Chapter 147: The owner of the South Building
Wang Hong, who returned to Luxi City, did not dare to delay time, although it was not really a day or a year on both sides, the main officers of the city guards on this side had already left, and it was easy to have problems once it was a long time.
Before breaking through the late stage of foundation building, Wang Hong's dark gate coordinates had been used up.
After the battle of Qingguang Cliff, he had to recycle the nearby coordinates, otherwise there would be no spare indicators in his hand, and it would be easy to drop the chain at a critical moment.
However, as he cultivated to the late stage of foundation building, his spiritual power rose a lot again, and there were four more new coordinates in the Dark Gate, which made Wang Hong suddenly feel relieved.
This time, the location he teleported was the front line of the battle between the Dynasty Army and the Heavenly Sword Gate, and when he came to pick up Zhu Yan and the others before, Wang Hong left a coordinate nearby.
The place with the most low-level resources in the Tiannan Kingdom is undoubtedly the capital of the Tiannan King, Xiangcheng.
Don't look at the eight states of Tiannan that have been divided, but the royal capital is the royal capital, and the resources of the Tiannan Kingdom and even the entire southern region will spontaneously converge to this central point.
Therefore, Wang Hong wants to get a lot of resources in a short period of time, and Tiannan Wang is the best choice.
However, in the past, Wang Hong basically did not deal with the royal family, so Xiangcheng did not set up a teleportation point, the closest coordinates, but the front line of the battle between the two armies.
"Is this another bloody battle?" As soon as Wang Hong teleported over, he smelled a strong smell of blood.
The coordinate location is at least seven or eight miles away from the battlefield, and you can smell blood from such a distance, and you can only imagine how many people died!
"By the way, I absorbed the souls of Song Yuan and Song Henglu before, and on page 24 of the book of murder, it has been dyed red by more than eighty percent."
"If you absorb another wave of soldier souls here, you should be able to completely dye page 24 red!"
Wang Hong suddenly became excited when he thought of this, the twenty-fourth page of the murder book was of great significance to Wang Hong.
Because the spiritual power provided on page 23 has already reached the early stage of the fourth order, but because of the need for this part of the high-quality spiritual power to stabilize the sea of knowledge, it has always been difficult to use.
If the twenty-fourth page was superimposed, it would mean that Wang Hong had the qualifications to cast fourth-order spells, at least he could try one or two spiritual spells.
Moreover, the underlying spiritual power of suppressing Zhihai has been improved, so Wang Hong's Love-Destroying Demon Knife can also go further.
He doesn't have the emotion-destroying method to subdue the demonic nature with skills, but he can counter violence with violence? With a spiritual power that is far superior to that of the same level? Forcibly suppress the demonic nature.
In fact, this method is more secure than relying on skills, and long-term use of secret methods to control demonic nature? There is inevitably a risk of self-defeating.
And the forcible repression of the mental volume? Demonic nature can hardly turn over any turmoil.
So the twenty-fourth layer of the murder book is of great significance to Wang Hong? Even if it was dangerous to gather souls on an unfamiliar battlefield, he was willing to try.
"Or is the cooldown of isoplanar teleportation over? Let's gather souls here. ”
Can you take risks for the sake of profit? But you must make all the preparations in advance, otherwise it can only be called recklessness.
"It's better to go to the royal capital to buy resources in these five hours, anyway, there are coordinates here, and the soul of the soldier can't run away in the short term? There's no need to rush. ”
Wang Hong thought for a moment? He got up and flew to the east, Xiangcheng was less than five hundred miles from the front line, and with his current flight speed, he could fly in half an hour.
The kings of most of the countries of Tobu Continent, if not the strongest in the country? It's also the top batch.
Coupled with the extremely high mobility of the strong, it makes no sense for the national capital to shrink to the rear.
So the concept of the Son of Heaven guarding the country? There is almost a universal consensus in Tobu Island, if any royal family dares not to obey? It will soon be hollowed out by other powerhouses in the country.
Xiangcheng, the capital of Tiannan Wang, is located in the north of Xiangzhou, and the entire state is named after this fortified city that has survived for nearly 10,000 years.
How far is Xiangcheng from the border of the Tiannan Kingdom and the Zhongshan Kingdom? Only less than two hundred miles away? To the west, it is also close to Bazhou, which is controlled by the Heavenly Sword Gate.
"It really deserves to be a world-famous fortified city! Is it any wonder that the Zhongshan Kingdom gathered millions of troops back then? The siege failed to take it for three years. ”
Wang Hong's current knowledge is not bad, especially when it comes to the knowledge of formations, he has never eaten pork and seen pigs run, so he can naturally see the strength of this big array of city protection.
"That Jade National Master is really a pedantic celestial, using the real weapon as the array, mobilizing the water spirit of the Han River and the mountain spirit of the mountains, so that the defense of Xiangcheng City is both rigid and soft."
"Unless the besieging side can gather five fourth-order powerhouses, one person in the center and four people attack from all sides, and it will last until the foundation of Xiangcheng is exhausted, it will be possible to take this fortified city."
Since coming to Dongwuzhou, Wang Hong has often heard people talk about the Jade Monarchy.
The peerless powerhouse who worked together with the previous generation of Tiannan King to win the eight states of Tiannan, and finally advanced to the fifth order with the help of national fortune, and walked away freely.
Although he hasn't seen a real person now, just from the formation he arranged, it can be seen that this person is by no means a wasted person.
After sighing, Wang Hong fell from the sky and walked into the city.
It was no problem to fly in the city as him, but Wang Hong didn't like to be high-profile in his heart, so he still entered Xiangcheng through normal channels.
The most convenient place to buy resources, of course, is still the money building, although the price is higher than the outside, but the quality of the goods is also reassuring.
Even if Wang Hong is a little wary of Qian Lou, when it comes to trading, he will still be the first to think of them.
This money building in the royal capital is not comparable to the office of Mingcheng, not to mention anything else, as soon as he entered the building, Wang Hong felt a strong aura on his face.
Although it has not reached the point of spiritual energy turning into fog, it is also much stronger than the core area of Qingning Mountain, which shows that the wealth of the Qian Building is abundant.
However, Wang Hong thought about it carefully and felt that it should be taken for granted.
The Tiannan Kingdom is the largest country in the Southern Regions, even after the split, it is still proud of all parties, and Xiangcheng, as the royal capital of the Tiannan Kingdom, is naturally the core area of the Southern Regions.
And the high-rise building that Wang Hong is entering now is the headquarters of the Qian Building in the Southern Regions - the Qian South Building, which is second only to the Qian General Building in the Eastern Regions in the sequence of the whole continent.
This kind of place where a lot of wealth is gathered, no matter how luxurious it is, it is a matter of course.
Wang Hong entered the building and didn't take a few steps, but a maid greeted him with a smile, looked at it for a while, and immediately said respectfully:
"Lord Keqing has come from afar, please have tea upstairs."
These ladies who welcome guests in the money building, remembering the appearance of important people from all sides, belongs to their basic homework.
And Wang Hong is not only the famous Luxi City Lord, but also one of the guests of the Qian Building, of course the maids will remember him clearly.
The materials that Wang Hong wants to buy this time are not three melons and two dates, it is impossible to buy them according to the price in the building, and he must have a good talk with the high-level management.
The store bullies the customer, the customer bullies the store, this kind of thing is inherently mutual.
For ordinary martial artists, there is no room for bargaining, but at Wang Hong's level, he naturally has a certain bargaining power when he buys a large number of materials at one time.
Under the guidance of the maid, Wang Hong came to a small room on the third floor, and after making tea, the maid asked with a smile:
"I don't know if Lord Keqing came to the South Building this time, is he going to buy or sell things, or if he has other things?"
Wang Hong nodded and said, "Buying things, it's a lot of things, is there a deputy landlord here?" ”
The five deputy owners of Qian Nanlou, one is a peak grandmaster, and four are veteran grandmasters, and it is only appropriate for Wang Hong to talk to them about business.
"Today is Deputy Master Li on duty, and I should be free at this time." The maid thought for a while, and then told Wang Hong.
If you were an ordinary guest, it would not be so easy to meet the deputy landlord, but Wang Hong was very high in the list she remembered, and the maid who welcomed the guest said it truthfully.
"Then you go and report it, just say that Wang Hong has a big business to discuss, please ask Lou Li to come over."
The deputy landlord surnamed Li is just an ordinary grandmaster, and with Wang Hong's current status, he already has the qualifications to let the other party come over.
Usually, you can surrender your identity and behave kindly, but you must definitely hold it when talking about business.
Otherwise, once you make the other party think that you are very good at talking, then wait to be put to death.
The maid whispered her promise, and quickly left the room and walked quickly upstairs.
The money building in Xiangcheng has a total of eight floors, the top floor is the office of the main building of the south building and the reception of distinguished guests, and the five deputy owners are concentrated on the seventh floor.
The maid had just reached the sixth floor when she was met by a richly dressed man.
This person has eyebrows and sideburns, and his appearance is quite handsome, he looks only in his thirties, but his temperament is extremely mature.
Seeing this person, the welcoming maid hurriedly bowed her head:
"I've seen the landlord!"
This handsome man is none other than Jia Sifang, the owner of the South Building of the Qian Building, a top grandmaster who has stepped into the peak of the Grandmaster for more than 50 years and has defeated the Master of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
That is, he was born in the Shenwu Empire, and he will not stay in the Southern Regions for too long, so he is not ranked among the top ten grandmasters, and his reputation is not even as good as the Xuanhuo Demon Lord.
Jia Sifang nodded and asked, "Go up to find Lao Li?" Is there a guest coming to the building? ”
At this time, he and Deputy Landlord Li were on the seventh and eighth floors, either looking for him or another person.
The person who can let the welcoming maid invite the deputy owner to receive him, even in front of Jia Sifang, is worthy of the word honorable guest.
"It's the king of Yunzhou Luxi City, and he said that he has a big business to discuss." The maid replied immediately.
Jia Sifang was a little lazy and didn't like to meddle in things, so he was just about to leave with a casual question, but as soon as he heard that the customer was Wang Hong, the owner of the South Building immediately became interested.
At the beginning, Wang Hong's guest token was issued by Jia Sifang in person.
Later, the scale of trade between Qianlou and Luxi City became larger and larger, even exceeding one-half of the total trade volume of Nanlou, which made Jia Sifang very proud for a while, and felt that he had a good eye for pearls.
However, this win-win situation began to produce contradictions after Wang Hong's business went out of Yunzhou.
The price of the same goods is double that of Luxi City, and fools know where to buy.
However, Wang Hong's business is still a bulk material involving people's livelihood, and this piece of money building can not be put down, and the price war cannot beat Wang Hong.
When they wanted to use unconventional means, the news of Wang Hong's killing method and defeating Guan Zhen also came out.
This made everyone, including Jia Sifang, retract their hands again, ready to carefully probe Wang Hong's bottom before deciding how to deal with the dispute between the two sides.
Although the Qian Building is a major force in Dongbu Continent, it has been engaged in commercial activities for a long time, and there are more high-level people in the building who look like merchants than warriors.
Greedy, cautious, and calculating...... These ingrained merchant habits make them afraid to do reckless things at all.
So Jia Sifang actually wanted to talk to Wang Hong for a long time, but he came to the door in person and lost his identity, and it was easy for the other party to take Qiao.
At this moment, when he heard that Wang Hong had come to the South Building, he immediately smiled and said to the maid:
"Don't go looking for Lao Li, Wang Keqing's status is noble, I will receive you personally, you lead the way."
The maid was slightly stunned when she heard this, then immediately nodded yes, and walked towards the room on the third floor with Jia Si.
After a while, Jia Sifang pushed the door in, although Wang Hong didn't know who he was, he could always feel the aura of the peak grandmaster, and looked at the maid with a little doubt.
"City Lord Wang, this is Lord Jia, the owner of the South Building of our Money Building!" The reception maid hurriedly introduced to Wang Hong.
Jia Sifang said with a smile: "I am Jia Sifang, and your Keqing token was issued by me, the number is four, seven, eighty, six, remember correctly." ”
Hearing this, Wang Hong immediately got up and arched his hand and said: "Thank you for the landlord's support, if it weren't for the help of the Qian Building, Luxi City would not have developed so quickly." ”
Jia Sifang's smile was slightly choked, but it returned to normal in the blink of an eye, waved his hand and said:
"The lord of the royal city is polite, with your strength and background, it is only a matter of time before it develops, our money building is just a tailwind boost, and we should not 'carry out'."
If Jia Sifang hadn't carefully studied Wang Hong's intelligence and knew that this guy sometimes couldn't talk with his brain, I'm afraid he would have to think that the other party was mocking him.
Wang Hong faintly sensed the other party's dislike, and after a little thought, he understood the reason, and said with an apologetic smile:
"Wang is young and shallow, and sometimes offends people unintentionally, if the landlord thinks it is inappropriate, please say it directly."
Jia Sifang nodded, walked to the room and sat down, and after letting the maid leave, he glanced at Wang Hong and said.
"In the last few months, has the city lord Wang stretched his hand too long? This is not conducive to the cooperation between Luxi City and Qian Lou. ”
One or two verbal words of right and wrong, Jia Sifang really doesn't care, but when it comes to the actual interests of Qian Lou, he must take it out and ask clearly.
And since Wang Hong came to Qianlou today, he was naturally ready, nodded and said.
"Lord Jia, this Dongwu Continent has been getting more and more chaotic recently."
"Three days ago, Tianya Dao Song Yuan fished me out, I sensed that something was wrong, and I made an appointment with the county lord of Xiaoxiang and others to go together."
"As a result, this guy Song Yuan actually broke through to the martial soul stage ......"
Jia Sifang was already very interested when he heard the news of Song Yuan and Zhu Yan, but when he heard that Song Yuan had broken through to the Martial Soul Stage, he immediately stood up in shock, interrupted Wang Hong's words and asked.
"Song Yuanzhen broke through the martial spirit? How did you get out alive? ”
The fourth and third orders are a large span, and even if four or five peak grandmasters join forces, it will be difficult to resist a martial soul stage powerhouse.
"Song Yuan is already dead, it is inconvenient to say how he died, it involves some private secrets, but I believe that with the ability of the landlord, it is not difficult to inquire." Wang Hong squinted his eyes and said with a smile.
