Chapter 0003: Three catties play with the minions
The apes on both sides of the strait could not stop crying, and the light boat had already crossed the ten thousand mountains.
Yu Deshui took Yu Tiechuan and his wife, as well as his granddaughter Yu Xian'er, squeezed on the canopy boat, and at this time he had already gone out of the river ten miles away, went down the river, and went straight to Lingzhong Mountain, where the Shenmen Sect was located.
"Dad, it's okay for Jin'er to stay in Jianglin, right?" Yu Tiechuan and his wife looked anxious.
"Jin Er has been smart since she was a child, and she has a lot of ideas, so she can deal with it! Besides, can we think of a better way?" Yu Deshui calmed down completely and comforted him.
"Brother is so smart, he will definitely be fine!" Eight-year-old Yu Xian'er is delicate and very well-behaved.
"God must bless us with peace and security, and turn evil into good fortune!" Lin folded his hands and muttered to himself, tears unconsciously gleeted up in the corners of his eyes.
......
In the hall of Jianglin Town, more than a dozen people were sitting together, and Yu Sanjin was in it, his eyes flickering, looking a little cramped and uneasy. In front of the seat was a wooden barrel, the one that held the fish.
The people sitting around, except for Yu Sanjin and Yaling Qiu Changlin of Jianglin Town, the remaining ten people were all from different powerful forces.
The power system of the Dao Court of Cangyun Kingdom is relatively clear, except for some transcendent forces, it is basically the upper forces that govern the lower forces, and the lowest level of the Xiuzhen forces is the first order, and they directly govern the secular world. The Divine Gate Sect is one of the many first-order cultivation forces in the Cangyun Kingdom, and the secular territory under its jurisdiction has a radius of two thousand miles, with three prefectures and eighteen towns.
In order to maintain its own dominance, the Dao Court adopted the method of respecting the Dao Court, allowing the middle level to do it, and the secular vacuum.
The first is to ensure the stability within the Dao court; the second is to allow the lower-level cultivators to encroach on each other, fight openly and secretly, and weaken their strength in disguise, making it difficult for them to threaten their own dominance; and finally, the power is empty, firmly grasping the secular realm, and strictly prohibiting the secular realm from participating in the struggle of the upper sect.
This practice makes the powerful forces in the secular world limited to the rampant and domineering in the Lu Yan Fang, and basically has no status in the cultivation realm, and is just a tool to take care of the secular world for the Dao Ting.
This means that it is extremely difficult for these worldly magnates to send their children to the upper sect to practice. This has also led to the competition for the elite forces for the fish.
At present, the twelve people sitting around the hall are from the Yunze Mansion Master's Family, the Yuntai Mansion Master's Family, the Yunzhen Mansion Master's Family, and other four secular families that are related to the Shangzong forces.
There are many secular forces hidden in Jianglin Town, and they all covet Yingyu, but those who really have the strength to participate in the robbery are these seven.
These seven forces, whether overt or covertly, dare to attack, and even do whatever it takes to achieve their goals. Of course, in front of everyone's eyes, they also have scruples, otherwise once they attract the attention of the upper sect, the consequences will be very serious.
In order to create a chance for his grandfather to get out, as soon as the boat docked, Yu Sanjin rushed to the meeting hall with the fish, which attracted these people to chase after him.
At that time, Qiu Changlin was handling other official business in the town office, and when he saw this group of people pouring in, he naturally played the role of a good old man, and hurriedly beckoned them to sit down.
He can do the order of Jianglin Town, he is good at observing faces, and he also knows the true face of these powerful forces.
Seriously, he was really worried that these guys would make trouble in the town office, and he couldn't afford to mess with any of these people. Once a murder is made in front of everyone's eyes and caused by the investigation of the previous sect, he will lose his head every minute.
Yunze Mansion is the superior of Jianglin Town, and it has a geographical advantage, so it naturally has a little more right to speak, and even the seat occupies the main position. In the hall, the two people in the middle of the first head are the senior executive of Yunze Mansion and the chief of the guard Liu, judging by his demeanor, the latter is slightly respectful to the former, which shows that the senior executive is the person in charge.
The first two on the left and the first two on the right are the stewards and guards of Yuntai Mansion and Yunzhen Mansion respectively, and the other four seats are sitting on the stewards of the other four families.
Yu Sanjin sat face-to-face with Qiu Changlin, and the position was the most backward.
From the order of seats in the hall, it can be seen that the three mansions are slightly stronger and the most powerful. Each of the remaining four families sent only one person, which shows that the power is slightly inferior to that of the three mansions.
These forces can send a steward and escort team to Jianglin all year round to garrison, which shows how much they attach importance to Yingyu.
Through careful observation, Yu Sanjin has roughly figured out the details of these people.
Seeing everyone sitting still, Yu Sanjin stood up, his body trembled a little, he bowed deeply and hugged his fists and saluted: "Everyone, all my lords, no, I don't know what you have to tell you to chase the villain so far?"
Yu Sanjin's scared appearance was naturally pretended, and he was actually very calm in his heart. These bastards, they do a lot of good things on weekdays, they fish the people all day long, bully men and women, and make Jiang Linzhen full of complaints, and everyone with a discerning eye knows that the tragedy of the old Tang family ten years ago was done by these people.
All the eyes of everyone looked over, and they all had one idea, just a teenager and a half-year-old, who couldn't turn the sky. In this case, it is normal to be afraid, and there are ghosts if you are not afraid.
The senior executive of Yunze Mansion, who was in good shape, and the piles of fat on his face lined his eyes very small, and he snorted, obviously displeased: "Boy, what are you running around? Uncle Ben can't eat people!"
The others sneered, wondering why Yu Sanjin ran so fast.
"Big, adult, villain, isn't this a treasure, afraid, afraid of others robbing it? The villain can hear about this fish, this, this fish is very valuable!"
Everyone laughed out loud, and sure enough, it was a child's words, and the people who chased after them were not all clearly trying to rob you of the fish?
Qiu Changlin also showed a wry smile on his face, he was a native of Jianglin, and he knew Yu Sanjin's situation quite well, and he didn't want anything to happen to this kid in his heart.
"Little brother don't need to panic, we are all reasonable people! I won't rob your baby!" The steward of Yuntai Mansion, dressed as a scholar, with a smile on his face, looks like a person with a knife hidden in his smile.
The others had different expressions and were noncommittal.
"You, you really don't rob me, rob my fish?" Yu Sanjin pretended to be very happy, looked at the steward of Yuntai Mansion, and then looked around, as if asking to prove other people's opinions: "Then, then thank you to the adults, the villain will leave!"
After saying that, he lifted the barrel and made a gesture to leave.
A room full of people laughed, Qiu Changlin closed his eyes, shook his head, and the wry smile on his lips was even worse.
"Wait!" "Wait!" The head of the guard Liu of Yunze Mansion, his body was very strong, and he saw him stop drinking, leave his seat, step in front of Yu Sanjin in a few steps, and stretched out his hand to stop him: "People can go, fish stay!"
Yu Sanjin took two steps back, his eyes were terrified, and he turned his head to look at the steward of Yuntai Mansion as if asking for help: "This, this, this adult, you, didn't you say that you wouldn't rob me of fish?"
The steward of Yuntai Mansion glanced at the chief of the guard next to him, and the sturdy middle-aged man also jumped out and protected Yu Sanjin: "Little brother, don't be afraid, we said that if we don't rob your fish, we won't rob your fish, and we won't allow others to rob your fish!"
Then he confronted the chief of the guard of Yunze Mansion: "Could it be that Brother Liu is going to come hard?"
Guard Liu's eyes showed a fierce light, and he said viciously: "Zhang Long, this is the boundary of my Yunze Mansion, and your Yuntai Mansion can't stand up!"
Zhang Long did not show weakness, took a step forward, and pulled out the long knife on his waist: "My Yuntai Mansion is not afraid of your Yunze Mansion!"
Seeing that the two sides were tense for a while, the atmosphere became tense. Qiu Changlin suddenly couldn't sit still, and hurriedly stood up to stop him: "Two adults, please dissipate your anger, although this small temple under your subordinates is small, it is also a town government under the Taoist court system, you are fighting here, if you make a fuss, it will be difficult for everyone to keep up with the sect!"
The gloomy-looking steward of Yunzhen Mansion also spoke, he turned his head to look at the senior management of Yunze Mansion, and then turned to the steward of Yuntai Mansion: "Senior brother, Brother Ning, I think what Qiu Yaling said is reasonable, everyone is in the same vein as the Dao Court, there is nothing to discuss, there is no need to meet each other!"
"What Steward Fan said is very true!"
"Harmony makes money! Harmony makes money!"
"Fight and kill, it's insulting!"
"We can't add chaos to the Shangzong and discredit the Dao Court!"
The stewards of the other four powerful forces also expressed their attitudes, they are not fools, they will definitely not be able to get the people of the three mansions if they are rude, as long as the matter is discussed, they will not have a chance to compete for Yingyu. took the opportunity to put pressure on Yunze Mansion and Yuntai Mansion as well.
Yu Sanjin pretended to be scared and shrank behind Zhang Long, snickering secretly in his heart. A group of cozy turtle grandsons, coveting the master's Yingyu and many words, when the grandfather moves to the rescue, there is a time for you to cry.
Steward Ning snorted: "Our lord often teaches me and other slaves to always be reasonable, to be more reasonable! Zhang Long, don't you put away your weapons? What is the matter, you can be reasonable!"
"Yes, yes, be reasonable!" the executive also spoke.
Zhang Long put away his broadsword and took two steps back, and Captain Liu reluctantly put away his posture.
Watching a sword battle disappear into invisibility, Qiu Changlin breathed a sigh of relief.
"Little brother, can you sell me your fish, give you a big price!" the executive forced a smile and said to Yu Sanjin a little playfully.
"Yes, yes, little brother, sell me your fish, and the price is yours! We are reasonable people!" Steward Ning smiled and looked extremely enthusiastic.
"Boy, it's useless for you to keep this fish, sell it to me, and I will protect you with glory and wealth for the rest of your life!"
"My Zhang family is willing to take out a shop, a house, and a hundred taels of gold in Lingzhong City to buy your Yingyu!"
"My Chen family can add three beauties and ten servants and maids under the conditions of the Zhang family!"
"The head of my Yun family is willing to accept you as a righteous son, and is responsible for properly settling your family and ensuring that you enjoy a happy life!"
"My Ye family recruited you to be a son-in-law, the third lady of my family is fifteen years old, she is naturally beautiful, and she is very compatible with the little brother!"
......
For a while, these powerful stewards made quotations one after another, swearing.
Yu Sanjin was a little playful in his heart, and he really secretly convinced the shameless faces of these people. Your uncle, the quotation is quoted, and even the tricks of helping the head of the family to accept the righteous son and recruit the son-in-law have been used, is it really a pig for the master? Don't look at what identity he is, is he qualified to be the master of the family? Even dare to play such a low-level dirty trick, if they trick the fish, will he still have this little life?"
He remained silent, his eyes lit up, with the face of a rich slave, looking at this, and then at that, he couldn't make up his mind, and muttered to himself: "This, this fish is so valuable?"
A group of people looked at him blankly, with a more or less nervous look in their eyes.
"Do you want gold, do you want beautiful women, the shop and the house seem to be good, it would be better if there were maids to serve you!" Yu Sanjin continued to play.
"Little brother, the appearance of the second lady of my Yuntai Mansion is famous for a radius of two thousand miles, you sell me the fish, and the second lady will marry you!"
"My young lady from Yunze Mansion is up to you to choose!"
"I'll marry you two young ladies in Yunzhen Mansion!"
"My Zhang family marries you three young ladies!"
"My Chen family ......"
"My Yun family ......"
"My Ye family ......"
......
Qiu Changlin was also dumbfounded, what is this?
Yu Sanjin despised it even more in his heart, feeling that all these grandsons regarded him as a three-year-old child, and he didn't want to think that I was Jiang Lin's famous ghost elf. But then I thought that once the fish was not bought, these words came to the ears of their masters, and I was afraid that they would kill them.
Thinking of this, his heart immediately balanced.
