Chapter 456: Contrast

After talking about the matter of Twin Star City, Qin Wen then spoke: "Okay, now that the matter of the Huangfu trade route has been completely resolved, and there will be no monks from the Huangfu Mansion coming here in the future, our caravan will still develop according to the previous settings, Han Shang, you will put all these caravan monks back tomorrow morning, and everything must run as soon as possible." ”

Seeing that Han Shang nodded and agreed, Qin Wen saluted again: "You will be in Lishan Town for the time being, and assist in the training work of Commander Zhao, and you will build this place into a base of our Qin Mansion in the Western Continent, by the way, the teleportation array leading to Twin Star City should also be optimistic, if there is news from Twin Star City, you can let people notify me as soon as possible." ”

"And Sun Da and Xue Lin also stay here, let them help you do a good job in the protection of Lishan Town, remember not to be too publicistic when doing things, we are still an outsider in the Western Continent, we must try to understand the situation here, and further west of the intelligence collection, now is the best opportunity, we must use this opportunity to use the fastest speed to strengthen ourselves." ”

Fang Li nodded, he knew in his heart that Qin Wen handed over Sun Da and Xue Lin to him, clearly saying that it was for protection, but in fact he still didn't let them leave Lishan Town, after all, the struggle between him and the Huang Mansion was far from over, and it could even be said that it had just begun, and he definitely couldn't let people go back and report to Huang Wuye after finding out the details, in that case, the Qin family would be too passive.

After arranging the things here, Qin Wen pondered for a while and continued: "Okay, I'll leave the matter here to you, I have to go back to the City of Expulsion to help Ling Jian inquire about some things, by the way, I want to see how they will deal with the Huangfu after the trade route is blocked this time, maybe after Huang Wuye takes back all the monks on the trade route, he will turn around and deal with us first, and we have to guard against this." ”

Qin Wen's voice just fell. The monks outside reported that Dong Hou and his father had come to the door to meet Qin Wen, Qin Wen waved his hand and asked them to do their own things, and he came to the gate of the courtyard to pick up the Dong family father and son, Qin Wen saw Dong Hou's hesitation. He opened his mouth and asked, "Master Dong, do you have anything to do here?"

Dong Hou hesitated for a moment, turned to look at his father, and the head of the Dong family also said with some embarrassment: "There are indeed some things, you see that although the war outside has not ended now, the situation in Lishan Town is getting better day by day, and there are already many monks who have come here to trade spiritual objects." ”

"The residents of our town used to make a living by opening shops, and they didn't know how to make a living, so originally Qin Danshi's caravan was here. We said that this matter is not appropriate, but the clansmen want to ask, you see, can we be allowed to open some shops for business, and we can also exchange some spirit stones to supplement our lives. ”

Qin Wen was stunned, when he came to Lishan Town this time, he saw that the shops on the street were open, why did the father and son of the Dong family still come to ask him this question, could it be that there was something hidden in it. Just when he saw Fang Li passing by the door, he directly called him in and asked, "Do the shops that are open outside now belong to our caravan?"

Listening to Qin Wen's questioning voice. Fang Li was also stunned for a moment, and Dong Hou hurriedly explained: "Master Qin, that's the case, when there were monks here trading spiritual objects, we didn't have spirit stones and supplies in our hands, so we came to Monk Han. He gave us a part of the supply, and at that time we said that it was jointly managed with the caravan, but now that the monks in the city are moving more and more, it is no longer appropriate to let the caravan provide the goods, so. My father and I took advantage of Qin Ye's presence to discuss. ”

"Qin Ye, this time we can let our people open a few shops alone, as for the houses of those shops that were originally opened, we can give them to the caravan free of charge, to show our gratitude to Qin Ye and Brother Han, originally Qin Ye saved the lives of our clansmen, we should not put forward these conditions, but now some foreign monks can do business on their own, and the clansmen also have some ideas in their hearts. ”

Qin Wen only then understood the thoughts of the Dong family's father and son, and Fang Li also nodded and explained: "Brother Dong Hou is right, we and the Dong family have always shared the income in the shop, and these are recorded in the caravan's account books. ”

Qin Wen nodded slightly and said: "It turns out that this is the case, Fang Li, withdraw our people from the shop today, in the future, we will only be responsible for the protection in Lishan Town, and the caravan is not allowed to open any more shops, as for the spiritual objects traded by the Dong family in the city, they will all be reduced by one percent compared to the spirit stones outside." ”

The head of the Dong family was busy at this time: "Qin Danshi, this can't be helped, Danshi saved our whole clan and my life, we are already grateful, and we also took out spiritual objects to help us trade, if Danshi wants to withdraw the monks in the shop, our whole clan would rather leave this Lishan Town, than do such a shameful and ungrateful thing." ”|

Qin Wen waved his hand and said: "Master Dong, you are too worried, I attach great importance to Lishan Town, so I don't let the store have the shares of the caravan, to tell the truth, our caravan has now spread the goods to more than eighty percent of the countries here, but there are very few shops here, the main reason is that although you earn more spirit stones, but it is not easy to manage, okay, this matter is said so, you can directly hand over the shop tomorrow." ”

After discussing this matter, Qin Wen chatted with the Dong family father and son for a while, and then sent them out of the mansion with Fang Li, and after the Dong family father and son walked away, Fang Li said with some disdain: "How can this Dong family be like this, every time it is the spiritual object we take out, and when it is finally divided with them, they are given six shares, and we only need four copies, and now they come over and ask to open a store by themselves, I think they are not greedy enough." ”

Qin Wen shook his head and said: "Although we have just come here in Lishan Town, we are much stronger than the Dong family, and it is normal for them not to dare to compete with us for profit, in this way, you just do what I say, it doesn't matter if the spirit stone is on, these shops only earn much a year, and it is basically not worth mentioning compared to the caravan." ”

Fang Li nodded and agreed, Qin Wen thought that the matter here had been dealt with, so he arranged for Fang Li to say a few words, and then flew in the direction of Qingshui Town on the spirit boat, and then returned to the Dongcheng Manor of the Expulsion City through the teleportation array.

In his quiet room, Qin Wen asked Lu Mo to call him in, and Qin Wen gave Lu Mo a rough explanation of his trip to Twin Star City this time, and then asked: "Now that the trade route of the Huang Mansion has been blocked, I don't know if there is any movement in the Huang Mansion in the city?"

Lu Mo nodded and said: "Extrapolating from the time, the day before yesterday should be the day when the Huang Mansion learned that the trade route was blocked, some time ago, the Huang family's shops also bought a large number of spiritual objects, and even sent people to explore the trade routes to the Hu people, I think they also want to take the route of our purchase of spiritual objects, and transport the spiritual objects from the Great Qi side to the country of He Blade through here." ”

"The day before yesterday, this kind of procurement suddenly stopped, according to the monk who explored the Huang Mansion, the Huang family had a spirit boat outside the city gate of Xicheng and flew to the teleportation array, which was not usually discovered, as for whether there was Huang Wuye in the spirit boat, because his realm was relatively low, he did not dare to observe it from a close distance, so he was not sure. ”

Qin Wen nodded slightly and said: "Twin Star City will not let the Huang family use the teleportation array this time, Huang Wuye should personally go to investigate the situation, now that Lingdian on the side of Twin Star City has been captured, there is no possibility of resuming the agreement at all, what we have to do now is to prevent the Huang Mansion from concentrating monks to deal with us after the trade route is blocked." ”

Lu Mo thought for a while and said: "Judging from the situation of our recruitment of monks during this time, although there is still a gap between the strength of the Huang Mansion and the Huang Mansion, it is not easy for them to take us down, after all, they still have to guard against the Ji Mansion, I heard that Huang Wuye's investment in the trade route is also relatively large, this time cutting off the trade route should be a relatively big blow to them, if it really doesn't work, we can unite with the Ji family and strike first, Qin Danshi, what do you think?"

Qin Wen pondered for a moment and said, "What I have been most concerned about during this time is the matter of trade routes, I don't know how the situation of the recruitment of monks in our mansion is? ”

Lu Mo opened his mouth at this time and introduced: "Now the city of expulsion has the reputation of our Qin family, and the monthly example is the highest among all the new monks recruited, so the first choice of the new monks here is our Qin Mansion, and I have also made some adjustments to the recruitment of monks, and the realm is now raised to the lower level of the Xuan Master, if it is like a Dan Master, a Formation Master, or the like, the Xuan Disciple can also be considered above the middle level." ”

"After this period of recruitment, there are now fifteen spiritual-level monks in our mansion, including the Zhou family's monks, basically the same as the Huang family in terms of spiritual-level monks, but we still have ten teams of magic circle monks, of course, this does not include the monks sent to the teleportation array, which is absolutely no problem for us to deal with the high-level monks of the Huang Mansion. ”

Seeing Qin Wen nodding slightly, Lu Mo continued: "Now there are more monks in the Xuanshi and Xuanshi realms than them, but the one thing that the Huangfu is stronger than us is that their monks have followed the old monks for hundreds of years, or even nearly a thousand years, and the monks on our side are all newly recruited. ”

"Although some of them have fought side by side with us, but in terms of tacit understanding and loyalty, they still can't be compared with the Huang Mansion, which is why I have been hesitant, so I thought about joining forces with the Ji Mansion, even if we don't want any spiritual objects from the Huang Mansion at that time, as long as we can deal with this hidden danger, it will be worth it.
