Xiyuan was designated as Daocheng, and it has a history of nearly two hundred years.

Over the past two hundred years, there have been countless Taoist generals, but none like Zhang Yuan, who not only took the initiative to go out and kill bandits and robbers, but also openly auctioned the seized stolen goods.

Even though Xiyuan City has a strong business atmosphere, everyone was shocked by his action.

Daoying not only released the news of the auction, but also announced the specific details.

For example, merchants participating in the auction need to verify their capital and pay a deposit. If they regret bidding, not only will the deposit be confiscated, but they will also have to make up the difference...

Although auctioning goods is nothing new, the detailed rules and many new terms have opened the eyes of merchants in Xiyuan City.

There are many people who are eager to participate in this auction.

This also led to Zhang Yuan's fame, and even several counties neighboring Xiyuan were spreading his achievements.

In fact, some of the mountain strongholds that Zhang Yuan led the Taoist soldiers to attack were not within the scope of Xiyuan City.

He was considered to have crossed the border to suppress bandits, which was a very serious crime according to the laws of Daqian.

But Zhang Yuan was a general on the road, and he killed bandits. Not to mention the places that were "invaded", even Fei Hongming could not use this crime to trouble him.

Fei Hongming is now in a difficult situation.

According to an insider from the Dao Yamen, the second son of the Fei family was whipped several times recently and his legs were almost broken.

For a time, the prestige of the Xiyuan Daoying even surpassed that of the Dao Yamen!
As the protagonist standing at the center of the storm, Zhang Yuan has not taken his Taoist soldiers out to "generate income" in recent days.

First of all, all the powerful bandits and robbers in Xiyuan County have been wiped out, and it is impossible for them to be "refreshed" in a short period of time for him to hunt in the wild. The public security situation is better than ever before.

Secondly, a group of Taoist soldiers attacked frequently. Although they had received excellent training, they were also quite tired.

It takes some time to rest and recover.

Finally, there are too many stolen goods seized and they need to be sold to recover the funds.

In the White Tiger Hall of the Taoist Camp, Zhang Yuan sat in front of a desk, flipping through a thick account book with an expressionless face.

This records the income of Daoying over the past month.

Military lieutenant Mo Yanchang stood solemnly aside.

"Report!"

At this moment, a sentry rushed to the hall and saluted Zhang Yuan, saying, "Sir, there is a man outside who is said to be from the Tuda tribe, Jagad, who wants to see you."

Tuda tribe, Jagad?

Zhang Yuan frowned and turned to look at Mo Yanchang beside him.

Mo Yanchang thought for a moment, nodded and replied, "There is indeed such a person, a great merchant from the Western Regions."

He spoke briefly and to the point, and Zhang Yuan understood.

Anyone who can be called a "great merchant" is not an ordinary person.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Yuan said calmly: "Please ask him to come in."

The sentry took the order and left.

Mo Yanchang bowed and asked, "Sir, should I withdraw first?"

"unnecessary."

Zhang Yuan shook his head: "Let's listen to what this great businessman wants to say."

Mo Yanchang bowed silently.

Although this Confucian scholar has only been in Xiyuan Daoying for a short time and has no cultivation strength of his own.

But in fact, Mo Yanchang has become the second-in-command of Daoying.

He is deeply trusted by Zhang Yuan.

Currently, all civil affairs of the Taoist camp are under the charge of Mo Yanchang.

Including the most important financial power!
But even though he holds great power, Mo Yanchang remains cautious and his behavior is impeccable.

This Confucian scholar has experienced many ups and downs in his official career and is now truly mature.

Soon, the sentry brought a bearded man in a white robe to the White Tiger Hall. Behind the man was a veiled girl!
"Jagad of the Tuda tribe greets His Excellency General Dao!"

The bearded man placed his right hand on his chest and saluted Zhang Yuan in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.

The girls behind him knelt down at the same time.

"Please take a seat."

Zhang Yuan made a gesture and ordered, "Bring the tea."

"Thank you, sir."

That Jagad bowed slightly and then sat down in the seat calmly.

The girl he brought with him stood quietly aside.

After the servant brought the tea, Jagad coughed lightly and said, "Master Zhang, I am making this visit mainly to learn about the Daoying auction."

"in addition…"

He winked at the girl next to him and said, "This gift is just a token of my appreciation. Please accept it."

The masked girl walked forward, bowed before Zhang Yuan, and held up a golden box with both hands.

Zhang Yuan noticed that the girl had extremely fair skin and large, bright eyes. Although his true appearance could not be seen, she had the appearance of a beautiful lady and was definitely a top-notch beauty.

And he also smelled a faint fragrance like orchid and musk!

Zhang Yuan calmly reached out and opened the lid of the box, only to see a gem the size of a baby's fist inside.

This gemstone is red in color, like a flame condensed to the extreme, emitting a breathtaking light, combining beauty and mystery.

Zhang Yuan suddenly became interested.

Because this is not an ordinary ruby, it contains the power of Qianyang and is one of the treasures of heaven and earth.

He smiled and said, "This gift is a bit expensive."

The prices of most natural treasures cannot be measured in monetary terms, but their high value is unquestionable.

It is hard not to speculate on the other party's intentions when they give such an expensive gift on the first meeting.

Jagade politely replied, "It's just a small token of appreciation from our Tuda tribe."

Zhang Yuan's heart moved.

This Jagad is a traveling merchant, but his words clearly imply that he can represent the Tuda tribe.

His identity must be extraordinary.

This made Zhang Yuan think of the noble lady from the Hulan tribe.

He waved his hand, and the box held by the masked girl disappeared instantly.

The masked girl was stunned.

There was also a flash of surprise in Jagade's eyes.

His cultivation level was quite high, but he did not see Zhang Yuan's techniques and movements clearly at all, and only felt that they were unfathomable.

Zhang Yuan said calmly, "I accept this gift. If you need anything about the Daoying auction, please discuss it with this Mo Yanchang Mo Junwei."

As he said this, he pointed at Mo Yanchang next to him.

The biggest secret of Zhang Yuan is the Divine Nest. In the past, he never showed the extraordinary abilities granted by the host in front of others.

But now Zhang Yuan's strength has reached the peak of the sixth level, and creatures such as the Gray-fanged Lynx and the Red-eyed Crow are gradually becoming known to people, so he doesn't mind showing off his strength occasionally.

Many times, pretending to be cool is very effective!
And Jagade's eyes looked a little strange.

The main purpose of his visit this time was not to auction the stolen goods.

Instead, he wanted to get to know and make friends with Zhang Yuan, the general of Xiyuan Road.

He spared no expense for this.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Yuan turned out to be more difficult to deal with than he expected! (End of this chapter)
