Yang Lu knew that not all of the "Haiya Chamber of Commerce Merchant Ships" in Hanguang City came from the Haiya Chamber of Commerce.
Some of these are from small local chambers of commerce, and some are the vests of other large chambers of commerce. After all, the method of flying Panamanian flags on ships from various countries to avoid policy supervision is not unique to the earth. At least Yang Lu knows that.
The Haiya Chamber of Commerce often lends its flag to other chambers of commerce with better relationships, allowing them to secretly come to the Han Lightsaber Sect's territory to do business. The Haiya Chamber of Commerce sometimes borrows the flags of allied chambers of commerce to do similar things.
Looking out from the main palace of Hanguang City, the snow-capped mountains rising from the ground and the port with a ten-month ice-free period echo each other from the south to the north, rendering the city particularly magnificent and beautiful.
The gathering of merchant ships added a touch of fireworks to this important town in the North. Along the way, you can see small vendors selling exotic goods from overseas. Representatives from other settlements in the Arctic state came to purchase bulk daily necessities.
There are also out-of-town cultivators who go in and out of various cultivation resource stores to select goods.
Among them there are even Zhongzhou cultivators like Yang Lu, and most of them are Shuilinggen cultivators.
As we all know, most of the ice-attribute magic weapons in the Kyushu world come from the Arctic State. Most cultivators are not as rich as Yang Lu. When buying magic weapons, they have to spend every penny. In order to prevent the middlemen from making a profit, many people do not hesitate to do it in person.
Come to the Arctic State for a trip and help yourself and your friends and family make purchases.
In addition to these water spirit root monks from all over Kyushu, Hanguang City is also the headquarters of the Hanguang Sword Sect. Although most of the disciples of the Hanguang Sword Sect are practicing in the Daxue Mountain Cave in the north of Hanguang City, when they are not practicing
, they will also come to Hanguang City to hang out, so the density of cultivators in the entire Hanguang City is very high. Like Yunlai City, there are many shops dedicated to entertaining cultivators, and the teahouse Yang Lu went to on this trip is
one of them.
This kind of teahouse that specifically provides services to cultivators provides high-quality spiritual tea, which is most suitable for cultivators who are tired from traveling to restore their vitality. Cultivators from other places who come and go are also happy to discuss business in such a private place without talking to the outside world.
Mortals mingle together, so this type of teahouse is also popular with cultivators who have spare money.
Tian Beixi has always attached great importance to the enjoyment of life. Even if he goes to an outlying island to command operations, he has to bring a very cumbersome luxury marching tent. The teahouse that this woman can like must be the most high-end existence in Hanguang City. Just from the outside
It looks very similar to a private club on Earth. Even the maid at the door is a monk in the early stages of Qi refining.
However, this maid in the Qi Refining Stage did not wear the uniform of her sect, but wore a skirt with slits on the side, which made Yang Lu unable to tell which sect this girl came from.
However, it has become increasingly common for disciples from well-known and upright sects to do odd jobs outside, and Yang Lu is not surprised.
When Yang Lu told the maid Tian Beixi's name, the other party took him to an independent courtyard in the backyard of the teahouse.
He casually asked Lin Musen to guard the door, and Yang Lu gently pushed the door open and entered. As expected, he saw the familiar figure of Tian Beixi leaning on a imperial concubine's couch in the side room, as if he had been waiting for his arrival.
Compared to the careless Li Qingning, Tian Beixi is obviously more concerned about her image. She spends at least ten times as much time on dressing up as Miss Li. Not only does her clothes cut just right, but she can also show off her figure advantages, including her waterfall-like black hair.
The hair was also carefully taken care of, making Yang Lu feel like his eyes were brightening when he saw it.
Seeing Yang Lu appear, Tian Beixi straightened his body slightly and greeted: "Consultant Yang, I didn't expect that you would have the opportunity to be our guest in Arctic State. This really flatters me, the host!"
Hearing that Tian Beixi regarded himself as the master, Yang Lu curled his lips and said: "Fairy Tian, you are a serious person from Huoyun State. When did you come to the Hanguang Sword Sect's territory to be the host again?"
Tian Beixi did not answer, but clapped his hands gently.
Then it seemed that the restrictions in this tea room were activated, forming a curtain to cover the two people's room.
After doing all this, Tian Beixi gently waved his hand again, using invisible force to push a cup of spiritual tea in front of Yang Lu, and then replied unhurriedly: "I have learned the Arctic Cold Palace Heart from Palace Master Yin since I was a child.
Fa, I probably spend more time in the Arctic State than in the Fire Cloud State. In addition, our Shenhuo Sect is about to formally form an alliance with the six far north sects. Isn't it too much to call ourselves the host?"
Tian Beixi suddenly revealed this information, obviously wanting to give Yang Lu a blow.
In fact, the Shenhuo Sect put pressure on the Haiya Sect and asked the Haiya Sect to come forward to persuade the Hanguang Sword Sect. It was Tian Beixi who came to Haiya City to personally facilitate this. At that time, Yang Lu thought she was just here to help the Haiya Sect.
platform, it was not until he heard about the "Northeast Ocean Free Trade Agreement" that Yang Lu realized Tian Beixi's true purpose.
This made Yang Lu slightly unhappy:
Fortunately, he still thought that this witch was just trying to return a favor to him!
The Haiya Department had concealed the whole process from the Qingning Chamber of Commerce to facilitate this matter, and it was precisely because of Tian Beixi's own instructions. Therefore, in Tian Beixi's opinion, Yang Lu should not be aware of this big news.
However, Tian Beixi did not expect that this information had actually been revealed by Qu Jing, the elder of the Hanguang Sword Sect who had wanted to befriend Yang Lu. Therefore, Yang Lu's expression did not change at all, and he said calmly: "Promote free trade in the Northeast Ocean.
, it can be regarded as a kind act of immeasurable merit, presumably Master Tian and Fairy Tian have also gained a lot of merit!"
Seeing Yang Lu's calm look, Tian Beixi knew that the matter had been leaked. This made Tian Xianzi, who had held back all her energy to see Yang Lu shocked and lost his composure, felt as if she had punched cotton.
However, the hardest part of Tian Beixi's body is his mouth.
Therefore, she still maintained her posture and said: "This is indeed a kind act of immeasurable merit. Even if I only gained a small amount of this merit, it still helped me cultivate the third golden wheel of merit!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After saying that, Tian Beixi activated his magic power slightly, and three brilliant spiritual energy shadows vaguely emerged.
Seeing Tian Beixi's proud expression, Yang Lu just smiled indifferently. He had cultivated three golden wheels of merit in the Qi refining stage. Even if you look at the entire world of cultivation, they are rare. It's a pity that Yang Lu and Li Qingning's third
The three golden wheels of merit were cultivated earlier than she did!
When Tian Beixi saw Yang Lu's careless expression, he almost lost his temper on the spot.
Resisting the urge to slap the other party to death, Tian Beixi forced himself to pretend to be calm and said: "The information about the Northeast Ocean Free Trade Agreement was probably told to you secretly by Jiang Hua'an and Su Yuanfeng, right? I knew it.
These Haiya merchants will not be obedient, if I had known, I would have made them swear an oath to the law of heaven!"
What Tian Beixi said was just pretentious.
No matter how bad they are, Jiang Hua'an and Su Yuanfeng are still powerful. They verbally agreed to negotiate with the Hanguang Sword Sect without telling the Qingning Chamber of Commerce. They have already done their best to be benevolent. How can they swear an oath to Tian Beixi for such a trivial matter?
However, Tian Beixi's words seemed to mean that as long as she wanted to, the two of them would obediently swear to her at any time.
So Yang Lu immediately defended his allies: "Fairy Tian misunderstood, I didn't learn about this from City Lord Jiang and the others!"
Tian Beixi would definitely not ask Yang Lu where he knew it from, as that would make him appear a little ignorant, so he abruptly changed the subject and said: "Speaking of which, since Ye Chen, that reckless man, died in Haiya City, you Qing Ning
The Haiya Sect, the main backer of the Chamber of Commerce, must rely on the protection of our Shenhuo Sect. From this point of view, we can be considered a family!"
Although Tian Beixi said that we are a family, her condescending expression and tone clearly hinted that the Qingning Chamber of Commerce has become a vassal of the Shenhuo Sect. Why don't you come over and kneel down to lick it?
It was a pity that Yang Lu was already quite familiar with Tian Beixi's strong character, so he didn't accept the other party's tactics at all. He just calmly sipped the spiritual tea handed over by Tian Beixi and said: "The Shenhuo Sect is willing to provide Haiya Chamber of Commerce with
Asylum, of course this is a good thing we like to see, but what does this have to do with the Qingning Chamber of Commerce? We are not a formal member of the Haiya family, and we cannot afford to reach a high-profile family like Tian Xianzi."
Seeing that Yang Lu showed no respect for him, Tian Beixi suddenly raised his eyebrows: "Consultant Yang, if you come to see me with this attitude, aren't you afraid that I will become angry and be detrimental to your Qingning Chamber of Commerce?"
"Fairy Tian, my attitude is always polite, but you are so aggressive that people think I owe you two life-saving graces!" As soon as these words came out, Tian Beixi could hardly control his expression.
However, Yang Lu did not give her a chance to speak, but added at a very fast speed, "Besides, Head Tian of your sect treats Miss Qingning like one of his own family members. Even if Fairy Tian wants to harm her,
Will Master Tian just sit back and ignore it?"
As soon as these words came out, Tian Beixi was completely speechless.
Although she always wanted to find an opportunity to teach Yang Lu a lesson, as the noise caused by Yang Lu became louder and louder, even Tian Daxiao noticed Li Qingyang's great-grandson-in-law. No matter how superb Tian Beixi's methods were,
I have no confidence that I can do things without telling my master, who is the master with great powers.
Jiang Hua'an and Su Yuanfeng would definitely not dare to make the decision without permission, such as putting pressure on the Haiya Clan to teach them a lesson to the Qingning Chamber of Commerce. They would definitely find a way to ask the Shenhuo Sect for instructions to confirm whether this was Tian Daxiao's personal intention.
Everyone knows that Tian Daxiao protects Li Qingning, and before Tian Beixi participated in the battlefield outside the territory, Tian Daxiao specifically told her to enter the battlefield outside the territory to protect Li Qingning. If Tian Daxiao knew that she was behind the scenes to make a small move against the Qingning Chamber of Commerce, she would never be spared.
She will inevitably be imprisoned for several months.
Tian Beixi originally wanted to take the opportunity of this meeting to show off her muscles to Yang Lu, but Yang Lu didn't accept the move at all. This left her with no other way to deal with this annoying guy except gritting her teeth.
Tian Beixi held it in for a long time and finally managed to spit out a few words: "So... what do you want to do in Arctic State?"
When it came to business, Yang Lu no longer teased Tian Beixi, but lowered his attitude and said: "Actually, the main reason I came to Arctic State is to ask Fairy Tian for a favor and introduce Palace Master Yin of Arctic Cold Palace!"
If Yang Lu came up and asked Tian Beixi for help, she might not even bother to do the favor.
However, just now Tian Beixi failed to put pressure on Yang Lu and was squeezed out by the other party. This made her expression obviously a little uneasy. Now when she heard that Yang Lu would ask for help from her, she felt like she had regained her face.
Maybe this is what Yang Lu often calls "expectation management"!
Tian Beixi had been mentally prepared. As long as Yang Lu obeyed her, she would be merciful and help him. However, she heard that Yang Lu's request was to meet the Lord of the Arctic Cold Palace through herself.
After Yin Huaiyuan, even though she was mentally prepared, she couldn't help but hesitate.
Seeing Tian Beixi's expression changing, Yang Lu asked tentatively: "What? Doesn't Fairy Tian also have this channel?"
It was probably more difficult for Tian Beixi to admit that he couldn't do it in front of Yang Lu than for Yang Lu to tell Li Qingning that he couldn't do it on the bed. The corner of her mouth twitched slightly and she said: "Do you know that I haven't seen Palace Master Yin for decades?
More than an outsider!"
"If Palace Master Yin can visit anyone now, why should I bother Fairy Tian? I'm afraid he would have officially paid a visit through the Hanguang Sword Sect's channels! But I heard from Elder Qu Jing of the Hanguang Sword Sect that they don't have the chance now either.
Meet Palace Master Yin."
Tian Beixi did not answer the question directly, but asked instead: "Why do you suddenly want to meet Palace Master Yin?"
Yang Lu quickly came up with the words he had prepared long ago and replied: "We hope to go to Qishan Prison to visit the ancestor Mingzhu of the Wuliang Sword Sect. It is said that Li Xingchang had a close relationship with the ancestor Mingzhu before his death. The two of them once ascended to the third level.
We have worked together with the Immortal for a long time, and it was Li Xingchang’s greatest wish before his death to visit Mingzhu Ancestor in prison.”
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! This pretense of Li Qingyang’s last wish was discussed in advance by Yang Lu and Wang Ziwei.
Although the painting style of the world of cultivation is very fantasy, because the productivity of this world is very developed, and cultivators themselves have the power to move mountains and reclaim seas, feudal superstition is not the mainstream trend of thought in this society. Most high-level worldly cultivators,
Clearly more of an Earth scientist than a theologian.
Therefore, there was no psychological burden on Yang Lu and Wang Ziwei when they made up jokes about the deceased Governor Li Qingyang.
Even if Li Qingyang came alive and learned about this, he would probably just laugh it off. After all, this deviant elder in the world of cultivation dared to do such treacherous things as organizing people to study loopholes in the way of heaven.
If he flaunts his banner and deceives, he probably won't take it seriously at all.
After hearing Yang Lu's explanation, Tian Beixi nodded slightly and said: "Yes, Qishan Prison is jointly managed by the Wuliang Sword Sect and the Arctic Han Palace. It holds the most vicious prisoners in the world of cultivation. Anyone can
If you want to visit Qishan Prison, you must obtain permission from both the Wuliang Sword Sect and the Arctic Cold Palace."
Yang Lu took the opportunity to glance at Tian Beixi, but did not see the suspicious look on the other person's delicate face, so he continued to pull up the tiger skin as a banner and said: "In the Wuliang Sword Sect, this kind of thing only requires the master of the Internal Affairs Hall Wen Hanqing
For permission, you don’t even need to alert Lin Jianxing, the head of the Wuliang Sword Sect, and Elder Wen and Mr. Li have been old friends for many years. It is not difficult for us, Mr. Li’s descendants, to get the permission. However, here in the Arctic Cold Palace, large and small matters
Everything will be decided by Palace Master Yin. Without Palace Master Yin’s magic mark, we might not even be able to enter the gate of Qishan Prison.”
