As for how this technology came about and how to use it, the village chief of Chale did not say, nor did Su Chen ask.
The two sides maintained a rare tacit understanding at this time. After all, the foundation of mutual trust is the hatred of the blood nobles.
While learning about the relationship between Hexi and the bloodline nobles from Chale, Su Chen also roughly talked about the grievances between himself and the bloodline nobles.
Boasting is not good to say by yourself, so I let Gang Yan speak on his own behalf.
After hearing that Su Chen killed the Yuandu Office, took control of the Yuandu Office, and washed the Qinghe Pier with blood, a group of villagers had their eyes straightened, and their eyes were full of admiration when they saw Su Chen.
Old man Chale was even more excited:
"Su Zhixing, we have hatreds with the bloodline aristocrats, it is like-minded! If we can unite together, we will definitely be able to fight against those evil aristocrats!"
Su Chen smiled: "There is something the village head may have misunderstood."
"what?"
Su Chen replied: "I have never said that I have enemies with those bloodline nobles. What I said is that I have always been the person they want to kill."
Chale was taken aback: "Does it make any difference?"
"Of course there is a difference. As the source capital, I, Su Chen, know and act, and what I do is for the majesty of the heavens, to eat the emperor’s salary, and to be loyal to the emperor. It’s just that my deeds are not pleasing to those nobles. Conflict is not what I want. Even so, in my opinion, there is still no private grievances between me and the bloodline nobles, only business affairs. Therefore, if the nobles do not come to my troubles, I will not take the initiative. Trouble them."
Everyone was dumbfounded by this.
Su Chen actually rejected them.
This is not surprising.
Although the villagers are simple, they also have their own cunning side. Just now, Chale kept saying that he was the same enemy as Su Chen. To put it bluntly, he wanted Su Chen to work for nothing and work his life for them, and didn't want to give any benefits.
If you change to someone else, perhaps you will agree.
If it were replaced by someone who was really poor and had no benefit to give, Su Chen might have agreed.
But it was Su Chen that they found, but they weren't completely insecure.
Yes, at least in Su Chen's eyes, they were sitting on wealth without realizing it.
This wealth does not refer to the resources in the Hexi Forest, but their way to fight against the curse, and is their secret technique for domesticating fierce beasts.
Su Chen attached great importance to these two things.
Since the other party had something of interest to him, Su Chen couldn't let it go.
Here Chale heard Su Chen's refusal, a little anxious: "Su Zhixing, one of our guardian saint beasts died because of you..."
He does not mention remuneration, only claims, which is really unpleasant.
Gang Yan snorted, even Su Chen frowned slightly.
But he still smiled and said: "Oh, when it comes to this, the things promised before are naturally counted. A peak beast is also worth some money. In the outside, a peak beast is worth less. Two thousand source stones, Guizhai is only tame, and the price is definitely much higher. I will calculate it by ten times, and I will not lose you."
He said that he had taken out 20,000 source stones from his source ring and paid it to the other party.
The price of 20,000 source stones is really not a small amount. Under normal circumstances, it is okay to bargain at eighty ten thousand yuan. It can be said that Su Chen will not be wronged wherever this matter is mentioned.
But the village chief didn't mean to be happy when he saw Yuan Shi, but wanted to cry without tears.
They are now completely sealed off by the Qinghe nobles, unable to sell goods, can't buy things, and there is a shit to ask for money.
It is true that the source stone can assist in cultivation, but there are not many cultivation in the village.
However, Su Chen gave the money so generously that he wanted to settle everything clearly.
He said, "Now I don't owe you anything, right?"
Said that he was going to leave.
Chale was anxious at first sight and hurriedly stopped Su Chen: "Su Zhixing, we don’t need money, but you can help us. To be honest, the blood nobleman has come to Hexilin and has been in Hexilin for the past few days. To attack us, we rely on the guardian beasts to resist them. But the other party has already started calling for reinforcements. If this continues, it is estimated that sooner or later it will be unstoppable. Su Zhixing, you and the bloodline nobles are also enemies. You help us to block them, and it is also for you. It is of great benefit! Weakening the enemy means strengthening ourselves!"
Sure enough, this old man still has some culture, he knew that weakening the enemy is strengthening oneself.
Su Chen shook his head, "I'm sorry, you are not in my plan. Whether you have or not has no effect on me."
Said and walked out again.
Seeing that he was not paying attention, the old man shouted: "Well, if you are willing to stay and help us, I am willing to give you the way to resist the curse!"
Hearing this, Su Chen stopped and glanced back at him, with a cold sneer in his eyes: "Captain Chale, I didn't harm you, but why do you want to harm me?"
Chale was taken aback: "What does this mean?"
"I am really interested in your ways to resist the curse, but when you think about it, you can know that this method must have huge limitations. It is this limitation that prevents you from leaving the dense forests of Hexi for a long time, and also prevents the nobles of blood. Choose to use it. Otherwise, where would I need to do business with you? After using that method directly, can I collect resources by myself over the years?"
Chale stagnated, but he didn't expect Su Chen to see it so clearly.
Su Chen already said: "Since the words have already been said, I may as well tell you directly. Want me to help you fight back those nobles? That's okay. But I want to resist the curse, and I need this method to control the beast. Both are indispensable."
"No, the method of taming holy beasts must not be given to them!" The warrior commander had already yelled.
Su Chen was also not angry.
After all, this is the foundation of other people's survival, and it is normal not to be willing to hand it over easily.
Su Chen nodded: "It's okay, you guys think slowly. Anyway, I will stay in this Hexi Forest for some time. Whenever I agree, just tell me."
Chale said anxiously: "The Hexi Curse is terrifying. Su Zhixing can resist it for a while, but it may not be able to resist it in the long run. It is not a good idea to stay here for a long time, unless it is in our village..."
He stopped halfway through his words.
Su Chen didn't care, but just smiled and said, "Everyone has his own life. If I really can't resist this curse, I will recognize it when I die. Of course, as long as I'm still alive, my previous proposal will always be effective."
The villagers were speechless.
Su Chen said again: "Of course, even if this business cannot be done, I think we still have some other businesses to do. For example, I can collect some of the goods you want to sell. I have more things you need. Can’t bring it, it’s always okay to provide a small amount."
Hearing this, the village chief Chale sighed, knowing that the current situation can only be like this.
That night, Su Chen and Chale traded a batch of goods at a price five times the purchase price of those nobles.
Even so, Su Chen was equivalent to buying this batch of goods at one-twentieth of the market price.
If it were not for the improvement of cultivation base, Su Chen really wanted to make a few trips between the dense forests of Hexi and Qinghe City to become a resource dealer.
