Chapter 290: Recruiting relatives in martial arts

The next day, perhaps because he was too tired a few days ago, this sleep, Le Qi slept directly until noon, and what woke him up was not the soft light that was no longer dazzling after layers of obstacles, but the big plush tail of the little pine cone, just a light sweep on his face, he opened his eyes that were still a little confused.

After giving the little guy a smile, Le Qi finally got up, pushed open the window and looked outside, the sun was close to the highest point, it seemed that the time was not early, but he was still a little sleepy, his eyes blinked twice from time to time, and his mouth was also yawning, until he applied cold water to his face when washing, and the cool feeling completely made him completely sober.

After going down to the first floor of the inn for an ordinary lunch, Le Qi did not return to the guest room, but went out, preparing to go around the town, familiarize himself with the terrain and learn more about Luoyun Town, where he was about to live for a while.

......

In the blink of an eye, it was already eight o'clock, Le Qi went out to count, it had been walking for an hour or two, a little tired, I saw a tea shop not far ahead, there were many people drinking tea leisurely on the tea party, so that a few guys were also busy running around to greet guests, I think it was tea is not bad.

Approached the second floor and found a small unmanned tea table by the window and sat down, and soon, the tea shop guy came to greet him with a smiling face, and after Le Qi casually paid dozens of gold coins and ordered a pot of slightly famous and delicious green tea, he began to recall what he had seen and heard about Luoyun Town before.

Luoyun Town, close to the Ronan Mountains, is actually a mountain range connected to the branch of the Linlang Mountains, but it is separated by a long distance and is an inconspicuous branch, so it is called the Ronan Mountains by nearby residents. This is a town of considerable scale, with an average length of more than seven or eight miles, and the number of inhabitants in it is initially estimated to have reached the scale of fifty or sixty thousand people, which is really not a small number for a town. If you add the nearby villages, it may exceed 100,000 people.

Of these 50,000 or 60,000 people, at least more than 60 percent are hunters and other professionals from other places, which are called adventurers, while the native-born aborigines account for less than 30 percent.

As for why there are a large number of adventurers gathered here, the reason is not complicated, that is, three hundred years ago, the adventurer's guild set up a branch in this mountain town, before that, Luoyun Town was just an inconspicuous existence among many mountainside towns, and it can even be said that Luoyun Town at that time may be more appropriate to be called Luoyun Village.

However, it is lucky, three hundred years ago, the Adventurer's Guild decided to set up a branch in this area, and finally selected the slightly larger Luoyun Village, Luoyun Village became Luoyun Town, and Luoyun Town became the only adventurer's guild branch within a radius of two or three hundred miles. At this point, Luoyun Town began its glory days, and more and more adventurers were attracted by the rewards issued by the Adventurer's Guild, and there was an endless stream of clients who came to issue tasks for various purposes, so the number of residents in the town gradually increased, and more and more houses were built, and finally reached the current scale.

In fact, before the arrival of the Adventurer's Guild, whether it was an adventurer chasing profits or a commissioner who wanted to release a task, the arrival of the former only gave a more credible platform. To put it simply, those who live are basically still people in this area, and those who receive work are basically still people in this area, but all of this is connected because of the arrival of the Adventurer's Guild. During the whole process, the Adventurer's Guild didn't actually do much, but it was able to get the most out of it. Strange to say, this is completely unprofitable? Actually

Not really, because it provides the most important factors, strength, credibility and security.

Of course, if some people think that these factors are still unprofitable, in fact, there is nothing wrong, but this is the case in the whole way of doing business, especially in some crucial industries, especially in some crucial industries, and the leading bosses with large scale and strength will naturally become bigger and stronger; Is the former much better than the latter? Not necessarily, and sometimes even the latter model is more effective. So why not, just because the former has one of the most important factors in these industries: trustworthiness.

For example, if you save money, you will naturally choose the most credible bank. A century-old bank, it has low interest rates, and even the service attitude of the guys is very ordinary. But another little-known small money bank that has only been open for a few years has an interest rate of 30% higher than the former, and the service attitude is good, but the strength is not good. How to choose? Where to save money? Basically, the vast majority of people will choose the former. Why, people dare not gamble on such an important thing as money, and seek stability. To sum up, that is, human nature instinctively pursues stability, and whoever can provide stability in these important industries will do it.

The Adventurer's Guild has been based in the Black Forest Empire for thousands of years, and its reputation is illustrious, making it easier for people to believe, so it can expand and grow in the area of Luoyun Town, that's all.

Back in Luoyun Town, the Adventurer's Guild has attracted a large number of people to come and go, and even warriors from neighboring towns such as Yuhuang Town often come here, so the real population density of Luoyun Town is actually greater. Some people have to buy and sell consumption, so all kinds of functional shops are built from this, which is very complete.

And in Luoyun Town, there are two major families, that is, the Jin and Ye families mentioned by the inn guys yesterday, they have lived in Luoyun Town for three or four hundred years, and they all made a lot of efforts to establish the branch at the beginning, so they got the management of the branch, and they also started because of this.

Among them, the Ye family Ye Mansion is located in the north district of Luoyun Town, and Le Qi has already seen it, and it is indeed very magnificent, covering an area of at least dozens of acres. The Zhumen is atmospheric, with high walls outside, and even the guards are brightly dressed, and they are big families at first glance.

However, the Jin family, Le Qi has not seen it yet, but if you think about it, it is about the same.

After a while, the guy came over with a pot of tea on a plate, put it on the table, and said respectfully: "You use it slowly!"

Seeing the guy coming, Le Qi opened his mouth and asked, "Hey, man, do you know where the Jin Mansion is?" Now that he has nearly circled Luoyun Town, he has not seen any trace of the Jin family, so it is better to ask the guy quickly.

"Jin Mansion?" Hearing this, the guy was also stunned, then pointed out the window and said, "That's Jin Mansion!"

Following the direction pointed by the guy, Le Qi found the open door not far away, and on the lintel, there were two big golden characters written on the lintel! Hehe, it seems that he was too tired to notice this. Smiled and waved his hand, signaling that the guy could step back.

Poured a cup of hot tea and tasted it gently, the aroma was faint and fragrant, the entrance was first slightly astringent, and then turned slightly sweet, the intensity was moderate, well, it was a good tea.

Turned around and looked out the window, only to see that the door of the Jin family was open, at this time, there was a long queue in front of the door, at the front of the line, there was a desk, an old gentleman was sitting behind the pen and writing something, it was very lively.

Le Qi was curious about this, but he didn't go immediately, but drank a pot of tea a little warm, and then took Xiao Songguo down the teahouse and walked towards the team in front of the Golden Mansion.

I found a kind-looking man who was queuing up and asked politely, "Friend, what are you queuing up here for?"

The man glanced at Le Qi, and when he saw that he was still polite, he replied: "Don't you know? Two days later, Jin Mengxin, the eldest lady of the Jin family, is going to hold a martial arts competition to recruit relatives, and we are lining up at the gate of the Jin Mansion, so naturally we signed up to participate!"

"Oh, that's right, thank you for informing!" said Le Qi with a smile. It turned out to be this matter, so many people lined up to participate, it seems that the eldest lady of the Jin family is indeed quite likable, and I don't know what she looks like.

When I walked to the front of the team and looked, it was still the old gentleman and a few family members, and I didn't see the eldest lady. It's a pity, but that's all.

Le Qi roughly counted the number of applicants, and at this moment there were more than 30 people, so it is estimated that the number of people who participated in the competition in the end would probably exceed 1,000! Hehe, there is a good show to watch! It's just that in this team, how can there be two or three middle-aged uncles obviously mixed in? I seem to remember that there is a requirement that only young men under the age of 25 can sign up? For example, the next uncle who signs up?

I saw that this person had dark and rough skin, and was full of strong flesh, maybe it was because he was a little lucky in middle age or something, and some loose belly meat couldn't even be covered by clothes, twenty-five years old? Thirty-fifty-five years old is about the same.

Sure enough, the old gentleman glanced up and said, "Those who are older than twenty-five years old will not be registered, and the next one!"

Hearing this, the man smiled unashamedly: "I'm twenty-five years old!

"You look like you're twenty-five years old, do you believe it yourself?" asked the old gentleman, looking up at him, his eyes a little sharp.

However, the man still looked like a shameless scoundrel and said, "I believe it! I am twenty-five years old, but I am just an old man, and besides, you have no evidence that I am over twenty-five years old, right?"

"So, you're trying to stir up trouble?" asked the old gentleman, looking displeased, in an unkind tone.

However, the man decided that there could be no evidence of such a thing as age, so he continued to argue unrelentingly: "Old man, you can't prove that I am over twenty-five years old, why don't you sign me up!"

Seeing this, Le Qi had to admire that this person's face was so thick!

"It seems that you want to stir up trouble in the Jin family?" The old gentleman stood up and opened, and the old man's body exuded a majesty no less than that of the Moon Xuan Realm, and the shriveled old man's mouth moved slightly, but he made a voice full of energy: "Don't get out again!

This sound of Xuan Qi fluctuation actually made the man take two steps back, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly left.

Afterwards, the old gentleman opened his mouth and said to everyone: "Don't let the old man see this kind of person who fishes in troubled waters again, it is reasonable to say that he is twenty-five years old at the age of thirty or forty, and he is also said to be twenty-five years old at the age of thirty or forty, isn't it a shame! If there is such a person again in the future, he will not be spared!"

As soon as these words came out, several people fled in a hurry, apparently preparing to fish in troubled waters like the man before.
