Bai Qingqian found for him a total of forty-three thunder artifacts. If they were replaced by ordinary Five Elements objects, this number would be nothing. However, thunder artifacts are relatively rare and precious. It can be seen that so many were collected. This is a waste of effort.
He almost got the whole company involved, he couldn't avoid this favor.
Among the forty-three thunder magic weapons, he picked out fifteen; his method of selection was very strange. He did not choose based on value, but based on the operating mechanism. If the method of transporting thunder was similar, he would choose one. .
What he wants to learn is how to transport thunder, rather than actually using these weapons to fight.
The rest will be handed over to Bai Qingqian for sale. The price of lightning artifacts on the market is very high now, so this is a good deal.
In the evening, Bai Qingqian cooked for him personally and held a banquet for him. He could vaguely see the woman's thoughts, but there were some things that he couldn't indulge in.
He hopes to have a business name behind him, but if he also becomes the owner, that's another matter.
very messy.
She is a good woman, but in his heart he can never let go of another woman who beats and scolds him at every turn, who also has a mean temper.
talk later.
The next day, everything was as usual in Mirage City; Baiji continued to operate as usual, the landlord never mentioned the price increase again, and the commercial tax inspection ended without any resolution; on the contrary, Fuyunlai Company was liquidated and purged, and everyone watched indifferently, and they could probably tell something.
As for the murderer, what day doesn't one or two similar incidents happen in the mirage? It's just grudges and disputes between monks. Jiedu Mansion will not take care of these small things, can it handle it?
Rumors will always remain rumors, cannot be binding, and will gradually fade away over time;
The most important thing at the moment is that although Bai Ji has come back to life, Fu Yun Lai has collapsed. This is a piece of meat that is fatter than Bai Ji. It has business dealings with countless shops in Mirage. If you don't seize the time to grab a piece of meat, you will be worthy of Ping Ping. How many times have we been friends?
This is how it is in the business world. If one family loses, a group of people will attack. How can there be any benevolence and righteousness?
Before entering Jiedu Mansion, he needed to find an island for himself. It had been nearly five years since he came to Li Zhihai, and he still had at least two more years to stay. He couldn't just waste his time in the mirage.
In a palace, a man with a smile handed over a thunder magic weapon, which was of considerable value.
Zhu Changwen did not answer, with a wary look on his face, "I don't dare to ask for Junior Brother Hou's things, for fear that I will lose my life in the future!"
Hou Zi put the things gently on the table, "Brother, why did you say this? You all understand the situation, the cycle of cause and effect, and the laws of nature are clear. You should know that, brother, I am not a moody person.
I still have something to ask Senior Brother, if you don’t accept the gift, how can I open my mouth?”
Zhu Changwen sighed. If you get involved with this guy, you won't be able to get away for the time being. It doesn't seem to matter. Jiedu Mansion has no negative comments about this person. On the contrary, because of his pleasure in grudges, many people secretly give him thumbs up.
You don’t know how to plot against him, so why are you afraid?
"Let me talk about your request first, and let me see if I can do it. There are not many opportunities in Lizhi and offshore, and there are many forces and interests involved, so I can't force the appointment."
Hou Zi had a lot of free time, "I'm not asking for a job. Our Quanzhen Sect's reliance on foreign objects is limited, and senior brother knows that. But it's hard to get used to it. I'm only familiar with the sea near Crab Claw Island. Senior brother, please help me take a look." ,Are there any free islands nearby?
It’s best if there aren’t many things going on, it’s quiet enough, and everything else doesn’t matter.”
Zhu Changwen was stunned and said angrily: "Then if you ask for that, why do you have any choice? Just go back to Crab Claw Island."
Hou Zi was surprised, "It's been several years, and there's still no island owner assigned to that place?"
Zhu Changwen explained, “Part of the shell field was destroyed, and the output is far lower than before. It will take many years to fully restore the previous output. It is also an ominous place, so no one wants to come in recent years, so it has been idle.
If you are willing, it is very simple to go to that place; if you have nothing serious to do, just take care of your own cultivation."
Hou Zi laughed loudly, "That's it, it's best if nothing happens. I'm the most annoying task, which makes people's time cut into pieces. It's very annoying!"
Zhu Changwen didn't ask too many questions. His preference for the waters of Crab Island must have his own purpose, but it was nothing else. In the world of cultivation, everyone has their own secrets, and we must learn to ignore them indifferently.
When they were about to break up, he didn't know whether it was because the gift hurt his heart, or someone asked him to pass the message on his behalf, so he added a few words,
"Although Lu Shilun and I are not friends, we live in the same Jiedu Mansion and have regular contacts. In my opinion, this person has a reserved personality and is not a troublemaker. Some things may not be what he means.
He doesn’t have many friends in Mirage, but there are only two who can be called loyal, one is Dai Guan from Fengxing Trading Company, and the other is Wen Yitong from Lianshan Chamber of Commerce..."
Zhu Changwen just hit the nail on the head, but the meaning is actually very clear; Fengxing Chamber of Commerce is from the Quanzhen background of Shan State, so of course there will be no problem; but Lianshan Chamber of Commerce is a big business name from Wu Clan, which is actually what Zhu Changwen wants to express.
Hou Zi smiled but said nothing, said goodbye to Zhu Changwen, and walked out of the house.
Wu Men, this is an old rival, he is not surprised.
But outside Jiedu Mansion, he saw an unexpected acquaintance.
Duanmuzhen walked up to him, looked up and down, and then nodded.
"Very good! If you die in the mouth of a killer whale, there is no place to put your face. It would be best if you can come back. I think your cultivation has also improved a lot. Not bad, not bad."
Looking at his tired appearance, Hou Zi was a little moved. He vaguely saw in him a trace of the old senior brother Yin Ling Xiang Zhiwen. He was so impatient and righteous, running around for his junior brother, but he was always a kind person.
He looked cold and cold, keeping strangers away from him.
"Senior brother, the killer whale can't kill me yet. It was just this wave that took me away and almost drifted into the deep sea, and I almost couldn't come back."
Duanmuzhen stared at him, as if he wanted to take charge of the family for him, "I heard that you didn't pursue the charges against the Jiedu officials? What do you think? I, the Quanzhen Sword Cultivator, always avenges me.
, you can’t kill him overnight; it will be good if you make that vote when you come back, but it is not complete! Now that you have spared that guy, is it because the Jiedu government is putting pressure on you? "
Of course Hou Zi won't mind his feelings as a senior brother. It's better to have someone who is willing to protect you than not at all.
"Never! Senior Wang Chuquan also discussed it with me. Jiedu Mansion wants to save face, I want benefits, and everyone can get what they need."
Duanmuzhen looked at him doubtfully, "What benefit do you have? Just for a Baiji business name?"
Hou Zi did not deny it, "Bai Ji is only part of the story. As for the truth of the matter, as long as Lu Shilun is alive, he will know sooner or later!"
Junior brother, I am timid and don’t want to know too much about the things above. When I reach a certain realm, I will ask about the secrets of that realm. It’s a bit early to ask now.”
Duanmuzhen nodded slightly, gaining a deeper understanding of this junior brother whom he was not very familiar with; he was a person who kept his pride hidden in his heart, and handled his own affairs by himself, and was unwilling to trouble others.
The meaning of his words is very clear, that is, you can take revenge as long as you have the strength. This matter is just the beginning, and it is far from the end.
"In this case, you have made up your mind to just open your mouth if you need anything. Don't think that if you don't ask for help, people won't bother to come to you!
Let’s go and find a quiet place to drink!”
Hou Ting tied up his hands and said, "It's too noisy outside. Junior brother, I have a good place to go. The food and wine are hardly unique."
