The pair of top-quality imperial green pendants on Shangguan's middle finger are the best of the best, both in terms of water quality and color.
For such a small couple, it must be at least five million.
Moreover, for the same quality of jade, the larger it is, the more valuable it is.
Yang Xuan made a rough estimate based on what Shangguan Zhongzhi just described, but the round imperial jade of the same quality he mentioned was worth hundreds of millions!
In other words, Shangguan Zhongzhi walked around the streets carrying a bag worth at least one billion, but in the end he sold it for no more than two or three thousand.
What a waste of money!
"Shangguan, I have a few words that I want to say to Yang Xuan alone, is it okay?"
At this time, Xiao Ziyi suddenly spoke.
"Tch, I don't want to hear it yet."
Shangguan Zhongzhi turned his head to the side angrily.
Xiao Ziyi smiled, and then called Yang Xuan aside, "Yang Xuan, I have something to discuss with you. Don't be angry after hearing this."
"Well, you say."
Yang Xuandao.
Xiao Ziyi turned her head and glanced at the angry Shangguan Zhongzhi, and said, "I want to keep Shangguan in the Xiao family."
"But don't worry too much, I don't have that intention towards him."
"There are four reasons why I did this. First, even if I insisted on driving him away, I probably wouldn't be able to drive him away."
"Secondly, although he has superb skills, his mind is always too simple. If he is left alone, it will be bad if someone with ulterior motives takes advantage of him."
"Third, he has to survive. According to his mentality, if he is ignored and forced to do something desperate, he might just use the tricks of Jianghu World and start robbing directly. That would be a big problem."
"Fourth, letting him stay in our Xiao family can be regarded as giving our Xiao family an extra barrier, what do you think?"
Yang Xuan pondered for a while, nodded and said, "That's fine, but you have to promise me one thing."
Xiao Ziyi smiled and said, "Well, I promise you, don't worry, I only have you in my heart."
"That's pretty much it."
Yang Xuan nodded with satisfaction. He had fully accepted the fact that Xiao Ziyi was his concubine, and he did not want to escape from this convenience.
When Shangguan Zhongzhi learned that Xiao Ziyi was going to take him home, he was so happy that he danced on the street, just like a child.
"Brother Zhongzhi, I want to ask you something."
Yang Xuan had a question that he had to check with Shangguan Zhongzhi, "You were staying well there, why did you suddenly come here."
Yang Xuan is referring to why Shangguan Zhongzhi came from the world of Jianghu to the ordinary world.
Although this situation is not uncommon, many people in the Jianghu world are greedy for gold and paper in the ordinary world, and will choose to come to the ordinary world.
Maybe there are other reasons, but in short, people who come from the Jianghu world to the ordinary world must have their own motives.
Yang Xuan looked at Shangguan Zhongzhi's innocent look. He didn't even have any idea about money. He definitely didn't come here because he was greedy for money in the ordinary world.
And he couldn't just come here out of nowhere, there must be a reason for it.
Shangguan Zhongzhi answered truthfully, "It was my master who kicked me out. He said that I still had some unfinished business in the ordinary world. He asked me to finish these things here and then go back."
Yang Xuan asked curiously, "What is it?"
Shangguan Zhongzhi shook his head in confusion and said, "I asked Master, but Master didn't tell me. He just told me to wait for an opportunity. When the opportunity comes, I will know what it is."
"Is it so mysterious?"
Yang Xuan gently rubbed his temples and stopped asking. He was not afraid of anything, the only thing he was afraid of was trouble.
That night Shangguan Zhongzhi entered Xiao's house as Xiao Ziyi's follower.
Because Xiao Ziyi had greeted Shangguan Zhongzhi and told him not to expose his abilities and origins unless he had to.
So in the eyes of the Xiao family, this is just a clean and careful boy that Xiao Ziyi found outside to work as her follower.
Moreover, in a wealthy family like the Xiao family, almost everyone in the family has an entourage, which is not a rare thing, so Shangguan's middle finger did not cause much thought.
Yang Xuan originally planned to stay a few more days, but the calls from Long Xiaoman and Zhou Ahu were like urging him to leave, so he had no choice but to book a flight for the next morning.
There were very few opportunities for the two of them to meet each other, so they definitely couldn't bear to sleep that night.
As a result, on the way to take Yang Xuan to the airport the next day, Xiao Ziyi felt that her legs were so soft that it was difficult to even step on the accelerator.
Yang Xuan returned to Nanjiang and rushed towards Longtang without any delay as soon as the plane landed.
"Brother Yang!"
Zhou Ahu, Long Xiaoman, and Weasel who were waiting in the conference room saw Yang Xuan come in and quickly stood up to say hello.
"Everyone, please sit down and see how the situation is."
Yang Xuan raised his hand and motioned for everyone to sit down and talk.
Long Xiaoman said, "Xie Wenxi sent a piece of information, saying that Xiang Wentian suddenly issued an order to the four assassins sent out. No matter what the cost or the risk, Crazy Zhao must not be allowed to survive until nightfall."
.”
"This information is too sudden. If it is true, then our time now is simply not enough."
Zhou Ahu gritted his teeth and said, "Xiang Wentian has always been prudent in doing things. Why did he suddenly issue such an order this time? It's not his style at all. Did he see something?"
"But that's not right. Our plan is top secret. Everyone involved in this plan deserves absolute trust and shouldn't let the news leak out."
Everyone was confused as to why Xiang Wentian suddenly issued such an urgent order. This was completely different from his previous behavior.
The only explanation is that the plan of Yang Xuan and others has been exposed, so Xiang Wentian was so anxious that he did not give Yang Xuan sufficient time to implement the second step of the plan.
But the biggest doubt is that Zhou Ahu and Long Xiaoman have rechecked this matter many times, and can't find any clues at all. Every link is perfect, and there is absolutely no possibility of anything going wrong.
Moreover, the people involved in this operation are all confidants who can be absolutely trusted, and it is impossible for anyone to deliberately leak the information.
So this matter suddenly became complicated and confusing.
After hearing this, Yang Xuan also fell into deep thought, and really couldn't figure out what went wrong.
"Hehe, hehe."
At this time, the weasel next to him suddenly sneered twice.
"Old Huang, what are you laughing at? What time has it been!"
Zhou Ahu frowned.
"hehe."
The Weasel acted like a worldly expert, continued to sneer twice, gently touched his chin, squinted his eyes, and said softly, "Well, you are all going astray."
"Do you know why the problem can't be found?"
Zhou Ahu said with a dark face, "If you have any fucking farts, hurry up. If you try to act cool again, be careful and I'll kick you!"
What bothers him the most is the weasel showing off.
"Brother Hu, don't be anxious. There are some things that you can't rush. I need to explain them carefully."
Weasel's voice was cottony and soft, and he didn't know where he learned the idiom "娓娓道来" from.
"That's it, the problem does not lie with Xiang Wentian at all, so no matter how we check, of course we can't find any clues."
