Pawn Crossing the River

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 all 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" still hopes to sell it for a good price, and it is difficult to make money when it is covered with bruises 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 slight skin injury. It's not that "Tianting" is more benevolent than the West Posuzhou Company, it's just that their positioning and routes are different.

Zhang Yuelu's eyes swept over these poor slaves, with no expression on his face. After all, she is not a saint. In a sense, she is also a cold-hearted person. The comment of "similar to the five-generation master" was never a simple praise. 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 the Taoism, not the world. She is a reformist from above, not an insurrectionist from below. Her background both made her possible and limited her.

There is no need to really regard her as a saint who saves the world.

The idea is good, how to do it specifically

Or something else.

The transformation of the world is not the work of one person, nor can it be accomplished by one person's efforts. It cannot be achieved unless the general trend is inevitable. When the general trend is established, heroes can take advantage of it and take advantage of it. The situation has not yet come, and the heroes can only hang up their hands and say nothing.

Zhang Yuelu did not rescue these poor people immediately, but glanced at them casually. Even if she can save this group of slaves, there will be a steady stream of slaves in the future. The root of the disaster must be cut off, but it is not easy to move the "Tianting", not to mention the support of Taiping Dao behind it. It is the founder of Jin Gong, and it 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 why "Tian Ting" did not erase these marks, it probably has something to do with "Tian Ting's" style of conduct. In essence, they are still a group of delusional and rough people with limited sophistication.

Of course, these marks are not straightforward words, which are almost instructions, but some kind of symbols, among which 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 mastered many secrets about Nanyang United Trading Company, and it was 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. Fei.

Then Zhang Yuelu uses

He used a little trick to make this woman temporarily sick, with her face sallow and her breath weak, but it was not life-threatening.

If a very valuable slave suddenly fell ill, it would be difficult to continue the auction. No one would spend a lot of money to buy a dying person. The auction house will not give up this slave easily because of the high cost. Generally, there are two options, one is to sell at a reduced price, and the other is to return the slave. The former may cost the auction house 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. Detecting or eliminating it, Zhang Yuelu's doing this 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 at 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 could think of in a short period of time. If this method doesn't 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 reverse 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 real situation

Informing the people below will seriously weaken the confidence of the entire company, and may even cause the tree to fall and the monkeys to scatter in advance. Therefore, the Wang family must have reservations and maintain a posture of having everything under control, which will cause the people below to Probably not the same thing.

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 the 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 will be much bigger, and will be escorted by a "Yinglong". In fact, it can't be called an escort. It's mainly just along the way. Jiayin Lingguan was going back to Jiugang Xuanwei Division, and he happened to be traveling on the same road as Qi Xuansu. However, after the Jiayin Lingguan made arrangements for the Xuanwei Division in Jiugang, he would 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 one's own life, no matter how big the battle is,

Not too big.

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.

However, this also made many people curse in their hearts. It’s endless, right? I just patrolled again and again. I didn’t do anything 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, and no one dares to put it into words.

Who let me get promoted? He was previously a third-grade Youyi Taoist priest, and was the second deputy palace master. Now he is a second-grade Taiyi Taoist priest and the chief deputy palace master. This is undoubtedly a big step up. Many people have never been able to cross the threshold in their lives, but Qi Xuansu just crossed it. But no one can say anything. These are all real achievements. The reason why people feel abrupt is that the time is too short, and this Master Qi is too young. If he were replaced by a seven-generation disciple who has experienced vicissitudes of life, then It won't feel abrupt, and may even feel very reasonable.

However, everything always has pros and cons. Qi Xuansu's age has become a weapon for many people to attack him and is the main reason for criticizing him. However, it is precisely because of his age that Qi Xuansu has gained some very implicit respect and status.

The reason is simple. The Chief Deputy Palace Master is of course a big shot, but he is not so big that he cannot be described as expensive. But if it is a chief deputy palace master who is less than thirty years old, it will be very scary. what does that mean? This means that he still has at least seventy years left. Even if there is a hurdle every ten years, ten years as the head of the government, and ten years as the head of the palace, it means that he will have it before he is fifty years old.

In order to compete for the qualifications of the Grand Master - no one would doubt that the Infinite Heavenly Beings under thirty years old would miss immortality.

Competing for the qualifications of the Grand Master, he is also called the Taoist Prince, which is 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 more different. Don't look at the fact that many people are very disdainful when they mention the Sixth Generation Grandmaster. Even the Sixth Generation Grandmaster can only be suppressed by the three divisions. , who among ordinary people would dare to compare themselves to the Three Masters?

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 is killed now, Qi Xuansu's rise will 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 of the Taiping Bank, as well as many local Taoist priests.

The spiritual officer and the man in black formed the inner and outer circles, 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 and then looked at Hu Fuli: "Please help me, Hu Fuli."

Hu Fuli said: "Should

That's right. "

If Hu Fuli was a little reluctant last time, then after the incident in Shenglong Mansion, he had completely seen the situation clearly and was determined to stand by Qi Xuansu's side.

Hu Fuli had only one feeling at this time.

The trend is coming.
