326 BrokerIn just a short time of an incense stick, She Long came back.
"Young Master, it has been confirmed that Yuexuan has purchased at least hundreds of thousands of kilograms of grain in Tiandou City over the years." As he spoke, She Long presented the evidence to Xue Qinghe.
This report was secretly investigated by the Spirit Temple.
There are only a hundred people in Yuexuan, including students, but they buy such a huge amount of food. A bishop in the Wuhun Temple discovered something and investigated secretly for a long time. He also used his connections to have a few drinks with Yuexuan's purchasing department, and only then did he figure out Yuexuan's purchasing routine.
They first purchased a small amount of grain in the name of Yuexuan to get acquainted with the grain merchants. After doing business several times in a row, the two sides gradually became familiar with each other. Under Tang Yuehua's instructions, Yuexuan's purchasers would recommend another big seller to the grain merchants.
The money used by this big seller to purchase grain was all drawn from Yuexuan. The grain merchant was only responsible for delivering the grain to the designated location outside the city, and the transaction was considered complete.
Unfortunately, the results of the bishop's investigation were not taken seriously by the high-level officials of the Spirit Hall, and eventually nothing happened. It was not until She Long went to collect people that someone remembered the report.
"Your Highness, it seems very clear that Yuexuan is the broker arranged by the Haotian Sect on the mainland, responsible for solving the food problem for the Haotian Sect." Qi Tian said in a deep voice.
She Long volunteered, "Young Master, leave this matter to me. I promise to remove this tooth of the Haotian Sect."
"No!" Xue Qinghe shook his head and said, "The Haotian Sect must have more than one broker planted on the mainland, Tang Yuehua. If we rashly attack Yuexuan, it will easily cause unrest in Tiandou City. We can't touch them for the time being!"
All eggs should not be put in one basket, and the Haotian Sect must know this. If only Tang Yuehua, the broker, was exposed, even if she was arrested, it would not be a big deal to the Haotian Sect, but would arouse their vigilance.
In addition, Yuexuan has a very high status among the nobles of the Tiandou Empire. Many nobles are willing to spend a fortune just for a place in school.
If we take action against Yuexuan now, the nobles behind him will definitely not agree.
Qi Tian interrupted, "If you have any other plans, at least before the coup is over, you must not attack Yue Xuan, and you must not let them notice anything."
"Brother Qitian, what you said makes sense. If you hadn't reminded me, I would probably never have known that there were spies from the Haotian Sect in Tiandou City."
…
After leaving the Prince's Mansion, Qi Tian immediately rushed to Dugu Bo's herbal medicine shop.
The Tiandou Palace change has been postponed temporarily, and he must take advantage of this time to discuss the establishment of a sect.
Currently, Dugu Bo is the only one in the herbal medicine shop. Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling went to the Sunset Forest to obtain the sixth soul ring.
"Little monster, you're finally back." Feeling the familiar breath, Dugu Bo walked out of the herb shop and met Qi Tian.
"Old monster." Qi Tian smiled faintly and entered the second floor of the herbal medicine shop with the other party.
"Little monster, you are already a Soul Sage now." Dugu Bo said bitterly, "When I was your age, I was only a Soul Sect Master."
Qi Tian's cultivation speed is absolutely unique on the continent. In comparison, Qin Ming, who was once known as the second youngest Soul Emperor on the continent, is nothing but a joke.
"It's a matter of chance. Besides, old monster, you have a lot of luck to become a Titled Douluo." Qi Tian smiled faintly and was not proud of it.
Under the gods, we are all ants. Qi Tian will not be complacent because of his current strength.
Hearing this, Dugu Bo felt even more bitter.
In the past, he was holding a mountain of gold without even realizing it.
"Oh, little monster, what are your plans for establishing a sect? The atmosphere in Tiandou City is quite subtle, and it won't be long before it falls into turmoil. If you want to establish a sect, you have to start preparing now."
Qi Tian nodded and took over the conversation, "Old monster, I have discussed the establishment of a sect with Dean Shui. The Shui family has decided to join my sect. In addition, Dean Shui will also convince the other two deans. By then, the Three Elements Family will be the foundation of the sect."
Qi Tian said a lot in one breath, and he gave a detailed plan about the construction of the sect.
After hearing this, Dugu Bo nodded in admiration, "Little monster, you decide on the sect's affairs, and I will help you clear all obstacles. As for the position of sect master, I am not interested, just let me be a sect worshiper."
The ability of the sect leader is related to the future development of a sect. Dugu Bo is not good at intrigues. It is not a suitable choice for him to become the sect leader.
Qi Tian suddenly smiled, "Old monster, I said at the beginning that I would take care of you in your old age. However, in the early stages of the sect's establishment, I'm afraid you will need to contribute more. Once the sect is stable, you can rest."
Dugu Bo didn't care. After all, with the sect as a backer, the future of the Dugu family was guaranteed.
"By the way, Yanyan and Lingling just set out to hunt souls yesterday, and they won't be back for a few days. You made them wait for so long, you have to have an explanation." Dugu Bo said slowly.
Qi Tian scratched his head and said, "Old monster, let's wait until she comes back."
Next, you need to wait patiently for Shui Ningbing's reply.
…
A few days passed quietly, and everything was stable in Tiandou City, but undercurrents were surging behind the scenes.
Feng Xiaotian got the news and came to Dugu Bo's herbal medicine shop.
"Qi Tian, you're finally back." Feng Xiaotian smiled and walked up to give Qi Tian a bear hug.
"Xiaotian, the five-year agreement is almost up, has everyone come back?" Qi Tian couldn't help but ask.
Huo Wushuang and others originally lived in Element City. Qi Tian cared most about Huo Mu, A Fei and Wang Qi.
"A Fei wrote to say that he will be back at the academy in the next two days. I'm afraid Wang Qi won't come. He is now the head of the family and needs to take care of the family business. He can't get away at all." At this point, Feng Xiaotian couldn't help but sighed and said, "There has been no news about Huo Mu in these years. He has not been heard from since he and A Fei separated two years ago."
He didn't finish his words. In Huo Mu's case, it was highly likely that he had encountered something unexpected during his training.
Qi Tian shook his head helplessly, "It seems that we can't get together for all this."
After a pause, Feng Xiaotian changed the subject, "By the way, Qi Tian, I heard from Dean Shui that you want to recruit our three major families and establish a sect based on them?"
"That's right."
"You and Senior Dugu, come with me to Elemental City. Dean Shui has informed Grandpa and the others of your proposal. However, the specific situation still needs to be discussed with you."
Qi Tian did not delay. After calling Dugu Bo, he and Feng Xiaotian rushed to Element City.
After all, Shui Ningbing cannot fully represent Qi Tian. Huo Lie and Feng Changlin certainly want to gain more benefits from the sect. All of this can only be discussed with Qi Tian. (End of this chapter)
