protect our patriarch

Chapter 279 Shouda Firm VS Qian's Firm
……

Longzuo Northwest Five Guards!

With Northwest Wei as the core, the terrain here is vast, but the water system resources are very barren.Most of the aristocratic families mainly focus on animal husbandry, mines, or some drought-tolerant crops.

The famous Beidi heavy draft horse is a specialty of the northwest guards.There are many aristocratic families in Longzuo County, and they will buy and raise some heavy draft horses to expand the family's transportation capacity.

There are a total of eleven seventh-rank aristocratic families in the entire Northwest Five Guards, and countless eighth and ninth-rank aristocratic families are scattered in the vast grasslands and pastures.Most of the members of the aristocratic family, the farthest in their lives has been to the Northwest Acropolis.

The Northwest Acropolis stands on the edge of the vast grassland, with a majestic outline. The towering and thick city wall can easily withstand the impact of the fifth-order beasts. On the watchtower of the city wall, there are teams of garrison soldiers stationed.

The sun rises on the horizon, and the sky and the earth light up.

The heavy city gate opened slowly, and the caravans, people, or some casual practitioners and foot traders who had been waiting outside entered the acropolis in sequence.Humans only occupy a small part of the vast grassland.

Although the production of the grassland is not as rich as the resources in the south, there are also many unique products.For example, the famous common straw mushroom and spirit straw mushroom grow randomly in the grassland.

The former tastes delicious, and it is a rare delicacy to cook with grassland beef and mutton.The latter is a rare and precious spiritual food, which also has the effect of medicine.

However, both types of mushrooms are mainly fresh and tender, and they are best consumed two or three days after preservation, and their edible value will drop sharply every day that passes.Therefore, in areas a little further away, only dry-dried products can be enjoyed.

Chunyu Andong was born in a non-advanced Xuanwu family in the Northwest Five Guards, and he has excellent aptitude since he was a child.However, with the resources and power that the family possesses, it is absolutely impossible to help him break through the Lingtai Realm and become a high-ranking Lingtai Patriarch.

As a result, Chunyu Anton became a casual cultivator and wandered around during his time, and his footprints were almost all over Longzuo County.Purely within the scope of Longzuo County, there are many, many such people.

Most of them will eventually die in a foreign country without a sound.A small number of people will choose to settle down, forming one family after another.Only a very small number, due to factors such as luck, opportunity and hard work, have stepped into the Lingtai Realm and broken the solidification of the class.

Chunyu Anton is one of the few successful ones. After he stepped into the Lingtai Realm, he continued to organize casual repairs and run merchants, and established a small and humble firm.After chasing profit, he expanded his business, and gradually, his family, which was originally not well-known, was entrusted to a ninth-rank family.

And Chunyu Andong also became the patriarch of the Jiupin family Chunyu family, which can be said to be a complete achievement.

But when Chunyu Anton was young, he was used to running around. He missed his adventures in the wilderness with his casual cultivators when he was in Zhenzewei, and he also missed running back and forth between Donghaiwei and Baidaowei. , The days of earning meager profits.

Similarly, he also missed the time when he was young and frivolous watching the sunrise with a girl from a young family when he was in Izumowei.It's a pity that the identities of the two parties are very different, and in the end they were beaten by the girl's elders, which became a lifelong regret.

He wanted to look around again, but now that he is over a hundred years old, his family needs him to guard, and his descendants cannot do without him as an old ancestor.It is impossible for him to spend a lot of time wandering around unscrupulously like when he was young.

For the sake of the family, Chunyu Anton compromised.I thought, those nostalgia and hopes should be buried underground with him.

However, an opportunity now brought Chunyu Anton's already dead heart back to life again.

Northwest Wei Baiweiju branch.

Due to the well-managed Yuwen Family, the Baiweiju here can be regarded as one of the top restaurants, and many high-end local banquets and banquets will be held in Baiweiju.

Only due to the limitation of ingredients, most of the flavors here are cooked with beef, mutton and spirit meat. The most famous spirit meat is a high-end spirit meat grade ingredient called Lingxue sheep. First-class plump and smooth, melts in the mouth.

The storefronts next to this Baiweiju have been sold at some time, and after some renovations, the sign "Shouda Firm" has been hung on the door lintel.

Undoubtedly, this is a new firm jointly established by the Wang family and the alliance of in-laws. It was originally agreed to be called Shouzhe Firm.However, Wang Shouzhe rejected it, and finally named it after Shouzi Generation, which implies the meaning of "Shou Nuo Bida".

The current chief treasurer of the Northwest Guard branch of Shouda Commercial Bank is Lei Yongbai, an elder of the Lingtai clan in the Lei family in Changning. At the age of 150, he was dispatched to the Northwest Guard as the chief treasurer. Use the waste heat.

In addition, there are also a group of juniors of various ethnic groups who have been arranged in the branch, that is, to serve as staff, to learn from them, and to practice hard.

A branch like this must have at least one Lingtai-level cultivator in charge, otherwise it does not meet the standards of a business and is also easily questioned.Although the monks in the Lingtai realm of each in-law family are limited, and each has its own tasks.But this time the commercial bank opened up wasteland, many ancestors stopped their work and went to open up wasteland everywhere.

At the same time, each family is rapidly cultivating the next generation of spiritual platform monks to gradually expand the scale and replace personnel.

this day.

It is already the second month of the opening of the Northwest Branch of Shouda Commercial Bank. Because the Northwest Branch is a remote branch, only one spirit bird flying chariot arrives in the morning every day. Start to go to Longzuo County City.

Lei Yongbai, the shopkeeper of the branch of the commercial bank, has already started a busy day.Today, he will make an appointment to meet with the heads of the three eighth-rank families to discuss the price and supply of white jade spiritual rice and fire crystal spiritual rice grains. Along the way, he will also talk about the long-term supply contract of fresh spiritual fish meat and the family's spiritual meat industry. consignment agreement!

The members of these families have been supplementing their qi and blood with spirit and flesh for a long time, and they have long been tired of it.Fresh and tender spirit fish meat is what they desire most.

The young people under the command of the firm also started to work full of vigor.Recently, after some trial operation and promotion in the Northwest Branch, the business has gradually improved, which greatly boosted their confidence and made them feel that the future is bright.

The guests entered the business one after another, each with their own needs.There are letters that need to be sent, and I want to wait to buy some scattered fresh goods!

"Senior Chunyu." A young teller surnamed Gongsun was going through the formalities for Chunyu Anton and said, "Here is your itinerary list. You will arrive at the county seat tomorrow, and then you can take the county seat to Izumo on the same day. Wei's flying chariot will arrive at Izumowei the day after tomorrow. After two days of playing in Izumowei, you can take the flying chariot on the Longzuo Ring Road to Baidaowei, Changningwei, and Zhenzewei. Finally, you can take the Zhenzewei The flying chariot to the county town, and then transfer to the flying chariot from the county town to Northwest Wei."

"This package ticket only needs one hundred gold, and you will get a [-]% discount for the new opening! However, before you board the flying chariot, your personal luggage must not exceed ten catties, otherwise you will have to purchase an additional luggage ticket."

Just ninety thousand gold?Chunyu Anton was a little dizzy.Aside from the seven days spent in the various guards, this series of journeys plus back and forth only takes about six or seven days.

In half a month, ninety thousand gold, he has fulfilled his long-standing dream!If you have to take a carriage, you won't be able to come back in less than half a year.

It really deserves to be the flying chariot of the academy. Not only is it fast, but it also takes the shortest distance route.

at this time.

There was a clear and crisp cry of cranes in the sky, and a spirit bird flying chariot pierced the sky, falling at a fixed time and speed.Although it was not the first time I had seen it, it still caused a lot of onlookers.

After the flying chariot stopped.

The first ones to come down were the passengers, there were five of them in total.Except for one young man who is at the Qi Refining Realm, there are three others at the Spirit Platform Realm, and one middle-aged man with an unfathomable cultivation base.

It is very obvious that it is a cultivator in the realm of heaven and man.

Cultivators in the Heavenly Human Realm can suspend and fly in the air for a long time, but they have to consume profound energy every breath and every moment.If you want him to gallop through the sky like a starry night, if you drive two or three thousand miles overnight, you won't be able to kill him.

In fact, even if there are powerful cultivators in the Heaven-Human Realm who can do it, it's not worth it, it's too tiring!Why not be able to sit comfortably in the flying car for one night and arrive at the destination?
After the passengers got off, the guys employed by the branch began to unload the goods in a hurry.A small ice crystal freezer is installed on the flying chariot, and a small cargo compartment is towed at the bottom of the car.

The ice crystal freezer is used to store high-end ingredients, such as fresh seafood caught the day before yesterday, large lobsters weighing more than ten catties, abalones with large bowl mouths, giant yellow sea urchins and so on.

There are also some more precious iced sea spirit fish, which are some high-quality parts of a third-grade purple golden spirit marlin, which is an excellent choice for eating spirit fish.

According to the agreement between Shouda Trading Company and Yuwen's, these high-quality ingredients are probably supplied to Northwest Wei Baiweiju, and a small part is reserved by aristocratic families.

Because these ingredients are reasonably priced and extremely fresh, the business of Baiweiju has made great progress.

And in the small cargo compartment hanging under the flying car, there are some lightweight materials.For example, some precious spiritual silk, spiritual materials and other money-making things.

In addition, Hui Qisi, the chariot driver, also had a storage ring.The high-end clothes customized by the Zhou family in the county, the cultivation pills purchased on behalf of others, and about dozens of letters and small packages.

After Hui Qisi took off the storage ring, he went to eat and rest under the hospitality of the teller.Spiritual birds also have special personnel to take care of them, to feed them with spiritual food, and to rest.

The tellers and guys got busy.

Some employee riders, carrying letters and packages, began to rush to various places to deliver letters and packages.The guys from Baiweiju also came to pick up the freshest ingredients. Their customers have already ordered lunch and dinner, and it seems that no amount of ingredients is in short supply.

at the same time.

In the Northwest Acropolis, there is a Xiong family in the Northwest, who is a local seventh-rank tycoon, and there happens to be a girl in their family who is about to get married.On the first day of the opening of Shouda Trading Company, they took a flying chariot to the county town and ordered a beautiful wedding dress at Zhou's Tailor Shop, which was worth two to three thousand gold.

The "Shouda Firm" is in charge of transporting the wedding dress back to the Xiong family after the Zhou family completes it.With this order, Shouda Trading Company did not make much money, but it opened up a new way of thinking.

Back then, Wang Shouzhe had entrusted the Qian family to buy wedding dresses from the Zhou family in the county.But not only the cycle is very long, and there is no way to choose by yourself.

Therefore, taking this opportunity, Shouda Trading Company and Zhou's also reached a certain cooperation, and specially promoted the clothing manual for Zhou's, whether it was driving customers to Zhou's custom-made clothes, or pulling Zhou's clothing back and forth for door-to-door service, Shouda Da Commercial Bank can take [-]% of it.

It can also be seen from this that once the spirit bird flying chariot system is fully built, how many changes will it bring to Longzuo County's life?Go to the county town today to buy a set of clothes, and go home tomorrow after having a hot pot.

If you are in a bad mood, you can also go to Izumowei to watch the sunrise and sunset.

Even, when you have free time, you can go fishing in Zhenzewei, or go galloping on the prairie of Northwestwei for a few days!Of course, you can also go to Baidaowei to feed a seagull, and then go home and continue your life the next day...

All kinds of convenience have subverted the living habits of the people in Longzuo County.Of course, it was the top people in Longzuo County who changed, as well as a small number of ordinary people with business acumen.

The vast majority of people at the bottom of society are still how to live or how to live.

A situation similar to Northwest Wei is just the tip of the iceberg.The flying chariot system of each guard has gradually moved towards the right track, forming big news and big gossip in Longzuo County.

In addition, there were also many "rumors" that began to spread in Longzuo County.

The "Shouda Firm" was established because Qian's firm suppressed and betrayed its former allies.The owners of Shouda Trading Company were originally close partners of Qian's Trading Company, but Qian's Trading Company suddenly wanted to raise the cooperation fee from [-]% to [-]% all of a sudden.

Partners were forced to find ways to develop their own channels.And before that, the partners headed by Wang originally wanted to build a Shouda firm together with Qian.

This wave of rumors and facts has dealt a blow to the reputation of Qian's firm, and it is more of a mockery of Qian's stupid strategic layout.It is said that even the ancestors of the Qian family's Zifu were alarmed and lost their temper once in the family.

at the same time.

In the main hall of the Longzuo Qian family.

A middle-aged man with a broad face and a majestic expression smashed the vase with a "bang", and became angry from embarrassment: "Is that little bastard Xuerui back?"

A butler with unfathomable cultivation level whispered: "Patriarch, we have rushed to invite the young master back. However, the southern six guards are far away, and I am afraid it will take some time before we can go home."

"Long distance?" Patriarch Qian shuddered, and laughed angrily, "Why don't you take the flying chariot of Shouda Trading Company because of the long distance? That little bastard really failed to accomplish anything, and he didn't even know the situation, so he Dare to turn against Wang Shi and others. It caused me, Qian Shi, to miss a good opportunity!"

"Patriarch calm down." The housekeeper persuaded, "The young master also made such a decision for the good of the Qian family. And the Wang family obviously didn't follow the good intentions. Maybe they have already secretly planned and left our Qian family to do it alone. "
