Du family? Jiang Mei let out a sigh of surprise when he heard Geng Yekang coming to communicate. They had a little understanding of the forces on Yongan's side. After all, they are not familiar with the place, so they can't say how much they know, but they can still hear a lot about some of the most powerful forces here. No matter which way you say it, the Du family is well-deserved around Yong'an City, and can almost be regarded as a unique giant. The master of the God Seizing Stage who was guarding Yong'an City was believed to be a worshiper of the Du family. He only took a position in the Yamen of Yong'an City because he reached an agreement with the Chu State court. In fact, the history of Yong'an City is not even as long as the history of the Du family's pioneering work around here. Previously, the Du family was just a small and unknown family in Chu State. However, it was denounced due to changes in the court, and it could even be said that it was exiled to a place called Qie'an Town at that time. ??Looking at the name at that time, you can probably understand how insecure this place was. Qie'an was originally just a military town. There were only a small number of civilians, family members, and really desperate poor households stationed here along with a tired and messy border army of less than 400 people. They endlessly built fences with large timbers. , resisting horses, and digging traps in order to prevent the monsters pouring out from the mountains in all directions from invading the two cities of Taifeng and Xingye, which are only one day away from here and are adjacent to waterways and have prospered. To say that this place is an insignificant vassal is probably exaggerating. However, with the arrival of the Du family, the situation gradually changed. Although the Du family was relegated to peace, the foundation of the family was not greatly damaged. In other words, they were actually quite rich at that time. For the safety of their own family, the Du family spent a large amount of money to build a thick stone city wall on the side of Qian'an facing the Shifang Mountains. At that time, some people thought that the Du family was asking for trouble, but a beast wave that occurred the next year completely changed almost everyone's perception of the Du family. If it weren't for the stone wall donated by the Du family, Qian'an might not have been able to withstand it for even a day. However, with their only manpower, they withstood the beast tide for two and a half days and harvested a large amount of monster materials. The belated reinforcements from Taifeng and Xingye were not even able to clean up the battlefield. This made the lieutenants who missed the best opportunity to support Qie'an Town due to disputes at the top very angry. In their view, , the reason why they were looked down upon by the soldiers and people of Qie'an Town was all the fault of those inexplicable governors and city guards. These reinforcements stayed in Qie'an for a month, assisting Qie'an in restoring the town and helping to build part of the new city wall. After that, for six years, the residents of Qie'an Town spontaneously and spontaneously built the entire town into a city that reached the upper limit allowed by the imperial court, but was better in terms of safety and security. Qie'an Town gave The feeling of precariousness that people have is gone forever. It was after that that Qie'an reported to the court that he hoped to change his name to Yong'an. After three rounds of inspection officials from the court who were arrogant at first and respectful at the end, the request to change the name was approved. Qian'an no longer exists, but Yong'an not only successfully changed its name, but was also upgraded from a town to a city, and began to be garrisoned by more than a thousand elite soldiers. This is the beginning of Yongan¡¯s development. As the Du family continues to operate, Yongan no longer passively responds to the intrusion of monsters, but begins to take the initiative. The soldiers were trained, and their skills were inherited well, and their combat power was steadily improved. Warriors and monks from other places also came here, forming the first adventure group to clean up the monsters in a planned way. It must have been more than a hundred years since the Du family came to Yong'an. In these one hundred years, the monster has retreated almost fifty miles. People have very complicated feelings about the Du family, because the Du family has never taken the initiative to do anything for the people. Their attempts and decisions to bring about great changes in Yong'an City actually have only one purpose: to let the Du family live here. More comfortable. They built the city wall because they were afraid that the big house they had built would be destroyed by monsters. They renovated the roads to facilitate the transportation of various daily necessities and luxury goods. They planned the layout of the city because several elderly and children at home almost got lost when they went shopping. They opened sewers and water pipes because they were not used to drinking the water from Yong'an and felt that the well water was not sweet enough; they attracted several famous doctors to stay in Yong'an because the elderly at home were not in good health They have been doing this for so many years Everything we do for Yongan is not for the growing number of Yongan people, but for the enjoyment of their family. This family that has re-emerged in Yong'an has never been afraid of letting people know this. They are not showing kindness, nor do they disdain showing kindness to others. However, the people of Yongan, as well as the garrison, adventurers, etc., are all grateful to them. The Du family has done a lot of business in Yongan. The total number of transactions, overt and covert, accounts for more than 30% of the entire Yongan monster material market. It has the ability to monopolize prices. However, the Du family is always cool and noble. They don't bother to monopolize the market and lower prices. Instead, they do business seriously and with a normal heart.?If it is used to train the young children of the family. They are always so calm and peaceful, they don't do things they shouldn't do, they don't make money they shouldn't earn, and they don't mind how others judge and treat them It's been like this for decades or hundreds of years. Later, everyone gradually understood why the Du family was relegated from a wealthy family in the capital of Chu State to a remote town in the border towns. It is really an eyesore to have such a family standing at the heart of the officialdom. What can be done when the Du family comes to visit? Jiang Mei looked at Chengbang and Ye Yichen. Chengbang said nonchalantly: "We just brought so many people, aren't they here to fight?" "It doesn't seem like it. I think they are probably here for the fir tree heart." "God knows, it's not the case anyway. It doesn't matter if we come to fight. Let's just chat and leave. They really gave us enough face this time," Jiang Mei said. Ye Yichen nodded. Indeed, with the Du family's local power, it is actually more common to find a manager who I met yesterday, and the rank does not need to be high, such as Yu Yi, who is in charge of the business on the first floor. Then I invited them to a dinner somewhere. We all made an appointment and ran into each other naturally. Being concerned about the face of the invitee does not make you appear superior to others, but this proactive invitation method fully demonstrates your initiative in the relationship between the two parties. After getting Jiang Mei¡¯s permission, the Du family¡¯s carriage slowly drove into the warehouse and stopped outside the warehouse and room they had rented. "My dear, Du San, this time I am accompanying my master's family to visit you. I would like to thank you all for showing me this face, little old man." Du San said politely. "Don't take it seriously. It's an incredible honor for Mr. Du San to give us a chance to visit us. You are so polite." "It's the master's order, and I, Du San, am not used to putting on a show. I have heard about what happened to you in the market a few days ago, and I am also very interested in what you have in your hands. I originally wanted to talk to you. It is only possible to have a drink with such a good man in the mountains. It's refreshing. But when the master came, he gave me a problem." Du San said with a smile. His voice was calm and a little hoarse, which was very comfortable to listen to. "Du San, let's chat again." A clear and sweet voice came from the carriage. The owner of the house was actually a woman, which was beyond their expectation. "How long are you going to let me sit in the carriage?" The man still looked reluctant. "Fourth Miss, you" Du San smiled bitterly and opened the door curtain of the carriage and introduced everyone: "This is the Fourth Miss of the Du family. Names are taboo" "There is nothing taboo about names. My name is Du Yueru. , Line 4. There are many people in this generation, but now I am helping to take care of some things in the mansion, otherwise I would not dare to come to you." Du Yueru spoke very straightforwardly. Bai Di expressed his intention: "I came to you this time for two reasons. First: I don't know if it is convenient to sell your fir tree heart to me. There is an old man in the family who is seriously ill, and the days are taking one day at a time. I The Du family is not short of money, so you can ask for any amount you want, but I can't afford to wait for the auction. This matter will definitely make you a little embarrassed. I can go to the market to explain it, and there won't be any trouble, but those who come from other places will not be in trouble. I'm afraid there will be many wealthy businessmen coming here to cause trouble. I hope you can agree to this matter, but I also hope you can think it through before agreeing. You should be asking about what my Du family does. Got it." "What about the second thing?" Jiang Mei asked calmly. "I hope you will take our people into the mountains together. You can hunt so many monsters. I asked experts for advice. You must at least go to the east of Qingshui River, otherwise some types of monsters will not exist at all. We are there. We need a lot of medicinal materials now. Because we need them so urgently and in large quantities, I¡¯m afraid we won¡¯t be able to wait until various adventurers bring them. Moreover, those things are not valuable.¡± "Wangfengju and these things?" Ye Yichen suddenly interrupted. "How do you know?" Du Yueru was surprised. "I'm a doctor. I understand this as soon as I think about it. The old man's condition should be taken care of by an expert, so I won't say anything." Ye Yichen nodded slightly, took a step back, and stood behind Cheng Bang. "What do you think?" Jiang Mei looked at Chengbang. Chengbang scratched his head and said: "This matter is really difficult. There is nothing interesting in that direction. Andeven if we set off now, it will take at least fifty days to go back and forth." "Jiu Qin, we are well prepared. The other two can be replaced by others temporarily, but those things don't seem suitable for eating too much," Ye Yichen explained lightly. "In this case" Chengbang looked at Du Yueru. This happy and reckless girl made him feel friendly, and the story of the Du family made him feel very happy.??right about the taste. If this family is like this, it seems like a good family to be friends with. Chengbang thought, if you can help, just do it. "Uncle Jiang, send a message asking for a batch of Sanshancao and Wangfengju to be delivered. They will be picked up at the mountain in thirty days and meet us. Also, bring the fir tree heart." Peng Ze heard that Du Yueru When he mentioned Fir Tree Heart, he had already gone to ask someone to fetch the box. "Leave it to this lady." Chengbang said, "I'm sorry, there's no way to entertain the lady here in the warehouse. There's no need to be embarrassed. The heart of the fir tree is a hundred taels, but it's best to give it to us in various materials. It's no use keeping too much money in there. If you can't get it out this time, you have to continue next time. Don't worry. We have a camp in the mountains, not far from there. I'll send people out to rescue people and put out the fire. It's slower, but it's faster than going back and forth. Miss, what do you think?" "What?" Du Yueru was stunned. She came with a lot of energy, but what she got was a result that was much better than the best result she expected. What is going on? "Everything should be ready to use the magic circle in the heart of the fir tree. In that case, please come back, Miss. We can discuss other matters slowly." "Thank you, little lady. You are my friends. Well, I, Du Yueru, will never let my friends down.¡±>The Du family? Jiang Mei let out a sigh of surprise when he heard Geng Yekang coming to communicate.
