Chapter 208: The Young City Lord Loves Money

On the street outside the Shangguan Treasure House, after Bai Qi chased him out of the Shangguan Treasure House, the three men in black had disappeared into the vast sea of people.

However, Bai Qi did not choose to continue chasing, because he felt that the strength of those three people was not weak, and it could even be said that it was very strong, and if he followed behind them with Situ Ling, it was difficult to guarantee that he would not be discovered.

Thinking of the man's face just now, a trace of murderous intent slowly appeared in his white eyes.

Three years ago, when Ning Xiaoxue escorted him to Yaoguang Kingdom, he was arrested, and the person who captured Bai Qi was the one who walked in the middle of the three men in black just now.

At that time, Ning Xiaoxue was even injured in order to save him.

Bai Qi smiled coldly.

What a coincidence!

"Senior Brother Bai, what's wrong?" Situ Ling came to Bai and got up.

"It's nothing, I met an old acquaintance, but unfortunately he didn't recognize me. Bai smiled kindly.

Hearing this answer, Situ Ling couldn't help but roll his eyes.

If she believed that there were ghosts, the eyes of her old acquaintances would be full of murderous intent? Shouldn't they be full of tears?

At this moment, the crowd in front of Bai Qi suddenly stirred.

The crowd that originally filled the street seemed to be divided by a sharp blade, and people consciously retreated to both sides of the street, as if to make way for the big guys.

Even the five Bai Qi people followed these passers-by and retreated to the steps of the gate of Shangguan's treasure house, looking curiously at the end of the street.

It didn't take long for a group of uniformly dressed people to appear at the end of the street and slowly walk towards this direction.

At the front of the line was a young man on horseback, about twenty years old.

Behind this young man, followed by several middle-aged men, judging by the swaggering expressions on their faces, these people should be the young man's entourage.

When necessary, he can also act as a thug.

Bai Qi counted carefully, plus the young man led by him, there were a total of ten people in this group.

But after seeing what this group of people were wearing, Bai Qi couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, feeling a little surprised in his heart.

The group of people were all dressed in black brocade, and on the left chest, there was also a 'dark' word embroidered with gold silk thread.

The clothes of this group of people are the signature costumes of the Dark Temple!

Bai Qi narrowed his eyes.

In other words, this group of people is the people of the Dark Temple.

To Bai Qi's surprise, this group of people from the Dark Temple finally stopped outside the gate of Shangguan's treasure house.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way, get out of the way!"

Before the young man on horseback could dismount, the entourage behind him walked up the steps, pushed and shoved the five Bai Qi, and directly pushed the five Bai Qi to the side.

Bai Qi was pushed aside by these people in the dark hall, and he didn't get angry, just stood there as if nothing had happened, as if nothing had happened.

Young City Lord?

Bai Qi looked at the young man on horseback in surprise, at first he thought that this group of people was from the Dark Temple, but who would have thought that this group of people turned out to be people from the City Lord's Mansion.

Looking at the young man who had just gotten off the horse, doubts appeared in Bai Qi's eyes.

When did the City Lord's Mansion wear the same clothes as the people in the Dark Temple?

After the young city lord dismounted, he looked at the onlookers around him, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, revealing a faint smile.

He loved the feeling of being awe-inspired.

After tidying up his clothes, the so-called young city lord took a step and walked towards the gate of Shangguan's treasure house.

When he walked up the steps outside the gate, the shopkeeper of Shangguan's treasure vault that Bai Qi had seen before had already walked out of the treasure house, with a smile on his face.

It's just that Bai Qi carefully found that the smile of this shopkeeper is not a smile from the heart.

The smile on his face was stiff, and he even gave people a sense of caution, as if he was afraid of doing something wrong or saying the wrong thing.

In addition, Bai Qi also caught a trace of hatred in the shopkeeper's eyes.

Bai Qi pinched his chin with his hand.

He felt as if he understood, and when he asked the shopkeeper about the Dark Temple, why he had that attitude.

"Young City Lord!" the shopkeeper arched his hand towards the Young City Lord.

"Shangguan Su, business is good today. The young city lord laughed and said, "Well, there are quite a lot of people. ”

The young city lord laughed. Shangguan Su smiled awkwardly.

For this young city lord named Zhong Qian, Shangguan Su Ke knew his style of acting, and on the surface, this young city lord was just saying that he had a lot of people here and good business.

But in fact, he was expressing his dissatisfaction, because after the five Bai Qi people saw him coming just now, they didn't take the initiative to give way, and stood there stupidly, blocking his way.

Everyone in Tianyu City knows that what this young city lord hates the most is that someone is blocking his way!

Shangguan Su still remembered that a year ago, when he first came to Dark Universe City, this favorite Qian came to Shangguan's treasury once, and he was engaged in an event at that time, and the door of the treasure house was full of people, blocking his way into Shangguan's treasury.

After seeing this scene, Zhong Aiqian just looked at Shangguan Su deeply, turned around and left without saying anything.

At that time, Shangguan Su didn't care.

What he thought at the time was that after all, he was just a young city lord, and he didn't need his Shangguan family to stammer.

But who knew that the next day, a letter came from the City Lord's Mansion, to the effect that Shangguan Su had a choice, either to move Shangguan's treasure house out of Dark Universe City within three days, or to give Dark Universe City a percentage of the benefits!

After reading the letter, Shangguan Su directly tore the letter to shreds.

For the content written in the letter, Shangguan Su didn't pay attention to it at all, he didn't believe that this Dark Universe City City Lord's Mansion really dared to touch Shangguan's treasure house!

Indeed, the current Shangguan Treasury is really not an existence that anyone can mess with, after all, behind the Shangguan Treasure House, there are two behemoths of the Martial God Temple and the Divine Dragon Sect.

The City Lord's Mansion naturally knows this.

Of course, it's not stupid to love money, since you can't touch your Shangguan treasury, then use the city guards to surround the Shangguan treasury, so that you can't do business!

This move of loving money simply made Shangguan Su bitter and unspeakable.

He came to Dark Universe City to take over as the shopkeeper this time, in order to prepare for the future election of the head of the district, if the better the results during his tenure, then the greater the advantage of running for the head of the area in the future.

It was precisely for this reason that Shangguan Su did not dare to report this matter to the family, and in desperation, he had to agree to the request of Zhong Aiqian and give the city lord's mansion a percentage of the income.

But when he relented and agreed and took the initiative to sue for peace, he loved money but didn't agree, he thought that one percent was too little and asked for two percent!

Although Shangguan Su was very angry and aggrieved in his heart, he could only agree. There is no way, Shangguan Su's lifeblood is held by Zhong Aiqian, and he has to agree if he doesn't agree.
