The Immortal Cultivator Returns to the City

The teahouse business in Dixuan City is the hottest. Looking at it today, Ye Xuan was shocked. It was really like that.

The guy who was woken up by his boss was still in the fog, not knowing what was going on. He looked up and saw two people in luxurious clothes. He didn't expect it to be Ye Xuan and Xiong Batian. His face turned pale, and he lowered his head and hurriedly went to work. water.

"Man, why is business so bleak?" Ye Xuan stopped the man and asked.

The young boy kept his head down and knew how to work. He never raised his head to see anyone. He just wiped the table and said: "Sir, if you can come to our shop to drink tea, you must be a rich and powerful person. I would like to advise both of you." In other words, when we drink tea here, we drink gold now."

Ye Xuan looked up and saw the big golden plaque on his head, which said "Qinxin Pavilion". The decoration was also gorgeous and the consumption was naturally not too low. However, in order to develop the economy, Ye Xuan had already ordered that the tax burden be reduced. It’s very low, and ordinary people can’t afford it.

"Brother, what do you say? Is there any new order issued by the city?" Ye Xuan asked curiously.

Xiong Batian naturally did not dare to speak at this time, but the young man still lowered his head and said: "The city lord is a good city lord, but during this period, the tea we bought is more expensive than gold."

While talking, the water was boiling, and the boy set out the tea ceremony one by one. However, when the water was poured on the tea leaves, there was no aroma at all.

"Sir, judging from your clothes, you are also a very wealthy person. I can't lie to you. This tea is what we guys used to drink when we had nothing to do. It is also called Big Bowl of Fragrance. It quenches your thirst. Please bear with me." Well, the price of tea is really too high, we can’t afford it..."

After he finished speaking, the boy went down. Ba Tianxia picked up the "big bowl of incense" and took a sip. He couldn't help but smile sadly: "This tea is indeed good tea."

With that, he handed a document that he had prepared a long time ago to Ye Xuan. Ye Xuan looked at the tea leaves and really had no appetite at all. He shook his head helplessly, looked at the document on hand and asked.

"What is this?" Ye Xuan asked as he opened it, densely packed with numbers.

Seeing this, Ye Xuan couldn't help but take a breath. This was a list of Liu Piaopiao's personal income during his absence. Each income on it was over 10 million.

After comparing it carefully, Ye Xuan found something wrong. He looked up and saw Liu Piaopiao, but none of the items here belonged to Liu Piaopiao. Then he put down the document and looked at Xiong Batian, who had already drank all the tea. .

"What's going on? Show me what this means?" Xiong Batian took the documents and rummaged through them, and finally found one of them, that is, during this period, tea was imported from Gaodi City. The amount is huge, so huge that it is far more than the combined tax revenue of Emperor Xuan City for several years.

"Are you suspecting Piaopiao that she is taking this opportunity to make money?" Ye Xuan asked in disbelief.

Xiong Batian did not dare to answer directly, so he said sideways: "City Lord, it's not just tea. Now the economy of Emperor Xuan City has collapsed. Many things have been put on hold. Even the funding for the laboratory has been in arrears." A few days."

Ye Xuan didn't believe it and immediately asked: "Why didn't Jizi report to me that day?" Tianjizi had followed him for a long time and would not betray him. Ye Xuan was still very confident.

Xiong Batian shook his head helplessly: "Hey, City Lord, I don't know what's going on in this."

Ye Xuan picked up the list again and looked at it. This time he looked carefully. There were children's playgrounds and large amusement facilities. Many of them had money moving around, but he didn't see any in Emperor Xuan City. The transactions are still very frequent, and the accounts ultimately come from the treasury, but what is the final flow? A few of them are companies, but they look like leather companies.

Xiong Batian stood up and pushed open the window. There was a villa directly opposite. Xiong Batian then looked at the villa and said leisurely: "In the end, where did all the money go? These people are very smart, but they are just better than others." I'm a little bit shrewd, and they kept pretending, but I still found out after I investigated them."

After saying that, he paused, clasped his hands and bowed, "Please forgive me, City Lord. I secretly investigated Miss Liu."

Ye Xuan now remembered that Xuan Xiao had said that Liu Piaopiao went to a villa for one night. Is this where it is? Ye Xuan couldn't help but become curious, what secrets were hidden here?

Ye Xuan lowered his voice and said, "Are you sure the facts you investigated are true?"

Looking at the information, Ye Xuan himself couldn't help but become suspicious.

Xiong Batian said decisively: "My people can definitely be trusted. They have followed me from the beginning and are loyal to me. Moreover, Miss Liu is still wary of me now. I disappeared several people, and only after investigation did I find out these .”

Ye Xuan finally understood. No wonder Xiong Batian suddenly rebelled at Long Aotian's mansion just now, because he was indeed superior to Ying Tianxia in order to confuse Liu Piaopiao. In fact, watching Ying Tianxia follow Liu Piaopiao was actually Xiong Batian's idea behind Ying Tianxia's back, but no matter what the purpose was, there was something wrong with Liu Piaopiao.

Ye Xuan nodded, dropped a few pieces of gold, and then walked towards the villa. The villa looked magnificent from a distance, but up close, it looked eerie and terrifying. Ye Xuan couldn't help but lick it. From the corner of his mouth, he looked at Xiong Batian: "Has this villa already existed?"

Xiong Batian shook his head: "Back to the city lord, I haven't been to this place a few times, so I don't know much about it."

Ye Xuan only discovered at this time that this place was actually very remote in Emperor Xuan City. It was not developed at that time because it was once a mass grave. However, as the population of Emperor Xuan City increased, it became I had no choice but to come over, but what? Ye Xuan's impression was also very vague.

The door was locked, and it was desolate outside. It was midnight, what was Liu Piaopiao doing here alone? He tried to knock on the door, but the sound on the door was wrong and there was no movement inside. Ye Xuan could only push the door open by himself, and then an old voice came out.

"Who are you? This place has been deserted for a long time. No one is here. Please go back quickly." Ye Xuan and Xiong Batian looked at each other. Although the voice was old, the breath was very heavy. A master of cultivation is deliberately pretending.
