Chapter 318: Inside Yangzhou City
Chen Pinli's life story is legendary.
And what is even more legendary is that he turned out to be a martial arts master.
As a businessman, he has seen countless people and masters in his life, but no one has found that he has such a strong true qi.
Slowly exhaling a breath of turbidity, Chen Pinli came out of his cultivation.
He couldn't see everything around him clearly in the dark room, but as if he could see clearly, he slowly tilted his head and looked into a corner.
"They're coming?"
He said in a flat, unhurried tone.
After he finished speaking, there was a cracking sound in the darkness.
A voice came from around the corner.
"Here we are."
Chen Pinli smiled lightly, and he said with expectation,
"It's finally here."
"But they're coming too slowly."
"However, although there are many of them, the combat power in the city should not be underestimated now, you go and help them as much as possible."
"Although General Na Xie is a well-known general, he is not smart."
In the darkness, a voice came again,
"Yes."
"Wait."
Chen Pinli stopped him again.
"Remember not to be exposed."
"Yes!"
There was another crumbling sound in the darkness, followed by silence.
Chen Pinli slowly retracted his head.
A light came out of the secret room,
At this time, I finally saw his face clearly.
A sneer suddenly flashed on that vicissitudes of life.
"Lord Chu, Lord Chu, if you come back and see that this Yangzhou City has changed hands, I don't know what you think?"
......
Zhao family.
A place where the aroma is pervasive and extremely extravagant.
Zhao Long knelt respectfully in place, listening to the laughter in the room.
After a long time, the room was silent, and a human voice sounded at this time.
"Say what you said again."
Zhao Long buried his head and said respectfully: "Yes, master." ”
"Yesterday, the Lord has already led his troops to attack the Qingguang Sect."
"Today, the son of Pan Junshou of Dongyang County is General Xie with a full 5,000 people to attack Yangzhou City, and now the war has begun."
Hearing Zhao Long's words, Zhao Dahai said very indifferently: "Five thousand people have come to attack Yangzhou City?" No wonder I said why is it so noisy? ”
Zhao Long slowly raised his head a little, he was entangled for a long time, and then he asked, "Master, what are we going to do?" ”
"What to do?"
The room was completely silent.
With a creak, the door was slowly pushed in.
Zhao Dahai exposed his fat upper body and walked out slowly.
"What to do? Why do we do something? ”
Seeing the former come out, Zhao Long hurriedly buried his head to the lowest again.
He trembled and said, "This ......"
"After all, the Zhao family is still staying in Yangzhou City, if there is chaos in the city, then the Zhao family's industry will definitely have some losses."
Hearing Zhao Long's words, Zhao Dahai nodded thoughtfully.
But then he smiled and said, "Zhao Long, Zhao Long, you are really only suitable to be a servant." ”
Hearing his words, Zhao Long hurriedly knocked and said, "The little one is always the master's servant." ”
"Haha!"
Zhao Dahai looked at Zhao Long who was stumbling on the ground and nodded contentedly.
"Good!"
Zhao Dahai asked: "Long Zhao, how does the income of our Zhao family before Lord Chu came to Yangzhou County compare with our harvest after Lord Chu came?" ”
Zhao Long said: "Master, the harvest before coming is a full thirty percent higher than the harvest after coming. ”
Zhao Dahai nodded and said, "Yes, Sancheng." ”
"We're losing a full 30 percent of our revenue."
"My Zhao family's family business is huge, in the past half a year, why have we earned 100,000 taels of silver."
"If someone can pull this guy off the horse, it won't be any harm to them."
Hearing him say this, Zhao Long said with understanding: "What the master means is that if Yangzhou County changes the county order, why can we return to the previous business?" ”
Hearing that someone was attacking the city, Zhao Dahai was obviously much happier.
So he was also a lot more tolerant of Zhao Long.
"Looks like you're not stupid."
After saying this, Zhao Dahai turned around and walked towards the house.
When he reached the door, he turned back again.
"Don't worry about this matter, you don't need to do anything, just let it be."
Zhao Long replied respectfully, "Yes." ”
"Hahaha!"
Hearing this, Zhao Dahai laughed.
Then, he suddenly remembered something, and asked, "By the way, I heard from them that your maid is gone." ”
Zhao Long froze instantly.
His body began to tremble.
However, although he trembled, he still tried his best to maintain his emotions and not let the other party find out any clues.
"Maid, is the master talking about Xiaowan?"
Zhao Dahai smiled and said, "Do you have any other maids?" ”
Zhao Long quickly shook his head.
"The master knows, and the little one is only interested in wine."
"Master, Xiaowan said that something happened in her hometown and she needed to go back for ten days, and I think things are also a big deal, so I will let her go back first."
After listening to Zhao Long, Zhao Dahai nodded thoughtfully.
"Ten days!"
"Okay, you can step down first."
"Yes."
Zhao Long nodded with palpitations, then stood up and walked outside.
And Zhao Dahai glanced at the former's back, and after smiling faintly, he returned to the house again.
After walking to a relatively hidden corner outside, Zhao Long, who was walking, stopped.
And when he stopped, he paused.
After wiping the sweat from his forehead, he gasped for breath.
It was the first time he had lied in front of this master of his own.
It was also the first time to disobey his master.
Zhao Long gasped, and after a long time, he stood up.
Glancing back at the scented house, he thought for a moment before heading somewhere.
......
This is another more secluded house.
The house is extremely dilapidated, as if it has not been cleaned in decades.
Around the house, in addition to the traces left by the years, you can also see a faint mist floating outside the house.
The fog was cold, and if you got closer, it was bitterly cold.
Zhao Long didn't get any closer, he stood in a three-zhang position outside the house, and bowed respectfully inside.
"Grandfather, the child begged to see him."
No sound.
After Zhao Long's words, the entire house remained unchanged as before.
However, Zhao Long was not in a hurry, he just bowed his body respectfully and lowered his head.
Long.
After about three incense sticks, the fog outside this room slowly spreads out.
At this time, an old voice came from inside the house.
"The sea, this time you came to look for me, but what is the matter?"
Zhao Long bowed respectfully again, "The child does need grandfather's help in something. ”
There was a pause in the room, and then an old voice came again,
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
"Let's talk about it first, if it wasn't a major event related to the survival of the Zhao family, I wouldn't come out."
