Chapter 86: This Shang Xiong Wants Me to Die One of them was slightly overweight, middle-aged, and wearing a robe and accessories that were "bejeweled". He also had a slight smile on his face, looking a bit cunning and treacherous...
As for the other person, Gu Heng had seen him before.
It was the street urchin who took money from Gu Heng's companions a few days ago and planned to cause trouble!
But now he was wearing a black tights and his eyes were even colder. He looked more like a qualified thug than a street thug.
"...Who are you two?"
Gu Heng's face darkened.
Why do I feel like something bad is going to happen?
The fat middle-aged man clasped his fists and said, "Shang Xiong, the president of Qingfeng Baoxing. This is my personal bodyguard, Qingyi, but I think you have already met him."
The president of Qingfeng Baoxing?
Gu Heng immediately became alert.
"...A few days ago, your personal guard came to my clinic. Were you planning to cause trouble?"
I see.
That day, this guy named Qing Yi, dressed like a thug, came to his clinic and said some very strange things. At that time, Gu Heng thought it was the work of his "colleagues" in the south of Yunling City.
Now the truth is out.
It is the work of Qingfeng Baoxing.
Gu Heng was a little nervous, because Qingfeng Baoxing had five assassins, but they were actually killed by his poison. It was obvious that Qingfeng Baoxing knew everything about this.
It seems that there were some spies who were not killed that night and went back to report the news.
"Hey, you can't say that. My guards came to the door, but they didn't smash any bottles or jars in the clinic, right?"
Shang Xiong narrowed his eyes, looked at Gu Heng, and explained with a smile, "I just want to see what's so special about this Gu's Medical Clinic."
Gu Heng's frown deepened.
"Then why are you here now?"
"I want to discuss business with the owner of the clinic, and I want to do it sincerely."
Shang Xiong kicked the two boxes at his feet. Only then did Gu Heng realize that the two boxes looked quite heavy, and... were they the kind of boxes specially used to store gold and silver?
Gu Heng raised his eyebrows quietly and stared at him: "You want to discuss business?"
"yes."
Shang Xiong looked sideways and heard Qing Yi whisper that the real owner of the clinic, the girl, was not here at the moment. The young man in front of him, on the surface, was the "owner of the clinic", but in fact he had no cultivation at all. He should be just a hired servant who only knew some ordinary medical skills.
Qin Yiyao just pushed this young man to the front to create an illusion.
But Shangxiong didn't care.As long as there is someone who can help him pass the message to Qin Yiyao, that would be enough.
"What do you want?"
Gu Heng crossed his arms and looked at him indifferently.
"What I want is simple.
Shang Xiong put his hands into his sleeves and said confidently: "I hope that the 'Golden Spirit Liquid' can be sold on the shelves of my Qingfeng Treasure Shop!"
"Of course, unlike the Golden Phoenix Treasure Company, we do business with absolute fairness and integrity!"
Fairness and integrity, right?
But why did Gu Heng feel that it was as if someone had been hit hard by a punch and was now rushing to the door, ready to make amends at all costs?
He heard about the hot sales of "Golden Spirit Liquid", and naturally also heard about the poor performance of "Green Spirit Liquid".
Today, Jinhuang Baoxing even requested more Golden Spirit Liquid, causing his apprentice to spend three hours and a whole morning refining the potion. Anyone could see that Jinhuang Baoxing was making a lot of money.
They made a lot of money, but what about Qingfeng Baohang?
It's a big loss.
The "Golden Spirit Liquid" of Gu's Medical Clinic completely crushed the Green Spirit Liquid, so Qingfeng Baoxing was naturally as anxious as an ant on fire and began to think about ways to break the impasse.
But the solution that Shang Xiong could come up with was to stab Jin Huang Baoxing in the back and then defect?
Kind of... stupid.
"President Shang, since you've come here, I'll just tell you straight."
Gu Heng's expression became meaningful.
"Golden Phoenix Treasures and I have a cooperative relationship, and the compensation they give is not small, so if you want to be an intruder now, please go back."
This Shang Xiong wanted to stab him in the back.
Gu Heng naturally refused to do it.
Not to mention how much benefit can be gained from such actions, but the Golden Phoenix Treasure Bank and the Green Wind Treasure Bank are both huge monsters, behemoths that can drown this small clinic with money.
What if he betrayed Jinhuang Baoxing and defected to Qingfeng Baoxing?
Could it be that Qingfeng Baoxing could give him better rewards and more noble treatment?
You know, this is a cooperation on the same level.
He absolutely did not believe that President Shang Xiong, who could not hide the sly smile on his face, was the kind of person who was willing to bow down and humble himself under Gu Heng.
Moreover, being a traitor can easily attract hatred.
Jumping back and forth won't end well.
Furthermore, Gu Heng liked Jin Huang Baoxing's attitude more. At least Feng Wuxin was good-looking and generous enough."Haha, is the reward really that high?"
Shang Xiong had expected this answer and chuckled, "One hundred thousand taels of gold per month, right?"
As expected, the Golden Phoenix Treasure Bank really only gives mortals gold and silver as rewards!
"Even you know about this. It seems like you have spies inside the Golden Phoenix Treasure Bank."
Gu Heng narrowed his eyes.
"Same here. My Qingfeng Baoxing also has the spy of President Feng. This is just some small action that everyone knows tacitly." Seaʀch* The nôᴠel Fire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
Shang Xiong didn't deny it, but there was a sinister gleam in his eyes.
If business secrets are stolen, you still have to tear your relationship apart and hunt down the person who stole them.
"Since you know this, then you mean that your price is better?"
"nature!"
Shang Xiong was extremely proud. Then, he waved his hand and Qing Yi opened the two boxes. Gu Heng looked and found that they were not filled with gold or silver.
It is a small stone with irregular shape and glowing patterns on the surface!
"Two hundred thousand spirit stones!"
Shang Xiong said with a smile.
Gu Heng was stunned.
"Never seen it, right?"
Shang Xiong saw Gu Heng's stunned expression and felt contempt for him. He thought that this guy from this poor place was just so ignorant. He continued with a smile, "I tell you the truth, the value of the Golden Spirit Liquid is far more than that gold! My price is to give you Spirit Stones!"
"oh."
But this time, Gu Heng's response was completely different from what Shang Xiong had expected. He looked like he was looking at a fool.
"President Shang, please take these two boxes of stones with you and go back home."
Gu Heng's second refusal was even more resolute than the first.
Of course he had heard of spirit stones and knew that this kind of "currency" circulated only among cultivators. However, he was just an ordinary mortal, what did he need these spirit stones for?
Moreover, this guy gave him 200,000 spirit stones in one breath!
Two hundred thousand!
Gu Heng had no idea how many spirit stones there were, but he knew one thing: this thing was like a guillotine to mortals!
Now that Gu Heng dares to accept these spirit stones, groups of cultivators may come to his house in droves tonight and rob him!
This Shang Xiong really has no good intentions!
