Rebirth Of The Strongest Female Emperor Chapter 49

Ye Qingtang’s words indeed stumped the four men.

The four of them came masked, so how did that girl know their ident.i.ty?

“Let me guess the exact amount of this high price. Is it ten thousand?” Ye Qingtang said with a smile.

The four people from the Qin Luo Pavilion narrowed their eyes. Although they did not confirm verbally, their silence gave Ye Qingtang an answer.

Ye Qingtang smiled and continued. “It really is ten thousand? I didn’t think that the Great Elder of the Ye family would be so petty to give you all only ten thousand gold.”

The Great Elder of the Ye family?

The four men initially thought that Ye Qingtang was stalling time on purpose, but they did not expect that… not only did Ye Qingtang point out their ident.i.ty, but she even knew that the person who hired them was the Great Elder of the Ye family.

At that instant, the four men’s reactions turned slightly weird.

“Little thing, what do you actually want to say?” the leader asked coldly.

Ye Qingtang replied, “Nothing much. I just think that given the capabilities of the four of you, a reward of ten thousand may be a bit too low. Isn’t the Great Elder’s payment of only ten thousand gold a look down on your abilities? How about this: I’ll give you forty thousand gold to get rid of the Great Elder.”

The four men were startled by Ye Qingtang’s words.

Forty thousand gold?

Wasn’t that four times the price the Great Elder offered!

The four men exchanged glances and did not easily believe Ye Qingtang’s suggestions. Their leader said, “Young Lady Ye, I know your ident.i.ty. However, don’t take us as fools and trick us. We are very clear of the situation in the Ye family. Given you and your father’s position in the Ye family, I’m afraid you don’t even have ten thousand, much less forty thousand…”

Ye Ling, who was behind Ye Qingtang, was on his guard as well. He merely took Ye Qingtang’s actions as an act of stalling time and knew that the man’s words were true. With his and Ye Qingtang’s situation, there was simply no way to get forty thousand gold.

However…

Ye Qingtang gave a faint smile. After looking at them in the eyes, she took out bars of gold from her s.p.a.ce ring and placed them in front of the four men.

In the blink of an eye, a total of twenty thousand gold bars were stacked before the four men. Under the moonlight, the gold bars sparkled in brilliance and blinded the four men’s eyes.

Although the Qin Luo Pavilion had taken on quite a few cases, the rewards were at most a few thousand gold. The offer of ten thousand gold by the Great Elder of the Ye family was already the highest paying request they accepted in recent years.

Yet, unexpectedly…

Young Lady Ye offered such a high amount and was really able to pay it.

“There is twenty thousand here. Treat it as my deposit. As long as you get rid of the Great Elder of the Ye family, I will automatically pa.s.s you the remaining twenty thousand.” Ye Qingtang looked up at the four hesitant men.

In her previous life, she did not know about the Great Elder’s scheme and did not have enough money to buy over these a.s.sa.s.sins. But now… everything was different.

She wanted the Great Elder to have a taste of his own medicine and to experience how it felt to be targeted by hired a.s.sa.s.sins.

Initially, the four a.s.sa.s.sins were a little hesitant. However, seeing so much gold piled in front of them, they exchanged glances at once. A shrewd expression flashed across the leader’s eyes as he faked a heavy tone,

“The Qin Luo Pavilion has its own rules. Since we accepted the order, how could we change it so casually? If this goes out, wouldn’t it ruin the Qin Luo Pavilion’s reputation?” the leader said, but his words had much less murderous intent than before.
