Qinghe City.

In the Qin Mansion, in an antique hall, many middle-aged scribes gathered here, buried their heads on the desks, and thick account books, abacus and other things were piled up next to them.

These middle-aged scribes are all bookkeepers who are proficient in arithmetic, and they are indispensable right-hand men for the Qin family to maintain and operate major industries.

"It's calculated, in the first half of this year, the Yuelai Restaurant under the name of our Qin family, the total income and expenditure was 137,500 taels, and the total income was 93,600 taels excluding the expenses such as the men's wages, ushering in the delivery, and purchasing sundries."

A gentle and elegant bookkeeper said, "If you sell Yuelai Restaurant at a low price, plus the silver stored in the storehouse of the restaurant, you can make up 270,000 taels of silver, and it will not be a big problem." ”

When Qin Hongyu heard this, he nodded slowly, his face was calm, and he couldn't see his joy or anger.

He turned to look at the other bookkeeper: "What about the antique shop?" The antique shop opened by our Qin family is far more than just Qinghe City, and there is a lot of investment. Now that the antique shop is sold cheaply, plus the original income of the store, the total amount should be about one million gold and silver, is this amount right? ”

The bookkeeper smiled bitterly: "My lord, although there are many antique shops opened by our Qin family, most of them are in other places, and those antique shops want to change hands, even if they sell them at a low price, they can't find too good people to take over for a while." ”

After a pause, He Tent Fang sighed and told the truth: "Those outsiders are so interested that they seem to have gathered together to discuss, and they have colluded and are all watching from the wall. They want to wait for our Qin family to be unable to support it, and then take advantage of the fire to rob and complete the acquisition at a lower price......"

Before the words fell, another account clerk who was in charge of calculating the income and expenditure of the calligraphy and painting shop also said: "More than a dozen calligraphy and painting shops under the command of our Qin family are also facing this dilemma. The money in the treasury can be easily taken out, but it is not so easy to resell the store at a suitable price......"

"The same is true of our Qin family's medicinal herb shop."

"And the silk shop..."

"The industry in Qinghe City is okay, there are acquaintances to help take over, and the price given is fair. But those outsiders are different, all of them are very ghostly, and they all want to take advantage of the fire to rob. In this case, if the store is sold cheaply, our Qin family will definitely lose a huge loss. ”

"At the end of the day, three months is too little, and if we had more time, we wouldn't have to..."

The gentlemen of the tent had sad faces, and kept sighing.

At present, the Qin family is at a critical juncture, and many wealthy wolves, tigers and leopards hidden in the shadows have shown their fangs one after another, trying to fall into the well and tear off pieces of fat on the Qin family's body.

Qin Hongyu listened sentence by sentence, his face was expressionless, but he fell silent.

At this time, there was a sudden noise outside the hall, and then, an old figure broke into the hall and hurriedly reported: "Master..."

Qin Hongyu sighed in his heart, thinking that something bad had happened: "But the elders arrived early?" Don't panic, let's prepare a guard of honor and go out of the city to greet you. ”

The old man shook his head and said with a happy face: "The elder group is still halfway there, and it will arrive the day after tomorrow." It was Young Master Qin Ziyun, he was back, and he was also carrying a big python spirit beast by his side, with a majestic body and great spirituality, and he was performing martial arts and was watching from many young disciples of the family. ”

"Oh? Ziyun's kid left a letter and went to the Lianyun Mountains to practice, which made me worry for a while, and now he actually brought back some spirit beasts. ”

Having said that, Qin Hongyu couldn't hide his joy, "Let's go, let's go to the martial arts arena and have a look." ”

Qin Hongyu waved his hand, and in the hall, many account gentlemen were interested, put down their pen and ink abacus, and followed together, and came to the side of the martial arts arena.

The Qin family's martial arts arena is paved with hard Qingfeng stone, and at this moment, the martial arts arena of Nuoda has been surrounded by water, and the juniors of the Qin family saw Qin Hongyu and his party coming, and immediately gave way to a road.

Qin Hongyu and the others immediately saw that in the innermost layer of the martial arts arena, there was a black-scaled snake with a huge body, this giant python looked arrogant, facing the fingers of the juniors, and resolutely lay down beside a white-robed young man, enjoying the lazy sunbathing, motionless.

The others are okay, most of them are the strength of the Quenching Body Realm, even if there are a few Awakening Soul Realm martial artists, they are also the old men of the Qin family, their body qi and blood are weak and lacking, and their combat power is not strong.

But Qin Hongyu is different, he is the Triple Heaven of the Awakening Soul Realm, he has stepped into this realm for many years, and his skills are profound, which immediately attracted the attention of the black python.

Obviously, the black python regarded Qin Hongyu as a threat, and the emerald green snake pupils shrank slightly, revealing a trace of anthropomorphic vigilance, as if it only needed a command from the white-robed young man, it would immediately bite it.

Qin Hongyu was shocked in his heart: "What a terrible intuition! It's terrible murderous! This python locked on me in an instant, and its strength is probably far beyond me, equivalent to a Hundred Tribulations Realm martial artist. ”

The white-robed young man beside the black python was Qin Ziyun, and he slapped the black python's head with a palm, and scolded: "This is my father, why don't you hurry up and see the courtesy?" ”

The black python suddenly reined in its murderous aura, it looked a little aggrieved, facing Qin Hongyu, bowing its head, like a junior, and actually nodded and saluted.

Among the onlookers, many people were amazed and amazed when they saw this scene.

Suddenly, a man who came to see the excitement spoke, his surname was He, he was born in a declining martial arts family, and when he was young, he traveled south and north for many years, and then devoted himself to serving Qin Hongyu.

"My lord, this fierce beast brought back by the young master seems to be a little unusual..."He Tent's eyes were like torches, as if he had discovered something, and his expression became a little cautious, "If I am not mistaken, this is an ancient xenomorph called the Black Jiao Python, extremely intelligent, and born with the ability to transform Jiao..."

As soon as these words came out, many people gasped, and their shocked eyes looked back at Qin Ziyun and the black python, and they were speechless in shock.

"It is extremely difficult for a black python to turn into a dragon, and it needs to go through hundreds of molts before it can produce pieces of soft scales. The black python in front of us is not only full of soft scales, but also has two big bags on the top of its head, both of which are about to grow dragon horns! ”

After listening to He Tent's explanation, Qin Hongyu showed a trace of difficulty in confidence on his face, and glanced at Qin Ziyun with a complicated gaze. He finally understood how big the growth potential of the black python was, the snake turned into a dragon, it was simply terrifying!

Qin Ziyun said: "Father, I know you have a lot of doubts now, I'll explain to you slowly later." What we have to do now is to find a quiet place to serve as a place for the black python to feed. ”

The so-called word woke up the person in the dream, Qin Hongyu immediately reacted, and instructed the old man beside him: "Uncle Fu, just offer the black python in the ancestral shrine, the territory over there is big enough, and the environment is quiet, no one disturbs it, it is the most suitable." I'll leave that to you. ”

The old man nodded, dispersed the crowd of onlookers, and walked in the direction of the ancestral shrine. The black python could understand human speech, and without Qin Ziyun's instructions, he swaggered behind the old man and went all the way.

Qin Ziyun followed his father Qin Honglie and his party and returned to the hall. He put the bulging bags on the table, and strange wooden beads the size of peach pits rolled out.

Qin Hongyu's gaze was attracted, he picked up one of the black wooden beads, felt the abundant ability contained in it, and immediately said in surprise: "This is the Inner Dan of the Flying Demon Spider?" And this, so big, is it the Inner Dan of the Golden Bull? And these fierce beast furs, oh my God, Ziyun, what kind of danger have you experienced to bring back so many treasures from the Lianyun Mountain Range. ”

"And this silver fur, which is owned by the Blue Fire Fox, is worth at least more than 300,000 silver. The fox is as vicious as a tiger and cunning as a wolf, not only good at spitting blue fire, but also born with a pair of flattering eyes, able to bewitch others in battle, and directly make the other party give up resistance. ”

Just as he was amazed, a tent gentleman gathered beside him suddenly found a jade wrench from the corner of the package, he took it out and looked at it for a while, and his voice gradually trembled: "Yuan... Vitality wrench... This turned out to be a vitality wrench! Just this vitality wrench, take it to the auction to bid, and you can bid for millions of silver at the lowest, and there is no price in the market, so there is no need to worry about the situation that no one cares about! ”

"Not bad! With these treasures, the major industries under the command of our Qin family do not need to be sold cheaply, which just solves our urgent needs. ”

"It's too timely for Young Master Ziyun to come back......"

All the tent gentlemen were impressed by Qin Ziyun.

There were so many surprises he received today that Qin Hongyu was a little numb, he looked at Qin Ziyun who was smiling and silent, and after the father and son came to a secret room, they asked with a solemn expression: "Ziyun, you went to Lianyun Mountain Range to practice, what happened, you have to explain it truthfully." ”

Qin Ziyun knew that this day was coming, and he immediately said the words that had been prepared for a long time: "Father, I had an adventure in the depths of the Lianyun Mountain Range and discovered an ancient cave mansion!" ”

Qin Hongyu was not surprised at all, when he saw the ancient heterogeneous black python brought back by Qin Ziyun before, he had a vague guess in this regard, "The Gu Yuan Continent is vast and rich, and there are many capable people. Your grandfather also had an adventure back then, and he met a Buddhist monk, which won the ...... of our Qin family's current "Little Thunder Sound Fist"

Qin Ziyun shook his head, "Father, the adventures I have obtained are far from being comparable to Xiao Lei Yin Fist. In that Ancient Cave Mansion, there was an old man who had already sat down, and he left behind the Gong, Fa inheritance, and an emerald green fruit, all of which I obtained. ”

Immediately, Qin Ziyun told the opening part of "Heaven Swallowing Divine Skill", Qin Hongyu listened carefully, trying to find loopholes in this exercise, but he didn't find loopholes, but the more he listened, the more shocked he became, and his mind was dazed.

"Ziyun, don't say it again, I've been able to confirm that this exercise is true. The words of this exercise are exquisite, and the avenue expounded is so unbelievable that I have never heard of more than enough to make up for what is lacking. I'm afraid this has surpassed the first-class exercises and reached the king-level level! ”

Qin Hongyu said with great solemnity: "Ziyun, no one is allowed to disclose this adventure, otherwise I am afraid it will cause a big disaster!" What about the fruit? If you think it's not a mortal thing, have you eaten it? ”

Qin Ziyun nodded cautiously, "Father, I ate that fruit, so I was able to successfully cultivate the Heaven Swallowing Divine Skill and condense the cyclone in my body." I'm already a master of the Hundred Tribulations Realm now! ”

As soon as the words fell, the Golden Bell Martial Spirit was revealed from his body, and golden runes surrounded it, revealing a trace of sacredness and heaviness.

"The martial soul turns the virtual into reality, this is the ability to step into the Hundred Tribulations Realm, no wonder, even the powerful ancient alien species like the black python, you can successfully surrender, and you have brought back so many treasures."

Qin Hongyu made up everything by himself.

When Qin Ziyun saw this scene, a trace of guilt flashed in his heart. The secrets on his body are so amazing that even close relatives like his father can't tell them, and it's also out of desperation.

You must know that the gluttonous desolate god is a powerful existence that does not belong to the Gu Yuan Continent, so Qin Ziyun can't be cautious.
