After recognizing that the person in front of him was Jiang Ergou, Zheng Longhui immediately invited the four of them into the six-door town government office. In addition, he quickly ordered people to prepare wine and food. If the government office
If it’s not available, go to Luochuan City to buy it.
Now that so many years have passed, Zheng Longhui's martial arts realm has improved slightly, but it is still stuck at the third level. It is no wonder that he has not moved in the position of commander of Luochuan City, even though he now has the title of Qianhu.
That's of no practical use, and he still has so much power.
This does not mean that Zheng Longhui has less power. He is sitting in Luochuan City, the prefecture city of Lingzhou, and everyone in Lingzhou, from the common people to the officials, is not afraid of him.
If it were not for this reason, Lin Yuanhuan's family, as the top second-rate martial arts family in Lingzhou, would not be so afraid when mentioning these six gates.
But this person is always dissatisfied, especially after staying in one position for a long time, he will inevitably have other thoughts. Zheng Longhui has never forgotten that this old friend can talk to the prince, but this Jiang
Ergou will be able to help him move around when he goes to the capital later, and he will be transferred to the capital next year after taking care of him.
"Sit, sit, sit!"
After walking in from outside the Yamen, Zheng Longhui quickly asked a few people to sit down. His enthusiastic appearance made Lin Yuanhuan and He Huaichun, two guys who had never seen the world, wonder if they had gone to the wrong place.
"Brother Zheng, you are living a good life now. There are so many people down there running errands for you. All you need to do is sleep peacefully in this yamen and eat dates."
Seeing the sweet dates still on the table, Jiang Ergou deliberately made fun of this old friend he hadn't seen for many years. When he came out of Baquan Villa and was intercepted by Ange, he was the one who accompanied Jiang Ergou, Su Ruyu and the others.
Returned to the capital.
In response, Zheng Longhui laughed.
"What am I doing? Although it is much more comfortable than when I had to do everything myself, it is not as comfortable as when you wandered around the world and played in the world. If you want to be an official, you are at least a general now."
."
Jiang Ergou shook his head.
"Forget it, forget it, Brother Zheng, don't make fun of me. I still know what I am worth. I can practice swordsmanship and seduce a few Jianghu heroines, but I am really not good at being a general."
Zheng Longhui glanced at Lin Xuanqing and the two girls behind him and pretended to laugh deeply.
"I understand, I understand, but your life is much more comfortable than mine."
After sighing, Zheng Longhui continued.
"But having said that, brother, I really didn't expect you to come to Luochuan City suddenly. I said, you kid, don't come to me for anything!"
Jiang Ergou laughed after eating a sweet date.
"To be honest, Brother Zheng, I really need your help with something, but my main concern is to come see you."
Zheng Longhui replied with a smile.
"I know you don't go to the Three Treasures Palace for anything. Let's talk about it and see if I can help you. But even if I can't help you, can't those two people in the capital still help you?"
"Brother Zheng, the first thing is that you have a Baoshan County in Lingzhou. I wonder if you have heard of it."
Zheng Longhui frowned.
"Baoshan County? I haven't heard of it, but I usually don't ask about the affairs of those small counties. What! Did Ergou encounter something when he passed by here?"
"I can't say anything specific, but Brother Zheng only needs to send someone to investigate to find out the cause and effect."
Zheng Longhui nodded after concentrating. Although the past two years have been quite peaceful and the six sects have not paid much attention to the officialdom, now that these two dogs have brought it up, he still needs to take a look.
"Sure, I'll send someone to Baoshan County tomorrow to check on the situation. Is there anything else wrong with Brother Ergou?"
Jiang Ergou asked next.
"Brother Zheng, I haven't appeared in Dachu Jianghu for several years, so I want to ask you for some information. I don't know where Duandao Yang Dongqing has been in the past few years."
Hearing Jiang Ergou ask this question, He Huaichun's face was very excited. It seemed that Jiang Ergou had not forgotten to find something for him.
As for the master, Zheng Longhui looked embarrassed when faced with Jiang Ergou's question.
"Brother Ergou, you said that if it's just an ordinary thing, maybe I really know about it, but it's about news about top first-class masters. That's not something I can inquire about. If you go to the Liumen Headquarters in Beijing, you might be able to find out about him.
."
Hearing Zheng Longhui's answer, He Huaichun couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. He asked around all the way, but in the past few years, Duandao Yang Dongqing had disappeared in the Dachu Jianghu just like Jiang Ergou.
However, just when Jiang Ergou patted his shoulder to comfort him, Zheng Longhui's words ignited their hopes again.
"However, if you want to know about him, you can go to Baixiao Pavilion to inquire. There, as long as you have money, you can inquire about the whereabouts of anyone. Even the always mysterious Ange and Demon Sect have escaped.
However, their hands are just too involved, and Baixiao Pavilion generally will not easily sell information about these large sects. Also..."
"Etc., etc!"
Before Zheng Longhui could finish speaking, Jiang Ergou interrupted him.
"Brother Zheng, what kind of force is Baixiao Pavilion? Why have I never heard of it before?"
When Zheng Longhui saw Jiang Ergou's ignorant look, he thought that Jiang Ergou had not appeared in the world in the past two years, so it was not surprising that he didn't know about Baixiao Pavilion.
"This Baixiao Pavilion is a force that suddenly appeared in the past two years. Its rise is as fast as that of the Southern Tang Tianwu Pavilion a few years ago. You can tell at a glance that there must be someone behind Baixiao Pavilion.
!This Baixiao Pavilion is engaged in the business of buying and selling information. It is said that one hundred and eight Baixiao Pavilions will be built in Dachu to build a huge information network. If you calculate carefully, eight of them should have been built by now.
There must be more than ten buildings!”
Hearing Zheng Longhui's words, Jiang Ergou was immediately shocked beyond measure. Creating such a force was even more difficult than practicing swordsmanship and becoming a peerless swordsman!
"Who on earth can have such strength! If you want to know everything in the world, this is not something that can only be achieved by a high level of martial arts."
Lin Xuanqing was somewhat disapproving of this. Maybe others didn't know the details of Baixiao Pavilion. Xingyue Sect, as one of the top forces in the world, naturally knew it.
"Although this Baixiao Pavilion is powerful, it is not as outrageous as you said. You must know that Baixiao Pavilion is not the only one who can collect the world's news. The Hehuan Sect all over the world in Huimenglou can still do this easily.
It's just that the timeliness is not as fast as that of Baixiao Pavilion. As for the details of Baixiao Pavilion, who else can be there besides the warlocks of the Tiantian Sect who can do calculations? It is precisely because they have a way of quickly transmitting information.
This is the only way to make Baixiao Pavilion so prosperous."
Compared with Zheng Longhui's explanation, Lin Xuanqing's answer was more comprehensive. It not only revealed the real advantages of Baixiao Pavilion, but also revealed the forces behind it.
And listening to Lin Xuanqing's words, it seems that the Tiannuo Faction, which has always been calm and does not participate in the disputes in the world, is about to start to stir up trouble?
"So where is Baixiao Pavilion usually located?"
"It has been less than three years since Baixiao Pavilion was established, so the expected 108 Baixiao Pavilions have not been completed yet, but Luochuan City, as the capital of Lingzhou, naturally has one."
At the beginning, Zheng Longhui didn't pay much attention to the people who came with Jiang Ergou. He just regarded them as the beauties Jiang Ergou met in the world.
It wasn't until I saw Lin Xuanqing's extraordinary conversation that I recognized her true identity. After all, the Xingyue Sect can be said to be the local sect in Lingzhou. Zheng Longhui, as the commander of Luochuan City in Lingzhou, naturally met Lin Xuanqing. As for Lin
Yuan Huan, no matter how much he thought about it, he didn't know where he had seen it. After all, he was just from a second-rate martial arts family, so there was no need for him to remember it hard.
"Miss Lin is right. There is indeed a Baixiao Tower in Luochuan City, and I happen to be friends with the man in charge of it, Baixiaosheng. If you want to go, I can take you there."
Hearing what Zheng Longhui said, Jiang Ergou and others, especially He Huaichun, didn't want to stay here for a second. Yang Dongqing was ranked fourth on the list of twelve earthly branches a few years ago, and I don't know how many years he has been here.
Have you improved your ranking in the past year?
After coming out of the six-door town government office, we just started
The two detectives who stopped Jiang Ergou and others from letting them in widened their eyes. They didn't expect that their adults would happily welcome those people in, but they would still accompany them now.
Go shopping with them.
Luochuan City is very large. It can be said that there is no more majestic city than it in Dachu except the capital city. The cities in other states are either slightly inferior to it or only comparable to it.
However, judging from the appearance of the Tiannuo Sect, Baixiao Pavilion was naturally chosen to be in the best location in Luochuan City. The merchants traveling here were as numerous as the crucian carp crossing the river.
Looking at the five-story building, Jiang Ergou didn't believe that it could contain news from all over the world, but the guests who kept coming in and out at this moment told Jiang Ergou that Baixiao Pavilion had already established a good reputation.
reputation.
After they entered, a waiter ran over to greet them.
"I don't know what news some of you came here to inquire about."
"Are you the talker here?"
Hearing Jiang Ergou's question, the boy immediately knew that it was his first time to Baixiao Pavilion, but he did not feel disgusted at all, but answered patiently and thoughtfully.
"Young man, you don't know something. Our Baixiao Pavilion has been very popular every day since we opened our doors for business. Since there are too many people coming to inquire about the news every day, we have divided the information that our Baixiao Pavilion has into three parts.
Sixty-ninth wait, young hero, tell me what information you want to inquire about, so that I can judge which floor the young hero should go to to get the answer you want."
Jiang Ergou nodded.
"Your method is good. It can save me a lot of time. But which floor should I go to if I want to get information about a first-level master?"
The boy didn't look like he was joking, so he put away his smile and spoke seriously in a lowered voice.
"If you really want to know about the first-level master, you can go to the fifth floor and try. But it involves too much, and I can't guarantee that you can get the information you want."
Perhaps it was Jiang Ergou's first time here, so Zheng Longhui kept silent because he wanted to let him see it first. He waited until he understood almost everything before Zheng Longhui spoke.
"Okay, okay, I know your shopkeeper here, I'll just take him to the fifth floor."
"yes."
The boy naturally recognized the commander, so he bowed respectfully and left.
When we reached the fifth floor, the originally bustling Baixiao Pavilion suddenly became quiet because there were so few people coming to the fifth floor. It wasn't that they didn't want to know the news on the fifth floor, but because
The price is really too expensive.
According to Zheng Longhui's instructions, several people came to wait outside the door of a small wing. There was a guest sign on the door and they did not disturb them. It was said that if anyone dared to break into the wing at this time, he would be arrested.
Baixiao Pavilion has been put on the blacklist, and you will never be able to buy information here again for the rest of your life.
The person inside didn't keep them waiting for too long, and came out quickly. Seeing his happy face, it was natural that he got the news he wanted.
Standing at the door, Zheng Longhui hesitated but did not go in, saying he was waiting for them outside the door.
Entering the wing, the first thing Jiang Ergou and others saw was a young Taoist priest, and then behind him was a neat row of bookshelves filled with books.
"I wonder what some of you want to ask."
"The whereabouts of Broken Blade Yang Dongqing!"
The little Taoist priest frowned at first, then stood up and came to the row of bookshelves. After searching for a while, he said with some surprise.
"I found it, but it's a bit expensive, five hundred taels of silver!"
He Huaichun almost shouted for robbery. At this price, even the bandits who blocked the road and robbed people did not earn as much as them. As for why he shouted out, he would naturally pay for finding his master.
Anyway, Jiang Ergou won’t pay.
However, He Huaichun was stopped by Jiang Ergou before he could shout out.
"Can!"
After hearing the answer, the little Taoist priest opened the book and read.
"Yang Dongqing, with a level of strength in the third level of the first rank, last appeared half a year ago. He fought against the master swordsman of the Southern Tang Dynasty on the border between Da Chu and the Southern Tang Dynasty."
