When Qi Shaorong saw the City Lord’s Mansion, he was immediately shocked.
“This is the City Lord’s Mansion? Why does it seem like there is only a broken plaque and broken walls left? Where are the guards of the City Lord’s Mansion?” Qi Shaorong gritted his teeth.
Qi Shaorong held his forehead, and thought: The robbers have really plundered too cleanly. The original three words of the City Lord’s Mansion on the plaque were painted with gold paint, but the gold paint seems to be all scratched off.
Qi Heng looked at Qi Shaorong and said helplessly: “It is said that when the previous lord of the city lord’s mansion died, many of the guards also died. The pensions and guard wages were robbed halfway, therefore, the guards who did not receive the money all scattered, and the mansion became leaderless. So some people robbed everything in the City Lord’s Mansion.”
“The guards of the mansion didn’t care?” asked Qi Shaorong.
“It is said that the guards of the mansion were the first to launch the robbery.” Bi Liuyun shook his head and said.
“A group of rabble!” Qi Shaorong scolded sullenly.
Bi Liuyun shook the fan in his hand and said helplessly: “You also can’t say that, everyone is forced to do so to live! Without money, who would be willing to work?”
Qi Shaorong patted his head and said, “So, the City Lord’s Mansion has no guards now?”
Qi Heng nodded, “Yes, Young Master, if you want to rise on the Jade Sea Plains, you have to start from scratch.”
Qi Shaorong frowned and thought: That old fox of the royal family is really sinister!
What’s the use of giving the identity of a lord!
Zhuang Hao looked at Qi Shaorong, patted him on the shoulder, and said, “Take your time, there will always be a way.”
Bi Liuyun looked at Qi Shaorong, “Yes! Young Master, take your time, there will always be a way. Now, why don’t we go eat seafood and adjust our mood? It is said that the Jade Sea Plains is close to the Blue Moon Sea, and seafood there is very cheap.”
Zhuang Hao: “……” At this time, Bi Liuyun is really…… without a worry!
Qi Shaorong clenched his fists and said, “Right, let’s go eat first. When we are full, we will have the strength to think of a way.”
Zhuang Hao: “……”
……
Qi Shaorong and others entered a seafood restaurant and ate with relish.
Looking at the basin-sized crab, Qi Shaorong couldn’t help but sigh at the amazing feng shui in this world! It is a wonder that crabs can grow this strong!
Zhuang Hao gave a peeled off crab to Qi Shaorong and said, “Eat slowly.”
Qi Shaorong looked at Bi Liuyun, who was eating scallops with no image. He broke into cold sweat and secretly said: Fortunately, Bi Liuyun is not in the Imperial capital now, otherwise who knows how many people, who once admired him, would vomit blood!
“Young Master, the most authentic way to eat seafood is to eat it at the beach!” said Bi Liuyun.

Qi Shaorong nodded, “Yes! Yes! Liuyun, eat slowly, no one will fight with you.”

“My name is Mo Yunan, I’m temporarily managing the firm here for my family.” Mo Yunan said with a warm smile.
Dl Olesec kjr raeccfv obg j wbwfca, jcv ibbxfv ja Zb Tecjc, “Tbe…” Ktf sbecu bkcfg bo Zbsec Mlgw.
Qi Shaorong looked at Mo Yunan with great interest. Originally, Qi Shaorong wanted to take time to see the young master of Moyun firm. Then, before he came to the door, the other party came over by himself.
The group disguised their identities when they entered, but they didn’t expect to be seen through so quickly.
Zhuang Hao looked at Mo Yunan and said, “Young Master Mo, how do you know it’s us!”
“Young Master Qi used the money card given by the Business Alliance, and we, Moyun Firm, have a cooperation with the Business Alliance.” Mo Yunan said.
Zhuang Hao suddenly understood that the money card Feng Yuan gave to Qi Shaorong was the highest platinum-level money card in the Business Alliance, and the circulation was very limited. It is not difficult to guess the people who use this card in this kind of place.
Qi Shaorong looked at Mo Yunan, and smiled, “Young Master Mo, do you have any advice?”
“I’m unable to speak of any advice. I heard that Young Master Qi is going to be the lord of the Jade Sea Plains. I don’t know how I can help. If Young Master Qi has any difficulties, you can tell me.” Mo Yunan said enthusiastically.
“Young Master Mo, is really courteous.” Qi Shaorong said.
Mo Yunan waved his hand and said, “No need to be polite, Young Master Qi. My Moyun Firm has a close relationship with the Business Alliance. In fact, before Young Master Qi came, Senior Feng Yuan asked me to take care of you.”
Qi Shaorong smiled and said, “So that’s why!”
Qi Shaorong secretly said: His(QSR) relation with people’s not bad! When the previous lords came, they all had to find their own backers, but when they came, it’s the backers that came to find them.
Mo Yunan looked at Qi Shaorong and said, “Young Master Qi, maybe you don’t know, the City Lord’s Mansion isn’t habitable anymore. If you don’t mind, you can live in the other courtyard of my firm first.”
“Thank you, Young Master Mo.”
Mo Yunan smiled, “Young Master Qi, no need to be polite.”
Mo Yunan and Qi Shaorong talked for a while and then left.
“Young Master, why did you give Qi Shaorong such a big face? Without the protection of a force, a seventh-level mage can’t live for long here.”
Mo Yunan shook his head and said, “I’m not giving Qi Shaorong face, it’s actually giving Zhuang Hao face. Qi Shaorong and Zhuang Hao are a couple, the Zhuang family also has saint-level masters in command, not to mention, Zhuang Hao is also recognized as the most proficient one in becoming a saint-level master. Befriending Qi Shaorong also does no harm.”
“Makes sense.”
“This fellow Hai Ling seems to be very strong!” Mo Yunan couldn’t help saying.
“Yes! There are people with murky minds who want to rob the Tianlong Firm, but as a result, their whereabouts are unknown.” The old man beside Mo Yunan said.
Mo Yunan squinted, “This Tianlong Firm is really unfathomable!” Every item in the Tianlong Firm is enough for a small wealthy man to go bankrupt. Many people have crooked thinking to the firm, but those who set into action, all went and never came out.
“Thinking about it, it’s strange, the Tianlong Firm can obtain such a precious treasure of the sea clan, ordinary things naturally aren’t worth to be mentioned. However, the strange thing is that the Tianlong Firm only operates in the Jade Sea Plains, and there are no branches in other places.” Old Xu said.
Mo Yunan smiled, “Perhaps, these people feel that there is no need to make too much money, as long as it is enough, then all’s good.”
Old Xu smiled and said, “If that’s the case, then the superiors of Tianlong Firm really understand restraint.”
Mo Yunan smiled, “The way the Tianlong Firm operates is very special. It doesn’t conflict with our firm, so try not to argue with them.”
Qi Shaorong plopped on the bed and said excitedly: “Ai, I’m just that popular, I can’t help it. As soon as I come, there will be people willing to pay and give a place to live, I feel embarrassed thinking about it.”
Zhuang Hao glanced at Qi Shaorong and said, “Even so, we exposed our identities as soon as we came. It’s really a little… not in line with the plan.”
Although Mo Yunan said that it was because Qi Shaorong used the card given by Feng Yuan, he knew about them, but Zhuang Hao had a feeling that even if Qi Shaorong didn’t use the card, Mo Yunan would have known long ago.
Qi Shaorong glanced at Zhuang Hao and said: “You only know how to splash cold water. It’s no big deal to reveal your identity, sooner or later it will be revealed. This young master has peerless elegance, and there’s nothing unpresentable.”
Zhuang Hao smiled, “That’s right.”
Qi Heng brought a cup of tea to Qi Shaorong and said, “Young Master, what are your plans next?”
Qi Shaorong said lazily, “The most urgent task is to rebuild the City Lord’s Mansion. I am more or less still a city lord, so I can’t have no place to live!”
Zhuang Hao nodded, “That’s true, I heard that we can hire aquarian workers, and some aquarian workers are very easy to dispatch, as long as they have food, but if the food is not good, aquarian workers are prone to riots, so although aquarian workers are cheap, they have certain risks.”
Qi Shaorong: “……”
“I’ll deal with the construction of the City Lord’s Mansion,” Bi Liuyun said.
Qi Shaorong looked at Bi Liuyun and said, “Liuyun, you’re willing to help me deal with this?”
Bi Liuyun nodded and said: “Yes! Young master, do you know that having an estate is an important criterion for girls and boys to choose a husband today, I will definitely help you build a beautiful City Lord’s Mansion, once people see it they will definitely want to marry you.”
Zhuang Hao looked at Bi Liuyun and said, “I estimate that before Shaorong stays here for long he will be transferred out. Therefore, there is no need to build the City Lord’s Mansion too lavishly, wasting the City Lord’s money. ”
Bi Liuyun turned his head, and looked at Zhuang Hao, “Even so, the place where Young Master lives should not be too sloppy.”
Qi Shaorong nodded and said with approval: “Well said.”
Qi Heng followed Bi Liuyun into a branch of Tianlong FIrm.
Bi Liuyun smiled and said proudly: “This is the place, I heard that you can hire aquarian workers at a low price here. Although Young Master does not lack money at the moment, if you’re able to save money, then you should save it, if you don’t, you will easily end up in Yi Fan’s fate.”
Qi Heng: “……” Yi Fan became an idiot because of his marriage, he spent a lot of money, and he might have to rely on Mu Tingxuan to support him in the future.
“Honored guests, what kind of workers from the sea tribe do you need!” A familiar voice rang in Bi Liuyun’s ears, and Bi Liuyun looked in the direction the sound came from.
“Young Master Hai? Why are you here?”
Hai Ling showed a brilliant smile, “I’m here to inspect. This guest, you looks much better than before!”
Bi Liuyun smiled and said, “Really?”
Qi Heng frowned, Bi Liuyun altered his face before, although the overall appearance did not change much, but the purple color has decreased a lot, Hai Ling actually recognized it easily, and even revealed.
Hailing looked at Bi Liuyun and asked, “Are you here to pick out aquarian workers?”
Bi Liuyun nodded, “Yes! Young Master, do you have any recommendations?”
“Yes! You’re choosing aquarian workers to rebuild the City Lord’s Mansion?” Hai Ling asked with a smile.
Bi Liuyun’s heart suddenly sank, and thought: Not only Mo Yun’an, but Hai Ling’s news is also very well-informed!
Looking at Hailing, he smiled, “Yes! But, how did you know?”
“It’s not a secret that there is a peerless zither master around Qi Shaorong.” Hailing said.
Bi Liuyun smiled and said: “So that’s the case, it seems that I look very recognisable.”
“Musician Bi’s appearance is one of a kind, it’s unforgettable at first sight.” Hai Ling praised without hesitation.
Looking at Hai Ling, Bi Liuyun said, “Really? I thought Young Master Hai was used to seeing beauties, so you wouldn’t notice me.”
The Sea Tribes have more beauties than humans, the mermaid clan specializes in beauties. Hai Ling’s overbearing is not low, so his strength must not be low. If he’s from the Sea Tribes royal family, they should be used to seeing the sea clan beauties.
