Chapter 1430 Hidden Threat
Chapter 1430 Hidden Threat
Huang Tiangui was a little anxious.
"He went out this morning and should be back on time!" The housekeeper of the courtyard was also full of worries.
at this time.
Zhang Haibo and Liu Qing walked in, both of them brimming with joy.
The housekeeper hurried over to greet him, "Master Zhang, you are finally back. The senior is waiting for you in the living room. We may have something to discuss."
Duobao Pavilion in Donghai City also has a very large daily business volume.
Huang Tiangui is very busy with work and can only spare time to come here. In fact, he wants to exchange alchemy experience with Zhang Haibo.
Being able to befriend the alchemy master was also a good thing for Huang Da, the shopkeeper. He had known for a long time that Zhang Haibo was the mysterious ninth-grade alchemy master, so he had to treat him warmly.
Huang Tiangui was very happy, "Master Zhang, you are finally back. I have been waiting here for a long time and was just about to go out to look for you!"
In fact, Huang Tiangui was not particularly anxious or worried.
Donghai City is very safe and attacks by evil cultivators rarely happen, so he just waits here.
I'm not worried at all, and I look anxious, but it's all just an act.
Zhang Haibo was very sharp-minded and could naturally sense it, but he didn't take it to heart. He was just an old fox, and it would be too much to act like this.
I am just a passer-by, and it is very nice that they welcome me so warmly.
"I'm sorry, Brother Huang. I had some insights in the attic outside the city today. I didn't expect time to pass so quickly." Zhang Haibo walked up to Huang Tiangui and said with a smile.
"Hahaha, it's good that you're back. Let's go to Zuixianlou again tonight!"
"Brother, I have some good wine here."
Huang Tiangui smiled and said, "Let's get drunk tonight. Then I'll introduce two good friends to you."
In fact, Huang Tiangui had a mission to introduce Zhang Haibo.
Today's guest is very distinguished, he is the current city lord. The city lord of Donghai City is the descendant of Emperor Lu Xian, and is also a powerful person in the realm of Immortal Venerable.
Zhang Haibo shook his head and said seriously, "How can I let Big Brother keep paying for everything? Why don't I treat you tonight? Then we can get drunk together. I really want to taste the exquisite wine you mentioned."
"It's settled then. Let's go to Zuixianlou for a drink tonight!" Huang Tiangui said happily when he heard Zhang Haibo agreed.
I will definitely be able to complete the task this time and establish a good relationship with the city lord.
Although Huang Tiangui is a powerful immortal with a high status in Duobao Pavilion, he is far inferior to the Lord of Donghai City. The two are not at the same level at all.
In the eyes of true super powers, the strong in commercial forces are discriminated against, and naturally they carry strong interests.
Huang Tiangui is often regarded as a treasure trove, so he is indeed popular.
The main reason is that he is the head manager of Duobao Pavilion and controls the supply and sales of many resources.
Zhang Haibo came back to rest for a while, then quickly changed his clothes and went out.
When you come to Zuixianlou, you will see it is brightly lit at night and very lively. The scenery is even more lively and attractive than during the day.
"Senior Huang, you're here. The private room upstairs is already ready."
There was a fat man standing at the entrance of the restaurant. He was the owner of Zuixianlou.
"Master Zhang, please come upstairs!" The owner of Zuixianlou came over quickly and looked at Zhang Haibo as if he were the God of Wealth.
Tonight Huang Tiangui brought two jars of fine wine that he had collected for many years.
The private room on the third floor was very quiet. The door shut out all the noise. Huang Tiangui said to Zhang Haibo awkwardly:
"Tonight, we have two distinguished guests who will be arriving soon."
They didn't say it earlier or later. They just came to the box and sat down, and they started talking like this. Zhang Haibo couldn't help but laugh and became speechless.
Execute first and report later, haha, it seems that the manager Huang is also very treacherous.
Zhang Haibo snorted in his heart that someone was actually planning to cause trouble for him in this way.
"That's fine. Big Brother must be introducing me to some important person. I will definitely obey your orders!"
Zhang Haibo laughed, as if he didn't take this matter to heart at all.
As we all know, Zhang Haibo is a very low-key alchemist and generally does not like to interact with strangers.
Huang Tiangui should have known about this, but he didn't expect this to happen today.
It's inexplicable, just force it!
After a while, Huang Tiangui heard someone coughing at the door, so he immediately ran outside to greet tonight's distinguished guest.
"Oh, it's City Lord Lu. You're here for dinner today too."
Huang Tiangui smiled and invited the city lord Lu Wei and the guard in. The guard turned out to be a powerful immortal. It seemed that the city lord's identity was really not simple.
Zhang Haibo just arrived here and is not familiar with everything.
I don’t even know the city lord.
However, he still stood up with a smile, looking at the other party politely with a little curiosity. This distinguished guest should also have bad intentions.
City Lord Lu smiled and nodded. "Hello, Master Zhang. I'm sorry to bother you. I've been busy lately and haven't been able to come to ask for advice. I had no choice but to take advantage of my free time tonight to meet here. We have something to discuss."
Zhang Haibo said in confusion, "Hello, Lord City Lord! Please take a seat! I never thought the distinguished guest that Brother Huang was talking about was you!"
In fact, Zhang Haibo knew nothing at all and could only say this about the topic.
Huang Tiangui smiled and said:
"The City Lord invited me to have a private conversation with Master Zhang today. I happen to have something else to do so I won't bother you here."
As he spoke, Huang Tiangui made an apologetic expression towards Zhang Haibo.
City Lord Lu nodded and said, "In that case, Manager Huang, please go ahead and do your work. I'll have a good chat with Master Zhang. I've been a little presumptuous today, so I hope Master Zhang will forgive me."
Zhang Haibo felt a little helpless. He was actually tricked by Huang Tiangui.
What the hell is going on? Why couldn't they have given us advance notice?
There may be a conspiracy here.
Zhang Haibo smiled and said, "You are too polite, Lord City Lord. We can discuss whatever it is. I am just an ordinary alchemist. I don't know what the Lord City Lord wants to talk to me about today."
It’s better to be straightforward like this. Zhang Haibo hates those roundabout ways the most. It may be related to his identity.
City Lord Lu smiled and said:
"Master Zhang, are you interested in joining my East Sea City Lord's Mansion as a worshiper? I heard that Master Zhang has superb alchemy skills and can refine the highest-grade ninth-grade elixirs. So I am very presumptuous and really disturbed Master Zhang today."
"That was just a suggestion. Master Zhang, you can think about it carefully. It's okay if you refuse. Our City Lord's Mansion can become friends with Master Zhang. If you encounter any problems, you can ask me for help."
Zhang Haibo was a little stunned. The other party spoke softly and slowly, and there was even a hidden threat in his whisper.
