Chapter 120 Must be a master
^
The value of b being able to establish a relationship with such a person far exceeds these 100 million spirit stones.
Maybe in the future we can use this relationship to allow Duobao Pavilion to obtain more benefits and opportunities.
Thinking of this, shopkeeper Chen's eyes shone with shrewdness.
The owner behind Duobao Pavilion is Yaowang Valley. Their Yaowang Valley doesn’t have much else but a lot of medicinal materials.
The medicinal fields all over the mountains and plains contain a wide variety of rare medicinal materials, which can be said to be inexhaustible.
If you can cooperate with a high-level alchemy master, the benefits you will get in the future will be much more valuable than this mere 100 million spiritual stones.
You should know that high-level alchemy masters can turn ordinary medicinal materials into magical elixirs, whose value can often increase several times or even dozens of times.
Once a cooperative relationship is established with such a master, the medicinal materials in Yaowang Valley can be more fully utilized and more precious elixirs can be refined.
These elixirs can not only fetch sky-high prices in the market, but also enhance the reputation and status of Yaowang Valley in the alchemy world.
By then, all forces will rush to buy the elixir, and the influence of Yaowang Valley will be further expanded.
Whether it is the expansion of human resources or the accumulation of wealth, it will reach an unprecedented height.
Compared with this, these 100 million spiritual stones are simply a drop in the ocean.
Therefore, shopkeeper Chen took out the storage ring containing 100 million spiritual stones and solemnly ordered his subordinates:
"Go and inquire about Shen Lang's whereabouts and return this storage ring to him. This matter must be handled safely and there must be no mistakes."
Shopkeeper Chen's eyes were firm and his tone was serious, making people dare not slack off at all.
The boy was very puzzled, with confusion written all over his face and a little pain in his body.
"Shopkeeper, aren't we losing money on this business? This is a full 100 million spiritual stones. If we just return it like this, won't all the hard work of our Duobao Pavilion during this period be in vain?"
The little guy's eyes widened and he stared at the storage ring, full of reluctance.
"What's the loss? Why don't you quickly pick up that storage ring on the ground!" Shopkeeper Chen raised his voice and shouted loudly, with an angry look on his face.
"There are 30 million spiritual stones in here! When we do business in Duobao Pavilion, we should be honest with others! We will take what we should get, and we won't take a cent of what we shouldn't get."
"You must have a bottom line as a person, and you must have principles when doing business! Don't ruin the reputation Duobao Pavilion has accumulated over the years just because of temporary greed."
Shopkeeper Chen was pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back, his expression serious and solemn.
"If that bastard boy from the Zhou family hadn't caused trouble here today, it wouldn't have been so troublesome. A good business was turned into chaos by him."
"Hmph, the Zhou family relies on their power and is usually domineering, and this time it is even more excessive. But we at Duobao Pavilion cannot follow them and act recklessly. We must stick to our own rules and moral principles."
Shopkeeper Chen frowned and said angrily.
And Zhou Ming, the bastard boy that Shopkeeper Chen calls him, is now standing in front of Shen Lang with an arrogant look, as if he is the master of this world.
Zhou Ming put his hands on his hips, held his head high, and looked down at Shen Lang with a condescending look, the expression on his face was full of arrogance and disdain.
"Take out your things, kneel down and kowtow three times, and I can spare your life, otherwise you will die today!" Zhou Ming said viciously.
"Do you think you can escape from my grasp? In this area, I, Zhou Ming, have always said that no one has ever dared to disobey me. If you dare to steal something from me today, you are seeking your own death!"
Zhou Ming gritted his teeth, and every word seemed to carry deep malice and threat.
Shen Lang raised the corners of his mouth indifferently, with a touch of disdain and ridicule. He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked around like a sharp sword.
This is the famous Forest of Ten Thousand Tombs outside the city. It is surrounded by a gloomy mist and is deserted. Even the air is filled with a smell of decay and death.
Those crooked tombstones stand in the wind, as if they are silent witnesses.
The ground is overgrown with weeds, and weird noises come from the darkness from time to time, which makes people's hair stand on end. It is indeed a good place to kill people, steal goods, and steal treasures.
Anyone who is familiar with Shen Lang will know that this is not the only way for him to return to his residence.
He could have chosen the smooth and safe road and returned to his residence comfortably.
But Shen Lang took a detour and turned here specifically.
His steps were firm and steady, without any hesitation or fear.
It's because he knows that this boy Zhou Ming will definitely not give up.
Shen Lang had already made a plan in his mind. Instead of entangled with Zhou Ming in a crowded place, it would be better to solve this problem completely in this uninhabited land.
He tightened the sword in his hand, and a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, as if he was ready for a fierce battle.
"Really? Then I'm still a little scared..." Shen Lang dragged out his voice, with a bit of cynicism and disdain in his tone.
The voice was light and airy, but it seemed to carry invisible pressure.
As the words fell, Shen Lang's figure was like lightning, and he attacked first.
The long sword in his hand was instantly unsheathed, and with a flash of cold light, it stabbed straight towards Zhou Ming.
The two masters brought by the other party were both in the stage of becoming gods, and their realms were still higher than Shen Lang's.
They exuded powerful spiritual power fluctuations all over their bodies, and their momentum was overwhelming.
With one against two, Shen Lang has no advantage, so he must seize the opportunity.
What you want is to be surprised!
I know that if I hesitate even a little bit, I will fall into passivity.
Shen Lang's movements were as fast as the wind, not giving the opponent any time to react.
His body was agile, his moves were fierce, and every strike was determined to kill.
The opponent was caught off guard. Under Shen Lang's swift attack, they were in a panic and defended for several consecutive moves.
The hasty response looked embarrassing.
However, the two-on-one situation always had an absolute advantage. After the two came to their senses, they immediately adjusted their tactics and launched a counterattack.
They cooperated tacitly, one of them attacked and the other assisted, and the offensive was as turbulent as the tide.
Shen Lang had a harder time dealing with it.
Zhou Kai stood aside with his chin raised, a smug smile on his face, and said confidently:
"Shen Lang, don't struggle. Look at how miserable you are now. Instead of being beaten like a dead dog and begging me to spare you with tears, it's better to be smart and hand over the things early to save some dignity and respect for yourself."
"As long as you are obedient, this young master may be merciful and let you live."
Zhou Kai's voice was full of arrogance and pride, and every word seemed to be mercilessly mocking Shen Lang.
He was already imagining Shen Lang kneeling at his feet and wagging his tail to beg for mercy.
In his mind, Shen Lang's face was full of tears, his voice was trembling, and he kept kowtowing and begging for mercy, while he was high above, enjoying the pleasure of controlling everything.
