Chapter 50: Acting President of the Chamber of Commerce
When he returned to his cabin, he closed the doors and windows, and lit the lampstand to illuminate the small cabin.
"Come out, just in case. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the shadow on the wall of the cabin shook a few times in the candlelight and began to bulge......
The virtual shadow slowly turned into a substance, and a person wrapped in black appeared in the cabin very suddenly.
Wan Li said with a wide heart: "How is the investigation of Liuyun Mountain City?"
Even though the person's whole body was black, he still kept standing in the corner, making it difficult to see his appearance and movements: "Young Master, the people sent by my subordinates have sent back the news that there is no trace of the Martial God Mind in Liuyun Mountain City. ”
Wan Lixin pursed his lips widely: "The Martial God Mind Method is definitely hidden in Liuyun Mountain City! Expand the search range, not only on the mountain, but also in the surrounding woods and under the cliffs, and show me every stone in Liuyun Mountain!"
"Young Master, there are too few of us...... It takes a lot of time to do so. ”
"Damn, why don't they let Wan Chamber of Commerce have their own people?" Wan Li's heart clenched his fist and gritted his teeth to squeak, "Forget it, take your time, but remember not to let people ...... Especially the people above found out that I didn't want to bother cultivating a few of you, but I was wiped out by the five divisions!"
"The most important thing now is the Martial God Sword, I didn't expect that the kid surnamed Huang would be followed by someone. ”
"In case, can you tell his strength?"
"Eldest young master, if you practice Japanese secret arts, you can't find out how many martial arts realms that person is, it's just ......"
Wan Li's heart looked coldly at the lampstand on the table: "Just what?"
"It's just the murderous aura that the man just burst out...... I'm afraid that the name of the blood-clothed Shura is not casually said, and the smell of blood on his body is very strong, I am afraid that he is the one who survived the interval between life and death. ”
"Such a character... It can't be measured by the martial realm alone......"
The corners of Wanli's heart were wide and the corners of his mouth were pressed down: "I've let you practice assassinating secretaries since I was a child, can you find a chance?"
"Yes... But it's hard. ”
"How much?"
Wanli's heart was wide This question made the man in the corner silent for a long time before answering: "... Semi-...... No. ”
"That guy is so difficult to deal with, can you find out where it came from?"
"The news from Qinglou that in the past twenty years, there has been no person called Thirteen or similar in the rivers and lakes. ”
"Higashiyamaju... At the peak of Dongshan's reign, there were more than a few thousand people, but the words of the twelve... Go, look in this direction. ”
The appearance of the thirteenth made Wan Li Xinkuan look through a lot of information overnight, knowing about the gangs and slightly famous people twenty years ago, but he couldn't find any clues, so he would go to the Qinglou, which claimed to be omniscient, to buy information, but there was no information about this person there.
There was a gap between the Shengwu era and the old martial era in the war, and the major forces were reshuffled because of this, and many things and people in the old martial era were abandoned, and only a very small number of people in the old martial era still knew something about the past.
However, those people are either incognito or have changed their appearances, and the people who are still active are also famous knights from the past, and if you want to go to them and ask someone who doesn't know their real names, I'm afraid you won't be able to smell them for a while.
Wan Lixinkuan slammed the table and began to mutter, "Damn, I have been searching for many years and finally have the news of the Martial God Sword, but I didn't expect to let the Ling family take the lead!"
"Now God has sent the Martial God Mind Method to me, but he has moved a big mountain to block it over there, what does it mean!?"
"No matter what, I must win the Martial God Sword!"
"Report ...... Father's revenge!"
The ferocious aura on Wan Li's face at this time was stronger than when Thirteen was telling about his past before.
Thirteen is arbitrary, and the wideness of the heart is the right.
Wan Chamber of Commerce publicized a few years ago that the president was no longer able to work for a long time because of the fatigue of the past years, so Wan Li Xinkuan was in charge of all affairs.
The "generation" of the president of Wanli Xinkuan has been several years, and the business of the Wan Chamber of Commerce has expanded more and more, but the president of the Wan Chamber of Commerce has never announced that Wan Li Xinkuan will officially serve as the president.
The reasons for this...... is the person behind the Wan Chamber of Commerce, and he feels that the dog has not yet been raised.
In the early years, the black market in various places was hidden underneath, and all kinds of illegal transactions were carried out secretly, and the Tang Dynasty was unable to control it at all.
After the Anshi Rebellion, the forces in the rivers and lakes were reshuffled, the black market became more chaotic, and the army after being trained by the martial gods had the strength to meddle in the affairs of the rivers and lakes.
Of course, it was not appropriate for the imperial court to go out directly to manage the black market, so it found a small businessman to support it, and gradually became the Wan Chamber of Commerce that everyone sees now.
The emergence of the Wan Chamber of Commerce began to stimulate the consumption of people in the rivers and lakes, and when everyone made more money, many people stopped fighting and began to concentrate on making money and enjoying life.
At the same time, the tax revenue of the imperial court also began to increase, quickly making up for the damage caused during the war, and establishing five divisions to secretly control the bottom of the rivers and lakes.
However, a small businessman is a small businessman after all.
The president of the Wan Chamber of Commerce, that is, Wanli's father, felt that the entire court was raised by himself, so he gradually felt unwilling to be a businessman behind him.
As the lowest level of society, he wants to be a scholar.
The imperial court's response to his idea was to send someone to poison him to death, and began to support Wan Li Xinkuan to sit in the position of president.
Wanli Xinkuan is a smart man, at least smarter than his father.
He understood that it was impossible to confront the imperial court with the Wan Chamber of Commerce, after all, the Wan Chamber of Commerce except for the ten thousand words belonged to him, and all the rest were the things of the imperial court.
He has only one person, and if he wants to fight against the imperial court on his own, the best way is to become a descendant of the Martial God!
The Descendants of the Martial God is a legend that is spread on the rivers and lakes, but no one cares.
The name carries too much pressure.
With the name of the martial god, it means that the sword held in the hand of the imperial court has been raised high, and as long as there is any disappearance, it will fall directly.
Wan Li Xinkuan has long listed the imperial court as an enemy, the biggest enemy.
Now, the opportunity has come, but it is full of obstacles!
"Young Master, there is news from Egret Island that the Ling family's giant ship has finished resting and is about to go to sea. ”
The people in the corner don't know when they'll leave or when they'll come back, but the news they bring is a good thing for Wanli's heart.
"How long will it take us to get to Licheng?"
"About half an hour. ”
Wanli pondered for a moment, and said in a deep voice: "Well... Let the boat go slower and take an extra hour. ”
"Yes!"
"And ......," a hint of coldness appeared at the corner of his mouth, "I will give the Tang Sect poison that I bought with a lot of money, and find an opportunity to mix it with wine and food for the two of them later." ”
"Presumably Huang Guiyun, that person named Thirteen, I'm afraid he knows a lot of things about the Martial God's mental method, if you can catch him and torture him with the Chen family's secret technique, it must be faster than you go over the mountain......"
"Yes!"
