"This is the debt owed before." Jiang Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief after heaping sixty third-order coins in front of Chu Yiming. He didn't want to repeat the same mistake as Xiao Mingzhen, losing one for some reason.
Friends, it’s better not to hold on to this “excellent” quality of not paying back your debts for too long.
"Developed?"
"It's a quick profit." Jiang Feng saw the slightly thin figure of the financial backer Mu Qingchuan in front of his eyes. He thought about the remaining 390 third-level coins in his hand. He should still be able to withstand a certain amount of risk, so he added casually.
He said, "But no interest will be paid to you."
"I'm kidding, I really need some spiritual stone turnover recently." Chu Yiming did not be polite to Jiang Feng and took the spirit stone casually. "That business has not been reopened since it was suspended last time. Therefore, without any additional
With the income, the government’s expenses are relatively high.”
"I heard that you went to see Shangguan Bashuang." This news was deliberately revealed to him by Chu Yiming.
"That's right, I have already made it clear to him that we have an in-law relationship." Chu Yiming stood up and walked a few steps in the study room where there were only two of them. "It's going well. The situation has become clear. I'm responsible for it."
He provides the spiritual land, and he is responsible for building the teleportation array. But who is involved in other links is not something that he and I can know. Of course, it is not that there are no breakthroughs, such as Shangguan Xiuqi marrying me.
, the middleman Bai Shiduo is the object of suspicion."
"Bai Shiduo?"
"Yes, that's your father-in-law." Chu Yiming said with a bad smile. He naturally knew that Jiang Feng was taking the blame.
Hi! Jiang Feng sighed, and the two looked at each other and smiled, saying nothing.
"Sometimes knowing too much is not a good thing." Jiang Feng, who had too many secrets in his heart, felt that it would be too dangerous to explore this matter in depth. Bai Shiduo's status in the Li Zong Sect was very high, both in the past and now.
Not bad. If he is really related to this matter, then if he digs deeper, neither Chu Yiming nor Shangguan Bashuang can withstand the blow from the other party.
"I think what is more important right now is to strengthen the role of the two of you in it, not to be arbitrarily regarded as abandoned, and to take more shares if possible. For example, at least from Shangguan Bashuang's perspective,
He can emphasize the necessity of the spiritual land, making your link indispensable. As for you, you need to choose the opportunity to emphasize the use of the spiritual land. Only professional people can ensure safety, and thus remind them in disguise.
, Shangguan Ba Shuang is irreplaceable."
"I understand this. Therefore, Shangguan Bashuang and I agreed that we only need to find out who is handling the transshipment. He has tried it before, but he has not found anything, and the other party is also very careful. On the other hand, I
[.] I suspect that the reason why Bai Shiduo asked me to get married to the Shangguan family was because he wanted to bind us to avoid mistakes. He may also need a sense of security."
A sense of security... Jiang Feng chewed these words over and over again, realizing that there might be higher-level existences above Bai Shiduo that he didn't know about, so he needed to take this trick and bind all the links he knew to
In order to ensure safety. He suddenly thought of Yin Du. He couldn't figure out the person behind this beast, and he should be the person in charge of the sale of prohibited magic weapons. Maybe he could be used as a breakthrough to get a glimpse.
However, it may also lead to immediate danger. This move requires long-term planning. It is said that since returning from Zen Heart City, Yin Du has not appeared. I think when he handed over the complete version of the talisman "Qingfeng Wuying" to him, he once
He promised to fulfill his promise, but now there is no trace of him.
When things are abnormal, there must be monsters. Maybe this is not a good opportunity to take the initiative to flirt.
Regarding Chu Yiming's risky move, Jiang Feng couldn't give him any suitable advice, so he mentioned to him the case of Fang Jinlu being detained. Chu Yiming didn't hesitate at all, and let Jiang Feng rest in the house, and hurried out the door.
Go to the city lord's palace to go around. The Chu family and the city lord Ding Ruoqian still have some friendship, and Ding Ruoqian is the person who reported the Fang family's matter, so he must know how to resolve the matter.
When the sun turned to the west, Chu Yiming brought back the terms of private reconciliation.
"All the Fang family's properties in Zhenwu City need to be sold to the Li family at 10% of the market price. Furthermore, the Fang family must leave Zhenwu City and not do any business here from now on."
Presumably, the Li family was the one behind the scenes. Jiang Feng had confessed beforehand that he only needed to save Fang Jinlu's life. Therefore, as soon as Chu Yiming got the terms of peace, he sent people to Dongji City to inquire.
The head of the Fang family, once he agrees to this, Fang Jinlu will regain his freedom.
Think about it, the world is as black as crows. After this kind of change, the Fang family is probably in ruins and unable to recover. Fortunately, the other party has no intention of killing them all. They only need to withdraw from Zhenwu City. It is just the reputation and relationship network that they have been operating here for many years.
I have to start over again.
Jiang Feng knew that it would take some time for the matter to come to an end, so he spent the night in the Chu Mansion and returned to the gym the next morning.
Ge and his three apprentices had spent the day wandering around Zhenwu City the day before yesterday and were resting in the gym. Jiang Feng called Yingge alone and asked him to go to the Lingcong Chamber of Commerce with him. The experience of being detained by Qiu Nanjia last time made Jiang Feng feel
It would be better to bring a fellow monk with you. With Yingge's second-level earth-level strength, although it is not enough to make the opponent afraid, but if you really want to make a move, a fellow monk will be there to assist you, and you can make some big noise and trigger the powerful sect.
The monk's attention should be enough.
"You said you might take action?" Yingge's eyes were full of excitement.
"But you must not make the first move."
Jiang Feng suddenly felt that it might be a mistake to take him with him. After waiting for the emperor in the "Thousand Illusions" for thousands of years, Ying Ge was like a wild donkey that had escaped from the reins. He started to act with full of violence. He really should have
I found a meditation book and asked him to read it. I heard yesterday that if it weren't for Jiang Yunqi dragging Ying Ge, he would have gone straight to the arena in Zhenwu City early in the morning. If anything happened here, it would be really hard to deal with.
Do you think I am really Xu Funing's true disciple, and I am not afraid of causing trouble at all? Jiang Feng felt bitter in his heart but could not express it. He could only say some fallacies and heresies that "it doesn't mean that the fist is big, it is the last word" to temporarily appease Ying Ge, and even changed his mind.
Angle, warned him that the second level of the Earth Level was just a shrimp in this power sect, and he should not be arrogant or anything like that.
It would be great if we could find a way to trick this black boy into the sect, so that he could be restrained by the sect's rules and regulations. However, with his violent temper being difficult to control, it might not be a good thing to lure him into the sect. Jiang Feng sighed in his heart.
, gave up the idea that this might cause trouble, and happened to pass by the shop "Black Donkey Zhang". He glanced inside, released his spiritual perception, and found that there were only a few servants there, so he gave up the idea of going in to explore and went straight to the store.
Leave "harmony".
…………
Li Zong, Juque City. Everything is still rough.
Digging all the way from the sea to this inland valley was a total of forty miles away. Forty-five construction monks were employed and it took ten days to develop a canal nearly one mile wide.
At the end, except for a stream with not enough water flowing into it, there is only a small town with few people.
In fact, the speed of construction could have been faster. For example, Uncle Feng and Uncle Qing could work together to smooth the waterway in one day. But this is not the case. If the two of them cast spells, it would be difficult to ensure that the earth veins here would not be destroyed.
This will cause frequent collapses along the coast and affect shipping. Now, the construction monks have left the site, and nearly three thousand ordinary people are doing various cleaning and reinforcement work on both sides of the waterway. In two months, this place will become the southwest of Li Zong
It is the only channel for each city’s materials to go out to sea and be transshipped.
The reason for this is due to the results of the previous war and the determination of Uncle Feng and Uncle Qing to reform. The integration of Juque City and the port makes it easier to reduce dependence on the existing trade routes of the three sects in the southwest. After all, all the people who were previously in the three sects
The garrison troops all retreated back to the sect due to the interference of Fan Kingdom and Chilongmen in the previous night, and Li Sect's control here was greatly weakened.
In addition, centralized transfer of materials is conducive to the overall planning of commercial taxes, thereby boosting the sect's income. Although various affairs within the sect are not subject to this, it is always good to have one more point. After all, expenditures are growing rapidly, such as
, the Longxiang Army's investment was a full 50% more than the previous total investment of the Chiluan Army and the Feixiong Army.
Yu Xiaoman cannot understand this.
As a "businessman" stationed here from the Yu family, her task is to first select a location with a good location among the twenty-five shop sites. This is a privilege granted to the five major families, and the remaining two
The ten shops will be leased with profit sharing to major chambers of commerce within the sect, including interested chambers of commerce from outside the sect. Of course, even if the spirit stones are sufficient, they still need to be approved by the powerful sect.
After some deliberation, Yu Xiaoman chose the store farthest from the waterway. Although it was the farthest from the dock, the store here also occupied the largest area, and according to her observation, the store would not be affected by the moisture of the waterway.
, this is particularly important for the business of medicinal herbs, elixirs and talismans. As for magic weapons, although it is not affected, it has not always been the strong point of the Yu family's business. Although there are many ways to avoid this adverse impact, it is invisible.
It will increase daily expenses, especially in the early days of the opening of the port, with twenty-five stores competing, profits will be greatly compressed, and it is very necessary to reduce costs. Otherwise, once the store has a large deficit, it will be difficult for her to explain to her family.
In the face of excellent results, casual words are the last word, but in the face of shortcomings, all explanations are in vain.
In addition, the larger area allows her to place more family members here to make a living, which is more effective in highlighting the influence of her lineage.
In fact, she does not like the business of running a store, but she feels that it is necessary to pave the way for her brother Yu Xiaozheng, so that one day she can realize her ideals. For example, her seventh uncle Yu Chengke has personally promised that once she makes achievements,
If she achieves a profit of 60 third-level coins by the middle of next year, she can use the power of her family to help her explore the "Haitang Sanren Mansion" and have the right to first select two trophies.
Exploring the "Haitang Sanren Mansion" has always been what Yu Xiaoman has been looking forward to. Although the trip was almost done, it was suddenly stopped by the elders of the clan for some reason. Now, it is mentioned again and promised more favorable conditions. This is for
For Yu Xiaoman, it is nothing more than something worth looking forward to.
Originally hoping for help from Jiang Feng, the little boss, Yu Xiaoman looked at the shop that had already built its foundation, and couldn't help but wander around, thinking of all the past events. I heard that he had become Xu Funing's personal disciple and climbed up the ranks.
Gao Zhi. Recently, regardless of his reputation as a "scumbag", he accepted Bai Shiduo as his father-in-law. His level of forbearance is far beyond his imagination.
I was hesitant in my heart, but suddenly my inspiration came to me. I saw a figure in white robe looming near the pile of stones not far away, hiding among them. If it wasn't Yu Xiaozheng, who else could it be?
Xiaozheng was too unreliable. After agreeing to get engaged, he would practice hard in the sect and strive for a further step in the path? A ball of anger arose in his chest, and he went straight towards the opponent and grabbed Yu Xiaozheng's ear.
"Xiao Zheng, why are you running around again? Who asked you to come to Juque City?"
"Myself." Yu Xiaozheng looked aggrieved, "Sister, you have to make the decision for me." He rolled up his sleeves and unbuttoned his upper body, revealing the bloody scars, "Look, look quickly, I didn't even think about that.
The girl from the Yuchi family actually has a habit of abuse, I want to break off the engagement!"
You picked it yourself, you deserve it!
Yu Ziman subconsciously responded, "Who told you to just pick someone with big breasts without careful investigation, and yet you had the nerve to persuade me to cherish the opportunity in front of me. Speaking of which, I asked why the Yuchi family paid so many betrothal gifts. It turned out to be a mystery.
Here. But it is extremely difficult to break off the engagement now. Although the Yu family is powerful, the Yuchi family is responsible for the beast control in the clan. They have made many achievements recently, and it is really a big deal to make the other party lose face... But
Yu Xiaoman suddenly remembered something and asked quickly:
"Aren't you married yet?"
"I..." Yu Xiaozheng was at a loss for words, "I'm a little anxious."
"Bah! Solve it yourself!"
Yu Xiaoman ignored him, thinking that this unsatisfactory younger brother was also drunk, so she made up her mind to leave him alone. After walking for seven or eight steps, she turned back, and her heart immediately softened, but she also had no idea, "What should I do?"
Why don't you go find Jiang Feng, he should be able to give you an idea, and his reputation as a scumbag should not be wasted."
…………
Li Zong, Zhenwu City.
Jiang Feng and Yingge entered the "Heqiju" herbal shop through the back door together. Jiang Feng, who originally expected Liao Shenchang to be alone, did not wait for this result, but met Qiu Nanjia first.
"You're welcome and safe."
"Headmaster Jiang has been in the limelight recently, I admire him." Qiu Nanjia smiled. Jiang Feng could tell that it was not a complimenting smile. Although it was not contemptuous, it still had some special meaning.
"They're all just false names." Jiang Feng didn't know what she was talking about. As far as he knew, what might have caused the effect was participating in Zhu Qianmu's battle, or possessing the ancient treasure Eternal Tower, or being raped by Xu Funing.
Accept him as a disciple.
"Headmaster Jiang is humble. In my opinion, the relationship between in-laws is the most effective and lasting bond. Although the daughter of the Bai family has died in love because of you, everyone knows about the relationship between the father-in-law and the father-in-law, so there may be some good things about it.
"
So this is what you are talking about... Embarrassment suddenly appeared on Jiang Feng's face. What finally passed down in his heart was that Bai Ruoxi died for her love because of me. If this happens, wouldn't I be a real "scumbag"? He sighed in his heart and frowned.
Looking at the clouds of sadness, he pretended to be sad and said: "It is really a heartbreaking thing. I don't want to mention it again, Qiu Zuo."
"No, this is the best opportunity for you and me to resolve the previous misunderstanding."
Misunderstanding? It's forced to say it. You are also good at doing things in front of others. Thinking about this, I couldn't help but look at the other person a few more times. After a few breaths, I saw the golden light flowing in the other person's eyes, and I couldn't help but feel the pressure increase sharply.
However, he saw Ying Ge's body next to him burst out with spiritual energy, and the entire reception room immediately changed its appearance.
"stop!"
When everything was about to become real, Qiu Nanjia shouted suddenly, but saw that the surrounding scenery quickly dissipated. When he looked at Yingge again, cold sweat dripped down his forehead, and the golden light in Qiu Nanjia's eyes also quickly dissipated and returned to its original appearance.
"Your subordinates are indeed very capable."
Qiu Nanjia had only briefly asked about Yingge's name before. In her opinion, most of the people brought by Jiang Feng were her own subordinates. However, she had never heard of anyone in the Qianshan Sect being promoted to prefectural level. She thought it was Jiang Feng who recruited her from Waiyan.
helper.
"You should know that I mean no harm."
It seemed that Qiu Nanjia had misunderstood her gaze, but Jiang Feng immediately thought that she might have done it on purpose to test the strength of his subordinates.
"Your reputation and past make me deeply worried." Qiu Nanjia looked slightly tired, gently rolled up her purple skirt, and sat down again. This time, her beauty was even more obscured, "But this does not affect our continued cooperation.
