Gongsun Shuo smiled and said: "I am here to ask the noble clan chief for something, and I hope you can help me." As he said this, he took out the banknotes he had prepared in advance from his arms. The large face of a thousand taels was almost spent. The eyes of the Eastern Witch Master.
Master Dongwu hurriedly held the ticket in his hand and said with a smile: "Easy to say, come with me!"
As the saying goes, money can make the world go round. If you don't have money, not to mention meeting the leader of the Wu clan, it will be even more difficult to go one step further.
Master Dongwu took them directly to a courtyard on the mountainside. The house was simple but very clean. There were no servants inside. The huge courtyard was empty.
Master Dongwu opened the courtyard door directly and led them in without saying a word of greeting.
"You guys wait a moment, I'll go in and report."
Everyone waited in the courtyard as promised. Zhu Yan was always anxious, but he could only wait patiently. The strange thing was that Master Dongwu said to go in and report, but he didn't hear a single sound.
With the power of his ears, if someone spoke inside, it was impossible for him not to hear it.
After a while, footsteps came out from inside. The footsteps were fast and light at first, and then became heavy and slow.
I saw an old man in a flowered robe walking out of the room, holding a walking stick in his hand. He was wearing a dark gray cloak outside the flowered robe. The cloak was hooded, covering most of his face. After covering it up, you can only see the chin covered with gray beard and the tall red nose.
The old man said in a deep voice: "Are you the visitors from afar that Dongwu mentioned?"
Mo Tiandu said: "We are from Kyoto and would like to ask Master Wugui to help us find someone."
The old man coughed, but his voice was still dull: "It's easy to find someone, but it's just the cost -"
Zhu Yan hurriedly said: "As long as you can find someone, you can make an offer, and Zhu will not hesitate."
The corners of the old man's lips were visibly raised, and he kept nodding his head and said: "Okay, that's settled. You know, the blood-seeking technique cannot be used casually, and my body will also be damaged, so this It’s normal for the fees to be higher.”
The majestic leader of the Wu Clan always talks about money, and on this hot day, other people would feel hot even if they were wearing one. He actually wrapped up his whole body. Isn't it hot
Xu is eager to find people. Although everyone has some doubts in their hearts, in order to find Yuan Qiu as soon as possible, no one raised these doubts.
Zhu Yan said: "As long as I can find someone, I will give you any price."
The old man pondered for a while, stretched out his palm and said: "Fifty thousand taels, gold."
Zhu Yan nodded without saying anything: "As long as I can find it, I will give you one hundred thousand gold."
The old man was obviously stunned. He had already made up his mind to offer 50,000 yuan, but he didn't expect that the other party would actually offer him 100,000 yuan. He was secretly upset that he should have offered a higher price.
Now that the price has been negotiated, he can no longer go back on his words. He coughed twice and said in a calm voice: "There are many of you, so don't all come in, just a few."
The old man turned around and walked into the room first. Zhu Yan, Baili Changfeng, Mo Tiandu, Xia Yuanhao, Jiang Xin, and Gongsun Shuo quickly followed, while the others stayed outside.
The old man looked back and saw that the room, which was not big in the first place, immediately seemed very cramped with so many people following him. However, for the sake of the money, he endured it.
The old man sat down in a chair and said in a deep voice: "Just in case, you'd better give me money first, lest I try my best to help you find the person later, and you rely on the strength of the crowd to leave. Let it go."
