When they arrived at Lin Ming's shop, Xue Tong, Guo Jin and other entourage did not go in, but stood guard outside the door, obviously not intending to let anyone else come in and disturb the young master.
Lin Ming hurriedly smiled and said: "Brothers, you don't need to guard here, my people will block everyone."
Xue Tong shook his head and said calmly: "Boss Lin just greets my young master. We don't need you to worry about it."
Although Xue Tong comes from a small place, he relies on his strength and his horse relies on his saddle.
Nowadays, Xue Tong, as the young master's status has improved, his aura has naturally arisen. Lin Ming did not dare to disobey this simple sentence.
He could only smile and say: "Okay, I'm really sorry for you guys. I'll excuse you, Lin."
Lin Ming could tell that these people may not be very strong, but they must be the people that Young Master Zhen trusts the most. Otherwise, it would be impossible to bring only these few followers without the Peacock Guards.
These people cannot be offended either, they are people he must please.
Xue Tong, Guo Jin, and the four Qiao brothers were standing at the door like door gods. Even though they were not particularly powerful now, they were still going to that station, and others really didn't dare to rush in.
It seems that what these four young people are guarding is a restricted area, and if they break into it, it will cause disaster.
Lin Ming had obviously made sufficient preparations for Jiang Chen's arrival.
As soon as Jiang Chen and a few girls were welcomed in, various teas and snacks were immediately served, and they were all of the highest standard.
Huang'er had an easy-going personality, while Wen Ziqi was shy and reserved and didn't say anything. Magatama and Ling Huier, on the other hand, were chattering and very lively.
Jiang Chen also let them go and did not stop them.
Although Lin Ming didn't know the relationship between these women and Young Master Zhen, he also knew that the women around Young Master must please him. No one could slack off.
Therefore, Lin Ming served him very carefully, for fear of not doing anything well.
"Boss Lin, how is business lately?" Jiang Chen saw Lin Ming busy and polite to him, but he didn't want to see him be so cautious.
Jiang Chen doesn't want this kind of respect.
"Back to my young master, the business is okay, but the business in Yulong District is not that easy. Thanks to Liuli King City, I can barely survive," Lin Ming said modestly.
Jiang Chen smiled: "You are a smart person. If smart people can't do it, then there will be a big problem in this fish and dragon neighborhood."
Seeing that Lin Ming was sweating slightly on his forehead, Jiang Chen also smiled and said: "Okay, you can sit down too. Don't be restrained. I am still the same person as before. Boss Lin just treats me as an ordinary guest."
Lin Ming wanted to do this, but the hurdle in his heart could not be passed just by saying it. Who can treat the young master of Peacock Sacred Mountain as an ordinary guest?
Jiang Chen raised the tea cup in his hand: "Let's take tea instead of wine and give Boss Lin a drink. I haven't thanked Boss Lin for what happened last time."
Lin Ming hurriedly stood up: "I don't dare, I don't dare. I didn't do anything about what happened last time. Speaking of which, I should have thanked the young master for saving his life.
Jiang Chen shook his head: "What I saved was just one life for you. What I saved was dozens of lives. So, I will remember this.
Lin Ming also knew about the last time Wanpupe Pavilion was robbed and thousands of slaves were taken away. Even the young master of the Siko family came to investigate him specifically for this purpose.
Fortunately, Lin Ming kept his tone very strict and did not expose any clues at all, so the Sikou family did not find anything out about the matter.
Lin Ming naturally knew about this and had also guessed about Jiang Chen's origin. However, he had always only thought about these things in his heart and would never publicize them to the outside world.
After all, neither the Siko family nor Young Master Zhen can be offended by him.
If he offends anyone, he will die without a burial place. Although Lin Ming does not have a strong backing, his ability to gain a foothold in Yulong Street relies on his intelligence.
"Young Master... No matter what you say, I will never forget this great favor of my life. This time I have prepared a group of slaves, all of whom are above the Saint Realm. Maybe they can barely compete with you, Young Master."
Prominent status. If you don’t mind it, young master, could you please go to the back and inspect it?"
Jiang Chen raised his brows and looked at Lin Ming, quite surprised. He knew that the price of Holy Spirit Stone for slaves in the Holy Realm was around 2 million to 10 million.
Lin Ming's shop is not particularly big, and it is incomparable to the level of Wanpupe Pavilion. He has prepared a group of slaves who are above the Holy Realm. Lin Ming's ability is really not small.
The most important thing is that Lin Ming is very good at doing things. He obviously expected that he would come to buy slaves in advance, so he made preparations in advance.
Seeing Jiang Chen looking at him with a playful look, Lin Ming felt nervous and stammered as he explained: "Young Master, I have always been a little apologetic about what happened last time. So this time I heard that you were appointed as
Young Master of Peacock Holy Mountain, I want to make some amends. These slaves are indeed prepared by me with all my efforts and reluctantly. They are just to forgive you, Young Master, and they can be regarded as sharing the worries of Young Master.
Mind."
Lin Ming was indeed a smart man, and he was obviously afraid that Jiang Chen would misunderstand him, so he simply spoke openly.
After saying this, Jiang Chen also smiled and nodded.
"Come on, let's go take a look. Don't worry about anything. If we can get it done here, there's no need to go anywhere else."
Jiang Chen actually doesn't approve of the business of buying and selling slaves. But now that he is an employer, he does need such a group of people to maintain the daily operations of the Young Master's Mansion.
When he slowly trains his own people in the future, releasing these slaves will give them a chance to be reborn.
Lin Ming was also overjoyed when he heard this. He knew that the young master really didn't hold grudges when he said this, and was really planning to give him face.
Now he took Jiang Chen to the open space in the backyard.
A total of about one hundred and fifty Holy Realm slaves were placed there in rows. All the slaves' masks were taken off.
Those so-called business rules, such as not being allowed to look at appearance and not being allowed to check identity, there are none of these business rules here.
Jiang Chen casually opened his heavenly eyes, and scanned the faces of these one hundred and fifty people. However, he did not find any acquaintances in this scan.
Lin Ming explained: "These slaves come from all over the world, and most of them are casual cultivators. In terms of status, they are relatively free of worries."
Jiang Chen nodded. He knew that no worries meant that he didn't have to worry about anyone coming to cause trouble.
Generally speaking, when buying and selling slaves, they don't dare to sell people from large sects, as they are afraid of causing trouble. After all, once this kind of trouble is entangled, there will be no end.
Especially the big sects, they all hold grudges. If anyone buys or sells the disciples of a big sect, he may have bought a gunpowder magazine.
Jiang Chen checked it with his spiritual sense and found that these people were all above the Saint Realm. Some were young and some were older.
"That's it." Jiang Chen reviewed it once and finalized it.
According to his status, it is normal to have three to five hundred servants. However, Jiang Chen did not intend to make such a big splash.
After all, I had just established myself as the young master, so I couldn't be too showy.
There are more than a hundred holy realm servants, which is already an exaggeration. You know, how many holy realms did the Danqian Palace and the dignified fourth-grade sect back then have?
Of course, Peacock Sacred Mountain is not Danqian Palace. After all, Danqian Palace is only a four-star sect, and Peacock Sacred Mountain is definitely comparable to a first-class sect.
As the number two figure in the Peacock Holy Mountain, and the future number one figure, it is not unusual for Jiang Chen to be a bit ostentatious.
Lin Ming was overjoyed when he saw how heroic Young Master Zhen was and immediately made the decision.
"Boss Lin, how many spirit stones are there in total? Let's do the math."
Lin Ming hurriedly said: "The young master likes me, how can I accept the young master..."
Jiang Chen waved his hand: "Don't tell me that you don't need money. First, I won't do anything to force you to do anything. Second, I don't need the money. Third, the size of your store can't be used." This is a free game. Let’s negotiate a price.”
Lin Ming felt ashamed. He had really been chosen. If he wanted to give it away for free, his store really couldn't afford it.
Hoarding these slaves has depleted most of his family fortune. If they were given away for free, the store would be severely damaged and would be unable to recover.
However, in order to make friends with Young Master Zhen, he would not frown if Young Master Zhen really asked for it in vain.
As long as you follow Young Master Zhen's path, you won't have to worry about not having the chance to make a fortune in the future.
However, Lin Ming was very good at figuring out his intentions. Hearing from Jiang Chen's tone, he really didn't mean to take it for free, and knew that if he had to give it away by force, others would be unhappy.
Didn't you hear what Young Master Zhen said? He is not short of this little money.
However, Lin Ming also knew that he could charge money, but the scale must be grasped. He immediately said: "The villain will charge the cost price. Young Master, you can just give me 300 million Holy Spirit Stones."
This is indeed the cost price, which is only tens of millions less than the real cost price. Lin Ming can still afford this loss.
Jiang Chen nodded and directly threw a storage ring over: "This is 400 million, I know you will definitely report a little less. If it is more or less, it will be yours. I won't be so polite to you. "
Lin Ming subconsciously caught the storage ring and was speechless, unable to speak, but warm current surged in his heart.
The young master is the young master, but this handwriting is different.
If you continue to bargain and push back and forth at this time, you will end up at the bottom of the pile. Obviously, Young Master Zhen doesn't care about this little money.
At that moment, Lin Ming hurriedly said: "Young Master is so powerful, the villain has really made a profit this time. These slaves' slave cards, and their control jade slips..."
Lin Ming presented some necessary things one by one.
Jiang Chen waved his hand and told Magatama and Ling Huier to take it away.
"Okay, I have something else to do, so I won't stay here." Jiang Chen looked at these slaves, "Boss Lin, send someone to take me to the Peacock Sacred Mountain."
"Yes." Lin Ming nodded hurriedly and said, "It's rare for the young master to come here. I want to hold a banquet to entertain you. The young master..."
"Next time." Jiang Chen didn't have the intention to linger now. Seeing that Lin Ming was a little disappointed, he also smiled lightly, "Next time, call Wei Jie and walk around."
When Lin Ming heard this, he was immediately overjoyed. He secretly cursed himself for being confused. With his identity, are you hosting a banquet for Young Master Zhen? Why should they give you face?
The hint behind Master Zhen’s last sentence is very clear. If you want to get closer to Master Zhen, you must first get closer to Wei Jie, and then go through Wei Jie.
Lin Ming nodded without hesitation and respectfully sent Jiang Chen and his party out the door, not daring to mention the banquet again.
