Volume 1: The Chosen Boy Chapter 56: Developing Business
Since then, I vowed to return to the Burning Flame Country to find out about our murderer, and after some investigation, I heard the news that the young master had escaped safely that day, so I searched for the young master while looking for the real culprit behind the murder of the Pan family.
During this period, I also found a number of escaped guard disciples of the Pan family, and we began to travel together, but after so many years, there has been no news from the young master, so we gave up the search, and finally heard that the special jade mine of Wuti Town, so we turned into jade miners and lived in Wuti Town!
"Alas, Deacon Han please hurry up, so many years have passed, it is really bitter for you. Now that your cultivation has been completely lost and you have become like this, it is also because of you who are harmed by my Pan family, my Pan family is sorry for you, and it has affected you!" Pan Hu quickly knelt down on one knee and clenched his fists and apologized.
"Young master, please get up quickly, how can you kneel down for Han, the young master's words just now, how can it be regarded as a burden to us, since I chose to join the Pan family at that time, then I will be Pan's family for the rest of my life, and the family has suffered an accident, how can we be greedy for life and afraid of death, even if we die for the main family, what does it matter!"
"Don't say that in the future, the young master, I'll bring the dozen or so guard brothers to the young master. However, what the subordinates didn't expect was that after so many years, the young master is now so strong, no wonder so many of us are looking for you outside, but we can't find it!" Han Ziping said.
"At that time, I escaped from the killer, but I was only a teenager, and now more than ten years have passed, and my physique has been tempered a lot in all aspects, so naturally I am a little different from me at that time. Pan Hu said.
"Hey, hey, I said two, this, what's going on, what deacon?"
"What young master?"
"What Pan family?"
"Brother Han, what's going on, did the two of you know each other before?" Zhou Yan asked a few questions in a row with a confused expression.
"Little Brother Ye, as I said just now, in fact, Pan Hu is the young master of my Pan family, but today I found the young master by chance, and this matter is thanks to Brother Ye. Without you, I wouldn't have been able to follow, and it would have been impossible for me to recognize the young master!"
"It turns out that Pan Hu is your young master, so how could Pan Hu become a robber?" Zhou Yan turned his head to look at Pan Hu and said.
"Senior, the Pan Hu family suffered a catastrophe more than ten years ago, and the whole clan was wiped out overnight, I was rescued by my father desperately, so after escaping, I wandered alone for so many years, and met a group of brothers in life and death on the rivers and lakes, in order to live, there was no way for us to do the business of blocking the road and robbing, alas, ashamed, ashamed!"
"So that's the case, then we don't know each other, and speaking of which, this is also our fate, isn't it!" Zhou Yan said with a smile.
As time passed, the three of them chatted, and after Zhou Yan learned about the destruction of Pan Hu's family, he remembered the scene of the destruction of his Zhou family, and he was very sympathetic to Pan Hu's experience at that time.
Later, in the chat, the two learned about the specific cultivation strength of Zhou Yan's martial arts, and they were stunned, and the two looked at each other and agreed to follow Zhou Yan, although Zhou Yan refused many times, but he couldn't bear the stalking of the two, so he had to follow Zhou Yan, and finally Zhou Yan reluctantly agreed to the two.
After Zhou Yan accepted Pan Hu and Han Ziping, Zhou Yan also thought a lot during the period, he actually knew very well why the two of them had to follow him, it was nothing more than taking a fancy to his current martial arts strength, wanting to use his strength to help him find the real murderer, and then revive the Pan family. Because his life experience and Pan Hu's life experience are indeed similar, he accepted the two of them with sympathy.
"Subordinate, Pan Hu, Han Ziping meets the master!"
"Okay, since I promised to accept the two of you, but you can't call me master from today onwards, I sound awkward, why don't you call me Gongzi!" Zhou Yan said.
"It's Childe!" the two said in unison.
"From today on, you are my people, but I have to tell you my rules, my rules are actually very simple, that is, you can't do things that hurt nature and reason, that's all, but if you break it, I will be punished heavily!"
"Since the two of you have followed me, you can rest assured, in fact, why do you want to follow me, I know at a glance in my heart, I can help you revive the Pan clan, but now my power is still small, I can't satisfy you, but I promise you that once you have the opportunity in the future, I will be willing to take action!"
Pan Hu and Han Ziping were also extremely embarrassed after hearing Zhou Yan's narration, but when they heard that Zhou Yan knew that it was with his strength, Zhou Yan was still willing to help them, which made the two of them grateful, and kept kneeling on the ground and kowtowing to thank them, and the two of them swore allegiance to Zhou Yan in their hearts.
Half an hour later, more than 30 robbers escorted several truckloads of gold, silver and jewelry to the gate of the Governor's Mansion in Wuti Town.
"Who's coming?"
"This official, we are robbers from Wuling Mountain, and we have come to hand over the materials we have robbed over the years on the orders of Senior Ye, and I hope that the official will quickly enter the mansion to report!"
"The robbers of Wuling Mountain?" the guard's face changed drastically when he heard this, and he hurriedly led a team of people to surround the robbers.
"Sir, we were only ordered to hand in the supplies, why are you doing this!" a robber hurriedly shouted in fright.
"A group of bandits, who knows if you have any conspiracy, throw away all the weapons in your hands, you go and report, I will come to see these robbers!"
I saw a guard running quickly towards the house, and after a while, Wang Chong strode over.
"Are you robbers from Wuling Mountain?" Wang Chong asked.
"Lord Qiyu, we are!"
"Hmph, don't you know that Captain Pontus has wanted to eradicate you a long time ago, and why did he throw himself into the net and send you to death now!"
"My lord, we were actually ordered by a young senior Ye to come and deliver something, this is a letter, please take a look!"
"Young Senior Ye, who is this person?" Wang Chong asked.
"Adults better read it for themselves, I'll see you today, my predecessor said, adults will naturally know when they see the content of the letter!"
"Oh, bring it on!"
After a while, Wang Chong smiled and realized what had happened.
"Haha, it turns out that this matter is called by Childe, no wonder, no wonder! Childe's martial arts are excellent in addition to the robbers of Wuling Mountain, not only relieved me of a big problem, but also gave me several large cars of generous gifts, this is really a blessing for the people of Wuqi Town!"
"My lord, Senior Ye said, as long as the adult sees the letter, we can leave the carriage, you can leave, ...... your lord!"
"Well, let's go!" said Wang.
"Thank you, my lord, let's go, brothers!"
After the robbers left, the head of a guard really couldn't figure it out and walked up to Wang Chong.
"My lord, these people are all bandits, how can they be released now that they are sent to the door, this tiger returns to the mountain, how can it be so easy for us to catch them all in the future!" said the guard.
"What do you know, the robbers personally came to deliver the looted property for many years, and there will be no robbers in Wuling Mountain in the future, hahaha!" Wang Chong said with a smile as he walked.
The guard looked at Wang Chong who was leaving, and stretched out his hand and scratched his cheek a few times, "What's wrong with your lord today, how can it be so strange, I can't understand, I can't understand!"
At this time, the robbers left, and four men wearing hats and riding horses suddenly appeared on the street outside the governor's mansion, all of them were wearing blue clothes, and each back was tied to a sword, which was majestic and awe-inspiring, giving people a feeling of chivalry.
"Someone among the robbers just now said that there is a young Ye senior, you see that our son is also surnamed Ye, and the martial arts have already entered the late stage, if he is called a senior, it is not unavoidable, do you think it will be a son?" asked the man on horseback.
"There is a certain amount of truth in what you said, Childe went out to practice this time, and what he said was a chivalrous act to uphold justice, and this style of eradicating mountain bandits is also like Childe's style, but ......!"
"But what?" the man asked.
"However, it is difficult to get rid of the local bandits with the power of one person, otherwise the local government would have sent troops to get rid of these bandits, I don't think it should be a childe." ”
"Isn't it better for us to go and take a look, if it's really Childe, then we can go back to our lives!" the man said.
"You're right, we can't let go of any news about Childe, then let's catch up with that gang of robbers and ask for clarification!"
After speaking, several people nodded in agreement, and then threw up their horsewhips and chased after the robbers left, and the four people on horseback were the people sent by the Ye family in Nanyue City to find Zhou Yan, and the guards surnamed Luo were also Luo Zhen.
Inside the hall of the Wuling Mountain robber camp.
"Childe, didn't you just say that you had something to announce to the two of you?" Pan Hu asked.
"Hehe, exactly, I forgot to tell the two of you before, I observed the location of the camp and the surrounding geographical environment, behind this camp is a tall mountain, the surrounding trees are also lush and lush, vigorous, flowers and plants are all over the mountain, the scenery seems to be extraordinarily jumpy. And there is a stream leading directly to the cottage behind this camp, and it is a pity and a waste if such a good place is not developed and utilized!"
"Development?"
"What is development?"
"Please also make it clear!" Pan Hu asked.
"Hehe, this development is to establish this place as a place for business, such as taverns, inns, exchanges, etc., or everything that may be done can be established here, forming a commercial gathering place!"
"You see that the environment here is so beautiful, the geographical conditions are good, it is only half an hour away from Wuti Town, and in recent years, there are many merchants coming and going in Wuti Town, and there are countless jade mining industries in Wuling Mountain, so I thought of using this place to develop business industries, so as to expand our financial resources, and it will be more helpful for us to buy our subordinates in the future, so that it can also play a certain role in reviving the Pan family for you in the future, what do you think?"
