Chapter 366
Yan Su frowned and thought for a moment, then said to the middle-aged man:
"You go and stabilize him first, I'll be back in a moment."
The middle-aged man nodded, then turned around and walked out of the room, closing the door.
Yan Su put the account book in his hand on the shelf behind him, then reached out to hold a rockery ornament on the bookshelf, and rotated it ninety degrees clockwise.
The next moment, the bookshelf moved to one side, revealing a secret room.
Yan Su walked into the secret room and the bookshelf automatically returned to its place.
The secret room is not large and is filled with small wooden boxes.
Yan Su took out a piece of paper from the wooden box closest to the wall.
The paper lists a long list of item names, among which there are items such as Diyuan Fruit and Kyanite, and different quantities are also marked at the back.
Yan Su thought for a moment, put the list away, and left the secret room.
Soon, he crossed the yard and walked into the room where Xiao Zhan was.
Seeing Yan Su enter the room, the middle-aged man said to Xiao Zhan:
"Master Xiao, this is Yan Su, the chief escort of our Xinglong Escort Agency."
After saying that, he left the house directly and closed the door.
Yan Su smiled and sat down on the chair opposite Xiao Zhan, personally picked up the teapot and filled Xiao Zhan with tea, and said with a smile:
"Young master is really generous."
"It's just that I'm curious," Yan Su said slowly:
"Things like Diyuan Fruit and Kyanite are not commonly used, but they must be available in Wanbao Tower in Qingzhou. Why do we need to spend so many True Yuan Stones and pay such a high price to transport them back to Qingzhou from Liangzhou?"
Xiao Zhan's expression remained unchanged, "These supplies are very important to me, and I am also purchasing them in large quantities from Qingzhou."
"If Mr. Yan can get these things, I will buy them all at double the market price."
After hearing Xiao Zhan's words, Yan Su did not speak immediately, but stared at Xiao Zhan's eyes for a long time before saying:
"What's the use of acquiring so many?"
"As far as I know, apart from a few of these things that can be used as medicine and some that can be used as decoration, the rest have no function."
Xiao Zhan waved his hand, "Of course I have my uses."
Yan Su smiled and said, "Master Xiao, don't think too much, I'm just curious and asking."
"Speaking of it, it's a coincidence," Yan Su continued: "Some time ago, someone entrusted me, Xinglong Escort Bureau, to transport a batch of goods, and it was the same thing."
"That's why I'm so surprised. When did these things become treasures?"
Xiao Zhan's expression remained unchanged and he was also observing Yan Su's reaction.
Yan Su had a smile on his face and was not in a hurry to continue talking. .c
After a long time, Xiao Zhan continued:
"Why, I've given out so many True Essence Stones, and you, Xinglong Escort Agency, don't want to make a profit?"
"Of course not," Yan Su nodded, looked at the True Essence Stone redemption coupon on the table, shook his head and said:
"Since the young master is so generous, I won't charge a deposit."
"When the goods are delivered to Mingfeng City, I will personally lead people to receive them and personally lead people to deliver them to Qingzhou."
Xiao Zhan nodded, "Okay, I'll come over with the goods in a few days."
After saying that, Xiao Zhan stood up and walked to the door, then turned back to Yan Su and said:
"Boss Yan, what I just said still stands. If you can get these things, I will buy them at double the market price."
Yan Su nodded, "Don't worry, Mr. Xiao, I won't miss a business that can make a lot of money."
Xiao Zhan said "Yeah" and immediately left Xinglong Escort Bureau.
At this time, a white-haired old man walked out of the next room.
He heard clearly the conversation between Xiao Zhan and Yan Su just now.
This old man is usually the accountant of Xinglong Escort Agency.
But Yan Su's attitude toward this person was extremely respectful.
He hugged his fists and said to the old man:
"Mr. Wu."
The old man nodded and said solemnly:
"This is definitely not a coincidence."
"The supplies he mentioned are all things we collected secretly."
"Otherwise, he also has the "Yuan Wu Da Dian" in his hand."
"Otherwise, he is testing you. He might be coming for us."
Yan Su nodded, with a cold light flashing in his eyes:
"Then, I arrange for someone to get rid of him?"
The old man thought for a few seconds, shook his head and said:
"You don't know the origin of the other person yet, so you can't act impulsively."
"Besides, I can't see through him. The opponent must be very strong."
Having said this, the old man paused and seemed to have thought of something:
"In the past, we purchased these supplies directly from Wanbao Tower, so we should have left a record at Wanbao Tower."
"Either he is from Wanbao Tower, or he got some information about us from Wanbao Tower."
"No matter what, it has something to do with Wanbao Tower."
A flash of worry flashed in Yan Su's eyes:
"Mr. Wu, the previous shopkeeper of Wanbao Tower in Mingfeng City died in our hands. Does Wanbao Tower know about this?"
The old man nodded, "It's not impossible."
"Find someone to go to Wanbao Tower and test it out."
Yan Su nodded in agreement, then walked to the yard, stopped a young man and whispered a few words.
After a while, the young man left Xinglong Escort Bureau and rushed directly in the direction of Wanbao Tower.
Wanbao Tower.
Pan Xuelian stared at the transaction record book in her hand.
Seeing someone come in, she closed the book calmly and looked at the young man who walked in.
"Shopkeeper Pan, long time no see."
Pan Xuelian nodded with a smile, walked out from behind the counter, asked the young man to sit down on a chair, poured him tea, and then said with a smile:
"Xiao Lizi, you Xinglong Escort Agency haven't been to my Wanbao Building for a long time."
"It seems that the strength of your escorts from Xinglong Escort Agency has improved greatly, and they are rarely injured."
Li Qing smiled and held up his hands, "By the good fortune of Shopkeeper Pan, I bought a large quantity of healing medicine from you half a year ago, but I haven't used it up yet. This time, I still need to purchase half a year's supply."
Pan Xuelian smiled and nodded, "I'll find someone to send to your Xinglong Escort Agency soon."
Li Qing nodded and looked outside the door. When he saw no one came in, he lowered his voice and said to Pan Xuelian:
"Shop Manager Pan, I have another business, I wonder if you are interested."
Pan Xuelian was a little surprised, "What business?"
Li Qing said truthfully:
"Today, a young man named Xiao came to our Xinglong Escort Agency and said he wanted to send a batch of goods to Qingzhou."
"Do you know how many True Essence Stones he produced?"
Pan Xuelian frowned slightly: "If you transport it from here to Qingzhou, you will need hundreds of thousands of true essence stones."
Li Qing shook his head and said in a lower voice:
"He asked us to dispatch all the fifth-level escorts and 5.1 million true essence stones."
Hearing this amount, Pan Xuelian was stunned, "Who in Mingfeng City can be so generous? What kind of treasure is this gift?"
Li Qing shook his head again, "It's not a treasure, just some Earth Element Fruit, kyanite and the like. What kind of treasure is this?"
Speaking of this, Li Qing also complained:
"I really don't understand these rich people. If I have five million true essence stones and purchased them directly in Qingzhou, why would I go through so much trouble to send them from Liangzhou?"
Pan Xuelian was lost in thought for a moment.
"Li Qing, your Xinglong Escort Bureau is going to make a fortune this time. You don't need to take any risks for such a simple task."
Li Qing nodded excitedly.
"The man surnamed Xiao also said that for things like Earth Yuan Fruit and Kyanite, he should have as much as he wanted, and it would be better if he had high prices.
A price that is double the market price. "
Pan Xuelian's eyes lit up, "Li Qing, what do you mean?"
Li Qing chuckled, "Sister Pan, you also know that our Xinglong Escort Agency is in the escort business, where can we find these things?"
"But your Wanbao Tower is very capable."
Pan Xuelian frowned slightly, "You mean, I mobilized a large amount of these supplies and sold them all to him?"
Li Qing nodded, "That's what our head guard means."
Pan Xuelian's face was full of surprise:
"If this is the case, I can definitely find the young man named Xiao and sell the goods to him directly."
Li Qing frowned:
"Sister Pan, our chief escort asked me to ask you, didn't the batch of supplies in his hand come from your Wanbao Building?"
Pan Xuelian shook her head, "Very few people buy these things. I only have a little bit here, and they are all piled in the corner of the warehouse, gathering dust."
Li Qing paid attention to Pan Xuelian's expression, nodded and said:
"That's no wonder."
"Our chief escort also asked him why he didn't just come to your Wanbao Building to buy it."
Pan Xueling's eyes were full of curiosity:
"Yeah, why don't you just come to Wanbao Tower?"
Li Qing smiled and said, "The man named Xiao didn't say anything about the reason, but from the tone of his words, it seems that he is not very friendly to Wanbao Tower."
"It seems that I have also purchased from you, Sister Pan, several times, but then something seemed to conflict with me."
Pan Xuelian was even more confused, "No, no one has ever purchased these things from me."
Li Qing was also surprised, "Could it be something that happened when I took over as shopkeeper?"
Pan Xuelian thought for two seconds, nodded and said:
"It's possible."
"Okay, forget about these things," Li Qing asked with some urgency:
"Sister Pan, let's talk about cooperation. You can mobilize as much as you can. Once sold to the guy named Xiao, our escort agency will share the profit equally with you."
Pan Xuelian immediately laughed:
"Of course, that's it, it's settled, you'll pick up the goods in five days."
"Okay, then it's settled," Li Qing nodded, then stood up with a smile, "Then Sister Pan, I'll go back first."
Pan Xuelian nodded, "Don't worry, I'll find someone to deliver the healing medicine to your escort agency soon."
Li Qing thanked him and left Wanbao Tower.
At this time, an old man walked out of the teahouse opposite and entered Wanbao Tower directly.
Pan Xuelian said in a deep voice:
"That person acted very quickly and went straight to the Xinglong Escort Bureau. What happened back then was indeed not simple."
The old man nodded, a flash of memory flashed in his cloudy eyes:
"When Li Xiang was the shopkeeper, he never mentioned this matter to me."
"Later he disappeared, and I investigated for a while, but I didn't find any clues."
"Now it seems that Li Xiang's incident is most likely related to Xinglong Escort. Even if Xinglong Escort is not the murderer, he should know something."
Pan Xuelian thought for a long time before saying:
"Just wait and see what happens."
"Mr. Mo, I'd like you to go out and collect as many materials as possible from all the Wanbao Tower's Diyuan Fruit and Kyanite in Liangzhou. I want to see what secrets are hidden behind this!"
The old man nodded, "Even the Xinglong Escort Bureau sent people to test it. Apparently, the Xinglong Escort Bureau is hiding very deep. I will inform the people in the secret building to keep an eye on the Xinglong Escort Bureau."
Pan Xuelian nodded, took the record book in her hand, and walked upstairs.
Qifu Inn, first floor.
Xiao Zhan and Fang Lingjun sat against the wall, ordered some appetizers and two jars of good wine, and chatted while drinking.
Fang Lingjun rotated the wine bowl in his hand with his five slender fingers and chuckled:
「
So, you infer that the Xinglong Escort Bureau may be related to the Huangning Sect back then? "
Xiao Zhan nodded, "Whether it is true or not remains to be seen."
"It's just that Wanbao Tower seems to be investigating this matter as well."
"Wanbaolou wants me to investigate for them, and I also want Wanbaolou to investigate for me."
Fang Lingjun chuckled and drank up the strong wine in the bowl, "It depends on which of you can take advantage of whom."
Xiao Zhan shook his head, "Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes."
"The worst I can do is leave Mingfeng City. Is it possible that the Wanbao Building can't be opened? Is it possible that the Xinglong Escort Bureau will be disbanded directly?"
Fang Lingjun smiled and stopped talking.
In her opinion, if you want to know something, just go directly to the relevant forces and ask.
Xiao Zhan was worried about disturbing the snake, but Fang Lingjun was not worried. So what if the snake was frightened? Can the snake escape from her hand?
"Shopkeeper, bring us all the good wine and meat!"
A loud shout came from the door.
Then I saw three young men walking in from the door.
Many of the drinkers present knew these three people, and they stood up and greeted the three young men with a smile.
Even the shopkeeper, who had been busy fiddling with the abacus at the counter, trotted over to meet him.
"Young Master, Young Master Gongliang, Young Master Yuchi."
The three young men all smiled and nodded, walked to a special table and sat down.
These three people are the young heads of the Nanmen family, the Gongliang family and the Yuchi family of this generation.
The one wearing a blue brocade robe is Nanmen Geng of the Nanmen family.
The one wearing a white brocade robe is the Gongliangchen of the Gongliang family.
The one in green robe is Yuchi Gong of the Yuchi family.
