Cold Moon Immortal City. 寒月仙城。 The southwest direction, is away from the Immortal City central area very far position, there is a spacious giant square. 西南方向,在距离仙城中心区域很远的位置,有一片空旷的巨大广场。 Here is the Imperial Family mine. More than 2000 years ago, the ore in mine hollowed out thoroughly, this place left unused, Yao Clan then buys it, and constructed a large-scale stopping boat level ground in the original address, as Cloud Ray flying boat at the Immortal City parking location. 这里原本是皇室的矿场。两千多年前,矿场内的矿被彻底挖空,这片地方闲置了下来,姚氏便将其买下,并在原址上建造了一座大型的停舟坪,作为云鳐飞舟在仙城的停靠点。 Unknowingly, more than 2000 years passed by, stop around the boat level ground also to have the tremendous changes. 不知不觉,两千多年过去,停舟坪周围也发生了翻天覆地的变化。 Once the spacious bleak outer suburbs mining area turned into the lively business district, the population also had the explosive growth, the street that extended in all directions was actually retained, after expanding and repaired, becomes the Yao Clan freight transportation street. 曾经空旷荒凉的远郊矿区变成了繁华的商业区,人口也出现了爆炸性的增长,倒是那四通八达的马路被保留了下来,拓宽和重修后成为了姚氏的货运马路。 But stops the boat level ground, in more than 2000 years was overhauled were innumerable, turned into the present complex neat appearance from that simple square at first, the function also turned into the collection and distribution center of a large-scale stream of people and logistics from the simple flying boat parking location. 而停舟坪,也在这两千多年的时间里被翻修了无数次,从最初那个简简单单的广场变成了如今复杂规整的模样,功能也从简单的飞舟停靠点变成了一个大型的人流和物流的集散中心。 In the afternoon. 午后。 The bright sunlight sprinkles, in entire stops in the boat level ground, according to the person is warm. 灿烂的阳光洒落在整个停舟坪上,照得人暖洋洋的。 Stops the boat level ground corner, in store front that is hanging „Yuchi Clan Carriages and Horses Trade Union” signboard, Storekeeper Chai is lying down in a rocking chair comfortably, midday rest, while glances through named 【Immortal City daily paper】 The booklet, understood that in Immortal City the real-time prices of various types of goods, try to look for an opportunity to come out from inside. 停舟坪一角,一间挂着“尉迟氏车马工会”招牌的铺面内,柴掌柜正舒服地躺在一张摇椅内,一边午休,一边翻阅一份名为【仙城日报】的小册子,了解仙城内各种物品的实时价格,试图从里面寻摸点商机出来。 Others in in the shop were busy at for quite a while, can with great difficulty the midday rest, is grasping the time rest, or busy oneself matter. 铺子里的其他人忙了半天,好不容易可以午休,也正在抓紧时间休息,亦或者忙碌自己的事情。 The sunlight passes the window to sprinkle in in the shop, as if covered a dim halo to everyone, seeming like school of Years is static. 阳光透窗户洒落在铺子里,仿佛给所有人镀上了一层朦胧的光晕,看上去一派岁月静好。 Also at this time. 也就在这时候。 In the sky casts a huge shadow. 天空中投下一片巨大的阴影。 Giant Cloud Ray flying boat broken clouds come, to glide in stopping the boat level ground descend slowly. 一艘巨大的云鳐飞舟破云而来,滑翔着在停舟坪上缓缓降落。 After stop, has the trailer tractor in square to drive past, leading flying boat to transfer the boat body slowly, finally anchors , of ringside stopped in the boat position. 停稳之后,就有广场内的牵引车开了过去,引领着飞舟缓缓调转舟身,最后停靠在了场边的一个停舟位上。 Quick, the Cloud Ray flying boat latter cabin door then opened, has the crew to start to take care is moving the thing outward. 很快,云鳐飞舟的后舱门便打开了,有船员开始张罗着往外搬东西。 Sees this battle formation, Storekeeper Chai knows, having the business must visit. 一见这阵势,柴掌柜就知道,有生意要上门了。 Sure enough, crossed shortly , a brocade clothes middle-aged person crossed the hands behind the back, on the chubby face full was high-spirited: „Old Chai, prepares 20 ox carts for me. Money or old rule, in the Yao Clan Aerial Transport account.” 果不其然,过了没多久,一个锦衣中年人就负手走了进来,胖乎乎的脸上满是意气风发:“老柴,替我准备二十辆牛车。钱还是老规矩,记在姚氏空运的账上。” „Yo ~ Old Tan, did you get rich? Is so happy.” Storekeeper Chai puts down 【Immortal City daily paper】 Moves forward to meet somebody, smilingly exchanged greetings. “哟~老谭,你这是发财了？心情这么好。”柴掌柜放下【仙城日报】迎了上去,笑眯眯地寒暄起来。 „Makes what wealth ~” chubby middle-aged person to smile the rebuttal, „gets rich is the true big shot, I am also follow to run about, rub a soup.” “发什么财啊~”胖乎乎的中年人笑眯眯反驳,“发财的都是真正的大佬,我也就是跟着跑个腿,蹭口汤而已。” If Wang Lici here, can certainly recognize, the chubby middle-aged person of passing through the gate, was she hit that fat Storekeeper of many social dealings impressively. 如果王璃慈在这里,一定能认出来,进门的这个胖乎乎的中年人,赫然就是和她打了好多次交道的那个胖掌柜。 Ate on Wang Lici one after another owed twice greatly, fat Storekeeper then studied afterward clever, does not dare to do against with Wang Lici. 在王璃慈身上接连吃了两次大亏,胖掌柜后来便学乖了,再不敢跟王璃慈对着干。 Previous Wang Lici and Wang Clan people travel by Cloud Ray flying boat comes Immortal Dynasty the time, he is busy preparing attentively, serves one group of comfortable. So, recalled the impression mark, there is an opportunity of rendering meritorious service. 上次王璃慈和王氏众人搭乘云鳐飞舟前来仙朝的时候,他更是殷勤地忙前忙后,把一行人伺候的舒舒服服的。如此,才算是挽回了印象分,也有了立功的机会。 While Storekeeper spoke, the partner in shop has also gone into action, accounting of accounting, prepares the preparation ox cart of ox cart, the movement was quite agile. 而在掌柜们说话的同时,店铺内的伙计也已经行动起来,记账的记账,去准备牛车的准备牛车,动作相当利索。 Quick, giant theater box car(riage)s carried dragging of spirit ox to entrain to drive in the giant iron stopped the boat level ground, formed the line to prepare to load the cargo. 很快,一辆辆巨大的厢车就在巨型铁背灵牛的拖拽下驶入了停舟坪,排着队伍准备装载货物。 The Yuchi Clan spirit ox car(riage) is the giant theater box car(riage), a car(riage) can load tens of thousands jin (0.5 kg) goods, the business of 20 ox carts, even if regarding Yuchi Clan were also a quite big business. 尉迟氏的灵牛车都是巨型的厢车,一辆车可以装载几万斤的货,二十辆牛车的生意,哪怕对于尉迟氏而言也算是一笔比较大的生意了。 Fat Storekeeper and Storekeeper Chai also following ox cart passed together, stands transports the cargo in the nearby directors and supervision crew and sales clerks. 胖掌柜和柴掌柜也跟着牛车一块儿过去了,站在边上指挥和监督船员和店员们搬运货物。 Because the transportation distance is far, in the air will also meet the storm occasionally, considers for the security of cargo, the cargo in Cloud Ray flying boat installs in the standard big wooden box, cannot see from the semblance is anything. 因为运输距离远,空中偶尔还会遇到风暴,为了货物的安全着想,云鳐飞舟内的货物都是装在制式的大木箱里的,从外表上看不出里面是什么。 „Old Tan, looks at your high-spirited appearance, this large stock of goods seems like the value not poor.” Storekeeper Chai was for many years old Storekeeper, was quite keen in the detail, looked at the crew excessively carefully appearance, discovered keenly was not right. “老谭,瞧你这意气风发的样子,这一批货看来是价值不菲。”柴掌柜到底是积年的老掌柜了,在细节上极为敏锐,一看船员们过度小心谨慎地样子,就敏锐地发现了不对。 He glanced fat Storekeeper one: „Was over a hundred years of youngest brother, you must divulge the details to me, I was also good under the injunction waiters to be careful.” 他瞟了胖掌柜一眼:“都是上百年的老兄弟了,你可得给我透个底,我也好嘱咐底下的伙计们仔细着点。” He in the Yuchi Clan Carriages and Horses Trade Union work already more than 100 years. In fat Storekeeper also when the Immortal City Yao Clan Aerial Transport branch makes Storekeeper, he has dealt with fat Storekeeper, two people was also an old acquaintance, the speech also was quite naturally optional. 他在尉迟氏车马工会工作已经一百多年了。早在胖掌柜还在仙城姚氏空运分行做掌柜的时候,他就跟胖掌柜打过交道,两人也算是老熟人了,说话自然也就比较随意。 Fat Storekeeper smiles: „Since you are curious, the brothers I enlarge ones vision to you.” 胖掌柜嘿嘿一笑:“既然你好奇,那兄弟我就给你开开眼。” Saying, him the Storekeeper Chai belt/bring to the ship on, making the crew be in front of Storekeeper Chai to open a wooden box. 说着,他把柴掌柜带到船上,让船员当着柴掌柜的面打开了一个木箱。 In the wooden box, is each article is impressively fine just like the colored glaze product of artware, from chimney to cup board dishes, varied assortment. 木箱里,赫然是一件件精致得宛如艺术品的琉璃制品,从灯罩到杯盘碗碟,品种繁多。 Storekeeper Chai immediately „hiss”. 柴掌柜登时“嘶”了一声。 The colored glaze product is not rare, but fine to this degree of colored glaze product his actually first seeing, not to mention was such mass. Considering colored glaze product's price, this large stock of goods must be the words of this quality, that may really be the value good money. 琉璃制品不罕见,可精致到这种程度的琉璃制品他却还是第一次见,更别提是这么大批量了。考虑到琉璃制品本身的价格,这一批货要都是这种品质的话,那可真是值大钱了。 He envies looks to fat Storekeeper: „Colored glaze product always fine expensive/noble, cannot knock. You could rest assured that I make certainly person hand/subordinate pay attention to a point, takes care of the original design to deliver to you.” 他羡慕地看向胖掌柜:“琉璃制品向来精贵,磕碰不得。你放心,我一定让手下的人多注意一点,保管原样给你送到。” „That was exhausted the brother to take the trouble.” Fat Storekeeper happily, „frankly, this large stock of goods is that side the Eastern Qian Country new craft, part is must receive / and transport Immortal Court Internal Affairs Division, if there is a buckle, the brothers I really am not good to confess.” “那就劳烦老哥多费心了。”胖掌柜得意不已,“实不相瞒,这一批货都是东乾国那边的新工艺,其中一部分是要直接运去仙庭内务司的,若是有折损,兄弟我还真不好交代。” Storekeeper Chai envied the eye to be red immediately. 柴掌柜顿时羡慕得眼睛都红了。 Yao Clan worthily is Yao Clan, backed on Morning Sun Prince, the business was achieving Internal Affairs Division, the casual business was the perquisite is rich. Where looks like their Yuchi Clan, all day long gains is the laborious money. 姚氏不愧是姚氏,背靠着朝阳王,生意都做到了内务司,随便一笔生意都是油水丰厚。哪像他们尉迟氏,成天赚的都是辛苦钱。 Is speaking, the crew that side transports the cargo does not know that was mixed by anything, suddenly staggers, the big wooden box in hand also fell on the ground. 正说话间,旁边运送货物的船员不知道被什么东西拌了一下,忽然一个踉跄,手里的大木箱也摔在了地上。 „Thump” a dull thumping sound, a big wooden box corner/horn is well-grounded, the box lid was shaken an opening. Several pitch-dark profound iron spindles fell from inside immediately, the wheel wheel rolled several to stop slowly. “咚”的一声闷响,大木箱一个角着地,箱盖被震开了一个口子。几块黑漆漆的玄铁锭顿时从里面掉了出来,轱辘轱辘滚了好几圈才缓缓停了下来。 The complexion of that crew „brushing” one was white. 那船员的脸色“刷”一下就白了。 Fat Storekeeper also changed the complexion quickly, gets angry: „How do you move the thing?! Did not tell you are careful, is careful, did your words hear in the dog belly?!” 胖掌柜也倏地变了脸色,怒道:“你怎么搬东西的？！不是跟你们说了要小心,要小心,你话都听到狗肚子里去了？！” „Right, sorry.” “对,对不起。” The crew lowers the head hastily, apologized tremblingly. 船员连忙低着头,颤颤巍巍地道歉。 Manifested suddenly good, fat Storekeeper was calms down slightly a point, beckoning with the hand of made that crew hurry to roll. 发作了好一通,胖掌柜才算是稍微消气了一点,摆了摆手让那船员赶紧滚。 That crew relaxes greatly, picks up the profound iron spindle stopper to return to the wooden box hastily, ran speedily. 那船员大松了一口气,连忙捡起玄铁锭塞回木箱里,一溜烟跑了。 „Old Tan, you are......” “老谭,你这是……” Storekeeper Chai witnessed a moment ago that scene, looked to the fat Storekeeper look already some differences. 柴掌柜目睹了刚才那一幕,看向胖掌柜的眼神已经有些异样了。 Fat Storekeeper this response is not right, obviously is intends to conceal existence of profound iron spindle very much, this makes him have no alternative but to think. 胖掌柜这反应太不对劲了,很明显是有意想要隐瞒玄铁锭的存在,这让他不能不多想。 „Old Chai, you, if also works as the brothers me, this matter may probably keep secret for me ten million/countless.” Fat Storekeeper also realized obviously „situation is not wonderful”, has turned around looks like feared he ran held on Old Chai. “老柴,你要是还把我当兄弟,这事儿可千万要替我保密。”胖掌柜显然也意识到了“情况不妙”,转过身就像是怕他跑了似的一把拉住了老柴。 „Wants me to keep secret for you also good, you must tell me what's the matter.” Old Chai narrows the eye, in the bean bean eye is glittering the astute light. “要我替你保密也行,你得告诉我到底是怎么回事。”老柴眯起眼睛,豆豆眼里闪烁着精明的光。 „Yeah ~, since were seen by you, I was also open about the facts you. Actually is such...... that side Eastern Qian discovered a giant profound iron mineral lode...... the profound iron ore reserves...... the preparation......” “哎~既然都被你看到了,那我也就不瞒你了。其实是这样的……东乾那边发现了一个巨型玄铁矿脉……玄铁矿储量……准备……” A fat Storekeeper face „annoying”, drew Storekeeper Chai to the corner in then mentioned intimate conversation. This and that explained, he seriously urged: „Is important, this matter your oneself knows well, but cannot tell others.” 胖掌柜一脸“懊恼”,把柴掌柜拉到角落里便说起了悄悄话。这样那样地解释了一通之后,他才表情严肃地叮嘱道:“事关重大,这事儿你自己知道就好,可千万不能告诉别人。” „Relax ~ was more than hundred years of youngest brothers, were you untrustworthy I?” “放心吧~都是百多年的老兄弟了,你还信不过我吗？” The Storekeeper Chai mouth readily agrees, has actually started to calculate at heart. 柴掌柜嘴里一口答应,心里却已经开始盘算开了。 Eastern Qian Country discovered the reserves such big giant profound iron mineral lode, the Immortal Dynasty profound iron spindle price must certainly fall. 东乾国发现了储量这么大的巨型玄铁矿脉,仙朝的玄铁锭价格肯定要跌。 In Yuchi Clan was also the grain bin many profound iron spindles, he must hurry to tell Family Head this matter, making Family Head hurry to sell out the profound iron spindle in Yuchi Clan is good. Otherwise, waits for the profound iron spindle price to fall, their family/home may owe in a big way. 尉迟氏手里也是囤了不少玄铁锭的,他得赶紧把这件事情告诉家主,让家主赶紧把尉迟氏手里的玄铁锭卖掉才行。不然,等玄铁锭价格跌下来,他们家可就亏大了。 In Immortal City the various great aristocratic families informer was usually quick, although Storekeeper Chai only passed on to oneself Family Head the news, as these ox carts drive into Immortal City, Eastern Qian Country discovered that the giant profound iron mineral lode the news still disappeared without a trace, private spread over entire Immortal City quietly. 仙城内各大世家耳目素来灵通,尽管柴掌柜只将消息转告了自家家主,但随着这一辆辆牛车驶入仙城,东乾国发现巨型玄铁矿脉的消息仍是不胫而走,私悄悄地传遍了整个仙城。 One carefully designs well „drama”, began. 一场精心设计好的“大戏”,也就此拉开了序幕。 ...... …… Meanwhile. 与此同时。 Northern Territory Royal Residence, in Spirit Bamboo Garden. 北域王府,灵竹园中。 Northern Territory Prince and Yun Mengyu are invited along in the one side, but Immortal Dynasty real power department Immortal Soldiers Division Division Head South Guarding Prince, is playing chess with Wang Fugui. 北域王和妘梦羽在一旁作陪,而仙朝实权部门仙兵部的部长镇南王,则是在和王富贵下棋。 South Guarding Prince plays chess while said: „Fugui/riches and honor, in the last wave of this plan, our Immortal Soldiers Division also took certain risk, the profound iron spindle of harvest divides one to give us Immortal Soldiers Division, otherwise my other department is not good to balance.” 镇南王边下棋边说道:“富贵啊,这计划的最后一波中,我们仙兵部也是冒了一定风险的,收获的玄铁锭得多分一份给我们仙兵部,不然我这其他部门不好平衡。” „Can your highness break a contract?” The Wang Fugui eye does not lift, serene is falling the child son, „I am indifferent, but passed on the time comes, feared that your highness reputation is not good.” “殿下是要违约么？”王富贵眼睛都不抬,云淡风轻地落着子儿,“我是无所谓的,只是到时候传了出去,怕殿下名声不好。” „You......” South Guarding Prince was mad results in the beard to turn upwards, begins to say dispiritedly, „brat, this Royal this isn't discussing with you? After all our Immortal Soldiers Division is not only then a Profound Armor Division division, Profound Armor Division eats the meat, can other departments follow to eat a soup?” “你……”镇南王被气得胡子翘起,怏怏地落子道,“臭小子,本王这不是在与你商量么？毕竟我们仙兵部可不是只有玄甲司一个司,玄甲司吃肉,其他部门总得跟着喝点汤吧？” He is also enough depressed. 他也是够郁闷的。 Solemn South Guarding Prince, must visit unexpectedly in a kindly manner personally and a young hairy child discussed that changes the contract. 堂堂镇南王,居然得好声好气地亲自上门来和一个小毛孩商量改契约。 „Eats a soup, this is the minor matter.” Wang Fugui begins, does not need South Guarding Prince to respond, he puts forward the condition saying that „this soup, naturally cannot drink white/in vain, can strive? Each department adds three hundred Item Refiner again, supports the development of our barren Eastern Qian small place.” “喝点汤啊,这都是小事。”王富贵落子,不待镇南王反应,他就提条件道,“不过这汤呢,自然也不能白喝,总得出点力吧？每个部门再加三百炼器师,去支援我们贫瘠东乾小地方的发展建设。” „Your this brat, is really anything eats, is the least bit does not suffer a loss! this Royal told you, you do this will lose this Royal.” South Guarding Prince foams with rage, is ferocious. “你这臭小子,真是什么都吃,就是半点不吃亏！本王告诉你,你这样做会失去本王的。”镇南王吹胡子瞪眼,凶相毕露。 „South Guarding Prince, this is in the this Royal mansion.” Nearby Northern Territory Prince hearing this is not dry immediately, stares to support Fugui/riches and honor, „light eats the soup not to strive, where has such good deed? Who must have the opinion, making him look for this Royal to raise.” “镇南王,这可是在本王的府里。”旁边的北域王闻言顿时不干了,瞪眼力挺富贵,“光吃汤不出力,哪有此等好事？谁要有意见,让他找本王来提。” Northern Territory Prince be older than South Guarding Prince, was grows he ten several generations of elders, the speech naturally quite had the weight/quantity. 北域王年龄要比镇南王大许多,乃是长了他十好几辈的长辈,说话自然颇有分量。 „okay okay, each department adds three hundred Item Refiner, is not only several years, quick returned.” South Guarding Prince quite complies reluctantly, somewhat is immediately annoying, „blames the this Royal heart being straight, your boy plan is never so expected that big, it is expected that the profit is so high...... the regret should not sign the contract. Right Fugui/riches and honor, our Royal Residence also several small Miss admire you, wants to become friends with you......” “行行行,每个部门加三百炼器师,不就是区区几年时间吗,很快就回了。”镇南王颇为无奈地答应,随即又有些懊恼,“都怪本王心直,没想到你小子计划那么大,预计利润那么高……悔不该签契约啊。对了富贵,我们王府也有几个小姑娘仰慕你,想与你交朋友……” „!” “啪！” Wang Fugui begins, the sigh said: „Your highness heart is not static, you lost.” 王富贵落子,叹息说:“殿下心不静,你输了。” „......” “……” South Guarding Prince took a look at the checkerboard to look at the little while, an expression stiffness, at heart was helpless. 镇南王瞅着棋盘看了会儿,表情一阵僵硬,心里更是无奈。 He was said by Wang Fugui, is the heart is not indeed static. Who called his lineage unable to have small Princess in this during...... 他被王富贵说中了,的确是心不静。谁叫他这一脉在这当口没能出一个小公主呢…… „Your highness, the net had dispersed, your goes back to coordinate the plan well. Was all right must run toward me not, was too garish.” Wang Fugui entrusts to say seriously, „is exhausted you to develop well, what developed to pound the loss was your Immortal Soldiers Division.” “殿下,网已经撒开了,你这就回去好好配合计划吧。没事莫要往我这边跑了,太扎眼。”王富贵郑重其事地嘱托道,“劳烦您好好演,演砸了损失的是你们仙兵部。” „Good, this Royal my......” “好,本王我这就……” South Guarding Prince just set out to prepare to walk, suddenly thought that is not quite right. 镇南王刚起身准备走,忽然觉得不太对。 Does oneself listen to the words of this little fellow? This small evildoer/monstrous talent much are big, has this skill ~ wait/etc. he to grow up, this Immortal Dynasty. 自己怎么就这么听这小家伙的话？这小妖孽才多大啊,就已经有这本事了~等他长大了,这仙朝。 Feared that must have the gale. 怕是要起大风了。
