Chapter 191: Cat and Mouse
"Don't be angry! Brother-in-law! ”
Wei Yiyi gently shook the teapot and slowly poured the tea from the pot into the teacup.
"Yes, big brother, so many years have passed, not to mention that Wei Qingyi's cheap girl has found a reason for this matter, which can be regarded as somewhat useful!"
Wei Qing's anger calmed down a little when she heard this, "This is also a coincidence, if it weren't for her idea of wanting to fight the Wei Family Chamber of Commerce, she would be useless even if she died, and it would only bring shame to the family!" ”
The Wei family, Wei Qing, Wei Shao, and Wei Yi are brothers, in addition to the bloodline, the three of them have lived and died together, desperately fighting to get out of the encirclement, so the relationship is extremely close, even if because of Wei Qingyi's affairs back then, Wei Zicheng handed over most of the family's authority to Wei Shao, but the three brothers are still mostly headed by Wei Qing's words.
The elders are like this, and the children and nephews respect Wei Qing even more, and they dare not have the slightest arrogance and rudeness.
In order to snatch the business of the four major chambers of commerce these days, the three brothers sent a lot of people to take over the major auction houses and peddlers one by one, and the people who had worked for the four major chambers of commerce were loyal to the new master, so that the three brothers were proud, this transaction was done, and the profits in the future were so much that even gold would be smashed into the door when they were sleeping, the strength of the Wei family was close at hand, how could the three brothers not be happy!
Wei Zicheng sat upright in the hall, although he did not speak, but the posture of raising his eyebrows when drinking tea made people see his pride at a glance.
Monopolizing the auction business of the entire land of Kyushu, this is a thing that outsiders can't even think about, and when the position of the palace master of the Xuanwu Gate Heavenly Palace is in an uproar, it will not attract people's attention, nor will it cause unnecessary trouble.
After all, in the eyes of most forces, the position of the palace master of the Xuanwu Gate Heavenly Palace is more important, and the four major chambers of commerce are just some small things about money, how can they be compared with them?
But the Wei family clearly knows the importance of money, individuals will not do business when they walk the rivers and lakes, relying on favors and guests, except for some large sects, many small sects have to run some businesses in order to provide daily expenses, otherwise many people can't even afford to eat, how can they practice martial arts?
Money is not an important factor in front of a force or sect, so what can money do? For the Wei family, the more money there is, the more people who give grace, whether it is in the present or in the future, there will always be a return, and this return is often something that money can't buy.
If you have more money, there will be more people at the bottom, and you will know more news, and it will be much easier to do what you want to do and what you don't want to do.
If there is more money, there will be more treasures, in the eyes of those people, maybe the status is higher, many things, you can't use them, and the younger generations who love them in the clan don't need them?
The more money you have, the more disciples you will receive, the more talented and intelligent people will follow, and the possibility of becoming a strong person in the future will be much greater than that of those mediocre people.
What's more, the Wei family still has the huge protection of the Xuanwumen Heavenly Palace, and when the big event is certain, people will react, who would dare to do anything to the Wei Family Chamber of Commerce?
Look at the combat effectiveness of the four major chambers of commerce, this piece of fat is the same as the one picked up for nothing.
Wei Zicheng admired his decision in his heart, it seemed that God wanted to give him a chance to achieve great things, so he had an idea, and after that, the Wei family was under the wings of the Xuanwumen Heavenly Palace, and no one would come to attack, and then control most of the transactions and circulation, accumulate strength, and gradually in the future, he might be able to control the Xuanwumen Heavenly Palace in turn and become a god-king sect in the rivers and lakes.
Then, if you continue to grow, is it possible to ............?
Wei Zicheng greedily let go of his thoughts, but he forgot a very serious matter, his two grandsons Wei Shaolian and Wei Shaoyan, who he loved very much, had not come back for three days.
Wei Zicheng knows, Wei Shao and Wei Qing also know, but they don't worry, the small Meng Family Chamber of Commerce has no masters at all, and the people on the rivers and lakes will not embarrass the Wei family for no reason, maybe the two of them will have fun in the Meng family!
The entire Wei family has never worried about the Meng family, it is like a cat catching a mouse, there is only one possibility that the mouse can run away or not.
………………
At the foot of Xuanwu Mountain, looking up, the layers of attics are hanging on the pillars like a birdcage, and the clouds and mist in the middle add a bit of majestic momentum, which makes people feel afraid.
Long Yun and Wei Yueyang and the others finally came to the foot of Xuanwu Mountain in Haiming Mansion, looking at this naturally formed mountain, coupled with the ingenious attic, the clouds were misty, and they admired in their hearts that it was indeed worthy of being an emperor-level sect.
The four of them stopped and stopped along the way, talking and laughing, and the relationship was much closer, but Yu Ping was still a little timid towards Wei Yueyang and didn't dare to speak loudly.
Long Yun saw such a beautiful color every day, and he was a little immune, but when he thought of the people around him, he always had a sense of comfort from the spring breeze, and he couldn't shake it off.
At the foot of the mountain, Long Yun found the direction of the phoenix lotus's growth according to the news of the jade, but he couldn't see it at all when he looked up at the bottom of the mountain, and he could only confirm whether it was still there when he went up the mountain.
The problem of going up the mountain has bothered Long Yun for a long time, and he can't teach Xuanwumen Tiangong a lesson for this, spread it out, everything else is okay, robbing people and things for no reason, just his father Long Yu can't spare himself.
The terrain at the foot of Xuanwu Mountain is open, and although there are a small number of woods and huge rocks, you can basically see the pedestrians passing by.
While wandering, a servant dressed in coarse linen came over and whispered to Long Yun and the others, "Are you here for the Phoenix Lotus?" ”
Long Yun and Wei Yueyang were surprised, where did this person come from? I knew the purpose of their trip.
Long Yun didn't hide it and said calmly: "Not bad! ”
"The phoenix lotus on the mountain has been picked by my master, if you want to, why don't you go with me to meet my master!"
"Oh?"
"That's a strange thing!"
Wei Yueyang: "Who have you told about these medicinal things?" ”
Long Yun squinted and swept over the three of them: "Feng Lianhua only told ............"
Wei Yueyang: "Only told us three?? ”
"Not bad!"
"That ............"
"Then it can only be jade!"
"The place where these things are located is what Jade told me, and they naturally know that I am looking for it, so they can be even more sure that Jade has long since disobeyed the rules!"
Wei Yueyang was a little angry and said, "Lead the way ahead!" ”
"Yes!"
The five of them made their way north, through a forest, past a mountain range, and a few days later, to a cliff.
Seeing that it was getting more and more remote, Yu Ping was a little worried, and whispered in Long Yun's ear: "Could it be a trap?" ”
Long Yun didn't care and said, "It doesn't matter, there is no trap in the world that can put me in!" ”
Wei Yueyang sneered on the side: "Hmph, arrogant! ”
There was a spiraling staircase on the edge of the cliff, and several people followed it into a cave in the rock wall.
Candles were lit everywhere in the cave, and it was not dark, but rather fragrant, as if there were some spices in it.
There were many forks in the cave, and the servant took Long Yun and the others to turn left and right, and it took more than half an hour to come to a wall with an iron gate and stop.
The servant pushed the iron door open, made a gesture of please, and stepped aside.
Long Yun is not afraid, Wei Yueyang is not afraid, although Yu Ping is worried, he is not afraid, Yao Lan'er is protected by Yu Ping, that is the safest place she thinks.
There was a man sitting in the room, a man dressed in red, but without covering his face, and many phoenix flowers were placed in front of him.
Seeing Long Yun walk in, the man in red hurriedly stood up and said, "This must be the famous Long Shaoxia!" ”
When Long Yun saw that this person was wearing red, he immediately remembered the group of red-clothed people he had killed a few days ago, and sneered: "You sent someone to die?" ”
The man in red was furious, and was about to make a move, but the outstretched hand stopped in mid-air, and then smiled warmly, and said: "This can't be blamed on me, originally Brother Long's treasures are your own business, and we won't rob them anyway, but at this moment, the treasure in the hands of the brothers involves the position of the palace master of the Xuanwu Gate Heavenly Palace, even if we don't rob it, there will be other people to rob it, if Brother Long doesn't look down on the position of the palace master of this district, why don't we make a deal?" ”
Long Yun saw that although this person was provoked, he could restrain his control in an instant, and secretly admired him for being a character.
"What deal?"
"I'll exchange all the phoenix lotus flowers in this wall room for the Heavenly Jade in the hands of the Dragon Brothers!"
"The Heavenly Jade in my hand is one of the six treasures, how much are these flowers and plants worth of yours, can they be exchanged?"
"Although I don't know what Brother Long wants these flowers and plants for, they must be very important, and if you miss these, it will be difficult for you to find others!"
Long Yun took out the Heaven Creation Jade in his arms and checked it, "Add one more condition!" ”
"On what terms?"
"I want to know how you know I'm looking for it!"
"Jade!"
"Did Jade sell you this news, or did you ............?"
"As long as Brother Long agrees to this deal, I can tell you a secret!"
"What's the secret?"
"...... about jade"
"Okay, deal!"
Long Yun threw the Heaven Maker Jade in his hand to the man in red and said, "If the secret is fake, you won't be able to hold this treasure steadily!" ”
The man in red turned over and looked at the Heavenly Jade for a long time, and after confirming that it was correct, he said, "Don't worry, we don't want to make extraneous branches at this critical moment!" ”
"What exactly is Jade ......?"
"In the eyes of you or other people in the rivers and lakes, jade is an intelligence organization and does not involve any forces, but in fact, jade has long worked for our emperor-level sect, what news we want to spread, what will be spread on the rivers and lakes, we don't want others to know, jade will close its mouth and pretend not to know, the few herbs you are looking for, after you get the heaven-making jade, jade will take the initiative to notify all the emperor-level sects, so you will ............"
"Enough!"
Wei Yueyang interrupted the words of the man in red, perhaps because of anger, or because of disgrace, just like his own dog biting someone else's instructions, although it was not his own bite, it was enough to disgrace the five holy lands.
What's more, judging by the current situation, the dog has bitten its owner.
The man in red looked at Long Yun and wanted to continue to say something, after all, the person who traded with him was Long Yun.
Long Yun waved his hand and said, "No need, this question of mine is for her, I don't care about how the jade is!" ”
Man in Red: "Our deal, then!" ”
"If you're right, you'll do it!"
"Okay, please keep it a secret for us!"
"Good!"
Soon after the four of them left the cliff with a small bag of phoenix lotus, another person in red walked out of the fork in the road and said to the red-clothed man inside, "Just let them go?" ”
"The people sent before were killed one by one, which is enough to prove Long Yun's strength, the origin of the woman beside him is very mysterious, and she can't even find out the jade, the master ordered, it's better to be careful!"
"Can't even find out the jade?"
"Yes, it seems to have appeared out of nowhere, without a trace!"
Some people died, but not completely......
