Zhang Yuelu disappeared and walked in the warehouse area. Neither the guards nor the imprisoned slaves could see her.
The warehouse area here is actually somewhat similar to a prison. It is divided into rooms. Some single rooms only hold one person. In addition to being good-looking, these people are treated quite well. Not only are the food good, but there is no
There are obvious signs of abuse - after all, "Tian Ting" is still hoping to sell it for a good price, so it's hard to make ends meet if it's bruised or dirty.
There is also the "Datongpu". The people incarcerated here are a little worse, and the treatment is obviously lower than that of the "single room", but it is not too bad, at most there is a little skin trauma. It is not as good as "Tianting"
Xibosuzhou Company is more benevolent, but their positioning and routes are different.
Zhang Yuelu's eyes swept over these poor people who had become slaves, with no expression on her face. After all, she was not a saint. In a sense, she was also a cold-hearted person. Her comment was "similar to the great master of the Five Dynasties"
It's never just a compliment, in fact it has mixed meanings.
As the saying goes, kindness does not control soldiers, and righteousness does not control wealth. However, the most important power is military power and financial power. Only with money can we raise soldiers, and only with soldiers can we establish effective rule.
It is difficult for a good person to be a good leader, and the Sixth Generation Master is a lesson learned from the past.
From the beginning to the end, Zhang Yuelu only proposed to change Taoism, not the world. She was a top-down reformist, not a bottom-up insurrectionist. Her origin made her successful, but also limited her.
There is no need to regard her as a saint who saves the world. ??
The idea is good, but how to implement it is another matter.
The transformation of the world is not the work of one person, nor can it be accomplished by one person. It cannot be achieved unless the general trend is achieved. Once the general trend is achieved, heroes can take advantage of the trend and take advantage of it. Before the big trend arrives, heroes can only hang up their hands and shout in vain.
No way.
Zhang Yuelu did not rescue these poor people immediately, but glanced at them. Even if she could save these slaves, there would be a steady stream of slaves in the future. The root of the problem must be cut off, and the "Heavenly Court" must be moved.
"How can it be a simple matter? Not to mention the support of Taiping Dao behind it. Even the Patriarch Jin Gong is also a high mountain.
Soon, Zhang Yuelu looked at the entire warehouse area and made a major discovery. Most of the slaves had some kind of mark on their bodies, just like seals. They were different, which seemed to mean that they came from different places. As for the "Tianting" why
The failure to erase these marks is probably related to the behavior of "Heavenly Court". In essence, they are still a group of delusional and rough people with limited sophistication.
Of course these marks are not straight
Bai's words are almost like giving people instructions, but some kind of symbols. Among them is the symbol of Nanyang United Trading Company. Because the Lingnan branch of Nanyang United Trading Company was almost taken over by Zhang Yuelu, Zhang Yuelu has mastered many related matters.
The secret of Nanyang United Trading Company, it is not difficult to recognize this symbol.
Zhang Yuelu used these symbols to distinguish the slaves from the Nanyang United Trading Company, and then she selected a very beautiful Western woman with blue eyes, blond hair, and very pale skin. She was also frail and seemed to have a good background - which often meant that the price was not high.
Philippines.
Then Zhang Yuelu used a little trick to make the woman temporarily sick, with her face sallow and her breath weak, but it was not life-threatening.
If a very valuable slave suddenly becomes ill, it is difficult to continue the auction. No one will spend a lot of money to buy a dying person. The auction house will not give up the slave easily because of the high cost. Generally, there are two options: one
The first is to sell at a reduced price, and the second is to return the goods. The former may cause the auction house to lose money, so the latter is more likely.
At the same time, Zhang Yuelu also used the "Six Void Tribulations" to leave his own aura in this woman's body. You must know that even after the immeasurable heavenly beings of the same realm encountered the "Six Void Tribulations", it would be difficult for them not to have an attack.
Zhang Yuelu's approach to detecting or eliminating it can be said to be almost foolproof.
The next thing was very simple. Zhang Yuelu waited for the woman to be returned and sent back to the warehouse where slaves were kept in the Nanyang United Trading Company. Then she followed the breath left in the woman's body to find the warehouse.
This method is not very safe, but it is the best method that Zhang Yuelu can think of in a short time. If this method does not work, then Zhang Yuelu can only wait for news from Ziguang Society, which will take a long time.
As for whether Nanyang United Trading Company will be alarmed, Zhang Yuelu thinks not. Although the Wang family will definitely give Nanyang United Trading Company some advice after Chen Shuhua's incident, such as restraining their actions and being cautious, the power of inertia is always huge.
Once a habit is formed, it is always difficult to break it.
Moreover, the people below may not be able to realize how bad the situation is. It is impossible for the Wang family to tell the people below the real situation, which will seriously weaken the confidence of the entire company and even cause the tree to fall and the monkeys to scatter in advance. Therefore, the Wang family must have
reservations, but also to maintain a posture of having everything under control, which leads to the possibility that the people below will not
Take it seriously.
A single return of goods would not make Nanyang United Trading Company sufficiently alert.
After Zhang Yuelu made sure that nothing was missing, he did not return to the auction house, but quietly left the place along another road.
On the other side, after Qi Xuansu executed Chen Shuzhen, the leader of Dayu Kingdom, he decided to continue his unfinished inspection tour.
Regarding this point, no one, including Wang Jiaohe, can object, and it cannot be said that it is not necessary. ??
So Qi Xuansu boarded the flying boat and headed to the Lion City.
This time the battle was going to be much bigger, and there was a "Yinglong" escort. In fact, it can't be called an escort, it was mainly just a way. The Jiayin Lingguan was going back to Xuanwei Division in Jiugang, and he happened to be traveling on the same road as Qi Xuansu.
.However, after the Jiayin Lingguan has arranged the affairs of the Xuanwei Division in Jiugang, he will serve as a temporary guard for Qi Xuansu for a period of time.
Qi Xuansu's entourage this time was quite large. In addition to the necessary secretary Chen Jianchou, there were also Miss Xiao Yin, Han Yongfeng, Lu Yuting, Shangguan Ya who was temporarily taking orders from him, and the Lingguan Guards, which numbered about 500 people.
.
It's not that Qi Xuansu deliberately fought like this to show off the prestige of the new chief deputy palace master, but because Qi Xuansu is relatively weak now, not to mention the strength of the creation gods, even the Xiaoyao gods are very difficult, and they have to strengthen their guards to avoid sewers.
Capsized.
Compared with the safety of your own life, no battle is too big, no matter how big it is.
There were no twists and turns in this inspection. When the flying boat landed outside the Lion City again, the entire Lion City was in a hurry again. Fortunately, not long had passed since the last time, and many arrangements had not been abandoned and could be taken out.
Then use it.
However, this also made many people curse in their hearts, "It's endless, right? I've just been patrolling again and again, and I've been doing nothing else all day long, just serving you."
It's just that no matter how much dissatisfaction you have, you can only keep it in your heart, no one dares to put it into words.
Who made me get promoted? Previously, I was a third-grade Taoist Priest Youyi, the second deputy palace master. Now I am a second-grade Taiyi Taoist priest, the chief deputy palace master. This is undoubtedly a big step up. Many people will never be able to achieve this in their lifetime.
Qi Xuansu just crossed the threshold. But no one could say anything. These were all real achievements. The reason why it felt strange was that the time was too short, and this Qi Xuansu was too young. If
If it were a seven-generation disciple who had gone through many vicissitudes of life, it would not be as out of the ordinary, and would even feel very reasonable.
However, everything always has pros and cons. Qi Xuansu's age has become a problem for many people.
The weapon used to attack him was the main reason for criticizing him, but it was precisely because of his age that Qi Xuansu gained some very implicit respect and status.
The reason is simple. Of course, the chief deputy palace master is a big shot, but he is not so big that he cannot be mentioned. But if he is a chief deputy palace master who is less than thirty years old, it will be very scary. What does this mean?
This means that he still has at least seventy years left. Even if there is a hurdle every ten years, ten years as headmaster, and ten years as headmaster, it means that he is qualified to compete for the great headmaster when he is less than fifty years old -
—No one would doubt that an infinite deity under the age of thirty would miss immortality.
Competing for the qualifications of the Grand Master, also known as the Taoist Prince, is also the position of Master Donghua, Master Qingwei, and Master Cihang. The weight is completely different. If you can ascend to the position of Grand Master, it will be even less important.
It’s the same, even though many people nowadays look down upon the Sixth Generation Grandmaster, even if it is the Sixth Generation Grandmaster, it was only the three divisions that joined forces to suppress it. Who in the ordinary people would dare to compare themselves to the three divisions?
Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi. Don’t bully young people into poverty.
This is a very simple question.
Maybe some people are not afraid of offending a chief deputy palace master, but are afraid of offending a future Taoist prince.
Unless Qi Xuansu was killed now, Qi Xuansu's rise would be almost unstoppable. People always have to look far away and make early plans for the future, so Qi Xuansu received far more respect than ordinary chief deputy palace masters.
Because Chief Qi was ill, the port was under martial law by men in black.
Qin Hengjun, the second-in-command of the Nanting Protectorate, personally came out to greet him, accompanied by his adjutants, Hu Fuli and Zhou Yonghe from the Taiping Bank, as well as many local Taoist priests.
Spirit officers and men in black formed the inner and outer perimeters, and everyone was staring at Feizhou.
The gangway came down, and Qi Xuansu was the first to step off the flying boat.
In an instant everyone gathered around.
This reminded Qi Xuansu of the scene when they welcomed Jiang Hedao and Jiang Dazhen at the Imperial Capital Penglai Pond. He did not expect that he could also enjoy such treatment.
Qi Xuansu first greeted Qin Hengjun, then looked at Hu Fuli and said, "Please help me, Hu Fuli."
Hu Fuli said, "It should be."
If Hu Fuli was a little reluctant last time, then after the incident at Shenglong Mansion, he had completely seen the situation clearly and was determined to stand by Qi Xuansu's side.
