Chapter 338 Meeting Bai Luoyu
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 Tangling City into two.
The reason why the Nu River is named "Nu" is 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 reefs and rock walls, the waves were instantly broken into white snow foam-like sprays.
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.
Dongling 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.
And connecting Dongcheng District, there is only the two-foot-wide suspension bridge.
Once the drawbridge is raised, there is no way to enter the city.
Not to mention, Dongcheng District 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 at a premium.
Walk on the wide road.
"Selling cooking cakes, selling cooking cakes, big cooking cakes just out of the oven"
"Selling bean curd, Dong Shi's bean curd."
"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 had the illusion that he had returned to 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!!"
"Shenghui, thirty cents!!"
"So expensive?" Jiang Ning frowned.
He also understands prices.
Last year in Luoshui County, even though food prices rose slightly, it was only five cents per tael.
Now, although in the county seat of Dongling County, prices are on average higher than in the county seat, but tripling it is still a bit outrageous.
According to his understanding, ordinary people work hard and only earn twenty or thirty cents for a day's work.
In other words, after working hard for a day, you can only buy one or two cakes.
In his opinion, this was a bit outrageous.
"The guests are from outside, right?" the cake maker said.
"Not bad, I just came to Dongling City!" Jiang Ning nodded.
"That's not surprising!" The cake cook said with a smile: "Donngling City has a bad terrain, and most of the food is imported. The cost of shipping from outside increases. And then this is Dongcheng District. Guests should also know that Dongcheng District Things are generally more expensive than those in Xicheng District. After all, stall fees and city entry fees are also expenses. "
Hearing this, Jiang Ning nodded, understanding in his heart.
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 cake wrapped in oil paper and walked towards the address Bai Luoyu had left for him.
"Thank you, noble man! Thank you, noble man!!" The pancake maker behind him grabbed the broken silver and bowed repeatedly to Jiang Ning's back.
Half a tael of broken silver is equal to five hundred coins.
This is equivalent to the hard money I earned from setting up a stall selling cooking cakes in the past half month.
Along the way.
Jiang Ning grabbed the oiled 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.
White House.
Look at the two words on the gilt plaque in front of you.
"It should be right here!" Jiang Ning glanced at the restaurant not far away 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 that Bai Luoyu had 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 comes!"
One of them held a scabbard and signaled Jiang Ning to stop.
Jiang Ning held up his hand and said, "I'm in Jiang Ning, Xia Luoshui 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.
One person immediately 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 him right away!"
After saying this, 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 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!!" A look of joy suddenly appeared on Bai Luoyu's face, 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 were large, they were 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 looked like green emerald, especially when there was no wind, it looked 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?"
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.
Soon after.
"What did I think it was?" Bai Luoyun smiled, and then he continued: "Leave this matter to me. If your eldest brother, sister-in-law and your family lose a hair, I will raise my head to 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 killed Shuiyue Sword Palace in the street. I still need to hold back my anger."
Hearing Bai Luoyu's words, Jiang Ning's eyes suddenly flashed with surprise.
If Bai Luoyu didn't brag and exaggerate, he felt like 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!"
"As a sixth-grade official, I hold an important position and hold great power. I am a senior official."
"No matter how strong Xiao Qiushui of his Shuiyue Sword Palace is, no matter how famous she is, she is not a grandmaster after all. She is not a grandmaster. She is not qualified to be free from 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!"
After hearing Bai Luoyu's powerful speech, Jiang Ning felt that he still 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 was 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, sister-in-law and family now?"
"Linjiang Tower!"
"Linjiang Tower? This kind of place?" Bai Luoyu looked surprised, and then nodded clearly: "Yes, Brother Jiang is a native of Luoshui County, and there is no residence in Dongling City."
Jiang Ning said: "That's right, so I also plan to buy a house in the east of the city. Unfortunately, time is tight now and I don't have 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, then nodded: "That's okay!"
It is important to go back to find Wang Jin and take him to heal, but it is more important to settle the elder brother, sister-in-law and his family.
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 to me! He must appear in front of me within half an hour! At the same time, I told him to bring the registration of the house for sale in Chengdong District."
"It's the master!" 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 officer 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 in his hands 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 time to take a look!" Bai Luoyu opened the folding fan in his hand and shook it gently, and then said: "I will ask my brother to tell me the request, and you can find a suitable residence for me."
"No problem, Inspector Bai!" Wang Fugui suddenly raised his chest and said, "I have memorized the information on the houses everywhere in the city. I only need to put forward the conditions. I will definitely find any houses that I meet. ”
"Okay!" Bai Luoyu nodded.
Then he looked at Jiang Ning: "Brother Jiang, tell me your requirements for the house."
Wang Fugui also looked at Jiang Ning at this time, and said respectfully: "This gentleman wants to buy a house! I don't know his surname."
"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 Inspector Bai, who could be called brothers, must be extraordinary.
So at this time, even if he didn't know Jiang Ning, he didn't dare to have the slightest contempt.
Then Wang Fugui continued to say respectfully: "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: "Close to the water, the bigger the area, the better, and the closer it is to this place, the better!"
"Brother Jiang's choice, I like it!!" The folding fan in Bai Luoyu's hand immediately closed with a "swipe" sound, and then he touched his palm and chuckled.
He looked at Wang Fugui again: "Do you hear me clearly? The closer to my mansion, 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.
After a while.
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, whether it is the geographical location or other They should all 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 asked: "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, look at it!"
After taking the land deed from Bai Luoyu, Jiang Ning glanced at it and nodded immediately.
The land deed not only indicates the size of the house, but also the surrounding landforms.
In Dongling City, 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 size of this house is also very good.
It is larger than his house in Luoshui County, covering a full six and a half acres, which means it covers an area of more than 4,300 square meters. (End of chapter)
