Zhao Xu followed Scar Wu Zheng to the mourning hall, knelt on the futon, and kowtowed respectfully to Master Jiu for three long hours.

"Return the favor!" Scar Wu Zheng shouted loudly.

I saw people from Jiutang dressed neatly, with filial belts on their bodies, returning the courtesy to Zhao Xu.

The news of Master Jiu's death has just spread. Today and tomorrow, many people will come to the "Yangnian Pavilion" Villa to pay homage to Master Jiu.

Among the crowd, two people stood out.

One was an old lady wearing a long black leather coat, and the other was a man over fifty with a red face, who looked like he was drunk.

When Zhao Xu stood up, Scar Wu Zheng guided him to the woman and man, and introduced Zhao Xu: "Mr. Zhao, this lady is Lan Xin from the South Hall under Jiutang, and this is Guo Zhengliang from the West Hall

,Brother Guo."

"Hall Master Lan, Hall Master Guo, this is Mr. Zhao Xu Zhao, the new top speaker of Jiu Tang."

The eyes of the woman named Lan Xin and Guo Zhengliang fell on Zhao Xu at the same time.

The two of them had heard of Zhao Xu's name for a long time, but they didn't expect that it was a little different from the one in the legend. Why did he look yellow and waxy, a bit like a sick man?

Master Jiu made a will during his lifetime, and after his death, "Jiu Tang" was handed over to Zhao Xu to take care of.

Ever since Jiuye started serious business, he has owned many industries. The main industries are concentrated in the hands of the four major halls.

Zhao Xu had met many of Jiu Ye's people before. However, the four halls under his company were spread across other cities in Province J for the company's business. Therefore, Zhao Xu had never met these four hall masters.

Master Jiu has no descendants. He suddenly left a will and announced that Zhao Xu would be the master of Hall Nine. This made all four hall masters quite complaining.

Guo Zhengliang's name sounds quite polite, but he is actually a rough, red-faced man.

"Boy, who are you? Why should you be the leader of the Nine Halls?" Guo Zhengliang glared at Zhao Xu and yelled.

Jiuye told him about the character of each of the four major hall masters under his banner, and he knew that Guo Zhengliang was a brave and foolhardy guy. He had brute strength, but he was not even qualified to advance to the "Martial God Ranking". But this person had no regard for Jiuye

Loyal and sincere, Master Jiu is relieved to leave some properties to Guo Zhengliang to take care of.

Zhao Xu smiled slightly and said, "Just because I am Zhao Xu."

"Zhao, you are the head of the Nine Halls, and I will be the first to disobey you." Guo Zheng said angrily.

Zhao Xu was not angry and said to Guo Zhengliang: "Jiu Ye just died. I don't want to talk to you about this matter. After Jiu Ye is buried, I will let you know why I, Zhao Xu, can take over Jiutang. In short,

, I am now the talker of Jiutang, you have to listen to me."

"Bah! You are a little brat, but you still want me, Lao Guo, to listen to you. Just have your big dreams!"

Zhao Xu dodged to avoid the spit from Guo Zhengliang, with an angry look on his face. He said, "I will make you pay for your actions today!"

He plans to teach Guo Zhengliang a lesson afterwards. If you don't control such a brave and foolhardy person, he will not be convinced by you in his heart.

"Okay! I hope you can let me, Lao Guo, see what you are capable of. Otherwise, I will be the first to object to you becoming the talker of Jiutang."

Lan Xin looked at Zhao Xu and asked, "What is your relationship with Master Jiu?"

Zhao Xu couldn't tell the true relationship between himself and Jiu Ye, so he said perfunctorily: "We have been friends for many years!"

Lan Xin looked at Zhao Xu and said coldly: "Boy, you'd better tell the truth. Although you are the talker of Jiutang, but you only want to be the talker of Jiutang based on your will, I'm afraid you won't be able to be a talker for long.

"

Zhao Xu had long thought that this would be the case.

This Lan Xin was Jiu Ye's admirer, but Jiu Ye had no children or grandchildren in his life, and Lan Xin never married. When Jiu Ye told Zhao Xu this, he said that he regretted it. The person he had let down the most in his life was

Lan Xin.

Zhao Xu still respected Lan Xin in his heart. After listening to Lan Xin's words, he smiled and said: "Actually, I don't want to be Jiutang's boss. However, I am entrusted by others, so I have to bite the bullet even if I don't want to be.

Go up. Aunt Lan, you don’t want to destroy me before I succeed to the throne, do you?”

Zhao Xu called out "Aunt Lan", which made Lan Xin look slightly shocked.

Lan Xin thought in her heart: Why did this kid call her Aunt Lan? Was he trying to get close to her, or did Master Jiu tell him something?

At this moment, a man shouted with a loud voice from outside: "Master! Master!"

When Zhao Xu heard that Nong Quan was coming, he winked at Scar Wu Zheng and said, "Wu Zheng, go and bring Nong Quan in."

"Yes!" Wu Zheng turned around and walked out.

When Zhao Xu came to the "Yangnian Pavilion", he called Nong Quan and Can Jian Hua and asked them to come to Jiuye's "Yangnian Pavilion" immediately. But he did not make it clear to Nong Quan that Jiuye

things that passed away.

Nong Quan and Can Jian Hua came to the "Yangnian Pavilion" and saw that the villa seemed to be holding a funeral. They were worried about Zhao Xu's safety, so they hurried over.

After entering the mourning hall, Nong Quan saw that Zhao Xu was safe and sound and said happily: "Master! So you are here. Hey, why is there a coffin here? Who died?"

Zhao Xu saw Nong Quan's careless look. This was Master Jiu's mourning hall, how could he be allowed to be so presumptuous?

"Nong Quan, Master Jiu is dead! Kneel down and kowtow to Master Jiu."

"What? Master Jiu is dead?"

Nong Quan couldn't believe his ears. He had followed Zhao Xu to the "Yangnian Pavilion" villa many times. Master Jiu treated him like his own grandfather. Whenever Nong Quan came, he would bring him a roasted whole lamb.

Suddenly hearing the news of Jiu Ye's death, Nong Quan really couldn't accept this fact.

Nong Quan knelt on the futon and cried loudly, "Wow!" and while crying, he muttered: "Jiuye, why are you dead? I haven't eaten enough roasted whole lamb. Have you been killed by someone?

Yes, if you entrust me with Nongquan in your dream, I will definitely avenge you!"

Seeing Nong Quan crying at the top of his lungs was really beyond Zhao Xu's expectation. He didn't expect Zhao Xu to have such deep feelings for Master Jiu.

Without saying a word, Canjian Hua also knelt on the futon and kowtowed respectfully for three long hours.

After all, the dead are the most important and should be respected!

Nong Quan came to Zhao Xu with Broken Sword Hua. Nong Quan asked Zhao Xu, "Young Master, why did Master Jiu die?"

Zhao Xu couldn't laugh or cry after hearing this. He suppressed his laughter and said to Nong Quan seriously: "Okay, stop crying. Just stand aside and stop talking!"

Zhao Xu had already spoken, and Nong Quan naturally followed suit.

Canjian Hua was holding a long sword and standing beside him. He and Nong Quan stood beside Zhao Xu on the left and right, giving people a strong sense of oppression.

Lan Xin and Guo Zhengliang glanced at each other, and both saw that Nong Quan and Can Jian Hua were not economical. They had also heard about Zhao Xu. They heard that this guy named "Nong Quan" was very good at fighting. See

At least he is a figure on the "Martial God List".

After Zhao Xu greeted Lan Xin and Guo Zhengliang, he took Nong Quan and Can Jian Hua to a corner of the mourning hall.

He whispered to Nong Quan and Can Jian Hua: "No one is allowed to touch Master Jiu in the coffin for a while."

After Zhao Xu finished giving instructions to the two of them, he returned to Scar Wu Zheng's side.

After hearing Zhao Xu's words, Nong Quan and Can Jian Hua couldn't help but look slightly stunned. Then, the two of them walked towards Master Jiu's coffin without saying a word.

Although Nong Quan and Can Jian Hua didn't know why Zhao Xu said this, they always followed Zhao Xu as their leader.

One after another, some business leaders from Lincheng began to come to pay their respects.

I heard the person on the sentry post shouting at the top of his lungs: "Chen Tianhe of the Rising Sun Group, Han Min is here!"

"Yeye Packaging Design Company, Mr. Li is here!"

"Wang Dezhong and Wang Ya of Wang Group are here!"

"Chen Xin Group's Chen Xiangtian, Shen Xin is here!"

"Junjie Group's Yan Ren and Yan Junjie are here!"

"Wenlong, Wenhu, Wenbao are here!"

In addition, there are some well-known business tycoons in Lincheng.

Zhao Xu knew most of the business tycoons from Lincheng. Except for those from the Lincheng Chamber of Commerce, they were also from the Lincheng Small Business Chamber of Commerce.

As noon approached, more and more people came to worship from other places.

What Zhao Xu didn't expect was that even Yang Lan and Yang Xing from the "Huai'an Group" in the provincial capital also came.

"Huai'an Group Yang Lan, Yang Xing is here!"

Zhao Xu felt dizzy when he heard the name "Yang Lan".

This is terrible. I didn’t expect that on the day Jiu Ye passed away, my wife, Li Qingqing, Wang Ya and Yang Lan would get together again.

At this moment, the sound of reports came from outside the door again.

"The master of the East Hall, Huo Gu, is here!"

"Chiang Hui, the leader of Beitang Hall, is here!"
Chapter completed!
