Life Hunter

The leader was a middle-aged man with a round face and a smile.

"Young life magician, Mr. Li Qingxian." Lou Yushan said with a smile.

The four people stood up hurriedly, and the chairs moved back, making a harsh friction sound.

"Long time admiration!" The four people clasped their fists together.

The two of them walked to the table. Lou Yushan introduced Li Qingxian with a smile: "This is the head of the finance room of our Department of Civil Artifacts, Mr. Duan Qing. The person next to him is..."

Lou Yushan introduced the four people one by one, and Li Qingxian greeted them one by one.

Except for Duan Qing, who is of the seventh rank, the others are either of the eighth or ninth rank, and they are all respectful.

Duan Qing smiled and said: "Master Li is really a talented person. Just now Xiaoshan pulled you in. I thought you were a young master from the Duke's Mansion. Please take a seat."

After speaking, Duan Qing left his position.

Li Qingxian declined calmly: "Master Duan is too polite. I heard Mr. Lou say that you are here and specially come to propose a glass of wine. There is no reason to sit in the chief position. You must not do it."

Everyone said a few polite words, sat down, and ordered someone to bring new bowls and chopsticks.

Li Qingxian knew many people from the Civil Equipment Department of the Ministry of Industry, but these people were from the finance department of the Civil Equipment Department and had never interacted with them.

The only intersection between the two parties was the wine shop. After a brief exchange of greetings, the topic turned to the wine shop.

In the future, the winery will bring at least one hundred thousand taels of income to the Ministry of Industry every year. In addition, Liu Muwa occasionally mentioned Li Qingxian in the Ministry of Industry. Duan Qing was full of praise for Li Qingxian, and several other low-level officials also praised Li Qingxian. Young and promising.

Lou Yushan was disappointed for a while when he heard that Li Qingxian only called him Mr. Lou. However, seeing that everyone spoke so highly of Li Qingxian, he soon sobered up, calmed down his emotions, and praised Li Qingxian.

Everyone exchanged glasses, exchanged cups, and after a while, they drank more than a dozen cups. Even though Li Qingxian was already at the eighth level and had strong magic power, he drank too much and was still drunk.

The other people had drunk a lot, so they all started to get drunk.

Li Qingxian thought that these people were regulars at the wine table. He didn't know how long he had been drinking, so he stood up and raised his glass: "Qingxian is really lucky to meet you all by chance. However, our house chief and supervisor are waiting for me. I'm here." It’s almost two-quarters of an hour. If you don’t go back, they will be worried about you. I’ll give you a final toast.”

The five people then stood up, drank a drink, and then tried to persuade them to stay.

Li Qingxian had made up his mind to leave, and no one stopped him.

"Master Li, wait a moment." Duan Qing said, taking out a large copper plate from the fish bag beside him.

Li Qingxian was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that a seventh-grade official like him also had a messenger plate. Generally speaking, only fifth-grade officials would hold it unless there was a temporary action.

Duan Qing saw the change in Li Qingxian, and the smile on his face became even brighter, and he said: "Logically speaking, I, the head of the seventh-grade house, are not qualified to wear amulets. However, the Department of Civil Artifacts has been booming recently, and Master Liu and Biao Uncle appreciates it. In order to facilitate me to deal with official duties quickly, I asked the Ministry of officials to give me a charm plate. I only used six charms out of the eight charms on this charm plate, and there are still two charms empty. It's not that I can't find anyone, but the number of charms is limited. , can only be left to more important things.”

Lou Yushan said hurriedly: "What Mr. Duan is saying is that a few days ago, I heard an adult from the Tuntian Division complaining about not being able to get your talisman."

Duan Qing sighed and said: "I can't help it. My cousin said that one talisman must always be empty on the communication talisman plate, because no one knows which noble person will suddenly meet."

Lou Yushan kept winking at Li Qingxian, asking Li Qingxian to take the initiative to ask for the talisman.

Li Qingxian hesitated. He only had one communication talisman plate on his face, but the eight talismans on it were already full. It would be too ostentatious to take out the second one now.

While Li Qingxian was hesitating, Duan Qing smiled and said, "Master Li, do you have a messenger plate?"

Everyone looked at Li Qingxian with envy in their eyes.

Even for Lou Yushan, whose family has a middle-class member who works in the Ministry of Industry, the same is true. Compared with Duan Qing's cousin, his family's power is really nothing. There are at least two hurdles between the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Personnel.

Li Qingxian said helplessly: "Thank you, Master Duan, for your kindness, but all eight of my charm plates are full."

Everyone secretly looked at Duan Qing, but Duan Qing smiled and said calmly: "Just change it."

Li Qingxian knew that the other party intended to make friends and was not malicious, so he had no choice but to take out the communication talisman and gently click the center. The talisman plate stood up and unfolded the eight flying talismans.

Li Qingxian pointed to a red-striped yellow talisman and said, "This first one belongs to Mr. Zhou Chunfeng Zhou, Director of the Patrol Division."

Everyone nodded slightly. Li Qingxian was indeed like the legend, and he was loved by Zhou Chunfeng.

"This second one belongs to Mr. Zhou Henzhou. I usually contact him often."

Two of the officials looked envious. Madman Zhou was famous as a thunderous general, and even among the river guards, he was a famous general with great military exploits.

"This is my senior sister, Concubine Jiang You." Li Qingxian said.

Everyone didn't pay attention at first, but then their eyes widened. They had heard the name Fairy Qingcheng too many times, and when they heard Li Qingxian directly address Jiang Youfei by her name, their reaction was a little slow.

Lou Yushan looked at Li Qingxian, his heart burning.

Everyone looked at Li Qingxian with serious eyes again.

She was a saint from a first-class Taoist sect, and was deeply loved by the Queen Mother. It would be a huge benefit to just mention her in the palace.

What's more, at such a young age, Li Qingxian not only got to know high-ranking officials in the imperial court, but was also close to the Taoist sect, and his network of contacts was far beyond imagination.

"This fourth one is from Master Song Yunjing."

Everyone had long thought that Li Qingxian helped Song Yunjing rewrite the poem after all.

"This fifth one belongs to the good young master Shen Xiaoyi, the young master of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce." Li Qingxian said.

Other court officials didn't care too much when they heard Shen Xiaoyi's name, but these were all financial officials who were very concerned about business affairs. When they heard Shen Xiaoyi's name, they had the same reaction as when they heard Jiang Youfei.

"Qingxian, I didn't expect you to have such a wide range of friends." Duan Qing sighed, the only trace of displeasure on his face completely dissipated.

Others don't know, but he often deals with money, and he knows the power of the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce best. On the surface, it is just a businessman, but behind the scenes, many wealthy families in Jiangnan have joined forces. Don't dare to make too big a mistake.

"This sixth person is Mr. Guo Xiangguo, the headmaster of the Black Lantern Division. He usually teaches me some fortune-telling techniques." Li Qingxian said.

Everyone nodded. The name of the Black Light Division was not prominent among the people, but it was well known in the court. Every Pian Si Zheng was a true fortune-teller, much more noble than ordinary fifth-rank officials.

"The seventh one is the supervisor of our North Road Office and works in the inner factory. Mr. Fei Yanfei usually needs Talisman contact."

When everyone heard that it was from the inner factory, they were mostly sober.

"Everyone knows this last one, Mr. Liu Muwa and Mr. Liu."

Everyone looked helpless, the leader of the Civil War Department.

These eight people, not to mention Duan Qing, even Duan Qing's cousin can't compare.

Li Qingxian looked at Duan Qing calmly.

Duan Qing sighed, put away the messenger plate, and said half-jokingly: "That's all. I can't go to Mr. Liu tomorrow and say, Brother Liu, I met Li Qingxian yesterday and asked him to change your plate to mine. Don't be angry."

Everyone immediately laughed.
