Duyun Cave.

It is located in the old division of the city.

Because there are two ancient caves in the north and south two miles away from the east of the city, also known as the Nine Dragon Cave and the Immortal Cave.

And Lao Sicheng is the capital of the Yongshun Dynasty.

Since Tang Tiancheng has been in adulthood, it has ended in the Yongzheng year.

The Peng family has been a hereditary toast for more than 800 years, and it is almost Yongzhen.

Even though the toast has been canceled for two hundred years, the Peng family still has unimaginable influence in Duyundong.

The local Miao and Dong people did not accept Wang Hua and did not respect the royal way, and only recognized the name of the Peng family.

So much so that it is now today.

Duyun Cave has been placed under the jurisdiction of Qianzhong Dao, but the people sent here have no prestige at all.

The strong dragon can't suppress the ground snake.

What's more, the Peng family is at the level of a giant python, not to mention suppressing it, it is already considered a success if it is not counterattacked.

Qianzhong Dao sent several people over in a row.

As a result, without exception, all of them were driven away in ashes, and even took office, and they didn't even step into the city gate.

It is conceivable how amazing the power of the Peng family is.

Eight hundred years of guarding, looking at the upper and lower five thousand years, there is only the Zhou Dynasty that has lasted for nearly 800 years, and it is still the Eastern Zhou and Western Zhou and the Spring and Autumn Warring States.

A toast can be hereditary for nearly a thousand years.

It's unimaginable anywhere.

What's more, this part of southeast Guizhou, since ancient times, has been mountainous and remote, and those natives are not educated, and they don't even know about the change of dynasty.

Every dynasty, every generation, wants to rule here.

can only pinch their noses and let the Peng family continue to be hereditary and control on their behalf, so it has caused the current situation.

Wait for the group to enter the city.

It was already completely dark outside.

On the side of Laosicheng, because it is an important capital town, there have been merchants who have been doing business from the north and south since ancient times.

Han people dressed up like them can also see a lot along the way.

Walking on the road does not make people feel abrupt.

In addition, before he came, Chen Yulou let people do a good job of road guidance.

But......

Even so.

It was still a large sum of money to buy roads, and it was only after entering the city smoothly.

If you want to do business in Lao Sicheng, it's a good fate not to be skinned.

What's more, their group is riding tall horses, wearing long robes, and all of them have extraordinary appearances, which at first glance are very promising.

Although the road guide is written about merchants, everyone knows it.

Chen Yulou was not surprised by this.

Hades is better, but the imps are difficult, and this has been the case since ancient times.

It's just a little money to eliminate disasters, it's better than being targeted, this area is unfamiliar, and it is the capital of Tusi, he doesn't want to be in trouble, and then delay the trip.

Not much.

The man who led the way stopped outside an inn with the group.

A strange high-rise building.

In general, it is the style of the Miao people on stilts, but it is obviously integrated into the style of the Han people.

Even the name of the inn is written in two languages.

"Ladies and gentlemen, are you going to stay in the hotel or stay in the hotel?"

The appearance of such a large horse team outside the inn had already alarmed the shopkeeper.

This will stand in the doorway, and the smile on his face cannot be concealed at all.

"Stay in the hotel."

No need for Chen Yulou to remind.

A leading guy had already stepped forward to negotiate.

"But, shopkeeper, prepare a meal for us first."

"These horses also have to be fed and brushed."

As soon as I heard that it was a hotel, the corners of the shopkeeper's mouth were almost behind my ears.

With so many people, even if they only stay for one night, they can earn a lot of money, and they immediately patted their chests and agreed.

"Of course, of course, it's all part of the story."

"Come, guys, here, please."

The innkeeper led the horse to the backyard to feed, and the shopkeeper personally led the group into the building.

It's going to be dinner time.

There were quite a few people in the hall who spent the night.

Looking at their dress, most of them were peddlers who came and went, and when they saw so many of them coming in, they all looked over with curiosity.

"Guys, are you going up to the second floor or?"

"It's on the first floor."

Chen Yulou walked straight to a table by the window and sat down.

Seeing that he has a graceful bearing, his appearance is dusty, and his every move is full of the breath of a superior person.

The shopkeeper has seen a lot of people.

At a glance, it was clear that he was the one at the helm of the group, and the smile on his face was even worse.

"Okay, just listen to your guests, you see what kind of food you want, not to brag about it, although my restaurant is not big, but the chef is proficient in all kinds of dishes."

"I must let all the guests eat and drink well."

Chen Yulou didn't come here to eat and drink.

"The shopkeeper can just put it on the sign in your store."

"Okay, I'll go and tell the back kitchen."

Hearing this, the shopkeeper was obviously relieved, and for a while, his perception of Chen Yulou also secretly improved countless levels.

On this day, it is said that there are eight major cuisines, but in fact, there are more than eight kinds.

Some people like light, some people don't like meat, some people have light tastes and some people have heavy tastes.

This is the reason why it is difficult to reconcile the so-called many mouths.

Although he said it nicely, he really encountered that kind of harsh guests, and there were times when he had headaches.

Like Chen Yulou, there are only a few who are not embarrassed by him.

"Wait a minute, shopkeeper."

"It's good to let the guy urge, when I first arrived, I want to ask you about a few things, I don't know if it's convenient?"

Seeing that he was about to turn around, Chen Yulou smiled warmly.

“…… This. ”

The shopkeeper was stunned, but he only hesitated for less than half a second, and the person reacted.

A smile welled up on his face again.

Nodding again and again.

"Of course, of course it's convenient."

I saw that he ordered the guy standing behind him, and personally went to get a few plates of appetizers, and brought a pot of good wine over, and then sat down next to Kunlun.

on the table.

Chen Yulou, Partridge Whistle, Ling, Red Girl and Kunlun Five.

In the kung fu of talking before, he had secretly observed.

Chen Yulou seems to be mild, but there is a domineering momentum that cannot be refused between words and deeds.

Most of these people sit in high positions and can only do it by moving qi and nourishing the body.

As for Partridge Whistle, it is very different from him.

The whole body is full of the smell of being close to the living.

In addition, he is dressed as a Taoist, so he is really unsure.

As for the two girls, one is heroic and the other is innocent, both of them are first-class and outstanding.

In Lao Sicheng, how can you see such a beautiful girl.

Not to mention, girls who dare to run on the rivers and lakes in this troubled world don't need to think about it, they either come from a big family, or they have absolute confidence in their skills.

Five people at a table.

Kunlun, a big man, looks a little easier to talk.

"Listen to the shopkeeper's accent coming from outside?"

Seeing that he poured the wine for the group at the table, Chen Yulou was not polite, picked up the wine glass and shook it gently at his mouth and nose.

A mellow aroma of wine suddenly rushed into the nose.

Old wine in the cave.

At least 10 years or more.

Moreover, it is non-toxic.

Walking the rivers and lakes, going out, how can he drink easily with his character.

When he shook through his nose just now, he specially urged Aoki's aura to sense it.

At this moment, he did not hesitate and took a small sip.

While savoring it, one asked the shopkeeper next to him.

"I've been here for almost ten years."

"I didn't think too much about it when I took the family, I just wanted to eat, but I didn't expect it...... It's been so long in the blink of an eye. ”

A flash of memory flashed in the shopkeeper's eyes, and he sighed with emotion.

Listen to this time.

A few people at the table immediately understood that he was most likely to escape the scourge of war, so he would bring people to settle here.

"Distinguished ......"

"Under the surname Chen, the shopkeeper just calls me Mr. Chen."

Seeing him as a distinguished guest, Chen Yulou waved his hand.

The shopkeeper immediately changed his title, pushed the door and asked, "I don't know what Mr. Chen wants to ask, I don't dare to say that everything is clear, but I have heard some of them." ”

"Don't hide it from the shopkeeper, Chen has no intention of coming here, but the businessman naturally can't go home empty-handed, so he wants to inquire with the shopkeeper, and now it's better to make a living in the city."

Of course, Chen Yulou would not ask directly.

Instead, he inquired in a different direction.

"Business ......"

The shopkeeper didn't dare to delve into whether what he said was true or false.

Just a little muttering.

"If you want to make money, it must be nothing more than salt and iron, tea, silk, porcelain, and most of the merchants who come and go to Laosicheng do these."

"But ......"

"Mr. Chen, there is one thing that must not be touched."

The shopkeeper's voice suddenly changed.

"Oh?" Chen Yulou was also interested, and smiled slightly, "I don't know what it is?" ”

Not only him, but also the Partridge Whistle, Ling, and the Red Maiden on the side also looked at him in unison.

Seeing this, the shopkeeper didn't dare to hang their appetites, and lowered his voice.

"Herbs."

"Why?"

Chen Yulou frowned.

83 Chinese network latest address

This answer was something he had not expected.

He didn't know about Qiannan's side, but he still knew about the old Xiongling area.

Those merchants who traveled between Xiangxi and Dongzhai basically sold salt, iron, tea, and especially salt, which could almost be used as currency to circulate.

Salt is used to eat.

Medicinal herbs are used to cure diseases and save people.

It's all indispensable.

The most important thing is that medicinal materials can be seen everywhere in the mountains of Miaojiang, but because they do not understand pharmacology, they have not mastered the science of pharmacy.

Those hundred-year-old yams can only be sold to those merchants at a low price to exchange for finished medicines.

It stands to reason that almost all of the people living in Duyun Cave are Miao and Dong people.

There is a great demand for medicinal herbs.

If you sell it back and forth, it is definitely a profiteering industry.

Why did the shopkeeper remind them not to touch it?

"Mr. Chen, you ......"

Originally, Chen Yulou said that he had just arrived, and to be honest, the shopkeeper didn't take it seriously in his heart, and just thought he was a pretext.

But at the moment, he didn't want to fake.

Only then did he know that the person in front of him was really unfamiliar.

It's just that......

If you don't understand anything, you dare to plunge into Lao Sicheng.

He didn't know whether to say that Chen Yulou's gang was bold or ignorant of the world.

"Let's put it this way."

The shopkeeper glanced around.

See no one is paying attention.

Then he stretched out his hand and pointed to the sky.

"That one is gone, who dares to eat in this territory?"

Which one?

Look at his gestures.

Chen Yulou and the others immediately came to their senses.

That made him silent, cautious to this extent, there was only the Peng family in Lao Sicheng.

It's just that the family that has been in the old Sicheng for 800 years.

Almost no different from the emperor.

This kind of Zhong Ming Ding Food House, the most important thing is silver, and it is guilty of competing with the small people for profit?

Since ancient times, the house of ice cutting has not raised cattle and sheep.

This Peng family is interesting.

It is equivalent to directly cutting off the life path of countless people.

"It shouldn't be, when I get to the identity of that person, I can't see this little money in my eyes......"

Chen Yulou took a sip of the wine glass.

Deliberately showing unbelief.

"Heh, if this had been put ten years ago, I wouldn't have believed it, but the text has already been posted in the city, or if you don't give me a hundred guts, you won't dare to speculate."

The shopkeeper sighed.

He was in Lao Sicheng for ten years.

I know a truth.

That is, no matter what, you can't go against the Peng family.

"Is it ......?"

Hear this.

Chen Yulou couldn't help but have a few thoughts in his heart.

Salt and iron can still be sold, but medicinal materials are banned, which is obviously not right.

There is probably only one possibility.

That is, the Peng family may be playing a big game of chess.

When will the myriad herbs be used?

War, of course.

Thinking of this, Chen Yulou subconsciously glanced at the partridge whistle beside him, he seemed to have thought of this step as well, and the mist in his eyes slowly dissipated.

"I can't say it anymore, now there is a lot of noise in the city, whoever dares to chew his tongue and be heard by the government guards will be thrown into prison at best, and his family will be ruined at worst."

Seeing that Chen Yulou still had the meaning of opening his mouth.

A trace of horror flashed in the shopkeeper's eyes, and he shook his head again and again.

"The shopkeeper is too worried."

"Chen is a businessman and makes money first, how dare he take the risk of killing his head?"

Chen Yulou shook his head and smiled.

Signal the shopkeeper not to panic.

"By the way, shopkeeper, there's one more thing I want to ask."

"As long as it doesn't involve that one...... Mr. Chen said it bluntly. ”

The shopkeeper raised his sleeves, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and said a little helplessly.

"That's nature."

Chen wanted to ask, the road to southern Yunnan...... Does it work? ”

"Southern Yunnan?"

Hearing the name of the place, the shopkeeper immediately hesitated.

Chen Yulou quietly handed over two pieces of silver.

Feeling the cold touch, the shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and then the hesitation instantly dissipated.

"This, Mr. Chen is too polite."

Without any smoke, he put the silver ocean into his sleeve, and the shopkeeper took a deep breath, and then lowered his voice.

"There is a water city white horse cave in the west of Duyun, and there is an family toast sitting in town for a hundred years."

"The two families face each other across the Nanlong River."

"One seedling and one Yi, originally they were still communicating with each other, but since a few years ago, the An family cut off the medicinal materials, which caused the Peng family to be extremely dissatisfied, and now the monopoly of medicinal materials is just fighting."

Sure enough, money can make ghosts grind.

Chen Yulou smiled secretly in his heart.

But his face didn't show much, just listened quietly.

"Mr. Chen, if you really want to go to southern Yunnan, it is best to take a detour, it is said that the junction has been killed and killed, and people often flee to take refuge."

"Okay, thanks for the reminder."

"In addition, if the shopkeeper has something to do, he will be busy first."

Hearing this, the shopkeeper didn't stay long, got up and continued to usher in the send-off.

After watching him return to the counter.

The smile on Chen Yulou's face faded little by little.

Only a hint of solemnity remained.

I have to say.

These two oceans are still worth it.

At least from the shopkeeper's words, I got two important news.

First, it is no longer feasible to go from southern Qiannan to western Yunnan, so you can only take a detour.

Another point.

Nor can they stay long in the old city.

Nearly thirty good horses, placed anywhere is enough to make people's hearts move.

Moreover, now that the war has begun.

For the sake of medicinal materials, the Peng family did not hesitate to end up in person.

Not to mention that they are a group of outsiders, it is absolutely reasonable to attract the Peng family to covet them.

"Listen to me, Kunlun, wait and warn you, and send two brothers to wait on the dock while the others buy ingredients."

"As soon as the people arrive, quickly pull out."

Chen Yulou looked at the few people on the table and said in a low voice.

"Yes, shopkeeper."

Kunlun nodded and immediately received the order.

"Brother Chen, are you worried about the Peng family?"

Partridge Whistle is also an old man who is used to walking the rivers and lakes, and he can figure out the changes as soon as he thinks about it, and he frowned.

"It's not worry, it's certain."

Chen Yulou snorted coldly.

Those so-called toasts, he didn't deal with them.

Green forest mountain bandits, people from the rivers and lakes, anyway, they still talk about a rule and recognize a mountain pass.

But the Tusi Yamen, who sit in various places, are rampant and domineering, and have never had any scruples, in their eyes, human life is not as good as the weeds in the field.

Anyway, after cutting a stubble, there are countless more.

Even these grass mustards can provide them with a steady stream of gold and jade food.

Now even the shopkeeper in Lao Sicheng has heard the rumors, and you can imagine how far the front line has hit.

"The shopkeeper, I'll go over now."

Kunlun hadn't thought too much about it.

At this moment, when he heard the shopkeeper say so seriously, how dare he delay, and immediately got up and walked towards the table not far away.

Chen Yulou didn't stop it.

Follow the speed of the people on the waterway.

At most, it's only two days.

After a while, Kunlun returned with a sense of relief, and the two men left the inn all the way out of the city.

After two days in Lao Sicheng.

Really.

Qi Hu and his entourage, who took the waterway, docked by boat and also entered the Duyun land boundary.

Chen Yulou who received the news.

As soon as possible, he took people out of the inn and went straight to the dock.

It was almost less than half an hour before they left.

The guards of Tusi Mansion, with nearly 100 people, wearing armor and holding guns, surrounded the inn.

The old shopkeeper didn't know what was going on at first.

Until he was brought to the head of the guard.

When asked about Chen Yulou and his party, he suddenly realized that he couldn't betray the original rules of the rivers and lakes.

But under the pressure of the Peng family.

He didn't really have the courage to lie, but he only said that they were out of town.

Wait for the Tusi Mansion Guard to chase him to the dock.

Chen Yulou and his entourage had already gone straight to Bama along Dushan.

Three days later.

The people who made a detour have already taken a big boat and successfully entered the territory of southern Yunnan along the Nanpan River!
