Chapter 143 Situation and Sister Feng’s appearance and superficial cooperation

The second year of Tai'an.

Late January.

The chaos in the four counties of the Yue Kingdom gradually subsided, and each of them decided to establish a giant. The power of the Jianghu became stronger, and they were on an equal footing with the aristocratic families.

Although there are still disputes at the upper levels, the lower levels have barely stabilized.

…

"So, there are currently three sects, two valleys and one sect in the Yue Kingdom?"

Chen Nuo looked at Chen Xiang and asked.

"Yes, Long Yuan's manpower has been extended to the county. Business there is developed and information flows faster. The strongest people have appeared in the other three counties."

The strongest sect in Ouyue County is the Molong Sect.

Juyan County is the Danshan Sect.

Hexia County is the Yaowang Valley and the Du Valley.

As for Liushui County, it is the True Red Sect and the Dajian Sect.

"All of these sects have viscera realms. Among them, the Danshan Sect in Juyan County is recognized as the strongest. Its disciples often join the army and there are many generals."

"The Molong Sect is the weakest, because it is where the power of the royal family and aristocratic families are located."

"In addition, there are different opinions on the superiority between the two sects in Liushui County and the two sects in Hexia County."

After listening to Chen Xiang's answer, Chen Nuo fell into deep thought.

Although I have been living very comfortably recently, no one who is short-sighted dares to come and disturb me. There are even many small sects rushing to seek refuge. Chen's power has greatly expanded.

There is no need to be taboo, not only the Chen family, but other aristocratic families and sects are also expanding, recruiting homeless warriors and refugees to serve as servants and tenants, but in fact they are the family's private soldiers. There are also many blacksmiths who have mysteriously disappeared. In fact, they were recruited by aristocratic families or The sect took him away with coercion and inducement.

Don't ask how Chen Nuo knew it. The question is that Chen is now also a member of the aristocratic family. Although he is only a relatively low-level powerful person, he is still a member of the aristocratic family!

At present, Chen's seems to have a trend of great success.

But Chen Nuo secretly became anxious.

Because the knowledge from the past life told him that prosperity must decline, good fortune and misfortune depend on each other, and he will live in peace and die in sorrow.

If we want long-term peace and stability, we must always maintain a sense of urgency.

Chen's reputation is really big now, and the entire Liushui County knows that such a powerful person has the strength of the muscles and bones.

Even though the situation seems to have stabilized now, the taxes demanded by the court are not small at all. Last year, Chen Nuo received subsidies from the family business to pay the taxes required for his position.

Under this kind of oppression, the number of refugees is increasing.

Moreover, the court has not sent anyone for the posts of County Magistrate and County Lieutenant until now, as if they had forgotten about them.

There was something weird everywhere, it felt like the factory was about to close down and the boss was going to take the money and run away. This made Chen Nuo feel at ease.

So, the way back, the way back!

"Chen Xiang, has the Yandang Mountain area been cleared?"

Chen Nuo said suddenly.

Yandang Mountain is an excellent place to hide troops.

The mountains are vast and easy to defend but difficult to attack. Otherwise, the Yandang Mountain bandits would not have been able to repel the Xuanshui Army several times.

Chen Nuo has long been eyeing this kind of good place, and Bengya Rabbit's treasure is also there, so Chen Nuo has given Chen Xiang instructions to find a safe place.

"One mountain has been swept out, and it is the mountain belonging to Beng Ya Tu. There are many bandits remaining on the other peaks. Moreover, these bandits are recovering because of the refugees." Chen Xiang replied.

"Don't worry, just sweep out one place. Next, the family will transport the recently recruited refugees, blacksmiths, carpenters and other craftsmen and people there. Although some family soldiers will be sent there, there are risks along the way. "

"Please help keep an eye on me. Don't let those bandits harass me. If anything happens, I'll keep an eye on you."

"yes!"

As a shelter and a retreat, Panshe Mountain is too small, but Yandang Mountain is just right.

But it's not enough.

The situation is unpredictable, who knows what will happen, so be prepared for a rainy day!

But Chen Nuo couldn't think of anything good for a while, so he had to give up temporarily.

At this time.

Chen Xiang said, "Clan Chief, there is something going on at the Enamel Brothel that you ordered."

"Um?"

"That Sister Feng's behavior today was different from before. After investigation, our people found that she went outside the city. Because the outside of the city is so wide, our people didn't dare to follow her too closely. We don't know where she ended up."

Chen Nuo touched his chin.

There is obviously someone behind this Sister Feng.

"Furthermore, according to the traces, we found that when the Hongchen Sect attacked, the other party had observed our Chen family. However, due to the reason of dealing with the Hongchen Sect, Long Yuan's power was diverted and he did not continue to stare at her, so we cannot be sure what the other party is. Are you targeting our Chen family?"

"Don't think about it, just think she's been targeted."

Chen Nuo came to a conclusion directly.

It doesn't matter whether he is being targeted or not. What is important is that having this suspicion is enough.

Pacing.

"When she comes back, let's see what she's going to do."

"yes."

In fact, Chen Nuo didn't wait long.

noon.

Chen Xiang came back.

His expression was strange, "Chief, that Sister Feng is here."

?

"What did you say?"

Chen Nuo was a little surprised.

"She is at the door now and is asking to be seen."

"Did she say anything?"

Chen Xiang frowned and said, "She said...she has news from the Yun Kingdom that she wants to tell the clan leader."

"..."

"Let her in."

Chen Mansion.

Side hall.

The main courtyard is a place where distinguished people or close people are received, while ordinary people are in the side hall or other rooms.

soon.

Chen Nuo met Sister Feng.

This is a woman with heavy makeup and looks vulgar, but Chen Nuo can still tell at a glance that she is a warrior, and she is still in the flesh realm.

On the opposite side.

Sister Feng's feelings are different from Chen Nuo.

Seeing Chen Nuo sitting in the first seat with an indifferent look, Sister Feng suddenly felt nervous.

It was like there was some kind of oppression, mentally depressed and afraid.

Fortunately, this feeling can be overcome. Sister Feng became natural in an instant, but her heart was raised higher.

"Hello, Chief Chen."

She did not flirt or pretend to be delicate, but was serious.

Chen Nuo nodded.

"The owner of the Enamel Brothel, do you have any news about Yun Country to tell me, and why do you tell me?"

Chen Nuo asked directly without any nonsense.

In fact, in normal communication, the person who asks the question first is usually at a disadvantage. This is a communication rule.

But Sister Feng would not do this.

Because of the different status.

She believed that as long as she dared to keep it a secret or hold it, the next moment this man would mercilessly let her go.

"My friend in Anye City told me that the envoy of Yun State died."

Short words, but shocking enough!

Envoys of Yun State, this, Chen Nuo knows.

Before Emperor Tai'an came to power, envoys of Yun State came, from Liushui County, and also went to Anye City, the capital of Liushui County. As for later, Chen Nuo has not heard much about it.

But no matter what, if an envoy of a country really died, or died in the territory of Yue State, it would probably cause an uproar.

"The day before yesterday, Yun State envoy Duan Yunen was killed in Dali Temple. The news has leaked. Yun State has a special method to determine the life and death of the envoy. According to my friend's news, the trade route between Yun State and Yue State is going to be cut off."

Sister Feng said all the news one by one.

Chen Nuo always maintained a cold expression.

"Who are you?"

Instead of asking whether the news was true or not, he asked directly who she was.

Feng Jie was silent for a moment, "Why does Patriarch Chen need to know all this? Isn't it enough if you just know that I have no ill will towards you?"

"Who are you?"

"..."

Chen Nuo looked at her.

The powerful mental power cultivated by the Qi martial arts has greatly tempered his spirit after reaching the Qi realm. Emotions carry mental power, making the power extremely oppressive.

Feng Jie on the opposite side gritted her teeth and couldn't help but look up, just in time to see Chen Nuo's eyes.

The corner of her eye twitched.

My heart... why does it feel out of control...

Plop, plop, plop...

Gudong.

"I'm from Hongxiulou."

After saying this, her mind relaxed instantly, and the inexplicable sense of oppression in her heart quietly dissipated.

"Hu~Hu~"

"Hongxiulou? What do you want to do?"

The words have been said, so you can make the best of a bad situation...

Feng Jie, who reacted, thought so.

"We are a self-protection organization formed by prostitutes. We don't want to do anything but protect ourselves."

"Heh."

Chen Nuo chuckled.

Feng Jie added, "Of course, because the situation has changed now, we choose to support some forces to cooperate with us for mutual benefit. The local forces provide us with convenience and resources, and we can provide intelligence and some reasonable support in the court."

"To be honest, Patriarch Chen, the reason why I told you this news is to show my sincerity. I hope you can cooperate with us."

Feng Jie said very sincerely.

Chen Nuo finally stopped having a cold face at this moment.

Slowly showing a smile, "Cooperation, of course, we have to talk about it in detail..."

"Before that, Feng Dongjia should at least show the strength of your building, right?"

Seeing that there was something to talk about, Feng Jie smiled, "Of course."

"The news about the envoys from Yunguo is just a sincerity. As long as Patriarch Chen is willing, we can also provide you with new news, or channels."

"Your family doesn't have many medicinal materials, right?"

"The Liu's Pharmacy in Anye City has a large amount of medicinal materials. Our Hongxiu Building can introduce them to you and solve your urgent needs." At this point, Feng Jie smiled with a faint and self-satisfied smile, looking extremely confident.

"Okay, your building is really sincere! I am very satisfied!"

"..."

"..."

Afterwards, the two talked about some things about cooperation.

Sister Feng left with satisfaction.

Watching the other party leave, Chen Nuo's smile faded.

"Patriarch, do we really want to lift all restrictions on them?"

The brothel industry is subject to some restrictions, at least it will not allow a brothel to open everywhere.

"Let it go, it doesn't matter."

No matter what secrets this Hongxiu Building has, since it has come out in the open, it is not so scary.

It's just right to take advantage of the convenience of cooperation to get some intelligence.

For example, the news about Hexia County, the southernmost part of Yue State, which is also the most stable place in the current environment.
