Chapter 69 New Land(1/2)
Before discussing business, private detective Da Boyens asked one thing first: "Madam, with your identity and status, there are many capable people to do things for you. You don't have to ask me to do these three things."
Zhuo Yuling was silent for a moment and replied: "I don't want others to know about the last two things, especially the Lu family."
Da Boyens smiled and said: "The land reclamation work is done for the Lu family, but this is just a cover. The saving and killing people are done for you, madam?"
Zhuo Yuling frowned slightly: "I remember you didn't talk so much before, please tell me the price."
Da Boyens thought for a moment and put a price on the three things Zhuo Yuling proposed:
"The first thing is to open up wasteland. There is a market price for this. The piece of land you want will cost you three thousand oceans. Needless to say."
Zhuo Yuling nodded and agreed.
Daboyens continued: "The second thing is to find someone. This is very difficult. It's harder than finding a needle in a haystack.
If a needle is dropped into the sea, it will not run away on its own, but your daughter is now avoiding the He family, and it is not that easy to find her."
Upon hearing this, Zhuo Yuling felt unhappy, but there was no trace on her face: "Who did you hear that the He family wanted to kill my daughter? What did my daughter do to disgrace the He family?"
Da Boyens smiled and said: "Madam, there is no airtight wall in the world. This matter did not come from me, and you don't need to lose your temper with me. I just want to tell you that this matter is not easy to do."
Zhuo Yuling put out her cigarette and didn't dwell on the topic any more: "Just give me a price, and there's no need to say any more nonsense."
Da Boyens held out a finger: "Ten thousand oceans."
Zhuo Yuling asked: "Is it guaranteed to happen?"
Da Boyens shook his head and said: "If it's not guaranteed, but I can't find anyone, I won't charge you."
Zhuo Yuling nodded: "Okay, I'll pay the price you said."
"The third thing is to kill people. To kill this Li Banfeng, it's best to capture him alive..." Da Boyens thought for a moment, "Alive, twenty thousand oceans, dead, ten thousand oceans."
Zhuo Yuling picked up the tea cup and took a sip. She was silent for a moment and asked, "You have to pay 10,000 yuan to kill a bastard? Do you think this is appropriate?"
She wanted to say how could Li Banfeng's miserable life be compared to Lu Xiaolan's.
But the words were not spoken.
She would not compare Li Banfeng and her daughter.
In fact, according to the live capture price offered by Da Boyens, Li Banfeng is worth more than her daughter.
Da Boyens looked through the information about Li Banfeng and said to Zhuo Yuling: "I don't know the details of Li Banfeng, and your information is not accurate, which means I have to take a big risk.
"
"Why do you say the information is inaccurate?" Zhuo Yuling frowned slightly.
Da Boyens was very patient: "Madam, your information says that Li Banfeng has no cultivation level, but as far as I know, he is an advanced cultivator."
"A cultivator?" Zhuo Yuling didn't believe Da Boyens, "How do you know he is a cultivator?"
Da Boyens smiled and said: "I said I just met him, do you believe it?"
"Have you seen him?" Zhuo Yuling smiled and shook her head.
Naturally, she wouldn't believe this.
Da Boyens did not know Li Banfeng at all, let alone have any contact with Li Banfeng.
Kodak Boyens thought that the person he met on the road just now was Li Banfeng, the man dressed in a coquettish way.
"Your price is too high," Zhuo Yuling lit another cigarette, shook her head and said, "Li Banfeng is not worth so much money."
"I don't care how much he is worth, but I am worth this price." Da Boyens adjusted his sunglasses.
Zhuo Yuling tried her best to control her emotions, maintaining a soft and lazy smile and said: "Da Binzi, I asked you to come because I thought about the friendship of our acquaintance. Don't know how to advance or retreat."
"Thank you Madam for your love," Da Boyens took off his hat and bowed again, then lowered his voice and said, "I call you Madam because I think highly of you. Xiao Lingzi, you have become a rich lady, why are you still so petty?
?”
The corners of Zhuo Yuling's eyes trembled, and her eyes showed a cold light: "Spider Bin, please be careful when speaking."
Da Boyens smiled and said: "Gecko Ling, you have to be sensible. If you can afford it, I will help you. If you can't afford it, find someone else."
Zhuo Yuling's expression changed, her laziness and indifference disappeared, replaced by unconcealable anger.
Da Boyens put on his top hat and still had a very gentlemanly smile on his face.
…
Li Banfeng was sitting in the gatehouse of Yujiazhai, chatting with the gatekeeper Lao Zhutou.
Li Banfeng said that he was Yu Nan's friend, and Lao Zhu believed him without any doubt.
"Boss Li, you look like our young shopkeeper's friend. She likes to wear men's clothes just like you."
Wear men's clothes?
I am a man!
Why is this old man...
Li Banfeng touched his face and felt a smooth feeling.
What is this?
Blush?
Li Banfeng suddenly realized, no wonder the spider in the canyon wanted to call him ma'am, and the bloody bitch put heavy makeup on his face.
When did she move her hands and why didn't I notice?
"Mr. Zhu, could you please get me a basin of water so I can wash my face."
Lao Zhu is the long-term worker of Yu Nan's family. He joined Yu's family at the age of seventeen and has been working there until today.
Now that he is getting older and can no longer work as a long-term worker, Yu Nan did not resign Lao Zhu, but gave him two rooms in Xindi and asked him to help guard Yujiazhai.
The so-called Yujiazhai is two rows of wooden houses, with seven or eight rooms in each row.
These two rows of wooden houses are very special. They are surrounded by endless forests and it is pitch black. Only the place where the wooden houses are located is bright.
Li Banfeng looked up at the sky and found that there was a halo of light in the night sky, which was projected onto the Yu family's house.
Where does this light source come from?
It fell to the ground without excessive divergence. According to Li Banfeng's understanding, there should be a light source with excellent performance and high precision at high altitude.
But Lao Zhu’s understanding is not like this.
"There was no skylight in the new land originally. Only after the land was cleared, the skylight would shine in."
"Skylight!" Li Banfeng became nervous for a while, thinking of the skylight he had seen.
Lao Zhu waved his hands repeatedly and said: "It's not the sky light, this is the light that should be in the daytime."
Li Banfeng asked: "Is it completely dark here too?"
"That's not true," Lao Zhu sighed softly. "It's not easy for a young shopkeeper to run a cloth store by himself. He saved more than a thousand dollars and spent it all on this new land."
Li Banfeng couldn't understand it even more: "Did you buy this land?"
"Buy it? Where can I buy it?" Lao Zhu smiled bitterly, "The young shopkeeper hired six people to open up wasteland. Each person was given two hundred yuan. Five of the six people died before the land was cleared."
"Five of six people died? Can farming kill people?" Li Banfeng was shocked.
Lao Zhu explained: "Opening up wasteland is not about farming, it is about living in the wasteland for three days. The host will first make a sacrifice and establish an alliance, and then send people to open up the wasteland.
No matter when the land developer goes in today and when he comes out in three days, as long as there is light on the land and the owner drops blood to leave a mark, the land will be developed."
What is the process?
Li Banfeng was confused when he heard this.
Lao Zhu explained it carefully, and Li Banfeng had some idea.
Yu Nan opened up this wasteland in three steps.
In the first step, Yu Nan brought offerings and sacrificed them to the gods in the wilderness, making a covenant with the gods. It is unknown which god he was offering sacrifices to.
In the second step, on the day when the covenant was made, Yu Nan sent out pioneers to live in the wasteland for three days and three nights guarding the altar. As long as one of the pioneers survived, the pioneer was considered successful.
In the third step, Yu Nan returned to the wasteland and left his own blood on the ground as a mark. The land became Yu Nan's.
In terms of the process, Li Banfeng generally understood it.
But this process is unreasonable.
"Yu Nan hired six people, and five of them died. The last one who survived dropped his blood on the wasteland. Wouldn't the wasteland become his?"
Lao Zhu shook his head and said: "No, he has not made a covenant with the gods of this land."
"Isn't it easy to make a covenant? Isn't it just a matter of placing an offering?"
"It still doesn't work. Our young shopkeeper has made a covenant with the gods of this land. The gods will not accept tribute from others within three days.
If he changes a place to make a covenant, it will be his own land, and he will have to pay for the money to hire the wasteland pioneers himself, spending a thousand oceans to buy such a piece of wasteland, it depends on whether he is willing."
Li Banfeng still didn't understand: "Since the land developer is unwilling to buy it himself, why did Yu Nan spend a lot of money to buy this land?"
Lao Zhu sighed and said: "The young shopkeeper wants to leave a way out, but she won't listen to any of us who try to persuade her."
