There are also two imprints on the black card—usually three, and sometimes four.
Each mark represents a discount on the transaction gold. For example, when there are three marks, you can get a 30% discount by using the first one, then a 20% discount, and a 10% discount for the last one.
When Jin Zifu brought the black card for the first time, it was the last imprint left on the black card. And that kind of black card has actually become invalid. The one that Luo Qiu handed to Cao Ziqian later was re-imprinted by him.
As for the black card with the fourth imprint—feel the feeling of a 40% discount on the originally generous transaction fee!
How interesting... This black card seems to be the one I met in Gu Yuezhai today, Luo Qiu thought slightly.
But it doesn't matter who owns the black card, the key is that the person holding the card has arrived.
At this time, Zhong Luochen had already sat down, and Luo Qiu was already sitting opposite him. You Ye has already presented the carefully prepared scented tea. It's a pity that no matter who comes in, it seems that they are not in the mood to taste it.
It will eventually cool and dry out.
"Does Mr. Zhong know the rules here?" Luo Qiu suddenly asked - if he got this black card from Gu Yuezhai, then it's hard to guess how much he knows about the club.
There will also be times when it is necessary to explain the club's trading rules to the guests.
"Mr. Clown, please tell me!" Zhong Luochen collected himself and looked at Luo Qiu calmly—in his opinion, facing this kind of mysterious unknown, it is best to put away his superiority as an ordinary person and maintain The utmost courtesy and humility.
Luo Qiu said: "The cardholder is a member of the club. There are still two stamps left on the black card in your hand, so you can still enjoy transaction discounts twice."
Zhong Luochen nodded, thinking in his mind, no wonder Mrs. Zhang still hesitated when she took out the jade lock. It was because the origin of this black card was unusual.
"That… "
"You can enjoy 20% off now. After finishing this time, it will be 10% off." Luo Qiu said indifferently: "It was originally 30% off... but it has been used once."
Zhong Luochen nodded again: "Mr. Clown, I already understand... But I want to make sure that you can really buy everything here?"
Luo Qiu said: "Of course...it's impossible. If the thing you want to buy, sir, is something like the destruction of the world, do you think we have the ability to sell it to you? After all, if the world doesn't exist, our club will buy it for you." Closed."
Zhong Luochen nodded in agreement.
Unexpectedly, Luo Qiu suddenly said quietly: "Besides, it is impossible for you to pay the transaction fee to destroy the world... even if you have a discount."
Zhong Luochen's heart couldn't help but jump right away... Is this a joke, or something else
Luo Qiu said again: "It's far away, let's talk about what you want as a guest."
He is like a magic stick, "Wealth? Fame? Women? Or power? As long as you want, and you can afford the price."
"I want to buy my life!" Zhong Luochen took a deep breath and said heavily.
After speaking, he watched Luo Qiu's every move nervously but calmly. Although the other party was wearing a clown mask, he could still tell something through his body language.
But he couldn't see anything.
The clown in front of him seemed to be motionless, just staring at him quietly until Zhong Luochen broke out in a cold sweat, and finally heard the other party say: "Of course, no problem. I don't know who Mr. Zhong wants." Life? What are you going to use to buy this life? By the way, I forgot to tell you, we don’t charge money here.”
"My grandfather." Zhong Luochen said in a deep voice, "He has a brain tumor and is now unconscious. We have already invited the best doctors at home and abroad, but there is no way to treat him. I just hope that he can survive this time. "
After hearing this, Luo Qiu said: "Guest, I don't care what kind of illness your grandfather has. What I care about is that you want to buy your grandfather's life... How long is it? One year? Five years? Or ten years?"
Zhong Luochen looked at Luo Qiu and said, "How long can I buy at most?"
Luo Qiu said: "This is up to you to decide. You have to think how much your grandfather's life is worth every minute, and then how much you can bear."
"Ten years... no..." Zhong Luochen hesitated for a moment and then said: "Five years, as long as five years! As for the price... I don't know how to measure it, I hope you can tell me. Hidden trade, but it's also voluntary here, so I'm sure you won't be misleading."
But it will guide...
Luo Qiu was silent for a while. His silence made Zhong Luochen look even more uneasy. The young man seemed to be trying his best to hide his uneasiness, so he finally picked up the scented tea brewed by You Ye and drank it lightly.
"Do you want to use the lifespan of three hours to buy the materials of Grandpa Zhong Luochen?"
"Do you want to use the lifespan of three hours to buy Zhong Luochen's materials?"
"… Um."
But Quiet is just thinking on the surface, behind the scenes Luo Qiu is using his mind to communicate with the altar on the third floor—after successfully completing the transaction for the first time, just as You Ye said, Luo Qiu's ability will gradually become stronger. Get stronger.
For example, now, you can directly communicate with the altar with your mind, and exchange your lifespan for the information you want.
The existence of the altar allows Luo Qiu to continuously prolong his lifespan, but at the same time it seems to be constantly exploiting his lifespan.
Because he was still holding a white jade card worth 70 days of lifespan, Luo Qiu simply chose to buy materials... Let's consider it as an initial investment.
However, my life was short for six hours, and I always feel a little heartache...
…
It wasn't until Zhong Luochen drank half of the scented tea that Luo Qiu spoke slowly: "Sir, you should know that your grandfather's life is related to the fate of many people...whether it is you as relatives or others as enemies. If grandfather can live one more day, countless people will be fed and clothed, and countless wives will be separated... and these only need his decision."
Zhong Luochen thought deeply and said, "It's because of this that we can't let him die like this!"
At this time, Luo Qiu suddenly reached out and swept across the table, and several patterned cards appeared out of nowhere on the blank table, "Since you have entrusted me with the right to estimate the value, I will give you an estimate. Please see .”
Luo Qiu opened the first chapter card on the left, with the number '30' written on it. Luo Qiu explained: "You can use your thirty years of life to buy your grandfather's five years of life."
Zhong Luochen was taken aback for a moment, and then he became a little annoyed and said, "Thirty years can only be exchanged for five years? What kind of deal is this?"
Luo Qiu said indifferently: "Mr. Zhong, as far as I know, your family is in your generation, including you, there are three people in total. The three of you are equally capable, and no one has an advantage. Therefore, the three of you can inherit a huge family. 1/3 of each person. In addition, the Zhong family's country was built by your grandfather, but even if you have outstanding abilities and even inherited your family, you only need ten years to complete it. To be able to achieve the influence that your grandfather has now, you should have thought about it yourself? Of course, ten years is already the optimal calculation. So... Ten years, tripled, is thirty years."
Zhong Luochen was silent for a moment, "What is the second card?"
Luo Qiu opened the second chapter of the card, with the word 'wisdom' written on it.
This is easy to understand, that is, to exchange one's life's wisdom for five years of grandpa's life—this way his lifespan will not be reduced, and he will still be the young master of the Zhong family, but he may become mediocre.
In fact, it meant exchanging one's own life—obviously, this was something Zhong Luochen could not accept.
"What's the third one?" Zhong Luochen swallowed subconsciously.
Luo Qiu lightly lifted the third card, on which was written 'happiness'.
"What does this mean?" Zhong Luochen frowned in confusion.
Luo Qiu said indifferently: "It's very simple, no matter what you get in the future, you will not be able to feel any happiness. You will not be able to feel the preciousness of love, you will forget the rarity of family affection, you will lose the joy of obtaining offspring, and even the satisfaction Feelings will leave you... no matter what you do or how you do it."
Seeing Zhong Luochen's silent appearance, Luo Qiu stretched out his hand to open the cards in the fourth chapter.
Unexpectedly, Zhong Luochen stopped suddenly at this moment: "No need, just use my happiness as trading gold!"
Luo Qiu was slightly surprised and said: "Mr. Zhong, you should understand that it is one of your rights to see the end."
Zhong Luochen sneered and said, "I'm afraid it will only get worse if you look behind. This is indeed a place to make deals with demons. I can't trade my life for it, and I won't give up my wisdom!"
"Is that why you choose happiness?"
Zhong Luochen raised his head and said confidently: "Yes! But don't forget that I have a black card, so if I exchange happiness, I can also enjoy a discount... That is to say, at least one or two things can bring me happiness. You can't take away the things that satisfy you!"
Luo Qiu knocked on the table irresistibly, "Then what do you plan to keep? Although it's only a 20% discount, you can only keep one at most. Although there are many things that can bring happiness, they can be summarized into a few. Love, family, interest, achievement, and peace of mind.”
"Keep the achievements for me." Zhong Luochen said directly.
"Are you sure? Perhaps a better choice will come at the end." Luo Qiu said indifferently.
Zhong Luochen shook his head and said, "I believe in my own feelings. It's useless to talk too much."
Luo Qiu had no choice but to nod, and then stretched out his hand again. In front of Zhong Luochen, an old parchment scroll began to slowly unfold, "If the guest has decided, press your palm on it. In this way, The contract of purchase and sale will come into force.”
Zhong Luochen pressed his palm directly. His heart suddenly contracted at this moment, almost feeling as if he was suffocating. Zhong Luochen panted heavily, looking in horror.
Luo Qiu said indifferently: "Don't worry, as long as the transaction is completed, you will be safe as a customer. And we always give the goods first, and then collect the transaction fee... This contract is actually just a small guarantee, because we don't want to see it. The customer who got the product is not willing to pay the transaction fee."
Zhong Luochen took a deep breath and said, "Okay! So, is my grandfather healed now?"
Luo Qiu shook his head and said: "Don't worry. The first step, you bring your grandfather to this place first... Well, you don't need to come to me directly, just find a place to settle down... After finishing the first step, You should know how to find me."
The black card appeared in Zhong Luochen's pocket again, and he nodded, quickly opened the door of the club, and walked out of the bustling street.
Looking at Zhong Luochen leaving, Luo Qiu shook his head. In fact, he can take the initiative to go there, but it is not the ability to shuttle, but needs to take a vehicle.
His ability is not strong enough to allow him to cross several provinces—in fact, he can only move around the city at most.
As for the other reason, there is actually nothing.
just being lazy...
…
"Congratulations, master, a deal has been negotiated."
You Ye said to Luo Qiu's side without hesitation in admiration.
Luo Qiu took off the clown mask on his face, fanned the wind and said, "The deal hasn't been completed yet, so there's no need to be happy. And because of the 20% discount, I always feel like I've lost a lot."
But after all, it is one of the rules, even if Luo Qiu feels that he is at a loss, there is nothing he can do about it—although it is said that Zhong Luochen's achievement of happiness is preserved, but the value of the rest is far beyond Luo Qiu's if sacrificed. estimate.
Of course, after the transaction is completed.
"Master, what is the fourth card?" You Ye asked curiously.
Luo Qiu shook his head, without saying anything, picked up his cane and walked upstairs.
You Ye tilted his head, but stretched out his hand and turned over the fourth card that Luo Qiu didn't take away.
What is written is: 20 years of doing good deeds.
She knew that the transaction gold that needs to be paid for the fourth card is not ready-made, but Zhong Luochen needs to maintain the standard of doing good deeds in the next twenty years, and can't do any bad things until the deadline is over. will be completed.
In the words of this country in the East, it is: doing good deeds and accumulating virtue.
Use the merits accumulated over twenty years of doing good deeds as the final transaction gold.
"Master, it's a little bad."
The beautiful maid doll smiled and put away the cards.
