Jin Ya turned around and saluted, "Master Li, there is some misunderstanding at home, please worry about it... I will accept the gift from Your Excellency, please wait a moment."
She took the jade box with both hands and handed it to Jin Fan, "Uncle, I've been summoned by our guest. I'm afraid I won't be able to attend today's birthday party. I'd like you to hand over the gift and say sorry to grandpa for me."
"Okay, niece Xian just goes, your grandpa won't blame her!" Jin Fan said with a smile on his face, "Go quickly, don't keep your guest waiting for a long time."
Jin Ya nodded, turned around and came to Li Shitong, "Master Li, let's go."
Li Shitong smiled and nodded, "The carriage is waiting outside, Miss Jin Ya, please."
The two of them boarded the car and left, but the atmosphere in the Jin family was still strangely quiet. ??
Jin Fan suddenly laughed, his face full of pride, "I have watched Jin Ya grow up since I was a child, and I have long known that she is the golden phoenix of my Jin family, and she will be successful in the future, and it has come true today!"
Everyone...
Lao Jin, you are so shameless!
Face? What is it? It’s edible!
There was silence on the carriage.
Li Shitong looked at his nose and heart, and did not look at anything inappropriate. If he were not worried about offending, he would have closed his eyes.
In fact, the beautiful lady opposite was too heart-wrenching.
Jin Ya was worried. She had acted calmly and showed off her general style, but in fact, she was just as nervous as everyone else. Really, who is the guest of honor on the New Year's Eve? She really didn't know him!
Letting Jin Sheng and Jin Tan go, and gently exposing the matter, was just in case - maybe there was a mistake?
When the carriage stopped, the Crystal River arrived.
An exquisitely painted boat was parked on the shore. Li Shitong got out of the car first, smiled and handed over his hand, "Miss Jin Ya, your guest is waiting for you on the boat. I will only send it here."
Jin Ya was extremely nervous, glanced at the boat, gritted her teeth and walked up.
The boat left and rowed towards the river. The maid stepped forward respectfully and said, "Miss, our guest is on the second floor. Please come with me."
"Dear guest, Miss Jin is here." The maid knocked carefully on the door, lowered her head and took a few steps back, then turned and left.
Jin Ya took a deep breath, opened the door and saw a man standing by the window, seemingly looking at the scene on both sides of the river. He was wearing a large black robe covering his whole body, making it difficult to see clearly.
"Jin Ya from the Jin family, please pay homage to Your Excellency, Your Excellency!" After all, she was no ordinary woman. She calmed down at this time and entered the room to salute respectfully.
"Sit down." A hoarse voice came from under the black robe.
Jin Ya's heart started to beat again, and she felt that the eyes under the black robe were unfathomable, so she unconsciously obeyed the order and sat down.
As clever as a little white rabbit.
Hmm...a plump little white rabbit...
"Jin Ya, you must be confused. We have never met each other, so why should I help you?" Heipao's voice paused slightly, then chuckled, "The order of the clan. , I am ranked third, Xiaojin, you can call me Third Master."
Jin Ya raised her head suddenly, her eyes widened, "Ah..." Looking at the familiar black robe and this obvious reminder, she still didn't understand.
"You are the Fourth Master's..."
"He is my junior brother." The man in black robe sat down and knocked on the table, "I received a message from the fourth child. I know that you helped him, Xiao Jin, when you were in Jiangning. I accidentally found that you were facing a dilemma. With a little help, I helped him.
Let Xiao Li take a trip."
The truth is revealed!
Jin Ya stood up in a hurry, her face full of gratitude, "Thank you, Third Master, for helping me. I just did some small things for Fourth Master, it's not worth mentioning."
The black robe waved his hand, "It's natural that you should repay favors from others, but today I invite you, Xiao Jin, and I have something else to ask for your help."
"Please give me your instructions, Third Master."
The black robe said lightly, "I heard that your Jin family has a complete piece of hobgoblin essence. I have been making elixirs recently and need this item as an auxiliary material. Previously, Xiao Li got too little from the golden tripod auction. Please send me a message to ask the Jin family.
Are you willing to part with your love and sell it to me? Don’t worry about the price. The Alchemist Association will pay for this transaction and the Jin family will not suffer any loss."
Deep in Jin Ya's heart, she breathed a sigh of relief.
In Jiangning, the fourth master had saved her once before, and even if he had some favors, they had all been used up long ago. This time, the third master came to help her. It is only normal for him to have such an inside story!
Her thoughts turned quickly and she took a deep breath, "Please rest assured, Third Master, I will return home to see Grandpa and do my best to promote this matter. You will not be disappointed."
Only when things are done well will there be kindness. Jinya, who has experienced today's scenery and seizes the opportunity again, will definitely not want to miss it!
The black robe nodded with satisfaction, "If there is a result, please contact Xiao Li, I will wait for good news."
Jin Ya saluted, stood up and said, "Then I won't disturb you anymore and I'll take my leave."
The black robe paused and chuckled, "Seeing as it's getting late, Xiao Jin, why don't you stay on the boat and have dinner with me before leaving."
Jin Ya's expression froze slightly, and she forced out a smile, "This... I'd better go back early and do things for Third Master."
"That's alright, then go ahead."
Jin Ya left in a hurry as if she had been granted amnesty.
When the boat docked, I watched her leave the boat, her panicked back, and a proud laugh coming from under the black robe on the second floor!
Xiaojin, I asked you to play this trick with me back then, to repay the other person with his own way. Isn't it good?
On the shore, Li Shitong vaguely heard the laughter coming from the boat, and his regard for Jin Ya suddenly increased.
There is something about this person who pleases the guest so much!
It's just that this time... well, it seems too short, right?
Master Li was hesitant. He had obtained an excellent secret recipe for rejuvenation in his early years, and after several small trials, the results were satisfactory.
Are you looking for an opportunity to contribute something to your distinguished guest?
The Jin family's birthday banquet finally came to an end. Mr. Jin, who had not been seen in public for a long time, frequently raised glasses at the banquet, which showed that he was in a good mood.
At the same time, the news about the relationship between the Jin family and the fourth-rank guest minister of the Alchemist Association spread throughout the imperial capital in the shortest time, so when the sky darkened, the Jin family actually received several more birthday gifts.
Although they are only sent by retainers, butlers, etc., the owner of each gift is a powerful person who stands at the top of the imperial capital at a level beyond the reach of the Jin family in the past.
Soon, the Jin family held a secret meeting of the highest level.
Mr. Jin was in high spirits and looked around at everyone, "Jin Ya, tell them what happened."
"Yes, Grandpa!" Jin Ya saluted respectfully, stood up and said, "Uncles, I do have an old relationship with Your Excellency Yuanxi Guest, but in the final analysis, this friendship still starts with Jiangning."
Of course Jin Ya would do something like taking advantage of the situation. It was expected that Mr. San would not argue with her if he was such a person.
Of course, the prerequisite is that the old man's instructions must be fulfilled.
So next, from Jin Ya's mouth, the top brass of the Jin family learned about a secret and powerful sect - they sorted it by simple numbers. Now exposed, there is the mysterious Fourth Master in Jiangning City, a
At least a fourth-grade alchemy master, and the Yuanxi Guest Minister in the Imperial Alchemist Association, ranking third in the sect.
"The Third Master is the great guest of the Alchemist Association, and his strength is beyond doubt. The Fourth Master's strength was witnessed by Uncle Jiu with his own eyes, and he can prove it to me."
Uncle Jiu nodded solemnly and said in a deep voice, "Fourth Master is indeed a high-level alchemist. His cultivation level is even deeper and unpredictable. I believe that in front of him, I will never be able to withstand three moves." Someone who can see his hidden dangers at a glance,
Even if you think about your knees, you must be extremely powerful!
Jin Ya nodded calmly and said in a solemn tone, "Grandpa, uncles, please pray, this may be an unprecedented opportunity for our Jin family!"
"Think about it, the two of this mysterious sect are both high-level alchemists, so do they have other sects? There is a high probability! If we think higher and bigger, the third master, the fourth master and their elders
, do they still exist in the world? I even suspect that the sect they belong to is the legendary immortal sect that is unreachable and superior!"
In the secret room, the breathing of everyone in the Jin family suddenly became heavy.
Immortal Sect!
Qingyang country has imperial martial arts, and the immortal way is extinct.
But this does not prevent them from hearing various legends about the path to immortality from legends and anecdotes.
Calling for wind and rain, sowing beans into soldiers, and sustaining life Machine, the ability to see for a long time.
If the Jin family can cling to an immortal sect, do they still need to live so cautiously? Judging from the faces of the powerful people in the imperial capital, they may suddenly become the top powerful family in Qingyang Kingdom!
Mr. Jin said in a deep voice, "Today, Jin Ya brought back a piece of news. The Third Master needs the Great Goblin Yuan to make alchemy, and he formally proposed a deal to the Jin family."
His eyes were sharp and he said loudly, "I will make an exception in this transaction, that's right! Do you have any opinions?"
Everyone shook their heads.
Nonsense, it would be foolish to miss such a great opportunity.
The Great Goblin Yuan is indeed precious, but you will get something if you pay. This is a very simple truth.
"Okay, then it's decided!" Mr. Jin made a final decision, paused briefly, and then said in a deep voice, "Since I want to give a favor, I will give it to you to the end. Jin Ya, please tell the third master, the Yuan Jin family of the Great Goblin will not take any money from the gift, and in the future
If you need anything, the Jin family is willing to help!"
Everyone's eyes widened. A whole portion of the Hobgoblin Yuan would cost at least one million gold.
Just give it away if you say so, the old man is really domineering!
Jin Ya was overjoyed and said hurriedly, "Grandpa is wise, so what's the big deal if we lose him for a while? If we can make friends with each other, the Jin family will benefit immensely!"
"Well, Jin Ya, you did a good job today. I have cultivated you all these years!" Mr. Jin looked around at everyone with soft eyes. "From now on, all the authority of Jin Ya will be restored. The Jinding headquarters in the imperial capital will also be given full authority to her.
As a manager, you have the right to allocate and handle personnel, property, etc.!"
Everyone claimed that it was, sighing in their hearts that this girl finally turned over.
Now, many people are going to be in trouble!
"Thank you, grandpa. My granddaughter will do her best and live up to your expectations!" Jin Ya said loudly, her eyes as bright as flowers.
She was filled with joy and excitement, but at this moment, the figure of Luo Guan appeared in her mind.
Because Jin Ya knew very well that in the final analysis, all this was due to that young man, "You brat, where did you go? My sister misses you so much!"
…
After sneezing several times, Luo Guan in the courtyard looked wary, secretly thinking who was talking nonsense behind his back, if I catch him I will not let him go easily!
Immediately, he received a message from Li Shitong. After reading it, he smiled and said, "Teacher, it's done!"
His hard work is not in vain. Once he gets the complete Great Goblin Yuan, he can achieve the strongest Thousand Mountains Realm with the help of the Black Turtle.
Needless to say, his strength has skyrocketed, and more importantly, Luo Guan can continue to practice! He has had enough of this feeling of being soaked in spiritual mist and having to be careful even when breathing.
Practice, I want to practice!
After replying to Li Shitong, Luo Guan put on his black robe, opened the door and went out.
