Gao Cheng, the head of Beiping Mansion, is sitting in the magnificent Yixiang Hall. He is like a god overlooking all living beings on his throne.
He was tall and towering and exuded an irresistible charm. His smile was kind and warm, as if he was as amiable as an elder in the family, but Guo Huai did not dare to show any slightness in his heart.
Guo Huai knew very well that Gaocheng was an extraordinary person, and every subtle expression and movement he made might have hidden meanings.
Therefore, when Gao Cheng looked at him and asked casually: "Chengdu Guo, what is your current level of cultivation?"
At this time, Guo Huai's heart couldn't help but tighten, and he answered cautiously: "Sir, I am now in the middle stage of immortality."
Gao Cheng nodded slightly, expressing satisfaction. There was a hint of imperceptible appreciation in his eyes, but Guo Huai felt even more nervous.
He knew that in front of a strong man like Gao Cheng, his immortal cultivation was really insignificant.
Gao Cheng seemed to see through Guo Huai's thoughts. He smiled slightly and comforted: "City Master Guo, don't be too nervous. Cultivation is only one aspect, the key lies in the improvement of your state of mind. As long as you are not distracted and concentrate on your cultivation, you will definitely achieve greater success in the future. Achievement."
Guo Huai pretended to cry with gratitude. He bowed deeply and said, "Thank you, Master, for your teachings."
"Don't leave in a hurry after you pay the tribute. Tomorrow I will be hosting a banquet for many family patriarchs and chamber of commerce leaders in the city. Remember to attend on time at noon tomorrow. Making more friends will be good for your future."
"Thank you, Master, for your cultivation. My subordinates will never dare to forget your kindness."
After Guo Huai paid the tribute, he left the city lord's mansion under the guidance of his attendants. As soon as he stepped out of the door, he saw Su Hao who was on duty.
Guo Huai stepped forward and said hello: "Brother Su, when will you get off work? I'll treat you to a drink."
Su Hao raised his head and looked at the setting sun in the sky, and replied: "It's about half an hour before we can leave for work. Brother Guo, you don't have to be polite."
"I'll wait for you at the teahouse over there." Guo Huai pointed to a teahouse in the distance.
When Su Hao saw that Guo Huai was sincerely inviting him to drink, he stopped trying to evade the offer. The two agreed that Su Hao would go find him after tea.
Guo Huai and Ling Zhantian tasted a pot of fairy tea in the tea house, and Su Hao had already left for work.
"Brother Su, I'm new here. I don't know which restaurant is the best in this city. I would like to ask Brother Su to point out a good place."
"The best restaurant in Fucheng is naturally Yuelaixiang!" Su Hao changed into low-key and energetic casual clothes and said with a smile.
After hearing this, Guo Huai raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said, "Okay, then let's go to Yuelaixiang."
The three of them got into the carriage pulled by the bull demon and soon arrived at Yuelaixiang.
The sky has darkened now. Yuelaixiang is nine stories tall and covers a large area. The entire upstairs is brightly lit. People drinking and playing for money, singing songs, and shouting one after another, it's really lively.
As soon as we entered the restaurant, there was a buzz of people.
As soon as the waiter saw the guests coming, he hurried forward, nodded and bowed and asked: "Are the guests here at the top or staying in the hotel?"
Guo Huai said: "We are here to drink. Find us a seat by the window."
"Okay, please come upstairs!" The waiter led the three of them to a window seat on the third floor with a smile on his face.
The three of them sat down, ordered a few side dishes to go with the wine, and ordered a jar of good wine.
After a while, the food and wine were served. Guo Huai poured wine for Su Hao and Ling Zhantian and said, "Brother Su, I want to toast you. We are destined to meet each other. The first time I saw Brother Su, I felt like we were old friends at first sight. "
Su Hao quickly picked up the wine glass and said, "Brother Guo, you're welcome. We are all brothers, so there is no need to see anyone outside."
The three of them drank it all in one gulp, and then drank happily and talked happily. From major world events to trivial matters, we talk about everything. Unknowingly, the jar of wine has reached the bottom.
Guo Huai asked the waiter to serve another jar of wine and said, "This wine is really good. It is soft in the mouth and has a long aftertaste."
Ling Zhantian said: "This Yuelaixiang wine is famous throughout the city. If Brother Guo likes it, he can take a jar back with him when he leaves."
Guo Huai said: "Okay, then I'm welcome."
At this time, Su Hao suddenly said: "Brother Guo, do you have anything else to do when you come to Fucheng this time besides handing over the offerings?"
Guo Huai's heart tightened. Could it be that Su Hao knew the purpose of his visit? He calmed down and said with a smile: "Don't talk about it yet, I really have something to ask Brother Su."
"Brother Guo, if you need any help, please just ask. As long as I can do it, I won't refuse." Su Hao patted his chest and said.
Guo Huai's heart moved and he said: "I came here this time to hand over one of the artifacts for enshrinement, and the other to create a mid-grade immortal artifact. The others are nothing."
"What's so rare about this? The Zhao family of Beiping Prefecture is the best at refining weapons, so they can make middle-grade immortal weapons. Their Tianhuo Forging Workshop is in Hushanfang City. I'll take you there tomorrow."
"It would be great to have Brother Su leading the way." Guo Huaiyou offered Su Hao a bowl of wine and said, "We also have a Yuelaixiang in Yicheng. Is there any connection with the current Yuelaixiang?"
Su Hao whispered: "You don't have to ask, I will tell you. You are a branch of the Yicheng Sheng family and the Sheng family of Beiping Mansion. Brother Guo heard that you will attend the palace master's banquet tomorrow. You must be careful. The revenge of the family.”
Guo Huai frowned and said, "How strong is the Sheng family in Beiping Mansion?"
"Although the Sheng family is not one of the top three families in Beiping Mansion, it is still a first-class family. The strength of the Sheng family should not be underestimated." Su Hao pointed out.
Guo Huai was shocked. He didn't expect that the Sheng family was so powerful in Beiping Mansion. He had to be careful in dealing with it tomorrow.
The next day, Su Hao came to Yuelaixiang Restaurant where Guo Huai was staying early in the morning. After drinking last night, Guo Huai and Ling Zhantian were the first to stay here.
Su Hao was very trustworthy and took Guo Huai to the Tianhuo Forging Workshop in Hushanfang City early in the morning. This was the business of the Zhao family in Beiping Prefecture. Su Hao was familiar with the person in charge here.
For Su Hao's sake, the other party gave Guo Huai a lot of discounts. A set of mid-grade flying knives with seven flying knives in total cost an additional 150,000 immortal crystals.
The Lingyun Feizhou that needed to be repaired only needed 10,000 Immortal Crystals. Seeing Guo Huai readily pay 160,000 Immortal Crystals without blinking an eye, such lavish behavior also made Su Hao envious.
Although he is one of the guards of the city lord's palace, his salary is only five thousand immortal crystals a year. In addition, he also has to live, socialize and practice, so he has not grabbed any immortal crystals.
Seeing that it was getting late, Su Hao reminded: "Brother Guo, I think we should go back early. You have to rush to attend the palace master's banquet!"
Guo Huai nodded and thanked: "Thank you, Brother Su, for reminding me. Let's go back now!"
