Time passed slowly, Dongfang had been very calm, and there was no new news, and the spies sent out by Tong Yunxiang saw that the last bottle of trauma fluid had been bought in the main store of Dongfang, and the sign hanging on the door of the store: "Because a large amount of inventory in this store has been sold, the sale of trauma fluid is suspended, and if there is a rest, it will be notified separately." ”

In the meeting hall, Tong Yunxiang was naturally excited when he heard the report of the spies coming back, and the other elders naturally felt overjoyed.

"Why did you stop selling drugs? Have you ever heard from the magician in the Eastern Mansion? ”

"My subordinates heard from a subordinate in the Dongfang Mansion that the master disappeared the day after he returned to the mansion after he had a conflict with the princess on the street that day, and the Dongfang patriarch interrogated all the people, and finally did not know whether they were alive or dead."

Tong Yunxiang was a little puzzled: "Missing?" A huge Dongfang Mansion would disappear unnoticed, and she suddenly laughed: "So you can't see anyone alive, and you can't see a corpse when you die." ”

"Whether it is life or death, the subordinates do not approve of it. But what is certain is that Dongfang Bai, the big leader in Dongfang Mansion, was also killed, and even the medicinal materials and guards escorted were not left, and they were burned to ashes. ”

Tong Yunxiang seemed to remember something, and asked Ling'er below: "You know all this in the morning." ”

"Oh, it's dead, indeed." Tong Ling'er still doesn't have too many emotional fluctuations.

Hearing Tong Ling'er say this, Tong Yunxiang smiled: "You girl, you know that you can't tell the truth from your mouth, but the queen mother still thanks you on behalf of the Tong family, if it weren't for your relationship, the master might not be willing to help us." ”

Tong Ling'er still didn't know what to do, and some deliberately tried to get through the trick with haha, seeing Ling'er prevaricating like this, Tong Yunxiang couldn't say anything more, so he had to explain a few words of advice: "In the future, when I see the master, I must thank him on behalf of the snow country for what the old man has done for us." ”

Just when the Tong family was cheering and celebrating, the two Qi Venerable envoys from the outer city exchange had come to the Dongfang Mansion with the contract, and the Dongfang patriarch faced these two menacing two, although he felt a little disgusted with such a person who fell into the well, but according to the current situation, he could not afford to offend any of the forces, so he could only nod and promise to make up all the balance within two days, and then sent away the debt collector.

The patriarch of Dongfang called the housekeeper and interrogated the book turnover of each store recently, but the housekeeper was simply and neatly: "I have already calculated these, except for the normal turnover in the store, I can only get 100,000 gold coins, plus some marketing in the house, we can still squeeze out 80,000 gold coins on the living account, we have already paid a deposit of 100,000 yuan before, so there is still a difference of 22 gold coins." ”

The old man in the east was shocked, how could such a large sum of money be quickly collected within two days? After thinking about it for a while, the patriarch of Dongfang decided to be cheeky and go to the private consortium that had some contacts on weekdays to ask for a little help, and after a day of running, the old man of Dongfang returned to the mansion with some loss.

The housekeeper greeted him with a smile: "Patriarch, I have already counted all the movable gold coins in the store and the mansion, which is 20,000 more than the previous budget." Looking at the housekeeper's somewhat overjoyed expression, facing this small sack of gold coins, he couldn't help crying and laughing: "I didn't expect that my Dongfang would end up in such a field today, licking my face to borrow money, not only did I not borrow a single money, but I was also ridiculed by them several times, such a son of a bitch, a group of guys without conscience." ”

After listening to the complaints of the patriarch of the east, the housekeeper said: "It has always been the icing on the cake, it is difficult to send charcoal in the snow, and the patriarch does not have to hurt his body for this trivial matter, only himself is the most reliable at this time." ”

"200,000, such a large sum of gold coins, where can I get it for him? Unless you weigh me and sell it......" The Dongfang patriarch seemed to have thought of some excellent way, and he slapped the table excitedly: "Sell something?" I can choose a shop to sell and solve the problem in front of me first. ”

"Selling shops?" The butler repeated: "Then patriarch, which one should we sell?" ”

"The main store pù must not be sold, but the location should not be too bad, just the street in front of the main shop, where the shop should choose a spacious place, put up a notice, and it is better to advertise."

The patriarch of Dongfang seemed to think that he could finally ask for a big price, and the grievances of the morning disappeared at once, and he ordered with some excitement: "Go quickly, go now." ”

Soon, the news of the Dongfang family's sale of the shop pù spread in Utuo City, and Tong Yunxiang naturally got the news as soon as possible. The consortia that were big enough to buy a shop didn't care at all, and now the situation was clear, the Tong family was dominant, and even if they got a shop in a good location, they couldn't bring huge economic benefits to themselves. Those who couldn't afford to buy a shop laughed at the old man of the East for not being able to open the house, and they all began to sell their own food.

The Dongfang team leader waited at home for an afternoon, thinking that there would be groups of people to negotiate the price with him, but not a single figure waited, he was very anxious, guessing that there might be a problem with the price, so he asked the housekeeper to lower the price again and again, from 500,000 to 400,000 or 300,000, and still no one cared.

Early the next morning, the patriarch of Dongfang called the housekeeper with some discouragement: "Forget it, adjust the price to 200,000." "The Eastern Patriarch has not yet sat down, and yesterday the two Outer City Qi Venerable Envoys came again.

"Didn't we say two days?" The Eastern Patriarch was a little surprised.

"Yes, yesterday was the day, today is the next day, we just came to tell Elder Sù, we are going back before sunset today." Dongfang looked at their fierce faces with some astonishment, nodded and smiled bitterly: "It's all right away." ”

Time passed slowly, and the notices posted out changed one after another, and there was not even a single one asking for the price. The old man in the east was already very anxious as he watched the sun slowly rise and then slowly set, and the two messengers sat there like puppets.

"Patriarch, someone is coming."

The butler said and greeted a young man with clear eyebrows, who was young, holding a wooden box in his hand and placing it on the table: "This is 200,000 gold coins, where is the contract for that shop?" I bought it. ”

The patriarch of the East looked at the strange young man suspiciously, and then looked at the two messengers next to him and the sun that had fallen into the air, so he had to take the money and nodded. The boy took the contract and left beamingly.

The two messengers counted the gold coins and departed. Leaving the Dongfang patriarch alone, standing in the courtyard a little dazed, looking at the remaining afterglow of the sun, the butler's words came in his ears: "That young man really entered the palace." The old man in the east suddenly cried and laughed: "It's really lifting a stone to hit yourself in the foot!" ”
