Ask Sword

When I arrived in Chang'an, there were many more opportunities. I sold the furs in the village and earned the first pot of gold. I bought saws, axes, shovels, hoes, cattle, horses, vehicles, meat and vegetables, etc. to further develop the resources of Montenegro. Such as trees, gemstones, ivory, etc.

Ivory is a good thing. There are many 'fossils' of extinct mammoths buried in the tundra of Montenegro. The ivory has been buried in the soil for a long time and has been infiltrated by minerals. The surface will show colorful colors. The ivory Size, color type, depth, texture and other factors will affect the specific price.

The person-high blue ivory decoration in the hall of Pei Su's home in Zuo Pushe, Minister of the State of Yu, was dug out by my team and sold to Chang'an. A single transaction made a profit of 30,000 Guan.

Lu Yunan's tone gradually became more relaxed, However, just like the world we came to, Chang'an City is full of dignitaries who are good at stealing and plundering.

Relying on the ability to predict, I know who can be trusted and who cannot be trusted, which temple to ask for and which dock to worship when encountering problems.

The shopkeeper Jin Wusuan is really a good person. He helped me several times when I started my career. With his matchmaking, I met Li Nanlei, the daughter of King Zhao, the owner of Le'an County. Became the white glove of Prince Zhao's Mansion.

With the protection of Prince Zhao's Mansion, I have the courage to continue to expand my business. Using the knowledge of the previous life, he made the black wood in the north into a wooden kettle and sold it to Chang'an.

Once this thing was launched, it sold very well, and the annual output value is in the millions.

Out of this much money, my business only takes a small part, but this amount is enough to make everyone in the tribe earn a lot of money.

Build roads, build bridges, and open up farmland in the mountains, so you don't have to worry about food anymore.

By the way, take some money to bribe the Turkic nobles, so that their sweeping nets will be lenient.

By the way, I heard that shopkeeper Jin was diagnosed with cancer by you? what a pity

Lu Yunan shook her head with emotion. Relying on her foresight ability, she accumulated wealth overtly and secretly as much as Chang'an's dignitaries, and she was especially well informed about the dark side of Chang'an.

Ask Jiao Cheng? Hehe, according to the rumors in the market, Jiao Cheng can only live by relying on the book that records the black history of officials, big and small. This is obviously wrong.

If Jiao Chengzhen had no background, he would have been assassinated by the wealthy monks who were unhappy with him.

His upline is Xue San, the chief steward of Xue's residence.

Xue Mansion?

Li Ang said in surprise, Could it be.

That's right, it's Zhongshu Ling Xue Ji.

Lu Yunan pursed her lips and said, In a sense, money doesn't count, and I, Jiao Cheng, are all in the same category.

Jin Wusuan and I are white gloves, responsible for raising money for the people above,

What Jiao Cheng does is dirty work that is not visible to others.

According to my estimate, Xue Ji used Jiao Cheng to secretly control the court bureaucrats. No, the word control is a bit too strong, it should be said to be calculating.

Li Ang scratched his cheek when he heard the words, he didn't expect that the person above Jiao Cheng would be Zhongshu Ling Xue Ji, With Xue Ji's official position, he doesn't need to use such a risky method to consolidate his position at all.

Lu Yunan smiled slightly, That's right, Xue Ji doesn't need it himself, but others do.

For example, Queen Xue, for example, the prince.

The official black information collected by Jiao Cheng can be released through the censor when necessary, stirring up the situation in the court, and thus secretly protecting the prince.

The whole process doesn't even need the crown prince to know.

Turning around, Jiao Cheng turned out to be the queen's pawn.

Li Ang couldn't laugh or cry in his heart, and he had a new understanding of the situation at that time.

The reason why Jiao Cheng wanted to explore the tomb of the Sword Immortal was probably inspired by the people above, and he was required to search for the treasure in the tomb. Strengthen the power for the prince.

Of course, it is also possible that Jiao Cheng himself did not understand the situation, did not know the identity of his prince and pawn, and tried to use the treasure in the tomb of the sword fairy to get rid of the fate of being abandoned.

Jin Wusuan and Jiao Cheng are the queen's pawns, while I am attached to Zhao Wangfu.

Lu Yunan said: There is one thing you may not know. When you came to Chang'an to take the entrance examination for the academy,

Xuegong Siye Xi Yangyu publicly said that you have no spiritual talent and asked you to give up the exam,

It was the instruction from Li Nanlei, the princess of Le'an County.

Um?

Li Ang was stunned for a moment, he really didn't know about this.

He recalled the name that he hadn't heard for a long time, Why? Could it be because I took an extra look at her at Chang'an Station?

It's possible. Although she is kind to me, I have to say that she is indeed a very standard spoiled and domineering lady.

Lu Yunan pursed her lips and said, Of course there is another possibility. Your recommender is Cheng Juxiu. Cheng Juxiu and He Siping are very close, and He Siping is the prince's man. And she likes Li Shan, King of Light.

So see you as a threat to Li Shan.

Li Ang was dumbfounded, Huh? What kind of innocent disaster is this?

Your current status can already affect the future throne. Facts have proved that she guessed right.

Lu Yunan said: Well, she is my benefactor. I explain this matter, and I hope you can see it for my sake, and don't pursue her in the future.

No problem.

Li Ang said: In a sense, if she hadn't instructed Xi Yangyu to tell me in advance what I couldn't practice, I might have stepped into the final exam room without knowing it and failed to pass.

Misfortunes depend on blessings, and blessings lie on misfortunes.

Li Nanlei's love for the King of Light, Li Shan, made her instruct Xi Yangyu to pronounce the hexagram of the broken skull sword that she could not practice,

When I was thinking about countermeasures at home, I was hijacked by Jiao Cheng, who was the queen's pawn, and went to the tomb of the sword fairy, got Mosi, and finally passed the final exam of the academy.

Now that Li Shan has become his friend, Li Leling also exchanged sachets with him, and he can only feel the strangeness of fate.

Talking from the past life to the present life, before they knew it, the rain outside the tent quietly stopped, and Lu Yunan also yawned and gradually fell asleep.

After she woke up and took over the duty of night watch, Li Ang also slept soundly.

Facing the same lonely girl who probably understood him the most in the world, Li Ang let go of his previous disguise, put down his vigilance and defenses, and fell into a deep sleep.

————

Opening his eyes again, what Li Ang saw was not the familiar tent and Lu Yunan.

He was in the vast and desolate wilderness, the weeds were sparse and swaying in the wind, and there was a figure standing in front of him, all of them turned their backs to him, staring at the deep and dark sky in the distance.

The sky is falling.

A tall figure in a monk's cassock slowly spoke Sanskrit, with unparalleled compassion and sorrow in his voice.

The sky is falling.

A figure in Tsing Yi and holding a long sword stroked his beard with a calm and indifferent voice.

The sky is falling!

A figure dressed in luxurious clothes from Mount Taihao knelt down and kowtowed with excitement.

The figures in front spoke the same sentence one after another, with different tones.

Li Ang felt creepy, and unconsciously wanted to back down and withdraw from the crowd.

Snapped!

A palm like iron pincers firmly grasped Li Ang,

He suddenly turned his head to look, and it turned out to be the head of the mountain.

The sky is falling.

The head of the mountain was expressionless, looking straight at Li Ang, and two lines of blood and tears flowed from his eyes.
