Chapter 822: Giving Wine
Xiao Zhang smiled lightly and said, "The three major industries of Xuanyuan City were originally the industries of the empire, and they should contribute to the empire. ”
Xiao Zhang said this sentence quite horizontally, and the meaning of the first half of the sentence is that the three major industries are returned to their original owners, and as for the money they earn, they don't take a penny. This is to give the emperor a reassuring pill, this reassuring pill is very necessary, if not, Xiao Zhang's life after this may not be easy.
However, Xiao Zhang's real wealth is not the finished products of the three major industries, but some semi-finished products. To put it bluntly, Xuanyuan City's control of the three major industries in the south is already very mature, and there is not much potential to be tapped, and Xiao Zhang is interested in the resources in the north that have not been fully developed.
Obviously, Xiao Zhang is going to make some articles for the Heavenly Soul Sect, and he is not hypocritical, he just wants to copy the Xuanyuan Gate, if you want to be strong, you must be rich, and if you want to be rich, you must make your industry bigger and stronger.
And for this, Xiao Zhang has a full grasp, because he has obtained the essence of the three major industries in the south - the big boss of the three major industries.
When he was in Xuanyuan Gate, Xiao Zhang rescued the souls of the three big bosses from the dungeon and hid them in the soul snatching bag, and now he has found three ready-made bodies for the three big bosses, ready to let them borrow the corpses to return their souls.
After the makeover, the three big bosses are about to start exerting their skills in the Northern Continent, of course, in the name of the Heavenly Soul Sect, and the industries and wealth they operate also belong to the Heavenly Soul Sect.
If the wealth of the three major industries in the Southern Continent is spring water, then these three big bosses are the source, and with them, Xiao Zhang naturally will not care about the emperor's warning.
The emperor smiled with satisfaction: "Okay, Xiao Zhang, your contribution is not small, and you have established a solid financial foundation for the upcoming Western Expedition Demon Dao. ”
Xiao Zhang said: "Your Majesty has won the award, and the minister is just doing it." ”
The emperor laughed heartily and nodded, "This fourth merit is to recruit the Heaven and Earth Gang. You must know that the Heaven and Earth Gang has been a cancer in the Southern Continent for many years, and now it has finally been pacified, which is really gratifying!"
As soon as these words came out, even though Xiao Zhang's psychological quality was excellent, his face changed, could it be that the emperor wanted to fight the Heaven and Earth Gang again?
When it comes to money and industry, Xiao Zhang can contribute it without hesitation, because it is dead. And when it comes to people, Xiao Zhang will not contribute easily, because people are alive and can create countless industries and unlimited wealth.
The Heaven and Earth Gang is a big force under him, it can be the entire Xuanyuan Gate, and the emperor has just said it clearly, let Xiao Zhang be in charge of the affairs of Xuanyuan City, but now, why did he suddenly change his hexagram?
The emperor could naturally see Xiao Zhang's face, so he smiled and said: "Since the Heaven and Earth Gang has been recruited, it has become the power of the imperial court, as I said just now, it is still up to you to be responsible." ”
Xiao Zhang put his mind at ease, the emperor's meaning is very clear, that is, even if you are responsible, you can't do nonsense, otherwise the court will take back the power to you.
"Obey. Xiao Zhang bowed and said.
The emperor looked at Xiao Zhang quietly for a moment, and then said with a smile: "There is also a fifth merit, that is, you are a matchmaker for the Thirteen Princes and Xiao Cui, and you have achieved a new couple. ”
Xiao Zhang was shocked again, and said that he had never been a matchmaker, and that it was simply two people in free love. So, he was about to open his mouth to explain, but the emperor waved his hand to stop him.
The emperor did not continue the topic, and said concludingly: "Xiao Zhang, you have made five great achievements for the court and my imperial family, but I can't think of how to reward you for a while, so let's give you a glass of wine first." ”
The emperor's gift of wine is a great honor for the courtiers, because it means that the emperor is toasting the courtiers. Xiao Zhang naturally understood the meaning of this wine, so he immediately bowed down and thanked him.
The Emperor nodded, and then a eunuch entered the main hall with a golden tray in both hands, on which was placed an emerald green jade wine glass.
Then, the eunuch Wei Zhong picked up the wine glass from the tray, handed it to Xiao Zhang, and said with a smile: "Deputy Head Xiao?"
Xiao Zhang smiled faintly, and suddenly felt that the killing intent was getting stronger and stronger, he stabilized his mind and said, "Whatever." ”
"Okay, then let's call you Gang Master Xiao. "On Wei Zhong's bloated face, chrysanthemums bloomed," the name of the wine is called the bone-washing gold liquid, which is configured by the Tai Hospital for the exclusive use of the royal family. His Majesty's gift of this wine and his courtiers is a blessing for the courtiers to cultivate in three lives. ”
Xiao Zhang didn't have the heart to listen to Wei Zhong's ramblings, he raised his hand and took the wine glass, looked down, and sure enough, he saw that the wine was a faint golden yellow, and the whole body was translucent, even if he didn't drink alcohol, he would look very delicious.
However, the next moment, Xiao Zhang smelled a familiar smell from it, and the smell emanated from this wine, Xiao Zhang stared at the wine in the cup, and secretly sneered in his heart, it turned out that this killing intent came from this wine.
That smell, Xiao Zhang is indeed very familiar, it is the smell of a kind of elixir - Qi Scattering Pill.
The Qi Disperser Pill is Xiao Zhang's earliest contact with the pill, it was found from the Qiankun bag, although the ingredients of this pill are simple, and the refining is simple, it can be said to be Xiao Zhang's exclusive formula, outside of Xiao Zhang, there is no one on the mainland who knows this pill. And, of course, Zhuge Ming.
Therefore, when Xiao Zhang used the Qi Diffuser Pill before, it can be said that he has been hit by a hundred shots, and he has tried and tested repeatedly.
However, at this moment, how could the breath of the Qi Disperse Pill appear in the wine? Who had mastered Xiao Zhang's exclusive secret recipe?
Raising his head suddenly, Xiao Zhang looked at Wei Zhong, Wei Zhong's chrysanthemum-like face always had a smile on it, although that smile looked lowly and servile, it was very pure, and there was no killing intent.
Somehow, Xiao Zhang suddenly remembered a person, Zuo Dongling.
Xiao Zhang already knew that Zuo Dongling was now hidden in the palace, so could this Qi Scattering Pill be secretly placed by Zuo Dongling?
It was not unreasonable for Xiao Zhang to be so suspicious, back then in the Heavenly Soul Sect, Zuo Dongling had been paying attention to him from the beginning, and had even been studying him, so he might have already mastered Xiao Zhang's Qi Dissipation Pill formula.
So, where is Zuo Dongling hiding? and how did he place the Qi Pills in the Emperor's wine?
This wine is a gift from the emperor, and it must be drunk, otherwise it will be disrespectful and even a crime of bullying the king.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Xiao Zhang, everyone was envious, jealous and hateful, but they didn't know that Xiao Zhang was in a fierce psychological whirlpool.
In fact, to say that this Qi Dispersion Pill has no effect on Xiao Zhang, because he has no soul energy in his body at all, he cultivates spiritual power, and directly controls the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
And at this moment, he stared at the wine in the cup, thinking about where Zuo Dongling was hiding.
