Chapter 59: Wealthy
Wu County, a restaurant. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info I have to say that no matter what time it is, the news in the restaurant is faster and more than in other places.
"How could such a good thing happen? What if you work hard to cross the river and don't admit it? A pot-bellied businessman, disdainfully said.
"Hey, I don't like to hear that. That's Wu Guogong, a top nobleman who rests with the country. Even if a big official like Yangzhou Assassin Shi encounters it, he has to bow and salute. How can such a big man lie casually? Someone next to him argued.
Hearing this, the merchant paused, then rolled his eyes, and continued: "What you said is very reasonable, but the question is what Wu Guogong wants this information for?" You can do your own research. ”
"After all, it's not a great secret! What's more, in case you cross the river and suddenly find out that your message is not worth much. Or, it has already been turned in in in advance, what should I do? ”
"It's a matter of luck......
Listening to everyone's discussions, Xu Sheng's brows couldn't help frowning, it's really noisy. That's it, now that you're awake, let's hurry up and take on the next task.
Then, he got up from the table. Rubbing his sleepy eyes, he came out of the wine jug on the side and a glass of turbid wine.
Immediately after that, he swallowed it directly with his head tilted. After entering the mouth, a cloudy and spicy feeling rushed directly to the nose, so it was not uncomfortable.
"Big brother, are you still worried about your sister-in-law's illness?" A young man, directly carrying a plate of roast chicken, walked over and said with concern.
This person's name is Chen Wu, and like Xu Sheng, he is from a poor background. They all relied on their own hard work and slowly mixed up from the mercenary alliance.
Now, in terms of strength, he is already a congenital master. Although it is only the beginning, but in the absence of background, no money, and no adventures, this person's experience can already be called a typical inspirational legend.
Hearing this, Xu Sheng nodded gloomily. I was still in a hurry, but when I thought of my wife at home, I calmed down all of a sudden.
"Yes, you also know that your sister-in-law's body is getting worse day by day. It is completely cured, but it will cost a hundred thousand taels of silver at once. Over the years, even though I worked hard every day and went in and out of all kinds of dangerous places, I still gained very little, barely enough to maintain her body. Xu Sheng said a little uncomfortable.
Looking at his childhood sweetheart, constantly losing weight day by day, as a man, how could Xu Sheng get up happily.
But although Xu Sheng had tried his best, he was just a mid-congenital ranger after all. The usage of the cultivation is just a big road commodity circulating in the mercenary alliance. Try your best, but that's it.
"Big brother, I think this is an opportunity. It's not that you don't know that as people who migrated from the Central Plains to Jiangdong, we outsiders are not taken seriously at all. Otherwise, with your strength, big brother, how could you work so hard for a mere amount of money? No one wants to sell ourselves as guards like us! Chen Wu said very depressedly.
Hearing this, Xu Sheng also nodded. The land of Koto has been very xenophobic since ancient times. Especially for people like himself and Chen Wu, who moved from the Central Plains to Jiangdong, this is even more so.
Then I started thinking about it. Wu Guogong took out a large sum of gold and silver to buy some news from Jiangdong.
However, will Wu Guogong really give money for this public information?
seemed to see Xu Sheng's doubts, and then Chen Wu persuaded him: "Big brother, even if you are tired and tired now, it will be at most eight thousand taels of silver a year." However, once it enters Wu Guogong's eyes, let alone 10,000 taels, even if it is 100,000 taels, it is not a problem! ”
Indeed, this Wu Guogong is very generous. Each scholar was given a thousand taels of gold, a thousand-year-old ginseng, and a book of excellent quality exercises.
Theoretically speaking, as long as Wu Guogong is willing, 100,000 taels of silver, it is simply a breeze.
After thinking about it, Xu Sheng nodded heavily and said, "Okay, since I'm going to sell news, then I'll prepare, and in an hour, we'll set off." If you are generous, it doesn't hurt to take refuge in him directly. ”
……
Soon, just an hour later, after using the teleportation array, Xu Sheng and Chen Wu came to the ancestral house of the Lu family in Lujiang County.
At this time, as soon as he came to the neighborhood, Xu Sheng felt that he couldn't move. As far as the eye can see, it is a silver mountain.
This mountain of silver is the accumulation of a single ingot of silver. Each silver ingot is ten taels of the standard weight. Then, countless pieces of silver, piled together, there was this silver mountain.
Around the Silver Mountain, there are 500 Yulin Guards. At this time, they all put on armor, and they directly pulled out their swords in their hands and faced the people around them.
Listening to the heavy breathing around him, looking at the people who were eager to rush up and rob, even Yu Linwei was well-informed, and couldn't help but be a little stunned. This Wu Guogong is really capable of making trouble!
However, at this time, as a subordinate of Wu Guogong, as long as there is no rebellion, no matter what he does, he must obey orders. Therefore, although I was a little unhappy in my heart, I still honestly obeyed the order. cheered up and stared at the surrounding melon-eating crowd.
"This, this is really sincere!" Looking at this huge silver mountain, Chen Wu said excitedly.
"Yes, this time, your sister-in-law is saved!" Xu Sheng couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and then looked at the silver mountain greedily and said. Soon, though, he was back to normal.
Then, in anxious waiting, after a long queue, it was finally Xu Sheng's turn. With some apprehension, Xu Sheng came to a small room.
Outside the house, there were also two masters of the Yulin Guard. Around, there is an army, guarding the side. Then, with a squeak, he pushed the door open, and Xu Sheng walked in.
At first glance, this is a young man, really young. Moreover, his face was extremely pale, as if he had some serious illness. Then, recalling the information in his mind, Xu Sheng remembered who this person was.
"Oh, this is Baron Wu Guocong, Lord Guo Fengxiao Guo, who was originally from Langya, and later came to Jiangdong for some reasons. Now, he lives in Kure-gun. Xu Sheng clenched his hands into fists and introduced.
Hearing this, Guo Jia's eyes suddenly emitted a fine light. Then, the whole person instantly became energetic.
"I'm sorry, this is just one of my doppelgangers, so just now, I was a little absent-minded and didn't concentrate, Brother Xu, can you say it again." Guo Jia said sincerely.
For the sake of secrecy, all those who came to register were personally received and recorded by him. Therefore, he used the method of distraction and briefly separated dozens of clones without the slightest combat power.
But fortunately, these clones don't need to have combat effectiveness, they just need intelligence. However, now it seems that dozens of doppelgangers are not enough, at least a few hundred!
"Very good, if Brother Xu, you are willing to tell all the things you have done since you were a child, of course, if you don't want to talk about it, you can not say it. In this way, it can be exchanged for a thousand taels of silver. Guo Jia said lightly.
Then, Xu Sheng was stunned for a moment, how can this silver be so easy to earn? However, from childhood to adulthood, how long does it take to recall?
Then, looking at Xu Sheng's somewhat stunned appearance, Guo Jia smiled and continued: "Then, I will ask you some relevant news according to the specific situation." Well, every question is ten taels of silver. ”
"Also, if you have any secrets, you can tell them. Including some outrageous things, as well as some ethereal legends, can be said. Each one, whether true or false, was at least ten taels of silver. If it's true, and it's valid, it's at least a hundred taels of silver. ”
Hearing this, Xu Sheng's mouth grew in surprise all of a sudden. Then he asked, "Is this the price for everyone?" Also, what if the time is too short to finish? ”
"The price of the innate master is like this. If it is an ordinary person, it will be reduced tenfold. If it is a grandmaster, it will increase tenfold. As for time, this place is originally in a cave, and the speed of time is about ten to one. Guo Jia said with a smile.
has a wealthy lord, even if he does things, he is full of confidence. How many innate is the whole Jiangdong? After getting the silver, even if you don't take refuge in Wu Guo because of this, you will have a good impression of Wu Guo, right?
Moreover, Guo Jia found that the more information he obtained, the more secrets he discovered. The confessions of so many congenital masters, after a little comparison, have already found many, many interesting things.
"Well, I was born in Langya ......"
Soon, Guo Jia recorded all the information and then began to ask questions.
"What do you know about the silver rituals in the land of Jiangdong?"
"There is Zhong Shanjun, uh, but he has been suppressed by Wu Guogong. There is a fox demon, which is said to be a nine-tailed fox, although I haven't seen it, but these legends still exist. There are also many shrine maidens, most of whom are very beautiful, mainly in rituals, and skilled in various dances. And ......"
"So, what about the power side?"
"The largest is the God of War Temple, followed by the Wu County Gu family, the Wu County Yu family, and the Zhang family ......"
"Who is the richest? I'm referring to merchants. ”
“……”
"Who's got the most private soldiers?"
"Who are the strongest people in the land of Koto?"
"What is the relationship between the Zhang family and the Lu family?"
"Zhang Ming, do you know this person, what is this person's personality?"
"This is this mountain, if there is any legend related to it, even if it is absurd, it doesn't matter, you just name it."
