Chapter 273: Nanhai Chamber of Commerce Again! Laughing Yama
"I'm not teaching you, I'm just reminding you."
Pei Qing said calmly, "Pei Tong failed the Demon Suppression Envoy selection and died. The old man is grief-stricken and is now vulnerable. If you want to take action, now is the best time."
"Pei Tong is dead?"
Lu Jing was slightly surprised and sighed, "What a shame. With his talent, if he takes steady steps, reaching the enlightenment stage won't be a problem."
"It's nothing to regret. He overestimated his own abilities and insisted on going to the third floor to find treasures. It's a miracle that he didn't die."
Pei Qing sneered.
Lu Jing said: "He is your brother after all, just don't be sad, why bother to speak so coldly."
"He's not my biological brother." Pei Qing said coldly.
Lu Jing laughed sarcastically: "He is not your biological brother, Pei Xingdou is your biological grandfather. You are such a filial granddaughter that you want Pei Xingdou to die so badly."
"Shut up!"
Pei Qing was furious: "It's not your turn to interfere in our family affairs. I have served the old man for so many years, but he passed the Star Compass to Pei Tong and the position of the Pacification Envoy to Pei Hao. What does he think of me? He is unkind and I am unjust!"
Pei Qing had a ferocious expression and his eyes were full of resentment.
Lu Jing said: "Because you are a woman."
"What's wrong with me being a woman? Just because I'm a woman, you look down on me?!"
Pei Qing became even angrier.
Lu Jing said: "The Xingdou Compass is Pei Xingdou's most famous treasure. All his efforts and inheritance are in it. It is reasonable to pass it on to Pei Tong, who is the most talented and the most compatible with him.
"The position of the Pacification Envoy was given to Pei Xingdou because of his great achievements. He has the qualification to inherit the position, and he can pass it on to whomever he wants.
“Although Pei Hao’s talent is average, he is very calm and has a solid foundation. He has made contributions step by step to get to this point. He is qualified to be a pacification envoy.
“So, I think there is nothing wrong with what Pei Xingdou did, and no one can find anything wrong with it.
"Besides, you are serving him. Are you forced to do so? Haha."
Lu Jing spoke eloquently and logically, and Pei Qing's face became even more ferocious and livid. He shouted, "Shut up! I just want to ask you, do you think Pei Xingdou is right? Why don't you help me deal with Pei Xingdou?"
"Help, why not?"
Lu Jing said calmly, "I treat things one way and one way. I owe you a favor, so I'm repaying you by helping you deal with Pei Xingdou. But this doesn't mean I agree with you. I still have to make this clear, so you don't misunderstand and think that you and I are the same kind of people, haha."
"What kind of people?" Pei Qing looked vicious.
Lu Jing didn't care, and didn't answer. Instead, she suddenly changed the subject and asked, "How much benefit did the Nanhai Chamber of Commerce give you?"
"What's the benefit?"
Pei Qing's eyelids twitched and she asked in confusion.
Lu Jing smiled and said, "You should have mentioned the Nanhai Chamber of Commerce instead of the benefits. Haha."
"you!"
Pei Qing was furious.
This Lu Jing is obviously ten years younger than himself, but he is extremely shrewd, like an old monster.
In front of her, I am like a transparent person, with no secrets at all.
hateful!
Fortunately, Lu Jing is emotionally indifferent. She has an aloof attitude towards herself and others. She analyzes problems from an outsider and never gets involved in worldly disputes.
So, I don't have to worry about her betraying me.
Just as Lu Jing said, what she pursues is the supreme path, and everything else has nothing to do with her.
Only those things that affect her pursuit of the supreme path will cause waves in her heart.
Apart from that, no matter how much Lu Jing knew, she was too lazy to pay attention to it, let alone talk about it everywhere.
That is, when Pei Qing was eighteen years old, she saved Lu Jing's life in the wild by chance.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for me to ask Lu Jing for help.
"No matter how much benefit the South Sea Chamber of Commerce gives you, I only want the Xuanwei Treasure Mirror. Bring this to me, and I will help you deal with Pei Xingdou."
Lu Jing said.
Pei Qing said unhappily: "Didn't you say you would help me deal with it if I owe you a favor? Why do you still want the Xuanwei Treasure Mirror?"
Lu Jing smiled and said, "Helping your granddaughter kill her grandfather is a crime against nature and is condemned by both humans and gods. Naturally, I want a little reward to appease my kind soul."
"fart!"
Pei Qing cursed: "If you want benefits, just say it directly, don't put on a noble front! You have done many more disgusting things than me, how dare you criticize me?"
"Everything I do is for the Supreme Dao. All those who sacrificed their lives for my Supreme Dao were honored. This is a great merit. They will definitely be reborn into a good family in their next life. This is all thanks to me, and they should thank me."
Lu Jing was very calm and added: "By the way, bring me the one who killed my fishman. He who made a mistake should be punished. Otherwise, there is no justice in this world."
As she spoke, she drew lightly with her right hand, and a face appeared out of thin air in the room.
If Zhang Lingshan and Pei Tong could see it, they would be very surprised, because this face is exactly the face that Pei Tong is in disguise now.
Lu Jing never left his house, but he was able to find out who killed the fishman. His method was truly amazing.
Pei Qing snorted and memorized the face.
In my heart, I despise this person for being able to describe shamelessness in such a refreshing and refined way. He is so shameless to the extreme.
"I will bring you the Xuanwei Treasure Mirror and the murderer of the fisherman, and then I will deal with Pei Xingdou immediately. No other conditions can be given."
"Don't worry. As long as you bring it with you, I will go with you immediately. Pei Xingdou, with a half-crippled body and a spent force, is nothing more than a fish on the chopping board, ready to be slaughtered at will."
Lu Jing said calmly.
"it is good."
Pei Qing stopped talking nonsense and left the room in a flash.
……
Zhang Lingshan and Pei Tong walked very quickly and had already arrived at the Twin Cities.
The prosperity of this city is much stronger than that of Jiangcheng in Yuzhou.
Moreover, the Nanhai Chamber of Commerce is also among them.
"The Nanhai Chamber of Commerce's business is spread all over the nine provinces. It's really amazing."
Zhang Lingshan exclaimed in admiration.
Or maybe there are so many good things in Nantang Yu’s storage bag.
It's just that he is too rich.
Pei Tong said: "I heard from my grandfather that the new leader of the Nanhai Chamber of Commerce is very radical. In just over a decade, he has set up branches everywhere. The expansion speed is more than ten times faster than before. I don't know how much blood and gore he has caused.
“They also planned to set up a branch in our Qingcheng, but were stopped by my grandfather.
“But they didn’t give up and kept looking for opportunities.
“Alas, I heard that they bribed many high-ranking officials in Qingcheng, and some people in the Demon Suppression Division have been corrupted. My grandfather’s injuries have not healed, and many people have begun to stir.
"So I have to cure Grandpa, otherwise Qingcheng will become a sales floor for the Nanhai Chamber of Commerce."
Pei Tong said in a deep voice.
Zhang Lingshan's heart moved.
correct.
He had once asked Kong Dagui why there was a Nanhai Auction House in Jiangcheng but not in Yucheng, the center of Yuzhou.
Kong Dagui explained that precisely because it is the center, it must not be corrupted by money.
Once the South China Sea Chamber of Commerce is allowed to enter Yucheng, in time, it will use money to devour everyone.
No one doesn't love money.
What's more, the Nanhai Chamber of Commerce not only has money, but also a large number of treasures.
And there is always a treasure that can tempt people, and then be used by the South China Sea Chamber of Commerce to get hold of it and do something disastrous.
Therefore, no matter what, the Nanhai Chamber of Commerce cannot be allowed to enter the central city.
This is the bottom line.
If they break the bottom line, they will be unqualified as pacification envoys and will be punished by the Zhongzhou Supervisor sooner or later. "Get out of the way! The Nanhai Chamber of Commerce is doing business, please stay away!"
Suddenly, there was the sound of galloping horses, and a man shouted loudly, and the whip in his hand made a crisp sound in the air.
Everyone dodged quickly.
Pei Tong frowned.
When did the South Sea Chamber of Commerce become so arrogant, riding horses in the streets, behaving even more arrogantly than the Demon Suppression Bureau.
Is the lord of the twin cities Lu Shixiong's Lu family or the Nanhai Chamber of Commerce?
As the horse team of the South Sea Chamber of Commerce galloped away, someone in the crowd exclaimed, "How majestic."
"I heard that the Nanhai Chamber of Commerce is still recruiting people. If we can enter the Nanhai Chamber of Commerce, won't we be able to be so powerful?"
"That's right. Let's go to the Nanhai Chamber of Commerce to take the test today."
"Let's go together!"
Groups of people hit it off immediately and excitedly rushed to the Nanhai Chamber of Commerce.
Pei Tong said: "Brother Shan, how about we go and take a look too?"
Zhang Lingshan nodded.
In fact, he had no interest in the South China Chamber of Commerce, but Pei Tong was obviously indignant at the South China Chamber of Commerce's arrogance and wanted to find out what was going on. Why could the South China Chamber of Commerce be so arrogant in the Twin Cities?
It would be fine if the city lord Lu Shixiong let them go, but why did the Demon Suppression Division also let them go?
soon.
The two followed the crowd and arrived at the entrance of the Nanhai Chamber of Commerce.
It was a magnificent building, with ninety-nine steps at the entrance alone.
The people below had to look up to see the four big words "Nanhai Chamber of Commerce".
Then climb the stairs step by step to reach the main entrance.
The main entrance looks like a large square.
Zhang Lingshan and Pei Tong followed the crowd up and were immediately assigned to a team.
Across the line stood a middle-aged man in a green robe. He was tall and sturdy. He looked down at everyone and said, "Do you want to join our Nanhai Chamber of Commerce?"
"Yes, sir. We have admired the South China Sea Chamber of Commerce for a long time, so we want to join the Chamber of Commerce and contribute our part."
The man at the front of the queue said in a somewhat flattering tone.
The middle-aged man in green robe snorted, "Our Nanhai Chamber of Commerce is the largest chamber of commerce in the Dayu Dynasty. If you want to join our Nanhai Chamber of Commerce, you must have extraordinary skills. What skills do you have?"
"I am good at beating people. If anyone dares to cause trouble in the South China Sea Chamber of Commerce, I will beat him to pieces..."
"roll!"
Before he could finish his words, he was slapped by the middle-aged man in green robe and flew away. He rolled down the stairs and ran away in a mess.
The middle-aged man in green robe snorted coldly: "What kind of trash dares to come and fill the number. I ask you, does anyone dare to cause trouble in our Nanhai Chamber of Commerce?"
"No no."
The man behind hurriedly shook his head.
Yes.
No one dares to cause trouble in the Nanhai Chamber of Commerce. What do they want a loser like you who can only beat people up?
Moreover, you, a piece of trash, are so weak that you can’t even withstand a slap from the middle-aged man in green robe.
Are you good at beating people?
"What skills do you have?" the middle-aged man in green robe asked the next person.
The man said quickly, "I am good at identifying treasures. For example, this green fish cup is a treasure that I found on the black market. Please take a look, sir."
As he spoke, he held a small cup in his hand and placed it in front of the middle-aged man in green robe.
The middle-aged man in green robe took the green fish bowl, examined it carefully for a moment, and put it in his storage bag. He said, "Not bad. You are qualified to join our Nanhai Chamber of Commerce."
"Thank you, sir!"
The gray-haired old man immediately bowed excitedly.
At his age, there is not much development in the future. He is already satisfied with being able to work in the Nanhai Chamber of Commerce.
Not to mention showing off, at least no one will dare to bully him anymore.
"Go stand behind me."
The middle-aged man in green robe said.
The gray-haired old man immediately stood behind him, looking at the others with pride and satisfaction on his face.
Seeing the gray-haired old man pass through smoothly, the people behind him seemed to have their Ren and Du meridians opened up, and they all offered up their treasures.
pity.
They thought they were treasures, but the middle-aged man in green robe did not necessarily think highly of them. Instead, he felt insulted and not only blew them away, but even crushed the treasures they presented to him.
In short, when Zhang Lingshan and Pei Tong came forward, there were only two people standing behind the middle-aged man in green robe, and one of them was the gray-haired old man.
As for the other one, he was a formation master. He did not offer any treasures, but was recognized by the middle-aged man in green robe.
It can be seen that this middle-aged man in green robe is loyal to his duties and does not accept gifts indiscriminately without principles.
From this we can also see that the management of the Nanhai Chamber of Commerce is also unique. At least it will not collect waste.
"What are your skills?"
It was Pei Tong's turn. The middle-aged man in green robe saw that Pei Tong was not very old and asked expressionlessly.
He was ready to slap the young man away.
Young people, who have not suffered the beatings of society, want to take part in every excitement. He is particularly happy to teach young people a lesson and let them know that not every excitement in this world can be taken advantage of.
Especially the bustle of our Nanhai Chamber of Commerce.
Without any skills, he rashly walked up the stairs and came to the Chamber of Commerce Square. This is an insult to our Nanhai Chamber of Commerce.
If so many useless people came every day to join the Nanhai Chamber of Commerce, wouldn't the level of our Nanhai Chamber of Commerce be lowered?
"That is……"
Pei Tong's expression suddenly changed. He ignored the middle-aged man in green robe and looked towards the entrance of the Chamber of Commerce hall.
I saw a woman in a purple robe walking out of the door, and next to her was a man wearing the green robe of an elder of the South China Sea Chamber of Commerce. The two of them were talking and laughing.
rub.
Pei Tong immediately flashed and hid behind Zhang Lingshan, using Zhang Lingshan's body to block him.
"what happened?"
Zhang Lingshan asked doubtfully.
Pei Tong whispered: "That's my cousin Pei Qing. The one next to him is the Laughing Yama Yan Feng, who is cruel and ruthless and will do anything to achieve his goals.
“He once approached my grandfather and wanted to open the South China Sea Chamber of Commerce in our Qingcheng, but my grandfather refused.
"He was very angry and forced my grandfather to fight, which made his injuries worse...
"My grandfather specifically told us to stay away from Yan Feng, but I didn't expect Sister Qing to be hanging out with him!"
Pei Tong was heartbroken.
In the past, grandpa told me to stay away from Pei Qing, saying that Pei Qing had bad intentions. I even spoke up for Pei Qing and complained that grandpa was not good to Sister Qing. Sister Qing often came to serve you, but you still said bad things about her behind her back.
After hearing this, Pei Xingdou smiled but said nothing. However, he secretly assigned Pei Qing to the Twin Cities and forced Pei Qing to distance herself from Pei Tong and the others.
At that time, Pei Tong felt indignant for Pei Qing and went to talk to his grandfather several times, but his grandfather remained unmoved and insisted on having his own way.
Pei Tong was quite dissatisfied with this and felt that his grandfather was getting old and confused.
But now it seems.
It's my own fault that I'm confused.
Looking at Pei Qing and Xiao Yanluoyan's smiling faces, they were almost hugging each other.
Such intimacy is definitely not acted.
He finally understood why the South China Sea Chamber of Commerce was so arrogant in the Twin Cities. It was because Pei Qing was backing them up.
