Ninth Grade Jailer: He actually went on a blind date with the leader of the Demon Cult at the beginn

The three of you all have the same idea. The Demonic Cult, which has always been dominant in southern Xinjiang, cannot stop the imperial court's subsequent attack, right?

Li Nuo asked, no longer embarrassing these shopkeepers with extremely obvious physical features.

It is still difficult for outsiders to interfere in the affairs between him and his wife.

Of course, he also believed that his wife would never do anything wrong to him.

Bai Xiaosheng, who had a big belly and a rich face, said as if he was sure of the opportunity: Yes, sir! But it is not easy for the court to mobilize troops. Yi Laonu reckons that this war will have to be delayed at least. The deadlock won’t be broken until next fall!”

Oh, why do you say that?

Li Nuo asked curiously.

Because the imperial court has no troops available, it will take at least three months to dispatch troops!

Bai Xiaosheng stretched out three fingers and said firmly, Spring will begin in three months. Southern Xinjiang and Wushan are not far away. There is absolutely no problem for the Demon Sect to persist for a few more months with the help of the Wu Clan. And as long as we wait for summer, then When the weather is hot and dry, fighting becomes more and more difficult. Therefore, we can only fight in one go when the weather is clear and crisp in autumn.

Bai Xiaosheng has been paying attention to the situation in southern Xinjiang, so his analysis is clear and logical.

The other two shopkeepers also nodded frequently, completely agreeing with Bai Xiaosheng's analysis.

But Li Nuo didn't think so.

Depending on the height of the station, the layout and vision will naturally be affected.

What kind of person is Cui Wuhui?

Since he dares to suppress the entire court with force and start this war, he must have a back-up plan!

Otherwise, once the war goes unfavorably, his position as Prime Minister will be unstable.

It's just that Li Nuo still can't guess what Cui Wugui's follow-up means will be.

It's not like Cui Wuhui risked his life, personally visited Southern Xinjiang, and used his great supernatural powers to uproot the entire Demon Sect and even Southern Xinjiang, and start over again, right?

After continuing to talk about the major forces in southern Xinjiang, both overt and covert, Li Nuo sent the three shopkeepers back.

Sir, my subordinates have received the news and the Nangong family is ready to take action.

Not long after, Lu Yihong came to the study and reported the matter with a solemn expression.

Nangong? What's wrong?

Li Nuo raised his head, his expression still as calm as an old dog.

For Nangong Ziyu's sake, he cooperated with the Jiangnan Nangong family in the winery business, and Lu Yihong was always taking care of the specific matters, while he himself could safely act as the hands-on shopkeeper.

Lu Yihong sighed: Well, didn't the young master cheat his death? As a result of such a fraud, the Nangong family couldn't sit still and wanted to take over the entire winery business... They sent many people to come to Chongqing for various reasons. The state winery was inspected, and they even launched a power, sex and money offensive, and took away several shopkeepers of our winery.

It's human nature for water to flow down and people to go up! But if we find this kind of person once, we will never hire him again for life.

Li Nuo was not angry.

Lu Yihong said worriedly: These are all secondary. The main thing is that the Nangong family also has people who are good at brewing wine. They have gradually figured out some of the secrets and secrets of [Immortal Drunk]. My subordinates are worried that our [Immortal Drunk] formula will I'm afraid that it won't take more than a year and a half for them to learn from me.

Li Nuo nodded.

He also heard a little bit about this matter.

In fact, I came up with this method of distillation and purification just to make a little money and make myself more comfortable.

Who would have thought that the business of this wine shop would grow bigger and bigger, and it would become his cornucopia, and all the wine would be sold to the North and the Western Regions.

But it is precisely because the business of the wine shop is getting better and better that there are so many pairs of eyes staring at it.

Moreover, don’t underestimate the wisdom of the ancients.

As long as they pass through some clues, they can analyze it almost exactly.

It has been more than half a year since his high-purity liquor came out.

The secret of the formula will naturally be cracked, and sooner or later the Nangong family will know it.

But since the Nangong family was unkind first, don’t blame him for being unjust later!

Let the Nangong family increase investment in the spirits workshop, and then take another step to remove the firepower and auction the Immortal Drunk formula directly!

As for the winery’s follow-up business...

Naturally, this cornucopia cannot be thrown away. After all, there are hundreds of thousands of people under his command who want to make a living with him!

And without the Nangong family, he still has many other families to cooperate with.

He has Caobang and Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce as his sales channels, and he is already in an invincible position.

Li Nuo also had a vague idea in his mind.

Back in the Star-Zhaing Tower, Li Taibai, the Master of Wine and Swordsman, had invited him to drink [Monkey Wine]. The taste... was absolutely unparalleled. It was the real spiritual wine and fairy wine!

If you can mix some [Monkey Wine] into the purified spirits, hehe, you will definitely win the competition from people in the world.

But I heard from Jiujianxian that he snatched it from the Monkey King of Huaguo Mountain...

Um.

The third-grade great demon monkey!

What’s more, there are four of them!

Only a drunkard like Jiu Jianxian could do such a cruel and inhumane thing.

Monkey, you don’t have monkey rights, all your family assets have been emptied!

Um.

I need to learn more about how the Jiu Sword Immortal behaves.

correct……

Monkey is monkey wine brewed in Huaguo Mountain, and Huaguo Mountain is a branch of Wanyao Mountain, which seems to be just above the East China Sea...

East China Sea?

I don’t know what happened to the Lingcai’er he invested in. Has he returned to the East China Sea safe and sound?

But with the help of the Mermaid Queen, it shouldn't be difficult to go to Donghai Huaguo Mountain by yourself, right?

As for those monster monkeys...

Of course he is not afraid.

After all, they have already been dealt with by the Jiujianxian, and even the monkey's incarnation was beheaded to death, so their strength will be greatly damaged. When the time comes, I will apply for the title of Wine and Sword Immortal and try my best to show off my power. Are you afraid that I won’t be able to get the [Monkey Wine]?

Please tell me, Master, how to deal with the Nangong family?

Seeing that Li Nuo was wandering in the sky for a long time without coming back to his senses, Lu Yihong reminded him aloud.

Li Nuo then calmed down and said with a smile: I have an idea. Is there any more famous auction house over there in Jiangnan?

Auction house?

Lu Yihong was a little confused.

Upon seeing this, Li Nuo made some gestures with his hands and explained briefly.

Only then did Lu Yihong suddenly realize.

But then he shook his head and said: The south of the Yangtze River is connected by land and water in all directions. Although we are rich and have many businesses, there is no auction house as big as what you said, Master, that can auction all kinds of treasures.

Today's auction houses are still just a rudimentary prototype, and they are all single-purpose purchases.

There is no comprehensive auction house as Li Nuo said.

Li Nuo was slightly surprised.

In this way, this auction house business can also be done.

Of course, the premise is that there must be something good that can fool those wealthy people who are stupid and have a lot of money to spend money like visiting a brothel.

So, what kind of treasure can arouse the interest of these rich people who regard money as dirt?

What haven’t the rich seen? Therefore, the price of this auction item must be high!

perfume?

cosmetic?

He doesn't have time to develop these.

And these things are nothing new, and there are many alternatives.

So……

East China Sea!

Li Nuo thought of the East China Sea again.

The existence of the sea tribe completely isolates humans from the sea. This prevents the good things in the deep sea from flowing into the Central Plains!

Night pearls, corals, ambergris... these treasures can really be transported to the Central Plains, and they can definitely be bought at high prices.

The plan has changed. Since there is no comprehensive auction house, we will build it ourselves. Over in Jiangnan, you send people to find the most prosperous land. Price is not an issue. Let the best craftsmen build it...

Li Nuo said excitedly, As for the auction items, you should pay attention to them these days, but you can let it out first and say that the formula of [Immortal Drunk] has been stolen. First, heat up the atmosphere, and then say that the thief is willing to auction [Immortal Drunk] For the formula, the one with the highest price will get it. How to operate it, you and the three shopkeepers will discuss it carefully...

This is truly a lucrative business!

Lu Yihong's eyes were shining!

Being able to preside over the specific operations of the entire Caogang, it is naturally not difficult for him to do just an auction house.

Traveling to the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce in the Sixteen Countries of the Western Region will provide a lot of auction items.

Moreover, with the support of the three Qingfeng Tower shopkeepers, information can even be auctioned!

Sir, my subordinates will take care of it immediately!

Action is worse than a heartbeat. At this time, Lu Yihong could no longer restrain his eagerness to move.

Old Lu, there's no need to be so impatient. Let's wait until after the new year. Just build the auction house within three months.

Seeing Lu Yihong's energetic look, Li Nuo chuckled.

When spring comes next year, he will go to Wushan.

Zi Yuan's condition can't be delayed. He must find the black butterfly on February 2nd to save Zi Yuan's life!

…

Later, Li Nuo quietly returned to Chang'an.

The moon and stars are sparse.

Li Nuo went directly to Qingyang Palace and heard several women chattering, and their voices were full of laughter.

Looking at Liu Xiangjun, whose complexion had become much more rosy, Li Nuo raised a happy smile on his lips.

These days, this foster sister is in trouble.

Liu Xiangjun dragged his exhausted body to take care of his posthumous matters.

But why is Ziyuan here?

Qingyang, Qingyang, you are posing a problem for me!

Li Nuo felt a little embarrassed.

Brother!

Liu Xiangjun's sharp eyes suddenly saw Li Nuo in his peripheral vision, and he hurriedly lifted up his plain skirt and flew away.

At this time, hot tears were rolling down his cheeks like no money.

Li Nuo said like coaxing a child: Be good, don't cry, otherwise you won't be beautiful!

Liu Xiangjun burst into tears and smiled: Brother! Did you really not go to Wolf City at that time?

As she said that, she looked at Li Nuo very curiously.

After all, the person lying in the coffin in the mourning hall at home clearly looks exactly like his brother!

Even the adoptive father can't tell the truth from the lies.

I didn't go, it was all a cover-up! If you enter the palace, who will be watching at home?

Li Nuo asked.

The foster father and Chen Can are here, as well as Sister Ziyuan's maid Hongyan.

Liu Xiangjun said.

Li Nuo nodded, then walked up to Zi Yuan and said awkwardly: Miss Zi Yuan...

There was a look of disappointment in Ziyuan's beautiful eyes: Mr. Li, I haven't seen you for just a few days, and you have become a lot different.

this……

How should I answer the call?

Li Nuo glanced at Qingyang with a slightly guilty look.

after all.

His relationship with Qingyang is semi-public.

Qingyang smiled generously and said: Okay, everyone is happy. The Chinese New Year will be here in a few days. Everyone should be happy.

Hey!

Qingyang is not stupid, he has long seen Zi Yuan's affection for Li Nuo.

Moreover, she is not an eldest lady. Once she marries into the Li family in the future, she will definitely have to fight against that eldest lady. Therefore, first win over Li Lang's sister-in-law and confidante, so that there is strength in numbers...

She doesn't bully others, but she must have the ability to protect herself!

This is a war between women, and men can't help.

Li Nuo didn't know that the dashing Qingyang actually had such a side.

He said to the girls: If nothing unexpected happens, tomorrow the court will send someone to announce the decree and posthumously confer me the title of Duke An.

Dong An Guo!

All the girls exclaimed.

Although Li Nuo was the crown prince and grand master of the current dynasty, and held a very popular position, it was only an official position. Once he retired, his official position would be gone.

And An Guogong, this is a title!

It was an ancestral motto that Dayin was neither a royal nor a king, so Duke An Guo became the highest-ranking title among ministers, and it was also a hereditary title!

Emperor Jingtai was quite generous.

When he thought about it, what was wrong with a dead man without any heirs being granted the title of hereditary Duke?

It just so happens that the courtiers can see his broad mind!

However, he did not expect that Li Zian was faking his death! This time, he will be in trouble at his grandma's house.

Because the position of the Duke is also related to the fate of the country!

Qingyang frowned and thought, his eyes filled with surprise: Do you want to... accept the reward tomorrow?

Li Nuo smiled and said: It is rare for our Majesty to be generous, so I will be disrespectful!

Ah……

Of course he has to get the dukedom of this country!

In terms of official position, he was overshadowed by Cui Xiang, but in terms of title, it was just the opposite. Cui Wuhui was awarded the title of Marquis Wen.

In this way, on the surface, he and Cui Wuhui were evenly matched.

After chatting some more about home affairs with the other girls.

Li Nuo then secretly sneaked back to the mansion in the west of the city.

Chen Can and others were also loyal, and they were the ones keeping vigil for the rest of the night.

Li Nuo did not alert them, but secretly went to the backyard.

suddenly.

A knife struck silently in the dark night...

Li Nuo smiled slightly, but did not avoid it.

And the blade suddenly stopped half an inch away from his neck, without damaging even a single hair on his neck.

This control of swordsmanship is truly at its peak.

Besides Lao Huang, a master of swordsmanship, who else could be there?

You brat, are you willing to come back?

Lao Huang retracted his knife and lowered his voice.

Uncle Huang, thanks to you covering up these days, otherwise I would have been discovered by others.

Li Nuo said with a smile.

In fact, the moment his puppet clone was transported back to Chang'an, Huang Jiujian discovered the flaw.

After all, there are still some subtle differences between the puppet and the real person.

But Huang Jiujian remained silent and continued to cover up.

After spending so long with Li Nuo, how could he still not understand Li Nuo's plan?

He must be trying to cheat his death to catch fish!

He just felt sorry for his adopted daughter Liu Xiangjun, who cried her heart out and was heartbroken, which made him worried for a long time.

Huang Jiujian asked: Have you met Mr. Xiang?

Li Nuo: Well, I just came back from Qingyang Palace.

What are you going to do next? This matter can only be kept secret for two more days at most.

Huang Jiujian's heart is like a bright mirror.

After all, Liu Xiangjun is not a cultivator, and there will inevitably be flaws once his true feelings are revealed.

There are still many spies watching around the house now.

Tomorrow! The imperial court will come to announce the decree and posthumously confer me the title of Duke An Guo!

Li Nuo said with burning eyes!

Huang Jiujian was suddenly startled, his eyes flashed, and he said excitedly: Good boy, are you going to use the corpse to bring back the soul at that time? This move is really wonderful! The emperor is afraid that he will vomit blood from anger, haha!
