"Osawada has been guarding the Seven Star Tower for two hundred years. The harvest is gradually not as good as before, and there are many examples of returning empty-handed. But this time, it is said that the stars are in full bloom and it is a glorious year. Among them, a life-enhancing treasure has been born. News
Half truth and half falsehood, coming from inside the Tian family, it is 50% reliable..." Chongxuan Sheng leaned on a special large chair and said seriously: "That's the way it is."
With the vast territory of the Qi State, its cultivation resources are abundant, and its various secret realms are also quite impressive.
For example, the Tianfu Secret Realm is completely under the control of Qi Ting. Tianfu City was even built based on this place.
The Seven Star Tower is also one of the famous secret places in Qi State. However, this secret place belongs to the Osawada clan. It can be said that the Osawada clan relied on this secret place to make its fortune.
After years of struggle and compromise, the current Qixing Tower still belongs to the Tian family, but most of the quotas need to be opened to allow other people from Qi to participate.
Historically, there will be a concentrated explosion of treasures in the Seven Star Tower every few years or decades, which is called the "Year of Glory". But there is no rule.
The recent openings have yielded mediocre results, and the Qixing Building is not as attractive as before.
This "Year of Glory" is said to have been divined by a mysterious divination master. The Tian family tried every means to cover it up, but the news finally came out.
The so-called longevity-enhancing treasures are actually not very eye-catching in the harvest of the so-called "Year of Glory", because although there are various harvests in the Seven Star Tower, I have never heard of any outstanding longevity-enhancing treasures.
What really attracts attention is the emergence of a treasure related to the secret of the outer building. But no one can tell what it is specifically and whether it really exists. In short, it is rumored to be mysterious, and the news is flying all over the sky.
There is no doubt that for Jiang Wang now, longevity-enhancing treasures are very attractive. Especially longevity-enhancing treasures other than longevity fruits and longevity pills. He very much needs longevity-enhancing treasures to fill up his life span, make up for regrets, and make great strides forward.
OK.
Kureiyuan and his party made him aware of his regrets. For the sake of long-term development, he has been paying attention to news in this area recently. Chongxuan Sheng is also helping him collect it, but this kind of thing is hard to come by.
"It's only 50% reliable..." Jiang Wang thought for a while: "There's no need to make a trip."
Chong Xuansheng glared at him: "Who can tell what can appear in the Seven Star Tower? If it is 50% reliable, it is already very safe."
"Something I can't even explain..."
"I know what you are thinking." Zhong Xuansheng interrupted him: "Do you think that I can't have fun without you? Are you too swollen, Mr. Jiang? With your weight, no matter how much you weigh,
No matter how much it expands, it can't reach me!"
Jiang Wang felt moved and funny at the same time: "Yes, yes, of course you can play around. You are so round, you can spin more than ten times in one go!"
Zhong Xuansheng choked and couldn't help but look at Fourteen: "Look, what does he look like now? Where did that simple young man who was not good at words go? Now he spends his money every day in the garden and gossips."
"Hmph." He said angrily: "Xu Gao'e is really a black sheep and has caused a lot of trouble!"
Just when Jiang Wanggang wanted to retaliate, "I didn't learn this from you," Zhong Xuansheng had already taken the first step to block Xu Xiangqian's mouth. His bickering skills were really good.
I don’t know if Xu Xiang would sneeze while doing this.
"Blame him, blame him." Jiang Wang gave up on having the upper hand with his words and became serious: "Are you really okay?"
Zhong Xuansheng smiled confidently: "Go to Caishikou now and chat with any aunt. She can remind you that the Jubao Chamber of Commerce will be gone soon. Don't buy anything from their chamber of commerce to prevent these people from going crazy before they die. Tell me, do I have any problems?"
Jiang Wang looked at Fourteen again. Fourteen's expression was always hidden under the heavy armor, but he nodded slightly.
The Jubao Chamber of Commerce has become "alive" again during this period, with intense activities in all aspects. However, those who have real superficial relationships have "wisely" kept silent. The remaining ones who were moved by heavy profits were also moved by Zhongxuan Sheng He joined forces with the Four Seas Business Alliance to suppress it.
Wang Yiwu has expressed his confidence in the Jubao Chamber of Commerce many times, but he is not good at management and has not been able to provide any practical resources to support the Jubao Chamber of Commerce. Just a statement will not help at all. It would be better if the military god Jiang Mengxiong expresses this attitude. Almost and this is simply impossible.
If Jiang Mengxiong was willing to come forward to help Wang Yiwu express this attitude, Zhongxuanzun might have already taken control of the Zhongxuan family, and it would not be Zhongxuansheng's turn to come forward, and the situation in front of him would not happen at all...
All in all, in the competition between Chongxuanzun and Chongxuansheng, Wang Yiwu could not use any of the resources of the Grand Marshal's Mansion except for his own identity as a disciple of the God of War.
Leave these words aside.
When the rumors evolved into a "consensus", signs of the collapse of the Jubao Chamber of Commerce appeared.
…
When a stone is thrown into the lake, the sound will pass quickly, but the ripples caused by it will tremble for a long time and far away...
The Daqi Palace is gorgeous and majestic, covering an extremely large area.
Among them, Shouning Palace is the residence of the Queen of Daqi.
He Fu received the summons and did not dare to delay at all, and hurriedly entered the palace. He is the biological brother of the current Queen He and the only relative of the Queen outside. The relationship between the siblings was very close in the past.
Upon entering the palace, He Fu first bowed respectfully and paid homage. The whole process was so meticulous that even if the ceremony officer was standing by, it would be difficult to find fault.
The queen also sat on the phoenix chair and was silent.
One worships and one sits, one minister and one master.
One brother and one sister.
The elder sister is still in her glory, but the younger brother has become more prosperous.
After a set of grand ceremonies, the queen raised her hand and commanded: "Give me a seat."
Two palace maids carried out a seat and placed it on the side below.
He Fu saluted and thanked him, and sat down.
The queen waved her hand again, and the maids bowed out and left without making a sound during the whole process.
Only a personal female official was left, standing by the side to serve.
"I wonder why the queen has summoned her?" He Fu asked.
At this time, the queen's voice gained a hint of warmth: "I haven't seen my brother for a long time. How is your family? Are you still filial to me?"
"There is no future, all I can do is be filial." He Fu's voice was a little muffled.
There was some resentment in these words.
With the current status of the He family, it is definitely not difficult for He to really make a career. He doesn't need any talent at all. He doesn't even need to do anything from the Queen.
As long as she doesn't stop her and just acquiesces, that's fine.
But the queen stopped her.
The attitude is very firm.
As a result, He Fu, a great uncle of the country, now has no job. In his early years, he had some ambitions and thought about a big future. After being dissuaded by the queen, his thoughts became dull. After all, he has no shortage of wealth, food and clothing, and he can survive.
Just got over it.
But his son He Zhen, who is thirty-six this year, has accomplished nothing.
He could get used to this and endure it. But after enduring it for so long, his son still wanted to do this.
This incident made him very resentful. In the past, he often went to the palace to see the queen every once in a while. He never stopped giving gifts during the New Year, and he was always concerned about his sister's preferences.
From then on, she came to the palace less and less, and even couldn't come unless summoned.
Compared with He Fu, who was already declining, Queen He's face seemed to be in her thirties, with a well-groomed look and a graceful air.
Hearing what Uncle Guo said, he just smiled warmly and said: "As children, filial piety is the first priority."
This makes sense after all, and you can only understand it after becoming a parent.
In addition, the elder sister, with the dignity of a queen, advises her with gentle words. It is not good for a younger brother to remain cold all the time.
He Fu softened his expression and said: "What my sister is saying is that the prince is filial and sincere, and this is known to the world. If Zhen'er can be half as good as his cousin, I will be satisfied."
"Zhen'er is also a good boy..." The queen paused and said, "As an aunt, I have wronged him."
He Fu said with emotion: "If my sister can say this, he will not feel wronged."
The Queen nodded and said as if unintentionally: "Do you have a man named Cao Xing under your command?"
He Fu was shocked: "Yes...but what did he do?"
What did Cao Xing, who deserved to be killed, commit? It went straight to Tianting, and even the queen knew about it!
My heart suddenly turned upside down and I couldn't hide my panic.
"Not at all." The queen shook her head slightly, looking at her brother's face that already showed his age: "He seems to be working in the Jubao Chamber of Commerce?"
"……yes."
Cao Xing is the honorary elder of the Jubao Chamber of Commerce. Regardless of his cultivation, talent, or skills, there is nothing praiseworthy about him.
But the reason why he can become the honorary elder of the Jubao Chamber of Commerce is because he represents He Fu and the uncle of Da Qi.
"Let him retreat," said the queen.
Although he had a premonition in his heart, when he actually heard this, He Fu still subconsciously grasped the armrest to prevent himself from losing his composure.
In order to avoid suspicion, there were no officials or positions in the He family.
As a relative of the royal family, it is natural to have no worries about food and clothing. But if you mix in Linzi aristocratic circles, how can it be enough to have no worries about food and clothing?
What can you do without spending money? Where can you save money?
The white flowers of silver flow like water.
It is no exaggeration to say that Cao Xing is responsible for at least more than half of the expenses of the He family.
"Is that rumor true? His Majesty is really interested in collecting treasures..."
The Queen raised her hand to stop him: "How can you and I figure out His Majesty's thoughts?"
He Fu was anxious: "But!"
"No buts." The queen's voice was still gentle, but it had an unquestionable dignity.
She is He Fu's sister, but she is also the empress of Daqi.
Seeing the disappointment on He Fu's face, Queen He softened her voice a little: "Wuhua is your nephew, you must think more about him. You can't take any risks."
"You...can't you...can't you help me with a word?"
The queen looked at him quietly and did not answer.
Silence is the most decisive answer.
"But, Queen." He Fu said with an ugly face: "This is a road that ordinary people have finally found. What should I do if I go up and down in the harem and eat horse chews? The entire Qi Kingdom will be without luxury in the future. He
Are my cousin and uncle going to have to live on a tight budget?"
"If people continue to eat, horses will no longer need to chew. If you are in a tight situation, then let it be more difficult."
