The Tian'an General Assembly is 100 feet high, with a total of 19 floors, and clouds and mist can be seen on the top floor.

As a chamber of commerce, it seems a little too grandiose, but it makes a lot more sense to think of it as the financial headquarters of an empire.

The main hall on the first floor of the Tian'an General Association is more than 20 zhang high, and twelve towering beams and pillars of carved beams and paintings support the huge dome, and there are not many people coming and going inside, but it is very quiet, with the majesty of the magnificent pile, most of the merchants who come here to suppress their voices and even their steps, including Xu Yuan and Bai Muxi.

Xu Yuan walked in front, and Bai Muxi hung his head and followed silently.

The two walked all the way, silent all the way.

The atmosphere was depressed and stagnant, because Fang Cai Xu Yuan's words were really a bit heavy, and Fang was beating, but it was more of a naked threat.

Xu Yuan didn't want to do this, but he had to.

The relationship between him and Xiaobai can be regarded as a son and a maid, but he is also the prince of the prime minister and the secretary of the underground palace.

Although they are both one person, the deep meaning of the words spoken by the two identities is completely different.

If he chats daily as a master and servant, no matter what Xiaobai does, he can turn a blind eye, relying on tea art to seduce him, relying on tea art to bully other Tianyan and other things Xu Yuan doesn't care.

But if Bai Muxi came to talk as the commander of the underground palace, Xu Yuan would have to pay attention to it. As for Fang Cai's words, Bai Muxi obviously said it in the capacity of the commander of the underground palace.

Again,

Loyalty in exchange for interests will eventually return to interests.

Bai Muxi always put the word kindness on his lips, although Xu Yuan has never denied it, but he is also clear in his heart.

Kindness is not worth much, this thing is too abstract.

If you don't pay it back, how you can pay it back, it all depends on the character of the person who received the favor.

Therefore, when the underground palace was reached, Xu Yuan directly set the tone for this transaction.

It's not a favor, it's an exchange of interests.

The Prime Minister's Mansion made efforts to rescue the remnants of the underground palace, and the remnants of the underground palace served the Prime Minister's Mansion.

As a maid, Xiaobai is very teay, but Bai Muxi, who is the commander of the underground palace, has a high political literacy.

In the past few months, she has absorbed a lot of knowledge about the surface like a sponge with the information of the Prime Minister's Office.

She clearly knows the value of the remnants of the underground palace to the current Prime Minister's Mansion, so she wants to change the "contract" and seek greater benefits for her people.

After all, the gap between the status and benefits of the "Palu" who is a vassal of the Prime Minister and the partner who is the Prime Minister is not a star and a half.

Like Lou Ji's Black Prison, the Tian'an General Association is divided into three areas, but the difference is that each area of the Tian'an General Association is subdivided into A, B, C, D, and four classes, and each level is subdivided into many commodity categories, which increase in order according to the scale of the business.

Holding the token of the heaven-level first-class, the two of them came to the seventeenth floor in silence all the way, this floor is the floor where the heaven-level first-class is located, and continued to walk upward, but the two were pushed back by a soft force.

It's a formation.

The eighteenth floor is where the most mysterious Treasure Pavilion of the Tian'an Chamber of Commerce is located, which is usually not open, and will only be open to the holders of the Tian-level first-class tokens when the biennial Tianji Auction is held.

Thinking in his heart, Xu Yuan tried to use the soul key of the inner courtyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion to communicate the formation, and stepped again, and the soft power was no longer there.

Really.

The soul key in the inner courtyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion can not only be unimpeded in the black prison, but also in this Tian'an Association.

With a slight smile, Xu Yuangang walked a few steps along the stairs, and a low voice finally sounded in his ears:

"Childe. Mu Xi knew that he was wrong. ”

His footsteps stopped for a moment, Xu Yuan snorted and replied:

"I haven't spoken for so long, does my son still think that our Lord Si Ming has lost his temper? But think about it, it's also that individuals are unhappy in the face of that kind of threat. ”

Going up the stairs, Bai Muxi's voice was very low:

Mu Xi didn't dare.

Xu Yuan snorted lightly, glanced back at Xiao Bai beside him, and said softly:

"What don't you dare, this son knows what you are thinking, just talk about the matter, the appeal you want is actually quite reasonable, after all, the value of the remnants of the underground palace to my prime minister's mansion is indeed very great.

"But Bai Muxi, not all reasonable demands in this world can be satisfied."

Bai Muxi cautiously raised her eyes and glanced at Xu Yuan, but after seeing that he was looking at her, she immediately lowered her gaze:

"Mu Xi is willing to listen to the son's arrangement."

"You don't have to be a snake with me here."

Xu Yuan directly interrupted Bai Muxi's words, and simply said directly:

"My son directly made it clear to you, the agreement made with you in the dungeon can be changed, but there is no possibility in the past thirty years, and during this period, the remnants of the dungeon must unconditionally obey any instructions of the prime minister's house."

There was silence for a moment, and Bai Muxi asked in a low voice:

"Is Childe serious?"

"Thirty years is just a guarantee."

Xu Yuan looked directly at Bai Muxi and smiled: "To save you from that dark underground palace, even if it costs a generation, this deal should be very cost-effective, right?" ”

“.”

Bai Muxi didn't answer these words, and was silent.

Seeing this, Xu Yuan frowned slightly, snorted lightly and laughed:

"You don't seem to be very happy?"

Bai Muxi took a deep breath, raised his eyes and said:

"Childe, Mu Xi has already understood the situation in Dayan, with the recent arrangements of Lord Xiangguo, there is a high probability that war will be inevitable, and most of Mu Xi's clan will inevitably become the first-line soldiers, if this is the case."

"But without my intervention, with the few cultivators in your dungeon, it won't add up enough to fight a mortal ghost, and it will be devoured in a few decades, leaving nothing alive."

“.” Bai Muxi was silent.

Go to the eighteenth floor and continue up.

Seeing that Bai Muxi hadn't spoken, Xu Yuan took a deep breath, suddenly paused, looked back at her, and whispered:

"Looks like I'm still a little too gentle."

Bai Muxi's body trembled violently when he heard this.

Seeing this, Xu Yuan gently patted her shoulder and said in a low voice:

"Don't be afraid, I'm not angry, but you know me, I've always been impatient"

"Childe." Bai Muxi pursed her red lips.

"Shut up."

Xu Yuan's tone dropped slightly:

"I'm a little annoyed now, I don't want to care too much about your dungeon's affairs, so I'll just give you a choice.

"First, be honest and obedient.

"Second, I'll hand over this matter to my father, and he will talk to you."

Xu Yuan stared at her eyes and said softly:

"My father already knew about the situation in the underground palace, and he wanted to intervene in this matter before, but I blocked it for the time being."

“.”

Bai Muxi's eyes widened slightly, and the look in his eyes flickered rapidly.

Xu Yuan slowly withdrew his hand and said softly:

"You may think my request is very unreasonable, but that is a means that you have not seen my father, Mu Xi, compared to his old man, I am really very kind to you.

"I can tell you what will happen when he takes over.

"A few of you high-level and mid-level will be directly controlled, or even executed.

"Hundreds of thousands of remnants of the underground palace will be split into hundreds or even thousands of families of different sizes and scattered throughout Great Yan, and those who can cultivate will be disorganized and organized into the Black Lin Army for brainwashing.

"At that time, most of your people will indeed survive, but within twenty years, they will be broken and chewed up by the Prime Minister, swallowed and digested, and directly become history."

Speaking of this, Xu Yuan smiled lowly, as if he thought of something very funny:

"Of course, you can also try to resist him, try to contact other forces in the Great Yan Territory to try to take refuge, if you can do it under his old man's nose."
