A swarm of heavy artillery bombarded the cultivators

"Master!"

"Brother Ding!"

When Gong Caiyu and Chen Xi saw Jiang Ding leaving, they quickly exclaimed, but saw that the other party did not stop at all and disappeared into the distance after a few breaths.

The two women looked at each other, and using their female instincts, they almost simultaneously discovered the deep malice in each other's eyes.

"Your Highness..."

After looking at each other for a moment, Gong Caiyu suddenly remembered the other person's identity, turned pale, and retreated behind her mother in fear.

"Hello, sister Caiyu."

Chen Xi showed a reserved smile: "Congratulations to sister Caiyu for rescuing my aunt. Why don't you celebrate today at my Qinghe Palace and cleanse your aunt from the dust."

Wan Qianyu, the 'Ten Flower Sword Immortal', was looking for an opportunity to assassinate her. She did not dare to stay here too long. After a brief conversation, she left in a hurry with Gong Caiyu and others.

The main reason she dared to come out this time was because she had defeated the 'Dream-Eating Sword Demon' Jiang Dingzai head-on. Now that he was gone, she naturally had to quickly return to the tightly protected palace.

…

The Four Seas Garden.

It covers an area of ​​more than ten acres, with quiet and elegant decoration, three steps to a view, five steps to a garden, rugged and strange rocks, and unique small pools can be seen everywhere. It does not have the slightest nobility of a prince, but it also has a unique style that makes people relaxed and happy.

This is the headquarters of the Sihai Chamber of Commerce in the capital. It does not accept ordinary guests, only their distinguished guests with silver medals or above. The ordinary business is placed elsewhere, fully considering the privacy of the distinguished guests.

"Master, this year's accounts have been listed."

Long Qiliang, who was transferred back from Chizhong Mansion, reported: "Compared with last year, Chizhong Mansion lost 45%, Chiling Mansion lost 30%, Dongling Mansion made 140% profit, Yuejing lost 21%, the south is better, and Wu Lingfu's profit is 30%..."

After thinking about it, most of the businesses in the north suffered losses, and the occasional profits were only scattered and not connected. The situation in the south was better, but the overall loss was still a huge amount.

"What are the reasons?"

Long Xingshang, the leader of the Sihai Chamber of Commerce, is an old man with white hair. Every hair is combed meticulously, and he has an ordinary-looking crutch in his hand.

At this time, he frowned deeply and asked.

Although it was profitable last year, there was not much left after deducting the expenses of the entire family. This year, it was completely wiped out.

Even though the chamber of commerce has financial resources, it cannot afford such consumption.

"The steward below also reported the reason. It is mainly due to the war. Our country should be entering the end of the dynasty. There is no doubt."

Long Qiliang naturally said something that seemed treasonous to outsiders, and Long Xingshang and several core shopkeepers of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce reacted calmly.

"When war breaks out, order becomes chaotic."

"There are often bandits and robbers who rob caravans. The Chamber of Commerce does not have that many warriors to protect it. The cost of hiring warriors from outside is also high. Secondly, there is chaos everywhere. They can easily get rich and even actively collude with bandits. After he gets it, he flees to another place, and there is no way to do anything about it.”

"The cost of doing business in the Chamber of Commerce has increased rapidly. Although prices and profits have also increased accordingly, they still cannot make up for it."

"Others, the shopkeepers below are corrupt, careerists are everywhere, they are no longer willing to sell business to save face, and there is a bloody battle between good and evil, etc. are all important reasons."

"also……"

Long Qiliang and the other shopkeepers looked at each other and said nothing.

"Say it."

Long Xingshang rubbed his brows: "We are all members of the Long family here, don't do what outsiders do."

"Niece Xiuyun is a very important reason for the loss and is shaking the foundation of the chamber of commerce." At this point, Long Qiliang made eye contact with several core shopkeepers and said directly:

"Niece Xiuyun is the 18th on the Dragon and Phoenix Ranking, and her name is 'Bingli'. She established the Bingli Tower to attract chivalrous ladies from the world, and the daughters of local power lords. She established a relationship with them and indirectly influenced many young heroes. This is naturally very extreme. Well, it has improved the reputation of our Four Seas Chamber of Commerce, and it is worth spending a lot of money."

"only."

Long Qiliang paused: "Confronting Princess Qinghe head-to-head caused us to lose nearly half of the royal business. Moreover, because we got too close to these young heroes, we were inevitably attacked by their rivals inside and outside the family. They are hostile and think that our Four Seas Chamber of Commerce is no longer a neutral force that can be trusted for transactions, and it has lost some business."

"Besides, Xiuyun's niece is not very suitable for business."

"The representative among them is the person I met when I was the manager of the Chizhong Mansion branch. Jiang Shaoxia, who recently defeated the innate master 'Ten Flower Sword Immortal' thousands of words in the arena and was second in the dragon and phoenix rankings."

"With the qualifications of this young hero, if he steps into Xiantian in the future, he will immediately become the top master in Xiantian. It is also very possible to become a grandmaster in the future."

"Such a person comes to buy a few hundred-year-old elixir, and according to the past style, he will definitely give equal items of equal or even greater value, but he is manipulated by Xiuyun's niece... This is really true."

"She regards herself as a royal princess, but forgets that she is the daughter of a businessman!!"

"The food, clothing, and money we give to our friends are all earned by my uncles working hard in various places, coin by coin!"

Long Qiliang and several core shopkeepers clearly expressed their extreme dissatisfaction.

"A young master who has already cooperated closely with our Sihai Chamber of Commerce. Both parties have received satisfactory benefits. In the future, they may even develop into allies to a certain extent and become the key to the prosperity of the Chamber of Commerce in the next three hundred years."

"Just like that, I was buried by Xiuyun's niece."

Long Qiliang's voice was filled with anger: "You, the guild leader, are the direct descendants, but the Sihai Chamber of Commerce is passed down from our ancestors. If you are bent on ruining the foundation of the Sihai Chamber of Commerce, I think it would be better to separate the family as soon as possible! "

Several other core shopkeepers also looked over at the same time. They all had perfect internal energy. Although their strength was lower, they were not very afraid.

"Please calm down!"

Long Xingshang did not dare to ignore this huge force: "The major forces seem to be on good terms with us, but in fact they strictly block things related to the innate. Once they dare to touch, they will immediately attract thunderous strikes. Over the past more than a hundred years, This is the first time this has happened.”

"My little girl finally found a way to the Qingniu Palace in this chaotic era and was able to open a small opening."

"No matter how good other people's talents are, how can they compare with our own talents?"

"My little girl is indeed naughty. I will definitely discipline her strictly when I go back..."

Long Qiliang and others barely suppressed their dissatisfaction, but had already made up their minds.

…

Jianzhuang.

The talisman sword was suspended in front of Jiang Ding. The sword was smeared with white essence liquid, which activated the Great Sun Spirit Gathering Array to gather the essence of the great sun and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to temper the sword body, like holding a bluish hot sun in one hand.

After a long time, Jiang Ding opened his eyes, and the talisman sword converged its light and flew into his hand.

"Fujian, complete."

Jiang Ding stroked the sword body gently, and the lines lit up and went out one after another. Each pattern appeared in his mind in detail.

After more than a month of cultivation, the Talisman Sword has reached the limit of internal strength tempering and material. The next step is to integrate into the spiritual seed and activate the "Great Sun Seed Sword Sword Refining Technique" after the Talisman Sword.

Wooden sword!

The rest will be updated at 3pm, my brain is numb.
