Chapter 202: The bird flies back to its hometown, and the fox will die.
"I don't understand what Brother Shi is saying."
Chu Qianqiu put down the tea cup and said a little funny.
"In Baixiang Town, there are county offices, squires, sects, wealthy businessmen, and military officers. It's never my turn to make the decision."
"Hey, Brother Chu, why did you bully me?"
"I'm in Chunfeng Tower, cough cough."
"I met an elder brother at the inn. He wanted to go to the Wang family to do something, but the head of the Wang family refused him, saying that he needed Brother Chu's consent."
Cao Zizhen waved his hands repeatedly, saying that our friendship has been for generations, a friendship left by our fathers from the beginning. It’s okay if you don’t want to help, so why bother fooling me like this?
"Brother Shi, I misunderstood. I do have some friendship with the head of the Wang family. It seems that the Wang family was unwilling to agree to that friend's request, so it was blamed on me." Chu Qianqiu smiled, why did he feel a bit like the Godfather of Baixiang Town?
feeling.
Now, even if Chu Qianqiu is sitting at home, there are always a lot of people begging to come to his door.
"Really?" Cao Zizhen couldn't help but hesitate.
"Brother Shi has a lot of friends, and I can't be sure whether they are true or not. How about inviting someone over to talk about it?" Chu Qianqiu said with a smile. He himself is not the kind of person who is particularly sociable. If Cao Zi really has this ability, he will.
A very good choice.
It will also help you deal with a lot of things in the future.
Poor Cao Zizhen still wants to be dissolute, Chu Qianqiu is already thinking about how to make him a subordinate to work for him.
"That's natural. That person is the deacon of Longhu Trading Company. Brother Chu won't mind, right?" As soon as Cao Zizhen said it, he felt regretful again.
After all, the relationship between the Shenwei Army and the Longhu Sect is quite bad. Generally speaking, Longhu Trading Company also does business in the Buddhist Kingdom, but its name has been changed, and it is called Beidou Trading Company.
"Deacon of Longhu Trading Company? Are you joking?" Chu Qianqiu seemed to remember this name and had some business dealings with the Huang family.
"Master Chu, the Tan family is a famous family in Shazhou, Daxia, and is one of the founding families of the Yuxiao Sect."
Wang Yuan, standing aside, worked hard to perform his duties as a personal guard. As the direct heir of the Wang family, he had a very detailed understanding of the major families and sects in the world.
"The great Xia family is at its peak, and the dynasty is full of power. For example, the two direct families of the Dragon and Tiger Sect, the Li family and the Ge family have produced countless talents."
"I really don't know when I will be able to have such a situation."
When Wang Yuan mentioned Daxia's aristocratic family, his face showed a bit of envy, but then he realized something was wrong and said calmly:
"Master Chu, that [Tanxiaowu] is not a true disciple of Yuxiao Sect, but he comes to work at Longhu Trading Company. I guess he is not a core figure in the family."
"That's it. I had a great time chatting with Tanxiaowu. He is a funny man and I really want to come and pay homage to Brother Chu." Cao Zizhen quickly agreed and looked at Chu Qianqiu with hopeful eyes.
"Brother, you don't have to be so polite, but it doesn't matter." Chu Qianqiu took a sip of tea. Now he receives guests every day. One more or one less doesn't matter.
"Brother Chu Gaoyi, I'm here to invite brother Tan." Cao Zi really likes to make friends. He has only met him a few times, but he can still talk and laugh as a friend. He doesn't know whether the other person is smart or just old-fashioned and warm-hearted.
.
Soon, the deacon from Longhu Trading Company appeared in the reception hall.
He is not very old and has a slightly ordinary appearance. He is much inferior to the romantic and suave Cao Zizhen, let alone a handsome man like Chu Qianqiu.
However, he was dressed in gold, silver, and jewels, and looked more like a rich man than a deacon of a business firm. The smell of powder on his body was probably much stronger than the smell of copper.
"Mr. Chu, I would like to thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to meet me."
"I wish you and Miss Huang to have a son soon, and please accept this gift."
Talking and laughing, he seemed very polite, without any frivolity like a young master. When he came to ask for help, he naturally prepared a gift.
Wang Yuan immediately stepped forward, helped hold the gift, checked it gently, and then ran to Chu Qianqiu's ear in surprise and whispered.
"Sir, this is the elixir [Baijing Pill]."
"You are very considerate, this thing is not cheap."
"No reward for no merit, Mr. Tan, it's better to explain the matter clearly first."
Chu Qianqiu bought [Baijing Pill] once before. To be honest, it was extremely expensive. The normal price of one pill was 30,000 taels. Although the price of pills is now exaggerated, this [Baijing Pill] must be exaggerated.
The most powerful one.
So he motioned to Wang Yuan to put the gift aside first.
"Don't worry, Mr. Chu, it's just a matter of effort."
"If you are willing to help me with this, you will be a friend of our Beidou Trading Company." Tan Xiaoxiao looked very humble, not at all like a disciple from a top sect.
Even the outer disciples of the Dragon and Tiger Sect have their own pride, but there is no arrogance in Tanxiaowu, only a humble and flattering smile.
"But it doesn't matter." Chu Qianqiu said calmly, imitating his father-in-law's negotiating tone and expression.
"The Dragon and Tiger Faction hopes to redeem the bodies of Li Chengxin and others." Tan Xiaoli suddenly dropped an explosive news.
"Brother Tan, you..." Cao Zizhen never expected such a request, and he was completely confused.
"I'm sorry, Brother Cao. I'm here just for Miss Li's body."
"Be bold!"
"Sir, this is an obvious Daxia spy. I will capture him immediately."
When Wang Yuan heard this, he immediately stepped forward and drew his sword to show his loyalty.
He is a smart man who always shows his loyalty on various occasions and is commonly known as an actor.
That Tanxiaowang was the deacon of Longhu Trading Company. Normally speaking, he was just a master of energy accumulation. To Wang Yuan, he was a soft persimmon that could be pinched.
"Xiao Wang, calm down." Chu Qianqiu casually pulled back the acting sect, and then asked in a deep voice:
"I remember that Li Chengxin's body was disposed of by the Wang family."
"We want to take her ashes, but the Wang family doesn't agree." Tan Xiaowan said with a sigh.
"Ashes will return to dust, dust will return to dust. She came to our court to kill people, so she was naturally prepared to be killed. Why would the Dragon and Tiger Sect bother to do this?"
Tanxiaowan shook his head and performed a very solemn etiquette:
"Lord Chu, as the saying goes, a tree is thousands of feet tall; its leaves fall back to their roots; birds fly back to their hometown; and when a fox dies, it must head to the hilltop."
"Although Li Chengxin did his own thing and sneaked into Shenwu for his own selfish purposes."
"But after all, she is a citizen of Daxia, and the Li family of Qixing City is full of loyal people. How can we not let her return to her hometown?" She has an ordinary appearance, but she has the talent to distinguish between scholars.
There was also a sense of generosity and tragedy, which even moved Cao Zizhen.
Although Daxia and Shenwu have different beliefs, they both value the remains. Taoism has a martyrdom garden and Buddhism has a pure land, both of which are used to bury the dead. The Longhu Sect took advantage of Chu Qianqiu's wedding to put forward these conditions, which was a shrewd one.
The method will not make him open his mouth.
Chu Qianqiu nodded:
"Returning the bones is reasonable, but this [Hundred Essence Pill] is more polite."
"I will ask Xiao Wang to tell the head of the Wang family to be more liberal."
"Thank you, Mr. Chu, for your kindness." He said with tears of gratitude. Strictly speaking, people like Li Chengxin who fought behind the scenes would not return corpses like they did on the frontal battlefield.
It's just that the relationship between the Divine Power Army and the Dragon Tiger Faction cannot be at odds for the time being. Maybe the Divine Power Army will rebel in the future and everyone will become good friends and can fight side by side.
