The worst accommodation in West City is Class D, and the annual rent is 360 spirit stones.
The rent alone was enough to make Wang Fugui unable to raise his head.
He also has a virtuous wife and a pair of precious children.
"Bad luck, no one else to blame!"
Wang Fugui carried the big bucket, looked at the bustling shops on both sides, shook his head, and continued on his way.
It's not that he doesn't understand business, but without any support behind him, even if he has all kinds of plans, he won't be able to put them into practice.
All the commercial interests of Lingyun Immortal City had long been divided up by various major forces, and it was not the turn of him, a small outsider cultivator, to intervene.
He was lucky to be able to find this small business of reselling white-winged spirit fish.
Although it is hard work, I don’t earn much.
As long as you are diligent and lucky, you can earn thirty spirit stones in a month.
In addition, my wife helps with sewing, washing clothes, and doing some cleaning chores, so she can earn ten or eight spirit stones a month.
The couple worked hard from dawn to dusk and finally managed to survive in Lingyun City.
Poor couple of children.
He had medium-grade spiritual roots but no spiritual stones to study, so he had to practice on his own at home.
Back then, he was in Qingyun Market and was well-informed. He asked his wife to take all her savings and follow the Chamber of Commerce to retreat to Lingyun Fairy City in advance.
After the beast tide attacked the city, he took the opportunity to run away quickly and finally saved his life.
It is not easy for a family to live well now.
Half an hour later, when I was about to get home, I saw several law enforcement officers at the entrance of the alley.
One of them walked up to him and asked with a stern face, "Are you Wang Fugui?"
Wang Fugui put down the shoulder pole and looked cautiously at the law enforcement officer. He said with a puzzled look on his face, "Sir, I am Wang Fugui. May I ask what happened?"
The law enforcement officers stared at him unkindly.
Wang Fugui's heart was in his throat.
Could it be that something happened at home?
My wife is a steady person.
He has an ordinary appearance, is in his thirties, and is at the third level of Qi training. He is no longer at the age of attracting a lot of attention.
Is someone targeting him?
Since moving to Lingyun Fairy City, he has always been cautious, law-abiding, and never offended anyone.
After thinking about it, I can’t remember what I did wrong recently.
The law enforcement officer glanced at the large barrel beside Wang Fugui and said with some disdain, "Put it down and follow us. Someone wants to see you!"
Wang Fugui felt a tightness in his heart.
"Excuse me, sir, who wishes to see me?"
"You'll know when you see it!"
The law enforcement officer waved his hands, and several of his companions standing at the entrance of the alley came over.
Wang Fugui handed the barrel to a familiar store for temporary storage and followed the law enforcement team obediently.
"hurry up!"
The impatient voice of the law enforcement officers.
"Hey, here we come!"
Several law enforcement officers who came later all looked at him with strange eyes.
Could it be that the enemy he offended in the past is here to take revenge on him?
Since he could ask the Xiancheng Law Enforcement Team to take action, Wang Fugui accepted his fate.
Living a good life is not an easy thing.
But it’s a pity for my wife and children at home.
at this time.
The law enforcement officers in front stopped.
"Sir, the people are here!"
"Oh."
A familiar figure turned around and looked at Wang Fugui.
"Fugui, I haven't seen you for three years. How have you been?"
"Master Chen!"
Wang Fugui couldn't help feeling dazed as he looked at Chen Xuan, who was so handsome, confident and calm in front of him.
Three years ago, when I first met Chen Xuan, he was still a young man with childishness.
Now, wearing the official robes of the law enforcement team, the domineering aura of a superior is exuded.
"I am Wang Fugui, the humble one, and I am honored to meet you, Master Chen!"
Wang Fugui was so excited that he wanted to kneel down.
However, an invisible force supported him.
"We are old friends, no need to be polite!"
Chen Xuan smiled.
"Let's go upstairs and eat. I'll treat you."
"it is good!"
Wang Fugui hesitated slightly.
"Master Chen, can I first report to my family that I'm safe?"
"Let's go, I've picked up my sister-in-law, nephews and nieces!"
"what!"
Wang Fugui finally understood why these law enforcement officers had treated him so rudely. A casual cultivator in the middle stage of Qi training, living in a Class D house, was actually so highly regarded by Master Chen Xuan.
Unable to conceal jealousy!
Wang Fugui is a smart man.
It was obvious at a glance that Chen Xuan was serving in the law enforcement team again.
When we got to the restaurant, sure enough, my wife and two children were there.
The children were wolfing down the table full of delicious monster meat.
The lady looked at him helplessly.
"My dear, they are really hungry."
Chen Xuan smiled, sat down, waved his hand, and said to the law enforcement officers, "You can leave!"
The law enforcement officers bowed and left the box one by one.
Chen Xuan poured a glass of spirit wine for Wang Fugui.
"Fugui, are you willing to come to the law enforcement team and help me?"
"Don't rush to answer, think carefully. I can only give you the status of a sect servant for now."
Wang Fugui drank the spiritual wine in one gulp, tears flashing in his eyes.
"I am willing! To be honest with you, my Lord, working for you is the most enjoyable time of wealth and prosperity!"
He didn't lie.
When in Qingyun Market, Chen Xuan handed over all the daily work of the Xicheng District Law Enforcement Team to Wang Fugui.
He was so proud at that time.
Although he has no position, he is Chen Xuan's shadow.
In the entire Xicheng District law enforcement team, apart from Chen Xuan, he has the most power.
In fact, Chen Xuan didn't care at all.
All the business managers in West City treated him with respect.
"Where are Xiao Yutang and Cai Jian? Do you know what's going on with them?"
Chen Xuan asked softly.
"Xiao Yutang seems to have retreated to the sect with an elder. Cai Jian is missing, and most likely dead."
Chen Xuan drank a sip of the spirit wine and said nothing.
The atmosphere was a little dull.
After a long pause, Wang Fugui said, "Sir, whatever happened to Cai Jian was his fate. You have done him justice! If he were alive, he would definitely follow you."
Chen Xuan nodded.
At that time, I had no ability to protect these people.
I am very lucky to be able to protect my wife and escape.
"Let's eat first! After that, come with me to see Li Ping'an!"
……
Xicheng District Wharf.
A seven-foot-tall male cultivator with a scar on his face was carrying ten large bags of spiritual rice with difficulty and staggering towards the warehouse.
A bag of magical rice weighs five hundred kilograms.
"Why are you working so hard? Be careful not to tire yourself out!"
Another casual cultivator carrying five bags of spiritual rice quickly passed him.
The scarred man almost slipped and had to struggle to regain his footing.
"Ping An, don't worry, take your time!"
An old monk carrying three bags of spiritual rice passed by slowly.
"Thank you, Uncle Zhou."
Li Ping'an replied honestly, and after much effort, he finally delivered the ten bags of magical rice into the warehouse.
After noting down the number, the manager in front of the warehouse asked.
"Still carrying it?"
"Carry!"
I only need ten bags left to get one more spirit bead.
"Hey! Hurry up, we have to go back too."
"okay!"
Li Ping'an came to the dock and filled ten bags of spiritual rice.
This time, his pace was even slower.
When getting off the boat, my feet went weak and I didn't have enough strength, so I was about to fall.
Since being poisoned, my health has been getting worse day by day.
"careful!"
Someone is screaming.
However, a hand firmly held his waist.
The ten bags of spiritual rice that were about to fall were caught steadily by a giant iron-backed mantis waving its golden swords in its arms.
"Master Chen!"
Li Ping'an didn't see the appearance of the person who came, but when he saw the iron-backed mantis, he screamed.
"it's me!"
Familiar voice.
Li Ping'an's eyes were a little moist.
