Chapter 481: Before the City Gate

Back in northern Xinjiang, Yan Yin didn't want to alarm everyone.

His purpose was just to meet Ye Qingchen and take a look at the current situation in Northern Xinjiang by the way.

Although he was now a Spirit Saint, he didn't know anything about some things as a cultivator, but this did not prevent him from exerting the speed of the flying technique to the extreme.

Riding the wind, it turned into a streamer and went straight to the depths of northern Xinjiang.

It took less than three days for Yan Yin to cross the distance of 10,000 miles in northern Xinjiang.

Once, when he rushed from Tianyuan City to Southern Academy, he traveled thousands of miles a day. Now that his strength has reached the level of a Spirit Saint, he has traveled nearly 10,000 miles a day.

The gap between them can be described as a world of difference.

This is also why, the realm of Spirit Saint and Martial Saint has become a hurdle for many cultivators and martial artists.

A hurdle that everyone has thought about, but it is difficult to overcome.

Fortunately, Yan Yin has passed the hurdle of the Spirit Sage.

His breakthrough is often due to a certain state of mind and some internal factors.

It's just that although he is a spirit saint, if he fights against people as a cultivator. His strength is not as good as that of an ordinary Spirit King, or even some powerful Spirit Sects.

Now he is like a person who obviously has the talent to be a literary champion, but he only wants to be a martial champion wholeheartedly.

It's a pity that sometimes there is a difference between what you think in your heart and reality.

He devoted himself to the path of a martial artist, but he became a spiritual saint. And he is not interested in cultivation, but his martial arts realm still stays in the martial arts sect.

Even though he had eighteen drops of Martial King essence blood in his body, he was still a Martial Sect.

said that Yan Yin went straight to Zhenbei City, and when he came to the place where Zhenbei City was located, Yan Yin almost didn't recognize that this was Zhenbei City.

The city north of Zhenbei was destroyed a lot in the great war due to the rebellion of the alien beasts, and the city walls were full of blood stains and potholes.

But now, the entire Zhenbei City has taken on a new look.

The walls are newly renovated and look clean and clean.

The houses in the city that had been destroyed after the Great Rebellion of the Beasts were also rebuilt, and the neat and clean houses were built one after another.

The neat streets are clean and lively, and there are many more inns and taverns on both sides. Even the brothels and the Red Mansion, Yan Yin has seen a lot.

The center of the town north is the castle lord's mansion, which is now surrounded by wide roads on all sides.

The road connects all parts of the city and then extends to the various city gates, and the people come and go in front of the city gates, and the traffic around the city is very lively.

The avenue leading to the north of the town has been renovated, like a stone dragon paved into the distance.

Looking down from above, the most eye-catching building in the north of the town is the General's Mansion, in addition to the city lord's mansion in the center.

The General's Mansion has not been modified in any way, but the houses around it have been relocated and transformed into a large courtyard surrounding the City Lord's Mansion.

There were very few people at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, only one or two pairs of guards guarding the City Lord's Mansion.

After investigating, Yan Yin found that there was no Ye Qingchen's breath in the city. The most powerful in the city are several martial kings.

It's not that there are no cultivators, but they are not too powerful.

Just when Yan Yin was thinking, he saw a fierce quarrel at a city gate in the north of the town.

The two caravans wanted to enter the city, but because there were too many convoys and men for the two teams, the guard officer at the gate suggested that one of the teams go to the other gate.

But relatively don't want to take their own people to other doors, and merchants are the most reluctant to bow their heads in front of merchants.

The so-called harmony makes money, that is just some people's talk.

Businessmen, who can really make money peacefully.

As a result, both teams didn't want to get out of the way, both wanted to enter the city, and they didn't want to go back.

In this way, both sides naturally became a little angry, so there was a conflict.

When a contradiction comes, it often means that anger is coming.

"Don't think that you are the Su family's business group, we have to let you! This way to the north, your Su family and our Qingqing family are working against each other everywhere, don't you just bully our boss is a woman?" A man said angrily, "Everyone is here to make a fortune in northern Xinjiang, although there is a young lady behind you, but you can't bully others!"

"That's it," some people around also said, "Although the Su family used to be the first merchant group of the empire, this is the northern frontier, and the Su family is not the Su family before." Everyone is in business, and it is impossible to talk about who is afraid of whom. ”

"That's it, the young lady is good, we all know it. But you can't rely on the relationship of young ladies to sit in the position of the first merchant group in Northern Xinjiang. A woman said in a cold voice, "Moreover, the people I am most unaccustomed to in my life are those who bully us as women! What's wrong with women, women can still do business, and they can still lead people to make a fortune." I know Boss Liu of this Qingqing family, and he is a very good girl. She's kind and reluctant to come forward, but we don't want to. ”

"That's right, that's right," and ** said, "Let you Su family leaders come and talk to us, Old Man Su respects us and approves of it." But if it's just a junior of the Su family who wants to bully and act recklessly in Northern Xinjiang in his later years, then it would be too much to underestimate these big families in Northern Xinjiang. ”

Listening to the conversation below, Yan Yin took a closer look and saw two car dragons in front of the city gate.

The flag on one team is played with the word Su, and the flag played by the other team's Che Long is in blue characters.

There are more people in the Su family, and there are at least thousands of guards at a glance. And the people in the Qingqing House are a little small, but only a few hundred.

It seems that the Su family is more powerful, but there are many people standing on the side of the Qingqing family.

Yan Yin saw the banners of many Northern Xinjiang families and their caravans.

Just when Yan Yin pondered whether to come forward, a person quietly appeared at the city gate.

"General, why are you here?" The guard at the city gate saw the person coming, and hurriedly bowed and saluted, "A little thing happened here, I didn't expect the alarmed general." ”

He nodded, he was a little elegant and emaciated, and his appearance had not changed in the slightest in the past two years.

Giving orders or giving orders, or the one who gives orders and receives orders.

Glancing at the men and horses on both sides, he ordered to look at the guards and said, "Tell me, what's going on?"

The guard briefly explained the matter, and finally said, "Both teams are very famous merchants in Northern Xinjiang today, the Su family will not talk about it, the Qingqing family heard that it is a mysterious woman who is the boss and has a lot of funds." ”

Nodding, he ordered to look at the people who were gradually quieting down and looking at him, and then looked at the Su family's caravan, and said lightly, "Su Jinghong, are you dead, if you don't die, you will come out to meet your old friends." ”

The staggering way of speaking, the head of the dignified Su family, the former finance minister of the Fengyun Empire, was ordered to shout like this.

Just when everyone was amazed, I saw an old man walking down from one or two carriages with the support of a middle-aged man.

"He is Su Jinghong, the head of the Su family?"

"Why is he so old, it seems that he is not even a hundred years old. ”

"I'm afraid you don't know this, this Su Jinghong is not a cultivator, nor is he a martial artist. He is a down-to-earth ordinary person. ”

"It is really not ordinary for an ordinary person to lead the Su family to leave the Fengyun Empire and abandon the position of the former Imperial Minister of Finance. ”

Some onlookers watched Su Jinghong come out and began to discuss.

Su Jinghong stepped forward with a smile, looked at the mandate, and arched his hand, "Jinghong has seen the eldest brother who has given the mandate, but I can't imagine that I haven't seen him for decades, and the eldest brother is still in style." ”

"Hmm......" glanced at Su Jinghong carefully, and frowned, "You are Su Jinghong, the kid who used to follow the general's ass, why are you so old?"

Smiling, Su Jinghong didn't mind calling him a kid, and said slowly, "I'm not better than you, I'm just an ordinary person, I won't live for a hundred years and turn into a handful of loess." It's the eldest brother who has been appointed for many years, but is it okay?"

Nodding, he ordered, "I'm fine, but some people are not good." ”

He glanced at the carriage that Su Jinghong came out of, then looked at Su Jinghong, and said lightly, "Let's talk about these words when we enter the city." ”

Nodding, Su Jinghong said, "It's okay, Jinghong also has a lot of words and a lot of questions to say to the eldest brother." After all, there are more people in our Su family, so it is inevitable that they will be waiting outside the city all the time. ”

As he spoke, Su Jinghong sighed, "Alas...... Although I am now the head of the Su family, the affairs of this caravan are entrusted to my nephew Xipo to manage. He was young and young, and some things were not so sophisticated, which made it difficult for the guard. ”

Signaling to the middle-aged man beside him, the man took out some silver taels from his arms, handed them to the guard officer, and said, "Xipo is a little arrogant, so you are embarrassed, brother." ”

The guard waved his hand and did not pick up the middle-aged man's silver taels.

Glancing at the order, he said solemnly, "This is my duty, and it is also what I should do." I can't talk about being embarrassed, but as the guard officer of the city gate here, I naturally have to try to fulfill my duty. ”

"Great righteousness!" said Su Xipo, nodding, "Your Excellency has shown us the new style of Zhenbei City. ”

As he spoke, he handed the silver taels to the guards and said, "Please don't misunderstand the guards, this money is for you and your men to eat and drink." ”

The guard looked at the order, only to see the order and said lightly, "Since it is the rich man of the Su family who has invited guests, it doesn't hurt for you to accept it." ”

"You can't take this silver tael!" a sudden female voice sounded into everyone's ears.

I saw a female voice coming from another carriage in the other fleet: "I heard that Mo Wuru, the city lord of Zhenbei City, is a serious person, and under his management, Zhenbei City has become the center of Northern Xinjiang, and many earth-shaking changes have taken place in the entire Northern Xinjiang." Moreover, he ordered that no city in the northern frontier should be allowed to collect city fees. If the people of the Su family gave the guard brother a silver tael and he accepted it, then can this money be regarded as an alternative city fee. Those who give money can pass first, and those who don't give money need to let go. ”

"Miss Liu, you are wrong about this," Su Xipo said coldly, "I just paid you to drink, if you want to give it, we will not care about you." The general was only in good contact with his uncle, and he didn't say that he wanted us to go first. ”

"The girl is the boss of this caravan?" he ordered to look at the carriage and said lightly, "Zhenbei City welcomes anyone who comes to the business, and besides, I have never said that I will let the Su family's convoy enter the city first. What you said is not unreasonable, this money really cannot be collected. However, it is indeed inappropriate to let the Su family, a large caravan from afar, wait here. If the girl doesn't mind, she can wait for the Su family to enter before entering. If we continue to confront each other here, it will only be a waste of time. ”

"Since the iron-faced selfless commander has said so, the little woman has no choice but to agree" The woman in the carriage sighed lightly and said, "Everyone, let's get out of the way!"

Su Xipo sneered, then looked at the Su family's team, and shouted, "Brothers, prepare to enter the city!"

"Slow!" A cold drink came from the Qingqing House team, and I saw a man striding forward, looking at the order, and said in a deep voice, "Is the Su family important or the northern Xinjiang important." ”

The man is very strong and burly.

Looking at this man, he was silent.
