"Wentang, are you telling the truth?" Bai Zhenkong asked with a trembling voice, Zuo Wentang nodded.
Ye Yuzhou naturally told Zuo Wentang about the conflict with the Mangzhou Snake Kingdom. He sighed, turned to Yang Jie and said, "You can wait outside for now. I have important matters to discuss with City Lord Bai."
Although Yang Jie was unwilling, he did not dare to disobey Ye Yuzhou's order, so he could only turn around and go out.
Ye Yuzhou thought for a while and stepped forward and said: "City Lord Bai, there is no need to worry. National war is no small matter. The Snake Kingdom will not make the decision to go to war easily. What's more, if nothing unexpected happens, the Snake Kingdom will not dare to use force."
Bai Zhenkong already knew roughly what happened.
"Mr. Yuzhou, it's not that this city lord doesn't believe you, it's just that I don't understand why you insist on helping that mysterious man, even at the risk of setting yourself on fire. Knowing that the son of the national master of the Snake Kingdom was killed, you should capture the murderer and hand him over to the Snake Kingdom in exchange for their anger.
Calm down, what's more, I also heard that the mysterious man was harboring monsters, which is really inappropriate." Bai Zhenkong's tone was already very rude, and if it weren't for Ye Yuzhou's special status, he might even scold him.
If this incident really triggers a national war between the two countries, then he, as the city lord, will come to an end.
Ye Yuzhou smiled at this moment: "City Lord Bai, if I really do that, it will really cause a disaster. It's hard for Ye to tell you the specific reasons. In short, there is no need to worry about the Snake Kingdom. If it really triggers a national war,
Ye is willing to shoulder the responsibility and will never drag City Lord Bai down."
Ye Yuzhou and Bai Zhenkong broke up on bad terms because of this incident.
After leaving the city lord's mansion, Ye Yuzhou immediately went to a remote place, dressed up in disguise, wore a hat to cover his face, and then went to a market in the city.
There is a place here that specializes in selling all kinds of birds and falcons. In the corner next to this stall, there is a blind old man sitting. Next to the old man is a wooden shelf with five falcons standing on it.
The old man comes back almost every day, from morning till night, and most people have no idea what he does.
But those who are evil will know that this is a 'station' that delivers news. You can buy and kill people, gather information, find people, find things, sell stolen goods, basically shady things, you can send and receive news from here.
.
Of course, the fees are also very high.
Ye Yuzhou has experienced in various places, so he knows these rules of the "jianghu".
The rule for people here is not to care about their status, just do things.
Ye Yuzhou knew the rules, so when he arrived at the place, he first dropped a gold coin. The gold coin was specially minted with a coiled dragon pattern on it. It was not the currency of various countries, but the exclusive 'dragon coin' of the evil way.
"Bring me a newspaper!"
Ye Yuzhou said something.
If Lin Jin were here, he would definitely be stunned by the term "newspaper".
The blind old man did not say anything, but took out a roll of grass from under his buttocks and handed it to Ye Yuzhou. Ye Yuzhou did not look at it on the spot, but took out two more golden dragon coins.
"I want to publish the news in the newspaper!" Ye Yuzhou said in a low voice.
The blind old man grinned, showing his yellow teeth, and then stretched out five fingers.
Ye Yuzhou was stunned, but he still took out three dragon coins and made up five. The blind old man smiled again and reached out, and Ye Yuzhou handed over what he had written long ago.
After that, Ye Yuzhou turned around and left, while the blind old man also stood up against the wall and left for a while. After coming back, he sat down again and began to take a nap again.
However, the falcon on the wooden shelf in front of him was missing one.
After Ye Yuzhou returned to the Monk Association, he thought to himself that the message had been sent out, but he didn't know if the black crow and the ghost baby could see it.
At this time, he took out the straw roll given by the blind old man and opened it. There was a piece of paper wrapped inside.
There are more than a dozen messages written on the paper.
There is a title, content, time and publisher.
This is a 'newspaper'.
What is written on it is the latest news in the evil world, many of which are the latest big events, and there are also things like looking for people, such as wanting to pay for murder, etc. Of course, few people write the content directly, most of them use code words.
When people who are new to this place see this, many of them cannot understand it, and may even find it baffling.
Ye Yuzhou looked around and found nothing of value. Many of the news in the newspaper happened far away from the Jade Dragon Kingdom, so after reading it, he threw it into the fire.
Speaking of which, Ye Yuzhou was quite happy. The message he sent this time was for the curator. To a certain extent, he was the spokesperson of the curator.
As for the identity of the curator, Ye Yuzhou had certainly guessed it.
He also knows some masters in the world, but no one can compare with the curator.
In Ye Yuzhou's opinion, the masters he knew were not as good as the curator.
…
Shijia Pharmacy.
Recently, due to the impact of Chen's Pharmacy, the Shi Family Pharmacy can be said to be deserted, with only a few people coming here to buy medicine and elixirs.
In order to crush the Shi family to death, the Chen family's medicinal materials have been lowered in price. The money in the hands of ordinary people is hard-earned. If it can be cheaper, of course they are willing to choose the cheaper one. What's more, the Chen family can also trust the quality. In Hongye City
, the Chen family’s reputation is no weaker than that of the established Shi family.
Shi Wenjun naturally knows Chen Wenlin's methods. As the head of the Shi family, she is not only remarkable in alchemy skills, but also has very powerful business methods.
If it hadn't been for Shi Wenjun's support in these years, the situation of the Shi family might have been even worse. Except for her, other members of the Shi family could surpass Shi Wenjun in alchemy skills, but in terms of business management, no one could.
Stronger than her.
Regarding the Chen family's price reduction, Shi Wenjun remained calm this time. Even if she could not sell any medicinal materials for a day, she did not follow suit.
Because Shi Wenjun knew that the Chen family’s real trump card was the elixir business.
The elixir business is the foundation of the Shi family.
Originally, the Chen family had obtained the prescription. If it was a fair competition and the price was the same, that would be fine. However, the Chen family's goal was to defeat the Shi family, so this battle was a matter of life and death, and it was unavoidable.
Speaking of which, Shi Wenjun admires Chen Wenlin. This man started from scratch. It is really amazing that he can reach this level from nothing. If under normal circumstances, Wu Chenwei stole the pill formula and gave it to the Chen family, this time the Shi family would have almost been unable to stand up.
Possibly, unless the Shi family has other prescriptions that are at the bottom of the box.
Fortunately, the Shi family received support from Lin Jin at the most critical moment and received the prescription from Lin Jin.
Not to mention anything else, just a Nine Water Floating Cloud Pill is enough to solve the Shi family's urgent needs.
What's more, the pill prescription Lin Jin gave this time was not just the Nine Water Floating Cloud Pill.
In the past few days, the alchemy masters of the Shi family have been secretive, staying at home and concentrating on refining alchemy, and today is the day for the Shi family to fight back.
Early in the morning, the Shi family hung a sign outside the largest medicine store in Hongye City and invited the city's dignitaries to attend the press conference of the Shi family's new elixir.
It can be said that the battle was very big.
In addition to inviting official officials and some wealthy businessmen, even the Chen family was also invited by the Shi family. Although Shi Wenjun was a woman, she was very open-minded in her work, and she also had the intention of confronting the Chen family head-on.
Of course, the Shi family is keeping a tight lid on the new elixir that is to be released. Except for a few core members of the Shi family, no one else in the Shi family knows about it. It is also wise to learn from every experience. If the Shi family is exposed again, what will happen to the Shi family?
