Chapter 41: Recent Situation of the Jade Family
"What is the current situation of the Yu family? This magistrate, you are asking the right person to ask Xiao Lao'er. ”
In the Zhangjia Teahouse, an old man with gray hair sat on the stage, wearing a blue coat, crossed Erlang's legs, and took a slow sip of tea, and then continued: "In the last book, we talked about the insidious and cunning seizure of people's land, bullying and dominating the market. Today, I'm going to tell you about the next time, which is about the Yu family's audacity to steal treasures, regardless of people's livelihood and selfishness, snap!"
The old man slapped the pineapple awakening wood, which immediately attracted everyone's applause.
"Guest officer, please. ”
Walking into the door of the Zhangjia Teahouse, Xiao Er, who was wearing a coarse cloth short coat, immediately greeted him, Shang Luo followed Xiao Er to the second floor, and pointed to the platform downstairs and said curiously: "Which one is this talking about today? Why have you never heard of it?"
Shang Qinghou likes to collect ancient books, but he is also interested in folk art, Xingluo has a collection of common words all over the country, Shang Luo read a lot when he first crossed to recuperate, but he never heard what the old man just said.
"Guest officer, you haven't been to the merchant town for a long time, now, this jade family is the most popular book in our merchant town, our shopkeeper personally tells the story, you can't forget it, you still want to hear it." ”
"Then will you forget? or won't?" After finding a vacant seat by the window on the second floor and sitting down, Shang Luo looked vaguely at the Tianxiang Building opposite.
According to the uncle who sells cheese lotus, the people from all ethnic groups in Xingluo who come to the merchant town are basically in Tianxianglou, although he tried to enter it just now, but was told by the guard at the door to suspend business, so he had to come to this Zhangjia teahouse to rest and listen to the news.
Xiao Er smiled embarrassedly, picked up the towel on his back and wiped the table, and said, "The villain is stupid and said the wrong thing, and I ask the guest officer to forgive me." ”
"It's okay, I'm just joking. Shang Luo took out a silver ingot from his sleeve and put it on the table, and gently pushed it over: "Ask you a few words, answer well, the silver belongs to you." ”
"Thank you, thank you, thank you. Seeing such a large amount of silver ingots, Xiao Er's eyes widened.
"Don't thank you yet, the money doesn't belong to you yet. Shang Luo shook his head and asked, "First of all, tell me what is going on downstairs? This jade family is the jade family full of gold and jade?"
On this point, he is actually quite curious.
There are hundreds of families in the Xingluo Plain, large and small, and the number of 100 characters is approximate, and the actual number is more than 100.
Among so many families, the Jade family undoubtedly belongs to the strongest column. If the storyteller downstairs is really talking about the jade family known as the golden and jade hall, then this courage will inevitably be a little bigger.
Xingluo is not the United States in his previous life, and no one cares about you if he insults the president.
Once there is a person or thing that insults the family's reputation, the humiliated family will swear an oath to go to war at all costs.
He remembered that there was a small clan surnamed Zhi in the past, located in the west, because he was angry in public, insulting the ancestors of the merchants, and finally was secretly guarded by the head of the merchant family at that time, and he did not hesitate to flee thousands of miles away to destroy the whole clan.
Hearing the question, Xiao Er, who was still a little apprehensive with an expression, suddenly brightened his eyes and said: "If you ask something else, the villain really doesn't know, but my aunt happens to be working in the Shang Mansion and knows some inside information, so you can be regarded as asking the villain the right person." ”
"Let's talk about it. Shang Luo pointed to the chair and motioned for Xiao Er to sit down.
"Thank you, officer. After Xiao Er sat down, his eyes stared at the silver ingots on the table, for fear that the silver would disappear, and began to whisper: "If the guest officer had been to our merchant town before, he should have known that there was a starlight landing in Tianxing Mountain near our merchant town, but recently the starlight disappeared, and it was the Yu family who did it." ”
"What did the Yu family do?"
"Not bad. Xiao Er nodded: "I heard that there was a treasure in Tianxing Mountain, and then the Yu family sent someone to steal the treasure, for this reason, the eldest master of our merchant mansion had a big temper, and I heard my aunt say that he hadn't eaten for several days." The book that our shopkeeper said was said to have been compiled by the lord of the Shang Mansion, just to disgust the Yu family. ”
Shang Luo nodded, he had already expected in his heart, arranging the Yu family was not something that the shopkeeper of a teahouse had the courage to do, the merchant town was the territory of the merchants, and it was obviously impossible to say that there was no merchant behind him.
"It's just that this method is not very glamorous. Shang Luo sighed in his heart, but it was not incomprehensible, although the development of the merchant town was good, it was far from the Yu family, and the master of the merchant mansion was obviously helpless, so he had to vent his anger through this means.
"Could it be that the yellow-robed Hanhan I saw in Tianxing Mountain is the Yu family?" his heart moved, Shang Luo silently thought, according to the current posture, I am afraid that the merchant has already determined that the theft of Xingyuan Baolian was committed by the Yu family, otherwise if there is doubt, he will not tear his face in a hurry.
"It's no wonder, after all, the Star Yuan Baolian is gone, I'm afraid that the Tianxing Stone will be gone in the future, and the merchant will not kill in front of the Yu family, which is already reasonable. ”
"But guest officer, I heard that the Yu family has not been doing well recently. Xiao Er said suddenly.
"Tell me. ”
"The White Python King, one of the top ten demon beasts in Tianxing Mountain, the guest officer knows, right?" Seeing Shang Luo nodding, Xiao Er continued: "I heard from the people who have entered the city in recent days that the White Python King has already gone to settle accounts with the Yu family, and it is a big white python far away. ”
Xiao Er gestured with his hand, with a hint of excitement on his face: "And it's not just the White Python King, the snakes on Tianxing Mountain have gone." My good man, so many snakes, it seeps people just thinking about it. ”
"That's a good point. A flash of surprise flashed in Shang Luo's eyes, and he relaxed.
Not only the merchants, but even the White Python King has identified the Yu family, and the Yu family can't be washed even if he jumps into the Yellow River, originally he was worried that the people behind the yellow robe Hanhan would come to investigate, but now it seems that the Yu family itself is a mud bodhisattva crossing the river and it is difficult to protect itself.
Don't look at Shang Wu easily killed the Flame Lion, who is also one of the top ten demon beasts, but who is Shang Wu?
Suspected of being a reborn boss.
If you really take Shangwu as the standard, your brain will be funny.
The ten major demon beasts of Tianxing Mountain have each lived for hundreds of years, if they were really so easy to deal with, the Xingluo Hundred Clans would have solved them a long time ago.
"There is another thing, Tianxiang Mansion is closed, do you know the reason?" Shang Luonu turned his mouth out of the window.
Outside the window, opposite the Zhangjia Teahouse, a huge restaurant occupies nearly half of the street, and a huge plaque "Tianxianglou" hangs above.
The three words dragon flying and phoenix dancing, without losing the majestic atmosphere, the realm is lofty, there is everyone's atmosphere, even if Shangluo [calligraphy] has been upgraded to LV1, but you can't write this kind of good words.
On the contrary, because of reading this word, the progress of [calligraphy] in the list in my mind has increased by 3%.
As the largest restaurant in the merchant town, behind Tianxiang Lou is the merchant house.
Looking from afar, Yuyu Qiong Building, carved beams and painted buildings, pavilions and water pavilions, and bucket arches are inherited.
There are cyan glazed tiles covering the roof, and there are colorful canopies hanging high, and the red carpet is paved with golden lotus.
The pleasant sound of silk and bamboo came from the continuous building complex, the beautiful jade hook railing, carved railing and jade masonry, extremely luxurious.
The one-person-tall purple jade Pixiu stood in front of the door, and there was a series of warriors wearing battle armor standing at the door.
It is said that there is also a lake in the building, which is called Bixin.
The building around the lake shows that the business is wealthy.
