The ninth and thirtieth chapter clamps me
With Yichen's support, Tian Tao's status in the Tian family instantly became high.
Tian Tao would naturally discuss the specific details of the auction house with several chief elders.
"Xiao Xuan, how are you doing these days? Let's talk about it."
When he returned to Dujingyuan, Yichen stopped Xiaoxuan who had just entered the door.
"Boss, please let me take a break and take a breath. I've been running all over the capital in three days, and I'm so exhausted."
Xiaoxuan was panting while panting, and her eyebrows were cold, as if she wanted to beat Yichen up.
"Okay, I'll give you a quarter of an hour to rest. I'll wait for your news. There's still a lot to do next."
Seeing Xiaoxuan sweating profusely, Yichen was embarrassed to urge him too much, but he still felt a little disdainful.
With Xiao Xuan's cultivation strength, he had only been running around the capital for a few hours. He gave him three days and was still complaining about being tired.
It seems that this guy is used to being lazy and needs to practice hard.
"Forget it, look at your anxious look. Even if I rest, I will be annoyed by you. Okay, let's talk to you first."
Xiao Xuan picked up a cup of cold water on the table, poured it down hard, wiped the corner of her mouth, and reported to Yichen one by one what she had found out in the past three days.
The top four major families in the capital are the first ones, the Winter family, the second ones, the Feng family, the third ones, the Cui family, and the fourth ones are the Xiao family.
On the surface, these four major families each have two strong war kings, and have many strong war commanders at the level of war commanders.
The Winter family, Winterchi and Winterrey have all seen each other and are very strong.
The Feng family, Feng Liang and his wife, are both powerful war kings. Their daughter Feng Xin also began to attack the war king two years ago. She had failed and it is still unknown whether it is successful.
Cui Long, the head of the Cui family, and his cousin Cui Hu, have already entered the level of the King of War, and their strength is not weak.
The Xiao family, Xiao Zhanhao and Xiao Zhanyuan brothers, among which Xiao Zhanyuan and Yichen fought, and Xiao Zhanhao, as the head of the Xiao family, is estimated to be above Xiao Zhanyuan.
The Winter family is ambitious in these four major families. As the first family in the capital, they have done a lot of things to oppress other families.
The Feng couple are relatively kind, but they act specially. They generally do not bully others by virtue of their power, but they rarely deal with the outside world and always do their own things. Even the court of the Tianluo Kingdom would not deliberately flatter.
Cui Hu, the cousin of Cui Long, the head of the Cui family, has a hot temper and is prone to cause trouble. He often does things that allow Cui Long to wipe his butt.
Although the Xiao family ranks fourth, they are always thinking about how to surpass the Cui family, or even the Feng family, in order to improve the strength of the Xiao family to the second place in the capital.
Among the four major families, only the Winter family and the Xiao family owned large auction houses, which almost monopolized the entire capital and even the auction industry of the Tianluo Kingdom, and thus made countless money.
The other two companies only own medium-sized auction houses. They do not pay attention to the level of the auction house. As long as they operate normally and create enough profits, there is no need to compete with the Winter family and the Xiao family.
Compared with the four major families, the remaining families are much less powerful. Xiao Xuan has not yet found out whether there are any powerful war kings in these families.
As of now, there are at least eight powerful war kings in the four major families. Although they are intrigued by each other, if there is an invasion of foreign enemies, the power of their joint forces will still be quite terrifying.
In addition, on the surface, there is only the butler of the King of War, Li Feng, the strong man of War, but Yi Chen already knows that Prince of Rui's cultivation has also reached the level of the King of War, but he usually hides deeply enough and often appears with a sick body, giving people a weak look.
As for the court officials of the Tianluo Kingdom, Xiao Xuan was inconvenient to inquire and got very little information, but he still had some understanding of General Yan.
General Yan’s cultivation is a powerful war king. Of course, it is not necessary to mention it. Yi Chen had seen it when he was in Tianyun City.
General Yan has two sons, and his eldest son Yan He serves as a general. It is said that he has repeatedly attacked Wang Qiang and failed to succeed, and has been very depressed recently.
The youngest son Yan Chang is less than sixteen years old, and he has reached the critical moment of becoming a coach. His talent for training is beyond ordinary people.
Since General Yan is straightforward and does not stick to minor details, many people know about his general situation.
However, if anyone wants to inquire about General Yan's military management, he has to be careful.
As long as General Yan finds out, he will inevitably be severely punished. Moreover, General Yan will never talk about military affairs on other occasions.
It can be seen that General Yan seems careless, but in fact he has a sense of his own mind. He has already clearly distinguished what should be said and what should not be said.
"Boss, my legs are almost broken. I've just asked so much, don't think it's too little."
Inquiring about news is not about rushing to go. You have to constantly find the forces you want to understand. You also have to carefully analyze the situation you have finally found out and see what is useful and what can be given up.
It’s also a blessing from Xiao Xuan. If Yi Chen had set out on his own, he would probably not have received half of Xiao Xuan’s news in these three days.
Moreover, with Yichen's strength, unless it is invisible for a long time, it will be discovered sooner or later.
Xiaoxuan once sneaked into the four major families including Rui Prince Rui’s Mansion, Winter’s family, Xiao’s family, and General Yan’s Mansion. He even ran around the palace for a walk.
Not to mention that no one was discovered, no one would have thought that Xiao Xuan would come and go freely from them.
"Xiao Xuan, you have a good rest, I have to go out."
Seeing that Xiaoxuan was exhausted, Yichen comforted her for a moment and went out alone.
The capital city, outside the gate of General Yan’s mansion.
Yi Chen was wandering. He had just inquired about it. General Yan was out and would probably return to the general's mansion in one hour.
"Hey, who are you?" A tender voice rang out.
Yichen looked up and saw a young man with a thorny butt sticking out, bent down at the corner of the general's mansion.
Seeing Yichen approaching, the young man raised his head, his face full of dust, and his eyes were open, looking towards Yichen.
"Who are you?"
It seems that the boy is only fifteen or sixteen years old, his face covered in dust is dark and shiny.
I was holding a dead branch in my hand and fiddling something on the ground.
"Don't make noise! I'm busy."
Seeing Yichen ask, the boy felt bored, so he ignored Yichen and continued to stick out his butt and concentrate on playing on the ground.
Yichen was a little curious, walked over, bent down, and saw what this kid was doing.
"Don't come over, be careful to step on my golden cicada."
Although he lowered his head, the boy still felt Yichen approaching and said he would stop him.
"Golden Cicada, what's the thing?"
Yichen stopped and looked at the ground carefully.
A small wooden box that was one foot square was lying quietly on the ground, with two dusty objects inside, wriggling.
It is not big, just the size of a fist, and has three feet on both sides of the body. The pair of big feet near the head is particularly thick, like the big claws of a flying scorpion.
The body is wrapped in a hard golden shell, which is covered with thick gray-brown soil, with only occasionally revealing a little golden shiny light.
"Idiot, the golden cicada doesn't know." The boy said without raising his head, and the dead branches in his hand were fiddling in the soil on the ground.
A hole as thick as a thumb was revealed on the surface of the soil. The boy fiddled carefully, as if he was afraid of destroying something.
The dead branches stretched less than an inch into the hole and gently pried out the soil.
The hole gradually became larger until the arm was thicker. The boy threw away the dead branches, stretched out his fingers, and slowly reached into the hole.
"Huh, why didn't there?"
The boy's fingers were swaying in the hole, but he didn't touch anything. He couldn't help but feel a little strange and couldn't help but mutter.
"Can the cicada be here?"
Yichen bent down and was too tired, so he simply squatted down and looked into the soil with the boy.
Although I don’t know if there is a cicada inside, Yichen was very interested in watching the boy’s seriousness.
"Yes, there should be a big one." The boy responded, and slowly bent down and almost lay on the ground.
Not only the fingers, but also the entire palm was penetrated into the hole, and then the wrists and arms were completely penetrated into the hole.
The entrance of the hole was only the size of an arm, and it seemed to be getting bigger and bigger inside. The boy's entire arm, along with his palm, was stirring in the hole, but there was still no movement in the hole.
"Let me try it."
Yichen was curious and looked at the boy with a smile, looking eager to try.
A gorgeously dressed boy, who was originally a wealthy family, actually lay on the ground regardless of everything, making him covered in mud.
I don’t know if this is really fun or if this child has a problem, what kind of cicada is just a cicada crawler that crawled out of the soil.
Is it necessary to make a big fuss and roll up my sleeves and lift my trousers?
Yichen couldn't bear it anymore, so he walked up and pulled the boy to the side, preparing to find out by himself.
Anyway, General Yan will take an hour to come back, and he is idle even if he is idle. It is better to help the young man do some work. Maybe there is something fun to do.
"Go away!"
The boy was pushed by Yi Chen and struggled a little, but let out a wail.
"I didn't hurt you, why are you screaming?"
Yichen said angrily that the children of wealthy families are just spoiled and scream with a slight touch.
"It's not you, I'm caught by the cicada."
The boy supported the ground with one hand and pulled his body upwards, hoping to pull out the arm in the hole.
However, no matter how hard the boy tried, his little face had already turned red, but he still couldn't pull out his arm.
Beads of sweat as big as beans rolled from the boy's face to the ground, turning the dust into mud, and the gorgeous clothes were dyed in color.
"Hey, how are you doing?"
The boy was filled with pain, which scared Yichen and asked quickly.
It is obvious that the young man's little hand was clamped by the golden cicada in the hole with a large cicada like scissors. No matter how hard the young man used, he could not break free from the golden cicada's cicada.
"It hurts so much, my hand is about to break."
