Chapter 543: Goodbye
It took a while for Li Jiu to persuade Jiongjiong, after all, the child didn't have anything in her heart, and after her mind calmed down, she focused on Han Ming and kept asking questions.
"Uncle, where is your home?!"
"How many people are in your family?!"
"And do you have a drink?!"
"If you want to drink, you might as well order our wine, my grandfather's wine is delicious. ”
For some reason, this Jiong Jiong continuously asked these questions that made Han Ming smile bitterly.
The Li family is a winemaking family, and the fine wine produced is quite famous in the surrounding area.
It's just that after Li Jiu took over the family business, he was too obsessed with the way of winemaking, and he didn't care about improving the strength of his family and his own strength, so that in the face of today's embarrassing situation, he was helpless and humiliated.
It's simple to say that Li Jiu's Baihua Jinggu Brew is so delicious that the surrounding brewing families are all in a depression and their financial routes are blocked, so this group of people naturally joined forces to deal with the Li family secretly.
They first joined forces to control the wine market and depressed the price of wine, resulting in the price of Baihua Jinggu Brewing having to reduce the price, but the cost of Baihua Jinggu Brewing is not low, and the profit will naturally be low if the price is low.
Later, he used a trick to slander Li Jiu for brewing Baihua Jinggu Brewing and adding elixir to the fragrance, and deliberately found someone to trouble the Li family, as well as the trouble of the restaurant who dared to buy Baihua Jinggu Brew, so that the Li family's Baihua Jinggu Brewing sales were blocked, and the daily loss was huge.
Li Jiu hired a caravan of horses to prepare to carry wine for sale, who expected that the people here would tell the winemakers from all over the country first, so in order to prevent Li Jiu's Baihua Jinggu Brew from grabbing the market, the winemaking families from all over the country even joined forces to drive Li Jiu back.
For the research of Baihua Essence Valley Brewing, Li Jiu exhausted his family property, and even the benefits of the elders of the clan could not be paid, and now a group of people in the clan are waiting for the Baihua Essence Valley Brew to sell well, but the sales are helpless, and the Li family is in a desperate situation.
The youngest grandson Li Jie understood his grandfather Li Jiu's worries, so he also thought hard about a solution to the dilemma, but hated himself for being young and powerless, so he vented his anger on his sister Jiongjiong.
Although Jiong Jiong is young, he is sensible and well-behaved, so he asked Han Ming those questions, wanting to help his grandfather find a market.
But Han Ming really couldn't help, and even if he knew the truth and thought twice, he could only ignore it.
As soon as he came to the atrium realm, it seemed a little irrational to offend almost all the brewing families in the vicinity.
Fortunately, Li Jiu is also an understanding person, and he didn't ask Han Ming to help because he pointed out the car and drank alcohol on the road to Han Ming, if that was the case, Han Ming could only disappoint Li Jiu, and he would flatly refuse.
Another reason is naturally that Li Jiu thinks that Han Ming can be of any use alone, a battle hero rank powerhouse is too weak in the atrium realm!
An hour's flight, but the caravan took nearly six hours.
When it was approaching dusk, Han Ming's sight finally appeared in the Dragon City where the Dragon Clan's mercenary group was located.
Compared to Xia City, which can be called a small country, Dragon City is much more normal, just like the scale of a big city outside the boundary.
The castle tower is 30 meters high, and the walls are made of black granite.
There is a three-meter dragon flag on the battlements, and hundreds of warriors with fine armor and sharp blades patrol and guard above the city tower, and the breath is basically the seventh or eighth rank of the war general.
In addition to these superficial guard forces, Han Ming also keenly sensed that there were several strong fighting spirits in the dark castle near the city tower.
Compared to Xia City, Dragon City looks like a war fortress, heavily guarded.
"Little friend, this is Dragon City. Li Jiu glanced at the dragon-shaped banner on the battlements of Dragon City in awe and told Han Mingdao.
Finally arrived at the destination, Han Ming was overjoyed, turned over and got out of the car and thanked him: "Thank you, old man." ”
"Hahahaha, it's okay, it's okay, if Han Xiaoyou is free in the future, you can go to the Crouching Tiger Mountain in front of you to come to our Li family as a guest, and the wine is enough." ”
Li Jiu stroked his long white beard and laughed loudly.
"Okay, I'll definitely go, I haven't drunk enough of the old man's wine. Han Ming nodded and grinned.
The meeting in Pingshui is naturally not a deep friendship, and this is just a set of two sentences.
"Uncle, goodbye!" Jiong Jiong lay on the back of the car, beckoned to Han Ming, and said sweetly.
"Well, Jiongjiong, goodbye. ”
After Li Jiu took the convoy away, Han Mingcai stood in front of the gate of Dragon City, and to his surprise, the number of people entering and leaving the city was very small in the huge Dragon City.
It may be because there is a column of elite soldiers with spears in front of the city gate, all of them have fierce faces, and there is a trace of blood on their bodies, which makes people feel worried.
If ordinary people saw it, they would have been nervous in their hearts, but Han Ming himself was a killing god, smiled indifferently, and walked to the city gate.
"Stop, what are you doing in the city?!" The captain of the team guarding the city gate frowned, and his eyes suddenly leaked a terrifying cold light, stopping Han Ming.
Han Ming smiled slightly, arched his hands and said, "Oh, I am an ordinary war male outside the realm, and I have come to join the Long Clan mercenary group." ”
"Do you have a token to recommend? If you don't have one, please wait until early tomorrow morning when Dragon City starts recruiting mercenaries. ”
Because the guard is about to change, this squad leader doesn't want to make more trouble for himself, his face is impatient, and his tone is indifferent.
"Yes, yes!" Han Ming took out the dragon token given by Long Ling'er.
When the team leader saw the token that Han Ming was holding, he was instantly smart, his eyes were round, and he didn't wait for Han Ming to give it to him, so he quickly took it in his hand, and after observing it carefully, his eyes rolled, and his expression instantly became extremely respectful.
"Okay, my lord, wait a minute, I'll report to Miss Long. The squad leader took the token, hurriedly entered the city, mounted his horse, and galloped towards the Long family's mansion.
When the other spear guards guarding the city saw their captain's reaction, they knew that Han Ming's identity was extraordinary, so they hurriedly found a bench from the car, poured tea, and entertained Han Ming.
The gap between the front and the back is so big, it makes Han Ming a little speechless, but for these, he also deals with them calmly.
Just as he glanced at the city, the dragon city was not as desolate as in front of the city gate, but it was very lively, and the neighborhood shops had already hung lanterns, and the crowds of people were surging.
Although the degree of prosperity is not as good as that of Xia Cheng, it is more of the smell of fireworks in the world.
However, in just half a pillar of incense, I saw the crowd retreating in an uproar, and a group of elite cavalry rushed over, and at the front was Long Ling'er, who was wearing black armor and had a sassy and heroic appearance.
She herself has a superior appearance and a good figure, and when she wears a close-fitting black armor, she looks even more beautiful, with a kind of wild unrestrainedness, which makes people feel a sense of conquest.
Han Ming didn't expect that Long Ling'er, who looked soft and weak, would have a unique charm after putting on the battle suit, which was even more eye-catching.
Long Ling'er rode a snow-white dragon wildebeest to take the lead in the wild sweep, and the demeanor on her delicate face and beautiful eyes couldn't help but be impressed.
Whether it was on the city tower or under the city tower, the eyes of the guards all converged on Long Ling'er, and all of them showed yearning and fiery expressions on their faces.
