Chapter Seventy-One: Non-Staff Personnel in the East Factory (Seeking Collection, Seeking Reading)
Li Xuan looked at the two of them, and arched his hand:
"I've seen Manager Zhang, Gonggong Zhao."
Manager Zhang smiled slightly and said:
"Steward Li, you have been out for a long time, and our family is still worried about what will happen to you on the road."
Li Xuan bowed:
"I did encounter some troubles, so I delayed a little time."
Zhao Hao drank a cup of tea and said with a smile: "Gonggong Li, what is the trouble, you might as well talk about it, Lao Zhang and I are idle and bored." ”
He and Mr. Zhang seemed to be very familiar with each other, and their words were quite casual.
"Steward Li, come, sit down and have a cup of tea, just tell our family about the things outside, our family has never been out of the palace since they entered the cold palace, and they are curious about the things outside."
said.
He got up from the rocking chair and wanted to pick up the teapot and pour tea for Li Xuan.
Li Xuan took a few steps forward with great interest, took the teapot, and filled the tea in the teacups of Manager Zhang and Zhao Hao.
Zhao Hao opened his mouth and said: "Lao Zhang, if you really want to see what it is like outside, you might as well go back to Dongchang, recently, our Dongchang has been trying to encircle and suppress the remnants of the Hellfire Sect, but many people have died, and even the stall head has died, and it is the time when there is a shortage of manpower." ”
"Lao Zhao, we've been friends for almost ten years, you don't know my level, I'm an old bone, and I'm still suitable for retirement in the cold palace." Mr. Zhang waved his hand.
He bought the position of the general manager, but it cost thousands of taels and dredged up a lot of relationships.
Now just with the income on the surface, there are 100 taels a month, how can it be possible to go back to the East Factory to live and die.
What's more, in the near future, he is very likely to be promoted to the chief administrator, and at that time, the salary can reach five hundred taels a month.
A good future is waiting for him, and if he returns to Dongchang, he will be completely out of his mind.
It turns out that this manager Zhang used to work in the East Factory, no wonder he is so good. Li Xuan listened to the conversation between Mr. Zhang and the two, and secretly wondered in his heart.
He had seen Manager Zhang make a move once before, and he estimated that this Manager Zhang had reached the middle stage of the Innate Realm.
Manager Zhang ignored Zhao Hao's solicitation, looked at Li Xuan and said:
"Steward Li, sit down, talk to our family and say, what happened to you when you went out this time."
"Yes."
Li Xuan sat down.
He was worried that he couldn't find the right time to talk about this matter of Black Wind Village, and now was an opportunity.
Present.
Li Xuan told him about his itinerary this time.
It's just that he concealed the matter of going to Chunfeng Tower to deliver the letter, but said that he heard the duel between Qin Kun and Zuo He on the way, and when he saw that Hunting was happy, he went to the scene to watch the duel.
In this way, if someone wants to check him in the future, he can also use this as an excuse to explain why he appeared in Quang Ninh Mansion.
"I also heard about this, I didn't expect you to be there, Gonggong Li, I heard that in the end, the battle evolved into a duel between the Black Wind Village and the knife catcher, and a big conflict broke out, and the onlookers at the scene were all affected, and many people died."
Zhao Hao, as the head of the East Factory, is responsible for supervising the world on behalf of the emperor.
In terms of intelligence, it is naturally not bad.
Twenty days had passed since this duel, and Qin Kun's grave grass was already three meters high, so Zhao Hao naturally had the relevant information.
"Yes, the scene was thrilling, and I was lucky enough to escape." Li Xuan looked palpitating.
In fact, these things are naturally his hearsay.
After all, he already knew Qin Kun's plan at that time, so he didn't join in the excitement, so as not to encounter accidents.
I never thought that in the end, I still ran into Qin Kun, and I can only say that the world is impermanent.
Li Xuan thought for a while, and then spoke: "On the way to escape, I also heard a news, it seems that the Black Wind Village and the people of the Blood Lotus Sect are colluding together, and even the Holy Maiden of the Blood Lotus Sect has appeared, I don't know what they are planning." ”
He didn't dare to say it too explicitly, just vaguely mentioned the Blood Lotus Sect.
After all, this kind of thing is not too secretive, and even the knife catcher organization knows it, and even if it is said, it will not be suspected.
"It's the Blood Lotus Sect again, when we besieged and killed the remnants of the Hellfire Sect before, we also fell into the trap of the Blood Lotus Sect and almost wiped out the whole army, but fortunately, Duke Wei exerted great power and repelled several elders of the Blood Lotus Sect." Zhao Hao heard this and groaned.
Li Xuan showed surprise: "There is such a thing, what is the final result?" ”
During the previous Mid-Autumn Lantern Festival, the elder of the Hellfire Sect, Huo Dove, infiltrated the harem, cast a demon spell, and killed several county lords and Lady Commandment.
This incident also alarmed the emperor, and he specially ordered Wei Jingzhong to be responsible for the matter of purging the remnants of the Hellfire Sect.
It's been more than half a year now, and I don't know what happened.
Zhao Hao showed a look of admiration: "With Duke Wei's move, the remnants of the Hellfire Sect are naturally all ambushed, and even an elder of the Blood Lotus Sect died under Duke Wei, at that time, it was dark and dark, we, the martial artists of the Innate Realm, can only stare at the side, with the strength of Duke Wei, as long as we get a life map, I am afraid that we will be able to promote the Martial Saint immediately!" ”
There was a pause.
He continued: "However, Gonggong Li, this news is somewhat interesting, now this Blood Lotus Sect is stirring up trouble in secret, and I don't know what I want to do, I will report this matter to Duke Wei." ”
When Li Xuan heard this, he didn't say anything more.
The purpose of his mention of this matter is to make Dongchang pay attention to the situation in Taihu Province.
When the time comes, if he really stops the blood sacrifice from happening, he may be rewarded and reap some benefits from it.
"The Blood Lotus Sect has existed in all dynasties, and behind many uprisings, there is the shadow of the Blood Lotus Sect, and I don't know what this group of guys is trying to do." Manager Zhang yawned and looked at Li Xuan, "Manager Li, you go on......"
Li Xuan roughly explained the itinerary after that, but naturally concealed the encounter with Qin Kun.
When I encountered the evil spirit, I didn't hide it, and I added fuel and vinegar to it.
He also said that he was a blessing in disguise, and got some elixirs and a weapon from the demon, and sold them for more than a thousand taels of silver.
The reason why this lie was made up was naturally to give him money to buy a yard and find a legitimate excuse.
In case this Zhao Hao wants to check him later, he also has a reason to explain it clearly.
"Tut-tut, more than a thousand taels, Gonggong Li is also a blessed person." Zhao Hao glanced at Li Xuan with envy.
He didn't care about the money, with his current status and status, he earned more than a thousand taels, that is, only one or two months.
I just sighed that Li Xuan was lucky, he happened to meet the evil demon who was killed by someone, and he also got a benefit from the demon.
Manager Zhang smiled: "With this money, with Steward Li's talent, I'm afraid it won't be long before I can cultivate to the innate realm." ”
"The small one is still far behind, but with this money, the small one bought some pills, and successfully broke through to the Bone Refining Realm." Li Xuan improved his cultivation a little in a timely manner.
Now about half a year has passed since he broke through the strong muscles.
Showing the strength of the Bone Refining Realm will not attract attention.
When Zhao Hao heard this, he couldn't help but say: "Gonggong Li's cultivation progress is really good, it's just a fake way to improve the realm, and you need to improve your combat ability, Gonggong Li really doesn't plan to enter my Dongchang, although the Dongchang is a little dangerous, but the benefits are also real, in case you get Gong Wei's appreciation one day, it is not impossible to soar into the sky." ”
Li Xuan smiled bitterly: "Thanks to Gonggong Zhao's appreciation, it's just that my strength is shallow, and I still hope to stay in the cold palace and help Manager Zhang share his worries." ”
Zhao Hao wanted to say something, but was directly interrupted by Manager Zhang:
"Okay, Lao Zhao, you really have no face and no skin, you can't dig me, you have to dig up the steward under me, right?"
Zhao Hao shook his head: "I just gave Gonggong Li a chance to choose, do you think anyone is willing to be a salted fish like you." ”
He didn't say anything more, got up and looked at Li Xuan:
"Father-in-law Li, the gate of the East Factory is there, you have figured it out, come to me at any time."
"Okay, I've drunk enough tea today, and I've heard enough stories, so I'll take my leave first."
"Father-in-law Zhao walks slowly." Li Xuan also got up to send him off.
Manager Zhang leaned back on the rocking chair and said, "My tea is almost drunk by you, and the next time you come, you can only drink cold water." ”
"You Iron Rooster......"
Zhao Hao complained and turned to leave.
After Zhao Hao leaves.
Li Xuancai took out a bottle of pill from his arms and handed it to Manager Zhang: "This is the Flying Spirit Pill that I bought from the small one, I wish Manager Zhang an early promotion to Grandmaster." ”
"Huh?" Manager Zhang's eyes flashed, he raised his hand to take it, opened the medicine bottle, and a fragrance came out of the bottle.
There was a satisfied look in his eyes, and he smiled: "This Flying Spirit Pill is worth at least four hundred taels, you have a heart." ”
"If Manager Zhang doesn't approve the little one to go home this time, the little one won't be able to get such benefits, and you should be honored." Li Xuan said.
Manager Zhang put away the pill and said: "Since you have a heart, our family will accept it, and Zhao Hao's proposal just now, you can't consider it, with the identity of Dongchang, you don't have to wait a year to leave the palace once in the future." ”
Li Xuan shook his head: "The small ones still like to stay in the cold palace, and the fights and killings outside are really not suitable for the small ones." ”
"What we mean is that these stalls in the East Factory have some non-staff personnel under their hands, and these non-staff personnel in the East Factory, although they do not enjoy the benefits, they can go out to do things as the East Factory, however, every time they borrow the identity of the East Factory, they need to pay fifty taels to the stall head, or help the stall head do one thing, if you don't mind, our family can help you ask Zhao Hao to get a quota." Mr. Zhang got the benefits, but he didn't forget to mention Li Xuan.
What is this, pay to work? However, fifty taels for a chance to get out of the palace is not impossible...... Li Xuan thought for a while and said, "The little one has no plans to leave the palace for the time being, if there is a need, please ask Manager Zhang for help." ”
"It's just a small thing." Manager Zhang waved his hand, "However, now that there is chaos outside, with your strength, if you can not leave the palace, you should try not to leave the palace." ”
"That's what Mr. Zhang said."
Li Xuan stayed with Manager Zhang for a while, and then said goodbye and left.
Then, he went to see his father-in-law Chen again and gave Chen Gonggong a few bone elixirs worth twenty or thirty taels.
Father-in-law Chen naturally accepted it with a smile.
I chatted with Father-in-law Chen for a while and talked about some things after I went out.
Li Xuan found an excuse to leave and went straight to Duanmu Niangniang's palace.
