Becoming a Saint by Leisure Reading

Dongcang City, the council hall.

​​

At noon.

​​

"Qin Chengshou, that's not what I said. I heard rumors that Dongcangcheng named and purchased these barbarian things, and it was also to support you, so I gathered enough goods to pull the caravan over thousands of miles." The old man in the small hat said, "Now that we and the goods have arrived, but you say no to accepting it, aren't we going to make a trip in vain?"

​​

"Yeah! If this is the case, we won't come to Dongcang City in the future." Another middle-aged man with a big scorpion on the corner of his mouth also said.

​​

Several other people nodded.

​​

Qin Dangguo looked at the few people in front of him, frowning tightly.

​​

These people are not the single-gang traffickers like Lao Hu before, but the so-called "sit on the ground". To put it bluntly, these "squatting tigers" are Erdao dealers. They buy those barbarian items that cannot see the light from various channels and send them to Daxuan for reselling. The network behind them involves the Daxuan court, the military, and even aristocratic families.

​​

Maybe you won't be able to get any high-quality products, but it's better than the stable supply.

​​

The old man wearing a small hat, called Ma Xingxian, was the head of the Ma family in Lanzhou. The Ma family is not a wealthy family, and the mainstay of the family is just a three-character scholar. However, it is said that the Ma family has a good relationship with several barbarian bands on the barbarian plains, so they can often get enough barbarian items.

​​

Everyone else has a similar background, but the stall is not as big as the Ma family.

​​

Qin Dangguo took a sip from the teacup, thinking about the countermeasures in his mind.

​​

It was true that he did not think carefully before, and released the news of the acquisition. According to Qin Dangguo's understanding, that is, a few small caravans in the vicinity would take a risk to visit Dongcang City. But who would have thought of Chen Luo's golden signboard, the news spread along the "Da Xuan Min Daily".

​​

As a result, a large cart of half-blood grass that used to be traded in bundles suddenly appeared, and Chen Luo was emptied in an instant. Now other caravans have delivered the goods to the door, and they said that they have no money and will not accept it... This is going to be small. In other words, it was Dongcangcheng's lack of strength, and to entertain others, it has damaged the prestige of the Marquis.

​​

Besides, if Dongcang City develops in the future, the support of these people will still be indispensable. After all, their supply of goods is stable.

​​

But right now, there really is no money left...

​​

Qin Dangguo has some headaches. Even though he has innumerable strategies to run the country and secure the country, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice. People put their named goods at the door, just ask for money, what should I do?

​​

The goods are no problem!

​​

Apart from Chen Luo, Dongcang City has no replacement resources available!

​​

Otherwise, let the city lord write a few manuscripts for them?

​​

No, no, no, there is no difference between exchanging property with manuscripts and selling calligraphy and paintings on the street. It is simply sweeping the floor.

​​

If it spreads out, do you still need the face of Dongcang City? Do you still want the majesty of Lord Hou? Do you still want the holy majesty of the Bamboo Sage?

​​

Ma Xingxian saw that Qin Dangguo had been silent all this time. Although he was very anxious on his face, he was extremely happy in his heart.

​​

Unexpectedly, this time things went so smoothly.

​​

That's right, he came for Chen Luo. When he heard that Dongcangcheng needed to purchase barbarian goods, he immediately called friends and brought the caravan to Dongcangcheng.

​​

Originally thought that this time I could only get familiar with it, but I didn't expect it to be just in time.

​​

Maybe, your idea can be a success!

​​

Cough..." Ma Xingxian coughed twice.

​​

"Qin Chengshou, this old man has a suggestion!" Ma Xingxian said.

​​

Qin Dangguo's eyelids jumped, do you want to see the poor dagger?

​​

"In this way, since these goods are requested by name, they must also be urgently needed in Dongcang City. Since I have brought all the goods, I will stay in Dongcang City and will not bring them back." Ma Xingxian smiled lightly, "However, Wuhou needs to promise me to wait for one condition."

​​

Qin Dangguo put down the teacup: "The manuscripts of Lord Hou are extremely precious, you can't..."

​​

"No no no..." Ma Xingxian planned what Qin Dangguo said, "This old man does not ask for the manuscript of Lord Hou."

​​

Qin Dangguo frowned slightly: "Then what's your suggestion?"

​​

Ma Xingxian gave a dry laugh: "In this way, this time, everything brought by my Ma family will be given to Wuhou for free."

​​

"My Ma family also bought the goods of other friends and presented them to Wuhou."

​​

"It's just a bundle of cultivators!"

​​

Qin Dangguo was stunned for a moment: "Apprentice? Shun repair?"

​​

Ma Xingxian said with a smile: "My Ma family is not a scholarly family, and the old eldest brother in the family has been promoted to the realm of great Confucianism."

​​

"If Wuhou is willing to accept a direct descendant of my Ma family as a disciple, then my Ma family will fully support Wuhou's great cause of rebuilding Dongcang City!"

​​

To have a relationship with Chen Luo is to have a relationship with Zhu Sheng. Moreover, Chen Luo has no disciples yet. If he were to worship him at this time, no matter what his name was, in the eyes of others, he would be the first disciple of the mountain.

​​

This transaction is a steady profit without loss!

​​

It's not that other aristocratic families can't see this relationship, but that when Chen Luo was in Zhongjing, those big clans who were qualified to speak couldn't hold back their faces, and they always thought about waiting for Chen Luo to drive another three thousand miles before talking about it.

​​

That is to say, Chen Luo has just arrived in Dongcang City, and his foothold is unstable. His Ma family started out as a businessman, and he didn't care about his face, so they seized this opportunity.

​​

Thinking of this, Ma Xingxian's eyes lit up: "Not only this time, but every year, my Ma family can transport a batch of barbarian goods to Dongcang City."

​​

"Master Qin, why don't you ask Marquis Wu for his opinion?"

​​

……

​​

The space of the tomb of the living dead in the backyard fluctuated for a while, and Chen Luo jumped out of it.

​​

It's a good risk, I finally found the entrance at the last minute of the transformation effect.

​​

Chen Luo stretched his waist. To be honest, he was still comfortable under Heaven. Although Mantian didn't affect him, he still felt uncomfortable.

​​

Chen Luo didn't intend to accept Wuliang Bucha's invitation at all, and even planned to kill him.

​​

Although it was exciting to unite with the barbarians to slaughter the barbarians, Wuliangbucha would definitely investigate his own background after returning to the ancient city of Tuocheng.

The military system of the barbarians is not as rigorous as that of Daxuan, but it is still possible to investigate which force of the tribes in a certain region collects grain. After going back and forth, doesn’t Wuliangbucha know that he is not a grain collector at all?

​​

Well, let's avoid the limelight first.

​​

Just as he was thinking, Chen Luo heard a quarrel coming from the main hall.

​​

……

​​

"Master Qin, why don't you ask Marquis Wu's opinion?" As soon as Ma Xingxian finished speaking, Chen Luo's voice came from the back court—

​​

"No way!"

​​

Everyone looked sideways, and saw Chen Luo walk into the political hall from the backyard with his hands behind his back, and everyone stood up and saluted.

​​

"I have seen Wuhou!"

​​

"I have seen Lord Hou!"

​​

"I have seen Lord City Lord!"

​​

……

​​

Chen Luo waved his hand and asked everyone to sit down. He sat on the main seat himself and looked at Ma Xingxian: "Old man, do you want me to accept your children as disciples?"

​​

Ma Xingxian hurriedly stood up and saluted: "Old Ma Xingxian, dare to think a thing or two, I wonder if Ma Jiazi has this blessing?"

​​

Chen Luo smiled lightly: "Ben Hou is still young and has no plans to accept apprentices!"

​​

Ma Xingxian wanted to say something else, but Chen Luo raised his hand to interrupt Ma Xingxian: "Tell me one by one, let's talk about the goods first."

​​

Chen Luo looked at Qin Dangguo: "Chengshou, do they have the order?"

​​

Qin Dangguo nodded quickly and handed over a piece of paper. The paper recorded the goods and quantities brought by the Ma family and others this time. Chen Luo took the order and measured it.

​​

Ma Xingxian hurriedly explained: "Master Hou, the goods we brought this time are all the items we need according to the news handed down by Qin Chengshou, and now in the winter season, apart from us, it is difficult to have such a source of goods. "

​​

Chen Luo nodded and put down the order: "I really want these things, but it's a pity, we can't get these things now."

​​

"But because of the silver tael problem? As long as the Marquis..."

​​

Chen Luo waved his hand: "It's not the silver tael's problem. It's because you are late... There are too many of these things in our East Cang City."

​​

"There is no need to acquire any more."

​​

When Chen Luo said this, everyone was stunned, and even Qin Dangguo looked at Chen Luo in surprise.

​​

Ma Xingxian frowned slightly: "Master Hou is joking... As far as the old man knows, it seems that Hu Leshan is the only one who has pulled a cart of half-blooded grass, right?"

​​

"Forget it, since Lord Hou spoke in person, it seems that I really cannot wait. Let's take the goods back and say goodbye!" Ma Xingxian bowed his hands, and the others also stood up and saluted, intending to leave with Ma Xingxian.

​​

Qin Dangguo looked anxiously at Chen Luo, and refused so bluntly, for fear that it would be difficult for Dongcang City to do business in the future.

​​

"Hold on, everyone." Chen Luo said.

​​

"I, Chen Luo, are not the kind of person who perfunctoryly entertains others. Since you don't believe me, let me show you all, do I have any of these goods in Dongcang City?"

​​

As Chen Luo spoke, he walked directly to the council hall, and Ma Xingxian followed behind Chen Luo suspiciously.

​​

Chen Luo took out the storage order and tapped it twice. Immediately, the square in front of the council hall was instantly filled with all kinds of supplies, and a peculiar aura of the barbarian spirit material rushed to his face.

​​

"This... this is the **** grass? God, this is the **** grass that was pulled within three days. It is several times better than the quality we brought."

​​

"Blood Shadow Fruit? Lord Hou, how did you get such a large amount of Blood Shadow Fruit? Can you sell me 200, no, 100, I'll buy it at a high price!"

​​

"Luofenghua! It's actually Luofenghua! This is the main material of Luofengdan, and it has always been cultivated only by certain tribes. I haven't received a hundred flowers for a year, but here...there are not less than 10,000 flowers!"

​​

"Master Ma, come and see, is this the meat and bones of a hump beast? My saint, this hump beast meat is only eaten by the elites of the barbarian army for seven days, Lord Hou, what kind of ditch are you... ...I'm talking too much. Lord Hou, how about selling me a hundred catties? I'll exchange all the goods I brought this time!"

​​

Looking at the densely packed barbarian spiritual materials on the square in front of the hall, only two people were dumbfounded and motionless.

​​

One is Master Qin. He doesn't know where his city lord got so many barbarian spiritual materials. He clearly has so many. Why did you ask me to buy it!

​​

I am a talented prime minister. I haggle with their merchants every day. I am not clean anymore!

​​

angry!

​​

The other is Ma Xingxian. From his experience, the moment these spiritual materials appeared, he knew that they were barbarian spiritual materials of excellent quality.

​​

Often, only the military tribute to the Khan tribe can have such a quality~www.wuxiamtl.com~ Could it be that the Marquis robbed the barbarian grain transport team?

​​

What a joke!

​​

Ma Xingxian swallowed his saliva. Compared with the barbarian spiritual materials all over the ground, the goods they brought were hardly worth mentioning.

​​

As expected, he was still delusional.

​​

After all, the Ma family's vision is too low, and they don't even know what a saint's heritage is.

​​

Ma Xingxian sighed and bowed deeply to Chen Luo: "It's the Ma family who is reckless, trying to use a little profit to gain a lot of wealth. The old man admits his mistake like Lord Hou."

​​

"The Ma family has the right to make amends for this shipment!"

​​

Ma Xingxian sighed, stood up, and was about to go out, but was stopped by Chen Luo.

​​

"Mr. Ma, wait a minute!"

​​

"There will be a martial arts institute in Dongcang City, and the Marquis himself will serve as the mountain chief!"

​​

"If there are disciples in the Ma family who are willing to practice martial arts, they can come and try."

​​

"The students of the Wuyuan Academy are all disciples of Benhou."

​​

Ma Xingxian was stunned for a moment, looked at Chen Luo, and after a while, he bowed to the end again: "The Martial Academy has needs, and the Ma family will do their best!"

​​

Chen Luo smiled lightly.

​​

Alliance Lord get!
