Chapter Thirty-Two: Transactions
Hongyu County is adjacent to the boundless sea.
As the name suggests, the boundless sea is boundless and has no end.
It is said that a monk once wanted to find out where the end of the boundless sea was, so he flew in one direction for decades, but still could not see the end, so the name of the boundless sea became widely spread.
Hongyu County is not large, and together with the surrounding villages, there are about 5,000 people.
Most of the people in the county live by the sea and make a living by fishing. Very few people live in the county town, so the county town is empty and not very popular.
They only gather in the county town during festivals and fairs.
The county government office of Hongyu County is located in the center of the county.
The county government office is not big and looks very old. However, the two stone lions in front of the county government office have been weathered by wind and rain and are still majestic.
At noon that day, two people came to the Hongyu County government office, a man and a woman.
The man was wearing a green robe and looked like a scholar.
The woman is wearing a white dress and is extremely beautiful.
The two of them were Su Yi and Leng Qingyue, who had traveled thousands of miles from Kyoto.
After checking Su Yi's official seal, the master of Hongyu County bowed respectfully.
"I have been looking forward to a new county magistrate coming from the imperial court for a long time. Since the previous county magistrate died of illness, a large number of affairs have accumulated in the county government and no one has been able to handle them. I am really troubled."
The master sighed.
"Oh? I see there aren't many people in the entire county. Why are there so many things going on in the yamen?"
Su Yi asked.
"What you don't know is that Hongyu County is located in the border area of Dajin and next to the boundless sea. There are countless sea beasts in the sea that will attack fishermen. Some sea beasts even transform into human forms and kill some ignorant women in Hongyu County...
"
When he said this, Master's face turned red and he found it difficult to say anything.
I could only hesitantly say: "Those women realized something was wrong, so they went to the county government to complain. There are countless such things."
Su Yi was a little speechless.
Generally, only level seven sea monsters can completely transform into human form.
The seventh-level sea beast is equivalent to the human Nascent Soul level early monk, so naturally he looks down on the ignorant village woman.
However, sea beasts below level seven generally cannot completely transform into human form and will retain some of the characteristics of sea beasts.
For example, after the shrimp demon's hard shell turns into a human race, it may not be able to completely turn into skin.
I don’t know what those ignorant village women think, even if they look like monsters, they will be fooled.
When Su Yi thought about it carefully, it would still be a headache for him to deal with such trivial matters.
Just listen to Leng Qingyue say: "Don't worry about these things in advance. When the county magistrate takes office, there is one more important matter for you to deal with."
"Oh? Dare I ask who the girl is?" Master cupped his hands and asked respectfully.
"I am the first wife of Magistrate Su, you can call me Mrs. Su." Leng Qingyue said with a calm face, raised her head and held her chest high.
Su Yi didn't know when he married his first wife.
But Leng Qingyue made an agreement with Su Yi before arriving at the county seat, and after arriving at the county seat, everything would be up to her.
Su Yi couldn't say much.
Just listen to Leng Qingyue continue to say: "Master Su wants to build an altar. The altar will be placed in the government office. You go find dozens of skilled craftsmen and work overnight. It must be completed as soon as possible."
After saying that, he threw a bag of gold to the master and continued: "If the craftsmen in the county are not good, you can find craftsmen in nearby counties. There are one hundred taels of gold in it, as well as the drawings of the altar. If the gold is not enough, you can still
Ask me for it."
The master opened the bag and was almost blinded by the brilliant gold in the bag. He quickly bowed and said: "That's enough, that's enough. Not to mention one altar, even ten altars are enough. I'll go find the craftsman now."
Strive to complete it as soon as possible. Mr. Su, Mrs. Su, and the villain have resigned."
After saying that, the master left happily. It seemed that he could make a lot of money this time.
"Miss Leng, do you want to explain to me?"
After the master left, Su Yi asked.
"Now that we have arrived in Hongyu County, I have some things to tell Mr. Su."
Leng Qingyue said slowly: "To be honest, King Fu has a deal with some high-level sea beasts in the sea, and some materials need to be sent to King Fu through the teleportation array."
"Since most Linhai counties are under the supervision of county magistrates, materials cannot be transported blatantly. The Jin Dynasty explicitly prohibits officials from trading with high-level sea beasts."
Having said this, Leng Qingyue looked at Su Yi and said with a smile: "Young Master Su now understands why Prince Fu went to such great lengths to arrange for Young Master Su to be a small county magistrate."
"Ahem."
Su Yi pretended to cough a few times and said, "Miss Leng, I want you to explain why you told the master that you are my first wife?"
Leng Qingyue was surprised when she heard this, and then said: "I still have a lot of things to do in Hongyu County in the future. Without the cover of the county magistrate's wife, it is very inconvenient. Mr. Su won't mind, right?"
Su Yi smiled and said: "I don't mind, I don't mind, why would I mind."
"But..." Su Yi's voice changed: "In order to prevent others from suspecting, let's just put on a show and make a trap. Miss Leng can rest in my room from now on."
Leng Qingyue: "..."
On this day, Leng Qingyue and Su Yi came to a deserted beach together.
Leng Qingyue took out a conch-shaped magic weapon in her hand and blew it against the sea.
The conch didn't make any sound, but Leng Qingyue looked like she was struggling.
This conch magic weapon is actually a very energy-consuming magic weapon.
After a long time, a big man in gray robe came riding the waves.
The big man laughed loudly and said: "Miss Leng, long time no see, why did you come to this sea area?"
Leng Qingyue bowed slightly and said: "General Beng, I have no choice but to do so. The county magistrate of the eastern sea area was suddenly transferred elsewhere. It is also my blessing to Mr. Su that I can meet the general again."
General Beng turned to look at Su Yi and said with a smile: "This is the new contact person. He looks young."
Leng Qingyue and General Beng were chatting and laughing freely, but Su Yi was surprised.
This is a genuine seventh-level sea monster, comparable to the Yuanying stage monks of the human race.
General Beng, as he is called, should be a clam spirit. It is quite rare for a clam spirit to be able to cultivate to the seventh level.
Su Yi saw that although General Beng looked the same as an ordinary human race man, he had several pearls inlaid between his eyebrows, and General Beng's skin was very smooth and tender, just like that of a woman. Looking closely, he was still slightly different from the human race.
Su Yi cupped his hands and said, "I'm here for the first time. I hope the general will give you more advice in the future."
General Beng laughed loudly: "It's easy to talk about. As long as you pay enough spiritual stones, everything will be easy for me to talk about."
Hearing this, Leng Qingyue threw a storage bag to General Beng.
The storage bag looks heavy, and there should be a lot of good things in it.
Seeing this, General Beng threw a storage bag over without saying anything.
Leng Qingyue and General Beng both looked satisfied after counting the contents of their respective storage bags.
"That's right, that's right. In addition to the spiritual stones, there are also a few things that the general needs. The general is very satisfied. It's so refreshing to make a deal with King Fu." General Beng laughed.
Leng Qingyue also smiled slightly: "General Beng's materials are also one point more than agreed upon. It seems that General Beng is also a generous person. I will also say a few nice words in front of Prince Fu."
The deal was completed, and both of them left the beach tacitly.
After returning to the county government office, Leng Qingyue said to Su Yi: "Master Su, I will leave the transaction to you in the future. When the altar is completed, I will transform the altar into a teleportation array. From now on, the master will use the teleportation array to transmit the materials to
Just King Fu will do."
"As for the spiritual stones and elixirs needed for the young master's practice, after each task is completed, King Fu will transfer them to the young master together with the spiritual stones used for trading."
Su Yi smiled and said: "Every time there are a lot of spiritual stones and materials traded, King Fu is not afraid of Su running away with the money."
Hearing this, Leng Qingyue smiled and said: "Master Su is joking. The materials and spiritual stones in each transaction are tampered with. Master Su has his life to take it, but not his life to spend it."
Su Yi asked: "Is it possible that I have to stand by the teleportation array every day, waiting for King Fu to transmit the spirit stone?"
"That's not necessary. Even if it's a small transaction, it only happens once every few months." Leng Qingyue said.
"Oh, then Su is relieved." Su Yi said with a smile.
"By the way, Mr. Su needs to supervise the construction of the altar. I have been ordered by King Fu to go to the nearby Yuanwu Kingdom to find out some information." Leng Qingyue suddenly said.
"Yuanwu Kingdom?"
