Douluo Continent: Peerless God General, starting by deceiving Qian Renxue

Chapter 23 The Deal is Made and the Immortal Herb is in Hand

Looking at the Gold Soul Coin Card in Jia Chong's hand, Bai He couldn't help but be tempted.

These past few years, the Min clan has had an extremely difficult time. If it weren't for the Po clan's help, they would have perished long ago.

If they obtain these four million gold soul coins, from now on they will not only no longer have to worry about money, but they will also be able to pay off all their debts and have a surplus to give back to the Po clan.

However, the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng was his family heirloom, and how could he face his ancestors if he just sold it off like that?

Seeing Bai He's dilemma, Jia Chong recalled the letters that Nan Feihuang had prepared for him in advance.

"Mr. Baihe, our king said that if you have any concerns, he should speak with you personally. These are several letters he wrote to you. I'll give you the first one first." Jia Chong took out the letters and handed the first one to Baihe in order.

In fact, all of these letters were written by Xun Yu, but Bai He did not know Nan Tianchen's handwriting. Although Xun Yu was a child, he was a Soul Master after all, and his calligraphy was quite good. It was not difficult for him to imitate Nan Tianchen and write a few letters with vigorous strokes.

People who are not familiar with Nan Tianchen would not be able to tell.

The first letter read, “Dear Mr. Baihe, I have always admired you and know your noble character that you cannot be corrupted by wealth and honor. I would never allow you to exchange your family heirloom for gold soul coins. Therefore, I am willing to add three more bargaining chips: kinship, benevolence, and righteousness.”

"I am aware of your relationship with Tang Hao. Tang Hao has been missing for many years. Are you worried? I have obtained information about Haotian Douluo and wish to inform you so that your family can be reunited."

"I am aware that the Min clan has been living in poverty for many years. You are too proud to accept the Soul Master subsidy, so I would like to add another million gold soul coins. As the head of the clan, you should prioritize the development of the sect in everything you do. Although the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng is your clan's heirloom, it cannot be used and is ultimately just an ornamental item. Compared with the future of the sect, it is insignificant. Why should you be stingy with such a mundane thing?"

"I also know that Yang Wudi and you are close friends. During the battle against the Spirit Hall, his younger brother Yang Wushuang was captured by the Spirit Hall and there has been no news of him since. Yang Wudi has been worried for many years. I have obtained information about him again and I am willing to give it to you. You and Yang Wudi have been friends for many years and you will surely not refuse to fulfill your brotherly duty."

This letter hit Baihe's weak spot with every word.

He was naturally concerned about Tang Hao's affairs. Although the incident was caused by Tang Hao, Tang Hao was, after all, a descendant of his own sister, so how could he ignore it?

The family's hardships were his deepest resentment. Indeed, if he were to give up the opportunity to lead the family to development in order to protect the so-called family heirloom, how could he face his clansmen? He himself could uphold the virtue of filial piety, but what about the virtue of benevolence towards the clansmen as the clan leader?

Finally, Yang Wudi had done a great favor to his Min clan, saving their lineage. He knew how worried Yang Wudi was about Yang Wushuang. Now, there was a clear opportunity to get information about Yang Wushuang and repay Yang Wudi. If he gave it up because of his stubbornness, what would be his duty to Yang Wudi? It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was ungrateful.

Bai He was somewhat influenced by Xun Yu at this point, as if not agreeing to Xun Yu's suggestion would make him cold-blooded, heartless, and unjust.

"Grandpa!" Just then, a little girl with purple hair ran in. She was dressed in coarse linen clothes and had a pretty and cute face. She looked a little younger than Nan Feihuang.

Jia Chong smiled and asked, "Mr. Baihe, is this your granddaughter?"

He already knew of Bai Chenxiang's existence. According to Xun Yu's contingency plan, even if Bai Chenxiang didn't show up on her own, he would find an excuse to see her later.

"Yes, she is my granddaughter, Bai Chenxiang. Come, Xiangxiang, quickly greet Senior Jia Chong," Bai He said.

Bai Chenxiang stood obediently in front of Jia Chong, gave a small bow, and said, "Xiangxiang greets Senior Jia!"

"What a well-behaved and lovely little girl. Your grandfather and I are of the same generation. If you don't mind, you can call me Grandpa Jia. By the way, since it's our first meeting, I didn't prepare any gift for you. Originally, this was for my granddaughter, but I'll give it to you, Xiangxiang." Jia Chong took out a piece of purple cloth from his soul tool. It was the finest silk.

Bai Chenxiang had never seen such beautiful fabric before. Her girlish nature made her fall in love with it. "Thank you, Grandpa Jia."

"Grandpa, look! The fabric Grandpa Jia gave us is so beautiful! Can I use it to make a dress? Just one will do."

Bai Chenxiang looked at Bai He with hope. She had always been very frugal and worried that Bai He would sell such a valuable piece of cloth to supplement the family income.

But she really liked the fabric and wanted a pretty dress. She was just a little girl, and it wouldn't take her much fabric to make a dress.

This was Xun Yu's final strike, and he was confident that this attack would definitely break Bai He's defenses.

Sure enough, Bai Chenxiang's hopeful eyes completely shattered Bai He's belief. Was it really worth it to guard the so-called inheritance and let his family live in poverty?

Is it really worth it to cling to the so-called inheritance while ignoring Yang Wudi's long-cherished feelings for his brother?

"It's not worth it!" the white crane suddenly said.

Two rhetorical questions, each answering the other, finally convinced Bai He to make up his mind. "Mr. Jia Chong, Bai He is willing to agree to your country's trade. I am willing to offer you the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng with both hands."

"Haha, that's wonderful! It'll be a pleasure working with you!" Jia Chong stood up happily, finally having lived up to the high expectations of the King and the Crown Prince.

In this way, the king's health can be saved.

I only hope that after this recovery, the king will be more restrained.

This naive guy still really thinks that Nan Tianchen is impotent, which is why he needs Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng.

The transaction was completed quickly. Jia Chong transferred five million gold soul coins to Bai He and also gave him a letter containing messages about Tang Hao and Yang Wushuang.

He also successfully obtained the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng from Bai He.

After leaving the Min clan, Jia Chong did not immediately leave Xingluo, but instead went to the Po clan again to make a deal.

Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng has a very strong medicinal effect, one of which is that it can combine with the power of other medicines to make the medicine even stronger.

The perfect effectiveness of Xiao Wu's Lovesick Heartbreak Red Medicine in the original novel was inseparable from the assistance of the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng.

Although Nan Feihuang doesn't have any other immortal herbs at the moment, there are always some high-grade medicinal herbs in various major forces. Nan Feihuang's own treasure pavilion has many medium-grade medicinal materials.

And the Po clan, which mainly focuses on alchemy, has even more of them.

Jia Chong spent two million to purchase a sixth-grade Ganoderma lucidum, an Ice Crystal Lotus, and countless other medicinal herbs from the Po Clan. Jia Chong completed the Po Clan's sales target for several years, instantly becoming a Gold-level VIP of the Po Clan.

Although these two herbs are far inferior to even the ninth-grade purple ganoderma, they are still considered high-grade herbs, and the price is worthwhile. Most importantly, in Nan Feihuang's hands, they can produce completely different effects.

After all, the last chapter of the Book of Dunjia is about alchemy.
