Chapter 1749 - Crossing the bridge in secret (2)

He was so scared that his intelligence was reduced to zero. Hence, he had never thought about whether the middle-aged man would agree to use this house in exchange for the three of them. He had also never thought about why Leng ruoxue would say that.

Even though she wanted to get rid of these guys, Leng ruoxue wanted to anger this middle-aged man even more. It would be best if she could anger him to the point of losing his mind. That way, she would be able to fish in troubled waters. More importantly, this was her plan to do the same thing in the open and secretly do it in the dark. She had just sent her Beastie to the bottom of the valley. What she needed to do now was to stall the middle-aged man and buy more time for her beasts.

“Uncle! Although the three of them are a little small in number, they’re just the added bonus to the house. You can consider it an additional gift from me. Look at the three of them, there are old and young, men and women. They can run errands for you and warm your bed. What a good deal! One for three, there will never be such a cheap deal in this world again, so let’s quickly make the deal!” Leng ruoxue explained all the benefits. When she said it, she felt like laughing in her heart. Furthermore, when she saw third elder Cao’s face that was even darker than ink, she felt extremely comfortable in her heart. It was a pity that Cheng Xian ‘er was still unconscious and could not hear her opinion. This made her feel a little regretful.

“According to what you said, I seem to have gained a huge advantage.” The middle-aged man laughed instead of getting angry. To be honest, he was amused by Leng ruoxue’s words. He had lived for so long and this woman in front of him was the one who deserved the most beating. At the same time, she was also the one who was the best at twisting the truth. However, he was not a fool and would be fooled by her words.

Leng ruoxue could hear the middle-aged man’s sarcasm and gave him a ‘it’s good that you know’ look without a care. Then, she looked at him with a smile full of anticipation, as if this deal was already set in stone.

The middle-aged man was helpless. It seemed like he had to give Leng ruoxue the title of the most shameless woman.

“Uncle! When is the deal?” Leng ruoxue blinked her beautiful eyes and acted cute with her sweet mouth as she asked.

“I didn’t say I wanted to trade!” The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and said angrily.

“Uncle! What the hell are you doing? If you don’t keep your word, you’ll be struck by lightning!” Leng ruoxue cursed.

“You …” The middle-aged man was so angry that he was stammering. Facing Leng ruoxue, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness because she did not take his words seriously at all. She was always talking to herself, making him feel like a hero who was of no use to her.

“Uncle! You’re the one who wants to make a deal, and you’re also the one who reneges. What do you want? You’re going to make me angry if you keep repeating this. ” Leng ruoxue warned.

“I’ve already said that there are too many people on your list. I can’t give them all to you. ” The middle-aged man took a few deep breaths and forced himself to calm down. He didn’t want to be fooled by the other party. Moreover, he didn’t have all the people on the list. He was still looking for some!

“Didn’t I give you an extra head? Why aren’t you satisfied with a 1 for 3 exchange?” Leng ruoxue was slightly angered. Her beautiful eyes were burning with flames of anger as she glared at the middle-aged man.

“Do you know how many people you want?” The middle-aged man clenched his fists tightly. He was trying to calm himself down and not be angered by this woman.

“I know!” Leng ruoxue nodded and used the same tone to ask,””Then do you know the value of my house?”

Of course he knew! The middle-aged man thought to himself. If he didn’t know, he wouldn’t be so conflicted, and he wouldn’t have wasted so much time talking to her.

“How about this! Let’s each take a step back, I’ll give you at most 500 slots, how about it?” After some thought, the middle-aged man suggested. This was his final decision after much consideration. Who asked him to want that house so much? if he were to snatch it by force, he had no absolute confidence at all. Moreover, he didn’t think that these people would submit to him and let him do whatever he wanted.

“A thousand! I want 1000 people!” Leng ruoxue started to bargain.

“Six hundred! I can’t go any further!” The middle-aged man loosened the quota of 100 people.

“Then 900! Six hundred is too little, it’s not enough to fill the gaps between my teeth. ” Leng ruoxue said in dissatisfaction.

“Eight hundred people! If you’re still not satisfied, then I can only cancel this deal. ” The middle-aged man threatened.

“Alright then! 800 it is!” Leng ruoxue said helplessly. She knew that this was the middle-aged man’s bottom line. However, there were 800 of them in the open. She could decide how many of them she wanted to take away in secret.

“Men! Bring 800 of them here according to the names on the list. ” After discussing the conditions, the middle-aged man immediately ordered his subordinates.

“Wait!” The moment Leng ruoxue heard this, she immediately called for a stop. She couldn’t allow the other party to follow the names on the list. After all, there were many punks there to make up the numbers. If the people the other party brought weren’t the ones she really wanted to save, wouldn’t she suffer a great loss?

“What are you doing now?” The middle-aged man said with a slight headache.

“The list of names is too wide. I request a new list.” Leng ruoxue requested.

“That’s good! Hurry up!” The middle-aged man urged. He was already losing his patience from being tormented by this hateful woman. According to his original plan, he just needed to gather 800 men and hand them over to Leng ruoxue. Who knew that this little girl was so scheming?

“Uncle! Calm down, it’s not like this house can run away!” Leng ruoxue smiled as she consoled him. Then, she wrote a new name list and passed it to the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man took the name list and looked at it again. The moment he looked at it, his head hurt even more! He knew that this woman would not be easy to fool. Most of the people on the list were the most powerful ones who had been tricked into entering the secret realm. Moreover, he had not caught a considerable number of them yet. How could he complete the deal? He was depressed.

“Uncle! Quickly hand these people over to me! After the deal is done, you can send us out of here. ” Leng ruoxue chuckled.

She kept urging him! But the middle-aged man’s face turned uglier and uglier. He still had to send them off! Their deal didn’t seem to include this, right? However, he couldn’t be bothered to argue with this little girl anymore, mainly because he didn’t think he could win her in an argument. Therefore, the only thing he wanted to do now was to send this hateful woman away as soon as possible. Otherwise, he couldn’t guarantee that he wouldn’t want to strangle her to death after a long time.

Unfortunately, his wish was good, but reality was cruel. Many of the people that Leng ruoxue wanted were not in his hands. Hence, even if he wanted to send this God of plague away as soon as possible, he had no way of doing so.

“Only a portion of the people you want are in my hands. As for the others, I will find them as soon as possible and bring them to you.” The middle-aged man said after some thought.
