"Back off!" The evil young man wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by the voice. He could only glare at Zhou Yang fiercely, cover his chest and walk away, and the two henchmen followed closely. .
"Let's go!" Zhou Yang asked the You brothers to help the man who fell to the ground and waved him into the beast cart.
In fact, he was also very worried. He could handle the fake elixir master himself, but he couldn't defeat the golden elixir master, and he couldn't even catch a single move.
If that person deliberately killed them, it would only take a moment, so he was also very confused and didn't understand why the master would let them go so easily.
But no matter what the reason, he finally saved his life.
"Guest, sir, where are you going?" The owner of the car turned from timidity to shock. This group of people severely injured the young master of the Cao family. However, the master of the golden elixir of the Cao family didn't bother them. It's really strange. Could it be? Their status is higher than that of the Cao family on Lihe Island?
"Uncle, he is just a late-stage cultivator of Tianyuan, what are you afraid of?" In a luxurious mansion, the evil young man said in dissatisfaction.
"Presumptuous! What do you know? Let them go their own way. You can't afford to offend this group of people!" A white-haired old man scolded.
"On Lihe Island, are there people that our Cao family can't afford to offend?" The young man's face was full of disbelief.
"Do you recognize this object?" The old man turned over his hand and showed a jade sign.
"This is..." The young man stared at the jade plaque, his eyes condensed.
"It's your father's VIP jade token. It can sense the aura of the same kind of jade token." The old man nodded.
"You mean, they are also Bo family members?" the young man said in surprise.
"This is not necessarily true, but it must be someone with a close relationship. Think about it, as your father is a master of the golden elixir, he finally obtained a VIP jade medal from the Bo family. It is precisely because of this jade medal, Only then did we have our current foundation. The Bo family’s jade tablet is so precious, how can that person’s identity be simple?” the old man explained in detail.
"We really can't afford to offend people like this. But, their cultivation is not high, and this is not Suiling City!" Obviously, the young man was still unwilling to let it go.
"Confused! Although their cultivation level is low, the person who can possess such a jade medal must have a high status. Maybe he is the relative of a big shot in the Bo family, or maybe." The old man scolded again.
"I understand." The young man was a little downcast.
Zhou Yang didn't know this, let alone that it was the Bo family's VIP jade token that saved his life.
On top of the beast cart.
"In this way, I came to Lihe Island." Hao Xuan'er lowered his head and said.
"Oh, why are you doing this!" Zhou Yang sighed.
It turned out that Hao Xuan'er had suffered a lot in the more than two years since Anping parted ways.
A weak woman who lost her mother when she was young, she was brought up by her father. However, a war broke out in Anping River, and my father was seriously injured in the war, and he was about to let go.
If Hao Daren leaves, she will have no relatives in the world.
But what could she do in the situation at that time? In order to save my father, I had to follow the man in purple, exchange for some spiritual stones, and find a good doctor. Maybe my father would not die.
At that time, Zhou Yang thought she was a flirtatious, unfeeling person, which made her so ashamed that she left in anger without looking back.
Coupled with the recent loss of his father, Hao Xuan'er was temporarily discouraged and wanted to join Buddhism, stay away from the world, and spend his whole life with the ancient scrolls of green lanterns.
However, there was no Buddhist temple or temple in Anping City, so she could only find another place.
Later, she heard that there was a Buddhist temple in Dingbei City, but after traveling to Dingbei, she learned that it was only found in Baizong Mountain, and that the road was far away and full of monsters. She, a weak woman with only Kaiyuan cultivation, had to leave no matter what. Not there.
At that time, she had already spent all her spiritual stones in order to teleport, and she was as poor and alone as a beggar on the street.
Unable to afford a hotel room and often hungry, she lost hope and collapsed completely, so she cut her wrists and waited for the blood to bleed out before she died.
But she didn't die. She was saved by someone from Dashun Trading Company.
What happened next was almost the same as Myolie’s, or even worse than Myolie’s.
Myolie was still very young when she was sold, and has been used as a maid. But Hao Xuan'er was already eighteen or nineteen years old at the time, and her appearance was not bad, so she naturally had to be sold at a high price, and the highest bidder was the brothel.
After she recovered from her injuries, she learned that she had been sold to a brothel, so she chose to commit suicide again, but was saved again.
The brothel's madam was so angry that she spent a large sum of spiritual stones to buy such a pervert. Why don't you just lose money!
But no matter what method the madam used, Hao Xuan'er would rather die than obey.
At that time, there happened to be a businessman from Lihe Island who invited people to drink wine. After learning about this, he made an agreement with the old bustard and wanted to buy Hao Xuan'er.
The madam was worried, so naturally she was happy to transfer her, so she sold her to the merchant for a big price.
The merchant was the one lying in the car. His surname was Shang and his given name was Quande.
Although Shang Quande was also lecherous, he was kind to Hao Xuan'er and did not force her. Instead, he took good care of her and asked her for help. He did not act like a master at all. This made Hao Xuan'er very happy and moved.
After following Shang Quande for a while, she gradually recovered, so she helped Shang Quande take care of his business. The previous shop was Shang Quande's property.
As time goes by, Hao Xuan'er and Shang Quande gradually develop feelings.
Shang Quande didn't have a Taoist partner yet, so they came together naturally with the love of a husband and the love of a concubine.
After becoming a Taoist couple, the young couple took care of business together, and their life was prosperous and smooth until a month ago.
Shang Quande traveled all over the country and saw that the market price of materials increased. During this period, he purchased a large amount of seafood and went to other cities to exchange for training materials. However, he encountered bandits and robbed him, and finally escaped back.
In order to hoard materials, he borrowed a loan shark from Cao's store and prepared to do something big.
In fact, his vision is still very accurate. If that batch of goods is successfully exchanged, he will definitely make a lot of money.
But in the end, it was all in vain. Not only was all the materials gone, but he also owed a large sum of spiritual stones. He had to give the shop to the Cao family, but the Cao family said that the shop was not enough and they had to give Hao Xuan'er to them as well.
How could Shang Quande agree?
Today, the second son of the Cao family came to the store in person to ask for someone. Shang Quande only agreed to give it to the store and refused to hand over Hao Xuan'er to death, so he was severely injured by two of the second son's followers.
In order to protect Hao Xuan'er, he was kicked out by the Second Young Master Cao, and hit the beast cart that Zhou Yang was riding on, which led to the subsequent series of events.
Shang Quande took several Qi-Building Pills and other elixirs, and his injuries stabilized, and he would recover after just resting for a while.
Hao Xuan'er didn't expect to meet Zhou Yang here, let alone Zhou Yang's cultivation to such an extent, and his status seemed to be unusual.
She had resented Zhou Yang before, hating him for looking down on her and even blaming him for her unfortunate experiences. She also vowed to take revenge on Zhou Yang one day.
But what I said last time, Zhou Yang saved her and buried her father for her, so besides hatred, she was still a little grateful. Therefore, her emotions towards Zhou Yang were very complicated, and she couldn't tell whether she was more resentful or grateful. many.
But when she was at her most depressed and helpless, Zhou Yang, who she hated and was grateful for, came to save her. Is this God's will? In other words, Zhou Yang is not her enemy, but a noble person!
Counting this time, he had saved her twice. If she had any hatred again, it would be too cold-blooded.
"What are your plans next?" Zhou Yang asked.
"Oh, what can we do? There is no land, no room, no place to stay!" Hao Xuan'er sighed quietly.
"Xuan'er, it's okay, we will make a comeback and let you live a good life!" Shang Quande said with determination.
"Well, what Brother Quan De said is true. People must have hope, otherwise they will lose their fighting spirit and life will be meaningless." Zhou Yang nodded.
"Exactly, get up wherever you fall. In business, you have to make losses and profits. Next, we plan to go to the Great Holy Island and resume our old business." Shang Quande agreed with Zhou Yang's point of view
"Great Holy Island, the territory of True Lord Xiaoyao?" Zhou Yang knew about this island.
"Yes. No matter whose territory it is, merchants are welcome. Only with merchants can there be tax revenue and the island can be prosperous. The material business on the Great Holy Island itself is not as good as that on Lihe Island, so merchants are more welcome to settle there."
Shang Quande has been in business for many years and has traveled to countless places, especially the nine main islands in Kuohai, and he is very familiar with them all.
"To be honest, brother Quan De, I am also a businessman." Zhou Yang said with a smile.
"Oh? Brother Zhou is young. Not only is he good at cultivation, but he also has time to do business?" Shang Quande was quite surprised.
"Not only is he a businessman, but he is also bigger than you!" Xi Danjin looked at Zhou Yang with a smile on his face.
"Really, Brother Zhou is doing business in Dingbei?"
"No, my main business is in Jiemeng City, and I also have some in Sui Ling."
"Brother Zhou actually has business in Suiling City. It's amazing! I also know about Jiemeng. I have been there once. The circulation of materials there is second only to Suiling City. I wonder what your name is?" Shang Quande is worthy of being a traveler. The merchants have indeed traveled to many places.
"Wangtian Pavilion, although it opened not long ago, the business is still good. How about it, are you interested in cooperating?" Zhou Yang extended an olive branch.
"Cooperate? Brother Zhou, I have nothing now, so what qualifications do I have to cooperate with you!" Shang Quande shook his head.
"Haha, how about using your brains and business experience to invest in the company and me using the materials to invest in it?" Zhou Yang said with a smile.
"What a businessman!" Xi Danjin pouted.
In fact, she also understood that Zhou Yang was helping Shang Quande and his wife, so in order to prevent them from feeling indebted, she deliberately said this.
"Brother Zhou, you have been very kind to me, and now you want to help me. This, this makes me feel ashamed!"
