118: C118 Manor Lord Li

C118 Manor Lord Li

For the next few days, a close investigation has been going on.

The Soul Stone itself was a very small ore, and it was very small in the Linghai Giant City. This meant that as long as one spent enough time and energy, they would be able to find out its origin and whereabouts.

Theoretically speaking, that was the case.

However, in reality, they had encountered many unexpected twists and turns.

"Great Shopkeeper, I have investigated all the Soul Stones in the market and found out every single one of them. Apart from a small amount of consumption and personal purchases, most of the remaining Soul Stones can be found to have a reasonable flow and usage. There are no abnormalities. . . "

Shopkeeper Yang came to Chu Yun with a large pile of information. After a moment of silence, he sighed and said, "I am willing to be punished for not doing my job well. "

"Are you sure it is all?"

Chu Yun frowned.

"I am not sure. . . "

Shopkeeper Yang thought for a while and shook his head. "I have been thinking about it for the past two days. Maybe there will be some mines in the market. They belong to some individuals since a long time ago. They have never been transferred to the outside world. If that is the case, we will not be able to find them. "

Chu Yun heard this and couldn't help but be silent for a moment. He nodded and said, "It is indeed possible. After all, the matter of humans colluding with demons and devils has been going on for many years in Linghai Giant City. If one doesn't have a stable income of Soul Stones and keeps buying them outside, it will be really inconvenient. However, if that's the case, this clue will be cut off. "

"Not necessarily!"

Shopkeeper Yang thought for a moment and said, "Great Shopkeeper, maybe you can go somewhere and try your luck. "

"Where?"

Chu Yun raised his eyebrows.

"Tianxia Money Shop!"

Shopkeeper Yang explained, "Great Shopkeeper, you might not know this, but there are many mountains in Linghai Giant City, but there are not many mines. Therefore, basically no major powers are willing to spend manpower and resources to search for mines. Those who do this job are some small merchant guilds, as well as some specialised gold diggers.

They spend their wallets to go down a mountain, and then try their luck to find mines in there. If they are lucky enough to find a valuable mine, they will mine it themselves.

However, because mining required a large amount of money, and the amount of gold diggers was very small, after digging a valuable mine, these gold diggers would often go to Tianxia Money Shop to borrow money to mine and promise a certain amount of interest to Tianxia Money Shop.

And Tianxia Money Shop would not lend money for free, so when the gold diggers came, Tianxia Money Shop would also send people to investigate the ore veins they mined. After confirming the value of the ore veins, they would then decide how much money they would borrow.

Therefore, most of the mines in the Linghai Giant City were excavated by the gold diggers. The Tianxia Money Shop had records of them. If we can get help from the Tianxia Money Shop, we will be able to know how many Soul Stone mines there are in the Linghai Giant City, as well as their specific location. "

After saying that, Chu Yun's eyes lit up. He stood up and patted Shopkeeper Yang's shoulder, "Alright, Old Yang, you have put in a lot of effort!"

"Great Shopkeeper, you flatter me. . . "

Shopkeeper Yang waved his hand modestly.

"Alright, I will go to Tianxia Money Shop now. I believe they will give me face. "

Chu Yun said, got up and left.

. . .

Tianxia Money Shop, VIP room.

"Manor Master Lee , sorry for disturbing you, but I have something to ask of you. "

Chu Yun came to the VIP room and cupped his hands towards a smiling middle-aged man.

"Boss Chu is too polite. Please take a seat. "

Manor Master Lee smiled and made an inviting gesture to Chu Yun. He then took the opportunity to sit on the armchair.

Two maids went forward and poured a cup of hot tea for the two of them.

Manor Master Lee held the teacup in one hand and the lid in the other. He gently fiddled with the tea. He smiled and said, "May I know why Boss Chu came here?"

"To tell you the truth, I have come here to ask Manor Master Lee to give me some guidance. If you don't mind, I would like to borrow the information about the mine loan from Tianxia Money Shop. "

Chu Yun cupped his hands and said straightforwardly.

"Oh?"

Manor Master Lee raised his eyebrows and said: "Boss Chu wants to see the mines in the city? What is it about?"

"Soul Stone. "

Chu Yun replied.

After saying that, Manor Master Lee 's expression paused for a moment. Although he quickly covered it up, Chu Yun still noticed the unusual expression on his face.

Chu Yun remained calm and asked with a smile, "Manor Master Lee , is there anything wrong with this Soul Stone?"

"No. . . "

Manor Master Lee shook his head and smiled. He took a sip of tea and said, "I am just curious. I don't know why Boss Chu wants to borrow the information about the Soul Stone mine. "

It's not convenient to tell me for personal reasons," Chu Yun said. But if Manor Master Lee is willing to let me borrow it, I will definitely repay him. Maybe Manor Master Lee can also give me a price. "

. . . "Sorry. "

Manor Master Lee shook his head and put down the teacup. He said, "When Tianxia Money Shop opens its doors to do business, it must be responsible for every customer. Those customers who borrow from our bank to open the mines must not reveal their secrets. There is nothing to discuss about this. If Boss Chu has nothing else to do, you can leave now. "

“. . . ”

This straightforward rejection surprised Chu Yun.

He sat on the chair and pondered for a moment. After that, he smiled and stood up. He said, "Alright. In that case, I won't disturb you any longer. "

After saying that, Chu Yun stood up and turned around to walk out the door.

Manor Master Lee looked at Chu Yun's back. After pondering for a while, he said in a deep voice, "Boss Chu, please wait. Before leaving, I have something to say. "

"Please speak. "

Chu Yun stopped and turned around to look at Manor Master Lee .

Manor Master Lee looked at him. His eyes were calm, but there was a deep meaning hidden in them. He said, "You should not pry too much about the Soul Stone. It is not good to know too much about some things. Be careful not to attract trouble. "

. . . "Ah. "

Chu Yun smiled. The corner of his mouth curled up slightly, then he turned around and left.

After leaving Tianxia Money Shop, Chu Yun didn't stay any longer. He went straight to City Lord Mansion. He wanted to discuss this matter with Qin Wuji.

The conversation with Manor Master Lee today made Chu Yun very certain that Manor Master Lee must know something about the Soul Stone. It could even be said that there might be a direct connection between them.

Manor Master Lee had made this point very obvious. Before he left, the words Manor Master Lee said to him sounded like a threat.

Chu Yun felt that he was very close to the truth.2
