"Haiz, actually this isn't a problem of money. To me, it is a huge burden. The main thing is that the Prince loves the people, so if I don't sacrifice something, how can I do it?" Lin Fan said.
Huang Boren, please remember that you are investing in Martial Path Mountain and actually said that it wasn't a small amount.
You fellow …
White Brow had never heard of a way to defend against Yin Demons.
However, looking at Sect Leader Lin, he didn't look like he was spouting nonsense.
"Okay, I agree. I will also thank Sect Leader Lin on behalf of the Jiang City people." Xiao Qi cupped his fists. "Sect Leader Lin, please do it quickly. I will send the silver over."
Yuan Tianchu looked at Lin Fan.
There was a plot.
There was definitely a plot.
He didn't believe that surnamed Lin would be so kind to help others.
Even if he was beaten to death, he wouldn't believe it.
A bunch of stupid mortals. They were sold and still counted the money for others. Even the way he looked at the Prince changed like he was saying that the Prince was just so so.
His brain wasn't working as fast as mine.
"Don't worry, no Yin Demons will enter Jiang City tonight. The Prince doesn't have to worry." Lin Fan said.
Xiao Qi heaved a sigh of relief. However, he was still a little doubtful and wasn't sure whether or not this matter would succeed.
Jiang City.
Chen Shengyao looked at the faces of the people who returned and heaved a sigh of relief. They were all smiling and it was obvious that the Prince agreed.
Manager You told him that he couldn't let the Prince leave.
If not, Jiang City would be in danger.
After which, Manager You ordered people to spread the news that the Prince wanted to leave. If Jiang City didn't have him, then everyone would die.
How would the people want to die?
They would definitely gather together and beg the Prince to stay.
"Manager You, you did well." Chen Shengyao said.
"Young Master, we can only do that. As long as the Prince is in Jiang City, then there will be a way." Manager You said.
In times of danger, when everyone was helpless, if there was someone with a high position, then everyone would have a thought to believe in him. As long as they followed him, they would be able to get through this.
Chen Shengyao muttered.
Prince, don't blame me, I had no choice.
White Brow, who left Martial Path Mountain, frowned helplessly, "Your Royal Highness, you shouldn't have agreed to those commoners.
"White Brow, there is no need to speak of this matter anymore. I have already made up my mind. As a prince, no matter what danger I face, I cannot abandon the common people. The ancestor who founded the dynasty still fled with the common people when the enemy chased after him."
"How can the current me abandon them?"
Xiao Qi deeply respected the Old Ancestor who created the dynasty. That was benevolent and he was working hard to learn.
White Brow was speechless. If he had to say something disgraceful, he would definitely say, "Your Highness, do you think you're protecting your people by running away with them?"
The truth was that there was an ulterior motive.
It could be summed up in a few sentences.
Win over the hearts of the people, stabilize the morale of the army, carry resources, and act as a shield.
In the end, it was just like that.
"Your Highness is benevolent, this servant admires you." White Brow was filled with respect, "However, Your Highness, the 60,000 silver that Sect Leader Lin mentioned, was it personally given by Your Highness?"
"I don't have money." Xiao Qi said, "Let's go find those Jiang City merchant families and let them split it. It isn't much anyway."
To Xiao Qi, to let him stay and take money, did they really think he was a fool?
He didn't have money.
Even if he did, it was given by the Jiang City merchant families themselves.
After Xiao Qi returned to Jiang City, he saw Chen Shengyao waiting at the city gate. He told him to call all the merchants in the city over as he had something important to discuss.
Chen Shengyao was delighted.
It was okay as long as His Highness didn't leave.
If he really had no choice, to have His Highness accompany him was a huge gain.
There were many merchants in Jiang City, but there were basically none who could reach the level of Chen Family and Huang Family. The rest were mid-sized merchants who didn't have much power, but they were really rich.
"I have a way to protect Jiang City." Xiao Qi opened his mouth and said.
His first sentence made everyone very happy.
What happened in the last few days made everyone panic. Now that His Highness confirmed it, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
"However, to protect Jiang City, we need to pay five thousand silver to Martial Path Mountain." Xiao Qi continued.
Some merchants were moved to tears, "His Highness is kind, not only going through thick and thin with Jiang City, but also paying. We are grateful to His Highness."
"That's right, that's right."
"His Highness is a wise ruler in the future."
Xiao Qi waved his hands, these merchants were about to die and still wanted to take advantage of him. Did they really think that he came out from a bunch of fools?
"This money isn't paid by me, but by everyone here, split it equally."
"En?"
Some merchants were shocked, split it equally?
That was a little terrifying.
This was different from what they thought.
Xiao Qi said, "Don't think that I am stingy, actually my Royal Family is proud of being thrifty. Don't think that I am a prince, actually all my wealth added up can't even be compared to a fraction of all of you. Do you believe me?"
Who would believe you? You are such a bad prince.
But how could they say that?
All of them nodded their heads, they definitely believed him. Who had the balls to say 'I don't believe you'?
"His Highness, isn't five thousand silver to Martial Path Mountain a little too much? Moreover, we aren't sure if Martial Path Mountain can protect Jiang City." A merchant asked weakly.
His aura wasn't strong enough and he felt a little weak.
He was facing the Royal Highness. For a commoner like him to be able to sit here and talk to the Royal Highness, it was already a blessing to his ancestors.
Xiao Qi said, "I will tell you the truth. The evil demons outside aren't anything else but Yin Demons. They specialize in eating human blood and flesh. No matter where you hide, no matter how deep you hide, they can eat you up unknowingly."
"So it doesn't matter whether you believe me or not. You can wait for me to gather the Imperial Dynasty experts to wipe them out. When that happens, you don't need to pay."
These fellows really made one feel despair.
At such a time, they were still thinking about money. If not for the pleas of the Jiang City people, he wouldn't have stayed here.
All the merchants sucked in a deep cold breath.
How terrifying.
His Highness's words were just too terrifying.
Chen Shengyao stepped out and said, "What are you all thinking about? Do you want money or your life? My Chen Family agrees. "
Huang Boren said, "My Huang Family agrees too."
The rest of the people looked at each other and agreed one after another. How should they split it equally?
If they gave too much, they were a little reluctant.
If they gave too little, naturally, they couldn't.
Outside of General City.
"Is your method reliable or not?" Lin Fan asked.
He hoped that Zhang Tianshan wouldn't disappoint him.
This was a long-term business. Did he know what a business was?
It was to lay at home and not do anything. Every day, he would count money until his hands cramped.
"Of course it is reliable. When have I not been reliable?" Zhang Tianshan pushed a small cart. There were many stones in it. There wasn't anything special about these stones. The surface was red like it was dyed in blood.
To Lin Fan, these stones looked like the Hailuo Red Stone.
Zhang Tianshan walked for a while and stopped. He raised his head and looked at the sky. He acted like he was calculating with his fingers. He picked up a stone and dug a hole at the corner of the city wall before burying it.
Lin Fan followed behind and found it weird, "What stone is this?"
Zhang Tianshan smiled, "You don't understand right? This is a Red Flame Stone, a normal stone. It isn't worth much and doesn't have much use. But nature is magical, everything counters one another. This Red Flame Stone counters Yin Demons."
"Our Martial Path Mountain's back mountain is filled with these stones, so many that it is a little scary."
"Actually, this Red Flame Stone is just a support, the key … Forget it, you won't understand even if I tell you, so let's not talk about it."
Zhang Tianshan actually knew how to keep him in suspense.
Lin Fan squinted, "If you don't say it, then I won't buy anything for you."
"No, if you don't buy it for me, then I won't do it." Zhang Tianshan had thoughts of dropping everything and going home.
Ke!
He actually knew how to threaten.
However, it was really useful.
"Okay, I will give you 50 silver, say it." Lin Fan didn't want Zhang Tianshan to drop everything on such a small amount of silver. He still had to do what he had to do.
Zhang Tianshan shook his head and said proudly, "50 silver is not enough, I calculated it for you. You spent over 100 in the market. As the Deputy Sect Leader, even if I lower the conditions, it will still be 100 silver. Without this number, I won't agree."
"You fellow …" Lin Fan pointed at Zhang Tianshan. What a useless fellow. He thought that it would cost a few thousand, so it was 100.
One's knowledge determined one's height.
It wasn't without reason that Martial Path Mountain went bankrupt because of him.
"Okay, I will give you 100 silver. Hurry up, don't waste time." Lin Fan said.
Zhang Tianshan smiled. He suddenly noticed that this kid was a good person.
He had wronged him in the past.
Once Zhang Tianshan was satisfied with the money, he would have more motivation to work and he would talk more.
"Actually, I am using the Red Flame Stone to connect the Yang Power that Jiang City has accumulated for hundreds of years. Yin Demons are most afraid of two types of power, one is lightning and the other is Yang Power. Now that I have drawn out the Yang Power, the Yin Demons won't dare to come. "Zhang Tianshan said.
"The city also has Yang Power?" Lin Fan asked.
Zhang Tianshan said, "Yes, as long as there is a sun, there will be Yang Power. Every day the sun shines high, who knows how much Jiang City has absorbed. We just lack a catalyst. As for the location of the layout, it is really important. Without decades of research, it is tough to understand."
He even started to be arrogant.
He had some ability.
I take back what I said before. My father's friends, even if they weren't strong, they had some specialties.
"How long can it last?" Lin Fan asked.
Zhang Tianshan said, "Forever. As long as the sun exists, the Yang Power will be replenished. Also, these stones can't be dug out. If they are, then they are useless."
It sounded so simple.
If one really wanted to do it, it would be really difficult.
Zhang Tianshan was a skilled person.
The location to bury the Red Flame Stone had to be chosen carefully and couldn't be casually buried.
