Section 2108: The Whereabouts of the Saber

This is a conspiracy of Cao's House of Commerce. Anyway, no matter what, as long as I sell these black gold mines, and even through this sales method, Cao's House of Trade can also sell some people in the market to everyone. In this way, many people will be able to serve the people of the Cao's House of Commerce. Although those people don't know that they are already members of the Cao's House of Commerce, the things they do are arranged by the Cao's House of Commerce. , As long as they are not fools, they can be regarded as the people of Cao's House, and the deacon Cao's House has never been in everyone's sight. It is possible to do such a thing a little bit, but If it is exposed, it is not a trivial matter, and everyone is not very happy in their hearts.

Recently, Li Cong hasn't had such a comfortable rest for a long time. Now this guy is looking at everything in Fenxiang Valley happily. Now this place has become the place of the Southern Empire. In order to ensure his innocence, he only It may be that some rights here have been handed over to the royal family of the Southern Empire. You just do what you see. There are some things we can do, and some things we can’t do. For example, now, you are going to demolish this place. It's still a cradle of criminals, but it's different from before. The 200,000 troops have begun to enter here under the leadership of General Hu. They have no intention of going out at all. You can stay here, even if you are If you have any questions, you can come here, but there is one point, the tax is paid on a per-person basis, 500 taels of silver per person per month, if you have any questions, you can continue here. If not, then I'm sorry, go to work as a coolie, or go outside to let the government people track you down. Li Cong was also a little surprised by this. Is the Southern Empire so poor and crazy that it dares to ask for such money.

The financial situation of the Southern Empire is indeed worrying. They thought that with the indemnity from Cao's House, they could finally have a luxury. Who knew that the money would be gone in the middle. Such a thing made them dumbfounded , what is going on here. Why can't you have a good time with me? It only took a few days for it to disappear, including some ministers of the Southern Empire, but they didn't speak ill of Cao's firm in the court, mainly because the compensation to the country was gone. But there is still something for them personally. Although it is less than before. But it's better than nothing, these things can also make me do a lot of things, the most unlucky one is His Majesty the Emperor of the Southern Empire. Nothing at all.

Just like the Southern Empire, Daozong's financial situation has reached its lowest point recently, and the head of the genius has nothing to do. In the past, he thought that his cooperation with Cao's House started from a basic point, but Now it seems that it is not the same thing at all. Now I am asking for others. Li Cong just let this guy feel it. Only in this way can I better let him understand some truths. Otherwise, how can I be obedient? Listen to your own words, saying that Zong is not a small organization, there are so many people up and down, if I can subdue them, then there is no need to say so much about everything, except for these things during this period , Another thing entered Li Cong's eyes.

Li Cong was happy that day and had nothing to do. He was fishing in his manor. Li Cong didn't like this activity very much, but Li Cong's dead grandfather liked it very much, and it will continue in the future. You can feel some of the artistic conception of grandpa at that time,

It's a pity that this thing doesn't seem to fit me very well. Up to now, I still haven't gotten anything up. Look at Wu Zuoxi next to him. The good guy came up one by one. Wang Quantai over there also I wonder, he used to be very good at fishing in the Eastern Empire, why is it so bad now, do all the fish here eat Wu Zuoxi's bait? Both of them are bad. Looking at the carp jumping up one by one in the distance, this guy is also a little puzzled. There is absolutely nothing to say about his own fishing skills, but why is this? Why didn't you catch it?

"Forget it, I don't play with this thing anymore. This fish has nothing to do with me. Look at Lao Wu, how can he be so capable? Are all the fish here are relatives of your family or what? What's the matter? I basically didn't even move here." Li Cong looked at Wu Zuoxi's achievements and said helplessly. One thing, even in terms of connotation, the two of them are not as good as my own, but my place is very empty, but there is another consolation that Wang Quantai is also like this, there is nothing.

"Hehe, if these are all my relatives, I would rather let them go. Today is pure luck. Forget it. Since the boss doesn't want to play anymore, I won't be here to make you feel uncomfortable. The people in the kitchen made it for us, and we will eat this at noon." Wu Zuoxi asked the people below to remove these things, and the three of them walked into a gazebo. The location here is very good. It can be said that there are winds from all directions. Although it is summer, it is still very comfortable to sit here, and there is no feeling of heat. The servants around know that the three of them must have something to say. So after delivering fruit and tea one by one, they all walked away. There is no need for people to serve here, just watch from a distance.

"Come and taste it. This is the newly cultivated tea in our firm. It hasn't been sold yet. I know you two are tea drinkers. How about a taste of this tea?" Li Cong said with a smile , In fact, this is the Dahongpao obtained from the earth. These things are all produced and shipped over on the rty planet. They will definitely not be produced on this planet, because the power on this planet is too powerful. There are too many, and I can't watch these things all the time. If I don't pay attention and my competitors get rid of this, I don't know what to do, so I have to watch it at that time. This is because people have pulled down the prices of these commodities. That is definitely not what I want.

"The good things here, boss, are really good, but they are a bit more expensive. I guess this kind of thing is a so-called limited edition. Even a person like me would feel pain if he drank it at this price." Wang Quantai is a A person who likes to drink tea very much. Although the salary given to him by Cao's House of Commerce is not low, he always wants to drink something better. In the past, the most expensive tea on the road was only a few thousand silver a tael , Li has never been the same since it was born, there are tens of millions of one or two, and some people say not to buy the best drink. Just buy the most expensive one. People who used to like tea can't afford it anymore, but those arty people have become the mainstream of tea, and they often say something new about themselves in front of the common people, and they don't know the big characters very well. It's a little different now. Each of them seemed to be extraordinary.

"Is it because my salary is too little for you? If so, I will give you some more in the coming year. It will definitely be enough for you to drink tea. And in the future, as long as it is working hours, the tea will be reimbursed by the business, and it must not be allowed You pay your own money. If this is said, people will say that I am a mean employee who is the boss. I will endure other reputations, but this is absolutely not allowed, we are not that kind of people. "Li Cong said with a smile. In the whole continent, it can be said that the treatment of the managers of Cao's Commercial Bank is the best. Take the two guys in front of us as an example, their monthly money can already make them He has become the richest man in a province, and the two of them are not too young, so it is useless to ask for so much money. What I want now is to let my residual heat be used, and I have more There are things to do, such as the one in front of you, to bring some masters to the people of Cao's House, some real masters, not the machines that come out of the training camp, those people basically have no possibility of progressing, and they Those people can only be regarded as machines, not masters. Although Li Cong's genetic medicine has been used very well, to be honest, that thing will still have side effects. What I thought was to continue to learn reconnaissance skills and continue to do tasks. Who knew that after hearing what they said, I changed my mind a bit. This matter will be the ranking battle of the dragon and tiger rankings in three months.

This thing has a history of tens of thousands of years on the mainland. Prince Zheng of the Western Empire and the God of Death of the Southern Empire used to be one of the above. Even Tuoba Yuanye once participated in the Tiger List For the ranking battle, if the genius battle a few days ago was a place to select talents, then this dragon and tiger list is a place that real masters need to compete. Here you can have many, many performances, as long as If you have that idea, everything can become a reality, and no one will give you any obstacles. If you want to join other organizations, that would be even better. Here will also provide you with a platform. They will tell you all about the treatment, and even help you negotiate with those large organizations. This is the best place on the Dragon and Tiger List.

The rules are also very simple. All fighters above the seventh level can sign up, but most of them can only go in for a while, and the rest need to rely on their own skills. According to Wu Zuoxi, this Ninth-level fighters generally hit the Tiger Rankings, while tenth-level fighters are qualified to hit the Dragon Gang, but they can only hit the last place. If you can kill this guy, you can go straight up Once you get his name, you have the right to challenge the one in front of you. Of course, if you are not good at learning and get killed, it can only be to say sorry to you. We don’t want to use people here. You are on your own, no one forced you to come here, it is your own business in the end.

"Speaking of this thing is a ranking battle. There are many people who are going to be famous in the world. Otherwise, I guess it is impossible for someone to make such a boring thing. Since this is the case, our Cao's firm needs What are you doing? We don’t want to send people to participate in this event, do we?” Li Cong said with his eyes closed. He has been really tired recently. If he has a wish, he just hopes to have a good rest. I suffered from serious lack of sleep for a few months. In the eyes of others, Li Cong didn't need to rest for such a long time, but now it's different from before. Li Cong also needs to rest. It's also for one person, and if you don't take a break, your energy will feel that you can't keep up.

"Of course we are going to choose people. This council is mainly established by the four empires and the four magician unions. It is filled with their people. They also stipulate that most of the forces can talk to the people they choose. Talking, but there is only one chance each time, and the other one is that the four major sects have the priority, which should have been in advance, but because of the incident you caused in the frozen forest some time ago, let them delay Yes. Now that the devil is coming out, the world is in need of experts, so they will come out to bubble up. If they can do well, we can save a lot of energy. But I guess if they follow If the devil is against him, but there is no chance of winning at all, so many people who have already retired from the dragon list are useless, how capable are they who are still fighting." Wu Zuoxi obviously did not How optimistic about them. As for the devil at the time, he could estimate that Emperor Xuan couldn't do anything to that guy alone, but all these people are no match for Emperor Xuan, so how could they kill that devil? There are too many things, some things that are not clear.

"What we have to do now is to get the qualification to choose people. According to the regulations of the conference, there must be a person in our organization who is in the top 20 of the dragon list to have the right to choose. Don't underestimate this right. If If we have this person, we can go in and have a good fight with them, but if we don't have this right, we don't even have the qualifications to talk to them, so no matter how powerful they are at that time, it will be useless. There is no fate." Wang Quantai obviously also knows a lot about this matter, looking at the two of them, it seems that they are going to participate.

"Hehe, it's not easy. I'll go to participate in person, and feel the foundation of these guys by the way. I haven't moved much for a long time, and my body is not very flexible. I want to see what they are capable of. How about it." Li Cong said with a smile, Li Cong's current ability is definitely capable of attacking the Dragon Gang, which means that he has not activated all his combat power. , but the world is so big that there are no surprises. No one knows if there is a very powerful person in the middle. If such a person appears, Li Cong can only retreat. The qualifications are enough, is it really good to be the first in the Dragon Gang? That is absolutely impossible. If you join this side, you will definitely offend that side. If you don't go, it will appear that you don't give others face.

Those who can enter the dragon list are basically of very high level. Nine-level peak fighters may be very remarkable in other places, but here is an entry-level person. Ninety percent of the dragon list is ten pairs. Level-9 fighters, only one or two are level-9 fighters. Of course, there are many magicians and so on. They are also very good in this kind of challenge. Magicians will become a local highlight wherever they go of.

"If the boss goes out in person, there is no problem with this matter. I did a survey and found that there are quite a few of our competitors this time. During the genius battle last time, almost half of the powers in the world participated. , but this time at least more than 90%, we may not get anything if we are not careful, this time the venue is on the ghj lake, which is good news for us Yes, our airship just opened a base near there. If we operate well, it’s time for us to make money again, especially the route from the Warcraft Mountains to here, and many people will come Yes, that would be the best time." Wang Quantai was considered a disciple of Confucius and Mencius in the past, but now he always talks about money and other things, which is really out of date.

We have been talking about the four guardians of Cao's House for a long time, but Warcraft has always been in charge. This seems a bit unreasonable. Li Cong also thought in his heart that their competitiveness must not be as good as those of empires and sects. , but I have to get a few masters, real masters, let them serve Cao's house, the deacon may cause a lot of trouble, but what else can I do besides this, when the time comes Throwing money vigorously is enough to make those people tempted, and there is not much ability left. Thinking about whether I should build an empire, that would make me much easier to talk about. Deacons can’t be built in a short period of time, and they have to be considered in the long run. An empire doesn’t have such a foundation after it’s established. of.

Thinking of the four guardians of Cao's House, Li Cong's face is also a bit ugly. At the beginning, Li Cong said that there must be a guardian in each of the four empires, but outsiders Li Cong didn't believe it. , There are a few ninth-level fighters trained here, but almost all of them are elementary-level ninth-level fighters. Don't talk about fighting. Even self-protection is a problem, but Li Cong just threw them all into the Warcraft Mountains 1200km away from human society. If you can escape, it is your ability, if you cannot escape. You just die inside. The money I spent on you was wasted. Although Li Cong told them that, he still added insurance, training is okay. But it won't work if you spend your life. I asked Xiaohu to find some monster bodyguards for them, but he didn't tell them. He also told those monster bodyguards. It was shot, and it was only shot twice. If you can survive, it is your life. If you can't survive, then we don't care about our business.

The training camp of Cao's House has always been a gold-swallowing beast, and now basically millions of people go in every month, and the total number is maintained at around 6 million, but only one ninth-level fighter can come out every month , Of course, 100,000 people died in it. These people died in it because they couldn't stand the problem of genetic medicine. These things were also agreed at the beginning. Those who died, their families Everyone can get 500 taels of blood-supporting gold. These people may not have that much money in their lifetime. They also want to earn a piece of wealth for their family. It can also improve their lives. This is not forcing them. After all, this thing has a thirteen-third mortality rate, which can be said to be not low.

It is very easy to train a first-level fighter, almost 500 taels of silver pills and some training are enough, but it is not so easy to produce a second-level fighter, 90% of the people here All of them are fifth-level fighters, because as long as you can bear the potion in the first few levels, then it will be fine, but if you can’t bear it, then I’m sorry, this matter is not that simple, there are other things There are a lot of things. It can be said that the former fifth-level fighters can be mass-produced now. There are still a lot of people. The cost of each one has basically reached 1.3 million taels of silver. Such a price can be said to be very cost-effective. Yes, Li Cong's three training camps can produce 800,000 fifth-level fighters every month, and 90,000 of the remaining 100,000 people spent 7 million taels of silver to become sixth-level fighters. The 10,000 people are the elite, 6,000 of them spent 18 million taels of silver to become seventh-level fighters, more than 4,000 spent 30 million taels of silver to become eighth-level fighters, and dozens of people can become eighth-level fighters Peak fighters, everyone here has to spend hundreds of millions of silver. Among these people, a ninth-level fighter can come out. They have spent at least 300 million silver. This is the monthly output of the training camp. , Every month, at least 200 billion yuan of Cao's commercial bank is used. The various expenses are simply money-consuming, and Li Cong can afford it.

It can be said that the ninth-level fighters trained so expensively have no effect at all. At most, they have the combat effectiveness of eighth-level fighters, so Li Cong threw them all into the Warcraft Mountains for training. Kill some monsters to earn some money and increase their combat power. At the beginning, I didn’t think about how powerful monsters you can kill. As long as it’s general, it’s enough to evolve slowly. I didn't say how powerful you can be, just let you start slowly, and they all entered from the outside, only these ninth-level fighters will enter from the beginning, because they are ninth-level fighters, There is not so much time for them to adapt. Only by avoiding fighting again and again can they grow into a real ninth-level fighter.

"To be honest, I have never trusted the people who come in from outside. Their loyalty is worthy of our consideration. Will these people have some security problems if they become our guardians? You must know that each of these people But they all have a lot of experience. They are different from those young people in the genius war. Those young people are basically like blank paper. You can do whatever you want. These people are all They have been in the arena and even in the court for a while, and they have been with several masters, and these people may pose a certain threat to our secrets." Wu Zuoxi said with some concern, these people have nothing to do with After joining Li Cong, it took a long time to come into contact with the secrets of Cao's house. It is not impossible for these people to be cold for a while after they come in, but if they want to be spies, it will be useless for a long time. We don't have any mind reading skills here either, do we?

"There is no need to worry about this. My master can help us. He can use his eyes to see traitors. This thing is one of his secret books. It's just that I don't know how to do it. This matter still needs to be taken seriously. Research it. That's it. You go to prepare some things that their high-level needs, the most needed things, and I will be responsible for getting the ranking in this tiger list. If it is possible, I will challenge the dragon list, and let me Master taught me a little bit about this, and I can tell how this person is." Li Cong said with a smile, this matter has to be blamed on the master who has never appeared before, this is also a helpless thing, isn't it? Who told me that my scouting skills are so powerful, now level 4 scouting skills can't detect fighters of level 9, neither can firmness skills, so I can only upgrade slowly, I haven't seen it for a long time With this system, it can be done well.

"Hehe, the two of us can't prepare for this thing. What they need most is nothing more than one thing. For people at their level, can there be pills that they need more? Things like money It doesn't do much for them, unless they have a huge family, otherwise the flowers have no other effect, and the things in your hands are the most lethal to them, how? What good do you have? Take something out?" Wu Zuoxi said with a smile, although he has reached the level of a seventh-level fighter after entering the training camp, he has no pursuit of making himself stronger, and he feels that he can do it now, besides, at the beginning Going in is because it can make his life longer, but his son is very good, he is already a third-level fighter at a young age, and Li Cong often gives him some pills, but absolutely not Let him enter the training camp, the things that will be mass-produced there are not very good, so you still have to rely on your own efforts, otherwise this person will be useless, this training camp can be completed in a short time It makes you very strong, but what you pay for is your whole life, and it is impossible to become strong in a lifetime.

Elixir? Li Cong smiled. He said that he was the number one alchemist on the entire continent, and no one else would say anything. The fact is like this. He often produces more than 80% of the elixir in the entire continent. How can a pharmacist compare with himself? Now that I want pills, it is easier to get them. This system has a refining system, and some of them can even be bought directly with silver, but Li Cong has always insisted on his own. The main purpose of refining medicine is to exercise one's mental power. It is said that Li Cong's mental power is already very high, which is enough, and there is no need for such training, but this time it is not bad, and this mining can see It came out, if Hua's mental strength is not very good, it is really a loss to himself.

After discussing this matter, let’s talk about how to deal with the Southern Empire. The intelligence organization of Cao’s House received a very important piece of information, that is, suddenly there are several masters in the Imperial Palace of the Southern Empire. They seem to be Li Cong. The intelligence organization did not figure out the few people they were looking for. It was really difficult to get news from the palace. The palace is the most heavily guarded place in the empire. It is not so easy to get some news.

"Boss, I estimate that the accuracy of this news is more than 70%. These people have never appeared before, and I guess they were responsible for the catastrophe near the capital of the Southern Empire. My analysis may be that the Supreme Emperor of the Southern Empire came out, and he suppressed these people, otherwise, I think they will still pose a threat to some of our industries, and this cancer must be removed." Wang Quantai also knew Li Cong's affairs in the Eastern Empire, he also has a thorough understanding of official affairs, so he immediately analyzed it with Li Cong. Not to mention, what he said made a lot of sense.

"What do you think?" Wu Zuoxi is a person with a good mind, and Li Cong also likes to ask this guy for his opinion on some issues.

"Hehe, this is very easy. The boss only needs to say this, and say that our Cao's firm heard that the offerings in the Imperial Palace of the Southern Empire are very impressive, and our offerings want to do a few tricks with them. Look, we can take a look at the flowers if they are willing, and if they are not willing, hehe. This is intriguing. But we must come up with something useful, something that can make tenth-level fighters jealous Yes, otherwise the flowers will not attract people without a bet." Wu Zuoxi, an old and cunning guy, said, he knew that Li Cong must have his own ideas about this matter. Now give him a way. The deacon asked Li Cong to pay some money. If Hua did not do this, it is estimated that Li Cong would have to go there to see it by himself.

"This is no problem. What a tenth-level fighter needs most is some healing medicine. I took out a small redemption pill, hehe, although this thing is not so precious, it can't be bought with silver. Back then I gave one such thing to Prince Zheng of the Western Empire. There are no more than ten in circulation in the world. We sold it, about five, and the rest should be tens of thousands of years old. As long as it is a tenth-level fighter with a bit of pursuit, it will definitely come out to fight for this. The name is also easy to say. It should be regarded as a warm-up for the qualifying competition of the dragon and tiger rankings. We will find a few nine-level monsters for the worship of Cao's House Just go, they don’t have any chance of winning with the flowers of the tenth-level monsters, and it is estimated that no one will do this, and the ninth-level monsters are just right, just right for them.” Li Cong perfected this plan again, I believe that as long as they are not fools, they will definitely take the bait. At that time, they will be able to see whether it is them. The Supreme Emperor of the Southern Empire has to pay him for finding an assassin to assassinate him. Otherwise, he really thinks we are easy to bully.

Several calculation methods appeared in Li Cong's mind in an instant, a solution that many people could not think of. This time, the Southern Empire must be solved. The Eastern Empire is now polite to Lao Tzu, although there are still small tricks behind the scenes. Yes, but you don't have the skills of others here, what are you messing around with me? It would be strange if they didn't beat you to death. I want you to see clearly, one by one, who is the person who wants your life.

Speaking of which, the original killer king is living another life now. After this guy fell off, he couldn’t remember anything in his mind. He was carried back by a boy picking herbs under the cliff. I get along very well with this young man's family.

"Second idiot, you are very powerful. I'm exhausted after walking for a day. I haven't memorized this thing since you came here. You are also very courageous and skilled. Back then, brother When I carried you back, everyone in the village said you were hopeless, but I didn’t believe it. I have been short of brothers since I was a child, and I have three sisters in my family. They beat me so hard that I couldn’t hold my head up because of the fights. Haha, this time I have You are good, we get the most herbs. In the past, we could have three or four taels of silver at most in a month. How many times.” A loyal man stretched his body behind the saber and said, this guy is very lazy, if he had to work hard on the other side of the cliff in the past.

This guy called Ersha is naturally a saber. After he got down, he didn’t know anything, so he was called Ersha. He vaguely remembered some things, but most of them still couldn’t remember. His body is now the most That is the body of a fifth-level fighter. Not to mention anything else, with this strength, there are really no opponents in this area. The mountains here are full of wild beasts, and there are no monsters. He does well in it. For a month, I got mixed up with this guy's family members, and this guy's sister still likes this silly and capable young man very much.

"Hey, if you hadn't carried me back, brother, I would have been eaten by wolves a long time ago. You guys are so kind to me. I don't have any other skills, and I can't remember what I used to do. I feel that I can do it, otherwise I would feel sorry for eating for free every day. Didn’t you say that the eldest sister is getting married? We brothers will work for a few more days. If we can save some money to give the eldest sister more dowry, it will be over You don’t get bullied, don’t you?” Thinking of the older sister who cooks for him every day, Saber’s heart feels warm, and he hasn’t felt this way for a long time. There is an old mother and four siblings in this family, and they treat him very well. Very good, but he still has the best relationship with the person who carried him back, savior.

"You really have a conscience, my eldest sister didn't treat me well. You are concerned about this matter. You are right. It is the best for us mountain people to have a few hundred catties of wheat when we get married. Now there is a lot of wheat in the market. But it’s 18 jin a catty. I heard that there is a shop in the town of Cao’s House, and there’s a 15 jin store. We save five taels of silver to exchange for a few hundred catties and bring it back. We’ll give it to our sister as a dowry. It’s not beautiful, my sister’s waist can be very straight, I used to worry that my sisters would be bullied after they got married, but now I’m not afraid, we are two brothers, if anyone bullies our sister, we will be brother-in-law If you go up, give him a stick and see if he dares." The man said cheerfully that the arrival of the saber really made his life in the village much better. People who bullied him before saw the saber directly. That burly look almost scared him back, this guy was so dazed, who knew what he would do.

Cao's firm? When Ersha heard this word, he seemed to think of something in his mind, but it soon became blurred again, and he didn't bother to think about it, he just knew that this kind of life is very comfortable, and he will be home soon, as if They have already smelled the aroma of the rice at home. They even caught a rabbit and roasted it when they go back. It is just for the whole family to enjoy it. Thinking of this, the pace is a little faster. It's really strange that the guy behind told him to slow down and keep up. It seemed that the two idiots had nothing on their bodies. The guy behind him had nothing on him, and he felt like he couldn't keep up with him. What's going on with this matter? Could it be that I can't run as fast as this kid with a load? Thinking of this, I hurried to run a little faster, I can't let myself be so ashamed, I am a man no matter what. (to be continued...)
