Chapter 272 Shufen Re-employment
Yue Yungang knew his nephew very well, and he valued feelings and was indeed good to the people around him, but the good is limited. If necessary, he would definitely do the task of killing his relatives for justice. Just like his adopted mother, he was a ruthless person.
When I was a child, in order to show my feelings in front of Xiao Hou, I deliberately kept a distance from his uncle. When I grew up, I took power and got closer, but I put myself outside the core of the Navy's power.
Although he did not kill the half-ship soldier this time, it had nothing to do with him. With his understanding of him, even if he did not kill him, it would be very likely to be locked up for decades.
So he would rather give up the glory and wealth of the capital and get out as soon as possible. If he wants to stay away from the center, he might as well go south and run all the way to the Blue Flag Kingdom before he breathed a little relieved.
It happened that the local Golden Spear Gate held a gathering of Double Twelve Cultivators. As a nominal disciple of Fatty Lan, before Fatty Lan was arrested, the master generously rewarded him with a lot of spirit stones, which were his chances to turn the tables against the wind.
However, because there are too few people, there must be few opportunities. Liu Bo did not recognize this uncle. He did not know each other when he met each other, but Yue Guogong recognized Liu Bo.
This is the fierce man of the Imperial Power Guard. Yue Yungang suddenly panicked. Good, Hu Lu, no matter how I say it, it is your uncle, who is so relentlessly chasing me. You won’t give me a way out!
Yue Yungang, who had just found the Golden Spear Sect under the guidance of his fellow practitioners in the cultivation world, left here immediately and was preparing to continue south, and must find a place that the imperial court could not find.
Liu Bo did not find Yue Yungang, but found Zhao Xunhuan. The two of them quickly got together and began to conspire in a low voice.
Zhao Xunhuan bowed to the north, "Is my emperor healthy?"
Liu Bo's eyelids twitched. Unexpectedly, this old guy cared so much about the emperor, and he was still much worse.
"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Zhao, Your Majesty is very tough."
Zhao Xunhuan, "It's good if you can be strong."
Liu Bo asked again, "I came late, there are so few people coming to the Golden Spear Sect. What is the attitude of the leader of the Golden Spear Sect?"
Zhao Xunhuan smiled happily, "Of course his face is very bad. Everyone knows that the weather in the south is warm and the climate is pleasant in winter, especially the Blue Flag Kingdom, which is comparable to spring and summer all year round. Therefore, Double Twelve is generally the most lively among the four major gatherings. Not only are the major sects in the south nearby, but also the powerful men from the South China Sea will come, and many northern fellow Taoists will come to the south for winter. As a result, this time, it is not as half as in previous years!"
Liu Bo, "Then they won't be dissatisfied with His Majesty, are they?"
Zhao Xunhuan, "This Golden Spear Sect is located in the Blue Flag Kingdom and has a barrier with the sects in our Dayue territory. I guess I don't know what's going on now."
In fact, they already know it.
In the conference hall of the Golden Spear Gate, the sect leader Kuntai was discussing the matter with the backbone of the sect.
Kun Tai, who was naked and had nine golden dragons tattooed on his body, said, "I have already found out clearly. You know, there is a Xidan Fairy Street in Dayue Capital."
Everyone shook their heads.
Kun Tai, "This fairy street is doing the business of gatherings in the cultivation world, but it opens the door to welcome guests every day, and many casual cultivators have come there. This is the case this year. Next year, the year after tomorrow, if this goes on, there will probably be no one at the gathering."
"Oh, what should I do?" Deputy Sect Master Songpa was worried.
Every time the cultivation world gathers, they make a lot of money. When the sect leader spent thousands of spirit stones to win this opportunity, they thought it was a loss-making business at the beginning, but they didn't expect to make money back in a few years. After that, they made a pure profit every year, and the strength of the Golden Spear Sect became stronger and stronger. They couldn't bear to have such a good life of making money while lying down.
The great guardian Thaksin asked the sect leader, "What fairy street is the business of Emperor Dayue?"
Kuntai nodded, "It should be."
Songpa said disdainfully, "Why is the emperor still involved in such a thing? He is not ashamed to compete with the people for profit!"
A fat man in the field lowered his head embarrassedly, and he believed to look at him, "You can also say a few words to the honorary guardians."
There are three foundation-building monks in the Golden Spear Sect, who are also their three masters, namely the sect leader Kuntai, the deputy sect leader Songpa, and the great guardian Thaksin.
In addition, there is also a honorary guardian of the Golden Spear Gate, Maha, who is the king of the Blue Flag Kingdom where the Golden Spear Gate is located.
The Blue Flag Kingdom is just a small country. The Golden Spear Sect did not seize his throne with the powerful strength of the cultivator. He also gave him the title of honorary guardian and passed on his method of becoming an immortal. He was very grateful, but the price was that he, the king, had no real power in the Blue Flag Kingdom.
King Maha said modestly, "Xiao Wang is talented and knowledgeable, so he won't say anything. You guys will say it, I'll listen."
Kuntai, "If you ask me, just say, we have never seen Emperor Dayue, at least you have seen him."
The Blue Flag Kingdom borders Dayue and belongs to a member of the Dayue tribute system. In the year when the emperor took power, ten years ago, Maha had not yet contacted the cultivation of the realm and went to Yuejing to pay tribute.
Maha, "Then let me talk about the Emperor Hu Lu of Dayue. He was young and agile. He could be said to be a hero of a generation. Before him, there were many frictions between the border between the Blue Flag Kingdom and the Dayu. Our Blue Flag Kingdom did not look down on the strength of the Dayue Border Defense Force. However, after he took office, Dayue changed with each passing day and his national strength increased several times. Since he could govern a country so well, I believe that even if he cultivated immortals, he would definitely be a good player."
Deputy Sect Master Songpa, "Ah, then you can't keep such people. Sect Master, why don't we..."
He gestured to wipe his neck.
Kun Tai scolded, "Silly, do you know how many masters in the cultivation world are around Emperor Dayue? As far as I found out, even the master of Jindan was slaughtered in his palace!"
Not only Songpa, everyone present was shocked, but the great guardian Thaksin even spread his hands, "Since that's the case, we can only accept our fate. Let's find other ways to make money."
At this time, Maha said, "Why don't I go to the capital to explore the situation?"
"oh?"
He explained, "This year, our country's tribute team has set out. If you are willing to send me a trip, you should be able to catch up."
Small countries like the Blue Flag Kingdom send envoys to Yuejing every year to congratulate His Majesty on his life on behalf of him during the Spring Festival.
Although it is necessary to cross mountains and ridges and the journey is long, the mission actually has the attributes of a caravan, which can communicate with each other, so it is actually very cost-effective.
The three giants discussed it for a while and agreed, and Thaksin sent Maha to chase the team.
After Hu Lu had visualized Yue Yungang, Liu Bo and others, he also looked at the people from the Golden Spear Sect.
He had known before that the Blue Flag Kingdom had been controlled by the Golden Spear Sect, which was the sorrow of the small country. A small sect with only three foundation-building monks at the top was undermined.
In fact, they didn't think of doing that at the beginning. It was because Maha began to fear death after entering old age, and then the ridiculous idea of immortality and Taoism. He began to seek immortality and seek Taoism earlier than Hu Lu, and by chance he met the great protector Thaksin.
The Golden Spear Sect was entangled by him before he got into the sect. Later, they found that there was a local king among the sect, and some things were too convenient, so they improved Songpa's status in the sect and gave him a fairy pill to help him refine his qi.
But I have been cultivating immortals for ten years, and I am still only at the second level of Qi refining.
Hu Lu sighed that if his order to seek immortals continued, his court might have led wolves into the house. Fortunately, he introduced the pretty girl Yun Qing.
There are also some cases in the surrounding area like the Blue Flag Kingdom. These kings who are overturned, or the cultivator forces sitting on their necks, may come to the capital with the tribute team later.
Hu Lu smiled happily, and it was just lively.
Finally, the next day, He Kun, who Hu Lu had been thinking about day and night, finally came back and brought money to open the old man.
Regarding Hu Lu, the new boss, the cultivator Qian Kaijie's attitude was very low. Seeing He Kun's big gifts, he thought they would be like this and was ready to kowtow. Hu Lu hurriedly helped the old man up. You are not Kun Kun, so you deserve to kneel down?
"Sir, so polite."
"Oh, courtesy~" Hu Lu pointed it out, Qian Kai hurriedly took out the gift Mr. Wei Yi asked him to bring to the emperor.
Yun Qing leaned over and wanted to see what it was. She also heard from her master that Mr. Wei Yi liked to collect treasures from all over the world. Before, some good things in the Hidden Immortal Sect were coaxed and taken away by old people. What if the things given to Hidden Immortal Sect are given.
However, the gift he gave to Hu Lu this time had nothing to do with the Hidden Immortal Sect, but a ship.
"This thing is called Piaomiao Immortal Boat, which can become extremely huge, accommodate thousands of people on the boat, and it flies very fast, that's it..."
Hu Lu guessed, "It's just that the spirit stones are consumed too quickly, right?"
"That's right, but it's really fast. The master of the sect took me over once, and it felt amazing."
"Thank you, Mr. Wei Yi, for giving me~" Hu Lu accepted with a smile. This is exactly what he needs now.
Yun Qing looked at it and was envious. This misty flying boat was so majestic and domineering. She had seen Wei Yi use it once, but Wei Yi didn't dare to use it too much. She consumed too many spirit stones and couldn't bear it. She had to use it when there were too many people to not feel distressed.
Then Hu Lu asked Qian Kai again, "Have He Kun told you about my thoughts?"
Qian Kai, "I said it, but there is a saying before. I am still Mr. Wei Yi's person now, but my body and mind will be like this in Your Majesty. The main thing that is busy with your Majesty is also your Majesty's business."
Hu Lu had known these things for a long time and pretended to be hesitant, "That's it, that's fine, I wish us a happy cooperation."
Hu Lu returned to the front of the ceremony and wrote a few big words, "Xianbei Pawnshop". This is the name of this new store. As for the pawning model, he discussed with Qian Kai to formulate it, probably the shorter the pawning period, the more money it costs.
For example, a magic weapon worth 100 spirit stones can be pawned at the Xianbei Pawnshop with a minimum age period, that is, a one-year period. Then you can give the other party 80 spirit stones. You only need to take out 100 spirit stones within a year to redeem the treasure.
If you pawn for ten years, you can only give 60 spirit stones. If you get 100 spirit stones in ten years, you can get a maximum of 100 years. However, you may only get 10 spirit stones. At that time, you still have to get 100 spirit stones.
During the pawn period, the customer's pawns must be sealed and the pawn shop shall not use it. After the pawn period, the pawnshop will naturally belong to the pawn shop and can be disposed of at will.
This is the industry rule. Although Hu Lu really wants to break the industry rule and let the pawnshops work during the pawn period, once the industry rule is broken, the credibility will be lost, so this must be strictly followed.
Hu Lu couldn't wait to let the millions of spirit stones in his hand circulate, stimulating consumption, "When are you going to start Lao Qian? I hope the sooner the better."
"No hurry," Qian Kaidanding said, "I will also first sign the Duobao Pavilion in that Xianjie, and then hire someone to watch the store for me. At that time, I can devote myself to the Xianbei Pawnshop."
Hu Lu knew that Wei Yi gave the money to open twenty treasures and asked him to open a store. This trust alone was enough to make people sigh. However, Hu Lu didn't know what the twenty treasures were. He wanted to take a look now, "Maybe I can buy one or two."
Qian Kai shook his head, "If your Majesty really wants to buy it, you can come to the store to buy it, which can be regarded as helping Duobao Pavilion become famous."
Hu Lu didn't insist, so he asked Yun Qing to take the old man down, and he had something to say to He Kun.
"Kun, this time I've done a beautiful job. I'll ask you to take the money to the Immortal Department's office to go to the procedures."
"It's all what I should do, so how dare I say anything trouble." He Kun's attitude was very correct.
Hu Lu asked again, "Mr. Wei Yi is so kind to you. He even gave me such a heavy gift. Is there anything hidden here?"
He Kun, "No, after hearing about Your Majesty's deeds, Mr. Wei Yi admires you very much. Perhaps it is because of mutual appreciation, so he gave him treasures?"
This explanation is not very convincing, but He Kun doesn't seem to be lying. Hu Lu waved his hand and said it's okay.
Outside the door, Qian Kai said to Yun Qing while there was no one around, "Fairy Yun Qing, Mr. Wei Yi asked me to bring you a word."
Yun Qing changed color suddenly, "Do you know me?"
Qian Kai, "I haven't seen it, but I've heard of your deeds."
Yun Qing was very embarrassed. The third-generation head of the Hidden Immortal Sect, and the next sect found out about being a palace maid in the palace!
After it is spread, how can you stay in the Southeast Cultivation World in the future? Let’s just move!
Qian Kai continued, "Sir, Duobao Pavilion and Yinxian Sect are as close as brothers and sisters. What instructions does the fairy have? Never use old money as an outsider, just use it."
Yun Qing was cold and indifferent, "I thanked your husband for me, but you and your husband would better have a door-to-door."
“This is nature, this is nature.”
Soon, Xidan Xian Street welcomed the tenth sect to settle in, and it was the famous and prestigious Duobao Pavilion. The cultivation world was in an uproar for a moment. That was Mr. Wei Yi’s Duobao Pavilion!

On the first day of Duobao Pavilion opening, a recruitment notice was posted at the door, and the requirements were very simple.
"Not a mute, not a fool, he earns 10 taels a month."
Ten-two monthly salary is considered a very high salary. The median monthly salary in Beijing is not even one or two taels of silver, but this can only be considered a drizzle for money. He spends a small amount of money to do big things and is reluctant to hire a cultivator.
Since her grandfather left, Zhao Shufen felt very bored at home. She took the fairy pill and was in great health. She didn't want to enter the retirement state so early. Recently, she frequently went to Xidan Xian Street to meet the cultivators and asked about her grandfather's traces. She happened to see Duobao Pavilion open and recruited, and she was so well treated and could also know the cultivators. So she bravely recommended herself, "Old immortal, can you see me?"
