Chapter 77 Trading
Lin Pingzhi looked puzzled.
"This is about the life and death of my escort agency. Could it be that my family is about to face a disaster?"
"Today, the hero and I just met by chance. How come the hero happens to know the news about my Lin family?"
"The specific reason is none of your business. Just tell me whether you want to buy it or not." Jin Renfeng said, looking as if he was sitting on a throne with confidence.
The two escort leaders, Lin Pingzhi and Zheng Shi, looked at each other in bewilderment.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Pingzhi clasped his fists and said,
"The hero just helped me out, so I trust him. If he really has any information about my Lin family, I am willing to buy it."
"That's the best!" Jin Renfeng nodded and raised a finger, "Ten thousand taels of silver, no bargaining!"
Lin Pingzhi took a breath of cold air.
"This hero has such a high price, but I can't afford it! I don't have any money on me."
"If you can't pay, just write an IOU. It's still early now, just go back and get it." Jin Renfeng said impatiently.
Lin Pingzhi looked hesitant. Ten thousand taels of silver was not a small sum, even if he was the young leader of the Fuwei Escort Agency, he could not afford it.
If he wants it, he can only ask his father for help.
Shi Biaotou whispered in my ear,
"Young Escort Leader, we should be grateful to this hero for helping us before. But now he wants 10,000 taels of silver for such a random piece of information. It sounds like he is a charlatan."
"Why not just refuse it?"
Lin Pingzhi was also hesitant. After thinking for a moment, he shook his head.
"No! It's better to believe it than not to believe it. Since this hero is willing to let me write an IOU, the news must be urgent and of great importance. Otherwise, if I take the news and run away, he can't do anything to me."
After saying this, Lin Pingzhi asked Miss Wan'er beside him to bring him a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and wrote an IOU for 10,000 taels.
"Golden Hero, I bought that news."
Then he handed the IOU to the other party.
Jin Renfeng didn't even glance at it, casually put the IOU into his arms, and said,
"The deal is done. I will tell you the news now."
"Listen carefully. Not long ago, Yu Canghai from the Qingcheng Sect has set his sights on your Fuwei Escort Agency and is planning to attack you and seize your Lin family's inherited sword technique to ward off evil spirits."
"Now, he has made arrangements and assigned personnel to each of your branches. When the time comes, they will work together to destroy your Fuwei Escort Agency."
After a few words, Jin Renfeng explained the arrangements of the Qingcheng Sect in detail.
When Lin Pingzhi heard the news, he was horrified.
"How is this possible? Is the Qingcheng Sect going to attack our Lin family?"
"What do you think those two people are here for?" Jin Renfeng said calmly, "They are the advance guards of Qingcheng Sect. They stayed here to gather information."
"But their Qingcheng is also a famous sect. Why are they targeting the swordsmanship of my small escort agency?" Lin Pingzhi was puzzled.
"I don't know the inside story. You'd better go back and ask your father." Jin Renfeng said.
Although he knew that Lin Yuantu had defeated Qingcheng Changqingzi with a sword, he was too lazy to argue with Lin Pingzhi.
If he said too much, this ungrateful young master might even suspect that he had bad intentions and was trying to sow discord between the Qingcheng Sect and the Fuwei Escort Agency.
After hearing this, Lin Pingzhi and the two escort leaders immediately believed 80% of the news.
After all, no one would make up a lie that cannot be justified.
"Jin Yingxiong, do you know when the Qingcheng Sect will take action?" Biaotou Zheng had a bad look on his face. Having been in the martial world for a long time, he knew very well what a behemoth the Qingcheng Sect was.
"I don't know the exact time, but it will probably be one or two days." Jin Renfeng said.
"I advise you to go back and inform your chief escort as soon as possible."
"Either find strong reinforcements or escape as soon as possible. Come up with a set of rules. Otherwise, once the Qingcheng Sect takes action, you won't have any room to resist."
Lin Pingzhi and the other two were shocked. Knowing the situation was urgent, they immediately stood up and prepared to go back to inform the news. Just as they were about to leave, a voice floated from behind,
"Remember to send me the silver then."
. . . . . .
After the people from Fuwei Escort Agency left, there were no outsiders left in the tavern.
The green-clothed woman beside him also changed her previous dull and sluggish look. She came to Jin Renfeng with joy and said,
"Big Brother, why are you here?"
Jin Renfeng knocked Yue Lingshan on the head and said unhappily,
"Why am I here? How can I feel at ease if I ask you to come alone for such a big matter?"
Yue Lingshan stuck out her tongue.
"Isn't Third Brother still here?"
"Him?" Jin Renfeng glanced at Lao Denuo and said contemptuously, "I am even more worried when he is around."
As a time traveler, Jin Renfeng knew that he was an undercover agent of the Songshan Sect, but he had no evidence and could not find him out.
However, he also specifically reminded his master not to teach him the stone carving sword technique.
Yue Buqun also did as he was told.
Nowadays, the original stone carving has been destroyed by Jin Renfeng, so there is no need to worry about the stone carving sword technique being leaked.
Laudeno smiled bitterly and did not dare to refute.
Yue Lingshan had always known that Jin Renfeng looked down upon her third senior brother, so she did not find his reaction strange.
“But you came at the right time, senior brother. You came in just when the people from Qingcheng Sect came to bully me.” Yue Lingshan pulled Jin Renfeng’s arm.
"Can we say that we are in perfect sync with each other?"
"What the hell!" Jin Renfeng rolled his eyes. "I've been guarding outside this tavern for two days because I'm afraid you'll get into danger."
"If I hadn't been watching all the time, how could I have arrived by chance? Do you think I'm a god?"
Yue Lingshan said with a smile as beautiful as a flower.
"In my heart, the eldest brother is a god-like figure."
Jin Renfeng glanced at her and saw that Yue Lingshan was disguised as beautiful as a flower, and she was even acting like a coquettish person.
Such an attitude is really eye-catching.
The corner of his mouth twitched, but he did not remind the other party.
"But Senior Brother, it must be hard for you to stay outside for two days. Since you have arrived early, why don't you come to the store and meet us?" Yue Lingshan asked curiously.
"If I were to go with you, you would definitely ask me to disguise my identity, and I don't have the patience for that." Jin Renfeng waved his hand.
"You should display your name openly. It's not something you can't show to others. Take that scum from the Qingcheng Sect just now. If you had revealed your identity directly, would he have dared to attack you?"
“But Daddy told us not to reveal our identities, so I dressed myself like this.” Yue Lingshan said in embarrassment.
"Master is a little confused. As the saying goes, a general is not subject to military orders when he is away from the battlefield. Don't pay attention to him!" Jin Renfeng said casually.
"Big Brother, Dad told us not to get involved in this matter, but you just revealed everything about the Qingcheng Sect. Will this cause any problems?"
Yue Lingshan said worriedly.
"Of course there will be problems, but in this situation, it's best if there are problems."
