"Mr. Qi, I don't understand what you're saying!" As soon as Qi Shan's words came out, Ji Yuan couldn't help but ask: "The Qi Family Chamber of Commerce has always been a big family, I want to escort some treasures to the Spirit Mirror Valley......, this kind of thing is nothing, right? Ji Yuan didn't continue to say this, but lowered his head and smiled slightly, but the meaning was already self-evident. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Alas!" Qi Shan couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, and then explained, "It's not a secret, although my Qi Family Chamber of Commerce has a solid family business and looks infinitely beautiful, but in the final analysis, after all, it is just a group of businessmen who buy from east to west, and this method is really not worth it compared to the real martial arts sect." If it is placed on weekdays, my Qi Family Chamber of Commerce can still rely on a little bit of false name to ask for some thin noodles in front of the major sects, and the business that comes and goes can be regarded as calm, whether it is an official road or a bandit road, walking outside, it will more or less give us some face for the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce, and the well water between each other does not violate the river water. But now is different from the past, the treasures prepared by the Chamber of Commerce for the Five Domains Spirit Banquet are enough to arouse the eyes of the world, especially some rare exercises and soul methods and divine weapons, which can be regarded as a treasure for some martial artists, and many times getting a high-grade exercise can even change the fate of a person or even a sect. It's a shame to say, in fact, on the eve of each session of the Five Domains Spirit Banquet, our Qi Family Chamber of Commerce will be watched by many unscrupulous people on the way to escort treasures from all over the Five Regions to the banquet, and sometimes they will even be robbed and stolen by people to take away a lot of treasures, and the guards of our Chamber of Commerce have also suffered serious casualties, but because these things are related to the reputation of our Qi Family Chamber of Commerce, they have never been publicized!"

"Since you are working for the Five Domains Spirit Banquet, and the people who are qualified to participate in the Five Domains Spirit Banquet are all famous and prestigious sects, then why don't you seek their help? After all, the theft of treasures by others is also a direct loss to them!" Lu Yifan asked puzzled.

"The Five Domains Alliance has set a rule, all sects participating in the Spirit Banquet are not allowed to have any personal relationship with the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce, lest the Chamber of Commerce not be able to send all the treasures to the Spirit Banquet because of the difference between distant and close relatives!" Qi Shan said helplessly, "So even if we have the heart to ask these sects to help, I'm afraid that they won't dare to have an affair with us rashly!"

"There is still such a thing in the world, isn't the Five Domains Alliance afraid that your treasures will be snatched away halfway?" Liu Sandao laughed playfully, "It seems that this Five Domains Alliance is really at ease with your Qi Family Chamber of Commerce!"

"Some things are also dumb for us, and we can't say anything about it, after all, if the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce can't even do this little thing, I'm afraid we won't be able to gain a foothold in the Five Domains

Qi Shan explained with a wry smile, "Therefore, every time we spend a lot of money on the eve of the spiritual feast, we will search for masters from all over the world, the purpose is to be able to escort these treasures!"

"Forgive me for taking the liberty of it, since the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce is doing business in the Five Domains, the organization within the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce should be very strict and huge, I don't know what Mr. Qi's identity ......in the Chamber of Commerce is" Lu Yifan wanted to speak and stopped, but there was already a strong curiosity between his eyebrows.

"Don't hide it from Sect Master Lu, Qi Shan is just a small principal in the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce! Mainly responsible for taking care of all kinds of business in the Holy Domain!" Qi Shan replied bluntly, "The Qi Family Chamber of Commerce also has four positions under the president: elder, supervisor, director, and taifu, which are respectively in charge of the four major affairs of the Chamber of Commerce's internal affairs, martial arts, finance and silver, and commerce, and under the four positions, there are also five courts, namely the West Immortal Academy, the East Demon Courtyard, the Southern Spirit Courtyard, the Northern Beast Academy, and the Middle Saint Academy, and the five courtyards are in charge of the business and miscellaneous affairs of the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce in various places in the five domains. And each courtyard is divided into four positions: secretary, taibao, bookkeeper, and director, who are in charge of the internal affairs, martial arts, finance, and commerce of their own academy! And Qi is the chief in charge of commerce in this Zhongsheng Academy! Therefore, his status in the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce is really not worth it!"

Although Qi Shan's words were quite relaxed, they made Lu Yifan and the others speechless for a while, they never thought that the internal organization of the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce, which was only doing business, would be comparable to that of the court, and the people inside would have such a strict and meticulous division of labor.

"Dare to ask how many people are under the command of the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce?" Ji Yuan asked in surprise.

"If you even count the guys in every shop, there are at least millions of people!" Qi Shanfeng said lightly, "I don't know anything else, but there are more than 2.7 million people registered under the jurisdiction of the Middle Holy Academy! Of course, the Holy Land is vast and crowded, so the people in the Middle Holy Court of Commerce are naturally the largest!"

"Oh my God!" heard this, and everyone in the temple exclaimed. Lu Yifan shook his head again and again and sighed, "If this is calculated, Lan Shixun's entangled army of more than 200,000 troops to rebel is nothing at all, and the force that really makes the Emperor in the Holy Domain fearsome should be your Qi Family Chamber of Commerce! There are nearly three million people in the Middle Holy Courtyard alone, wouldn't it be easy for you to make some noise in the Holy Domain?"

"Sect Master Lu laughed!" Qi Shan waved his hand again and again and refused politely, "The Chamber of Commerce is just some businessmen and honest people who do their duty. There is neither Wen Tao nor Wu Strategy, there are hundreds of millions of such mediocre and ordinary people, what can we count as a little person?"

"Mr. Qi is actually in charge of more than two million people, if such an identity can only be regarded as worthless in the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce, then wouldn't we be like ants?

"The more people there are, the more troubles!" Qi Shan replied, "In ten years, with the ability of the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce, countless heavenly and earthly treasures have already been collected in the Holy Domain, but this matter is not a secret in the Chamber of Commerce, so there are many people who know about it. And the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce is mixed, and it is inevitable that there will be speculative people who resell the news, they may have already leaked out the news that the Chamber of Commerce has prepared a large number of treasures to be sent to Lingjing Valley, and now I don't know how many unscrupulous people are waiting to rob us halfway along the way. Alas, every time we go to the eve of the feast, it is the most headache for our Holy Temple!"

"Why do you have the most headaches? What about the other four courtyards?

According to the rules of the Chamber of Commerce, the five courts are in charge of the affairs of the five domains, and they can neither fornicate nor trespass with each other, not only can they not compete for territory in business, but they cannot even use them across domains in the hands of people, so to put it bluntly, each court can only recruit personnel from their respective areas of responsibility, even the guards! Our Middle Sacred Courtyard can only recruit guards in the Holy Domain, and the Holy Domain is the weakest side among the five domains, and the top masters among them are even more difficult to find. However, most of the unscrupulous people who intercepted us halfway were foreign powerhouses, and their cultivation and methods were generally stronger than the guards we recruited from the Holy Domain, so they ......"

"Therefore, when transporting treasures before each spiritual feast, your Holy Courtyard is the one that encounters the most enemies and suffers the heaviest losses

Before Qi Shan finished speaking, Yulou had already preemptively said the following words.

As soon as Yulou spoke, Qi Shan nodded lightly with an embarrassed face. Seeing this scene, Lu Yifan and the others couldn't help but show a look of surprise.

"It's okay to do it once or twice, but it's like this every time, and it will be difficult for our Zhongsheng Yuan to explain in front of the president after all! Therefore, we have tried every way we can think of in the past few sessions, and we have continuously recruited masters from all over the world, but we have never been able to change this bad luck!" Qi Shan said in a low voice with a bitter face, " The so-called good people are bullied, persimmons are still soft pinched, our Zhongsheng Yuan is weak is already a well-known thing, so every ten years on the eve of the spiritual feast, our transport team has naturally become the target of the public, along the way there are many disasters, even our Zhongsheng Yuan in charge of martial arts Taibao was also killed in the middle of the last escort treasure, so that until today the position of our Zhongsheng Yuan Taibao has been vacant, in every possible way, I, the main person in charge of business, had to stand up and concurrently serve as Taibao, personally responsible for this escort！”

"Even if you are looking for a master in the Holy Domain to escort you, then you should also find the strongest, how can you ......" Ji Yuan's words were only halfway through and suddenly said urgently, "I understand, the strongest in the Holy Domain is none other than Xuanzong, but Xuanzong can't have any collusion with you because he wants to participate in the spiritual banquet, so you just retreat and come to us, right?"

Pierced by Ji Yuan's words, Qi Shan's face once again showed a trace of embarrassment, and he whispered in a low voice: "Actually, the reason why I chose to ask Sect Master Lu for help is not simply because of your strength, but more importantly, Qi has dealt with Sect Master Lu several times, and knows that Sect Master Lu will never steal from himself, and he is meticulous and reliable, so he is really the best person to escort such a batch of valuable treasures!"

"But how do you know that I will definitely help you?" Lu Yifan didn't seem to be moved by Qi Shan's praise, he still had that untempered expression, so that Qi Shan couldn't see his joy and anger at all, "Just now, Mr. Qi, you yourself said that this trip is full of dangers, and even your Taibao was killed, which is enough to show that this trip is a dangerous move to kill a lifetime, why should I risk the lives of the brothers of the Soul Sect to help you? In my opinion, the friendship between us is not so deep, right?"

"I naturally understand what Sect Master Lu means, since Qi Mou dares to stand here and come prepared, so I will never let you run away in vain this trip!" Qi Shan swore aloud, "Qi Mou has prepared three generous gifts in order to implore Sect Master Lu to go out of the mountain to help, and I hope that Sect Master Lu will accept it with a smile!"

"Generous gifts?" As soon as he heard that he had received Liu Sandao politely, he suddenly became interested, and asked with a wicked smile, "What kind of gifts? Is it money or women?"

"Ahem, how can earthly things enter the eyes of Sect Master Lu? The first generous gift I prepared for Sect Master Lu is the Taibao token of the Zhongsheng Courtyard of the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce!" Qi Shan said and escaped from his sleeve a token made of pure gold, on which the dragon and phoenix were entangled lifelike, and the back was inscribed with four small jade-inlaid characters of 'Qi Family Chamber of Commerce', and on the front were engraved three small characters 'Zhongsheng Yuan' and two big characters 'Taibao'! Looking at the token in his hand, Qi Shan couldn't help but show a smug smile on his face, and then explained aloud, " Sect Master Lu must not misunderstand, this token is not to let Sect Master Lu condescend to the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce as an errand, but only to give Sect Master Lu the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce all the power of the Taibao, with this token Sect Master Lu is in the Holy Domain and even in the Five Domains, as long as there is a place for my Qi Family Chamber of Commerce to do business, you can get all the help you want at any time! Of course, this token also means that Sect Master Lu can get the dividends given by the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce in the Holy Courtyard every year, Sect Master Lu must not underestimate this annual profit, with the business scale of the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce in the Holy Domain, the dividends shared by the Taibao can buy a Western Imperial City to say the least!"

"It sounds tempting to have no work and get money!" Liu Sandao laughed playfully.

"Hehe, Qi's ability is limited, and being able to take out the Taibao token is already breaking the rules, and I hope that Sect Master Lu will not be surprised

Qi Shan said and didn't forget to bow to Lu Yifan, "And this second generous gift is related to Sect Master Lu's deep hatred!"

"Oh?" Lu Yifan became interested as soon as he heard this, "What do you mean by this? Could it be that you still want to help me deal with Xuanzong?"

"That's good!" No one expected Qi Shan to agree so happily, "As long as Sect Master Lu escorts this batch of treasures to the Lingjing Valley safely, after returning, the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce is willing to raise the strength of the whole court to wish you to deal with Xuanzong!

"No matter how rich you are, you can't help Yan Zheng succeed in rebellion!" Xie Yun struck unceremoniously, "I didn't mean to embarrass you, I just want to tell you that money is not everything!"

"Xuanzong is not an imperial court, and Sect Master Lu is not the King of the Holy West, of course many things cannot be compared!" Qi Shan explained in his words, "I know that the Soul Sect is not short of gold and silver treasures, but what my Qi Family Chamber of Commerce has is far more than just gold and silver, our relationship in the Holy Domain is so complicated that you can't imagine, to put it mildly, as long as I think about it, I can find out what the Eastern Sect Master ate last night!

Hearing Qi Shan's eloquent conversation, Lu Yifan couldn't help but glance at the jade building on the side, and there was a thick contemplation in his eyes.

"Although your conditions are very good, but this matter is related to our life and death after all, if even our lives are gone, even if there are more benefits and conditions, what is the use?" Yulou said slowly, "Mr. Qi said that it is just borrowing flowers to offer Buddha, and taking the capital of the Qi Family Chamber of Commerce to allow us some small profits! After that, Yulou actually stretched out his hand and made a gesture of invitation at Qi Shan, and with his words, the eyes of everyone in the hall also converged on Qi Shan's body again, as if they were waiting for his reaction.

In front of everyone's eyes, a touch of solemnity finally appeared on Qi Shan's originally smiling face, and then he took a deep breath, and then hesitated again and again before he spit out two words from his mouth word by word: "Qualification!"

"What?" Lu Yifan didn't seem to hear Qi Shan's words clearly, "Mr. Qi's qualifications are ...... What does that mean exactly?"

"It's no secret, this is a condition that the Elder made an exception to give our Central Saint Academy to the Five Domains Alliance, and it is also the first 'special treatment' ......for the Five Domains Spirit Banquet in hundreds of years."

When Qi Shan said this, everyone in the hall frowned, and Yulou walked directly in front of Qi Shan, looked at Qi Shan with a solemn gaze, and asked faintly: "What you said is the truth?"

"If there is half a lie, Qi will not die well!" Qi Shan fought for the reputation of the Zhongsheng Academy this time, and such a vicious oath was issued, "It's just that the spirit banquet is held before this matter must not be revealed to any outsiders, after all, there is a violation of the rules, if it is leaked, you will definitely invite a big trouble!"

"This ...... This is really wonderful!" Yulou couldn't help but show ecstasy after getting the confirmation, and then he turned around abruptly and walked straight to Lu Yifan, grabbed Lu Yifan's arms excitedly, and cheered again and again, "Yifan, this time this is a blessing from heaven, and the real rise of the Soul Sect is just around the corner!"

"Yulou, what are you talking about? What is the special qualification that Mr. Qi is talking about?" Lu Yifan, who was confused, asked suspiciously while stabilizing Yulou's mood.

"The qualification he just mentioned is the qualification that can make the Soul Sect rank among the hundred major sects of the Five Domains, and make an exception to participate in the Five Domains Spirit Banquet on the first day of the first month of next year!"

"Wow!" Yulou's words caused an uproar in the audience!

......
