C16 Cooperation
Ji Yunkong smiled as he kept the banknotes. Then, he followed behind Lei Wanlee and entered the building. Lei Wanlee had previously said that this five hundred thousand silver taels would be given to him. Although he wouldn't be able to put aside the bet in the end, a person like him wouldn't take back what he had just said.
Arriving at a secret room, the two of them sat down. Lei Wanlee then asked, "May I know this Young Hero's name?" this time, are you here for the Saussurea Medusa? " This was not hard to guess. No one would cause trouble in Lei Wanlee's casino unless they had a mental problem and wanted to provoke the life and death of an expert of the "Hundred Heroes" level. And within the White Horse City, the most important things were Ho Tulu and the Saussurea Medusa that were about to arrive. Therefore, Ji Yunkong's goal was as clear as day.
"I am Jiang Yun. I have come here specifically to make a deal with Manager Lei." Ji Yunkong slightly smiled. 'Jiang' and 'Ji' were also one of the eight great ancient surnames, so he deliberately chose this as his pseudonym.
"Oh? "Trade?" Lei Wanlee laughed, "I am a businessman. Businessmen pursue benefits to their greatest advantage. If your deal can't interest me, then don't mention it."
"Of course. I believe Boss Lei already knows that our target this time is the snow lotus." Pardon my offense, but Shopkeeper Lei wants to use the Saussurea Medusa's reviving medicinal properties to heal the hidden injuries in his body, right? " Ji Yunkong said. That was not a secret. Back then, Lei Wanlee was injured by Old Man Celestial Devil, and Old Man Celestial Devil's martial arts was known for being sinister and ruthless. The hidden strength was kept in his body, and even after so many years, it still had not been removed.
"Indeed." Wu Tie nodded his head, "My body is getting worse and worse. Once I fight with someone, the hidden injuries in my body will erupt and I can suppress them for a short period of time. But as time passes, I'm afraid the enemy will take advantage of me." Lei Wanlee said that he was not afraid of Ji Yunkong's evil intentions. After all, this was his territory. If Ji Yunkong really had evil intentions, he was confident that he could capture him within a 'short' period of time.
"That is why I say, Saussurea Medusa is something that I must obtain, unless you are willing to give up on them, then there is absolutely no possibility for us to cooperate. Of course, if you are willing to give up, I will also give you an absolutely suitable compensation." Lei Wanlee said.
Ji Yunkong laughed: "Manager Lei, you must be joking, I too have the heart of a Saussurea Medusa and will never give up! This time, I have come to persuade Manager Lei to give up. "
"Oh? This Seat would like to see how you persuaded this Seat. " Lei Wanlee was not in a hurry to 'send off' his guests. He knew that since Ji Yunkong still had so much confidence after knowing that he was determined to win the Saussurea Medusa, he must have something to rely on.
"Manager Lei, although you are severely injured, Saussurea Medusa is not something that you must obtain. Other than this kind of heavenly material or earthly treasure, there are other ways to treat serious injuries, right?"
"Indeed," Lei Wanlee nodded his head, "In addition to treasures of heaven and earth, if the descendants of the 'Ghost Doctor' and the Shennong clan were to make a move, they would be able to heal my injuries. However, I've visited the Ghost Witch before, and she rejected me. Furthermore, the Shennong have hidden themselves away, so how can I find them? "Could it be that you can contact the people of the Shennong clan?" Lei Wanlee didn't know that the Ghost Witch was dead. Since that kind of person had rejected him, he wouldn't change because of anything. Besides, he wasn't so thick-skinned as to "lower his head" and beg the same person time and time again for "Thunder Finger".
"I am able to get the 'Ghost Doctor' bloodline to take action." With just one sentence, Ji Yunkong had piqued Lei Wanlee's interest. Of course he knew that Ji Yunkong was not referring to the Ghost Witch, but rather the Ghost Witch's descendant. At the same time, in the "Ghost Doctor" line, there were at most two people: one master and one disciple. Lei Wanlee was not worried that his disciple's medical skills would be inferior to the Ghost Witch. If that was the case, the Ghost Witch would not admit him as her disciple.
Lei Wanlee knew that even if he managed to obtain the Saussurea Medusa, it would be a waste. Of course, this was enough to heal his injuries. In order to fully utilize the Snow Lotus's medicinal properties, the Saussurea Medusa would have to use twelve percent of its medicinal properties, which could only be achieved by combining other spirit medicines with a divine doctor with astounding medical skills. With regards to these, Lei Wanlee could be said to be an amateur. As such, when the Saussurea Medusa entered his mouth, it was like chewing on a peony. It was precisely because of this that Ji Yunkong had the greatest right to negotiate with him.
"I have to say, this deal of yours moved my heart." Lei Wanlee also knew that if he consumed the Saussurea Medusa alone, it would indeed be able to cure his injuries. However, if he was treated by the "Ghost Doctor", it was very likely that he would surpass his previous peak. After all, he had been accumulating a lot these years. If not for the fact that his internal injuries had yet to heal, he would most likely have advanced by now. But how can I be sure that you're not lying to me? Young Master Jiang, anyone can brag like that. "
"Naturally," Ji Yunkong laughed, "After I obtain the Saussurea Medusa, I can temporarily give it to you for protection. Afterwards, you and I will go find the Ghost Doctor together, and when your injuries are fully healed, we will give the snow lotus to me.
"Aren't you afraid that I'll sneak away with the snow lotus?" Lei Wanlee laughed.
Ji Yunkong shrugged and did not answer, but the expression on his face was one of indifference, which made Lei Wanlee a little interested. He really did not know what the other party was relying on. He felt a little bit more fearful.
Actually, Ji Yunkong didn't have much to rely on. He had only cleverly used a person's mentality. To put it bluntly, he was now just a paper tiger. If Lei Wanlee really did run away with the Saussurea Medusa, he would have no other choice. However, this usually did not happen. After all, he had already offered such generous conditions. It could be said that he and Lei Wanlee were in cahoots with each other. If they were in cahoots, why would the other party do something so uncertain?
"From the looks of it, if I do not agree to your request, won't I be too stingy?" Lei Wanlee laughed, "It's settled then. Young master Jiang, we have to thank you for your help in seizing the Saussurea Medusa this time."
"It should be me thanking Manager Lei." Ji Yunkong stood up and shook hands with Lei Wanlee.
After confirming the matter of cooperation, Ji Yunkong immediately asked: "Since Manager Lei is interested in the Saussurea Medusa, you must have asked for a lot of information. This little brat is alone, in this aspect, I still need to trouble you."
"It's about time," Lei Wanlee waved his hand, "I've been doing business here for quite some time, so I can be considered a local snakehead. This time, the appearance of the Saussurea Medusa attracted the attention of all around. In these few days, I have been secretly looking around and only saw 'Bai Xiong' and a lot of strong warriors. These included: 'Green Snake' Bai Xiaolian, ranked ninety-eighth; 'Butcher' Hu Erhu, ranked eighty-eighth; and 'Scarlet Tiger', ranked fifty-first. "These are all strong enemies. Moreover, these are only experts that I can see. I don't know how many more are hiding in the shadows like us, waiting to reap the rewards."
Ji Yunkong nodded. Of course, he knew about this. Every single one of the 'Baixiong' people were famous heroes of the world. It was not easy to find these people. " In that case, I'm afraid we'll be busy for the next few days. " Ji Yunkong smiled.
Within the White Horse City, inside the brothel.
Feng Huixue's complexion slightly changed, but he still drank the cups of wine. There was no helping it, no one respected him. Feng Huixue was not the type of person to refuse a beauty request.
Halfway through the alcohol, Feng Huixue suddenly said in confusion: "So you have finally attracted the main character?" Haha, with Ji Hao's eloquence, Lei Wanlee won't be able to escape, and I have to start moving as well. "Hahaha..." After he finished speaking, he fell onto the ground and fell asleep.
