At this point, the old man's bright eyes turned to Jiang Yuntian's face and smiled." To be honest, it's already pretty good for you to have such extraordinary martial arts at your current age…However, please forgive me for being blunt. In my opinion, your martial arts are only slightly better than the Five Rapscallions of the Desert. If you think too highly of yourself and think that your current martial arts level is enough to roam the world…Heh…Hehehe."
As he spoke, he shook his head and said in a very contemptuous tone,"Actually, with your little ability, in my opinion, you're still far from Proud Laughing in the World…far from it!”
Jiang Yuntian's arrogance was instantly aroused by the old man's words. He sneered and said loudly,"Old mister, you followed me all the way and traveled about a thousand miles. Could it be that you were just waiting to watch this show? Or do you have something else to do?"
"This…is easy!" The old man raised his hand and touched his white beard, revealing the huge precious jade ring on his finger.
" Of course, I have something to do..." he said thoughtfully." I followed you all the way because I wanted to talk to you about an important deal. What do you think?"”
"Deal?" Jiang Yuntian asked in puzzlement. What kind of deal can I make with you?"
"It's about the transaction of your Dark Stallion!" the old man said bluntly.”
At the mention of the Dusk Stallion, he turned his head and cast a glance at the unusually handsome Dusk Stallion, and an extremely happy smile appeared on his face.
Jiang Yuntian's handsome face turned cold when he heard that he wanted to trade the Dark Stallion Horse with him.
The old man immediately waved his hand and said,"Don't put on an extremely unhappy expression at the mention of the Dusk Stallion. I'm a reasonable person. If you really want to be serious, you were the first to capture this Dusk Stallion because you were slightly luckier than me. If I had been slightly luckier and discovered this Dusk Stallion a day earlier than you, it definitely wouldn't have fallen into your hands.”
" But the truth is, I was the one who captured the Dark Stallion first," Jiang Yuntian said arrogantly." It's indeed mine now. This is the truth!"”
The old man said helplessly,""I know this, which is why I want to make a deal with you.”
"I'm sorry, old man. I never thought of selling it!" Jiang Yuntian shook his head vigorously.”
The old man did not give up." Young man, don't be so absolute. I can offer a very high price!"”
"I'm sorry! I can't sell the Dusk Stallion. It's a companion to me!”Jiang Yuntian shook his head again with a serious expression. Then, he turned around and wanted to leave.
The old man seemed to be a little angry at Jiang Yuntian's attitude. He said angrily,"Stop!"
He circled around and stood in front of Jiang Yuntian. He stood five steps away and said again,"Young man, don't be in a hurry to make a decision. Wait for me to tell you the price. Think about it before making a decision! My offer is a box of gold!”
Before he could finish his sentence, he used his mouth to gently blow on the bamboo flute, and a high-pitched monotonous note came out of the flute. Before Jiang Yuntian could figure out what this monotonous musical scale meant, he suddenly saw the camel standing quietly in the distance. It spread its four hooves and approached him as fast as the wind.
Jiang Yuntian was dumbfounded by the scene in front of him. He had always thought that camels were very slow and slow animals. However, the speed of the camel in front of him could not be described as lightning. His concept of camels was completely broken.
It was only now that he finally understood why the old man could still easily catch up to him after traveling thousands of miles in a day yesterday. He couldn't help but look at the camel in front of him curiously. However, it looked very ordinary, just like the common double-humped camel, except that its fur was very clean.
Between the camel's neck and the front hump was an exquisitely designed cushion that looked very comfortable. Between the back hump and the back hump was a leather rack used to store items. A wooden box was tightly tied to it. The wooden box was about two feet long, one foot wide, and fifteen inches high.
This camel was the mount that the yellow-clothed old man used for his daily journey.
When the camel was approaching the old man, it slowed down and stopped in front of the old man. The old man in yellow stretched out his hands and untied the tough leather rope that was tied to the wooden box. He opened the box with a bang. The box was filled with long gold ingots. Each gold ingot was three inches long and shone with a yellow light.
"How is it? Is my price high enough?" "Young man!" the old man said confidently. As long as you agree to the deal between us, this box full of gold ingots will be yours!”
To be honest, this chest of gold was definitely the largest amount of money that Jiang Yuntian had ever seen since he was born. Moreover, the old man opposite him had made it very clear that as long as Jiang Yuntian nodded and agreed to the transaction, this chest of gold would be completely his.
Faced with the old man's eager gaze, Jiang Yuntian only hesitated for a moment before shaking his head firmly.
"What do you mean? Are you worried that the gold is fake?”The old man said with an unconcerned expression," Don't worry. I hired people to spend nine months to get these gold ingots. They were first made of gold from the Wulun River and then sent to Qingyuan City to be forged into pure gold ingots. If you don't believe me, you can check them one by one.”
As he spoke, he casually picked up a gold ingot and tossed it over. He said,"Young man, catch it and take a closer look!”
Jiang Yuntian reached out and caught it. He felt that it was extremely heavy in his hand and did not look like it was fake. He examined the imprint on it again. It was the exclusive imprint of Qingyuan City's most famous " Xin De Tower." This Xin De Tower was an old shop that had been in business for more than a hundred years and had an outstanding reputation.
He carefully weighed it with his hand and observed its color. It was indeed a high-quality scarlet gold ingot. He played with the gold ingot in his hand.
"Young man, have you thought about it?”The old man stared at Jiang Yuntian and asked anxiously," What I said just now is the truth. Don't think that I'm joking with you. To be honest, I have plenty of gold at home. This amount of gold is like a drop in the ocean to me. It's not worth mentioning at all. I'm willing to offer you this price!”
As soon as the old man finished speaking, Jiang Yuntian smiled bitterly. He walked up to the old man and respectfully handed the long gold ingot to the old man.
The old man helplessly took it in his hand. His face revealed a very disappointed expression, but he still asked,"But do you think the number of gold ingots is not enough?”
"Elder, it's not that there aren't enough, it's just that there are too many!" Jiang Yuntian said sincerely.”
"Since it's not because of the amount of gold, then you really don't intend to sell it, right?"”
"Old man! " I don't know how to tell you…" He turned his head to look at the handsome Dark Stallion, and a loving smile appeared on his handsome face. It was an expression of genuine affection that came from the bottom of his heart. Jiang Yuntian looked at the Dusk Stallion with a sincere expression, causing the elegant and graceful old man who had been staring at him with a cold gaze to gradually soften his gaze, and an indescribable good impression of this young man grew from the bottom of his heart!
The yellow-robed old man seemed to have reevaluated this young man called Jiang Yuntian.
Jiang Yuntian looked at the old man with excitement and said,"You hired a lot of people and spent nearly a year to find this fine gold. You must have spent a lot of effort during this period, and this Dusk Stallion…"
He turned back to look at the Dark Stallion once more and smiled."It also took me a year to finally capture and tame it. It has always been my dream horse, and it will be my companion in the future. You will never understand how deep my feelings for it are!”
Jiang Yuntian's heartfelt words made the experienced yellow-robed old man feel deep respect in his heart. It also made the yellow-robed old man's good impression of him rise to an extremely high level.
" Old man," Jiang Yuntian continued with a gentle expression," Your gold is indeed very good, but in order to cherish the friendship between me and the Dark Stallion, I really can't part with it!，In my opinion, the sincere feelings between me and the Dark Stallion Horse are priceless and cannot be measured with money!”
"Gold is good, but affection is priceless! Have you really thought it through?" The yellow-robed old man shouted loudly. His tone was still extremely dissatisfied with not being able to buy the Dark Stallion Horse!
