C677: [Friend, what is a true friend?]
According to the gossips in the round head Bao Gu, Yue Yang had a thorough understanding of Black Wind City’s current situation.
First of all, Bai Song, his son was killed, and he had reached an agreement with the Master of Black Wind City, and had teamed up with him. At the same time, as the mediator of both sides, Special Envoy Lionheart King, General Long Xiang, also joined the investigation team as a third party. And then, the Lan Jiang sect’s Jue Hu. They had to refuse the Black Wind City Lord’s reconciliation and ask him to hand over the culprit or fight in battle as soon as possible. If it wasn’t for the arrival of Lionheart King, he probably would have been at war with Black Wind.
Unlike Bai Song, the battle between Jue Hu and the Black Wind was genuine.
Not only that, the strength of a peerless clan was extremely terrifying.
Fortunately, the location of the battle was fifty kilometers outside the city, otherwise the entire Black Wind City would have been razed to the ground.
Even though they were separated by fifty kilometers, the shock of the battle still came from far away, almost touching them. According to Bao Gu’s internal information, Jue Hu had managed to defeat Black Wind, General Jin Feng, and Bai Song’s them three Heaven Ranked Warriors by himself. This Lan Jiang Sect Leader was so powerful that it was hard to believe.
In addition, the second piece of news stunned Yue Yang.
During the battle between Black Wind and Jue Hu, a mysterious Thief appeared within the city and snuck into the City Lord’s Mansion.
Due to the Lord of Black Wind City being out, no one in the mansion noticed the intrusion of the Thief. The treasures inside were emptied and the Lord of Black Wind City suffered heavy losses.
The third major event was the Griffin elite team under the command of General Long Xiang. When they searched for traces of killing Young Master Song Tao, they seemed to have discovered something. However, on their way back to report to General Long Xiang, they unexpectedly met a Heaven Ranked expert and were completely annihilated. When this news came out, the entire city was once again shaken. It was said that even the Lionheart King was alarmed and sent his’ Dragon Armored Knight 'out to assist General Long Xiang in his investigation.
“Why did you sleep for three days? You missed such a good opportunity …” “However, it’s fine. I believe it’ll be even more exciting later on.”
There was no doubt about Yue Yang’s absence.
This was because the ‘hibernation’ that lasted three days wasn’t unique to Yue Yang.
Many races that had the ability to hibernate regularly had this kind of ability. Not to mention sleeping for three days, even if it was three months or even three years, it wouldn’t be difficult!
Yue Yang secretly analyzed all sorts of major events that occurred. It seemed that the sexy beauty had already made her move. The second and third major matter was most likely something that she or her companion had done. Was she secretly helping him? Or was it creating trouble, attracting the attention of the Lionheart King, pulling himself into the water? How should he escape from this place?
If the female giant Raging Flame was in Black Wind City, Yue Yang could just directly save her.
But she wasn’t there, she was elsewhere.
Female giant Raging Flame still had no news at the moment. He still needed to wait … …
As for the Lion Prince’s attentions, he could only deal with them. At worst, he would just return to Tong Tian Tower for a break. It was impossible for that sexy and enchanting beauty to use him like a gun!
“Let’s go take a look and see what good items are for auction!” Yue Yang’s calm performance made the round head Bao Gu greatly admire him.
“Brother is indeed worthy of being a traveler from the Western Heavenly Realm. His mentality is excellent. I dare to say that the person who is still interested in buying and selling in Black Wind City right now is probably you.” The round-headed valley indicated that Black Wind City had entered the war zone and was on alert. The black market would be closed for the next ten days, and only after the war ended would the killers be apprehended and the various factions’ disputes be terminated would the black market continue to open.
“What about the annual big shoot?” Yue Yang asked about the most important annual blockbuster.
“If we can finish it before then, it won’t affect the annual big time. If we can’t, the big time will probably be held in Shao Zi fortress or Full Moon City.” The round-headed valley also felt a little regretful. “The Shao Zi fortress and the Full Moon City, the merchants and residents there are all extremely xenophobic people. Travellers like us who are travelling abroad are the people they despise …” Get back to your country, you stinking strangers. “They’ll definitely say that. If we were in those two places for the annual big shots, we wouldn’t even be able to get a seat, much less get a good shot!”
“Could that happen?” Yue Yang was shocked.
“Heh, the Shao Zi fortress is the first fortress of the Emerald Territory, and Full Moon City is the richest city in the Emerald Territory. In the eyes of the residents there, we are nothing more than beggars.” If they were to go there, the city guards would have a hundred reasons to hunt down the outsiders who had entered the city, and the humiliating privileges of the outsiders could be found everywhere. In many places in Full Moon City, the rules stated that the outsiders and the retards were not allowed to leave the city. The round head Bao Gu does not want the annual bazaar to change to Shao Zi fortress or Full Moon City.
Black Wind City may not be a good place to live, but it was better than freedom.
There are more taxes, but there are still ways to live here.
In the rich and luxurious Full Moon City, a peddler like the round head Bao Gu couldn’t even afford to buy the smallest house. He couldn’t even find a job.
“…” Yue Yang listened to the round head Bao Gu’s introduction and was speechless.
Sure enough, regional discrimination exists everywhere.
The world he once lived in before rebirth was in such a state. Who would have thought that the Emerald Territory of the Heaven would also be in such a state?
Although the black market was not open, under the introduction of the round head Bao Gu, Yue Yang still bought a lot of the materials he wanted. For the first time, Yue Yang had a sense of recognition towards this garrulous man who had an ugly appearance and a nagging mouth. Living forced people, in the Heaven Realm, without strength and without capital, living was not easy. People like Yuan Tou Bao Gu only did things because of the reality of life. If there was a better life, who would want to live it like this?
Under the round head Bao Gu’s guidance, Yue Yang went to a large Chamber of Commerce named ‘Chidoo’ in Black Wind City and got to know the vice president there.
He spent an extra three hundred thousand, but bought the three-thousand-year-old Fire Dragon Fruit that Yue Yang had always desired.
After the deal was concluded, Yue Yang and the bribed vice president were very satisfied.
Oral agreements for continued cooperation have also been established.
“It’s all thanks to Brother Bao today. Otherwise, this deal wouldn’t have worked.” Yue Yang flattered Bao Gu and rewarded him with ten thousand gold. This amount of money stunned the round head Bao Gu. Of course, he had consciously obtained a reward, but never in his wildest dreams could he have imagined that it would be so much!
“Brother, is this a mistake?” Baogu rubbed his hands together with some uneasiness. He noticed that Yue Yang had transferred 10,000 gold coins to him instead of 1000 gold coins. Actually, the reward of one thousand gold was already the highest estimate in his heart. In the entire transaction process, he didn’t make much of a contribution. Furthermore, the vice president was insatiably greedy, and seeing how the other party was so eager to purchase him, he forcefully bribed them three hundred thousand…
Bao Gu felt very sorry for this’ Jun Wu Ye ‘from the Western Heaven realm. He felt that the’ Jun Wu Ye 'who had made a loss in the transaction might only be able to reward him with a hundred gold coins.
He had wanted to deny his highest estimate. A thousand gold was too much, how could there be so much? Impossible!
He had even mentally prepared himself for harvesting the 10 gold!
Even if this Jun Wu Yi was rich, he wouldn’t give him so much money, would he? He must have been wrong! He looked at this huge sum of money with some eagerness. If this was true, how great would it be? However, he had never heard of the reward of ten thousand gold. Most importantly, he did not contribute much.
Bao Gu hated himself very much. How could he do this? Jun Wu Ye trusted him so much, and treated him so kindly, but now he was waiting to see him bribed for three hundred thousand dollars.
The other party treated him like a friend, while he himself …
Yue Yang looked at the round face of Bao Gu and faintly smiled: “This is what you deserve, Brother Bao, in fact, this Hard-shelled Dragon Fruit is very important to me.” Besides, the information you’ve told me in the past few days is also of value. You guys have become friends from a complete lack of knowledge, and then recommended me to enter the business circle and purchase the items I’ve been requesting. This money is the reward that you deserve. “Brother Bao, this isn’t the end. This is the beginning. In the future, if you succeed in recommending me, I will obtain an ideal item that will be rewarded no less than this commission!”
“Because you treat me like a friend, and even more so, I can’t take it.” The round head Bao Gu held back his tears and was moved. He handed the card back to Yue Yang with great difficulty: “No, I won’t take this money.”
“Brother, I still need a lot of things. The Hard-shelled Dragon Fruit is only the beginning. If you don’t help me, who in Black Wind City can help me?” “Could it be that Bao Gu thinks that my friend isn’t generous enough?” As Yue Yang said this, the round head Bao Gu hurriedly waved his hand and shook his head: “No, no, no, Brother Jun, it’s a misunderstanding. You misunderstood me, and I definitely didn’t mean that!” I… Alright, I will accept your commission. However, in the future, I will do my best in all of your transactions … “You treat me like a friend, I, Bao Gu, cannot lose this person. I will definitely gather all the items you need for you …”
At the end of his speech, the voice choked a little.
Friend, in Black Wind City, who would think that a peddler like him is a friend? Who cared about his information? Who cared about his recommendation?
He knew nothing about the Southern Heaven Realm, nor did he have any sense of security against others. What he had told him before was nothing more than bragging, not even treating him as a true friend. All he wanted to do was take advantage of him, ask him to treat him to a meal, and show off his knowledge.
However, he had not expected that the other party would treat him so sincerely, treating him as a friend.
If this had not happened to him, he might have laughed at him for being an idiot.
How could he have any friends in the Heaven Realm?
However, when it happened to him, he couldn’t help but feel an indescribable feeling of gratitude …. To have a friend that valued him so highly, he must be a young human that didn’t even have the strength of an Earth Stage. That kind of feeling was really good! This was a hundred times better than knowing that there were countless people who kowtowed to the other party and the other party didn’t even look at him! A Heaven Stage powerhouse, if he kowtowed, that person would not spare him another glance. However, this weak human was treating him as a friend and believed his words without the slightest hesitation!
The card in his hand became heavy.
He gripped it tightly.
Now, he felt that this was not only money, but also a kind of wealth that had never been replaced by anything else. Friendship!
Previously, he absolutely did not believe that friendship, which he had always ridiculed, was no longer an existence that mocked in his heart, but a kind of moving, an indescribable feeling.
At dusk, Yue Yang was instructing the waiter to prepare dinner.
He was like a berserk lion, knocking everything that was in his way to the ground. He is the round head Bao Gu. He rushed in front of Yue Yang and roared in a sincere tone that had never been seen before: “Wu Ye, listen, in the future, don’t trust anyone. In this Black Wind City, in the Emerald Territory, no, in the entire Heaven Realm, you will be able to escape from this place.” You can’t trust people, and you can’t easily expose money, okay? If you have any teleportation crystals, or if you have any ways to leave, then leave this place as soon as possible … “Black Wind City is a place to eat. Don’t come back again in the future. If you treat me as a friend, you must remember to not casually trust strangers!”
“What happened?” Yue Yang had actually guessed it.
“It’s very simple.” The vice president floated over from the distance. He had a fake smile on his face as he said, “Before you die, I will explain it to you!”
