Luodao is the basis for Luocheng's livelihood and prosperity.
Only by continuously transporting Luodao to various places can capital be brought in and trade in the city developed.
Several major nearby towns strictly censored the specialties from Luo City, which made Yi Jing very hurt.
"I have to meet someone, brothers, I'm leaving."
On the wall of the west gate of Luo City, Yi Jing climbed to the top of the city. In the distance was the place where he once led an army to fight against the Soul-seeking Army.
But now the hundreds of thousands of soul-seeking troops have long since turned into rioters and dispersed like birds and beasts.
Although the military enemies were eliminated, they could not stop Xuanzong and Xie Zong from working together to give him financial shoes as if they had agreed.
Recently, Luodao, a specialty product shipped out of Luocheng, has been returned numerous times.
After asking about the reason, the city-states that traded with it all returned the rice on the grounds that it contained too much water and was not fragrant when cooked, affecting the taste. This caused the people in the city to complain endlessly and rice piled up like mountains.
This made Yi Jing anxious. He quickly called his good brothers and discussed with more than a dozen commanders how to solve this problem.
In the end, Yi Jing decided to use Tianhe City as a gap. Go find your big brother Feng Tiangang.
Feng Tiangang is the sect leader of Jiuji Sect, and he is the unyielding overlord in Tianhe City.
Feng Tiangang's daughter Feng Suzhen is also Yi Jing's adopted sister. Although she is less than seventeen years old, she is already as beautiful as a flower.
Yi Jing first quickly informed Feng Tiangang in a letter that he was going to Tianhe City for a few days.
Feng Suzhen was so happy that she didn't know that her eldest brother Yi Jing was not here just to see them.
Feng Mansion naturally prepared a lively dinner to welcome Yi Jing and wash away the dust. Feng Tiangang called several newly promoted elders in Jiuji Sect to accompany him. The banquet was lively and sumptuous.
"Come on, brother Yi Jing, Brother Feng will give you another drink."
"Uh, Brother Feng. What you said is wrong. I should respect you, no matter in terms of identity, status, or age. You are above me."
Feng Tiangang laughed, "I like to hear this, but in terms of merit. Brother, I can't even compare to you. Brother, you killed Dong Zhuo this time. You have become an immortal hero in Wuhun Continent. Brother and All the elders, as well as your adopted sister, are very proud of you. Just a few days ago, when the news came. No matter where I go, the first thing I say is "I know, my brother Yi Jing." , and destroyed the evil prime minister Dong Zhuo."
"Haha." There was a hearty laugh at the wine table, and everyone took a swig together.
Yi Jing put down the cup and said, "Brother Feng's sword is still young. Brother, I see that your style is even better than before. My adopted sister is getting more and more beautiful, and she is well-off and generous. As a brother, she didn't bring any gifts. She only attacked Jinlan with one attack. I give you the ring as a gift. Don’t dislike it, little sister Wanwang.”
Feng Suzhen grabbed the ring immediately and said happily, "Brother, even if you give me a grass ring, I will be overjoyed. Thank you, brother, it's so beautiful. Daddy."
"Well, good daughter. Why don't you hurry up and give your big brother a drink?"
"Suzhen, thank you, brother."
Everyone drank another drink, and an elder said, "I heard that Lord Yi, Lord of City, obtained the qualification to compete in Kyoto City during the alliance under the city. Later, he killed Dong Zhuo. It can be said that he has made outstanding achievements. As a man of the righteous way, he is a leader of Wuhun Continent. Bai Dao. Xuanzong should give some rewards. Is it possible that they just give you something that originally belongs to you? Xuanzong is too stingy. "
"Hmm." An elder coughed. Yi Jing didn't understand that this was a reminder to another elder who spoke out to be careful when speaking.
"I am here for this matter. You should know that Luocheng's famous product is Luodao. And the quality of Luodao sales is directly related to the lives of the people in the city. This time I come to Tianhe City. I just hope that you will It can open the door of convenience. Yi Jing is very grateful."
"The city lord is welcome. If you can -."
"Yeah." The great elder of the Jiuji Sect coughed deliberately again.
Feng Tiangang frowned, "Brother, I support you. Let's do this. There's no need to say anything. You first send me 100,000 gold Luodao from Tianhe City. I'm used to eating steamed buns from the north. Brother, I still want to eat steamed buns. I really want a change of taste.”
"City Lord, you must not do it. It is one thing to support City Lord Yi. It is another thing to ensure the relationship between our Jiuji Sect and Xuanzong. Lord City Lord, please don't let the small things cost you. The relationship between the army and the army. It is neither an enemy nor a friend. It has been rumored on the road that because Lord Yi did not join Xuanzong, Xuanzong was stepping up the pressure. I heard that Luodao under the rule of Lord Yi once asked the surrounding city-states in need to retreat. But There is this matter."
Yi Jing raised his glass and drank it in one gulp. "This is a fact. That's why I came to Tianhe City this time to ask for help from all the seniors. Of course, Tianhe City is in trouble. I can understand that what I need is not Brother Feng." You spend soul coins to buy things from my Luo City. Instead, I let you open a convenient door to open up the trade route between our Luo City and the Northern Prairie Wolf Kingdom, the Shacheng Tribe, and the Shahai Ghost City. In this way, our Luodao can A steady stream passes through the Martial Spirit Continent and is transported outside the territory. We exchange what we have with the Martial Spirit tribes outside the territory and each gets what they need."
Feng Tiangang looked startled, then smiled and said, "It turns out that I am taking care of my position, don't worry. This matter is on my shoulders. Xuanzong's doing this is really too much. When I have the opportunity, I will go to the police in person. Let’s go to Shaolong Temple. I want to meet the master and talk about it. As a person of the righteous path and the flag of morality on the Wuhun Continent, this kind of behavior is disgusting.”
"I'm afraid that if the master of the sect goes there, it will be in vain. The ones putting pressure on Luo City are definitely not the Shaolong Temple and the Saintess Sect. It is the Xuanzong people under them who consider themselves righteous. The martial arts of the major city-states Soul monks. Shaolong Temple and Saintess Sect are superficially their leaders. In fact, these sects that follow the two major extraterrestrial sects all have their own plans. What they plan to do is lead by claiming to be the right path. The benefits of coming. Whether or not you sincerely support Shaolong Temple and Saintess Sect is another matter."
Yi Jing nodded and said, "What this elder said is quite in line with the current situation. This is indeed the case. Some people are willing to be moral judges. Naturally, some people become the targets of judgment, and I, Luo City, happen to be at the cusp of the storm, so I am naturally pushed to the forefront. Come to the front desk. Fortunately, I, Yi Jing, have nothing else but a few strong bones. The greater the pressure exerted on me from the outside, the more hats will be placed on me. The less Yi Jing will give in.
Brother Feng, you still remember your promise to me to open up a piece of land in the east of the city for me to develop. "
Feng Tiangang nodded and said, "How can I not count what I, Feng, said? Do you need me now?"
"No, Brother Feng, please don't misunderstand that I am here to ask for benefits. I only ask Tianhe City to provide some convenience and allow Luo City to trade with city-states outside the territory. This is just a request, nothing else."
Feng Tiangang slapped his palm on the table, "What do you mean, you clearly look down on our Jiuji Sect. I have decided as the sect leader. Every year, I buy one hundred thousand kilograms of Luo rice from your Luocheng. If you can't finish it, you can save it." I have to support you, brother. That’s it. Come on, do it.”
Yi Jing smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Feng, why bother to stand up for me and offend Xuanzong? I feel very sorry."
"Well, if you feel bad, take some time to spend more time with Suzhen. This child was persecuted by the Soul Vein Needle. He has not fully recovered yet. His spirit is up and down. It's pitiful."
"Dad, what are you talking about? Brother Yi, don't listen to him. I have already recovered. It's just that Wei Wei is a little tired. Daddy, I think I have to go in and rest for a while."
Yi Jing swallowed and said, "Sister, please wait a moment. Can you let me take your pulse?"
Feng Suzhen cheered up and reached out her jade hand.
Yi Jing touched her wrist, clasped it with three fingers, and injected a powerful healing energy. As soon as his eyes closed, it took about a few blinks.
"My mental strength is weak and my vitality is weak. There seems to be an evil spirit lurking in the soul vein. It seems that the legacy of the Soul Vein Needle has not been completely eliminated. But don't worry, sister Suzhen. Brother has already decided. To stay in Feng Mansion Stay one more night. I will go on business outside the territory another day so that I can exorcise evil spirits and heal your wounds."
Feng Tiangang was overjoyed, "Okay, as expected, there is love and righteousness. Zhen'er, why don't you thank your elder brother quickly? With your elder brother Yi's ancient power and the mysterious energy from the Wanfa Heart Curse, I will definitely be able to transform your The injury has been cured. I am so happy that I don’t know how to thank you for your kindness. Come on, Brother Feng will toast you no matter what this time."
At night, with the moon shining brightly in the sky, it's time to light the lanterns in the Feng Mansion and the back garden. In the courtyard below a building, Feng Suzhen had just woken up from a light sleep. Wearing a cloak and supported by the maid, he slowly came to the courtyard.
"Brother Yi, it's probably because you used up too much to heal my wounds just now. I prepared ginseng soup, firstly to relieve the hangover, and secondly to replenish the body. Don't let the wind and cold invade and hurt yourself."
Yi Jing opened his eyes, put down his feet, took the ginseng soup with one hand, and said to Feng Suzhen, "My sister is interested. Hey."
"Brother seems to have something on his mind. Is it related to my injury? You might as well tell me directly. Girls are not afraid of anything, as long as you are by your side, eldest brother."
Yi Jing gently patted Feng Suzhen's shoulder and said comfortingly, "Although the person who gave you the poisonous needle has been killed, Brother Feng has never been able to root out the forces behind this thief." The Yang faction is too powerful. I shouldn’t have told you these things. It’s because, sister, you care about your brother. You want to know what I’m thinking. I just told you to listen. You won’t worry too much about my worries, right? .”
"No way, Suzhen is not a man. She has never practiced martial arts combat skills, let alone mental skills. I just think, brother, you must be careful during your trip to the outside world. I have prepared something. Put on a robe. And a few casual clothes for a new career. Brother, you go to start a trade and work hard all the way. Sister, I wish you could serve me morning and night. You must remember to come back as soon as possible. Sister, I believe that with your literary and military skills, brother, you will be able to make friends with many people from outside the territory. good friend."
