That's all, he didn't think much about it. He had another argument with the old lady while eating breakfast, and then went to work.

Zhuo'an.
It was a sunny day early in the morning, and the soil was almost smoking.
"It's not good. Didn't you say it will rain recently?" Dong Rui couldn't help complaining to He Lingchuan, "My baby can't walk in such conditions."
The prerequisite for the snail toad to travel hundreds of miles at night is that the earth is moist. If the surface is dry, it will have to burrow within five miles.
Today is a big day to take action, but God is not kind to me.
Ominous, ominous.
He Lingchuan smiled: "Why are you so anxious? The time has not come yet."
Look at how old he is, Dong Rui is doubtful, this guy likes to be unpredictable, but he can probably predict it, which is really annoying!
Sure enough, before the end of the day (2 p.m.), the sky suddenly became dark and dark clouds gathered.
There were several thunders in the sky, and the rumbles made the ground tremble, followed by heavy rain.
He Lingchuan said leisurely: "What did I say before?"
In fact, a Yangshan team arrived in Zhuo'an a few days earlier than him to collect information on hydrology, weather, scenery and other information. Unlike when he was in trouble in the Heavenly Palace, He Lingchuan now had a whole team standing behind him. He no longer had to fight alone and did everything himself.
.
The summer in Yao Country is rainy, and there have been hot thunderstorms in the afternoons for three or four days in a row recently.
Sure enough, today is no exception.
Dong Rui breathed a sigh of relief: "That's pretty much it."
It had been two days since he arrived in Zhuo'an. He Lingchuan grabbed Fan Shuang and visited local aristocratic families and chambers of commerce in a revolving door manner, visiting eleven of them in a day and a half. Fan Shuang almost broke his legs running and expressed deep admiration for his energy.
Only He Lingchuan and Dong Rui knew that they had to go through all the necessary cutscenes before the official action. With so many aristocratic families having seen him, the news that the owner of Yangshan Island was passing through Zhuo'an was confirmed.
While they were talking, Fan Shuang came to invite: "Brother He, Brother Wei, why don't we go have a drink in the front yard? If you're late, there won't be a place."
The inn they stayed in was also chosen by He Lingchuan as hint to Fan Shuang. The front yard was a restaurant, and the back yard was a guest room. The front and back were connected by a covered bridge, so guests could not get wet even if they walked back and forth on a rainy day.
It is surrounded by mountains and rivers. In front of the restaurant is a curved river bend. The reeds beside the stone beach are taller than people. Even if more than a hundred people enter, they will be invisible. When it rains, the foggy swamp makes the low houses on the other side invisible.
, there is nothing more than a vast expanse.
This was exactly the location He Lingchuan needed most during his operation. The inn built next to the river allowed him and Dong Rui to come and go without a trace.
In order to act correctly, he must pay attention to every detail.
So when it rains these days, the front yard is crowded with guests drinking and watching the rain.
While admiring the rain, you can also watch passers-by looking miserable when they are being rained on, which makes me so happy!
He Lingchuan calculated the time and found that Xue Zongwu would arrive in Mangzhou in three hours. There was still plenty of time, so he stood up and said, "Let's go, you won't return unless you get drunk."
These days, he has figured out Fan Shuang's drinking capacity, and it is not difficult to get this person drunk.
Dong Rui said, "You go, I have something to do."
Action is imminent, he wants to debug the Snail Toad, this little thing has been a bit active recently.
Fan Shuang and He Lingchuan called to Commander Zhao again and walked to the front yard together.
It was raining all the way, which was very interesting.
As Fan Shuang expected, the front yard was crowded, and the 200-square-meter hall was almost full.
There is only the last box left.
Fan Shuang asked and found out that a large caravan was checking in today. Everyone had nowhere else to go on a rainy day, so they were all lying here.
Mangzhou was really busy, and all the high-end inns were full. Some caravans simply found other places to stay, such as Zhuo'an.
Fan Shuang quickly said to the shopkeeper: "I want that box."
There was a lot of noise in front of the counter, but another person said in unison with him: "We have booked a private room!"
There were two clanging sounds and two ingots of silver were thrown on the counter.
The shopkeeper didn't want to offend anyone, so he smiled apologetically and said, "There is only one private room left. Can you two guests negotiate?"
Fan Shuang turned around and saw that the person competing with her for the box was a man in his twenties.
"this……"
As soon as he opened his mouth, the other party said: "Our general wants this box. You can find another place."
General? Fan Shuang was startled, which general?
There are quite a lot of generals in the Yao Kingdom, both serious and miscellaneous.
A man appeared from behind the man and smiled at Fan Shuang: "Brother Fan, Commander Zhao, long time no see."
He Lingchuan glanced at him, and by chance, he turned out to be an acquaintance.
Heavy general!
Back then, this young general from the Yao Kingdom led his troops to hunt down the three-tailed fox demon. He used the encirclement technique, and the plan was very clear. If He Lingchuan hadn't caused trouble, the three-tailed fox demon would have been killed long ago.
That night, General Chongwu was caught off guard by the newly born Luo Shengxiejia, and the army suffered heavy losses.
Until the Yangshan Chamber of Commerce settled in Yao Kingdom, He Lingchuan would occasionally hear his name. It seemed that the Yao King's court was very dissatisfied with his performance in Baijianshan.
Exactly at this moment, exactly here, did he meet the heavy-armed general? He Lingchuan's heart skipped a beat. As expected, there are always surprises in actions.
Fan Shuang immediately greeted him: "How are you, general? Oh, how could we not meet each other?"
"I came from Xiaozhizhou to escort some gifts to the capital, but the heavy rain poured in." General Chongwu said hello to Commander Zhao again, and then glanced at He Lingchuan, "Who is this?"
"This is He Xiao from the Yangshan Chamber of Commerce. We all call him He Island Master." Fan Shuang warmly introduced both parties, "Brother He, this is the youngest general of our Yao Kingdom, General Chongwu! He came from Lingxu
He returned to China after completing his studies in the city, three years before me."
Since being sent as an envoy by King Yao, Fan Shuang's tongue has become more and more agile. His mention of this has brought him closer to General Chongwu.
They were all students who returned from overseas, and they also had contacts in Lingxu City.
General Chongwu was not as trustworthy as Xue Zongwu, and both parties smiled and greeted each other in a very polite manner.
He Lingchuan remembered that he was the son of the leader of Pixia. When he was in Lingxu City, his status was probably lower than that of Fan Shuang, a son of an official family with upright roots.
General Chongwu then said: "It's windy and rainy, and we have nowhere to go. How about we share a table?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Hearing this, Fan Shuang looked at He Lingchuan, who nodded with a smile: "This is a good idea. I am about to ask General Chongwu for advice."
So a few people booked the last box.
This private room is at the corner of the first floor of the inn, and it should usually be quite quiet. Unfortunately, even if the door is closed today, you can still hear the noise outside.
He Lingchuan rolled up the bamboo curtain facing the river bend with his own hands, leaving only a rain curtain between the sky and the sky, with thousands of needles threading through it, beads and jade splashing through it.
The aroma of green grass and earth also comes with the wind.
Everyone clapped and shouted: "Good rain, good rain!"
It's so pleasant to watch the rain like this. It's even more interesting when two drops of water occasionally fall on your body.
You can't just drink on a rainy day, you also have to have food and wine. Fan Shuang called the waiter and ordered six or seven appetizers at once: "I'll treat you, I'll treat you, and no one can steal it from me! General, the signature here is the popular Jiumentou
, must try it!”
General Chongwu smiled when he heard this and said, "When did you come here and you could even introduce the signature dishes to me?"
"The day before yesterday." Fan Shuang shook his head, "I originally wanted to go through Mangzhou, but I heard that the inn there was full and there was no place to stay. Brother He also wanted to come to Zhuo'an to have some business connections, so we are here."
General Chongwu turned his attention to He Lingchuan: "Today is the first time I see Lord He Island, but for some reason, I always feel like we have seen each other before."
He Lingchuan touched his nose and secretly thought that this guy's "feeling" was indeed correct. He had indeed met him, but at that time he was wearing a mask and riding on the back of a bat demon puppet, urging Axun, who was wearing Luosheng armor, to follow him.
A heavy-handed general fights a battle.
His smile was like a spring breeze: "When I first met General Chongwu, I also felt that I was in love with him. Oh, this word of fate is really wonderful. Some people's hair is as white as new, and some people's hair is as old as before."
"That's right, it's all the same." General Chongwu toasted him a glass of wine, "Hearing is better than seeing. In the past, I only heard that the owner of He Island was a successful big businessman with a lot of money and plenty of food and money; we met today.
, actually looks like a dragon and a phoenix."
"General, that's a compliment." Just as the steaming hot Jiu Men Tou arrived on the table, He Lingchuan took a chopstick.
The so-called "Nine Mentou" refers to the nine parts of the cow, including the tongue, belly, louver, heart apex, kidneys, heart crisp tube, etc. It seems that it is just stir-fried, but each part takes a different time to mature.
.If the cook is not careful, the ingredients will be overcooked.
Everyone also ate a few pieces and praised it one after another.
Crisp, tender, fresh, fragrant, spicy, with all five flavors.
The soul-capturing mirror in his arms made an ooh and ah sound: "Yes, this guy is the son of the leader of Vixia! If you support the allied forces to attack Vixia, he will definitely be unhappy with you. Oops, he will do something bad today!"
He Lingchuan shook his head slightly. Did this dull mirror remember this important relationship?
But General Chongwu did not show any hatred at all. Instead, he said with great interest: "Speaking of the Yangshan Islands, I passed by there twice when I returned from Lingxu City. I even stayed overnight in the supply depot on the island seven years ago. Alas.
, unforgettable for a lifetime.”
He Lingchuan also remembered that before he bought the Yangshan Islands, there were two islands with supply depots, but the conditions were simple. Reni's house was not bad, at least it was clean and tidy, and the other one was simply...
"General, you have suffered." He couldn't help but smile, "Welcome to the Yangshan Islands again, they are no longer what they used to be."
General Chongwu nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, I heard that the place has changed drastically a long time ago. I will definitely go there again if I find a chance."
"He 'heard'!" the Psychomancer screamed, "He is really asking about you!"
Fan Shuang added on the side: "The Yangshan Islands are located on the golden channel. After being taken care of by the island owner He in the past few years, it is now the busiest port west of the Yao Kingdom. There are a large number of caravans in the Mou Kingdom, Bejia, and Ya Kingdom.
Take that route."
"I remember that the Yangshan Islands were originally shrouded in evil spirits, making it difficult for living creatures to approach." General Chongwu asked curiously, "How did He Island Master manage to develop the entire island?"
He Lingchuan smiled mysteriously: "I have some secret techniques passed down from my ancestors that can deal with evil spirits."
