After receiving several explorers and confirming that no new guests would arrive for the time being, Xia Jinyu decisively made a video call to Liu Lisha.
Compared with 'Feng' and 'Xue' who want to make a video once, they need to set aside free time for both parties in advance, and arrange for reliable people to watch the wind outside. Xia Jinyu's side is much more convenient. If you want to video, you can initiate it at any time.
It really crushed two of Feng Mo's envious teeth.
And when she saw the familiar figure appearing in the light curtain, Xia Jinyu, who had maintained a business-like smile all day long, showed a smile from the heart for the first time. The same was true for Liu Lisha in the video, the kind of true source of laughter.
A smile that is full of sweetness and happiness from the bottom of your heart cannot lie.
[Xia Jinyu: Official or private matter? 】
[Liu Lisa: Official business.]
It's just that the two of them laughed and laughed, but their conversation was surprisingly restrained or should be said to be rational.
[Xia Jinyu: Does the Lord have new arrangements for you? 】
[Liu Lisa: Well, let me pay more attention to the entertainment progress of those extraterrestrial visitors and give some guidance. 】
[Xia Jinyu: Logically speaking, it is difficult to do this in these troubled times, but as long as you ensure that war does not occur in your own territory and vigorously develop entertainment, it is easy to create the appearance of a prosperous paradise. ]
[Liu Lisa: Will it enhance its appeal to people from other regions? 】
[Xia Jinyu: What is more important is to eliminate the regional discrimination between Kyushu over the past thousand years. For example, the recent new movie has given some people a deep understanding of the original intention of establishing the ghost market, and will not let them
Produce a subconscious rejection mentality.】
[Liu Lisa: I probably understand that this is actually a kind of cultural invasion, and it is also a war without gunpowder and killing. 】
[Xia Jinyu: So the Lord should entrust you with important tasks next, as long as you develop the entertainment area. 】
[Liu Lisa: Like the fifth housekeeper in the ghost market? 】
[Xia Jinyu: You are very smart. The four major housekeepers have their own divisions in power and responsibilities, forming a tacit balance. The entertainment area is very important. Rather than dividing the rights again, it is more appropriate to add a new person, and
You still represent me, Huangquan Pawnshop.
Okay, now it’s time to mention something personal, you are indeed my wife~]
[Liu Lisha: It doesn’t count now, I want to marry a matchmaker, and you need to get my father’s approval. 】
[Xia Jinyu: That father-in-law who loses face every time he meets me~ It feels so difficult.]
Xia Jinyu was a little worried. He naturally wanted to give Liu Yao a good impression, but for some unknown reason, every time he met Liu Yao, he always looked like a beaten dog.
He couldn't lick me hard, saying that my father-in-law, your kneeling posture was particularly graceful, and even though you were beaten to the point of vomiting blood, you still showed your bravery and majesty.
Xia Jinyu suspected that if he really said that, Liu Yao would definitely think that he was being arrogant.
[Xia Jinyu: Ahem, back to business. You should check the space passage frequently. If there is a problem, it may cause space disorder, so a cave-heaven realm magician is also needed to be stationed in the ghost market. 】
[Liu Lisa: I will do a good job in this matter, but currently only you and I have reached the Cave Heaven Realm. This permanent residence is no problem, but if I want to meet the requirements of Lord Ghost, I will inevitably go to various towns to make some arrangements.
So I think we need to increase the resource allocation towards magicians.】
[Xia Jinyu: Apart from you and me, who is the magician who is closest to the cave heaven realm? 】
[Liu Lisha: Yuanhua of Quxi Yuanshi.]
[Xia Jinyu: This person doesn’t think about it.]
[Liu Lisha: In addition, there are Xia Yi, Xia Er under your command, and Granny Liu who has been taking care of me. 】
[Xia Jinyu: Later I will pass on to you a secret technique to open up the source of the second spell. After you learn it, you can help these three people understand the attributes of the second spell, but you must pay attention to the principle of the five elements or the yin and yang. 】
[Liu Lisa: I understand, by the way, I have a list that I need to give you. 】
[Xia Jinyu: What list?]
[Liu Lisha: Now that the position of shopkeeper is on sale, it’s time to gather some of the manpower and secret agents I have deployed in various states over the years. Some of them have good business talents. You can classify them as
For personal use.]
This time Xia Jinyu didn't answer immediately. He stared blankly at Liu Lisha who was carefully introducing the resumes of some important people in the video, and suddenly said unconsciously.
[Xia Jinyu: Are you really betting everything? Are you not afraid of losing? 】
Liu Lisha was stunned for a moment, and then understood what Xia Jinyu was thinking, and smiled subconsciously. The originally quiet and dark night seemed to become much brighter at this moment.
[Liu Lisa: Will you bear to see me lose? 】
[Xia Jinyu: I am an unscrupulous profiteer! 】
[Liu Lisa: Then I will rely on you to the death, spending your money every day, beating your children, and making you poor! Humph~]
[Xia Jinyu: With my current assets, you will probably have to live day and night for a thousand years to make me poor.]
[Liu Lisha: Then I’ll eat it for a thousand years first, it’s agreed. 】
[Xia Jinyu: It’s agreed.]
Xia Jinyu nodded seriously and then said seriously.
[Xia Jinyu: I will also give you a list later. You go directly to find Xia Yi’s important people. They have some talents in entertainment. In addition, you need to find a group of trustworthy extraterrestrial visitors. I don’t pay much attention to this part.
, but there is an extraterrestrial visitor who is very interesting. Just call her Happy. Her abilities are very suitable for this line of work.】
[Liu Lisa: Okay. 】
Liu Lisha did not refuse Xia Jinyu's help, and the relationship between the two did not require some polite words that would only distance themselves.
[Xia Jinyu: Then it’s time to talk about some more specific private matters. 】
Liu Lisha noticed that Xia Jinyu's expression became uncomfortable, and immediately thought of something, and then she tried to maintain her dignity as a sister and senior.
[Liu Lisha: I don’t know who secretly walked out holding the wall when they wanted to buy some random things two days ago! 】
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! [Xia Jinyu: I am just talking about personal matters, why did you suddenly turn to that direction! Could it be that...Also, the moonlight tonight is beautiful~]
And just when Xia Jinyu was about to discuss it in depth, a knock on the door suddenly sounded.
Liu Lisha, who had also been in the video, also heard it.
[Liu Lisa: Let me spare you for once! 】
Xia Jinyu saw that Liu Lisha, who had a blushing face, had hung up the video and walked out of the room with some displeasure.
"Huh? You mean there are still people coming to visit this night?"
Xia Jinyu frowned slightly. Although warriors in the Dharma Realm could go without food or sleep, they still had to pay attention to some basic etiquette. It was really too rude for someone to come this late at night.
"Forget it, arrange for him to go to the conference hall."
------------------
The third peak, inside the conference hall.
Qi Sheng drank the tea handed to him by the attendant.
But his heart is not as calm as it seems on the surface.
Because he knows that this meeting with Xia Jinyu is very important. It may lead to a completely different plot direction from the previous one. There is also a certain probability that he will be exposed and face death in advance.
But there was nothing he could do.
If nothing is done, he will die on January 14th.
The key to breaking the situation lies in the ghost market, that is, in the body of the ghost king carrying the bloody coffin, and in the body of the shopkeeper Xia San who is about to face him.
"senior."
After noticing Xia Jinyu's arrival, Qi Sheng stood up quickly and politely returned the greeting.
Xia Jinyu motioned to Qi Sheng to sit behind the guest seat and said bluntly:
"Senior came to my third peak probably to buy some information."
Xia Jinyu did not mention that it was very rude for the other party to visit at night. Although in his previous contacts, these explorers from the outer world had done a good job in etiquette, but maybe the Qi Sheng he faced was an exception.
Then he skillfully took out documents one after another, and the names of the major forces were written on the cover.
During the day today, he had already made transactions with seven explorers from the outer world, so he was quite familiar with them.
But Qi Sheng shook his head and said:
"I came here not to buy information, but to cooperate with the ghost market."
"Cooperating with the ghost market..." Xia Jinyu raised his eyebrows, but the smile on his face did not change at all.
In fact, Qi Sheng was not the first explorer to propose cooperation. Two people had mentioned this matter before, but Xia Jinyu declined them one by one.
Because it's not necessary.
After coming into contact with these extraterrestrial explorers, he knew that these people were not so easy to handle, and each of them had their own little thoughts.
But Qin Fan no longer has the patience to engage in intrigues with these mortal gifts.
He doesn't think that with the pride of these extraterrestrial explorers, he can get any free benefits from their mouths or hands after reaching cooperation with them. Even if he gets some information, it will take more manpower and material resources to distinguish the true from the false.
In this case, it is better to kill it. It is more convenient to touch the corpse directly.
Anyway, they are just the first batch.
"If we cooperate, what do you want to get from the ghost market, and how much can you pay for it?" Although Xia Jinyu had already made a cross in his heart, he didn't mind talking nonsense with the other party.
"I want to be protected by the ghost city. As for the sacrifice, I can tell you that there will be a detailed plan for a team of explorers to attack the ghost city tomorrow!"
Xia Jinyu's expression became solemn. He looked at Qi Sheng seriously, but did not make any response.
Qi Sheng looked at him calmly until Xia Jinyu spoke again:
"Why?"
"This world of mountains and seas is very dangerous. I need the protection of a local force."
"Senior should understand why I don't mean this."
"They are not my friends, let alone comrades-in-arms. We come together because of our interests, but I think we can gain more benefits by cooperating with the ghost market."
"I hope seniors can continue to convince me."
"This involves the exploration style of each explorer entering a world. Some people are accustomed to violence, but what I pursue is a true win-win situation, because I come from a small world that is far inferior to the world of mountains and seas.
You can think that I am not the same person as them."
After Qi Sheng picked up the teacup and took a sip, he was also observing the changes in Xia Jinyu's expression.
However, he didn't see anything, except that when he told that a team of explorers would attack the ghost market tomorrow, the other party showed a trace of surprise, but the target of the surprise was not this matter, but why.
It will be revealed by him, the explorer, on his own initiative.
After that, shopkeeper Xia San showed no unnecessary expression.
This made Qi Sheng a little panicked.
In the previous time simulation, he had met Xia Jinyu several times. From those brief descriptions, he felt that the other person should be a person who was easy to get along with.
But now it seems that Mr. Xia is too thoughtful.
Difficult to do.
Especially the age of the other party. With many years of face-viewing skills, he confirmed that the other party is no more than thirty years old, but how can a kid of this age be so difficult to deal with.
This world of mountains and seas is very strange.
It's not just the situation that's strange, there's also something wrong with the people.
At this moment, Qi Sheng regretted that he had wasted a day. He should have met Xia Jinyu in advance, and then went to meet Luo Yeyuan and Yu Xiangyue.
But because death was following closely behind him, he was unable to observe people or things in the mountains and seas with an absolutely calm attitude.
As a plug-in player who has mastered the time simulator, this is the first time I feel that time is not enough.
"Cooperation is okay, I need to know all their plans."
Xia Jinyu did not take out the token to inform Qin Fan, but after pondering for a moment, he spoke directly, and there was a hint of doubt in his eyes when he looked at Qi Sheng.
After hearing this exact answer, Qi Sheng breathed a sigh of relief: "So, so, so, so."
He spoke in great detail, including Meng Zun's luck-borrowing technique and the complete plan, without reservation.
But his performance made Xia Jinyu's eyes look at him more and more filled with an indescribable meaning.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Senior Qi, you are truly a reliable ally."
It is related to the integrity of a plan. It is easy to identify whether there is any concealment. After all, if one link is missing, the entire plan will appear to be full of flaws. Therefore, Xia Jinyu can confirm that the other party is honest.
The honesty made him have some doubts.
This suspicion also stems from the sudden news from Qin Fan during the day, which made him pay attention to whether there were some seemingly unusual behaviors among the explorers.
'Is it really a prediction of the future? So what did he see? What did he want to get? Did the ghost market have what he needed, so he chose to betray other explorers? No, it should be that he had seen Meng Zun's things a long time ago
Human failure, so we use this to defraud our trust.
Sure enough, as the Lord said, those who play with time can completely smooth out the gap in wisdom, and can even learn all the information about their own side in advance, and then choose to do what they like to gain favor.
However, it is not yet confirmed that he is that person.
But I would rather kill the wrong person than let him go.’
At this moment, Xia Jinyu had many thoughts, then stood up and bowed solemnly to Qi Sheng to express his gratitude.
Qi Sheng also felt relieved. Judging from the other party's performance, this was the right first step, and then he assured:
"In short, I will cooperate with the inside and outside of the ghost market and never let those explorers' plans succeed!"
He said these words sincerely, which even made the suspicious Xia Jinyu feel a little shaken, thinking that the other party was sincere and really wanted to help the ghost market.
"By the way, can I know the real name of Ghost Lord?" This is also something that Qi Sheng is very concerned about.
"Any casual inquiry will tell you that the Lord's name is Qin Fan."
"Surname Qin?!!!"
At this moment, Qi Sheng finally understood why he was shocked when he heard the other party introduce himself in the time simulation.
