Fairy, Please Let Me Explain - #565 - Chapter 539 Disposal of the underground palace survivors

Tian’an General Assembly is a hundred feet high, with a total of nineteen floors. Clouds and mist can be seen on the top floor.

As a chamber of commerce, it seems a bit too grand, but it would be much more reasonable to understand it as the location of the financial headquarters of an empire.

The main hall on the first floor of the Tian’an General Assembly is more than twenty feet high. Twelve towering beams and columns with carved beams and paintings support the huge dome. There are not many people coming and going inside, but it is very quiet, with the majesty of the magnificent piles. Most of the merchants here lowered their voices and even their footsteps, including Xu Yuan and Bai Muxi.

Xu Yuan walked in front, and Bai Muxi followed silently with his head lowered.

The two of them walked in silence.

The atmosphere was depressing and stagnant, because Xu Yuan’s words just now were really a bit harsh, they were just knocks, but they were more of a naked threat.

Xu Yuan didn’t want to do this, but he had to do it.

The relationship between him and Xiaobai is that of a young master and a maid, but more importantly, they are that of the prince of the prime minister’s mansion and the commander of the underground palace.

Although they are both the same person, the meaning of the words spoken by the two identities are completely different.

If it was a daily chat as a master and servant, Xu Yuan could turn a blind eye no matter what Xiaobai did, rely on tea skills to seduce him, use tea skills to bully other Tian Yan, etc. Xu Yuan didn’t care.

But if Bai Muxi came to talk as the Underground Palace Commander, Xu Yuan would have to pay attention to it. As for what Bai Muxi just said, it was obvious that he said it in his capacity as the Underground Palace Commander.

Again,

Loyalty exchanged for interests will eventually return to interests.

Bai Muxi always talked about kindness. Although Xu Yuan never denied it, he was still clear in his heart.

Gratitude is worthless, it is too abstract.

If you don’t repay it yet, how you repay it all depends on the character of the person who received the favor.

Therefore, when the underground palace was completed, Xu Yuan directly set the tone for the transaction.

This is not a favor, this is an exchange of interests.

The Prime Minister’s Mansion worked hard to rescue the survivors of the underground palace, and the survivors of the Underground Palace worked hard for the Prime Minister’s Mansion.

As a maid, Xiaobai is very naive, but as the underground palace commander, Bai Muxi has a high level of political literacy.

In the past few months, relying on the information from the Prime Minister, she was like a sponge absorbing a lot of knowledge about the earth’s surface.

She clearly understood the value of the survivors of the underground palace to the current Prime Minister’s Mansion, so she wanted to change the “contract” and seek greater benefits for her people.

After all, the gap in status and benefits between a “Palu” who is a vassal of the Prime Minister’s Mansion and a partner who is a partner of the Prime Minister’s Mansion is not the slightest.

Tianan Association, like Lou Ji’s Black Prison, is divided into three areas: heaven, earth, and people. However, the difference is that each area of ​​Tianan Association is subdivided into four levels: A, B, C, and D. There are many products in each level. Categories increase in order from floor to floor according to business scale.

Holding the tokens of Heaven Level A, the two of them arrived in silence all the way to the seventeenth floor, which was the floor where Heaven Level A was located. As they continued to move upward, the two of them were pushed by a gentle force. return.

It’s a formation.

The eighteenth floor is the most mysterious Qiuzhen Pavilion of the Tianan Chamber of Commerce. It is not open to the public at ordinary times. It will only be open to holders of the first-class heaven-level tokens when the biennial Tianji Auction is held.

With thoughts in mind, Xu Yuan tried to use the soul key in the inner courtyard of the Prime Minister’s Mansion to communicate with the formation. He stepped forward again, but the gentle strength was no longer there.

really.

The soul key in the inner courtyard of the Prime Minister’s Mansion can not only be used unimpeded in the Black Prison, but it can also be used in the Tianan Association.

With a slight smile, Xu Yuangang walked a few steps along the stairs, and a low voice finally sounded in his ears:

“Young Master, Mu Xi realizes his mistake.”

His footsteps stopped for a moment, Xu Yuan chuckled and replied:

“Without talking for so long, I thought Master Si Ming had lost his temper? But think about it, no one would be happy when faced with that kind of threat.”

Going up the stairs, Bai Muxi’s voice was very low:

“Mu Xi doesn’t dare.”

Xu Yuan snorted softly, turned his eyes and glanced at Xiaobai beside him, and said softly:

“Why don’t you dare? I know what you are thinking. Let’s just discuss the matter. What you want is actually quite reasonable. After all, the survivors of the underground palace are indeed of great value to my Prime Minister’s Mansion.

“But Bai Muxi, not all reasonable demands in this world can be satisfied.”

Bai Muxi carefully raised her eyes to look at Xu Yuan, but when she saw that he was looking at her, she immediately lowered her eyes:

“Mu Xi is willing to listen to the master’s arrangements.”

“You don’t have to pretend to be a snake with me here.”

Xu Yuan directly interrupted Bai Muxi’s words and said directly:

“I will make it clear to you directly. The agreement we made with you in the underground palace can be changed, but it will not be possible in the past thirty years. During this period, the survivors of the underground palace must unconditionally obey any instructions from the prime minister.”

After a moment of silence, Bai Muxi asked softly:

“Young Master, are you serious about what you say?”

“Thirty years is just a guarantee.”

Xu Yuan looked directly at Bai Muxi and smiled: “Rescuing you from that dark underground palace, even if it costs a generation, this deal should be a good deal, right?”

“.”

Bai Muxi did not answer these words and remained silent.

Xu Yuan frowned slightly when he saw this, snorted and laughed:

“You don’t look like you’re happy about it?”

Bai Muxi took a deep breath, raised her eyes and said:

“Sir, Mu Xi has already understood the situation in Great Yan. Based on Mr. Xiangguo’s recent arrangements, war will most likely be inevitable, and most of Mu Xi’s tribe will inevitably become the frontline soldiers. If this is the case.”

“But without my intervention, the few cultivators in your underground palace are not enough to defeat a mortal ghost. They will be devoured within a few decades, leaving no one alive.”

“.” Bai Muxi was silent.

Arrive at the 18th floor and continue upward.

Seeing that Bai Muxi remained silent, Xu Yuan took a deep breath, suddenly stopped, turned back to look at her, and murmured softly:

“It seems that I am still a little too gentle.”

Bai Muxi trembled when she heard this.

Seeing this, Xu Yuan patted her shoulder gently and whispered:

“Don’t be afraid, I’m not angry, but you know me. I’ve never been patient.”

“Sir.” Bai Muxi pursed her red lips.

“Shut up.”

Xu Yuan’s tone dropped slightly:

“I’m a little annoyed now. I no longer want to care about your underground palace affairs, so I will just give you a choice.

“First, be honest and obedient.

“Second, I hand this matter over to my father, and he will talk to you.”

Xu Yuan stared into her eyes and said softly:

“My father already knows about the situation in the underground palace. He wanted to intervene in this matter before, but I was temporarily blocked.”

“.”

Bai Muxi’s eyes widened slightly, and the look in her eyes flickered rapidly.

Xu Yuan slowly retracted his hand and said softly:

“You may think my request is unreasonable, but that’s because you haven’t seen my father’s methods. Mu Xi, compared to his old man, I am really kind to you.

“I can tell you what happens when he takes over.

“You high-level and middle-level people will be directly controlled and even executed.

“Hundreds of thousands of underground palace survivors will be split into hundreds or even thousands of families of different sizes and scattered throughout Great Yan, but practitioners will be disrupted and organized into the Black Lin Army for brainwashing.

“Most of your people will indeed be able to survive by then, but within twenty years, they will all be broken up by the Prime Minister’s Mansion, chewed up and swallowed for digestion, and will directly become history.”

Speaking of this, Xu Yuan smiled lowly, as if he thought of something very funny:

“Of course, you can also try to resist him, try to contact other forces in Dayan and try to join him, if you can do it under his nose.”
