Chapter 2 is finally here

As long as He Lingchuan moved his eyes, he didn't need to make a sound, and a golden silk jujube was delivered to his mouth.

He stretched and sighed, "Comfortable."

Replacing the original body for more than a month, except for the bloody hole when he first woke up, the days in Blackwater City can only be described as comfortable.

Jinzhou is located in the northwesternmost corner of the territory of the Kite Kingdom, and Blackwater City is only ten miles away from the border, which is to guard the country gate for the big kite. It sounds good in name, but this geographical location is destined to not get the loving gaze of the monarch's father, not to mention that it has not fought in recent years.

But the benefits are also high and the emperor is far away.

The He family is the standard soil emperor on his own one-third of an acre, and He Lingchuan, who is the eldest son of Taishou, can get wind and rain in Heishui City and even the entire Qiansong County.

The standard of food, clothing, housing and transportation is just three words:

The best.

The delicacies on the case, the toys in hand, and the daily income are not easy to say about the treasures of all directions, but many mainland tycoons may not be able to enjoy them.

He Lingchuan grew up in such a carefree environment until he was sixteen years old.

How so? He Lingchuan's evaluation of the original body is that he has a bad temper and is a little arrogant by nature.

This guy is usually high-spirited, and likes to set up eagles to drive dogs to hunt, otherwise he would not have encountered a major accident on Hulu Mountain.

Now that the skin has healed, the new owner has no intention of returning to his original hobby.

Over the past few months, He Lingchuan often remembered what happened on the cliff, the leopard demon who attacked him seemed to have been seriously injured before, would the person who injured it chase after Blackwater City? But time passed little by little, and the wind and waves in and outside the city were calm.

Under the surface of a good life, there seems to be an undercurrent surging. This made him, a hard-working boy who was originally only worthy of good fortune, not very steady-minded when enjoying the fragrance of privilege.

He Lingchuan took two sips of warm wine, suddenly felt a little depressed, and motioned to Uncle Hao to open the window.

As soon as the window opened, cool air poured in. The people on the second floor couldn't help but shudder, the papers on the box table next door were rolled downstairs, and two of them were still small silver tickets, which immediately triggered a snatch from the audience.

No one cared about the commotion downstairs, and Liu Baobao tightened her clothes.

He Lingchuan took a deep breath and drove away all the little emotions. Just after the play in the audience was sung, he took the lead in applauding and said happily: "Okay! Reward! After that, he untied the jade on his waist and asked people to take it down and reward him.

With the big brother on the list taking the lead, the atmosphere of the scene was pushed to a high point, and the audience downstairs also donated money.

Outside the window is the main street of Blackwater City, and as soon as the window is opened, the hustle and bustle enters with the wind. He Lingchuan glanced at it and saw that the market was full of traffic, coming and going. The main street, which has been widened three times, can accommodate eight standard horse-drawn carriages side by side, but there is not even a two-foot square gap at this time.

"It's so lively?"

Uncle Hao stood beside He Lingchuan and said, "It's August now, and the merchants should rush to pass as soon as possible before the closure of the Hongya Trade Road, and finish transporting the last batch of goods before winter." ”

This is after the accident in Hulushan, the head of the He family arranged for Aiko to be a close master to prevent him from suffering another accident.

He Lingchuan nodded.

Blackwater City is located on the edge of the Panlong Desert, which looks desolate, but it is the main road connecting the western countries and the big kite inside, because it is a must-see check-in point on the famous Red Cliff Road.

Desert traders have always been dangerous, the weather is changeable, and bandits are frequent, and the Panlong Desert is the best in its class. Countless predecessors used their blood, sweat and lives to find a relatively safe passage through the Panlong Desert, that is, the Red Cliff Trade Road.

However, the center of the Panlong Desert will change its face in September, when even the Red Cliff Trade Road is no longer safe, so experienced merchants must pinch the day to pass early, so that they can still raise the price and make a lot of money in the few months when the Red Cliff Trade Road is closed.

The most lively season, everywhere else is the New Year's Pass, and Blackwater City is now.

The wealthy merchants have come, all industries are very prosperous, the cries of selling along the street have come and gone, and there are no vacant seats in the drinking horse trough of the post station. The taxes collected by Blackwater City in the past two months should be considerable, right?

He Lingchuan came back to his senses when he thought of this, and found that he was actually worrying about his father's work, and he didn't feel funny.

At this moment, someone downstairs asked to see the eldest young master of the He Mansion.

This was sent by a local gang known as the Red and White Road to report the news, and after coming up, he saluted and did not squeak, but just looked left and right.

He Lingchuan waved his hand, and the servant immediately retreated three feet away; Liu Baobao was also very well-behaved, and casually found an excuse to go to other boxes.

Only Uncle Hao stood still.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

This guy was supported by the owner of his own altar, saying that there were just two dusty outsiders who walked into the Zhuzhi Tavern to inquire about something.

In a traffic fortress like Blackwater City, there are as many tourists as there are people crossing the river, so the best place to inquire about the news is, of course, the local restaurant, teahouse and Hongguanfang, and the approach of these two outsiders is not wrong.

But they obviously don't know the special ecology of the local area.

Organizations like the Red and White Road, although they talk about "it's not easy for brothers to make money", actually dominate one of the most lucrative local businesses: alcohol.

The two of them were unlucky, and they happened to walk into the tavern where Changqi, a member of the Red and White Road, happened.

"Tracking down a wounded sand leopard?" Hearing what he said, He Lingchuan only felt that his heart was being pinched fiercely, "Also designated near Blackwater City?" ”

The trouble is finally here.

"Exactly." The congregation looked at him and quickly bowed his head. The green tendons on the corners of the eldest young master's forehead came out, and he looked angry, "Those two have foreign accents, and they sound like Idodong people." Wine sellers say that sand leopards live in the West Mountains, far from here. They don't refute either, they only ask those who have clues to go to them, and whether the target lives or dies, they will be rewarded. ”
