Chapter 57 Returning with a reward
Li Kui's death was very miserable, especially since his arm seemed to have been cut alive, his bones, tendons, and flesh were broken. He lay on the ground with his head tilted, his eyes wide open and he had not closed it.
The strength Wei Changfeng showed secretly surprised Tieyi and felt a little awe in his heart when he was able to make a treasure hunter of the seventh level of body refining.
"Give me your life, let me go!"
Hao Ren was so timid that he was not as arrogant as before.
He threw himself at Wei Changfeng's feet, and cried with tears and snatched the ground with his head, begging, "Junior Brother Wei, Young Master Wei, please let me go, I will be a dog and a horse for you!"
Wei Changfeng took out a Qi-enriching pill and swallowed it into his stomach. After the pill power was melted, he barely recovered a little vitality.
He looked at Hao Ren who was ugly with contempt and said lightly: "Kill..."
"don't want!"
Hao Ren was so scared that he scattered and howled loudly: "I..."
Click!
Before Hao Ren could finish his words, Tieyi raised his sword and chopped off his head!
Things have reached this point, how could Wei Changfeng still keep Hao Ren's life? He will eliminate the roots without any consequences. Anyway, there are not a few disciples of the Martial Arts Academy who die in Qingmang Mountain every year.
Tieyi's decisiveness also made Wei Changfeng look up at him, and he felt that the retainer he recruited was really good!
"Old Tie, please deal with these corpses. I want to adjust my breathing and recover."
Tieyi smiled and spitted, saying, "Look at me, make sure it's clean and unmarked!"
His method of handling the funeral was not complicated. He first robbed money and other useful items, then found a place to dig a large hole, and finally buried the body.
In the dense forest, it won’t take long to see the traces left on the ground will be covered by wild grass and vines, and no one can see the flaws.
After the iron wings were processed, Wei Changfeng completed two great cycles of the circumference, and the originally empty Dantian true qi finally recovered by about 50%.
However, the pseudo elixir in the dantian is dull and cannot be recovered in a short while.
According to the practice requirements of the Sun-Swallowing Dan Yang Technique, he needs to regularly warm the pseudo-elixir, and it is best to supplement the pure spiritual power of heaven and earth to maintain the inexhaustible power of the pill, and even one day the transformation will be true.
After this consumption, Wei Changfeng could no longer rely on the power of the pseudo-elixir for a long time.
But this is totally worth it, otherwise he would not be Li Kui's opponent at all.
"These guys are not very good!"
Tieyi said with some displeasure: "It only has 180 taels in total, and I have buried all the weapons."
This is actually very normal. Treasure hunters will not carry much silver on them, and the same is true for hiring their martial arts disciples. Otherwise, if they have a large amount of money, they will easily attract the covetousness of the former, and they may be beaten up in the deserted wilderness.
Their employment will pay a deposit of 30% first, and then return to the city after the task is completed and then pay the remaining part.
As for the weapons of the two treasure hunters, they are very large and conspicuous, and are easy to attract attention from interested people. Therefore, for safety, giving up is the wisest choice.
Wei Changfeng knew the rules and said with a smile: "I don't know if I rely on them to make a fortune, let's find it ourselves!"
He summoned the golden armor again.
The golden armor was obviously discovered before and took Wei Changfeng over. Now the enemy has been solved, so naturally the baby has to continue searching. It would be a pity to miss it.
After searching, I really found out!
In a very secretive water grass bush on the shore of the small lake, Wei Changfeng and Iron Wing found an old black clam the size of a millstone, and a circle of crystal clear clam beads surrounding it!
"Old clams have beads!"
Wei Changfeng smiled as soon as he saw it: "This is a good omen!"
Old clams that have been put on the vintage will spit out the clam beads in their bodies in secret places. This is rare in normal times, so it is regarded as a good omen.
If you encounter it, that's a good thing!
The old clam spit out as many as twelve clam beads, each of which is the size of a longan, crystal clear and faint pearly light, looking particularly beautiful.
Tieyi also glanced straight: "Good guy, at least he's a hundred years old!"
He rubbed his hands and was eager to try: "Young master, do you want to smash it open? There must be more inside!"
A lake clam with a size of three feet square and weighing at least eighty or ninety kilograms must have a long growth year, and there must be a lot of jewelry inside the clam shell.
Wei Changfeng shook his head and said, "It is not easy for it to grow so big. It is enough to have these clam beads. It is better to throw it back into the lake."
It is extremely difficult to pry open the tightly closed clam shell. The best way is to break it directly, and the old clam will undoubtedly die.
It is not a monster, and Wei Changfeng is unwilling to use such ruthless actions. Just like when he used to dig out spiritual medicine and spiritual materials, he often left a little seedling and did not do anything to fish in the dry pond.
The clam beads spit out by the old clam are undoubtedly the best and largest, and he is already satisfied with the twelve ones.
“Okay…”
Tieyi picked up the old clam with a little regret and threw it back into the small lake.
However, letting the old clam do not mean that Wei Changfeng has no other gains. With the help of the golden armor, he and Tieyi searched along the lake shore and collected a lot of valuable herbs and spiritual materials.
Seeing that the time was almost over, the two of them embarked on the journey back with a lot of harvest.
I rushed all the way and saw Jingyun City, it was completely dark.
Without worrying about rest, Wei Changfeng took Tieyi directly to Sihai Pavilion.
The person who received him was still Wan Haoming, the manager of Sihai Pavilion.
The two of them are now familiar with each other. When they saw Wei Changfeng, they smiled and asked, "Young Master Wei, what are the concerns for you this time? And this one is..."
In fact, after several transactions, Wan Haoming has clearly understood Wei Changfeng's identity and origin through his connections in Jingyun City through Sihai Pavilion.
But knowing Wei Changfeng's identity does not mean that Wan Haoming will underestimate Wei Changfeng.
Not everyone can know the secret of the Sihai Chamber of Commerce and the identity of the concubine's son of the clan, which makes Wan Haoming feel unseen, so he always maintains enough enthusiasm and respect for Wei Changfeng.
On the other hand, Wei Changfeng is also a very good customer.
"This is my senior brother, Tieyi, Iron Brother. He just came back from the mountain with me and wanted to take off some things."
Wei Changfeng briefly introduced: "Please give me a price!"
Wan Haoming smiled and said, "It's easy to say, it's easy to say!"
After inviting Wei Changfeng and Tieyi to the private room, Wan Haoming identified the things they brought.
He finally gave a purchase price of 7,450 taels of silver.
The money was a bit beyond Wei Changfeng's expectations, not low but a little high.
Especially the inner alchemy of the Black Wolf King, Wei Changfeng was probably only over a thousand, but Wan Haoming directly paid 1,500 taels, plus the wolf teeth and wolf claws, a total of 2,000 taels.
As for other spiritual medicines and materials, it has obviously increased by one or two percent!
Wan Haoming saw Wei Changfeng's doubts and took the initiative to explain: "Your Madam Wei, you may not know that in recent times, the prices of all herbs and spiritual materials have been rising."
"The main reason is that many foreign merchants came to buy it, and many elixirs in the city are out of stock!"
So that's it! Wei Changfeng nodded.
Wan Haoming said frankly: "Young Master Wei, if you are not in a hurry to use money, put this batch of materials first, and it should be more expensive in a while."
The reputation of the Sihai Chamber of Commerce is not revealed. If it were other profit-oriented businessmen, they would like to keep the lower the price, the better. How could they tell the truth honestly?
But Sihai Pavilion is doing a hundred-year-old business and will never be petty about small profits.
Wei Changfeng smiled and said, "No need, I have something to bother you."
"I hope to hear it carefully!"
Wei Changfeng thought for a while and said, "I want to buy a house, but it doesn't need to be too big. It's enough to live in a dozen people, but the location and environment must be good, and the price should be within 5,000 taels of silver."
Jingyun is not easy to live in. As the only city within a radius of hundreds of miles, Jingyun City has a population of hundreds of thousands, and there is no borderless land in the city.
Therefore, the price of houses is also very expensive, especially the streets where famous families and wealthy merchants and gentry live together, every inch of land is valuable, and good houses are often priced but not marketable.
Wei Changfeng's requirements are definitely not that high, but he had long wanted to move to a place where he could basically ensure the safety of his mother and two sisters.
Now the civilian areas where they live are mixed and the environment is quite harsh, which makes it difficult for Wei Changfeng, who is often in the martial arts academy, to rest assured and to come back to check it out from time to time.
So the first thing to make money is to buy a suitable house and improve the family’s life!
Sihai Pavilion has a big business, with pawnshops and money shops. It is impossible for them to not get involved in such a good deal of house trading.
Hearing Wei Changfeng's request, Wan Haoming did not show any discomfort: "Please wait!"
He got up and left the private room.
At this time, Tieyi, who had been silent all the time, breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Young master, I didn't expect that you are so familiar with the people in Sihai Pavilion and the business is so big!"
Wei Changfeng shook his head: "This is nothing. You will have the chance to meet a real big business in the future."
After a pause, he continued, "Old Tie, if you buy the house, your whole family will move here too!"
As a retainer, of course you have to live in the master's house, which is the treatment you deserve.
Tieyi was not surprised, but just said gratefully: "Thank you, my boss!"
Wei Changfeng smiled and said, "No need to thank me, you originally had a share of the money you earned today!"
Without Tieyi's help, how could he sit here like now and easily negotiate a deal of thousands of taels of silver with Sihai Pavilion.
While talking, Wan Haoming quickly returned to the private room.
He brought three house deeds to Wei Changfeng and selected three houses for Wei Changfeng to choose.
