Big Dream Realm, Bamboo Forest Garden.
Chu Chen, Qingying, and Xiao Guizai met each other in a dream.
Today, Qingying is dressed in a red dress with a touch of pink and pink. She is beautiful but not delicate, flashy but not flashy, making her eye-catching.
Xu is taking over Jiuyou League's business in Yunzhou these days, and has to do everything by herself. Qingying is a little less lazy and a little more capable. When she saw Chu Chen, she asked with a smile:
"Erlang~ I heard from the kid that you have been in seclusion these days to meditate on the practice. Is the Taoist temple outside the pass so leisurely?"
"I would like to have some leisure time. The situation in the eight southwest states is currently turbulent. The doctors and teachers dispatched by the Immortal Court are delayed on their way. It is difficult for a good woman to make a meal without rice. I can only practice in seclusion, comprehend the exercises, and study the Taoist scriptures."
Chu Chen explained casually, and then asked:
"Ying'er, where are you and Lao Liu?"
"Lao Liu has already gone off to explore the wilderness alone. He said he would let you and I know when we settle down."
Qingying stroked her hair that was scattered around her ears: "My side is going quite smoothly. I have taken over all the forces of the Nine Nether Alliance in Yunzhou."
Chu Chen nodded slightly. He was not surprised by Lao Liu's behavior, but he saw that there was not much joy on Qingying's face.
"That's a good thing. You don't seem to be in a good mood."
Qingying took a sip of tea and said depressedly:
"I feel angry when I talk about it. I was deceived by my father and second brother."
"They said that the power in Yunzhou is not small, so I don't need to bring any manpower or troubles. I believed what they said. Only when I took over the power did I know that there were clearly three or two big cats and kittens, and there were only two fifth-level Taoists. A person with strong cultivation can barely see enough, and he doesn’t have much jade money, which adds up to more than five million jade coins.”
Chu Chen and Xiaoguizai: "."
The little ghost can't do arithmetic, but he also knows that one million jade coins is a huge fortune.
"Not much indeed."
Chu Chen echoed without conscience, and said comfortingly: "Ying'er, you are out to practice this time. It doesn't matter if you start at a low level. It's just a good time to get more experience. The situation in the wild land outside the pass is complicated, and it is a tough place. Good place."
"That's the truth."
The two hadn't seen each other for a few days, and they each talked about today's encounters. Although most of them were trivial matters, they still talked happily at first, as if they were back in the days of Longling Mountain in Qingzhou.
After some pleasantries, Qingying asked enthusiastically:
"Erlang, except for your appointment in Yunzhou, I'm afraid you didn't go out much, right?"
"good!"
Chu Chen nodded. In addition to supervising the construction of the Taoist temple these days, he also rushed to Wanquan County to meet with the county governor and prefectural governor, and also went to the county garrison barracks.
Other than that, I really haven’t been out.
There is no point in wandering around in an unfamiliar place, and you can easily get into trouble.
He didn't know much about Yunzhou, but the Nine Nether Alliance had been developing influence in Yunzhou for many years. Even if the scale hadn't grown, there was definitely a lot of information.
In particular, the forces of the Nine Nether Alliance adhere to neutrality and do business in a low-key manner. Many times, they have a lot of information that is not easy to get from the Immortal Court.
"Ying'er, have you discovered any good places?"
"Not bad!" Qingying said mysteriously: "The Golden Toad Palace will hold a Golden Toad Festival tomorrow. Erlang, are you free to go now?"
"Yes! Sister Ying'er, we are free, right senior brother?"
As soon as the little ghost boy heard about it and went to play, the whole ghost became energetic and looked at Chu Chen eagerly.
Chu Chen gave the kid a look, but he didn't refuse.
The doctors and instructors sent by the Immortal Court were delayed on the way and couldn't get through for a while. The Taoist Academy was an empty frame. In addition to supervising the construction of the Taoist Academy by the soldiers of the Mountain Temple, he studied the Dharma and practiced daily.
Right now, he happens to be free.
Speaking of which, even though he had just arrived in Yunzhou, the Golden Toad Palace was like thunder.
The Golden Toad Palace is one of the most powerful local forces in Yunzhou. It belongs to the neutral faction. It neither sides with the Dachang Dynasty nor the demon kingdom. Instead, it is keen on doing business, which is very similar to the Qingying family's Earth Dragon Alliance Chamber of Commerce.
However, compared to the Dragon Lord who is indifferent to fame and fortune, the owner of the Golden Toad Palace is much more ambitious. The most famous ghost markets, street markets, trade fairs, and auctions in Yunzhou all have the Golden Toad Palace, which is intricately connected and extremely powerful. .
"Ying'er, do you have an invitation to the Golden Toad Gala?"
Chu Chen heard Xuan Lingzi mention from his chat that this Golden Toad Festival was a high-end trade fair in the Golden Toad Palace. It adopted an "invitation system" and only those who received an invitation could participate.
There are countless natural and earthly treasures at the Golden Toad Festival.
Rare and rare treasures found in the markets of the Middle Land of Kyushu frequently appear here.
For example, the "Millennium Ling Bean", which is rarely seen in the market in Qingzhou, is very likely to be encountered at the Golden Toad Festival.
This is also why Chu Chen is so interested in the Golden Toad Festival.
Seeing that Chu Chen was very interested, Qingying smiled and said:
"I knew you were interested, so I ordered someone to get two of them to see if we could come across the Millennium Spirit Bean."
Chu Chen nodded slightly.
In order to plant thousand-year-old spiritual beans for him, Lord Long pulled out the spiritual grass and elixir and planted his spiritual bean seeds in the top-quality cave heaven spiritual land. The yield is expected to be large.
However, even if the production is full, there is still a small gap in his Millennium Spirit Bean. It would be best for him to find some more Millennium Spirit Bean seeds.
"Yinger, how much does an invitation cost?"
"More than 10,000 jade coins are not mainly about money, but because they are difficult to obtain. The invitations to the Golden Toad Gala are very popular and have been snatched up like crazy."
"Many people who don't attend the Golden Toad event also hoard invitations and then resell them to people in need, making a huge profit."
After speaking, Qingying said with envy:
"This Golden Toad Palace is really good at making money. In my opinion, his so-called invitation system is just a cover. They invite a few people and most of the invitations are sold privately."
"They made a fortune just by printing invitations. There is no more profitable business in the world. It's a huge profit."
Chu Chen was slightly surprised after hearing Qingying's words.
Live up to the name of "Golden Toad", he is good at making money.
Now that they had the invitation and happened to coincide with the Golden Toad event, Chu Chen and Qingying hit it off immediately and immediately decided to attend the event together and experience the customs and customs of the wilderness.
After making the decision, Chu Chen didn’t hesitate and asked immediately:
"Ying'er, where are you? The little ghost boy and I are looking for you."
Qingying smiled mysteriously:
"Erlang, come out and pick me up. I'll be there right away."
After saying that, Qingying left the dreamland.
Chu Chen was a little curious, so he immediately left the dreamland and flew out of Guangling Mountain with the little ghost.
After waiting for about a stick of incense, Yun Dou came galloping over.
In the clouds, a man dressed in red is particularly eye-catching.
"Senior brother, is this Sister Ying'er? How come it's here so quickly? It took just a stick of incense to make it happen."
The little devil was quite surprised.
Chu Chen was also a little surprised and stepped forward to greet him.
Just when she was about to ask, Qingying Xu guessed something and said first:
"Erlang, you must want to ask me why I came here so quickly."
Chu Chen nodded slightly.
Qingying smiled and said: "In the future, the chamber of commerce under my name will always settle in Wanquan County, and we can be neighbors again."
Immediately afterwards, Qingying explained: "Well, it just so happens that the Nine Nether Alliance has a place where spiritual energy gathers in Wanquan County, so I will move here."
When Chu Chen heard this, he couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.
Zhang Wuji’s mother once said that the more beautiful a woman is, the more likely she is to lie.
Obviously, Qingying lied. There is no such coincidence in the world.
