Chapter 716 Borrowing Land
Compared to when Fu Qingzhou came three years ago, the current Changqing Escort Agency has expanded a lot.

It seems that business is doing well.

"Brother Fu also deserves credit for this."

Yang Liuqing explained with a smile: "After the battle against Huo Yaer outside Luoyi City, Master was seriously injured and had to recuperate for a long time. Our business was originally reduced because of this, but later, the reward from the court came."

He led Fu Qingzhou to the backyard where the hot pot smoke was rising, but pointed to the main hall not far away: "Look."

Fu Qingzhou looked in the direction he pointed and saw a gold-painted plaque hanging above the main hall door with five large characters written on it.

The best dart in the world!
"Hey, good guy."

Fu Qingzhou's eyes lit up: "The emperor is giving you this kind of face?"

"Hahahaha, that's your face, Fu Xiaoyou!"

Before Yang Liuqing could speak, a burst of loud laughter came from not far away.

Following the sound, I saw Xiong Shao leading a group of bodyguards and coming out in person to greet them.

He was much thinner than before, and his face was not rosy. It was obvious that the injuries left in that battle had not yet fully recovered.

But he was full of energy and had a bright smile on his face.

"Liu Qing!"

Xiong Shao cast a reproachful look at Yang Liuqing: "You don't know the rules. Why didn't you inform us first when Mr. Fu came? And you are shirtless like this, how can you be so decent? If Master Jingming saw you, wouldn't it be a great offense?"

"Oh..." Yang Liuqing lowered his head, not daring to refute, turned around and ran away.

Fu Qingzhou laughed and saluted to Xiong Shao: "Boss Xiong, long time no see."

"Yeah, long time no see!"

Xiong Shao laughed and said, "I always wonder when Mr. Fu will come to visit our Changqing Escort Agency again!"

After not seeing each other for a few months, I have become Fu Xiaoyou...

He is also not that old, but he has already called himself an old man? Is he preparing to retire?
Fu Qingzhou laughed secretly in his heart, but did not expose Chief Xiong's little thoughts.

At Xiong Shao's enthusiastic invitation, he entered the backyard.

Just as Yang Liuqing said, the escort agency was eating hot pot in the snow and wind tonight. There were five large tables of hot pot in the yard. The aroma was overwhelming and the food was hot. Fu Qingzhou didn't hesitate and took a seat immediately.

"Hey, why don't I see Uncle Jingming?"

After Shuangshuang ate a few bites, Fu Qingzhou turned around and asked, "I heard from Brother Yang that she's here."

"Hahaha, Master Jingming doesn't like noise, she should be resting in the guest room."

Xiong Shao smiled and said, "My dear Fu, you are her nephew, so you can just come and visit her later."

Fu Qingzhou smiled and nodded.

"Come on, let's not talk about this for now, let's drink!" Xiong Shao picked up the wine glass: "Last time in Luoyi, I was injured and couldn't drink with you, what a pity!"

Fu Qingzhou responded and raised his glass to drink.

But once he started drinking, he couldn't stop. The escort leaders and escort masters around him came up to toast him. Some were bold and some were shy, but they all stiffened their necks and blushed, and said, "I'll drink it, you can do as you please," and then drank the wine in one gulp.

These guys drank very hard, and from time to time someone would run outside the yard and lean against a tree to vomit.

This feeling……

What do you say?
It feels like a big boss from the head office visiting the branch office and attending dinner parties at night...

When Xiong Shao laughed and shouted that he wanted to fight a round, Fu Qingzhou finally got drunk. He pressed the other party's wrist and whispered, "Chief Escort, we have something important to discuss tonight..."

"Oh, yes, yes."

Xiong Shao slapped his forehead and said, "I'm so happy, I almost forgot about this!"

After that, he stood up and waved his hand: "You guys continue to eat and drink, I will go talk to you, Mr. Fu!"

The escort leaders and escorts were drunk, clasping their fists and shouting in a chaotic response. Fu Qingzhou and Xiong Shao staggered and supported each other, away from the bustling backyard, but did not go to the main hall, but went directly to the side hall on the other side, bypassed a corridor, and entered Xiong Shao's own bedroom.

As soon as the door was closed, the two men's eyes immediately became clear, and there was no trace of drunkenness anymore.

"Friend Fu."

As Xiong Shao lit the candle, he asked in a low voice: "Do we need to be so careful?"

"Yes." Fu Qingzhou smiled: "Is it safe to talk here?"

"rest assured."

Xiong Shao nodded: "Although I haven't broken through the cave, I have met many friends over the years. I asked them to do some decoration, especially this bedroom."

As he spoke, he smiled with some pride, "I change the use of this room every once in a while. Sometimes it is a study, sometimes a bedroom, sometimes a tea room, sometimes a woodshed... We escorts hold the most important things of our guests in our hands, so we must be careful."

Fu Qingzhou laughed.

But I have to say that Xiong Shao's move was quite unexpected.

"Then let's talk business." Fu Qingzhou sat down at the table and said seriously, "Captain Xiong should have noticed that when we were having dinner and drinking just now, many people in your escort agency have been replaced by the secret envoys of Mingjian Pavilion."

"Yes."

Xiong Shao asked tentatively: "Are they okay?"

"Don't worry, it's all right." Fu Qingzhou said with a smile, "We will treat them well, but we have to put up with them temporarily before we can accomplish our mission."

"Little things, little things!"

Xiong Shao waved his hand and said, "My dear friend Fu, there is only one Master Jingming in our escort agency right now. You are so cautious, you are not on guard against your own uncle, right?"

"How could that be?" Fu Qingzhou said with a smile, "I'm just worried that someone has arrived but hasn't shown up yet."

Xiong Shao was stunned for a moment, but quickly understood.

He knew that he was the first person to receive a letter from Fu Qingzhou.

The letter clearly stated that he needed to borrow the Changqing Escort Agency.

what is it used for?
Use it as a temporary venue for meetings with bigwigs from all over the world.

But there is more to it than that.

The letter clearly stated that Fu Qingzhou suspected that Jiang Baichuan had accomplices in the martial arts world. This time, he borrowed the Changqing Escort Agency's precious land instead of letting Mingjian Pavilion prepare a place on their own in order to let the person hiding in the dark relax his vigilance.

It was for this reason that he needed to replace at least half of the people in Changqing Escort Agency with secret envoys from Mingjian Pavilion.

"Master Fu."

Xiong Shao changed his address and spoke more cautiously: "You... don't doubt me?"

Fu Qingzhou laughed: "Captain Xiong, you are joking. If you were Jiang Baichuan's accomplice, or a subordinate of that 'lord', your life would be much better now."

Xiong Shao was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

After laughing, he sighed again: "I can't believe that the last time we met was at the Hidden Dragon Hundred Heroes Conference. Brother Jiang Baichuan... was the leader of the Wulin Alliance at that time, but now he has become a wanted criminal that everyone wants to kill."

"When he was the leader of the Wulin Alliance, he was truly dedicated to doing good."

Fu Qingzhou said softly: "It's just that he has an extra demon in his heart that he can't control. If we can control him and kill him, it can be considered as helping him."

"rational."

Xiong Shao sighed and said seriously, "Then I don't know what else I need to do next?"

"What I need you to do, Chief Escort, is very simple."

Fu Qingzhou smiled: "In total, it's just one thing."
