Jiang Li's hands were shaking slightly.

It's not that she hasn't seen money before. In the twelve years she spent in the Killing City, the total amount of property she took from dead people amounted to tens of thousands of gold soul coins.

But that was earned through countless close calls.

And these in front of me...

"How much?" Before she could wake up from the shock, Gu Rong's voice came from the other side, with a hint of knowing teasing in her tone.

"...Hundreds of thousands." Jiang Li's Adam's apple moved, and her voice was a little dry.

The corners of Gu Rong's mouth were slightly raised, with an expected expression.

"When has Fengzhi ever been stingy in doing things?"

Jiang Li was silent.

Slowly withdrawing his consciousness from the storage soul guide, he couldn't tell whether his mood was complicated or ridiculous.

Holding this money in her hand, she felt heavy in her heart.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

"Tuk-tuk-tuk."

Three times, no rush, no slowness, very polite.

Jiang Lei collected her thoughts and spoke calmly.

"Come in."

The door was pushed open and a middle-aged man walked in quickly.

The man was tall, with broad shoulders, thick and strong fingers, and his knuckles were covered with calluses and burn marks.

The visitor had a square face and steady eyes. After entering the door, he briefly looked at the two people in the room, then bowed and saluted.

"Two distinguished guests, I am Silong, a disciple of President Lou Gao of the Blacksmith Association. The teacher has asked me to entertain you two."

Gu Rong opened his eyes slightly, looked up and down, but said nothing.

Silong straightened up, took out a folded list from his arms, and handed it over with both hands.

"The president has ordered that your accommodation has been arranged. In addition, this is the list of items for tonight's auction. The president said that you two may be able to use it."

Jiang Li took the list, opened it and glanced at it, her eyes quickly locked on the last line.

The Eight Treasures Ruyi Soft Armor has a base price of 100,000 gold soul coins.

Sure enough, there.

"Besides," Silong added.

"It's almost noon now. I wonder if you two would appreciate the honor and let me cook for you and have a light meal?"

Jiang Li glanced at Gu Rong.

Gu Rong rubbed his chin and said calmly: "The guest does as he pleases."

The hotel is not far away. You can see it from a distance after leaving the Blacksmiths Association.

The three-story building has two gilt lanterns at the door, giving it a certain grandeur even during the day.

Silong walked in front to lead the way. As soon as he arrived at the front desk, the shopkeeper came up to him with a smile on his face.

"Private room No. 1."
