Chapter 4: Even Prisoners Can Make Money

At this moment, at the entrance of the Wang family, people from all the major cultivation families in the town gathered, watching Wang Ke, who was covered in blood.

I have conducted business with the head of the Wang family; without complete certainty, how could the head of the Wang family possibly assert it so definitively

Luck, luck, hahaha! Wang Ke seems to be oblivious to the other's sarcastic remarks

Indeed, Master Wang, you have now encountered this great opportunity; let us also have the chance to witness it!

I have a Princess of the Dark Moon, and Nie Tianba also has a Princess of the Dark Moon. What reason does he have to believe that what he holds is fake?" Wang laughed.

Nie Tianba shook his head: "What we have captured is definitely real. Hmph, Wang Ke thinks he can deceive the Jinwu Sect; he is courting death!"

This is no longer a secret, and it is unclear who spread the word. All the cultivators in the town are aware of it, and countless cultivators have gathered to watch as the Wang family's convoy of prisoners slowly returns to the entrance of the Wang family estate

Zhuxian Town

Recognizing the face of Princess Youyue?" Zhang Zhengdao swallowed hard

"Master, you don't think what we have captured is fake, do you?"

"What I have is real, Wang Ke, what you have cannot possibly be real!" Nie Tianba clenched his fists, a bead of cold sweat forming on his forehead

Wang Ke had taken a bath and changed clothes, stepping out in a new outfit, just in time to see Zhang Zhengdao, who looked utterly astonished.

"When have you ever seen someone able to extort money from me?" Wang laughed.

As soon as this thought emerged, Nie Tianba was also taken aback.

A large number of servants emerged from the Wang family residence, surrounding the entrance with barriers, leaving only a winding passage to maintain order. At the main gate, tables were set up, with each manager seated, and baskets placed nearby, ready to collect spirit stones

Come, I will give you ten pounds of spirit stones; I will go in and take a look first

In that case, everyone please wait a moment. I will place Princess Youyue in the backyard of the residence, and then I will arrange for everyone to come in and watch. Please wait a moment!" Wang Ke said, bowing slightly to the crowd.

They are not looking at two prisoners, but rather at five spots for disciples of the Golden Crow Sect!" Wang Ke shook his head

However, we have never seen the appearance of Princess Youyue before!" Nie Tianba frowned and said

"It is possible, but what I see is you making money!" Zhang Zhengdao said oddly

We? We are not! The expression on the face of that Nie family member changed.

This? '' Wang showed a look of difficulty.

Outside the main gate, a group of cultivators waited anxiously

What does it mean

In the crowd, a "Tuo" was the first to follow the fence passage to the door where the steward was, paid the money, and, guided by the Wang family's servants, headed towards the backyard

Ladies and gentlemen, this time, my Wang family has suffered significant losses in our efforts to capture Princess Youyue. Please do not push forward; we must not allow the villains to seize the opportunity!" Wang immediately stood in front of the enthusiastic townspeople and cupped his hands in salute.

In front of a large crowd, competing for Princess Youyue, if one were to accidentally cause her death, it would lead to serious misfortune for oneself

Among the crowd, the disciples of various major cultivation families all had red eyes at this moment. This is not about Princess Youyue; it concerns the five disciple slots of the Jinwu Sect. Seize? If it weren't for the concern of too many people being present, someone would have already stepped forward to snatch it.

is not

This is not a hassle; this is called creating momentum! Wang confidently stated

"Master, I went to see her, and that Princess Youyue is just so ugly, it's obvious she's fake. Wang Ke must be out of his mind!" said the disciple of the Nie family.

"On what basis?" Zhang Zhengdao questioned, perplexed.

What else is there?

You send someone to continue the investigation" Nie Tianba said in a deep voice

Haha, that can't be wrong. Besides, would I dare to use a fake Princess Youyue to deceive the Jinwu Sect? I certainly don't want my Wang family to provoke the Jinwu Sect and face extermination!

The members of the Zhong Nie family all went to inquire, leaving Nie Tianba alone with a terrifyingly dark expression.

The bounty notice from the Golden Crow Sect has spread throughout the vast mountains, and everyone is envious. However, they all know it is like searching for a needle in a haystack, something deemed impossible. Who would have thought that the mysterious Princess Youyue was actually captured by Wang Ke and his men

In Zhu Xian Town, all the members of the prominent families went to see it, each contributing ten pounds of spirit stones. How could Wang be so ruthless!" a member of the Nie family lamented.

Good, thank you, Master Wang of the Illustrated Book!" A voice in the crowd immediately exclaimed.

What do you mean

Zhang Zhengdao understood Wang Ke's meaning and immediately said anxiously: "Wang Ke, you can't do this. This time I brought you the news, so half is not acceptable. How about four to six? I'll take four, you take six. Don't be too greedy! How about three to seven? Forget it, I'll take a little loss, two to eight! I'll take two! You're being too unreasonable, how about one to nine? One to nine!"

Master Wang, what great fortune you have, even Princess Youyue has been captured by you

You really know how to stir things up

Nie Tianba listened as a member of the Nie family continuously reported.

Did you think that I scared them outside the main gate just now? No, they were not scared; it was simply inconvenient for them to act in front of so many people. Almost everyone who bought a ticket had the same thought! A glimmer of confidence flashed in Wang Ke's eyes

Indeed! That is why they are willing to spend money to see the face of Princess Youyue!" Wang confidently stated

Wang family, an entrance to a hall

The surrounding cultivators were taken aback, is this really happening? Are they going to charge an entrance fee?

The cultivators looked at each other in astonishment. Is Wang Ke really making money off prisoners? Can money be earned this way? Has Wang Ke gone mad with thoughts of wealth?

Wang Ke glanced at Zhang Zhengdao, his expression very amiable as he let out a soft "heh"

Wang Ke, are you going to keep everything to yourself? You are so ungrateful! After accompanying you for so long, you haven't given me a single spirit stone! You are too stingy! You shouldn't be called Wang Ke; you should be called Wang Stingy. No, you are the King of Stinginess! Bah!

Nie Family

The prison van is sealed, with only a small hole through which one can vaguely see that there is one person inside each compartment

"A person pays ten pounds of spirit stones, and just now I quietly counted, there are already over a hundred people who have entered. You are really making a fortune, Brother Wang. I don't care; this time in rescuing Princess Youyue, I want my share. I also want a portion of the money made from selling tickets. I want half!" Zhang Zhengdao immediately said with a thick face, excited.

Not only was Wang Ke covered in blood, but the group of Wang family disciples behind him also appeared to be severely injured. They had just returned and immediately went back to the Wang family mansion to tend to their wounds. At the entrance of the Wang family, there were currently two large prison carts.

You have been so busy with these illustrations and books, is it all for Nie Tianba to see

Although Nie Tianba spoke with a firm tone, he could not help but feel a sense of doubt in his heart. He could not understand why Wang Ke would seek a false Princess Youyue to deceive the Jinwu Sect. Based on his understanding of Wang Ke, he was not that kind of person. Could it be that the one he captured is the real one?

Before long, the main door swung open with a loud bang

Wang Ke smiled casually, but the strong individuals surrounding him changed their expressions, and the earlier restlessness was completely suppressed.

As he spoke, Wang Ke strode towards the backyard, leaving Zhang Zhengdao fuming with anger

Ladies and gentlemen, the head of the family has already arranged for Princess Youyue. You may purchase tickets here; first come, first served! The courtyard of the Wang family has been equipped with a hollow cage for Princess Youyue, ensuring that everyone can see clearly within the time it takes to burn a stick of incense

"Do you know the saying 'Three men can create a tiger'?" Wang laughed.

Everyone scoffed at you; do you still wish to buy off the head of the Wang family with spirit stones? Do you not know that the head of the Wang family is the richest person in Zhuxian Town

With the first leader in place, others began to follow suit

Everyone looked at Wang Ke, their eyes flashing with resentment. This Wang Ke was indeed cunning; he had already sent someone to inform the Jinwu Sect. As a result, even if they forcibly took him, the Jinwu Sect might not acknowledge it later.

Are they all trying to seize Princess Youyue?" Zhang Zhengdao shivered.

Indeed, the Princess of the Dark Moon, who can secure a promise of five slots from the Golden Crow Sect and stir up commotion in the surrounding areas of the Ten Thousand Great Mountains, must certainly be no ordinary person. Let us witness this for ourselves

"Master Wang, we have never seen Princess Youyue. May we have the opportunity to see her?"

"If I want Nie Tianba to believe that what I have is real, I must first make everyone in the town believe it is true. Then, everyone will tell Nie Tianba that it is indeed real, continuously brainwashing him and gradually destroying his confidence!" Wang Ke said confidently

Although the surrounding cultivators felt a bit pained by the expenditure of 10 spirit stones, most of them could still afford it. Since everyone was contributing, there was not much to say on their part

"Master Wang, the bounty notice from the Jinwu Sect does not contain an image of Princess Youyue. Are you certain that the one you captured from https://m.hetushu.com is indeed Princess Youyue? Don't make a mistake!" another person said with jealousy.

"What does it mean?" Zhang Zhengdao still asked in confusion

Who would use a fake Princess of the Moon to deceive the Golden Crow Sect? That would be a sign of impatience with life. I believe there is something genuine in this matter

Of course, if the villains were to rob, they must also consider whether they would offend the Jinwu Sect. Because I have already sent someone to inform the Jinwu Sect, it won't be long before they know that I, Wang Ke, have captured Princess Youyue! This 'name' cannot be taken away. Furthermore, if in the struggle, Princess Youyue were to escape, that would offend the entire Jinwu Sect. I believe none of you wish to be enemies with the Jinwu Sect, do you?" Wang Ke once again clasped his hands and smiled.

In the crowd, a lively discussion was taking place, while Wang observed the "stooges" he had arranged among the people, who were continuously "brainwashing" everyone, and he smiled with satisfaction.

Although Wang Ke appeared to be in a difficult position, he was extremely satisfied in his heart, while also waiting for his "support" to continue speaking

In the crowd, there was a great commotion, with everyone clamoring to see the Moonlight Princess in the cage

However, Nie Tianba's expression darkened slightly: "Do others say the same?"

However, this king is truly adept at making money; capturing a prisoner and even selling tickets to profit from it

Furthermore, the Golden Crow Sect has issued a bounty for the live capture of Princess Youyue. If anyone's greed leads to the death of Princess Youyue, uh, the Golden Crow Sect will hold them accountable, and that would be a grave sin

Wang Ke immediately returned to the residence with two prison carts, escorted by the Wang family disciples, and the main gate was slammed shut

Someone told him that Cousin Dajie is Princess Youyue, but he did not believe it! What if two people told him? What if three people told him? What if everyone in the town told him?" Wang Ke said confidently

Spend ten pounds of spirit stones to clearly see the appearance of Princess Youyue, wait for the right moment, seize her into my hands, and then go to the Jinwu Sect to claim the reward

"What idea?" Zhang Zhengdao asked in confusion

Hmm? Wang Ke furrowed his brows as he looked at Zhang Zhengdao

"Master Wang, I understand that with so many people around, you are concerned about causing a disturbance. How about this: I will offer 10 pounds of spirit stones, and you let me take a look. What do you say?" said a cultivator from the crowd

Indeed, the head of the Wang family has always been cautious in his dealings. If he dares to report to the Jinwu Sect, it must be without error! I believe that Princess Youyue is definitely involved in this matter!

"Hmph, this is Wang Ke's style, reckless and money-driven!" Nie Tianba said in a deep voice

The most sensational news yesterday was the Wang family's sale of financial products, which led to a frenzy among wealthy cultivators in the town. Today's most sensational news is still about the Wang family

The group of cultivators exchanged strange glances and ultimately nodded in agreement

Reputation? What is reputation? As long as I become a disciple of the Golden Crow Sect, who would dare to speak ill of me?

Ah? Other people? They have never seen Princess Youyue, so naturally they did not say it was fake. Each one who saw the appearance of that 'Princess Youyue' could not help but exclaim in wonder. They all said, no wonder the Jinwu Sect did not provide a portrait of Princess Youyue; it turns out she had always been too ashamed to show her face to others, " recalled the disciple of the Nie family

"Brother Wang, are the people of Zhuxian Town all fools? Spending ten jin of spirit stones just to see two prisoners? Have they gone mad? There is no benefit in this, so why are there so many people?" Zhang Zhengdao said with a look of confusion.

Because at this moment, the "Princess of the Dark Moon" in the exhibition is none other than my bearded cousin! With so many people, are they trying to compete for my cousin? Is this not the pinnacle of her life?

Wang Ke looked at the disdainful cultivator and oddly nodded: "Well, we are all from the same town. Since I, Wang Ke, have gained fortune, it would be too unreasonable not to satisfy everyone's curiosity. However, there are too many people, and my Wang residence ultimately cannot accommodate them. Princess Youyue, I cannot let anything happen to her! How about this: ten pounds of spirit stones for a viewing time of one incense stick? And it will be according to the rules of my Wang family, is that acceptable?"

Collecting tickets?" Nie Tianba was taken aback.

Indeed, the Princess of the Moon we captured, although she has a scar on her face, it is not difficult to see that she possesses extraordinary beauty. However, that Princess of the Moon is truly hideous beyond compare. What was he thinking? Where did he pull that onion from? How could someone with such a look be a princess?

"Ugly?" Nie Tianba was taken aback

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the many powerful individuals changed instantly, and they immediately became much more restrained

It is true, Head of the Wang family, what great fortune!
