Mingxi looked at the two beautiful women and one handsome uncle, all three of whom wore warm, gentle smiles, as if they were about to offer food to Tang Sanzang.
Were they preparing a honey trap for her?
“Are you here for the Thousand Stele Forest? I’ve already discussed this with my Bai Yujing.
Oh, right, Bai Yujing is the official name I gave to Gu Guai Zhen Guan.
From now on, it will release one pass each week, meaning a total of four passes per month. Holders of these passes can enter the Thousand Stele Forest once and freely pick one natural treasure from within.
I already handed all of this month's passes to the Principal this morning. Didn't he tell you?”
The three of them hadn't even said anything before Mingxi's words choked them.
What passes?!
That old Principal never mentioned it!
No!
The Principal rushed to Yun Gong Film City the moment he received news of a secret realm rift appearing there today. Was he ever that kind-hearted before?
Could it be that he just didn't want to talk about this?
It's over!
That super SSS fire-resistant plant must be gone!
Yin Jiuheng, who thoroughly understood his Principal's character, swallowed the rising metallic taste, cleared his throat, and put on a cunning merchant's smile.
“Mingxi, isn't one pass a week a bit too few?”
“Few?” Mingxi narrowed her eyes with a smile, “Then let's just not do it. Bai Yujing is actually very unwilling anyway.”
If it weren't for the fact that the Thousand Stele Forest was repeatedly said to be Immortal University's territory, she wouldn't have bothered to persuade Bright Crystal.
“Guwo.”
Eat them.
Yin Jiuheng immediately felt the killing intent from a certain Gu Guai Zhen Guan.
Bright Crystal was not in a very good mood at this moment because it had realized that it had made Mingxi spend a lot of money!
Although Mingxi thought it was her own fault.
It thought so too.
But the other six clearly didn't think so; their expressions of disdain were unconcealed.
It even overheard that fish with a significant brain problem secretly conspiring with that Asura, asking if they should engrave the words 'prodigal son' on its forehead.
They were bullying the transcendent too much!
It was already in a bad mood, and now these ugly creatures coveting its small garden had delivered themselves to its doorstep!
Hehe, what convenient food.
“Don't eat everything. You're a Gu Guai Zhen Guan, not a gluttonous beast, and they don't taste good; you'll easily get a stomach ache.”
Mingxi stroked its fur.
Bright Crystal: “...” What's a gluttonous beast?
Yin Jiuheng and the other two: “...”
It's great that we don't taste good.
Hehe.
Mingxi looked at the three again, “Vice-Principals, Dean Zhu, there's no room for negotiation on this matter. Instead of trying to wear me down here, you should talk to the Principal about how to distribute these four passes.”
It wasn't that Mingxi was unwilling to give more, or that she begrudged those natural treasures, but the natural treasures in the Thousand Stele Forest were also limited. If everyone rushed in and plundered them, it wouldn't be conducive to sustainable development.
Moreover, although Bright Crystal... didn't like the Thousand Stele Forest, it had a strong possessive desire for it.
So, until its mood improved, Mingxi would absolutely not bring up the matter of handing over the Thousand Stele Forest to the school.
Everything has a first-come, first-served basis.
Before the Thousand Stele Forest became part of Immortal University, it had already been Bright Crystal's territory.
Bright Crystal didn't charge them land acquisition fees, right?
Hmm, this reason is quite sufficient.
As Mingxi's thoughts jumped, Mia Jacqueline, Yin Jiuheng, and Zhu Meng exchanged glances, smiling wryly in resignation.
They all saw that Mingxi was deflecting the problem, but they had no choice but to follow her lead.
This child was truly too difficult to deal with.
“Guwo.”
Hearing Bright Crystal's words, Mingxi's hand, which was preparing to bid farewell to Yin Jiuheng and the other two, slowly lowered.
She grabbed the little fierce beast off her head, “Are you sure? Is it because of what just happened? I told you it wasn't your fault, it was my command error.”
Bright Crystal had actually just proposed that it wanted to sell passes.
Bright Crystal snorted, turning its head away to avoid Mingxi's gaze.
“Guwo, Guwo!”
I know, I just want to experience the joy of making money!
Its expression was fierce, and its tone was also fierce.
It was just that the crystal on its waist inexplicably turned red.
This...
Mingxi smiled: “Okay, I'll listen to you.”
She said, looking at Yin Jiuheng and the other two, who had already been translated by their respective pet beasts.
“Two Vice-Principals, Dean Zhu, you've heard it too, so do you have any thoughts?”
The three exchanged glances again, and after a silent exchange of looks, the most cunning Yin Jiuheng spoke:
“Mingxi, we won't dispute the ownership of the Thousand Stele Forest with you.
It's understandable that Gu Guai Zhen Guan wants to sell passes, as whether anyone else can enter the Thousand Stele Forest now truly depends entirely on its will. freeωebnovēl.c૦m
But the number and price of selling passes cannot be decided by you. How about that?”
Mingxi scoffed coldly.
“Sorry, no how.”
How audacious! Their tone was so docile, yet not a single word was pleasant to hear.
Saying they wouldn't dispute ownership, wasn't that just trying to remind her that the Thousand Stele Forest's ownership belonged to Immortal University?
Saying it was understandable that Bright Crystal wanted to sell passes, wasn't that just mocking its domineering and unreasonable nature?
The last sentence was even more outrageous, but what 'but'? What right do you have to use 'but'? Where do you get the nerve to make a turn!
Mingxi, in a fit of anger, got angry for a moment.
She picked up Bright Crystal, meeting its large eyes that hadn't grasped Yin Jiuheng's malicious intent.
Fierce as it was, Bright Crystal had actually not been exposed to much of society's dangers, other than being suppressed.
She was good at teachable moments. In front of Yin Jiuheng, she dissected and explained every sentence and every word of Yin Jiuheng's to it.
And Emerald Green, who had truly experienced society's dangers, also felt that its big brother was too 'pure', and occasionally added explanations from the side (spreading gloom).
“...Vice-Principal Yin's words are a psychological tactic, a form of PUA. His goal is actually very clear: he wants to get as many passes as possible, but he doesn't want to spend too much money.
This is a typical case of wanting to have your cake and eat it too, understand?
So, how about we don't sell them?”
Yin Jiuheng had never seen anything like this.
What was the difference between this and stripping him naked in public?
Mingxi, you wretched child!
Mia and Zhu Meng felt like they had escaped a disaster.
That was close!
Fortunately, they weren't the ones who volunteered to be the 'teaching case' just now!
Who would have thought that Mingxi was not only shrewd and intelligent but also so unconventional?
“Guwo!”
And after listening to Mingxi and Emerald Green's 'duet', Bright Crystal was utterly furious!
It bared a mouthful of large, sharp teeth, their eerie, dark color making anyone who saw them tremble with fear.
The murderous intent towards Yin Jiuheng was undisguised in its fierce eyes! fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
If Mingxi hadn't held it firmly, Yin Jiuheng would have been the second Hai Xiaofu.
Yin Jiuheng: “...”
A world where only he was hurt had been achieved!
He tried to argue, “I absolutely did not mean what you said!”
