"I"m here to negotiate with you on behalf of the Yao family. " Yao GE quickly explained.
"Eh? What do you want to talk about? We only lack service personnel now, so if anyone from your family wants to work part-time, I can make the decision. After all, your Yao family"s little face is not bad!" Cheng Wu laughed evilly. The expression on his face was extremely wretched, causing Yao GE"s heart to palpitate non-stop. Of course, it was because he was scared!
"No! It"s not that someone from our Yao family wants to work part-time, I"m here on behalf of the Yao family to discuss with you about the great elder and the others. I hope you can be magnanimous and let them go! We"ll do our best to fulfill any condition you have as long as it"s within our power. " Yao GE said in a very polite and respectful manner.
"I see! I can"t make the decision on this matter!" Cheng Wu touched his chin and said with a troubled expression. His expression was extremely conflicted.
"Then who can make the decision? Please introduce us to him, our Yao family will be eternally grateful to you. " Yao GE asked.
"Hehe! It"s not a problem to introduce me to you, but how are you going to thank me?" Cheng Wu asked with a devilish smile. He looked at Yao GE as if he was looking at a gold mine, and his red eyes were s.h.i.+ning.
"Just a small token of my respect." Upon hearing this, Yao GE quickly took out a storage ring and stuffed it into Cheng Wu"s hands without a sound.
Cheng Wu took the ring, and without even looking at it, he said awkwardly,""I have so many brothers! They"ve all seen it, it"s not good for me to eat it all by myself!"
When Yao GE heard that, he painfully handed another storage ring to Cheng Wu.
In reality, when he came here, he was afraid that he would encounter such a troublesome brat. Therefore, he had specially requested for some resources from the family head. What he gave Cheng Wu was about one-fifth of all the a.s.sets he had brought. Even though it was only one-fifth, it was already enough to make his heart ache. Who asked him to not even see a strand of hair of the family head!

Cheng Wu accepted the ring without any hesitation, but he still had a dissatisfied expression on his face. Yao GE had no choice but to continue giving out storage rings.
Cheng Wu only stopped accepting bribes when there were signs of cracks on Yao GE"s face. At that moment, Yao GE was in so much pain that she was about to vomit blood.
Half of the wealth he had brought! If he didn"t see the person in question, he would fly into a rage!
However, since Cheng Wu had accepted his money, he would naturally not let uncle long return empty-handed. Hence, uncle long was quickly invited down from the mountain by the Chengwu sect.
After a while.
Yao GE, uncle Long, Cheng Wu, and the others were already seated in a room in the Yao family building.
The two groups of people looked at each other in silence. They stared at each other, and no one spoke first.
Since Yao GE did not take the initiative to speak, uncle long was naturally not in a hurry.
Seeing the middle-aged man leisurely drinking tea and eating snacks, Yao GE"s expression cracked again. He could not understand how these people could be so calm. Were they not curious about how he wanted to negotiate with them? Yao GE couldn"t help but Mutter to himself.
In fact, uncle long and the others were not really curious. To them, no matter what method Yao GE used to negotiate with them, the result would be the same! That was, if they were not satisfied, it would be useless even if the head of the Yao family came personally.
"May I ask how I should address you?" After a long while, Yao GE finally spoke. However, he did not recognize uncle long. Otherwise, he would not have asked this question.
"You can call me uncle long!" Uncle long said with a faint smile. He didn"t care that others knew his ident.i.ty. In fact, he didn"t want to hide it from anyone.
"Uncle long?" Yao GE was speechless. The other party had actually asked him to call him uncle long. Was he being taken advantage of?
"Yes, good girl! If you have anything to say, just say it directly! I hate people who beat around the bush. " Uncle long took his question as a yes and smiled in satisfaction.
This ... Was she really treating him like a child? Yao GE was a little depressed, but now was obviously not the time to be calculative. He also listened to uncle Long"s suggestion and said straightforwardly,""Uncle long, the head of the family sent me here to negotiate with you."
"Mm, I know. Tell me your thoughts!" Uncle long said indifferently.
"We ... Would like to redeem first elder and the others. We hope you can be lenient and state any conditions you have. As long as it is within our means, we will definitely not disappoint you." After his depression, Yao GE said very respectfully. It was his fault for not being able to see through the other party"s depths!
"Your Yao family will definitely be able to do it. It just depends on whether you are willing to part with it or not." Uncle long didn"t beat around the bush, because he had already thought of a way to deal with it.
"What?" Yao GE was confused by uncle Long"s words. Did he agree?
Seeing Yao GE"s confusion, uncle long gave Cheng Wu a look. Cheng Wu understood and took out a thin piece of paper, placing it in front of Yao GE.
Yao GE lowered her head to take a look, and her heart immediately jumped in fear!
Oh my G.o.d! What was written on it?
Was he seeing things?
That piece of paper was densely filled with all kinds of items. The big ones were hard to find and were priceless. The small ones were ordinary medicinal herbs. There was everything! However, even if they were ordinary medicinal herbs, their value would still be considerable, because the quant.i.ty was too large!
Yao GE picked up the piece of paper with trembling hands. After reading it carefully, her face turned pale. Could this be the other party"s condition? He didn"t dare to think further.
However, uncle long had helped him confirm it.
"Elder Yao GE, as long as the Yao family is willing to hand over the items on this list, I can return the first elder and the others to you. Otherwise, they can only earn money in my Yao family building to redeem themselves. I will only let them leave when they have earned enough of these items. However, I have to make things clear first. There is interest on these items. The longer this drags on, the more they will owe me, and the time they will leave will be even more uncertain." Uncle long said casually, as if he was saying "the weather is good today".
After Yao GE heard uncle long "s" warning ", her heart started to beat faster, and cold sweat started to drip down her body. She had to admit that these people were really ruthless!
If the Yao family didn"t pay the ransom to redeem the first elder and the others, their reputation would be ruined! If the Yao family were to take the money to redeem their people, then the Yao family"s strength would be greatly damaged. Therefore, no matter what they did, it didn"t seem like they would be able to gain anything!
At this thought, Yao GE became even more confused!
Could it be that the Yao family had some deep enmity with this uncle long? Otherwise, why would uncle long have his eyes on the Yao family?
Thinking of this, Yao GE gathered her courage and asked,""Uncle long, I wonder if the Yao family has offended you in any way in the past?"
"If I don"t have it, I can"t ask for compensation from you, right?" Uncle long said faintly after hearing Yao GE"s words.
"I don"t mean it that way. Please don"t misunderstand, uncle long." Hearing uncle Long"s displeasure, Yao GE hurriedly said this and put himself in the position of a junior, hoping that uncle long would not hold it against him if he said something wrong.
"Forget it, I won"t make things difficult for you. Go back and tell your family head to give me the compensation I want, and I"ll let him go! Otherwise, he"ll just have to wait for the Yao clan"s Grand Elder to be listed in my Yao clan tower!" Uncle long glanced at Yao GE, who was in fear and trepidation, and said in an understanding manner.
"Little Cheng, see the guest out!" Uncle long said. Then, without waiting for Yao GE"s response, he stood up and left.
When Cheng Wu saw this, he looked at Yao GE with a smile and said,""Elder Yao, please! Hurry up and send the compensation over so that the Yao family"s Grand Elder and the others will suffer less. So, you should hurry back to the Yao family! Stop wasting time. "
After he finished speaking, Cheng Wu brought Yao GE out of the Yao family building as if he was shooing a fly.
Yao GE had no choice but to leave.
Uncle long left the Yao family building and went straight back to the Leng family"s main residence. At this moment, the first elder, who was sitting in the garden and chatting, saw that uncle long was in a good mood, so he couldn"t help but tease,""Uncle long, did you get your wish?"
"Soon!" Uncle long said with a smile, his face full of pride. There was nothing that uncle long couldn"t do!
"Uncle long! I suggest that you don"t be happy too early. The old man of the Yao family is very stingy, and he might not be willing to spend so much money to redeem the first elder and the others. " The master of the ning family couldn"t bear to see uncle long so proud, so he couldn"t help but want to pour cold water on him.
"It doesn"t matter! He spent money to redeem her, and I took advantage of it. Even if he didn"t spend money, I wouldn"t suffer a loss. At most, I"ll just let those Yao family people earn money for me!" Uncle long said nonchalantly. After all, he wouldn"t suffer any losses no matter which outcome it was. Besides, if the Yao family really couldn"t bear to part with the money, then it was none of his business! In this way, the Yao family"s face would be lost by themselves.
"Yes, it"s more realistic to let the Yao family earn money for you, because based on my understanding of that old man, he will never agree to give you any compensation before your Yao family"s building opens for business. That dead thing is the type of person who won"t shed tears until he sees the coffin! To put it bluntly, he"s asking for a beating!" The head of the ning family understood, and the first elder, who also understood the head of the Yao family, nodded in agreement.
And just as the head of the ning family had predicted, the Yao family had no reaction before the opening of the Yao family building.
On the official opening day of the Yao clan tower, Leng ruoxue and the rest had yet to come down from the mountain when they heard the silver rats report that there were quite a number of people at the foot of the mountain. When they arrived at the Yao clan tower, they could see that there were not just a lot of people! It was clearly a sea of people ...
