The previous family head of each of their families had an unfathomable cultivation. However, they had all retired and the three families had reached an agreement. Unless the survival of the clan was threatened, the three old clan heads would not participate in the clan's struggles.
There were countless sects and families of all sizes in Qilin City, but these three families were the most powerful. Qilin City had existed for countless years, but these three families had always dominated the city. It has been passed down from generation to generation for thousands of years
In the first generation, there were constant fights in the open and in the dark. They were all doing everything possible to strengthen their own strength and thinking about how to annex the other two families. Until now, it was still the same. However, as long as the three of them did not launch a large-scale battle in the city, the City Lord would be able to do so.
They wouldn't send troops to stop it. The current City Lord was called Ling Daodao, and his strength was unfathomable. Other than the three elderly heads who did not care about worldly affairs, no one had seen his true face. It was said that the City Lord had a very good relationship with the three old family heads. Every year, I have to meet the three elderly heads.
As for what he was researching, he didn't know.
After the meal, Heavenly Thunder said,
"Let's go out for a walk. Also, ask about the whereabouts of your former villagers.”
Just now, Tian Lei had asked the waiter if he knew that a group of fleeing villagers had come to Qilin City half a year ago. The waiter told Tian Lei that this Qilin City was so big, how could he know who Tian Lei was talking about? Besides, it had been half a year since the incident.
Even if the waiter had seen it before, he would have probably forgotten about it. There were refugees coming to Qilin City almost every day, so how could they tell who was who?
However, the waiter told Tian Lei that there were refugees who came to Qilin City to take refuge all year round. The city lord had specially vacated a piece of land in the north of the city and built a slum. They specially received some of the villagers who had fled here so that Tian Lei could go there to search for them.
Perhaps he could find the person he was looking for.
The people living in the north of the city were basically poor. The eastern part of the city was the territory of the Feng Clan led by Feng Yun. The west of the city was the territory of the Situ Clan led by Situ Jiannan. The southern part of the city was the territory of Tie clan led by Tie Qiu Lian.
As for the northern part of the city, it was the slums established by the city lord. The three forces did not care about this place.
Qiao Niang agreed, and the two of them and the dog left the shop. They came to the main street and chatted while admiring the bustling market. The Fire Qilin also followed behind him leisurely. The passersby often cast surprised looks at the Fire Qilin. most
He had never seen a dog with red fur. However, the fire qilin ignored them all, as if it did not care that it was a freak in the eyes of these people!
As they walked, they passed by a stall selling jewelry. The stall owner was a middle-aged man in his forties. There was a wooden shelf in front of him. There were all kinds of exquisite jewelry hanging on it, most of which were handmade gadgets. But the workmanship is still
Not bad. Women naturally had no resistance to jewelry, including Qiao Niang. Tian Lei noticed that Qiao Niang's eyes were fixed on the jewelry.
Heavenly Thunder laughed and said,
"Let's go and take a look!"
Qiao Niang looked at Tian Lei and then at the jewelry. She said to Tian Lei,
"Forget it, let's go to the north of the city first.”
As he spoke, he was about to leave. Tian Lei pulled her back and smiled.
"Let's go. It doesn't cost money to take a look. There are so many exquisite jewelry. Don't you want to take a good look? Let's go!"
Without any explanation, he pulled Qiao Niang to the stall. When the stall owner saw that there was business coming, he quickly welcomed it with a smile.
"Yo, which jewelry does the little girl like? You can try it! These are all handmade and very cheap.”
Tian Lei took a fancy to a silver-white hairpin. He took off the hairpin and held it in his hand. The hairpin was a finger long, silver white, and carved with tiny patterns. There was a small butterfly at the end of the hairpin. The wings of the butterfly were made of very thin silver leaves.
The wings were also carved with exquisite patterns. With a slight touch, the wings would tremble slightly, like a butterfly dancing. It was very beautiful.
Tian Lei held the hairpin in his hand and turned around with a smile.
"Qiao Niang, what do you think of this hairpin?”
Qiao Niang turned around and her eyes lit up. She seemed to like it.
Qiao Niang said,
"Hmm…this hairpin is really beautiful.”
The stall owner saw that he wanted to buy it, so he quickly said,
"Yo, young man, you really have a unique eye! It took me several days to make this hairpin. Such a beautiful hairpin matched with such a beautiful young lady. It's really a perfect match.
Lord."
Qiao Niang's cheeks turned red from the praise and she lowered her head shyly.
Heavenly Thunder smiled and said,
"Boss, how much is this hairpin?"
The boss smiled and said,
"Two gold coins is definitely worth it!”
Heavenly Thunder said,
"Alright, I'll take it!"
When Qiao Niang heard that Tian Lei wanted to buy the hairpin, she was overjoyed. But on second thought, she felt embarrassed. Of course, the heavenly lightning had helped him too much. Furthermore, it was the heavenly lightning that was providing for him now. But now, how can I bear to?
What kind of jewelry should he buy for her?
Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, Qiao Niang said,
"Forget it, big brother Tian Lei, I don't want this! Let's go!"
Heavenly Thunder laughed and said,
"What's wrong? Don't you like it?"
Of course Qiao Niang liked it, but she couldn't accept it even if she liked it.
"I like it, but I can't have it."
Heavenly Thunder laughed and said,
"If you like it, then buy it. It's not worth a few gold coins. Besides, you don't even have a piece of jewelry. I think you'll look even more beautiful with this hairpin!”
The stall owner quickly echoed,
"Yes, yes, little girl, this hairpin really matches you!”
Qiao Niang still wanted to decline, but Tian Lei said with a straight face,
"Alright, if you continue like this, I'll be angry.”
It was difficult to refuse such a generous offer. Qiao Niang saw that Tian Lei was determined to buy it, and she really liked it, so she did not say anything.
Heavenly Thunder turned to the stall owner and said,
"Boss, I'll buy this hairpin for you.”
As he spoke, he handed two gold coins to the stall owner. When the stall owner saw that the business was successful, he was naturally happy. With a smile on his face, he reached out to take the two gold coins. At this moment, another voice sounded.
"Boss, I want this hairpin!”
It was a man's voice. The three of them turned to look. He saw an elegant young master standing beside him. This person looked to be in his twenties, two to three years older than Tian Lei. However, this was much, much stronger than the heavenly lightning.
。This person's skin was fair and tender like a baby. He had sword-like eyebrows, big eyes, long eyelashes, a high nose bridge, a square mouth, and a sharp chin. He was about a fist taller than Tian Lei, dressed in a white robe, and held a folding paper fan in his hand. At this moment, he was smiling.
He looked at Qiao Niang.
He was really a handsome man in the world! Even Heavenly Thunder could not help but be stunned by his appearance.
This person approached and said to the stall owner,
"Boss, I want this hairpin.”
The stall owner was just about to take the two gold coins from Tian Lei's hand when he was interrupted by this person, so he withdrew his hand.
The stall owner smiled and said,
"Yo, I'm really sorry, little brother. Someone already wants this hairpin. Why don't…you look at something else?”
The stall owner had encountered many such situations before. People who set up stalls and did business would come and go every day. They would meet all kinds of customers. Of course, it was not uncommon for two buyers to be interested in the same item. Therefore, the stall owner didn't panic.
。In the past, when they encountered such a thing, it was either first come, first served, or the highest bidder. In today's situation, it was definitely on a first-come, first-served basis. In other words, this hairpin should be sold to Heavenly Thunder. After all, he was already prepared to pay.
However, the stall owner did not expect that today was different from the past. After hearing the stall owner's words, the handsome man smiled slightly and said,
"Oh? It's like this!"
The stall owner hurriedly smiled apologetically and said,
"Yes, this little brother has already bought it. How about…"
The handsome man smiled and said,
"Hehe, is that so? But I saw that you didn't accept his gold coins. In other words, you haven't sold this hairpin yet. Right?"
The stall owner was taken aback and was thinking about how to answer.
"Uh…this…"
The man continued,
"How many gold coins are you selling this hairpin for?"
The stall owner hurriedly said,
"Not much, just two gold coins!"
The man continued,
"I'll give you twenty gold coins, sell it to me!”
The stall owner was stunned. Twenty gold coins! He might not even be able to sell twenty gold coins worth of jewelry in a day. Moreover, this hairpin was only worth two gold coins, and this person had to pay 20 gold coins to buy it. Then he would have made a huge profit.
Thus, the stall owner turned to Heavenly Thunder and said,
"I'm sorry, little brother. I'm going to sell this hairpin to that young master!”
Tian Lei frowned, feeling extremely displeased. He thought,
"How can you be so greedy?”
Tian Lei's face darkened as he said to the stall owner,
"No! How can you be so dishonest? You clearly agreed to sell it to me just now. You want to take the gold coins, but now you want to sell them to others?”
The stall owner was also in a difficult position. It was indeed as Tian Lei had said. However, the price that the man offered was too high. He could close the stall and go home today. That woman would definitely be happy when he returned home. Make two good dishes for yourself
She would be so happy today if she had two glasses of wine.
The stall owner didn't want his fantasy to be shattered, so he said to Tian Lei,
"I haven't confiscated your gold coins yet, so this isn't considered a business deal. Now I've changed my mind. I'm not selling this hairpin anymore. Hurry and return it to me!”
At this moment, the hairpin was still in Tian Lei's hands. Qiao Niang saw that they were about to quarrel. She didn't want Tian Lei to quarrel with someone else for a hairpin. Besides, he knew Tian Lei's temper and he was very powerful. So, Qiao Niang pulled the arm of Tian Lei
Arm, Tao
"Forget it, big brother Skythunder. Let him have this hairpin. I don't want it.”
Tian Lei was displeased and said with a dark face,
"No, I said I want to buy it.”
