Chapter 149 Buying a nest, twists and turns

Officials with higher status or wealthy families will hire masters to advise them and share their affairs.

Although the Shen family was well off before, it was still a small family and there was no need to hire a master.

The last time the Shen family hired a master was when great-grandfather Shen Guanye was around.

But things are different now. With Shen Guanye's rapid rise in status and his family's business expanding, hiring a master has become a necessity.

Not to mention anything else, let's just talk about the purchase of the third-level heroic spirit lair. If the family has a profitable master at the moment, he can completely leave it to him.

Not only masters, but also powerful shopkeepers, etc. need to be collected.

Now that he apparently has five heroic lairs, how to open up sales has always been a problem. After all, Hongdong County is so big and the market is only so small, it has long been saturated.

"Leave this matter to me too."

He said in a deep voice, and then he got busy.

Then, Shen Guanye realized that he seemed to have underestimated his father's ability, because the purchase of the lair soon came to fruition.

……

Sheriff's station, office.

With a dusty face and a heavy voice, he drank two cups of herbal tea, wiped his sweat, and then said:

"The matter is almost done."

Shen Guanye saw his father sweating profusely and issued an order.

"Edict·Cold wind blows."

A cold air-conditioning-like wind suddenly blew in the office.

"Don't be so troublesome."

Although Shen Shenghui said this, there was happiness, relief and benefit that could not be concealed on his face.

Blowing the cold wind that rose out of thin air, he said in a deep voice:

"I asked my friend to inquire about it. It happened that there was a house owned by Lord Tianqi in Canglang City. This Lord Tianqi is not going to die soon, but is ill."

"When I was young, I was very strong and brave, which caused the root cause of the disease. As I got older, my body and bones became weak. In addition, my son was a prodigal and a gambler. He had a lot of debts outside, so he had to sell a third-level nest. "

"After all, if the nest is placed there, it won't be of much use if you don't have money to recruit."

"In addition, I am afraid of the revenge of my enemies from the past, and I need strong heroic spirits to protect my family, so I am willing to sell it."

"I personally went to talk about it, and it's almost settled. But in addition to the leopard spirit, the other party also has requirements in terms of money. I think it's reasonable, so I agreed for you."

"If you are in a hurry, you can leave today and sign the contract."

Speaking of this, Shen Shenghui's tone was a bit sighing. This family can be considered a wealthy family. In its heyday, it was much stronger than the Su family and owned two level 3 heroic spirit lairs.

It's a pity that the head of the family lacks the ability to cultivate himself and manage the family. He doesn't know how to plan for the long term, and he doesn't know how to educate his children. He raised a prodigal son, so that he fell into ruin in just a few decades.

I really watched his tower rise before his eyes, watched him entertain guests, and watched his tower collapse before his eyes.

To this day, he still has to pay off his gambling debts for his unfilial son.

Shen Shenghui really didn't know whether he should lament that things are unpredictable, or lament that the parents in the world are so kind-hearted.

Shen Guanye listened with some emotion in his heart.

Come to think of it, when Lord Apocalypse was young, he was also a free and uninhibited lord who was happy with grudges. When he got old, he not only lingered on the sickbed, but also had to wipe his son's butt. It was really unpredictable in the world.

It can be seen that there is no absolute guarantee in this world.

It is said that the Lord of Apocalypse is already an excellent amulet. Once you awaken and become the Lord of Apocalypse, your minimum limit will almost be reserved.

But there are still people who are miserable.

But it's a sigh of relief, business still needs to be discussed.

"Dad, you've been running for several days. Take a rest. It's the same thing if you set off tomorrow."

Shen Shenghui nodded, and then talked about another thing.

"You said before that you wanted two level 3 lairs, so I asked your Uncle Gu to help you find out."

"He accepted your love and was very considerate. He probably found out through the Jiang family's connections that there is a Tianqi leader's house in Zhangchang City that also wants to sell. The reason is similar to the one in Canglang City."

Shen Guanye was very surprised.

He originally thought it would be good to buy a level 3 lair, but he didn't expect his father to get two at once, and in such a short period of time.

What a surprise!
"But I haven't discussed the specific situation yet. We'll talk about it when we get a place."

"Got it. Thank you, Dad."

"What are you talking about? I won't disturb your work. I'm going home first."

"it is good."

Shen Shenghui left the police station, but when he returned home, he did not rest. Instead, he took a fishing rod, a small bucket, a pot of tea, and some food and went fishing.

At this moment, he is protected by the gods of the five internal organs.

Today is different from the past. In the past, no one would deal with him. But now, as Shen Guanye's status becomes higher and higher, the possibility that someone will be detrimental to him is getting higher and higher.

Therefore, even in Hongdong County, Shen Shenghui's body is always protected by the gods of the five internal organs.

Not only for his father Shen Shenghui, Shen Guanye also prepared the Five Zang Gods for every member of his family and the old man, especially Shen Zhizhu and Shen Zhilan, who were far away from home.

Of course, for the time being, Shen Shenghui and others do not have all the Five Zang Gods, only four. What is missing is the Mind - the White Immortal that is the most difficult to produce among the Five Immortals, and the most difficult thing for the Five Zang Gods to produce is the Mind. .

Shen Guanye planned to add them when he got distracted. The order was probably the old man, his father Shen Shenghui, his third sister Shen Zhizhu, his second sister Shen Zhilan, his second brother-in-law He Tingzhang, his mother Anshi and his eldest sister Shen Zhimei.

The old man is at the top of the list because he is too old. At his age, he may be gone, but the Five Zang God has the effect of strengthening the five internal organs and prolonging life.

If the old man has the Five Zang Gods in his body, he can live a long life.

Then, the reason why my father is in the front is because he is the Apocalypse. The earlier he gathers the five internal organs gods, the earlier he can speed up his cultivation. Moreover, he often needs to travel to other places now, and he needs more safety protection.

The third sister, the second sister, and the second brother-in-law followed closely behind his father, not because they were more important or because Shen Guanye valued them more.

It was purely because several of them were in the provincial capital and out of reach. If something really happened, they would not be protected by Shang Kui, Gu Jian Tongzi, and Lady Mo Mei, so they would naturally need stronger protection.

The five five internal organs gods are completely different from the four.

Finally, there are the mother and eldest sister. They stay at home and rarely go out. Huo Zhengyan is always guarding them, so there will be no major safety risks.

Shen Guanye also planned to wait until there were more Five Zang Gods, and arrange for his nephew Shen Jian'an to be protected by the Five Zang Gods since he was a child. Not only would he be able to grow up safely and avoid early death, he would also be able to awaken and become an Apocalypse at a very young age.

All in all, there are many benefits.

Shen Guanye arranged the Five Zang Gods for his family for this reason. He hoped that everyone in his family would awaken and become enlightened ones, so as to prolong their lives.

In the afternoon of the next day, Shen Guanye and his son rushed to that house.

The area of ​​​​this house is much larger than that of the Shen family, and it is not as good as the accumulation of many generations of the Su family, but in terms of the struggle of a generation, it is good to have such a house.

There were many servants in the house, but Shen Guanye could still see some clues of struggling to support himself.

Obviously, the owner's financial resources could no longer maintain this dignity, but in order to prevent others from seeing his weakness, he still gritted his teeth and held on.

The reception was given by the owner of the house himself.

"Chief Shen, Mr. Shen, you two have come from afar. Sometimes you are not welcomed from afar, but sometimes you are not welcomed from afar."

The owner of the house looked about 60 to [-] years old. Because he was a powerful apocalypse when he was young, although he was seriously ill, he seemed to be in good spirits, which was different from ordinary people who were sick all year round.

"Mr. Qin is polite."

Shen Guanye sat down with his father, drank tea, and chatted with Mr. Qin for a while. When he saw that the time was almost up, he got down to business.

"I wonder which nest Mr. Qin wants to trade?"

Coincidentally, the two third-level nests owned by the Qin family are a peach spirit nest and a willow ghost nest.

Peach spirit and willow ghost, there is no difference between the two. It is normal for the Qin family to want to sell whichever one they want.

"I have brought the leopard spirit and the contract, and we can sign it now. As for additional monetary compensation, we can also negotiate. I wonder how much Mr. Qin wants?"

Shen Guanye took out a token and a piece of talisman as he spoke.

The leopard spirit is sealed in the token, which is a one-time rare item, specially made to carry heroic spirits, and the price is not high.

"This……"

Mr. Qin's face showed some embarrassment and embarrassment.

Seeing this, Shen Guanye paused holding the token and talisman, gently placed them on the table, and then said:

"Mr. Qin, what's the problem?"

Shen Shenghui sat aside and couldn't help but frown secretly.

"That's it. Originally, Mr. Shen had already negotiated with me, and I shouldn't regret it. But unfortunately, as soon as Mr. Shen left, a big shot came up and wanted to Buy my level 3 lair."

"I really can't offend this big shot, so, Chief Shen, Mr. Shen, how about we just let this matter go?" Mr. Qin said with a rather embarrassed expression.

If this were the case when he was young, he would not be so arrogant and down-to-earth.

Even if things are unreasonable for him, he will act with a cold expression on his face, as if he is the one who is unreasonable.

But wasn’t it later taught by society, fate, and the world?

Shen Guanye was not surprised. When he was chatting with the other party before, he already felt that the other party was deliberately changing the topic, but now it just confirmed his guess.

He didn't even feel angry.

It's not like he has never encountered a temporary change of heart.

In his previous life, he thought of various ways to help the villagers get rich and dealt with all kinds of people. He encountered too many such things.

After arduous negotiations, the deal was finally settled, but the moment it came time to sign the contract, it suddenly changed.

Don't do too much of this kind of thing.

Don't think that if you represent the government, you will be able to conquer mountains and rivers. If you encounter water and water, everyone will give you some face.

In fact, everyone has their own selfish motives and considerations of their own interests, and these considerations are not necessarily rational.

Therefore, you will still encounter all kinds of messy things.

On the contrary, after time travel, especially since becoming the Lord of Apocalypse, similar things have never happened again. Today is the first time.

"Mr. Qin, don't you know who this big shot is?"

Shen Guanye didn't want to give up easily. If his father hadn't gotten the news about the second seat, he wouldn't have been so anxious.

But now that two level 3 lairs are in front of us, we can be promoted to level 4 immediately. If one is missing, it will be too uncomfortable.

"This……"

Mr. Qin was a little hesitant.

At this time, a young man's voice came from the door.

"Dad, have those two countrymen gone? Mr. Zhao's family is here. Why are you hesitating? If you want to sell it, I will definitely sell it to Mr. Zhao!"

The faces of Shen Guanye and his son suddenly darkened.Even Mr. Qin's face darkened.

As soon as he finished speaking, a man in his thirties walked in. He had a greasy face, dark circles under his eyes, and a sloppy step. At first glance, he looked like a man who indulged in excessive sexual activities and lived a very irregular life.

"Hey, Mr. Shen is here? Is this Section Chief Shen? I'm sorry, I'm not talking about you, but two poor relatives of our family."

The man seemed to have just seen Shen Guanye and his son, and apologized playfully.

"Really? I don't think your family is much better. Isn't this to the point of selling the nest of heroic spirits? Do you still have the right to dislike 'poor relatives'?"

The man still scolded in a roundabout way, but Shen Guanye responded directly.

What he hates the most is bastards, and he also hates people who talk in weird ways. Men have both, and Shen Guanye doesn't want to give him any face at the moment.

This kind of person has no brains, becomes arrogant when he is in power, and cannot be reasoned with.

The man didn't seem to expect Shen Guanye to answer like this. He was stunned for a moment, and after a few seconds, his expression became distorted.

"you--"

It seems like he still wants to take action.

Shen Guanye glanced at the other party coldly, and the frost-cold warrior emerged from the shadow, immediately cooling the man's mind.

"enough!"

Mr. Qin shouted loudly.

Shen Guanye glanced at him and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

Master Qin's scolding seemed to be directed at his son, but in fact it was just to show his face.

You see, every prodigal son does not appear for no reason. There must be a pair of parents who do not distinguish between right and wrong and dote on him for no reason, no matter how well the parents hide it on the surface.

Therefore, it does not deserve sympathy.

Shen Guanye originally planned to give the other party some face, but now he doesn't want to, and the deal will be over if it doesn't work out.

"Mr. Qin, I wonder who this Mr. Zhao is? Who is here?"

"Why don't you meet Section Chief Shen yourself?"

Mr. Qin had a bad temper when he was young. Later, his temper got better, but he was forced to lower his head by reality.

Seeing that Shen Guanye was so disrespectful, his temper became fierce, and his expression and tone of voice were very stiff when he spoke.

After speaking, he turned to his son and yelled:
"Why don't you hurry up and invite people over?"

After a while, a middle-aged man who looked like a butler came in. He bowed his hands to Mr. Qin, Shen Guanye and Shen Shenghui, and greeted them politely.

"This is Chief Shen, right? I've long admired his name, and I've heard before that Chief Shen turned the tide when the bandits were attacking the city and held Hongdong County in his arms. I'm lucky to see him today."

"I am the second housekeeper of the Zhao Mansion. My surname is Li. Chief Shen can just call me housekeeper Li. Our master is the nephew of Mrs. Marshal Hong."

Butler Li was polite on the surface, but he made it clear as soon as he came up.

No wonder the Qin family said that this person was a big shot, but they really didn't lie to him.

Dashuai Hong’s eldest wife naturally refers to Dashuai Hong’s first wife.

Although this woman is old and beautiful, she has been with Marshal Hong through thick and thin when he was in his later years. The so-called "wife of chaff", the two of them are in love with each other.

In addition, over the years, Mrs. Zhao's natal family has also expanded with the expansion of Marshal Hong's strength, and it cannot be easily shaken.

It can be said that the Zhao family is one of the most powerful families in the Bilong clan, and the owner of Butler Li should be the most promising member of Mrs. Zhao's natal family.

This person's name is Zhao Shunzhang, an Apocalypse lord who already occupies a high position in the military at a young age.

Contrary to Butler Li's expectation, Shen Guanye still had a cold face after he revealed the carriage and horses.

"Steward Li, when doing business, it should always be on a first-come, first-served basis, right? My father had already reached an agreement with Mr. Qin the day before yesterday and was waiting for me to come over and sign the contract. Why did General Zhao suddenly intervene? Isn't that right? Isn’t it suitable?”

Butler Li was taken aback.

To be honest, he hadn't encountered such a situation for a long time.

As the housekeeper of the Zhao Mansion, when he went out to do business, as long as he used the name of the Zhao Mansion, everything went smoothly. Wherever he went, he saw good people.

Is it too late for others to fawn over him and rush to give him benefits?
To make him look good?
It’s really been a long time since we met.

Yes, Shen Guanye is Lord Apocalypse, but so what?
Mr. Qin is also the Lord of Tianqi, why shouldn't he still be polite to him and even try to curry favor with him?
Shen Guanye saw the confusion on Butler Li's face and understood why he was confused - he must have thought that he would give in like others.

But how is it possible?

He is not someone who fears power.

First of all, this is a character developed in the previous life.

It is said that the country is easy to change, but the nature is hard to change, and the fundamental things cannot be changed.

Secondly, he also has the confidence.

With the kingdom of God in hand, he will be worthy of anyone.

If others are reasonable, he will naturally respect them.

If you are unreasonable, he will not give you a good look.

Thinking back to the time when Dashuai Hong himself was unreasonable and wanted to forcefully demand the five immortal shrines, he didn't give in, let alone the nephew of Dashuai Hong's wife.

Butler Li finally came to his senses and said with a smile:

"Chief Shen, although it is first come, first served when negotiating things and doing business, before the last step, others must be allowed to participate in the bidding, right? The acquisition of Master Qin's third-level lair is our master's wish."

"Chief Shen, if you give our master some face, he will remember your good deeds."

"No, even if this lawsuit goes to General Zhao, I will fight it. How about you take me to see General Zhao now to see what General Zhao thinks?"

Everyone present was stunned.

The Qin family father and son did not expect that someone would dare to be so disrespectful to General Zhao Shunzhang. Master Qin looked at Shen Guanye as if he was stunned.

Just now he was thinking, why doesn't this rebellious son learn from others?

See how capable and promising they are?
But now, he is glad that although his son is a bad gambler and has no future, his ability to cause trouble is not that strong.

Butler Li also looked in disbelief, and then he finally lost his usual smiling and kind look, and his expression gradually became gloomy.

"Chief Shen doesn't want to give my master this face anymore?"

"It's not a matter of giving face or not, it's a question of truth."

"Everything must be reasonable. It has already been decided, but General Zhao wants to use his status to pressure others and force me to give in."

"Sorry, I don't agree."
