After the dinner, everyone went back to their tents to rest. Yan Yun also returned to the Chewa Valley camp first. He was refining a battle formation weapon to help defend the camp. He came over to take a look at Zhao Ran. He had taken some time out of his busy schedule.
Zhao Ran quickly sent him out of the camp.
Accompanied by Pei Zhongze and Ning Shouyu, Zhao Ran came to the big tent allocated for him to live in. When he opened the curtain and entered, he saw a person sitting on the felt carpet in the tent. It was Dongfang Li.
Pei Zhongze and Ning Shouyu retreated, and Zhao Ran asked: "Since Senior Brother Li has arrived, why didn't you go to the banquet just now?"
Dongfang Li pointed to Ma Zha opposite the table and said: "Congratulations to junior brother for a smooth trip. Come and sit down."
Zhao Ran sat down opposite him and listened to Dongfang Li said: "Those lively occasions where publicity is not suitable for me, I don't like to go. Besides, given my identity, it is better for as few people to know my whereabouts."
Zhao Ran said: "Brother, why did you come here? I had planned to go up to Qingcheng Mountain when I had free time after I came back."
Dongfang Li said: "It doesn't matter. There is nothing wrong with you. Come and pick up my junior brother. You are carrying a precious treasure, so I am very uneasy."
Zhao Ran understood Dongfang Li's thoughts, so he first took out the return gift list that Xi Xia Ming had presented to him, and handed it to Dongfang Li for review: "Senior brother, please take a look."
Recorded on this list are two high-level magic weapons, two mid-level magic weapons, three boxes of spiritual grass, three hundred war horses, two hundred thousand taels of silver, one hundred catties of gold sand, five hundred knives of Tianshan Talisman Paper, and purple golden nanmu.
Two hundred square meters, two thousand pieces of cowhide, one hundred and sixty top-grade eight-leaf snow lotuses, etc.
The rest of the really good things are not named on it, and the reason is very simple. "The Wuji Picture", "The Picture of the Ten Sons of Xuanyuan", Qingyu Baoyi, Lingfei Liujia Suzuo Danding, "The Biography of the Immortal Master Lou Guan" and
The other three high-level magical artifacts and the four mid-level magical artifacts were all obtained by Zhao Ran in exchange for silver, mandala, golden bowl and other items, and were not included in Master Xuanci's rainbow body exchange.
Of course, you can say that Zhao Ran deceived others, but in any case it was impossible for him to hand it over to Baojing Pavilion, not to mention that the two true masters sitting in Baojing Pavilion could not deal with him.
Dongfang Li took the gift list and read it, and said: "Before coming, Elder Zhuo flew a talisman to inform me that the Zhenshi Hall has already discussed it. Wu Tianshi and Xu Zhenren argued for you, and the Zhenshi Hall agreed, half of which
I'll give it to you Lou Guan, and the remaining half will be sent to the General Guan. I came here to discuss with you what to hand over and what to keep for yourself."
"Did you read this gift list during the meeting at Zhenshitang?"
"When you sent it to me that day, I had already reported it to the True Master Hall. All the True Masters had seen it, but there were no these three hundred horses during the discussion at that time."
"Which ones need to be handed over and which ones can be kept for ourselves? Doesn't the True Master Hall have any direction?"
"Baojing Pavilion Chen and Guo, the two true masters, originally wanted you to hand over all four magical artifacts. After discussion, they agreed that you can keep one high-level and one mid-level for yourself. They are not too concerned about the rest.
Just pay attention and make your own choice.”
Zhao Ran thought for a while and asked: "Who was the envoy who returned the relics of Monk Lu Xi, the Tubo master? How did Zhenshitang share the benefits with him?"
Dongfang Li said: "The person who returned Monk Lu Xi's relics at that time was Elder He from Kuixing Hall in the capital. He had distinguished honors in setting up an ambush. Therefore, Tianshi Zhang made the decision and let him go to Tibet. However, Elder He returned it.
It's just a relic, not comparable to your rainbow body. Tubo gave him a high-level magic weapon, and a bunch of miscellaneous objects, but the only thing I remember is that it was 20,000 silver, and I can't remember the rest clearly.
.In short, it is far less than what you got this time. Therefore, it was all given to Elder He."
Zhao Ran nodded and stopped bargaining too much. He had already obtained the main treasures. He just hoped that Zhenshitang would turn a blind eye to his little tricks in private. Thank God. If he had to bargain any more, it would be a bit blind.
In fact, even if all of the items on the gift list were handed over to the True Master Hall, Zhao Ran had nothing to regret. Being able to keep half of them was considered a good compensation, so he immediately picked up his pen to discuss with Dongfang Li.
The two high-level magic weapons and the two mid-level magic weapons that Zhao Ran listed on the list were all of relatively average quality. The good ones he had already kept in his home.
, so there was nothing to choose from, so I picked one piece of each at will.
The three large boxes of spiritual herbs given by Tianlongyuan were all ranked after one hundred in the "Principal of Spiritual Medicine Zhilan". They were of little value to Zhao Ran who owned Baishanjun, so they were all handed over to the general survey.
What Zhao Ran really wanted was silver, horses and golden nanmu. He and Dongfang Li estimated the value of the gift list and found that if all three were withheld, it would be much more than half. After weighing the left and right, Zhao Ran stayed
One hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver, two hundred horses, and all the golden nanmu.
The remaining fifty thousand taels of silver, one hundred horses, gold sand, Tianshan talisman paper, cowhide, top-grade snow lotus and other goods, plus three boxes of spiritual herbs, were all handed over to Zong Guan.
But even so, there was still a lot left. Zhao Ran simply gritted his teeth, took out the remaining nine gift boxes of Zhuhuo Lingguo from the ring, added them up, and barely managed to make up the total value of 200,000 silver.
When Dongfang Li saw these Zhu Huo Ling Fruits, he couldn't help but think about it, and discussed with Zhao Ran privately: "Junior Brother, these Zhu Huo Ling Fruits of yours are of excellent quality, I'm afraid it would be a pity to hand them over to the General View."
"What does senior brother mean?"
"Anyway, these Zhuhuo Lingguo are not on the gift list. Why don't we, Yuhuang Pavilion and Sanqing Pavilion, collect 50,000 taels of silver and make up for the difference of 200,000 taels for you. You can change the 50,000 taels of silver on the gift list to ten
Ten thousand taels. I, Yuhuang Pavilion and Sanqing Pavilion, have redeemed these nine baskets."
"Is it expensive?" Zhao Ran was a little annoyed. Each basket only contained about ten Zhuhuo Lingguo, which added up to only one hundred Zhuhuo Lingguo. However, the Oriental Gift cost 50,000 taels, which was almost 500 per piece.
About 2, it is indeed too expensive.
Dongfang Li said: "It doesn't matter. It's a bit expensive, but it's difficult to find so many Zhuhuo Spirit Fruits at one time. With such a batch of Spirit Fruits at the bottom, I feel confident enough when I send people to do things."
Seeing that Dongfang Li attached so much importance to this batch of Zhuhuo Lingguo, Zhao Ran did not dare to say more for fear of being scolded for speaking too much. If he accidentally told Dongfang Li that he was eating the Zhuhuo Lingguo as grapes, would he be beaten up?
What about Dun?
Without further ado, Dongfang Li had to send the things back to Zongguan overnight, and for this purpose he even brought a large storage magic weapon from Sanqing Pavilion.
Zhao Ran immediately took him to the warehouse where supplies were stored and put the items on the gift list inside.
Looking at the storage bag that Dongfang Li took out, Zhao Ran was very interested and asked: "Brother, how much can this storage bag hold?"
Dongfang Li said: "Everything on your gift list can be put in without any problem. Of course, the horse can't fit it in."
"Can these two hundred square meters of golden nanmu be installed?"
"Can pretend!"
Zhao Ran was immediately greedy: "Senior brother, how much is this kit? Can you sell it to me?"
