"Brother Hong sure is well-informed. I just received the seven Black Demon Qilin Horses, and Brother Hong already knows about it?" Luo Polang sat down and massaged his temples.
"We were planning to give the seven Black Demon Qilin Horses to the emperor, but I'm afraid it won't be easy to sell them. As for the Angry Whale Warship, it's made of peach wood that has been struck by lightning for more than a hundred years. It's not inferior to your Da Qian's Iron-armored Flywheel Warship. Moreover, there were many magic arrays carved on the peach wood of this angry whale warship, which could suppress the evil spirits in the sea. In those small island countries in the ocean, this angry whale warship would be the most powerful weapon of the country! With this ship, I can recruit sailors, and even go further, find barren lands, establish my own power, and become a local tyrant. "
Luo Polang started talking again and again about the benefits of the Angry Whale Warship, as well as how the Black Devil Qilin could not be sold. Hong Yi frowned as he listened to him.
However, Hong Yi was very patient. He also began to haggle with Luo Polang, wasting even more time talking about how powerful the captives were, and how they were trained. He even mentioned that a normal Xiantian Realm expert would cost 200,000 taels of silver, but a peak Xiantian Realm expert with the fusion of spirit and body was several times more powerful than a normal Xiantian Realm expert! The overseas market was even more expensive, at least 400,000 to 500,000 taels of silver.
Hong Yi knew that patience was the most important thing when it came to business.
Especially when he had all the time in the world.
They talked until the sky turned dark, and both of them were starting to feel thirsty. Finally, they settled on a price.
33 slaves for Xiantian Realm experts, and 180 Water Ghost Camp Secret Guards. In exchange for two Angry Whale Warships, and a thousand Peach Wood Soul Vanquishing Arrows.
But in the end, the two of them had an argument on the Black Demon Qilin Horses.
Hong Yi wanted to add another five Black Demon Qilin Horses, but Luo Polang refused. In the end, they could only add two.
The price of a Black Demonic Qilin Horse was comparable to that of a Xiantian Realm expert. It was a huge fortune. Even those dukes and marquises in Jade Capital could only afford one Black Demonic Qilin Horse with a year's worth of production. Moreover, there was no market for it.
Of course, the debate on this issue was not clear.
In the end, the two of them felt that they could no longer fight and each took a step back. Hong Yi obtained two Black Demon Qilin horses and three hundred thousand taels of silver.
After discussing the price, Hong Yi and Luo Polang began discussing the matter of hiring the experts from the Peach God Sect.
Hong Yi said that he was ordered by the Da Qian Ministry of War to attack Yun Meng's fleet. Luo Polang shook his head vigorously. He was determined not to inform the Peach God Sect of the deal. No matter how high Hong Yi's offer was, he was adamant that it was not negotiable.
This time, Hong Yi was puzzled. Logically speaking, since he had made such a big deal, it was not impossible for him to invite a few elders of the Peach God Path who cultivated dao techniques.
"Brother Hong! I know you want to attack Yun Meng's fleet, but Yun Meng's fleet roams the seas. There are many experts there, and it's not easy to attack them. We, the Peach God Sect, do not want to be involved in this. "
Luo Polang smiled bitterly with a hint of fake apology.
"Every year at this time, Yun Meng's fleet will sail into the deep sea to transport goods, slaves, and capture silver sharks. Although he is strong, he is not invincible. Moreover, the Da Qian and the Divine Wind are one. If we can intercept and kill Yun Meng's fleet, we can weaken his position as the ruler of the seas. Moreover, the Pacification Navy has already made arrangements to cooperate with the Champion Marquis to attack Yun Meng's fleet. I promise you that as long as I capture slaves and valuables, you can have the first pick," Hong Yi said, blowing his conch.
"Times are different now. In the past, when the Cloud Mist Sect's fleet went out to sea, it wasn't as grand as this time. Since we've discovered the secret, there's no harm in telling you. This time, the Cloud Mist Sect's Black Devil Hall and the Destruction Hall Master are accompanying the Cloud Mist Sect's fleet. The Champion Marquis also offered a large sum of money to hire the Great Elder of the Peach God Path. However, the Great Elder rejected the offer. Don't mention this matter, Brother Hong, "Luo Polang said.
"The Black Devil Hall of the Xuantian Hall? The Destruction Hall? "Hong Yi was stunned.
Hong Yi knew about the Black Devil Hall of the Xuantian Hall. Murong Yan was an expert from the Black Devil Hall. Hong Yi had even studied the portrait of the Black Devil.
As for the Destruction Hall, Murong Yan had mentioned that it was the most powerful hall in the Xuantian Hall. The demon god they worshiped was the number one god under Dao Lord Xuantian, the Destruction God.
Xuantian Hall was one of the Six Great Holy Lands. It was as famous as the Daizen Temple. Hong Yi suspected that the two hall leaders were as powerful as the Four Heavenly Kings of the Daizen Temple in the past.
Hong Yi could imagine that the Destruction God of the Xuantian Hall was as powerful as the Destruction Ming Of Silla.
This information is very important. The Yun Meng's fleet is only trading in slaves and robbing aborigines. The small island nations are only hunting silver sharks. What are the Hall Leaders of the Xuantian Hall doing? Are they going after the Monogatari? No, chasing after the Monogatari army is useless.
Hong Yi did not show his doubts on his face. Instead, he changed the topic. "Oh? What's the price for the Champion Marquis to hire your Great Elder? "
"A Fist Scripture," Luo Polang said. Luo Polang said. Of course, he didn't clearly say what fist scripture it was, but Hong Yi could guess that it was probably a martial art manual on the same level as the Dragon-Elephant Seal or the Malla Divine Hammer.
This level of Fist Scripture, a Marrow Tempering secret manual, was a priceless treasure. There was no way to measure it. Even if it was sold, it could not be carried out. Hong Yi had three such scriptures in his hands, but he would not sell them in order to win the hearts of the people. It would be fine if he passed them on to his subordinates, but if he sold them, it would be too shocking. It might even attract the attention of others.
"Since the Peach God Sect doesn't want to get involved in the war between the two nations, then forget it. I'll keep the money and hire someone else. "
Hong Yi did not mind that the Peach God Sect was unwilling to come out.
"We'll work together again when we have slaves in the future," Luo Polang said. Seeing that the business was done, Luo Polang stood up and waved his hand. Two more boats approached. They were the shopkeepers in charge of accounting.
"Sign an agreement with Brother Hong and prepare the goods according to the terms. Deliver the goods here in three days," Luo Polang instructed and left.
"How can there be such a coincidence?"
Originally, Hong Yi should have felt a little more relaxed after completing a business deal. However, deep down, he kept feeling that something wasn't right. It was as if something was about to happen on the vast sea.
He thought back to the time when the Pacification Navy sent out their army to suppress the pirates. It had not even been a month since the Peacock King and the Monogatari started fighting, Yun Meng's army, and the Champion Marquis was planning to attack Yun Meng's fleet. There was also the news of the Peach God Sect.
All of this seemed to be connected somehow.
"Yinsha, what's happening on the sea? Did some kind of treasure appear? Or did an ancient Perfected Cultivator's island or cave abode? Is there a group of people heading out to the sea? I think that the Champion Marquis probably didn't just come to attack Bi Shihua. Otherwise, if he came to the Divine Wind Nation to make a deal and sold the Black Demon Qilin Horse, wouldn't he have told others some information? "
Hong Yi guessed for a moment, letting his imagination run wild.
"There's no news?" Chan Yinsha was taken aback. He shook his head. "I've explored a lot of places in the past few years. I've been to all kinds of islands and even trenches. I've found a lot of items left behind by Perfected Cultivators. But those so-called Perfected Cultivators might not have the Mystique I have now. Their items are just ordinary items."
"That's not bad. But since ancient times, humans have been eating raw meat and drinking blood. It's been thousands or even tens of thousands of years. There must have been people who achieved the Yang Spirit. The items they left behind must be much more powerful than the Sky Shaking Bow and the Infinite Arrow. For example, the Cosmos Sack that Da Qian Temple lost a long time ago, right? "Hong Yi said.
"That's true. However, I haven't heard any news about it for now. It's just that a few hundred years ago, the books and treasures left behind by the Dao of Creation caused a huge commotion. From the looks of it, the Creation Path manual had fallen into the hands of the Da Qian royal family. Since that's what you're guessing, it makes sense. I'll send people to investigate. Furthermore, in this vast sea, the fish listen to what people say. I'll activate the Myriad Sharks Grand Formation again and let those intelligent sharks see what's going on. Furthermore, the Rising Cloud Nation's businesses have their own intelligence agencies. They should be able to find out something, "said Chan Yinsha.
"That's it. Let's find out all the information first and act according to the circumstances. Three days later, when the silver from the Peach God Sect arrives, we'll set off. The Angry Whale Ship is a thousand-man ship and has a large capacity. With two of them, we can carry a lot of things. We won't need to replenish food or water for a month or two, let alone fear any storms."
Hong Yi gave the order.
At the same time, in the Imperial Palace of the Jade Capital.
In the Qian Emperor's study on the ground.
The Qian Emperor was over sixty years old. His body was a little old, but he was full of energy. He gave off a feeling that no one could figure him out.
At this moment, the Qian Emperor was reading an urgent memorial that had been sealed.
The Qian Emperor's most trusted official, Hong Yi's father, the Grand Preceptor Hong Xuanji, was given a seat and sat below. Hong Xuanji was still dressed in embroidered robes and wore a purple gold crown on his head. His expression was unmoving as he sat below the Qian Emperor, deep and steady, immeasurable, giving off the feeling that he was shielding the Emperor from any storm.
"Xuanji, the Champion Marquis has sent three urgent memorials. At first glance, We thought that Yun Meng's army had broken through the Green Kill Pass and attacked."
As he said this, the Qian Emperor passed the memorial to Hong Xuanji.
"The Champion Marquis has beheaded three thousand people this time and even tortured the old general of the Iron Stupa, Wutai Mang Er, to force out this important piece of information. It seems that the countless treasures left in the Daizen Temple, and even the three great scriptures of the past, present and future, have all been stored in the Qiankun Bag and hidden overseas. It seems that this matter is true. "Hong Xuanji sat up straight and said respectfully to the Qian Emperor.
"The Qiankun Bag, the Qiankun Bag, unifying the universe … This time, We ordered the Pacification Navy to exterminate the pirates of the Lost Cove and spent millions of rations, but we still haven't found the whereabouts of the Qiankun Bag." The Qian Emperor murmured, "But Yang Tuo's letter said that the leaders of the Lifeless and True Void cults have obtained the Lifeless Future Scripture?"
"If they had really obtained the Lifeless Future Scripture, they would have come to assassinate me and the Emperor in broad daylight. It is very likely that the leaders of the two evil cults only obtained some incomplete copies of the scripture. The real one should have been hidden somewhere."
Hong Xuanji said.
"Since that is so, We will transfer a portion of the Qiankun Dragon Guard to the Champion Marquis for the time being. Also, let Fang Xiandao's Xiao Anran and the righteous path's Zhang Boheng accompany the Champion Marquis to overseas to retrieve the Lifeless Future Scripture."
The Qian Emperor said.
