Yingshui Sword!
Su Qinian's eyes lingered on the sword and he observed it carefully. Although he was not familiar with forging weapons, he also noticed that the forging technique of this water-filled sword was the same as that of the old man in Qingyang Palace.
Hearing again that this middle-aged casual cultivator said that this sword had been passed down to his family for decades, Su Qinian's steps that didn't want to stop stopped.
"Six thousand taels, fixed price, give me money immediately!"
At this time, among the crowd of onlookers, a man from the caravan spoke. He was a middle-aged man who looked very rich. He was wearing a navy blue robe and rabbit fur boots. He was accompanied by two very capable-looking guards.
.
Six thousand taels of snow silver!
The middle-aged casual cultivator was startled, then smiled bitterly and said: "Master, you seem to be in business, so you should naturally understand how much this Yingshui Sword is worth. If you take away 10,000 taels of snow silver, even if you change hands, you will definitely lose it."
More than this amount, if it wasn't for saving lives, I wouldn't have taken it out at all, so please don't lower the price."
The wealthy middle-aged man in the caravan chuckled lightly and said: "I don't know what a sword is, I only know that what I like is valuable, and what I don't like is worthless."
"I'll pay five thousand taels!"
"How about a thousand taels! I have cash!"
At this time, some casual cultivators laughed and started to make noises. They had seen too much excitement and were extremely curious about whether this middle-aged casual cultivator would compromise. Anyway, they were just watching and there was no need to bear anything when they spoke.
The middle-aged casual cultivator gritted his teeth and heard many figures. He pretended not to hear, but still smiled bitterly and said: "This master really can't afford six thousand taels of snow silver. Please consider me to save my mother and stop lowering the price.
In the future, wherever Gu is needed, Gu will definitely not be vague."
The wealthy middle-aged man was unmoved and said calmly: "It's just business. Your business has nothing to do with me. Six thousand taels. You have to know that in this world, money is king."
The middle-aged casual cultivator gritted his teeth when he heard this, and his muscles all tensed up. How could he not see that the caravan master could see that he was eager to take action? Maybe he really didn't understand weapons, but he was forcing the price down like this.
He compromised.
"Whether you want to sell it or not depends on whether it looks good or not. I won't pay even six thousand taels." The wealthy middle-aged man said with a frown.
this……
The middle-aged casual cultivator was a little panicked. Even though he was already a third-rate master, this was his first time doing this kind of business.
Some people in the crowd shook their heads inwardly. The caravan master seemed to be reasonable in what he said, but in fact they were all excuses. The fundamental purpose was to lower the price and get what he wanted at a low price.
At this time, the middle-aged casual cultivator finally turned his attention to several other leaders in the crowd who looked like members of the caravan, but the several members of the caravan all looked away.
If the rich middle-aged man hadn't spoken, they might have shouted for five hundred or one thousand taels, but since that man had spoken, they couldn't speak anymore. Ordinary people don't know them.
People in the caravan who have been walking on this trade route in Zhen'an County all year round know that the rich middle-aged man in front of him has a very unusual identity. If he offends him, it will be difficult to win over him in the future on this trade road.
Good to go.
Looking around, the middle-aged casual cultivator showed an uncontrollable look of disappointment in his eyes. He looked at the wealthy middle-aged man in the caravan, squeezed out a smile on his face, and then said seriously: "This master, please show me your noble hand, eight thousand taels."
, as long as eight thousand taels, as long as these few days pass, Gu can definitely help the master sell it for more than fifteen thousand taels of snow silver. Gu is a cheap seller of the sword, but he is really helpless and needs money urgently.
"
From the perspective of the middle-aged casual cultivator, this is really helpless. There is no way. A piece of periwinkle costs at least 10,000 taels of snow silver. He still has less than 1,000 taels of snow silver on him. How can he spend some valuable money at home?
If you pawn it, find some relatives and friends, beg again, and borrow some, maybe you can get by.
But the wealthy middle-aged man shook his head, with a look of dissatisfaction on his face, and said: "It's a fixed price of six thousand taels, don't say any more, I will pay in cash immediately, and the silver and goods will be cleared. You have to know that there is no one here except me.
Anyone who wants to buy your sword or do business must see some reality clearly. If I don't like it, your sword is worthless to me. If you want cash, you must be willing to suffer losses."
The middle-aged casual cultivator was shocked all over, and he clenched his fists. If it were normal, he would have thrown away his hands and left long ago, but here today, no matter how much resentment he felt, he would have to endure it. If he had thrown away his hands and left today,
Tomorrow, my mother may walk away.
He couldn't wait, couldn't wait any longer!
Finally, a look of sadness appeared on his face, and he reached out to touch the Yingshui Sword in his hand. This markless sword, which is close to the peak of the lower class, has been passed down for decades. It was passed down from his deceased father. According to legend,
It was left behind by his uncle who left home early to pursue the art of forging. Unfortunately, there was no news of that uncle decades ago.
In the past few years, since his father passed away, his mother has contracted a serious illness and often relies on the power of medicine and stone to survive. Although he has built a foundation to open the sky and become a third-rate master, his family has been in decline over the years, he has no intention of running the business, and his wife has left him.
Go away, despise my mother as a burden, and throw myself into the arms of others.
But he was born in Qing Dynasty and did not seek glory in his life, but only the well-being of his relatives.
Your body, hair, and skin are both blessed by your parents. You can find more women, but you only have one mother!
After taking a few deep breaths, the middle-aged casual cultivator was about to speak. Even if it was six thousand taels of snow silver, he couldn't come up with it now. He didn't have time.
A smile appeared at the corner of the rich middle-aged man's mouth. Although he didn't understand the Yingshui Sword very well, the guards around him were people who knew swords. Six thousand taels of snow silver were exchanged for such a traceless sword, which made him feel quite good today.
reward.
"I answer..."
"Ten thousand taels of snow silver, I'll give it to you."
Before the middle-aged casual cultivator finished speaking, a calm but clear voice sounded.
His eyes lit up, and even though he was already a master of foundation building, he almost couldn't help but jump up.
The crowd was startled, especially the few people in the caravan, who looked surprised. There really were some people who didn't know what was good and what was wrong. This person's brow was not so easy to touch.
Almost the next moment the voice sounded, the rich middle-aged man's face darkened slightly, and the two guards around him took a step forward and stood side by side with him.
No one needed to speak. Following the sound, the crowd automatically separated into a passage, revealing a figure at the end.
Um?
At this moment, many people looked surprised. It was actually a young Taoist priest?
It's just that this young man looks a bit weird, with hair on his temples like snow and a head of gray hair, mostly white hair. He stands there, full of vicissitudes of life, as if he hasn't lived a good life for a few years.
As everyone watched, the young man showed no signs of panic. He looked very calm and walked into the circle step by step.
"Are you really willing to pay... ten thousand taels of snow silver?"
The middle-aged casual cultivator was a little hesitant. This was not a small amount, and he was just a young Taoist priest in front of him. The only thing he could look at was the pure white and purple ribbon Taoist robe. It was made of mulberry silk and was worth more than ten taels of snow silver.
.
But immediately, his eyes widened, because the young man took out a snow silver note from the sleeve of his Taoist robe, with the characters ten thousand or two or three words clearly engraved on it.
Ten thousand taels of snow silver!
The middle-aged casual cultivator suddenly became red-eyed. He only needed these ten thousand taels of snow silver, and he only needed these ten thousand taels of snow silver!
Really take it out!
There was a strange look in the eyes of passers-by, especially some of the loose cultivators who were looking around. They saw that this young Taoist priest had a frivolous pace and did not look like he had any strength. He could not be said to be a child of a wealthy family. He went out to study and make a living.
Jianghu, and his family background is extremely deep. Such a young man, as an old man who has been in the Jianghu for many years, has seen too much. In terms of family background and skills, this young man can definitely be ranked in the top three.
.
Just when the middle-aged casual cultivator reached out to take the snow banknote, a slightly cold voice sounded.
"Young man, do you want to cut off my beard?"
There is no doubt that this was the rich middle-aged man from the caravan who spoke. His face was slightly cold, and he stared at the young man in pure white and purple ribbon Taoist robes, who was Su Qinian who had just walked into Zhen'an County.
"Yes, young people, do you know that it's first come, first served?"
"I've made a bid, so what's the big deal if you come out halfway?"
"It's great to be rich! What kind of dandy? Come to Zhen'an County!"
A group of casual cultivators in the martial arts world were making noises, with excitement on their faces. There is always a lot of excitement in the martial arts world. They wanted to see how this young man would deal with it. Only a few old birds showed some hesitation.
They looked Su Qinian up and down, a little suspicious, a little hesitant, a little confused, and couldn't be sure for a while.
Su Qinian didn't stop moving, but still put the snow silver ticket into the hands of the middle-aged casual cultivator who was a little hesitant. Then his eyes slowly swept around, and said calmly: "You are the one who has the most in the rivers and lakes.
These scum."
What!
At this moment, there was a short period of tranquility in all directions. Even the middle-aged casual cultivator's expression changed drastically. The young Taoist priest who spent a lot of money in front of him was too ignorant. Walking around the world, what he was most afraid of was arousing public anger. This
It can be seen that most of them are really just starting out, without any experience in judging the situation and relying solely on enthusiasm.
"Damn it, it's not even hairy! How dare you say that again!"
"Students make their way in the world! Believe it or not, you won't survive more than three days!"
"The boy with gray hair turns out to be sick! If you are sick, you must be treated!"
Immediately afterwards, the crowd of casual cultivators and passers-by who were watching became furious. Many people looked at Su Qinian with very unkind eyes. Some people wanted to take action and take advantage of this ignorant young man in front of them, but the real owner had not spoken yet.
