The scene just now shocked the nobles among the onlookers. The boss of Nanjiang Territory, the majestic Marquis of the Empire, would apologize to a young man in the street!
"Did you hear that, just now, the Marquis... actually apologized to that young man!"
"What big thing happened? How could Mr. Hou..."
"What is the identity of that young man..."
"The young master of the Chu family was arrested yesterday. It is said that he was charged with assassinating an important talent in the empire. Could it be this young man..."
"Hurry up and tell your family about this. Maybe the Chu family is going to fall. We have to prepare quickly!" A person with the brightest mind immediately thought of this possibility and was the first to leave quickly.
Immediately afterwards, several other nobles also reacted and trotted home. If the Sheriff of Lanyu City really changed, there would be many things involved, and it might have something to do with their own family.
A group of civilians who didn't understand what was going on showed extremely excited expressions after hearing the discussion of several nobles. It must be said that people's gossip mentality is innate, no matter which world they are in.
Ever since, the scene just now spread quickly! The news that Nanjiang Marquis apologized to a young man in the street, that the Chu family might fall, and that the sheriff would be replaced, spread quickly!
After Yuan Hao heard the news, he sighed in frustration. Although he already knew the result after losing the horse race, Nanjiang Hou apologized in the street, which was really unexpected.
Ever since they received the news that Jiang Xingchen rushed to Nanjiang, he and his father Yuan Xixuan planned to win over He Yunxuan, and they did not hesitate to recruit Xiong Hong for this purpose! Unexpectedly, he turned his hand for the clouds and his hands for the rain, and everything about them was in the palm of his hand.
All the calculations disappeared. Moreover, 600,000 topaz coins were compensated.
"Is he that powerful? He blocked Nanjiang Hou's other roads early in the morning, forcing him to come and apologize!" He thought of what He Yunxuan had told them with disdain, and Jiang Xingchen's harsh words, and his breathing was tight.
!
After a long time, Yuan Hao shook his head vigorously, wrote the letter, and then sent it out using Su Ying.
At the same time that Yuan Hao sent the letter, all the nobles in the city were in action, looking for deeper information. The change of the Sheriff made all the nobles a little nervous. Some were worried that they would be implicated in the fall of the Chu family, while others saw it.
Further hope. Even Chu Daxiong himself was full of anxiety at this time.
In fact, everything in Lanyu City has not changed much. After achieving his goal, Jiang Xingchen did not go any further. He just said that he needed people. The more, the better!
After hearing this condition, Marquis Nanjiang finally breathed a sigh of relief. Don't you just want a slave? I'll give it! It doesn't matter how much you want, the big deal is just to lose more money.
"Yunxuan! Go and bring the biggest dealers in Lanyu City here!" Marquis Nanjiang ordered his son to quickly handle the matter.
After He Yunxuan left, Nanjiang Hou smiled and said: "Stars! Look at the racecourse, is it..."
"That's it! Okay, I'll call Black Lightning back right away!" Jiang Xingchen nodded.
"In addition, the Chu family has a weak soul..."
"Master Hou, this will have to wait a while, after my brother comes back later!"
Marquis Nanjiang frowned, a little puzzled: "Does this matter still have to go through your brother?"
"Hehe!" Jiang Xingchen smiled sinisterly and said lightly: "This Young Master Chu cut off one of my eldest brother's fingers!"
Marquis Nanjiang was stunned for a moment, and then he cursed in his heart: "This Hundan who succeeds but fails more than meets the eye, I wonder why Jiang Xingchen is so angry, and he keeps attacking so cruelly! Damn, we should kill this Hundan right away.
.I feel less worried now that he is dead... Yeah!"
While he was cursing in his heart, Marquis Nanjiang frowned and whispered: "Xingchen, there is one more thing..."
Before he finished speaking, the old man became dissatisfied. He glared and said, "I said you are done with it. I have agreed to all the conditions. Don't push yourself too far!"
"You're paralyzed!" Upon hearing what the old man said, Marquis Nanjiang's eyes suddenly widened, and he yelled: "I wanted to borrow your toilet for a while, but why did I go so far? Do you think I was willing? It's not you who is harming me.
of……"
"..." The old man and Jiang Xingchen were both speechless, looking embarrassed and laughing awkwardly.
Marquis Nanjiang's anger exploded, and the previously suppressed emotions also came up. He opened his mouth to shout. But then his stomach growled, blocking all his words, and said hurriedly: "Quick, quick, quick! I can't bear it anymore..."
A month later, when the sky darkened, Sun Sanqiang and Feng Ji came back with black lightning.
"Brother! Black Lightning is amazing. After sweeping seven games in a row, I didn't show any signs of fatigue. The more I ran, the more energetic I became... If you didn't call me, you wouldn't be able to sweep thirty games, but fifteen games would definitely be fine.
!" Sun Sanqiang said with an excited laugh.
Black Lightning seemed to be responding, snorting and tapping its front hooves on the ground, its eyes shining brightly.
Jiang Xingchen smiled and patted Heidian on the head, and then said to Sun Sanqiang: "The matter has been resolved. Master Chu's place..."
Sun Sanqiang's eyes suddenly lit up and he said grimly: "I've been waiting for this! This bastard!"
Seemingly impatient, Sun Sanqiang ran into the room where Master Chu was imprisoned after finishing speaking!
"You...what do you want to do? Don't mess around. My father is the sheriff...ah~" Soon, Master Chu's horrified shouts rang out in the room, followed immediately by a shrill and long howl.
When Marquis Nanjiang heard this in the courtyard, he couldn't help frowning and sighed in his heart. After all, he was also one of his subordinates.
Not long after, He Yunxuan came back with people. Several of the biggest dealers in the city were there, and there was also a middle-aged man with a bandaged left hand and a pale face. Needless to say, this was the boss of the Sun family!
The moment he saw Sun Sanqiang, the boss of the Sun family was so excited that he burst into tears and rushed towards him crying.
Sun Sanqiang did not have much emotional fluctuations and directly took his boss back to the room.
Jiang Xingchen said nothing and asked He Yunxuan to take Master Chu and his men away.
It wasn't until this moment that the big stone in Nan Jianghou's heart really fell into place. He then directly ordered the dealers to take out the best goods on hand and let Jiang Xingchen choose, and all the expenses would be charged to him.
Jiang Xingchen smiled and thanked him, then sent Marquis Nanjiang away. Then he followed a few dealers to pick out people.
What surprised several dealers was that Jiang Xingchen did not choose the most popular young adults and beauties as soon as he arrived. Instead, he chose older people first.
"What do you know...how to blacksmith! I want it!"
"You... know how to make bricks and pottery! I want it!"
"You... know how to spin thread! I want it!"
Jiang Xingchen asked all the way, as long as there was someone proficient in the craft, he wanted it!
Next, what surprised the dealers even more was that in the second round, Jiang Xingchen actually selected children around ten years old. He chose the older ones because of their experience and skills. But as for children, usually
You only have children to serve the little nobles. Do you have so many little nobles in your family that need to be taken care of? Nearly two hundred of them were taken away at once.
It wasn't until the third round that Jiang Xingchen began to select young adults, but they were all good at farming or a certain industry. As for beauties, he selected a few who could spin, raise silkworms, and make clothes. The rest
Don't want any.
"I'll go, this guy shouldn't be..." Several dealers looked at it and were puzzled. How could they not choose beautiful women? They took out all the best goods, but in the end, none of them were valued by Jiang Xingchen. This
It was simply unbelievable, and several people couldn't help but have alternative and evil thoughts.
Jiang Xingchen doesn't know what these people are thinking. Otherwise, he will definitely tear them into pieces!
It wasn't until late at night that Jiang Xingchen selected people. There were more than 300 people in total, most of whom were children around ten years old.
"Boy, what's the point of having so many children?" the old man asked in a low voice, puzzled.
"Exactly!" Jiang Xingchen rolled his eyes at the old man and said calmly: "It takes ten years to grow trees and a hundred years to cultivate people. Education starts from childhood. These are the talents who will be the pillars of the future territory..."
Speaking of this, Jiang Xingchen looked at the confused old man and patted his head hard: "Why am I telling you this? You don't understand!"
"I don't understand!" the old man exploded immediately, "What do you mean, you are despising me!"
"It takes a hundred years to cultivate people, but you are a bastard! You don't even have any cultivation. How can you live for a hundred years... You can't even hire people to farm in your current territory, and you still have spare money to support a bunch of little ones."
Ah, I don't understand..." the old man said quickly and angrily.
Jiang Xingchen stared at the old man blankly for a long time, then whispered: "Old man, I just won 4.6 million topaz coins, you don't remember!"
"Uh!" The old man was speechless. He wished he could give himself a slap. Why did he forget this problem?
"It's terrible to be uneducated!" Jiang Xingchen sighed and shook his head.
"Boy, you're looking for a fight, right?" The old man was anxious. He was different from before. He had already understood what it meant to be uneducated!
But as soon as he finished saying this, the old man's eyes fixed, his expression changed instantly, he let out a chuckle, and he laughed.
"Huh?" Jiang Xingchen, who had the upper hand in the quarrel, was a little confused. Following the old man's eyes, he saw a big fat man walking over panting.
"Nah~" Jiang Xingchen immediately understood why the old man was laughing. He must have thought of what the passers-by said in the afternoon.
However, before he could warn the old man, the fat man had already trotted up to him and said, "Master Jiang, you still need to record the sales records! However, the Marquis has ordered that all the records of these people today be given to you for safekeeping!"
"Nanjiang Marquis did this very well. Leave the transaction records to me. Whether these people can settle down in the future is completely in my hands." Jiang Xingchen secretly praised Nanjiang Marquis and thanked him with a smile: "That's troublesome.
You!"
"No trouble, no trouble..." The fat man waved his hands repeatedly, then trotted inside and went to find some dealers to go through the formalities.
After another month, the fat man took two stacks of white silk and handed them to Jiang Xingchen respectfully. One stack contained slave contracts, and the other contained each person's purchase and sale records.
Jiang Xingchen took it, turned it over casually, let the old man take it, and told them to send the person here early tomorrow morning, and then turned around and went to the outside world.
In the middle of the night, after the matter was settled, Jiang Xingchen returned to his residence, lay down and fell asleep. He had a very sweet sleep.
But the old man didn't sleep. He wrote down everything that happened in the past two days and sent it out using Su Ying.
