Chapter 53: Yunhe is missing
The people of the Zheng family echoed and attacked Tang Songshan:
"Two million two hundred thousand silk gold? It's so generous! The Tang family really likes to slap a swollen face and be a fat man, haha!" Zheng Qing teased. Zheng Qing was one of the younger elders of the Zheng family, around forty years old, and he spoke frivolously.
"I'm afraid that the fat man Tang family is going bankrupt this time, right?" another elder named Zheng Dart sneered.
As soon as the two elders said this, the laughter in the audience rose and fell.
The Zheng family had the cheekiness to say that the two million dollars to repay the debt were silk gold? It was really despicable! For a moment, Tang Songshan's face turned pale with anger, and he pointed at Zheng Yi and scolded: "You ......
Zheng Yi sneered insidiously: "The head of the Tang family, although I can't be a family without a chance, but the 2.2 million silk gold is really courteous, and my Zheng family is very grateful! Come on, send off!"
"Hmph!" Tang Songshan was so angry that his bones in his whole body rattled, but he didn't dare to attack. In terms of realm, he is still not Zheng Yi's opponent, and now he is in Zheng Mo's mourning hall, and he has no basis to reason for his own losses. Besides, if you endure it, you can drag it out for two months, and if you can't bear it, the Tang family will suffer immediately. I've endured it all my life, is it still this time?
However, these two million are almost all of the Tang family's flexible funds in the near future! It will not be so easy to scrape together a sum of money to repay debts in the future! Tang Songshan's heart aches!
Tang Songshan was faceless, and pulled Tang Zixi away in a gloomy manner. As the head of the family, this is a real loss of face. If you don't come, you will be ridiculed, and if you come, you will be bullied again. Now the whole world believes that the Tang family is not only a swollen face and a fat man, but also a soft persimmon.
Tang Zixi was angry and helpless in her heart. If two months later, she can pass the assessment and become the protégé of the alchemy master Mu Xueyi, the Tang family will have the backing, how dare the Zheng family bully the Tang family like this? She once again strengthened her determination to become an alchemist.
"Tang Songshan, can you endure this? What a shrunken turtle! No wonder the Tang family will decline in your hands!" Zheng Yi was very disdainful.
Zheng Mo lost his life because of the Tang family, and it was normal for Zheng Yi not to want to see the people of the Tang family at the funeral. As for the two million that pit the Tang family, Zheng Yi did it on purpose!
The Zheng family uses the production of Chiyan Crystal Ore as the main source of income, and Chiyan Crystal is the raw material for minting Chiyan coins, which can bring more than two million net income to the Zheng family every month. However, just ten days ago, the veins suddenly dried up. Now the Zheng family is short of funds.
Zheng Yi never dreamed that this was done by Yan Shaoqin!
Since it was found out that the Zheng family had suppressed the Tang family, Yunhe decided to take action against the Zheng family. Zheng Mo ambushed Tang Zixi in the woods, Yunhe was injured in order to save Tang Zixi, and Yan Shaoqin did not return for a long time, so he went to the Zheng family's mineral vein.
He sneaked in and used the space ring to collect all the Chiyan crystals that could be put away, and then shattered the mine eye. The ore eye is the source of ore generation, and when the ore hole is broken, the ore source will be broken.
Yunhe originally thought that if there was a fire in the backyard of the Zheng family, he would have no time to control the Tang family, but he didn't expect that if he did this, it would make the Zheng family dog jump off the wall in a hurry.
The dragon pattern eight immortal fruit was not grabbed, the eldest grandson died young, the ore vein was broken again, the income plummeted, and the entire Zheng family was about to collapse. Zheng Yi was as anxious as an ant in a hot pot, so he intensified his efforts to squeeze the Tang family, and tried to take all the assets of the Tang family as his own as soon as possible.
After saying that, three days later, Qiantong really went to Tang's house to find Tang Zixi as promised. Tang Zixi was very happy, and painted the form of the mixed yuan five-leaf ginseng for Qiantong to remember, and then took Qiantong and Yan Shaoqin to step into Shenmeng Mountain again.
Tang Zixi wanted to bring Qiantong to work in Flying Fox Valley. Flying Fox Valley's monthly salary is 50,000 yuan! As long as Qiantong works in Flying Fox Valley for half a month, the 20,000 yuan spent on buying him will be returned, and after working for a month, he will be able to save 30,000 yuan! In order to help make up for his family's income, Tang Zixi will not let go of any means that can save money.
Of course, in order to bring Thousand Hitomi into Flying Fox Valley, one must get a person's consent. That is the big housekeeper Yan Shaoqin.
Yan Shaoqin was mindful of Qiantong, and after hearing about Tang Zixi's plan, he was even more worried. On the way, he once pulled Tang Zixi aside and whispered: "Zixi, although Qiantong is already your servant, but his heart is separated from his belly, you have only known him for a few days, how do you know what he is like? Can't you tell him about the Mixed Yuan Five Leaf Ginseng so easily? You still want to let him enter Flying Fox Valley? This is really too risky, if he is an undercover agent sent by the Zheng family or the Hunter Guild, then the Tang family and Flying Fox Valley will suffer!"
"Brother Yan, I believe in Qiantong. His eyes are as clear as you and Yunhe, not like a bad guy!" Tang Zixi smiled.
"Zixi, you are too naïve!" Yan Shaoqin disagreed with Tang Zixi's opinion. Yan Shaoqin didn't feel that he was a good person. His hands were covered in blood. The so-called good guys and bad guys are just relative, depending on which side you stand on.
"Brother Yan, when we didn't know each other, you were willing to help me, and later introduced me to the good errand of farming, which was only a few days after we met. But you trust me very much, why are you willing to trust me, but you are not willing to trust Qiantong?" Tang Zixi said calmly.
"What's different!" Yan Shaoqin burst out.
"What's the difference?" Tang Zixi asked rhetorically.
"Eh...... "I can't say that you are the woman that the master likes, for the master's lifelong happiness, so I, Yan Shaoqin, will protect you even if I go out?"
"Master, if you don't trust me, you can take my life now. Qian Tong heard the conversation between the two, walked over, handed a knife to Tang Zixi, and said seriously: "Since the master has bought me, then my life is also the master's." ”
"Qiantong, it's nothing! don't think about it!" Tang Zixi Khan smiled and hurriedly put away Qiantong's knife.
"Anyway, we obviously spoke very quietly, how did Qiantong hear it? Could it be that Qiantong has an ear for the wind in addition to clairvoyance?" Tang Zixi was extremely embarrassed, so he had to change the topic.
"Master, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to eavesdrop. I don't have a tailwind, but I have good eyesight and know lip language, and I accidentally see what you're talking about. I promise not to peek at the host's conversation again in the future. Chitomi blushed and apologized.
In fact, he just glanced at it unintentionally, and when he looked at his lips, he found that it was mentioning himself, so he listened to two sentences, but he didn't expect that Yan Shaoqin didn't trust him. Suddenly, Chitomi's self-esteem was frustrated, and he took out his knife to show his loyalty.
"Qiantong, don't take a knife at every turn in the future, it's very dangerous!Do you know?" Tang Zixi said. She thought to herself: Qiantong is just a child, her temper is strong, she may have just been hit by the loss of her mother, and her mood has not eased yet, right? Thinking of this, Tang Zixi is very sympathetic to Qiantong.
"Okay, master. Chitomi respectfully agreed.
"Brother Yan, why do I think you always target Qiantong, is there a festival between you?" Tang Zixi said.
Qiantong sold himself to bury his mother, which was originally an act of filial piety, but Yan Shaoqin said that he was seeking comfort for himself, and it was useless to the deceased, so Qiantong knelt and cried on the spot. Now in a few words, he forced Qiantong to take a knife and kill himself?
"No, I don't have time to target one person. It's just a matter of judging things and rationally eliminating all hidden dangers. Yan Shaoqin didn't feel the slightest bit guilty. Because for Flying Fox Valley, the stranger of Thousand Hitomi is an unknown with risks.
"Qiantong, don't take what you just said to heart, it's still the same sentence, I believe you. Tang Zixi comforted him.
"Thank you, host...... You've done enough for me, Qiantong is a person who believes in his word and knows how to repay his kindness, and I will never betray my master in this life. Please rest assured, master!" said Chitomi firmly.
This is the second time that Tang Zixi has shown that he will trust himself, which makes Qiantong very moved. For the first time, Tang Zixi gave him 20,000 yuan at one time, so that he could bury his mother well and come to her again. Even if he broke his promise, Tang Zixi couldn't help him, because Tang Zixi didn't even make a contract.
Yan Shaoqin was silent. The thousand pupils of unknown origin continue to maintain a vigilant and suspicious attitude. It's okay to let him enter the Flying Fox Valley, just keep an eye on him, and if he shows the slightest misconduct, deal with him immediately!
Qiantong didn't know that the cautious Yan Shaoqin wanted to get rid of him and gain Tang Zixi's trust, so he behaved very hard. He looked at it at a glance, so that the efficiency of finding the spirit grass was greatly improved, Yan Shaoqin's martial arts were world-famous, and there was invincible backing when he fell into a dangerous place, and the three of them were not in danger, and within half a day, they found the second mixed yuan five-leaf ginseng, whose stems and leaves were luxuriant, enough to prepare pills for Yunhe, Tang Zixi was overjoyed, and immediately picked and collected it and rushed back to Flying Fox Valley.
The people of the Flying Fox Valley are clean and spiritual, and the paradise-like appearance makes Qiantong very shocked, especially since he has seen a lot of demon clans and humans working together! How come he has never heard of such a magical place in Qingtong County?
Qian Tong was full of curiosity about Flying Fox Valley, he had a lot of questions, but obviously now was not the time to ask these questions, because as soon as Tang Zixi returned to Flying Fox Valley, he heard a bad news, Yunhe was missing!
Jin Dou talked about the incident with trepidation......
In the past few days, Yunhe's injuries have been repeated, sometimes in a coma, sometimes with nightmares, sometimes with fever, and sometimes with painful panting, Twilight Xueyi in order to stabilize his condition, from time to time to give him soothing soup.
The little golden dragon has been guarding Yunhe, and after seeing that Yunhe was sleeping steadily, it ran to the kitchen to help Mu Xueyi decoct the medicine, but when he turned around, the quilt was lifted, and Yunhe, who was sleeping inside, was gone!
Jin Dou sent people to search all the places in Flying Fox Valley, but they didn't even see the shadow of Yunhe. The people of Flying Fox Valley were panicked and anxious, and some even cried so much that they cried out to the sky and the earth, such as the little golden dragon Yiyuan.
"Little Douzi, you say, will the master suddenly wake up and sneak out to find Xixi?" Xiao Jinlong asked Jindou while crying.
"If only it were like that......" Jin Dou rubbed his temples with a headache.
The problem is that Yunhe doesn't seem to run away on its own......
In order for Yunhe to sleep comfortably as much as possible, Mu Xueyi only let Yunhe wear a thin layer of underwear. Yunhe's clothes were still drying on the hangers in the room, and the shoes and socks under the seat were not worn. Although Yunhe likes to be unrestrained when he goes to bed, he will never be unkempt in front of people, and it is impossible for him to run out like this with his bare feet! Not to mention, Yunhe has just drunk the soothing soup, and it is impossible for him to wake up!
