When Zhang Tie's feet slowly left the room in King Guangnan's manor, in the study room of the official residence of Da Sinong Mansion in the Imperial City, in front of the screen-like calligraphy with the word "Guan Zhi" written on it, Han Zheng Fang and Han Yuanhong, father and son, were sitting in the study, drinking tea and talking leisurely.
As the Great Sinong of Taixia and the leader of Jin Quan Dao, the leader in charge of the economic lifeline of an empire as large as Taixia, in many people's imagination, the mansion of Great Sinong must be very splendid, even if it is The floor is paved with gold bricks and the lamps are made of pearls, which may not be luxurious enough. In fact, at first glance, except for its location in the Imperial City of the Great Emperor, the entire Da Sinong Official Residence looks a bit special. The houses of ordinary wealthy families in the cities of Xiazhou do not show much difference. Even the courtyards and estates of many newly-minted nouveau riche in each state who lack foundation are larger than this one. Much more luxurious.
If you just look at the official residence, I am afraid that many of the people who pay the money would not have thought that the person living here would be an important minister of Taixia who earns a salary of 13,000 dan per year - equivalent to a basic salary of more than 30 million gold coins per year.
On a desk in the study room, a small bronze beast-mouth smoke stove was emitting a faint wisp of green smoke. There was no crystal fluorite lamp in the study room, but a few lights on the candlestick. A red, cucumber-thick candle, this is probably especially despising to rich country people with a few small fortunes.
Of course, those who would be despised are those who have never seen much of the world. If the stall owner of Baishenglou, the largest pawn shop in Jinquanfang City, were here, I am afraid that the stall stall owner would not need to use his eyes to see, but would only need to use his nose. Once you smell it, you will be so excited that your face will turn red and you will be unable to control yourself.
Not for anything else, just because the incense burned in the animal mouth cigarette burner in the study is the most precious gold-loving incense in the world.
Xijinxiang does not come from the ground, but from a special place in the Earth Yuan Realm. After the ancient demon whale living in the water died, its fat bones and blood were soaked in the water for hundreds of millions of years and if it was lucky enough to survive, the fat in the . Just like fossils, they can produce a little bit of raw material for the incense of gold.
The function of Xijinxiang is to refresh the mind. This so-called refreshing is definitely not the same as what ordinary people call refreshing. It is a real "refreshing" - just smell the fragrance of Xijinxiang. It can make people's mental power grow slowly in the long-term exposure, and its awakening is not just a simple awakening, but it can keep people's brain active and awake, and at the same time, it can also resolve many factors that can affect the brain's nerve function. And the negative effects of normal thinking such as hypnosis and other mysteries and negative suggestions in the subconscious mind.
Above the court hall of Taixia Palace. Xijin Incense was the incense that Emperor Xuanyuan would burn in the Ziji Hall when he held court meetings.
The reason why this incense is named Xijinxiang is directly derived from the price of Xijinxiang.
One gram of gold incense costs tens of thousands of gold coins. This is the incense of cherishing gold.
The price of the Xijin Incense burning in this seemingly ordinary small study room every minute is enough to buy the same as the current one in any place in Taixia except Xuanyuan Hill. A mansion of the same size as Da Sinong's official residence, also equipped with a large number of servants and maids.
The candles burning in the study are also not ordinary things, but top-quality Yuan wax that also has special effects. Many people may have never even heard of the word Yuan wax.
The so-called wealth does not mean being surrounded by gold and jade, but comes from being ordinary. The so-called pear blossom courtyard is full of moonlight, and the catkins pond is gentle with breeze - this is the wealthy style pursued by Taixia's rich and distinguished families with rich heritage. As for the wealthy style in the Western Continent and other subcontinents, which is eager to carve and paint gold bricks and stick them on the ground, in Taixia, they are despised by the real wealthy families. Except for a few occasions and places, there are generally not many in Taixia. Rich families will like this style.
The night wind blew through the lotus pond outside the study, causing the autumn waves on the lotus pond outside to rise. At the same time, it also caused the candles in the study with the open window to sway twice. As the light of the candles swayed, the people who were drinking tea and talking in the study were The elongated figures of the two people were reflected on the white walls of the study. It was twisting and shaking, and had an inexplicable weird smell.
Han Yuanhong has been here for more than ten minutes. During this time, Xi Jinxiang in the study has consumed all the wealth. You can already buy ten such manors in other places, which is enough to make people stupefy, but neither of the two people in the room care about this, as if what is burning in the mouth of the bronze beast in the study is not the incense of cherishing gold. But it is like straw and straw dried in the fields in the countryside.
"... So what happened at Qianmen in Jinquanfang City today was not deliberately provoked by others against our Han family!"
The person who spoke was Han Zhengfang, the chief minister of Taixia. When he spoke, Han Zhengfang had just taken a sip of tea. The expression on his face was very indifferent, but he didn’t know whether it was out of habit or caution. The father and son were in the study room. When drinking tea, they actually used the knight's voice transmission technique to talk directly. In this way, people in the distance looked at the father and son as if they were sitting and chatting with the study window open. Everything was aboveboard, but in fact , even if there is a knight standing at the door of the study, it is impossible to hear what the two people are communicating.
"I have seriously asked Lanster today. He is a witness at the scene and the only one who survived. According to his honest confession, it was indeed an accident that they met Cui Li and the princess of Guangnan King outside Qianmen today. , because the road outside Qianmen was too congested, he saw Cui Li and Bai Suxian getting off the car and walking to Qianmen. The first person to use language to provoke him on the road was also a guard next to Sri Seth. Outside Qianmen , Sri Seth and a guard next to him also wanted to deliberately create a little friction and take advantage of Bai Suxian because they saw that Bai Suxian was beautiful and crowded!" In front of his father, they were doing it during the day. The imposing Han Yuanhong at the door looked very honest. When he spoke, he lowered his eyes slightly and looked at the teacup in front of him, as if a flower could grow from the teacup, "It's Orr The people from his empire were the first to provoke, but none of them expected that the person they provoked was actually a knight, and beside that knight, there was an even more terrifying earth knight. Lanster said that before Cui Li took action, they No one felt the aura of the Earth Knight on Cui Li, and the same was true on Bai Suxian. She felt like an ordinary woman, so Sri Seth became bold... "
"As long as it is not a trap set up by someone, it will be fine if a few vulgar barbarians die. This is their own death. As long as they learn some secret techniques, is it difficult for an earth knight to hide his aura? A princess of Taixia Palace Is it strange that there are two pieces of alchemy equipment that hide the aura among the accessories on the body? The only blame for this matter is the vulgarity and blindness of a few barbarians. You should not dwell on this matter any longer, since the matter has already involved Guangnan. Princess of the Royal Palace, based on my understanding of King Guangnan, these people from the Orqi Empire may not be able to leave Taixia alive. The barbarian killers sent by the Guangnan Palace to deal with them are probably on their way now. !" A faint smile and disdain appeared on Taixia Da Sinong's face.
"Are we going to send these people out of the Orqi Empire?"
"No, these people are just small characters. They don't know important things. Just die. It's unwise for us to confront the Guangnan Palace for such a few small fish and shrimps. It will also cause a lot of trouble." Tingwei's Mansion has already intervened in this matter, so we will stand on the side of Taixia. Therefore, if necessary, you can secretly assist the people sent by Guangnan Prince's Mansion to complete this matter smoothly. Done, do you understand what I mean?"
"Understood!" In just a few words between father and son, the fate of the group of people from the Orqi Empire who had just been expelled from Xuanyuan Hill, and the knight who was lucky enough to survive today, was already decided. Yesterday, The distinguished guests of Jinquanfang City were thrown out today like a few wild dogs that had just crawled out of the pit. There was even a knight among them. Neither the Han family nor his son felt any pity. , and I don’t think there’s anything wrong with what I did.
"These barbarians will die if they die, but the Guangnan Palace may still spread their anger to the Crescent Subcontinent. We betrayed King Guangnan in Taixia to save face, but we must keep the Orqi Empire. , this can be regarded as an exchange. If the Guangnan Palace sends people to the Orqi Empire to overthrow the Orqi Empire’s royal family, some of our previous transactions with the Orqi Empire’s royal family may be found out. Those large amounts of high-grade crystals are reminiscent of the Blood Sea Divine Pool. The Tingwei Mansion in Taixia is now searching the world for all clues related to the Blood Sea Divine Pool like wild wolves smelling the smell of blood. It’s not a good thing to attract the wolf’s attention to the Crescent Subcontinent!”
"I was a little reckless today. I came to the rescue too early. It might make people think of something..." Han Yuanhong said with a guilty look on his face.
"It's not your fault. Judging from the intelligence, that Cui Li is indeed not of the same generation. Bai Suxian's background is indeed worrying, not to mention the intervention of Tingwei..." Han Zhengfang took another sip of water, " As for Cui Li, as long as he leaves Xuanyuan Hill, we will use all the means of Jin Quan Dao to keep a close eye on him. This person can advance from a black iron knight to an earth knight in the ruins of the temple in just a few years. , there must be some unknown secret technique in his body, or he must have obtained some extraordinary secrets. I am a little interested in his secret techniques and secrets... "
"Father said Cui Li controls the cycle of purgatory?" Han Yuanhong's eyes flashed.
"If this person wants to master the reincarnation of purgatory, he will definitely not be able to pass the level of Guan Qianzhong in the Earth Yuan Realm. Since this person has passed the level of Guan Qianzhong and successfully obtained the fiefdom, then it will not be the level of reincarnation of purgatory..." (.)
