The news spread, and the whole city was in an uproar.

At first, I naturally didn't believe it much, after all, there weren't a few rumors that day, and most of them were just talking on the streets and alleys, after tea and dinner. Only this time it's clearly different.

The first to react are the businessmen with a keen sense of smell, and their years of experience in business allow them to come up with similar answers with only a little analysis. With a guess, it was natural to go and check it, so one after another people dressed as family men ran out of the courtyards of deep houses and rushed to the tooth shops all over the city.

As a result, the first to be alarmed were the two parties who were already fighting in the tooth shop.

Yangzhou City, near the south gate of a dental shop.

A young man who looked fifteen or sixteen years old, still with a trace of childishness on his face, was constantly bidding with a middle-aged man in his thirties with a short beard opposite.

This young man's name is Zhao Ming, and he is also the guy who came to Yangzhou from Yuzhang with Wang Tieniu this time. Speaking of him, he is also an old man on Xu Chen's side, when Xu Chen opened his first restaurant in Chongrenfang, he was the first batch of Xu Chen's training guys, and later received Xu Fan and Huang Xian by chance, and finally became the guy who had to serve every time Xu Fan went to the restaurant, and when Xu Chen first saw Xu Fan's back that day, he also introduced Xu Chen, so he entered Xu Chen's sight and became a key confidant.

After receiving three months of arithmetic training organized by Xu Chen, Zhao Ming was sent to Yangzhou to assist Wang Tieniu, and only because he was still young did he become one of Li Xian's deputies.

As for the tooth shop next to the south gate, it is the second largest tooth shop in Yangzhou City after the one opened by the Zhenhai Gang in the center of the city. Behind this tooth shop is not the sea gang, but the local family forces, I think it is because I am afraid that it will ruin the reputation of the family, after all, the car and boat shop is the kind of business that should be killed even if it is not guilty, so few people can know specifically which force is behind it.

When they set off in the morning, the teenagers divided the work in advance, and the one in the Zhenhai Gang was personally gone by Li Xian, so this family was led by Zhao Ming. It's just that now Zhao Ming doesn't know that something has happened to Li Xian, and now he is still bidding with the other party in no hurry.

The middle-aged man on the opposite side was still a little contemptuous of Zhao Ming at the beginning, but when Zhao Ming kept raising the price without blinking an eye, the shock in the middle-aged heart was beyond words.

"Yonghefang, I'll give you five thousand!" Zhao Ming looked at the middle-aged man and indifferently stretched out an open hand and said.

"You! This piece of land is far away from the street, and it's not worth 500 yuan, but you actually sell 5,000 yuan!" the middle-aged man shouted in a hurry.

"You care about me, if you want to, quickly increase the price, if you don't, this land will be mine!" Zhao Ming raised his head and squinted at the middle-aged man.

"You!" the middle-aged man was speechless for a moment when he heard this, and a hesitant look appeared on his face.

The middle-aged man is a cronie that Ye Xuan has cultivated over the years, and he rarely contacts the Zhenhai Gang, so few people know about the relationship between them, this time he received Ye Xuan's strict order to venture out of the mountain, and when he came before, Ye Xuan naturally revealed something to him, so he was bound to get these lands today.

It's just that he never expected to meet someone with the same purpose as him, looking at Zhao Ming's appearance at any cost, the middle-aged man naturally knew that the other party's purpose was the same as his own, and what was even more tragic was that the copper coins carried by the two of them this time were almost the same, so in this short but fierce competition, they had their own victories and defeats, and the competition for those prime land houses was even more tragic, but both of them came by order, so they naturally would not retreat lightly.

At this time, the shopkeeper of the tooth shop next to the two of them had already blossomed in his heart, and today's business was really good for him! There were so many wronged leaders, who usually couldn't sell a piece of land for a few days, but today they were generally snatched away by these two people at a price several times higher, and they were not picky eaters at all, no matter the location, where the land wanted.

Seeing that the middle-aged man was hesitating, the shopkeeper looked at the middle-aged man with a pair of expectant eyes, and the fiery gaze really wanted to shout the bid for the other party in person.

Naturally, the shopkeeper of the tooth store also suspected the reason why these people were crazy about buying land, but he didn't think deeply in front of the huge transaction price, and simply attributed it to the fact that the two sides might have some dislikes, until the arrival of a man dressed as a man......

This guy was a wealthy merchant from a nearby family who had heard the rumors and sent him to inquire about the news.

As soon as this person entered the tooth shop, he walked straight to the shopkeeper, and asked the shopkeeper very familiarly: "Shopkeeper, my master sent the little one to inquire about something to you." ”

Hearing this, the shopkeeper took his fiery gaze away from the middle-aged man, looked at the guy who had just come in, and asked with a smile, "Oh, what did Master Wu ask you to ask?"

It seemed that it was really an acquaintance, and the man immediately said: "Master, let me ask you how the land business is doing these days, and what is the transaction price?"

This old man Wu also seems to be a shrewd person, and he did not reveal the rumors he heard, but only inquired from the side.

It's just that the speaker is unintentional, and the listener is intentional, just when the shopkeeper was about to answer without thinking, Zhao Ming and the middle-aged man immediately looked at this guy in shock when they heard this, and then looked at each other.

"Oh no!" was the thought that welled up in the hearts of the two of them at this moment.

"No! if it drags on like this, it's over!" Although Zhao Ming is young, he is very clever, and he realized the severity of the situation in a flash, and then approached the middle-aged man and whispered to him: "You and I both understand each other's purpose, we can't fight any longer! Otherwise, no one will get these lands!"

The middle-aged man was naturally not stupid, and immediately asked when he heard this, "What do you want to do?"

"In this way, let's pay for all these lands first, and then divide them equally after we go out, how about it?" Zhao Ming said.

"Okay!" the middle-aged man agreed without hesitation.

Then, Zhao Ming turned around and shouted at the shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, we bought all the remaining land for 300,000 yuan!

The shopkeeper who had just opened his mouth and was about to explain to that guy was stunned when he heard Zhao Ming's words.

"Thirty-five times! The shopkeeper quickly brings the deed, we still have urgent matters, if we don't sell it, we will leave!" Zhao Ming saw that the other party did not react, afraid that the other party would find out, or be reminded by that guy, so he hurriedly increased the price again, and threatened to leave, and also set off to make a posture to leave.

Sure enough, the shopkeeper whose brain is still in a vague state at the moment, as soon as he heard Zhao Ming's offer, he immediately lost the ability to think, or did not want to think deeply, after all, this price is more than twice as high as the original price, and if he hesitates, he will face nothing, in this risk contrast, the shopkeeper hurriedly made a decision that he thought was correct: "Don't go!

Hearing this, Zhao Ming and the middle-aged man looked at each other and smiled, "I finally grabbed it!"

And the guy who saw this qiē seemed to be aware of the result he wanted, and without greeting the shopkeeper, he rushed out.

Such a scene was staged in the tooth shops all over the city, but some of the tooth shop shopkeepers reacted quickly, immediately realized that something was wrong and stopped the transaction, and hurriedly sent people out to investigate, or the two parties did not seize the fleeting opportunity, so it was not successful every time.

It's just that after this incident, the rumor that has just spread for less than half an hour can be regarded as completely confirmed.

Only half an hour later, almost all the merchants in the city and the shopkeepers of the various tooth shops learned of the news, and those who responded quickly were naturally happy, and the regret of those who did not react to the shopkeepers could not change this fact.

And as the exact news came out, the reactions of all the forces that were really involved in this game of chess were shock and anger without exception.

What shocked was the Southeast Maritime Business Group, in the study where the big boss of the Qinglong Gang was located, after listening to the news reported by his subordinates, the big boss of the Qinglong Gang showed a trace of abruptness and bitterness on his face: "I see! Ye Kai, Ye Kai! Your old puppet, you are really quick to react!"

At the same time, in the courtyard of the Qian family, after Qian Xiaojing received the report from his subordinates, he also showed a helpless look, and kept sighing: "Ye Kai, this old guy, is still moving so fast!"

The same exclamation is constantly being staged in the various families of the Southeast Maritime Business Group.

At this point, the Zhenhai Gang's abnormal audit behavior yesterday was finally explained, Ye Kai was one step ahead of others to detect the purpose of the Seven Sects and Five Surnames, and successfully concealed all the people, grabbed ahead of them, and intervened himself.

It's just that although they sighed, and even secretly scolded Ye Kai for not being righteous, they were helpless, even Qian Xiaojing, the so-called alliance leader, couldn't accuse Ye Kai of anything, because they all knew that if they changed places, they would all make the same choice. It can only be said that the skills are not as good as others!

Of course, they still guessed one thing wrong, in their eyes, the seven sects and five surnames that belonged to the pioneer party were the most miserable people today.

In the courtyard where the Lu family brothers were, Lu Zongbao's anger at this moment was already like a monstrous tsunami.

"Cui Jianyu, you old puppet, I cāo your Cui family ancestor !!"

It's really like a cuckoo crying blood, and the heart of the listener is sad!

"Ahhh

"I'm not reconciled!

Lu Zongbao struggled to stand up, screaming in the sky, his eyes were round, like a mad tiger, there was even a trace of blood hanging from the corner of his mouth, and there was a pool of bright red blood stains on his sleeves.

It was Lu Zongbao, who had not slept all night and was upset and irritable, after hearing that the subordinate who came to report just now had finished talking about the rumors in the city, his eyes were dark, and he spewed out a mouthful of blood before falling to the ground.
