Rivers and lakes rich man

Chapter 71 The Elixir
The incompetence of the officers and soldiers was incompetent, Fang Jing knew very well in his heart that the imperial court would definitely make a big statement about this matter, and definitely announce it to the world with a great victory.

The imperial court will do this, but it can be understood from Wu Qisheng's reaction.

Facing pirates, all these years have been bad news, how can there be any good news?

A few years ago, there were sporadic reports of good news about how many pirates had been killed. After the last investigation, it was all local officers and soldiers who killed civilians and pretended to be pirates.

After killing a group of people, such things seem to have disappeared, but the good news of killing pirates is almost gone.

All that came was news of looting by pirates and the rout of officers and soldiers.

The court still needs a piece of good news to boost everyone's morale.

Even if a huge price is paid this time, the imperial court will regard this as a great victory.

Wu Qisheng didn't stay with Fang Jing for long, he didn't go back to Baishui County, he went directly to Fucheng.

He still attaches great importance to respecting each other.

"This is the news you got?" Fang Jing frowned slightly after hearing Zijuan's report.

"Young master, it's hard to tell whether the elixir is true or not. There are already a lot of people from the rivers and lakes in the city today." Zijuan said.

Huang Xingjun once mentioned that there were gods descending to earth 2000 years ago. It is impossible to confirm whether this is true or not. Huang Xingjun just regarded this as a legend, which is not credible.

But there have always been rumors about immortal treasures, even if no one has found them for so many years, once people in the world hear rumors of immortal treasures, they will go crazy to find them.

"Master, this matter is unbelievable." Huang Zhenjun said, "There is no fairy treasure. It has been so many years, and I have never heard of anyone getting it. However, whether this treasure exists or not, it has a great impact on us. Qingshan County Well, now we have to include that Baishui County has just undergone a major cleansing, and now there is an influx of these people from the rivers and lakes, which will cause us a lot of trouble. Maybe those pirates will take advantage of this opportunity to sneak in, and it will be difficult for us to guard against."

Fang Jing is now Deputy Qianhu, and he is responsible for protecting the safety of the two counties.

Everyone in these rivers and lakes is lawless, and the gathering of so many people is definitely a disaster for the local people.

The martial arts guards in other places may not care about this, but they can't let these people in the rivers and lakes mess around.

"Elixir? Does it really have that effect?" Fang Jing asked.

"Young master?" Huang Xingjun was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that the young master didn't seem to listen to what he said so much. Could it be that he also believed in this fairy treasure?
"Old Huang, I know your worries well. It's okay to talk about the elixir now, right?" Fang Jing laughed and said, "Didn't someone really get the elixir?"

These words made Huang Xingjun silent for a while, and said: "There is such a pill. I heard about it a few decades ago. It can indeed extend the life of a person with a limited number of years. But in my opinion, That’s all in the name of someone pretending to be an immortal, and the so-called elixir is just an extremely rare life-extending elixir.”

"So, whether it is related to immortals or not, there is still a possibility that this immortal treasure, oh, the elixir is real." Fang Jing laughed, "Extending lifespan, this is a powerful elixir."

Fang Jing was indeed a little surprised, he had 'borrowed' so many exercise secrets back then, and he was also involved in these alchemy recipes.

He can refine a lot of potions for enhancing power and healing potions.

He is proficient in alchemy, but there is still some gap compared with the real alchemy master.

After all, his main thought before was not on alchemy.

He really didn't know there was such a elixir that could prolong the lifespan of people who were dying.

So he is still very curious about the 'elixir' rumored in the arena.

Being able to live a few more years is simply irresistible to those whose time is approaching.

"Young master, let's think about how we face these people in the rivers and lakes. If they cause trouble, it will be difficult for us to deal with it." Ziyan worried, "Young master has just been promoted to deputy thousand households. If something happens here, say Maybe someone above has an excuse to take away your post of Deputy Thousand Household."

Ziyan now knows a lot about Han Sen, as well as Gu Qingqiu.

Gu Qingqiu was transferred away, the people behind him probably missed the young master.

They may not attack Han Sen, but it is easy to deal with the young master.

As long as something happens on the young master's site, they will have reasons and excuses.

"Don't take this matter so seriously." Fang Jing said with a smile, "The rumor of the elixir this time does not refer to Baishui County and Qingshan County, but to several surrounding prefectures, and Mingzhou Mansion is just one of them. Didn’t you just say that the person who possessed the elixir has probably escaped to the sea. Then these people in the rivers and lakes won’t stay here any longer, as long as the surveillance is strengthened, if someone really makes trouble, Lao Huang, You act in the name of Wulinwei."

"This subordinate understands." Huang Xing said respectfully.

Thinking about it, these people in the rivers and lakes are scattered in several prefectures. If there are no accidents, they will go to sea soon.

"If these people in the Jianghu are dishonest, then let's make an example of them." Fang Jing said with a serious face, "To these people in the Jianghu who don't know what is good or bad, then we must show the strong side of Wu Linwei."

"Yes."

After Huang Zhenjun and the others went down, Fang Jing thought for a while and walked towards Xu Nishang and Xu Jingwei's residence.

"Recently, you'd better not go out." Fang Jing said.

Fang Jing told the two about the influx of people from all over the world to find the elixir.

There are many people with miscellaneous eyes, although Xu Nishang shows others with his disguise, but there is no guarantee that among these people in the rivers and lakes there are experts who can see through Xu Nishang's disguise.

"Is there really an elixir?" Xu Jingwei asked curiously.

"I heard that there are, but whether this time it is really an elixir or not, I can't confirm it yet." Fang Jing replied.

"Mr. Fang, don't worry, we will stay at the mansion during this time." Xu Nishang said, "You have to be careful too, there might be masters among the people who come here this time."

"I know it well." Fang Jing said with a smile, "How about it, have you got in touch with the silk?"

"How can it be so fast." Xu Nishang shook his head and said, "I still have to visit, but now that the Chen family has fallen, it is easier for me to take over, otherwise it would not be so easy to buy their silk."

Fang Jing knew that Xu Nishang was looking for those big silkworm farmers recently, and wanted to cooperate with them and let them sell silk to her first.

Originally, most of the silk in Qingshan County fell into the hands of the Chen family. Now that the Chen family is gone, these big silkworm farmers are actually looking for cooperation.

The appearance of Xu Nishang actually gave them another choice.

"If you encounter any trouble, report my name." Fang Jing said.

Xu Nishang smiled and said: "I don't need to report, those people are very well-informed, who doesn't know Mr. Fang's name?"

Fang Jing laughed, he was considered a local tyrant.
