Li Yu Ming said, "You can't just trust him either. What if he already knows that we have Big Night Bodhi in our shop? Go and show Little Gold's pill furnace to him, tell her it's from a Stellar Cast Iron. "
Little Venus Crystal Iron looked no different from Stellar Cast Iron s on the surface. An ordinary appraiser might have been mistaken, but ordinary people wouldn't have been able to tell the difference.
Gao Xiao Cao carefully carried out the exquisite little Venus pill furnace and carefully placed it on the table in front of An Zheng: "Sir, look at what this is? If it wasn't for the fact that young master was an important guest, he wouldn't have brought it out. An ordinary person can't even take a single look. This is truly a top quality item. This is a genuine star … "
Before he could finish his sentence, An Zheng had already coldly snorted and stood up: "You want to use Little Gold's crystal iron's pill furnace to coax me? Do you want to say that this is the Stellar Cast Iron's pill furnace? "
Gao Xiao grass was so scared that his hands trembled, and the little gold star pill furnace almost fell off. He hurriedly apologized: "No, no, how could I dare to lie to you. I just want to tell you that this is Little Venus' Crystal Iron Pill Furnace, a treasure second only to the Stellar Cast Iron's furnace …"
An Zheng said coldly: "A person like you can actually become a head manager? Little Venus's level was one hundred and eighty thousand miles away from the Stellar Cast Iron. Even the top quality Golden Star Crystal Iron Cauldron was far from being able to compare to the Stellar Cast Iron. The Great Goldstar Pill Furnace is still able to refine Peak Golden-Rank pills, while your Little Goldstar Pill Furnace can only refine peak Red Rank pills, and the success rate might not even reach thirty percent. "
Gao Xiao grass was so embarrassed that he didn't know what to say. Just as he was about to explain, Li Yu Ming walked in quickly and berated him: "You dog, you look down on human beings. How can you use this thing to entertain your esteemed guest?!" Get out! "
Gao Xiaoji knew that his boss was here to help him out, so he quickly bowed and left. When he went out, his back was drenched, and he thought to himself that he had finally seen what a big shot was. He looked to be only sixteen or seventeen years old, but his eyesight was truly incomparable. Even with his eye of discernment, it would take at least two to three days to distinguish the difference between Great Venus and Little Venus. Searching carefully for the difference, and he might not even be able to guarantee a 100% accuracy.
After Gao Xiaobing left, Li Yuming sat down and smiled, "I'm really sorry Young Master, the people below have offended you by not understanding the rules. However, Young Noble, you have good eyesight. Not just anyone can differentiate between Little Venus's crystal iron and the Stellar Cast Iron's furnace. "
An Zheng said indifferently: "That's because not many have seen the Stellar Cast Iron before."
Li Yu Ming replied, "Young Master is right. Of course, not many people have seen a treasure like this before." But what a coincidence … I saw one not too long ago, about the size of a finger, and it was trying to make my move. "
An Zheng laughed: "The things in your shop are mediocre, your lies are mediocre too. If the State of Yan of this insignificant land were to have a Stellar Cast Iron as big as a finger, this place would have exploded long ago. "
Li Yu Ming said: "Young Noble might not know, but that thing belongs to the State of Yan's empress dowager, so no one would dare to have any ideas. If Young Master is interested, is the store responsible for contacting the seller? "
An Zheng said: "If there really is a Stellar Cast Iron, I will give you a percentage, and you can draw as many as you want."
An Zheng casually waved his hand: "It's just money. If you want silver notes, you can immediately give them to Great Xiantong. If you want silver, I can empty this Fanggu's Bank of the World's silver for you. "
Chapter 166 - Incomplete Body
Qing Zhai couldn't be considered a top tier merchant guild in the entire Da Xi Empire, but he could do things that even the local merchant guilds didn't dare to do with Da Xi's background in the State of Yan. However, Qing Zhai's people also clearly knew that their arrogance and domineering attitude was limited to the Yan people. Towards a noble young master like An Zheng who came from Da Xi, even if they had ten thousand times the guts, they would still not dare to offend him.
It was because of this that Li Yu Ming did not directly bid on An Zheng after weighing the pros and cons, and instead wanted to directly introduce him to Li Changlu.
An Zheng sat in the luxurious private room and drank tea, while a few beautiful women danced and twisted their waists. Gao Xiaoji said that these girls were brought over from Da Xi as well. An Zheng was completely not interested in this.
But in less than an hour, the messenger from Embroidery Palace rushed back and told Li Yu Ming that Li Changlu was not willing to make a deal with Qing Zhai, causing Li Yu Ming to feel awkward.
An Zheng waved his hand, "I can understand. You are a Da Xi and I am also a Da Xi. Furthermore, those who trade are in the Da Xi business. Send someone to ask, where does he want to trade? As long as there are no problems with the investigation, I am willing to see him. "
Li Yu Ming was afraid that something unexpected would happen: "But it's such a valuable item, with your status …"
An Zheng said: "I don't believe that anyone would dare to touch me in this desolate place."
Li Yu Ming immediately sent people to arrange things, and after an hour, he returned with Qing Zhai's men. He looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old, and was quite handsome.
That young eunuch must have known that this seemingly extraordinary young man was from the Great Xixi Clan, so his attitude was exceptionally humble.
"Gongzi, my master's meaning is … Come to the King's Pleasure to talk about it. After all … After all, this matter is related to such a precious thing. For your safety, young master, it would be better to go to a place with the experts of the Embroidery Palace. "
An Zheng turned his head to Li Yu Ming and asked: "What kind of place is the Jun Yue Lou?"
Li Yu Ming whispered into An Zheng's ears: "It's a brothel, its environment is not bad."
An Zheng stood up, "This is not only the State of Yan's capital, even if it's a place filled with evil water, there is no place that my Da Xi people would not dare to go."
He stood up and walked out, and Zhong Jiuge's disguised bodyguards immediately followed him. Zhong Jiuge used that kind of disdainful and confident gaze to sweep everyone present. This kind of gaze made him look like a peerless expert.
An Zheng had also understood the location of every single one of Li Changlu's residences. Li Changlu was the person that An Zheng was the closest to when he was attacked. So no matter what, An Zheng would never give up. Li Changlu was the first, with many more following.
An Zheng knew that his enemies were all strong, and those that had yet to surface were all stronger. Therefore, An Zheng would not blindly return to the Da Xi to seek revenge. He would wait until he was confident enough to seek revenge before returning to the Da Xi.
However, he did not intend to let the people from the State of Yan live longer.
In all likelihood, Li Changlu had arranged for their meeting place to be here because he was worried that the people from the Tiantong Palace s would find out about the news.
After all, it was one of the best brothels in the Fanggu, the decorations and furnishings here were all very particular. These girls didn't look that seductive or enchanting, but their proper beauty made people's hearts beat even more. Which man in the martial arts world hadn't had the heart to push down a lady?
As An Zheng slowly walked up the stairs with Zhong Jiuge, those dignified looking women frequently walked to his side …
Faces. It had to be said that Zhong Jiuge's disguise was so powerful that it had reached an unimaginable degree. Previously, when An Zheng looked at himself in the copper mirror, he could not see any flaws on it.
With An Zheng's experience and insight, the two of them working together could be said to be flawless.
A beautiful woman who looked to be sixteen or seventeen years old carefully placed a cup of fragrant tea on the table in front of An Zheng, sneaking glances at his face from time to time. An Zheng was a little angry. Could it be that this was really a world where one looked at face?
Then he thought to himself, This really is a world for looking at one's face. The young girl seemed to have an aura of youth that could move one's heart. Her waist was so thin that it was not enough to grasp her, and her chest was bulging as if there were two lumps of cotton stuck in it. Wearing clothes at this time of the year was already thin, and the slight bulge caused one's heart to palpitate.
"Young master, please have some tea."
The young girl said with a slightly flushed face. When she leaned over, there would always be some beautiful scenery that would naturally appear, causing one to feel relaxed and happy.
An Zheng laughed and asked: Other than tea, what else can I use?
The girl was stunned for a moment before replying with a flushed face, "Everything here is what the young master can enjoy. What does the young master want to use … then you can use something. "
An Zheng raised his hand and grabbed the girl's palm: "Then, what about you?"
The girl tried to struggle but gave up and let An Zheng hold her hand. "I … With my ugly appearance, I'm afraid I am unable to enter the young master's eyes. If young master is willing, after a while, when the elder sisters come in, young master can pick any of them. "
An Zheng released her hands and said: "I see that they are most likely pretending to be from noble families, but you are different. You are like a small flower in the morning dew, fresh and light. The taste is neither strong nor light, it's really refreshing. "
The young girl was so embarrassed that she didn't know what to say. She stood there at a loss. Li Yu Ming who was sitting at the side did not doubt An Zheng anymore, because he understood the preferences of those noble young masters of the Da Xi Empire very well. A few years ago, the young masters of the Da Xi family loved mature women.
In recent years, the trend of mature women had overdone it. These young masters began to like pure girls. The more pure and pure she looked, the more she would fight for it. It didn't matter even if her appearance was a bit worse than normal.
If it was a few years before that, the girls they liked the most would be the sexy girls. When the diplomatic mission from the Western Regions entered Da Xi, a singing and dancing group from the Western Regions also came with the diplomatic mission. As a result, there was a wave of commotion in the western region. After a long period of time, the singing and dancing groups in the western region became very popular in the western region. On the other hand, the value of these Western Region women was so high that it would cause anyone who saw them to be speechless.
Just as An Zheng was playing rascal on the girl's hand, a cough came from outside.
Li Changlu brought two elderly men in gray robes and walked in slowly. When they saw An Zheng, they cupped their fists and greeted, "This must be Master Chen, right?"
An Zheng also didn't get up, and continued to tease the young girl while glancing at her: "I rather like you to be like this, with a bit of a different kind of pure and exotic charm compared to the Great Xixi woman. I have some important matters to discuss right now, how about you come back later? "
The girl was provoked to the point that she didn't know what to do. She could only nod her head, saluted Li Changlu, and then quickly left.
Li Changlu had seen the Da Xi Aristocrat Clan before, so he was not too unhappy with the arrogance of the Da Xi people. Back then, when that prince from the Great Xi Empire came, he had been so arrogant that even a servant had sent him off with a smile on his face. Moreover, this seemingly extraordinary youth was surnamed Chen.
"Eunuch Li?"
An Zheng raised his chin and asked.
Li Changlu sat down in front of An Zheng: "Young Noble does not need to be so courteous, we are here to play. If there is anything that you need my help with, Young Noble, please do not hesitate to ask."
An Zheng replied, "It's not much to you. People of the Da Xi world only rely on the words' people of the Da Xi world '. I'm not here to listen to your pleasantries, but to get down to business. If you really have a Stellar Cast Iron, how are you going to sell it? Do you want silver or something else in exchange? "
What Li Changlu is begging for is money, of course he wouldn't be willing to offend An Zheng, the financial backer, so no matter how arrogant and haughty An Zheng's attitude is, he still expressed politely and humbly: "Of course it's better if it's silver, we can't speak the truth … This is the empress dowager's, so the silver received will be used to repair the Embroidery Palace. "
An Zheng made an 'oh' sound: "If that's the case, then let me see the thing, if it's a Stellar Cast Iron, then you can offer a price."
Li Changlu said: "How could I dare to bring such a precious thing with me?"
An Zheng immediately stood up: "For such an uninteresting matter, next time, don't make any arrangements, I will first go back and rest. When you bring the Stellar Cast Iron to find me again, the item is real and the price is up to you. Even if you are the head eunuch of Embroidery Palace, I would still dare to kill you in front of the State of Yan's empress dowager. "
An Zheng stood up and walked out, which caught Li Changlu and the others off guard. Li Changlu immediately stood up and stopped An Zheng: "Young Master Chen, please wait. The thing is definitely real, and it's not that far away. If young master is truly sincere, can you let me see if you have enough silver notes? "
An Zheng didn't even glance at him. "I don't have time to waste here."
Zhong Jiuge took a step forward, but this person with a normal cultivation revealed an imposing manner, "Scram!"
Li Changlu's expression changed. The two old men in gray robes that he brought along looked at each other, wanting to say something, but didn't dare. At least in terms of aura, Zhong Jiuge had already suppressed those two. In addition to their identity as people of the Da Xi Empire, they did not dare to be rash.
"How about this."
Li Changlu suddenly asked: "If Master Chen trusts me, why not move to Embroidery Palace?"
An Zheng stopped and looked at Li Changlu: "Everyone says that the Swans are rough and bold, and they are actually fake... I am the one who buys the item. Although it is a treasure that can only be found by luck but not sought after, the people of Da Xi Empire have not fallen to the extent of being driven by everyone. You want to sell it? Bring something over to Qing Zhai and look for me. "
Li Changlu's face constantly changed, when An Zheng was almost at the end of the stairs, he suddenly took a few steps forward and stopped An Zheng: "Sir Chen … Actually, there's something I want to talk to you about in private. "
An Zheng frowned slightly: "If you don't move away, I'll make it so that you won't be able to walk anymore."
Li Changlu told the two elders to move away, and then spoke in a pleading tone: "Sir Chen, this matter concerns me, and has nothing to do with the palace. But I am in charge of the trade of the Stellar Cast Iron, all Her Majesty wants is silver, and Her Majesty does not know the price. If Sir Chen can do me a favor in private, the price will be up to you. "
An Zheng shook his head: "I don't mind the price.
Li Changlu gestured to invite him in, and An Zheng followed him back to the private room. After Li Changlu closed the door, he lowered his voice and asked, "I heard that Da Xi has the Medical Holy Hand that can regenerate limbs and flesh and bones. I wonder if that's true?"
An Zheng suddenly understood, and couldn't help but burst out laughing: "So it's this."
Chapter 167 - Losing Your Money
Li Changlu's face was somewhat pale: "This … It has nothing to do with my private desires. Physical condition of the parents, now I am an incomplete body. In the future, even if you die, you won't have the face to see your parents again. "
An Zheng asked, "As the Chief Eunuch of Embroidery Palace, if you really recover your body, aren't you afraid of the empress dowager punishing you?"
Li Changlu said: "Don't worry, as long as Young Noble has a way to help me recover my health, not only can I sell the Stellar Cast Iron to you at a low price, I still have other treasures in my possession. Young Noble can choose one of them as my thanks."
An Zheng nodded his head, "What you are talking about is not some sort of miraculous thing, why would you... Isn't it possible for you, the experts in the State of Yan's medical field, to do the same? "
Li Changlu said: "There is only one person I dared to use it for, but I do not dare to use it. If the empress dowager knew, it wouldn't matter, but if this person knew, then I'd definitely die. "
An Zheng replied, "I'm following a doctor. Even though I'm not very famous in the Da Xi Empire, this matter isn't too difficult for him. The difficulty lay in living body transplantation … The best option is to cut off one and connect it to you as a whole. However, the bloodline is not clear, and may not be compatible with each other. Thus, we still need to find something that has the same bloodline. "
Li Changlu obviously knew about this matter, he had been preparing for this matter for a long time.
"I have a candidate!"
Li Changlu saw hope, so he looked a little excited. "This person originally wanted to enter the palace to be a eunuch, but I coincidentally found out that his bloodline is almost the same as mine. So I left him here, waiting for today. As long as the doctor that Young Master brought over can help me, I am willing to give it my all to thank you. "
An Zheng sighed: "If I knew earlier, why would I have done what I did before?"
Li Changlu replied: "I can't."
An Zheng said: "Then tomorrow you will bring people to Qing Zhai, I will have someone check if there are any problems with the two of you. Other than that, you have to prepare three red rank Demonic Beast Cores s, one Hemolysis Pill and one Life Continuing Grass. "
