Wujun.
That is today's Suzhou-Hangzhou Yangtze River Delta. During the Three Kingdoms period, there was a saying that "most of the outstanding talents in Yangzhou came from Wu County", and there were four great aristocratic families: Gu, Lu, Zhu and Zhang. The representative figures are Gu Yong, Lu Xun, Lu Kang, Zhu Heng, and Zhang Wen. The profound heritage of the four aristocratic families lasted for hundreds of years.
However, at a certain period in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, it was unexpectedly ruled by a bandit, Yan Baihu, who proclaimed himself the "King of Virtue of Eastern Wu". Then there was the incident of Sun Ce's battle with Yan Baihu.
Pang Crab, ranked 35th, is the last celebrity. As the name suggests, his specialty is cooking hairy crabs. Before time travel, he opened many chain stores and online stores, and his business capabilities are also excellent.
According to normal rules, the crisp autumn air is the season for eating crabs. It is winter when the Pang Crab time travel starts, so there is no chance to show off. But this is a world of fairies and demons. There is a kind of crab that ignores the seasons and specializes in eating farmers' rice fields. It is very harmful and widely distributed.
So Pang Crab came into play. A meal of "Soy Sauce Jianghu Crab" was highly appreciated by Yan Baihu, and he then borrowed money from four major aristocratic families to open the "Soochow Dewang Chain Store". The chain stores are not only distributed in 15 counties in Wu County, but also open to Guangling across the street. Chen Deng, the governor of Guangling, loved aquatic products the most and was full of praise for them.
All in all, Pang Crab has had a very smooth start! Yan Baihu was born as a powerful bandit, and he had no airs about the world. He got along well with Pang Xie, and he could be said to be a monarch and his subjects. And there are so many talented people in the four major families! Lu Xun and Lu Kang father and son occupied two seats among the sixty-four generals in ancient and modern times. Gu Yong was also a highly regarded virtuous prime minister during the Three Kingdoms period...
But the fly in the ointment is that these talented people look down on Yan Baihu because of their high status. If you want to deal with them, you must be famous. The title of "Eight Chefs" of the last one is extremely important, otherwise you won't even be able to get in.
Pang Xie's main focus in the first half of the year was running around and leaving chain stores. The military commander Fu is also the brother of Yan Baihu and Yan Xing. If he can maintain the current ranking of 35th, he has already worked hard.
But there is a big boss next door! Jian Donglai from Kuaiji, Chu Kuangsheng from Guangling, and Xu Changqing from Jianye went to Wu County from time to time. It was a lot of pressure! It's easy to talk about Jian Dong coming, but as long as the female generals go to Yongchang, there will be no news. But after he left, Chu Kuangsheng in Guangling became even more rampant, and he basically stayed in the Lu family these days. And Xu Changqing, who went to Qu'a County specifically to look for the legendary unknown "Qu'a young general"...
There is no way, the big boss can't help poaching corners, Pang Xia just wants to keep the 35th position. A few days ago, Ma Yinglong, the fourth-ranked boss, suddenly dropped to 36th place. He moved up one spot to 34th place, which was a relief. As a result, the newly promoted Ni Tianwang, who was ranked 35th, turned into a dragon when the storm hit him. With the bonus of the title of celebrity, he immediately caught up and surpassed him, and Pang Crab returned to the 35th place again!
There are no ordinary people in the Three Kingdoms! ?
One can imagine the anxiety in Pang Xia's heart. What's more, there are a lot of rumors about Ma Yinglong on the forum. He will definitely return to the top, and then he will have no place for himself! There are only 35 titles among the top 50 celebrities. Each title represents a level...
In the past two days, it seems that Ma Yinglong can't wait for his return, and Yongchang Dachun has directly reached nearly 36th place!
Pang Xie is panicking and has been asking for information about Yongchang. Unfortunately, Yongchang has been almost empty in the past two days. All the players have followed Ni Cangtian and no one has posted. They have no idea how this spring is developing! So what if we know about development?
Then there was a sudden slowdown at midnight last night, and Dachun's ranking suddenly dropped to 38th!
what's the situation?
Pang Crab doesn't do much else, except that he handles a lot of money. This kind of ranking shock may occur when a lot of money is spent at once. Or injured or something like that...
Yongchang can't have that much money, it can only be injured! I heard that he has been injured, so I hope he collapses!
After finally getting a good night's sleep, Pang Xie was woken up by a player brother: "Brother Xie! It's not good! Then Yongchang Dachun ranked 35th this morning!"
Pang Xie suspected that he didn’t wake up from the nightmare! Until I saw it - the system prompted: Sorry! Your celebrity ranking is lowered by one place, and you lose the title of "Eight Chefs"!
Can you still make a comeback after falling? Pang Xie's eyes were dizzy and he felt like the roof had collapsed!
Wu County was supposed to be a dream starting place, but because of Yan Baihu's background as a bandit, it turned out to be a place that was difficult for him to enter...
While I was confused, another clerk came over to report: "Big shopkeeper, I just received the Luoyang Qianli Hongyan Express!"
Pang Xie was confused: "For me?"
"yes!"
Hongyan Chuanshuan is the world's most high-end letter express, which means letting a specially trained goose-looking bird deliver letters. The disadvantage is that it can only deliver letters in the north and south directions. Not ordinary people can afford letters of this size...
Pang Xie opened the letter and read it, and was confused again! Sima Gang! Sima Youda?
Of course Pang Xie knows Sima Gang. There are many ways for players to make a fortune, and Sima Gang is the one he despises the most, and he has never communicated with him on any forum. This letter should have been sent yesterday. Did he know that I was going to collapse yesterday?
But it has to be said that the players who rely on the Sima family have much more information than the players who rely on Yan Baihu. Pang Xie can understand his feelings now. They were all squeezed out of the key rankings by Dachun... If they want to make a comeback, they can only unite.
Then unite. Pang Xie couldn't wait a day for the letter to come back, so he rushed downstairs and went to the fairy and demon notice board to prepare a post. Then I immediately saw a bunch of related posts:
"What's going on?" How did Yongchang Dachun reach the ranking? 》《Are there any players in Yongchang? Post a post! 》
Then I saw a bunch of posts related to myself, "Brother Crab is about to cry and faint in the toilet"...
Are you happy to see me fall?
Pang Xie further strengthened his determination to join forces with Sima Gang. Just post three words on the forum: "Got it!"
Maybe others saw these three words and thought they were a response to the mocking post, but Sima Gang would definitely understand after seeing them.
While he was at a loss, a group of waiters in front of the store shouted: "Hello, King De!"
Pang Xie turned around and saw Yan Baihu, who was huge and burly and wrapped in tiger skin, coming to have breakfast again.
Before Pang Xie could speak, Yan Baihu snorted coldly: "Did you lose your ranking?"
Pang Xie couldn't figure out his tone, so he could only say: "Ups and downs, it's normal."
Yan Baihu patted Pang Xie on the shoulder: "Little brother, go to the private room to talk!"
Pang Xie was surprised. Does Yan Baihu not care about my lowering the ranking?
After entering the private room, Yan Baihu actually sneered: "What a famous person! What a bullshit ranking! You said that I became the King of Soochow, do you deserve this word?"
Pang Xie said: "Of course you are right. He neither robbed his family nor oppressed the people. What King De rebelled against was the mediocre court!"
Yan Baihu said solemnly: "Eat more, and after dinner, I will take you to the mountains!"
In the mountains!
Pang Crab understands. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the plague was severely taxed, and a large number of common people and even wealthy families fled across the river to the vast mountainous areas south of Wu County to form villages in order to survive. These people and the local aborigines were called Shanyue. This is Yan Baihu’s basic plan...
