As soon as Ye Qiu said this, everyone present was shocked.
Only then did Master Changmei understand that Ye Qiu came to the banquet for the spirit stone, thinking that the little bastard had such a dark heart.
Butler Li cursed secretly in his heart, you want so many spiritual stones and you are not afraid of choking to death?
Jiang Shan stared at Ye Qiu, feeling bitter in his heart. I said I wanted you to be bigger, but I didn't let you be this big!
"What, is it difficult?"
Ye Qiu looked at Jiang Shan and said: "Brother, as the lord of a city, it shouldn't be difficult for you to have such a few spiritual stones!"
So much?
Can you speak louder?
What you want is one million!
Jiang Shan took a deep breath and said: "I don't know something. Although Sifang City is rich, it has to pay millions of spiritual stones to the Yin and Yang Sect every year. As a result, I don't have any spiritual stones in my hands."
"Brother, I really can't afford one million."
"Can it be less?"
After Jiang Shan finished speaking, he picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
Ye Qiu said: "Then eight hundred thousand!"
puff--
The wine in Jiang Shan's mouth spurted out again, and he said anxiously: "Brother, use less."
Ye Qiu said: "Six hundred thousand!"
Jiang Shan said with a bitter face: "If I don't hide it from my brother, I can't come up with 600,000 yuan."
Ye Qiu said: "There's always four hundred thousand, right?"
Jiang Shan looked embarrassed: "Not even 400,000..."
"Two hundred thousand!" Ye Qiu said: "If I don't have two hundred thousand, then I won't want it, so as not to embarrass my brother, I will ask other city lords later..."
"Yes!" Jiang Shan slapped the table and said, "Brother, you don't need to talk to other city lords. I'll give you two hundred thousand."
"City Lord!" Butler Li reminded from the side: "There are only 150,000 spiritual stones in the treasure house, not enough for 200,000."
Jiang Shan smiled and said, "You can help me get the missing fifty thousand spiritual stones."
"City Lord, I also want to help raise some money, but the amount is huge and I am really powerless..." Before Butler Li could finish his words, he was interrupted by Jiang Shan.
"Li Qian, you have compiled all the accounts of Sifang City over the years. Although I have never checked the accounts, it does not mean that I don't know some things."
Jiang Shan had a sullen face and stared at Butler Li sharply as he spoke, full of strong pressure.
thump!
Butler Li was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy: "I was confused. Please spare my life, City Lord."
"Get up!" Jiang Shan said with a smile: "Brother Bai needs spiritual stones now. As a brother, I naturally have to help him."
"Steward Li, take out all the 150,000 spirit stones from the treasure house. You can help me get the other 50,000 first. I'll treat it as if I personally borrowed it from you. When the city lord's palace has the spirit stones, I will return them."
you."
"do you think it's OK?"
Butler Li hurriedly said: "The city lord made a serious statement. Since Mr. Bai needs spiritual stones, it is my duty to do so."
"Mr. Bai, please wait a moment."
"I'm going to get the spirit stone right away."
Butler Li left in a hurry.
"Brother Bai, come on, let's continue drinking." Jiang Shan clinked glasses with Ye Qiu.
About ten minutes passed.
Butler Li came back with nothing in his hand, which made Ye Qiu a little confused, where is the spirit stone?
Butler Li took out a bronze ring from his pocket, handed it to Ye Qiu, and said, "Mr. Bai, all 200,000 spiritual stones are contained in this space ring. Please keep it."
Ye Qiu took the ring and asked, "Steward Li, how do you use this ring?"
Jiang Shan was surprised: "Brother Bai, don't you know how to use the space ring?"
Ye Qiu said: "I said I'm not afraid of my brother's jokes. I'm just a casual cultivator with a low cultivation level. I have never used this kind of thing before."
Jiang Shan said: "Brother, just hold the ring and use your mental power to feel it. When you need to take out the things inside, just think about it."
Ye Qiu did as Jiang Shan said. Sure enough, he soon felt that the ring was filled with spiritual stones. With a thought, a pile of spiritual stones floated up.
Only then did he understand that the so-called space ring was actually a space magic weapon.
Although it is far behind the Qiankun Bag, the space of this ring is not small and can hold a mountain.
Ye Qiu stood up, cupped his fists and bowed to Jiang Shan, saying, "Brother, thank you."
"Brother, there is no need to be polite to me." Jiang Shan said: "This space can be recognized as its owner with just a drop of blood. You can carry it with you in the future, maybe it will be useful."
"Thank you, brother." Ye Qiu thanked him again.
"Didn't I just say that you are welcome to follow me? Come and drink with me." Jiang Shan was very forthright.
Ye Qiu was secretly happy. Not only did he get 200,000 spirit stones, he also got a space ring, which was a huge gain.
Until late at night.
This banquet has just ended.
Jiang Shan got very drunk and repeatedly asked Ye Qiu to stay overnight at the city lord's mansion, but Ye Qiu refused.
First of all, this place is under the jurisdiction of the Yin Yang Sect, and there are many masters in the city lord's mansion, so it is very dangerous to stay here.
Secondly, he was worried about the safety of Baihua Fairy and Pothos.
Seeing that Ye Qiu insisted on leaving, Jiang Shan asked Butler Li to support him and take Ye Qiu and Changmei Master all the way out the door.
"Brother Bai, if you become a disciple of Granny Yinhua, please don't forget me."
Jiang Shan whispered in Ye Qiu's ear: "You don't know yet, Granny Yinhua and Teacher Liu Chang are from the same school, and they have a very good relationship."
Hearing this, Ye Qiu suddenly realized.
"No wonder Jiang Shan is so generous to me. It turns out Granny Yinhua has quite a background!"
Ye Qiu said: "I will remember my kindness today, and if I have the opportunity in the future, I will definitely repay my kindness."
"Brother is a loyal person, I believe you." Jiang Shan said with drunken eyes: "It's getting late, brother, I won't see you off, go back and rest quickly!"
"Farewell!" After Ye Qiu said this, he left with Changmei Zhenren.
After the two figures disappeared, Jiang Shan stood up straight, with his hands behind his back, and his eyes were extremely deep.
"City Lord, are you not drunk?" Butler Li asked in surprise.
Jiang Shan said: "It's just a few jars of wine, it won't make me drunk."
Butler Li then said: "City Lord, when we first met, you gave him two hundred thousand spirit stones. Isn't it too generous?"
"It's just two hundred thousand spiritual stones, don't worry about it." Jiang Shan said: "When he becomes the disciple of Grandma Yinhua, he will definitely reach the sky in a while, and he will not treat us badly."
Butler Li said: "City Lord, what if he doesn't worship Granny Yinhua as his teacher?"
"No." Jiang Shan smiled and said, "I deliberately told him about Granny Yinhua's background just now, just to let him understand that by becoming a disciple of Granny Yinhua, he will have a strong backer."
"Brother Bai is a smart man, he will not miss this opportunity."
"The city lord is wise!" Butler Li flattered him.
Jiang Shan smiled and said, "Li Qian, I told you before that you should take a long-term view in life."
"Today I invited him to drink and gave him spiritual stones and space rings. These are all my investments in him. I believe that he will repay me a hundredfold in the future."
"Learn a little!"
Jiang Shan patted Butler Li on the shoulder, turned around and went into the city lord's mansion to rest.
Butler Li stood there and thought over and over what Jiang Shan had just said. After a while, Butler Li gritted his teeth and made a very important decision.
