Chapter 4395 The frightened Sheriff (1)
Chapter 4395: The frightened Sheriff (1) Chapter 4395: The frightened Sheriff (1) Yellow Mountain County, Ruixiang trading company.
Manager Liu took a sip of tea and looked at the woman in front of him, waiting for her response.
The woman was in her 30s and was the owner of auspicious trading company. After her husband passed away, she took over her family’s business.
Looking at the pile of items in front of her, the woman’s face was also full of surprise, just like steward Liu’s.
After a long while, the woman stopped and turned to look at manager Liu.
“Old Liu, are you sure that young man is an immortal master?”
His tone was very serious, and there was a hint of anticipation.
even if he’s not an immortal master, he can’t be a mortal. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have such extraordinary skills.
Thinking back to his previous experience, steward Liu nodded and said in a positive tone.
“Since that’s the case, this is an opportunity for our Ruixiang trading company. We can’t miss it no matter what!”
The female owner nodded decisively. After seeing these goods, she had already made up her mind.
The only thing he was worried about was immortal master Tang Zhen’s identity. This was not only a great opportunity, but also a risk.
Once he got into trouble, it was very likely that he would be crushed to pieces.
However, if they managed it well, they would obtain a strong backing and would be able to make a lot of money in the future.
For so many years, Ruixiang trading company had been trapped in the county because it did not have a strong backer.
Now that the opportunity was right in front of him, he definitely couldn’t miss it, or else it would be too late for regrets.
“Let’s take action now. We’ll try our best to raise silver and buy enough goods.
Then, he would use the existing channels to sell these celestial artifacts and strive to make a name for himself in the short term.
Once we open up our reputation and have enough customers, we won’t need to pay for it ourselves, and we’ll be able to obtain a steady stream of rich profits.”
After deducting the purchase price of the goods and the cost of operation, the rest were all profits.
For example, the solar-powered table lamp. Tang Zhen’s price was 100 taels, but if it was sold to a customer, the price might increase by several times or even ten times.
The profit margin was so high that it was frightening.
The rarer something was, the more expensive it would be. As long as it was something good, there was no need to worry about not being able to sell it at a high price.
“Boss, have you ever thought that once the business starts, there will be people who will be jealous?
When that time comes, what should we do?”
The female owner nodded and said in a light tone, ” “I’ve thought about this matter. I’ll have to use the power of my maternal family. With their protection, there shouldn’t be any problems in the Gu state.
They wouldn’t work for free and would definitely want a certain share of the profits. However, as long as they could ensure the success of the business, it didn’t matter if they shared a portion of the profits.
As for that immortal master, we must also find ways to please him. If we can pay a certain price in exchange for his protection, it’s naturally the best thing.”
Manager Liu gently nodded his head. However, he was pondering in his heart on how he could please Tang Zhen.
At the same time, the Yellow Mountain county government office also received news that a strange and huge building had appeared outside the city.
After hearing the report from his subordinate, the officer in charge of public security was confused, suspecting that the messenger had drunk fake wine.
“The ten-Mile Hill you mentioned, is it really the ten-Mile Hill Village near Qingshui River, which is eighty miles away from the city?”
The sheriff asked again as he looked at his subordinate who had reported the news.
that’s right. It’s that Ten Mile slope. A city suddenly appeared there.
The subordinate quickly replied and reported everything he saw to the sheriff in front of him.
According to the regulations of the county Administration, they had to patrol the villages under their jurisdiction once a month in order to find problems and deal with them in time.
In the end, he accidentally found Lou Cheng during his patrol and was greatly shocked.
Out of careful consideration, the patrolling officers and soldiers did not dare to approach and observe. They only observed from a distance before returning to report.
This was a big matter, and it was definitely not something that the patrolling soldiers could handle. They did not dare to take any reckless actions.
Otherwise, if something were to happen, they would definitely not be able to escape punishment.
As the sheriff listened to his subordinate’s story, he felt more and more incredulous, and finally decided to take a look.
He had to figure out what was going on with the building first. Otherwise, if something went wrong, he, as the sheriff, would bear the primary responsibility.
With this order, the county soldiers quickly gathered and quickly formed a team of more than a hundred people.
They were fully armed and headed straight for the ten Mile slope.
Such a scene was not rare in Yellow Mountain County. There were dozens of such Bandit suppression operations every year.
Most of the time, he was just wasting his energy.
Those with discerning eyes already knew that the soldiers didn’t dare to fight the mountain bandits head-on, and they even colluded in private.
The county Magistrate turned a blind eye to such a thing. It could be because of the benefits he had obtained, but it could also be because he was worried about revenge.
After this group of people left the city, they traveled for about five hours before they finally arrived near the ten Mile slope.
The sheriff, who was riding on a horse, could see a city in the distance. It was like a small mountain.
my God! There’s really a city!
The sheriff was shocked and angry. He didn’t expect such a thing to happen in his territory.
If this was investigated, it would be hard to absolve himself of the blame. At the very least, he would be charged with the crime of oversight.
However, at the same time, he was also secretly on guard. To be able to build such a city without a sound, it was definitely not something that ordinary people could do.
He had to be careful and not act rashly.
He led his men and slowly approached the tower, finally stopping 150 meters away.
At such a distance, the lethality of the bow and arrow would be reduced to the minimum. Even if they were suddenly attacked, they could also ensure their own safety as much as possible.
Looking at the city from this distance, the more he looked, the more shocked he was. This was no ordinary city, but a military fortress.
If a war were to break out, even tens of thousands of soldiers might not be able to take them down, let alone the hundreds of men he had.
Unconsciously, the sheriff broke out in a cold sweat.
Suppressing his fear, the sheriff shouted, ” the people inside, listen up. I’m the security officer of Yellow Mountain County. Quickly report your background for investigation.
As soon as the Sheriff’s voice fell, there was a crisp sound on the top of the city wall, and then the big flag in the team suddenly broke.
The officers and soldiers were shocked and put on a defensive posture. Many of them were even trembling.
The sheriff was also shocked and almost fell off his horse.
However, he practiced martial arts all year round and was considered a third-rate martial artist. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been qualified to be the Yellow Mountain County’s security officer.
However, the attack just now was so fast that he didn’t even notice it.
He was even more aware that the other party was only giving him a warning. If he had aimed at his vital points, he would have become a corpse by now.
“Quick, form a shield wall!”
Suppressing the anger in his heart, the sheriff jumped off his horse and did not dare to make any more mistakes.
Just as he was about to continue observing, he saw a figure appear on the top of the city wall. Like a leaf blown by the wind, he gently floated over.
It was a young man with a carefree attitude, as if an immortal had descended to the world.
Seeing this scene, the group of officers and soldiers were dumbfounded, and the sheriff was trembling in fear.
Such a magical technique was definitely not something a mortal could possess. It was an existence that he could not afford to offend.
immortal, this is an immortal!
Suddenly, a soldier shouted. He threw away his weapon and knelt on the ground, kowtowing.
“Immortal, please forgive me. Immortal, please forgive me. I didn’t mean to offend you!”
The other officers and soldiers trembled in fear, and some of them knelt down and kowtowed, their faces filled with fear.
The sheriff forced himself to stand up and watched the young man in Black land in front of him. His mind turned quickly and he quickly bowed to show his respect.
Such a powerful existence could no longer be controlled by the laws of the world. The sheriff was an old fox and naturally understood this logic.
I’m Wu Dayong, magistrate of the Yellow Mountain County. Greetings, immortal master.
The public security officer’s current attitude was as respectful as he could be. As a martial arts cultivator, he could vaguely sense Tang Zhen’s terrifying strength.
Perhaps he could crush him into a pulp with just one finger.
One could never offend such an existence, or else one would be seeking death.
there’s one thing that I would like to ask officer Wu to inform the public. From now on, the ten Mile slope is My Immortal cave. I hope the officials will not disturb us.
Tang Zhen faintly smiled and issued a warning to the soldiers in front of him. He had an unquestionable attitude.
