Chapter 180: Freedom Ridge, Qiao Xuan.
Tang Wenyuan greeted Ye Buqu first before pulling Ye Chen aside, and took out a gold card behind everyone's back and stuffed it over: "Virtuous nephew, your Uncle Song is busy with official business, so he won't come to see him off, he has always had no concept of money and is really not rich, and I have been in a vacant position for a long time and don't have any oil and water, together I can get the 80,000 gold coins, you must bring it with you to the poor family, Tang Xing, this kid is a bit of a tiger, help Uncle Tang keep an eye on him." ”
Seeing this, Tang Wenyuan first chuckled and shook his head and nodded vigorously, then patted Ye Chen's shoulder and turned to Ye Buqu, the two chatted warmly and entered the inner room together, Ye Chen put away the gold card and took a long breath and came to Song Qian's side.
"Brother Chen, pay attention to your body on the road, your sister-in-law is staring at Chun Tao Hongxing at home to avoid mistakes, Uncle Tang has already arranged it when he comes, and he will use the official teleportation array when he goes to Freedom Ridge, and when you leave, I will keep an eye on Du Qiuyue, hoping to gain something."
Song Qian behaved lightly from beginning to end, obviously didn't take Du Qiuyue seriously, Ye Chen frowned slightly when he saw this, and felt inappropriate, but after thinking about it again, he felt that he was worrying blindly, today's Song Qian is not the same as in the past, although Uncle Song is not the son of the Song family, but he is still in power now, so Song Qian is the veritable number one in the Sifang City, unless the mercenary union wants to rebel, otherwise just one Du Qiuyan or the mercenary branch of the Sifang City can't afford to make a moth.
"Brother Qian'er is relieved that Zhizhu is holding the little brother, but you need to pay more attention to safety when entering and exiting."
Ye Chen finally had to say more, after all, the dog was in a hurry and jumped over the wall, and the rabbit was in a hurry and bitten, and Song Qian didn't support it at all, and immediately nodded and agreed, and then took out a gold card and handed it to Ye Chen: "There are 100,000 yuan here, it's your sister-in-law's private money, it's useless to put it in your hand, let me bring it to you, if you can't send it out, don't let me enter the door, Brother Xian will look at it." ”
"Okay, I'll take it, and when Brother Qian'er and sister-in-law use the money in the future, they will be informed, at least double it."
After receiving the gold card with both hands, Ye Chen smiled lightly and made a promise, but deep down his heart was turbulent, Song Qian did not shirk it, nodding and smiling is worth a thousand words.
Young people always have endless topics to talk about, about a quarter of an hour later, Ye Buqu and Tang Wenyuan finally finished talking and came to the courtyard, so far the group officially set off and went straight to the center of the city's government order to take the teleportation array, I have to say that these big cities extend in all directions, and they are one of the few important cities that can directly teleport to Freedom Ridge, so they saved Ye Chen and others a lot of waste of time, and they have already set foot in the boundary of Freedom Ridge just three poles on the day.
As the light of the large teleportation array quickly fell, Ye Chen and the others showed their bodies and looked around, at this moment they were in the middle of a six-pillar pavilion, and this pavilion was actually located on a mountain cliff, with green trees on three sides and a deep valley of green trees, and only one road extended into a cave not far away.
In a moment, a man in a strange suit walked out of the cave, and when he saw Ye Chen and the others looking over, he waved enthusiastically, and when he got closer, both the comfort revealed by the clothes he was wearing and the decent manners of this person were very familiar.
"You must be distinguished guests from the Thundering Empire, the contemptible number three thousand and thirty-four is responsible for leading the way, just call me zero three and four, if there is anything you want to know, you can ask while walking, please come with me."
Zero 34 raised his hand and turned around, so that everyone was awkward and novel, but this did not include Ye Buqu, he was the only maverick who took the lead in following as if he had discovered a new continent, and the rest of the people were very puzzled when they saw this, and they all looked at Ye Chen, but Ye Chen didn't know what was going on, and he walked away without taking a step.
"Well, zero thirty-four is right, can you easily reveal the surname of the lord of Liberty Ridge?"
Ye Buqu was not polite at all, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he went straight to the point, and everyone behind him collapsed in unison, I was really afraid that this master would provoke others before he could finish something, however, as soon as the words fell, he immediately replied: "There is no so-called master family in Freedom Ridge, only two surnames control the operation, namely the surname Qiao and the surname Tie, and then there are people with foreign surnames like me who will be registered with a number." ”
"Eh, last time we saved that one, was it named Qiao Xuan, and that Tie Lao Jiu, could they all be from Freedom Ridge?"
After listening to the answer, the fat man immediately lowered his voice to express his opinion, Ye Chen thought that there were really many places that were right, and he still remembered that when Qiao was leaving, he kept saying that he wanted to set up a wine and treat him, but then he didn't even see the figure and left it.
"Okay, don't fix these things that you don't have, I'll let you inquire more a long time ago, or talk about the business and save it for a while."
Ye Chen just didn't get too entangled in his brain, after all, the so-called kindness was not mentioned, but this time it was considered to have stabbed the fat man's big hole, a pair of mung bean-like eyes instantly shining, his big lips pursed, and he coughed lightly twice to attract everyone's attention before he spoke: "Although this Freedom Ridge is independent at the same time as our empire, it has been in existence for a long time, it is said that ...... Qiao Yanyan may really be from Freedom Ridge, and it seems that he wants to invite us to dinner. ”
The fat man suddenly pulled up a long tone as he spoke, and at the same time stretched his neck to look forward, and then what he said was even more inexplicable, but when everyone looked at the front in confusion, they instantly felt that what the fat man said was very reliable, and no one could have imagined that Qiao Yanyan was actually standing at the exit and beckoning to this side, and it was inevitable that the same sentence would appear in his heart, don't talk about ghosts at night and people during the day.
Soon, everyone came down to the outside of the cave, and Zero 34 quickly stepped forward to greet Qiao Yanyan and turned around and said, "Forgive me for being clumsy, it turns out that you are friends of the little master, and then the little master will arrange for you to retire."
After closing the words, 034 bowed slightly to Ye Chen and the others and Qiao Xian and walked away, and as soon as the front foot left, Ye Buqu did not shy away from asking: "You are the head of the Qiao family?" How much weight does the speech have? ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was sweating, and asked themselves in their hearts, but anyone who asked themselves like this is definitely a psychopath, but Qiao Xuanxuan obviously excepted, not only did the smile on his face not decrease by half, but also respectfully hugged his fists and saluted before replying: "Senior Ye, we have always had dealings with Sifang City, and we went to the public office to find out where the cult was hiding, and then we were in a hurry to return because of official business, so a few little brothers laughed, and Sifang City had already been notified when everyone came, so I waited here." ”
"As for my identity, I need to start from the long, Freedom Ridge, Qiao, Tie, two controls, the Qiao family is in charge of trading, trading, official documents, and assignments, and the Tie family is responsible for the safe outing of the ridge and the necessary force deterrence, among which the Qiao family is divided into three classes although there is no difference between the noble and the low, and the zero three and four is the third class of the special division to usher in, which has been numbered instead of the name just for the convenience of management, and in private it is commensurate with my real name, I belong to the second class, and the power in my hands is some but very limited, and I am not the direct line of the Qiao family is a pure foreign surname, In the past, it was more diligent to be included in the surname Qiao by the main family, and the first class has to be subdivided into two classes, one is that the power of the direct family of the surname Qiao is undoubted, and the other is that the authority of the person with outstanding achievements is second only to the direct family, commonly known as the big shopkeeper, as for the iron family, I don't want to say much, if there is a chance, Ye seniors can ask in person. ”
Qiao Wei's words are very detailed and organized, whether it is Ye Chen and other young people or Ye Buqu, they all listen clearly, and then Qiao Weiyan continued: "The power relations in the mountains are generally like this, there will be a medium-sized auction in three days, if you have an urgent need at the moment, I can lead the way, or let me do my best to apologize to the landlord, I don't know what to do?" ”
"Well, that's very good, young people should be more close, but I don't need to save you from restraints, I'll go around alone first."
Ye Buqu agreed without waiting for everyone to discuss, and then said that he was afraid that people would pick him up, but he was still shouted after taking a few steps.
"Ye senior, please stay, this map of the ridge and the waist card should also be brought with you, the place to stay arranged for everyone is called the Fountain of Freedom, the waist card can allow you to freely enter and exit some places without trouble, and it is marked on the map."
Qiao Yan hurriedly caught up with the things and sent them out, Ye Bu gave a thumbs up in his pocket, then turned around and left, and soon disappeared in the crowd, everyone invariably gathered their eyes on Ye Chen, who was speechless and had to shrug his shoulders and spread his hands, and secretly used his eyes to signal Qiao Wei to lead the way quickly.
The terrain of Freedom Ridge is stacked high and low in an orderly manner, climbing from south to north, the northernmost cliff is steep to the extreme, and the large swamp below is the danger of the vast swamp, so the centralized center of Freedom Ridge is located on the highest first mountain ridge in the north, and the guards are strict and outsiders are not allowed to trespass, and the largest auction hall is built in the second ridge to the south in turn, and the largest auction hall is open once or twice a year, and there are arenas and many well-known shops on the mainland in the third ridge, but you must obtain qualifications to enter, and the fourth ridge is the second auction hall three days later, there will be auctions, Five Ridges and Six Ridges are mainly living areas and are distributed with many teleportation arrays, Seven, Eight and Nine Ridges are open to the public all the year round, there are markets lit up every day, as long as you don't cause trouble, you can live at will and set up stalls to open shops, of course, some expenses and taxes are inevitable, the above is the freedom of Jiuling.
Along the way, Ye Chen and others did not use their mouths to tell the general situation of Freedom Ridge, as for the map, it is a copy of each person and there are only two waist cards, but fortunately, the holder can bring someone to accompany him, and then everyone followed to experience what is some right, that is a table full of delicacies, not inferior to honey barbecue or water blade magic fish feast, the altar and wine are like jade liquid elixir, the key is to eat dry and wipe clean and even half a gold coin does not need to give, I saw Qiao Chuan handed out the waist card and let it go, and finally saw the fountain of freedom that he did, It is a luxury hotel with a combination of natural hot springs and six-story accommodation, and it is said to be the number one hotel in the entire continent.
The next day, Ye Chen didn't get up until the third pole of the day, washed and dressed neatly, and went from house to house and ate a lot of closed-door soup, Xu Daliang, a martial idiot, found that he didn't come back all night when he practiced in the hot springs, Ding Shanshan said that Bao'er slept late and didn't get up, Tang Xing, the young man, didn't know where to go, and there was no news, as for Ye Buqu, Ye Chen didn't go to touch the mold, but only the fat man waited in the room and took care of himself meticulously, let's just count it.
"Brother Ye Chen, I couldn't sleep all night last night and concentrated on studying the map, if you don't have a place to go, I have a plan that is not mature."
The fat man rubbed his hands as if he was offering a treasure, but Ye Chen didn't even think about it and immediately replied: "If it's not mature, I'll stuff it in my stomach first, I can't hold back it, please go to the corner of the wall to take care of yourself, and if you have spare time, go and prepare more food and drink, and then go down the Qiling Ridge, and don't come back until the end of the Jiuling." ”
