"We must have enough food and daily necessities for these hundreds of thousands of people for half a year. Standing at the head of Qingdai City, looking at the camp tent that stretched for more than ten miles outside the city, Yunzhong said in a deep voice.

Fei Na replied beside her: "A message has been sent to Chu Duoqing, the first batch of grain is on the way from Xindu to here, but it is only enough for a month, and the rest is being raised by Lingbao Pavilion." ”

Yunzhong said in a low voice: "Let Mei'er go to Zhenbei City, go to some wealthy businessmen over there, we still can't trust Lingbao Pavilion too much, after all, it is a merchant of Datang, and now Datang and Dashang have a close relationship, but no one can tell between countries." ”

Fei Na smiled: "The beautiful store manager named Sijun came to you not long ago, and learned that you went out, but he was very disappointed, and left a message, saying that he would go to the capital to find her when he was free, and he had important matters to discuss." ”

Yunzhong frowned: "Did she say what happened?"

"No, but it looks eager. ”

Yun Zhong took a long breath: "Accompany me to Xindu City in two days." ”

"The slaves that Lingbao Pavilion bought for us have all arrived at the side of Xiaomo Mountain in Xindu City, and there are 15,000 people, including 6,000 men and 9,000 women, all of whom are young and middle-aged people bought from the Tu Shan clan. ”

"Let's stay there for the time being, buy as much land as we can, and in a year we will be able to feed ourselves. Yun Zhong thought for a moment and added, "Now we have hundreds of thousands of people under our command, let Mu Ying select all the alchemists and refiners among them, Qingdai City is rich in resources, which can be used, or it will be an important source of wealth." ”

After dealing with a bunch of affairs, Yun Zhong put his hand on his forehead: "These mundane things are really nerve-wracking, no wonder those who have become immortals have escaped into seclusion, and they can't come out until the soldiers are pressed." ”

looked at Fina and said, "In the future, you should also try to leave these things to Mei'er and them to do, and focus more on cultivation." ”

Fei Na smiled: "I'm not a super strong bloodline like Ling'er, nor am I as talented as Mo Li, it's normal to not be able to keep up with your pace, so I'll help you deal with some chores." ”

Yunzhong was stunned, and was about to say something more, Fei Namei looked at him: "Mo Li did not hesitate to take risks for you, you should accompany her well these days." ”

The clouds were speechless, and at this time there was a sound of footsteps, but it was Lan Yu, seeing this scene, standing there, not knowing whether to come forward or not.

Yun Zhong couldn't cry or laugh, and looked at Lan Yu: "What's the matter?"

Fena smiled and turned to leave.

Lan Yu stepped forward and said, "Sir, there is a strong man, who is now in the City Lord's Mansion, and I want to see you." ”

Yunzhong smiled: "You have to take a fancy to it, it shouldn't be a simple person, let's talk about it." ”

Lan Yu said: "It seems that he is here to defect to the lord, but that cultivation is extremely high." ”

Yunzhong frowned slightly, now the Flying Fox Group can be called a master like a cloud, there are six heaven-level masters alone, among which there is an Ashur who is a heaven-level four-tier heaven, and the others, Mo Li and Wei Ling are two-tier heavens, Mu Ying, Lan Yu, and Yunzhong are three heaven-level one-tier heavens, and Lan Yu calls this person's cultivation extremely high, which seems to be extraordinary.

Without asking any more questions at the moment, he hurried back to the City Lord's Mansion with Lan Yu, only to see a big man standing proudly in the council hall.

It was the middle of winter, and Qingdaicheng was in a cold place, but this big man was only wearing a thin shirt, and his arms were open, revealing his hairy chest, a short hair like a steel needle, a dark face, but his face was quite handsome, and he was only twenty-eight or nineteen years old.

What made Yun Zhong's eyes squint slightly was this person's cultivation: a genuine peak of the Heavenly Rank!

Seeing Yun Zhongren enter the council hall, a smile appeared on the big man's face, which was as bright as the sun, which was very comfortable.

"Are you Lord Yun?" Dahan stepped forward and said to Yunzhong, "My name is Gan Ning, and I was originally a water thief in Jingzhou, but now I have changed my ways, and I want to kill the enemy on the battlefield to serve the country, so I came to Black Mountain County to join the army." At the Leopard Water City, I met my old friend Jiang Qin, and he told me that Lord Yun was a man who could fight, and he didn't need to be as disciplined in the mercenary group as he was in the regular army, so I came over. ”

It turned out to be Jiang Qin's friend, Yun Zhong had heard Jiang Qin say that he had been the leader of the water thieves in Jingzhou when he was young, and later abandoned the darkness and defected to General Ziyu with his sworn brother Zhou Tai, it seems that this Gan Ning is their former companion, but this Gan Ning's cultivation is much stronger than Jiang Qin.

Yun Zhong said with a smile: "Since it is General Jiang Qin's recommendation, I will naturally raise my hands to welcome, Lan Yu, quickly let Mei'er prepare a banquet and welcome Brother Gan Ning to join." ”

Gan Ning was overjoyed, but said to Yunzhong with some embarrassment: "I still have three hundred athletes, all of whom were brothers who used to do business with me without capital, and now they want to abandon the darkness and turn to the light together, and hope that the lord will take them in." ”

Yun Zhong smiled: "A good man like Brother Gan is as good as possible. ”

At the time of the banquet in the evening, Gan Ning improvised a few martial arts competitions with Yunzhong, and the two competed in the garden of the City Lord's Mansion. ”

After the dinner, Yun Zhong returned to his bedroom, as soon as he opened the door, a pair of jade arms were wrapped around his neck, he smiled and lowered his head, kissed Mo Li's delicate forehead, and then picked up the beauty in his arms and put it on the jade bed.

After dying and lingering, the clouds dispersed and the rain fell, and Yun Zhong pillowed one arm behind his head, leaning on the jade bed, and Mo Li snuggled in his arms.

"That's good. Mo Li gently stroked Yunzhong's face and said softly.

Yun Zhong smiled: "What's so good?"

"It's okay, I don't want to go back to Datang. ”

"Then stay with me and don't go back. ”

"Good. Mo Li leaned his head on his heart, as if to hear his heart clearly.

"Mo Li, when will we get married. Yunzhong gently stroked the woman's soft hair and said.

Mo Li's naked delicate body trembled slightly, raised his head, his eyes were blurry, and his cheeks were red from excitement, but then he shook his head: "You can't marry me, at least, you can't marry me, it's okay to take a concubine." ”

Yunzhong frowned: "Why?" and then chuckled: "You don't have to pretend to be generous in front of me." ”

Mo Li's face was a little gloomy: "What kind of generosity, of course I hope you can marry me and be with me for the rest of your life, but I know very well that I don't have the ability to follow you for a long time, and Sister Na and Ling'er are the same, otherwise I'm with you, and it's strange if they don't knock the vinegar jar over my face." ”

showed a helpless smile: "In front of feelings, any woman is selfish, but this love, I can't catch it, I am twenty-five years old this year, at the beginning of the Heavenly Stage, maybe with the support of your massive resources, you can achieve the peak of the Heavenly Rank in two or three years, but if you want to enter the Immortal Level, I am afraid that you may not be able to, even if you can, I am afraid that it will take at least thirty or forty years, what will you be at that time? True Immortal, or Golden Immortal? Look at me who is already seventy or eighty, how can I still be a husband and wife?"

In Yunzhong's eyes, a wisp of confusion flashed, and then it was replaced by firmness: "Don't be stupid, I will find a way, we will definitely be able to go to the end together." ”

Mo Li lightly pressed his index finger against his lips, with a bright smile on his face: "Let's talk about it when you find a way, now, let me enjoy every moment by your side." ”

Yun Zhong wanted to say something, but his mouth was blocked by fiery red lips, and the bedroom was filled with spring again.

Only about four or five days after the comfortable days in Qingdai City, Yunzhong received a message from the Pingbei general Ziyu, ordering him to go to Qinglu City to discuss important matters.

Just as he was about to leave, he saw another guest in the clouds.

"Miss Sijun, I have already received a message and am preparing to go to Xindu City to visit me in the near future, but I didn't expect you to come first. Yun Zhong looked at the female store manager of Lingbao Pavilion in front of him, a slight headache, and he was also quite apologetic, he originally wanted to take time to write to the capital after receiving the message, but after a series of things, he forgot it completely.

"After Sijun learned from Mr. Chu Duoqing that Lord Yun had returned, he didn't dare to delay and immediately set off. Sijun bent down and saluted, looking pitiful.

Yun Zhong couldn't help but shudder and asked, "I don't know if Miss Sijun has been invited several times, so what's the matter?"

Sijun straightened the clothes on his chest and said in a coquettish voice: "It's really a little hard to talk about. ”

looked up at Yunzhong, and then said with an embarrassed face: "Don't hide it, Sijun is the granddaughter of Chen Changsheng, one of the four major shareholders of Lingbao Pavilion. ”

Yunzhong already knew, but he still pretended to be surprised: "It turns out that Miss Sijun is a famous family, so she is really snubbed!"

Sijun said: "Lord Hugh wants to make fun of me, my grandfather is indeed the largest shareholder of Lingbao Pavilion, and he is also the richest man in the Tang Dynasty, and he is also a master of the immortal rank, but Sijun is the daughter of his grandfather's illegitimate son, after his grandfather broke through the immortal rank, he didn't want to care about the worldly affairs anymore, so he remembered my father and took my father and daughter back to Tongye City, trying to train my father to be his successor in business, but I didn't want this move to bring disaster to my father." ”

Speaking of this, Sijun's voice was a little choked, which was completely different from her usual meaty voice.

"Three years ago, my father was assassinated, and the murderer has not been found, but everyone can imagine that it was the other three shareholders of Lingbao Pavilion. Those three people have deep roots in the Tang Tree, and Rao is my grandfather is already an immortal master, and it is inconvenient to directly eradicate them. Sijun was not only saddened by his father's untimely death, but also afraid that he would repeat the mistakes of the past, and two years ago, he proposed to his grandfather to develop the business of Lingbao Pavilion abroad in Datang. ”

Yunzhong said: "Miss Sijun didn't think about revenge?"

Sijun said sadly: "Even my grandfather is a rat bogey, let alone Sijun?"

He continued: "Recently, those three shareholders questioned our Chen family's development strategy outside of Datang in Lingbao Pavilion, thinking that we were wasting money in vain, while my grandfather argued with reason, and used our development in Dashang Youzhou as an example, saying that our cooperation with a great Heavenly Rank Alchemist in Menghe County, Youzhou, brought us huge profits. ”

Yun Zhong touched his nose, as if that great Heavenly Rank Alchemist was talking about him?

Qi Shijie, one of the three shareholders, proposed that there are also heaven-level alchemists who also cooperate in Datang, so there is no need to go far and near. ”

Sijun looked up at Yunzhong and said with some hesitation: "In the end, Qi Shijie forced my grandfather with words, and the three shareholders will each find a heaven-level alchemist to conduct an alchemy competition with you, and the time will be set for August 15, half a year later." ”

Yunzhong shrugged his shoulders: "August 15 is a good day, but the war between Dashang and Rakshasa is at a critical juncture, and I may not be able to leave Youzhou." ”

Sijun said: "My grandfather also proposed this, so the location of Dou Dan was chosen in Xindu City. ”

Yunzhong smiled: "Then there will be no problem." ”

Sijun was overjoyed: "The lord agreed?"

Yun Zhong said: "That's nature, who made us allies." ”
