Zuo Feng was not too surprised when the old man suddenly introduced his trading house to him, because when he told him the identity of the Kang family and saw the subtle change in the old man's expression, he had already guessed the other party's thoughts.

Now it was just confirmed from the old man's mouth, but what surprised Zuo Feng was the "Duobao Trading House" mentioned by the other party just now.

The word "Duobao" was like a big stone thrown into a calm lake of memory, instantly arousing memories that had been dormant for a long time. Zuo Feng still can't forget the competition for the bride that was deliberately arranged in Linshan County City.

However, what Zuo Feng cared about at that time was not the competition for Su Yan's marriage, but the fact that there was an independent space in Linshan County City, and it should be similar to the eight-door space, an independent space floating in the infinite space.

In addition to these, Zuo Feng still remembered an old man who threw an olive branch to him at that time. The old man's erudition was admirable, and he acted very fairly. This person was also the judge of the competition that night, Zhong Lao.

In that competition, Zuo Feng won a complete victory, so naturally, his marriage with Su Yan was aborted. After all, the competition was originally organized by the great commander Su Lan to prevent Su Yan from being with Zuo Feng.

At that time, Zhong Lao gave Zuo Feng an identity card in a consolation manner. The special feature of this identity card was that it gave Zuo Feng the identity of a foreign affairs steward of Duobao Pavilion.

Compared with the stewards in general forces, this identity is more special. It can not only obtain the help of Duobao Pavilion in various places, but also does not need to be restricted by Duobao Pavilion. Zuo Feng only needs to help Duobao Pavilion when he is willing.

At that time, Zuo Feng's cultivation was only at the Tempering Stage. In fact, a warrior of this strength could not be taken seriously by Duobao Pavilion, so letting Zuo Feng take action was just an excuse. Zuo Feng certainly understood that this was a benefit given by Zhong Lao. He saw Zuo Feng's knowledge and vision far beyond ordinary people at that time, and hoped to win him over to Duobao Pavilion.

At that time, Zuo Feng did not think too much. After all, there was no need to refuse something that was beneficial. However, the identity card of the deacon of Duobao Pavilion had been thrown into the crystal storage and never touched again.

Even if he went around later, no matter how big the trouble was, he never asked for help from Duobao Pavilion. First of all, he was in trouble every time, and if he really dragged the other party into trouble, he would still feel a little bit reluctant.

Another reason was that he did not know much about Duobao Pavilion. Once he used the power of Duobao Pavilion, his own troubles might not be solved, and he would add new crises to himself. Wouldn't that be asking for trouble?

With this idea in mind, Zuo Feng had even gradually forgotten the vague connection between himself and Duobao Pavilion.

I never expected that I would meet someone from Duobao Pavilion before entering the city when I came to Weicheng this time. Zuo Feng made a decision after a little thought, and said with a bright smile on his face.

"Is the Duobao Trading House mentioned by the old man the famous Duobao Pavilion?" Although Zuo Feng was asking, he obviously knew the answer.

But what surprised Zuo Feng was that the old man, who was originally smiling, suddenly became gloomy after hearing Zuo Feng's words, and there was a hint of vigilance and alertness in his eyes when he looked at Zuo Feng.

"What is your relationship with Duobao Pavilion?" The previous politeness disappeared, replaced by a hint of obvious hostility.

Feeling puzzled, he didn't know what he had just said wrongly, but Zuo Feng reacted quickly and said immediately, "I think the old man has some misunderstandings. Our Kang family is now vigorously developing alchemy. It is impossible for all kinds of medicinal materials to be grown by ourselves, and the finished drugs will be sold in exchange for other resources.

This purchase and sale is not a small amount. It is impossible for our Kang family to do these things directly. There are more than a dozen long-term cooperative trading houses. Duobao Pavilion is definitely among the top ten in the Xuanwu Empire. Naturally, there will be intersections between them. I just don't know why the old man has this question?"

Seeing that the old man has a special attitude towards Duobao Pavilion, Zuo Feng immediately changed to a more neutral statement, neither showing too close to Duobao Pavilion, nor deliberately severing the connection between them.

After hearing what Zuo Feng said, the old man's expression was obviously relieved, and he said calmly, "If that's the case, then we can still cooperate. After all, our Duobao Trading House also needs big customers like the Kang family, but I hope you don't confuse us with Duobao Pavilion."

Slightly stunned, although he had guessed before that the old man in front of him had a conflict with Duobao Pavilion, but he didn't know what the specific situation was.

The old man snorted heavily, and then said, "This Duobao Pavilion was originally a trading house. With the continuous development and growth, its ambitions began to expand and gradually expanded outward. It even occupies an important position in our Ye Lin Empire. They are present in all the main cities and county cities."

As Zuo Feng listened, he had already noticed that the other party mentioned "our Ye Lin Empire" in his words just now. Normal trading houses do not have imperial boundaries, especially large trading houses have to cross two or even several empires to exchange what they have to complete transactions.

But the old man in front of him obviously has a tendency. If we infer the identity of this old man, it is very likely that he is not as simple as the head of the trading house.

The old man continued to say, "It would be fine if the Duobao Pavilion only developed in other places, but later on, it actually extended its hand to Xinxu County. It is simply wishful thinking to want to share a share of the empire's treasure land. Although they initially used some special forces and means to establish the Duobao Pavilion, there is no Duobao Pavilion in Xinxu County now, and there is only the current Duobao Trading House."

The old man's excited words, Zuo Feng listened carefully and analyzed the meaning of his words. Although he could not understand the ins and outs of the matter, Zuo Feng had already figured it out. The old man in front of him may have a subtle connection with the Ye Lin Empire.

'I didn't expect that the Duobao Trading House in Xinxu County no longer belonged to the Duobao Pavilion in the hands of Mr. Zhong, and I think they must have used some despicable means to take the Duobao Pavilion from Mr. Zhong.

In this case, I don't need to worry about anything. After entering the city, I need an identity to show up, and the Duobao Trading House is a very good choice. Even if I get into trouble in the end, as the foreign affairs steward of Duobao Pavilion, I have done my part. ’

Zuo Feng was secretly calculating, but he showed a warm smile on his face, and whispered, "This is the first time for me to go out to do business, and I am lucky to meet you. If this transaction goes well, I believe that our Kang family will definitely trade with Duobao Trading House for a long time in the future."

When the old man heard Zuo Feng say this, he was immediately delighted, and at the same time enthusiastically pulled Zuo Feng's arm and asked about some specific materials and medicinal materials needed.

The old man focused on Zuo Feng. It was obvious that Zuo Feng was the leader among the few people, but he didn't notice the strange expression of the person behind him.

Shu Zai still had less contact with Zuo Feng, while Amber and Nifeng knew him better. Just when Zuo Feng showed his full white teeth and a bright smile, they both felt a chill enveloping their bodies at the same time, and that feeling was even colder than the weather in Xinxu County.

Based on their experience, once Zuo Feng showed such an expression, he must be thinking about cheating people. The old man in front of him was still unaware of this, and even pulled Zuo Feng very enthusiastically, as if he was afraid that this super customer would be robbed by someone accidentally.

When it comes to buying materials for refining medicine, even the shopkeepers of some small trading houses cannot compare with Zuo Feng. Although Zuo Feng looks young, he has a prominent title. He is the youngest and most difficult person in the history of the Xuanwu Empire to win the competition and become a "medicine child".

His ability and potential in refining medicine were personally affirmed by Yao Xun. In addition to the refining skills of the Yao family, Zuo Feng also obtained the part of the refining skills left by Ning Xiao in the nano crystal. The level of refining skills is not only reflected in refining medicine, but also very important for the ability to identify medicines.

Now facing the old man's questions, Zuo Feng doesn't even need to think too carefully. He casually calls out a string of medicine names, which has made the old man happy and more certain of Zuo Feng's identity as a member of the Kang family.

The young man in front of him looked no more than 20 years old, but many of the medicinal herbs and materials he mentioned were high-grade goods that could only be used to refine "pills". And from the property configuration, it was obviously a combination of several drugs that would only appear in the refining of medium-grade and high-grade pills. These old men could judge through years of experience.

The old man in front of him originally wanted to make a name for himself in this Duobao Trading House. Now, by chance, he ran into a "big customer" at the city gate. Even if Zuo Feng wanted to leave, he might not be willing to leave.

Everyone followed the team and moved forward slowly, and they were getting closer and closer to the city gate. On the surface, Zuo Feng was still very calm. While saying the name of the goods he wanted to buy, he pretended to ask the price in a tentative manner.

The old man was very shrewd. Unless it was some items that could be seen everywhere in the market, he would immediately quote the price. Other rare varieties were all evasive, and he obviously wanted to find a suitable opportunity to discuss in detail.

The team in front of the city gate was not moving fast, but it was definitely not slow. It was moving forward at a fixed speed. Zuo Feng was always on guard. If he found anything unusual, he would flee immediately. Although the entry inspection was not particularly strict, there were few exceptions.

Especially when approaching the city gate, Zuo Feng found that everyone entering the city would take out a small dark brown sign. After seeing everyone take out the small brown sign, Zuo Feng's heart sank.
