Chapter 115: Switching Above
Along the mountain city, the Governor's Mansion. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Cheng Xingba, the governor of the prefecture, was a former four-rank high-ranking official who retired from the dynasty, and his family, the Cheng family, was also a first-class family in the mountain city.
When Lu Sheng and Chen Ying, as well as Ouyang Ningzhi and Elder Wang, arrived at this mansion together, it was already evening.
The news had already been received in front of the Governor's Mansion, the lights were brilliant, and the servants and servants stood in front of the gate in line to greet a few people.
In addition, there was a tall military attache with a round body and a big belly, standing at the door, holding the hilt of a sword at his waist and waiting for them.
As soon as he saw the carriage of the Red Whale Gang arrive, the big-bellied military attache also hurriedly stepped forward.
"Gang Leader Chen, the head of the road, as well as Elder Wang and Ouyang Nei, are also here. The man squeezed out a smile and looked stiff, as if he didn't want to make contact with a few people at all. But it's also the same, the current Red Whale Gang, well-informed, knows that they have caused a big deal and are in trouble.
"Cheng Duwei is polite, I don't know if a few distinguished guests have come?" Chen Ying asked in a low voice, "In addition, the head of the road has now succeeded me as the leader of the Red Whale Gang, and he is no longer the head of the outside." ”
Cheng Xingba was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly squeezed out a smile again, with a hint of shock and surprise, and asked Lu Sheng for the crime.
"I'm sorry for holding my fists, it's negligence, the gang leader is young and promising, has superb martial arts, and has the courage of ten thousand people, and it is natural to succeed the gang leader. He hurriedly remedied, "Several distinguished guests have already arrived, just waiting for all of you from the Red Whale Gang." ”
"Well, let's go inside. "Lu Sheng had people spread out through the intelligence network in the mountain city in advance, and the Red Whale Gang wanted to find a family to take refuge, and the main information was sent to the Supervision Department.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the Supervision Department to hold a small gathering in the Governor's Mansion and ask the Red Whale people to go.
In addition, a few real distinguished guests were found. They are all spokesmen representing all forces.
Several people walked into the mansion one after another, Chen Ying took the lead, Lu Sheng's face was silent, this was what a few people had said before, Chen Ying communicated in front, and Lu Sheng listened in the back, so convenient to buffer.
Entering the mansion, passing through a thumb corridor, in a small pavilion in the side courtyard, everyone saw representatives from all walks of life who were gathering to drink tea and chat.
In the octagonal pavilion, the black curtain hung down, and it was opened only to the side facing Lu Sheng and the others, and there were four people sitting inside.
Bai Feng Lao Dao was impressively listed, and the other three were a man and two women.
Lu Sheng walked behind Chen Ying and stood outside the pavilion together.
"Please take a seat. Bai Feng's tone was much softer and more polite than before. At this time, he looked at the road and said with a smile: "The main force of the road gang frustrates the masters of the Red Fang, and there is a big battle." I've had a good time waiting. ”
Lu Sheng's eyes froze, knowing that he couldn't hide it, and stretched out his hand to stop Chen Ying who was about to speak. Motioned for him and the rest to leave first, and waited until several people were led away by their subordinates.
"Bai Feng Dao is well-informed. He glanced at the still vacant seat in the pavilion, and suddenly understood in his heart, and walked in without relent, and sat down with the golden sword.
"My Red Whale Gang is full of sincerity, since you are here, you must have a plan in mind, right?" he said in a deep voice.
In the pavilion, except for Bai Feng, the rest of the people sitting were the three representatives of all parties.
One is a fat man like a white and chubby man, holding a hundred-fold fan in his hand and wearing a white hat on his head, with a big 'music' written in the middle of the hat. This person has a kind face, and it makes people feel close at first glance.
The other two are a white-eyed woman wearing a black crown, dressed like an ancient master.
and a beautiful woman with long hair hanging down and a green jade mask on her face.
The three have very different styles, which makes people impress at first sight.
"Tell me about it. Bai Fengdao smiled and stretched out his hand, first pointing at the white and fat man.
"This is Xiao Hongye, Xiao Yuanwai. ”
He pointed to the white-eyed woman again.
"This is the Shangyang Nine Rites of the Shangyang Family. ”
Finally, he pointed to the beautiful woman with a jade mask on her face.
"This one is from the Xu family, Miss Xu Feihong. ”
Lu Sheng's eyes narrowed, except for the fat man who was not introduced, the other two girls were from the Shangyang family and the Xu family.
He doesn't know much about these two families, but since they are both introduced with a family background, they must be both families. And the forces that dare to wade into this troubled water at this time must be extraordinary.
"I've seen three. He clenched his fists and said aloud.
"The battle between the road gang master and the deputy owner of the Red Fang, we all saw it, and it was really extraordinary. I just don't know where you came from?" the fat man Xiao Hongye asked softly with a smile.
"Lu is just a martial artist, and his background is innocent, shouldn't you all have checked it?" Lu Sheng raised his eyebrows slightly.
"The road gang leader is straightforward. Xiao Hongye smiled, "It's just an ordinary person, if you don't have a foundation, how can you rise so quickly." Of course, since the helper doesn't want to say it, then let's leave it at that. Let's talk about the belonging of the Red Whale Gang.
Since you are all sitting here, of course, you are making the conditions clear, and you and I are willing..."
"My Shangyang family only needs seventy percent of the offerings every year, and one person can live there. Shangyang Jiuli's white eyebrows were cold, and he directly interrupted Xiao Hongye and said lightly.
"My Xu family wants to pay ninety percent, but it can ensure the absolute safety of the two trade routes leading to the Central Plains. However, it cannot be permanent. Xu Feihong said softly.
Resident means that a person from the family is stationed in the gang to deal with any troubles that may arise.
The Xu family asked for 20% more than the Xiao family, but what they brought was two safe trade routes to the Central Plains. The benefits in this are actually more than those of the Shangyang family.
The so-called "a few percent" refers to the proportion of resources and wealth collected by the Red Whale Gang within its jurisdiction. The percentage here refers to the share handed over to the family.
Lu Sheng finally looked at the fat man Xiao Hongye.
Xiao Hongye waved his hand again and again: "We don't dare to compete with the two major families, don't look at me, don't look at me, my brother should just talk to these two in detail." ”
Lu Sheng squinted, he always felt that this fat man was not as kind as he appeared on the surface, and he was probably also a smiling tiger type.
Shangyang family and Xu family, these two representatives are women, but Shangyang Jiuli and Xu Feihong's styles are completely different, and their attitudes are unpredictable.
"Speaking of which, I'm still relatively unfamiliar with the two families, so I don't know if I can introduce them a little?" Lu Sheng thought for a while and asked calmly.
"It's easy to say, but this old way has some understanding. Bai Fengdao said with a smile, "The road gang leader is young and promising, and it is understandable if he doesn't know." ”
He glanced at the two women, and when they saw that they didn't react or refuse, he smiled.
"The Shangyang family is one of the nine families in the Central Plains, with strong strength and is known as the iron painting silver hook. It mainly involves medicinal materials, shipping, and silver villages. ”
Shangyang Jiuli didn't look at him, his eyes were slightly closed as if he was in a fixed position.
Bai Fengdao pointed at Xu Feihong again.
"And the Xu family is the royal family of Jurong Kingdom, and the jade merchant is the main one. It is known as a family of jade runes. Equally strong.
In terms of force, no matter which of the two of them is, they are not weaker than the Zhen family. It's even stronger, so you don't have to worry about it when you think about it. ”
Lu Sheng nodded.
"Thank you, Director Belle. He looked straight at Shang Yang Jiu Li.
"Dare to ask Miss Shangyang, if I choose Shangyang, how will the matter of Hongfang be solved?"
Shangyang Jiuli's eyes didn't open, and he said lightly: "The owner of the Red Fang is out, don't pay attention to it for the time being, and when she returns, I will visit her in person." ”
Lu Sheng's heart sank when he heard this.
looked at Xu Feihong on the other side.
Xu Feihong looked at her eyes and knew that she was a very beautiful woman, she was wearing a pink robe, sitting in the pavilion, as if her whole body was buried in a wide and soft delicate robe, and the lotus root-like jade arms loomed between the robes.
Seeing Lu Sheng looking over, she smiled slightly.
"Harmony is precious in the world, and on the side of the Red Square, the slave family can also go to say peace in person. ”
Lu Sheng nodded and groaned. Still said softly to Shangyang Jiuli.
"It seems that this matter will have to trouble Miss Jiuli. ”
When he said this, he meant that he chose the Shangyang family.
Xu Feihong didn't change color, just nodded slightly to the rest of the people, smiled at Lu Sheng again, and then got up and slowly left.
Shangyang Jiuli only opened his eyes at this time, and looked at Lu Sheng with some surprise.
Her attitude is not good, and even this trip to recruit the Red Whale Gang is a little careless, and the benefits she gives are actually far inferior to the Xu family. Even the Xu family gave the condition that no one would be sent to supervise the gang, which meant that no one interfered in the management of the gang.
But even so, Lu Sheng still chose her.
Originally, she thought that she was just coming here for a walk.
Congratulations to the two of you, the Red Whale Gang is the largest gang in the Northland, and the Shangyang Family is also one of the nine families in the Central Plains, with extraordinary strength. Xiao Hongye let out a strange laugh, folding a fan to cover his small mouth.
"Yes, you're good. Shangyang Jiuli glanced at Lu Sheng approvingly. When she came out this time, she was just going to relax, and she didn't think about completing any tasks at all, but she didn't expect to complete it once.
"I don't know when Miss Jiuli will solve the Red Square. Lu Sheng was not polite and asked bluntly. He showed his strength, and it was only then that he won the right to choose between the Maisons. Otherwise, according to what senior brother Hong Mingzi heard from him, the Red Whale Gang had no choice at all, so they had to wait for the Shangyang family and the Xu family to compete and divide the winners and losers, and passively accept the owner.
"It's easy, it's okay tonight. Shangyang Jiuli is resolute, she looks at Lu Sheng well, and she is already impatient with these mundane things, so she has the attitude of dealing with things as soon as possible.
"Thank you, Miss Jiuli!" Lu Sheng clenched his fists.
"Since a few of them have been confirmed, why don't you have a drinking party in this Governor's Mansion?" Xiao Hongye proposed. "It just so happens that all the decision-makers in the Northlands are here, and this is a rare opportunity. A smile spread across his fat face.
"Not available. Shangyang Jiuli didn't say a word, and directly refused, she stood up and threw a stone plaque to Lu Sheng. "This is my Shangyang family contact token, which can be sensed by burning with fire, and I can detect it within a thousand miles. ”
Lu Sheng caught the stone plaque and looked through it carefully.
On the trapezoidal white stone plaque, there is clearly written a chapter length that I don't know what kind of text it is. Look at the penmanship dragon flying phoenix dance, vigorous and powerful, it should be written by everyone.
"I'll go to the Red Fang first!" Shangyang Jiuli turned around and didn't wait for a few people to reply, then jumped lightly, and disappeared outside the pavilion in a blink of an eye.
Lu Sheng just moved his eyes off the stone plaque, and he couldn't see the figure of Shangyang Jiuli.
"The road gang leader is really extraordinary. As soon as Shangyang Jiuli left, Xiao Hongye smiled and said to Lu Sheng. "I actually made the best choice for the Red Whale Gang when I didn't know anything. ”
"Oh, why did Xiao Yuanwai say that?" Lu Sheng raised his eyebrows.
