The Osawada family has been guarding the Seven Star Tower for two hundred years, and the harvest is gradually not as good as before. There are many examples of returning empty-handed. But this time, it is said that the stars are shining brightly and it is the year of glory. Among them, a life-enhancing treasure was born. The news is half true and half false. It comes from within the Tian family and is 50% reliable..." Chong Xuan Sheng leaned on a special chair and said seriously: "That's what happened. "
With the vast territory of Qi State, there are abundant cultivation resources and various secret realms.
For example, the Tianfu Secret Realm is completely under Qi Ting's control. Tianfu City was even built based on this place.
The Seven Star Tower is also one of the famous secret places in Qi State. It's just that this secret place belongs to the Osawada clan. It can be said that the Osawada clan relied on this secret place to make their fortune.
After years of struggle and compromise, the current Seven Star Tower still belongs to the Tian family, but most of the places need to be opened to allow other people from Qidi to participate.
Historically, there would be a concentrated explosion of treasures in the Seven Star Tower every few years or decades, which was called the "Year of Glory." But there are no rules.
The recent openings have yielded mediocre results, and the Qixing Building is no longer as attractive as before.
This "year of glory" is said to be the result of divination by a mysterious fortune teller. The Tian family tried every means to cover it up, but the news finally came out.
The so-called longevity-enhancing treasures are actually inconspicuous in the harvest of the so-called "Year of Glory", because although the harvests in the Seven Star Tower are varied, I have never heard of any outstanding longevity-enhancing treasures.
What really attracted attention was the discovery of a treasure involving the secret of the outer building. But no one can tell what it is specifically and whether it really exists. In short, it is spread mysteriously, and news is flying all over the sky.
There is no doubt that for Jiang Wang now, longevity-enhancing treasures are extremely attractive. Especially longevity-enhancing treasures other than longevity fruits and longevity pills. He desperately needs life-extending treasures to fill up his life span and make up for his regrets, so that he can move forward in a big way.
Kureiyuan and his party made him aware of his regrets. For the long-term plan, he has been paying attention to news in this regard recently. Chong Xuan Sheng is also helping him collect it, but this kind of thing is hard to come by.
"It's only 50% reliable..." Jiang Wang thought for a while: "There's no need to make a trip."
Chong Xuansheng glared at him: "Who can tell what will appear in the Seven Star Tower? If it is 50% reliable, it is already very safe."
"Something I can't even explain..."
"I know what you are thinking." Zhong Xuansheng interrupted him: "Do you think that I can't have fun without you? Are you too swollen, Mr. Jiang? With your weight, no matter how much you weigh, No matter how much it expands, it can’t reach me!”
Jiang Wang felt moved and amused at the same time: "Yes, yes, of course you can play around. You are so round, you can spin more than ten times in one go!"
Zhong Xuansheng was choked and couldn't help but look at Fourteen: "Look, what does he look like now? Where did that simple young man who was not good at words go? Now he spends money in the garden every day and talks."
"Hmph." He said angrily: "Xu Gao'e is really a black sheep and has caused a lot of trouble!"
Jiang Wanggang wanted to retaliate, "I didn't learn this from you," but Zhong Xuansheng had already blocked Xu Xiangqian's mouth. The skill of bickering is really not something to be underestimated.
I don't know if Xu Xiangqian sneezed or not.
"Blame him, blame him." Jiang Wang gave up on having the upper hand with his words and became serious: "Are you really okay?"
Zhong Xuansheng smiled confidently: "Go to Caishikou now and chat with any aunt. She can remind you that the Jubao Chamber of Commerce will be gone soon. Don't buy anything from their chamber of commerce to prevent these people from going crazy before they die. Tell me, do I have any problems?"
Jiang Wang looked at Fourteen again. Fourteen's expression was always hidden under the heavy armor, but he nodded slightly.
The Jubao Chamber of Commerce has become "alive" again during this period, with intense activities in all aspects. But those who had real serious relationships were "wisely" kept silent. The rest of those who were moved by the heavy profits were suppressed by Zhong Xuansheng and the Sihai Merchant Alliance.
Wang Yiwu has expressed his confidence in the Jubao Chamber of Commerce many times, but he is not good at management and has not been able to provide any practical resources to support the Jubao Chamber of Commerce. Just a statement will not help at all. It is almost enough to replace the military god Jiang Mengxiong with this statement - and this is simply impossible.
If Jiang Mengxiong was willing to come forward to help Wang Yiwu express this attitude, Zhongxuanzun might have taken control of the Zhongxuan family long ago, and it would not be Zhongxuansheng's turn to come forward, and the situation in front of him would not happen at all...
All in all, in the competition between Chongxuanzun and Chongxuansheng, Wang Yiwu could not use any resources of the Grand Marshal's Mansion except for his identity as a disciple of the Military God that he could not erase.
Leave these words aside.
When the rumors evolved into a "consensus", signs of the collapse of the Jubao Chamber of Commerce appeared.
…
When a stone is thrown into the lake, the sound will pass quickly, but the ripples caused by it will tremble for a long time and far away...
The Daqi Palace is gorgeous and majestic, covering an extremely large area.
Among them, Shouning Palace is where the Queen of Daqi lives.
He Fu received the summons and hurriedly entered the palace without any delay. He is the biological brother of the current Queen He and the only relative of the Queen outside. The relationship between the siblings used to be very close.
Upon entering the palace, He Fu first bowed respectfully and paid homage. The whole process was so meticulous that even if the ceremony officer was standing by, it would be difficult to find fault.
The queen also sat on the phoenix chair and was silent.
One worships and one sits, one minister and one master.
A brother and a sister.
The elder sister is still in her glory, but the younger brother has become more prosperous.
After performing a set of rituals, the queen raised her hand and commanded: "Give me a seat."
Two palace maids carried out a seat and placed it on the lower side.
He Fu saluted and thanked him, and sat down.
The queen waved her hand again, and the maids bowed out one by one, without making a sound during the whole process.
Only a personal female officer was left, standing by the side to serve.
"I wonder why the Queen has summoned you?" He Fu asked.
At this time, the queen's voice gained a hint of warmth: "I haven't seen my brother for a long time. How is your family? Are you still filial to me?"
"There is no future, all I can do is be filial." He Fu's voice was a little muffled.
There was some resentment in these words.
With the current status of the He family, it is definitely not difficult for He to really make a career. There is no need for him to have any talent at all. The queen doesn't even need to do anything.
As long as she doesn't stop him and just acquiesces.
But the queen stopped him.
The attitude is very firm.
So much so that He Fu, a great uncle of the country, now has no job. In his early years, he had some ambitions and thought about making a big future, but after being dissuaded by the queen, his thoughts faded away. After all, there is no shortage of glory and splendor, and no worries about food and clothing, so I can get through it.
But his son He Zhen, who is thirty-six this year, has accomplished nothing.
He can get used to this and tolerate this. But after enduring it for so long, his son still did it.
This incident made him very resentful. In the past, he often went to the palace to see the queen every once in a while. He never stopped giving gifts during the New Year, and he was always concerned about his sister's preferences.
From then on, he came to the palace less and less, and even couldn't come unless summoned.
Compared with the aging He Fu, Queen He's face seemed to be in her thirties, with a well-groomed appearance and a graceful air.
Hearing Uncle Guo say this, he just smiled warmly and said: "As children, filial piety is the first priority."
This makes sense after all, and you can only understand it after becoming a parent.
In addition, my sister, with the dignity of a queen, advised me with gentle words. It's not easy for a younger brother to stay cold all the time.
He Fu softened his expression and said: "What my sister said is true. The prince's filial piety is known to the world. If Zhen'er can be half as good as his cousin, I will be satisfied."
"Zhen'er is also a good boy..." The queen paused and said, "As an aunt, I have wronged him."
He Fu said with emotion: "If my sister can say this, he will not be wronged."
The queen nodded, and said as if unintentionally: "Do you have a man named Cao Xing under your command?"
He Fu was shocked: "Yes...but what did he do?"
So what did Cao Xing do who deserved to be killed? It actually reached Tianting, and even the Queen knew about it!
My heart suddenly turned upside down, and I couldn't hide my panic.
"Not at all." The queen shook her head slightly, looking at her brother's face that already showed his age: "He seems to be working in the Jubao Chamber of Commerce?"
"……yes."
Cao Xing is the honorary elder of Jubao Chamber of Commerce. Regardless of his cultivation, talents, and skills, he has nothing to praise.
But the reason why he can become the honorary elder of Jubao Chamber of Commerce is because he represents He Fu and the uncle of Daqi.
"Let him retreat," said the queen.
Although he had a premonition in his heart, when he actually heard this, He Fu still subconsciously grasped the armrest to prevent himself from losing his composure.
In order to avoid suspicion, there were no officials or positions in the He family.
As a relative of the royal family, it is natural for them to have enough food and clothing. But being among the aristocratic circles of Linzi, how can it be enough to have enough food and clothing?
What can you do without spending money? Where can I save money?
The white flowers of silver flow like water.
It is no exaggeration to say that Cao Xing is responsible for at least more than half of the He family's expenses.
"Is that rumor true? Your Majesty is really interested in collecting treasures..."
The queen raised her hand to stop him: "How can you and I guess His Majesty's thoughts?"
He Fu was anxious: "But!"
"No buts." The queen's voice was still gentle, but it had an unquestionable dignity.
She is He Fu's sister, but she is also the empress of Daqi.
Seeing the disappointment on He Fu's face, Queen He softened her voice a little: "Wuhua is your nephew, you must think more about him. You can't take any risks."
"You...you...can't you help me say a word?"
The queen looked at him quietly and did not answer.
Silence is the most decisive answer.
"But, Queen." He Fu said with an ugly face: "This is a road that ordinary people have finally found. Going up and down in the houfu, people eat horse chews, what should I do? The entire Qi State will be unpretentious in the future, he Are my cousin and uncle going to have to live on a tight budget?"
"People continue to eat, and horses don't have to chew. If it's a tight situation, then it's better to be tight."
The queen said so.
