Tianbo Chamber of Commerce.
One of the largest chambers of commerce in Dashun.
When it comes to shipping and water trade, there is no such thing. Its business covers major rivers and surrounding oceans. It is said to run from north to south, and everything is available.
Some people say that behind the Tianbo Chamber of Commerce, multiple aristocratic families hold shares in each other, while others say that the emperor in yellow robes takes half of the profits, and that the entire chamber of commerce is the money bag of the royal clan.
Which one is true and which one is false, Liang Qu doesn't know.
But he knew that the Huaiyin Prefecture's Tianbo Chamber of Commerce branch had sold a mutilated ancient book for a terrifying price of 1.3 million taels of silver in May.
And transactions like this happen almost every month.
Damn it, a book costs more than one million taels of silver, who is spending money on these things?
Liang Qu gritted his teeth in envy, with a calm expression on his face, and asked Fan Xing to make tea, then got up and went to the door to greet the guests.
Zhu Bingcan, who had a goatee, waved his hands repeatedly: "Master Liang is really polite. I have important things to attend to. It is inconvenient for me to stay longer. I will leave soon."
"Manager Zhu comes and goes in a hurry. I don't know why he came to visit?"
"To be honest with Mr. Liang, the branch building of the Tianbo Chamber of Commerce will be opened on the 18th of this month, and a Tianbo auction will be held at that time. I am here to send an invitation to Mr. Liang."
Zhu Bingcan said as he took out a gold-plated red post from his sleeve, held it up with both hands, and presented it respectfully.
Liang Qu took the goose down invitation and opened it. A piece of golden letter paper slipped down. He held it with his little finger and picked up the paper.
After rubbing it with my fingertips, I discovered that this was not paper at all, but a thin piece of gold!
The afternoon sun shone slantingly, and the golden leaves glowed with a bright light, almost blinding him, a country bumpkin.
Just this invitation is probably worth a lot of money!
Liang Qu took two steps back to avoid the sunlight.
In the middle of the gold paper, words, location, time, and the name of the inviter were engraved in a positive engraved manner. From the middle down, there was the seal of the Tianbo Chamber of Commerce.
“The Tianbo Chamber of Commerce only set up a branch in the center of Fuzhou, but the change of Huaiyin Prefecture to Pingyang Prefecture is due to the general trend, so the Chamber of Commerce naturally needs to prepare early.
This auction has been prepared for a long time and contains many treasures. We look forward to Mr. Liang’s visit. "
Zhu Bingcan bowed and bowed.
For the first auction, of course, local powerful people and dignitaries must be invited.
Although Liang Qu lives in the small town of Yixing, he has a good reputation.
A great nobleman, a disciple of Shanhu, an eighth-grade official of the Hebo Institute, and a capable general of Xu Yuelong's line. Every identity has its own name.
At the moment, his strength is slightly low, but he can expect to win in the future, and he is on the invitation list of Tianbo Chamber of Commerce.
"Excuse me, Manager Zhu."
Liang Qu nodded.
"It's my duty. Now that Mr. Liang has received the invitation, my mission has been completed. I still need to rush to the next location..."
"Then I won't keep Zhu in charge, and go slowly."
"Don't send it away."
Zhu Canrong bowed again, stepped back a dozen steps, and turned to leave.
auctions……
Liang Qu looked through the gold paper.
He was quite interested in the so-called auction. He didn't know what good things there would be in it. He had gained a lot of experience in the past.
I can't say there will be any surprises.
He just didn't know why, but when he heard about the auction, a series of plots appeared before his eyes: maliciously increasing prices, making threats, secretly stalking, killing people to seize treasures, and having to hide in Daze, eating sashimi, and growing secretly.
Obviously I have never participated in a similar gathering, but I can't help but have such a picture in my mind.
Strange, what was the first impression impressed on him?
It's not working anymore, my brain is very sleepy.
Liang Qu's eyelids were trembling as he hurriedly put away the invitation and went back to his room to sleep.
When I woke up again, not only did the sun not set, it actually rose higher.
"I slept all day and all night?"
Liang Qu was a little confused looking at the sun rising against time outside, and dived into the sea of consciousness to check the spiritual link.
Compared with yesterday, the comparison today is very obvious. The proportion of spiritual links has shrunk by one-sixth!
Golden gong fish really has the effect of strengthening the soul!
rare.
After breaking through the galloping horse, Liang Qu's spirit has already increased. With the growth of the golden gong fish this time, the remaining space is probably enough to contract with both spirits.
It's just that he thinks it's not cost-effective.
The share occupied by the spiritual link always remains the same. For example, when the ruler cannot move at first, it has always been the share occupied by ordinary beasts.
Even if you can't move now and have the strength of a galloping horse, the share of spiritual links will not change.
In other words, if it is small at the beginning, it will become smaller in the future. On the contrary, if it is large at the beginning, it will not become smaller in the future.
And excluding the factor of strength, one's own willingness to surrender also has a great influence. Yuantou's share is not very large because of its high willingness to surrender.
Evolving from an ordinary beast to a spirit requires not much water essence.
There is a risk of mental backlash from overly strong spirits. There is absolutely no need for Liang Qu to give up controlling numbers in order to control water beasts of ordinary strength. That is not cost-effective.
Reduce future possibilities for nothing.
…
"Master Liang, you have achieved a lot today. I count your twelve small contributions."
Li Shoufu added ink with his brush and made a note on Liang Qu's file.
"What should I exchange for today? Or three cockscomb berries?"
"No, I'll exchange it for a finless porpoise token. My accumulated small merits will reach 100, right?"
"Wait a minute, let me take a look." Li Shoufu counted them over and gave a thumbs up, "One hundred and ninety-six small merits, which is more than enough. Mr. Liang is the fastest person in our river bank to accumulate small merits!"
Everyone around heard the sound and looked sideways and whispered.
Three months, almost two hundred small achievements?
No, excluding the exchange ones, it’s more than two hundred!
Take another look at the twelve heads at Liang Qu’s feet.
Could it be by killing spirits and monsters?
how did you do that?
For ordinary warriors, if they want to earn a small amount of merit, it is extremely uneconomical to rely exclusively on killing monsters in rivers.
It's hard to find and kill, and it's a waste of time. You can only see one occasionally and deal with it easily.
He only captures the spirits and kills them, fearing that they will starve to death.
But someone not only did it, but did it much faster than anyone else!
Liang Qu was accustomed to the awe-inspiring looks of everyone, and pointed at the small merit book.
"One hundred and ninety-six, then ten more Qi-Building Pills and two Water Source Fruits."
The Qi-Returning Pill is usually used by warriors below the fourth level. Liang Qu was promoted to the Galloping Horse Martial Arts Master. The power of the Qi-Returning Pill was somewhat limited, so he had to start replacing the Qi-Building Pill.
The price is also higher.
As for the water source fruit, I heard that it is an upgraded version of the cockscomb fruit. It costs 20 hours a piece. I don’t know how effective it will be. I’ll give it a try first.
Li Shoufu knew Liang Qu's ability, so he came to Chang'an and led him to collect the resources, but something happened on the way.
"By the way, I forgot to tell Mr. Liang that our Hebo Office will be moved to the county tomorrow and we will no longer be working on the building or boat."
"I saw the notice on the mission board. It's closer to my home."
A few days ago, the Tianbo Chamber of Commerce came over to invite Liang Qu. It was because the sub-rudder was established. Calculating the days, the Hebo Station should be similar.
"That's a good thing."
Li Shoufu came to the token room and checked his qualifications. The manager asked Liang Qu to choose a token from the ordinary finless porpoise column.
Every finless porpoise keepsake is numbered. The round-headed wife is...
"Found it, three seven four."
"Master Liang, don't you choose a male? It's all a small effort. The male is bigger and has more help."
"No need, this one is fine."
Yuan Tou helped him find a group of wild finless porpoises last time, and unexpectedly obtained a tiger-eating human gnat, a Buddha sculpture, and a shark's tears.
The value of any of the three items is much greater than a hundred small works, so Liang Qu will definitely fulfill its wish.
Without much persuasion, Li Shoufu went to the elixir pharmacy and found someone in Baozhifang to exchange for Qi-tonifying elixirs and Shuiyuanguo.
After receiving the reward, Liang Qu finally met Yuantou's wife.
