Chapter 192: Rare
When Qiyilou opened this time, Zhang Liang witnessed how much people desired elixirs and magical artifacts, especially those guys who roamed the world alone. They did not have the elixirs and rare materials that Zhang Liang needed, but dared to risk their lives to steal and rob.
Although Zhang Liang did not let them succeed, he did appreciate the power of these lone rangers. Most of these people were wanted criminals in various countries, and it was difficult to determine whether they were good or bad, but they were able to live freely after being wanted, which showed that their strength should not be underestimated.
Among this group of lone rangers, masters at the Grandmaster level were not uncommon, and there were also a few Half-Step Grandmasters and Great Zhoutian masters, but they were all extremely low-key, hiding very deeply, and rarely accepted others' recruitment. However, Zhang Liang could use his magic weapons and elixirs as rewards to lure these people into taking action.
There are countless bounties in the world, but most of them use gold and silver as rewards, which is probably difficult to impress these lone rangers. However, elixirs and artifacts are different. Once they are put up as rewards, they are enough to make them excited.
Zhang Liang had already sentenced Yan Chunjun of Yan, Lü Buwei of Qin, and Tian Hu of the Nong family to death. These people had sent people to sneak into the Zhang family compound to commit crimes, and they had long been on Zhang Liang's blacklist. If he offered a bounty for killing them with elixirs, even if he couldn't take their heads, he could make them live in fear.
However, Zhang Liang changed his mind and thought that Qiyilou had been conspicuous enough recently. If he offered a reward to these guys, it would probably arouse more people's vigilance and hostility, so he gave up the idea. With his strength and background, it would not be difficult to deal with these people. Offering a reward was the most likely to cause taboos and disgust, so it was better to save it for a critical moment.
At this time, Zhang Li walked in quickly and said seriously: "Sir, Han Fei and Wei Zhuang are asking to see you at the foot of the mountain!"
"Did they say what it was about?" Zhang Liang couldn't help but frown. To be honest, he really didn't like Han Fei and Wei Zhuang. Every time they met, they always brought him a lot of trouble.
"They didn't mention anything specific, but judging from their expressions, it must be extremely urgent." Zhang Li answered directly.
"Has anything big happened in South Korea recently?" Zhang Liang asked casually.
"The opening of Qiyi Building attracted a large number of ruthless characters, causing chaos in many places. In addition, the Luowang forces of Qin have been making trouble behind the scenes, attempting to stir up disputes among countries. After Qiyi Building closed yesterday, many forces were ambushed on the way, and all the elixirs and artifacts they had just bought were looted." Zhang Li reported in detail.
"We are only responsible for selling goods. Whether the buyers can take them away safely is their own business!" Zhang Liang shook his head and said calmly. With so many people eyeing his territory and Qiyi Building, it was not surprising that the buyers who were not even the Grandmasters were attacked. They could only blame themselves for not being able to protect their own things.
"You're right. But I heard that several forces were stranded in Xinzheng City due to an ambush. I think Han Fei and Wei Zhuang's visit this time should be related to this." Zhang Li analyzed.
"Could it be that they want me to escort them?" Zhang Liang smiled, but thinking that it involved his clients, he decided not to ignore it, so he instructed: "Then please ask Han Fei and Wei Zhuang to come up."
"Yes, sir!" Zhang Li bowed and accepted the order, then went down to pass on the message immediately.
"Young master, why bother to meddle in other people's business? If you don't meet Han Fei, others won't be able to say anything. After all, the buyers themselves failed to protect the treasures, so you can't be blamed. But if you meet Han Fei and know about this but don't intervene, I'm afraid some people will blame you for this." Yan Lingji reminded.
"Hold a grudge? I don't care. After the opening of Qiyilou, there will be more than one group of people who want to become our customers. At worst, we can just change the customer group next year. Anyway, we don't have to worry about not being able to sell our products." Zhang Liang responded with a smile.
Zhang Liang signaled Yan Lingji to leave, and soon after, Han Fei and Wei Zhuang came to visit. Recently, the couple's life has not been smooth. The domestic situation in South Korea has been turbulent, making Han Fei and Wei Zhuang exhausted. There are always a lot of difficult problems waiting for them to solve.
Especially in Qin, King Ying Zheng of Qin was already actively preparing a plan to attack Han. Although he had not yet officially sent troops, he had never stopped infiltrating, provoking and suppressing Han. Taking advantage of the opening of Qiyilou, many forces gathered in Xinzheng City, and Luowang naturally did not stop fanning the flames, leading to constant conflicts among the parties, and even Han Fei himself was assassinated.
Fortunately, Han Fei is low-key and has decent strength. Although he cannot be called a top master, he has already entered the realm of half-step master. Thanks to the mysterious power in the Ni Lin sword, he was able to escape death.
However, Zhang Liang noticed that Wei Zhuang's aura was more powerful and deep than before. It turned out that he had been promoted to the middle stage of the Grandmaster. Before this, Wei Zhuang could compete with the middle stage masters when he was in the early stage of the Grandmaster. Now he has been promoted to the middle stage of the Grandmaster. Looking at the whole world, there were only a handful of people who could reach this level at such a young age a hundred years ago, and now it is probably even rarer.
