Chapter 139 Qinghe Wharf (Update 33)
Guan Tian frowned slightly and asked subconsciously: "What? There are also your enemies in Shengxing City?" "
No." Li Yunqing shook his head and said softly, "Don't hide it from Guan Brother, our ancestors were in Shengxing City. Later, Shengxing City declined, and conflicts
and divisions occurred within the family. "Our branch was the weakest and moved to the remote Malan City. More than twenty years ago, my father and mother went back to recognize their ancestors. Xiao Yuanzi was born in Shengxing City, and I was also found and adopted in the Li family's ancestral home.
"Little Yuanzi and I lived there until we were five years old, and then we returned to Malan City. Later, my father took over as the clan leader, Xiao Yuanzi and I got married, my mother passed away, and we went through some things, so we never returned to our ancestral home. The main reason is that our branch is too weak..."
Li Yunqing said with tears in her eyes. Although she has no memory, it can be considered her birthplace.
Touching Li Yunqing's head, Li Yuan comforted him: "When we improve our strength, we will go back to our ancestral home. It is not suitable to go back now. After all, we have not been in contact for so many years. Going back rashly will not cause trouble to them." Li
Yunqing Nodding silently.
Li Yuan looked at Guan Tian and continued: "Brother Guan, let's take the waterway. Although the waterway is slow, at least the conditions are more comfortable and much better than walking through the forest." "This is true. You can also enjoy the scenery of Yuanzhou along the way
. ." Guan Tian stroked his beard and nodded.
...
Qinghe City, where three major rivers converge, has more than a dozen river terminals, large and small, spread throughout the city.
There are nearly three million citizens in Qinghe City engaged in river transportation. It can be said that someone from every household is involved.
Qinghe Wharf is the largest wharf in Qinghe City. Water transportation over 800 miles basically comes here.
There are also other piers, but there is less business connecting long distances, so reservations must be made in advance.
Qinghe Wharf is also the place where the competition between various large and small forces in the city is fiercest.
Wu Huohai is a Yuan Zhe who works hard at Qinghe Wharf all year round. He belongs to the Wujia Gang, one of the six major gangs in Qinghe City. Since he was a distant relative of the leader of the Wujia Gang, he was appointed as a minor leader in the gang.
Wu Huohai is forty-seven this year. He is at the peak of his cultivation in the early stage of the Void Realm. His black hair has long fallen out. He looks much older than Yuan Zhe of the same age and the same cultivation level.
Years of hard work left some injuries on his body, especially the scar on his left eye, which looked scary.
Bald scars are easily associated with evil people.
His face looked scary, but his mouth was full of kindness.
No matter how amiable he is, he still belongs to a gang and will do some shady things.
The six most powerful gangs in Qinghe City discussed taking turns taking over the river transport business in order to reduce the number of fights over business.
The scorching sun is moving westward, noon has passed, and it is almost time for the Wu family to help with business.
"Scar, here we come. It's not time for your Wu family gang yet."
A middle-aged man on the dock looked at Wu Huohai who was rushing towards him.
Wu Huohai looked at the middle-aged man and smiled: "Xiao Liu'er, aren't I getting ready first? I'll go to our ship for inspection first, so I won't chat with you. I'll treat you to good food and drinks some other day. Big drink."
Wu Huohai opened his mouth and spoke in a tone that was completely inconsistent with his appearance.
The Xiao Liu'er he was talking about was a member of the Liu Sect of the six major factions. His name was Liu Yufeng. He was several years older than Wu Huohai. He was in the middle stage of the Tao Xu Realm. He especially didn't like hearing Wu Huohai call him that. .
Wu Huohai asked him to invite him to dinner. He had been saying this for several years, but he never received the invitation. He also said it every time they met.
Looking at the area where the Wu family's ships docked, Wu Huohai was a little disappointed.
The Wu Family Gang arranged seven large ships and fifteen smaller ships at Qinghe Wharf.
Now none of their big boats are out on the river, and there are eleven smaller boats on the river. Business is very bleak.
Just as he was about to lift his leg to the area where the Wu family's boat was docked, Wu Huohai spotted a few people out of the corner of his eye, and he immediately retracted his leg.
Liu Yufeng frowned, looked at Wu Huohai, and shouted in a voice that could only be heard by two people: "Scar, what do you want to do?" "
Haha, let me see, I know the rules." Wu Huohai squeezed. He smiled a little less sincerely and said with a smile.
Behind Wu Huohai, three people were walking towards the pier from the city. They were young men in blue robes. Parallel to them was a woman in a blue dress and a hood.
Behind them followed a white-haired old man wearing a water-patterned blue robe.
Judging from the clothes of the three people, they are definitely rich people, especially the young man and woman in front. The exquisite workmanship of their robes shows that they are expensive.
What's more, it is impossible for ordinary people to come to Qinghe Wharf.
They were none other than Li Yuan, Li Yunqing and Guan Tian.
Seeing the three people approaching, Liu Yufeng hurriedly stepped forward and greeted him with a smile. He was afraid that Wu Huohai would ruin his business, so he raised his hands and said, "Guys, do you want to hire a boat?" "Yes. I want to hire a big boat to go down the river
. Let's play next. How far can you go?" Li Yuan asked. He had already found out before coming to the dock.
Only Qinghe Wharf handles business for more than 800 miles, and no reservation is required, but hiring an entire ship is quite expensive.
Liu Yufeng bowed slightly and replied respectfully: "Back to the young master, one thousand five hundred miles away." "
Oh, that's it, don't you go further?" Li Yuan asked.
"Sir, if you are far away, we need to discuss it in detail. After all, monsters are rampant along the way, and we have to consider your safety. We need to send more manpower. I wonder where your final destination is?" Liu Yufeng reported back.
"Shengxing City, are you going? If you can, leave now." Li Yuandao.
"This... Shengxing City, the straight-line distance to Shengxing City is two thousand miles. The waterway is winding and winding, almost three thousand miles. I'm afraid it's a bit difficult." Liu Yufeng replied with some embarrassment.
At this time, Wu Huohai stepped forward, gently pulled Liu Yufeng, bowed to Li Yuan, and said with a smile: "Master, let's go to Shengxing City. But the distance is indeed a bit far, and the cost is not low. You can let us discuss it. , I will reply to you later."
Li Yuan nodded after hearing this.
Wu Huohai took Liu Yufeng's arm and pulled him to the edge of the dock.
"Lao Liu, how about we work together this time? Take this business together." Wu Huohai smiled sinisterly.
Liu Yufeng's expression was a little solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "Shengxing City is too far away, and you haven't been there either. I can only go back to the sect, ask the sect leader what he means, and send the elders to escort him personally." "You are stupid, look at
this A few of them have little experience, and they must be wearing some kind of treasure that can hide their cultivation. The two young men are at the late stage of Yuanli realm or have perfect cultivation." Wu Huohai looked back slightly and glanced at Li Yuan and others
. , continued: "The old guy in the back doesn't have any energy fluctuations around him, so he is definitely not a Yuan Zhe."
