C9 Endemism

"This is?" The Young Master looked at Jun'er curiously. He didn't know where Jun'er had gotten this thing from as a refugee. Could it be that he had done something that he shouldn't have done?

"Didn't I already say it? "I'm learning to look at the mountain. Before I look at the mountain, shouldn't I learn to look at the rocks first?" Jun'er blinked her eyes a few times as she spoke, attracting the attention of her young master as he laughed heartily.

"If that's the case, I will accept it." He took the crystal mine over from Jun'er with a smile. He played with it for a while and seemed to be in a good mood.

"Oh right, I still don't know how to address young master! How will we meet in the future? " Jun'er asked matter-of-factly.

"In the future, if you earn enough money and want to buy land, come find me here!" Even though the young master's answer sounded weird, Jun'er didn't doubt him. After all, it was the other party who had proposed this deal.

"Fine, then let's make a deal!" Jun'er smiled as she raised her hand. When the Young Master clapped with his palm, she made a promise.

"Well, what shall I call you?" Young Master looked at Jun'er, who was preparing to go down the mountain as it was getting late, and shouted.

"Jun'er!" My name is Jun'er! " Turning her head back to look at the young master waving his hand, Jun'er ran down the mountain with a smile. She thought about the deal she had made and felt indescribably happy.

"Army? Buddha truly doesn't give up! " As Jun'er's silhouette disappeared from the forest, the young master who stood on the peak murmured to himself.

"Young master, do you really want to grant that kid land?" Shan Yin, who never got the chance to speak, frowned and asked in a low voice.

"Why not?" The Young Master turned around and glanced at Shan Yin, then followed him towards the cliff at the top of the mountain.

"You clearly know that land cannot be bought or sold, but why did you still agree to it?" Wasn't this clearly a scam? Shan Yin frowned as he looked at Gongzi.

Compared to the sale of land, the taxes on leasing were more considerable. The refugees could improve the environment, hunt and trade could promote the economy, and could also make a fortune in the national treasury. This was also the reason why everyone was willing to lease the land to the refugees.

"Then let him become my citizen." This way, not to mention the land, picking medicinal herbs, and mining in the mountains, it wouldn't be a difficult task.

"Is that kid worth it?" Shan Yin looked at Young Master with suspicion. Every city had strict management of the household registration system, and they couldn't just enter as they pleased.

"That will depend on his ability." As the Young Master spoke, he lowered his head to look at the crystal mine that he was playing with in his palm, the corners of his mouth raised in a playful smile.

"Even so, Young Master doesn't need to give him the mechanism box, right? What if I can't get it back? " Shan Yin's face showed a hint of worry, which formed a strong contrast with his master's casual attitude.

"Today, although that thing is a life-saving talisman to me, it is also a life threatening horn. Rather than having it by my side, it is better to keep it hidden in the forest than to let it be there. No matter how hard the seven cities try to crack their brains, they would never think that it would be on the body of a homeless brat. As long as the item is not found, those people would not dare to act rashly." As the Young Master spoke, he stood in front of a cliff.

"I'm just afraid that the kid will unravel the hidden traps. When the time comes, the world will be in chaos." Shan Yin pulled out his sword from his waist and walked to the side of the Young Master. He aimed at the crack on the cliff and stabbed it in, then twisted it fiercely.

As Shan Yin moved, the quiet cliff suddenly emitted a rumbling sound. Following which, a stone door cracked open in front of Gongzi, and a person's width was slowly pulled apart.

"Then this is heaven's will." With a rumble, the stone wall in front of him split open, and the young master said this in a low voice. Then, he walked in.

Shan Yin raised his head and looked at the Young Master who was walking in front. He didn't say anything else and just followed him into the cliff. Then, he closed the stone door behind him.

As she examined the pendant in her hand, the fragrance of the ancient wood assaulted her nostrils. Jun'er couldn't help but grin as she tore off the pendant's rope and hung it around her neck.

He didn't expect that the first time he negotiated a business with someone, it would be such a big deal. If he were to tell his father and the others, it would be hard to tell whether he would be shocked or not.

Hm! Better not, wait until he learned to look after the mountains, made a lot of money, and then bought the land! What expression would everyone show then? It was very interesting just thinking about it!

Jun'er walked down the mountain in a flustered manner, but she unconsciously changed her direction. By the time he realized it, it was already too late. He could only stand in the forest and sigh deeply.

This was truly sad from extreme joy! Jun'er thought to herself as she raised her head to look at the sky, then looked down at the ground and moss beneath her feet. After thinking for a while, she suddenly turned around and dived into the bushes beside her.

Relying on the memory in her head, Jun'er quickly crawled out of the bush and almost fell onto the road in a sorry state.

Before Jun'er could recover from her shock, she heard the sound of horse hooves kicking against the ground. As soon as she turned around, she was startled by the huge horse charging towards her.

With a scream, Jun'er crouched down with her head held in her hands. She was so scared that her face turned pale. The riders held the reins tightly, holding the horses' heads high, before finally standing firm on the road with much difficulty.

"Young master!" The guards who accompanied them also steadied their horses and went up to ask in concern.

"I'm fine!" Jun'er carefully stole a peek at Nie Tian's stern voice from above her head.

It was a young man with a face as cold and stern as his voice. His black embroidered clothes looked very noble, and his carving-like face had an unconcealable heroic look.

"How dare you!" How dare you block my way! " The guard shouted at Jun'er, scaring her to the point that she had to lie on the ground and apologize.

"Please forgive me, Young Master!" This commoner did not mean to offend you, but was just lost in the mountains, so he appeared in a panic. " Jun'er explained respectfully, afraid that she would accidentally cause trouble and cause trouble for the big boss.

"Lost? Isn't it because of the herb picking secret? " Young Master Leng Jun mocked as he glanced at Jun'er's backpack which was carrying the herbs.

The cold voice from above scared Jun'er so much that she grabbed the backpack on her back. Young Master Leng Jun snorted at the sight of it and shouted loudly.

"Get out of the way!" Young Master Leng Jun was about to ride his horse past Jun'er. However, when he passed by Jun'er, his gaze was attracted by the wooden accessory hanging around Jun'er's neck. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he saw it.

"That, where did you come from?" Young Master Leng Jun suddenly stopped and jumped off his horse, looking down at Jun'er condescendingly.

"Young master?!" The guard accompanying him was astonished as he saw this. He dismounted from his horse and walked over as well.

Young Master Leng Jun raised his hand to signal the guard not to talk too much. He looked at Jun'er, who raised her head blankly, then reached out to grab the pendant hanging on her neck. However, he didn't expect Jun'er to avoid him.

Glimmers danced in Young Master Leng Jun's eyes as he watched Jun'er carefully. Jun'er, who was still afraid of Young Master Leng Jun's actions, didn't know what to do.

"This, no, I can't give you." Jun'er, who was incoherent, held on tight like a protector.

"Do you think you have the right to refuse?" Young Master Leng Jun snorted at Jun'er.

"That, that still won't do!" Gritting her teeth, Jun'er looked at the other party with a determined gaze. She tensed up so much that she almost jumped into the grass to escape.

"No?!" Young Master Leng Jun didn't expect to be rejected so completely. He reached out his hand to pinch Jun'er's chin and raised his eyebrows.

"No one has ever dared to say no in front of me. Do you know what you're holding in your hand?" Young Master Leng Jun asked with a shout. Although Jun'er's face twisted in pain due to the slight force of his hand, she still held on to the hanging piece.

"It, it's a keepsake!" If he gave it to her, what would he use to buy land in the future? Jun'erxin gritted her teeth furiously.

"A keepsake?" Young Master Leng Jun narrowed his eyes as he heard Ye Zichen's words.

"Do you think I would believe it?" Young Master Leng Jun snorted and threw the person away at the same time.

He bumped into a guard at the side. Jun'er was held firmly by the collar. She nervously looked at the person who grabbed her, then looked at Young Master Leng Jun, who was looking down at her from above.

"It, it's true! I, I'm not lying to you!" Jun'er desperately tried to explain, but her expression was serious as she held on to the wooden stick, not letting go.

"Is that so? Let me hear what kind of keepsake it is. " Young Master Leng Jun put his hand on his sword and raised his eyebrows.

Seeing that her opponent wasn't willing to let it go, Jun'er swallowed a mouthful of saliva in panic. If he didn't tell her the truth, then this person wouldn't want to pull out the sword, right?

Thinking of this, Jun'er couldn't help but become alert. Even her voice started to tremble, and she couldn't help but roughly explain the matter of buying the land.

"Young Master?" After the guard heard Jun'er's words, he looked at Young Master Leng Jun in surprise. As expected, he saw the other party had a sly smile on his face.

"Interesting, really interesting!" Young Master Leng Jun suddenly twitched his lips and stared at Jun'er.

"That person actually promised you a village, what a shame that he could do it!" Young Master Leng Jun looked at Jun'er and couldn't tell where she got her value, but he had never doubted her eyes.

"What are you doing?!" Jun'er glared at Young Master Leng Jun, who snatched the wooden work away like a bolt of lightning, and shouted loudly without thinking.

"Give me back my things! Give it back to me! " Jun'er, who was being held by others, struggled incessantly. In the end, she couldn't help but cry out loud.

"Why did you take it? Why! That's mine! Mine! " Jun'er cried out as she tried to break free from the restraints. She didn't even hesitate to bite the guard's hand.

"You!" The guard twisted his expression in pain and was about to fiercely throw the person onto the ground, but he was stopped by a glance from Young Master Leng Jun.

"The agreement between the two of you is very interesting. About this, I'll keep it for you." As Young Master Leng Jun said this, he stuffed the items into his arms, causing Jun'er to open her eyes wide in shock as she screamed.

"Who wants you to take it!?" I don't need it! " Without that, how would he be able to meet with that young master in the future? How would he be able to buy land that would allow him to settle down?! Jun'er was so flustered that tears fell from her eyes.

"Kid, I'm helping you right now. Don't not know what's good for you." Young Master Leng Jun looked at Jun'er coldly.

"I don't need your help. You are trying to destroy everything. Without that token, I won't be able to buy land!" Thinking about that, Jun'er couldn't help but cry. Her pitiful appearance made Young Master Leng Jun frown.

"You're really naive!" Young Master Leng Jun looked at Jun'er and humphed coldly.
