Volume 1 The Rebirth of the Hidden Dragon Chapter 51 The Nine-Story Building
There are two major water systems in the Cangwu Continent, the Yuncang River connects Izumo and Cangfeng, and the Nu River originates in Izumo and flows into the Endless Sea through Dongwu Province.
As the gateway to Kyoto, Wuzhou is located in the middle reaches of the Nu River, which is the largest dry and dry port in Izumo Province, connecting the west and east to communicate with the north and south, where goods gather.
The south bank is a commercial distribution center, while the north bank is a political center, and the urban area on the south bank alone is enough to be two Baiyun Castles, which is worthy of the name of Little Kyoto.
The puja is held at the Kasumi Light Ashram on the North Shore, where the devotees have carefully cultivated the gorse for a whole year.
Plantagenet is the symbol of Tianyanjiao, and it is also the honorific name of the founding patriarch, and the successive generations of masters will also take a flower as an alias, but the gorse as a symbol has been continued.
The sea of golden flowers dances lightly in the wind, as if it is the layers of waves, and the faint fragrance makes people fascinated, and it is easy for people to find peace in their hearts when they concentrate on practicing here.
There are millions of believers who have come to make the pilgrimage, and the teachings they pray for linger in all corners of Wuzhou, making people feel as if they are in the Taoist country, even if they are not believers, they are also infected by this atmosphere and unconsciously follow the prayer.
Su Lingmeng looked at Yun Hao, who had no response to the prayer beside him, and asked, "With your cultivation, you can be completely free from temptation. โ
"Bewitched? Xiaomeng, do you have any thoughts on Tianyan Sect? "Yun Hao is a little strange.
Su Lingmeng said: "They didn't care about the disaster in the south, and the natural disaster was said to be a curse and pushed it away, I never thought of a sect that spread all over the world, and what it preached was not benevolence but self-cultivation." โ
Yun Hao disagreed, "What's wrong with being alone, there are many things in the world that are caused by inadequacy, and contentment is the duty of mortals." โ
"If you agree with this, why are you acting so flamboyantly?" Su Lingmeng sneered, her disdain was inconsistent.
"Mortals should be like this, but this king is not an extraordinary person." Yun Hao's tone was very calm, as if he was talking about a natural thing.
Su Lingmeng laughed even more, "Everyone thinks like you, and they all think they are extraordinary, who is who is mortal?" โ
"You've got it." Yun Hao showed a relieved expression.
"..........." Su Lingmeng was speechless.
The first thing Yun Hao had to do when he entered Wuzhou City was to go to the Shenmu Club to find Qian Wanshan to cash in charcoal, this Shenmu Club business spread all over the four countries, and its strength was naturally not small, which can be seen from the fact that the buildings of the General Assembly are all built of rare wood species.
When he arrived at the Shenmu Society, Yun Hao did not wait for Qian Wanshan, but what he was waiting for was the vice president of the association, Huang Jinzhou, the middle-aged man had no expression on his face, only a pair of eyes revealed a capable light, and he said with a businesslike appearance: "I will return from a long time and be unwell, so let's come back another day." โ
Su Lingmeng only accompanied her, and she didn't know about the transaction between Yun Hao and Qian Wanshan, but she could also see that Qian Wanshan was deliberately avoiding, and now that she was in someone else's territory, she also wanted to know what Yun Hao would do.
Facing Huang Jinzhou's cold face, Yun Hao took out the contract signed by Qian Wanshan and said, "It doesn't matter if you don't see it, this gentleman is here to carry charcoal." โ
Huang Jinzhou looked at the bill of lading and said: "This is an unfair deal, do you know how many coals there are in this batch, I don't know how you coerced the president to sign the agreement, but it is not your turn to do whatever you want in the Shenmu General Association." โ
Yun Hao said with a smile: "I knew that you would be like this, Benjun mortgaged the charcoal to the Xu family, and they will talk about it in the future, and Benjun believes that they will be very happy." โ
After saying that, Yun Hao turned his head and left, and said again, "Tell you that the president, the matter of Guiyizong is not over, his confession is still in the hands of Benjun, and no one can stop him if he wants to die." โ
Qian Wanshan, who was hiding in the back hall, mouthed bitter water, and Huang Jinzhou walked in and said, "President, what's going on?" โ
Qian Wanshan raised his forehead and said: "If anyone comes to bring charcoal again, give it to him, this matter is difficult to explain." โ
"The chairman sent a letter back last time to say that there is a kind of lotus root coal that can replace the coal, but now not only the order is gone, but all the coals have been put in, and the shareholders in the meeting have complained a lot, and asked the chairman to personally appease them."
Huang Jinzhou said and brushed his sleeves away, and whispered in his mouth, "Waste." โ

The Nine Towers are not one building but nine, three of which are located in the other three countries, one in the buffer zone of the border of the four countries, one in the Endless Sea to the east, and the other four in Izumo Province, with the main building located in Wushu Castle.
If the money business is to connect the world, the owner of each floor of the nine-story building has the right to operate independently, in charge of lending, depositing and withdrawing, exchange and other businesses, absolute power naturally requires absolute supervision, and the royal family is the hardest backstage of the Xu family.
The nine-story building in Wuzhou City was completely different from what Yun Hao had envisioned, and an inconspicuous two-story building was the center of the vast money empire.
The golden tile and red wall of the entire small building unabashedly present blood and money to the world.
You can hear the sound of the abacus from afar, Yun Hao came here Xu Shaoyang did not come out to entertain, but a woman with a graceful figure and a beautiful face with Yun Hao on her temples, she was generous and greeted Yun Hao.
"Welcome to the second floor of the two distinguished guests of Baiyun City, the little woman is Xu Man'er, the head of this building, and Xu Shaoyang is my husband."
Second floor? It is said that this Wuzhou is the headquarters of the nine-story building, why is it the second floor instead of the first floor.
Yun Hao didn't want to inquire, and said bluntly: "Benjun and your husband have negotiated a deal. After that, he handed the charcoal contract to Xu Man'er, "Xu Shaoyang is hiding from Benjun, doesn't he also want to deny it." โ
Xu Man'er covered her mouth and smiled, "The master of the cloud gate said that it was a joke, our nine-story building is a money deal, and what we are talking about is the word integrity, and the things that my husband and the door master have agreed on will naturally be counted, and if the door master wants to cash it out now, there will be no problem." โ
Yun Hao said with satisfaction: "Very good, first of all, Benjun wants to have a piece of land on the south bank that is suitable for making shops, you should not lack such a place in your mortgage business, and it is better if there is a ready-made one." โ
Xu Man'er didn't think about it, so she said: "There is really a courtyard, the front yard can be used as a shop, and the backyard can be used as a shop, and the backyard can be used as a person. โ
The commercial road on the south bank is naturally spacious, and several large cars can drive in parallel, but now it is just in time for the pilgrimage, and the crowds are surging, even if you are riding a horse, it is difficult to move forward, but the carriage of the Xu family is an exception, because it is the Fengluan given by the emperor, and whoever does not give way is to despise the imperial power.
Following behind Feng Luan's royal car, Yun Hao was considered to be stained, and couldn't help but say: "It is convenient to act with the word of the emperor, Xiaomeng, you say yes." โ
Su Lingmeng didn't squint and said: "You don't miss any opportunity to satisfy your curiosity, such abuse of imperial authority will inevitably cause criticism, so Wei Dongbai doesn't want to use Shenmu to suppress the Xu family, but it's better to be more restrained in everything." โ
Yun Hao said: "Are you talking about the royal family or the Xu family?" โ
Su Lingmeng exhaled lightly and said, "Sooner or later, you will die on this mouth." โ
