Chapter 498: Illegal Business Operations
In any case, as the rules allow, Hanhai won the first place, and climbed directly to the throne from the penultimate in the previous session, which is a fact that cannot be erased.
It's just that in the eyes of many people, they are invincible, but no matter what, the first is the first, and the mouth of the Hanhai cultivators is about to smile crookedly!
The group battle of the Thirteen Continents Competition was over, and people could finally walk out of the lounge, and the Hanhai bigwigs with Lin Jianfeng came to greet them in person, and chartered the entire Imperial Palace, Qin Chuan and the other twelve young monks enjoyed hero-like treatment, and the excitement at the banquet went without saying.
The next day, the host Yunlai Xiuxian Alliance and the adjudication team held a simple ceremony, one was to announce the team rankings and crown the list, and the other was to determine the rules for the individual ranking battle in a month.
The so-called coronation is to hand over a crown symbolizing honor to the leader of Hanhai, similar to the nature of the championship trophy, as for the affordable things, there is no such thing, but everyone doesn't care, anyway, the real purpose of participating in the big competition is not honor, but the qualification to enter the Blue Rain Immortal Mansion, that is to say, Hanhai has achieved thirteen places, as for the ownership of the remaining thirty-nine places, it depends on the performance in the individual qualifying battle.
In addition, the individual competition is set for a month later, mainly to provide enough time for those injured monks to recuperate, otherwise there are too few people who can play in teams like Zhongzhou and Beihuang, which will directly affect their results.
After the ceremony, the real harvest season arrived, and everyone went to the betting points of the four major business alliances to "redeem the prize", Qin Chuan was undoubtedly the biggest winner, because he invested the most, followed by the fire dragon boy, his radical bet this time was right, all in all, a large amount of spirit stones were in the bag, and everyone was in an excellent mood.
"This spirit stone is so cool, why don't we continue to participate in gambling and see if we can make another profit!"
Everyone had just tasted the sweetness, and Liu Nanfeng's proposal was naturally unanimously approved.
I asked a business alliance manager about the betting of the personal battle, and when Qin Chuan heard that he had actually become the top three on the Blue Rain Billboard, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this time he was famous all over the world.
The bet on the individual is mainly a bet on the position, and he learned that the odds of entering the top ten are only o.5, and the odds of becoming a list are only 1 to 1, so he decisively gave up the bet.
Others, in the spirit of small gambling pleasure and the mentality that they have already made money anyway, invested a little, and then everyone couldn't help but eat and drink again.
Back at his residence, Qin Chuan gave the materials blackmailed from Miao Zhen to the Immortal Cone's Instrument Spirit, and then adjusted his state, repaired the magic weapon, and prepared for the subsequent personal battle.
Within two days of his leisurely life, the consequences of his fame were revealed, and every day a crowd of people came to write a war letter, and it was not known how these people found out where he lived, in short, it was unbearable.
Qin Chuan went to find the monks who guarded the cliff theory, these "community security" spread their hands and said that they couldn't help, which made him very angry but helpless, what he didn't know was that it was because he led Hanhai to win the first place in the big competition that it attracted the dissatisfaction of the locals, and it is not difficult to imagine that this situation will be encountered.
The sign of closing the door has been broken many times, and in order to seek peace, he even used the Liuhe Xuanshui Forbidden Array, fortunately, those people are not crazy enough to attack the formation, otherwise if there is an incident, the monks from the other big 6 will suspect that the security work of the Yunlai Immortal Cultivation Alliance is not in place.
Late at night on the seventh day after the end of the group battle, Qin Chuan, who was in the middle of the battle, was suddenly woken up by Qin Qing, "What?"
"Someone touched the formation!"
Qin Chuan was slightly startled, in the middle of the night, there would definitely be no one to challenge or anything at this time, and hurriedly released his divine sense, but there was no trace of anyone outside the array.
"Are you sure someone deliberately touched the formation just now?"
"I'm sure that the other party has broken through at least seven or eight layers of defense in the Xuanshui Forbidden Array!"
"It seems that someone is trying to plot against me!" counted the enemies, but there were really too many to count, but there were still a few who were willing to take risks to find trouble.
After thinking about it for a long time, he still didn't dare to determine who the other party was, but this feeling of being like a man on his back was very bad, and he planned to "create" a condition for the guy hiding in the shadows to do it.
In order not to be abrupt, he didn't make any moves on the second day, and on the third day, he contacted the brokers who had helped buy the ginseng before, and asked them to let out the news and continue to buy the ginseng in large quantities, and rented a relatively secluded courtyard at a high price through one of the brokers as a trading location.
The façade of the small courtyard can be used as a pavement, and the three houses can be used as a place for rest and cultivation, such a small and remote place, the rent for a year is as high as three thousand medium-grade spirit stones, if you buy it, I don't know how much it will cost.
The brokers in Jinque City have great powers, and soon the news of a certain monk surnamed Qin in Hanhai buying Xuan Shen became known to everyone, and even Lin Jianfeng heard the rumors, "Xiao Qin, I heard that you temporarily rented a shop in order to buy Xuan Shen?"
"Seniors have heard about it too?"
"Well, it's the same with the acquisition of ginseng in the hive, it's not safe to live alone!"
"It's okay, it's all in Jinque City anyway, if you have anything, send me a note!"
Lin Jianfeng saw that he had made up his mind, so he no longer persuaded him, "You have to be more careful, notify me in time if there is anything!"
Everything was arranged, and he took Shang Yutong, Xuyun and others to visit the new house, and then waited for the "guests" to come to the door.
Before the purchase of Xuanshen opened, the "business management" of Jinque City came to the door, and there were three people in total, wearing uniform dark blue clothes, for a horse-faced monk who looked in his thirties, and the three of them came in and looked around, "Are you the shopkeeper here?"
Qin Chuan was not kind to the other party, so he naturally wouldn't follow his words, "Shopkeeper, what shopkeeper, this is a private residence!"
"Don't deny it, we have received a report that you are engaged in illegal business activities!"
"Oh, what do you call illegal business activities?"
"Shops that are not registered with the Business Management Commission are called illegal business activities!"
"But here in my private residence, do you see any goods for sale?"
"Hmph, isn't the acquisition of ginseng a business activity?"
"I'm an alchemist, can't I collect enough medicinal materials to make my own alchemy?"
"Alchemist, how do you prove that you are an alchemist?" said the horse-faced monk with a slight quiver at the corners of his mouth.
Qin Chuan really wanted to break this guy's neck, but he had already noticed that there were city guards shaking not far away, if he moved roughly, fools would know what the consequences would be?
"Can the Zhongzhou Alchemist Scroll prove it?"
"Midstate's... Huh... Who knows if it's true or not, you have to be Yunlai's alchemist scroll!"
"Okay, so what do you want?"
"Confiscate illegal gains, and seal the shop!"
Qin Chuan nodded, "You guys wait a while, I'll make a call... Ah no... Call my friend and let him prove that I am really an alchemist!"
The transmission note came out, but there was a feeling of sudden dream in my heart, the conversation just now touched some memories of my previous life, this scene seems familiar!
About a pillar of incense, a hearty laugh came, "Congratulations to Qin Daoyou for winning the first place in the group competition!"
"I knew there would be so much trouble, I should have released the water at that time to let you Yunlai be the first!"
Lan smiled slightly, and after asking about what happened, he turned his head and said to the three "business managers": "You can get out!"
The horse-faced monk was about to be angry, but now he has a lot of aura, and he must not be an ordinary person, so his tone couldn't help but calm down, "Who are you?
"Hmph, Qin Daoyou is my friend of Lan, and he is also a VIP of the Cross-Sea Business Alliance, if you don't want to work in the Business Management Association, I can fulfill you!"
Hearing the words of the Cross-Sea Business Alliance, the face of the horse-faced monk changed slightly, the business management committee is nominally in charge of the shops, but in fact it is not an official organization, it is true that the Yunlai Immortal Cultivation Alliance is the boss here, but the real executors of the operation and management of Jinque City are the four major business alliances.
Lan's performance was very arrogant, but the horse-faced monk was not intimidated, because who could instruct him to come and find trouble, how could it be an ordinary person?" "What about the Cross-Sea Business Alliance? The Business Management Council is not owned by you, please don't hinder me from performing my official duties!"
"Hey, it's quite tough!" Lan couldn't help but look the other party up and down a few times, if he had heard the name of the Cross-Sea Business Alliance before, the other party would have run away in disgrace, but now he actually dared to put on his own face, with his exquisite mind, he immediately guessed that the backstage of this guy was very hard, and he was a little reckless to go to this troubled water.
Hearing the hesitation in the other party's tone, the horse-faced monk had to nod a sentence, "If you have any questions, go to our Deacon Fan to negotiate, this shop is operating illegally and must be sealed!"
"Deacon Fan, did you say that Fan Jianren sent you?"
"This area is already under my jurisdiction, so I can't say who instructed it!"
Qin Chuan saw that Lan's momentum was not as strong as just now, and his face was different, "Lan Daoyou, since you are embarrassed, forget it, just want to buy some Xuanshen, if he wants to seal it, let him seal it!"
"What are these words? You are the VIP of our Cross-Sea Business Alliance, if he wants to embarrass you, you will not give face to the Business Alliance!" He turned to the horse-faced monk and said, "Now I will give you a chance, if you don't get out again, don't blame my subordinates for being ruthless!"
"Senior Lan, you have to think about it carefully, there is no need to offend our Demon Yuan Business Alliance for an outsider!"
"Do you want me to say that again?" said Lan's tone, which became cold.
The horse-faced monk secretly communicated with the two companions, they knew that if Lan beat them, it was likely to be a white fight, and the hero would not suffer the immediate loss, since the incident had escalated, he could also invite the big man to appear.
"Senior Lan, this matter is not over!" After speaking, the three of them walked out of the shop together.
Seeing them leave, Qin Chuan arched his hand and said, "Thank you Lan Daoyou for relieving the siege, this favor Qin has written down!"
"Qin Daoyou doesn't have to be polite, but I'm afraid this matter is a little difficult to do, the Demon Yuan Business Alliance and our Cross-Sea Business Alliance have always been at odds, and I'm not afraid of offending them, but the other party is targeting you so much, I suspect there is another reason!"
"Oh, aren't your four major business alliances in the same spirit?"
"This is the case externally, but there is a saying that peers are enemies, and it is inevitable that there will be some friction in the business field, and behind the Demon Alliance are several big demons, so they often act aggressively, unlike our cross-sea business alliance that pays more attention to goodwill!"
Hearing the forces behind the other party, Qin Chuan's heart moved, "According to Lan Daoyou's meaning, what should I do next?"
Lan Shen groaned slightly, "First of all, let's occupy the word first, isn't it the alchemist's scroll, I'll have someone send it!"
Qin Chuan felt that things were a little tricky, if he was in Hanhai, he didn't have to worry about anything, but he was currently in the midst of the Thirteen Continents Competition, and he was on someone else's territory, so it was really not appropriate to act rashly, and he couldn't say that he would also give Lin Jianfeng a note.
After a short time, a few people walked into the shop, a middle-aged man was very generous, and next to him was the horse-faced monk just now.
"Who am I so rampant that I dare to stop my business management committee from performing official duties, it turns out to be Deacon Lan of the Cross-Sea Business Alliance!"
"Huh... Performing official duties? Please don't insult the word official business!"
The middle-aged man's eyebrows straightened, "The surname is blue, there is nothing to do with you here, if you know each other, leave quickly!"
Lan sneered, "What if I have to care?"
"I'm sorry then!"
Of course, Qin Chuan can't let Lan Ding, otherwise he will owe a lot of favors, and he can't sigh, "You are the 'slut', right? Do you know the consequences of trespassing into a private house?"
"What kind of trespassing, you are operating illegally, and our business management committee has the right to investigate and deal with it!"
The middle-aged man is very vigilant, if he is really detained as a private trespasser, things will be difficult to do, after all, in the world of cultivating immortals, this is a relatively taboo thing, especially here is still in Jinque City, to put it mildly, even if he is beaten to death, he will die in vain, and although the person in front of him is only in the late stage of Jindan, he is still clear about the strength of the other party, and he is not sure to win the other party, and the main thing is that the other party represents Hanhai, and dying in Dabi is nothing, but dying in the city is a serious "diplomacy" At that time, some people will inevitably have to be sacrificed to appease the anger of the Hanhai people, and the purpose of their bureau is not to ask for their lives, but to get back a treasure.
"You have to figure it out, I'm an alchemist, just collect some medicinal materials for alchemy, if you don't get out again, none of you guys want to leave!"
"Who is so rampant that they dare to do something in Jinque City!" A yin and yang strange voice came from outside, and then a powerful middle-aged man in a purple gold armor walked into the store, "Tsk, there are so many people, it's really lively!"
When Lan saw this person, his face was ugly, and he secretly sent a message to Qin Chuan: "This person is Meng Chunlei, the commander of the city guards of Jinque City, and Meng Chunyang is his nephew!"
Qin Chuan nodded, this surnamed Meng has been circling outside for a long time, but the other party seems to be a little uncontrollable, if there is a fight inside, it will be better for him to come in again, and now that he came in early, he just gave himself the opportunity to borrow the question, and suddenly shouted in his mouth, "What a thief, you dare to trespass into a private house!"
Before the words fell, a white pillar of light suddenly shot out of his sleeve.
