Chapter 212: Mall
Shopping centre.
The business of the Lan family firm has been worse year by year, and the old shopkeeper turned around and walked into the Li family firm opposite after watching the guests take a turn in his own firm.
"Young Master He, the goods you ordered were finally collected by our Lan family firm, and at this time he suddenly said no, this is ...... That's not right. The old shopkeeper said, knowing in his heart that it was useless to say anything now, the Li family and the He family joined forces to trap their Lan family.
The Lan family and the He family are both old families, and they have cooperated many times in the middle, and the old shopkeeper really couldn't imagine that the He family would join forces with the newly emerging Li family to deal with the Lan family. Now that the Lan family firm has spent most of the funds to make up the goods, the He family suddenly said no, so a large number of spiritual herbs and elixirs, within a radius of 100 miles, no one except the He family can swallow them, and this batch of goods is afraid that if it rots in the warehouse.
"Young Master Ben said don't want it, don't want it, and Young Master Ben has also lost the liquidated damages, how can you do it?! What are you, dog minion. If the old man of the Lan family comes out and begs me, I may even consider buying one or two floors. ”
The old shopkeeper had a bitter face, not to mention that those liquidated damages were not even two layers of the value of the medicinal materials, it was not easy to let the old man of the Lan family come out, to be honest, he, the old servant of the Lan family, had not seen the principals of the Lan family for several years.
Doing useless work, the old shopkeeper helplessly watched the young master of the He family enter the Li family firm opposite, turned his head and saw a pair of men and women standing on the corner of the street, the old shopkeeper turned around and walked into the firm, not wanting to show jokes to outsiders anymore.
"It seems that this Lan family is really in complete decline," Xiwen said.
Feiyu scratched his head, "Then the young master of the He family is too much......"
"Smack!" Xiwen slapped Feiyu on the back of the head. "Fool, what do you think. Let's go, let's go back to the inn first and see what they have heard. ”
"Xiwen, why did you beat me, that old man is very pitiful, the young master of the He family bullied him like this......"
Another snap sounded, "Fool! ”
Ah Umbrella and Wu Jiong went to the sphere of influence where the Lan family was located, and the Lan family is now shrinking in a corner of the city, and even the auction house that was originally in the center of the city has changed hands to others. But he lost a little angry. The door is closed. It's like a dead house.
Ah Umbrella and Wu Jiong wandered far away near the Blue Mansion for a while, but they didn't see any movement, and they didn't dare to get closer. Soon they shifted their positions to the northwest corner of the city. All the businesses and forces of the Lan family were squeezed out of this corner, and the people in this area looked numb and puzzled. Young people have also lost their sharpness and vitality. Out of place with the rest of the city.
"The Lan family has decayed so quickly. Is it because the head of the house has done something immoral? It's the end of the day's anger......"
"Yes, a good Lan family. How can you say that defeat is defeat, what is it if it is not the condemnation of heaven?! ”
After inquiring left and right, the people who were affiliated with and attached to the Lan family attributed the decline of the Lan family to the fate of the Heavenly Dao, and Ah Umbrella sneered. Defeat? She thinks that she is not a perfect good person, but she has never done anything immoral, and she still bears such a ridiculous and terrible fate.
Wu Jiong also disdained the words of the Lan family, his parents did good deeds in their lives, but the result was nothing more than the destruction of the family.
"Blaming fate for suffering is something that only the weak do." Wu Jiong said that he hated, he resented, but he never blamed fate for everything, only blamed him for not knowing his parents and believing in evil people, no wonder fate.
Ah Umbrella laughs, what about her? Who is she to blame? She can only blame fate for the injustice.
"I don't know what the head of the family has been doing this year, let other families bully our Lan family, except for the year before last when the Li family wanted to rob a village outside the city, the second young master came forward to stop it. Over the years, no one has come forward to seek justice for us. You said that that tattered Zhuangzi is more important than the auction house in the center of our city. Isn't the owner confused......"
Ah Umbrella and Wu Jiong glanced at each other, left the northwest street corner, and met with Xiwen at the inn.
"The Blue Mansion is tightly sealed and heavily guarded, and there is already a guard near the mansion." Ah Umbrella said, "We have to go in, it's hard. ”
Wu Jiong was surprised in his heart, glanced at Ah Umbrella, and didn't speak, just now she stopped him from stepping forward, and he didn't see it if he was warned, but he was getting more and more unable to see through this woman.
"We also got some news, the Lan family has been united by the Li family and other families over the years, and they have been defeated and retreated, but no one in the Lan Mansion has come out to stop them."
There are quirks!
"How can I find out the news if I can't get in?" Feiyu asked.
"We can go to another place first...... "A place worthy of the Lan family's guarantee at this time." ”
The Zhuangzi that the Lan family is in charge of keeping is a big Zhuangzi who deals with spirit stones, and it is very close to the spirit stone mine controlled by the mall. Thinking that both of them have special physiques, Ah Yu and Xiwen sneaked into Zhuangzi without much effort. And Wu Jiong and Feiyu were answering outside Zhuangzi.
After the two of them searched Zhuangzi, they didn't find any major anomalies, the place where the spirit stone was cut and processed was tightly guarded, and the mountain charm didn't know what method to get in, and they didn't find anything.
"Since they came forward to protect this Zhuangzi, there must be some purpose." Ah Umbrella still thinks there is a problem here, but ...... The Lan family would not be so shrewd, and this Zhuangzi may have also been explored by people from other families, and there is no other discovery. The water here is too deep.
Xiwen also thought that the Lan family must have some bottom, so they would blatantly come forward to protect it, and they would not strengthen the security for people to explore. What is there that they have overlooked? The two unwillingly walked around the Zhuangzi for a long time, until the sky was slightly bright, and they both left and joined Wu Jiong.
"Xiwen, are you okay?" Feiyu greeted him as soon as he saw it, his eyes showing concern.
"I'm fine."
"Really? How do I think your taste is a little lighter again. Feiyu shook his head, leaned over to Xiwen's side and sniffed hard, "Really." ”
"You...... Idiot! What are you doing!? A slap opened Feiyu's approaching head, and Xiwen blushed. Feiyu touched the place where he was beaten, smirked, and asked, "What should we do now, the Blue Mansion can't enter, and there is no useful news to be found in Zhuangzi." ”
Xiwen was silent, thought for a while, and said, "Let's go to Yangcheng." ”
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Central City will inevitably launch an attack at the turn of the new and old city lords of the mall, and these days they have been disrupting the mall with small fights, they are small, but they can also use the central city to suppress the merchants.
"Yangcheng is too big, it's better to join the Li family and the He family and make some articles." Wu Jiong said.
Xiwen frowned, she had also thought about this problem, but the big war was imminent, although the Li family and the He family wanted to deal with the Lan family, they would temporarily put aside their grievances in the face of the overall situation, and when the time came, they would not be able to get in the way, but would be vulnerable to harm.
