The Forbidden City！
Upon hearing these three words, the complexions of the people present all changed.
Cao Yuan said, “I have no grudges or enmities with the Forbidden City. Why do they want to kill me？”
The Long-browed True Man said, “I can’t answer this question for you. It seems that only by finding the mastermind behind the scenes can we know.”
Cao Yuan was silent for a moment and said, “Qinglong, give the senior five million and one hundred thousand later.”
Isn’t it one divination one hundred thousand? Why give him an extra five million? Ye Qiu asked looked puzzled.
Cao Yuan said, “The senior came all the way to help me. Five million is a hardship fee.”
Ye Qiu instantly understood that the Long-browed True Man was invited by Cao Yuan with money！
This old thing is really good at making money. If I had known this, I should also have asked the Ninth Thousand-Year-Old for some hardship fee.
Ye Qiu secretly complained.
“Well, the matter is over. Let’s go back！” The Long-browed True Man said, “The snake meat hasn’t been finished yet. Go back and roast the snake meat to eat.”
Immediately, a group of people returned to the hotel.
Zhao Hu and the others were all waiting anxiously. Seeing that Cao Yuan and the others returned safely, they were overjoyed one by one.
“Ninth Thousand-Year-Old, is the decisive battle over？” Zhao Hu greeted and asked.
“Hmm.” Cao Yuan hmmmed and said, “All the enemies are dead.”
What——
Zhao Hu and the others gasped.
Enter the door.
Cao Yuan sat down on the chair, his face became serious, and suddenly shouted： “The disciples of the Dragon Gate listen to the order.”
Plop！
The people of the Dragon Gate present all knelt down on one knee.
Cao Yuan said loudly： “Today’s decisive battle, Ye Qiu has made great contributions. He is hereby promoted to the Xuanwu Envoy of the Dragon Gate.”
When these words came out, Ye Qiu was surprised.
Zhao Hu and the others were even more envious.
Besides the Dragon Gate, the four Dragon Envoys have the greatest power. Unexpectedly Ye Qiu became one of the four Dragon Envoys at a young age.
“Ye Qiu, receive the order.”
Cao Yuan took out a pure gold token and handed it to Ye Qiu.
On the front of the token, a five-clawed golden dragon was engraved, lifelike. On the back, two words were engraved： Xuanwu.
Thank you. Nine thousand years old. Ye Qiu took the token and said.
Cao Yuan asked： “Ye Qiu, do you know the meaning represented by this token？”
Ye Qiu shook his head.
“Qinglong, tell him.”
Qinglong then said to Ye Qiu: Besides the nine thousand years old, the most powerful in our Dragon Gate are the four Dragon Envoys. Below the four Dragon Envoys there are also the bosses of various places and the president.
“President?” Ye Qiu was puzzled. It was the first time he had heard of it.
Qinglong explained: “Besides the underground forces, the Dragon Gate also has some businesses that need to be taken care of. After all, in this society, everything is inseparable from the support of money.
“Because there are not enough people, so generally three provinces will establish a chamber of commerce and set up a president.”
“The status of the president is on an equal footing with the bosses of various places, but they directly obey the four dragon envoys.”
“In the past, Jiangzhou, Zhongyuan Province and Jinling were all under the management of the Sihai Chamber of Commerce. The president of the Sihai Chamber of Commerce reported directly to the Xuanwu Envoy. That is to say, from now on, the president of the Sihai Chamber of Commerce will listen to you.”
“You have the power to appoint and remove the president at will.”
Ye Qiu understood.
In other words, from now on, the affairs of the Sihai Chamber of Commerce will be up to him.
Cao Yuan smiled and said, “Ye Qiu, if you need money in the future, you can directly find the president of the Sihai Chamber of Commerce. His name is Yang Xilong. Within ten billion, there is no need to report to me.”
Ye Qiu was shocked. Within ten billion, there is no need to report. How much money does the Dragon’s Gate have？
Cao Yuan saw Ye Qiu’s thoughts and said with a smile, “Actually, our Dragon’s Gate doesn’t have much money, only more than 100 billion or so.”
Hiss——
More than 100 billion is still called not much money？
Pretending to be awesome.
Suddenly, a look of sadness appeared on Cao Yuan’s face and he said, “A few days ago, when Wei Leran and others attacked and killed me, many brothers died to protect me. I’m sorry for them.”
“Now that the decisive battle is over, those dead brothers must be compensated.”
“Especially Xuanwu. Before dying in battle, he and Qilin also killed the elders of the Witch God Sect. His contribution is indispensable.”
”I have decided to set up a spiritual tablet for Xuanwu at the headquarters of the Dragon Gate and order the disciples to burn incense for him every day to comfort his spirit in heaven. As long as the Dragon Gate does not perish, the incense will not go out.”
”As for the other disciples, in addition to a grand burial, we must also comfort and compensate their families.”
”Each family will receive at least one million.”
”In addition, for those families with elderly people over the age of sixty, our Dragon Gate will help provide for the elderly and see them off when they pass away.”
”If there are children in the family who are not yet adults, regardless of their age, our Dragon Gate will help raise them until they become adults.”
”Regarding this matter, Qinglong, you will handle it personally, and Zhao Hu will assist. Is there any problem？”
”No problem.”
Qinglong and Zhao Hu replied in unison.
”Good, the matter has been properly arranged. Next, do you all want to go and rest or eat snake meat？” Cao Yuan asked with a smile.
”Idiot, of course it’s to eat snake meat.” The Long Eyebrow True Man said, “I want to eat roasted snake meat.”
”I’ll go and make arrangements.” Zhao Hu said and then went out.
That night, everyone ate meat and drank alcohol. Under the soft and hard pleadings of the Long Eyebrow True Man, Ye Qiu taught the Five Thunder Curse to the Long Eyebrow True Man.
According to the agreement, the Long Eyebrow True Man was to be Ye Qiu’s bodyguard for a year.
However, when Ye Qiu woke up the next morning, the Long Eyebrow True Man was gone. Listening to what Qinglong said, the Long Eyebrow True Man had returned to Longhu Mountain.
”Dammit, this old thing is really unreliable. I should have known better than to teach him the Five Thunder Curse.”
Ye Qiu was so angry that he cursed loudly.
At this time, Cao Yuan came out of the bedroom and said, “The senior said that he is going back to Longhu Mountain to study the Five Thunder True Method. When he has thoroughly studied it, he will go to Jiangzhou to find you.”
”The Five Thunder True Method has not been thoroughly studied by anyone in hundreds of years. This old thing obviously wants to find an excuse to run away.”
Cao Yuan smiled and asked, “When are you going to return to Jiangzhou？”
“I’m leaving later.” Ye Qiu took out the Lord and handed it to Cao Yuan, saying, “Lord 9000, return this to you.”
”Why don’t you keep it？” Cao Yuan said.”
Ye Qiu asked, “Do you want to leave the Dragon Gate to me to manage, and then you go traveling and playing？”
”You saw it？”
I’ll give you three words – wishful thinking! Ye Qiu stuffed the head of the house into Cao Yuan’s hand.
Cao Yuan laughed heartily.
Half a minute later.
Cao Yuan said seriously, “Ye Qiu, I will continue to investigate the matter of your father and the Forbidden City. I will notify you as soon as there is news.”
”Thank you, Lord 9000. You should be more careful.” Ye Qiu said gratefully.
Cao Yuan nodded, “I will.”
After having breakfast, Ye Qiu left Yangcheng by plane.
Four hours later, he returned to Jiangzhou.
Just after getting off the plane, Ye Qiu received a call from Lin Jingzhi.
”Hello, Ye Qiu, have you got off the plane？” Lin Jingzhi asked on the phone.
”I just got off the plane. Sister Lin, are you at home？ I’ll come to find you.” Ye Qiu said.
”I’m at the company, hubby, come quickly, hurry up…” Lin Jingzhi’s voice was a bit urgent, and then she hung up the phone.
Ye Qiu’s heart skipped a beat.
Could it be that Sister Lin has run into trouble？
