After the fairy disappeared

Chapter 1255: Royal Emblem

The Yangshan Islands are hot and humid, with no snow all year round. Summer usually lasts from mid-May to the end of August, and anyone who works outdoors will sweat. Yaoguo's bamboo cloth is breathable, soft, and wear-resistant, much better than linen.

This thing will definitely be very popular if we bring it back to the Islands and the Bailie.

"That's great." This small piece of cloth was just one of the specialties that Fan Shuang brought with her, and she didn't think He Lingchuan would be interested. So he went on to say that the quality of these bamboo cloths was guaranteed because they all came from the royal family's manor.

He Lingchuan was surprised: "Royal what?"

Fan Shuang pointed to the emblem on the edge of the cloth and said, "This is the emblem of our royal family. Anyone who uses it privately will be beheaded."

He Lingchuan deliberately teased: "Your monarch has a wide range of interests, even doing cloth business."

"No, no, it's not your business." Fan Shuang waved her hands, "It's one of the businesses of the Fifth Prince."

"I see."

He Lingchuan also noticed his efforts and planned to let him bring back another achievement:
"Yao Country is the richest place in the Gold Plains and a good place to pan for gold. I am considering bringing Yangshan's business to Yao Country."

"Oh?" Fan Shuang was delighted. "You're most welcome!"

Which country doesn’t like to attract investment?

Besides, if Yangshan Chamber of Commerce enters Yao Country, Yao Country’s understanding of Yangshan and He Xiao will be further enhanced.

Local tyrants like the Yao Kingdom will carefully evaluate every new force that enters the Shining Gold Plains.

Once He Xiao has an interest in Yao State, he may not necessarily side with Situ He and other forces.

The two chatted for another half an hour. He Lingchuan even agreed on the next meeting with the other party. Only then did Fan Shuang get up and say goodbye, returning satisfied.

As he walked away, the Soul Mirror immediately asked He Lingchuan: "What's unusual about that emblem?"

It has been with He Lingchuan for too long and can detect any movement.

He Lingchuan stroked his chin and said, "I've seen you before. Do you remember when?"

After he said that, the mirror fell silent and tried hard to recall.

“Oh, this…”

"You can't remember it either?" He Lingchuan felt it looked familiar, but until Fan Shuang left, he couldn't remember where he had seen it. "The emblem of the Yao State royal family, how could I have had any impression of it before?"

Yao is a landlocked country. "Maybe a merchant from Yao happened to pass by Yangshan?"

"That must be a merchant from the royal family. Not everyone can use this emblem..." When Jingzi said this, he suddenly cried out, "I remember it! That's right, you've seen it in the Yangshan Islands before! In Shipwreck Bay, in a salvaged shipwreck!"

As soon as it yelled, He Lingchuan remembered. Yes, he had just subdued Min Tianxi's pirate gang not long ago, and he was salvaging sunken ships and searching for treasures in the bay of the archipelago where the evil spirit had faded.

One of the sunken ships contained a secret chamber filled with treasures, as well as a suit of gleaming armor bearing the emblem.

"It seems that the ship belongs to the royal family of Yao State." He thought again about how to make good use of this information.

Mirror asked again: "Hey, do you really want to open the Yangshan Chamber of Commerce to Yao Country?"

"Why not?" He Lingchuan walked to the window and stood with his hands behind his back. "Who would have a problem with money? Yao Country is the richest, so of course it has the most abundant products, the most complete logistics, and it is safer to do business."

Compared to other places in the Golden Plains.

"Besides, how can we truly understand Yao Country without sending spies there and dealing with its internal affairs?"

The Soul Mirror snorted: "I think Yaoguo also thinks so, that's why he wants to do business with you."

"Since I say I am a businessman, it is not easy for me to directly reject Yaoguo's request." We still have to maintain a superficial attitude, and the Yangshan Chamber of Commerce must establish the reputation of only doing business and not fighting.

He Lingchuan said slowly, "Don't forget, we still want to find out Qingyang's intelligence."

Qingyang is now serving as the Grand Regent in Yao State.

Therefore, he and Yaoguo really benefited each other.

Mirror was a little worried: "I see, you are getting deeper and deeper into the Golden Plains, be careful not to be swallowed by the quagmire."

He Lingchuan laughed: "Bejia didn't even swallow me, how could the Golden Plains do that?"

The soul-stealing mirror reminded him: "Be careful of capsizing in the ditch."

……

At the end of the Chou hour, the moon is dark, the wind is strong, and everything is quiet.

Behind the Tongshan Casino in Jucheng is a small alley, one side of which is filled with miscellaneous items.

The casino's gatekeepers would often come over to inspect. Occasionally, a few gamblers who wanted to default on their debts would jump out from here, and then it would be their turn.

It was a quiet night. The gatekeeper had already yawned fifteen or sixteen times. He was thinking about finding a good place to relax after daybreak when another person appeared in the back alley.

It really appeared out of thin air. They didn't see any movement of jumping out of the window and thought they were seeing things.

But this did not stop the two from shouting, "Stop, go back!"

The windows on the back side of the casino were nailed shut, but someone always found a way to pry them open.

When they rushed over, they took a look at the window. Hey, it was still sealed and had not been pried open.

How did this person get out?
When the gambler saw them, his shoulders slumped and he cursed "bad luck". He didn't run away or jump over the wall. Instead, he grabbed two yellow talismans from his arms and prepared to stick them on their foreheads when the opportunity arose.

Soul fixing talisman.

This talisman is not only effective against ghosts, but can also make the souls of living people confused.

"Ba ba" sounds twice.

Regardless of how the gambler specifically did it, the yellow paper ended up sticking to the foreheads of the two gatekeepers.

So they didn't move.

The gambler was about to squeeze through them when a voice suddenly rang out in the quiet alley:
"Where are you going?"

The man was so frightened that he turned around suddenly.

It was Fu Liushan.

He saw a man standing on the wall, smiling at him from above.

"Congratulations, Island Master." He coughed lightly, "I haven't seen you for a long time."

"I've been looking for you for a while, but I couldn't find you anywhere in the city. Turns out you're here."

Less than three days after returning to Jucheng from the Howling Forest, Fu Liushan disappeared. He Lingchuan wanted to discuss something with him, but couldn't find him anywhere in the city.

He Lingchuan jumped down from the wall and waved his hands in front of the two gatekeepers. However, they didn't even blink. They seemed to be completely stunned. "It turns out that Master Fu's talisman can also be used against ordinary people."

Fu Liushan straightened his clothes and said awkwardly, "This gambling house is not yours, right?"

"No, but they keep money in my bank."

Fu Liushan stared: "You still have a bank?"

Yes, when you go on adventures and fights with this guy, you always forget that he is a successful businessman and a wealthy man.

Ordinary people would feel that they don't have enough time to practice, but He Lingchuan had to practice while taking care of a huge industry. How did he manage to succeed in both?
