"You won't let me take action and buy the supplies that you have withheld." Li Fan's expression remained unchanged, he slowly drank a cup of tea and looked at Zhou Kebao. "Although I am relatively wealthy, my contribution is also limited.
It wasn't brought by the strong wind. Apart from building the fairy city, these supplies seem to have no other use."
Zhou Kebao shook his head quickly: "How can you be so ignorant?"
He looked at Li Fan cautiously, bent down to please him and said, "Actually, I came to see you fellow Taoist because peace is the most important thing..."
Li Fan suddenly put down the teacup, making a loud bang, which frightened Zhou Kebao so much that he stopped talking and straightened up.
Li Fan's face was stern, and murderous intent flashed in his eyes: "Peace is the most important thing. It seems that this was not your plan before."
"Withholding so many supplies is only under the premise that I have issued a military order. It is to force me, Li Fan, to die."
Zhou Kebao waved his hands repeatedly and explained tremblingly: "This is absolutely not the intention! This is absolutely not the intention! From beginning to end, at most we are just asking for money..."
Li Fan was noncommittal and said calmly: "The matter is now over, and I won't argue with you anymore..."
When Zhou Kebao heard this, his face was full of disbelief.
However, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard Li Fan say again: "However, after Congyun Immortal City is officially completed, there must be no less reports to the superiors."
"After all, being able to complete the construction of the fairy city without wasting any materials, doesn't it mean that I, Li Fan, am very capable?"
"It's just to tell the world so that everyone knows about it. If all the city lords in the world are like me, then won't it be just around the corner that the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance annexes the Five Elders Association?"
"What do you think, Fellow Daoist Zhou?" Li Fan said boldly.
"Haha, fellow Taoist, you are joking." Zhou Kebao wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and already understood the threat in Li Fan's words.
"If you have any requests, fellow Taoists, just ask them. We will definitely meet them and don't make the matter a big deal."
Zhou Kebao patted his chest and assured.
"Don't look at what I want, look at what you have." Li Fan stepped forward and patted Zhou Kebao on the shoulder.
"Contribution? Do I lack this thing?"
Li Fan showed a proud look on his face: "I, Li Fan, am famous all over the world for my deduction skills. I can only make money with money. It's easy. The so-called contribution, in my eyes, is nothing more than a series of numbers."
When Zhou Kebao heard this, his body trembled slightly.
"Furthermore, when Congyun Immortal City is completed, the corresponding rewards will definitely be huge. By then, as a senior member of the party, my corresponding authority level will also soar."
"It has contribution and authority. How many things in this world are there that I can't get my hands on?"
"What should you do to impress me?"
Li Fan stared at Zhou Kebao with burning eyes.
Zhou Kebao was pressed hard by Li Fan's gaze, and felt that what the other person said was very reasonable. His mind was instantly confused, and he couldn't think of a suitable answer for a while.
"After you think about it, come see me again. I'm still busy with business, so I won't accompany you!" Li Fan said coldly and issued an order to expel the guest.
Zhou Kebao retreated with a sad look on his face.
Li Fan's meaning is very clear.
The fact that they caused trouble can be forgotten.
But compensation of sufficient value needs to be provided.
"Requests without requirements are the most difficult to handle." Zhou Kebao sighed slightly.
He looked back at the room where Li Fan was.
Since he left in such a short period of time, there have been seven or eight different monks with serious faces, coming in and out frequently.
"The momentum has been established, so we cannot force it to become our enemy."
"In that case, why not take this opportunity to turn an enemy into a friend. From my perspective, this person is not the kind of person who will retaliate for evil. As long as you have enough chips, you don't have to worry about being unable to defeat him."
Zhou Kebao's thoughts changed rapidly and he had made up his mind in an instant.
So he hurried back and discussed with his friends.
Five days later, Zhou Kebao appeared in front of Li Fan again, full of confidence.
"Fellow Taoist, please take a look at this thing."
He pointed in the air and saw a miniature scene of a suspended city appearing in the sky.
"What does this mean?" Li Fan looked at it for a moment, but couldn't see the meaning behind it.
He kept calm and asked aloud.
Seeing Li Fan like this, Zhou Kebao felt more confident and showed a mysterious smile.
"It's the same as the Hanging Immortal City of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, and even better than the Cave Mansion..."
"I wonder if Yougan is interested?"
Zhou Kebao asked slowly and in a low voice.
"Huh?" Li Fan's eyes narrowed, then he turned to look carefully at the miniature landscape in the sky.
The thoughts in my mind were racing, and I couldn't help but take a breath.
"The supplies you withheld were twice as much as what you gave me? Are you a little too courageous?"
Zhou Kebao said quickly: "Haha, fellow Taoist misunderstanding."
"Although this time, in order to plot against fellow Taoists, we did make a lot of reductions. But if we want to build a complete hanging city, it is far from enough."
"In fact, these materials are all the leftovers accumulated from our past repair and renovation projects in fairy cities in various states."
"Friend Li Dao, you also know that when allocating materials for the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance project, various unexpected situations must be taken into account, and the budget is relatively sufficient. And we often do this business, practice makes perfect. The actual loss is very small."
"So the supplies can be saved every time. Naturally, it is impossible to hand over the extra part, so it falls into our pockets."
…
Zhou Kebao smiled slightly and suddenly stopped talking, saying nothing.
"Over the years, we have accumulated these materials. Instead of keeping them in the warehouse and gathering dust, it is better to make the best use of them and resolve this misunderstanding with you, fellow Taoist."
"Public weapons are for private use, and the Immortal City is used as a cave. Haha, I can guarantee that even in our Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, this kind of thing is not common."
Li Fan stared straight at the image of the fairy city that was constantly rotating, and his heart was obviously moved.
Seeing this, Zhou Kebao started selling hard again.
"Except for the fact that this fairy city cave cannot be connected to the headquarters of the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, we can make all the facilities in it the same as those of ordinary fairy cities."
"Of course, if fellow Taoists think it is too high-profile, we will also provide hidden functions. Buildings such as the Bu Zheng Hall and the Martial Arts Hall can not show their appearance at ordinary times. They can only be called out again when needed."
"In the Fairy City Cave Mansion, we will also leave enough room for later transformation."
"In the future, if fellow Taoists want to strengthen the protective magic circle and impose restrictions, there is no need to worry about it."
"Of course, if fellow Taoists can make some contribution, it's not impossible for us to do it for you."
"If fellow Taoists are generous enough, we can move the magic array over long distances or even create a virtual mustard seed miniature array. These can also be discussed."
"A fairy city cave that can be carried around, has its own teleportation function, and can be attacked and defended..."
