Xuanjing City, listen to the bamboo garden.

Located in the south corner of the city, Tingzhu Xiaoyuan, few people know what it does.

It is not open to the public, nor is it open to the public, let alone outsiders.

This small piece of bamboo is located in the bamboo forest in the city, with a small and delicate bamboo building.

The small building is verdant, divided into two floors, and guards are arranged around it.

At this time, on the second floor of the small building, the emerging wealthy businessmen from the city gathered together to participate in the Zizhu Festival held by Tianyinmen.

As the largest sect force in the vicinity, the Tianyin Sect held this Purple Bamboo Meeting. The purpose is to choose a partner for the inner court disciples in their own courtyard.

Zhao Wanzhu, as the current host of the Zizhu Club, is not the strongest, but interpersonal communication is the most suitable one.

At this time, she stood in the small hall on the second floor, on a slightly raised platform, smiling at the businessmen who came to attend the meeting.

"This time, the candidates for the Zizhu Club have all come out, and there are a total of eight people from the nine major courtyards. I have already placed the wooden cards of the eight masters of the inner courtyard in front of you.

If you choose a master, give the corresponding wooden card to the waiter who collects it. ”

There were not only emerging businessmen present, but also newly rising small gang leaders.

All of them have one thing in common, and that is the lack of strong masters.

This kind of gathering is generally only organized by the inner court disciples themselves, because the level of style is not very high.

There were more than a dozen funders present, and three of them were the most eye-catching.

Zhao Kun, the leader of the Lieyu Gang, Lou Jian, the owner of Qianyufang, and Jin He, the owner of Jin Shige.

Zhao Wanzhu's main attention was also on these three people.

"The eight new entrants of the Nine Annexes in the past few months have completed the investigation of the information, and it is determined that there is no problem, and I will guarantee it by the corresponding courtyard of my Tianyin Gate. You can check the information and then you can cast.

After that, I will bring your information and give it to the corresponding peers, and they will decide whether to cooperate with the bettor or not. ”

"I've said this many times, and everyone who comes here naturally understands it. Sister Zhao doesn't need to say much. Someone laughed.

"Okay, then I'm out of the way here. Ladies and gentlemen, please. ”

Zhao Wanzhu smiled slightly.

Eight disciples, eight wooden cards, each with it in his hand.

Soon, the people with the greatest potential in each courtyard were voted for by those who had already known about it for the first time.

Then there is the second most potential, which is competed by the same subordinate wealthy merchant gangs.

Lin Xiaoxiao stood in the corner, holding a wooden card in her hand, and her beautiful eyes were a little dazed.

The first time she participated in the Purple Bamboo Club, since her father died of illness? If you are in trouble at home, you will be in trouble.

Some rival merchants who maliciously compete hire bastards to interfere with the store. This has led to a series of losses in recent months.

As a last resort, she was introduced by her best friend? Know the place where Zizhu will be? So come with the last hope.

If the strength of Shuifang is not the strongest in the entire Xuanjing City? It can only be considered medium.

But it has one of the strongest points, that is, the incense powder produced, gouache? Clothes? There is a fixed group of buyers, very loyal.

Lin Xiaoxiao's family has a special beast called the Alien Butterfly? Is it a special insect beast? It can produce very special aromatic liquids.

Is it with this? The Lin family's Rushui Fang? Can you stand still in Xuanjing City? The word of mouth is excellent.

Is it because of this? For example, the financial resources of the water mill are not known to outsiders. Unremarkable. was not noticed by Zhao Wanzhu.

At this time, Lin Xiaoxiao looked at the eight wooden cards in her hand, and then looked at the wooden cards lightly drawn with charcoal on the white wooden board in front of her.

Among them, there are several potential people, and there are already several contenders under the name.

Lin Xiaoxiao didn't plan to compete with the most financially powerful ones, and her eyes swept over the small words recorded on each wooden card.

"Xiaoxiao? Which one do you choose?" Asked softly.

"What do I think? Can you play with the best ones? Lin Zhao of the Competitive Gas Courtyard, Lin Zhao is seventeen years old and has three bloods, and he is talented? is highly valued by the division commander, if he can be invited to come forward, even if the actual combat is average, the background can block a lot of trouble. Wen Lian suggested.

She knows the financial resources of her best friend, this chain store seems ordinary, but the family property accumulated over the years is quite strong. Although it is not as rich as some of the big riches in the city, it is considered to be top-notch in this small field here.

Lin Xiaoxiao didn't like to say much, but shook her head slightly.

Although Lin Zhao is good, it is not suitable for her current situation.

She carefully checked the signs one by one, looking at the information of these eight people, their origins, family backgrounds, potentials, and so on.

Soon, most of the rest of the people were chosen, eight people under their names, and the counts varied.

The most is Lin Zhao, and there are five competitions under the name.

At least, there are three people who don't have a brand.

These three are either bad or have too little potential.

Lin Xiaoxiao carefully read the information, and with a decision in her eyes, she got up, handed out a wooden card in her hand, and handed it to the maid on the side.

The wooden card is one of the last three people who were not chosen, that is, Wei He's brand.

At this time, there were also the remaining people, and from the last three, another person was chosen to cast the cards.

End of counting.

"Xiaoxiao, are you crazy?!" her best friend Wen Lian on the side said in astonishment, "The person you chose does not have enough potential, and if you keep being stuck in the third blood in the future, you will suffer a big loss!"

This is a contract hosted by the Tianyin Gate, once it is signed, it cannot be reversed, do you know how much it costs to supply a third blood per month?"

"Yes. Lin Xiaoxiao nodded.

"Then you know that there are still random elections!?"

"I didn't pick randomly. Lin Xiaoxiao replied seriously, "Rushuifang needs him." ”

"You can compete for the best ones with your financial resources, is it necessary to choose a bad bet?" Wen Lian couldn't understand.

"I know. ”

"You'll regret it. It's not a matter of one day or two days, to supply an inner courtyard, but the shortest is to sign a three-year contract, and then how many golden tickets do you have to take out in three years?" Wen Lian was speechless.

"I understand. ”

Wen Lian was still chirping on the side, but Lin Xiaoxiao was unmoved. What she decided, no one could move.

At most, she explained a little, but after saying a few words, she was interrupted by her best friend.

She's not good at words, so that's all she can say.

What she values about Wei He is that she rushed to Taizhou with her sister from Yunzhou, and that she dared to take over the official patrol task of Xuanjing City alone.

Judging from these two details, it can be judged that this person's potential may not be good, but the actual combat is absolutely strong.

Others don't know, but she knows very well what the journey from Yunzhou to Taizhou is.

It can be said that if a knowledgeable businessman is present, he will never despise Wei He.

And now, what Rushuifang needs is a martial artist who is strong enough in actual combat. After all, she didn't offend the big guys, and the business didn't plan to continue to expand. Just keep it as it is.

And compete with several others, although the potential is strong, but.... It is likely that his temperament is not as good as that of Wei He.

This person was able to take his sister from Yunzhou and rush to Taizhou, which shows his affection.

Sometimes, character is more important than potential.

Lin Xiaoxiao raised her head seriously, looking at the counting board in front of her, under Wei He's name, and slowly added a horizontal.

Her best friend Wen Lian was helplessly interrupted on the side, and when it was her turn, she chose another inner courtyard named Song Zheng to compete. At this point, I'm already bargaining with others.

On Wei He's side, no one competed with Lin Xiaoxiao, so he passed this hurdle directly. Just wait for Wei He's side to agree.

"Lin Xiaoxiao, such as Shuifang?"

Wei He looked at the name and information of the sponsor he had just gotten.

Unexpectedly, it was a woman who chose him.

Speaking of which, he couldn't help but recall Guan Qi, who had a bold temperament at the beginning. At that time, the Guan family gave him a lot of care, and the last jar of wild beast meat is still full of memories.

It was a jar of magic medicine that could make the Realm Breaker Bead visible to the naked eye to increase progress.

Sometimes he also thinks that if he can eat wild beast meat every day, it will be the happiest life in the world.

Now that I think about it, the Guan family is really rich. Guan Kai should be the eldest lady who ran from Fucheng to Feiye City alone.

It can be seen from her research on the poisons of her organs that these things are not from everyone's background, and these things cannot be completed in a short time without the support of a large number of manpower and material resources.

When he came back to his senses, he had just gotten the sponsor's sign in the afternoon. He had been practicing the Five Spirits Breath Technique at home all these days, and now it had a good effect.

This skill is based on one's own control and understanding, and it does not require much from the root bones.

Wei He's strength lies in his comprehension, and many basic knowledge from modern times have given him a deeper understanding after integrating the martial arts knowledge system here.

At the same time, because he comes from modern consciousness, let him understand that knowledge is power.

Therefore, he should be regarded as one of the disciples in the Tianyin Sect who like to go to Tianyalou to read books the most.

Holding the wooden card, Wei He changed his clothes, greeted the second sister, and went to the agreed place in Xuanjing City.

This is the agreed time to meet with the sponsor.

If nothing else, the meeting is completed, and the intention of cooperation can be completely determined. Start funding.

He is now seriously short of money, and hopes that the sponsor can give a satisfactory answer.

From Tianyin Town all the way non-stop, Wei He arrived at Bear Mountain Town, Xuanjing City, when the sky was almost dark.

The agreed place is a restaurant called Bu Drunk Building.

At this time, on the top floor of the building, a large box has been completely wrapped.

Lin Xiaoxiao and Wen Lian sat side by side, with two personal guards standing behind them. is quietly waiting for Wei He's arrival.

Not drunk building is actually the property of Wen Lian's family. That's why we chose to meet here.

"I have met Song Zheng before, and the other party is very cultured, gentle and elegant, and has medium potential. If you want me to say, you should be like me, choose one of the people in the middle level.

With your financial resources, why do you have to be a maverick and gamble with your own money?" Wen Lian is still a little unhappy for her friends.

"I didn't bet. Lin Xiaoxiao shook her head.

She believes she can't be mistaken. For her, among the eight people, the person with the best character who can be seen from the information should be Wei He.

So she won't regret it.

Good character is the most important thing, and the rest, even if it is a little loss, she is at ease.

Because today's Rushuifang can't stand people's guesses, Wen Lian doesn't understand the truth.

In the pale yellow sè ancient sè antique box, after a while, a man wearing a Tianyin Gate strong suit walked in.

The two women looked at the person at the same time.

The man had a tiger's back and a bear's waist, was 1.9 meters tall, had a square face, his eyes were calm and powerful, and there was a faint hint of fishy wind when he walked.

Compared with the disciples of the other courtyards, the body size is larger, which makes people look fierce and intimidating.

Lin Xiaoxiao recalled that it was mentioned in the information that this person also practiced other martial arts, and presumably this body type was the effect of concurrently cultivating.

"Who is Lin Xiaoxiao?" the man entered the door, and Da Ma Jindao sat down, staring at the two of them.

"Me. Lin Xiaoxiao stood up. "Can I sign a contract?"

Wei Yiyi was stunned, he didn't expect the other party to be so refreshing.

"Yes. He also stood up.

"How much per month?" Lin Xiaoxiao asked.

"The more the merrier. Wei He was unceremonious.

"Two thousand gold at most. ”

"Good. ”

"It's a contract. Valid for three years. ”

Lin Xiaoxiao sighed and unfolded the contract that had been prepared for a long time.

After Wei He glanced at it, he dipped it in the ink and pressed his fingerprints.

"I'm short of money right now. Wei He said again.

"That's all the money I have for my activities. Lin Xiaoxiao took out a large stack of golden tickets from her arms and handed them over.

"Good. Wei He accepted it, "Notify me of something." ”

He said no more and got up to leave.

Lin Xiaoxiao also sat down calmly and began to pack her things.

When the two meet, from the time they open their mouth to the time they give the money, there are no more than twenty seconds in between.

By the time Wen Lian on the side reacted, everyone had already left.

"You're crazy!?" she screamed. "So much money, my God, do you know what you did? If Uncle comes back to life, he will be angry with you!"

"Lotus seeds. Lin Xiaoxiao suddenly looked at her.

"What are you doing!?" Wen Lian still hadn't recovered from the conversation between the two just now.

"Lend me money for the journey. ”

“...... You've even paid the carriage fare to go back?!" Wen Lian felt like she was going crazy.

"Don't borrow, don't borrow! You madman, you gave money so boldly just now, aren't you afraid of being cheated to death?

Wen Lian felt like her lungs were going to explode.

It's just that the girlfriend on the side kept staring at her with serious eyes, motionless.

"You guy!!What happened just now? Tell me what you did!?Don't say a word, give money! You are happy, you are not afraid to be in the water??! look, you guy will die sooner or later??"

"It's crazy, it's crazy! You say that you, once you choose someone, you will bumble forward with all your mind, how can I know a friend like you! It's just bad luck for eight lifetimes. Oh, my God.... Give!"

She touched a golden ticket of one hundred taels from her arms, stuffed it into her best friend, got up and left in a huff.

Boom.

The box door was slammed shut.

Soon the door was opened again.

Wen Lian rushed in angrily and stuffed Lin Xiaoxiao with a golden ticket worth thousands of taels.

"Hurry up, get out, I can't stand you loser!!Even the activity funds are given out in one go, you won't give it slowly month by month??"

She dragged Lin Xiaoxiao to get up and pushed people out of the side door of the restaurant all the way.

The side door of the restaurant was slammed shut, leaving Lin Xiaoxiao and the two guards speechless in the cold wind.

"I don't want to see you again, get out!" Wen Lian shouted loudly through the door.

Lin Xiaoxiao was speechless. Turn around, and you're going to stop a carriage to go home.

"Wait!" The side door behind him slammed open, "It's such a cold day, do you want to freeze to death if you don't wear a robe??!

Wen Lian rushed out with a thick robe and covered Lin Xiaoxiao fiercely.

Then he shivered with the cold, and quickly ran back and closed the door with a bang.

Lin Xiaoxiao and the two guards were speechless again.
