"I won't laugh at you... Well, after all, you are the employer."
Gui Tangdong and Jiang Xianchen each took a step back. First, Jiang Xianchen would buy the slaves, then Gui Tangdong would hire the manpower, and finally the insufficient part would be supplemented by the monks of the Yi family.
However, the slave trader misunderstood what they meant and thought that Jiang Xianchen was buying maids, so he introduced the most beautiful ones, and Xue Hengxiang, who caused trouble in Wu Xianguo, was the first one he introduced.
Xue Hengxiang was forced to sit on a chair. Although she was restrained by handcuffs and shackles, those things were transformed into thin golden chains and wrapped around her body, restraining the tolerant clothes, forcibly outlining the lines of her body, matching her one-way Under the light-transmitting black eye mask, the blank and helpless expression is easy to arouse people's interest and desire, so the slave merchants have developed a high price for it.
"I'm curious, what method did she use to disrupt Wu Xianguo and make tens of thousands of local people unemployed?" Jiang Xianchen asked.
"This... It is said that she breeds a kind of poisonous insects and multiplies them wantonly. The demon cloth she weaves has a deceptive luster, but she sells it at a high price outside. This temptress lures it with profit and recruits people to divert it, causing local The workers who spun magnolia were out of work."
The slave trader couldn't continue talking here, and he laughed: "Miss wants to buy it, so why bother with the background story, this temptress is already a slave, and her personality is soft, so it's not difficult to train after buying it."
"But she's very weak in combat. She's a living cultivator." Jiang Xianchen muttered.
"Didn't Miss come to buy a maid?" The slave trader patted his head, "Blame me for presuming what Miss means. I'll take Miss to see a capable slave right now."
"Wait a minute," Jiang Xianchen looked at Gui Tangdong with narrow eyes, "shall I buy you and give it to you?"
Chapter No.17 Recruiting people
Gui Tangdong has already figured out what happened to Xue Hengxiang from the slave trader's introduction. In short, the textile industry in Wuxian Kingdom itself is relatively backward, and the things produced from kapok wadding are passable, but not high-grade.
Xue Hengxiang introduced advanced technology from the Central Plains and tried to promote it locally. She may have good intentions, because the grade of silk is much higher, and making this stuff is obviously more profitable than keeping kapok wadding.
But she forgot two things: First, cutting off a person’s wealth is like killing one’s parents. Her silk industry will quickly destroy the kapok textile industry that has formed a stable interest group, and these people are not good men and women. If someone If you want to overtake on a technical curve, the best way is to smash the person and technology to pieces;
Second, the rating and pricing power of silk is completely in the hands of the Four Seasons Palace, and the Four Seasons Palace is best at using silk and tea as a pioneer to break into the target market, form a monopoly and then radiate other industries. After completing economic colonization , and then from the economic radiation administration, military, people's livelihood and other aspects.
People cannot refuse silk and tea, so in order to resist the economic colonization of the Four Seasons Palace, Fangguo like Wuxian Kingdom simply refuses the inflow of silk and does not allow its citizens to drink tea, as long as people do not wear silk clothes and drink tea The soaked water can conform to the wishes of King Wuxian, and invisibly resist silk and tea.
Once Xue Hengxiang starts her fortune-making experience, it won't be long before Wu Xianguo's demand for silk will skyrocket irreversibly, and the market she has worked so hard to open will be used as a wedding dress for the Four Seasons Palace.
Therefore, Wu Xianguo acquiesced to the kapok industry stakeholders to stigmatize Xue Hengxiang and destroy her industry.Xue Hengxiang was wrong, she was just a technical talent in the wrong place.
Gui Tangdong was extremely thirsty for talents, so his eyes wavered a little, and Jiang Xianchen saw it.He looked at Jiang Xianchen, but Jiang Xianchen chatted with the slave trader, saying that his guard boss was not young, and wanted to buy a beautiful and docile wife for him. She also asked about Xue Hengxiang's physical condition.
Xue Hengxiang's hearing was not blocked, and she trembled even more when she heard it. Compared with being a maid for a young lady, she might have to live with her for several times to be a tool for a rough, greasy, and ignorant middle-aged uncle to have children. Ten years must be a worse and darker choice.
Seeing the poor woman's reaction, Gui Tangdong knew that Jiang Xianchen's prank had come true, and he said in a secret voice, "I will pay for this slave."
"Heard someone against slavery?"
"Yes, so she will be free immediately. If there are conditions, I will go to Wuxian Kingdom to cut off this route of transporting criminals as slaves to the stronghold of the Eight Gates."
"Xue Hengxiang offended those with vested interests, so it became so miserable, didn't you learn the lesson from it?"
"The reason why Xue Hengxiang is like this is because she doesn't have enough strength to protect her achievements. I know that, so I have been pursuing strength." Gui Tangdong replied.
Jiang Xianchen smiled slightly, and her favorability in her heart dropped a little more. She handed the silver to the slave trader, and the other party summoned living monks to appraise the silver with kung fu, and ended Xue Hengxiang's bondage.
"She's yours."
Jiang Xianchen pushed Xue Hengxiang into Gui Tangdong's arms, and Xue Hengxiang suddenly bumped into a thick, masculine embrace, and her mind went blank, but soon, a cold feeling spread down her back, making her turn her head tremblingly, Seeing Nan Qingxu looking at her, her eyes were soft, and she couldn't find any cold feeling.
The strength of the slaves sold by the slave merchants was beyond Jiang Xianchen's eyes, so she ended her shopping trip regretfully.It's no wonder that those who can fight will not stay here willingly.
After they came out, they divided into two teams. Yun Xiaojing took Nan Qingxu and Xue Hengxiang back. Gui Tangdong specially asked Nan Qingxu not to talk too much with Xue Hengxiang, otherwise it would be easy to be tricked out of information. He himself went to the consultation hall with Jiang Xianchen .
Nan Qingxu would obediently listen to Gui Tangdong's words, but "Nan Qingxu" might not. When she arrived at the courtyard house prepared by the monks of the Yi family for Gui Tangdong and his party, she immediately inquired about Xue Hengxiang's life experience.
Xue Hengxiang is still confused now, but she knows that the fox-eared woman in front of her is irresistible, she is honest about everything about herself, even when she was 14 years old, she tried her best to recall the appearance of the man in the dream for the first time.
In the end, she knelt on the ground and begged several adults with an extremely humble attitude to save her missing family members, including her mother Xuanshi, her younger brother Xue Xuan, and her cousin Yao Zhixin. It is better to be the domestic slaves of the same person than to be caught by the people of Wuxian and sold to different masters, so far apart.
"Fortunately, the person you really want to follow will give you back your freedom soon, and keep you in his life by hiring. If you ask to save your relatives, he will probably help you, because he is Such a fool."
When "he" was mentioned, "Nan Qingxu" had gentle eyes. She walked up to Xue Hengxiang and held Xue Hengxiang's cheeks in her arms. soul.
"what!"
Xue Hengxiang cried out in pain and struggled desperately, "Nan Qingxu" clamped him firmly until the opponent passed out from the pain, and a flame brand on his chest had already formed.
Yun Xiaojing, who had been on the sidelines, complained, "As for it? I'm just a living monk, and I can't make waves."
"Be careful with the ten-thousand-year ship. The more people you have in the hall, the better."
"Is it Gui Tangdong's 'insider', or your 'insider'?"
Nan Qingxu picked up Xue Hengxiang, threw it on the couch, turned around and said, "Is there any difference? Even he belongs to me... Xiaoqing and I, so my own people are his own people."
"You're always right, but are you going to do that to everyone recruited by East Guitang?"
The answer is self-evident, Yun Xiaojing smiled and said: "It sounds like you were so beautiful when you were young, and you were the dream lover of many monks. Even now, there are elders from other sects who can't forget you. If that kid can fuck you, or It is an honor he can boast of being raped by you.
However, being entangled with a woman like you is also his misfortune.Because you have strength, a deceptive appearance and character, and the virtue of being bottomless and extremely greedy, you are more terrifying than your senior brother. Although that person has strength, he is bound by his own principles. "
"Nan Qingxu" showed a disdainful smile, she played with the hair at the side of her temples, and said casually: "Senior brother is not good at this point, so I will not let my cousin become such a boring person."
Just as she was about to say something more, she suddenly let go of her hand, her face and eyes softened, and when Gui Tangdong opened the door and came in, everything was as usual.
Gui Tangdong and Jiang Xianchen followed four people behind them. The first was Lian Jinfeng, a gentleman from one of the 36 Fang Kingdoms. She had red lips and white teeth, and an androgynous beauty. , she is a lovely girl.
Her hair was tied with a green leather head, and she was wrapped in a silver-red jacket with a long black skirt underneath. Her magic weapon—a one-handed sword was hung slantly on her chest, in the open collar, You can see the black one-piece swimsuit, which is the result of the influence of Moxiu culture on southern Xinjiang. Women who work with water often wear one-piece swimsuits that reach to the ankle.
Lian Jinfeng only recently started to work as a mercenary. She was originally a diving sister. With the help of her family's water system skills, she can dive to extremely deep places with her body alone, and gain movement speed, perception, and skills in the water. Four aspects of blessings, including magic power and spiritual power recovery.
Her official job is to cooperate with Zhengdao and Moxiu's scientific expedition team to conduct hydrological surveys in southern Xinjiang. This job is safe and has a good income. It is more than enough to support her mother and younger brother. She can live a peaceful and beautiful life.
However, the harmony and beauty of Sanxiu's family is fragile, it cannot withstand the blow of any emergency. Lian Jinfeng's mother fell ill, and one of the medicines came from the sea. The seafood is still shipped from the area controlled by Zhengdao, and the price is unbearable for a middle-level casual cultivator like Lian Jinfeng.
Therefore, Lian Jinfeng could only come out as a mercenary, and the remuneration requirement was that the employer directly pay the medicinal materials or provide an equivalent remuneration to the medicinal materials. For this, she could do anything.
She felt that Jiang Xianchen should have understood her hint and hired her. Jiang Xianchen paid the 15% handling fee and kept watching the unattractive middle-aged guard.
In order to save her mother, of course she can sacrifice herself, but girls often have romantic fantasies about their first time, and often have unrealistic fantasies about their own status, fantasizing that Prince Charming will come, and fantasizing that they can be better in society. Further, it deserves better.
Now, a vicissitudes and greasy middle-aged uncle is here, he is very likely to use his ugly body to carve memories for her, kiss her pride, play with her self-esteem, pierce her fantasy, and then inject cold and ruthless reality.
Lian Jinfeng wanted to cry, but she couldn't cry. When Gui Tangdong looked over, she forced herself to recall those good times and smiled obsequiously at Gui Tangdong.
Then there is Yin Hongyu, a dog feudal figure. She is short and 37 years old, but her stature is no more than that of a ten-year-old human girl, and so is her face.The most striking thing is the brown dog ears on her head and the dog tail behind her.
She held a golden scepter in her hand, pursed her lips and looked around cautiously, her ears and tail would respond to the slightest movement.
She is a casual cultivator who specializes in traps, especially good at weaving web traps. In addition, she has also learned a clone technique.Unlike Lian Jinfeng, she became a mercenary only because she wanted to make money to support herself and her family.
According to her own statement, her parents are not monks, but she is the only one who is talented. Marriage after she grew up was a huge expense, and the whole family's livelihood fell on her head.
Although she has become a monk, Yin Hongyu has no intention of cutting off her fate. On the contrary, she is very proud of her ability to support mortal family members. If she can, she would like to extend their lifespan.
These two were both hired by Jiang Xianchen. Jiang Xianchen picked and picked them in the consultation hall and hired them according to her own standards. Come on.
Jiang Xianchen himself was unreliable, but he had a good eye for picking people. Both Lian Jinfeng and Yin Hongyu were monks with good character.
The monks Gui Tangdong hired himself were the brothers and sisters of the Wei family. Both of them were tall and powerful, and they both practiced the family's marksmanship. Each of them carried a long spear behind their backs. The younger sister Wei Ziying hangs a treasured knife under her left rib.
Their father was originally a Bingjiamen Nascent Soul monk, but because of his dereliction of duty in the last jihad, which delayed the opportunity of the war, he was tried after the war and was directly abolished his martial arts, expelled from the school, and moved back to the Central Plains. After more than ten years, his morale was finally revived, so he practiced again for decades, married the prostitute daughter of a local casual cultivator family, and gave birth to Wei Wu and Wei Ziying.
Wei Wu and Wei Ziying were taught by their father since they were young, and under the influence of their ears and eyes, they both regarded revitalizing the Wei family and washing away their father's humiliation as their own responsibilities.Although they are casual cultivators, they are still practicing Bingjiamen's training methods, honing themselves through meaningful battles.
If you talk about the place in the world where low-level monks can fight freely, it is naturally only the southern border. Outside the strongholds of the eight major sects, righteous monks, casual monks, and uncommon demon cultivators can enjoy free battles at any time, so the two brothers and sisters came So far, the violent genes in their bones have been fully released here, and they don't want to return to the Central Plains.
Gui Tangdong came to southern Xinjiang three times, and met the brother and sister in the local stronghold three times, and they were very familiar with each other.When they parted in June this year, they even invited Gui Tangdong to their home for a light meal, lamenting that they don't know when they will see each other again.
At that time, according to Guitang East's plan, he would not go to southern Xinjiang for ten years, but things are unpredictable. After half a year, he hired the Wei brothers and sisters for the fourth time. Of course, he revealed his true face to them. And signed a confidentiality agreement with them.
The monks from the Yi family brought a table of food and wine to wash them away. When Xue Hengxiang woke up, there was only leftovers on the table. This book and a contract, you can read it after you finish eating."
Xue Hengxiang knew that she should please the man in front of her who became her husband, but when she opened her mouth, her dignity blocked her voice.Seeing her embarrassed, Gui Tangdong said, "Oh, are you still troubled by Tang Daoyou (Jiang Xianchen's pseudonym) playing jokes?
When we bought you, we didn't mean to force you to be my concubine. To put it bluntly, if I were to buy a concubine, I would never buy you like this, because your skin on your hands and feet is rough, and your skin is not very white... …
Why do you shrink your hands and feet? This is the appearance of a laborer. You should be proud of being self-reliant, and what I value is your labor skills. We will talk about this when we come back. "
Gui Tangdong picked up the straight-edged sword and left the room: "Before that, I'll catch a few little mice and come back."
Chapter 18 Capture
The little mice Gui Tangdong was talking about were naturally the three people targeted by Yun Xiaojing, and now they are scattered in three places.
Jiang Xianchen bought two new "toys" with certain combat power, so he naturally wanted to try the "toys" skills.Therefore, the six people dispatched were divided into two groups, with Jiang Xianchen, Lian Jinfeng and Yin Hongyu in the front, and Gui Tangdong and the Wei brothers and sisters in the rear.
Lian Jinfeng and Yin Hongyu have already realized that something is wrong. They are here to make money and earn medicines, not to get involved in any serious fights, but Jiang Xianchen coldly took out the contract and asked them to do everything according to the contract: the money she gave was too much. In contrast, the penalty for breach of contract is also a pain that the two casual cultivators cannot bear.
"The world of monasticism is like this. In the final analysis, the communication between people is divided into two parts: what can I do for you, and what can you do for me.
Fellow Daoist Lian, how long can Lingtang's condition last?Are you sure you can find a beautiful and generous employer like me in the near future?
You are also Yin Hongyu, you are a trap master, you have no frontal combat ability, and you are timid, you are a doormat wherever you go, your weak and innocent appearance is the desire to seduce people to commit crimes.
So, if you want to realize your wishes, I am your best choice.For this reason, it is nothing to bear some risks. I am giving you the favor, so that you can get what you want in low-risk actions. "
Jiang Xianchen was fascinated by the women's nest at the Yuehuayuan headquarters, and it was no problem dealing with casual cultivators from a few small places. She persuaded Lian Jinfeng and Yin Hongyu, while on the other side, Gui Tangdong also gave the final admonition.
"I have already warned you of the risk. This may involve the internal struggle of the eight sects. I will not die no matter what I do, but you are different. It is still too late to withdraw. After tonight, you will have no turning back." Guitang Dong said in a secret voice.
Wei Wu and Wei Ziying looked at each other, and the former replied: "Even if Brother Gui doesn't come, we don't plan to stay in southern Xinjiang any longer, and there are more intrigues here. Almost every two or three months, we You can hear familiar mercenaries dying in missions.
It's not a conspiracy against them. They have no value in being targeted. They are just used as consumables and consumed in a battlefield that I can't see clearly... Southern Border is becoming dangerous.
So, the two of us discussed it, and after finishing this task, we will go north to Bingjiamen. Hu Xuandong, the true biography of Bingjiamen, was ordered to form a new battle group to prepare for the war that will start this year.
People like us will not be sent to the front line, but there are certain risks.However, my father is still in his prime, and he has added younger brothers and sisters one after another over the years. Even if there is an emergency, the Wei family still has descendants. "
"I wanted to recruit you to work in my territory, but I respect your decision, go and have a look, if you feel bad, come to me."
The brothers and sisters of the Wei family clasped their fists together to thank them. When Gui Tangdong said that, they were not easy to open their mouths about what they originally wanted to ask Gui Tangdong to do.
They have arrived at the Daze City Casino where one of the three targets is located, a casino that is only open to casual practitioners.
Casinos for mortals use games to determine the ownership of money, while casinos for casual cultivators play a little differently, because monks can use various methods to fight for different things, and casual cultivators are eager to get money from casinos. What they need are magic weapons, cultivation resources, intelligence, and even the opportunity to meet important people... In other words, the resources of cultivating immortals have become things that people in this casino are robbing.
"what."
Jiang Xianchen put on a new leather case, and took her two little followers into the casino. The magnificence here instantly dazzled Yin Hongyu's eyes, making her wonder how many traps she had to make to last one night here. expenses.
The two casual cultivators who had never seen the world were shocked by the wealth at first. When they got deeper, they saw some people hugging their heads and crying, some hugged the staff's legs and begged, and some shook the shoulders of the people around them Ecstatic, joy or pain, these lunatics have a convulsive, atavistic expression of emotion that is frightening.
It's like, just like the casual cultivators gathered here are no different from mortals who gamble with money.
"Please, please, let me play another game! I already have nothing in my hometown, woo woo woo!"
Jiang Xianchen turned sideways to get out of the way of the casino staff, and they dragged a middle-aged man with a decadent expression out of the room.Yuehuayuan Zhenchuan commented indifferently: "Actually, he is no different from ordinary people, isn't he? They are all poor people who desire to get rich overnight, and then their dreams are broken here."
"However, it seems that some people are also very happy." Yin Hongyu whispered.
"Well, then we have to be happy."
Jiang Xianchen casually came to the room where the man who had been dragged out earlier was. A woman was sitting obliquely across from the roulette table, playing with a pill in her hand. Acting as a notary and croupier, she came over to check the certificate issued by the casino. , where the woman couldn't see, a golden sundial appeared on the croupier's glove, and it disappeared in an instant.
Jiang Xianchen understood, asked Yin Hongyu to close the door, and sat opposite the woman himself, Lian Jinfeng stood behind her, the magic weapon that she took out from the storage bag in advance was already in his hand——the sword she thrust into her chest obliquely was A magic weapon, but that is just the etiquette requirements of monks in the Junzi Kingdom.
The reason why she still observes etiquette outside is because doing so can confuse others and focus on her sword instead of the magic weapon she is really used to.
"Friend Daoist, what do you want to play?" The woman asked casually, "I like the two maidservants you brought, I bet on a good magic weapon, and you also bet on them, how about it?"
"It can't be done. I'm just curious to come here to play casually. It's still useful for me to keep them."
The woman was a little discouraged. She was pretty, but she was inferior to Jiang Xianchen and the other three, but that didn't matter. The innocence and nervousness on the faces of Jiang Xianchen and his entourage exposed them as novices.
It is often said that novices in casinos have good luck, but that is just the result of artificial pig raising by dealers and veterans. The luckier novices, the more they believe in themselves, the more they will end up with nothing.
The woman who claims to be a seasoned veteran tried a few more words, and after confirming that these people did not have a deep background, she secretly made up her mind that she would ruthlessly kill these chicks who were not experienced in the world and came to the wrong place, and asked them to exchange their deficient resources. Come the growing pains.
So, she chose Leaf Play, a game that was easy for novices to learn and easier for veterans to cheat. What made her even more excited was that Jiang Xianchen didn't even know what Leaf Play was.
After the croupier confirmed the intentions of the two, he brought cards and dice and handed them to the two sides for confirmation.At this time, the woman noticed that Yin Hongyu had stayed by the door for too long.
"Damn!"
She stood up vigilantly, Yin Hongyu stretched out her hand and slapped the wall, the thick netting was sealing the door, and stretched towards the woman, the woman fled to the window, Lian Jinfeng also activated the magic weapon, and the water jet sealed the window.
The woman had no choice but to shine a moon-white light in her pupils, and her figure gradually blurred. Jiang Xianchen reached out and squeezed it hard, and the blurred figure was forced to turn into a reality, and was pressed down on the table by the croupier.
"Which road are you on?!" the woman shouted.
Jiang Xianchen was blurred by the moon-white light, and the woman froze for a moment before she changed back to the image she had before entering the city.When Jiang Xianchen touched her cheek and tore off her leather cover to reveal her true face, the woman shouted: "Senior sister, hold back, senior sister, I didn't know it was you, I was also forced to do nothing!"
Jiang Xianchen took a step back with some disgust, "You seem to be Hua Zaifang. I met you at the outer door. For a while, you flattered me very graciously. In the end, you are not my one-on-one pusher, but you love everyone."
The follow-up finishing was done by the monks of the Yi family. Jiang Xianchen asked them to pack Hua Zaifang and send them to her place, and then left with two attendants to meet Gui Tangdong.
"You are slow." Gui Tangdong said.
