After a banquet in which both host and guest enjoyed themselves, Shen Jianxin and others sat around in a simple but warm wooden house, tasting pine needle tea, a specialty of the north.

Shen Jianxin picked up the natural handmade wooden cup, took a look at the tea, and commented: "The shape is stretched and straight like a spear, the color is emerald green, the soup is bright green, and the bottom of the leaves is bright green."

As he spoke, Shen Jianxin smelled and then tasted: "The tea enters the throat, the taste is fresh and mellow, the aroma fills the tip of the tongue, the pure fragrance of the tea is swallowed and the aftertaste is long."

“The cedar needles of the North truly live up to their reputation.”

Hearing Shen Jianxin's comments, Bai He felt slightly embarrassed: "I didn't expect Mr. Shen to actually understand this niche herbal tea."

"Drinking tea with pine needles is also a helpless way that I found out in this bitter cold place. It is really difficult to reach the level of elegance."

"If it hadn't been for what happened back then, and I would have been reduced to this poor place by suffering, who would have entertained the distinguished guests with herbal tea?"

Shen Jianxin waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, what is the meaning of Youdao? He was abandoned on the road and drifted beside the ancient prison. Although he is buried and useless, he can still soar to the sky every night."

"Senior Bai He just hasn't met the Ming Master for a while. It's not his own problem."

"How can you say that being abandoned on the middle road can still be so powerful every night!" Reciting the verses uttered by Shen Jianxin, Bai He recalled the past with unspeakable sadness in his eyes.

"That's all. I don't want to talk about the right or wrong of what happened back then."

"Since we voluntarily settled in this bitter and cold place, it means that we are tired of the ups and downs on the mainland and have had enough of living under the shelter of others."

"Although it is bitterly cold here, there is no one to disturb you, so you can feel at ease."

"If your distinguished guest still wants to persuade us to join our sect, then please forgive me for being unreasonable. There are still important matters to deal with in the clan. Distinguished guest, please help yourself. I will take my leave first."

With that said, Bai He stood up and was about to step out of the cabin.

"Hmph!" Dugu Bo snorted coldly, his momentum bursting out, and the shaking cabin was crumbling: "The clan members are almost dead, what else do you have to do?"

"Now your whole clan together is less than a thousand people."

"Did moving to this bitter cold place make your old bird's heart freeze with it?"

"Could it be that you still want hundreds of people from your clan to be buried with your proud head?"

Feeling Dugu Bo's astonishing momentum and listening to Dugu Bo's cold words that looked like threats, Bai He stopped immediately and said with a slightly panicked look in his eyes: "What do you mean, Your Majesty?"

"Old man, please calm down. We are not here to cause trouble. Being friendly makes you rich."

At this time, Shen Jianxin seemed to be possessed by Ning Fengzhi, and stood up with a smile, trying to smooth things over in a humble and polite manner.

"snort!"

After some persuasion, Dugu Bo snorted coldly, his face was gloomy, and he regained his momentum with a somewhat unconvinced look.

Seeing this, Bai He didn't dare to anger Dugu Bo anymore. He lowered his arrogant head slightly, took a few steps back, and quietly sat back down.

"I still say what I said, my Min clan no longer intends to rely on others and be a chess piece that will be abandoned at any time."

"I wonder if Tang Xiao, the current leader of the Haotian Sect, is my nephew, so why don't you just abandon him at the drop of a hat?"

"Big power, ha!"

Bai He's words were full of desolation and anger. He suddenly mentioned Haotian Sect, and he was also telling everyone in disguise that I don't believe in big forces like you.

Seeing that the conversation had reached this point, Shen Jianxin smiled slightly: "Since Senior Bai He doesn't want to rely on others, how about we talk about business and cooperation?"

The compromise method used in the negotiation was cleverly used by Shen Jian at this time.

First mention something that you are unlikely to agree to, and after you refuse, mention something that you can barely accept, so as to achieve your true purpose.

Sure enough, when he heard the words business and cooperation, Bai He spread his hands with confusion in his eyes: "Business? Cooperation?"

"All my things are in this wooden house. You can take whatever your guest likes, why bother to insult me?"

Bai He's meaning is obvious. For 500,000 gold soul coins, apart from everyone in our clan, I don't think I have anything worth that much money.

Shen Jianxin's face straightened up and he said bluntly: "I want crystal blood dragon ginseng."

"As long as Senior Bai He is willing to give up his love, all the 500,000 gold soul coins will belong to Senior."

"Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng?" Bai He was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "I don't know where you got the news that I have that thing."

"But look, I'm so poor here."

【No? It's impossible. Didn't he give it to Tang San in the original work? Could it be that something happened due to my influence? 】

Shen Jianxin frowned slightly: "Senior, cultivation depends on wealth, partners, Dharma, and land."

"Look at your current situation, it's like a land of no where."

"If you don't think about yourself, you should also think about the new generation in your clan. In such an environment, it doesn't matter what you want. How do you train the next generation?"

"If things continue like this, your Min clan will have no future even if you are not exterminated."

Bai He shook his head and nodded again: "Everything Mr. Shen said is right."

"But that Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng is also my family heirloom."

"Look at me, I'm so poor. I'm so poor."

"So, we have to pay more!"

If we followed the normal order, Bai He might not agree so easily.

But after Dugu Bo's verbal threats just now, Bai He has figured out that the strong are respected and the weak have no say at all.

Bai He couldn't afford to risk Dugu Bo's anger and annihilation of the clan by betting on Shen Jianxin and his party to be reasonable.

After all, there is an old saying: If you are confused, it will be mine if I beat you to death.

It was because of this that Dugu Bo compromised and led Shen Jianxin and his party to ransack his home. Now Bai He is facing the same situation.

It's just that his demands are different from Dugu Bo's. What he wants is to get as many benefits for himself as possible while Shen Jianxin and others are still being reasonable.

After all, the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng is just one plant and can be bought and sold at once. Of course, he wants to sell it at a better price.

Hearing this, Shen Jianxin laughed loudly and said, "More money, more money is good."

As he spoke, Shen Jianxin waved his hand, and golden rain suddenly began to fall in the hut.

The golden soul coins all over the sky hit the wooden floor, making a dull sound of 'dong dong'.

The numbers stored in the card are always not as intuitive as the cash in front of you, and the cash in front of you is naturally not as shocking as the gold soul coins flying all over the sky.

Seeing this unheard of rain of gold soul coins, Bai He, who was used to living in poverty, was stunned.

Not to mention the hard times he is living now, even when he was working for the Haotian Sect, he had never seen such a scene.

Hao, now Bai He finally knows the true meaning of the saying that the Qibao Glazed Sect is so rich that it can rival other countries.

"Enough, enough, enough."

It wasn't until the golden soul coins fell from the sky and were buried on Bai He's ankles that Bai He woke up and shouted loudly.

Shen Jianxin immediately stopped his hand and put his consciousness into the storage soul guide. He was shocked to find that the 500,000 gold soul coins had not been scattered yet, and there were about 100,000 left.

I couldn't help but sigh, how long has this Baihe been poor, and his ability to withstand the impact of money is so low.

[If I had known that I would have scattered the 500,000 in the box like this, I might have saved another 100,000 gold soul coins. 】

It was just a hundred thousand gold soul coins, so Shen Jianxin didn't worry about it so much. She just calculated the gains and losses out of habit and put the matter behind her.

Looking at Bai He whose face was filled with surprise, Shen Jianxin smiled slightly: "Senior, the money has arrived. Where is my Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng?"
