Chapter 106: Stunned!
"Seriously! Of course I'm serious!"
Xiao Wu said, "Look at the carriage behind me, it's filled with gold coins! And..."
"Boxes of Bronze Soul Bank cards, each worth a thousand gold coins."
"No, what's going on in our Holy Soul Village? Old Village Chief Jack, can you tell us?" Old Man Ma was stunned, as if he were dreaming.
When did even Old Village Chief Jack become a tycoon, buying up houses and land in the village at exorbitant prices?
Was he still dreaming and still lingering?
"Yes, Old Village Chief, tell us!"
A crowd gathered around him.
Everyone in the village attached great importance to their own interests.
For ordinary people, money is like a second parent.
Not only does it provide a lifetime of food and clothing, but most people, men and women, if they had money, could find a soul master with soul power, leaving behind a powerful offspring!
Wouldn't that be a breakthrough?
From the class of soulless waste to the class of soul master.
What a world!
The Spirit Halls spread across the continent, to put it bluntly, only protect Spirit Masters!
Old Jack sighed and said, "Well, you'll all know about this sooner or later, so I might as well tell you!"
"If you ask for too much, I might as well give it up at any time!"
Hearing Old Jack's opening words, the villagers were immediately shocked and even more confused.
Old Jack continued, "Do you know my adopted grandson Wang Chen? In fact, he is the heir of a mysterious tycoon. In order to repay my kindness in raising him, he wanted to buy a house in the city. I said that I still like to live in Shenghun Village, so he planned to build me a house here."
"As a result, a few days later, when the classmates gathered, they inexplicably turned the topic into building a tourist attraction. They said that the mansion in the deep mountains and old forests was too gloomy, so they simply renovated the entire environment."
"I don't know how this news was all over the place the next day! Someone must have deliberately raised the price to embarrass my grandson Wang Chen!"
"You naturally hope to sell it at a higher price, which is understandable. I don't blame you, but don't be too greedy. It's just a comfortable house for my old age. I can live anywhere. There is no need to spend this money!"
After hearing what Old Jack said, everyone started talking...
"So that's the case, old village chief, you really picked up a big treasure! We are so envious!"
"I said that Wang Chen was an extraordinary kid, don't you think?"
"Yes! I see him often sleeping under the tree, and even when he sleeps, he's so calm and elegant!"
"Pfft!"
Xiao Wu couldn't help but laugh at this. Wasn't that too much praise?
The villager who said this showed a hint of embarrassment, then pretended not to notice Xiao Wu and chuckled.
"Thanks to you, Village Chief, we can also enjoy the good life. But our family is struggling, and we've been struggling to make ends meet. If possible, we'd like to sell our house for money. Please understand!"
said an elderly man in tattered clothes and a hunched figure.
"I understand! 1100,000. Will you sell it? If not, we'll give up and the price won't be there anymore!" Xiao Wu continued.
"Well..." Seeing Xiao Wu so easygoing, the hunched old man hesitated. Maybe the price will go up in the future!
He had no ability to make money, so he had to make a killing with this opportunity.
Seeing the old man's hesitation, Xiao Wu didn't bother him. She said to the others, "What about you? Will you sell it?"
Everyone hesitated!
This pretty girl is so innocent and easy to talk to, and her value will likely increase in the future!
Everyone was already wondering: Is Old Jack lying? Is this just an excuse for us to sell our land and houses? In fact, the true value of our Holy Soul Village is still deeply hidden?
"Grandpa Jack, they don't want to, how about raising the price to fifteen hundred?" Xiao Wu asked Old Jack with a barely perceptible smile on her lips.
Old Jack was the same. The two of them had discussed how to buy it more cheaply. How could the money be manipulated by others when it was in their own hands?
Old Jack replied: "Forget it, it's too expensive! I don't plan to buy it for the time being. Let's go back to the city and make plans later!"
No one stopped him, but just kept trying to make connections.
Old Jack ignored him. When it comes to money, it's not something that can be sorted out by relationships.
Old Jack was determined to teach everyone a lesson!
After Old Jack returned to the city, the villagers did not panic at all, even if there was, it was not much.
Everyone stopped farming and ploughing the land, and gathered together to study. Even if you farm for a lifetime, you can't catch up with this one.
"Is what Old Jack said true? Is it really because his grandson, Wang Chen, wants to build a tourist resort and buy the land and houses?"
"I doubt it. Are the children of wealthy families really fools? What's the point of spending so much money?"
"Yes, businessmen are very prudent. Why would they invest in something that won't make money? I know them very well!" said a strong young man who often went to Notting City to sell vegetables.
"So, there must be something else valuable in our Holy Soul Village!"
"Well, let's all go and look for it together. Erdan, you go to the city and ask around," said an elder who still had some prestige.
"Okay! I think it's okay!" said another elder, motioning to his son: "Son, what do you think?"
"Okay, I'll do whatever you say!"
Zhang Hu, with his sturdy build and strong build, commanded considerable authority in the village. He was always the first to go hunting or doing heavy work, earning him respect.
As soon as he spoke, the villagers immediately followed suit.
A few hours later.
A large number of people searched the village, digging through the ground for nearly three thousand feet, exhausted, sweating profusely, their feet blistered, yet they couldn't find a single useful trace.
Just then, Tang Gu and his men arrived, continuing to stir up public sentiment.
"Mr. Gu, what do you want today? How much are you planning to pay for the house and land?"
Tang Gu said calmly: "Two thousand!"
"Hiss! Two thousand?!"
The villagers gasped.
"I told you Old Jack was a liar. He couldn't even raise the price to fifteen thousand this morning, saying he didn't want to buy and needed to think about it. Then in the afternoon, he raised it again, to two thousand!"
"Yeah, the old village chief has always been honest. How could he lie?"
"People, once they have money, their hearts turn evil!" the sentimental old man lamented.
"What did you say?" Tang Gu frowned and shouted.
"Uh, excuse me, I... I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about our old village chief, Jack!" The old man was horrified.
If a spirit master attacks civilians, especially those in a remote rural area like this, basically no one will care.
"No, I'm talking about your old village chief Jack who said this morning that he doesn't want to buy it anymore and needs to think about it carefully?" Tang Gu asked.
The old man was stunned and nodded, "Yes, this deceitful old thing! Sir, you have already offered two thousand, but he is not willing to pay fifteen hundred!"
Tang Gu: "..."
(ps: To be honest, I was wrong, really wrong! How can you write a casual long story in Douluo fan fiction? Most people who read Douluo fan fiction like to see a tight plot and high emotions. And those who like to read are supporting the book and feel that the number of words is not enough. Difficult! Too difficult! This platform tends to use follow-up reading data to calculate popularity, and use popularity to calculate royalties. I can't think of such a trick even if I add ten more brains! So what are the readers who read in the middle of the book counted? Readers support the author's book, but they support it in vain.)
