Chapter Twenty-Four: Things Are Troublesome
It's been two days since I arrived in Anduma, and the fatigue on the road has eased. And Tang Dou and they gradually began to like the pearl in the desert.
"Come on, try it, this is Anduma's famous desert food, Moshaca!" Edward greeted Tang Dou warmly.
Tang Dou and his party are now in the Shangxiang Chamber of Commerce branch of Anduma, although they have forgotten about Tang Dou and their killing of Immorton, but Edward and Donald both remember Tang Dou's help to them, and they know that if it weren't for Tang Dou, they would have only died. So both of them were very grateful to Tang Dou, and after they told the people of the Anduma branch of the Shangxiang Chamber of Commerce, Tang Dou's identity could be said to be rising.
Shangxiang Chamber of Commerce's branch in Anduma has ten doctors stationed all year round, and it is also the only medical hall in Anduma. Therefore, the reputation of the Andu Ma Shangxiang Chamber of Commerce is very good, even the Duwei Mansion will not embarrass the Shangxiang Chamber of Commerce, and will even take the initiative to protect them.
After all, the most populous people in the entire Anduma are still those ordinary people who are not soul cultivators. And generally speaking, soul cultivators will not get sick, and it is not absolute, some soul cultivators will get sick for some strange reasons, and they also need a doctor at this time, of course, there are very few extreme cases.
However, even if it is the support of ordinary people, it can keep the Shangxiang Chamber of Commerce safe. The people of Duwei Mansion are not fools, if they force the ordinary people below who are not soul cultivators to rebel, then they will suffer in the end.
Although the soul cultivator is a person who stands at the top of the social pyramid of the Thousand Souls Spirit Realm, the upper class people need the support of the lower class people, and the lower class people may be better off without the upper class people. Therefore, the high-level people in the Thousand Souls Spirit Realm knew very well that they could exploit the lower-level people, but they couldn't force the lower-level people to rebel.
In fact, in the Thousand Souls Spirit Realm, the attitude of the upper class towards the lower class is still relatively good, and even ordinary nobles rarely maliciously bully the lower class.
In Anduma, there are so many things that need to be done by ordinary people, and it can be said that without ordinary people, then Anduma cannot function. Therefore, the Duwei Mansion is very good to ordinary people, and the Shangxiang Chamber of Commerce, which is supported by ordinary people, is naturally the object of protection by the Duwei Mansion.
When Edward and the others came to Anduma, they had already gone to the Duwei Mansion to report. Although they also listened to Tang Dou's analysis, they knew that most of the incidents this time had some unclear relationship with the Duwei Mansion, but they still had to do the superficial work, if they didn't do it, wouldn't it be tantamount to telling the Duwei Mansion that they were already suspicious?
So on the day of arrival, Donald and the manager of the Anduma branch went to the Duwei Mansion to report, and the Duwei Mansion also showed great importance and immediately sent people and messenger eagles, but what the final result was, that is, no one knows.
The doctors in the Anduma branch of the Shangxiang Chamber of Commerce are changed every three years, after all, these doctors have families in the mainland, and the desert trip is extremely dangerous, and no one wants to take their families to adventure together, and it is naturally inhumane to separate the doctors' families for many years, so there is a rule of changing every three years.
However, Minos, the manager of the branch, has been living in Anduma for 40 years, and has married a beautiful local, so it can be said that he has been completely assimilated by the locals.
While Tang Dou was eating, Minos, who had gone out early in the morning, came back.
"Still no news, and I don't know what happened to Hyperion!" Minos is over sixty years old, but for the humans of the Thousand Souls Spirit Realm, this is still the prime of life, and the perennial life in the desert has also sharpened him like a rough situation like a desert, with a big bearded face, a white cloth wrapped around his head, and a height of two meters, which looks like an iron tower.
"I hope they have God's blessing. This time we didn't expect the Sand Wolf Thieves to deal with us specifically. If we hadn't encountered a sandstorm, I am afraid we would not have been here! Edward sighed.
"In fact, according to Brother Di's arrangement, it is very likely that Hyperion and they will survive. Except for those crazy sand wolf thieves, there will be no one in this desert to deal with our Shangxiang Chamber of Commerce! Minos said in a deep voice, he was able to become the manager of the branch because of his means, and the Shangxiang caravan at the beginning could not gain a foothold in Anduma at all, because Anduma was more xenophobic, and the relationship between the Shangxiang Chamber of Commerce and the Zijin royal family was too close, so the people of the Duwei Mansion did not believe them.
As a result, it took Minos three years to finally gain the trust of the Duwei Mansion, which allowed the branch to open. Therefore, Anduma's branch exists because of Minos, and if the Shangxiang Chamber of Commerce dares to change Minos, I'm afraid that this branch will not be able to open immediately. It's useless for ordinary people to support them anymore, Duwei Mansion is really determined to rectify them, and they will definitely not leave any evidence to make them ruined.
It is precisely because Minos is a man with means that he is very analytical, and after listening to Edward's relays of Tang Dou's arrangement, he thought about it all night, and finally found that if he was the one who made the arrangement at that time, he was afraid that he would make the same arrangement.
"Aside from that, it's more important now to have an auction. Isn't there any news from that mystery man yet? Donald asked in a deep voice.
Minos shook his head: "I don't know what that guy thinks, he actually took that thing to the auction, and it was better than whose Dongzhu was on the spot." This is simply child's play, so even if you get the Nine Leaves Heavenly Ginseng, who can keep it? ”
Edward and Donald didn't look good. They thought that this time it was a secret transaction, and after it was completed, they would go back to the interior of Zijin by water, but they didn't expect that the person who had the Nine Leaves Heavenly Ginseng suddenly changed his mind and wanted to do it by auction, and he actually got the support of the Duwei Mansion.
"Now our situation is that even if we get the Nine Leaves Heavenly Ginseng, we can't take it away. Our strength here is too weak. In Anduma, you may still be able to keep the power of the fake Duwei Mansion, but as soon as Anduma is out, those ghosts and ghosts will appear! Minos said in a huff.
"I've already written to Mademoiselle about the situation here. Ask her to send a master, I hope it can be useful! Edward let out a long sigh.
"Brother Di, do you have any solutions?" Minos looked at Tang Dou, who was pretending to be dumb and eating violently.
Tang Dou put down the moshaka cake in his hand, sighed lightly, and said, "The current situation is that the owner of the Nine Leaves Heavenly Ginseng deliberately wants to cause chaos. I think the road after this is enough to choke. As for the solution, there is only one way that is not a way! ”
"Tell me about it!" The three Minos were all blinded.
Tang Dou rubbed his hands and said with an embarrassed face: "There are two prerequisites for this method!" First, you want your young lady to really be able to send a high enough master. Second, be shameless enough! ”
Minos frowned: "Brother Di, don't you mean that?" ”
Tang Dou nodded: "That's it's 'won't be'." If we exchange Dongzhu for nine-leaf ginseng, then we will be exposed to everyone's eyes. Unless your eldest lady can get a jade or diamond-level super master, even if you send a platinum ninth-level one, you will be killed by people using crowd tactics. You must know how important the meaning of the Nine Leaves Heavenly Ginseng represents, no matter what level it is, it will be upgraded by one level without side effects, that is, the more attractive this thing is to the more master people! ”
"In this way, God knows how many masters will be attracted to come out. It's good that this is in Anduma, if this happens in the Purple Gold Emperor Capital, I guarantee that the masters of the entire continent will run over. So if we really want to change, we have to be prepared to be targeted in public. If you don't have this preparation, you have to be a yellow finch! Although there will be a lot of yellow finch, it is precisely because there are many yellow finch, so if we succeed, then there is a great chance that it will disappear from everyone's sight. ”
"Is this good?" Edward hesitated. He is an honest businessman, and he is somewhat unaccustomed to doing this kind of black and black thing.
"That's why I also say it's just a way to go! Of course, the best way is not to care about this nine-leaf ginseng, but to think of other ways! Tang Dou shrugged.
"Well, it's not impossible. Lady Rhea was afraid she wouldn't be able to hold out for long. Did we just watch her go away? Edward said bitterly.
"But the question is, even if we succeed in obtaining the Nine Leaf Heavenly Ginseng, and return to the Purple Gold Imperial Capital with the Nine Leaf Heavenly Ginseng, and cure Lady Rhea, but are you ready for the disaster afterward?" Tang Dou said.
"What disaster?" Edward's three faces were confused.
Tang Dou shook his head and sighed: "You really haven't thought about anything." Think about it, how did the sand wolf thief know that you got a top-grade Dongzhu to exchange for a nine-leaf ginseng? Let's not talk about whether there are traitors in your own situation, I think Mrs. Rhea has a strange disease, it is very likely that only Jiuye Tianshen can cure this matter, there should be many people who know! ”
The three Edwards nodded.
"Isn't that right? Since there are many people who know about this. So if Lady Rhea is well, what do you think everyone thinks? Of course, it will be thought that the Shangxiang Chamber of Commerce has obtained the Nine Leaves Heavenly Ginseng. So the question is, do you need a whole nine-leaf ginseng to treat Lady Rhea? And what about the rest? Or, even if the whole pill is eaten by Lady Rhea, is it possible to absorb all the medicinal properties in a short period of time and transform them? So in a certain period of time, what is the difference between Mrs. Rhea and Yaoding? You haven't heard the rumors of that Jiuyao Tongling Meat Zhi Medicine Ding. ”
"Although many people pay attention to that Yaoding, there is no specific news, so I don't know where to start. But once Lady Rhea also becomes a medicine pod, what do you think will happen? "Only a guy like Tang Da Slut will take himself as an example, and he is completely bullying others who don't know him.
However, his words made the faces of the three Edwards change dramatically in an instant. (To be continued.) )
