Volume 1 Chapter 20 Ancient Formation Diagram
"Ninth Uncle, this..."
Nightshade stared at Long Jiu dumbfounded, his eyes full of puzzlement. But Long Jiu just waved his hand and stared at Zhuo Fan's calm face with one eye.
Zhuo Fan also looked at Long Jiu, and after a while, a sinister smile curled up at the corner of his mouth: "It's too low."
"Varied……"
Zhuo Fan's words made everyone cry out in surprise, not only Solanx, but Luo Yunshang and Commander Pang looked at him in disbelief.
1.8 million, this is already unimaginable wealth for the Luo family. Even Luo Yunshang, the eldest lady, never dreamed that the Luo family would one day have so many spiritual stones, but in the eyes of Zhuo Fan, who was born as a servant, it was still too low?
This made both Luo Yunshang and Commander Pang feel a little dazed. If Zhuo Fan grew up in Guiyun Village, they must have thought that he was born in Wangsun Guizhou.
His eyes are too high.
However, the impact of Zhuo Fan's remarks has not dissipated, but Long Jiu's answer shocked everyone again.
"The old man understands this, but 1.8 million is all the funds that the old man can mobilize now, and there is no more."
"Uh...then let's sell Jiuye's face, 1.8 million is 1.8 million." Luo Yunshang wiped the fine sweat on his forehead and smiled awkwardly.
She would never have thought that a casual painting by Zhuo Fan was so valuable that Shenyan Longjiu could spend all his financial resources to acquire it.
Moreover, looking at Long Jiu's appearance, it seems that he is bound to win this painting. It would be better to sell his personal feelings, and by the way, he can also befriend Qianlong Pavilion.
Sure enough, after hearing Luo Yunshang's words, Long Jiu showed a relieved smile, and carefully rolled up the scroll with both hands.
However, at this moment, with a touch, Zhuo Fan pressed the scroll on the table with one palm, and said coldly, "Since you can't afford a higher price, this business is cancelled."
"Zhuofan!"
Luo Yunshang was startled and winked frequently at Zhuo Fan, but Zhuo Fan seemed to have not seen it, and his hand holding the scroll was not loose at all.
Squinting his eyes slightly, Long Jiu's powerful aura suddenly pressed on Zhuo Fan: "Boy, this old man has to decide."
Feeling the aura of the terrifying powerhouse, everyone was forced to retreat, and Luo Yunshang and Commander Pang showed a look of astonishment on their faces.
Long Jiu is a more terrifying powerhouse than Cai Rong. If he offends him, he will be killed in seconds.
Only Zhuo Fan endured this momentum and looked at him with a sneer: "Jiuye, if you do this, it will damage the prestige of Qianlong Pavilion."
"Boy, aren't you afraid?" Long Jiu said with a little more momentum.
"Hmph, Jiuye, aren't you afraid?" Zhuo Fan sneered and asked back.
Slightly stunned, Long Jiu suddenly put away his aura, and said with a big laugh, "Hahaha... good boy, the Luo family is supported by people like you, don't worry salted fish can't turn over."
Seeing this scene, everyone could not help but stunned, inexplicable. The two of them were fighting with each other just now, but now they disappeared in an instant, and the atmosphere eased all of a sudden.
But how do they know that the two of them have just had a strong psychological contest.
Long Jiu released his momentum to oppress Zhuo Fan, naturally he wanted him to be subdued and sold the picture to himself. However, Zhuo Fan's rhetorical question under pressure has another meaning. After all, Qianlong Pavilion is the only business family in the Seventh Family. If there is a forced buying and selling, it will inevitably damage the family's honor.
Zhuo Fan gambled with his own life and the status of family honor in Long Jiu's mind, and Zhuo Fan won the bet.
Taking a deep look at Zhuo Fan, Long Jiu said frankly and honestly: "Boy, I know that you came to Qianlong Pavilion not only to sell this picture, but open it up under any conditions."
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and Zhuo Fan pushed the picture in front of Long Jiu and said with a smile: "The asking price is 10 million, we will pay 1 million first, and then pay it back slowly, when you owe us."
"This……"
Long Jiu looked at the picture in front of his hand, thought about it for a long time, and finally nodded: "Okay, until it is paid off, our Qianlong Pavilion owes you the Luo family."
After speaking, Long Jiu picked up the scroll and walked out of the living room without saying a word. It was only after his figure disappeared that his voice came from a distance: "Xiao Kui, give them one million and see off."
"Uh, yes!"
Nightshade hesitated for a while, puzzled. She had never seen Long Jiu's depressed expression before. When he turned to look at Zhuo Fan again, he saw that the butler of the Luo family, who had been happy and angry since entering the door, showed a satisfied smile for the first time.
Then, Solanum nigrum gave Zhuo Fan one million spirit stones and then sent them out.
At the door, the two guards were about to give them a lesson when they came out, but they were stunned when they saw Solanum nigrum respectfully sending them out. But when I heard that the transaction amount reached one million this time, I was instantly dumbfounded.
They would never have imagined that in such a remote town, there could be such a big deal. Even in the history of Qianlong Pavilion's transaction, it can still be ranked in the top three positions.
"Honey, fortunately I didn't do it, otherwise it would be a big disaster." One guard looked at the back of the four leaving, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and sighed, while the other nodded like a chicken eating rice.
Qianlong Pavilion treats big households with great respect. If anyone in Qianlong Pavilion offends them, they will definitely be severely punished by the family.
Especially for such a large family with millions of dollars, even the slightest disrespect to them is a capital offense.
Thinking of this, the two guards were dripping with sweat
...
On the other hand, after Solanx sent Zhuo Fan and the others away, he came to Long Jiu's room again, only to see that at this moment, Long Jiu was sitting at his desk and carefully observing the first-level formation map.
"Ninth uncle, isn't it just a first-level formation diagram? How could it be possible to offer a sky-high price of 10 million yuan? I have never seen anything worth 10 million yuan?" Solanx hurriedly asked as soon as he entered the door.
With a sigh, Long Jiu called Solanum Kui to his side and said, "Xiao Kui, take a good look at this picture, I'm afraid it's the only one in the Tianyu Empire."
"This is..." Nightshade stared, surprised.
"Ancient Array Diagram!"
Long Jiu's eyes flashed with excitement, and even his voice trembled slightly: "The ancient formation has long since been lost, but from the records of ancient books, it can't be wrong, this is the ancient formation diagram. This is a priceless treasure. Ah, how can 10 million spirit stones be compared."
"What, is this picture really so precious?"
Nodding, Long Jiu had a childlike smile on his face, as if he had encountered his favorite toy. But soon, as if thinking of something, his face immediately turned gloomy.
"Xiao Kui, you asked Ajie to find four or five good people to protect the Luo family. They offended the Sun family yesterday."
"Why are we going to protect them?" Nightshade asked puzzled.
Long Jiu snorted and said lightly, "Did you not hear just now, we owe them this."
Hearing this, Solanum nigrum reacted. It turned out that Zhuo Fan and Long Jiu had bargained for this matter.
However, Ninth Uncle is an experienced veteran after all, but this negotiation was overwhelmed by a young yellow-haired boy, no wonder he was unhappy.
Thinking of this, Solanum nigrum involuntarily "puchi" and laughed...
