The sword is the devil

Chapter 610
He didn't blame Mrs. Ajuan too much, he knew that this was deliberately done by the two governments to make it difficult for merchants like them who were not firm in their stance.

It's not that he really wants the Shan country, but his customer base is among ordinary people, and only Shan Guo'an and ordinary people from the country will come to him to buy and sell goods, and people from countries that are too far away cannot come.

Jinxiu is very big, and there are monsters from time to time. It is still very difficult for ordinary people to travel long distances; since the main customer group is in Shan State, how can he cut off his own fortune?This is the reason why the two governments can't understand him, they just came to find fault with him, there are still many such merchants in Zhongqing City.

For a long time, the two prefectures have been relatively open-minded only in terms of doing business, and they have not stopped the business partners of the merchants in the city, and the atmosphere is free; The merchants who trade are very tolerant, but they make things difficult for most of the merchants who buy and sell in the direction of Shan State...

What does this mean?Small businesses and small households like them dare not think about it. They only hope that the development will not lead to an unmanageable situation. For businesses, a stable environment is really important.

"It's okay, I'll go to the shogun's mansion to pay the fine tomorrow morning, I hope they won't open their mouths this time..."

That's all I can say.

Losing the energy to tidy up the goods, the two sighed in the store, and after a while another customer came in. This time, Mrs. A Juan had a long memory.
Going forward, "Please show the verification certificate...Welcome..."

The visitor glanced at her, turned his head and left, "You're too late..."

Ah Juan was stunned again, "What do you mean it's late?"

The guest was not polite, "It's too late to say welcome, I'm here to spend, not to register."

The master and servant looked at each other in blank dismay. Obviously, this was a real customer, who was an unannounced visitor before, and their demands were obviously not on the same level.

"This business can't be done." Zhou Laoxi was depressed.

... Hou Tiao walked out of Yiqu Pavilion, this is already the third shop that rejected him, so there is no need to try again, this is aimed at him, and I just don't want him to understand the real business environment and profit level here.

Is it because they are afraid that Yanmen will raise taxes?There may be reasons for this, but certainly not all.

Private visits on microservices are the first task of a new official. Unless you want to live here and wait to die, you must at least have a clear understanding of the basic situation of the jurisdiction.

He can't get in touch with the local comprehension forces for the time being, so he can only start from the business district. After all, the business district here is managed by the master monks of the Chinese Army Mansion. Now it seems that they have already got the news and are guarding against him. .

Does it make sense?

He can continue to make unannounced visits, but he doesn't think it's necessary; when the status and strength are not enough, he has to be a man with his tail between his legs, but this is different from the past, he has become a captain, and he can show his tail and shake it.

The three mansions of Zhongqing City each have their own characteristics. The shogun’s mansion is magnificent, the Zhongjun’s mansion is extravagant, and the Duwei’s mansion is majestic; at least in terms of architectural style, the Duwei’s mansion is no less than the other two mansions. This is the face of Quanzhen of the Shan family in Pingliangzhou , it is absolutely impossible to be compared.

When Hou Tiao came to the gate of the Captain's Mansion, the gate was closed, only the side door was left open, and there were a few monks standing there gossiping, all of them were minor cultivators who hadn't gone to Tongxuan, but judging from his temperament, he didn't feel that these People are the foundation of sword repair, more like the local orthodoxy.

Sighing in my heart, although Shanmen Quanzhen has occupied this land in name for 200 years, it has not done enough in actual governance.

At any rate, he is the captain of a prefecture now, and he has the right to know some secrets of the sect. He knows that this is a sequela left over from the annexation of Langzhong. The most important thing is to maintain the local cultural traditions and practice freedom.

Now it seems that such conditions are a bit too lenient, and it makes some forces think that they shouldn't have.

Gathering up his mood, the flying sword came out of thin air, bringing out a shrill howl of the sword, and circled the sky three times over the Duwei's mansion. Suddenly, the whole Duwei's mansion boiled.

The middle door was wide open, and a group of monks stood at the door with their hands tied. Among these people, there were more than a dozen monks in the three realms of the sky, and the rest were Cuoer Xiaoxiu, just like the structure of the Duwei Mansion when Hou Niao was in Jincheng.

There are no rules and regulations for the captain to enter the mansion. You can go through the back door quietly, or go through the front door with a lot of fanfare. It depends on the captain's character and temper, and he waits for the villain to succeed and show off his status, so he made such a move, and no one dared to do it. question him.

But in some people's minds, the first impression of the new captain as a young man who was ambitious and frivolous was also created by Hou Tiao on purpose.

Why not pretend to be a fake and let those opponents hidden in the crowd misjudge?

The leader is Su Lingyun, a monk of the natural realm of the Shan Sect, who has been acting as the captain of the Duwei Mansion in Zhongqing City for several months during the vacancy of the Duwei. , has been the backbone of the Captain's Mansion for the past few months.

Looking at the arrogant and domineering young man in front of him, he did not behave as low-key as Sikong Mansion should. Instead, he was as ostentatious as the Chinese Army Mansion; Can't hide the loss.

Of course he knew about this person, but who in Sikong Mansion didn't know?Not to mention the fact that this person single-handedly picked up the deeds of all the cultivators in the Three Realms of the Situ Mansion, and no one dared to say that he could do it himself.

However, fighting power is one thing, hosting a party is another, and there is a huge difference.

But since it was decided by the Sikong Mansion, he could only obey unconditionally. In this regard, the Sikong Mansion's family rules are very strict. If he finds out that he is obedient and violates the law, and secretly trips him, the most severe punishment awaits him.

"Please show your sword talisman, Kanhe."

Su Lingyun has been working in various local states, and has no working experience in Yujing Sikong Mansion, so he has only heard about this person, but never met him.

Hou Tiao took out the sword talisman and checked it, and it was correct. Su Lingyun raised his voice and said, "There are 57 monks in Duwei's mansion, and there are actually 53 monks. Welcome to wait for Duwei to take charge of the office."

With a smile on his face, Hou Tiao walked in with his head held high and his toes high, surrounded by a group of monks from the Duwei's Mansion. He enjoyed the process very much, but the sense of ceremony was not so good, and there was no slogan for the occasion.

If he is allowed to compose it, it seems that it can be sung as: Old Immortal Hou Tiao, with boundless magic power...

This may be the Quanzhen Sect's monitoring team, but it is his Captain's Mansion, where his words are everything and the final verdict.

The ups and downs, life and death, not only the dozens of people in this area, but also the millions of people in Pingliang Prefecture.

"I am Hou Niao, and I will convince people with my strength!"

This was the first sentence he spoke after taking office.
