Uncle Tian looked at Zuo Feng's deep, dark eyes and couldn't help but feel a chill. A teenage boy had such a character. It seemed that he could see everything very clearly and had an extremely calm mind. No wonder.
The fifth elder acted completely according to his wishes at such a young age.
With a wry smile, Uncle Tian said: "Yes, it does have a lot of benefits for the city lord. But those benefits are nothing compared to being promoted to a county guard."
"Promoted to Sheriff?"
Uncle Tian nodded and explained: "The city lord is directly appointed by the Yelin Empire, but the commander is appointed by the county guard. The two check and balance each other, so that there will not be a situation where one person is dominant in an area. And three consecutive trials have been completed
There are also some additional rewards for the winning forces. The city lord can have the opportunity to challenge the county guard, and the commander is also qualified to challenge the city lord."
Zuo Feng glanced at Uncle Tian meaningfully and said with a smile: "It seems that in the first two trials, the people from the city lord's side won?"
"I really can't hide anything from you little devil. As you guessed, the city lord's side won the first two trials. So this trial is extremely important to both the city lord and the county guard.
, I think you also understand why the city lord was in seclusion for so long some time ago."
Zuo Feng was also extremely satisfied with Uncle Tian's detailed explanation. In fact, he didn't mind taking action for the City Lord's Mansion, but the premise was that the other party must tell everything frankly like he did today. Even if the other party had no ill intentions, Zuo Feng still
I really don't like the feeling of being kept in the dark.
"Then what will be the benefits if I take part in this trial?"
Uncle Tian hesitated for a moment, but continued: "You got such a big store for less than half the price. Isn't this a huge reward?"
Zuo Feng's expression remained unchanged. This store was originally a little trick used by the other party to lure him into the game. But the fact is that as Uncle Tian said, even if the other party finally loaned him money to buy it, it would only cost less than half of it.
It was just the fee. But after agreeing like this, Zuo Feng still hesitated a little.
As if he saw what Zuo Feng was thinking, Uncle Tian smiled slightly and continued: "Actually, there is still some reward."
Hearing what he said, Zuo Feng immediately became interested, but looking at Uncle Tian's half-smiling look, he also vaguely guessed that the "reward" he mentioned was not that easy to get.
After looking at Zuo Feng's reaction, Uncle Tian continued.
"Each side of our Dongjun County selects four people to participate in the 'Spin Tower Trial'. Our Yancheng side will have twelve people participating. Adding the other two cities and Dongjun City, there will be a total of forty-eight people participating.
Go in. This spiral tower is divided into five floors, and you will get a reward for each floor you go up, so whether you can get this reward depends on your strength."
Hearing this, Zuo Feng finally understood the general idea. It's no wonder that Uncle Tian didn't worry about not working hard. If he wanted to get paid, he would naturally work hard in the trial, as long as he agreed.
can.
Zuo Feng lowered his head and began to think. Uncle Tian was accustomed to the young man's caution and did not bother him. He just stood aside and waited for his answer quietly.
After thinking for a long time, Zuo Feng raised his head and looked at Uncle Tian firmly, and said: "I agree to participate in this trial, when will we set off."
Hearing the affirmative answer, Uncle Tian felt slightly happy, but then he was dumbfounded by Zuo Feng's words. He patted Zuo Feng's shoulder lightly and said, "Young man, don't be so impatient. The trial will be held in three months."
It will be held later, so you can prepare well during this time. If you need anything, you can come to me at the City Lord's Mansion."
Only then did Zuo Feng react. He couldn't help but stretched out his hand and rubbed his nose. He was about to say something more, but at this moment, the happy-looking Fifth Elder walked in from outside with the embarrassed Boss Zhong. Zuo Feng also immediately told the details
He suppressed his intention to ask about the details of the trial. There were still three months left for him to slowly understand the details of the trial.
Boss Zhong had an awkward expression at first, but after seeing Uncle Tian's happy face, he was stunned for a moment, and then hesitantly walked up to Uncle Tian and whispered a few words.
While listening, Uncle Tian's expression changed slightly, and he glanced at the fifth elder, but then he remembered something, turned his head and took a deep look at Zuo Feng. He said lightly: "I didn't expect that it was traded with gold cakes, I still underestimated it.
I have ignored you and underestimated the strength of your Zuojia Village. I hope that among the many forces in Yancheng, your Zuojia Village will also have a place in the future."
After saying that, Uncle Tian strode out without looking back. Boss Zhong turned back and took a deep look at Zuo Feng, and then quickly followed him.
The communication between the two was like a master's game, hitting the mark. This kind of conversation has enough flavor, and the rest is left to the other party to savor. Uncle Tian couldn't help but be impressed by Zuo Feng's intelligence and agility.
With the new evaluation, Zuo Feng also gained a new understanding of this old world.
'Although I don't know how he figured out that the money was related to me, his words before leaving clearly indicated that the city lord's palace would support the expansion of Zuojiacun's power.'
Thinking of this, Zuo Feng couldn't help but feel happy. At first, he only hoped to create some small industries for Zuojiacun, so that he could be self-sufficient and allow the villagers to gain a foothold in Yancheng. But looking at the current situation, it is entirely possible for Zuojiacun to become one of the
Among the major forces in Yancheng, Zuo Feng would certainly not let go of such good deeds.
Looking back at the fifth elder who was still reading the house and land deeds, Zuo Feng couldn't help but smile and said.
"Fifth Elder, I think our next step is to start building our own trading house."
The fifth elder was so shocked by Zuo Feng's sudden words that he couldn't recover for a long time. After a long while, he stammered: "You, you said the trading house...isn't a mountain goods trading?"
Zuo Feng smiled and nodded, and said: "Yes, it is a trading house, and it is a comprehensive trading house that combines trading and auctions. I haven't thought about the specific details yet, but I will tell you my details in detail tomorrow.
idea."
The fifth elder just looked at Zuo Feng with a smile and walked out of the door with his hands behind his back. It took him a while to recover from the shock. But after all, he had lived for such a long time. Thinking of Uncle Tian's words before he left, he seemed to
After understanding something, excitement appeared on the face of the fifth elder.
Zuo Feng is definitely the kind of person who acts vigorously and resolutely. Although he is a novice in terms of business and management, he has a strong backing, which is the support of the City Lord's Mansion.
Since he had agreed to the other party's request, and the two parties were on their honeymoon at this time, and with Uncle Tian's promise, Zuo Feng naturally would not be polite to them. The next day Zuo Feng found Uncle Tian and asked him
Made several "small requests".
The first is to borrow his "good friend" Boss Zhong to be the shopkeeper of the new shop. As Zuo Feng expected, this man is indeed the manager of an industry in the City Lord's Mansion. Instead of letting these outsiders in the village run it
, it is better to simply invite an "expert" in this field. Of course, this boss Zhong must still be under the supervision of the fifth elder.
Later, Zuo Feng proposed to purchase a batch of rare items. Most of the money Zuo Feng brought back was still left. Naturally, the Fifth Elder would not have any objections to taking part of it. And some of the things Zuo Feng mentioned
Rare items cannot be collected in a short time, so he can use this time to reorganize his new shop.
Zuo Feng's purpose is to prepare an auction. If he wants to attract people, it is naturally the most effective way to auction rare items. After his father Zuo Changqing used the elixir brought back by Zuo Feng, it only took five days.
Being able to walk on the ground, with the help of his father, an old carpenter, and the help of the hunting group, the new shop soon became completely new.
In the past half month, Zuo Feng has been running around almost everywhere, often going back and forth between Xinpu and the City Lord's Mansion. Zuo Feng has bought ten more houses at the old house. People in the village no longer need to crowd together as before.
live.
The spacious courtyard behind the new shop has become a training place for Zuo Hou's group of friends. Zuo Hou and Zuo Feng's family also moved into the courtyard behind. As expected, the courtyard is as the boss Zhong said.
The family lives in it and there are two rooms left vacant.
But later there were some new changes. After some trouble with the Fifth Elder, Tengfeng insisted on going to a courtyard. After Zuo Feng found out, he didn't say much and simply allocated one of the courtyards to the hunting group.
.In this way, the young group and the hunting group each occupied a courtyard. Zuo Feng once wanted to leave the last courtyard to Zhuang Yu, but Zhuang Yu insisted on living in the old shop.
Zuo Feng also understood that although the old shop was simple, it was originally purchased by Teng Xiaoyun, and Zuo Feng could only respect her decision. Zhuang Yu also changed greatly. When Zuo Feng went there for the second time
When he looked at her, Zhuang Yu's black hair was all like snow.
After a month of busy work, the old shop was completely organized. An auction hall, two sales rooms and a comprehensive trading hall were all re-decorated. Once the preparations were completed, Uncle Tian personally delivered the goods at the right time.
Zuo Feng did not deliberately lower the price, but Uncle Tian deliberately sold it to Zuo Feng and the others at a price that was 20% lower than the market price.
Although Zuo Feng was grateful, he also knew that this was also a way for the City Lord's Mansion to win over him. So Zuo Feng just declined politely and happily made the handover at the price requested by Uncle Tian.
There were some special materials in this batch of goods, including magnetic spirit stones, iron crystals, and two beast cores of first-level monsters. News of these precious materials spread extremely fast, and by the time of the auction, Zuo Feng
We even saw many people with good cultivation, who were obviously warriors from other empires.
The "Zuo Yun Trading House" in Zuojia Village also officially opened on the day of the auction. The reason why Zuo Feng used the name "Zuo Yun" was because he wanted everyone to remember that everyone in Zuojia Village can have what they have today. Don't forget the old man.
The village chief "Teng Xiaoyun".
Zuojiacun also had a new beginning on this day, and finally had a place in Yancheng.
