"Borrow money?" Xiahou Longcheng was a little hesitant. "Is it appropriate to borrow money to buy jewelry for Huangfu?"
"What's inappropriate about it?" Miao Yi glanced at the storage ring on his finger. "Don't tell me the things in your storage ring aren't even worth ten million Red Crystals? If you don't even have this much wealth, it might not be appropriate for you to marry Manager Huangfu. Don't tell me you're thinking of marrying Manager Huangfu and having her support you? "
The others were speechless. If Manager Huangfu knew that someone was using her marriage as a bargaining chip, what would she think?
Spiritual Master Yuling and the others did not know what to say. There was actually someone who instigated customers to borrow money to buy things. Everyone in the Vitality Sect's impression of Layman Niu was slowly changing. But then again, Layman Niu was doing it for the good of the Vitality Sect.
"Bullsh * t!" Xiahou Longcheng was furious. "Do I look like the kind of man who needs a woman to support him? The things in my storage ring are worth more than ten million Red Crystals, but they're all useful to me when I'm guarding this place. I can't possibly sell them, can I? I just don't have that much cash! "
Miao Yi sighed. "Then how much can you take out?"
Xiahou Longcheng pondered for a moment and estimated. "At most, I can take out five million Red Crystals in cash." He then turned to the two people behind him. "You two, lend me some. I'll pay you back when I have the money."
Miao Yi was overjoyed. It seemed like this person was really going to buy it.
Meanwhile, Xiahou Longcheng's two subordinates looked at each other in dismay. They looked like they were about to cry. It wouldn't be easy for a superior to borrow money from his subordinates!
"Commander, isn't it a little too much to spend ten million Red Crystals to buy a woman's jewelry?" One of them tried to persuade him, hoping that the commander would change his mind.
Another person also nodded and said, "Commander, the key point is that even if you spend so much money, you might not be able to get anything good out of Shopkeeper Huangfu. If you spend ten million, not to mention ten million, if you spend a hundred million, you can bring Shopkeeper Huangfu back to share a bed with you and get intimate with him, all of us brothers will not hesitate to help you raise the money even if we have to. Isn't it a little too reckless now? "
Miao Yi raised his eyebrows. If he spent ten million, would he really be able to get rid of Huangfu Jun? Y brought it back to sleep. 'I really don't dare to sell it to you at such a high price. The 20 million gift later is no joke.' I'm sure that you can't marry her, so I don't have to lose this money. It's a profitable business!
Seeing that these two were about to ruin things, Miao Yi was afraid that the cooked duck would fly away. He hurriedly said, "Commander Xia Hou, this shop does not force transactions. However, you have to think this through. If news of you spending 10 million Red Crystals to buy a piece of jewelry for Shopkeeper Huangfu gets out, it will definitely cause a sensation in the entire city! In the future, if others want to compete with you for Shopkeeper Huangfu, they will have to first consider the standards you have set. If they can't bring out this sincerity, they will probably be too embarrassed to approach Shopkeeper Huangfu. This is a good opportunity to eliminate your rivals in love, and when the time comes, Lord Commander will definitely be the most outstanding person! In the future, this will definitely become a beautiful story. "
As soon as he said that, Xiahou Longcheng's mind wandered and he actually grinned foolishly.
"What a sharp-tongued profiteer. Shut up! "One of the Lord Commander's subordinates shouted.
"Shut up!" Unexpectedly, Xiahou Longcheng turned around and scolded him, "What he said is not without reason!"
"..." The two subordinates' expressions twitched. It seemed that the Lord Commander was determined to fall into the trap!
Miao Yi ignored these two and instigated again, "Lord Commander, if you were Shopkeeper Huangfu and someone who likes you suddenly spent 10 million Red Crystals to buy a piece of jewelry for you, would you be happy? What would you think of it? "
Actually, Miao Yi didn't know what the other party would think. He didn't know much about love between men and women, so he could only draw a general circle and let the other party slowly think about it. Hinting at the other party to think positively was more effective than saying a hundred flattering words.
As expected. Xiahou Longcheng probably really went into a circle and let his imagination run wild. His eyes wandered, and he rubbed his chin as he chuckled. No one knew what he was thinking about. His smile was a little lascivious, and he turned to look at Miao Yi and nodded. "Listening to a wise man really is better than studying for ten years!"
Miao Yi pushed him away. "Hey! Shopkeeper Huangfu and I are good friends. I didn't say anything. Everything was Lord Commander's own idea. "
Xiahou Longcheng laughed and nodded. "I understand, I understand."
He turned around and reached out to his two subordinates. "Hurry up, take out all the money you have and lend it to me for a while."
'No way? You really did it! Are you stupid?! ' The two subordinates' faces were scrunched up like bitter gourds.
"Lord Commander, you don't need to borrow money. Let's talk!" Miao Yi pulled Xiahou Longcheng's arm to the side and transmitted his voice, "Didn't you say you have five million? Just take five million Red Crystals first."
Xiahou Longcheng's eyes lit up and transmitted his voice back, "The remaining five million is waived? Alright, I will remember this favor! "
'You are no different from a robber. Is your favor reliable?' Miao Yi muttered in his heart and sighed. "Waiving it doesn't sound good. How can spending five million be the same as spending ten million?"
"Then what do you mean?"
"I mean, Lord Commander, you can pay five million in cash and write an IOU for the remaining five million. You can pay me back when you have the money. What do you think?"
The group of people didn't know what the two of them were whispering to each other, but they saw Xiahou Longcheng beaming with joy. He took out a jade disk and quickly wrote something for Miao Yi to see.
After Miao Yi read it, he frowned and shook his head. No one knew what he said to Xiahou Longcheng, but he crushed the jade disk in his hand.
Xiahou Longcheng quickly wrote another one for Miao Yi. After Miao Yi read it, he nodded slightly and smiled, seemingly satisfied. He put away the jade disk, then suddenly cleared his throat and coughed, saying loudly, "Lord Commander, this humble store will never force you to buy or sell. You bought this willingly. Don't say that this humble store cheated you later."
"Cut the crap! I'll buy it! "Xiahou Longcheng patted his chest.
Miao Yi turned around and waved at Bao Lian. "Bao Lian, come and collect the money."
Xiahou Longcheng took out a storage ring and gave it to Bao Lian. The others didn't know how much he paid, but Bao Lian returned an empty storage ring.
Miao Yi personally took the Starry Sky Ornament and gave it to Xiahou Longcheng with both hands.
Xiahou Longcheng took it and looked at it. He frowned and said, "How can something like this be sold for such a high price? I really don't know what those women are thinking. "
Beside him, Bao Lian saw that he was looking down on women. She couldn't help but say, "Why do you buy this ornament? Why do women buy it?"
As the granddaughter of the Vitality Sect Master, she had a temper.
Miao Yi and Xiahou Longcheng were both taken aback. They looked at each other, but in the end, it was Xiahou Longcheng who burst into laughter. "Well said. Well said. Women buy jewelry because they like it. Men buy jewelry because they like it. In the end, it's all because they like it. Well said!"
Bao Lian glanced at Miao Yi. Seeing that he was smiling, she felt relieved. She regretted her words as soon as she said it. She was worried that she had said the wrong thing.
Xiahou Longcheng happily put the ornament away. He turned around and ordered his two subordinates to leave. When he reached the door, he stopped and transmitted his voice to Miao Yi, who was sending him off. "Don't forget what you promised."
Miao Yi replied with his voice transmission, "Don't worry, Commander. The news of you spending ten million Red Crystals to buy jewelry for Shopkeeper Huangfu will spread throughout the entire city within two days. If you can't do it, you can come find trouble with me and seal off my shop. But then again, my shop has helped you so much. Please forgive me if anything happens to me in the future! "
"Of course!" Xiahou Longcheng said, then swaggered away with his men.
The shop quickly returned to normal. When they returned upstairs, Master Yuling asked Bao Lian, "How much did you sell it for?"
"Five million Red Crystals," Bao Lian replied.
They immediately looked at Miao Yi. 'Wasn't it ten million Red Crystals?'
Miao Yi chuckled. "He doesn't have that much money. It's not appropriate to force him to borrow money to buy this. Let him write an IOU of five million. I'll find a chance to collect it in the future."
Master Yuling sighed. "It's fine if he doesn't want to collect it. It's a little too much to sell a piece of jewelry at such a high price."
Miao Yi chuckled, but didn't comment.
Master Yuling, on the other hand, was worried. "We might get into trouble if we don't handle this well. What if Commander Xiahou feels like he lost out? Will he come looking for trouble with the shop?"
Miao Yi smiled. "He's not a government official. He's a bandit. If he comes looking for trouble, you won't be able to hide. Our shop can't move, so we can only think of a way to deal with him. I sold it at such a high price because I was forced by this bastard. Don't worry, Sect Master. If we sell it at a low price, there might be trouble. If we sell it at a high price, there won't be any trouble at all. This matter will soon spread to the public. If Xiahou Longcheng isn't afraid of embarrassing himself, he can come looking for trouble. With his reputation spread, he'll have to swallow it even if he knocks his teeth out. He can't afford to lose face like this. We'll only be safe if everyone knows about this. "
The others pondered for a moment, then nodded as they understood what he meant.
Master Yuling, on the other hand, gave Miao Yi a strange look. After a few incidents, he realized that Miao Yi wasn't as simple as he thought. He was definitely someone who stood between good and evil …
They didn't have to wait for two days. One day later, the news of the Western District Commander spending ten million Red Crystals to buy a piece of jewelry for Heroes Hall's Shopkeeper Huangfu had spread throughout the entire Celestial Street.
The daughter of the Western District Commander Xiahou Longcheng was famous for befriending beauties. That beauty, Huangfu Jun? Y was famous too.
Of course, the Morality Goods Store became famous as well. The crowds of people who came to see the Morality Goods Store's most precious item filled the store to the brim.
The Morality Goods Store had no choice but to put up a notice to reject customers. It was Miao Yi's doing. Recently, there had been a lot of shoplifting in the store. In order to maintain order in the store, those who didn't buy anything would be temporarily rejected!
