Bai Qingqian sighed, this is the right and wrong of the world. You can't have both spiritual practice and business, and you can't take into account family ties and interests. When the three elders of the Bai family are still alive, but are trapped in their own predicament and can't take charge, it's the best way for these clansmen to fight for power.
opportunity.
As the family gets bigger and the business gets bigger, trouble is unavoidable. This is true for the company, the sect, and the country.
A maid whispered outside the door, "Miss Qi, there is a guest who wants to see you. Look..."
Bai Qingqian pulled herself out of her melancholy thoughts, "But there are business disputes?"
The servant girl shook her head, "There is no business. This man is very poor, and his eyes are very fierce. He has neither consignment of goods nor spiritual stones to buy, so he just barged in and said he needed some materials. They were very valuable. There were also many items on the cabinet.
I wonder, is it possible that someone is openly extorting money in broad daylight?
But he said, Miss, if you know we will..."
Bai Qingqian frowned. Businesses often encounter this kind of thing. They are just temporarily in dire straits and want to find a merchant to make a comeback. They usually use their reputation as a guarantee, and most of them can keep their promises.
Believe it or not, but a small number of them are just pure deception.
For things like this, it is not good to refuse directly, as it is easy to offend people; it is not good to just listen to gullibility, and it will test the master's discernment even if he has no assets to squander like this.
But she still kept a cautious eye on her, "Are they from the country of Yan?"
The servant girl shook her head, "No, we all know most of the monks from the country of Shan. They are all friends of the Marquis. They are generous and heroic. When have we ever given anything on credit?"
He doesn’t look like a Tongxuan realm, he looks like a hunter, and he’s carrying a big bow.”
Bai Qingqian sighed. When business is good, it is easy to get into trouble. Falling in the autumn wind is one of them. She has encountered this situation several times in recent times.
"Take him to the small living room and I'll meet him."
The servant girl asked Ai Ai, "Do you need to inform the youngest An?"
An Lao is a newly recruited spiritual monk of the Bai family. Because there is no hope of reaching the upper realm, he is very good at fighting. He is also a well-known figure in Mirage City. When the Bai family's business is good, it is natural to
Security has been strengthened, so this person was hired to solve similar troubles for a large sum of money.
After thinking about it, she decided to refuse, but finally gave up; she was no longer the fearless seventh lady when she first came to Mirage. She was now a member of the Qidong family, and she was also a person of high status in Mirage City. Maybe in the eyes of some people, she was
A big fat sheep.
She came to the small living room and made tea. She always liked to do these things by herself. Behind her was an old man with a white beard standing with his hands behind his back. He was the guest protector An Lao.
Not long after, a young monk walked into the small living room proudly, and Bai Qingqian finally understood why the people on the cabinet said that this man was vicious; even in her eyes, even though she was prepared, she was still attracted by the look in his eyes.
Captured by the bloody murderous intent that was so thick that it could not be dissolved, she could even feel Old An behind her gathering his aura.
No matter where this person comes from, there is no doubt that he is a murderer.
However, the first words this man spoke completely changed Bai Qingqian's mood. A very magical word,
"Sister-in-law, I am Fang Yazi from the country of Shan, and I am the junior brother of Senior Brother Hou."
Bai Qingqian suddenly felt that this young man had become pleasing to the eye?
The eyes are fierce? That’s a sign of majesty, right?
Bloody eyes? That means strong Qi and blood!
Of course she had heard about Fang Yazi, not from Hou Zi's mouth, but from the specific information about Hou Zi that Mr. Bai sent her from Jincheng. Among them, he specifically mentioned several of his friends in Yinling, especially that one. Fang Yazi, who was born as a hunter, is Hou Zi's closest junior brother.
Aren't you just good at big bows? Flawless!
Look, he can talk a lot, Bai Qing has a smile as bright as a flower, this brother is the best.
He waved his hand and signaled An Lao to step back. Since he was one of his own, many things became clear.
"Junior brother Yazi, you came suddenly, and I was not prepared. It just so happens that there is a treasure bow in the warehouse. Junior brother, you might as well give it a try later. It can be my sister-in-law's meeting gift."
This is not nonsense. Bai Ji has recently collected a treasured bow with five-color bow strings and twelve powerful treasure arrows. It can be regarded as one of the few ballast treasures in Baiji's shop. For this sister-in-law, it is worth it. .
Fang Yazi is still indifferent, this is his usual expression, it has never changed, but his tone is another matter,
"I just came back from outside the territory and practiced in Longyuan Daze for several years. Well, except for this life, everything else is gone.
I received a message from my senior brother in Jincheng. I heard that my senior brother made a pirate team here in Lizhihai and planned to play by himself? He asked me to come over and help, so I came in a hurry.
Senior brother left a letter saying that if you need anything, you can come here to withdraw it, and it will be deducted from his share of the stock..."
Bai Qingqian pretended to be angry and said: "What are you talking about? He is him and you are you. This is a meeting gift I gave you. What does it have to do with him? If you need anything in the future, regardless of the type, just come here to get it. If There isn't one here, I'll just go and search for it in the market. What's the big deal? Just don't say these kind words."
She is very smart and knows that although it is true that those sea sword cultivators are brothers in the same sect, their relationship is not that deep after all, and they are not as good as this junior brother Yazi, who is an old brother who has been hanging out with Hou Tzu since his Qi-entraining period. , this feeling cannot be replaced.
Fang Yazi nodded in agreement, "Actually, I don't need much, I just came in a hurry...I feel ashamed to trouble my sister-in-law."
Why is he called sister-in-law? This is really not nonsense. Hou Zi's letter said that he could pick up the things by himself at Baiji, but he didn't take it seriously at first; but after he came to Mirage, he couldn't find his fellow disciples, and he didn't know. Where is senior brother? The vast ocean is not something you can just wander into.
So I had no choice but to ask the local Shanguo Chamber of Commerce, and I heard some rumors from those workers. Of course, it was not just gossip. Duanmu and other people often instigated Hou Tzu to take in Bai family girls, so It was more natural for everyone to come.
Only then did Fang Yazi come up rashly and call her sister-in-law. One of them shouted in confusion, while the other got along with the situation and made mistakes. No one felt embarrassed.
Bai Qingqian tried her best, "Since I'm here to find your senior brother, don't go to the sea rashly; the Lizhi Sea is vast and there are thousands of named islands, not to mention those small islands and reefs, where you can stop. too much.
Your senior brother appeared on Zhudao a few years ago, but disappeared without a trace. Neither I nor the other Yanmen sword cultivators know where he went, so now he goes out to sea aimlessly.
Just stay here and wait for news. It could be within a month or a few months as soon as possible. Wait for your fellow Yanmen brothers to come ashore before making any comments. Maybe it will be faster?
I also happen to be more familiar with the situation in Lizhihai, which is still different from the mainland."
