Chapter 144: Wuyi City

In the early morning, as soon as the sky receded, the night shrouded, two tall painted red carts stopped in front of the guide stone stele, and the ten-zhang high limestone stele was engraved with three big characters Wuyi City. A simple tea shop in front of the guide monument has already cooked cooked meat, and the soup aroma of two large pots of cooked meat can attract the hungry Xuanjie, more than a dozen neat guest tables with simple rest, and the old man in simple clothes is moving wine. When Zhang Hanlin got out of the car, he nodded to Yun Yi and took Xuan Jie to the tea shop: The meat is on it.

The shopkeeper smiled after hearing this: Come on, son, you wait. The shopkeeper hurriedly cut the meat and served the wine.

Yun Yi helped Yuechan out of the car and looked at Wuyi City, ten miles away. Blue chimneys were erected under the mist, and the early risers of this boundless city were aware of the boundless city, deep between the two mountains, blurring the form of the building as the distance narrowed. You can only look at the nearby Qilou buildings up close, the blue-gray stone masonry of the 20-zhang high city wall, the eight-story attic with a large dovetail arch bucket eaves, and the blue-gray clay fired tiles stand in the wind. The difference between the city tower and other urban areas is the hemispherical courtyard that extends outward, highlighting the great beauty of this city, resisting interference from the outside world, and even the city gate is prevented by double roads. After appreciating for a while, he and Yuechan came to the tea shop and sat down with Xuan Jie, Zhang Hanlin chewed and ate the sliced meat slowly, and Xuan Jie ate more than 20 bowls in a big gulp. The little old man in the tea shop smiled and stepped forward to make wine for Yun Yi and Yuechan, looked at Xuan Jie and said with a smile: Son, you eat slowly!

After hearing this, Yuechan smiled and said: Old man, my virtuous brother has a generous skin and intestines, please put on the meat so that he can eat enough. He summoned a small silver ingot and handed it to the little old man, who took it and said with a smile: "It's the first time for the little old man to meet such a guest with skin and intestines, and it's really a blessing for food!"

Zhang Hanlin laughed when he heard it and said: The old man praised it falsely!

For more than half an hour, the red light in the east gradually thinned, and the sun gradually rose to white, dissipating the golden light through the clouds and mist. After Xuan Jie drank the broth in the bowl, he smiled: Brother and sister-in-law, I'm full! Yuechan summoned another ingot of silver and put it on the small guest table, and the little old man was already standing aside dumbfounded. Hearing the neighing of Yun Yi driving the horse, he came to his senses and hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and the two large pots of meat did not have a single piece of meat except for the soup.

Two Pegasus Express cars came to a halt in front of the city gates, followed by two servants with a familiar face. Yun Yi pulled the horse to stop the car, and Yuechan probed out, it turned out that Xu Liang brought a servant to answer. Only then did Yun Yi help him get out of the car, and the two servants drove the carriage into the city first. After Xu Liang saluted the four people: The second master sent a letter to come, and the second shopkeeper was afraid that you would not be able to find a place here, so he asked me to pick up the time, and estimated that it would arrive today, and I would get up early and come over on time.

Yun Yi smiled: Let's go, let's talk while walking! A few people entered the city at this time. The further you go in the city, the denser the people become, the gorgeous dresses are mixed and matched among people of all colors, the hair is yellow like gold, and the red is like fire. The wide criss-crossing avenues are clean and tidy, full of people of different colors, groups of horse-drawn carts pulling goods, some strolling and walking, some stopping and carrying them by long-term workers.

After appreciating the local customs, Yun recalled: What are the intentions of Chen Yu to buy the house there?

Xu Liang smiled: They are all in the shop, in the middle of the East and West Avenue, knowing that you are coming today, they are ready to wait for you to arrive at the unveiling and opening.

Yun Yi smiled after hearing this, and followed Xu Liang, and walked for more than an hour before he saw a statue with a heroic posture and a book in his hand, Xu Liang stepped forward with a smile: Brother, this is the center of Wuyi City. That stone statue is the first city lord of Wuyi City, and Wuyi City reached a consensus with the state under his leadership, and after the trade, Wuyi City slowly expanded until the current Wuyi City. Therefore, in order to commemorate him, the people of Wuyi City erected this image for him in the center.

After Yun Yi approached on foot, he was in a hurry to admire the three-zhang tall elephant before he came, and was attracted by the soldiers and crowd surrounding him to the west. Yun Yi smiled: Xu Liang, why are there so many people and soldiers coming to watch.

Xu Liang thought for a while: No, today is the day when our shop opens, how can the soldiers come to watch.

When Yun Yi heard this, the five people came to the crowd quickly, and when they saw that there were more than one person who surrounded them, there were thousands of people who surrounded the five-storey twenty shops. The two-zhang long signboard on the storefront is still hung with red cloth, and Chen Yu and Shen Qiugao are standing in front of the shop. On the opposite side of the avenue, on a large chair, sat a red-haired man in his early forties, dressed in a purple coat and robe, and behind him were more than 200 disciples of the sect dressed in gray clothes and uniform costumes.

Yun Yi knew that he was here to make trouble, so he and Yuechan came to Chen Yu, and after Chen Yu finished saluting, Yun Yi looked at the thief-faced man: What's the matter?

Chen Yu stepped forward: Son, this is from Xiyi Sect, that person is called Xiqing is a low-level official of Xiyi Sect, and he has been making trouble since we put down these twenty shops at a high price. said that it would affect their shop 500 steps to the west, and the kind words persuaded us were not allowed to open.

After hearing this, Yun Yi said: What kind of sect is this Xiyi Sect?

Chen Yu whispered: The owner is a medium-sized sect, but it is just a closer point to the Wuhui Sect.

Yun Yi nodded after hearing this: Open. Everyone came out and stood under the plaque, and Chen Yu was about to pull the red cloth when he was stopped by the guy: Slow, I said you can go to other streets to open shops, but this street can't.

When Xuan Jie heard this, he smiled and stepped forward: I said big brother, you dare to sit and talk to my eldest brother, that is, you directly smashed the chair of Xiqingzuo with one foot.

The disciples behind Xiqing hurriedly helped Xiqing who fell to the ground to pick him up, and after Xuanjie returned to Yun Yi's side, Chen Yu took a step forward: Fellow villagers and elders, all the shopkeepers of the business, this is the owner of our family, and the next one is our second son. Today is the auspicious day of the opening of our Honghu firm, and we don't want anyone to come here to mess around, otherwise if the owner is unhappy and blames me, then don't blame me Chen Yu for letting you kneel down and my firm come to plead.

Na Xiqing took a step forward after standing up: I don't care what your business name is, if you dare to open it, I will dare to tear down your plaque today.

Yun Yi stopped Chen Yu when he heard it and said loudly: "Is it Chen Yu, there are several businesses in Xiyi Sect, go and tear down all his plaques for me and take them here." After hearing this, Shen Qiu stepped forward and raised his right hand, a column of blue fireworks exploded in the air, and the servants brought a chair for Yun Yi to serve tea.

After Yun Yi tasted a few sips of tea under the seat, the first plaque was taken by Shen Qiu and placed in front of Yun Yi, followed by two until the twentieth plaque arrived. Na Xi Qingqi gritted his teeth and pointed at Yun Yi: Good boy, dare to offend Xiyi Sect, don't want to get out of this Wuyi City alive!

As soon as Xuan Jie heard that he was going to beat Na Xiqing and was stopped by Yuechan, Chen Yu stepped forward: My Honghu business is not much, there are many people, and the owner said that you want this plaque to go back, so let you supervise the steward. If no one comes to pick it up for an hour, our second son will use him in the back kitchen as dry firewood.

Na Xiqing wanted to step forward, but suddenly a man in a purple robe came, the man's red hair and face were only in his early thirties, and his appearance was still beautiful. Na Xiqing hurriedly saluted, and after the man stood up, he said with a cold face: "The owner of Honghu Firm, what do you mean by letting you move all my signboards here!"

Chen Yu stepped forward: The name of the owner is Xi Meng, and he is the senior steward of the Xiyi Sect, responsible for the shops and low cash cabinets in the city.

Yun Yi nodded after hearing this: You go and deal with him.

Chen Yu stepped forward: "Steward Xi, today is the first business of my Honghu firm to open in your land, and your people say that it will affect your business, what do you mean by demolishing our plaque?"

Naxi smiled fiercely: I only let the people come to negotiate the purchase of this shop, and say, How much money are you willing to sell the shop.

As soon as Yuechan heard this, she nodded to Zhang Hanlin, and Zhang Hanlin stepped forward: I am Zhang Hanlin, the third shopkeeper of Honghu Firm, and I have a good intention to listen to the words of the western manager, I am a businessman who is not as good as this. Since you use the money to buy our shops, then can I use the money to buy your twenty shops, if you can, I want you to go back and discuss with your sect master, and I will also accept your sect mansion.

As soon as Zhang Hanlin's words stopped, all the sects present were secretly sentinel, and the people in the neighboring urban areas were boiling all of a sudden. Na Xiqing was furious: A shopkeeper dares to come out and provoke my sect, I see that you are impatient.

Yun Yi put down the tea bowl and stood up when he heard this: It seems that it is impossible for you to get back these twenty plaques today, I only ask once if you let me open the door today.

Xi Meng said with a cold face: Don't get out of the way.

Yun Yi smiled after hearing this: Everyone listened and went to Xiyi Sect with the banner on their shoulders. Chen Yu knew that Yun Yi was angry: Second son, then bother you to capture this fight! As soon as the words fell, Xuan Jie jumped out and smashed it down. Seeing that he couldn't dodge, Nasi summoned a shield, only to listen to the bell... With a loud bang, the shield scattered and shattered, and Na Ximeng was directly knocked unconscious by Xuan Jie's punch.

Chen Yu called more than a dozen carriages, closed the shop, and Xuan Jie grabbed Xi Meng to stand on Chen Yu's first car, and quickly led the way in front. All the way up the onlookers all know Xi Meng, since he was caught by a child in his hands, he was a fast horse and the city brushed to receive the news, and he also followed more than 200 people in different clothes. Accompanied by the convoy of Yun Yi, they sent each other out of the West City Gate and came to the gate of Xiyi Sect Mountain a few miles away.

As soon as the disciples saw it, they immediately went to spread the word, and when Yun Yi got out of the car, the more than 200 people scattered and disappeared. More than a dozen people from Yun Yi stood in front of the blue-gray five-door archway and waited, just admiring the mansion of Xiyi Sect. Above the simple archway of the five doors is a two-zhang long bluestone plaque, and the seal book Xiyizong is three words. Along the limestone platform, you can clearly see the outline of the Xiyi Sect's meeting hall, and the six-story attic-style hall blocks the six halls in the back row. On both sides are small palaces that meander and twist, the high bottom of the Yan Mountain Range is undulating, and there are more than ten bluestone pagodas in the west rear.

Xuan Jie wanted to carry Xi Meng up but was stopped by Yun Yi: Brother Xian, everything listens to me, we are here to talk before the soldiers. If they don't explain the archway and the mansion today, you can smash it for me.

Chen Yu thought about it and stepped forward: The owner, then they don't come out to pick it up?

Yun Yi smiled: We are waiting here, we are knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger today, but we are not here to fight. The purpose is just to deter, of course, the first soldier and then the salute is nothing more than an apology. If we can win one sect, then other sects will also sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, which is a good thing for us, not a bad thing. Is there a specific situation of Xiyi Sect?

Chen Yu took a deep breath: an elder, a sect master, ten senior stewards, thirty-one thousand disciples, and the backstage is Wuhui Sect.

Yun Yi smiled: Don't be afraid, my second shopkeeper can't beat us, then it will be open on an auspicious day, I am very satisfied with the location, and I will buy more than a dozen restaurants for him next door.

Everyone talked and laughed and stood for half an hour but no one came out, and Na Ximeng woke up and wanted to break free from Xuan Jie's hand, but was slapped by Xuan Jie and fainted.

Yun Yi saw that no one came out, so Yun Yi looked at Chen Yu: Did you bring the banner of the firm?

Shen Qiu stepped forward and summoned a lotus yellow flag, and without embroidering the Staff of Judgment, it was given to Yun Yi.

Yun Yi stepped forward and projected the flag with his arm hard, and the flag cut through the sky and went straight to the main hall of the Xiyi Sect.
