Gu Immortal, Gu Gu Gu Gu Gu Gu

The once prosperous West Street market is now deserted.

In addition to Wanbao Pavilion being inspected and closed, various shops also cleared out their goods. Except for a few that still had their small doors open to receive some old customers, most of them hung up signs stating that they were temporarily closed.

"It is the nature of merchants to hoard goods and sell them at a high price. The current empress must want to boost the confidence of the people."

Liu Chengwu was very clear about people’s current psychology. They were all very afraid that the beast tide would break through the border and spread from the territory of Dayan Kingdom.

This will mean disruption to transport capacity and even soaring prices of daily necessities.

After the border was lost, the Great Yan Kingdom would lose a large area of ​​land. This was a foreseeable loss and crisis.

People are also waiting for the empress's response and the countermeasures taken by the State of Yan.

But from the current perspective, the empress's court team has done too many things that are not satisfactory.

If the empress cannot come up with a charter that satisfies the people, calls will arise to resolve the problem based on public opinion.

People like the King of Qin would take this opportunity to rise.

"Manager Liu, didn't you just sell a batch of goods a few days ago? Are you in such a hurry to use the Yuanshi? You're here to sell goods again!"

The small door of the back house of Wanbao Pavilion was opened, and a beautiful woman stood sideways. She had a pretty face and was wearing a colorful fairy dress. When she walked, she looked like a fairy covered in neon lights. She greeted Liu Chengwu with a smile.

"The situation in the city has become increasingly chaotic. The master asked me to sell everything I could, fearing that I wouldn't be able to get a good price in the future."

Liu Chengwu walked forward with a serious expression and handed the bag of queen bee honey to the beautiful woman.

"Oh? Fourth-level Queen Bee Gu Honey? This stuff is scarce, especially such high-quality Gu Honey, which is in short supply."

The beautiful woman unfolded the bundle, took a look, and immediately gave Liu Chengwu a bright smile.

For Jinyuan Pavilion, money is not important.

What is important is to be able to provide new and unique goods that the empress likes very much, like Liu Chengwu, and to provide talents with great added value to Jinyuan Pavilion.

Therefore, they were not opposed to Liu Chengwu's behavior of frequently approaching them to sell their goods.

"Manager Zhao, I actually came here this time to talk about something else."

Liu Chengwu was not in a hurry to urge the transaction of Yuanshi. He looked around vigilantly and lowered his voice deliberately. His mysterious look aroused the interest of Mrs. Zhao from Wanbao Pavilion.

"I have heard that Mr. Li has returned home. If you need any help, just let me know. Wanbao Pavilion will not ignore a friend's request for help."

Manager Zhao has a businesslike attitude. Even though Wanbao Pavilion has been sealed by the empress, she still has the confidence to talk about funding. This is the difference between businessmen and secluded family forces.

"How can I accept food given out of pity?" Liu Chengwu quickly expressed his attitude, bowing and clasping his fists.

This is to express gratitude for Wanbao Pavilion's trust, and also to prove that I am a capable and valuable trading partner.

Don't let people misunderstand you as someone trying to climb the social ladder, which will cause the value of the information to depreciate.

"Manager Liu, just speak frankly. You understand the size and background of Wanbao Pavilion, and I am not deliberately trying to misunderstand you."

Mrs. Zhao also responded seriously and had a hunch that this Li Changsheng family, the owner of the caravan passing through the northern border, would bring considerable profits to Wanbao Pavilion.

"My channel told me a piece of news today. The situation on the grassland changed suddenly. Several tribes unified and elected a grassland king."

Liu Chengwu knows how to do business. He only starts with the initial words. Without paying a price, it is impossible to get more.

"King of the Grassland!?"

Mrs. Zhao's almond-shaped eyes widened, and a blush suddenly appeared on her pretty face. It was the surge of blood caused by the intense excitement.

It is conceivable how much influence Liu Chengwu's brief words have, which can make a knowledgeable and well-known Gu Master pale in comparison.

"Please come in and discuss in detail."

Mrs. Zhao no longer cared about her modesty and was about to pull Liu Chengwu away.

"Three hundred thousand yuan worth of stones. I will tell your Chamber of Commerce everything." Liu Chengwu took root under his feet and did not move at all.

Are you kidding? Wanbao Pavilion is a hidden family. In order to march into Kyoto, they have used many bloody means.

As for today's breaking news, they will definitely try to prevent it from being spread.

If Liu Chengwu was foolish enough to be dazzled by the beauty and gentleness of the beautiful woman, he would probably not even see the sun tomorrow.

"Okay, just tell me quietly."

The beautiful woman also knew that Wanbao Pavilion had a bad reputation and had been sealed off by the empress.

It was already not easy for Liu Chengwu to choose to share information with them at the moment. If he still cared about the dissatisfaction in his heart, the loss would be too great.

"The grassland king is from the Tuoba clan. He relied on subduing the grassland wolf king to gain the power to control thousands or even tens of thousands of wolf poisons. His true identity and strength are unknown, but it is said that he has conquered several major forces on the grassland and unified the northern grasslands."

"In addition, this grassland king is very young, and he consciously manipulates the grassland's economic lifelines such as the circulation of Gu insects and Yuanshi. He does things in a high-profile manner, but he is extremely low-key."

"My people also said that his target is Yushan, the legendary Yushan on the grassland, a Yushan with countless raw materials of Yuanshi."

After Liu Chengwu finished speaking, Mrs. Zhao's pretty face was already covered with a cloud of gloom.

She obviously discovered the problem. No grassland king in history had ever targeted Yushan.

The reason why this grassland king chose Yushan as his target was not only because of the tempting-sounding Yuanshi mine, but also because he wanted to find a way to cross Yushan.

What does this mean? It means that the grassland king may have known that civil strife in Yan was imminent, and he wanted to lead his people over Yushan Mountain to participate in the historical event of dividing Yan.

Even the Yushan ore is just an excuse to fool people.

"Who is your man? Are his words credible?"

Liu Chengwu blinked and did not respond at all. He spread his hands and looked directly at Mrs. Zhao.

"Manager Liu, you should at least make a guarantee that the news is true." Mrs. Zhao sighed in her heart, knowing that she couldn't get anything out of her.

"One hand is intelligence, the other hand is Yuanshi. I can share intelligence with you based on mutual trust. If you have doubts, then I don't need to waste my words."

Liu Chengwu withdrew his hand and stood there like a bamboo pole, giving people the feeling that he was a scholar doing business, with a strong sense of stubbornness and competition.

But who made him have the first-hand information? Besides, Mrs. Zhao was very confident before.

"Okay, I'll believe you this time, but we'll verify the news if there's any problem."

"I will return every penny of the three hundred thousand yuan worth of stones to you." Liu Chengwu made the guarantee.

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhao finally relaxed and returned to the courtyard to get the Yuanshi for the transaction.

Liu Chengwu became impatient at the right time, put away the toad poison and left quickly.

Not long after, on the top floor of Wanbao Pavilion.

"Miss cousin, something big has happened."

The cousin put down her jade flute and turned her head to look at the impetuous Mrs. Zhao.

"What the young lady was worried about has happened. A force that can threaten Dayan has emerged on the grassland. The day when the grassland is unified is probably not far away!"

Upon hearing this, the cousin screamed and dropped the jade flute, breaking it into two pieces.

"Quick, send me to the palace to see the empress. The common opportunity for the Great Yan Kingdom and my Huoyun Valley has come."

The cousin was both excited and worried, with mixed emotions, but it is undeniable that she is worthy of being the protagonist's savior.

From the profit-seeking plan for plundering resources shared by the villain Li Changsheng, we can see a glimmer of opportunity to save the Yan Kingdom from its decline.
