Fantasy: Immortality starts with absorbing demons
Chapter 491: Aftermath (Part 3)
The person who came to visit was none other than Chen Jiuli, the inspector dispatched by Yangzhiyuan.
"Brother Chen, you are too polite. You and I are both inspectors dispatched by Jingtianzhuang. Our jurisdictions are adjacent. We should visit each other more often and help each other." Han Yi smiled slightly.
"Brother Han is right. It's just that the tea garden under my command had a good harvest a while ago, which delayed me a little. I have heard that Jiuquyuan has produced a powerful hero. Now I see that he is indeed not bad. Not only is he a martial arts expert, but his management ability is also outstanding."
Chen Jiuli laughed, but his words were a bit weird.
As the inspector of Jingtianzhuang, he naturally also governs a large industry.
The adjacent large tea garden in the southwest of Qiyun Mountain is the main core industry of this person.
The industries that Zhong Yunxiu had to abandon in Qiyun Mountain before, especially the several tea gardens that produced the precious "Yunqing Tea", were taken away and occupied by this person.
He had also wanted to discuss with Han Yi, wanting to buy the remaining scattered tea gardens at a high price, and form a monopoly on the Yunqing tea trade.
However, Han Yi decisively refused, which led to the relationship between the two being far from friendly, and even a little bit of hatred.
When Han Yi heard this, he was too lazy to be polite with him, and said directly: "Brother Chen is a busy man, and he doesn't come to the temple for no reason. If you have something to say, you might as well say it directly.
If Brother Chen is here to instruct Han on management methods, or to be a teacher, then please go back. I have a lot of things to do here, and I am still very busy."
"Oh, by the way, if Brother Chen wants to mention the matter of those tea gardens again, unless you offer the price I set at the beginning, otherwise, no discussion." He added.
"You.......?!" Chen Jiuli's face suddenly became ugly after hearing this, and he slapped the armrest of the chair and was about to get angry.
It would have been fine if Han Yi didn't mention the tea garden. When he talked about this, Chen Jiuli felt very unhappy.
It's just a tea garden, but this guy surnamed Han wants to sell a tea garden for 100,000 taels of gold. If he buys all of them, he will probably have to spend 300,000 or 400,000 gold notes.
What a concept, even if he sells all his territory, he can't come up with so much money.
This is not even a lion's mouth, it's simply extortion.
He was about to get angry, but then, when he thought of the reason for coming today, he suppressed his resentment.
He didn't come here for his own business. If he messed up this job, he would be punished when he returned.
"Brother Han is really born with a good mouth, worthy of being valued by the head of Jiuquyuan. Just this mouth skill, I, Chen, am willing to admit defeat." Chen Jiuli said with a fake smile.
"Brother Chen, what do you mean?" Han Yi was puzzled, "Are you okay? If not, please go back by yourself. I'm sorry I won't accompany you."
He started to chase people away directly.
"Haha, Brother Han is so anxious to let me go. Did you do something wrong that makes you feel guilty?" Chen Jiuli sneered.
He was originally a tall and thin man with dark skin. When he sneered at this time, his temperament seemed even more sinister, like an interrogation tone.
"A guilty conscience?" Han Yi chuckled, "I am Han, and I am upright in my conduct and work. What can go wrong? If you don't do guilty conscience, you don't have to worry about ghosts knocking on your door."
"Really..." Chen Jiuli sighed, "But if you didn't do anything, how come there are only two of your three hall masters left?!"
Han Yi had long been on guard against Chen Jiuli's purpose. Although he was a little upset at this time, he remained unchanged on the surface: "Only two left...?! What do you mean, Brother Chen?
My three hall masters are all conscientious, hardworking and honest people. Why do you attack others for no reason?"
"Brother Han, why do you have to pretend to be stupid? Isn't your Lotus Hall Master Luo Meiwei dead? If it wasn't you who did it, who else could it be? Why are you asking here knowingly!" Chen Jiuli was impatient and said the truth.
But his behavior and words seemed reckless, but in fact he was staring at Han Yi's expression carefully.
"What?! Luo Meiwei is dead?!!!" Han Yi slammed the table in an instant, his expression shocked, and stood up to ask, "Where did Brother Chen get the news? Didn't Luo Meiwei go home to rest?
Dead? What happened? How could she die?"
"Huh?" Chen Jiuli narrowed his eyes slightly, "Brother Han really didn't know about this? Luo Meiwei, but she died a few days ago?"
"How could I know about this?" Han Yi still looked incredulous, "Luo Meiwei sent someone to send a letter, saying that she asked for leave to go home and rest for a few days. I thought she was delayed by something at home, and I didn't care. Who knew, I received bad news..."
"Life is really unpredictable, and God's will is unpredictable..." He looked heavy, obviously deeply hit.
"Brother Han, I am sorry, it seems that you don't know about this yet..." Chen Jiuli carefully observed for a long time, and seeing that Han Yi's expression did not seem to be false, he also comforted him at the right time, "I don't know what happened to Luo Meiwei when Brother Han..."
It seems that he still doubts Han Yi.
After all, Luo Meiwei is Han Yi's subordinate. If something happens to her, Han Yi will be the first person to be suspected.
"A few days ago, I went back to the inner courtyard and asked Master a few questions about cultivation." Han Yi said decisively, "If Brother Chen suspects me, he can go to Jiuquyuan in person and ask my Master in person."
As soon as he came back that day, he wrote to his master Zhong Yunxiu to explain the matter, and gave half of the gold notes he got from Luo Meiwei to her.
Because this matter involves too many people and involves too many things, it is necessary for a high-level person like the master to come forward to deal with it.
As for half of the gold notes, although there are tens of thousands of taels, he was originally going to give it away, but Hu Ping didn't want it, so it was reasonable to give it to the master again.
But what surprised him was that Zhong Yunxiu actually returned all the gold notes and didn't take a penny.
And in the reply letter, she replied that Han Yi should practice martial arts well and take good care of the territory, and she would help take care of other things.
So, even if Chen Jiuli found Zhong Yunxiu, he would not find anything.
Sure enough, when Chen Jiuli heard what Han Yi said, his suspicion faded a little. If he could bring out a person of the level of the head of the courtyard as a guarantee, it shouldn't be a big problem.
So, his attitude changed slightly: "It seems that Brother Han really doesn't know about this matter, so..."
"Wait a minute!"
Han Yi suddenly interrupted: "Brother Zhao, in fact, I have a question from the beginning. Luo Meiwei is my subordinate after all. How come I don't know about her accident, but you know it first?
Besides, what qualifications do you have to come and question me?"
