Chapter 227 The aftermath of selling grain at a low price
Yu Shuo did not immediately agree, "I have to go out for a classmate party tonight and will be there soon. What's so urgent? Can we talk about it another day?"
"No! Come here right now!"
Yu Qingli interrupted his son's bargaining.
This was the first time he was so strong with his son. The command and irrefutability in his words made Yu Shuo feel that the situation was serious.
"Okay, I'll be right there." He agreed, hung up the phone, and went upstairs to change his clothes.
After a while, I got in the family car and headed straight for Haijiang Hotel.
Haijiang Hotel belongs to my uncle's property. My father called him over. Could it be related to my uncle's affairs?
Thinking of his uncle who was still in a coma in the hospital this morning, although he was out of danger, the matter was not over yet. He realized that the number of people around his home had more than doubled.
Thinking about the recent situation at home, Yu Shuo sat in the car and postponed all upcoming gatherings with classmates and friends.
On the way to where Yu Shuo was, Gu Jin asked Grandpa Yu some more questions about cultivators, and even vaguely mentioned the matter of alchemy.
When the old man heard Gu Jin mention alchemy, he didn't think there was anything wrong, nor did he think about Gu Jin. After all, she had a rare predictive ability and her cultivation was so high. Moreover, all cultivators knew the art of alchemy and knew how precious and rare elixirs were.
"Decades ago, alchemists were very rare. Now, I haven't heard of any alchemists. Even if there are any, they are hidden by the major families."
This means that there are alchemists in this world. Gu Jin got the answer and nodded slightly.
She had another question that puzzled her: "Mr. Yu said that all the major families in Youcheng have cultivators who pledged their allegiance to them. But how could these cultivators be so outstanding that they would be willing to pledge their allegiance to them? Is there something unspeakable here?"
The old man shook his head and said: "Most of the children of the four major families are practitioners of supernatural powers. Moreover, the abilities of these families are there, and the rare treasures they need for cultivation are easier to obtain than ordinary people. Their abilities are superior to those of casual practitioners from the outside world.
Moreover, most of the monks who pledged allegiance were lured in, and a small number of them pledged allegiance voluntarily. The relationship between the two was like that between superiors and subordinates, or a cooperative relationship.”
Gu Jin nodded to show that he understood.
Old Master Yu looked at her deeply and said, "Miss Gu, people like you are destined not to be hidden and will be discovered sooner or later. If your current super high cultivation level is spread to Youcheng, it will definitely cause competition among the four major families.
Some things should be planned early, especially your selling of grain at a low price some time ago. This is a good thing, but it has violated the interests of many people. Even though Wanhai City is far away from Youcheng, many things will eventually be traced back to you if someone wants to investigate. "
Gu Jin's face changed. She held her forehead and said, "I didn't sell the grain myself. Most of it was delivered to others to sell. It shouldn't be traced back to me, right?"
Her words were also somewhat uncertain.
“No, no.” Old Master Yu shook his head and sighed, “Do you know how many people have made preparations for the famine in the Spirit Realm this year, hoping to make some ill-gotten gains? Miss Gu, you have touched the interests of these people.
Wanhai City is the least affected area in the entire Lingyu Continent. Youcheng has been affected more than here. The one million tons of food you gave Xiaohai are already on the way to Youcheng.
Once these grains arrive in Youcheng, someone from above will definitely set their sights on this place. If they really want to investigate, Miss Gu will have nowhere to hide."
