Chapter 311: Bargaining without following the rules

Wang Ergou: “…”

"You little bastard, what the hell are you talking about!" Wang Ergou grabbed Ye Fei by the collar.

Ye Fei didn't care at all that Wang Ergou grabbed his collar. He pinched his chin fearlessly, looked up at the sky, and said calmly: "Hey, I remember that the eleventh sword move seems to be an enhanced version of the tenth move. It is much more mysterious than the tenth move, and the power when it is performed is at least five times..."

Wang Ergou hurriedly loosened Ye Fei's collar and reached out to help him straighten his messed-up collar: "Hey, Thirteen, Master was just joking with you just now. Didn't he scare you? Let's go and eat. Master will treat you to a sumptuous meal and some good wine to calm you down!"

"Don't worry, don't worry!" Ye Fei suddenly took out a small notebook from his arms: "Let me record the account first."

After saying that, Ye Fei opened the small notebook and began to write: "To Wang Ergou..."

"What did you say!" Wang Ergou shouted.

Ye Fei quickly changed his words: "Teach Master the sword technique. One move costs 250,000 spirit stones. There are ten moves in total, which costs 2.5 million spirit stones in total!"

Wang Ergou: “…”

"Do you have to keep accounts for how many sword moves you taught your master?" Wang Ergou was so angry that his beard almost stood up.

"Of course I have to keep accounts!" Ye Fei curled his lips: "Did I work hard for a whole morning in vain?"

"Boy, don't go too far!" Wang Ergou said coldly.

Ye Fei smiled disdainfully: "Haha, Master, can I be as excessive as you were back then? Who was it that charged me for accommodation when I stood outside the courtyard all night on my first day at Qianxian Sect?"

Wang Ergou: “…”

It is true that the law of nature will bring good luck to everyone, and no one will be spared by heaven...

This retribution has come as soon as it was promised!

“Ahem…” Wang Ergou coughed. “Thirteen, look, your master hasn’t treated you badly in the past few years, right? Isn’t this two hundred and fifty thousand per sword move a bit too expensive? Give your master less and give him a discount.”

"Why didn't you say so earlier!" Ye Fei spread his hands: "I have already written it down, it's hard to change it. Next time, Master, I will definitely give you a discount next time!"

Wang Ergou: “…”

"Let's go, Master, let's go have lunch!" Ye Fei said.

The corner of Wang Ergou's mouth twitched.

You little bastard, wait until I finish learning your thousand sword moves, and then I’ll show you how I’ll deal with you.

Finally, the master and disciple had a very sumptuous lunch in a top-notch tavern in Tianluo City.

When they were almost done eating, Ding Dashan suddenly came over: "Master..."

Ding Dashan first called out "Master", then immediately sat down next to Ye Fei, picked up a pair of chopsticks and put a piece of meat into his mouth, then said to Ye Fei: "Brother, many people from the Ye family have come, Uncle Ye asked you to go back quickly."

"What happened? Did someone from the Ye family bully my father and others?" Ye Fei asked.

"Not really!" Wang Ergou glared at Ye Fei. "The Ye family still dares to bully you three. Do they want to quit? I guess they are here to invite you three back to Yejia Town."

"Master is right!" Ding Dashan nodded and continued to say to Ye Fei: "Uncle Ye asked me to come to you just to see what you mean? To see if you want to go back!"

Ye Fei frowned slightly and suddenly fell silent.

Ye Fei looked at Wang Ergou and said, "Master, can you give me some advice?"

Wang Ergou suddenly became serious: "Boy, it depends on how you look at this matter. If you look at this matter from your own perspective, it is naturally much better not to go back. Because with your current development momentum, the Tianluo Ye family will only drag you down in the future and become a burden and encumbrance for you to fly higher.

However, if you look at this matter from your father and grandfather's perspective, it will naturally be different.

You have to understand that no matter what, Ye Changsheng and Ye Liting will always be members of the Tianluo Ye clan. They are different from you. You are from the Lingxu Ye clan, and they are from the Tianluo Ye clan.

Ye Changsheng and Ye Liting are living outside now. Why are they doing this? It's because Ye Changjiu kicked you out two years ago. They are fighting with the Ye family. They just want to help you vent your anger.

If you don't want to go back now, they certainly won't go back either. However, no matter what happens in the future, no matter how high or far you fly, their final destination will always be back to the Tianluo Ye family. This is called returning to one's roots, do you understand?"

"I understand!" Ye Fei nodded.

"What do you understand?" Wang Ergou asked.

Ye Fei: "Let's go back to the Ye family! I can't let my grandfather and my father accompany me wandering around outside!"

Snapped!

Wang Ergou slapped Ye Fei on the forehead.

"Ah?" Ye Fei covered his head: "What's wrong, Master, shouldn't I go back?"

Wang Ergou: "Your decision has made me look at you with a new eye. Not bad, not bad. You are a kind and righteous child!"

Ye Fei: “…”

"Then why did you hit me?" Ye Fei stared at Wang Ergou angrily.

Wang Ergou curled his lips and said, "I'm spanking you because you're such a fool. Do you know that your decision today will cost you a lot in the future? The Ye family will become a burden to you from now on, and it will be difficult for you to fly in the short term!"

After hearing what Wang Ergou said, Ye Fei was speechless.

On the contrary, he felt that it was not unfair at all that Wang Ergou slapped him.

"Haha..." Ye Fei smiled bitterly: "What else can I do? I can only let myself suffer a little and endure more hardships. I can't let my grandfather and father who raised me bear the infamy for the rest of my life!

If we don't go back now, the Ye family will definitely say that my grandfather and my father betrayed the Tianluo Ye family. Those villains are capable of anything. Even if my grandfather and my father don't say it on the surface, they must feel very uncomfortable in their hearts. "

"Think it over for yourself. Master can only help you analyze the pros and cons, but cannot help you make any decisions!" Wang Ergou was more serious than ever before: "In short, your decision today will definitely have a great impact on your future. It may not have a big impact on the final result, but it will definitely have a huge impact on the process."

"Result? Process? Master, what do you mean?" Ye Fei was a little confused.

"As long as your luck is not too bad, you will not die halfway!" Wang Ergou said to Ye Fei with a serious face: "In the future, you will eventually become the strongest swordsman on land in this star field, and even far surpass your master.

However, your decision today will completely change the time and process of your becoming the strongest swordsman. If it weren't for the burden of the Ye family, it would probably only take you about twenty years to become the strongest swordsman. But with their burden, perhaps it will take you another thirty, forty years, or even longer."

"Fuck, is the difference so big?" Ye Fei exclaimed.

"If you don't go back to the Ye family, with your current ability, it would be easy for you to earn one million spirit stones, right? Then, you will spend the one million spirit stones by yourself, but if you go back to the Ye family, you will have to share the one million spirit stones you earn with the nearly two thousand people in the Ye family." Wang Ergou spread his hands: "This kind of thing, you should understand the difference if you just use your knees to think about it!"

"Yes, Brother, why don't we just not go back!" Ding Dashan seemed to finally understand the stakes: "I'm afraid you'll die of poverty when you go back, so don't ask me to borrow money then!"

"Don't worry, I won't borrow money from you!" Ye Fei said, then stood up and strode away: "Master, you guys take your time eating, I'll go first and go home to see you!"

Wang Ergou looked at Ye Fei's back and shook his head repeatedly.

"Master, what's wrong?" Ding Dashan asked.

"It's good to be affectionate and righteous, but being too soft-hearted will be the biggest stumbling block for your brother's future growth." Wang Ergou shook his head slowly: "When I see him like this, I really love and hate him!"

"What do you love and what do you hate?" Ding Dashan asked.

"Dashan, if you were your thirteenth senior brother, would you go back?" Wang Ergou asked.

"Only a fool would go back!" Ding Dashan curled his lips, "The Ye family treats me badly, why should I go back? I can't enjoy life wherever I go with my grandfather and father!"

After saying that, he took the wine in Ye Fei's glass and drank it all, took a bite of the food first, poured another glass, and this time continued to say to Wang Ergou: "Master, do you think I am right?"

"Yes!" Wang Ergou nodded, stood up and patted Ding Dashan on the shoulder: "Is this wine delicious?"

Ding Dashan nodded: "It tastes good! Fifty-year-old Huadiao, it's really fragrant! Master, you and Brother are so mean, you hid away and had a feast without even inviting us!"

"Can you taste that this is fifty-year-old Huadiao?" Wang Ergou was obviously surprised.

"Of course!" Ding Dashan looked proud.

"Snapped!"

Wang Ergou raised his hand and slapped Ding Dashan on the forehead: "Nonsense, this is obviously a hundred years old."

"Ah?" Ding Dashan was stunned. "Master, have you been cheated? Wines that are hundreds of years old are much more fragrant than this, but this wine is considered a fine wine, of high quality. It tastes very good. It is much better than ordinary wines of the same year."

"If it tastes good, drink more!" Wang Ergou picked up a wine jug and placed it in front of Ding Dashan: "There is still half a jug here, drink it all, don't waste it."

"Haha, thank you, Master!" said Ding Dashan.

"You drink slowly first, I'm going to the toilet." After saying this, Wang Ergou turned and walked towards the back door of the tavern.

"Master, go ahead, I'll wait for you!" Ding Dashan said happily.

After a while, Ding Dashan was full and had finished all the dishes on the table and the wine in the pot. He touched his stomach and finally felt about 70% full.

At this time, the shopkeeper came over with an account book and said to Ding Dashan, "Little brother, I see you have finished eating. Please settle the bill. The total is 378 spirit stones."

"Ah?" Ding Dashan was stunned for a moment: "What on earth did my master and my senior brothers eat? Why did they eat so many spirit stones in one meal?"

Ding Dashan said casually, and immediately shook his head: "Boss, why are you in such a hurry? It's not me who's treating us today. My master has gone to the toilet. I'll pay you when he comes over!"

"No!" The shopkeeper shook his head. "Your master left a long time ago. He told me to settle the bill with you. He even packed ten jars of Hundred-Year Huadiao before he left! Those ten jars of Hundred-Year Huadiao alone cost more than two hundred spirit stones."

Ding Dashan: “…”

I drank half a pot of wine and ate some leftovers, and you still want me to pay the bill?

Forget about paying the bill, but what does it mean that you also packed up ten jars of Centennial Huadiao wine before leaving?

Are you taking me as a sucker?

Uh...

Master, you are not a human being at all!

Snapped!

Ding Dashan suddenly slammed the table.

There was a ruckus...

Four or five strong men suddenly rushed in from the back of the tavern.

The shopkeeper curled his lips in disdain: "Why, you still want to eat a free meal here!"

"Who said we were going to dine for free?" Ding Dashan curled his lips in disdain, and then shouted in a boastful tone, "I bought so much wine from you, I have to give you a discount!"

The shopkeeper nodded and winked at the sturdy men who surrounded Ding Dashan, and the sturdy men immediately took two steps back.

"Discounts are easy to talk about!" The shopkeeper curled his lips and said, "I can help you get the decimal point off. Just give me 370 spirit stones!"

"You don't have to round off the decimal point!" Ding Dashan curled his lips in disdain: "Just give me the first three hundred! I won't give you a penny less of the seventy-eight!"

Ding Dashan took out a small bag of spirit stones and slapped it on the table: "I just happened to have 78 spirit stones on me, this is the only price I can afford..."

Before Ding Dashan could finish his words, the shopkeeper suddenly waved his hand and said, "Hit me!"

Five big men rushed forward.

Ding Dashan: “…”

"Oh... Shit, if you don't agree you can still bargain."

"Ouch... you hit someone directly. What kind of thing is that? I've never seen you bargain so unruly."

"Oh, we can negotiate the price slowly. If you name me a price, I can give you a higher price. It's not like I only want 78. I was just saying that. Oh..."

"Damn, are the people in your Tianluo City so simple and honest..."

The shopkeeper: "Humph, I round off the price for you and you round it off for me, you call this bargaining? It's obvious that you want to eat and dine for free... Beat me up!"
