Chapter 524: Luring the snake out of the hole
There are three Jindan monks sitting in the Qi family, one is a Jindan Dzogchen monk, and the other two are Jindan early stage monks.
On weekdays, the captain of the Yuan Infant Law Enforcement Team is only in name, and the one who really handles the affairs is the Jindan Great Perfection Monk, while the other two Jindan Early Stage Monks are in charge of the Qi family's property.
Qiao Yuan understood this, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, if it was just like this, then he killed Qi Sihai, and it was not without a little way out.
Thinking of this, Qiao Yuan pondered for a moment and asked again.
"Sister Rong, what is Qi Sihai's status in the Qi family?"
"To be honest, Qi Sihai's cultivation qualifications are not outstanding, and his status in the Qi family is not very good, but after all, he is from the Qi family, and he has a high seniority, so he was sent to Jiang Qicheng to take care of the shop and do some trivial things. ”
Liang Rong looked solemn and said slowly.
After Qiao Yuan heard these words, he understood the truth after a little thought.
The development model of the Xiuxian family is not the same as that of the sect, the Xiuxian family pays attention to providing the best resources to the best qualified clansmen, while the clansmen with poor qualifications can only be sent out to take care of the industry, earn resources, and serve the family.
Since Qi Sihai has been managing the family business in Jiang Qicheng all the year round, it is believed that the family thinks that he does not have much potential in his cultivation.
"And does he have any background?"
"Qi Sihai is the fourth in the previous generation, his two elder brothers have advanced to the Golden Pill, and his father is a Golden Pill Great Perfection monk, but neither of them is in Jiang Qi City. ”
Liang Rong's expression slowly became solemn, and her beautiful eyes were full of worry.
Then Qiao Yuan asked Liang Rong a few more questions, and walked out of the room with her.
There were only three days left, and Qiao Yuan had to bring Qi Sihai in so that he could find a chance to kill him.
Early the next morning, Qiao Yuan came to the shop opposite the teahouse, which was the property of the Qi family, specializing in selling spiritual weapons.
Although he looked like a mortal, he was no different from a high-ranking monk in terms of demeanor and temperament.
The guys in the shop are just refining qi and cultivating, and they have read countless people, although they didn't feel the slightest fluctuation of spiritual power on Qiao Yuan's body, but they could see at a glance that he was not an ordinary person.
"Senior, what do you want to buy?"
"Call your treasurers. ”
Qiao Yuan glanced at the guy, said in an unquestionable tone, and walked straight to the second floor without looking at the guy after speaking.
He sat in the teahouse for several days, and he was very familiar with this shop, and he knew that the shopkeeper of this store was the Qi family, and he was quite familiar with Qi Sihai.
The guy was glanced at by Qiao Yuan, only to feel that the whole person seemed to have fallen into an ice cave, and it took a while to react, and he hurriedly ran towards the backyard of the store.
In an accord on the third floor, Qiao Yuan held a cup of tea and drank it indifferently.
With a creak, the door was pushed open, and a middle-aged man in a brown costume walked in.
He has a kind smile on his face, his face is full of red light, and without speaking, people can't help but feel trusted.
But when he felt that Qiao Yuan did not have a trace of spiritual power fluctuations, his smile stiffened, and his face was slightly gloomy.
"You're the shopkeeper?"
Qiao Yuan knew that this person must be suspicious, so his eyes sank slightly, and he asked in a slightly contemptuous tone.
Hearing this tone, and then looking at the slightly gloomy gaze, the middle-aged man actually had a feeling of facing the elders of the Jindan period in the clan, and his heart was shocked, and he secretly said that this person must be very good at restraining his own aura.
"It's the juniors. ”
"There is only one thing here, to transfer this jade slip to Qi Sihai, saying that there is a big business to cooperate with him. ”
Qiao Yuan's expression was cold, and as he spoke, he took out a jade slip and threw it to the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man took the jade slip and couldn't help but look weird.
I thought to myself, this person is looking for Qi Sihai to talk about business, how can he come here, with his cultivation in the Jindan period, shouldn't he go directly to the Qi family's mansion in the inner city?
"If you don't like those family etiquette, you can tell Qi Sihai that tomorrow at noon, you will be here, and you will not be gone. ”
Qiao Yuan naturally saw the middle-aged man's thoughts, he stood up, put away the coldness on his face, showed a faint smile, and patted the middle-aged man's shoulder.
With this gentle pat, the middle-aged man suddenly felt his body sink, as if a mountain was pressing on his shoulders.
But in just an instant, that feeling disappeared, and when he turned his head again, he saw that Qiao Yuan had already stepped out of the door.
The middle-aged man hurriedly raised his hand, wiped away the cold sweat from his forehead, and then looked down at the jade slip in his hand, revealing a thoughtful expression.
Qiao Yuan knew that the Qi family had many industries in Jiang Qicheng, but the most famous of them was a kind of seafood ore, which was also an industry controlled by Qi Sihai.
There are not many words in the jade slip, but it shows that Qiao Yuan wants to buy a large number of seafood ores, if Qi Sihai sees the jade slip, there is no reason not to come to the appointment.
Of course, Qiao Yuan would not be stupid enough to kill Qi Sihai in the Qi family's shop, so even if he killed someone, it would be very difficult for him to get out.
At noon the next day, Qiao Yuan came to the store again, and as soon as he entered, the guy on the first floor greeted him warmly and took him up to the third floor.
As soon as I went up to the third floor, I saw the shopkeeper walking forward with a smile on his face, bowing respectfully and saying.
"Seniors, please come with juniors. ”
After speaking, seeing Qiao Yuan nodded, he turned around and walked forward, made a few turns, stopped at the door of a large Accord, and said respectfully.
"Seniors, Fourth Brother Qi is inside, and juniors won't go in. ”
Qiao Yuan's eyes flashed slightly, and he pushed the door in directly, just now he saw something else in the man's eyes, it seems that something has changed.
Sure enough, as soon as he entered the Accord, in addition to Qi Si Overseas who fell into his eyes, there was actually a man in white in his thirties.
The man in white sat in a corner, closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, ignoring Qiao Yuan's arrival.
"The juniors are all over the world, the seniors, please take a seat. ”
Qi Sihai's gaze quickly swept over Qiao Yuan's body, his expression did not show the slightest abnormality, and he said respectfully.
In the past few days, in order to facilitate his work, Qiao Yuan asked Liang Rong to find a spiritual weapon for him to cover his face, and now that his face has changed greatly, Qi Sihai naturally can't recognize Qiao Yuan.
"Who is this fellow Daoist?"
Qiao Yuan looked a little displeased, turned his head to look at the man in white who was closing his eyes and pretending to sleep, and asked coldly.
When the man in white heard the words, his eyes suddenly opened, and the moment he opened his eyes, a powerful coercion of the Golden Pill Period spread violently, instantly filling the entire Accord.
Qi Sihai hurriedly took two steps back, but his eyes were staring at Qiao Yuan, and when he saw that his expression remained unchanged and his body was motionless, he already had a judgment in his heart.
Qiao Yuan's white clothes were swept by the coercion of hunting, but his back was as tall as a pine, and he didn't seem to be affected in the slightest.
He stared coldly at the man in white, with a faint cold light in his eyes, and said very unceremoniously.
"What do you mean?"
"Haha...... , In Xia Qi Jiuxian, there was a lot of offense just now, and I hope that Taoist friends don't mind. ”
The man in white stared at Qiao Yuan for a few moments, and suddenly his expression changed, he laughed, and after laughing, he hugged his fist towards Qiao Yuan, and said very politely.
The scene just now, the three of them all knew that it was Qi Jiuxian's deliberate temptation, wanting to see what Qiao Yuan was cultivating, and why there was not the slightest fluctuation of spiritual power around him, like a mortal.
Although Qi Jiuxian still didn't feel the fluctuation of spiritual power on him, he was able to resist the coercion of the Jindan period monk and not change his color, which was enough to show that Qiao Yuan was also a Jindan stage monk.
Qiao Yuan frowned, no longer paying attention to Qi Jiuxian, but looking at Qi Sihai.
In this case, only the higher he shows his posture, the more they will attach importance to him, and they will not dare to test easily.
Sure enough, Qi Jiuxian saw that Qiao Yuan didn't give him a good face, although he was unhappy in his heart, but the smile on his face was even worse, and he hurriedly stepped forward to stand with Qi Sihai and said slowly
"With Daoyou's temperament, I guess I don't like to beat around the bush, so let's get straight to the point, how much Haiyan ore do Daoyou need?"
"Ten thousand. ”
Qiao Yuan spit out two words with a faint expression, and there was naturally a trace of dissatisfaction in his eyes.
With Qi Jiuxian's eyesight, he naturally saw that Qiao Yuan was still thinking about what had just happened in his heart.
He is also a person with an arrogant temperament, since others don't want to see him, there is really no need to put a hot face on his cold ass, so he said softly.
"Although 10,000 Haiyan ore is a big business, if I want the fourth brother to handle it properly, I won't interfere in the future, so I will leave. ”
After finishing speaking, he flicked his sleeves, turned around and walked towards the door, Qiao Yuan nodded calmly, and did not say anything to hold on.
Although Qi Jiuxian is gone, only Qiao Yuan and Qi Sihai are left in this house, he will not kill Qi Sihai here.
The two sat down and talked about the business of a stick of incense seriously, but after the big thing was basically negotiated, Qiao Yuan put forward a condition.
"This Wan Haiyan ore is very important below, and the road is extremely long, so you need to look at the cargo and the cargo ship you are transporting the goods below. ”
"This is natural, I wonder if the seniors plan to go to see it today, or another day?"
Qi Sihai has done a lot of business, so he is naturally a person with eight faces, and when he heard Qiao Yuan's words, he hurriedly asked with a smile.
"Right now. ”
Qiao Yuan said lightly without thinking.
"Now?"
Qi Sihai was stunned, he didn't expect this person to be so decisive and refreshing, and after a moment of silence, he continued.
"Senior, this Wanhaiyan ore still needs a period of time to be deployed for the time being, so it's better for the junior to take the senior to see the cargo ship first. ”
Qiao Yuan nodded and walked directly towards the door, and Qi Sihai hurriedly followed with a smile.
After a short time, the two of them left Jiang Qi City and came to the lively dock.
Qi Sihai led the way while introducing their Qi family's cargo ships and industries to Qiao Yuan with a smile on his face.
I have to say that this Qi Sihai is secretly an unscrupulous person, but on the surface, he is humble and polite, gentle as jade.
If Qiao Yuan hadn't known about Qi Sihai's assassination of Yang Jian and forced Liang Yun to marry him, I'm afraid he would have mistaken this person.
