Qingyu Lake.

"kohlrabi fructus, we've already gotten our hands on the money. There's no need to come all the way here, right?" A lackey carrying a cloth bag asked.

"I think we should go back to the city and find a cash machine to check the goods," said another. "If there's any counterfeit money in there, we can get more money from the old man."

kohlrabi fructus was crouching by the lake, smoking. His subordinates were talking back to each other in his ears, and they were all careless. They all wanted to return as soon as possible, not staying in this beautiful yet desolate place.

"Do you know an egg?" kohlrabi fructus impatiently extinguished the cigarette butt on the ground, "I was just thinking about the little money in front of me." The lackeys' eyes were really too short-sighted.

"kohlrabi fructus, what do you mean?" A lackey tactfully asked.

"I called my father yesterday." kohlrabi fructus's father was of course Ding Ling's right-hand man, the Taoist Qu.

"He said …" kohlrabi fructus's expression was mysterious.

"What did your dad say?" The lackeys' interest was piqued.

"kohlrabi fructus said softly, as if someone was overhearing him in the wilderness." My dad said that Mermaid and Ghost are both real!

"Are you for real?" The little brothers exclaimed, if it was someone else saying this, they would definitely laugh at him, but kohlrabi fructus's source of information was his father, Taoist Qu, and everyone was clear about his abilities, that he was a genuine expert.

Actually, kohlrabi fructus's attitude towards his father was similar to that of his brothers. Even kohlrabi fructus did not know his father much better than others. When he was still young and insensible, his father had already gone to the Heaven Eye Mountain to study. By the time he had finished learning, kohlrabi fructus had already become a rogue on the streets. But he did not hate his father. On the contrary, his father's return had brought him countless benefits, and he was happy to rely on his father's power. From a hooligan to the head of the hooligans, even the officials of dragoncloud would nod and smile at him. kohlrabi fructus had never been treated like this in his 20 years of life.

Perhaps this was the feeling of "respect".

"Do you know how much a piece of mermaid's scale can be sold for in the market?" The kohlrabi fructus asked again.

"Is there anyone selling fish scales in the market?" Compared to the price, the lackeys were even more surprised by the fact that such a thing could actually circulate in the market.

"You don't know!" In fact, kohlrabi fructus only found out after he finished his phone conversation with his father, so he could use this opportunity to brag to his brothers.

The lackeys surrounding him were all fully concentrated, and their expressions were full of expectation.

This was what the kohlrabi fructus wanted, the feeling of being watched. As the only son of the Taoist Qu, he was no longer lacking in money and money. He didn't have much ambition or power, so he should have been satisfied long ago. However, he would still bring his subordinates around to cause trouble every day because he still wanted to be watched. He wanted his father, who had left him for over twenty years, to give him a few more glances.

"On the Internet, there is a black area," the kohlrabi fructus said mysteriously. "That is a forbidden area that ordinary citizens are unable to access, and there is no law controlling it. is the darkest and freest side of the Internet. "

Hearing kohlrabi fructus's description, some of the little brothers looked forward to it, while some others nervously swallowed their saliva.

"One of them is called 'Phoenix'." kohlrabi fructus gloomily said.

"The Phoenix net! I know, I often watch the news up there! " A lackey said excitedly as he raised his hand.

"Don't interrupt!" kohlrabi fructus impatiently glared at his little brother, "I'm talking about 'Phoenix', not 'Phoenix News Network'!" The little atmosphere that he had painstakingly created was completely washed away by his younger brother's interruption.

"The Phoenix is an auction site where you can auction anything you want. You can sell off all the antiques, abducted women, concert tickets, or even yourself. As long as you want to, you can sell anything!"

"Me? How are we going to sell it? " A lackey couldn't help but ask.

"You have to put your life on the line. The person who bought you will ask you to help him kill or transport the poison. After completing the mission, you will regain your freedom. You haven't done it yet, haven't you?"

"What if it isn't completed?"

After kohlrabi fructus finished speaking, there was already no one who dared to say anything. The air became deathly still, as they were just bullies that feared the strong. In front of the true darkness, they were insignificant.

After a long while, someone asked, "How much can that Mermaid's scale be sold for on that website?"

"It depends on your appearance," kohlrabi fructus pretended to be very understanding, "If your appearance is ordinary, you can only sell it for four to five hundred thousand."

Oh my god, a scale selling for four to five hundred thousand yuan? How many scales did that Mermaid have?

"Then, what I mean is, how much can a perfect scale sell for?" a lackey asked.

kohlrabi fructus raised his right hand, reached out his thumb and pinky, and made a 6.

"Six hundred thousand?" With the previous four or five hundred thousand gold coins, this six hundred thousand gold coins met everyone's expectations.

"Six million." kohlrabi fructus pretended to be deep in thought.

The lackeys took a deep breath. Compared to the average Merfolk Fish scales, the perfect Merfolk Fish scales could be sold for more than ten times the price. They could not imagine why such a wealthy person would be willing to pay six million just to buy a piece of scale.

"6 million is still a price without a market," the kohlrabi fructus continued, "If someone really did take the scales and put them on the website for auction, the price would definitely be even higher."

No one said anything. Everything that the kohlrabi fructus had described was too bizarre, not to mention how the buyer had verified whether the scale was real or fake, and not to mention how the seller should have collected it. If that was the case, wouldn't that living mermaid be able to sell for billions of dollars?

"So, if there really is a fish in Qingyu Lake, then we are rich." The kohlrabi fructus said with a smile.

The lackeys were suddenly enlightened. Yes, even though to them, the legend of the mermaid was so illusory, but with the allure of money, the mermaid thing seemed to become within reach of their hands.

This was the charm of money. It could confuse a person's mind and allow them to touch things that they could not avoid.

Why did fish scales sell for such a high price? One had to know that a Mermaid's body had at least hundreds of scales.

They did not think about the dangerous information in this question at all. All they could think about was greed.
