Chapter 571: Coming to the Southern Regions
Lou Yi didn't give him the spirit crystal, but just gave him a token, and asked the owner of the immortal building to give this thing to Li Kang, and Li Kang would naturally be fully responsible for everything that followed, which Lou Yi was still extremely relieved of him.
The reason why this is done is actually very simple, one million high-grade spirit crystals is enough for these people to leave here and get on the ferry boat to Zhongzhou, so how can they ask the northern region where the immortal tower is located.
Lou Yi is not Shen Wansan, so naturally he will not be so stupid as to pay the remuneration before he has done anything.
Li Ting also seemed to understand Lou Yi's worries, so after retrieving the Wanli Crazy Sand Knife, he rushed to the Northern Regions with the token, and after that, naturally, as Lou Yi expected, Li Dang took full authority to deal with this matter.
The principle of asking Xianlou is to be able to live in it, as long as you have the ability, you can get better resources, so the Li family's hundreds of yuan infancy suddenly became the backbone of Wenxian Lou.
A large amount of resources were allocated to them, which also made Li Gang feel the sincerity of asking Xianlou, especially when their people were assigned the standard equipment, Li Ting really understood why Lou Yi was so confident, and believed that they would choose the former as a way to cooperate.
Because compared to money, of course, resources can improve their cultivation more, in this chaotic era, only strength is the guarantee of survival, and money is just an object of plunder, it is useless in troubled times......
At this moment, the four of Lou Yi had already left the area that the Wang family could monitor, and naturally accelerated towards the southern region, and neither Tie Shan nor Qi Hua spoke along the way, only Zi Li asked him, why did he let the people of the Li family join the Xian Lou instead of killing them all.
Lou Yi's answer is also very simple, because Ask Xianlou needs them, because Ask Immortal Lou is too weak......
The development of a force depends on many levels, and the most important point is the heritage, but the immortal building does not have this, coinciding with the arrival of troubled times, a force without a foundation, the consequences can be imagined.
And this is what Lou Yi is most worried about, so he needs time to enrich his power, but time is too much of a luxury in troubled times, and he can't have it.
Then there is another shortcut, which is to hire monks who are highly cultivated, but this also has huge drawbacks, and this is also caused by the lack of foundation.
A monk in the infancy stage, before choosing what kind of force to join, will naturally weigh the pros and cons, resources, security, and status, all of which are naturally indispensable, and asking about the current situation of the Immortal Tower, these three points can indeed be guaranteed.
It's just that this requires a prerequisite, it depends on who to compare with, if it is compared with the ordinary small forces, it is naturally more than enough, but if the object is replaced by the two Iron Kings, the result is probably self-evident.
If this is still the case in the Yuan Infant Stage, then what about the Transformation Stage and even the Refining Void Period, I'm afraid the result is already very obvious, even if you can provide the cultivation resources needed for the Refining Void Period, the other party will not respect you too much, because you don't have the means to restrain the other party.
Since ancient times, there have been many people who have achieved great success, and there are a few who are in peace, not to mention that you can't restrain the other party, not to mention that he may turn against each other at a critical moment, even if he is usually greedy, he may be insatiable and give what he wants.
However, the Li family is different, they have suffered a catastrophe, they are in a helpless and rootless state, even if Li Ting has cultivation, but in troubled times, dragging such a large family will never find a suitable place to stay.
The big forces don't look at it differently because he is in the refining period, and the smaller forces are afraid that they can't afford to raise such a large family, I'm afraid this is also the reason why Li Ting has always maintained a rootless state.
However, all this is not a problem for Lou Yi, he has money, resources are the same, what he lacks is only manpower, so there will be this plan or cooperation, as for the rebellion, I am afraid that Li Ting does not have this ability, because there is still a mourner in the fairy building.
So his answer was very simple, but it explained all this, and then no one spoke, Qi Hua was still looking at the wind in the sky, Tie Shan was still meditating and consolidating his cultivation, and he was thinking about how to cooperate with the Shen family, Zi Li stood aside thoughtfully, and peeked at Lou Yi beside him from time to time.
In this way, in about a day or two, the shadow of the Southern Regions appeared in front of them, and for the sake of unnecessary trouble, they still chose to hide their identities, and this time he had a long heart and let everyone put away their blades.
Tie Shan was naturally a hundred reluctant, Qi Hua was very cooperative and put away the star, Zi Li also changed out of the expensive long skirt and changed it to a more normal-looking skirt, still covering her face with a hat.
Lou Yi still has the same unsmiling mask and a coarse cloth robe, but he cleverly hides everything that should be hidden.
On one side of the river is Jiangshui Town, the first town in the southern region to eat by the river, but now Jiangshui Town obviously does not have the lively atmosphere of the past.
The original scene of busy traffic is gone, and the dock is full of complaining porters, who used to rely on coolies to support their families, but now they can only look at the river and sigh.
The appearance of Lou Yi and a few people immediately attracted their attention, and a group of porters surrounded them, introducing themselves in a gossipy manner, but of course there were more elements of boasting.
"My lord, do you want to consign goods? I, Zhao Xihai, am the number one porter in our Jiangshui Town, you are right to choose me!" said a black rough man grinning.
Lou Yi noticed that there were about one or twenty people with him, all of whom looked at him attentively, but he didn't come here for luck, but he still thought of a way, so he asked, "Brother Zhao Xihai, right, in this way, can you tell me where the Shen family is that connects the world, and all the fees of the brothers today, I will cover it by someone in Lu!"
Zhao Xihai was a little disappointed when he heard that he was not here to take luck, but when he heard the latter words, he immediately quickly changed to a flattering smile, raised his hand and said to Lou Yi, "Master, please here." ”
Lou Yi was more satisfied with Zhao Xihai, this person belonged to the old rivers and lakes, knew how to grasp the opportunity, and at the same time knew how to keep his chance, so Lou Yi and the four of them left the dock with them.
Those porters who did not encounter a good opportunity have reverted to their former appearance, sighing and complaining.
Not far from the pier, about two or three hundred meters away, there is a simple complex of buildings, most of which are made of wood covered with broken linoleum, and the surrounding smell is not very good.
However, Zhao Xihai was a smart man, and he did not take Lou Yi back to their humble and broken place, but took them all the way forward, through two rows of streets, and came to the door of a restaurant in Jiangshui Town.
If it were to catch up with normal times, with the identity of people like them, they would naturally not be able to enter this place, but this time is different from the past, and when the shopkeeper sees someone coming, he can wring out water with a smile on his face.
However, what made Lou Yi feel funny was that the smiling face that was like seeing relatives one second, and the next second, after seeing Zhao Xihai, that face became really wonderful.
Xiao Er glanced at Zhao Xihai with slanted eyes, and said angrily, "I said Zhao Dajia, do you have no work to entertain our Jiangbin Building?"
Zhao Xihai glared at him, and shouted angrily, "Don't talk nonsense, you have a distinguished guest today, hurry up and cook a few good dishes, and by the way, come a few jars of Jiang rice stuff!"
Xiao Er frowned, and glanced at it to see that there were four people beside him, but the dress looked very ordinary, only the woman looked a little mysterious, and couldn't help muttering, "Who are these people, can Zhao Dajiao still have distinguished guests?"
However, he still ran into the restaurant quickly, shouting at the top of his voice, "Twenty distinguished guests, good wine and good food!"
The shopkeeper of the restaurant was dozing off, but when he suddenly heard Xiao Er's voice, he was so frightened that he almost fell down on the counter, and scolded angrily, "Jiang Monkey, are you itching, where did you come from at this time!"
As soon as I finished scolding, I saw Zhao Xihai and his gang walk in, and the shopkeeper was even more angry, pointing at Zhao Xihai and shouting, "Zhao Dajiao, you are looking for trouble, hurry up and lead your stinky foot man to get out of me, the smell of sweat in this body has made my restaurant smell!"
Zhao Xihai hugged his neck and shouted, "What are you doing, Ma Leper, Lao Tzu brought distinguished guests to eat wine with you today, he is helping your business, don't talk nonsense and quickly order, today I have done everything I can do, and I have made all the good wine, what ......is this money?"
Zhao Xihai glanced at Lou Yi, the latter smiled, shook a piece of medium-grade spirit crystal with his hand, and landed on the counter accurately, and the dazzling light shone on the entire counter.
The shopkeeper swallowed his saliva and yelled at the sluggish child, "Why are you stupid?
Xiao'er hurriedly began to clean up the tables and chairs, so that these people could sit down, and the shopkeeper held this piece of medium-grade spirit crystal, carefully identified the old man for a long time, and then put it away breathlessly.
Zhongpin Lingjing is already a top-level thing in this place in Beizhou, and people have a piece in their hands, without blinking their eyes, what does this mean, the natural door of this shopkeeper is clear.
He had a hunch that as long as he served these masters well, I was afraid that there would be good things waiting for him, so the shopkeeper frequently went in and out of the back hall, and even ignored the counter, and personally instructed the kitchen, although the dishes in hand were served outside, the good wine in the cellar was carried out, and a jar of jars was carried out.
Zhao Xihai was also extremely excited, he was still a little skeptical, thinking about coming here to try, if he has no money anyway, he has enough to eat and drink, as for the accounts, it has nothing to do with him.
But when he saw that Lou Yi was waiting for a medium-grade spirit crystal, the doubts in his heart naturally disappeared, not only telling them the location of the Shen family, but also telling them some gossip about the Southern Regions.
It is better to talk about some rumors of the Shen family, it is said that Shen Caishen's wife is a great monk, Shen Caishen in order to be able to catch up with the other party, it can be said that the means are exhausted, and in the end the two sides are happy, but later Mrs. Shen went to the Wufu Sea to seek immortal fate, and there has been no news since then.
Lou Yi actually heard Shen Wansan tell him about this at the beginning, and when he heard this matter again at this moment, he couldn't help but sigh again, the wealth is rival the country, the world is connected, and the wealth can be connected to the gods, and even the woman he loves can't be found.
He thought of Hua Rumei, he didn't see the last of the other party, just so heaven and man are forever separated, he thought of Xu Weiyi, and said goodbye without saying goodbye, and he also thought of Gongsun Nishang, countless retreats, and finally came to an irreparable ending.
