Chapter 341: Luo Chuan Transaction
Jiang Feng returned to Luochuan and did not move the people, but the breath of the prefecture level only needs to be slightly released, and it has been known to everyone in Luochuan, and the law enforcement elder Wang Xiandao and the general affairs elder Zheng Luda are the first to welcome them, seeing that Jiang Feng has cultivated to a higher realm, the two of them are both happy and worried, and the Qianshan Sect, which has been in charge for several generations, has not reached this realm.
After greeting for a long time, Jiang Feng agreed to Zheng Luda's request to open a small meeting on Taoism and explain the experience of promotion, but everything was troublesome, so he set the time for seven days later, and then made arrangements after meeting with Leng Tingtao in Tuqiao Town.
"Now that Zheng Yiyu and Wang Yanzhi have been promoted to the Xuan level, arrange a small meeting as soon as possible, and the spirit-level disciples in the sect must participate. ”
"Yes, sir, I will make arrangements with the Department of Etiquette. Zheng Luda took the initiative to take over this job, the two Xuan-level juniors are him and Wang Xiandao's juniors, and it is an honor to be promoted to the Xuan-level, so he is naturally happy to arrange this matter, "However, the head of your Dao meeting, shouldn't you also let all the Xuan-level monks in the sect participate, so that they can enter the realm?"
"It's okay," although I want to keep a low profile, after all, it is to borrow Dan to improve, and it is the lowest grade of Jindan, but the experience of establishing Dan in advance, accumulating experience, and maintaining the clear Dao heart can still be shared with everyone, Jiang Feng also has the idea of helping the children in the sect in his heart, so he did not refuse, "Be cautious, pay attention to confidentiality in time, and don't spread, especially the four counties, don't be empty because of this, and be exploited, although there has been a truce in the territory of the Seven Alliances, it is also not possible to keep some small people in chaos." ”
"Yes, this is natural, I and Spiegel will coordinate everything, and the head of the house can rest assured. "Ensuring safety is the responsibility of law enforcement elder Wang Xiandao and Ming Spiegel, and he also took the first step to say that he would handle the matter.
"That's very good. ”
The two of them expressed their determination and attitude one after another, Jiang Feng didn't say more, and the two of them fell into the clouds one after another, and returned to their respective homes, accompanied by Jiang Hai and Wang Yi, Jiang Feng entered the inner mansion of the head of the house, and saw the "lady" Su Jin for the first time.
Compared with the last time, Su Jin seems to have lost a little, and his already thin and tall body is even more outstanding.
"The boss has worked hard all the way. In front of everyone, Su Jin was cautious, thoughtful and dignified, and did not have a domineering and casual attitude when he was in the Jincheng faction.
"Are they properly arranged?" Jiang Feng responded with a smile and turned his head to look at Wang Yi and Jiang Hai.
"Deacon Wang and Steward Jiang have arranged everything, and the concubine is very satisfied. Although he was left out in the Rolling Shutter Division, Su Jin didn't think that there would be any good results in suing here.
"That's good, have you been to the six divisions?"
"Back to the master, except for the Department of Etiquette and the Department of Rolling Blinds, I haven't been there yet. Su Jin replied timidly, his disguised appearance was more like a docile lamb, if Jiang Feng hadn't learned beforehand, he would probably have been deceived by her.
"Jiang Hai, Wang Yi, you take your wife to see, the situation, personnel, and environment of each department are all introduced, so as to be meticulous and thorough. ”
"Yes!" The two of them had an order, led the way, and took Su Jin and the two accompanying maids away, Jiang Feng saw Su Jin looking back, so he nodded casually in response, and waved her hand to signal her to do what she arranged. After everyone left, Jiang Feng entered the secret room alone, but unexpectedly, there was no report recently, and he was idle for a while. The reason why he asked Su Jin to inspect the Sixth Division was actually to announce to everyone that this was indeed the genuine lady he had married back from the Jincheng faction, and he should maintain respect for him, which was a demonstration and a prerequisite for the preset plan in his heart.
It's just that it seems to sacrifice his own happiness.
Jiang Feng sighed, recalling Yi's tall back, it wasn't too much of a loss. Taking advantage of the gap between Su Jin going to inspect the Sixth Division, he sent his little servant Zhang Yang to call Shangguan Boliang, who had just turned back to Luochuan.
"Brother Bo Liang, how is it, are you satisfied with what I have done?" Seeing that his face was slightly haggard, Jiang Feng asked about Wanqing, although he didn't mention it directly, Jiang Feng knew that the other party understood what he meant.
"Thank you Master Jiang for your help. He didn't have much surprise at Jiang Feng's cultivation improvement, he had seen a lot of ground-level monks, and he was already in chaos, "I've seen it in the evening, things are people, it's difficult to go back to the past, I already want to go through it, and I won't be burdened by this matter anymore." ”
"Look ahead. Jiang Feng couldn't find the right words to respond, so he only said that since he had fulfilled his promise, the labor cost of the other party to help build the small spirit vein could be saved a lot according to the agreement.
"The small spirit veins in various places have been built, and I will go back to Zhenwu City first to arrange trivial matters, and I can turn around in a few days, and I hope that the head of Jiang can find someone to cooperate and help allocate that piece of land." ”
"This is natural, you can find Ding Baozhen of the Construction Service Division when the time comes, and I will talk to him. ”
"Thank you!" Shangguan Boliang hugged his fists, the cost of thirty third-order weapons, including that batch of flying magic weapons, was originally agreed to be repaid next year, so he didn't mention it, but he was a trustworthy person.
Sent away to Guan Boliang, Jiang Feng checked all kinds of documents reported by the six subordinate divisions, and did not find anything major wrong, and secretly thought that these people were doing things, which was quite reassuring, and then remembered Zheng Yiyu's report before.
Zheng Yiyu's report was received in Beimu County, and it contained two things: one was that Qiu Zhenzhen did not report his safety as promised, and the informant in Lelin City also cut off contact, Xu was arrested, and he might even be worried about his life; second, Wu Tiande was suspected of discovering the traces of Zhong Shan, a Xuan-level monk who had fled abroad, the city lord of Ningta City, and the head of the Zhong family.
For these two items, Jiang Feng originally felt nothing
related, but think about it carefully, Qiu Zhenzhen had helped the Zhong family pass on information before, and because he promised the business of Tuqiao Town, he handed it over to the Zhong family to do, that is to say, these two things may be somewhat related, and it can even be said that it may be caused by the same thing, that is, Lelin City Lord Leng Tingtao, that is, the current head of Lelin Gate, began to clean up the potential risks in the sect, and Qiu Zhenzhen was the first to be arrested, Xu had already exposed his whereabouts before, and Zhong Shan, most of the time, was frightened and left, speaking of which he was Leng Tingtao's brother-in-law, he should not have to worry about his life, and fled in fear, from this point of view, he is not a person who wants to live under the people for a long time, Xu is with the idea of "re-establishing the sect".
How could it be so easy? Jiang Feng couldn't help but muttered to himself in his heart.
The question is, what does Leng Tingtao want to do, since he has already locked Qiu Zhenzhen's identity as an undercover agent, Xu knows her situation - his wife, so what is his intention when he asked him to meet in Tuqiao Town before? What conditions did Qiu Zhenzhen exchange with me, or was it just a courtesy deterrent to himself, or both?
Jiang Feng didn't think about this matter clearly when he was in Beimu County, and now that he is back in Luochuan, he still hasn't thought it through. However, this did not prevent him from making a decision in advance, ordering Zheng Yiyu to follow up quickly, and cooperate with the people of Donghu County in the south, as well as the Xuan-level monks in the sect who could contact him in time, to capture Zhongshan as soon as possible.
This is an operation that tests Spiegel's ability to react quickly.
When Jiang Feng returned to Luochuan, he had already learned from the law enforcement elder Wang Xiandao that Wu Quanzhong, the elder of foreign affairs, Wei Ruoguang, the elder of the sect who had just returned to the sect, Wang Yanzhi, the newly promoted Xuan-level monk, and Zhao Yunlei, the Xuan-level monk brought by Su Jin, and Lu Tianming had already set off, and they were much more indifferent in their hearts, knowing that this matter would be successful.
This Su Jin is sensible, and he did not prevent his subordinates from participating in the round-up organized by Zheng Yiyu, and it seems that he is also inclined to win-win cooperation in his heart, which is also the reason why Jiang Feng released his sincerity for the first time and asked him to inspect the Sixth Division to correct his identity.
Releasing sincerity from each other is a necessary warm-up for the deal.
Thinking of this, he immediately understood the reason for Leng Tingtao's move, but he expressed his sincerity and adopted another means. In other words, Qiu Zhenzhen will most likely not have an accident, but he also needs to express the "sincerity" of cooperation, the question is, what can he come up with?
Zhong Shan's life?
No, Jiang Feng immediately denied this first idea that came to mind, this person who can bring some trouble to Leng Tingtao and even Su Liqing, it is better to stay, but it depends on whether Zhong Shan can catch it, and the sincerity he shows. In the storage bag, there is something that is of some use to Leng Tingtao, and may be used as an alternative.
Just thinking about it, his inspiration moved slightly, and he took out the "Thousand Miles Yin-Yang Mirror", just a few words appeared on it, Jiang Feng took out the manual to compare, and the meaning of the words was already clear:
"Man has been caught, but no one has been harmed"
Good!
Jiang Feng took a deep breath, then went out of the inner mansion of the head of the house, and inspected for a while, until the sun was tilted, and he saw several people flying from the south in the clouds, and the leaders were Wei Ruoguang, the elder of the Gonggong, and Zheng Yiyu, the deacon of the Spiegel Division, and there were a lot of streamers behind him, and he soon found three strangers, but from the perspective of cultivation and complexion, the two should be Zhao Yunlei and Lu Tianming brought by Su Jin, and the other monk's spiritual power was obviously limited, and several spirit talismans were pasted on his body, and it was Zhong Shan, the city lord of Ningta City who had not yet met.
Jiang Feng smiled, the coercion of the prefecture level was undoubtedly revealed, which made many Xuan Rank in the door change color, everyone saluted, Jiang Feng ordered Wu Quanzhong to rest with everyone, leaving Wei Ruoguang and Zheng Yiyu alone, and brought Zhong Shan, who had a cold face, to the Wind and Rain Tower.
"Rare guest!"
"Master Jiang, is this your way of hospitality?" Zhong Shan had a bad attitude, not long after he traveled south from Tuqiao Town, he fell into the encirclement of five Xuan-level monks and nine spirit-level monks, and had to be captured.
"This is what Leng Tingtao meant, I think the Zhong City Lord is wrong to blame me. Leng Tingtao was not at the scene, so Jiang Feng directly used him as an excuse, and he wouldn't ask, and Jiang Feng also wanted to judge the relationship between the two to what extent.
"Lend your hand?" Zhong Shan did not have the slightest surprise on his face.
"I don't say it explicitly, but I understand. Jiang Feng gave a plausible answer.
"Make a deal and let me go. ”
"Do you have anything you haven't carried with you?"
"Not really, but there are some things that I have to explain before they are valuable. ”
"Refreshing!" Jiang Feng didn't want to talk nonsense with him, in fact, the arrest of Zhong Shan originally wanted to make a deal with Leng Tingtao, but now that he has figured it out, it is better to keep the person. He motioned to Wei Ruoguang, who was standing on the side, who tore off the spirit sealing talisman, but still looked at Zhong Shan vigilantly, worried that he would escape halfway.
"Don't worry," Zhong Shan turned his head to look at him, his face was angry but he didn't dare to provoke, presumably in the process of arrest, he suffered some secret losses from Wei Ruoguang, "I believe that Master Jiang is not a person who goes back on his word." ”
"It depends on your sincerity. ”
Jiang Feng would not make any guarantees because of his words. In addition to the cooperation reached before, the two have no friendship, and now that he has left Ningta City, the originally negotiated cooperation cannot continue, if he still wants to keep the trade routes in Ningta City unblocked, Jiang Feng can only choose Leng Tingtao as the new cooperation object.
Zhong Shan did not refute, but took out a piece of yellow brocade cloth fragment from the storage bag, and sketched on it, which seemed to be a remnant picture, "This is a treasure map of the Immortal Cave Mansion, a treasure inherited from the head of Yanqiling, Zhong Jun has always taken him."
Placed in the depths of the Great Library, when the sect was broken, I got it by chance. ”
Jiang Feng said in his heart, "What an accident", presumably the other party took advantage of the chaos of the sect and ransacked the big library, stretched out his hand to take a picture of the remnant, unfolded it, sketched and painted, saying that it was a cave, but it was more like a detailed map of a secret passage, and some of it was missing, "Do you know where this cave is?"
"I don't know, or I'd have gone early. ”
"I can't trust you. Jiang Feng put away the remnant of the brocade cloth, "This is just a remnant diagram, and besides, the Immortal Cave Mansion and the like, maybe I can't touch it if I cultivate it." ”
"This ......" Zhong Shan was stunned, and said in his heart Since you don't approve of it, then what can you do if you put it away.
"Now that you have entered the big treasury, is the canonization document of Yanqiling in your hands?"
Zhong Shan's face sank and explained, "Originally, yes, but it has been dedicated to Su Liqing." He said nonsense, thinking to himself in his heart, with the relationship between Jiang Feng and Su Liqing, there was no way to confirm it personally.
"Then trade other valuable things, and I'll let you go, but where do you want to go south?"
"To the south is naturally the Qing Yu Sect. ”
Zhong Shan replied while thinking, what else could impress the other party, the precious things in the storage bag, in fact, had already been buried in a hidden place when he detected that someone was surrounding him, and what he brought with him was only for the purpose of carrying the fighting method, and this residual picture that only he knew was useful, and this residual picture was also estimated by him to be used to save his life, so he carried it on his body. It's just that this scoundrel Jiang Feng took the fragment of the treasure map, but he didn't recognize the value.
"Qing Yuzong and Jincheng Alliance may have reached a cooperation, won't you fall into the net by go?"
"This ......" Zhong Shan seemed to have heard of this, and couldn't help but hesitate in the same way.
"I can send you to the Li Sect, how about it? I have a friend who is short of help, and besides, his status is noble, maybe he can help you a lot when you have the strength to restore the sect in the future. ”
"I don't have that going to happen. ”
Hmph, Jiang Feng couldn't help but smile in his heart, he refused to be placed under house arrest by Leng Tingtao, fled to a foreign sect, and didn't want to re-establish the sect, could it be that you just hate Leng Tingtao, but Jiang Feng didn't bother to demolish him, "How about it, what about my suggestion?"
"I need time to think about it. ”
"You can think about it here. However, the sincerity that Fang just said still needs some. Jiang Feng looked at Zhong Shan, he knew that as a city lord, and he had a fragment of a suspected precious treasure map in his hand, and he used to have a canonization document, it was impossible for him to have no assets in his hands, the reason why he was so exploited was that he felt that if he wanted to show sincerity to Leng Tingtao, he also had to pay a sufficient price, and this price could only be paid by Zhong Shan at the moment.
In this transaction, there is no "wicked person and good person", in short, the two have no friendship, and in the short term, there should be no possibility of further cooperation, however, he plans to "sell" Zhongshan to Chu Yiming to work, this Xuan-level monk who has no heels, is in a foreign land, and should be able to help him a little.
Wei Ruoguang and Zheng Yiyu on the side also changed slightly, if they didn't feel the true breath of the head, they suspected that the head was pretending to be someone else, saying that the head of the house, who was still gentle and kind on weekdays, how could he be quite shameless today.
Zhong Shan obediently took out twenty third-order pieces.
Jiang Feng didn't withdraw his hand until Zhong Shan doubled the weight, took out the spirit stone again from a button-like magic weapon, and raised the "sincerity" to thirty-two third-order.
Enough, this is enough to repay Shangguan Boliang's batch of flying magic weapons, and it also exceeds the psychological price that he needs to redeem Qiu Zhenzhen, Jiang Feng happily accepted his hand, and handed over the spirit stone to Wei Ruoguang, "Thirty pieces will be put into storage, and two pieces will be distributed to all the monks involved in this matter." ”
"Yes!"
His face was a little ugly, and Wei Ruoguang, who was a little ashamed of the leader's behavior, came to his senses, it turned out that the head of the house meant this, and this spirit stone did make some sense!
Seeing Zheng Yiyu on the side, he couldn't help but be a little happy, could it be that I was too upright? With these thirty pieces in the warehouse, presumably next year to repay Shangguan Boliang's flying magic weapon fee, there will be a landing, this spirit stone he knows, and he also received a flying boat, thinking about it, the head of the sect is also for the sect, so it has become so bottomless.
"You have three days to think about it, before I meet Leng Tingtao. ”
Now that he has succeeded, Jiang Feng doesn't want to exploit the other party too much, he believes that if he searches the other party's body, the benefits will only be more, but it will exceed his bottom line, and at the same time, there is also an irreconcilable rival.
The so-called bottom line, once it is broken, it will only get lower and lower, until there is no bottom line, he doesn't want to die for money one day, but at the moment, the sect is in trouble, and it is common sense to be shameless. The two have no grudges, Jiang Feng thinks to himself that there is no need to kill chickens and take eggs, for Zhong Shan, this may just be a move of "goose plucking", looking at his fake painful expression, Jiang Feng also knows that this did not hurt his sore spots.
Sending Zhong Shan away and arranging him to live in the Spiegel Division, Jiang Feng returned to the inner mansion of the head of the house alone, the sky was getting dark, and after a while, he saw Su Jin accompanied by the maid and returned.
Jiang Feng gave him a look, and Su Jin retreated, and Su Jin also returned to his previous cold nature. It's just that compared to before, there was a little more humility in her eyes, presumably because Jiang Feng had been promoted to the ground level, the spirit level, compared to the ground level, was still a lot worse.
"How about we make a deal?"
Jiang Feng's gaze wandered away from Su Jin for a moment, and he took the first step to put forward his thoughts.
