Chapter 534: The Crisis of the New City Lord
Zhuo San sat down at Jiang Yu's table and told Xiao Baiyi about leaving, which was actually not a secret to the inspectors here. Xiao Baiyi was transferred to another city as the city lord.
"Is it normal for the Shiyue clan to be transferred like this?" Jiang Yu asked, Zhuo San shook his head slightly, and said, "It's not a promotion, it's not a demotion, it's a transfer at the same level...... This is done very rarely. ”
"That'...... Do you know where it came from?" Jiang Yu asked. What Jiang Yu was referring to was naturally the old man.
Zhuo San said: "I don't know the specifics, but there is one point, Brother Jiang should pay attention." Jiang Yu's eyebrows tightened, and Zhuo San said: "He was born in Dongshan Courtyard. ”
Hearing these three words, Jiang Yu immediately understood the greasy in them, in the past three years, Zhuo San has not told him less about Dongshan Courtyard.
In the past, Han Shaonai was killed by Jiang Yu, but he left no traces, Han Shao did not return home for a long time, and there was no news, and the master of the Han courtyard knew that his son might have suffered an accident. The master of the Han Academy sent someone to investigate, and finally found that Han Shao appeared last in Shiyue City under the jurisdiction of Xiao Baiyi. Although he is the master of the courtyard, he is older than Xiao Baiyi, but Xiao Baiyi's superior is not him, so he can't control Xiao Baiyi, and Xiao Baiyi is even more pushy about Han Shao's affairs. The master of the Han Courtyard knew that there was a problem, but he had no way to intervene.
Several years have passed, and now it seems that the master of the Han Academy is active up and down, and finally has a result, inserting his own people into this Shiyue City, this Bai Lao, is what he promoted back then, and he has the love of teachers and students. Now let him come over, obviously let him investigate the matter thoroughly.
And Jiang Yu understood what he said. He said in his heart that this Bai Lao came for himself and Zhuo San, and it seemed that this Shiyue City was afraid that there would be no way to calm down.
"Zhuo San, you have been doing business with my master for three years, why are you still a fifth-level governor, if you reach the fourth level early, you will not be able to be the city lord. Sword Spirit Jade Er said to Zhuo San, because after Jade Er transformed, she has been following Jiang Yu, so she and Zhuo San also know each other, and Zhuo San only thinks she is a little sister, no matter how rude she speaks, Zhuo San doesn't care.
Zhuo San looked at Yu Er and said, "A high level may not be good, I, a fifth-level inspector, have done a good job." ”
Yuer looked at Bai Lao in the distance, then at Zhuo San, and said, "I see that your good days are coming to an end, and that person looks like he is a yin owl inside, and it is not easy to deal with." It's not as easy to talk as City Lord Xiao. ”
"Shhhhhhhhhh ”
"Stay, you are reluctant to be my master, do business with me and the master, you have made a lot of money. Where to find a good customer like my host. This Shiyue City is up and down, and it is estimated that I will envy you to death a long time ago. Jade teased. Zhuo San laughed, his words were arrogant, and said: "Miss Yu'er is right, hahaha! The money is indeed not less, but your master earns no less than me, so let's get rich together, what's wrong." When he said this, someone beckoned in the distance, Zhuo San stood up and said, "Someone over there called me, I'll go first." ”
Jiang Yu nodded and let go, seeing Zhuo San go.
"A guy with a lot of business experience. Yuer looked at Zhuo San's back and said to Jiang Yu.
Jiang Yu shook his head and said, "Not necessarily." ”
"What do you mean, master?" asked Yuer, puzzled. Jiang Yu laughed, but didn't speak. I heard Ling Bo Qingxian also say: "Senior brother, don't sell Guanzi, although I don't know much about this, but I also want to listen to my senior brother's opinions." ”
Jiang Yu nodded slightly and said, "Although Brother Zhuo and I have a business relationship, I think that although he is full of business experience, he is also a person with affection and righteousness. ”
Hearing this, Yu Er said: "If he is a loving and righteous person, why don't you follow the city lord of Xiao, but you have to stay here, isn't it greedy for money." ”
Jiang Yu shook his head and said, "Yuer, you don't understand. ”
"What don't I understand?"
Jiang Yu thought for a moment and said, "What do you think of my relationship with Zhou Heng?"
"That's good. Jade blurted out.
Jiang Yu smiled and said, "Then do you think I might give up kendo because of him?"
When the sword spirit heard this, his eyes flashed, and he said, "What nonsense, how can you do it." ”
Yu'er said this, Jiang Yu and Ling Bo Qingxian both laughed.
"What are you laughing at?" said Yuer, angrily.
Ling Bo Qingxian said to Yuer: "Senior brother's meaning is probably that the pursuit of life is different, this Zhuo San's lifelong pursuit is to pursue profits, that is, to make more money, this is his belief, it is the same as his senior brother seeking a sword, naturally it is impossible to give up his pursuit for his friends." ”
Jiang Yu nodded slightly and said, "Senior sister understands me." ”
Yuer was not convinced, and said: "In the end, there is no profit in pursuing profits." ”
Jiang Yu heard this and said, "In the eyes of the Shiyue clan, there is nothing more promising. How do you know that, in their eyes, the way of the monk is not synonymous with unproductiveness?"
This banquet ended quickly, three days after what Xiao Baiyi said, it was actually just a formal time, and when this banquet ended, Xiao Baiyi actually left. Among the people who sent Xiao Baiyi, the only ones who didn't leave in the end were Jiang Yu and Zhuo San.
"Go back, almost. Xiao Baiyi said to Zhuo San and Jiang Yu quite freely.
"It's okay, anyway, Brother Zhuo and I have nothing to do, so I'll send it to City Lord Xiao. Jiang Yu said with a smile. Xiao Baiyi let out a long sigh, and then suddenly said to Jiang Yu: "Brother Jiang, this new city lord, you have to be careful." ”
Jiang Yu nodded slightly, but didn't say anything else. He knew that Xiao Baiyi was worried about him, and speaking like this actually proved that he and Zhuo San's previous speculations were correct. This white old man is really here for the two of them.
Sent away Xiao Baiyi, Jiang Yu and Zhuo San, and were about to return to Shiyue City, at this time, they saw two people with six or seven people from Ziyun Mansion appearing in front of the two, and the two people led by them were Chu Yan of the Chu family, and now the actual controller of Ziyun Mansion.
"The city lord has an order, please come over to the two of you, and I have something important to ask you. Chu Xiao said this. Jiang Yu smiled faintly, glanced at Zhuo San, and said, "If you can't hold your breath like this, this person shouldn't be so difficult to deal with." ”
"I'm afraid he's prepared, so be careful. Zhuo San reminded, Jiang Yu nodded slightly, he knew it.
The two of them followed the Chu family brothers of Ziyun Mansion and returned to Shiyue City together to meet the new city lord, who was known as Bai Lao.
When Bai Lao saw the two, he was still very polite, and asked people to serve tea and entertain them well. made an amiable appearance, but Jiang Yu knew that most of this person was wrong. Looking for himself and Zhuo San, most of them have another purpose. Sure enough, after a few words, Bai Lao led the topic to the topic he wanted to hear.
"I heard that there was something wrong in the auction three years ago, which had a great impact, and you were both here at the time, what was the matter?" Although Bai Lao pretended to be casual, Jiang Yu and Zhuo San both knew it.
"That's the thing. Zhuo San was the first to speak, he brought the events of the year one by one, in fact, it was something that everyone knew in Shiyue City, and Zhuo San actually understood that these words, for Bai Lao, were just nonsense. But he still said it calmly and calmly, and said about Han Shao, and deliberately focused on it, saying that he was the son of the master of the Han Academy, how noble his identity was, his face did not change and his heart did not beat, and his acting skills were superb.
Bai Lao looked at the two of them and asked, "But I heard that this Han Shao, after being released by Xiao Baiyi, there has been no news again, is this the case, have you two heard of it?"
When Bai Lao asked this, he looked at Jiang Yu and Zhuo San, and at this time, Jiang Yu also realized that the pro-soldiers and guards brought by Bai Lao outside the door had already unsheathed their swords!
