Chapter 325: Everyone is polite (1)
“A million hectares ... That’s a huge sum ...” Tang Wen was stunned. He had been in Chu State for more than a year, but the total of several islands was only about 10000 hectares. What kind of concept was this that the other party would give them a million hectares? Even the entire Linghai province’s land combined might not have that much land. It seemed that this eleventh elder was also quite cost – effective and did not suffer any losses. He was preparing to set up a medicinal herb planting base, and he really had a pillow when he was sleepy. “Reporting to the city Lord, I think cloud fog City is more suitable.” Zhou Quan said. “Where is cloud fog City?” Tang Wen asked quickly. If he was too far away, it wouldn’t be easy to carry out his herbal medicine plan. “Not far. It’s only a few hundred thousand miles away from our Xuanwu city.” Wan Fuyuan, the first elder, let out a hollow laugh. “Hundreds of thousands of miles, that’s so far, why would I bring it here?” Tang Wen almost choked with anger. “Hehe, that place doesn’t belong to our Xuanwu city. It’s under the jurisdiction of another city. However, they gave our land to us. Although that place belongs to you now, the surrounding area is all owned by other families. When doing things in other people’s territory, one had to look at other people’s face. I heard that the city Lord of that place is not easy to serve, he’s a fierce man, unlike our city Lord who is so gentle. ” Xixi Heluo said. “Can we change the location? for example, somewhere close to our Xuanwu city. That way, it will be more convenient for me to go back and forth.” Tang Wen said. “There’s a place called ‘hundred spirit city’. It’s the closest to our Xuanwu city, only three thousand miles away. ” Zhou Quan said. “That place won’t do.” Wan Fuyuan said. “First elder, this is for elder Tang. When the time comes, we’ll be able to buy things at a cheaper price.” Xi Kongming said. “At that time, you didn’t give it to me when I wanted it. Later, elder Zhao also wanted it, but you didn’t give it to him. Since no one is willing to give it, then no one should get it. ” Wan Fuyuan said with a long face. “Right, even if it rots, let it rot on the ground.” Zhao Gong said. “At that time, we wanted everyone to say no. Since we said so, didn’t we come to a decision later?” Xixi Heluo said. “I think there’s a decision. It seems like whoever wants it has to pay 500000 upper spiritual stones as compensation.” Li Yu said. “Hehehe, elder Tang, if you really want it, you can use your bathroom to pay for it. We’re all members of the elders ‘Council, so let’s not charge them so much. I’ll just take it down to four hundred thousand upper grade spirit stones. ” Xi Kongming laughed drily. Tang Wen understood now. It turned out that these old guys had set a trap for him, and their purpose was to get the light in his bathroom. ” 300000, not one more. I’ve already lost so much money that I don’t even have my pants. If this goes on, my sumei supermarket will have to close down. At that time, if you want to continue obtaining goods from the dark mysterious domain, you won’t have a landlord to come. Even if you don’t have gas, you can’t use it. There’s also electric spiritual energy and so on. ” Tang Wen gritted his teeth and said. “Let’s compromise. Three hundred and fifty thousand will do. ” Wan Fuyuan touched his chin and said. “It’s decided then. Elder Tang, you’ve gained a lot of benefits. The hundred spirit city is not far from Xuanwu city, so it’s worth it. ” Xi Kongming said. “Alright, since the city Lord has said so, I can only accept it. However, you’ll have to give me the remaining 65 upper spiritual stones first. Otherwise, I won’t be able to go to the dark mysterious domain to restock. ” Tang Wen nodded gloomily. “Here!” Xi Kongming slammed the table and set the time. After the meeting was over, Tang Wen went to the accountant’s room to collect his spirit stones and silver. The dozens of Sensei in the accountant’s room stood up immediately and the eleventh elder shouted. He knew that these fellows were so enthusiastic because he had become a core elder. Core and non – core were two completely different things. Only the core elders had the real decision – making power. Even the benefits were frightening. The moment he became a core elder, he was given a city with an area of a million hectares. Of course, there were also other benefits, such as a luxurious mansion and a frightening salary. There were tens of thousands of high – grade spirit stones in a year, and there was no shortage of beautiful women. Tang Wen had earned a fortune from the cost of the bathroom lights. It was basically negligible and could be exchanged for with a few hundred top grade spirit stones. After receiving the Spirit stones, Tang Wen turned around and entered the city Lord’s house. “Elder Tang, what good stuff did you bring back this time?” The seventh wife, Liu Yingying, asked with a smile the moment she touched him. “Elder Tang, you must have brought some new products, right?” He didn’t expect the first Madam Wan piaoxue to come out as well. Immediately, the city Lord’s wives, including the children, all gathered around. “First Madam, this type of latex pillow and mattress are very good. “And this perfume is not the low – end stuff I sell in my supermarket. It’s a high – end brand ...” Tang Wen took out a Thai mattress and pillow. Every Madam and child had one, and soon, they all returned to their rooms, very satisfied. “Kid, you’re very doted on.” As soon as he entered the house, he found Xi Kongming standing by the door, scolding him with a smile. “City Lord, isn’t this your wife and child? You have to bring a little gift every time you come, right?” Tang Wen replied with a smile. He took out the spirit stones and said,”here are 60000 spirit stones. Please keep them well, city Lord.” “Don’t think that I’ve set a trap for you. ” Xi Kongming said as he kept the spirit stones. “What are you saying? I know that the city Lord is setting up a trap to deal with the great elder. That was because the great elder had also been staring at the fourth elder’s position. However, he didn’t dare to stand out and object today. That’s because he’ll incur the wrath of the masses. Once he’s opposed, all the spears will be pointed at him. ” Tang Wen said. “Of course. In fact, although you’ve lost hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones, you’ve gained a lot. “Hundred spirit city is not an ordinary city. Among the dozens of large cities under the jurisdiction of my Xuanwu city, hundred spirit city can definitely be ranked in the top six. There were tens of millions of people under the jurisdiction of hundred spirit city, millions of acres of land, and twenty to thirty sub – cities of various sizes. Therefore, you have to pick a city Lord to manage it for you. Otherwise, everything will be in chaos. Hundred spirit city is not far from Xuanwu city, so we can’t let it fall into chaos. Otherwise, it will affect Xuanwu city. ” Xi Kongming said. “City Lord, why don’t you just pick one?” Tang Wen said. “In the past, the other cities were basically decided by the elders Guild. However, most of them were decided by me. However, the city Lords of the fief and cities of the elders were chosen by themselves. That’s because that’s your fief. However, most of the elders will seek my opinion. However, I won’t interfere this time. You can choose on your own, and after you’re done, you can report it. At times, the competition for the position of city Lord was quite intense. There are several big families in the hundred spirit city that are suitable to be the city Lord, so, hehe, you still have to accept the gifts that you should accept. Otherwise, you’ll just look down on them and be annoyed. ” Xi Kongming said. “What families do they have?” Tang Wen asked. “Hehe, don’t ask me. You can find out for yourself. This is also a test for you to join the elders Guild. Don’t look at how we’re usually all smiles, if you don’t have the ability and can’t sit still, we can kick you out at any time. This is the need of the situation. Don’t think that we’re all sitting still, but the truth is not. I, Xi Kong Ming, have been sitting on a needle tip every day, and my butt could be pierced by the needle at any time. The Black Tortoise region was not peaceful, and there were many troublesome matters. For example, there were frequent wars with the outer regions and some demons and ghosts. The main thing is that Xuanwu city is often attacked, but you haven’t encountered it yet. Go to the hundred spirit city tomorrow and settle the matter of the city Lord first. ” Xi Kongming said. “Okay, then I’ll go back and give some instructions.” Tang Wen nodded. “Sigh ... I’ll ask He Jun to bring a team of people with you. You’re too weak and always cause trouble. I’ll have to help you clean up your mess often. ” Xi Kongming sighed and called vice – Captain He Jun over to explain. Not long after, He Jun brought a hundred personal guards and followed Tang Wen to cloud clothing workshop. This He Jun was not simple. He was a strong man in the personal guards. His skills had reached the early stage of spirit focus and he was one of Xi Kongming’s capable subordinates. After all, the city Masters that Tang Wen wanted to pick were all in the spirit focus realm. Tang Wen was too weak, so one of them had to go down to hold the fort. Otherwise, who would listen to you? people would kill for power, and when the time came, they might even lose their lives. After he settled He Jun down, Tang Wen went to the back mountain and saw his master, old Gu, playing chess with tu qianqiu. “I heard that you’ve become the eleventh elder?” Old man Gong asked as he played chess. “Yes, they pushed me to the mouth of the volcano and roasted me.” Tang Wen replied. “It’s quite troublesome. The hundred spirit city is not easy to manage. The key is that you’re too weak. We don’t have the ability to help in this matter. That’s because we’re not strong enough. ” Tu qianqiu nodded. “The city Lord asked He Jun to go down with me.” Tang Wen said. “He Jun doesn’t care. He has just entered the early stage of spirit focus. The hundred spirit city was one of the top six cities under the jurisdiction of the Black Tortoise city. The city Lord was in the middle and late stages of the spirit focus realm. Even he Jun was not enough. You have to know that once they start fighting for a position, their eyes will turn red. At that time, they would not give He Jun face. After all, that was their territory, and even a powerful Dragon could not suppress a local snake. Moreover, He Jun was not considered a strong Dragon. For example, Xi Kongming, you feel that he’s quite gentle, right?” Elder Huang said. “I feel so.” Tang Wen replied. “My ass!” Tu qianqiu snorted.”He’s gentle, gentle my ass. He doesn’t even blink when he kills. Once, in order to suppress the city below, he killed tens of thousands of people in one go. ” “More than ten thousand?” Tang Wen was really shocked. “There’s no one good in the elders Guild. You have to be careful. They’re all smiling Tigers who don’t spit out the bones when they eat. ” Tu qianqiu said,”the West’s plan is very big. I really can’t figure it out. Why would he let you join the elder Council? Moreover, the fief of the hundred spirit city is a disaster for you, not a blessing. ” “Hehe, actually, I’m not afraid. At most, I’ll come back after selecting a city Lord.” Tang Wen said. “There are some things that you have to deal with, and you can’t avoid it even if you want to. Moreover, you can’t even pass the test of challenging the city Lord. Think about how to deal with it. Otherwise, I’m afraid you won’t be able to return. ” Old man Gong said. “I have the help of a benefactor.” Tang Wen smiled mysteriously. “What benefactor? What kind of people do you know? tu qianqiu and I are only in the telepathic state. He’s the most powerful person you know. At that time, when you go, bring my insect Army with you, at least we can look after each other. ” Old man Gong rolled his eyes. “Master, do you recognize this?” Tang Wen took out the Tianyu order. Old man Gong glanced at him and was stunned.”Old tu, take a look.” Tu qianqiu didn’t pay much attention to it at first, but when he heard what old Gong said, he also looked over. He was stunned for a moment and snatched the token.”My dear, that’s amazing.” “What’s the matter, is there a big background?” Tang Wen asked. “The Tianyu order.” Tu qianqiu said. “I don’t understand. I only know that they seem to be very powerful.” Tang Wen shook his head.
