Traveling through time and space to become the richest woman and falling in love with the young mast

Dongfang Qingmo said softly, with a determined light in his eyes, "I want to give myself a chance and try it. Even if I fail in the end, at least I won't regret it."

Qian Shuishui looked at Dongfang Qingmo's determined eyes. She knew that no matter what, no amount of persuasion could change Dongfang Qingmo's decision.

So, she sighed helplessly, "Okay, since you have decided, I will support you."

"Thank you, Shuishui." Dongfang Qingmo looked at Qian Shuishui gratefully, and then continued, "Let's continue our journey tomorrow..."

"Yeah." Qian Shuishui nodded, then suddenly thought of something and frowned, asking, "But can he bear it?"

After all, Huangfu Yi is in very poor health now.

Dongfang Qingmo nodded. "I've asked the doctor, and he's allowed to take us along. Otherwise, he'd probably be dead by the time we come back."

"Okay." Qian Shuishui replied.

The next morning, before it was fully light, Dongfang Qingmo and Qian Shuishui quietly left the inn. They wrapped themselves up like dumplings, asked the innkeeper about the location of the black market, and went there immediately.

As soon as they entered the black market, Qian Shuishui looked around, and Dongfang Qingmo walked in front.

People on the road are in a hurry.

"Qing Mo, what should we buy?" Qian Shuishui twisted her neck. This black clothes was too stuffy and a bit uncomfortable to wear.

Qing Mo only asked her to follow him to the black market and did not tell her what to do.

"I want to offer a reward." Dongfang Qingmo curled his lips.

They only have half a month. If they can't find the Nine Yang Grass, we'll offer a reward. Every extra person means more strength.

"Reward!" Qian Shuishui rubbed her chin and nodded repeatedly, expressing her agreement: "That's a good idea!"

Dongfang Qingmo glanced at the passersby and thought to himself, "Hmm...we need to find someone to ask, where is the Bounty House?!"

Bounty House, as the name suggests, is a place where people can pay others to do things for them.

"That's easy, just grab anyone and ask." Qian Shuishui shrugged, then reached out and grabbed a passerby without any hesitation.

"What are you doing? What are you doing?" The person who was pulled was obviously frightened, looking at Qian Shuishui and Dongfang Qingmo with horror.

Dongfang Qingmo quickly stepped forward, an apologetic smile on his face, and said to the man, "Sorry, we just wanted to ask you where the Bounty House is."

At the same time, she silently gave a thumbs up to Qian Shuishui for her boldness and straightforwardness in her heart.

The man looked them up and down, then pointed in a direction.

"Thank you!" Dongfang Qingmo thanked him politely, then pulled Qian Shuishui in the direction the other party pointed.

Soon after, they arrived in front of a nondescript-looking small building with two guards standing at the door.

"Qing Mo, is this shabby little building the Bounty Building? Have we been cheated?" Qian Shuishui frowned, looking at the dilapidated little building in front of her in disbelief, her heart full of doubts.

After all, she had never been to the black market and always thought that the Bounty House should be a rather grand building.

Dongfang Qingmo couldn't help but wonder if he had come to the wrong place, and thought to himself, "Is this really the legendary bounty house?"

Although she did not believe in judging a book by its cover, the dilapidated building before her made it hard for her to imagine any connection between it and the Bounty House.

Perhaps, this pavilion hides some secrets unknown to outsiders?

With this idea in mind, Dongfang Qingmo decided to step forward and inquire about the situation.

She walked up to the two guards at the door and asked cautiously, "Excuse me, is this the Bounty House?"

The two guards looked at each other, and then one of them stretched out his hand and rubbed his fingers towards Dongfang Qingmo.

Dongfang Qingmo immediately understood what the other party meant. She quickly took out a silver note with a face value of ten taels from her arms and stuffed it into the guard's sleeve.

After receiving the bribe, the guard smiled with satisfaction, nodded, and said, "This is indeed the bounty building. Are you here to post a bounty mission or to claim the bounty?"

Dongfang Qingmo answered without hesitation: "Reward."

Seeing this, another guard immediately turned around and went into the pavilion to report the news.

Dongfang Qingmo took the opportunity to chat with the guards who remained there, trying to learn more about the Bounty House.

After all, only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle!

"Brother, how is this reward generally divided?" Dongfang Qingmo asked curiously.

"It depends on the severity of the matter." The guard answered nonchalantly, his eyes occasionally scanning the street as if he was looking for something.

"What if you're looking for something?" Dongfang Qingmo continued to ask.

"There are common and rare ones." The guard answered absentmindedly.

"What about rare items? For example, rare herbs, how much silver would it cost?" Dongfang Qingmo kept asking.

"At least three hundred thousand taels, no upper limit." The guard's tone was filled with disdain.

When Dongfang Qingmo heard this number, his eyes suddenly lit up and he was secretly delighted.

The money in my hand is enough to pay the reward.

"Oh~" Dongfang Qingmo's eyes rolled around, and a sly smile appeared under her veil.

After a while, the guard came back and asked Dongfang Qingmo and Qian Shuishui to follow him.

The two followed him all the way to a cellar.

He just pushed it lightly and the cellar door opened.

"There's a different world!" Qian Shuishui couldn't help but exclaimed at the scene in front of her.

"Don't judge a book by its cover, and don't judge the depth of the sea by its depth!" Dongfang Qingmo muttered to himself.

She said the building couldn't be so shabby, and it turned out there was a basement.

Walking down the stone steps, it is also very bright below, with luminous pearls lined up on both sides, illuminating the entire space.

Qian Shuishui couldn't help but sigh: "It's really big in here!"

The guard led them to a stone gate, stopped and said, "The person in charge is inside, you can go in." After that, he turned and left, ready to go back to guard the gate.

Dongfang Qingmo said to his back: "Thank you."

The two pushed the door open and a middle-aged man walked out. He looked Dongfang Qingmo and Qian Shuishui up and down, and asked with a puzzled tone, "Are you the ones who are going to issue the reward?"

Dongfang Qingmo nodded and replied, "Yes."

Middle-aged man: "What's your name?"

Dongfang Qingmo: "Excuse me, your surname is Ye."

Qian Shuishui also said, "My last name is Ye too."

Dongfang Qingmo looked back at Qian Shuishui, only to see Qian Shuishui wink at her.

How's that?! My reaction was quick enough, wasn't it?!

Dongfang Qingmo smiled helplessly, there was nothing he could do to her.

"Mr. Ye, what is the reward you are offering?" the middle-aged man asked.

"Nine Yang Divine Grass!" Dongfang Qingmo slowly uttered three words.

"You want to offer a reward for the Nine Yang Grass?" The middle-aged man, who was about to sit down, suddenly stopped and stood up straight with a look of surprise on his face.

Dongfang Qingmo nodded, "I'm willing to pay a high price."

The middle-aged man was silent for a moment. "Nine Sun Grass is extremely rare and not easy to find. However, since you are so sincere, I can help you post a reward. But whether you can find it depends on luck."

I can take this job, but it’s hard to say whether I can succeed.

Dongfang Qingmo nodded, indicating that he understood the risks involved.

Qian Shuishui also echoed: "We know what's going on."

Seeing the two men's firm attitude, the middle-aged man stopped talking and asked, "How much silver would you two gentlemen like to pay?"

Dongfang Qingmo did not answer directly, but asked: "What are the rules here?"

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Of course, the more the better."

Dongfang Qingmo cursed the old fox in his heart, but continued to ask calmly, "What are the details?"

The middle-aged man's smile widened, and his tone was a little proud: "Well, it depends on your sincerity."

Dongfang Qingmo was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked, "Three hundred thousand taels?"

The middle-aged man was slightly surprised, obviously not expecting her to be able to tell the lowest price so accurately.

He thought to himself that this girl seemed to be quite knowledgeable about the market and had probably done her homework long ago.

However, since the other party has already figured out the bottom line, he has to find a way to raise the price.

So, the middle-aged man shook his head in embarrassment: "Not enough..."

Qian Shuishui couldn't help rolling her eyes, thinking that this middle-aged man was really greedy.

Dongfang Qingmo turned his gaze towards the middle-aged man and responded calmly, "Oh? Then give me a price. Let me see."

She knew very well that she had to take the initiative in her own hands, otherwise she would easily be led by the other party.

Only by letting the other party make an offer first can she judge whether it is reasonable based on the actual situation and make a corresponding counter-offer.

Seeing this, the middle-aged man hesitated for a moment and finally reported a number: "Six hundred thousand taels!"

He was secretly happy, thinking that he could make more profit this time.

Dongfang Qingmo secretly cursed him as a black-hearted businessman.

If the price goes up, give her half the price!!

If she knew who the big boss behind the scenes was, she would definitely do her best to trip him up when she returned to Hyunjoong!!!

Huangfu Yi was meditating on the bed when he suddenly felt an itch on the tip of his nose.

"A-choo~ A-choo~"

Strange, who is missing him...

Dongfang Qingmo pretended to think and said in a deep voice, "We can't afford this amount."

Qian Shuishui also nodded repeatedly in agreement, "Not that much!"

"I'm sorry," the middle-aged man said apologetically.

Dongfang Qingmo: "..."

Why don't you play by the rules? Shouldn't you lower the price next?!

So what should she do...

what to do……

By the way, try my mom’s method of buying clothes.

Dongfang Qingmo pretended to be regretful, "Well, sorry to bother you."

She pulled Qian Shuishui and walked out.

Qian Shuishui was completely confused.

Why are you leaving now?!

"Qing Mo, this??"

Before Qian Shuishui finished speaking, the middle-aged man gritted his teeth and chased after her, "Master Ye, let's talk it over. Let's both take a step back!"

They were also looking for the Nine Yang Divine Herb at the Bounty House anyway, so if they found one more, they could earn a little extra silver, so why not?!

Dongfang Qingmo's eyes flashed with a hint of joy, and then his expression returned to normal. "Oh~~ How do you withdraw?"

Dongfang Qingmo was secretly delighted in his heart, but asked calmly on the surface.

The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and said with a great determination: "I can lower the price a little, but this is my bottom line."

Dongfang Qingmo was delighted. This was exactly what she wanted, but she didn't agree immediately. Instead, she pretended to be hesitant and said, "Is this so... 350,000 taels, what do you think?"

Great! She's got the initiative! Long live mom!

"Three hundred and eighty thousand taels!" the middle-aged man sighed helplessly. "Mr. Ye, this is already the lowest price. If you are still not satisfied, then I can't do anything about it."

Dongfang Qingmo knew when to stop, smiled and nodded, saying, "If that's the case, then let's do it this way. But I hope you can find the Nine Yang Divine Grass as soon as possible."

The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief and quickly nodded in response, "Of course, of course. Please rest assured, Master Ye."

And so, the two sides reached an agreement.

"Then, when do we trade?" Dongfang Qingmo asked.

"As soon as I have any news, I will inform you, Master Ye." The middle-aged man responded, "This is not something that can be found overnight."

Dongfang Qingmo no longer hid his feelings and said directly, "I only have half a month. If I pass the deadline, there will be no chance."

After hearing this, the middle-aged man nodded slightly to show his understanding, and then said, "Do you need to pay a deposit first?"

Dongfang Qingmo took out a small stack of banknotes from his pocket without hesitation, placed them gently on the table, and said calmly, "Here is 50,000 taels. The remaining payment will be settled after the matter is settled."

Seeing this, the middle-aged man quickly took out a black and purple token from his pocket and handed it to Dongfang Qingmo respectfully, explaining, "Master Ye, this is a bounty order. Anyone holding this order can come to the Bounty Building at any time to inquire about related matters."

Qian Shuishui took the token curiously, held it in her hand, and examined it carefully. Although she didn't quite understand it, she still found it very novel.

At this time, Dongfang Qingmo asked again: "If you find the target, how are we going to get the news? You can't ask us to send people to the black market to inquire every day, right?"

The middle-aged man quickly replied, "Don't worry about that, Mr. Ye. We will arrange for someone to deliver the information to you."

"Can we receive it even if we are not in Sunset City?" Dongfang Qingmo asked.

"Of course, as long as you don't lose this bounty order." The middle-aged man answered affirmatively.

Dongfang Qingmo raised his eyebrows and exclaimed inwardly, isn't this equivalent to having a positioning system!

Finally, Dongfang Qingmo stood up and said to the middle-aged man, "Okay, that's it, we'll leave first." After that, she took Qian Shuishui and left the Bounty House.

The middle-aged man also stood up and said politely, "Mr. Ye, please take care."

After leaving the Bounty Building, Dongfang Qingmo and Qian Shuishui did not return to the inn immediately, but wandered around the black market.

As they walked around, they looked at all kinds of strange things and talked about them from time to time.
