At noon, on the spacious official road in front of Guangming City, a dusty carriage was slowly approaching.
The driver was a tall man with a somewhat pale face and Dongba hair.
He looked at the huge Guangming City, standing in front of him like a giant, with shock in his eyes.
"Fangzhu, haven't you arrived yet?" A hoarse voice came from behind the carriage.
"Old Hu, there's Guangming City ahead!" Fang Zhu said excitedly, all the fatigue he had been feeling was swept away.
When Old Hu in the carriage heard this, he opened the curtain and looked at the huge city in front of him, with a strong light in his eyes.
"Then the main city of Shaoyang County, compared with Shengping County, is as different as clouds and mud!"
Old Hu looked at the tall gate tower of Guangming City in the distance, his eyes showing surprise.
Guangming City is a huge city with history. Its blue-grey city walls are full of time and vicissitudes.
There are huge crowds of people and it’s very lively.
Fang Zhu drove the carriage to the long line on the left side of the city gate tower to accept the incoming inspection.
"Is there an order to enter the city?" Two soldiers guarding the city stopped the square carriage and asked.
"My lord officer, he did not give the order to come to the city when he came to see someone." Fang Zhu replied respectfully.
Guangming City is the main city of Shaoyang County. If you want to enter the city, you must have a legal reason. If not, you will need a warrant to enter the city.
If this is the rule of a large city, then the population of each city must be coordinated to maintain a balance.
Otherwise, everyone will rush to the big city, and even the True Dragon City will not be able to accommodate such a large population.
"If you don't have an order to enter the city, you can't enter the city. That's not a rule." A soldier guarding the city sneered.
"Leave quickly, don't waste other people's time." He urged. He had seen too many people like that and was already used to it.
"Excuse me, Sir, please be accommodating. They have come all the way from Shengping County."
Fang Zhu smiled flatteringly, and unknowingly took out a one hundred tael silver note and stuffed it into the soldier's leg.
The soldier glanced at the denomination of the bank note and was happy in his heart, but he didn't show any signs of it on the surface.
"Enter." Fang Zhu smiled widely and continued to drive forward.
"Wait a minute." Just when Fang Zhu thought he could enter the city smoothly, a tall and powerful soldier in black armor stopped the carriage with a cold face.
Then he came to the soldier who had received the square pillar silver note.
"Hand it over." The black-armored soldier snorted coldly. The soldier's face was ugly and extremely red, and he tremblingly handed over the one hundred taels of silver notes.
"Boss, he doesn't dare anymore. Even if that person forced himself into his legs, he is innocent."
The soldier turned pale with fright and knelt down to the east, causing a commotion in the east of the city gate tower.
"What are you looking at? If you should go into the city, go into the city. Take another look and seize all my things."
The black-armored soldier gave a cold shout, and no one looked at him again for fear of getting into trouble.
"How many times has he said that if he dares to break the rules of entering the city, he will be punished by fifty and his salary will be deducted for that month."
"As for the two of us, we actually broke the rules of entering the city and disrupted the order."
"Where do we come from and what are we doing in the city?" The black-armored soldier looked cold.
"My lord, the two of them are from Shengping County and are here to look for Jiang Chen." Fang Zhu realized what was going on and looked a little ugly, so he told the truth.
"Shengping County? Jiang Chen?!"
The black-armored soldier was obviously startled when he heard about Shengping County. Then when he heard Jiang Chen's name, a cold feeling suddenly rose in his heart.
"Can't it be such a coincidence?" The black-armored soldier's eyelids twitched. The person the two of them were looking for couldn't really be that person, right?
"Where can we find him?" the black-armored soldier asked again, this time with a hint of respect in his words.
"In reply to your lord, I received a letter from Jiang Chen a few days ago. He is now living in Qingtian Tower." Fang Zhu said doubtfully. Old Hu next to him also had a question mark on his face, but he noticed the change in the tone of the black-armored soldier and had some guesses in his mind.
"Did Jiang Chen do something?"
Hiss!
As soon as Fang Zhu finished speaking, all the soldiers in the entire city gate who heard it took a breath.
Are they really looking for Jiang Chen? The black-armored soldiers felt a chill in their hearts!
"Are you his friend?" His body was trembling, and he couldn't help but have a look of awe in his eyes.
"He, who are we?" Even though he was afraid, he asked one more question.
"If he denies his friends, he will let them come to Guangming City." Fang Zhu said in surprise.
"That's terrible." The black-armored soldier suddenly felt something in his heart. Jiang Chen, who was so murderous, could not be the friend of the two people in front of him.
"What if Jiang Chen finds out, and he actually makes things difficult for his friends..." A cold feeling arose in the hearts of the black-armored soldiers.
If you don't handle the matter well, it will definitely bring you huge trouble!
"It turns out that Mr. Jiang is a friend, why didn't we tell him earlier?" The black-armored soldier showed a forced smile.
"What are you doing standing still? Hurry and pour some tea and water for the two adults." The black-armored soldier ordered, and the people behind him immediately reacted.
He even moved two comfortable soft chairs, poured two cups of tea, and respectfully handed them to Fangzhu Lao Hu.
It was their turn to be a little confused. What on earth did those people want?
"No need, they just want to go to Qingtian Tower quickly." Fang Zhu smiled apologetically.
"My lords, just wait a moment. He, Zhai Mule, will lead the way for you." The black-armored soldier did not dare to waste a moment, and rode a tall horse to personally lead the way.
Escorted all the way, they arrived at Qingtian Tower in a short while.
"Two adults, if I have offended Mingyue, please forgive me." The attitude of the black-armored soldiers was very low, for fear that Jiang Chen would settle a score with them.
Fang Zhu cupped his fists and returned the greeting, then he and Lao Hu looked at each other wrongly.
"What did that kid Jiang Chen do?" Fang Zhu looked surprised.
"We'll find out later."
As they got closer, the surprise in their eyes grew stronger.
"Stop!"
When the two of them approached Qingtian Tower and were about to enter, a cold voice suddenly came from the front, and then two young men with evil faces appeared.
"Qingtian Tower is Mr. Jiang's private place. The rest of the crowd should leave quickly. If not, don't blame them for being ruthless."
Private place? Fang Zhu and Lao Hu glanced at each other wrongly, and they could see the surprise in each other's eyes.
The huge Qingtian Tower in front of me is actually Jiang Chen's private place?
Bu Nao did not deny that Lao Hu was calm. He got off the carriage and said, "Can you please tell me that they are here to look for Jiang Chen."
The two young men looked at each other wrongly, and one of the older young men looked uncertain and asked: "Can you two, Fang Zhu and Lao Hu?"
"True or not." The two nodded.
"Two adults, please come in quickly. Master Jiang has been waiting for a long time!" Upon hearing this, the two young men suddenly showed admiration in their eyes and said respectfully.
…
Qingtian Building, five floors, a magnificent reception hall.
Lao Hu asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Boy Jiang, why did the soldiers guarding the city change their attitude so much when they heard my name?"
"So Qingtian Tower is actually my private place? What happened?"
Shengping County is one of the most remote cities, and information is naturally closed. It is understandable that Lao Hu and the other two do not know what happened to Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen's eyes were full of joy, he looked at Fang Zhu and Lao Hu and said, "That's a long story."
Since Lao Hu and the others wanted to understand, Jiang Chen didn't hide anything and simply told them everything that happened when they came to Guangming City.
However, he hid some secrets about himself.
Half an hour later, Lao Hu and Fang Zhu were already shocked and dumbfounded. In fact, Jiang Chen's experience during that period was nothing short of legendary.
"Boy Jiang, I was too fierce. I dared to chop Zuo Zhongyuan's grandson." Lao Hu gave Jiang Chen a thumbs up.
"He's just protecting himself. He won't attack others unless they attack him." Jiang Chen waved his legs, with a look of helplessness on his face.
"He has been bullied to death, so naturally I beg him to be chopped off." Then he spoke domineeringly.
"The matter is settled. If we are afraid of being implicated by him, we can leave now and nothing will happen." Jiang Chen pondered for a moment and said.
"What did my kid say? Aren't you just Zuo Zhongyuan? I've eaten more salt than I've ever eaten. How can I be afraid?"
Although Fang Zhu's face looked ugly, seeing that Old Hu had expressed his stance, he remained silent for a moment and nodded seriously.
"Then he'll be relieved." Jiang Chen smiled. He was really afraid that Lao Hu and Fang Zhu would escape.
"Lao Hu, am I not keen on all kinds of research?"
"I own all the east and west floors of Qingtian Building. He has already had people sort them out. There are all kinds of things that interest me in them for my research."
"Whatever I want to ask for, just ask."
"Excellent." Lao Hu responded happily, wishing he could go to the east room of Qingtian Tower now.
"Fang Zhu, let me take care of all the land deeds for the 120 shops in Central Street, East District." Jiang Chen took out a lot of land deeds and handed them to Fang Zhu.
"Use our capabilities to earn all kinds of resources within our capabilities." Jiang Chen said seriously.
"Although the great feudal country is peaceful now, he has a premonition of what will happen to Juecuo in the future. They have to make preparations while they have plenty of time now."
When Lao Hu and Fang Zhu heard this, they glanced at each other wrongly and nodded solemnly.
"After a while, Zhang Hong and others will come over, and he will ask them to assist us. As for how far we can do it, it depends on our performance."
…
Time also passed by unconsciously. In those few days, Jiang Chen sold a lot of elixirs and two spiritual weapons, and finally collected more than 300 spiritual crystals.
Adding to the original more than one hundred, he now has more than five hundred spiritual crystals in his legs, which is a huge resource.
Even if the spiritual crystal is useless, he can still exchange it for the Thunder Tribulation Liquid, and he is bound to win it at this auction.
Seven days later, the auction held by Zhenbao Pavilion finally began.
"when……"
The long bell rang and spread throughout Guangming City. The sound of the spiritual weapon bell in the Zhenbao Pavilion informed everyone in Guangming City that the auction was about to begin.
Whenever such a bell rings, the entire Guangming City will be in a state of shock, and this place is no exception. Many people have strange lights in their eyes and head towards the Treasure Pavilion.
Outside the Zhenbao Pavilion Palace, the first floor was almost full at the moment, and many powerful people came here one after another.
When Jiang Chen entered, the beautiful woman Yun Niang who entertained him before was also there at this time.
Outside the main hall, he was chatting and laughing happily with a few familiar monks. Suddenly his eyes flashed and he saw Jiang Chen, his beautiful eyes brightening slightly.
She quickly went to say goodbye to the monk next to her, walked a few steps quickly, and stood next to Jiang Chen. She said respectfully: "Young Master Jiang, please come to our pavilion. The place is very messy, so please stay with him on the third floor."
Mingyue's Yun Niang's temperament is revealed. The ruby bracelets on her wrists highlight her snow-like skin, and her feet are decorated with precious stones in a pair of gilt shoes.
Her beautiful eyes moved around, like a fairy who could not eat the fireworks of the world. A smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, as ethereal and gorgeous as fireworks.
Many people around were slightly surprised, asking to know that Yun Niang held a high position outside Zhenbao Pavilion, had a bright future, and was neither humble nor overbearing in her interactions with others.
The scene in front of him was really rare, so many people looked at Jiang Chen.
When they saw it, everyone was immediately shocked.
In their eyes, Jiang Chen's cultivation level was no different from that of ordinary people, and there was no aura fluctuation in his body.
But what cannot be seen through is often because of the poor level. How can the person who is likely to be received by Yun Niang personally when he comes there, be an ordinary person.
"That Wei Yuanzi looks familiar. I seem to have seen him somewhere before." A young man outside the hall looked at Jiang Chen's departure and muttered hesitantly to himself.
On the other side, the beautiful woman Yun Niang was leading the way. As she walked on the steps, her figure was constantly swaying.
The back of her body trembled, not to mention inadvertently revealing the amazing body curves.
"Good-looking bodies are all the same, but interesting souls are unique."
"A woman will affect the speed at which he draws the sword."
Jiang Chen looked at it calmly, but kept thinking about it in his heart.
After Yun Niang led Jiang Chen to the third floor, there were ten private rooms on the entire third floor, and each private room was extremely luxurious.
Is there an area reserved exclusively for distinguished guests in the Zhenbao Pavilion? Obviously, in the eyes of the Zhenbao Pavilion, Jiang Chen deserves to have a private room reserved for Jiang Chen.
After she brought Jiang Chen to the private room No. 10, and stayed with him for a while, she took the initiative to leave.
When Yun Niang walked out of the private room, in the east of the bright light, her face was as crystal clear as jade, like a crescent moon, and she was extremely beautiful.
As early as ten days ago, Zhenbao Pavilion had a strong interest in Jiang Chen, and since Jiang Chen no longer had the status of a patrolman, Zhenbao Pavilion naturally wanted to win over Jiang Chen.
Then Yun Niang tried to test her, but Yun Niang never thought that Jiang Chen's determination was so strong.
It was actually very easy to stay awake despite the intrusive attack.
This made Yun Niang feel a little angry. Since she was a smart woman, she naturally didn't go too far and stopped.
"Interesting Mr. Jiang."
Yun Niang glanced at the private room where Jiang Chen was and murmured to herself.
Outside Jiang Chen's private room on the third floor, disciples from the Zhenbao Pavilion brought precious specialty fruits, but Jiang Chen did not touch them.
When he was walking in the private room, he had to look east and see a platform in the middle of the main hall on the first floor.
That's where the auction will be held soon.
After a while, outside the main hall on the first floor, the beautiful Yun Niang walked on the platform.
At this moment, she had changed into a lavender dress, and her body was embroidered with small pale pink gardenia flowers.
Her hair was casually pulled into a loose bun, with a lavender hairpin inserted sideways, making her look somewhat casual yet elegant.
Apply a little powder and make your lips not reddish.
She came to the central area of the platform and said with a smile: "Dear guests, thank you for your long wait. The Zhenbao Pavilion auction has officially begun..."
As soon as these words came out, the entire hall immediately fell silent. Everyone looked expectantly, waiting for the first precious item to be auctioned.
