Chapter 365: Crossing the River Dragon
"The Zhao family?"
Lu Chuan's eyes were different, he didn't pay attention to the gift box sent by him, his eyes drooped slightly, and he said, "Disciple of the side branch?"
"Ahem!"
Zhao Pu's face flashed with embarrassment or annoyance, his expression became more and more respectful, and he lowered his head and said, "Mr. is as wise as a torch, and the old man is indeed a side branch of the Zhao family!"
Although this is the case, there is a trace of arrogance hidden in his eyes.
Just because, the Zhao family in Shuangqi Town is one of the three top forces, and it is one of the founding families.
Even if it's just a side branch, it's not something that ordinary people can humiliate.
Of course, among these ordinary people, it is by no means included, comparable to the half-step innate Lu Chuan.
"The one before?"
Lu Chuan said indifferently.
"That's a dog!"
Zhao Pu took the gift box and said respectfully, "The old man came late to have a son, and he was negligent in discipline, if there is any offense, please ask Mr. Haihan!"
I have to say that Zhao Pu has no omissions in all aspects, and no one can find fault.
Not to mention, as a member of the Zhao family, it is really not easy to do this.
"Offense can't be overstated!"
Lu Chuan turned around and said lightly, "That life is enough!"
In fact, with his temperament, he is not ready to kill at every turn, especially after all this experience.
However, the servant should not be heavy-handed, with the purpose of abolishing Pei Sheng, to please the master.
It's not that Lu Chuan values Pei Sheng very much, but that he doesn't allow it, and under his own care, the people around him are hurt.
"Sir!"
Zhao Pu hurriedly followed, and presented the gift box again, "Mr. has just arrived, and the old man has prepared a little thin wine, so I implore Mr. to enjoy the light and get together!"
This low posture fell in the eyes of others, and it really shocked my jaw.
In any case, he is a member of the Zhao family, and it is too much of a loss of identity to act like this.
As the saying goes, if you are courteous to others, you must ask for something.
Zhao Pu definitely doesn't care about the life of a subordinate.
Lu Chuan is not related to him, and he really doesn't like the pink-faced young man, so he naturally doesn't want to have anything to do with the other party.
Mo said that Zhao Pu was already a side branch of the Zhao family, even if he was a descendant of the Zhao family, even if the head of the Zhao family came in person, he didn't want him to change his mind.
This is not that Lu Chuan doesn't know how to be a man, or doesn't understand human feelings, but a matter of principle.
"No need!"
Lu Chuan stepped into Wanbao Tower, and Pei Sheng followed closely behind, his eyes full of shock.
As a native of Shuangqi Town, although he is young, he can be in the middle of Donglai, and he is used to seeing people of all shapes.
Of course I know, and I know Zhao Pu, how have I ever seen this Zhao family so inferior to outsiders?
For a while, this little boy couldn't help but feel so proud of being a man!
"Master, this person is too ......"
One of the servants grimaced.
Syllable!
Before he finished speaking, he was slapped hard, and his whole body spun twice in mid-air before he fell to the ground, spit out a few broken teeth from his mouth, and snorted miserably and didn't know what to say.
"Idiot!"
Zhao Puyin glanced at him coldly, and commanded in a low voice, "Deal with it!"
Seeing this, the other people were silent, and at the same time they didn't dare to say anything, and at the same time, they dragged their companions away, and they didn't know how to deal with it.
"Crossing the river!"
After taking a deep look at the back of Wanbao Building, Zhao Pu turned around and left, turning around, not only breaking away from his henchmen, but also coming to a low narrow alley in the town.
Tuk Tuk!
After three long and one short knocks, the courtyard door creaked open, and an old man emerged from it, and there was no one left and right, so Zhao Pu was introduced into it.
In the courtyard, there are not many families, just ordinary people.
But for Zhao Pu to come to the door so cautiously, it naturally can't be an ordinary family.
There was no one in the main hall, and the old man didn't speak, so he refilled Zhao Pu with hot tea, and then went into the kitchen and ignored it.
Zhao Pu didn't touch the tea either, and sat in the house.
The sunlight through the window lattice gradually moved, and the old face of Zhao Pu reflected was obscure, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
"Brother Zhao has been waiting for a long time!"
I don't know how long it took, a rather majestic voice came, and Zhao Pu, who was startled, suddenly got up.
When I saw someone coming, I breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's okay, it's okay!"
Zhao Pu waved his hand again and again, a smile appeared on his old face, and he said almost flatteringly, "It's an honor to be able to serve adults!"
"Why is Brother Zhao doing this?"
The visitor sat down on the other side, stretched out his hand, motioned for Zhao Pu to sit down, and said earnestly, "You and I have known each other for many years, and we have many business contacts, but we are confidants and friends, Brother Zhao must not look down on himself so much." ”
"Don't dare, don't dare!"
Zhao Pu sat down again, his posture still very low.
If outsiders see it, and at the same time, they will be shocked and their jaws drop, I am afraid that they will mistakenly think that the Zhao family is about to collapse!
"Hehe, I don't know why Brother Zhao urgently called me?"
The visitor picked up the teacup and took a sip, the old god was in the way.
When Zhao Pu heard this, his expression was a little softened, but he said quite bitterly: "Do you know that there is a guest in Shuangqi Town today?"
"Guest?"
The comer's dark eyebrows raised, and he said in surprise, "Today, I have been dealing with affairs, and I haven't had time to understand the affairs of the town, I don't know who Brother Zhao is talking about?"
Zhao Pu glanced at the other party carefully, and made sure that the other party was not pretending, so he said with annoyance: "Don't hide it, the person who came is a dragon who has crossed the river, early this morning, he revealed his half-step innate cultivation and drank on the fifth floor of Donglai Residence!"
"Half-step innate?"
The visitor's eyes were slightly condensed, and there was a faint shock, "Where did you come from?" There are half-step innates with names and surnames in Yongzhou, Suzhou, Ganzhou and other places, you won't not know them, but if they are half-step innately moving in these places, there shouldn't be no news at all. ”
"Who's to say it isn't?"
Zhao Pu's right fist smashed into his left palm, and said in annoyance, "The most hateful thing is that that person is actually involved with the Wu family, I have prepared a generous gift, this person is not pretending, I'm afraid it ......."
"Something to do with the Wu family?"
The visitor frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Have you ever found out, what is the relationship?"
"That's where it hurts!"
Zhao Pu shook his head and said astringently, "I asked the dog to go to the test, I didn't think about it, I didn't find out anything, I didn't say anything, and I took a human life, my lord, you said this...... What can I do?"
"What a spicy method, this is not taking the rules of Shuangqi Town into account at all!"
The visitor slapped the table, and said in a slightly cold voice, "So, he has made up his mind to take care of this stall?"
"Eighty percent of that!"
Zhao Pu nodded, and the ruthless color flashed in his eyes, "My lord, in order to prevent a lot of dreams at night, it is better to make a decision as soon as possible!"
"What do you mean?"
The visitor suddenly looked up and said.
"Tonight, the Wu family will be wiped out directly, with the status of the adults in Shuangqi Town, and the mediation of the old decay, it will not cause much turmoil!"
Zhao Puyin said coldly.
"No!"
The visitor waved his hand and said hesitantly, "If this could be the case, I would have done it a long time ago, and I wouldn't have to wait so many days, then Wu Mosen was also on guard, and he didn't leave Shuangqi Town half a step at all, and he didn't even care about the safety of the family caravan!"
We didn't succeed in manpower before, and it already made him defensive. ”
"My lord, isn't this a backstabber?"
Zhao Pu stepped forward slightly, lowered his voice and said, "Just ...... like this"
"This ......"
The visitor's eyes flickered, and he clenched his fists fiercely, "Okay, just do it, you go and arrange it quickly, and I will help you take care of the whole thing!"
"Don't worry, sir!"
Zhao Pu's eyes flashed, he bowed, and left the courtyard quickly.
But he did not see that when the old man closed the door and came to the main hall, the man who came bowed down and stood aside.
"Uncle!"
"Hmm!"
The old man nodded, sat on the first place, and said lightly, "Zhao Pu is narrow-minded and short-sighted, not only wants to calculate that young man, but also dares to calculate us, there is no need to keep it!"
"But the Wu family still needs him ......"
The comer hesitated.
"If you die of Zhao Pu, you can still frame him!"
The old man said coldly.
"What my uncle said is very true!"
The visitor's eyes narrowed slightly, and he bowed his head heavily, "I'll arrange it!"
"You must be careful not to show the horse's feet, otherwise...... That young man is not a good-natured man!"
The old man admonished.
"Uncle, don't worry!"
The visitor bowed and exited the courtyard.
"Lu Chuan, Lu Chuan, you actually came to this barren land......"
The old man tapped lightly on the tabletop, his eyes flashing with a terrifying light.
......
At the same time, outside Wanbao Building, Lu Chuan and Pei Sheng were walking on the street.
"The business of Zhenxi Wangfu is doing a lot of business!"
Lu Chuan glanced back with emotion.
"My lord, the trade in the palace has always been fair and just, so many loose cultivators are willing to come here to trade!"
Pei Sheng whispered.
The longer they got along, the more he discovered that Lu Chuan was not as cold as before.
Moreover, he got a lot of benefits from that cup of blood wine.
If you do it again, it will still be the same, even if it will be so painful.
It's just that there is still a chance, Pei Sheng definitely doesn't dare.
"Fair and just?"
The corners of Lu Chuan's lips curled slightly, playing with the taste, "Do you know what kind of profit there will be from the barter transaction method as long as it is transported out of the desert?"
"Uh......"
Pei Sheng scratched his head, his tender face wrinkled, this was really not something he could understand.
"But if you buy and sell, as long as you have a 30% profit, it is enough to make people tempted, if it is 50%, you will definitely dare to give it a go.
If it's ten percent, killing people and setting fires is just waiting for leisure. ”
Lu Chuan shook his head and said indifferently, "And in Wanbao Building, in the way of bartering, the profit is not only dozens of times?"
Even he didn't expect that the many elixirs in the Wanbao Building would need to be purchased with various desert specialty elixir and spiritual materials.
Moreover, the Golden Ticket of Dajin is not accepted!
This kind of buying and selling, even Jubaolou, has never done this.
"But ......"
"Huh!"
Lu Chuan shook his head and strode forward.
Of course he knew what Pei Sheng wanted to say, but if the sand thief was a sideburn dog raised by three families, what kind of risk could it be?
Back in Donglaiju, Lu Chuan had dinner and didn't go out again.
Just wait for a few days to learn more about the surrounding environment, and then go to the depths of the desert to continue their journey.
But I never thought that not long after nightfall, Lu Chuan, who was about to rest in his exercises, was woken up by a noise.
And, straight to his residence.
