Half a day later.
Escort Liang brought back the news that the 13,000-yuan butler Xu Si had agreed to pay 40,000 taels of silver for the escort fee, but he had to meet Lin Yu.
Lin Yu was overjoyed when he heard the news. He immediately went to a mansion by the Qinhuai River with Escort Liang.
This was the Xu Manor.
Walking into the mansion was an eye-opener for Lin Yu. There were pavilions everywhere, and the area was huge. It was simply a luxurious mansion.
"13,000 yuan for a butler is actually so rich. How rich is 13,000 yuan?”Lin Yu looked at the Xu Manor's courtyard and was extremely shocked.
"Master Xu is the richest man in Yingtian." Escort Liang looked at Lin Yu and explained in a low voice.
"Amazing, a butler became the richest man in Ying Tian.”Lin Yu sighed in admiration.
"That's because he's Wan Sanqian's butler.”Escort Liang said matter-of-factly.
"Young Master Lin, Escort Liang, this way please.”At this moment, a servant walked up and said.
Lin Yu and Escort Liang nodded and followed the servants to the main hall of the Xu Manor.
A thin man stood at the entrance of the main hall of the Xu Manor. He was dressed in luxurious clothes and held a folding fan in his hand. He was the butler of the 13,000 households, Xu Si.
Behind Xu Si stood a white-robed man. The white-robed man's temples were bulging. He was obviously an internal practitioner. The white-robed man carried a long sword on his back and did not move at all.
"Young Master Lin…Please come in." Xu Si saw a flattering smile on Lin Yu's face.
However, this smile was very fake in Lin Yu's eyes. It was the standard smile of a businessman, and Lin Yu felt the disdain in the depths of the other party's eyes.
Clearly, he didn't think much of Fu Wei Bodyguard Agency.
"Master Xu, I've long heard of your name." Lin Yu smiled and cupped his fists." Let's cut to the chase. Give me the saber. I'll escort the escort to the Dragon Guarding Mountain Villa in the capital."”
"Haha, Young Escort Leader Lin is a professional. I can give you 40,000 taels for the escort fee this time, but I have one condition.”Xu Si laughed.
"Master Xu, what do you mean? Escort Liang didn't add any conditions when he talked to you, right?”Lin Yu frowned.
"Young Escort Leader, let me finish.”Xu Si smiled and said," This is not my intention. It is the intention of Grand Master Wan. He wants to add something at the last minute."”
"Hehe…"
Lin Yu sneered.
Xu Si was indeed cunning. Adding items meant that the risk on his side was even greater.
"Actually, it's just a small object. It's a gift from the First Master to Miss Shangguan Hai Tang. It's a heavenly silk garment.”Xu Si explained with a smile,"Young Escort Leader can carry it with you."”
"Heavenly Silkworm Robe!"
Escort Liang's expression changed. The Heavenly Silk Garment was a peerless treasure, and once it appeared, it would attract the attention of some evil sect experts.
If they brought the Heavenly Silkworm Clothes with them this time, the danger would increase drastically. They might be killed and their goods stolen along the way.
"Master Xu, we won't do this deal anymore.”Escort Liang hurriedly rejected Xu Si.
Xu Si's expression immediately darkened.
"Uncle Liang, of course we have to do business. Double it!”Lin Yu laughed as he looked at Escort Liang.
"Young Escort!"
Escort Liang's expression changed drastically. He did not expect Lin Yu to agree.
"Alright, Young Escort is young and promising, but I can only give you forty thousand taels.”"I want it delivered to the Dragon Guarding Mountain Villa within three days." Xu Si looked at Lin Yu and smiled.”
"80,000 taels, not a single cent less." Lin Yu sneered at Xu Si and said,"Master Xu, once this news is released, I'm in a very dangerous situation. We're eating a knife's edge."”
Xu Si's expression was uncertain. Then, he smiled and said,"Sixty thousand taels."
"Deal!"
Lin Yu smiled and said," The deposit is 10,000 taels. Send it to Fuwei Bodyguard Agency first. Hand over the goods to me now. Also, I want to do business with Master Xu."”
"Young Escort Leader, what business do you have?”Xu Si said with a smile.
"Old Master Xu probably doesn't know martial arts. Safety is a big issue.”Lin Yu chuckled.
"Hmph, with me by your side, Old Master Xu will be safe.”The white-robed man behind Xu Si snorted coldly.
"May I ask who you are?" Lin Yu looked at the man in white and smiled.
"Soul Chasing Scholar!"
The white-robed man looked down at Lin Yu.
"Young Escort Leader, this is the Soul Chasing Scholar. He is the disciple of the Seizing Scholar, the number one expert of the Ning Imperial Residence.”Xu Si introduced with a proud smile.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. So you're the disciple of the Life Stealing Scholar Sword. You inherited the sword technique of the Ming family.”Lin Yu cupped his fists casually.
"Hmph, Young Escort Leader Lin can give it a try.”Soul-chasing Scholar snorted coldly.
"Alright, I want to give it a try, but I like to gamble. Soul Chasing Scholar, let's make a bet. I'll stand here. If you can pierce through my body, you win. I'll give you thirty thousand taels.”Lin Yu chuckled.
"Young Escort Leader Lin, are you seeking death?”Soul Chasing Scholar sneered.
"Pardon me for being blunt, but your spiritual cultivation is very weak. I've practiced the Golden Bell Shield for a period of time, and it's enough to block your sword.”Lin Yu smiled.
"You're courting death!"
When the Soul Chasing Scholar heard Lin Yu say that his cultivation was trash, he immediately felt murderous.
"Do you dare to play?" Lin Yu said disdainfully.
Soul Chasing Scholar's expression was gloomy as he looked at Xu Si.
"Since Young Escort Leader is in such a good mood, you can accompany Young Escort Leader to gamble.”Xu Si smiled and said,"It's just that swords and sabers have no eyes. Young Escort Leader, don't blame me if your kung fu isn't good enough."”
"Haha... Uncle Liang, if anything happens to me, go back and tell my father the truth.”Lin Yu laughed. Seeing that the fish had taken the bait, he was instantly interested.
"Young escort leader…You can't." Escort Liang was still worried about Lin Yu. If something happened to Lin Yu, how would he explain it to Lin Zhennan?
Lin Yu ignored Escort Liang and went to the center of the courtyard. He stood there and looked at Soul Chasing Scholar with provocation.
"Clang!"
