Chapter Eighty-Seven: One Hundred Billion Rolled Away

  As long as I write down this "Bring in the Ale", there will be 10 billion gold coins!

  Sleeping Master is on top! What's this? This is what it means to have a strong presence!

  This is the president of the Chamber of Commerce, one sentence is worth 100 billion!

  But...

  That resentment in Li Xie's heart!

  He can recognize characters and recite poems, but when it comes to writing, for someone who has written his own name only a few times in over twenty years, what's the point of even mentioning calligraphy?

  Brushes can't even be held, characters are scribbled in black ink, and some rare characters have to be replaced with xx!

  Is this something that can be shown to others?

  If this "calligraphy" were to be taken out, it would probably drag Li Bai's poems down to the level of dog shit. Don't mention 10 billion, I reckon Sandor Clegane would burst forth and tear Li Ye into eight pieces.

  Sándor Csoóri was a true master of calligraphy, can't be fooled.

  At this moment, Li Xie really wanted to chop off his own hand and see if a new one would grow back, one that was good at calligraphy.

  However, despite Li Xie's ignorance of calligraphy, the temptation of 10 billion gold coins was not something he could decline with a humble excuse just because he didn't understand calligraphy.

  Can't understand calligraphy, can think of other ways, right?

  "The ink treasure under me is not casually passed down to the world." Li Wei put on a pose of self-pride and complacency, typical of literary men: "However, I do have an idea. Why don't we ask the president to inscribe this poem, write it out, and then I'll stamp my seal on it? How's that?"

  "Impossible, impossible..." Sandor Kocsis shook his head: "How can my humble writing be compared to yours? Please, take up the brush and let me broaden my horizons!"

  Sándor Kocsis insisted, but Li Xie could only push it away again: "This time I still want to combine with the president's poetry book. As for my treasure, I'll give it to you another day. This is settled, and I hope the president won't force me again. After all, as the saying goes, a forced melon is not sweet."

  The great poet of the continent of gods, must also be a master of calligraphy. Sandor Koci didn't suspect Li Xie at all, thinking that he just didn't want to leave his mark, so he could only sigh and shout: "Come on, bring the brush and ink."

  The servant moved out the desk, and Sandor Clegane had no choice but to take up his pen himself and write down "Bring Out Your Dead" in its entirety on the rice paper.

  Sándor Kocsis loved books, paintings and poetry. He himself was also a master of calligraphy. With one stroke of his brush, he could create a dragon dancing on the paper, leaving Li Xie, who didn't understand calligraphy, secretly admiring him.

  "Please sign below." said Sándor Kocsis.

  Li Xie took out his own City Lord Seal from the Spatial Ring, let out two mouthfuls of air, and heavily stamped it with the most valuable seal he had used so far!

  "Good!" Although he didn't get Li Xie's calligraphy, Sandor Kocsis kept shouting "Housekeeper, order someone to frame it well. This piece of writing, I want to hang it on the wall today. The poem and book crazy person's one, change it! Also, instruct them to send the new batch of magic beasts to Chrysanthemum City! And..."

  Wow!

  Li Xie's eyes looked at Sandor Clegane with a hint of expectation, those four thousand demonic beasts were just a small number, not even worth mentioning! The most valuable thing was what came next!

  "Besides, I'll take ten bottles of each of the fine wines I've collected and give them to Duke Xie. The music of bells and drums, the delicacy of jade, are not enough to be cherished, but I wish to get drunk and never wake up again. Since ancient times, all sages have been lonely, only drinkers leave their names behind. It seems that Duke Xie is a connoisseur of good wine, go!"

  "Huh? What's that? Will the honorable gentleman please say something less? For example... for example, one hundred million, or one billion?" Li Xie blinked his eyes, with a look of urgency on his face. I'm not uninterested in wine, but I love money even more! I'm not lonely, and I don't want to leave my name behind, I want one billion!

  Sándor Kocsis chuckled: "When will your ink treasure be bestowed, and the one hundred billion will naturally follow. You say, isn't that right?"

  My god! What a scam!

  Don't be like that!

  Li Ye's face immediately turned into a bitter face! A pair of eyes were rolling with gold coins, rolling out 100 billion, and the rolling was gone!

  My grandma! I'll go back and practice calligraphy! Next time it won't be 10 billion, I want 20 billion! 40 billion!

  Next to Ge Rui De, the prince was also feeling depressed in his heart, just like Li Xie. He had originally come to watch Li Xie make a fool of himself, but unexpectedly, things took a turn for the better for him. Not only did he get the demon beast for free, but now it seemed that he might even be able to make friends with the president of the Demon Beast Association. This trip was turning out to be another fruitless endeavor for the prince.

  This was the second time, Prince Gerd had already put Li Xie on his hate list. Seeing him staring at Li Xie's back, a fierce glint flashed in his eyes! However, at this moment, he also didn't have the ability to take revenge on Li Xie. Moreover, since the demon beast was gone, there was no point in staying behind. So, he saw him stand up and bid farewell with a bow. Unfortunately, Sandro Koci even didn't bother to look at him again, only humming a sound, which annoyed Prince Gerd so much that he turned around and left in anger.

  Li Xie saw Ge Rituo Wangzi leave, the corner of his mouth slightly raised, and smiled: "Does the Guild Leader still have high-level demon beasts? Seventh, eighth, or ninth rank are all fine."

  "Heh heh, you think this is a ranch?" Sandor Kocsis laughed and said: "Magic beasts above level 6 are generally not sold to countries, but well, everything can be negotiated, like Mo Bao... Mo Bao..."

  You're still alive! Speak of the devil!

  Li Xie was even more depressed!

  "Mò Bǎo will definitely be delivered another day!" Li Xiè had made up his mind to go back and practice calligraphy, and said: "I wonder if there are any other ways for magic beasts above the sixth rank?"

  Delighted by the promise, Sandor Clegane said: "You can go to Maidenpool and take a look. Some mercenary groups have two or three, if they are willing to sell, several mercenary groups together is also a considerable number, but bring enough gold coins."

  Li Ye smiled awkwardly: "Definitely, definitely!" He also said: "I hope that next time there will be new goods, you can notify me, of course, when I have a new poem, I will invite the president to appreciate it."

  "Haha, easy to say! This is easy to say!"

  "Well then, I'll take my leave first." The wine had been taken, the demon beast was waiting to be delivered, and the matter was settled, so Li Xie didn't want to stay any longer either.

  However, unwilling to stay is one aspect, on the other hand, Li Xie still has a grudge to settle!

  Sándor Kocsis did not stay with him either, they said goodbye to each other.

  Out of the White Jade Palace, Zainnarde and Vandy Ser were chatting outside when they saw Li Xie and then surrounded him.

  "Sir, how are you?" Vandy Sell said.

  "How's it going? And what about our Prince Gudrid?"

  Li Xie's gains this time are absolutely not small, getting 3,000 fifth-tier magic beasts and 1,000 sixth-tier magic beasts for free, enough to equip the 5,000 elite soldiers in the Evil Army.

  And having poetry in hand, subsequent correspondence with Sándor K?r?si will necessarily go smoothly.

  The only pity is that Li Xie temporarily can't get his hands on those 100 billion.

  Li Xie was somewhat depressed because of this, and when he was depressed, he wanted to find someone to vent his anger. This anger wasn't without reason, having been plotted against by someone, how could he not plot back?

  "Sir, Prince Ge Rite has left the manor. If they head back to their country directly, they will be heading northeast." Vandy Sear saw a slight smile on Li Xie's right mouth corner and could roughly guess what he meant!

  "Hum, go, catch up!"

  The three flew into the sky and at an altitude of 500 meters, they soon discovered that Prince Gildred and his party were still staying in Manny City.

  Li Xie's mouth curled up and he said: "Ze En, go down and beat them up, bring that son of a bitch to the sky."

  "Wait, not now." Vandyke hastily said: "Prince Guilder is here to pay a visit to President Kochi of the Chamber of Commerce. In Manny City, he is under the protection of the Chamber of Commerce. We can only make our move after he leaves Manny City."

  Li furrowed his brow: "What will happen if we move him now?"

  "Vandy Seldy said: "This is the mainland Chamber of Commerce's protection measures for customers, if you move him, it means that you are an enemy of the Chamber of Commerce. The mainland Chamber of Commerce will never tolerate such things, so the customers of the mainland Chamber of Commerce in the jurisdiction area are the safest."

  Li Xie knew that he couldn't compare to the mainland's Chamber of Commerce, so he didn't dare break this rule. However, he couldn't swallow his pride and secretly waited for Prince Ge Rite to leave the city.

  Alas, Prince Ge De Wangzi lingered in Manny City, and three consecutive days passed without seeing any signs of him leaving the city.

  "Hmph!" Li Xie, who was standing on the edge of the tavern, couldn't help but curse out loud: "I bet he'll spend his whole life stuck in Manny City!"

  Vandy Sael said beside him, "Sir, I'm afraid he found himself in danger and didn't leave the city."

  "Where can you see it?"

  "Your subordinate is just guessing, since he came to buy the magic beast, this matter should be entrusted by the Emperor of the Great Day. After completing the task, he should immediately return to his country and report back. But look, sir." Vandy Sell pointed at Prince Gerd's entourage on the street: "Not one of his followers is missing, yet no one has been sent to report back. As a prince, he would not dare to be slow in responding to the Emperor's orders. Since he stayed in Manny City without sending someone to report back first, it should be because he knows that leaving the city is dangerous."

  "Hmm, makes sense." Li Xie nodded slightly.

  "Moreover, sir, if he guesses that you want to hit him and stays longer, it will be disadvantageous for you."

  "What's this supposed to mean?"

  "They came to Manny City for business, they won't just bring a few followers, there must be a team of soldiers waiting outside the city, and we are not monitoring Prince Gideon day and night, nor do we know if he has made any secret arrangements. I'm afraid we thought they were prey, but in fact, we have become the prey."

  Li's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately thought that when he was called to price, he wanted to take advantage of the prince, but instead was taken advantage of, so he knew that this person was absolutely not a fool! Previously, when he came to visit, he was able to eat him steadily because of the absolute power of suppression and the intimidation of the evil beast, and cleverness was useless in front of these two things!

  "Perhaps, that guy really found it." Li Xie narrowed his eyes, but thinking of the two masters by his side, he sneered: "How many soldiers and horses can they bring? Can't you two handle it? Why don't we turn their trick against them, fall into their trap, and then devour all their soldiers and horses. After all, it's an enemy country, the more we kill, the more we gain!"

  Vandy Sore smiled wryly: "Sir, neither Zayn nor I are summoners. In a real battle, we're probably no match for an army of over a thousand equipped with powerful crossbows."

  "What's this supposed to mean?"

  "The Summoner is so powerful because they can combine with their magical pets, greatly reducing physical damage and magical damage. However, Zean and I can only rely on our internal energy to defend ourselves, which consumes a lot of energy. If we were to face a well-equipped army of 1,000 soldiers with strong crossbows, it would be enough to exhaust us to death. Unless there is complex terrain to provide cover, we wouldn't stand a chance against them. Moreover, even if we wanted to protect the adults' safety, Zean and I would find it difficult to do so."

  Li Xie frowned deeply, glanced at Zeenath, and Vandy Sell didn't know that Zeenath was a giant dragon, so he didn't know that Zeenath's defense wasn't something that ordinary strong crossbows could pierce. But what Vandy Sell said was right, if the enemy had too many people, Li Xie himself would also be in danger.

  "Whatever, let's go back. We'll settle the score with that son of a bitch another day. Anyway, we've got plenty of time ahead of us!" Li Xie stood up and patted Fan Di Sel on the shoulder: "I'll get your demonic pet ready as soon as possible. Humph! In the future, you can bring it along and wreak havoc, kill that son of a bitch!"
