Chapter 1167 Drinking Water
Obviously, Chen Mengqi and Lan Yudie did not fit the image of a 'businessman' in her heart. The business partners she came into contact with in the past were all those evil Taoist priests, or big bosses who asked her to cast spells.
But these are not important anymore. Seeing their young, beautiful appearance, and good figure, and thinking of their shriveled body and loose skin, the old woman couldn't help feeling jealous, and a vicious thought came up uncontrollably : "Anyway, you have already come to my territory, so I will let you come and go!"
However, Chen Mengqi and Lan Yudie didn't know her thoughts at all, and asked very politely: "Grandma, what era is it now, and you still light kerosene lamps?"
"Hmph! My old lady is born with a weak life, so I can't afford those high-end things!" said the old lady. As a liaison and ferryman between the underworld and the underworld, she often cooperates with those evil Taoist priests and big bosses, and her net worth has already exceeded 100 million. There are many big local bosses, and it is not uncommon for her to make a fortune.
At this point, some people will probably ask, she has so much money, but she doesn't even dare to turn on the lights, what does she need so much money for? Will it be left as a coffin book? In fact, her money is very useful. She will use it to buy some special things, such as the merits of living people, lifespan, luck, etc... and these things can be exchanged for ghost coins.
You can't enjoy the wealth and honor in the world when you are alive, but you can be rich after death. If you have more Ming coins, you can bribe the judge to make her reincarnated as a princess or something in her next life. If you have more money, you can also buy qi training cheats from the underworld and start to practice the immortal way of the earth. Of course, from her perspective, she probably doesn't know about cultivation yet.
"So that's how it is." Lan Yudie said. He also knows in his heart that those who can be the ferrymen of the underworld are those with extremely low fate, the kind that are so low that they are even worse than beggars.
"This old lady is so pitiful, she doesn't even dare to light a lamp." Chen Mengqi thought to herself, feeling a little sympathetic to her. Then I looked at the leftovers in the bowls and chopsticks on the table: "I also eat rough tea and light rice, rice bran and vegetables, and I wear shabby clothes, ragged clothes, and I am seventy or eighty years old. I have no relatives, and I am lonely..."
"Since you two have come from a long way, please sit down." The old woman pointed to a wooden table in the corner of the room and said. The table was also very old and loose, probably decades old.
"Thank you, mother-in-law!" Chen Mengqi and Lan Yudie said. After finishing speaking, he walked over and sat on the bench, and the old woman also came over and sat down.
"Grandma, are you enshrining Zhong Kui?" Lan Yudie asked after looking at the portraits and incense on the wall. The ferrymen in the underworld would enshrine a god of the underworld. Some worshiped a bull-headed horse face, and some worshiped the judge Zhong Kui. In short, they were all gods of the underworld with relatively low positions.
Of course, it is not certain whether these little gods of the underworld recognize them or not. At the level of a ferryman, it has not yet reached the point where these little gods pay attention. Only by doing some great things can those gods be alarmed.
It is said that these little gods of the underworld enshrined by the ferrymen are to be hanged and beaten in front of Xiao Fei. Xiao Fei is able to make a big fuss in the underworld, and even the king of Hades in the ten palaces is afraid.
Of course, there is no comparison between the ferryman and Xiao Fei.
"That's right. Therefore, I have Zhong Kui's mana!" The old woman said indifferently, with an element of arrogance in her expression, as if she really had very strong mana: "I don't know why you two know my mana here, what is it?" Since you are here, please tell me what you want me to do?"
"Besides, it was agreed in advance that if you want an old woman to do something, the starting price is 10 million! If you don't have money, don't talk about it. But judging by the Ferrari you drive, it shouldn't be the one who doesn't have money."
"The starting price is 10 million!?" Lan Yudie and Chen Mengqi's eyes widened. The old woman didn't even dare to use the lamp, but she directly offered a price of 10 million, and she didn't change her face, just like Sikong. Although their two families are very rich, it is impossible to say that they will get 10 million if they take 10 million.
Their usual pocket money is only tens of thousands a month.
"Why, do you think the price is high?" The old woman sneered, "Many big bosses come to beg the old woman to cast a spell with a box of cash, but the old woman ignores him. Do you know the boss of Nanbo Group, he once knelt on the old woman For three days and three nights outside this dilapidated house, he begged me to let me renew his life, but I didn't agree to him."
The Yinsi Ferryman is not an ordinary witch, she has an effect every time she casts a spell, no wonder it is so expensive. Although the rich businessman who bought the lives of migrant workers only threw 5,000 yuan on the ground, the cost to her is estimated to be no less than tens of millions. It's not that cheap to buy your life against the sky.
"Old woman, I can only accept business three times a year, otherwise, if I leak too many secrets, I will be punished by heaven." The old woman said: "If the old woman did not see that you two are destined, she would not give you this opportunity. Cherish it." .”
Really want 10 million? Chen Mengqi and Lan Yudie frowned, they definitely couldn't afford so much money. They were full of confidence at the beginning, but they didn't expect her to charge skyward prices as soon as she opened her mouth.
"You two, please drink tea!" At this moment, a gloomy light flashed in the eyes of the old woman, which was fleeting. stand up. He took out two water glasses, lifted the thermos bottle, and began to pour water for them.
If it is an old monster, a thousand-year-old ghost, it is very likely that he will take away their homes, absorb their blood, and make himself as young and beautiful as them.
But it's clear that the old woman hasn't reached that level yet.
After the old woman filled the water, she put it in front of them: "Girls, it doesn't matter if you don't have that much money, who is the old woman? I think you are destined? As a practitioner, my old woman has a body with a heavenly heart and a heart with a heart. Out of compassion, I decided to help you once for free."
"Help us for free?" Chen Mengqi and Lan Yudie were pleasantly surprised, and picked up the water glasses.
When they saw the water glasses, they frowned for a while. Because both the water glass and the water in the water glass look dirty. The two of them are the second generation of rich, well-clothed and well-fed, where have they ever drank such a dirty thing?
Only little girls like them who love cleanliness and have no shortage of money at home will look at the water glass under such circumstances. If it were someone else, no one would pay attention to details such as whether the water glass is dirty or not under the sudden change from 10 million to the sudden no payment, and the extreme surprise.
Although they saw it, Chen Mengqi and Lan Yudie thought about it, since the old lady was so enthusiastic, she agreed to help for free. If you don't drink it, it's a bit unreasonable.
