Chapter 975: Entering the City (2)
After arriving at the city lord's mansion, the sedan chair drivers gently lowered the sedan chair and then opened the sedan curtain.
Wu Lai and his party walked out of the sedan chair. Seeing that everyone got off the sedan chair, Wu Lai said to the sedan chair drivers: "You go to the finance office to get the spar, double, just say that the city lord said it." ”
"Lord of the City, it is our honor to serve you, how can we ask for your spar?" the palanquin drivers said in unison.
Marshal Lucas and Anne were emotional. I didn't expect Wu Lai, the city lord of Tianji City, to have such a high prestige, and he was simply the emperor of Tianji City. Looking at these people's respect for Wu Lai, it is all from the heart. These dozens of sedan chair men, who seem to be powerful, must be cultivators, and judging from the aura they exude, they must not be weak, and they are willing to be coolies. Wu Lai's methods are really clever and powerful.
Wu Lai's face sank, and he said, "Do you look down on this city lord?"
Seeing that Wu Lai seemed to be angry, these palanquin men said repeatedly: "Don't dare!"
"Hmph, since that's the case, let's go get the spar! You originally relied on this to live, and without the spar, how can you improve your strength? I remember that the city lord told you before, what we cultivators are pursuing, it is the way of heaven, not face. If you don't have a spar, if you don't have a magic weapon, how can you improve your strength, how can you survive the tribulation, how can you soar? As long as you can earn a spar, what if you can carry a sedan chair for others? Remember, earning spars to improve your own strength is the most important thing. So, if you have a spar to earn, how can you not want it? Don't be an idiot. Wu Lai educated them again.
Those palanquin men bowed down happily and convincingly, "Obey the teachings of the city lord." At the beginning, they didn't want to be sedan chair drivers, but Wu Lai persuaded them to put down their faces and be sedan chair drivers willingly.
Wu Lai waved his hand and said, "Go, this city lord will never treat a person who supports himself badly, because such a person deserves respect." After speaking, he took Han Xue and the others into the City Lord's Mansion.
These palanquin men were stunned on the spot, and Wu Lai's words echoed in their minds: "Such a person is worthy of respect." Soon, they burst into tears. The lord of the castle said that he respected them, could this not make them excited? Even if they were to die for the lord of the castle now, they would be willing. Wu Lai naturally didn't expect that his words could make these palanquin men work for him.
"Let's go, let's go to the Finance Office of the City Lord's Mansion to get the spars, how can we not listen to the orders of the City Lord?" said a palanquin man. His words were immediately echoed by the crowd.
Wu Lai, who had already entered the City Lord's Mansion, heard the words of the palanquin drivers, and a faint smile appeared on his face. These sedan chair men were able to put down their bodies to be sedan chair men, and they have done it now, their hearts have been honed very firmly, as long as they persist, the future is limitless. When the time comes, they will be a great help to Tianji City.
The entire city lord's mansion is magnificent and solemn. Wang Fei and Song Jian could see that the City Lord's Mansion had arranged a lot of prohibitions, which must have come from Wu Lai's handwriting, because the layout was similar to that of Guanyu Villa, but the techniques were more sophisticated.
Wu Lai finally came back, and Ling Yunzi finally breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't need to take care of the complicated affairs of Tianji City. Tianji City is so big, there are always such and such things in management, Wu Lai and the three ladies are not there, so naturally Ling Yunzi is in charge of the affairs of one qiē. Ling Yunzi had announced to officials at all levels in Tianji City that only major events could be reported to him, and some small things as big as sesame mung beans would not bother him. Despite his announcement, there was always something to report to him every three days. Fortunately, he was originally a civil and military all-rounder, and managing Tianji City was nothing, but he finally worshipped the Qingxu Immortal Emperor as his teacher, and the Qingxu Immortal Emperor was about to return to the immortal realm in the near future, so he wanted to serve the Qingxu Immortal Emperor more. Being disturbed by these mundane things every day, I have less time with my master, and I am naturally unhappy.
"Lingyun, you're in love!" Seeing this situation, the Qingxu Immortal Emperor reminded: "The Heavenly Dao is everywhere, your cultivation has reached a bottleneck, and it is useless to cultivate again, so let's feel the Heavenly Dao more." Dealing with worldly chores can also comprehend the way of heaven. ”
Hearing the reminder of the Qingxu Immortal Emperor, Ling Yunzi woke up like a dream.
Ling Yunzi respectfully saluted the Qingxu Immortal Emperor and said, "Ling Yun remembers the teachings of his master. The Qingxu Immortal Emperor bowed his head and said: "The son can be taught." "For Ling Yunzi, the Qingxu Immortal Emperor is extremely satisfied. Although Ling Yunzi had just survived the last Heavenly Tribulation now, and he was only a late-stage cultivator of the Great Luo Golden Immortal, his future was limitless, and he might not be under the Qingxu Immortal Emperor in the future.
Wu Lai asked Ling Feng to settle Wang Fei and the four of them, while he was pulled to the study by Ling Yunzi. Ling Yunzi couldn't wait to hand over everything to him.
In the past year, Tianji City has made great progress. The Tianji market is even more popular, and the daily income is astronomical. After Wu Lai saw it, he was dumbfounded.
The whole afternoon passed while Ling Yunzi was reporting to Wu Lai. Wu Lai couldn't stop nodding, and finally said, "It's been such a long time, and it's been hard for the Great Elder. ”
"Since the sect master thinks that Elder Ben is hard, let's take it over quickly. Ling Yunzi smiled bitterly.
In fact, Wu Lai is also a hands-off shopkeeper, but seeing Ling Yunzi like that, he had to take over, and he had to take over if he didn't take over. He has already returned, and those officials will naturally report to him instead of going to Ling Yunzi. Of course, he can also call himself a retreat and leave everything to Ling Yunzi and Han Xue. But that would be too shameful to do. Wu Lai wanted to do this, but he couldn't bear it, and he didn't want Ling Yunzi to be cold.
Suddenly, something Ling Yunzi talked about caught Wu Lai's interest. That is, Tianji City is about to hold a large-scale auction.
Tianji City has held several auctions, usually once every three months, but Wu Lai didn't catch up with the first few times, and this auction was three days later, Wu Lai wanted to go and see it in person.
Wu Lai also understands now, no wonder there seem to be a lot of people who have entered the city recently, it turns out that many people are coming for the auction. Now the Tianji Market in Tianji City has become the largest market in the Xiuzhen world, there are many varieties of goods here, the categories are complete, and the prices are affordable, as long as you come to the Tianji Market, you will be satisfied. At the auctions held in Tianji Market, there are usually a lot of very precious auction items, and there are even immortal artifacts that are put up for auction. Therefore, as soon as the Tianji Market announced that an auction was going to be held, cultivators from all over the world would flock to it.
Ling Yunzi saw that Wu Lai was interested in the auction in three days, so he asked tentatively, "Sect Master, do you want to see the finale auction items?"
As the city lord of Tianji City, Wu Lai could naturally see the finale auction items. You must know that he is the big boss behind the Tianji Market, and the entire Tianji Market is his.
Wu Lai nodded and said, "Take a look, maybe there is something that this sect master is interested in." ”
Ling Yunzi immediately asked people to find Director Sun Qi, who was in charge of the Tianji Market.
"Subordinate Sun Qi has seen the city lord! I have seen the worship lord!" After Sun Qi arrived, he saluted Wu Lai and Ling Yunzi.
Unexpectedly, after Wu Lai came back, he was the first person to be summoned, which made him very excited.
Wu Lai smiled and said, "Director Sun, how has the Tianji Market developed recently?" Sun Qi saw Wu Lai asking about the Tianji Market, and immediately talked about it. It has to be said that he has a lot of experience and experience in managing the market, and has also achieved good results.
Listening to Ling Yunzi's report before, Ling Yunzi spoke highly of Sun Qi. Ling Yunzi likes such officials, and he is reassuring.
