There are two more marks on the black card - usually three, but sometimes four.
Each mark represents a discount on the transaction gold. For example, when there are three marks, you can get a 30% discount by using the first mark, then a 20% discount, and the last mark is a 10% discount.
The first time Jin Zifu came with the black card, the black card had the last mark left. And that black card had actually become invalid. Later, the one Luo Qiu gave to Cao Ziqian was the one he re-injected.
imprinted.
As for the black card containing the fourth mark - feel the feeling of the originally generous transaction fee suddenly being discounted by 40%!
How interesting... This black card seems to be the one I encountered in Gu Yuezhai today, Luo Qiu thought slightly.
But it doesn't matter who holds the black card. The key is that the cardholder has arrived.
At this time, Zhong Luochen had already sat down, and Luo Qiu had also sat opposite him. You Ye had already served carefully prepared scented tea. Unfortunately, no matter who came in, they seemed to be in no mood to taste it.
It will eventually cool and dry out.
"Does Mr. Zhong know the rules here?" Luo Qiu suddenly asked - if he got this black card from Gu Yuezhai, then it's hard to guess what level of knowledge he has about the club.
.
There will also be times when it is necessary to explain the club’s trading rules to guests.
"Mr. Clown, please tell me!" Zhong Luochen calmed down and looked at Luo Qiu calmly - in his opinion, facing this mysterious unknown, it is best to put away his superiority as an ordinary person and maintain
With the utmost courtesy and humility.
Luo Qiu said: "The cardholder is a member of the club. There are still two marks left on the black card in your hand, so you can enjoy the transaction discount twice."
Zhong Luochen nodded, thinking that no wonder Mrs. Zhang hesitated when she took out the jade lock. Sure enough, it was because the origin of this black card was unusual.
"That……"
"You can enjoy 20% off now. After completing this time, it will be 10% off." Luo Qiu said calmly: "It was originally 30% off... but it has been used once."
Zhong Luochen nodded again: "Mr. Clown, I understand...but I want to confirm, is it really possible to buy everything here?"
Luo Qiu said: "Of course... it's impossible. If what you want to buy is something like the destruction of the world, do you think we have the ability to sell it to you? After all, if the world does not exist, our club is
It’s going to go bankrupt.”
Zhong Luochen nodded in agreement.
Unexpectedly, Luo Qiu suddenly said quietly: "Besides, you can't afford the transaction fee to destroy the world...even if you have the discount."
Zhong Luochen's heart couldn't help but skip a beat... Is this a joke or something else?
Luo Qiu said again: "I'm going too far, let's talk about what you want as a guest."
He is like a magic stick, "Wealth? Fame? Women? Or power? As long as you want it and can afford the price."
"I want to buy my life!" Zhong Luochen took a deep breath and said seriously.
After saying that, he watched Luo Qiu's every move nervously but calmly. Although the other person was wearing a clown mask, he could still tell something through his body language.
But he couldn't see anything.
The clown in front of him seemed motionless, just staring at him quietly until Zhong Luochen broke out in a cold sweat, and finally heard the other person say: "Of course, no problem. I don't know who Mr. Zhong wants.
Life? What are you going to use to buy this life? By the way, I forgot to tell you, we don’t charge money here.”
"My grandpa." Zhong Luochen said solemnly: "He has a brain tumor and is now in a coma. We have invited the best doctors at home and abroad to treat him, but there is no way to treat him. I just hope that he can survive this difficulty.
"
After hearing this, Luo Qiu said: "Guest, I don't care about your grandfather's illness. What I care about is that you want to buy your grandfather's life... for how long? One year? Five years? Or ten years?
"
Zhong Luochen looked at Luo Qiu and said, "How long can I buy it for at most?"
Luo Qiu said: "This is up to you to decide. You have to think how much your grandfather's life is worth every minute, and then how much you can bear."
"Ten years... no..." Zhong Luochen hesitated for a moment and then said: "Five years, as long as five years is enough! As for the price... I don't know how to measure it, I hope you can tell me. But I know, here
Although it is an unknown transaction, it is also about voluntariness, so I believe you will not mislead."
But it will guide...
Luo Qiu was silent for a while. His silence made Zhong Luochen look even more uneasy. The young man seemed to be trying his best to hide his uneasiness, so he finally picked up the scented tea that Youye had brewed and drank it gently.
"Do you want to use your three-hour lifespan to purchase Grandpa Zhong Luochen's information?"
"Do you want to use the three-hour lifespan to purchase Zhong Luochen's information?"
"……Um."
But Jing Jing was just thinking on the surface. Behind the scenes, Luo Qiu was communicating with the altar on the negative third floor with his mind. After successfully completing the transaction for the first time, just as You Ye said, Luo Qiu's ability would slowly change.
Gotta get stronger.
For example, now, you can directly communicate with the altar with your thoughts, and exchange your lifespan for the information you want.
The existence of the altar allows Luo Qiu to continuously extend his lifespan, but it also seems to continuously exploit his lifespan at the same time.
Because he still had a white jade plaque worth seventy days in hand, Luo Qiu simply chose to purchase the information...just treat it as an early investment.
But my life was short-lived for six hours, and I always feel a little heartbroken...
…
It wasn't until Zhong Luochen had drank half of the scented tea that Luo Qiu spoke slowly: "Sir, you should know that your grandfather's life is related to the fate of many people... whether it is you as relatives or others as enemies.
.If my grandfather survives in spirit for one more day, countless people will be able to have food and clothing, and countless wives and children will be separated from each other...and all this requires only one decision from him."
Zhong Luochen took it seriously and said: "Because of this, we cannot let him die like this!"
At this moment, Luo Qiu suddenly stretched out his hand and swept across the table. Several patterned playing cards appeared out of thin air on the blank table. "Guest, since you have given me the right to estimate, I will give you an estimate. Please see."
."
Luo Qiu opened the first chapter card on the left, with the number '30' written on it. Luo Qiu explained: "You can use your thirty years of life to buy your grandfather's five years of life."
Zhong Luochen was stunned for a moment, and then said angrily: "Thirty years can only be exchanged for five years? What kind of deal is this?"
Luo Qiu said calmly: "Mr. Zhong, as far as I know, there are three people in your generation, including you. The three of you are equally capable and no one has an advantage. Therefore, the three of you can inherit a huge family."
The chances are the same, one-third for each person. In addition, your grandfather worked hard to build the Zhong family, but even if you have outstanding abilities and even inherit your family, it will only take you ten years to succeed.
To be able to achieve the influence your grandfather has now, you must have thought about this yourself, right? Of course, ten years is already the optimal calculation. So... ten years, three times more, it will be thirty years."
Zhong Luochen was silent for a moment, "What is the second card?"
Luo Qiu opened the second chapter of the playing card, with the word "wisdom" written on it.
This is easy to understand, that is, using one's life's wisdom in exchange for five years for his grandfather - in this way, his life span will not be shortened, and he will still be the young master of the Zhong family, but he may become inactive.
In fact, it means exchanging one's own life - obviously, this is something Zhong Luochen cannot accept.
"What's the third picture?" Zhong Luochen swallowed subconsciously.
Luo Qiu gently opened the third card, with 'happiness' written on it.
"What does this mean?" Zhong Luochen frowned in confusion.
Luo Qiu said calmly: "It's very simple. No matter what you get in the future, you will not be able to feel any happiness. You will not be able to feel the preciousness of love, you will forget the rareness of family affection, and you will lose the joy of obtaining offspring, and even the satisfaction
Feelings will leave you... no matter what you do or how you do it."
Seeing Zhong Luochen's silent expression, Luo Qiu reached out and prepared to open the cards of Chapter 4.
Unexpectedly, Zhong Luochen suddenly stopped and said: "No, just use my happiness as trading gold!"
Luo Qiu was slightly surprised and said: "Mr. Zhong, you should understand that seeing it to the end is one of your rights."
Zhong Luochen sneered and said: "I'm afraid it will only get worse when you see the back. This is indeed a place where you make a deal with the devil. I can't exchange it with my own life, and I won't give up my wisdom!"
"Is this why you choose happiness?"
Zhong Luochen raised his head and said confidently: "Yes! But don't forget, I have a black card in my hand, so in exchange for happiness, I can also enjoy the discount... In other words, at least one or two things can bring me
You can’t take away the things that come to you for satisfaction!”
Luo Qiu knocked on the table in disbelief, "Then what do you plan to keep? Although it is only a 20% discount, in fact, you can only keep one thing at most. Although there are many things that can bring happiness, they can be summarized into a few things.
Love, family, interests, achievements, and peace of mind.”
"Keep your achievements for me." Zhong Luochen said directly.
"Are you sure? Maybe a better choice will be at the end." Luo Qiu said calmly.
Zhong Luochen shook his head and said, "I believe in my feelings. It's useless to say more."
Luo Qiu had no choice but to nod, and then stretched out his hand. In front of Zhong Luochen, an ancient parchment scroll began to slowly open, "If the guest has made up his mind, put your palm on it. In this way,
The sale and purchase contract will then officially come into effect."
Zhong Luochen pressed his palm directly. His heart suddenly contracted at this moment, almost feeling like suffocation and death. Zhong Luochen gasped for air and looked in horror.
Luo Qiu said calmly: "Don't worry, as long as the transaction is completed, you, the customer, will be safe. And we give the goods first, and then collect the transaction fee... This contract is actually just a small guarantee, because we don't want to see it.
Customers who have obtained the goods are unwilling to pay the transaction fee.”
Zhong Luochen took a deep breath: "Okay! So, has my grandfather recovered now?"
Luo Qiu shook his head and said: "Don't worry yet. The first step is to bring your grandfather to this place... Well, you don't have to come to me directly, just find a place to settle down... After the first step
After that, you should know how to find me."
The black card appeared in Zhong Luochen's pocket again, and he nodded, quickly pushed open the club's door, and walked out into the bustling street outside.
Looking at Zhong Luochen leaving, Luo Qiu shook his head. In fact, he could go there on his own initiative, but it was not the ability to shuttle, but the need to take transportation.
His ability is not powerful enough to allow him to cross several provinces - in fact, he can only move around the city at most.
As for the other reason, it actually doesn't matter.
Just because I'm lazy...
…
"Congratulations to the master, we have negotiated a deal."
You Ye said without hesitation of praise beside Luo Qiu.
Luo Qiu took off the clown mask on his face, fanned the air and said: "The transaction has not been completed yet, so there is no need to be happy yet. And because of the 20% discount, I always feel that I have lost a lot."
But it is one of the rules after all. Even if he feels that he is at a loss, Luo Qiu can't do anything about it - but although Zhong Luochen's achievements and happiness are retained, if the rest are sacrificed, their value will still greatly exceed Luo Qiu's
estimate.
Of course, after the transaction is completed.
"Master, what is the fourth card?" Youye asked curiously.
Luo Qiu shook his head, said nothing, picked up his cane and walked upstairs.
Youye tilted his head, but reached out and turned over the fourth card that Luo Qiu had not taken away.
What is written is: Do good deeds for twenty years.
She knew that the transaction fee for the fourth card was not ready-made, but required Zhong Luochen to maintain a standard of good deeds in the next twenty years and not do any bad things until the deadline was over and the transaction was completed.
will be completed.
In the parlance of this Eastern country, it is: doing good deeds and accumulating virtue.
Use the merit accumulated from doing good deeds for twenty years as the final transaction fee.
"Master, something is a little bad."
The beautiful maid smiled slightly and put the cards away.
