Chapter 9: The Adventurer

"That is the eldest prince of the Heavenly Dome Chamber of Commerce, it is rumored that the Shen family is rich and rivals the country, and in terms of the number of crystal coins alone, even the treasure house of His Majesty the Emperor cannot be compared. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"How could he come to sign up, and he is still honestly queuing, not to say that their family's annual donations to the four major colleges exceed half of all the total, the major important buildings inside the college, teaching buildings, libraries, and laboratories, most of them are marked with the words "Tianqiong", no matter how high the four colleges are, it is impossible to refuse such a rich man, and he is not crying and rushing to let Shen Dagongzi join. ”

"Wait, look at the one who is talking to Shen Dagongzi, how does this delicate-looking young man look a little raw, it seems that he is not a local, I don't know what it has to do with the Shen family, I think there is a chance that he is the descendant of a powerful city lord."

……

……

In this Flame City at the feet of the Human Emperor, Shen Liangcai was obviously not an insignificant little person, looking at the envious and flattering gazes handed by others, and the whispers around him, Chu Ming had a general understanding of the family background of the young man in front of him who looked very frivolous.

Although there are four major chambers of commerce on the Terran side, the first-ranked "Heavenly Dome Chamber of Commerce" is completely different from the next three, this is a behemoth, it not only monopolizes most of the spirit mines that can be used to make crystal coins, but also occupies a corresponding share in various commercial fields, from clothing, food, housing and transportation, to the development of spell weapons, the active figure of the Heavenly Dome Chamber of Commerce can be seen in almost every industry.

The president of the Heavenly Dome Chamber of Commerce, Shen Liangcai's father, is named Shen Fugui.

Shen Fugui was just an ordinary businessman who could barely be regarded as rich in his early years, and later he didn't know why he got acquainted with the current human emperor who was still the fourth prince at the time, His Majesty the human emperor was born to an ordinary palace maid with no grade, whether it was the old man emperor or the important ministers of the court, even among the ordinary people, no one had seen the four princes with their eyes, and the competition for the throne was not even qualified to participate.

I don't know if it's discerning or already strategic, Shen Fugui poured all his family wealth into supporting the four princes who were depressed at the time, and then befriended the ministers through various means, and under the enticment and differentiation, there was the earliest group of dragon-supporting people, I have to say that His Majesty the Emperor is also a talented person, once he has these available teams, he will immediately soar and turn into a brilliant true dragon.

There has never been a shortage of humerus ministers in history who were unsealed and arrogant, and were finally unloaded and killed by the Son of Heaven after the emperor ascended the throne, neither accepted the post of Zaifu, the highest title of the Wenchen family, nor rejected the military position of Shangzhuguo, a powerful general.

If this is the case, ordinary people will also retreat to the mountains and forests, and live a life of idle clouds and wild cranes from then on, but Shen Fugui is obviously different, he recommended himself to His Majesty the Emperor to serve in the household department, which is the organ in charge of the world's household registration and finance, and the supreme governor of the household department Shangshu is only the official position of the third grade, which is a high level for Lord Shen, who has a high prestige in the government and the opposition at that time.

The emperor seems to have favored this courtier, who was also a brother and friend, and not only agreed to his request, but also re-established a "Minister of Economy", the highest official position of Zhengyipin, above the household department, although he only controlled the finance, silver and money, but had the power of the prime minister of the same cabinet.

And a few years later, Shen Fugui was like a child who was tired of playing with toys, and took the initiative to ask the emperor to resign, and the emperor did not doubt him, so he happily pardoned his official position, and allowed him to enter the palace at any time, providing all kinds of advice on economic matters as a hand-picked staff.

The Heavenly Dome Chamber of Commerce was first established at this time, but in just ten years, it has become the largest chamber of commerce of the human race, and it also has a considerable position in the demon race.

Shen Fugui gave birth to a boy and a girl, the eldest son was the Shen Liangcai in front of him, and the daughter was named Shen Ningyu. ”

Shen Liangcai was asking Chu Ming if there were other outstanding beauties in Fallen Leaf City besides Su Qingmei, in his words, it was to collect all the beauties in the world, otherwise he would be a good man in vain, and Chu Ming also learned from him about some secrets of the four major academies, as well as several major events that had happened recently in the Flame City.

But in half an hour, Qingyu went and returned, after learning that this Chu brother was going to the other three academies, Shen Liangcai seemed to be unfinished, although his father only asked him to apply for the Royal Academy, but he still went with a big package, and in the end he even registered all the four academies.

Shen Liangcai invited him to come over to the mansion to talk about it, Chu Ming thought that he was not familiar with life here, and the Shen Mansion family had a great business and a profound heritage, so he must have many books on spells, so he was naturally happy.

Because the head of the family likes a quiet relationship, the Shen Mansion is located outside the commercial street in the west of the city, and has a high-gate mansion that covers a huge area, and Shen's father was not at home that day, but he ran into the rumored Miss Shen Er.

This is a tall beauty with a delicate figure, who looks more like a sister than Shen Liangcai, and obviously regards Chu Ming, who came to Shen Mansion for the first time, as his brother's fox friend and dog friend.

Shen Ningyu looked at him with an unkind gaze and said, "Although I don't know who you are, anyone who deliberately approaches my brother must have a plan." If you are for money, I will ask the account office to give you three thousand crystal coins at one time, and if there is any further entanglement in the future, our Shen family will use force to solve this problem. ”

Shen Liangcai was embarrassed to say something, but was stopped, "And if you have any other purpose, you want to get close to me through my brother, want to gain my favor, and finally become the son-in-law of the Shen family, I can only remind you here that not everyone in this world can fly on the branches to be a phoenix, if you don't have self-knowledge, be careful and end up dead without a body." ”

When a man encounters this situation, it is nothing more than to be angry and rush to the crown for dignity, or leave with that heavy fortune, Chu Ming took a deep breath, and waited to step forward to speak, and at this time, a slightly jerky voice sounded behind him: "Miss, Master Chu, he is a good person." ”

It was Qingyu, the negative sword maid who had been silent, who had been silent, Chu Ming didn't expect that the first time he received the good guy card was from this woman with an ordinary appearance and an ordinary temperament, and there were some golden residues left at the corners of her mouth, well, the candied peach flesh brought from Fallen Leaf City had a nirvana effect.

Hearing this, Miss Shen Er was stunned, her slender willow eyebrows frowned, she never believed anything that came out of her brother's mouth, but she had to pay much attention to this sword-bearing maid, she looked up and glanced at the young man in front of her, with a slender figure, a delicate face, and a strange color in her eyes that she had never seen before.

"Miss, are you like this?"

It wasn't until she felt someone shaking her shoulders that Shen Ningyu woke up from this feeling, and just secretly glanced at the young man in front of her, and even she couldn't say the reason, her face was flushed, like a ripe fruit that exuded a sweet fragrance.

Chu Ming said: "Miss Shen misunderstood, the exam of the Spell Academy will start in a few days, I just came to your mansion to borrow a spell book in order to improve my grades." ”

"Sister, that's it." Shen Liangcai helped on the side, but for some reason annoyed this Second Miss Shen again, she glared at her brother, "Don't call me sister, and besides, the person who is with you will definitely not be a good thing." As she spoke, she glanced at the delicate strange boy again.

It turns out that this is how the unjustified disaster was suffered...... Although he has known each other for a short time, Chu Ming has a deep feeling for Shen Dagongzi's conduct, and standing with such a person will inevitably make people misunderstood.

Seeing that his sister was a little panicked and fled, Shen Liangcai punched Chu Ming, and said in an ambiguous tone: "Brother Chu, my sister seems to be very interested in you, why don't you introduce the Su City Lord to me, how about I help you match my sister?" ”

"Miss Shen just felt guilty because of what she just said." Chu Ming smiled, one of the three major illusions in life is "I thought she liked me", but in fact, a girl smiles at you, often talks to you, and speaks to defend you, not because she likes you, but because she is very kind, which is a gentle trap.

According to Chu Ming's request, Shen Liang brought him to his own spell library, because it was only the content of the exam, it did not involve precious single fragments, and there were no powerful forbidden spells, so he was very relieved to let outsiders stay here, in addition to this superficial library, the Shen family also had a secret place that only the head of the family, Shen Fugui, could enter.

The sun sets and rises, and soon the day before the Spell Academy exams arrives.

Dead.

Chu Ming walked out of the spell library with dark circles on his face, the possibility of less than fifty percent was now increased to more than ninety, and he was confident that he could be admitted to a magic academy.

He looked up at the sky, only to see the starry sky, but only a beautiful moon was missing, this is not the original world, there are stars and suns here, but there is no moon, I remembered a poem in my heart, but it became a soft sigh when I came to my mouth, "Look up without a bright moon, why miss your hometown." ”

After chanting silently, a light screen appeared in front of him, and Chu Ming looked at the three words "adventurer" on it.

What is an adventurer?

The true meaning is unfettered freedom, the roc flutters its wings for thousands of miles, and the giant whale swims in the sea.

Travel to uncharted territories and discover the world's ultimate mysteries.

Adventurers are the embodiment of freedom.

If the mind is not bound, you can be at ease.

Whether it is the younger sister who has crossed into this world like herself, or the female city lord of the "bone control" she has encountered, the energetic scout girl, the two cat clan little Loli who has been rescued, and the unique character of Shen Dagongzi, all of them make Chu Ming feel the reality of this world.

Perhaps, this is not just a game, but a real world.
