Chapter 20 Interesting, Really Interesting
Lingzong, next to Lingyun Pool.
Nan Liangsheng's figure is like a silent painting, sitting quietly by the pool. Her eyes were deep, reflecting the starry radiance.
Soon, she stood up suddenly, her wide eyes staring at the dissipated divine thought, and the robe in her hand couldn't help but clench into a fist, trembling slightly.
- It's over, it's really out.
Nan Liangsheng, who had been anxiously waiting for several days, looked at the divine thought he had sent, and couldn't help but feel regret in his heart.
It's a pity that the divine thought has been sent, and the magic weapon of the Spirit Sect does not have the function of withdrawing the divine thought, and it is obvious that Nan Liangsheng cannot withdraw the words he said at will.
Nan Liangsheng slowly closed his eyes and took a deep breath, his heart full of self-blame.
But soon, a divine thought came.
She couldn't help but be stunned, and she couldn't react for a while
Soon, after realizing that this was the divine thought from the mysterious person, he couldn't help but feel happy in his heart, and hurriedly began to check the content of the divine thought.
I saw that divine thought turn into words in front of her eyes, and gradually appeared.
[In that case, let's make an appointment with a place to trade]
Seeing this line of words, Nan Liangsheng did not reply first, but hesitated for a moment and then gently spread his palm.
- She plans to divinate the fortune first, and then reply.
Immediately afterward, a bronze Bagua coin floated in the void, the surface of which was engraved with some intricate lines and symbols.
She slowly raised her hand, and the coin rose with it, spinning in the air with a crisp and pleasant sound.
An invisible force led the coin to draw a strange trajectory in mid-air, Nan Liangsheng frowned, his eyes jumped in the rotation of the coin, trying to decipher the ever-changing hexagram.
The coin stalled in the air for a moment, then sank, making a splash and falling into the Spiritual Pool.
Nan Liangsheng's eyes followed, staring at the coin that was gradually precipitating, and only the slight agitation of the air in his ears was caused by the coin falling into the water.
When the coin quieted down at the bottom of the pool, Nan Liangsheng put away his hand with a complicated expression.
The hexagram does not give her guidance, and the blessings and misfortunes depend on her, which means that she needs to make her own decisions next.
She soon changed her mind again, and calculated Xia Qianqing's fate as a result of not trading.
As a result, there are no survivors.
After a moment of hesitation, she finally replied with a divine mind
Where do you want to trade? ใ
ใBianzhou,Guanye Cityใ
This time, the other party replied quickly, which also made Nan Liangsheng breathe a sigh of relief.
Looking at the address given by the other party, she fell into thought.
But he quickly replied
[Okay.] ใ
.....
At the highest point of the Wanbao Merchant Pavilion, there is a hidden attic.
The loft is not large, but everything on display is unique. The four walls of the attic are all made of rare sandalwood, which has a unique texture and exudes a rich woody fragrance, and various maps are hung on the walls, recording the past transactions and current business territory of Wanbao Trading House.
The large table in the middle of the building is carved from a single piece of ancient sacred wood, and the top is polished as smooth as a mirror. On the table are all kinds of reports, reflecting the various businesses and transactions of Wanbao Firm. At the table, a chair carved of mahogany sits the current owner of the Wanbao Trading House.
She sat in a chair, holding her cheeks with one hand, and looking at the report on the table with the other, looking rather lazy.
She was wearing a gorgeous cloud brocade long dress, with a dark red dress embroidered with gold and silver threads, with a unique design and quite extravagant. The hem of the skirt has a delicate moire pattern that complements the gold and silver threads that resemble flowing flames.
Sitting in a large and gorgeous wheelchair made of rosewood behind her, she seemed to be leisurely, her slender fingers gently tapping on the tabletop, making a rhythmic crisp sound, as if she was thinking about something.
The windows are ajar, and you can see the bustling city and the crowded streets in the distance, as if to show the splendor and prosperity of Wanbao Commercial Bank. By the window, an ancient lamp made of bronze swayed in the breeze, illuminating the entire attic.
"Pavilion Master, the person we bought was ambushed."
A secretary in Tsing Yi slammed down the door, anxious voices echoing in the ornate attic. Sunlight streamed through the delicate windows, stretching her shadow across the mahogany floor.
Her eyebrows tightened, beads of sweat rolling down her forehead and spilling onto the dark blue placket. He held an urgent report in his hand, and the handwriting on the paper still carried the scent of freshly soaked ink.
"Which batch? Yunguiguo's, or Liulixian Island's? โ
The woman gently put down the file in her hand, still calm, and did not show too much surprise at this sudden change.
"No, it's from the Guogong Mansion."
The secretary was a little embarrassed, but he still opened his mouth to explain.
"Oh... The man who was sent to trouble the prince of the Kokufu. โ
The woman thought about it, waved her hand, and said:
"It doesn't matter... I've done what I promised, and it doesn't matter to me how it turns out. โ
"But the people we sent were captured alive by the other side."
โ๏ผโ
She frowned, as if she didn't quite understand:
"Why was he captured alive?"
"The prince of the Duke's Mansion did not transfer the guard of the Fifth Realm beside him, but lured the snake out of the hole and set up a plan to ambush our people."
"Why are our people leaking out?"
The woman didn't know that someone had planted eyeliner next to Su Jiming's mansion to attract his attention, but she only felt that her own people had leaked the news.
"I don't know."
The secretary took a deep breath, and then spoke:
"But after he killed the man we bought, he cut off his head and sent it to the branch of the Chamber of Commerce in Bianzhou..."
Hearing this, the woman's face finally showed a stunned expression, and she frowned and thought about it.
After a long time, she asked:
"The prince of the Imperial Mansion is the famous gentleman of the Imperial Kyoto, right?"
"Hmm.."
"Looks like we've overlooked something."
The woman's eyes narrowed a little narrow.
Being able to set up a game to capture the assassin and extract information about the merchant house from it is obviously not something that a fool can do.
Is Wanbao Commercial Bank's intelligence network too backward, or is the other party too well hidden over the years?
She prefers the latter.
"Tell the people over there that the favor I Wanbao Firm owed them before has been gone, don't let me get involved in their affairs anymore..."
"Also... Pay more attention to this Su Shizi. โ
An incomprehensible smile flashed in her eyes.
"Interesting, kind of interesting."
...
And Su Jiming, who was far away in Bianzhou, didn't know that because of his actions, a powerhouse of the Eighth Realm had a strong interest in him.
