"Chen Jiu, since you're so stubborn, then bring me to check your assets," Mu Lan finally said bitterly.
"Okay, come with me …" Under Chen Jiu's signal, Chen Jiu led the group to the courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion. At this time, there were hundreds of carriages filled with assets. There were land deeds, Elemental Energy Pills, and some treasures and jewelry. It could be said that they filled the entire courtyard.
Time was tight, and the Chen Clan couldn't take out so much cash. Some things couldn't be sold, so they could only be used as money.
"Uh, how much are these pearls worth?" Mu Lan casually looked through them, then picked up a large pearl and immediately asked.
"Reporting to Fairy, this pearl is worth at least ten thousand Elemental Energy Pills," Zhao Sankui quickly said.
"Why does it look like it's worth a thousand?" Mu Lan raised her eyebrows, which immediately made the other three aristocratic families laugh. Three of the family heads even nodded and said, "Fairy has a good eye, this pearl is only worth a thousand!"
"Nonsense, you're all talking nonsense. This pearl has a glossy luster, it's worth at least ten thousand!" The brothers of the Chen Clan couldn't help but become anxious.
"A thousand, we'll pay as much as you want!" The three aristocratic families laughed happily, trying to suppress the Chen Clan.
"How many is this? If it's a thousand each, then see how much we're missing. We'll calculate it together later, "Mu Lan sneered and ordered Zhao Sankui to check, then she walked to the next carriage.
"Uh, there's something wrong with this batch of Elemental Energy Pills. We'll discount it by eighty percent," Mu Lan immediately said unhappily when she arrived in front of the carriage of Elemental Energy Pills.
"What? You're discounting it by eighty percent with just one sentence? Do you really think that the Chen Clan is blind? "Chen Jiu was also very unconvinced.
"What? Why don't we let the other family heads take a look? Could it be that a brat like you has better eyes than them? "Mu Lan wasn't in a hurry, and directly looked at the other three family heads.
"Fairy is right. There is indeed a problem with this batch of Origin Power Pills. At most, it's worth eighty percent of the original price." The three Clan Heads were very cooperative, and immediately agreed.
"Hmph, let's continue to look at the next one. Aiyo, why does this batch of silk fabric seem to be old goods …" Mu Lan was truly infuriating. It was clearly newly woven silk fabric, but he insisted that it was old goods. Under the affirmation of the other three aristocratic families, the Chen family was speechless and unable to refute.
Just like that, carts after carts of goods were destroyed. In the end, the Chen Family's goods were destroyed by seventy to eighty percent. It was simply not enough.
Mu Lan smiled as he looked at Chen Jiu and said, "Chen Jiu, could it be that your family has no money? If you don't have money, beg this fairy, and this fairy can consider letting you go. "
"You can beg me. I'll give you money," Qian Xiangyi interjected.
"Jiu 'er, people under the eaves have no choice but to lower their heads. A good man knows when to yield and when to stand tall …" The group of Chen brothers could only admit that they were unlucky and tried to persuade him.
"Hmph, don't even think about it." Chen Jiu took out three promissory notes on the spot and threw them to Mu Lan. "Here, we're even now."
"What is this?" Mu Lan took a look and was immediately amused. "Eh, it's actually the promissory notes of Wang Chi, Li Bao, and Sun Dong. If I remember correctly, they should belong to your family, right?"
"This … Fairy, don't listen to greedy words. These promissory notes are fake. We announced it yesterday, and they don't count." The other three Clan Heads quickly tried to persuade her.
"Fake? Yesterday, under the watchful eyes of the public, the three young masters of the aristocratic families wrote the promissory notes in front of the whole city. You actually said that they are fake? Don't think that Fairy is easy to fool. "Chen Jiu said in front of everyone," Mu Lan, don't forget why the grudge between you and me started. "
"Hmph, is this true?" Mu Lan couldn't help glaring at Zhao Sankui.
"I've indeed heard of such a thing." Zhao Sankui didn't dare lie.
"If that's the case, then when will you three Clan Heads repay your debt?" Mu Lan looked coldly at the three Clan Heads.
"Fairy, this … please forgive us. Our families don't have that much cash." The three family heads had bitter expressions on their faces, as if they had been wronged.
"Even if you don't have cash, you still have goods. Your families won't be lacking in goods like the one just now." Chen Jiu loudly reminded them.
"That's right. It's the one you saw just now. Based on the price just now, you should hurry back and prepare it. Get it for me in ten days. Otherwise, hmph, you know how powerful our universe Academy is," Mu Lan ordered unhappily.
"This …" The three Clan Heads were even more sullen. They had lifted up a rock, but in the end, they still ended up smashing their own feet. If they had known earlier, they wouldn't have worked so hard just now.
"What? Could it be that you didn't hear fairy's words? "Zhao Sankui sternly threatened.
"Fairy, please be merciful. We'll kneel to you." The three Clan Heads were all virtuous and prestigious, and they were also willing to kneel. If they continued to pay like this, they would lose over half of their family's wealth. They really couldn't afford it.
"If you owe money, you have to pay it back. Even if you kneel until you die, I'll still take the money that should be taken." Mu Lan heartlessly said, completely shattering the three Clan Heads' dreams. Kneeling and begging wasn't something that just anyone could do.
"Miss, we're begging you. Can you save us?" The three Clan Heads were helpless. They could only change their target and kneel to Qian Xiangyi.
"Hey, I don't even know you. Why should I save you?" Qian Xiangyi was too lazy to bother with them. That made the three Clan Heads even more depressed, almost angering them to death.
Chen Jiu wasn't begging them, but they had to make them beg. They were so angry that they begged, but they refused. Just what kind of world was this?
"Alright, I've already finished counting the money. You can all leave. But Chen Jiu, you stay behind." Mu Lan finally ordered.
"Haha, let's go …" Chen Tianhe laughed and brought his people back. As he walked, he even made some sarcastic remarks. "These days, some people really are cheap … but in the end, they won't have a good ending …"
"Chen Tianhe, who are you talking about?" The other three Clan Heads glared at him furiously.
"I'm talking about who's cheap." Chen Tianhe wasn't the slightest bit afraid.
"You … just wait and see." The three Clan Heads flicked their sleeves and left.
In the courtyard of the City Lord Manor, Zhao Sankui had also been sent away, but Qian Xiangyi refused to leave no matter what. Mu Lan was helpless. She couldn't help but coldly stare at Chen Lan as she said in a strange tone, "Chen Jiu, this is your servant girl, right? She's pretty pretty, but you brought her here today to show off your strength?"
