Anfu Inn is the most luxurious inn in Liuyang City. The people who live here are either rich or noble. However, during this period, the entire Anfu Inn has been booked and no individual guests are allowed to stay.
Of course, people who can have such energy are not ordinary people, and they cannot even be held by wealth and power. In Liuyang City, there is no one except cultivators who can do this.
In the inn, the shopkeeper stood behind a white-faced old man with a careless look on his face, and the old man looked sad and worried.
The shopkeeper accompanied him cautiously, "Don't worry too much about the Third Dong family. Isn't the Second Master still talking to them? Since they are talking, there is hope."
The white-faced old man sighed, "Talk? What's so easy to talk about? If a tiger talks to you about eating one of your legs, what will be the outcome of your talks with him? Give him an arm instead?"
The old man's surname is Bai, a wealthy businessman in Shendu. His entire family has businesses in various countries in the southwest, and even has business in the southeast, northwest, and north... It is one of the most famous time-honored brands in Shendu, and Anfu Inn is also a property of the Bai family.
, but not many people know about it.
Over the years, Anhe has been in turmoil, with undercurrents surging; the original binding force of the Southwest Theory of Taoism has long since disappeared in the past few years. The Wu Sect continues to penetrate into Anhe according to their plans, and some monks from the Anhe Taoist Sect have
With the help of Anhe, the business community began to exclude dissidents, and the party was united and opposed.
As a result, many folk cultivators who did not want to join the others left Anhe and found another place to settle down;
This is the case for Gusou, but he is all alone. He can just leave without any worries, but wealthy businessmen cannot come and go freely. If people leave, what will happen to Anhe's business? There are so many shops.
, employees, and connections cannot just be thrown away.
This is the situation of the Bai family. Their head monk is the second master in the shopkeeper's mouth. He has reached the golden elixir level, which is the biggest guarantee that the Bai family can survive in the world of cultivation. However, the second master Bai's friends are all from the Anhe Taoist sect.
Those who advocate independence and oppose mergers are in a very difficult situation now.
In the Shendu business district, several giant merchant families and countless small and medium-sized merchants are waiting to see how the Wu family will deal with the rebellious Bai family, and use this as a basis for their own sides.
The Bai family has now become the benchmark for the Shendu business district and even the Anhe business district. This is the Bai family's misfortune and the inevitable trend.
A speck of dust of the times becomes a huge mountain when it falls on a family.
For this reason, the Bai family fought, and of course there were also the forces of the Anhe Taoist sect that insisted on independence behind it. This was a competition between the two sides, and countless pairs of eyes were staring at this incident, trying to judge the power of both sides.
One is ebbing and the other is ebbing, is it the fierce dragon from Wumen that crosses the river? Or is it the local snake from Anhedaomen that is stronger?
No merchant wants to be dragged into such a focus of competition, but this is not something they can decide, so they can only passively endure it.
For this reason, the Bai family has made full preparations and prepared for the worst; the head of the Bai family, Uncle Bai, is unable to move and controls the overall situation, drawing too much attention on him; the second master is a golden elixir monk,
Together with his friends from Anhe Daomen who support him, he is facing the high pressure from Wumen and is currently negotiating.
As a back-up man, Mr. Bai Sanye, the business genius of the Bai family, secretly left the capital city and quietly sneaked to the border with only a few close relatives and descendants to stay in the sun. In order to cover up other people's eyes, the masters in the family did not dare to bring him with him for fear of attracting others.
Wumen’s attention.
For their group, Mr. Bai is also a Tongxuan monk after all, and several of his descendants are also Lianqiao Bigu. For the wealthy businessman family who don't have to worry about resources, they are very familiar with how to use resources to build a monk.
If you're good at it, as for your strength, that doesn't matter, as long as you can hit it with treasures.
Why come to Liuyang? Because the Quanzhen Sect opposite is the only one in the southwest region that dares and can fight against the Wu Sect. Of course, the Taoists stationed in Liuyang are also an independent sect, which is why they dare to come here.
This place is separated from the country of Shan by a poplar forest, and it is very convenient to walk there. Mr. Bai decided to stay here and wait for news. For a family that has been living and operating in this country for hundreds of years, it is not the last step.
, no one wants to leave.
Because they all know that if they leave, they will never come back.
Hearing what Mr. Bai said, the shopkeeper couldn't say anything. He was just an old servant of the Bai family. Because Mr. Bai saw that he had been diligent and diligent throughout his life and had no ability to get around in Xiuzhenfang City, he went to a remote border city.
Liuyang has set up such an industry, which does not require any business talent, just being honest and diligent. It can not only accommodate old servants, but also leave a way out for himself.
"Third Master, let me go to the kitchen and have a look. I got you some rare local things today..."
Mr. Bai waved his hand. How could he be in such a mood now? But he was in such a good mood that he couldn't say much.
He stood in the courtyard for a long time, thinking about it and having no clue about the current situation. He is a genius in business, but he is powerless in the world of cultivation where strength speaks for itself.
With a long sigh, he turned back to the room. In the luxurious living room, five young people, three men, two women, were chatting boredly. They were all rising stars of the Bai family, direct descendants, some were extremely talented in business, and some were in the business.
Those who stand out in spiritual practice are the future of the Bai family.
Third Master Bai brought them out this time with the intention of leaving seeds for the Bai family. For any force, whether it is a cultivator force, a businessman or a powerful person, when the family is facing life and death, there will be such a seed plan, and it cannot be ignored.
They served it in one pot.
These people are all cousins. In a big family like the Bai family, it is easy to imagine that they usually have a close relationship, but when the family encounters a big obstacle that cannot be overcome, they are the glue that seals the relationship between them.
"Zong Sheng, what are you talking about?"
Bai Zongsheng, who belongs to Uncle Bai's lineage, stood up and said respectfully, "Third uncle, we have been chatting here for more than half a month, and I don't know what is going on in the capital of the gods? There is no information here in Liuyang, and it is inconvenient to communicate.
You don’t want to use cultivation methods to contact us, so why don’t you send someone back to inquire? You can’t just keep waiting like this, right?”
It is normal for young people to be impatient. This means that these children, who have received strict elite education from their families since childhood, would have been impatient for a few other people. How could they endure for a month and a half before speaking.
Next to him, Bai Zongfang also said: "Is it possible that since we can talk for such a long time, it is possible to reach an agreement? After all, if we can't compromise in principle, we should have fought hard to meet each other, right?"
Mr. Bai did not comment, but focused on a woman sitting quietly in the corner, like an orchid in an empty valley, with an intellectual aura all over her body. Among these descendants, he actually favored this niece the most.
