Dragon's Origin

Chapter 547: Slicing Meat with a Dull Knife (Part 2)

Is the secret to safely exiting the Shanyue area worth a large sum of money? Obviously, this is nonsense.

Of course, it's worth it! If they can truly grasp this secret, then the Xia family's experts will be able to easily enter the Shanyue area and then wreak havoc in the rear of the Shanyue Kingdom.

The current predicament of the Xia and Qiu families lies in the fact that the Shanyue Kingdom has flying mounts, so they can easily and casually massacre within their territory. However, as soon as their experts enter the Shanyue area, they will be discovered and then besieged, without exception.

No matter how powerful an expert is, can they possibly survive being besieged by several times their number of equally powerful opponents? Being discovered in advance leads to such an end.

Once they grasp this secret, then the confrontation between the Xia and Qiu families and the Shanyue Kingdom will no longer be a one-sided situation, but a stalemate between the two sides.

This stalemate is completely different from the current stalemate; it can be said to be a qualitative change. Before, I could only passively defend; you could hit me, but I couldn't hit you. Now, you can hit me, and I can hit you, and the next fight will be a true contest of heritage.

On this point, the Xia and Qiu families are completely confident that they can outmatch a chain of commercial firms in terms of heritage. How can hundreds of years of accumulation be so simple? If Wang Sheng were given five hundred years to accumulate, or even without five hundred years, if Wang Sheng were given fifty years of normal development time, Wang Sheng would definitely become a super powerhouse like the Eight Great Families.

Now the opportunity is placed in front of the Xia family's third elder. To buy or not to buy, is that even a question?

"Lord, do you have anything else you want to sell us? Can you take it out all at once?" The Third Elder Xia was almost crying, clutching his chest, and complaining to Wang Sheng: "I'm old, my heart isn't good, and I can't stand this slicing meat with a dull knife bit by bit. Please, Lord, give me a quick death!"

"Old Xia!" Wang Sheng almost suppressed a laugh as he stood up, walked to the Third Elder Xia, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "What are you saying? If you're not happy, I'll have Mei'er busy with her own affairs. I won't slice your meat anymore, okay?"

"No, no, no!" Being patted on the shoulder by Wang Sheng, a young man at least half his age, the Third Elder Xia didn't feel anything inappropriate at all. Wang Sheng was the Changsheng Gong(Changsheng Gong: Ever Victorious Duke), the same level as the Xia State Duke, so there was no question of insubordination. But Wang Sheng's words startled the Third Elder Xia, and he quickly denied it: "Lord, just kidding! Just kidding!"

Just kidding? Not buy? What was the point of the Third Elder Xia's performance for so long if he didn't buy? Was the dignified Third Elder of the Xia State Elder Council here to do stand-up comedy with Wang Sheng?

"Don't give me that look." Wang Sheng pointed at the Third Elder Xia's bitter smile and scolded with a smile: "You're making a big profit. Some people want to buy, but I won't give them the chance! Do you believe it?"

"Believe! Of course, I believe!" How could the Third Elder Xia not believe it?

Wang Sheng let A Qi reveal the news to the Xia family, wasn't it just to let the Xia family take the initiative to come to the door? The complete map of the core area of ​​the Thousand Absolute Land, Wang Sheng just squeaked in front of any family, which family would not rush to come and spend a lot of money to buy it?

"If A Qi hadn't said good things for you, do you think you would have such an opportunity?" Wang Sheng snorted coldly: "Don't think that I only have you as a buyer for the goods in my hand. Other families won't buy it! If you say such a thing of getting a bargain and acting like you've been wronged again, what we said before will be voided!"

"It was my slip of the tongue that offended the Lord! I'll slap myself, please calm your anger, Lord!" The Third Elder Xia was really able to yield and stretch. While apologizing, he slapped himself directly, a solid slap, and half of his face turned red: "Besides the ten million gold coins, the Xia family has another gift for Madam Qi."

The extra concert tickets, the complete map of the core of the Thousand Absolute Land, and the method to enter and exit the Shanyue area undetected, any one of them would probably cause all the major families to rush to snatch them up. It is a universally recognized fact that Wang Sheng never worries about not being able to sell them.

The Third Elder Xia also realized that A Qi probably played a big role in this. Otherwise, the opportunity to obtain the core map of the Thousand Absolute Land would never have fallen on them. Every family is willing to buy this opportunity from Wang Sheng with the greatest sincerity. Just now, he just wanted to use a little bit of a bitter trick, but Wang Sheng saw through it. After a burst of beatings, the Third Elder Xia had to apologize even more humbly, almost fawning.

But all this is worth it! Wang Sheng's credit in business is still well-known. As long as Wang Sheng nods, the Xia family will definitely be able to seize the opportunity. As for how long they can have the opportunity, it depends on the price the Xia family is willing to pay.

"Lord, my Great Elder will rush to the capital tomorrow." Seeing that Wang Sheng's face had returned to normal, the Third Elder Xia quickly reported in a respectful tone: "Please forgive me and Madam Mei'er. Tomorrow morning, the Great Elder and I will come to the Lord's mansion to discuss."

"Okay!" Wang Sheng nodded and suddenly smiled: "If Elder Xia feels the pain, after you have negotiated, you can reveal the news that there is a way to safely enter and exit the Shanyue area here to the Qiu family, and tell them your bottom price."

"Definitely, definitely!" The Third Elder Xia immediately understood what Wang Sheng meant. This was to let the Xia family help as a shill. What bottom price to tell the Qiu family? Isn't the bottom price what the Xia family says? Anyway, seeing the Qiu family even more unlucky than the Xia family is exactly what the Xia family wants. This kind of suffering cannot be shared by the Xia family alone. Everyone sharing is happiness!

"Let's make it clear first, the method is very simple, don't feel like you've lost out after knowing the method." Wang Sheng warned the Third Elder Xia again: "No matter how simple the method is, it's still a life-saving method. It's worth it to use some gold coins to buy the lives of your own children!"

"That's natural!" Having just been beaten by Wang Sheng once, how could the Third Elder Xia make the same mistake again? Even if the method is simple to the point of being outrageous, it is still a life-saving method. Just like the last time Wang Sheng sold the method to prevent snow blindness, how simple was it? But it was practical.

"By the way, Lord, there's another question." The Third Elder Xia suddenly thought of something and quickly asked while Wang Sheng was in a good mood: "In the core of the Thousand Absolute Land, the Lord has a large number of man-eating ants patrolling, so..."

"This is a standard." Wang Sheng replied without hesitation: "I didn't completely seal it off. If your cultivation is not enough to detect the man-eating ants in advance and can't avoid the man-eating ant patrols, then don't go in. Going in is also death. Believe me, the monsters inside are much more ferocious than the man-eating ants. If you're not qualified to go in, then don't go in to die. This is for your own good."

The Third Elder Xia pondered for a moment, nodded, and didn't say anything else. He got up to say goodbye, waiting to be slaughtered by Mei'er with the Great Elder tomorrow.
