Dear Lingshi

Chapter 69 5

As more and more caravans come to Tieshan City today, all of them are stationed here at the parade ground.

At this time, the captains of the caravans coming from all over the world gathered together to discuss something.

When these people saw the heads of the four major families coming, they immediately stepped forward to greet them enthusiastically.

"Fellow family heads, why did you come to us on your own initiative this year? Didn't we take the initiative to come to you in previous years?" One of them asked knowingly.

"You come to my Tieshan City every year to purchase spiritual tea, and we are old acquaintances. You all have traveled a long way and come to my Tieshan City, so naturally we have to come and say hello." The head of the Jiang family said with a smile.

"Hahaha, thank you all for your kindness." The man said with a fake smile, but he was secretly complaining in his heart that in previous years, your four major families were all arrogant, how could you be so kind.

"I wonder what price you would like to pay for our spiritual tea this year?" The head of the Jiang family asked directly with a smile.

After this was said, the captains of the caravan did not rush to respond. After looking at each other, one of them stood up and asked the four family heads with a smile: "I wonder what price you want to sell to us this year?"

"Of course it's still the same price as in previous years." The patriarch of the Jiang family replied calmly.

"Hahaha!"

Hearing this, the people in the caravan laughed. The heads of the four major families were confused.

The Patriarch of the Bai Family asked everyone, "What are you laughing at?"

One of them smiled and said, "We already know your situation. In order to save you some losses, we decided to buy the spiritual tea from you at the price of 100 spiritual stones per pound."

"What?! One hundred spirit stones?" The four family heads were so angry that they laughed.

"Yes, one hundred low-grade spirit stones!" someone responded.

"You are probably dreaming!" After saying this, the head of the Jiang family turned around and left with the other three.

"Fellow family heads, not only do you have a large amount of expensive spiritual tea in your hands, but you also owe a lot of foreign debts, right?" someone else asked with a smile.

Hearing this, the four family heads froze at the same time, but still left resolutely.

Wang's house, attic.

"Bang!" An exquisite white jade teacup was thrown to the ground by the head of the Wang family.

"Who leaked this information!" the head of the Wang family asked angrily.

"Who else could it be? We still underestimated this kid named Lu!" the head of the Jiang family sighed.

"I'll send someone to kill him." The head of the Bai family stood up and said.

"Don't worry, these are all trivial matters. Now we must stay stable and quickly think of ways to reduce our losses." The head of the Jiang family looked at several people and asked.

Suddenly, several people sat on the armchairs again, with sad looks on their faces.

"Let's find the city lord and have him personally negotiate prices with those caravans. This way we can reduce our losses." The head of the Jiang family slowly expressed his idea.

"I'm afraid the city lord won't come forward for our sake." The head of the Wang family said worriedly.

"No, this time it's not just us who have been cheated, other large and small shops have also been cheated, the city lord will definitely come forward."

"Let's go! What are you waiting for?"

Not long after, they arrived at the City Lord's Mansion.

But he was told by the guards that the city lord was not there.

The patriarch of the Jiang family directly gave out ten middle-grade spirit stones. You should know that this middle-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for one hundred low-grade spirit stones.

After seeing the ten walnut-sized medium-grade spirit stones, the guard smiled and told them that the city lord had been invited to be a guest by the master of Duobao Pavilion early in the morning.

At this moment, these four people really felt that they had no way out.

After a discussion, they decided to go to Duobao Pavilion to meet the city lord immediately. After all, this was not the time to care about face.

At this time, in Huoluo Street, in the backyard of Duobao Pavilion.

City Lord Jin Rong and Moxi Sect Leader Li Wan and Lu Yunsheng sat opposite each other around a stone table.

The aroma of the second-level spiritual tea mixed with rich spiritual energy filled the air, and the three of them were chatting happily.

"You are really fast, kid. It's only been a few days and you have already broken through the foundation-building stage. Congratulations!" City Lord Jin Rong said with a smile.

"Thanks to the city lord, if it weren't for his good governance, we wouldn't have a stable environment to concentrate on practicing!"

Listening to Lu Yunsheng's flattery, Jin Rong smiled, picked up the teacup and took a sip.

"This year's new tea is good, full of spirit, but the price is also scary. I wonder if you have contributed to this?"

Jin Rong asked with a playful smile.

Lu Yunsheng smiled when he heard this and thought to himself, I wonder if it was guessed by the city lord or the young man behind him.

Lu Yunsheng naturally couldn't admit it directly, so he had to say to the two of them: "How can I be so capable, boy? Drink tea, the two of you drink tea."

"What's the good news that you called us here today?" Li Wan asked curiously.

"Of course it's a good thing, otherwise I wouldn't dare to disturb the two adults casually."

"Oh? Tell me, what good news is it?" Upon hearing this, Jin Rong also felt a little curious.

"That's right. I have another way to make money and I need your help."

"Just keep talking. As long as it's not against the law, we will naturally help you." Li Wan said.

"I wonder if you two gentlemen have ever heard of the floret business?" Lu Yunsheng asked.

In fact, this garland is the lottery on Earth. In order to make it sound better to the two people, they changed it to garland.

"Flower color? What is this?" Jin Rong asked.

"It's a way to get rewards by luck, but it's a little different from gambling. For example, there are thirty-five numbers, and everyone can choose seven numbers at will. Then we randomly draw seven numbers. If someone's chosen number is exactly the same as the seven numbers we drew, then he wins the prize. Of course, it costs spirit stones to choose the numbers, two low-grade spirit stones at a time. If you win the first prize, you can get five million low-grade spirit stones."

"What? Five million?"

Hearing this, Jin Rong and Li Wan asked at the same time.

"Yes, it is five million. It is more than five million. If someone buys two bets with this number, the prize money will be doubled..."

It took a full cup of tea for Lu Yunsheng to completely explain the rules to the two of them.

"Boy Lu, if someone really wins the prize, won't we lose a lot of money?" Li Wan said worriedly.

Jin Rong on the side also looked at Lu Yunsheng with the same expression.

"My lords, don't worry. I have made some calculations. The chance of winning the first prize is very small. How small is it? For example, if we have a million cultivators in Tieshan City, each of them needs to buy more than twenty times before one person wins the prize. And if everyone buys twenty times, how much have we earned? I don't need to tell you, by then, this mere reward of five million will be nothing to worry about." Lu Yunsheng did the math for the two of them.
