In the middle of the morning, the sun is already slightly warm, but there is a little bit of coldness at the beginning of the morning, and the street market in Huacang City is already noisy and extraordinary.

Located in the prosperous place of Huacang City, the Chunyang Residence on the shore of Cuiming Lake, which gathers the dishes of the Tiansheng Empire on land and water, is a well-known and elegant place in the south of the city, and it is inevitable that there will be a little hustle and bustle.

However, the celestial Accord next to the lake, the Rising Moon Pavilion, is silent today. But it was not uninhabited here, on the contrary, the Rising Moon Pavilion was full today, but except for a few breaths, there was almost no sound here.

The people in the cabinet are sitting and standing, old and strong, some with faces like clouds, and some with closed eyes to recuperate. Although the weather is getting warmer, after all, in the autumn morning, it is still a little cold, and those teacups that have just been filled are not long after, and there is no white smoke, but no one who is sitting has the leisure to hurry to taste tea.

Seeing that the atmosphere was like this, the two waitresses in Chunyangju didn't dare to make a sound, adding tea or leaving, so they had to stay in place.

After a long time, a younger waitress couldn't hold back, and wanted to ask, but was stopped by a look from the older waitress. She has been in the industry for many years, and she knows that the leaders here are the leaders of the jewelry industry in Huacang City, the shopkeeper of Songhe Zhai, the master of Yunxianghao, and the elder of Xuanxiangshe...... All of them are big people who are trembling when they stomp their feet, and the atmosphere is like this, which is obviously not something they can disturb.

In the first seat here, two guards, an elegant young man dressed in a white coat, sitting cross-legged, with a leisurely face, was feeding the carp outside the pen, as if the atmosphere here had nothing to do with it. But no one dared to disturb his Yaxing.

This person is the number one jeweler in Huacang City, the pearl firm, and the young owner of Menghai's relict residence - Zheng Chongyue. This person has five out of twenty, and his strength is in the early stage of the Jidu Realm, and his talent is also good, but he can be the first here, in addition to the residence of his representative Menghai, more importantly, he has the capital to support his arrogance - the grandfather who protects his short. Therefore, there is no objection to this junior being the first seat.

There was silence for a long time, and a man in his forties, the head of the Yunxiang, finally couldn't hold it anymore and asked, "After waiting for a long time, that kid won't run away, right?" ”

"Brother Zhou Xian, don't worry, I've been waiting for a long time, and it's not too late." An old man replied.

"Shopkeeper Yang, Concubine Rong is presumptuous, are you sure he is talking about today." A beautiful woman said.

"The time is absolutely right, but whether he will come as promised, I ......," one man said.

"If he dares to tease us and others, we Baiyuji will never let him go."

"That's it!"

The crowd was gossiping.

"Hehe, everyone Mo Jiao, even if he is playing me, he definitely doesn't dare to play Young Master Zheng, right?" The old man from before flattered.

"Yes, yes, who would dare to make fun of Young Master Zheng? Unless it's too long. ”

The crowd chimed in.

When Zheng Zhongyue heard this, he was also a little happy, and threw all the fish food away. He said, "Rest assured, if that guy dares to flee, he will be left dead." ”

Everyone was just about to flatter them, and suddenly a loud laugh came: "Hahaha, I don't know what Zhao's crime is?" actually made Young Master Zheng want to be so ruthless? ”

Hearing this, everyone looked out the door in unison.

Under the gaze of the crowd, a man in his thirties paced in, followed by a man covered in a black robe, whose face could not be seen clearly.

"Zhao Gudong! You've finally shown up! The old man said slightly angrily.

"Hehe, Elder Han is unharmed. There have been a lot of things recently, and I haven't visited Xuanxiang House, so don't blame me. ”

"Humph! You haven't been seen for a long time, and the concubine is only when you ran away. The beautiful woman said.

"Hehe, Mrs. Zhang laughed."

"Less nonsense! Pay it back! The shopkeeper of the Yunxiang, slapping the table and shouting.

"That's right! No one is here to talk to you today, Shopkeeper Zhao, since you have appeared, then please close my Songhezhai accounts! Shopkeeper Yang seemed to be calm, and then his eyes narrowed, and the four entourages tensed their muscles when they landed, as if threatening.

Seeing this, the entourage of the bosses all stared at Zhao Gudong and the others, as if they were about to make a move if they didn't pay back the money.

Seeing this, Zhao Gudong was a little scared, but he still shook the paper fan lightly, looking extremely calm.

"Six Nine Yao Realms, twenty Jidu Realms." The black-robed man whispered behind him.

Hearing this, Zhao Gudong was even more frightened, and he was only in the late stage of the capital realm, if these people really wanted to do it, he was only afraid of being more auspicious, but the surface was still light and light.

"If we can't talk about it later, I can promise to escort you away, but ...... To add money. The black-robed man said.

"How much?"

"Double."

"How's it going, Zhao Gudong? Give money, right? Just as the two were talking, Yang shopkeeper said.

Seeing this, the two waitresses present hurriedly retreated, for fear of being involved. Zhao Gudong lightly closed the paper fan and said without a trace: "Triple it, come according to the original plan, if it doesn't work, take me away." Immediately, Zhao Gudong sat down slowly under the eyes of everyone, drank tea, and said, "Pay back?" No problem, but not now. ”

Just like that, the atmosphere froze instantly.

This matter starts with Zhao Gudong. To say that this person is a strange word. This person is not from Esong County, but he first came here fifteen years ago, and with his skillful hands, he made a living in the jewelry business. In a circle, he did a lot of treasure appreciation, carving, and sales, learned enough skills, and became famous. With its craftsmanship and hard-working temperament, he actually saved the first pot of gold and opened his own store - Linlang Ji, from specializing in jewelry processing, gradually expanding to calligraphy and painting, antiques, with its operation, growing rapidly.

However, the powerful time-honored brands in Huacang City did not want to be divided into the market by it, and joined forces to suppress it, which once made Linlangji on the verge of bankruptcy. After all, the jewelry industry is a huge profit industry, because of its particularity, it can be said that it is designed for the service of dignitaries, far from being comparable to other industries, after all, only the rich and noble can afford it, even if there is a change in the market, these dignitaries will not be bad money, the most stable. How can others be allowed to share?

At this time, Zhao Gudong staged a good show of resurrection, in a word - extremely bold.

The former lord of Huacang City, since he came to Huacang, his wife has been depressed all day long, and she is getting thinner and thinner, which makes her completely overwhelmed. Even if the city lord took care of him in every way, he didn't see his wife happy, and he was really anxious about the city lord.

At this moment, Zhao Gudong knelt down in front of the mansion and said that he could relieve his wife's worries. The city lord offered delicious food, opera games and was not impressive, and he couldn't ask a famous doctor, so he agreed to Zhao Gudong with the idea of trying.

I saw Zhao Gu Dongjin offering a thing, inherited in a wooden box, which was a jade carving the size of a plate! This jade carving is made of white jade, engraved with the famous coastal county of the empire, the famous bay of Qiantang County - Dongjiang Bay. Engraved tide reef beach, black canopy sampan, willow bank apricot blossom, rhombus lotus baby...... In the meantime, the terroir is fully revealed, especially the characters, not focusing on prosperity and luxury, but showing the world's various states and working back and forth, which really caused Mrs. to smile.

Subsequently, Zhao Gudong presented another dish, this dish is made of carp and pork, which seems to be a pile of white flowers, but it can eat the taste of the famous fish of Qiantang County, which makes his wife even more happy.

It turned out that the wife of the city lord was a native of Qiantang County, because the city lord was an official, and he had not returned to his hometown for several years. Now Zhao Gudong has an ingenious mind, and he has only been able to relieve his homesickness, so the former city lord and his wife are very fond of him.

With the care of the city lord and his wife, Zhao Gudong not only came back to life, but also grew rapidly, until he became one of the leaders in the jewelry industry. Although it is still a little worse than the time-honored brand in front of it, it is not far behind.

With the transfer of the former city lord, Zhao Gudong was silent for a while, but just when everyone thought that his career was over, he suddenly did something that stirred up the jewelry industry. That's - to open up the crystal industry!

You know, peers are enemies. Zhao Gudong's Linlang Ji covers many industries, which is to offend everyone. But it is also better because it has a wide range of involvement, so although it competes with various industries, it is not too fierce. Therefore, it is also considered to be in harmony with other fonts.

The various industry leaders in the jewelry industry are also basically stable, such as pearls are basically returned to the dream of the sea of relics, calligraphy and painting are mainly based on Xuanxiangshe, so on the whole, the dragon heads will not be dead or alive. Based on this, Zhao Gudong put forward a bold idea: to develop the crystal industry.

Since Esong County does not produce crystals, and the crystal production areas in the northern part of the empire are too far away, it is inevitable that a small amount of business will be profitable. So Zhao Gudong proposed that he should be responsible for the crystal industry, carry out unified procurement, and then resell them. The processing and sales carried out by various businesses are no longer involved, which has aroused the interest of various companies and placed orders one after another. But there were unforeseen circumstances, and Zhao Gudong staked almost all of his net worth of crystals, and all of them were robbed during transportation, which triggered the above scene.

"Hehe, I can't think of it, I can't think of it. To this day, Boss Zhao still does not see the slightest panic, let the wind and rain blow, the clouds are light and the wind is light, and there is still leisure and elegance - pastime and so on. It's a masterpiece of the British school. Shopkeeper Zhou was furious.

"Hahahaha, good! Good! Good ——! Shopkeeper Yang gave a thumbs up and laughed angrily.

Seeing this, a follower wanted to do it. At this moment, Zhao Gudong lightly slipped the teacup and said: "Today is Zhao's invitation, and there is no intention to entertain everyone, anyway, Zhao has come here, and he is not in a hurry, why not listen to Zhao's gossip." ”

"No need, Zhao Gudong, either pay back the money today, or die!" Said solemnly. This Zhao Gudong is the most eloquent, and it is not difficult to reverse black and white with a clever mouth, otherwise it will be difficult to move everyone to cooperate. Anyway, Zheng Chongyue has already made up his mind, no matter how clever Zhao Gudong is, he will never give up if he doesn't see cash today.

"Then there's no need to talk about it?" Zhao Gudong said with a smile.

Zheng Chongyue stopped talking nonsense, and the two Jiuyao Realm guards beside him were tense, and when they just gave an order, they would move to capture Zhao Gudong.

"Do it!"

With a sudden sound, I saw a black shadow sweeping, and everyone was shocked, because it was not Zheng Chongyue who gave the order, but Zhao Gudong!

Zheng Chongyue's two entourages never thought that Zhao Gudong would dare to strike first, and before the two of them could react, they were easily knocked down by the black-robed man and lost consciousness.

"Zhao Gudong!" Shopkeeper Zhou shouted.

The guards of everyone around were all in front of the owner, and the atmosphere was suddenly tense.

"You, you...... What are you doing? Zheng Chongyue didn't expect that they were attacking Zhao Gudong, but Zhao Gudong dared to do it first?

"My grandfather...... But the powerhouse of the Eight Extremes Realm, you dare to touch me...... Don't even think about leaving Huacang City alive! "Solemn and pleasant, and the color is very inward.

"Everyone, don't panic. Come. ”

Under Zhao Gudong's orders,

With Zhao Gudong's command, outside the pavilion, a group of eight big men carried into the house several wooden boxes, repeated several times, and the house was filled with more than 200 silver boxes.

"Everyone, please see, there are four million taels of silver here, or two hundred and fifty thousand catties, all of which are official ingots." Zhao Gudong opened a few silver boxes, the white light was shining, and they were all full of ingots.

Zhao Gudong opened the wooden box layer by layer, showing that the whole box was full of silver. And said: "If any of you have doubts, you can check them one by one." ”

After everyone finished inspecting, Zhao Gudong took out a stack of silver tickets and said: "This is from Huacangcheng ticket number Yongshengchang, a total of four million taels, please also check it." ”

After everyone finished the inspection, Zhao Gu Dongcai said: "Hehe, don't blame Young Master Zheng, Zhao has no disrespect for Young Master Zheng, it's just that your two entourages are too ignorant, and we want to arrest Zhao before we can finish the discussion, and Zhao will also discipline one or two for you." ”

"Yes, yes, Brother Zhao said yes." Zheng Chongyue was taken aback, and secondly, he also saw the cash, and the salutation was suddenly much more polite.

"No wonder Zhao Gudong is so calm today, it turns out that he has the confidence to repay his debts." Everyone whispered.

"Hehe, everyone has also seen that Zhao owes a total of 7.93 million taels of silver to each family, and a total of 8 million taels is here today, presumably everyone will no longer doubt Zhao's ability to repay." Zhao Gudong paused, and said: "Zhao knows that there have been rumors of Zhao's bankruptcy recently, which is obviously someone deliberately provoking our relationship. Today, Zhao just wants to make a statement, although Zhao has encountered some situations, he will never lose all his money. ”

"Haha, that's it, Zhao Xian's brother Ji has his own natural appearance, how can it be a trivial thing?"

"That's it, I just said that there is no need to doubt Boss Zhao's credibility, you see, what he said is true."

......

"Hehe, since you are all here today, Zhao will talk about it. Today, Zhao is just to let everyone see, does Zhao have any money? All the money I owe to each family, today you can discuss with Zhao in person, and Zhao will return it on the spot. Hehe, but, when Zhao was in danger, he didn't forget your accounts, but some people were ...... to Zhao Hehe, in short, you can be trusted, you will return today, if you want to take away the money safely, you can also, just cooperate in the future...... However, Zhao also wants to remind that there are only Zhao, outside Huacang City, who are interested in opening up all joints and being able to operate crystal procurement. ”

Hearing this, everyone was also a little uneasy, they understood that what Zhao Gudong said was them, if the accounts were settled today, then Zhao Gudong would no longer cooperate with his own family, but Zhao Gudong would not worry about buyers, so he would lose the crystal business in vain. After thinking for a while, everyone expressed their trust in Zhao Gudong, and after a confession, it was extremely harmonious, how could there be any previous face?

In the meantime, Zhao Gudong changed his previous indifference and went to the pawnshop under the name of Hua Canghao Qiangliu's family-Sheng Deqing.

After returning the four million taels and settling the profits, Zhao Gudong finally got back the pawned assets, the shops No. 7 to 14 under the Jade Corridor Bridge in the prosperous area of Huacang City, and the pawned jewelry and antiques.

"Hehe, Boss Zhao's hand pawned yesterday and redeemed it today, it is really wonderful, it not only solves the danger of Linlangji, but also stabilizes the operation, and congratulates you in advance." A man hugs his fists.

"Hehe, where, where is it, this is thanks to the help of the two, and the reward of the two will be given later." Zhao Gudong hugged his fists.

The person who came was Su Li, who was at odds with Li Tao in the arena.

It turned out that Zhao Gudong was using a strategy this time, and he just turned the situation around for the time being. In fact, Zhao Gudong was almost bankrupt before, had no ability to repay, and still had a few assets left, and Zhao Gudong, who was desperate, couldn't do it.

Zhao Gudong's remaining net worth was all used by him to gamble in Yimulan Xiangyuan, and after he lost two in a row, Zhao Gudong almost committed suicide in the manor. And at this time, the two people changed his fate. One is Mu Jingxi. Zhao Gudong happened to catch up with Mu Jingxi's match against the Camel King at that time, and he pressed all the last ones, and overnight, he actually collected 890,000 taels of silver. Since then, Mu Jingxi's every event Zhao Gudong is betting, although the odds are gradually decreasing, but fortunately Mu Jingxi will win every battle, but also make a steady profit, with the help of Mu Jingxi, Zhao Gudong won a full 1.86 million taels, so that he basically got out of the predicament.

The other is to take the initiative to talk to him, provide him with the inside story, and arrange Su Li to fight fake boxing. After Su Li helped contact the four players, Zhao Gudong promised to make a heavy profit to let the person with high odds win, and he received nearly one million taels.

Of course, just last night, Na Su Li also made an operation, so that Li Tao, who had low odds, was defeated by the blood harrier, and Zhao Gudong finally scraped together more than four million taels. The black-robed man beside him was the Blood Harrier.

Subsequently, Zhao Gudong mortgaged all the shops and jewelry overnight, so as to create the illusion that he was enough to pay off his debts and had a surplus.

He knew very well that if he showed a little cowardice today, he would be doomed, so he asked the Blood Harrier to take the lead and showed strength everywhere, in order to make the jewelers feel that they had confidence, and then he had the only channel to operate crystals, which really frightened everyone. Otherwise, if he really loses money today, he will have nothing.

"I'm sorry to ask Brother Su to arrange it tonight." Zhao Gu Dongdao.

"That's natural, I've already looked for a good candidate, as long as I don't get discovered by the manor, no matter how generous Boss Zhao is, it's not a big problem." Zurich.

"Oh, I don't know who?"

"Pinghu Horse!"

"Oh, okay, if this is the case, I am willing to contribute 10,000 taels. Hehe, Zhao is his admirer! ”
