Chapter 79: Blackmailing People’s Ancestors (Second update, please read it later)
Half a quarter of an hour later.
Tan Zhibai returned to the Tan Mansion briskly and found Tan Baiwan who was playing mahjong with his wife.
"Why are you back so soon?" Tan Wanwan asked, holding a mahjong in his hand and tapping the table gently.
"Master, what a joy!" Tan Zhibai said with a joyous face: "I just went out and bumped into the junior and apprentice of Uncle Jiu in Renjia Town. After I told them about the weird things in our house , they immediately said to come and take a look..."
"What a coincidence? You haven't met the kind of liar who talks about people and ghosts, right?" Tan Baiwan asked suspiciously.
Being able to build a business of his scale and accumulate a net worth of millions is not that easy to fool!
"Sir, can you tell if they are liars or not by letting them try catching ghosts? If they can meet our requirements, it doesn't matter whether they are liars or not." Tan Zhibai said.
"That makes sense. Just go and invite the people in." Tan Wanwan nodded.
The entrance of Tan Mansion.
Mao Shanming said anxiously: "Nephew, how will we divide the work later?"
"How will we divide the work?" Qin Yao was slightly startled.
"Just how to do it? Didn't you say that there is a family of ghosts in Tan Mansion?" Mao Shanming swallowed hard and said weakly: "If we don't communicate well in advance, I will be afraid, uncle." It's too late to protect him."
Qin Yao suddenly realized that he remembered that Mao Shanming had no experience in "fighting monsters" with him, and he didn't know his teammate's top secret skill: holding his head and squatting on defense.
“It’s not dark yet, and if nothing else happens, all the ghosts in that family should be hiding in the house.
Uncle, are you still coming into the house with me? If you follow me in, you don't have to worry about anything, don't think about anything, just squat in the corner with your head in your hands. If a ghost dares to get on you, see if I kill it.
If you don’t want to go in with me, just pretend to be outside, chat with Tan Wanwan for a few words, and then wait for me to come out. "
Mao Shanming coughed dryly and said, "I'd better stay outside to appease Tan Wanwan. This is my specialty. "
The two were talking when they saw Tan Zhibai striding out of the yard, bowing and saying: "Two Taoist priests, my master has invited you. "
Qin Yao patted his uncle on the back and motioned for him to straighten up.
Despite the fact that the uncle is a good person, he still has to maintain a somewhat superior demeanor in front of outsiders.
Otherwise, it will lower the overall prestige of Maoshan and subtly affect every disciple of Maoshan.
"I, Tan Wanwan, have met two Taoist priests." In the yard, Tan Wanwan glanced at Tan Zhibai and looked behind him. A monster like a demon came into his eyes simply and roughly. He was frightened. His heart suddenly shook.
Good boy...
Is this a Taoist priest?
Bandits are not so fierce these days, right?
"What are you looking at?" I have to say that when they first met, Tan Wanwan's look was very impolite, and Qin Yao was not a person who would spoil others, so he immediately asked.
Tan Wanwan was startled, thinking that the murderer was going to kill someone, so he almost turned around and ran away.
"Nephew, don't be so fierce. Look, Master Tan scared you so much that you broke out in a cold sweat." Mao Shanming did not dare to scold Qin Yao like Uncle Jiu, so he could only scold him in his own way. Circus.
Tan Baiwan coughed twice, raised his sleeve and wiped his forehead: "I'm sorry, it was my fault just now. I shouldn't have looked so rude."
Qin Yao nodded silently and said to himself: This Tan Laocai is very sensible and capable of stretching and bending.
Forget it, don’t scare him anymore.
"Mr. Tan, let's not talk nonsense. How much is the reward for catching ghosts for you?" Qin Yao said calmly under Tan Wanwan's frightened eyes. "One... ten oceans." Shocked by the opponent's huge body, Tan Wanwan didn't dare to tell the price of an ocean.
In fact, in the movie, the reward he originally wanted to give Mao Shanming was an ocean. It was Mao Shanming who had a bad idea and let the ghost Xiaobao appear on purpose to scare people, so he extorted more than 500 taels of silver (bank notes).
"Mr. Tan, do you think I am a man who is short of ten dollars?" Qin Yao took out a stack of banknotes from his arms and asked.
Tan Wanwan: "..."
What the hell?
This guy is so rich, why is he a Taoist priest?
Mao Shanming looked at Qin Yao's hand with great covetousness.
He is not ashamed to say that at his age, he has never had so much money in his pocket.
"Mr. Tan, to tell you the truth, we don't like money. To us, money is just pieces of paper. It's troublesome to have too much money and not be able to spend it." Qin Yao held the banknote in his hand He patted it and said with a serious look: "But if we start a forum for ten oceans, where should we put our face in the future?"
Tan Wanwan was dizzy by the stack of banknotes. , said loudly: "One hundred taels, No more. No matter how much money you have, you will get paid for whatever you do."
Qin Yao shrugged and put the banknote into his pocket: "Goodbye."
Seeing that he was about to leave, Mao Shanming hurriedly chased after him and whispered: "Master nephew, one hundred taels of silver is quite a lot. Ordinary people will never see so much silver in their lifetime..."
Qin Yao glanced sideways and whispered: "Uncle Master, we are masters of Maoshan, we can't fall behind. It's just a hundred taels, what does it count?"
Mao Shanming: "..."
It would be great if I can have this kind of confidence.
Damn it...what is that called? It's awesome!
"Wait a minute, you two!" Just as they were about to go out, Tan Baiwan couldn't help shouting: "Two Taoist priests, how many taels of silver do you have to deserve your status?"
Qin Yao smiled slightly, stopped in front of the door, raised his right hand and made an OK gesture.
“Three hundred taels?”
“Three thousand taels!”
Boy, a thief!
Tan Baiwan's face turned pale with anger, and he wanted to grab the other person's clothes and ask him harshly, do you know what three thousand taels means?
However, then he thought of the stack of banknotes in the other person's arms, and the anger that had just surged dissipated unknowingly.
What can he do if he meets such a rich and face-saving mage?
No way!
"Less, less...Three thousand taels, that's too much." Taking a deep breath, Tan Wanwan, with a smile on his face, said warmly: "One thousand and five, I will do it now. You can pay a deposit of five hundred taels.”
“You think this is shopping, and you can still bargain!”
Qin Yao turned around and said: "Mr. Tan, I can tell you very responsibly that ghosts are ominous and combine poverty, sorrow, decline, disaster... and other eighteen ominous things into one body. They have no magic power or great luck. My body will definitely be affected if I stay with them. You have been losing money in your recent business, right? Maybe... your health is not as good as before."
Tan Wanwan's face changed for a while, and he finally gritted his teeth: "Okay, three thousand taels, that's all. After it’s done, offer it with both hands!”
Qin Yao smiled silently and turned around.
Mao Shanming looked at him with almost admiration, and his heart was shocked.
It is said that they were originally here to recruit ghost employees. Even if Tan Wanwan didn't give him a cent, they would still have to do what they should do. What would be the result?
Qin Yao blackmailed a total of three thousand taels!
Oh my god.
This is the ancestor of the blackmailer!
