Chapter 4: Old Things
into the house.
It's not too extravagant furnishings, and it can be seen that this is not the orthodox place of the Chamber of Commerce.
Everyone sat down, and the old man looked at Lao Yang, "I can't see that you have such a young deputy." Is this the first time you've traveled with a boat?"
"Hmm,... Oh. You always misunderstood, this is not my deputy, it is Qiu Shao's friend, this time it is because of personal matters. However, Qiu Shao has explained, if necessary. All chambers of commerce are to provide pro bono assistance at the helms. 〞
The old man looked suspicious and looked at Dong Han. However, there are some scrutinizing eyes looking at the winter cold.
"Zhang Lao is good, Qiu Shao is hot-blooded, that is to raise love for boys. 〞
"Well, don't get me wrong, old decay is just a habitual reaction. We should have done what Qiu Shao told us to do. 〞
"Did the Elder hear what happened on Cloister Island two months ago?"
"I heard that, what?"
"It's this little brother who solved it very simply without spending a single soldier. All the top echelons of the Chamber of Commerce are aware. Because they are Qiu Shao's friends, it is inconvenient for them to come forward to express anything, but Qiu Shao's decision is also recognized by everyone. 〞
The old man reacted very excitedly, and immediately stood up, about to salute the winter cold.
Besides, this matter has nothing to do with the old man. Even if it's the same chamber of commerce, it's all in charge.
Dong Han also reacted very quickly, "The old man doesn't have to be like this, the kid just has a little more luck, and he happened to meet a familiar senior, so he was able to solve the matter safely." Nothing. 〞
"Where you are old and lazy, I hope that my little brother will not care. I thank all the elder deacons who are out at the helm. This may seem like an accident, but it's not the first time it has happened. It's just that it doesn't have the same daylight as it does over there. You must know that all the battlements outside are foreign forces to the local natives, so there are some suffocating things. 〞
"The elders work hard, and I think the top management of the Chamber of Commerce also understands everyone's suffering. It's just that the whip can't reach it. 〞
"Little brother, it's good to be clear. Don't be surprised that the old man nags and complains. Take what happened outside the door just now, that is, I look at our chamber of commerce, and it is relatively gentle in dealing with things externally, so I am noisy in front of the door. 〞
"Although it has no adverse effect on the rudder of the Chamber of Commerce, it is still a contempt for the Chamber of Commerce. 〞
"So does Chief Helmsman Wang know about this?" asked Lao Yang at this time.
"Of course I know, but there is no way, because the people of those two gangs are related to the partners of the Chamber of Commerce. 〞
"Well, it's not easy!"
Lao Yang said about Dong Han, because he didn't want these people who split the rudder to take Dong Han seriously. Dong Han naturally knew Lao Yang's thoughts.
In fact, Donghan is a single person, so it doesn't matter whether he pays attention to it or not. But since it's here, if something really happens, even if you don't rush up, you won't shrink back.
"Sit down, and since it's not too much, let it be." As long as it does not delay the business contacts of the Chamber of Commerce, it will be relaxed. 〞
"Alas, little brother Mingjian. He is worthy of being recognized by Qiu Shao!"
Yes, since people complain in front of you. I always have to comfort myself, not to mention that I still heard about Cloister Island. Naturally, that person will think of you as a member of the Chamber of Commerce.
"Oh, Elder, this is a list of the goods this time, please take a look at it and check it. 〞
"Okay, as you get older, you complain a little more, don't blame the two of you. 〞
"Hehe, you're still strong!"
"No, I will give way in a few years, and that Zhang Quan is a nephew of the old man. It's also quite clever and reliable. Alright, this is not going to leave you, go to the helm. Wash up, and I'll pick you up again tonight. 〞
"Then you're busy, so we'll go up first. 〞
"Well, wait. I'll take care of this place and get over it. 〞
When I went out, the people outside had already left, and it was probably discussed in the end.
The two of them went all the way up the mountain to a mountaintop platform that was several miles in size.
This is not the prosperity of the stone houses along the mountain, although there are still many stone houses, but it is obvious that this place is built according to a kind of formation, maybe a hexagram.
The main street extends in all directions from north to south and east to west, and because of the production of jadeite and various minerals, the people here are some well-dressed merchants and warriors with higher cultivation.
At this time, it is almost sunset, so all the restaurants with liquor licenses are full of people.
Dong Han and Lao Yang came to a shop with the sign of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce.
Some of the shops here are like inns, and the decoration is much more luxurious. As soon as you enter, someone came to greet you.
"Deacon Young, you've arrived, and the helmsman was still talking about you. A guy came up to greet Lao Yang.
"Oh, I'm not resistant, isn't this coming?How's it going?Hasn't Tsubaki been normal lately?"
"It's all okay, but a few partners of the Chamber of Commerce come to the helmsman from time to time, as if they are blowing for something. The guy named Tsubaki said.
"Very well, I'll go in to see the helmsman and the two elders. 〞
"Please come in, the helmsman has already commanded it. Just tell you to just go in. 〞
Saying goodbye to that guy, Dong Han followed Lao Yang to the back hall inside, passed through the side door of the council hall, and came to the backyard, where the elders of the chamber of commerce rudder lived. In a large room facing the side door of the council chamber in front of them, the door was not closed, and three people were discussing something. As soon as he saw Lao Yang and Dong Han coming, the square-faced man among them was overjoyed, and a wild voice came out: "Hehe, Xiao Yangzi, you are finally here, you don't know that those old guys have annoyed me to death in the past few days." Something brought no. 〞
"It's a lot according to the code on your manifest, but you can't get it until you get the goods. 〞
"Okay, just prepare according to the goods on the manifest. Who is this little guy yours haven't you seen before?"
Dong Han also saw the other two people in the house, and it was a little strange that there was a woman of about forty, who was seven points similar to the fifth elder. The other one is also an old man, but this old man's cultivation is the highest here. It should be said that it is not the same as the five elders.
Dong Han naturally glanced at the woman who looked like the five elders a few more times. The woman also looked back solemnly at the cold winter.
Lao Yang hurriedly introduced them.
"This is a friend of Qiu Shao, this time he came to do private business just by the way, come brother, he pointed to the man who spoke and said, this is the helmsman of the king, this is Elder Qiu, and this is the wife of the helmsman. 〞
"A few seniors are fine, the kid is polite. 〞
"You are the person Bing'er said in her letter?"
"Yes. Before Dong Han knew what was going on, Lao Yang quickly replied.
"Oh, the boy is really extraordinary. Surprised and introverted, the internal force is pure, solid but not flashy, and the eyes are faint and light. Okay, Bing'er's eyesight is very good!"
"Who are you?"
"He is Qiu Shao's uncle and grandfather. This time, it's the elders who are on duty, so I'm here. Lao Yang said.
"Old man, the boy is ashamed of your old extraordinary. It is Qiu Shao who does not abandon the boy, a wanderer, as a place where close friends come from. It's a kid's pleasure. 〞
"Haha... , brother, you are too good at talking. Lao Yang laughed wildly.
Winter cold is stunned, I'll go! You're all right! I'm just telling the truth. Dong Han looked at Lao Yang with disdain, and Lao Yang didn't care about giving a thumbs up and shaking at Dong Han.
"Yes, I also received a letter from my sister mentioning you. 〞
"Who are you from the Five Elders?"
"She is my sister, and this is my husband's family. Bow down to both of us. 〞
"Ah, ah, that's not going to happen. Isn't that tormenting the boy?"
"What's going on, brother, you seem to be here for the first time?"
Dong Han hurriedly shook his body and dodged it all at once. "That's just an accident, don't take it to heart two seniors. 〞
A few people's eyes lit up again, so fast!
But that's also true. 〞
"It's just a fluke. 〞
"Alright, don't be polite. Tell me what's going on. Lao Yang became an outsider and said this in a hurry.
The woman said about Fajan....
"Oh, my brother doesn't know. Brother, you can really keep it a secret!"
The brother glanced at him, 'Damn', I'm going to tell you who I saved!"
Sometimes this big brother is really a bit big!!
"Haha, good. Since you're not an outsider, sit down and talk. The helmsman hummed.
It is not difficult to see that this person is very straightforward.
"This will ask someone to book a private room, and when Zhang Lao comes back, he will go over. 〞
"Someone... 〞
............
............
In the private room, a few people have already ordered half of the wine and food, "I wonder if the little brother's so-called private matter this time needs our help?"
"Oh, no. That's the little things. 〞
"Otherwise, tomorrow our chamber of commerce will go to an ancient mine with a few other partners, and I don't know what is going on there, in the past two months, there has been an inexplicable spill of highly toxic gases, which has caused serious resistance to exploration and mining. 〞
"Well, the boy likes poisonous things. The kid knows some medical skills, but it's just a few skins, but he has some expertise in poison. 〞
"That's it. 〞
"Good ....... 〞
