At the Governor's Mansion, Chen Ping said with a surprised look on his face: "Uncle Master, are you going to travel far?"
Lin Ze nodded and said: "That's right, I have to go away for a month for something. Young master and I are not here, so I will leave all the affairs of Shu to you."
Then Lin Ze added: "Anyway, when the young master and I are here, you are basically the one handling it."
Chen Ping...
After a few breaths, Chen Ping regained his composure and said, "I wonder when Uncle Master plans to leave?"
Lin Ze thought for a while and said: "I will explain everything today and leave tomorrow. By the way, I will take all the remaining four sixth-rank guest ministers in the Governor's Mansion with me this time. If anything happens to Shu,
, if you need a sixth-grade warrior to take action, you can ask the two elders of Tianshi Dao and the two elders of Jiange. If they are not enough, you can ask the Ba family to help."
"Before I leave, I will say hello to them and ask them to try their best to cooperate with you."
Chen Ping coughed lightly and said, "Why did Uncle Master tell them about his long journey? Doesn't it need to be kept secret? Will this be detrimental to Uncle Master?"
Lin Ze said seriously: "After I leave, there will be only one sixth-grade warrior in the Governor's Mansion, Sikong Ma. It will inevitably fall into emptiness. If I don't know them, I'm afraid something will happen."
Chen Ping said slightly sadly: "Are you afraid that they have other ideas?"
Lin Ze said calmly: "They don't dare." His calm tone revealed strong confidence.
Chen Ping thought about it carefully and said: "They really don't dare. I'm afraid they will go against the will and refuse to contribute."
"That's why I need to inform them. If they don't know, they may refuse to know and watch the interests of the Governor's Mansion suffer. If I inform them and they still dare to pretend to be stupid, they will naturally not do it when I come back.
Let them have an easy time," Lin Ze said calmly.
Chen Ping raised his hands to Lin Ze and said, "Since my uncle has thought everything about it, my nephew will definitely protect this place of thousands of miles for my uncle."
Lin Ze gently patted Chen Ping on the shoulder, turned and left.
…
In the Chenghou Mansion, a servant reported to the widow Qing and Ba Qiangtong: "Old Madam, Lord Marquis, the right admiral Lin Ze is outside asking for an audience."
After hearing this, Ba Qiang turned around and saw his mother and asked, "It is said that Lin Ze usually lives in seclusion. Why did he come to my Ba family today?"
Widow Qing said confidently: "No matter what his intentions are, you will know as soon as he comes in and asks. Qiang'er, although this Lin Ze is young, he is the admiral of Shu after all. Go and welcome him in."
Bach Qiang nodded and stood up, welcoming Lin Ze into the living room.
Lin Ze bowed respectfully to the widow and said, "Young man has met the old lady."
Lin Ze was secretly frightened. He had never noticed it before. After being promoted to the sixth level, his senses were much stronger. This widow Qing looked like an ordinary old woman. The aura of her body was probably the same as those who Lin Ze had met in the Dao Palace.
The powerful elders are comparable, and their strength is unfathomable.
Unexpectedly, Widow Qing was also shocked. If she remembered correctly, when she first met Lin Ze more than three years ago, Lin Ze was still at the fifth level of martial arts. However, after more than three years, the aura he exuded
He is clearly at the sixth level of martial arts. Such talent is truly terrifying.
Then Widow Qing showed a kind smile, looked at Lin Ze and said, "Young man, how come you have time to see me, an old woman, today?"
Lin Ze responded with a smile: "As the saying goes, don't go to the Three Treasures Palace if you have nothing to do. Of course, when I come here, I have something to ask the old lady for help."
Widow Qing pretended to be confused and said: "Oh, with the young man's wisdom and bravery, is there anything that can't be solved? Let me tell you, if the old lady can help, I will definitely not postpone it."
Lin Ze generously told the story about Hu Hai leading his troops outside and that he was going on a long trip again. Finally, he handed over his hands and said: "For some time in the future, the Governor's Mansion will be relatively empty. If a major event breaks out in Shu, the Governor's Mansion may not be able to solve it."
, if there is any need for help from the Chenghou Mansion, I hope that the old lady will not hesitate to take action."
Widow Qing laughed and said, "Don't worry, young man. Considering the relationship between the Ba family and Mr. Hu Hai, the Ba family will naturally not stand idly by."
Lin Ze laughed and said, "The boy would like to thank the old lady first."
The smile on Widow Qing's face became brighter: "Young man, you don't have to be polite. As a well-known family in Shu, my Ba family is naturally the business of my Ba family."
Lin Ze cupped his hands and said, "With the old lady's promise, I can rest assured. I don't want to disturb the old lady's purity too much. I'll take my leave."
Widow Qing quickly persuaded her to stay: "Young man, why don't you have lunch at the mansion before leaving?"
Lin Ze was slightly stunned. Ever since the last time he ate thirty kilograms of the Ba family's treasured tribute rice, Widow Qing had never stopped him from eating. Why did he change his temper today?
Lin Ze soon figured it out. Without him, he was just a sixth-grade cultivation level.
Under the Grand Master, those at the sixth level of martial arts are the top group of people in this world. As expected, their treatment is different.
However, Lin Ze didn't want to spend more time with the meal. He bowed his hands and said apologetically: "The boy is going on a long journey tomorrow. There are still many things to be handed over in the Governor's Mansion, which is really inconvenient. When the boy comes back from the trip, I will personally pay my respects to the old lady.
How about a toast to apologize?"
Seeing that Lin Ze was so knowledgeable, Widow Qing naturally replied happily: "Young man, please do as you please. I'm waiting for your safe return."
Lin Ze bowed slightly and strode away.
Widow Qing immediately said to Bachchan beside her: "In the transaction between the Ba family and Hu Hai, the price of all goods will be reduced by another 10%."
Ba Qiang was stunned and asked in confusion: "Mother, why is this? If you reduce the price by 10%, my Ba family will lose a lot of gold. The clan elders have already provided you with ore and other materials for Hu Hai at 70% price.
I am dissatisfied, but I didn’t say anything because of Hu Hai’s special status. Now, if it is sold at 60% price, the clan elders may be even more dissatisfied.”
Anger flashed across Widow Qing's face and she said, "If you have any objections, let them come to me. They are a bunch of short-sighted people. Didn't you see that Lin Ze is already at the sixth level?"
Bach Qiang was puzzled and said: "You can see it, but what does sixth level mean? Aren't my mother and I both? Although there are not many sixth-level warriors in my Ba family, there are probably about twenty, mother
Just for this reason, do you have to lower the price?”
The widow said, "Is this how you calculate it? How old is Lin Ze and how old are you and me? Don't you know? A sixth-grade warrior is certainly not worth the 10% price, but a future grandmaster is worth a lot."
"
"How did our Ba family become a long-lasting martial arts family in Shu? Isn't it because your mother and I would rather bankrupt our family and support His Majesty's conquest of the Six Kingdoms? Without Your Majesty's acquiescence, the Ba family could become a hegemon in Shu.
, even the governor of Shu can not care?"
"Money is an external possession. Compared with the longevity of the family, it is nothing more than something that can be thrown away."
Bachchan was silent.
…
Lin Ze walked out of the Ba family easily. In fact, he was not too worried that the Ba family would not take action. You must know that Hu Hai has given countless orders to the Ba family. If there is a problem in Shu, our own side, headed by Hu Hai, will naturally be worried.
If they reduce their expenses, the Ba family will also lose a lot of income.
Moreover, the foundation of the Ba family is in Shu. If Shu is in chaos, the Ba family will naturally suffer the consequences. Therefore, the Ba family will not just sit back and watch the chaos in Shu.
Why did Lin Ze take such unnecessary action? Of course, it was because he wanted to minimize losses.
As for why Lin Ze thought there would be chaos in Shu?
Yesterday, when Lin Ze was running "Knowing the Destiny" and predicting his trip to Mount Tai, he vaguely saw some pictures, and there would be some chaos in Sichuan.
It's not that Lin Ze doesn't want to predict what trouble will happen in Shu, but since "Knowing the Destiny" was automatically activated once three years ago, Lin Ze found that he could only activate the "Knowing the Destiny" once a month, and it would also increase his vitality.
hurt.
…
After greeting Tianshi Dao and Jiange, Lin Ze simply packed his luggage and headed towards Mount Tai with four sixth-grade guards and fifteen Jinyiwei elites headed by Wu Fan.
After half a month of traveling, Lin Ze and others arrived at the Dongshan Province.
