Outside the First Zither Pavilion on this street:
Countless xiuzhe had gathered. The entire street was so crowded that not even a drop of water could trickle through.
"The shameless First Zither Pavilion closed down, but you still can't stand the business of the First Zither Pavilion?"
"It's all because of that Young Master An. He is the grandson of Lüyang Of Gojoseon. He asked the City Lord to mobilize the troops!"
"He is too shameless. He is a disgrace to His Highness!"
"He can't win against Gu Hai in business, so he wants to use the authorities to seize the place? Is that all they can do? "
"Mr. Goode just saved us not long ago. Now, we are just going to watch as Mr. Goode's businesses are seized?"
"City Lord, you are helping the villain!"
…
…
…
Countless cultivators in the surroundings shouted angrily.
At this moment, a large number of soldiers surrounded the First Zither Pavilion in the center of the street. The surrounding cultivators were not allowed to get close.
At the entrance of the First Zither Pavilion on this street:
At this moment, a large number of Elite Hall disciples showed anxious expressions. They held bows and arrows and faced the group of Young Master An's subordinates who wanted to barge into the First Zither Pavilion.
However, the Dahan officials that Gu Hai brought were extremely calm at this moment.
The Acquired Realm Dahan officials ordered the Wood Division disciples to block the entrance, not allowing anyone to enter or leave. They looked coldly at the former First Zither Pavilion across them.
The First Zither Pavilion closed down and was smashed. However, it was cleaned up over the past few days.
At the entrance of the First Zither Pavilion: The soldiers were waiting.
There were two seats in the center.
Young Master An sat on one of them. Young Master An tapped his leg and drank tea as he looked coldly at the anxious Elite Hall disciples across him. A subordinate with a golden saber on his back stood behind him. There were also Jiang Tianyi and the others.
On the other chair sat a burly man with a curly beard. He was dressed in luxurious clothes and looked around coldly.
"Get lost, get lost, this piece of land, this building, is ours!" A group of young master An's subordinates berated.
These subordinates were none other than the three thousand archers that Gu Hai brought into the First Zither Pavilion.
At this moment, the three thousand archers chased away the Elite Hall disciples.
The Elite Hall members blocked in front and also took out bows and arrows, aiming at the other side. He stopped the group of young master An's subordinates from breaking in.
The two sides were locked in a heated argument.
A group of Dahan officials stood to the side and watched quietly.
It was chaos outside the First Zither Building on this street. Young Master An, on the other hand, was extremely pleased. He was not in a hurry to attack the first zither building on this street. Instead, it was as if he was waiting for Gu Hai.
Not far away, on a small building.
Sima Changkong looked at the center of the chaos from afar, and the corner of his mouth revealed a slight smile.
"Young Master An? He was really domineering! It seems that this trip to Yingzhou will be much easier! "Sima Changkong smiled as he stroked his guqin.
"My Lord, City Lord He Shikang is waiting for Young Master An's orders. Or has he already taken orders from Lüyang Of Gojoseon? "A subordinate frowned and whispered.
Sima Changkong narrowed his eyes and said, "He Shikang? Every city lord in the Great Qian Dynasty needs the Emperor's permission before they can become a city lord. They have to be loyal to the Emperor. If he dares to become someone else's servant, he is also courting death! "
"Yes, but this is such a grand occasion. Gu Hai's First Zither Building on this street might not be able to handle it!"
"Maybe?" Sima Changkong smiled faintly.
In the distance, it was still chaos.
"Mr. Goode is here. Make way, make way!"
"Master Gu, as long as you say the word, I will help you get justice!"
"Master Gu, be careful of these villains!"
…
…
…
A commotion broke out everywhere. After being indebted to Gu Hai, they naturally stood on Gu Hai's side. They were cursing the people inside.
"Hmph!" Young Master An snorted coldly.
On the other hand, the City Lord of Silver Moon was calm and composed as he sipped his tea.
Although there was a sea of people around, when Gu Hai's Flying Crane Carriage arrived, both sides quickly made way for Gu Hai to reach the center.
When they were near, everyone got off the Flying Crane Carriage.
Gu Hai was about to pay.
"No need, no need. Mr. Goode, you are busy. How can I take your money?" The owner of the Flying Crane Carriage immediately refused.
Gu Hai smiled faintly and tossed a Superior Grade Spirit Stone into the carriage.
"Sigh, Mr. Goode, don't be like this. I, I …!" The owner of the Flying Crane Carriage didn't know what to say.
However, Gu Hai and his group had already entered.
When Gu Hai arrived, the surrounding cultivators quieted down.
The fight at the First Zither Building on this street also stopped.
"Hall Leader, Division Leader, Division Leader Gu!" The Elite Hall disciples greeted respectfully.
The Dahan officials also bowed respectfully to Gu Hai.
When Gu Hai saw that everyone was fine, he relaxed and nodded.
Not far away, Young Master An smiled coldly as if he had been waiting for Gu Hai.
Beside him, City Lord He Shikang slowly stood up.
"Greetings, Hall Leader of Elite Hall!" He Shikang looked at Long Wanqing and said Solemnly.
"Uncle He, what are you doing? Are you bringing an army to surround Elite Hall's property? "Long Wanqing raised her eyebrows.
He Shikang smiled bitterly and shook his head. "No, I was invited by Young Master An to preside over a property dispute!"
"Property dispute?" Gu Hai walked forward with a slight frown.
"This is Mr. Goode? Back then, when you performed Pathos and saved my city, I didn't have time to thank you! You are truly a young hero! "He Shikang looked at Gu Hai and smiled.
"Young man? I don't dare. I just don't understand what City Lord means. What property dispute is there in my shop? "Gu Hai asked in confusion.
The City Lord's tone was polite, so Gu Hai naturally wouldn't fall out with him. He looked at the City Lord in confusion.
"Property dispute? Hahahaha, Gu Hai, your shop is mine! "Young Master An suddenly said.
Young Master An slowly stood up, and his subordinates followed closely behind him.
"Oh?" Gu Hai narrowed his eyes.
"Young Master An, the World's Number One Zither Building is your territory. Why? Now, Silvermoon City, the city of the Da Qian Celestial Empire, has become your territory? "Gu Hai looked at Young Master An with a cold smile.
All the land under the heavens belonged to the king, and all the people on the shores of the land were the king's subjects! The city of the Da Qian Celestial Empire could only belong to the Daqian Celestial Empire. Who would dare to say that it belonged to them in front of everyone? Even the Lüyang Of Gojoseon wouldn't dare. Naturally, Young Master An didn't dare to say anything in public.
"Humph, Gu Hai, I don't have time to talk nonsense with you. You've taken over my land. Tell your people to get lost immediately. Your zither building is mine!" Young Master An said coldly.
"Oh? It's yours? Young Master An, you can't speak carelessly! "Gu Hai said in confusion.
"Speak carelessly? Humph, you bought this place and this building from him, right? "Young Master An pointed at a person not far away.
The old man walked out, trembling in fear. He didn't dare to look at Gu Hai.
At this moment, a Dahan official walked over. "Master, when we bought this shop, we bought it from this old man. We went to the government office to register it and paid the transfer fee. All the documents are in our hands!"
Gu Hai frowned slightly and looked at He Shikang in the city.
"There's no need to look at the City Lord. Your transfer fee is fake!" A voice came from behind Young Master An.
A plump, middle-aged man slowly walked out. He looked somewhat similar to Jiang Tianyi, the manager of the number one zither building in the world.
"Oh? You are? "Gu Hai asked, feeling puzzled.
"I am Silver Moon's First Go Pavilion's manager. Manager Jiang Tianyi is my elder brother. I am Jiang Tianqi!" the plump, middle-aged man said with a smile.
"Silver Moon's First Go Pavilion's manager? So, you are also Manager Jiang. Why? Does my number one zither building have something to do with you? "Gu Hai asked, feeling confused.
"Of course. This old man sold this shop to me back then. Furthermore, he registered it with the government office. I also paid the transfer fee. All the documents are complete. Hence, your zither building is mine. I bought it with money!" Jiang Tianqi said with a cold smile.
The surrounding cultivators were stunned when they heard Jiang Tianqi's words.
"What? Two for one? That old man sold two for one? "
"That's impossible. How can two for one? Is the official registration fake? "
"Is it Young Master An? He bribed the Real Estate Transaction Bureau to falsify the registration just to snatch this street's number one zither building? "
"He is too shameless!"
…
…
…
The surrounding people cursed.
"Uncle He, what is going on? Two for one? How is that possible? When we registered and paid, no one said anything about this! "Long Wanqing said with a frown.
He Shikang smiled bitterly and said, "That is indeed the case. Manager Jiang bought this place first, and you bought it later. This old man sold two for one, so he needs to be punished severely. I am here this time to handle this matter impartially. "
Two for one?
Gu Hai looked at Young Master An and revealed a faint smile. "Young Master An, you really put in a lot of effort. Snatching my zither building? However, do you know that it is only this piece of land at most? As long as my number one zither building's signboard is still there, I can reopen for business elsewhere at any time? "
But Young Master An revealed a faint smile. He walked closer and said in a low voice, "I know, but I don't care! Today, you are moving out! Aren't you reopening? You don't need to renovate? Hahahaha, if I snatch your shop today, I will snatch it again when you reopen after a month of renovations. Do you believe that I will make sure your zither building can't open for business? "
Young Master An's voice was very low, so low that the surrounding xiuzhe couldn't hear it.
Only Long Wanqing heard it. She glared and said angrily, "You, Lu An!"
Gu Hai reached out and pulled Long Wanqing to stop Long Wanqing's anger. He turned to look at the City Lord.
"City Lord He, you are here today to uphold justice? What kind of justice? "Gu Hai said in a low voice.
"A country has its laws, and a trade has its rules. This shop was sold to Manager Jiang first, so naturally it should be returned to Manager Jiang. As for the money you used to buy this shop, I will help you investigate and return it to you!" Solemnly, He Shikang said.
Refund the shop? Close the shop?
Gu Hai's face darkened. However, Young Master An revealed a trace of a complacent smile. Shopkeeper Jiang also smiled complacently.
A group of people eyeing the shop covetously and even brought the City Lord Mansion's army. Just to evict the number one zither building on this street?
"Of course, I can give you another option!" Young Master An said with a cold smile.
"Oh?" Gu Hai said with a frown.
Manager Jiang Tianqi walked out from the side and said, "I have a contract to buy this shop, together with all the documents. If Mr. Goode doesn't mind, you and I can have a bet!"
"What bet?"
"If you win, I will give you this contract. I don't want this shop anymore. It will be yours. But if you lose, get out of Silver Moon City immediately and never come back. What do you think?" Manager Jiang Tianqi said with a cold smile.
"If I win, I can continue the business. If you win, I will leave Silver Moon City?" Gu Hai said coldly with a frown.
"Gu Hai, don't listen to them. I don't see such a shameless person. I will write a letter to the Censor immediately. I want the Censor to investigate. Is Silver Moon City still under His Holiness's jurisdiction? Reversing the truth and putting people in a desperate situation? Also, is the Silver Moon City army the Da Qian army or the Lüyang Of Gojoseon army? "Long Wanqing said angrily.
He Shikang's face darkened.
However, Young Master An revealed a cold smile.
It was because he had considered the consequences on the surface that he went through the trouble of getting someone to set a trap and forge a contract. Otherwise, with his temper, he would have destroyed the number one zither building on this street.
"What do you want to bet on?" Gu Hai said with a low voice.
"Chess!" Jiang Tianqi said with a cold smile.
"Zither?" Gu Hai was slightly stunned.
Long Wanqing was also slightly stunned. Did I hear wrongly? What is this Jiang Tianqi talking about?
"It's not zither, it's chess! It's Go! "Jiang Tianqi emphasized again.
"Go?" Gu Hai was slightly stunned.
Long Wanqing was also stunned.
"That's right. Hahahaha. Do you think I will still play zither with you? You wish! Only a fool would play zither with you. If you want to have a foothold in Silver Moon City, you will have to beat me in Go! "Jiang Tianqi said proudly.
Long Wanqing stopped fooling around. She looked at Young Master An and the rest in shock.
At that moment, everyone looked at Gu Hai as if victory was in their hands.
Everyone thought that Gu Hai was a zither master, an extremely powerful zither master. If they wanted to beat Gu Hai, they naturally couldn't play zither. There was no way they could win.
Let's play Go then!
Generally speaking, literary cultivators focused on only one aspect: the zither, Go, calligraphy, and painting. Gu Hai was so young, but his understanding of zither was so thorough. His understanding of Go was definitely terrible.
Hence, they wanted to play Go with Gu Hai.
"You want to play Go with me? Oh, I forgot. You said that you are the manager of Silver Moon City's First Chess Pavilion? You are also one of Lüyang Of Gojoseon's businesses? "Gu Hai looked at Jiang Tianqi in confusion.
"That's right. Go and zither are worlds apart. Silver Moon City mainly cultivates the zither, but there are also Go cultivators. This humble one is Jiang Tianqi. Although I don't say that it is hard to find a match in Silver Moon City, I have seen countless Go manuals. Not long ago, the Ninth Young Master played a Go game in the Da Qian Celestial Dynasty. I was fortunate enough to watch it. Do you know the Ninth Young Master? He is one of Guanqi's nine sons, the one who inherited Old Man Guanqi's legacy! "Jiang Tianqi said with a cold smile.
"Huh? The Ninth Young Master? You watched the Ninth Young Master's Go game? "Gu Hai was slightly stunned.
"Humph! To be more precise, it was the Go game left behind by Old Man Guanqi, the Twenty-Eight Line-Pair World Go Game!" Jiang Tianqi said proudly.
"You watched the Twenty-Eight Line-Pair World Go Game?" Gu Hai was shocked, and so was Long Wanqing. "That's right.
Although there is an even more incredible Twenty-Nine Line-Pair World Go Game that I am not qualified to watch, I watched the Twenty-Eight Line-Pair World Go Game for three days and three nights. Although I did not crack it in the end, I comprehended about seventy to eighty percent of it. Humph! Gu Hai, you still have a chance. Do you want to bet with me? "Jiang Tianqi said proudly.
Gu Hai and Long Wanqing opened their mouths in shock. What … what should they say?
Young Master An smiled coldly and said, "How about you take your people and leave the Zither Tower now and choose a new place to open for business? I will come and congratulate you when you open for business. Otherwise, we will play a game of Go with Jiang Tianqi. If you win, we will even give you this shop. If you lose, get out of Silver Moon City.
Choose! "" That's right. Ever since I watched the Twenty-Eight Line-Pair World Go Game, I have comprehended eight unique incomplete pieces. Gu Hai, do you dare to bet with me? "Jiang Tianqi looked at Gu Hai with a cold smile.
"…!" Gu Hai was speechless.
Long Wanqing, "…!"
