Chapter 69 Adding Money

Chapter 69 Adding Money
In critical moments, if you want to avoid danger, you have to use unexpected tactics.

The cold wind blew away the heat mist, making Guan Xihui's mind clear, and he shouted:
"Wait, I'll pay more!
In the past, we gave Governor Tao a total of 20,000 taels of silver every year, which he then distributed to his subordinates.

How about I give you four, no, five thousand taels now?"

Hearing this, Zhang Gui's head with his bloody mouth suddenly turned away.

The stream of steam that shot out of its mouth, as thick as a wellhead, plowed a deep trench on the shore and rushed straight into the sea.

It drew another deep water mark and disappeared into the distant sky.

The accumulated Qi steam in his body broke through the threshold, and after it was all ejected at once, Zhang Gui felt that his body, mind and spirit suddenly became clear.

As happy as if the spirit is ascending to heaven.

A new divine cluster "Yi Qi Guan Tong" evolved in the body.

It actually brought the entire extraordinary level to an instant sublime level.

Although Zhang Gui had never had a similar experience before, he somehow realized that he had been promoted from the 'Ding' rank to the eighth-rank 'Ding Shang'.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the flesh on his arm that was bitten off under the ribs tightened, and the three main divine clusters in his body began to operate in a chain reaction.

'Hundreds of Grasses Live' bursts out with vigorous vitality and hair, providing 'great growth, blazing gold'.

The latter two gave birth to new arms, which were no longer semi-metallic but completely metal.

This is the 'indestructible golden body'!
In less than a quarter of an hour, two more powerful followers appeared.

The Qi flowed through the body, although it was not stimulated by the fingertips, but it evolved from the skills of the "Zongheng Finger Crossbow Master".

This proves that Zhang Gui's previous conjecture that "if one practices the Dao technique deeply enough, it is possible to give birth to a divine cluster" was completely correct.

In other words, as long as one has good enough talent for cultivation and works hard enough, even if one cannot become a ten-thousand-year-old god, one can at least become a first-class god or demon.

To realize the lofty ambition of "my destiny is in my own hands".

The indestructible golden body is the origin of the legend of Chi You, the ancient military lord, who had a bronze head and iron arms.

It is said that after Chiyou was defeated by Huangdi, he could not be killed even after a hundred beatings and was invulnerable to water and fire.

Finally, he used thirty-six real dragons to tie up his three heads, six arms, two feet, and giant penis, and finally dismembered him to death.

It can be seen how powerful this ability is.

At this point, in addition to the eight main god clusters, Zhang Gui's secondary god clusters have also increased to six.

They are, Strong Feet, Like Drinking, Six Arms and Three Heads, Sky-Breaking Leader, One Breath Connected, and Indestructible Golden Body.

'One Qi Connected' is the only critical kill move with 'pre-swing'.
With one move, he managed to intimidate a powerful enemy and get the benefit of 50,000 taels of silver.

“Brother Guan, I paid for the title of Imperial Examination, and I am a military scholar, so I have little education.

Do not lie to me.

A real man can turn a spit into a hole.

I will give you 50,000 taels of silver a year for your care now."

The crisis was resolved at the last moment, and Guan Xihui breathed a sigh of relief.

He looked Zhang Gui up and down as if he didn't know him, and said rather rudely:

“A wolf travels a thousand miles to eat meat, a dog walks a hundred steps to eat shit.

What's more, you are not a jackal, but a young tiger coming down the mountain.

If you use the dog's territory, I'll give it a kick as a favor.

But now that Zhihaizhai has become your stronghold, it is only right that you spend money to rent the land.

Hum, hum, hum.

Who would have thought that the most complete inheritor of the ancient Kuafu bloodline in the Zhang family of Pingyang in thousands of years was actually a kid who used to live under my nose.

The former Blackwood Town was truly a place where hidden dragons and crouching tigers were everywhere.

Commander Zhang, after we followed Boss Yan to rebel against the Zhang family in Pingyang, we founded the 'Daohai Gang' and the 'White Sail Alliance'.

The leader of the Daohai Gang is Boss Yan. Lao He and I are deputy leaders, one in charge of business and internal affairs, and the other in charge of fighting and looting.

It has nothing to do with you.

The White Sail Alliance is different; it is a business alliance where all members, regardless of status, support each other..."

Zhang Gui had experienced many such things in his previous life, and he felt elegant when he heard the strings.

Without waiting for Lao Guan to finish, he answered with a clear understanding: "It sounds nice, but in fact, it is just a loose gray alliance composed of black and white forces.

I understood it as soon as I heard it.

You are attracted by my potential and feel that if I survive in the future, I will definitely cause trouble.

You say they are big bandits, but Yuan Luanyang is so big, there are countless powerful forces.

What can an ordinary bandit do?

If you want to stand out, you can only take the "united front" route, making more friends and fewer enemies.

Since killing me is a bit difficult and not cost-effective, it’s better to make friends with me.

Anyway, fifty thousand taels of silver is not a small amount for a large-scale pirate and merchant like you, but it is definitely not much either.

That's all."

After hearing this, Guan Xihui felt that he had nothing to say, and opened his mouth and said:
"What a clever mind.

So what do you think?

"Of course it's a deal." Zhang Gui laughed, "Your biggest enemy is the Pingyang Zhang family.

Isn't that what I will be in the future?
The old patriarch Zhang Liuduo was quite tolerant and was willing to give Yan Gong the title of "Head of External Affairs" to calm the situation.

Zhang Qitai is now so capable that he cannot tolerate his younger brother and has to rush him to the outer sea.

What's more, I'm just a small fry.

To those superiors who are born with wealth and status, people like me who grew up eating steamed buns and stinky shrimp paste are wrong to have any ability and deserve to die!

And I won’t put my fate on the magnanimity of others.”

Although he knew rationally that Zhang Gui's words were somewhat insincere and were only meant to please him.

But Guan Xihui felt as if his inner itch was being tickled and he agreed.

But the guy who used to tickle other people's hearts like this was himself.

Looking at Zhang Gui's serious expression, Old Song suddenly sighed.

“When cats and dogs are old enough, they have figured out the ways of the world.

He is strong, understanding, and intelligent. He can be arrogant when he wants to be arrogant, and act stupid when he wants to be stupid.

But Commander Zhang, you spoke so sincerely, yet you still transformed into a three-meter-tall golden body. Don't you feel embarrassed? "

Zhang Gui laughed heartily without any embarrassment, "I believe that friendship needs time to be honed before it can become sincere and pure.

So it’s better not to embarrass you now, otherwise it would be too much of a test for your heart if you reveal your flaws.”

Guan Xihui's expression changed again when he heard this, as if he had finally truly admired Zhang Gui's character. He muttered to himself:
“A man lives by his face, a tree by its bark.

If you can see this clearly, that's really amazing.

Zhang Gui, ah Zhang Gui, it would be so great if you were my son."

Zhang Gui didn't take it seriously even though Old Song cursed him half-heartedly.

I thought to myself:

“This grandson Guan Xihui’s acting skills are exactly like Oscar from my previous life.

So we can't follow his wishes at all.

Just grasp the point, eat the sugar coating and spit out the bullet.

Don’t mind if one or two words are cheap.

Anyway, he is almost twenty years older than Eminem.

He is a good brother of Zhang Yan, who is of my grandfather's generation, so it can't be considered an insult.

In short, everything is about winning through stability.”

And when Guan Xihui really handed him the silver note of 50,000 taels.
