Yi Huo looked at his scabbard, couldn't put it down, and was very happy.
At this time, the craftsman took out another sword box and said it was a gift for Yi Huo.
Yi Huo was surprised to find that the sword box was made of a single piece of crystal. Put the sword in it and it would become crystal clear, not only looking luxurious but also mysterious.
Yi Huo looked excited and said gratefully: "This... this is too precious. I would never dare to ask for it."
The craftsmen all laughed: "It doesn't matter, it's just one or two pieces of glass."
Yi Huo held the sword box and thought: Do people in Xianyang call crystal glass? Such crystal clear crystal is a priceless treasure.
But Yi Huo didn't know that Shangjun Courtyard could make as many of these things as they wanted, and the craftsmen would certainly not be interested in them.
Yong Chi said from the side: "Master, with this sword box and scabbard, you can sell this sword at a high price."
Yi Huo nodded: "Yes, yes."
The craftsman asked curiously: "You want to sell this sword?"
Yi Huo nodded, and said helplessly: "Pink is given to beauties, and swords are given to heroes. This sword is in vain with me, so why not give it to someone who is destined to do so."
Yi Huo has already tried it. He is not a real hero and cannot hear the sound of dragons roaring and tigers roaring. So even if you have this sword, you can't make any achievements. In this case... it's better to sell it to others.
If you can't be a hero in this life, just be a rich man.
Yi Huo thanked the craftsmen, wrapped the sword box with a piece of cloth, and then walked out of Shang Jun's courtyard with Yong Chi.
When they were about to reach the door, a craftsman caught up with them and said with a smile: "You two, please stay, I have invited you to banish the immortal."
Yi Huo and Yong Chi were both a little strange. Didn't they just see the Exalted Immortal? Why are you invited again?
However, the two of them didn't ask any questions and followed the craftsman to meet Li Shui.
Li Shui smiled and asked, "I heard that you want to sell this sword?"
Yi Huo responded: "Yes, the villain is coming to Xianyang this time. One is to spread the news. The other is to sell this sword."
Li Shui smiled and asked, "Who are you going to sell to?"
Yi Huo laughed dryly and said: "I haven't decided who to sell it to yet. But... there are powerful people and powerful people on the left and right."
Li Shui nodded.
He is more interested in making money from the rich and powerful.
Although this sword is fake. But... if one is willing to fight and the other is willing to suffer, there seems to be no problem.
Li Shui said to Yi Huo: "Although your sword is said to be spiritual, no one among the powerful people in Xianyang City knows about it. As a result, I'm afraid you won't be able to sell it for a good price."
Yi Huo nodded in agreement, and then showed a worried look.
Li Shui smiled and said, "Would you like me to give you some advice?"
Yihuo nodded repeatedly.
Li Shui said: "Why don't you let your follower, Yong Chi, steal your sword, and then you go to the government to file a complaint. If so, wouldn't there be a big fuss?"
Yong Chi was immediately frightened to the point of peeing, and said in a tearful tone: "Master Banished Immortal, a villain would never dare to steal anything."
Li Shui coughed dryly and said, "It's just a show. After the sword is sold, I will naturally redeem it for you."
Yong Chi looked doubtful.
Li Shui glared: "What? Don't you believe what I say?"
Yong Chi said with a grimace: "Believe it, the villain naturally believes it."
Yi Huo scratched his head and said in confusion: "Then what should the villain do? Hide the sword immediately and then sue Yong Chi?"
Li Shui waved his hand: "You two are just ordinary people from out of town. If you go to complain now, the movement is not big enough. How about...you lied about selling this sword to General Li Xin..."
Yi Huo listened nervously. Yong Chi listened with fear on his face.
After Li Shui finished speaking, even Yi Huo was a little discouraged.
He laughed dryly and said to Li Shui: "Master Banished Immortal, this... General Li Xin may not have the mind to meddle in our business. Otherwise, I won't sell this sword."
Li Shui waved his hand: "Sell, you must sell. I am the most enthusiastic. Since you have met me, I will help you to the end."
Immediately, I agreed.
His original plan was to take the sword and sell it to a wealthy businessman in Xianyang City to make a small sum of money.
How come the idea of banishing an immortal involves General Li Xin? And you want to alarm the senior officials in the DPRK?
Those people have extremely high status and are people that I can't afford to offend in my life. What if something goes wrong while selling the sword?
Yi Huo no longer dared to think about it any more.
Li Shui insisted on letting him sell the sword, and he took care of it and helped him work out all the steps for selling the sword.
Yi Huo could only be like a puppet on strings, at the mercy of Li Shui.
So, Yihuo returned to his small courtyard anxiously.
Before the sword was sold, he could not leave Shangjun Courtyard.
And Yong Chi returned to the small courtyard in despair. He felt that after this lawsuit, he would probably go straight to the execution ground.
Yi Huo looked at the pale Yong Chi and comforted him and said, "Don't be afraid. Everyone knows that the banished immortal is a god. There is nothing wrong in listening to his words. He will not harm you."
Yong Chi nodded, and in line with the principle of coming back and not reciprocating, he also comforted Yi Huo and said: "Master, don't worry, the banished immortal has great magical powers, and the sword selling will definitely go smoothly."
Afterwards, Yi Huo and Yong Chi both sighed and looked at each other speechlessly.
…………
An hour later, Li Xin was invited to Shangjun Courtyard.
Originally Li Xin refused to come, but Li Shui told people that a new wine had just been brewed, so he asked Li Xin to come and taste it.
Li Xin arrived excitedly and was stunned when he saw Li Shui's new wine.
For the wine was red, like human blood.
Li Xin looked at Li Shui in surprise: "Brother Huai, you are too cruel. You actually use human blood to make wine?"
Li Shui looked at Li Xin helplessly: "This is not human blood, this is wine. Have you seen the grapes before? They were fruits brought from the Western Regions a while ago."
Li Xin hummed: "Grapes are indeed good. I like eating them very much."
Li Shui handed the wine glass to Li Xin: "This is wine made from grapes. Try it."
The wine glass is made of glass. When the wine is in the glass and is illuminated by the sun, it has a different kind of beauty.
Li Xin was wary of this weird wine, so he took a cautious sip.
He smacked his mouth, closed his eyes and tasted it for a while, then nodded: "I have to say, this wine has a different taste. It's different from the wine I drank in the past. It's very good."
Li Shui grinned: "Brother Li is really good at drinking."
Wine is just an introduction.
After using wine to trick Li Xin, it’s time to get down to business.
Li Shui said to Li Xin who was tasting wine: "Brother Li, I have a small favor and I want you to do it. I wonder if you are willing."
Li Xin didn't even raise his head and said casually: "What are you busy with? Just say it."
Li Shui coughed dryly and said, "That's what happened. I hope you can help me sue someone."
Li Xin immediately raised his head and looked at Li Shui with confusion.
After Li Xin finished listening to Li Shui's words, he coughed dryly and said, "Brother Huai, are you full? Or is your life too boring?"
Li Shui said with a smile: "Brother Li, don't worry, I'm definitely not that boring. On the surface, I want to sell swords, but actually I have a deeper purpose."
Li Shui explained in a low voice.
Li Xin's eyes widened and he gave Li Shui a thumbs up.
The next day, Zhao Teng was reading official documents when suddenly a clerk hurried in and said to Zhao Teng: "Sir, someone has made a complaint."
Zhao Teng frowned and said, "If someone files a complaint, do you need to report it to me? You can just wait and see."
Zhao Teng was, after all, an important minister in the court. He was the one who made major decisions in the Internal Affairs Bureau. If he had to deal with trivial complaints, it would really be too much to deal with.
However, the clerk said: "Sir, the person who complained is extraordinary and we cannot deal with it. He is General Li Xin."
Zhao Teng was slightly startled: "Li Xin? Who is he going to sue?"
With Li Xin's ability and status, who would dare to bully him?
Could this be to cause trouble?
When Zhao Teng thought of Li Xin, he thought of Huaiguzi, and when he thought of Huaiguzi, he thought of his close friends, and he couldn't help but feel a headache.
He sighed, stood up and said, "That's all, let's go take a look."
Later, Zhao Teng met Li Xin.
When Li Xin saw Zhao Teng, he immediately said: "I want to sue Yihuo."
Zhao Teng looked at the people around Li Xin. The man stood there tremblingly, looking scared.
Zhao Teng bowed his hand to Li Xin and said with a dry smile: "General Li, is this person next to you Yi Huo?"
Li Xin hummed.
Zhao Teng asked again: "Why did the general sue him?"
Li Xin said: "This general hopes that the internal historian can hear the case openly, so that the officials will not protect each other and the judgment will be unfair."
Zhao Teng: "..."
Is this person sick? Isn't it beneficial to you for officials to protect each other? Are you afraid that you will sue or is that the case?
Faced with Li Xin's persistent plea, Zhao Teng sighed: "That's all, just listen to General Li."
Afterwards, several people arrived at the main hall.
At this time, the door opened, and many people were already watching outside. Faintly, you can even hear some people shouting: General Li is suing the merchants, General Li is suing the merchants...
What kind of person is General Li? It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the God of War of Great Qin.
Why did the God of War sue the merchant?
This short sentence immediately aroused the curiosity of Xianyang people, and many people gathered at the door, wanting to take a look.
Zhao Teng was upset and wanted to close the door, but judging from Li Xin's intention, he seemed to like people to watch.
Since the person involved doesn't feel embarrassed, let him be.
Zhao Teng asked a little tiredly: "General Li, why do you want to sue Yihuo?"
Li Xin pointed at Yihuo and said indignantly: "This man is a profiteer. He doesn't keep his word."
Yihuo suddenly made a plop and sat down on the ground, as if he was too frightened to stand up.
He cried and said: "The villain is not a merchant, let alone a profiteer."
Zhao Teng rubbed his temples and said to Yi Huo: "What is going on? Tell me exactly."
Yi Huo sat on the ground and said tremblingly: "The villain has a sword, which is a magic weapon that Wu Qi used during his lifetime. There is a special thing about this sword, that is, in the middle of the night, you can hear its sound. The sound of tigers roaring and dragons roaring came out.”
"Of course, only true heroes can hear this voice."
"I want to come, little man. Xianyang is the center of the world, and all the heroes are gathered here, so I brought my sword to Xianyang to sell it."
"The villain has found out that General Li Xin is the first-class hero in the world. This sword should belong to General Li, so the villain went to the general's mansion first."
Li Xin was very satisfied and kept nodding.
Zhao Teng was a little helpless, Yi Huo was like this, why didn't he forget to flatter him?
Yi Huo added: "After the villain arrived at the general's residence, he mentioned the sword to General Li. The general was very interested and said on the spot that he wanted to see the sword. But then the villain discovered that the sword was missing. Flying."
Li Xin scolded from the side: "What's missing? It's obvious that you used a fictitious sword to deceive this general."
Yi Huo said with a sad face: "That sword is really lost."
Zhao Teng asked Yi Huo: "You said you have this sword, can anyone prove it?"
Yi Huo said: "My fellow villagers in Sishui Pavilion can all prove it."
Zhao Teng was slightly startled: "But the Sishui Pavilion in Pei County?"
Yihuo's eyes lit up: "Yes. Not long ago, I showed it at the Sishui Pavilion, and many people heard the sound of tigers roaring and dragons roaring."
Zhao Teng chuckled: "It seems that our Great Qin is full of talented people. There are so many heroes."
Yi Huo laughed dryly and said, "The villain doesn't know about this."
Zhao Teng quietly took out a piece of paper and wrote on it: "Pei County is a place of chaos and must be guarded against."
Zhao Teng plans to find time to report to His Majesty.
Not long ago, a fortune teller once said that there is the Qi of the Emperor in the southeast.
And Pei County happens to be in this area.
Now combined with the recent testimonies, Pei County is almost full of heroes, so we need to be more careful.
Zhao Teng stuffed the paper into his arms and said to Yi Huo: "Pei County is too far away from here. Has anyone in Xianyang City seen this sword?"
Yi Huo said: "Yong Chi has seen the villain's entourage."
Zhao Teng asked: "Where is Yong Chi?"
Yi Huo was stunned and said, "It seems... missing."
Zhao Teng said calmly: "Did it disappear with your sword?"
Yi Huo let out a sigh and said, "It seems so."
Zhao Teng said to the servant beside him: "This Yong Chi is probably the one who stole the sword. Search the whole city for him."
The servant responded and hurried away.
Yi Huo slapped his forehead suddenly and said, "Sir, you are so wise. Why didn't you think of this?"
Zhao Teng looked at Yi Huo with sympathy: He is so stupid, he actually comes to Xianyang City to sell swords? Little do you know that there are a lot of scammers here. You are lucky to have met me. If you had met someone from Shangjun Courtyard, you would have been deceived and lost all your clothes.
Zhao Teng thought of this and casually looked up at the door, only to see Li Shui standing at the front.
While watching the excitement, Li Shui ate wheat flowers with relish and grinned friendly at Zhao Teng.
Zhao Teng's heart suddenly sank.
Combining previous experiences, he felt... that his Internal Affairs Bureau seemed to be used as a money-making tool by Li Shui again.
This shameless person! I will impeach him sooner or later!
