According to the gossip of the round head Bao Gu, Yue Yang had a comprehensive understanding of the current situation in Black Wind City.
First of all, Bai Song, whose beloved son had been killed, had reached an agreement with the Master of Black Wind City and worked together. Similarly, as the mediator between the two sides, the Lionheart King's envoy, Marshal Long Xiang, also joined the investigation team as a neutral third party. Then there was the Lan Jiang Sect's Jue Hu. He unexpectedly rejected the Master of Black Wind City's reconciliation and demanded that the Black Wind hand over the murderer as soon as possible, or meet him in battle. If it wasn't for the arrival of Marshal Long Xiang, he would have fought with Black Wind to the point of no return.
Unlike Bai Song, the battle between Jue Hu and Black Wind was a real one.
Moreover, Jue Hu's strength was extremely terrifying.
Fortunately, the location of the battle was a manor fifty kilometers outside the city. Otherwise, the entire Black Wind City would have been razed to the ground.
Even though they were fifty kilometers apart, the shock of the battle still came from afar, almost affecting them. According to Bao Gu's insider information, Jue Hu was able to fight against the combined forces of Black Wind, General Jin Feng, and Bai Song, three Heaven Stage experts. This Lan Jiang Sect Leader was unbelievably powerful.
In addition, the second piece of news stunned Yue Yang.
While Black Wind and Jue Hu were fighting, a mysterious thief appeared in the city and snuck into the City Lord's Mansion.
Because the Master of Black Wind City was out, no one in the mansion noticed the thief's infiltration. All the treasures inside were swept away, and the Master of Black Wind City suffered heavy losses.
The third major event was that the Griffin Elite Squad under the command of Marshal Long Xiang seemed to have discovered something when they were searching for traces of killing Young Master Song Tao. However, on their way back to report to Marshal Long Xiang, they were suddenly attacked by a Heaven Stage expert and were completely annihilated. When this news came out, the entire city was once again shaken. It was said that even the Lionheart King was alarmed and sent out the 'Dragon-Armored Scarlet Cavalry' to assist Marshal Long Xiang in investigating the case.
"Why did you sleep for three days? You missed such a good thing …" "But it's fine. I believe it will be even more exciting later."
The round head Bao Gu did not suspect Yue Yang's absence.
This was because Yue Yang wasn't the only one who could sleep for three days.
Many races that had time to hibernate had this ability. Not to mention three days of hibernation, it wasn't difficult for them to sleep for three months, or even three years!
Yue Yang was secretly analyzing all the major events that had happened. It seemed that the sexy beauty had already made her move. The second and third major events were most likely done by her or her companions. Was she secretly helping him? Or should he create trouble to attract the Lionheart King's attention and drag him down with him? The Lionheart King was paying attention here, so how was he supposed to extricate himself?
If the female flame giant was in Black Wind City, Yue Yang would have just saved her.
Unfortunately, she wasn't here. She was somewhere else.
There was no news from Raging Flames for the time being, so he still had to wait …
As for the Lionheart King's attention, he could only go along with it. At most, he would return to Tong Tian Tower for a vacation. It was impossible for that sexy and enchanting beauty to use him as a tool!
"Let's go and see what's up for auction!" Yue Yang's calm performance made the round head Bao Gu admire him greatly.
"Brother Jun is indeed worthy of coming from the Western Heaven realm. He has traveled a lot and his mentality is extremely good. I dare say that in Black Wind City right now, the only person who still has the mind to pay attention to business is probably Brother Jun." The round head Bao Gu indicated that Black Wind City had entered the first level of war alert. The black market would be closed for the next ten days. Only after the war was over, the murderer was arrested, and the disputes between the various sects were over would the black market continue to open.
"What about the annual auction?" Yue Yang asked about the annual auction that he was most concerned about.
"If it can end before then, it won't affect the annual auction. If it really can't be done, the annual auction might be held in the Whistling Stronghold or Moonview City." The round head Bao Gu also felt a little regretful, "The merchants and residents of the Whistling Stronghold and Moonview City are extremely xenophobic. You stinky outsiders, hurry up and go back to your countryside … They will definitely say that. If we change to those two places and hold the annual auction, then I'm afraid we won't even be able to get a seat, let alone get anything good!"
"It can't be?" Yue Yang was shocked.
"Hey, the Whistling Stronghold is the number one stronghold in the Emerald Territory, and the Moonview City is the wealthiest city in the Emerald Territory. In the eyes of the residents there, we are just beggars from the countryside. If we go to their place, the city guards will have a hundred reasons to search for outsiders who enter the city, and the privileges of insulting outsiders can be seen everywhere. In the Moonview City, many places have a clear rule: 'Outsiders and low-intelligence races are not allowed to enter'. "The round head Bao Gu also didn't want the annual auction to be held in the Whistling Stronghold or the Moonview City.
Although Black Wind City wasn't a very good place to live, it was better than freedom.
There were more taxes, but there was still a way to survive here.
If he were to go to the rich and luxurious Moonview City, a small peddler like the round head Bao Gu wouldn't even be able to afford the smallest house. He wouldn't even be able to find a job. If he went, there would only be death.
"…" Yue Yang listened to the round head Bao Gu's introduction and was speechless.
Sure enough, regional discrimination existed everywhere.
The Hua Xia Dynasty was like this, but he didn't expect that the Emerald Territory of the Heaven Realm would also be like this.
Although the black market was not open, under the introduction of the round head Bao Gu, Yue Yang was still able to buy a lot of the materials he wanted. For the first time, Yue Yang felt a sense of approval for this ugly, gossipy man. In the Heaven Realm, without strength or capital, it was not easy to live. People like the round head Bao Gu, everything he did was just a way of life that was forced by reality. If there was a better life, who would be willing to live like this?
Under Bao Gu's recommendation, Yue Yang went to a large Chamber of Commerce called 'Chidoo' in Black Wind City and got to know the vice president there.
He spent three hundred thousand more, but he bought the three thousand year old Hard-shelled Dragon Fruit that Yue Yang had always yearned for.
After the deal, Yue Yang and the vice president, who had been bribed with a large sum of money, were very satisfied.
They even made a verbal agreement to continue working together.
"It's all thanks to Brother Bao today. Otherwise, this deal would not have been completed." Yue Yang flattered Bao Gu and rewarded him with ten thousand gold. This sum of money stunned the round head Bao Gu. Of course, he would receive a bounty, but he never dreamed that it would be so much!
"Brother, Brother Jun, is there a mistake?" Bao Gu rubbed his hands uneasily. He realized that the gold coins that Yue Yang had transferred to his card were ten thousand, not a thousand. In fact, a thousand gold was already the highest estimate in his heart. Originally, he didn't make much contribution during the entire transaction, and the vice president was greedy. Seeing that the other party was eager to buy, he asked for a bribe of three hundred thousand …
Bao Gu felt very sorry for this' Jun Wu Ye 'from the Western Heaven Realm. He felt that Jun Wu Ye, who had made a loss, might only reward him with a hundred gold, because even a hundred gold was considered a lot in the industry rules.
He had wanted to deny the highest estimate in his heart. A thousand gold was too much, how could there be so much? Impossible!
He was even mentally prepared to reap ten gold!
Now that he saw that it was ten thousand gold, the round head Bao Gu felt a little dizzy. Even if this Jun Wu Ye was very rich, he wouldn't give him that much money, right? He must have given it to the wrong person! He looked at the huge sum of money with a bit of eagerness. If this was true, then it would be great. However, he had never heard of a reward of ten thousand gold. Most importantly, he did not contribute much and did not speak up for him just now.
Bao Gu hated himself very much. How could he be like this? Jun Wu Ye trusted him so much and treated him so well, yet he sat back and watched as that guy asked for a bribe of three hundred thousand. How could he face his friend, Jun Wu Ye?
The other party treated him as a friend, but he …
Yue Yang looked at the round-faced Bao Gu, who was about to cry, and smiled, "This is what you deserve, Brother Bao. Actually, this Hard-shelled Dragon Fruit is very important to me. Besides, the information you've told me over the past few days is also valuable. You've become friends with each other, and you've recommended me into the trade circle to buy the items I've been looking for. This money is the reward you deserve. Brother Bao, this is not the end, but the beginning. In the future, if you successfully recommend me and let me buy the desired item, I will receive a reward that is no less than this commission! "
"It's precisely because you treat me like a friend that I can't take it." The round-faced Bao Gu held back his tears and handed the card back to Yue Yang with difficulty. "No, I won't accept this money."
"Brother Bao, I still need a lot of things. The Hard-shelled Dragon Fruit is only the beginning. If you don't help me, who in Black Wind City can help me? Could it be that Bao Gu thinks that I'm not generous enough as a friend? " When Yue Yang said this, the round-headed Bao Gu hurriedly waved his hand and shook his head nervously, "No, no, no, Brother Jun, you misunderstood, you misunderstood, I definitely didn't mean that! I … Alright, I'll accept your commission, but in the future, I'll do my best for all your transactions … You treat me like a friend, and I, Bao Gu, can't lose face. I'll definitely get all the items you need for you … "
At the end of his sentence, the round-headed Bao Gu choked with sobs.
Friend, in Black Wind City, who would treat a peddler like him as a friend? Who valued his information, who cared about his recommendation?
Only this young man from the Western Heaven Realm was very ignorant. He knew nothing about the Southern Heaven Realm, and he didn't even have the heart to guard against others. What he had told him before was mostly bragging, and he didn't treat him as a real friend at all. He just wanted to take advantage of him, let him treat him to a meal, and also show off his knowledge.
However, he didn't expect that the other party would treat him sincerely and treat him as a friend.
If this hadn't happened to him, then he might have laughed at him for being an idiot.
In the Heaven Realm, how could there be any friends?
However, when it happened to him, the round-headed Bao Gu couldn't help but feel an indescribable emotion … To have a friend who valued him, even if he was a young human who didn't even have the strength of an Earth Stage, that feeling was really good! This was a hundred times better than knowing countless Heaven Stage experts who kowtowed to each other and didn't even look at him from the corner of their eyes! A Heaven Stage expert wouldn't even look at him if he kowtowed to them. However, this weak human treated him as a friend and believed his words without any scheming!
The light card in his hand became heavy at this moment.
Bao Gu held it tightly.
Now, he felt that this was not only money, but also a kind of wealth that he had never had before and could not be replaced by anything. Friendship!
In the past, he had never believed in his friendship and had always scoffed at it. At this moment, it was no longer an existence that he secretly mocked in his heart. Instead, it was a kind of touching, an indescribable feeling.
At dusk, Yue Yang was instructing the waiter to prepare dinner.
A bloody person ran back from outside. It was the round head Bao Gu who had gone out to gather information. He was like a mad lion, knocking everything in his way to the ground. He rushed in front of Yue Yang and shouted in a sincere tone that he had never used before: "Wu Ye, listen up, don't trust anyone in the future. In this Black Wind City, in the Emerald Territory, no, in the entire Heaven Realm, you can't trust anyone casually, and you can't easily expose your money, do you understand? If you have a teleportation crystal, or any other way to leave, quickly leave this place … Black Wind City is a place that eats people. Don't come back in the future. If you treat me as a friend, you must remember not to trust strangers! "
"What happened?" Yue Yang had actually guessed it.
"It's very simple." The vice president floated over from afar with a hypocritical smile. "Before you die, I will explain it to you!"
