Chapter 130 Title Eloped
"You're quite clever," Chen Pi said, his face showing no emotion. "No wonder those two guys from the Wu family always get humiliated by you."
"The fourth grandfather really thinks too highly of me. The two masters of the Wu family actually have many ways to kill me, but they are afraid that I will go crazy and take all of them away!" Jiang Shen poured himself a cup of tea. As for Chenpi, it's not like he doesn't have hands, right?
Favorite Qingleng Senior Sister: [What the host said is true. In terms of skills, among the Nine Sects, only the older generation is probably a little more powerful than those two old foxes of the Wu family, but the older generation is basically dead!]
Jiulou: [Now I guess only Zhang Qishan is left. Although Zhang Qishan hasn't made many moves, so it's hard to tell what he's doing, he's been with Zhang Qishan for so many years, so his skills should be pretty good. As for the old lady from the Huo family, let's just forget about her! I can't say she doesn't have any skills, I can only say she's getting more confused as she gets older.]
"If Fourth Grandpa wants to hire me, he'll be making things difficult for Wu Sansheng. As for your enemy, that foreigner named Qiu Dekao, I don't think I need to do anything. Judging by the time, he's over a hundred years old now, and he's old enough to be covered in dirt. Why would I need to do anything? He'll be dead in two years!" Jiang Shen counted on his fingers. That guy must have been in his twenties or thirties at the beginning of the 20th century, right? He must be over a hundred now, right? Why would he even need to do anything?
"What he should be seeking now is peace after death. As a Taoist priest, you should have many ways to make someone restless after death, right?" Chen Pi looked at Jiang Shen.
Jiang Shen: ...
Ye Yu: [Okay, Chen Pi has successfully touched upon the host's blind spot!]
A lifeless Cantonese rabbit: [The anchor has been completely speechless!]
"Fourth Grandpa, I admit that I am a Taoist priest who moves mountains, and I can be considered a Taoist priest, but I am not a turtle in the wishing well. If you don't want him to have peace after death, hire someone to travel across the ocean, dig out Qiu Dekao after he dies, and whip his corpse!" Jiang Shen was speechless.
"Whip the corpse? That's too easy for him. When I was alive, he was afraid of my revenge, so he never dared to enter China again. But now that I'm dead, he has the courage to do it." Chen Pi's old voice was filled with hatred. If it weren't for Qiu Dekao and that gang of Japanese pirates, his master's wife would not have died. He would get this account back sooner or later!
"But if a foreigner dies on Chinese soil, that's a diplomatic issue. I personally don't recommend it. If you really want to get revenge on that old man, find a way to fake someone's death. The person is already dead, so the body can't be sent back immediately, right? Arrange for someone to steal the body, and after the effect of the fake death drug wears off, you can do whatever you want with him!"
Jiang Shen offered his suggestion sincerely. After all, he was currently engaged in a criminal enterprise, tomb robbing, which was illegal and could be done covertly. As long as he didn't get caught, it would be fine. But if it involved killing foreigners, it would involve diplomatic issues. If the radish was pulled out, the mud would be exposed, and everyone would perish together. If that were the case, he would be nailed to the pillar of shame in the Quick Run game.
"I will give you the commission from Yunding Palace. I know Wu Sansheng will also give you a share, but the money I give you is not for you to protect me, but for you to help me collect my body!" Chen Pi said.
Jiang Shen looked at Chen Pi in shock. How did he know that he would die in the tomb?
Wen Jingyuan: [Could this tangerine peel have a new core? But it seems useless when worn on a body of this age.]
Liu Lin'er, who loves vinegar drinks: [That shouldn't be the case, right? Some elderly people have a premonition before they die. Maybe tangerine peel is one of those things?]
"Don't look at me in such shock. I've lived to this age and have lived enough," Chen Pi said calmly. He had long since become indifferent to life and death. He was destined to die in a grave in this life.
"Okay," Jiang Shen nodded. Isn't it just collecting a body? It's not a big deal. It's just a skinny old man. Just put a body bag in it and stuff it into the space.
"If there's nothing else, I'll leave. The boss is waiting for me to go back for dinner!" Jiang Shen said, and when he saw Chen Pi didn't say anything else, he stood up and left the study.
Chen Pi watched Jiang Shen leave and murmured, "That kid from the Xie family really got a great bargain!"
Jiang Shen: What did you pick up? I brought it to your door!
凸亠纠亠凸: [Host, the bronze door will be opened once in the Cloud Top Palace this time. Don’t you want to go in with me and see what the ultimate is?]
Jiang Shen: [No, curiosity killed the cat!]
Qi Yuan: [Cats have nine lives, but you, host, have 13, so you can't die.]
Yichen Ailian: [Upstairs, you're really mean! Streamer, I also think you should go in and take a look. After all, there's such a big hole there, and the author won't fill it, so I can only trouble you to clear it up for us!]
Live Room Administrator 000: [Don't worry, the anchor can't get in, and we can't see it either. The small world has rules, and you can't spy on the origin of the small world!]
Live broadcast room: ...too much!
Tiandao: Who is more excessive?
"Boss, I'm back." Jiang Shen returned to the Xie family just in time for dinner. "Why is this big black rat here?"
Black Blind Man: "No, can't I stay and have a quick meal?"
"Uncle Xie, add another set of bowls and chopsticks for Ajiang," Xie Yuchen said to the housekeeper, "Why didn't Fourth Grandpa leave any food for you?"
"No, the old man made a deal with me. He gave me some money and asked me to help him collect his body." Jiang Shen said, picked up the chopsticks and started to show off his rice.
"I'm still here! Aren't you afraid that I'll sell this information?" Hei Xiazi looked up at Jiang Shen.
"Sell it! As long as Fourth Grandpa is around, the Chen family won't be in chaos. If there is any chaos, it will be after Fourth Grandpa dies. But whether you can withstand Fourth Grandpa's revenge is another matter." Jiang Shen said indifferently, "If he is willing to give me a large enough amount, I think I am willing to get rid of you!"
Hei Xiazi stopped eating when he heard this and looked directly at Jiang Shen: "No, Jiang Jiang, how can you bear it? We are friends who have risked our lives together! Are you going to kill me, a blind man, just for money?"
Hei Xia Zi’s grievance was almost overflowing. Isn’t he so worthless?
Jiang Shen: "If they offer enough, it's not impossible. You can't afford 8 million anyway. If they offer enough money to let me kill you, I'd be really tempted! Not only would I not have to waste time, effort, and life looking for materials for you, I'd also get a lot of money. I could even retire early then!"
Black Blind Man: ...
As a businessman, Xie Yuchen keenly grasped the key point of Jiang Shen's words, "Eight hundred million?"
"Yeah," Jiang Shen nodded and swallowed the food in his mouth. "In addition to the family inheritance, his eyes are also affected by the vengeful spirit lady lying on his back. The vengeful spirit lady has been lying on his back for many years. To put it bluntly, part of his soul is entangled with the vengeful spirit lady. If we want to get rid of the vengeful spirit lady, we have to ensure that he doesn't become a fool. That's extremely difficult. And if he can't be cured, he can only last for another ten years at most.
The key is his eyes. Once the evil spirit leaves, there's a 90% chance he'll go blind. I have to make sure he doesn't go blind. Is asking him for 8 million not too much?
After listening to this, Xie Yuchen looked back and forth between Hei Xia Zi and Jiang Shen. Forget it, let these two guys coordinate their affairs themselves!
"No, Jiang Jiang, I can find the materials myself. Can you give me a cheaper price?" Hei Xiazi tried to bargain.
"Okay, if you can gather all the materials for me, I'll give you a friendly price of 2 million!" Jiang Shen nodded and said,
"Can it be cheaper? Or give me a zero?" Hei Xiazi tried to struggle. Two hundred and sixty million!
Jiang Shen: "How about I treat one less eye for you?"
Black Blind Man: I still don’t want to become a one-eyed dragon.
Su Yan: [Host, are you planning to have Hei Xia Zi pay Wu Xie for the sky lanterns?]
Jiang Shen: [That's about right! A wealthy sponsor has already provided most of the materials needed to treat Hei Xia Zi's eyes. We're still short of a few ingredients, and they can't be exchanged in the mall, so we'll have to look for them in this world! If I want to find them quickly, I'll have to use the Wang family, which would expose me. Hei Xia Zi has lived for so many years, so he should have some connections! And he already has so much debt, so he doesn't mind owing another one. After all, those who owe money are the boss these days!]
"What are the materials?" Hei Xia Zi asked. If all the materials were gathered together, the price could be reduced by 540 million. At worst, he could be shameless and bargain for it later, and maybe it could be reduced even further.
"The bead at the heart of the mermaid, two intact ones, no broken ones. The thousand-year-old lightning wood should be at least the size of a palm, the bigger the better. And the Qilin jelly, the older the better, and the more weight is best." Jiang Shen said, "Without the Qilin jelly, I'm afraid you can't hold on."
As Hei Xia Zi listened, he was frantically calculating his abacus in his mind, the beads of which were about to break. After listening to what Jiang Shen reported, Hei Xia Zi suddenly felt that 8 million was a fair price. Thousand-year-old lightning-struck wood could be found in those old Taoist temples as long as one was willing to spend time and money. As for the Qilinjie, the oldest piece had already gone into Wu Xie's stomach. As for the bead in the heart of the mermaid, he had never even heard of it.
