Chapter 176: The Inn's Secret Talk
Moreover, the methods are extremely cruel, especially the Huo family's Jiujiang shipping, where the goods are lost, the ship sinks, and people die, and there is even no half of the life at all.
On the contrary, the merchant ships transported by the Luojiang Shipping, who set off later, did not know whether they were lucky or not, and they all escaped the catastrophe.
Xu Hao didn't care about this, he sat alone in the cabin, holding the jade bottle in his palm, his excitement overflowing, and his eyes were full of cherishment.
"The poison of the devil must be studied carefully...... his mind turned, and suddenly, a solemn voice sounded.
"The opening of the Ten Thousand Poisons of the Fierce Heart can be preliminarily investigated, the fierce cold poison can paralyze the meridians, imprison the body, and further slightly injure the soul after being injured. ”
"Good. Xu Hao smiled, his eyes bloomed, and he said in a deep voice: "Use one coin of white vanilla, two coin of broken heart snake, and one coin and a half of heartless powder......
He sat alone in the cabin, and even stayed in the shore city, Xu Hao still stayed in the cabin, and asked people to bring food in on weekdays, in addition to studying poisons, he was concentrating on cultivation.
"Huh!" The fingers are heavy, the law changes, Xu Hao's expression is peaceful, but his body seems to be transparent, and the nine bones in his body are starry, shining with blazing light, and the cabin is isolated from this scene, if anyone sees it, it will be shocking.
The fourth layer of the Bone Cultivation Realm is the most core step in the Heavenly Realm, affecting the foundation of a martial artist's life. And Xu Hao broke through the limits of the human body by chance and turned the impossible into a possibility.
Now with this foundation, even when cultivating, it can cause visions of heaven and earth.
The day is no different, but at night, the stars in the sky are shining brightly as the merchant ships move forward.
It's like drawing a brilliant Milky Way in the sky. If you look closely, you will find this anomaly, but unfortunately no one will notice this verse, let alone think about the reason for it.
After two months of waterway, the merchant ship arrived at Liuchang County, the eastern border of Qingxiao Kingdom, and it was also the last destination of the trip.
As a border county, it can't be compared to Cloudsdale, and the city looks unusually out of order, and the streets are dirty, which is the reason why it has experienced war.
Due to its proximity to the border, there are quite a few city defense troops, all of them wearing heavy armor and having a murderous face, all of them are battle-hardened and powerful.
Xu Hao disembarked and said goodbye to the bow and crew. Immediately, he walked towards the Dongsheng Inn in the county town, where Zheng Fan and Xu Cheng lived.
The condition of this inn is ordinary, but it is quite good in the Liuchang County City.
Xu Hao walked into the inn, it was not a meal, there were almost no people, but the private seat by the window saw Zheng Fan, Xu Chengzheng and several strangers sitting by the window, whispering in a low voice, with a serious expression.
"Huh?" Xu Hao's eyes lit up, and he felt cordial when he met his family during the long trip.
"Boss ——?"
"Boss!"
Zheng Fan and Xu Cheng also noticed him, and they were both overjoyed! Their eyes lit up, and they suddenly got up and strode over, as if they had found the backbone of the heart.
"Haha, how are you two doing here?" Xu Hao laughed, patting the two of them on the shoulder vigorously, where is the poison demon at this time? Just like the big brother next door.
Speaking of this, Zheng Fan and Xu Cheng looked at each other and smiled bitterly, and shook their heads helplessly.
"Brother. Xu Cheng sighed and said: "We are discussing the matter of the 'Junshan' gold mine this time, things have changed, and the original proven reserves have increased significantly, this gold mine can be said to be the largest gold mine in the entire Qingxiao country in decades, or even in the past hundred years." ”
"At the moment, the competition for mining rights is almost white-hot. And we, in the most disadvantaged position......"
"What?" Xu Hao frowned, not in a hurry, and the three of them returned to the inn seat. Several strangers quickly got up, bowed and nodded, looking awe-inspiring.
Zheng Fan hurriedly introduced: "They are Wang Kaifu, the general of the local city defense army, Xu Zhe, the deputy general, Zheng Chuang, the boss of the Viper Gang, and Xu Ting, the captain of the current guard team in the mining area. This is Xu Hao, the owner of our Jin Medical Business Group. ”
General Wang Kaifu sat next to Xu Cheng, this person was of medium stature, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his voice was buzzing: "Brother Xu is really good-natured! The reputation of the little divine doctor is a household name in our Qingxiao country. ”
"Hehe, General Xu praised it. Xu Hao waved his hand, he already had an estimate in his heart, these people were probably controlled by Zheng Fan and them with soul dedication talismans, otherwise the local forces would not easily take refuge in them, let alone be so obedient, people of different identities gathered together.
He looked around, and the store was quiet. But he was still very cautious, stretched out his hand, beckoned a few people to get up, and came to their rooms to talk secretly.
The interior of the house is a suite, which is quite neat and elegant.
"What's the specific situation now?" Xu Hao sat on the top chair, and the others sat down at will.
Wang Kaifu hesitated, glanced at Zheng Fan and Xu Cheng, and took the lead in saying after getting permission: "Alas...... Originally, Hu Dongpeng, the son of the fifth prince of the Imperial City, Zheng Shicheng, the brother-in-law of Zhou Tianju, the general of the frontier guard, and several commercial houses with backgrounds such as Yuehai Commercial Bank and Yunshan Commercial Bank were competing. But right now, even the third prince Hu Zhonglian was also alarmed, and now he is united with Hu Dongpeng. At present, it must be Hu Dongpeng, Hu Zhonglian, Zheng Shicheng and Yuehai Commercial Bank that are the most competitive. We estimate that the others will not even be eligible to compete at that time. ”
"Who is in the hands of the decision?" Xu Hao asked in a deep voice, his attitude calm. This situation was already expected by itself. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come here in person.
Of course, the continued expansion of gold mines is a good thing, but it also makes it more difficult to obtain mining rights.
"The general of the border guards, Zhou Tianju. Wang Kaifu said without hesitation: "He is in charge of the eastern thousand-mile frontier defense, and he is a first-class general, and our small county is also under his jurisdiction." ”
But in this matter, he is also anxious, after all, he has already alarmed the imperial city, and now the three princes Hu Zhonglian and Hu Dongpeng are united, and Zhou Tianju has to give face no matter what. His brother-in-law must also be indispensable, but behind Yuehai Commercial Bank is Prime Minister Sun Tian, who also has to share a piece, and it is not easy to deal with them alone. Even if the last three parties are handled properly, the other forces are not ordinary people, and they will definitely offend many people, which is always difficult to do......"
Xu Hao nodded and continued to ask: "What is the current situation of these people?"
"Some of them are in positions of high authority, and they are simply difficult to reach. Some are just agents, and it is difficult to ...... even with soul dedication talismans," Xu Cheng scratched his head and said without any scruples. When he said this, he had obviously changed his direction, and several of the people present had already taken medication to control it.
Obviously, at the mention of the soul dedication talisman, these people all trembled, and their faces were ugly.
"Wang Kaifu, can you get close to Zhou Tianju?" Xu Hao turned his head, the so-called capture of the thief first captures the king, since he has the right to decide, then take it down first.
