This Longting was only about twenty years old, but he was already a heaven-level being. He was in high spirits, and he had the status of a royal family member. Naturally, he could become a general as soon as he came to the Royal Forest Army.
He had not accompanied him on the expedition before, and it seemed that he had no military merit to support him. He became the target of those civil servants and was unable to reach the position of leader of the leading guard.
Although the number of the leading guards is not large, the leader is the leader after all, and has more opportunities to achieve results, which is naturally better than hanging around in the imperial guard.
But now the wind is blowing that virtue is not worthy of his place. He has no achievements and becomes very embarrassed.
Long Ju wanted him to have a good relationship with Zhou Xiaozhou, so that when there was a chance, he could take advantage of the situation and sit over.
These important key positions were originally customized for members of the royal family. Zhou Xiaozhou, an outsider, was already the second in command, and was not considered in Fuzheng at all. Even if Long Yi agrees, the royal family may not agree.
Except now, the middle child is the biggest.
"Nice to meet General Long."
"Nice to meet you..."
This Long Ting is wearing the bright armor of the Royal Forest Army. He is handsome and unrestrained. He is not only a cultivation genius but also a member of the royal family. He has a sense of arrogance. He doesn’t like Zhou Xiaozhou very much. Regardless of his status or cultivation, he is not up to his level. .
Even his appearance is too different from him...
Even if the royal family has relatively abundant resources, there are many mouths waiting to be fed. Being able to push him to the heaven level is already a great deal of care for him. It is impossible to keep him forever, so he has to come out and do something, which can be regarded as a kind of experience.
Too many resources are consumed on the way to cultivation, and after reaching the heaven level, there are even more holes like a sea. It is impossible for the Wusheng royal family to concentrate resources on one person.
Although he wanted to continue practicing with peace of mind, he had to come out and face these common people.
It was a bit reluctant to condescend to deal with a small person.
Fortunately, Zhou Xiaozhou saw that he was lukewarm and had no interest in warming his face. He just smiled lightly and said, "I've been busy for a few days and I want to go home. What are you two doing?" Something?"
"fine."
Long Ju smiled and said, "Long Ting is at leisure, walking around with Mr. Zhou to relax his mind. He has been a little bored recently.
You are of the same age, so you can definitely get along. "
He pushed Long Ting hard, and Long Ting could only say: "This general also wants to go out for a walk, let's come together."
Zhou Xiaozhou felt helpless after such a follow-up, so he had no choice but to leave the palace and go to the Zuofu Mansion. He had nothing to say and asked casually: "What are General Long's usual hobbies?"
"Practice."
Hobby is practice.
If cultivation is a hobby, you won't have time to do other things. Being so focused is probably one of the reasons why your cultivation level improves so quickly.
But it is not a good thing to just practice behind closed doors, with only empty cultivation and no actual combat experience.
"Don't you have other hobbies? Such as alchemy, weapon refining, formations, talismans..."
"not interested."
You can buy whatever you need. It is indeed a waste of time to delve into too advanced things.
Zhou Xiaozhou learned weapon refining and formation formations at the same time. He was already so busy that he felt like he didn't have enough time in any aspect.
"It's a good thing to concentrate."
"You know a lot of things?"
"I understand a little bit..."
Zuo's Mansion is not too far from the entrance of the palace. After chatting, they came to the corner of a street and looked up to see Qiao Yan and Zuo Xi'er laughing and joking in front of the door.
After not coming back for a few days, it seemed that there had been a lot of changes. Qiao Yan and Zuo Xier enthusiastically decorated the new Zuo Mansion. They even pruned some trees, which really gave it a completely new look.
"Husband, do you see anything else that doesn't please your eyes?"
Qiao Yan excitedly grabbed Zhou Xiaozhou and kept changing positions, looking at the current Zuofu from all angles.
Isn’t it almost the same?
Zuo Xi'er couldn't keep up with their steps, so he stopped and looked at the extraordinary and handsome Long Ting. He couldn't help but be fascinated by it.
What a handsome man!
Isn't this the Prince Charming she thinks about day and night?
Her blush flew up to her pink cheeks, and she said with a smile: "What is this...general's name?"
Long Ting turned his head to look at her and asked, "Who are you?"
When Zhou Xiaozhou returned, the two people were already chatting animatedly, which was quite surprising.
People who have been cultivating behind closed doors may not be very fond of other men, but it is different for young and beautiful beauties. They enjoy the admiration of beauties. Although Long Ting is a child of the royal family, he doesn't have much contact with women because he is devoted to cultivation. Suddenly he met a beautiful woman who admired him and talked endlessly...
This can also lead to hooking up... and finding marriage?
Zuo Xi'er wanted to marry into a rich family, and when a royal child appeared, he was handsome and innocent, which naturally made her overjoyed and very attracted to him.
This is the kind of thing where a man chases a woman across a mountain, and a woman chases a man across a veil. Long Ting is such a simple person, it seems like a match made in heaven...
Zhou Xiaozhou didn't want to be troublesome. He happened to get rid of Longting, found an excuse, and left.
This Zuo Mansion does not belong to him. He doesn't have much time to worry about a house that is not his own. He can just do whatever Qiao Yan does.
Although this was his third visit to the Royal City, he had not actually gone shopping in the Royal City at all.
Now that it has settled down, Wusheng King City has regained its prosperity and is indeed higher-end than other counties and cities.
To be a casual servant in Wangcheng, the starting salary is three to four taels of silver, which is much better than the starting salary of a few hundred coins in Qingshi County.
Wanbao Pavilion is not far from here. When I saw it again, I subconsciously walked in.
When I came back last time, I was just a little guy driving a carriage, and I was almost left as a boy. If I were just a clerk here, my fate might not have been arranged like this. In a few years, I would at most be the little boss among the clerks.
I don't know if the female shopkeeper is still there, but he would like to show off his current success in front of her.
When you succeed, you have nowhere to show off, just like walking in brocade clothes at night, it feels like a loneliness with no one to share it with.
Zhou Xiaozhou was only in his twenties, and when he was young and frivolous, his life turned upside down like a salty fish. It was the time when he wanted to be in the limelight.
Moreover, he wanted to take a good look at whether the Wanbao Pavilion had the elixirs he needed, such as Earth-level Niu Li Dan, Hu Li Dan, and elixirs for cultivating spiritual power.
Wanbao Pavilion is indeed worthy of the name of Wanbao. As long as it is related to cultivation, it has everything. It is also the weather vane of Wu Shengguo and controls the pricing power.
For example, if Wanbao Pavilion sets the price for Feijian, the transaction price in Jianghu will be below Wanbao Pavilion's price, rather than being speculated to the sky. It does have the effect of stabilizing prices. Flying swords are actually considered magic weapons. The starting price of ordinary magic weapons is 99,000 yuan, and the flying sword has a maximum price of 66,000 yuan. This is a good thing for people in the world.
At the price of 66,000, Wanbao Pavilion itself couldn't actually sell much, and people with some connections all made deals at this price.
Moreover, there is a market not far away by the city wall, which focuses on the prices of Wanbao Pavilion. If similar items are slightly lower, they will naturally sell better.
Wanbao Pavilion is crowded with people every day, and there are more people watching than buying.
It is also difficult to do business, unless it is an exclusive product that is not available elsewhere.
