1066: Su Liang's Request

"Come with me," Li Changkong didn't explain further.

Compared to words, a physical display is more convincing.

Qiao Yi followed Li Changkong with a look of suspicion, arriving at a desolate area.

Standing still, Li Changkong paused, then said seriously, "Under your feet, there's a gold mine!"

"A gold mine?" Hearing this, Qiao Yi's expression froze, then he abruptly looked at the land beneath his feet.

Filled with surprise, a magic wand appeared in his hand.

"Boom~"

There was a dull thud from the ground, and the surface soil was blown away.

In the next moment, a patch of shimmering golden Ore appeared in front of Qiao Yi's eyes, scattered in an orderly fashion, its radiance not even obscured by the continuous rain!

When he saw all this, his eyes widened suddenly!

"It's really a gold mine!" Qiao Yi's voice was even a little strained.

It's not surprising that he was so excited.

The value of gold Ore is far beyond what iron Ore can compare to!

Compared to iron, which ordinary people often come into contact with, gold in this World is one of the important Materials that powerful Magicians can use!

Many magic potions that sell for sky-high prices require gold as one of their Materials!

And some powerful Knight equipment often includes gold!

Because compared to iron, gold that has been specially treated has a stronger enhancing effect on Holy Light!

Legend has it that gold can even be used to catch Dragons...

Because of these factors, the price of gold has always remained high!

Gold coins can even become a high-level currency unit, which shows that the gold mine underground is a truly huge fortune!

Of course... King Vog Country prohibits citizens from owning gold mines.

Once discovered, they must be confiscated by King Vog Country, or by the noble forces belonging to King Vog Country.

"Friend, is this our new big business?!" Qiao Yi's voice was very low at this time.

I have to say, Qiao Yi is indeed a person obsessed with money.

If an ordinary King Vog Country citizen saw these things, their first thought would be to report it to King Vog Country and have the people above confiscate it.

But Qiao Yi is different, his first thought is to turn these things into money!

"Do you have a sales channel?" Li Changkong looked at him and asked.

This is not iron Ore.

Even if they were King Vog Country citizens, it would be impossible to sell through normal channels, they must have connections.

"Of course I do! I am Bradley Qiao Yi! The Boss of the only spiritual lamp specialty store in Busen City!"

"Don't think I'm like some individual small vendors, taking these gold mines to ask people if they want to buy them, I have the ability to secretly transport these gold mines to Aiden Country! As long as they are transported to Aiden Country, there are people who will buy them!"

Qiao Yi patted his chest, the information in his words full of the display of his own ability.

"Selling King Vog Country's things to Aiden Country? I thought someone who could become the Boss of a spiritual lamp specialty store would at least love King Vog Country very much." Li Changkong understood Qiao Yi's ability and sighed with a slight surprise.

"Haha, you can't say that." Qiao Yi chuckled happily: "Although I took King Vog Country's gold mine to Aiden Country, I also brought the money I earned in Aiden Country back to King Vog Country!"

"Alright, let's talk about the division." Li Changkong brought up a new topic, which was also the most important topic for both parties in this matter.

"Li Chieftain, my esteemed friend, I think you also know the difficulties I face in selling the gold mine, so I think I should take the larger share!"

"You just need to provide me with the gold mine, and then just wait to collect the money."

Qiao Yi said first.

In response, Li Changkong shook his head slightly: "Although it seems like we just need to dig out the gold mine, don't forget, this gold mine is on our land, and once it is discovered, the first ones to be finished will definitely be us Li Village, so, just facing this huge risk, you can't take the larger share."

"Furthermore, these gold mines themselves come from our Li Village."

After these words were spoken, Qiao Yi's expression also showed some dejection: "Then let's split it fifty-fifty, that's very fair."

Hearing this, Li Changkong understood that compared to the original, the other party had indeed given up a lot.

However, the main reason was that after their Li Village showed its strength, they had the qualification to discuss this matter on equal terms with the other party.

"We have many choices for middlemen, but for suppliers, I think Qiao Yi, you only have us as a choice, right? Three-seven split, we take seven." Li Changkong said directly.

Naturally, Qiao Yi didn't give in to this.

If Li Village were to look for other middlemen, the risk would be much greater, Li Changkong was completely bluffing him.

A new round of negotiations began again...

All the way until the afternoon.

Dark clouds covered the evening glow.

Qiao Yi also finally finished this negotiation with Li Changkong.

In the end, the division was still set at a three-seven split.

Li Changkong seven, Qiao Yi three.

According to Qiao Yi's estimation, once the gold mine starts selling, Li Village will have a monthly income of over 20,000 gold coins!

To confirm the start of the transaction and the stability of the cooperation, Qiao Yi even took out a thousand gold coins in advance for Li Changkong.

Looking at the pile of gold coins on the table, Li Changkong then fumbled around on his body, and a money pouch was also thrown onto the table by him.

In that money pouch was all his assets.

A total of fifty gold coins.

Most of which was the money Qiao Yi gave him for the iron Ore two days ago.

One could only say that the previous Li Village was truly strapped for cash.

Looking at the more than a thousand gold coins on the table, he then looked up at the sky outside.

It was still early, only around three in the afternoon.

Thinking of this, Li Changkong put away all the money, then got up and led the warhorse given to him by the System out of the stable.

He mounted the horse and headed straight for Busen City!

With money, one naturally wants to spend, and Li Changkong already had a clear direction on how to spend it.

...

Busen City.

Renault Family.

Su Liang lay in the Renault Family's prison, battered and bruised.

His limbs had been broken, and he was barely maintaining his injuries from worsening with the healing techniques he could muster.

This was his limit.

"Why did it turn out this way? I clearly covered those guys with the potion, it's impossible to save Wyatt unless all the monsters are killed!"

"Li Changkong definitely doesn't have that kind of strength! Who is it? Who is secretly helping Li Changkong, helping Li Village?!"

Su Liang roared hysterically in his heart.

Feeling the pain in his body, the hatred in his eyes grew thicker.

"Clang~"

A clear sound of a door opening came from the long, deep prison tunnel.

Immediately after, Su Liang heard a series of footsteps slowly approaching the prison where he was located.

This made his emotions gradually subside, and he had a vague guess about the person who was coming.

After a moment, a Man wearing a thick robe and with a face full of disappointment appeared before Li Su Liang.

The moment he saw the other party, Su Liang's emotions immediately fluctuated: "Lord Raine, things are not what you think, I didn't do those things at all, Wyatt must have been misled by Li Changkong and those people!"

The person who appeared before him was none other than the leader of the Renault Family, and one of the top powerhouses in Busen City, Rhein Viscount.

"Su Liang, at this point, you're still trying to argue!"

Raine looked at the Man in the prison before him, feeling only coldness: "The Renault Family treated you as one of their own, but you killed those who helped you, and even deceived me, pushing the blame onto a Village!"

"Indeed, outsiders are a bunch of low and hateful guys! When you saved my Child at the beginning, I should have just given you some money to send you away, letting you enter the Renault Family was truly the biggest mistake I've made in this recent period!"

After saying this, Raine announced coldly and without any leniency, amidst Su Liang's stiff and twitching face: "Cherish tonight, before I leave for Western Main City tomorrow, I will publicly execute you, this guy who killed my Renault Family members!"

After saying this, Raine was about to turn and leave.

However, Su Liang's plea made him pause slightly.

"Lord Raine, regarding my actions, I know I was wrong, I was really wrong!"

"I also understand that simply admitting mistakes will not lead to forgiveness, and I don't think there's any way you would let me go."

"I have no complaints about how I am to be dealt with."

"However, before I die, I have one last small request, I hope you can let me wander around Busen City tonight, okay? I have always lived in the wilderness, just like you when you were young, and I have never seen the prosperity of a Big City."

"Seeing more things is my wish."

"Just consider it the last request I exchanged for saving your Child back then."

Su Liang was practically in tears.

And this also made Raine frown and stop.

After standing still and taking a deep breath, the Middle-aged Man said in a muffled voice: "I will have someone watch you, don't think about escaping, otherwise you won't even live until tomorrow morning!"

After saying that, Raine left quickly.

"Thank you, Lord!" Su Liang's grateful voice carried far.

And after saying this, his fists slowly clenched, and the look in his eyes was suddenly covered by a fierce intensity!
