"Haha, didn't I tell you?"
"Didn't I say it from the beginning? My information is very valuable. When I provided the information, I also specifically said that this information is very valuable. I asked you whether you want it or not." "That's right," Zhao Hai said. "That's right.
"Besides, isn't this common sense? How can there be free information for you? Where can you get this information without paying a price? "
"The information I provided to you is very valuable. You won't be able to get any information from passersby, nor will you be able to hear anything. Do you really think that I'm giving you all this information for free? "
"If there's such a thing, why are there so many intelligence agencies? Do you not need Chaos Source Stones when you go to the intelligence agencies to purchase information? "
The waiter spoke eloquently, as if he was making a lot of sense.
The waiter had indeed said some things before, but who would think in this direction?
He had said that the information was valuable, but who would have thought that the waiter meant that he wanted to charge for it?
To put it bluntly, this was completely misleading and cheating. It was a trap that had been set up from the start.
In such a situation, even Qin Xiao, who had rich experience and self-awareness, fell for it. He did not react in time and did not expect such a thing to happen.
Qin Xiao had encountered many shady shops before, but none of them had been as shady as this one.
No matter how shady a shady shop was, there would be a limit to how much it would charge based on the customer's situation.
This shop was completely ruthless. Once they caught a batch of customers, they would scam them to death. They weren't afraid of making a big deal out of it and didn't care if they could afford it.
"Even if you go to the intelligence agencies to purchase information, it won't be so expensive, right?" Qin Xiao retorted sarcastically.
The waiter sneered and said, "That can't be helped. Our shop is that expensive. You get what you pay for. The information we provide is all prepared. Naturally, the price is higher. "
"Alright, my three lords, I think there's no need for you to say so much nonsense. Since you can enter Wind Cloud City, I believe you must have some money on you. "
"It's just a little over ten thousand Chaos Source Stones. I believe the three of you should be able to come up with it."
The waiter stretched out his hand towards Qin Xiao and the others, indicating for them to quickly take out the Chaos Source Rock. He looked as if he was going to eat them up.
Gong Li and Mo Nong were indeed intimidated. At this moment, they were truly at a loss.
The two of them looked at each other helplessly and bitterly.
In the end, Gong Li looked at Qin Xiao and said, "Qin Xiao, we have less than 7,000 Chaos Origin Stones in total. What do you think …?"
He wanted to ask Qin Xiao if he could gather enough money, but he was too embarrassed to say it out loud.
Qin Xiao didn't reply to Gong Li. Instead, he told the waiter coldly, "Get your master out here. We won't pay a single cent other than the 800 Chaos Source Stones for the tea."
"Just take it that we didn't ask clearly for the tea. We'll just take a loss this time."
"You didn't mention the information fee from the start. It's impossible for you to ask for a sky-high price after this."
"A person should have a bottom line. When doing business, there should be a bottom line. Since you want to cross this bottom line, I'm not afraid to play with you. "
What?
Gong Li and Mo Nong looked at Qin Xiao in shock. What was Qin Xiao trying to do?
Oh my god, was he trying to resist?
This was Wind Cloud City. To be able to open a teahouse in Wind Cloud City, one had to be a very capable person or force.
No matter which possibility it was, it wasn't someone a small rogue cultivator like them could afford to offend.
If he were to cause any trouble here, he would be seeking his own death.
Therefore, after seeing Qin Xiao's actions, Gong Li and Mo Nong felt a sense of fear. The two of them couldn't wait to grab Qin Xiao and ask Qin Xiao to stop talking and obediently hand over the Chaos Source Stones.
That was because they had to pay to avoid a disaster.
What else could they do now? They had already been bullied to the point of being humiliated. They could only swallow their anger.
Seeing that Qin Xiao actually dared to resist, the waiter smiled until his eyes narrowed, revealing a hint of playfulness.
He was just a small waiter, a lowly servant, a first-step Heavenly Venerable kid, but he could act like a dog relying on its master's power.
"You? Haha, you want to see my master too? To put it bluntly, why don't you take a piss and look at yourself? Are you qualified enough? "
"Don't blame me for being rude. You're the one who brought this upon yourself."
"Let me give you a piece of advice. A wise man submits to circumstances. Don't refuse a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit."
"Money is just a worldly possession. It's only yours when you're still alive. If you die, then everything on you will no longer be yours. "
"I believe that my lord should understand this simple logic, right?"
The waiter's words were full of threats.
As he spoke, the waiter also looked at Gong Li and Mo Nong, saying, "My lords, you should advise your friend not to cause the three of you to be unable to walk out of here safely. That wouldn't be good. The gains would not make up for the losses."
"Fighting for a moment of anger will only be a lesson learned in blood."
"I'll say the same thing again. This is Wind Cloud City. Not just anyone can behave atrociously here."
"Our teahouse has always been open for business and has always valued harmony. We only seek for money. If someone wants to cut off our source of income, then our teahouse will definitely not let anyone have an easy time. "
Such a strong sense of threat was indeed very useful to Gong Li and Mo Nong. The two of them were also very worried and frightened.
The two of them looked at Qin Xiao and shook their heads at Qin Xiao.
"Brother Qin Xiao, I think we should forget about it. An arm cannot win against a leg. Just bear with it for a while. "Gong Li advised.
Some things could be tolerated, but some things could not be tolerated. Now was the time to not tolerate it.
Was tolerating it useful?
It might be useful as long as your heart could bear it.
More than 10,000 Chaos Source Stones was indeed something that Qin Xiao could easily take out. It was not considered a lot.
However, being able to take it out did not mean that he had to take it out.
He knew that he would be at a huge disadvantage and would be ruthlessly exploited and bullied. To be honest, Qin Xiao was not willing to face it head-on.
Therefore, Qin Xiao naturally would not compromise today. It was a little too much.
After being forced to a certain extent, he naturally had to fight back with all his might.
Qin Xiao did not want to cause trouble, but he was not afraid of anything.
Qin Xiao believed that someone who could open such a shady teahouse would not have a powerful background. At most, it would be a fourth-step Heavenly Venerable. What did Qin Xiao have to fear?
Someone with a powerful background would definitely not do such a despicable thing.
Because of this, Qin Xiao was not afraid of offending someone.
If the waiter had only asked for 800 or even 1000 Chaos Source Stones, Qin Xiao would not have said anything and just take the loss.
However, asking for more than 10,000 Chaos Source Stones was too much. It was far beyond Qin Xiao's bottom line. Naturally, he could not tolerate it.
Besides that, Qin Xiao also had other considerations.
The waiter said that his master had a way to contact Baichuan Fu Su. Although Qin Xiao was skeptical, there was no harm in giving it a try. Perhaps it would really work.
Therefore, Qin Xiao wanted to use this opportunity to lure out the master that the waiter mentioned.
"You don't have to worry about this matter. It's not your problem now. It's between me and them. If you're worried, you can leave first. Leave this to me." Qin Xiao said to Gong Li and Gong Li.
The two of them could see that Qin Xiao was determined this time.
Once Qin Xiao decided on something, they knew that it would be difficult to change anything. It seemed that this time, they were really going to make a big fuss. However, there was no other way. They had no way to change anything.
What else could they do now?
It was impossible to persuade Qin Xiao.
Should they retreat?
The two of them could not do such a disloyal thing.
Should they not retreat? Then the flames of war might burn them. That was also an act of seeking death.
Therefore, the two of them were indeed caught in a dilemma.
After struggling for a long time, the two of them gritted their teeth and made a decision.
"Qin Xiao, we'll face it with you. At most, we'll die. There are things that men should do and things that they should not do. Although we haven't known each other for long, we're fellow Daoists who have fought together. Therefore, we can't leave you alone. "
"Since you insist, then let's fight side by side. If we're going to die, let's die together. "Gong Li gritted his teeth fiercely and said with a resolute face.
When he made this decision, he was indeed prepared to die.
Death required a lot of courage.
Qin Xiao looked at Gong Li and Gong Li. He smiled and did not say anything.
Death was impossible. It was impossible in this life. As long as he, Qin Xiao, was here, there would be absolutely no danger to his life. Qin Xiao was confident about this.
"Hmph, you don't know what you're talking about. It seems that the three of you are really courting death. You insist on making trouble in our teahouse. You don't know what's good for you. "The waiter snorted and said sarcastically.
At this moment, a powerful aura rapidly approached and soon appeared in front of everyone's line of sight.
It was a chubby middle-aged man. His face was sinister and emitted a bone-chilling coldness.
His round eyes were incomparably sharp. They were like knives and swords, ruthlessly stabbing people.
A powerful aura surged like a poisonous snake, forcefully attacking and suppressing Qin Xiao and the other two.
The person who came was obviously a third-step Heavenly Venerable Realm great immortal. Just the pressure of his aura alone made Gong Li and Mo Nong have the urge to kneel down.
This aura made it extremely difficult for them to raise their heads.
In front of a Third-step Empyrean Great Immortal, how could they have the slightest ability to resist? They were as weak as ants, waiting to be crushed and slaughtered.
However, this path was chosen by them. Even if they died, they could not regret it.
Qin Xiao's cold gaze fell on the person who came. Looking at his appearance, he should not be the master that the waiter mentioned. He should be the shopkeeper here.
"Shopkeeper Tong, these three people want to make trouble here. How dare they." The waiter respectfully bowed to the person who came and said.
The person who came was indeed the shopkeeper. He waved his hand at the waiter. His cold snake-like eyes swept over Qin Xiao and the other two and finally locked onto Qin Xiao.
Shopkeeper Tong stroked his mustache. The corner of his mouth curled up. He sneered and said, "Young people nowadays are getting more and more arrogant. They don't know the immensity of heaven and earth."
"After coming to Wind Cloud City, they still don't learn to be obedient. They still want to make trouble. How interesting."
"Is a life really so worthless sometimes? Can't even compare to an ant? "
