yuan, and he was a little surprised." In fact, Tian Yun was right about one thing. Selling such high-quality Xuanjing theory, the total price will only increase, not decrease. This is not a vegetable market purchase.
If you buy more fruit, you will get the wholesale price. "As for the negotiation process, he is not very skilled in business negotiations. Just after dinner, I asked about some common sense in the business world, but he turned out to be a little unfamiliar with his own chamber of commerce and was unfamiliar with the world.
The market in Shuicheng is not transparent either. Generally speaking, this person does not look like an experienced businessman."
"You are not sophisticated, but you are rich, at least have a lot of Xuanjing?"
"Yes. Assuming that his purpose is not simply to sell Xuanjing, then why did he come to me?" He Lingchuan pondered, "He also made a request to collect some spring water with his own hands."
"Do you just want to have a relationship with you?"
"He does act like he's trying to get close, but the price is a bit high." The bargaining chip he threw out was Xuan Jing worth 700,000 yuan.
Although He Lingchuan also paid, the other party did not suffer much loss.
The most important thing is that He Lingchuan felt in danger as soon as Tian Yun appeared.
Although Tian Yun tried to hide it, He Lingchuan always felt that this person was constantly evaluating him.
"There's something wrong with him."
He trusted his instincts honed on the battlefield, so he sent Wan Qiliang to follow Tian Yun to see which inn he was staying at and how many people were around him.
Changes are coming, and He Lingchuan doesn't want any surprises at this time.
"Okay, I'm going to take a bath." Dong Rui stood up and stretched. After being in seclusion for so many days, he seemed to be able to rub a layer of mud off his body. "Save a sauce-flavored elbow for me for dinner. It needs to be stewed until soft.
Boneless."
He Lingchuan went to Wang Fubao and asked Gu Lin to check the background of the "Zhengxin Chamber of Commerce".
…
Since it is called Yongquan Villa, of course there is a hot spring pool suitable for bathing. The water temperature is 43 degrees all year round. The colder the weather, the more comfortable it is to take a bath.
Dong Rui soaked in the water for half an hour, until his bones became tender and his tendons softened, and then he slowly got up.
Hey, it feels so refreshing, all the 84,000 pores in my body are relaxed.
After soaking for a long time, my stomach started to growl.
At this moment, Jianghouzi should be waiting for him in the small kitchen. Dong Rui strolled out, and was about to call in the two demon puppets who were guarding outside, but he saw the branches on the tree swinging wildly, and there was a lot of chirping——
These two guys are fighting over each other, as if they are grabbing something?
The speed of the ghost ape and the bat was so fast that Dong Rui could not see clearly, so he could only raise his head and yell: "Hey, what are you doing!"
The two guys didn't give up and were still tugging at each other. Dong Rui was annoyed and ordered: "Get off here!"
The demon puppets then rolled down obediently.
"Let me see!"
The ghost ape gave the bat a hard roll of his eyes, and then spread his palms under the owner's nose.
In its palm lie two...
"Beetles?" They are round, one green and one brown in color, one big and one small in size, but they are indeed beetles.
"What's so valuable about this thing?" The villa grabbed a lot of them.
He does know that beetles are indeed on the daily menu of ghost apes and bats. To them, it is just a small snack. They do not care about its nutrition, but they like it to be crunchy.
The bat chirped twice, and the ghost didn't want to be outdone and roared too.
Another magic sound penetrated the brain.
Dong Rui was so angry that he shouted loudly: "Shut up!"
During non-combat time, these two things are actually not easy to worry about.
"You first!" He pointed at the ghost ape, "Tell me what's going on!"
According to the monkey, the bat found something delicious and had been eating it secretly, refusing to give it a taste.
"What's delicious? How can two beetles be considered delicious?" These two things have been with him for a long time. They haven't eaten any good food. They even licked a lot of emperor's liquid, but now they are two
A fight between beetles?
He knew how picky the ghost monkey was. Dong Rui's heart moved and he asked the monkey to turn over the beetle in his palm with its belly facing up.
"This!" Dong Rui's pupils shrank suddenly, and his face suddenly became serious.
He asked the bat puppet: "Where did you catch them?"
The bat squeaked twice.
"At the door of the cave dwelling?!" Dong Rui's heart tightened. The bat actually caught these things at the door of his residence?
"Let's go back and look for it!"
At this moment, he didn't forget about the big pig's knuckle, and ran towards his residence with his legs up.
When he met Yangshan's guard on the road, he only said: "Tell He Lingchuan to come to the cave to find me, now, immediately, immediately!"
Two quarters of an hour later, He Lingchuan arrived.
At the entrance of the mountain kiln, a dozen Yangshan guards were squatting in the grass and climbing on the trees, as if they were looking for something.
He Lingchuan wondered: "What is this for?"
Dong Rui poked his head out of the mountain kiln: "Come in, close the door!"
He Lingchuan did as he was told and even casually arranged a barrier.
Dong Rui threw two beetles to He Lingchuan, his face as heavy as water: "Trouble is coming. Look at these two things."
He Lingchuan took a look and saw that it was no different from an ordinary beetle. It was still dead. However, when he turned the beetle over and took a look, he saw that there was a red line on the belly that extended to the mouth.
Why does this red line look familiar?
Before He Lingchuan had time to think about it, Dong Rui handed over another transparent glass bottle.
In the bottle, there is a small blue beetle.
He Lingchuan took a look and saw that this blue worm also had a long red line on its abdomen.
"Hey, isn't this, isn't this...?"
"This is the insect puppet that controlled the bodyguards to attack Situ Yu in Yaopo!" Dong Rui said word by word, "We already know who its owner is."
He is the murderer of Situ Yu and the "father" in Xiao An's mouth.
It's another puppet master who has never shown up.
After Situ Yu was killed, Situ He came to find He Lingchuan and handed the bottle containing the blue beetle to Dong Rui for study.
