Dongling City.
There is only a two-foot-wide suspension bridge connecting Hedong and Hexi.
Under the suspension bridge is the Nu River that divides the entire Dongling City into two.
The Nu River is named Nu because the waves in this river are extremely rough, the undercurrent is rapid, and the reefs are densely covered.
The river is filled with snow-white foam-like waves.
Walking on the suspension bridge, even if it is still the dry season in the cave, you can still hear the sound of extremely fast waves hitting the rocks and rock walls under your feet.
Facing the hard rocks and rock walls, the waves were instantly broken into snow-like foam.
Jiang Ning raised his head and glanced at the magnificent city wall in front of him, and couldn't help but secretly marvel at the dangerous geographical location east of the river.
Donngling City, as its name suggests, is located in a mountainous area.
It is built based on the natural and dangerous terrain.
The rapidity of the Nu River almost eliminated the possibility of attacking Dongcheng District by water.
The only thing connecting Dongcheng District is the two-foot-wide suspension bridge.
Once the suspension bridge is raised, there is no way to enter the city.
Not to mention, Dongcheng District also built a twenty-foot-high city wall based on the dangerous terrain along the river.
A city wall of such height is difficult for birds to cross.
This can only be achieved in the feudal environment where personal power belongs to oneself.
Jiang Ning crossed the three-foot-wide suspension bridge, paid the entrance fee to Dongcheng District at the city gate, and then stepped into Dongcheng District, where every inch of land is precious.
Walk on the wide road.
"Selling cooking cakes, selling cooking cakes, big cooking cakes just out of the oven"
"Selling bean curds, Dongshi's bean curds."
"Roasted kidneys are a woman's favorite and a man's weapon."
"."
Walking in the bustling downtown of Dongcheng District, listening to the cries of sales, Jiang Ning suddenly felt a sense of excitement. It gave me the illusion that I was back in the inner city of Luoshui County.
Then, smelling the fragrance of green onions wafting from the tip of his nose, he couldn't help but secrete some saliva from his mouth.
“Boss, here are two pancakes!”
"Okay!!"
"Chenghui, thirty cents!!"
"So expensive?" Jiang Ning frowned.
He also knows the prices.
Last year in Luoshui County, even though food prices rose slightly, it was only five cents per tael.
Now, although it is in the county town of Dongling County, the price is on average higher than that in the county town, but it is still a bit outrageous to triple it.
According to his understanding, ordinary people work hard and only earn twenty or thirty cents for a day of part-time work.
In other words, after working hard for a day, you can only buy one or two cakes.
In his opinion, this is a bit outrageous.
"The guests are from outside, right?" the cake cook said.
"Not bad, I just came to Dongling City!" Jiang Ning nodded.
“That’s not surprising!” the pancake chef said with a smile: “Donngling City’s terrain is not good, and most of the food is imported. The cost of shipping from outside increases. And then this is Dongcheng District again, and the guests You should also know that things in Dongcheng District are generally more expensive than those in Xicheng District. After all, the stall fee and the entrance fee are also expenses. "
Hearing this, Jiang Ning nodded, understanding.
He then took out a piece of broken silver, about half a tael, from the Sumeru Ring.
“No need to look for it!” Leaving the broken silver behind, Jiang Ning took the cooking cakes wrapped in oil paper and walked towards the address Bai Luoyu had left for him.
"Thank you, noble man! Thank you, noble man!!" The cake maker behind him grabbed the broken silver and bowed repeatedly to Jiang Ning's back.
Half a tael of broken silver is equivalent to five hundred coins.
This is equivalent to the lucky money I earned from setting up a stall selling cooking cakes in the past half month.
All the way.
Jiang Ning grabbed the oil paper, bit into the cooking cakes one by one, and walked towards the address Bai Luoyu told him in advance.
Before coming to Dongling City, he already knew the map of Dongling City like the back of his hand and had already memorized it all in his mind.
As we move forward, the terrain continues to climb.
The White House.
Look at the two words on the gilt plaque in front of you.
"This should be it!" Jiang Ning glanced at the restaurant not far away again and whispered in his heart.
Above the clouds.
That's the name of the restaurant.
It is also a landmark in the east part of Dongling City.
It was also the location Bai Luoyu told him in advance.
At the same time.
Outside the Bai Mansion, the two sword-wielding guards guarding the gate immediately cheered up when they saw Jiang Ning approaching.
“Stop, whoever is coming!”
One of them held a scabbard and signaled Jiang Ning to stop.
Jiang Ning handed over his hand: "I'm in Jiangning, Xialuoshui County. Please go and inform Brother Bai that I'm here to visit him!"
Hearing this, the two looked at each other.
"Brother Bai!" One of them spoke with his lips slightly open.
The person suddenly nodded slightly.
Then he looked at Jiang Ning: "This distinguished guest, please wait a moment. Mr. Bai should not have had his lunch break yet, so I will inform you right now!"
After saying this, then The man turned around, crossed the threshold, and walked slowly and hurriedly towards the inner courtyard.
The title Jiang Ning just said made him dare not ignore it.
Dialogue Inspectors who dare to treat each other as brothers are either blind idiots or real big shots.
He didn’t dare to gamble.
Looking at the back of the man who went to report, Jiang Ning stood there and waited patiently.
It only takes a moment.
Before the martial arts guard who went to report the matter came back, Bai Luoyu's figure appeared in Jiang Ning's eyes.
In the blink of an eye, Bai Luoyu walked through the spacious front yard and appeared at the door.
"Brother Jiang!!" Bai Luoyu's face suddenly showed a look of joy, like a spring breeze.
"Brother Bai, I'm here to bother you today!" Jiang Ning cupped his hands and smiled.
“What are you talking about!” Bai Luoyu crossed the threshold and appeared in front of Jiang Ning in a few steps.
Although his steps are big, they are not inconsistent at all.
"Come on, come and have a drink with me, and I'll take care of you!!" Bai Luoyu grabbed Jiang Ning's sleeve and dragged her toward the house.
“Okay, follow Brother Bai’s arrangement!” Jiang Ning smiled.
At the same time.
The two guarding martial arts masters watched Jiang Ning and Bai Luoyu step into the mansion, their eyes met, and a flash of joy flashed in their eyes.
I am glad that I am not powerless and arrogant.
The two of them also remembered Jiang Ning's appearance deeply at this moment.
They knew that the person who could attract such attention from Bai Luoyu must be a big shot.
Inner courtyard.
"Brother Jiang, this wine is called Qiongjiang Yuye. Try it!" Bai Luoyu filled a glass of turquoise wine and raised her hand to signal Jiang Ning to taste it.
The wine in the wine glass is like green emerald, especially when there is no wind, it is like a piece of solidified emerald.
"Let me try it!" Jiang Ning picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
“Good wine!” Jiang Ning nodded.
"Brother Jiang, you are not sincere!" Bai Luoyu looked at Jiang Ning, and then said seriously: "Seeing that Brother Jiang looks worried, has something happened?"
< br>Hearing this, Jiang Ning smiled bitterly, and then said: "It seems that I can't hide it from Brother Bai."
"Brother Jiang, let's hear it!" Bai Luoyu put down the wine Gu in his hand and motioned Jiang Ning to sit down.
After the two sat down, Jiang Ning immediately told everything that had happened before.
Not long after.
"What did I think it was?" Bai Luoyun smiled suddenly, and then he continued: "Leave this matter to me. If your eldest brother and sister-in-law lose a hair, I will mention it. Come and see you!”
“In Dongling City, if it is really what Yu Manyun did, this little Yu Manyun will not be able to change the world!”
"She bumped into me several times. I beheaded Shuiyue Sword Palace in the street and I had to hold back my anger."
Hearing Bai Luoyu's words, Jiang Ning's eyes suddenly flashed with surprise.
If Bai Luoyu did not brag exaggeratedly, he felt that he had underestimated Bai Luoyu before.
Bai Luoyu couldn't help but smile when she saw the flash of look in Jiang Ning's eyes.
“Brother Jiang, do you think I’m bragging?”
Jiang Ning said: "No, I just feel a little shocked and can't believe it!"
"Brother Jiang is being polite!" Bai Luoyu smiled.
Then he stood up, looked in the direction of the capital, and said loudly: "Brother Jiang, you have to understand one thing, this world is still the world of Daxia!"
"I am He is a sixth-grade official and holds an important position. , holds great power and is a senior official."
"No matter how strong Xiao Qiushui is in Shuiyue Sword Palace, no matter how famous she is, she is not a master after all, and she is not qualified to be free. Under the power of Daxia.”
"Whenever she leaves the pavilion, I, the Great Xia Grandmaster, can cut off her path to become a Grandmaster, make her fall into the Shuiyue Sword Palace, and destroy her Shuiyue Sword Palace!"
Hearing Bai Luoyu say this After such a powerful speech, Jiang Ning felt that he still seemed to have underestimated the Daxia court.
Da Xia was able to dominate the world for more than 800 years, not only by reason, but also by the oppression of power.
In front of Daxia, the small fourth-level martial arts is simply not enough.
He immediately stood up, cupped his hands and said: "Then please leave this matter to Brother Bai!"
"There's no need to be so open-minded!" Bai Luoyu waved her hand.
Then he said: "By the way, where are your eldest brother and sister-in-law and their family now."
"Linjiang Tower!"
"Linjiang Tower? A place like this ?" Bai Luoyu looked surprised, and then nodded clearly: "Yes, Jiang My brother is a native of Luoshui County, and there is no house in Dongling City."
Jiang Ning said: "That's right, so I also plan to buy a house in the east of the city. Unfortunately, I am short of time now. There is no time to stay here for so long.”
"Brother Jiang, if you want to buy a house, I have a way here, and it will be quick, in one or two hours at most. Do you think it's possible?" Bai Luoyu said.
"An hour or two?" Jiang Ning looked at Bai Luoyu, and then nodded: "That's okay!"
Go back to find Wang Jin and take him to heal. Although it is important, placement A good big brother, sister-in-law and a good family are more important.
In Dongcheng District, it is closer to Bai Luoyu, and Bai Luoyu can better protect his elder brother and sister-in-law.
Bai Luoyu looked at Jiang Ning and nodded, then clapped her hands: "Xiaomei!"
As Bai Luoyu spoke, the ajar door was suddenly pushed open.
A girl in a white dress walked in: "Master!"
Bai Luoyu said: "Go and call Wang Fugui! He must appear within half an hour. In front of me! At the same time, he told him to bring the registration of the house for sale in Chengdong District. "It's the owner!" The woman responded and walked out immediately.
"Brother Bai, who is Wang Fugui?" Jiang Ning asked.
Bai Luoyu smiled and said: "He is the land deed official and is in charge of the land deed transactions in Dongling City. He has the most complete information. He has information records on all the houses for sale in the east of the city."
"Brother Jiang, just be patient and drink with me. He will appear in front of us in half an hour at most!"
"Okay!" Jiang Ning nodded.
Less than two quarters of an hour.
A fat man with a big belly appeared in front of the two of them, panting.
"Inspector Bai!" Wang Fugui swallowed and suppressed the heavy breath that was about to come out of his chest.
"Wang Fugui, have you brought the things?" Bai Luoyu picked up the folding fan on the table and stood up to speak.
"Inspector Bai, brought it!" Wang Fugui nodded immediately.
Then he placed the purple gold box he was holding on the table in front of him.
"Inspector Bai, the registration information of all the houses for sale in the east of the city is in it. Sir, please take a look!"
"I don't have the time to look!" Bai Luoyu opened the folding fan in his hand and shook it gently, then he said: "I asked my brother to tell me the request, and you can find me a suitable residence yourself."
"No problem, Inspector Bai!" Wang Fugui immediately raised his chest and said: "I have memorized the information about the houses everywhere in the city. I only need to put forward the conditions. I will definitely find any house that I meet."
"Okay. !" Bai Luoyu nodded.
Then he looked at Jiang Ning: "Brother Jiang, please tell me your requirements for the house."
Wang Fugui also looked at Jiang Ning at this time, and said respectfully: "This is Sir, you want to buy a house! I don’t know what this gentleman’s name is.”
"Jiang Ning!" Jiang Ning said with cupped hands.
“It turns out to be Mr. Jiang!” Wang Fugui looked respectful.
What kind of people, what kind of friends to make.
He knew that the friends made by people like Bai Xunshi, who could be called brothers, must be extraordinary.
So even if he didn't know Jiang Ning at this time, he didn't dare to have the slightest contempt.
Then Wang Fugui continued to respectfully say: "Master Jiang, please tell me the conditions for choosing a house, and I will help you think about it."
Jiang Ning thought for a while, and then said: "Near the water, the larger the area, the better, and the further away from here, the better." The closer, the better!"
"Brother Jiang's choice, I like it!" Bai Luoyu folded the folding fan in his hand, then he touched his palm and chuckled.
He looked at Wang Fugui again: "Do you hear me clearly? The closer to my residence, the better!"
"Understood!" Wang Fugui nodded repeatedly.
He pondered for a moment.
Then he opened the purple-gold wooden box in front of him and rummaged through the box to find the land deed.
A moment later.
He picked up a land deed and came to Bai Luoyu and Jiang Ning.
"Two adults, please take a look! This house was originally a house that belonged to my family. Last year, the house was ransacked by Bai Inspector, and the house was confiscated. Now both land deeds are with me, regardless of whether Whether it’s the geographical location or other things, it should meet Mr. Jiang’s requirements. The key is that it is less than one mile away from Inspector Bai’s home.”
"He sir?" Bai Luoyu looked suspicious, and then he said: "Is it He Guangkun?"
"It's him!" Liu Fugui said.
“Bring me the land deed!” Bai Luoyu said.
"Yes!" Liu Fugui nodded immediately and handed the land deed in his hand to Bai Luoyu.
Bai Luoyu took the land deed and looked at it twice, then nodded.
"Brother Jiang, take a look!"
Taking the land deed handed over by Bai Luoyu, Jiang Ning glanced at it twice and nodded immediately.
On the land deed, not only the size of the house is marked, but also the surrounding landforms.
In Dongling City, the tributaries of the Nu River pass through the entire Dongcheng District.
The tributaries were also channeled.
In the painting on the land deed, a river one foot wide passes through the side of the house.
It can be said that it is surrounded by mountains and rivers.
And the area of this house is also very good.
It is larger than his house in Luoshui County, covering six and a half acres, which means it covers an area of more than 4,300 square meters. (End of this chapter)
