Chapter 299 New Mission
Except for the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, which adheres to tradition, almost all the chambers of commerce in the Tiandou Empire use banks to assist them in doing business.
For this bookkeeping business, you only need to deposit money in the bank, and no additional fees are required. In the past, each chamber of commerce had to spend a sum of money every year to hire someone to take care of the account books. Now someone is helping for free, and only a fool would not be happy.
Business people move around, but when they come to the Xingluo Empire, they have no way to use bank transactions, which has greatly affected the trade of the Xingluo Empire.
Not only the merchants of the Tiandou Empire, but also the local merchants of the Xingluo Empire have felt the trouble.
Although the status of merchants is not high, they will curry favor with the powerful. Which of those merchants who do big business does not have a wife of noble origin?
The power of the nobles is very strong. Even if Dai Tianfeng knows that this is inviting wolves into the house, he can do nothing.
The emperor is indeed the ruler of the country, but without the support of these nobles, he is nothing.
You can offend anyone, but you can't offend the nobles, let alone those aristocratic families.
So, a month ago, the Xingluo Empire took the initiative to ask the Spirit Hall to open a Spirit Bank in their territory.
The first batch of only three banks was established, which more than doubled the trade activity of the Xingluo Empire.
Han Yu said at the beginning that the two empires should not be allowed to unite against the Spirit Hall. Instead, they should compete with each other. The simplest way is to expose the trade surplus and deficit between the two empires every quarter.
It has only been opened for a month, and Ghost Douluo hurriedly came to me, fearing that something big has happened.
"Ghost Elder, what is it that makes you anxious?"
Ghost Douluo said anxiously: "Eighth Priest, our Spirit Bank in the Xingluo Empire has an accident"
The Spirit Bank in the Tiandou Empire is officially protected by the Tiandou Empire.
The Tiandou Empire has recovered its lost territory, and Xue Ye has done what the previous emperors did not do. Once he was happy, he was naturally willing to send troops to protect the safety of the bank.
But in the Xingluo Empire, the situation is completely different.
Dai Tianfeng had no choice but to let Wuhun Bank open in Xingluo. If the other party could leave on their own initiative, it would definitely be a good thing for him.
Without official protection, and even when the official was targeting, Wuhun Bank was frequently robbed. At the beginning, the thieves were not strong, but the strong men arranged by Wuhun Hall in the bank could handle it.
The good times did not last long. Until last night, Wuhun Bank, which was located in the southernmost province of Xingluo Empire, Falx Province, was robbed by strong men.
The strong men guarding the bank were seriously injured. Not only that, some of the money in the bank vault was looted.
Such a big event was reported in the Wuhun Daily this morning.
However, Han Yu is currently in the mountains and has no way to buy a newspaper.
"Eighth Priest, Falx Province is quite far from the Spirit Hall. As soon as I entered the territory of Xingluo Empire, I was driven away by Dai Tianfeng. I am afraid that I can't investigate this matter. Eighth Priest, according to the decision of the Priest Hall, you will go to investigate."
Falx Province is quite special. The people there are quite tough. In addition, there is a soul beast mountain range there - the Lie Claw Mountains.
Although it is a province close to the sea, most of the land there is barren sand. In addition, there are a considerable number of earth-attributed soul beasts in the Lie Claw Mountains.
At the same time, there are many strong people living in seclusion in the desert there. These strong people often have nepotism with some people in the city. If you want to go there to investigate, you have to deal with them.
Han Yu touched his chin and told what he knew, "I remember that many Spirit Hall masters had retired there. Didn't you look for them?"
Ghost Douluo smiled bitterly and said, "Eighth Priest, this matter is not as simple as you think. It was the Star Luo Empire that suggested opening a Spirit Bank there. Moreover, we also considered that there were many Spirit Hall masters who had retired there, and thought that their descendants would have a good impression of the Spirit Hall."
"I don't know much about the situation at present, but the descendants of those masters of the Spirit Hall do not have a good impression of the Spirit Hall, and even have hostility. I don't know the specific situation. Eighth Priest, this matter is of great importance, I can only ask you for it."
Han Yu nodded heavily at first, then he smiled and said, "Did the Great Priest say that there would be any reward for me after the completion of this mission? I don't want anything else, just give me the gold soul coins."
The expansion of the Canaan Chamber of Commerce is undoubtedly not enough with the gold soul coins in Han Yu's hand. It's not bad to take the opportunity to ask for some money.
Ghost Douluo didn't dare to agree to this. He said, "Eighth Priest, I will take your message to the Chief Priest. As for the mission situation, I will send it to you directly."
After hanging up the call, he quickly sent the mission briefing.
Qian Daoliu's request was also very simple. He didn't need Han Yu to fight the robbers. Instead, he wanted to investigate as much as possible about the movements of the powerful people who had lived in seclusion in the Spirit Hall and their current attitude towards the Spirit Hall.
And, at the end, Qian Daoliu also told a secret about the Spirit Hall.
When Qian Daoliu was the Pope, he was a completely iron-blooded Pope. Now, except for Han Yu and Golden Crocodile Douluo, everyone else in the Worship Hall joined because he was defeated by him.
For example, Jian Douluo's father Chen Jianjun said that he failed to challenge Qian Daoliu and died. In fact, it was not the case. Qian Daoliu invited him to join the Spirit Hall but was rejected, which eventually led to his death.
Qian Daoliu's style did make the Spirit Hall extremely powerful, but it also made many people timid and heartbroken. At that time, many powerful people in the Spirit Hall who had the potential to break through the Title Douluo applied for retirement, and their place of retreat was the Falx Province.
This place is far enough away from the Spirit Hall, and the Xingluo Empire is not interested in the Spirit Hall.
In general, this is indeed a good place to go.
"In this case, it makes sense that they are hostile to the Spirit Hall. But this happened more than 50 years ago. If these people had not broken through to the Title Douluo, they would probably have turned into a pile of yellow earth now."
The lifespan of a Soul Douluo is at most 100 years old. When these people retired, they were all in their 70s and 80s. It is not surprising that they have passed away now.
Han Yu put away his thoughts. The most urgent thing for him was to pick up Zhu Zhuqing.
As for how to relieve Zhu Zhuqing's irritability caused by murderous aura, Han Yu also thought of a way.
Since Qian Daoliu did not stipulate the departure time and the mission deadline, he was not in a hurry to go to Falx Province.
At least, he had to relieve the murderous aura in Zhu Zhuqing's body.
Time passed by minute by minute, and Zhu Zhuqing relied on his strong strength to successfully reach the last step.
"The right leg soul bone skill of the Absolute Shadow Leopard, flying."
The Slaughter City cannot use soul skills, but soul bone skills can be used. The last step, Zhu Zhuqing planned to fly directly over.
