Early morning.

After ordering Tao Qian to bring out the family letter, the city lord dealt with the affairs that had piled up in the middle of the night, and he had just fallen asleep.

Before the tired body was completely relaxed, the lady's soft call came from behind the ears.

"Husband~Husband~A distinguished guest has arrived......"

The hazy sleepy eyes were difficult to open at all, after two days of suffering, Fang Yutang's whole body was physically and mentally exhausted, where could he care about what noble guests were not noble.

He waved his hand behind him haphazardly, and he didn't bother to turn around.

"If you don't see it, you won't see ......"

Hearing that she had not received visitors for three consecutive days, the virtuous Mrs. Fang did not dare to ask more, but after hesitating for a few breaths, she decided to remind her softly again.

"Husband...... It was Deacon Xue from Wanbao Pavilion who came. ”

This person, although she has a bad reputation, she is a well-known figure in Cangyue City, and many things can't escape this relationship, and she knows that she can't be snub at will.

Sure enough, when the lord heard this, he immediately jumped up from the soft collapse.

As soon as he changed his tiredness and fatigue just now, he tidied up his clothes and strode out of the door.

It's just that the back of leaving in an instant always seems to be different from usual.

in the living room.

Deacon Xue, who was enjoying the fragrant tea, had a ruddy face.

The bloated figure is not so comfortable to sit on, but the mood seems to be very good, obviously not caring about such trivial things, and always with a smile on his face.

"Deacon Xue. ”

A deep greeting made the chubby hands put down the teacup.

Standing up to salute, Xue Qiang's eyes were almost slit.

"Lord of the city, I have no choice but to come to the door early in the morning, and I hope the city lord will forgive me~"

This is true.

In just three days, the guests of Cangyue City were affected by the momentum, and the situation that was originally evenly divided had already gained a one-sided momentum.

Tianyuan Tower is overcrowded, but Wanbao Pavilion is rarely crowded.

Even if a few monks entered the shop, it didn't take long for them to be dissuaded by the high price.

However, Fang Yutang glanced at the visitor, but he didn't see that he was a little anxious.

The faint smile that appeared on his face seemed to be more like a bamboo in his heart.

Nodding out of courtesy, the city lord sat on the main seat and looked at Xue Qiang in a deep voice.

"Deacon Xue, the lord of this city is in charge of a city, and he should ask for the people's life, since you have something to ask for, it is understandable, but this early in the morning, you may not be too anxious. ”

Xue Qiang's smile froze.

The sudden dismount made him unhappy in his heart, but he also understood that this was Fang Yutang's plan to capture and indulge, so he chuckled and perfunctory.

After sitting down, he explained with a light smile.

"What the city lord said is extremely true, but it is also a last resort, now that my Wanbao Pavilion is in danger, life and death can all look up to the city lord, there is really no other way. ”

"I don't know, how did you think about the previous suggestion?~"

It sounds like an inquiry, but there is always a triumphant tone in the words, and everyone feels very uncomfortable.

Fang Yutang naturally understood Xue Qiang's intention early on.

is nothing more than to lure himself to betray Su Zhennan.

But after yesterday, his heart had completely dispelled a momentary move, and with a sneer, he looked directly at Xue Qiang.

"Deacon Xue, this city lord has never remembered what so-called advice he promised you. ”

What a Fang Yutang!

Sure enough, he is worthy of being the lord of a city, and when he arrives at this point, he still has the vision to sit on the ground and start the price, and the means are really ruthless, and he is not an idle person in the end!

Xue Qiang's heart was full of anger, but he had to smile and say: "City Lord, everything is negotiable, everything in this world has its own price, if you are not satisfied with the previous conditions, you can tell your bottom line." ”

"It's okay to talk about it. ”

The lord of the city sat down and drank tea, but did not respond.

Seeing this, Xue Qiang's brows furrowed slightly.

But he had to continue to smile and ask: "If three Jin Yuan Dan can't work, I will add another one in my next wish~"

The city lord remained unmoved.

"Two. ”

The city lord smiled lightly.

"Three?"

The living room was still silent.

Xue Qiang suddenly became angry, suddenly got up, and there was no smile on his face, staring at Fang Yutang for several breaths before he sat down with a cloudy face.

"Huh...... Lord of the city, the six golden yuan pills are already the bottom line below, and I would like to advise you below, and it is the best policy to accept everything when you see it. ”

"Otherwise...... Hum. ”

Originally, Fang Yutang thought that the other party's offer of three Golden Yuan Dan was already a sky-high price, but now he unexpectedly heard that there was a bottom line of six, and his heart was already cold to the freezing point!

At just half the price, he almost made himself a traitor who betrayed his friends and sought glory.

This Xue Qiang is really hateful!

But having said that, Fang Yutang didn't plan to leave any more affection.

His eyes looked straight into the past and took over the conversation in a deep voice!

"Otherwise, what can we do?"

In a deep voice, Xue Qiang's expression froze, but it was only for a moment, and he smiled again, slowly rubbing his fat hands, and the wrench fingers inlaid with spirit jade shone brightly.

"Otherwise, you'll miss this opportunity, city lord. ”

"You are a smart person, you must understand that such a good opportunity will not be available every day, just move your mouth, you can get six gold yuan pills, if such a good thing is missed, wouldn't it be a pity?"

"Which is more important between the so-called brotherhood and the six golden yuan pills, you must not be bothered, right?"

After saying that, a smile appeared in Xue Qiang's eyes.

Flattering and proud, but disgusting.

The face of the so-called profiteers is nothing more than this.

But under his demagogic tone, Fang Yutang spoke calmly without changing his face.

"Deacon Xue's words, the city lord understood. ”

"However, in my heart, don't say that six Jin Yuan Dan is ten or hundred, and it is not worthy of the righteousness of brothers. ”

As soon as the words fell, the living room was silent!

The calm words, as if there was an indescribable power, directly stunned Xue Qiang, and a look of surprise that had never been seen before appeared in his face, which was full of meat.

Even, even Mrs. Fang, who took the maidservant to prepare the pastries, was so shocked that she stood in the corridor outside the door.

Late, didn't step through the door!

I don't know how many breaths passed, Xue Qiang seemed to react, and slowly got up and looked at Fang Yutang.

"City Lord, are you trying to fool you?!"

Now that he has torn his face, Fang Yutang is no longer hiding it!

"Deacon Xue's words are serious! How could the city lord have agreed to your conditions? How can you talk about fooling?!"

Having said this, Xue Qiang finally understood.

This damn Fang Yutang has no intention of promising himself at all!

Thinking that his only hope was disappointed, Xue Qiang became angry on the spot!

"Good...... Good!"

"Since the city lord is dedicated to protecting his best friends, he doesn't dare to say much, but my Wanbao Pavilion will never stop there, if he asks the Lin family in the future, no wonder he doesn't care about the relationship for many years!"

Qingzhou Linjia ......

The background that cannot be ignored, Fang Yutang's heart is also sinking.

But he has already made a decision, so he has already been prepared, got up and glanced coldly, and no longer has the mood to waste his tongue.

"Deacon Xue go slowly, don't send it!"

Xue Qiang's face turned red, but he had nothing to do, so he had to flick his long sleeves and leave angrily.

After a few breaths, Mrs. Fang walked into the living room in small steps.

The oppressive atmosphere made this virtuous lady full of sorrow.

"Husband, after today, you have a grudge against Xue Qiang, although this person is insignificant, but the Lin family is famous, and ...... in the future."

Looking at the lady with elegant makeup, Fang Yutang calmed down a little.

Looking at the deserted courtyard, all the long-suppressed emotions in his heart were vented.

"Madam, since I returned to Cangyue City, I have been cautious everywhere for more than 20 years, and I am almost about to lose the arrogance of the year. ”

"The powerful are terrible, but the arrogance cannot be abandoned. ”

"If you lose yourself for the sake of temporary gain, it is more terrible than the walking dead on a regular basis, and after so many years, I have been careful enough, and it is time to stand up. ”

Standing proudly on her back, Mrs. Fang's vision was blurred.

Once upon a time, the city lord in front of her was also a young man who asked with a sword, so she fell in love.

Now, the boy is back.

But even if she was moved in her heart, when she thought of her son, Mrs. Fang was still worried.

"Husband, what should Cheng'er ......do in the future?"

Who knows, Fang Yutang didn't turn his head back, and only whispered softly.

"Wu'er...... Maybe there will be a great opportunity, and everything depends on his creation. ”

Hearing the words in the clouds, Mrs. Fang looked puzzled, standing in the courtyard and looking westward, but there was only the afterglow of the morning sun sprinkled from the east, and there was nothing.

What's the chance......?
