Chapter 249: Nago
Nagoya.
This shop has been around for a long time in Nanshi, and if you ask some older people, there should still be people who remember this once glorious second-hand house.
That's right, don't look at this store now, it's too dilapidated to be unwanted, but it's an ancient store that existed long before the official establishment of Nanshi.
Even retrospectively, this shop was established together with Blue Maple City, and at that time, there was no distinction between the inner city and the outer city, and the entire Doom Corner was far less prosperous than it is now.
But such a long-established store is still surviving, and few people still remember its former scenery.
There is no other reason, the founder of this store and the big boss behind the scenes is the original city lord of Blue Maple City, that is, the once famous "Scattered" Lan Fenghua.
"Scattered" is the name of Lan Fenghua, and this person's rise was at the height of the chaos of Doom, when the Eagle Nation had not even established a central court, and Middle-earth was still under the absolute control of the royal family.
In that era, the Doom Corner also became a gladiatorial arena for all forces, setting off waves of bloody storms, and all kinds of masters emerged in an endless stream, but they also fell very quickly.
In such a cruel era, Lan Fenghua was still able to make a huge name, and was even once recognized as one of the top ten masters of Doom Corner, known as "Everywhere Scattered".
His self-created martial arts "Divine Hand" also terrified countless enemies, and later established today's Blue Maple City, almost with the power of one person, the Lan family from an obscure small family to a hegemon.
In the era when Lan Fenghua was in power, everything was still extremely chaotic, and even the biggest event in the Doom Corner, the Doom Cape City Tournament, was founded in his later years.
It's a pity that before the first competition officially started, Lan Fenghua fell in an accident, and before that, people predicted that Lan Fengcheng could win the top ten in this competition.
But as soon as Lan Fenghua died, everything came to naught, and the Lan family was also beaten back to its original form, and it didn't take long to lose control of Lan Feng City, if it weren't for Lan Fenghua's old friends to take care of him, I am afraid that the Lan family would have been wiped out long ago.
Even if the sect was not destroyed, the Lan family was forced to split into countless branches, which was regarded as self-abandoning martial arts, and almost overnight, it went from a powerful family with a lot of bad luck to many small branches.
Such a strategy of breaking the whole into pieces is also a last resort, although it has lost all kinds of benefits and benefits, it has barely retained the right to survive of the Lan family's bloodline, and will not be eaten into residues by all parties.
In the same way, when Lan Fenghua was still alive, most of the industries in Lan Feng City belonged to the Lan family.
But after his fall, these properties were either forced to change hands or, like Nagoya, and fell into decay in the blink of an eye.
In fact, Nagoya is quite good, after all, it is not a particularly profitable and popular business, otherwise it would have been occupied and annexed by other forces a long time ago, and it would not have survived now.
Counting the original industry of the Lan family, such a still exists, I am afraid that there is only such a dilapidated Nagoya left, it is really a success or failure, no matter how powerful the warrior is, he can't withstand the cruelty of time.
Of course, Chen Mu didn't know this information, he just walked around casually, and just walked to the door of Nagoya, since he came, he went in and had a look.
But in the eyes of the woman of the Mao family, there is something different, she happens to know the details of Nagoya.
This is also a coincidence, because the Mao family's power has only recently expanded to Blue Maple City, and as the west gate of the Doom Corner, trade is very prosperous, and the Mao family has long wanted to intervene here.
But their base camp is a long way from here, and a big force like the Mao family will attract vigilance from all sides with every move.
Even if the current ruler of Blue Maple City seems to be "ruling by inaction", he will definitely not allow a big force like the Mao family to casually extend his tentacles to Blue Maple City.
If you don't communicate well in advance, this kind of behavior is likely to be perceived as hostile by the other party, and if you don't do it well, it will lead to a fight between the two parties.
The Mao family also went through several rounds of difficult negotiations before they reluctantly reached a deal with the ruler of Blue Maple City and obtained permission to enter Blue Maple City, but there were also many additional conditions.
These additional conditions have set various restrictions on the development of the Mao family in Lanfeng City, such as some industries, the Mao family is not allowed to interfere, on the grounds that these industries have long been famous.
The Mao family was also very helpless, and they were also unwilling, and after many investigations, they found a breakthrough that was not a breakthrough, that is, a second-hand house that sold all kinds of "rare treasures".
This industry is relatively out-of-the-way, and it has not been controlled by other big forces in Lanfeng City for the time being, at least there has been no monopoly behavior.
So the Mao family decided to enter this industry strongly, of course, if they don't enter, they will definitely monopolize this industry once they enter.
The controller of Blue Maple City also acquiesced to this, after all, the Mao family paid a lot of price to enter Blue Maple City, and it was impossible for people to hang out every day after they came in, and they had to give some benefits.
Let the Mao family monopolize all the second-hand houses in Blue Maple City, this is also the tacit understanding of the major forces in Blue Maple City, anyway, there is not much oil and water in this industry, and it is nothing to let the Mao family monopolize it.
The Mao family naturally knew that there was not much profit in it, but all they needed was a breakthrough, first take the opportunity to gain a firm foothold in Blue Maple City, and then take their time at other times.
The few second-hand houses that Chen Mu visited before had already reached an agreement with the Mao family, and now they have not changed their signboards in name, but the actual controller is already the Mao family, and it can be regarded as the Mao family's stronghold in Lanfeng City.
As for how much blood and tears, forced buying and selling, and py trading are in it, that's another story, but here in Nagoya, the Mao family accidentally hit a nail.
It turns out that the current owner of Nagoya is still a direct descendant of Lan Fenghua, a grandfather and grandson, an old man with a strange temper, with a teenage girl, and the two of them live in this shop.
It stands to reason that no matter how long this shop is, it has long since disappeared by now, except for a very few people who still remember the glorious history of this shop, others only know that this is a small and dilapidated shop, and it is a miracle that it has not closed down.
The Mao family also thought so at first, so the people who came to talk about things were very arrogant, and bluntly said that they would let the grandparents and grandchildren roll up and get out, and this store would be surnamed Mao in the future, and as for compensation or anything, there was no dime.
What kind of play is it, our Mao family can take a fancy to your broken shop, even if you burn high incense, you still want to make up for it, you haven't woken up, don't you want your little life anymore, send you a spiral to heaven in minutes Believe it or not?
