Chapter 29: The Golden Building
The golden leopard looked at his severed palm with a shocked expression, but he was fierce, and he just bared his teeth and hesitated for a moment, then he covered his severed palm and was about to run away.
Where can Chen Le let him escape at this moment, he hasn't asked what that brand is, and he can't help but snort coldly: "If you dare to take a step, I will fly a knife to take your life." β
But where is the Huanglian man nicknamed the Golden Leopard willing to listen, and still runs away, Chen Le sneered, the silver light flashed in his hand, and the cicada wing flying knife flew out again, he had no intention of hurting the life of the Golden Leopard, so this time the flying knife shot straight out, hitting the calf of the Golden Leopard, and the yellow-faced man immediately fell to the ground with a "poof".
Chen Le stepped forward quickly, and when he saw him rolling on the ground in pain, he couldn't help but shout: "Do you want to live?" β
This money leopard is also a bachelor, and when he saw that there was no chance to escape, he endured the pain and hurriedly said: "Son, spare his life, the younger one has an eighty-year-old mother, and the child has a child to be fed, please spare me." β
Chen Le said coldly: "I asked you a few words, you answered truthfully, don't lie, if you say well, I will let you leave immediately to treat your injuries, if you don't say well, I don't need to kill you personally, just drag it for a while, you may not be able to save your life." β
In this era, there are no anti-inflammatory antibiotics, and the doctors in the hospital charge very highly, and people often bandage their hands and bodies after they are injured, so there are many people who die of wound infections. β
Chen Le said lightly: "It's very simple, where did you get the brand of the Golden Building, what is the origin, and what is the use?" β
The golden leopard fell to the ground, the wound hurt so much that the green tendons on his temples jumped, only to hear him tremble and say: "This gold brand was snatched from someone else's hand, as for where the person got it I don't know, this gold brand is a kind of identity token issued by the golden building, bearer, whoever grabs it is whoever!" β
Chen Le heard the Golden Leopard talk about the Golden Building, only to learn that the Golden Building was not an underground gang, but a business organization that was very famous among the countries, and the business was different from others.
In this world, there is no farmer and businessman, and businessmen are despised, and whoever has great power, who has big fists, and who has more money, then whoever has status and status.
There is a lot of money in the Golden Building, so much that it only does business with gold, and there are only three kinds of business, the first is to borrow money, lend gold to others, of course, this other person is by no means ordinary people, and ordinary people dare not borrow the money of the Golden Building to spend.
The gold of the Golden Building is only lent to the wealthy families, only lent to the officials of the vassal states, and even directly lent to the vassal states, he is never afraid that someone will not repay the money, and he is not afraid of the power to be arrogant.
The second business done by the Golden Building is the auction, the items it auctions are very simple, there are only two kinds of treasures and war preparations, not to mention treasures, war preparations include weapons, war horses, baggage, and even grain and grass.
The Golden Building is still doing the business of the Silver Building, of course, it is just a faΓ§ade to let people know that he exists in the world!
Chen Le already understood in his heart when he heard this, speaking of which, this golden building is a usury loan plus a reselling army, of course, these two things are not easy to do, not only need a strong background, but also need strong strength, otherwise how to ask the vassal states for accounts? And how to ensure that some treasures and military supplies will not be robbed?
The money leopard doesn't know who opened this golden building, and the forces behind the golden building are not something that a small person like him can access, as for the gold medal of this golden building, it is the stupidest way to sell it as gold, because the golden building itself is recycled at twice the price of gold, but this is not the highest, the highest is to sell this gold medal to some people who need it!
Not all nobles have the brand of this golden building, and it is impossible for everyone to have a piece of this thing among the same family lords, so this golden building token naturally has a demand market, and this thing is sold to some children of the family, which can be sold three to five times the value of its own gold, so it is extremely difficult for the golden building to be recycled, and as the golden building exists for a longer and longer time, this token will naturally be scattered to the folk rivers and lakes, and become the object of some people's pursuit of profits.
Chen Le heard the great name of this golden building, but he sneered in his heart, no matter how big this kind of power is, it can only exist in the current Spring and Autumn Period and Warring States, if the world is unified, then there will be no room for it to survive, no matter which emperor really takes charge of the Sheji artifact, he will never let this kind of organization continue to exist.
"Is there an auction of the Golden Building in Daliang City recently?" Chen Le asked the question he wanted to ask the most.
"Returning to Gongzi, just tomorrow, there will be an auction on the Wanbao Pavilion on Daliang City East Street!" Money Leopard Road.
"This is also the reason why you are not afraid of life and death today and grab this brand, right?" Chen Le snorted coldly.
"Yes, Childe, someone on the black market has already let out the wind and bought this Golden Building token at five times the price......" The money leopard hurriedly replied.
"Okay, I know, now you can go, you remember that I can spare you today, and I can still kill you tomorrow!" Chen Le said coldly.
After the money leopard stood up from the ground with strength, he staggered and ran into the distance, he didn't think about revenge, one of his hands was crippled, and he basically said goodbye to his career in the rivers and lakes, not only that, but he also had to always guard against the enemy coming to seek revenge, as for the matter of the Golden Building token, he didn't know Chen Le's name and surname, even if he remembered a general appearance, it was useless, and it was a question of whether anyone believed it, let alone where to look for it in the vast sea of people.
Looking at the disappearing figure of the leopard, Chen Le left here quickly, although he was not afraid of retaliation, but he still didn't want to cause some unnecessary trouble, he didn't even go back to the fat man's hexagram stall all the way, about half an hour later came to a small lake, this is the west city of Daliang City, the population is relatively sparse, he found a big willow tree to sit next to the trunk, and then began to think about how to solve today's food and accommodation problems.
Sell words, sell paintings, sell poems, and even tell a story, sell a paragraph of singing, and find a place to work for two days is no problem.
He doesn't have some of the poverty and exquisiteness of Zheng Xuan's kid, what is insulting, he doesn't eat the food that comes from him, he doesn't drink the water of the stolen spring, of course, integrity is important, and everyone wants face, but if he doesn't even have his life, how can he talk about face?
Chen Le took out the remaining steamed bun from his arms, and then ate it little by little, and then just wanted to rest for a while, but unexpectedly, a crisp voice came: "Chen Le, you are so hard to find!" β
