Chapter 3627 3625-One Less
"I knew you wouldn't agree, but it's okay, I'll make you agree." Meng jueguang motioned for Meng Tong to place the bag of spiritual Jade on the stone table."In three months 'time, you can at most earn six or seven pieces of spiritual Jade at that lousy mining spot in the seventh Kuangqu. However, if you agree to change mining areas, I can give you ten pieces right now. How about it?"
"Ten pieces of spiritual Jade? It's just to get me back to the tenth Kuangqu. Do you think it's worth it to pay such a high price, senior brother Meng?" Lin Yi laughed and pretended to be suspicious, "There's no free lunch in the world. Senior brother Meng, you guys didn't dig a hole for me to jump into, did you?"
"Tsk! Lin Yi-you can't overestimate yourself, spending so much money just to set up a trap for you, do you think you're worth it?" Meng jueguang sneered disdainfully and explained after a pause,"To tell you the truth, young master Xu found out that I transferred you to the seventh Kuangqu. He's very angry, so I can only find a way to get you back. I was forced to pay this price. Now, you have nothing to doubt, right?"
Hehe, he clearly wanted to use a few pieces of useless Jade to trick him back to the dead Kuangqu, but this guy's lie was quite well-made!
However, Lin Yi was very willing to cooperate with this little trick of his. Since the other party was rushing to give him the spiritual Jade, there was no reason to reject him.
Super nice people like Meng jueguang and Meng Tong were rare, and Lin Yi was really happy to meet them on the high class Island.
"Alright then. Since senior brother Meng has already put it this way, as your Junior Brother, it doesn't seem right for me to disagree. However, senior brother Meng, don't you think that ten pieces of spiritual Jade is a little too little?" Lin Yi pretended to be in a difficult position, keeping Meng jueguang in suspense.
"These ten pieces ... Are already a lot ..." Meng jueguang said, pretending to be deep in thought.
"F * ck, you're raising the price again!" Seeing Lin Yi take the bait as he wished, Meng Tong was secretly pleased. He didn't care about wasting a few pieces of jade, but he cooperated with Meng jueguang on the surface and pretended to be unhappy,"Ten pieces of spiritual Jade is already a lot. It's far more than what you're paid for mining, alright? don't push your luck! It can't be any higher, it's already an astronomical price!"
These two fellows were quite into their roles! Lin Yi laughed in his heart, but put on a straight face and pretended to be angry,"Senior brother Meng, you have to speak with a conscience! Two days ago, you asked me to change it out, and today, you want me to change it back. From the beginning to the end, you've been tormenting me, Junior Brother, and I didn't even say a word of complaint! Since senior brother Meng feels like he's at a disadvantage, then fine, I won't change Kuangqu, alright?"
Meng jueguang quickly stopped Lin Yi when he saw him leaving. "Don't worry, Lin Yi-I didn't say that it'd be at most ten spiritual jades, right? That was what Meng Tong had said! How about this, I'll give you two more spiritual jades. That's 12 spiritual jades!"
"Twelve pieces?" Lin Yi looked at Meng jueguang and raised his eyebrows."Senior brother Meng, two days ago, you gave me twenty-five pieces of spiritual Jade to exchange for Kuangqu number 10 to mine number 7. Now, you're kicking me back to mine number 10 from mine number 7. Don't you think this price is a little too cheap?"
"That's not the same! The previous twenty-five pieces of spiritual Jade were for your little spiritual Jade, not for you to change your Kuangqu!" Meng jueguang paused, as if he had made a great decision."But since it wasn't easy for you to be assigned to the tenth Kuangqu as a newbie, how about this, I'll take a step back, fifteen spiritual jades!"
" 30 yuan. Don't talk to me again if you're missing one Yuan." Lin Yi said firmly. If this was a normal trade, the other party would've flipped out already, but Lin Yi knew what Meng jueguang was thinking-he wouldn't be stingy with these dozen pieces of useless Jade just to get Lin Yi on the hook.
At this time, if he didn't seize the opportunity to extort a few more pieces, he would be exterminated by the heavens!
Sure enough, after a moment of unsightly expression, Meng jueguang finally gritted his teeth and agreed,"Okay, in order to calm young master Xu's anger, I'll admit this loss. Twenty-five pieces, that's the limit I can take! Sign Kuangqu contract for the mine. "
"Alright then!" Lin Yi smiled and nodded, signing the contract without hesitation. He counted the number of spirit Jade and left.
In fact, Lin Yi knew that they were useless Jade, but he knew when to stop. He took them as good Jade, and if he insisted on a high number, it would be like he didn't value the Jade as money.
Only after Lin Yi had walked far away did Meng jueguang's expression change from suppressing his anger on purpose. He laughed coldly,"This kid is quite good at bargaining. I guess he used to go to the market to buy vegetables in the secular world. He's very calculative. It's a pity that he's smart, but he doesn't have much wisdom! To be able to fall into the same trap twice in a row-he's a rare prodigy that only appears once in a thousand years, to be able to come to Sky Class Island with that level of intelligence!"
"Hehe, who asked him to meet our ninth older cousin. In my opinion, it wouldn't be strange for him to fall in a few more times! This kid is good at nothing except for his dog-shit luck. He actually managed to dig out good Jade in the tenth Kuangqu, what the hell! However, after this exchange, I'd like to see if he can dig out any good Jade!" Meng Tong said expectantly.
"That goes without saying. Just wait for a good show tomorrow." Meng jueguang's face was full of mockery. The experts had already given the death sentence to the 10th Kuangqu, and he was sure that no matter how lucky Lin Yi was, he wouldn't be able to get any good Jade from the 10th mine. He couldn't wait to see Lin Yi's depressed face.
The next day, as soon as the bell rang, Meng jueguang and Meng Tong excitedly gathered the new disciples of the GreenCloud Pavilion and sat around the hand-over point to watch the show.
The rookies looked at each other. They did not know much about what had happened in the past few days, but Meng Tong and Lee Zhengming had deliberately spread the news, so they more or less knew what had happened.
It was said that in order to help Lin Yi change his Kuangqu, the poor senior brother even asked the legendary third master of the welcome Pavilion, Lu bianren, to come out, but the result was that he was humiliated and scolded by young master Xu. In the end, he could only run away in panic! (To be continued.) "If you like this work, you're welcome to come to to give your recommendation and monthly vote. Your support is my greatest motivation.
