Lotus Tower is the second best in the world

Chapter 146: Follow the Romans and Establish a Chamber of Commerce

Yangzhou City.

Entrance to South City.

There was an endless stream of caravans coming and going, and the people entering the city lined up in several columns, passing through the towering city gate in order under the watchful eyes of the two city guards.

Li Lianpeng and his party of six, traveling lightly and simply, entered the city on foot.

At this time, less than half a year had passed since Li Lianpeng and others left Yangzhou City. Yangzhou in May was already quite hot, and the city had changed a lot.

After entering the city, the long streets on both sides of the main street were filled with a dazzling array of goods and shouts. Liang Jiu, who was more than eight feet tall and tall, stared at things he had never seen before with his eyes wide open.

"Xiaojiu, what do you think? I'll just say that Yangzhou is lively!"

The taller boy wearing a white shirt asked with a smile.

"Exciting!" Liang Jiu reluctantly looked away, nodded heavily, and said angrily: "Xiaobao, you really didn't lie to me!"

Li Lianpeng, who was wearing a white shirt, closed the folding fan in her hand and said with a smile: "When I return to my house in the evening, I will give you some silver coins and let Xiaobao take you out for a walk."

"This, this is not good?"

Liang Jiu, who was carrying the burden for Li Lianpeng, raised his arm and scratched his head, saying embarrassedly.

"What's wrong? He's rich, so don't save anything for him!" Fang Duobing said, turning to look at Li Lianpeng and seeing him looking at him with a half-smile, he felt panicked. For a moment, he immediately glared over with some irritation.

"Everyone is spending my money these days!"

Li Lianpeng said in surprise: "Isn't this Young Master Fang's own idea?"

Along the way, Li Lianpeng really didn't spend much money. He brought out 500 taels, but now he still has 600 taels left, but there are more and more.

On the contrary, before leaving, Fang Duobing, who was stuffed by He Xiaohui with 2000 taels of silver notes issued by a bank under the name of Tianjitang, had less than 20 taels of silver left in his pocket.

Li Lianhua, who was dressed in plain clothes, smiled and shook her head, taking the lead in walking towards a medical clinic not far away.

Di Feisheng thought for a moment and followed.

Jiao Liqiao sent a message yesterday, saying that the Golden Yuan League had encountered some trouble. The medicinal materials Di Feisheng asked her to find were all stored in the Baoyaolin Medical Center in Yangzhou City, and they were asked to come by themselves after entering the city. Pick.

This is a very rare thing. According to the importance the female devil attaches to Di Feisheng, it shouldn't be like this. The priority should be Di Feisheng.

However, among the people present, except Li Lianpeng, Li Lianhua and the others thought it was nothing.

Although everyone in the Golden Yuan League is shouting about beatings, it has almost disappeared from the world in recent years, and not many things that are harmful to nature and justice have been heard of.

However, there is no shortage of enemies in the world of the Golden Yuan League.

Jiao Liqiao, a saint under the alliance leader, as the acting leader of the Golden Yuan Alliance after Di Feisheng retreated, it was natural for her to handle these matters.

However, these flutes didn't care much. He needed to replenish the energy and blood that he had burned during his sparring session with Li Lianhua that day.

Strive to be in the peak state of his body and practice the "Sky and Moon Crazy Sword" that Li Lianpeng gave him.

Seeing the two of them walking towards the hospital, Li Lianpeng took Su Xiaoyong's little hand, leaving Fang Duobing, who was standing there sulking, and Liang Jiu, who was at a loss, and walked towards the other end of the long street.

It's been a long time since he came back. He wanted to take Xiaoyong for a walk around the area and buy some food as gifts for Qingque Ding Shisan and the others to take back. After a long trip, it was hard to go back empty-handed.

"Hmph! Iron cock!"

Fang Duobing looked at Li Lianpeng's retreating back and muttered, then raised his arm to Liang Jiuyi and said:
"Xiao Jiu, this young master will treat you to a drink!"

Liang Jiu's eyes lit up, "Hey."

……

In the evening, Lotus Lane, Li Mansion.

Bright lights.

The cook hired by the Li family, under the instructions of Qing Que, the head of the house, specially cooked a large table of dishes to serve the master and his future wife.

After a sumptuous dinner, Su Xiaoyong went to the guest room to rest. Li Lianhua and Di Feisheng were drinking tea and enjoying the cool air in the courtyard. Li Lianpeng took the opportunity to call Qingque and asked her to report what had happened in the house in the past few months, as well as what happened in the past few months. The income and expenditure of several restaurants and pawn shops that were previously owned by Fenghuotang.

After several months of cultivation, the rosy-faced and graceful green bird stood in front of Li Lianpeng and reported the property in the young master's name like a treasure trove.

After a long time, Li Lianpeng said in surprise: "In other words, in just a few months, our family has earned more than 1 taels?"

Qingque smiled and corrected softly: "Back to the young master, to be precise, in addition to the expenses of the house in the past few months, a total of 240 and a half taels of silver were recorded. This servant exchanged them all for silver notes. According to the As per the Young Master’s wish, I put it in the treasury’s silver storage place.”

Li Lianpeng nodded, "Yes, yes, you did a good job. I really did not misjudge the person."

He looked at the girl with a blushing face and said, "I have worked hard for you during my absence. Tomorrow I will go to the warehouse to collect 100 taels, which will be regarded as your hard-earned money."

"It's not hard, these are what Qingque should do."

Qingque, who received the compliment, shook his head with a smile on his face, and looked at Li Lianpeng with his bright eyes.
"Qingque is honored to be able to help you, Master."

Among the boys and girls in Li Lianpeng's house, the most capable one is Qingque.

Hearing the girl's words, Li Lianpeng was very pleased. She was worthy of being the one he chose.

"Okay, go ahead and call Thirteen and the others over."

"Yes, son."

Qingque, who was praised by Li Lianpeng, ran away happily.

After a while, Ding Shisan and three other young men came to Li Lianpeng and lined up.

"Son!"

Li Lianpeng looked at the three young men in front of him one after another. The original shadows could no longer be seen on the three young faces.

It seems that in the past half year, the young men in his house have practiced martial arts well. Even Ji Xiang, who dislikes martial arts the most, seems to have grown a lot taller.

"Not bad, not bad. I am very pleased to see you like this."

Li Lianpeng asked with a smile: "How are you doing in martial arts?"

Ding Shisan held his head high and said, "Young Master, you have achieved some success!"

"Oh?"

Li Lianpeng blinked his eyes with surprise on his face.
"A small success?"

Li Ping'an glanced at Ding Shisan and said quickly: "Master, don't listen to Shisan's nonsense. Although we listened to Master Shisan, we have not slacked off for a moment during this period, but to say that we have achieved a small amount of success is an exaggeration." . . ”

"On the contrary, Mr. Huang, who taught us martial arts, has made rapid progress in martial arts. I heard that he has already practiced the skills you gave him to the third level."

Li Lianpeng was very relieved to hear the young man he named Ping'an talking about his words.

As expected, young people grow most rapidly, almost every day.

How long has passed now, the young man who originally seemed to be inarticulate began to speak differently than usual, thinking clearly and becoming much more confident.

After asking about the current situation of the teenagers, he compared the information collected between them and Su Xiaoyong from the Jianghu intelligence network controlled by the Su family during this period. After finding that there was no discrepancy, he came to the backyard.Before they reached the yard, they heard Li Lianhua and Di Feisheng talking about martial arts.

"...I am not as good as you in swordsmanship. I have never heard of the name of that book of swordsmanship, so I can't help you."

Li Lianhua took a sip of tea and said slowly: "However, since it was given to you by my brother, you just have to practice and I can't deceive you. I know my brother's temperament quite well. He will never He would cheat on this kind of thing."

"Lotus still understands me."

Li Lianpeng walked out with a smile, came to the two of them, looked at Di Feisheng, clicked her tongue, and then sighed:
"A Fei, you still don't trust me as much as Lotus."

Di Feisheng secretly rolled his eyes and thought to himself why the leader of this alliance should trust you, considering how long we have only known each other.

However, there was nothing unusual on the surface, and he said calmly:
"You're worrying too much. It's not that I don't believe you."

Li Lianpeng did not dwell too much on this matter and nodded:

"As long as you think about it this way, there is no rush to practice this set of sword skills. I came to you two to discuss with you the next matter of opening a hall."

Li Lianhua asked doubtfully: "Open a hall?"

Li Lianpeng nodded with a smile, "Yes, with your current status, you can open a hall and call it anything, such as Lotus Tower."

"You are the building owner, A Fei is the hall master, Fang Duobing and Liang Jiu can be deacons, and then we will set up several other positions to recruit disciples from outside. As for the age of these disciples, it is best not to exceed 20 years old."

"In the future, we will establish a chamber of commerce..."

Li Lianhua interrupted: "Why go to all this trouble?"

Li Lianpeng said: "This is not an unnecessary move, but a matter of doing as the Romans do... For me personally, it means doing as the Romans do. But for you and A Fei, it means going back to your old business."

Li Lianpeng smiled and glanced at Di Feisheng, who was also frowning, and said: "Today's Daxi Jianghu is full of gangs, a mixture of good and bad. Since we want to do something, we must first have trustworthy people."

"I will provide the money and you two will provide the effort to put up the frame first, and then I will tell you what to do next."

Di Feisheng frowned and asked, "What should we do next?"

Li Lianpeng smiled and said:
"Keep it secret for the time being. After you two have built up momentum against the great masters who established the martial arts sect, I will issue a mission to you."

"..."

Hearing this, Li Lianhua and Di Feisheng looked at each other with a sad face and remained silent.

Publishing tasks is okay.

At that time, he gathered a group of friends from all over the world and founded Sigumen for a common ideal.

But later, when the Sigu Sect became famous all over the world, everyone in the sect forgot their original intentions and eventually reached an irreversible point.

In a life-or-death battle with the Golden Yuan Alliance, the disciples within the sect suffered heavy casualties, and the surrounding sect fell apart.

Now, Li Lianhua was actually quite reluctant to ask him to found a sect or do it with a new identity.

He can be the sword in his brother's hand, killing anyone who stands in front of him who deserves to be killed.

But he didn't want to sit in that position like before.

Di Feisheng didn't think too much.

However, he is still the leader of the Golden Yuan Alliance, and he is unwilling to join a newly established Jianghu sect so hastily.

Li Lianpeng seemed to see what the two of them were thinking, and then smiled and said:

"You two, don't look so sad. Listen to me."

"In this Lotus Building, you are only the building owner and hall master in name. In fact, I am the main person in charge."

"I will establish a chamber of commerce and become the major shareholder behind this force."

Li Lianpeng pointed at herself, then waved to the side, and a stone bench flew by itself. Li Lianpeng raised his sleeves and fanned himself, lifted up his clothes and sat down, saying seriously:

"Let's not talk about Lotus. For the sake of our brothers' career, I will not promise you any generous rewards. I believe that true peace in the world is the best reward for you."

"As for Ah Fei, what you are pursuing in this life is the supreme martial arts, and here I happen to have a way to the supreme martial arts. Although it has not been verified, it is still much better than you trying to figure it out alone."

"What's more, there are still lotus here. You two are among the best martial arts wizards in Daxi. You are each other's best opponent. You can learn from each other and advance together."

"In this way, we can achieve a win-win situation, why not?"

After hearing what he said with a serious expression, Li Lianhua hesitated for a long time and finally nodded.
"Listen to brother."

Supporting justice and eradicating all injustices in the world has always been his lifelong wish.

This was his ambition when he bid farewell to his master and went down the mountain to explore the world.

Now, many years later, his original intention has not changed.

"I just kill people."

Di Feisheng said with a cold voice.

Di Feisheng didn't want to recall the memories of his childhood, but whenever late at night came, he would still have nightmares from time to time.

If he wants to get rid of the shadow of childhood, he must become the best in the world. When the time comes, he will fight back, cut off the head of the real evil ghost, hang it on the plaque, and then tell the world about his evil deeds.

With the sound of his flute, his words are sure to come out and his deeds are sure to bear fruit!

Li Lianpeng smiled and nodded, "The situation over at Dijiabao is more complicated. Once we find Karma Huo, you can go back and take revenge."

After hearing what he said, Di Feisheng's eyes were like daggers, and he glared at Li Lianpeng with murderous intent on his face.
"How did you know about Dijiabao?!"

"Don't be in a hurry."

Li Lianpeng waved her hand, comforted her, and then said: "Before I looked for you, I already found out where you came from."

Li Lianhua's face was confused. He obviously didn't know about the Dijiabao incident.

Li Lianpeng continued:

"Dijiabao is a place that specializes in cultivating and training killers. The children there live a hellish life every day and receive the most cruel training."

"The Lord of the Castle is not a son of a man. He locked these orphans who were even more abducted and controlled them. Then, he forced them to kill each other every day, and told them that among their group of people, , in the end only one person can get out alive."

"Those who do not listen to the castle lord and do not do what the castle lord says will be tortured to death by the most cruel and cruel punishment."

"In that environment, if you don't kill others, you have to wait for others to kill you. People there have no other choice."

Li Lianhua listened with a look of intolerance on her face.

"Boom-"

Di Feisheng placed his palms on his knees, his fists clenched loudly, and his body exuded murderous intent.

Li Lianpeng didn't pay attention, but looked at Di Feisheng and said softly:
"You were the one who escaped from the Dijia Castle in the mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood with great difficulty."
