The setting sun shines horizontally, and the winding Qingxi River is like a ribbon hanging in the southwest corner of Zhuque City. It locks in the fading colors of autumn dusk, and uses the flowing water intertwined with the remaining light to continuously emerge. That vigorous vitality.
It's like this city has been bathed in fire.
In the old hospital, Murong Xing's frankness gave him the opportunity to have in-depth communication with Mu Qing.
It had been a long time since he had talked about his ideas that were neither great nor shocking in public, so when he finished speaking, he fell into a brief silence.
After a moment, he glanced at everyone, and finally stopped at Mu Qing, and said: "This is what I think. Only a stable rear can support me to open up southern Xinjiang, and if Suzaku City shows its interest in me, With your support, I believe that Baidi City will not make things difficult for you."
"I heard from eldest brother that you have already controlled the Banshan Gang?"
Murong Yun rarely spoke, and he looked at Murong Xing with a somewhat searching look.
The top level of Banshan Gang is far inferior to Hidden Valley. Even if Qinglong and others are not used, Murong Yin's black-robed law enforcement team will have enough power to clear out the senior members of Banshan Gang.
But the Banshan Gang still developed into the second largest gang in southern Xinjiang after Hidden Valley.
There are many factions within the Banshan Gang, and the interest networks emanating from various factions have already penetrated the entire southern Xinjiang, and they receive a lot of attention every day. This is completely opposite to Hidden Valley.
It is precisely because of this that whenever an external force wants to invade the Banshan Gang, it will soon be known to the forces in the entire southern Xinjiang. At this time, there is no need for the Banshan Gang to resist on their own. Those who have interests in it will The colluding forces will take the initiative to eliminate foreign troubles for them.
Hidden Valley sometimes helps out. After all, as Ten Thousand Flowers Valley becomes Hidden Valley’s line of pharmacists, the elixirs produced by Hidden Valley have already become the most stable part of Hidden Valley’s income.
Murong Yun knew that Murong Xing only started to set his sights on the Banshan Gang after the invasion of Ten Thousand Flowers Valley failed. So he couldn't figure out how the group of Tianshou brought by Murong Xing could control the Banshan Gang in such a short period of time.
This current situation even became an important reason why Murong Yin prevented him from disbanding Hidden Valley and establishing a sect.
Murong Xing looked at Murong Yun, as if he was thinking about whether he should answer Murong Yun's question. He already had a hunch that compared to Murong Yin, who only thought about maintaining his integrity, his younger brother after breaking through the barrier obviously had some differences. Same idea.
"Actually, we are also curious. The composition of the Banshan Gang is very complicated. It is not a force with a clear organizational hierarchy like Hidden Valley. You should have agreed to some conditions from those people."
Murong Xing turned his eyes and looked at Wang Yeqing who was speaking. After a moment, he nodded gently: "The most important thing of the Banshan Gang is to pick the elixirs from southern Xinjiang, and then simply classify them and send them to all parties. Mrs. Wang should I also discovered that this is only the most elementary stage. Those rare elixirs that are born in the world can be sold for ten gold or a hundred gold at most in their hands, but after a few hands, or refined into After taking the elixir, the price will directly increase ten times or a hundred times."
"Furthermore, they don't have the experience accumulated from generations of cultivating elixirs in the Ten Thousand Flowers Valley. They only know how to seize the blessings of heaven and earth. This method of fishing for nothing has developed to this day, and it has caused changes in the dense forests full of spiritual energy in southern Xinjiang that are difficult to recover. "
Huaifenghua frowned slightly and said, "But the total amount of elixirs issued by Mountain Moving Helper has not decreased significantly over the years."
Murong Xing nodded and said with a smile: "That's because Southern Xinjiang is still big enough. After they pick up all the elixirs in one area, they can find another place."
"But unfortunately, these places are always limited. Although they have been aware of this problem in the past two years, they no longer fish from the lake and try to minimize the damage to the growth environment of elixirs, but their openings have been opened wide enough, and the market needs them Provide enough elixirs so those places can never recover as quickly as they destroy when they harvest the elixirs.”
"Now, they can only go deeper into the dense forest, which is more dangerous and complex. This is also an important reason why the price of elixirs has continued to rise in recent years. But in a few years, not even a single herb can be found deep in the dense forest. , how fast the Mountain Moving Gang has accumulated wealth over the years, how fast it will collapse when the time comes."
"That
The forces that have become accustomed to it providing elixirs can become its protective umbrella over the years, and can also become the steel knife that falls on its head in the end. "
Everyone in the room was thinking carefully about Murong Xing's words, so that the atmosphere seemed a bit depressing.
After a while, Murong Yun, who was the first to ask Murong Xing questions, said with a hint of vigilance in his eyes: "So you found these people and promised to solve these hidden dangers for them?"
"But I'm curious. You can provide them with better channels so that the medicinal materials in their hands can be sold at higher prices, but can you also find any way for them to solve the problem of the shortage of elixirs in southern Xinjiang one day? ?”
Mu Qing had been listening patiently to the exchanges between several people. Until this moment, he seemed to have thought of something. He looked at Murong Xing with cold eyes and asked: "If you want to solve such a problem, you can't exhaust your efforts. You need to It’s the experience of transplanting and cultivating elixirs, are you still paying attention to Wanhua Valley?”
Murong Xing sat upright a little, frowned and glanced at Murong Yun. Facing the cold-faced Mu Qing and Huaifeng Huahuaicao Shi, his words became more sincere: "There is no shortage of people with long-term vision in the Banshan Gang. smart people, but they are still treading water all these years, hasn’t Wanhua Valley already responded?”
Huaifenghua narrowed her eyes slightly, looked at Murong Xing and said: "The Mountain Moving Gang has indeed contacted Wanhua Valley in the past two years, but we have rejected them every time. It seems that they have put their hope in you, an outsider. .”
Sitting aside, Huai Cao Shi, who seldom spoke to Murong Xing, couldn't help it anymore, and said with cold eyes: "In my eyes, the experience of cultivating elixirs and alchemy skills are accumulated and summarized by countless ancestors in Wanhua Valley. The fruitful results belong to the inheritance of Ten Thousand Flowers Valley."
Murong Xing waved his hands and said with a wry smile: "Since we have come to this point so quickly, I also want to have a serious talk with you in Wanhua Valley."
Murong Xing directly ignored the fact that Wanhua Valley still belonged to Hidden Valley, or he was openly breaking the relationship between Murong Yun and Huaifenghua.
"Due to the harsh requirements of Hidden Valley, Ten Thousand Flowers Valley has not regained its former vitality over the years. In addition to your small population, a very important reason is that you have not accumulated many resources."
While thinking about it, Murong Xing said slowly: "I don't ask you to use your experience in cultivating elixirs to sell them at a good price, but you can definitely train a group of specially trained people to join the Banshan Gang. As for the reward, it's completely You can let them replace it with a successful elixir. I believe they will welcome this kind of cooperation."
Huaifenghua frowned and said nothing.
Murong Xing refused to give up and continued: "I know Hidden Valley has been trying to steal the inheritance of Ten Thousand Flowers Valley all these years, but you, Master Huai Valley, persisted and only let them learn some abilities to cultivate elixirs. And this It’s a mutually beneficial and win-win thing for the Banshan Gang, the Ten Thousand Flower Valley, and even the Hidden Valley.”
When Chen Zhuozhi analyzed Murong Xing's current situation of the Banshan Gang, he frowned and fell into deep thought. Then he raised his head and asked, "You told my elder brother the same thing at the beginning, that's why he appeared in Wanshan Gang." Valley of Flowers?”
Murong Xing was stunned for a moment, then nodded and admitted: "It is indeed my idea to capture the Ten Thousand Flower Valley and then control the Banshan Gang through the Thousand Flower Valley, but reality has told me that this is impossible."
The eyes in the room swept across the faces of Huaifenghua and the others, and finally landed on Mu Qing's face.
Murong Xing frowned slightly when he saw Mu Qing, Huaifenghua and the others were silent: "Don't Wanhua Valley plan to leave Hidden Valley?"
Mu Qing said coldly: "You used your honesty to get the cooperation with the City Lord's Mansion, not with the Ten Thousand Flowers Valley."
Murong Xing didn't take it seriously and said with a smile: "I think that you who are sitting here now can be either the City Lord's Mansion or the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers. But after my failure, there is really no need to worry about this matter. It is time to worry now." It’s the Mountain Moving Gang that’s the right one.”
Mu Qing's eyes darkened slightly and he said: "This is what you promised to the Banshan Gang and has nothing to do with us. But if you still have some improper thoughts, then I advise you to stop in time."
"No way." Murong Xing sighed softly, looked at Mu Qing and said, "Your appearance has become the biggest surprise. Now I want to reach a long-term cooperation with you."
Mu Qing was noncommittal and said: "Since you agreed to the Banshan Gang to sell the medicinal materials in your hand at a good price for them, then
Do we need the drug dealers in the city to come forward? "
Murong Xing shook his head and said: "No, you may be wrong. On the contrary, it is precisely because this huge drug dealer guild in Suzaku City has monopolized a large number of channels that the Banshan Gang has lost its bargaining power."
Murong Xing glanced at the north and said leisurely: "The changes in Suzaku City have already spread to the entire southern Xinjiang, and if my guess is correct, their caravan has already gone north, trying to cross the medicine merchants' association in the city to establish a their channels.”
Mu Qing narrowed his eyes slightly, "Go directly north, to Baidi City in Zhongzhou, right?"
Murong Xing said: "It is indeed the line I signed. But if you are fighting for the Medicine Merchant Association as the city lord, then there is no need for it."
"Just as the Banshan Gang encountered dead ends after rapid development, these businessmen in the city who just sit and collect money are also facing serious problems."
Seeing Mu Qing frowning in confusion, Murong Xing explained: "Of course, these businessmen may not think that the loss in the turnover of injected medicinal materials is a problem. They know the principle of rare things becoming more valuable. But the reason why I am still like this Are you looking at them from the perspective of the City Lord’s Mansion?”
"City Lord's Mansion?"
"Yes, the City Lord's Mansion." Murong Xing narrowed his eyes slightly, with a cold expression on his face: "Except for Chen Zhuo and Mrs. Wang, those of you sitting here now have actually never really lived in this city. .So you probably don’t know that as the center of medicinal materials distribution in southern Xinjiang, the medicinal materials sold in the shops on the street are not much cheaper than elsewhere.”
Mu Qing looked deeply at Murong Xing. He suspected that he had seen it wrong, because at this moment, he even saw a trace of sadness in Murong Xing's eyes.
Mu Qing turned to look at Wang Yeqing, "Mrs. Wang, you have lived in both Jinguan City and Zhuque City. Is this the case?"
Wang Yeqing frowned lightly, but nodded under everyone's gaze: "Some rare elixirs are 10% or 20% cheaper than other places, but ordinary or low-spirited medicinal materials that are consumed in large quantities, The price difference is really small.”
Murong Xing looked at Mu Qing and said, "This is the credit of those businessmen."
Mu Qing remembered that not long ago, he was in front of those businessmen, sincerely hoping that they could make their due contribution to the stability of Suzaku City. Now recalling this, he couldn't help but feel a little bitter.
Maybe he seemed a little ignorant in Murong Xing's eyes at that time.
Wang Yeqing seemed to sense Mu Qing's thoughts and said seriously: "Businessmen are always a group of people who pursue profits. Three times the profits can make them change their stance, and ten times the profits can make them crazy about it. There are people like the inner city." It’s a lot of land, and they should do well in the near future.”
"But..." Wang Yeqing frowned slightly, "Murong Xing is indeed right. Ordinary people can't provide them with much wealth, so the medicinal materials they collect will rot in the warehouse, and they probably won't really sell them cheaply. give them."
Murong Xing nodded: "So, after the Bangshan Gang begins to cross the channels they control, they will never have the chance to let the medicinal materials rot in the warehouse."
"Even if the situation goes as you expected, will the people of Suzaku City be able to sell cheap medicinal materials?"
Mu Qing's eyes were deep, "I'm afraid those merchants still refuse to lower their prices."
Murong Xing did not hide his admiration for Mu Qing at this time, "As a city lord, if you can think this way, then the people will definitely be able to sell cheap medicinal materials."
Mu Qing had some guesses in his mind and asked: "In addition to letting Bishan help you open up more valuable channels, do you also plan to let them establish a directly affiliated pharmacy in Suzaku City?"
Murong Xing praised: "You are indeed very smart. When the pharmacy store directly affiliated to the Banshan Gang opens, those businessmen who are hoarding medicinal materials and trying to control the price of medicines will have to follow the Banshan Gang if they don't want to make the same mistake again and let the medicine rot in the warehouse. Help lower prices.”
Mu Qing subconsciously wanted to nod, but Wang Yeqing beside her asked: "This seems to be a mutually beneficial and win-win good thing. But as I said just now, businessmen are businessmen, how can you guarantee that the Mountain Moving Gang will not To become the same thing as the Pharmacy Association?"
The corners of Murong Xing's mouth turned up slightly, and he shook his head and said, "I really can't guarantee it. But together we can put a lock on the necks of the Mountain Moving Gang to make sure they are obedient."
Wang Yeqing looked at Murong Xing warily and said after a while: "You are a very dangerous person."
Wang Yeqing wouldn't have said this if he hadn't talked about the unavoidable dilemma of the Banshan Gang and the experience of cultivating elixirs in Wanhua Valley.
But obviously, some of the cooperation proposed by Murong Xing seemed to only involve a certain aspect, but when the cooperation deepened, other aspects had to be developed for this purpose.
Murong Xing, who was facing everyone at this moment, answered everyone's questions honestly, like a person without the slightest offensive power, or a person without resistance, but if you connect one thing he said, You will find that the inner cause and effect of things seems to be in his hands.
Mu Qing looked at him seriously and asked, "Is this the long-term cooperation you want?"
Murong Xing looked into Mu Qing's eyes. He could see the deep wariness in Mu Qing's eyes, but it was also this that made him determined to achieve cooperation with Mu Qing.
Mu Qing has used battle after battle to prove his strength and talent, proving that he will have a brilliant and bright future.
It is impossible for such a person to be bound to a city, but when he deals with matters related to this city, he does not have any perfunctory attitude. In Murong Xing's eyes, this is really a very noble quality of disregard.
So after a brief silence, he nodded solemnly and said, "There are very few selfless people in this world. I have always looked forward to cooperating with you."
Mu Qing frowned and said coldly: "If you think I am selfless, you are wrong. But I don't want to discuss this with you. Your eyes have fallen on the vast dense forests of southern Xinjiang where the Banshan Gang fell. These things It doesn’t sound far away, but it’s not the cooperation I need.”
Murong Xing nodded: "Since I said I would help you restore the stability of Suzaku City, I will naturally not forget it."
"In addition to what I mentioned before, contacting the outside world to block the blockade of Suzaku City and restoring trade routes to other states for Suzaku City, I will also provide a batch of medicinal materials for free. These medicinal materials are not rare and valuable, but in It’s very effective in treating trauma.”
Murong Xing paused slightly when he said this, "You may also have thought that this batch of medicine was provided by the Banshan Gang, and it was also preparation for them to open a directly affiliated pharmacy in Suzaku City. However, this would also allow the drug dealers in the city to have more A little bit of vigilance and letting them participate passively.”
Mu Qing looked at Murong Xing, "What about other than that? If it's just these, you want the City Lord's Mansion to be your rear for developing Southern Border in the future. Do you think it's possible?"
"Then if so, what if Southern Xinjiang will be managed by the City Lord's Mansion in the future?" Murong Xing looked at Mu Qing with a half-smile.
He said a word with an indifferent expression, but the atmosphere in the room instantly became weird.
Chen Zhuo was still depressed because of Wang Yeqing's evaluation of the businessman. After hearing these words, he took a deep breath and couldn't help but ask: "Then what do you want?"
Murong Xing frowned slightly and responded to everyone's puzzled looks: "I remember I said from the beginning that I want this land to be stable."
"That's it? No wealth or status?" Chen Zhuo sighed, "You are indeed a weirdo."
Murong Xing glanced at the silent Huai Cao Shi and sighed: "Maybe. But when I do these things, my wealth and status will inevitably increase, and I will not refuse these."
"If you really want to be more noble." Murong Xing hesitated for a moment, raised his eyes and looked at everyone and said, "I hope that the land under our feet can become the place with the best order in the troubled times."
Mu Qing looked at Murong Xing, as if he had returned to the breakfast stall in a trance. Murong Xing might still be observing him at that time, so many places always gave people a feeling of secrecy.
At that time, Murong Xing was talking almost boringly. Mu Qing could not remember it now, but in this trance, he felt that Murong Xing might have wanted to say this at that time.
At that time, he probably wouldn't believe it.
