Chapter 3397: middleman

"Really something?"
Liu Lang was stunned, and retracted his raised leg.
He thought that Zhong Huarong, Zhu Fangxin, and Su Zhanpeng were just paying a courtesy visit and saying some innocuous and kind words. Looking at it now, this is not the case.
"Since there is something to do, let's talk about it." After sitting down again, Liu Lang went straight to the subject.
"This... Lord Zhu, should you say it first?" Zhong Huarong, who has always liked the first to speak, opened his mouth and turned to Zhu Fangxin.
"Let's Master Su first!" Zhu Fangxin didn't accept the move and directly transitioned over Su Zhanpeng.
Su Zhanpeng had the heart to cycle around, but then he thought about it, saying it early and late, and having to say it sooner or later, it doesn't make sense to let it go.
"Then I will do it first!"
Su Zhanpeng gritted his teeth, faced Liu Lang, and slowly said, "Cangling Academy is currently experiencing a small trouble."
"What little trouble?"
Liu Lang asked curiously.
Although Su Zhanpeng kept talking about small troubles, judging from his expression, this trouble should not be small.
"I don't know, Lord Yu, I don't know the origin of Cangling Academy?" Su Zhanpeng asked Liu Lang.
"The origin of Cangling Academy? I really don't know this." Liu Lang shook his head and replied.
Because, to form an alliance with the three major forces, Liu Lang did some homework on Tianqing Palace, Inviting Yuecheng, and Cangling Academy.
But these homework are basically limited to the present, not the past.
Therefore, when it comes to how Cangling Academy came, Liu Lang really doesn't know much about it.
"The outside world has said that Cangling Academy was originally a thug trained by a strong family, and then became independent. In fact, this is a rumor."
Su Zhanpeng explained: "Cangling Academy has indeed done things for the big powers, but cooperation, and not direct cooperation, is through intermediary cooperation."
"Cooperate through an intermediary?" Liu Lang did not expect that there would be an intermediary business in the core star domain.
"Actually, at the beginning, I didn't even think about establishing Cangling Academy. It was just a group of casual cultivators who gathered together. They wanted to eat or not, drink or drink, and they had to survive. It happened that the middleman came to the door, and at first it was trivial. Just a few people did the small work, but then, the work got bigger and bigger, I could only find helpers, and then more people gathered..."
Su Zhanpeng recounted his family history.
In fact, this is not only his family history, but also the family history of Zhong Huarong and Zhu Fangxin. Zhong Huarong and Zhu Fangxin on the side listened to Su Zhanpeng's narration, and they were full of emotion.
"If there are more people, you must have a name, so there is Cangling Academy. It stands to reason that the Hundred Great Clans fight for life and death before dividing the core star domain. In theory, Cangling Academy will not be allowed to do so. A new power of casual cultivation exists, but the middleman has a lot of energy. Not only has he managed many powerful clans, he has also won a foothold for Cangling Academy."
Su Zhanpeng sighed and said: "After that, Cangling Academy continued to grow and develop, and gradually reached the point where it could break the wrist with some strong clans and even some top strong clans, but at this time, the middleman suddenly disappeared."
"There is such a good person?"
Liu Lang was surprised.
He had heard a lot about the good people and good deeds who helped mount the horse and send them off, but compared with what Su Zhenpeng said, there were some trivial things.
"In the past, I also felt that this adult was a good person. In the 200,000 years since he disappeared, I have been grateful."
Su Zhanpeng smiled bitterly and said: "But just a few days ago, I suddenly received a letter. The letter was written by the adult. He said that he had contributed a lot to the establishment of Cangling College. Pivot interest from Cangling College."
"This request does not sound excessive."
Liu Lang groaned.
"It's not too much, but the interest is a bit too much." Su Zhanpeng said with a toothbrush.
"A little too much is too much?" Liu Lang asked.
"Half of the existing materials in Cangling Academy." Su Zhanpeng replied bitterly.
In order to form an alliance with the Yu Clan, Cangling Academy has already paid half of the materials, and if the remaining half of the materials are divided into two, it is hard to say whether Cangling Academy can be maintained.
One thing is that, although Cangling Academy and Yu Clan had signed a contract when they received the letter, when the other party wrote the letter, there was no contract.
In other words, half of the heart was probably all the remaining supplies of Cangling Academy. If they were to be given away, Cangling Academy could be dissolved directly.
After all, many casual cultivators gather at Cangling Academy to eat. If they don’t even have a meal, what are they going for?
"It's really a lot." Liu Lang said with a dry cough.
As someone who spoke to the lion of Cangling College, he actually had no qualifications to evaluate how much interest the middleman charged.
However, as an ally, he couldn't just watch Cangling Academy collapse.
"Who said no?"
Su Zhanpeng sighed.
If there was no such thing as Liu Lang, Cangling Academy gritted his teeth and threw half of the supplies out. It could barely bear it, but now, I really can't afford to throw it away.
Moreover, the other party was talking about interest, not principal, which means that in the future, it may be asked again when it is determined. It is really a bottomless pit.
"The Yu Clan and Cangling Academy are allies. It is stated in the contract to advance and retreat together. Therefore, I must take care of this matter."
Liu Lang understood Su Zhanpeng's difficulties and immediately expressed his opinion.
"Master Xie Yuhuang." Su Zhanpeng was suddenly overjoyed. Liu Lang is a king. If he really wants to intervene, the middleman will have to think about it no matter how his hands and eyes are open.
"What about you?"
Su Zhanpeng had finished speaking, and Liu Lang turned to Zhong Huarong and Zhu Fangxin.
"Our matter and that of Mr. Su are the same." Zhong Huarong, Zhu Fangxin looked at each other and replied in unison.
"One thing?"
Liu Lang frowned, "Tianqing Palace and Yaoyue City were also built with the help of that middleman?"
"Yes."
"Yes."
To this day, whether it is Zhong Huarong, Zhu Fangxin, or Su Zhanpeng, who was in charge of telling the story before, they will attribute the establishment of Tianqing Palace, Yuecheng City, and Cangling Academy to their own salary and courage, and a word about the long-lost middleman Don't mention it, otherwise, the outside world will not doubt that Tianqing Palace, Inviting Yuecheng, and Cangling Academy are supernumerary forces supported by strong clans.
But now, something went wrong.
Faced with Liu Lang who can help solve the problem, they naturally have to be open and honest, and can no longer hide anything.
"If you haven't seen each other for many years, you will have to split in half. This buddy still has a lot of appetite."
Liu Lang held his chin and thought for a while, and said, "This kind of thing, he can't say as much, just as much, you can bargain appropriately, after all, people have made contributions, you really want to be nothing, and it is impossible to be reasonable. of."
"Master Yu is right."
Zhong Huarong, Zhu Fangxin, Su Zhanpeng nodded again and again.
"It's best to talk about a price that both parties are satisfied with. If you really don't understand, let him come to Yucheng, and I will talk to him."
To be honest with such a middleman with hands and eyes open to the sky, Liu Lang really wanted to see and think about it, Liu Lang added.
"With the words of Lord Yu Huang, we are relieved."
Zhong Huarong, Zhu Fangxin, Su Zhenpeng let out a sigh, and the stone in his heart finally fell to the ground.
You know, the previous ones are foreshadowing. The real purpose of their visit to Liu Lang is still for the middleman.
Fortunately, Liu Lang was able to save face and took it straight away.
