Zhan You was sitting on the chair above with a calm look on his face. After a moment of calm, the stimulation he received had improved a lot.
After calming down, he thought a lot, and Zhan Ding found out through channels that there was trace of the Scar Mercenary Group behind the rumor.
Although there is no evidence, if you can find some tails of the Scar mercenary group, you can be sure that this rumor is closely related to his daughter.
He suddenly discovered that his daughter had grown up and had her own agenda, and even colluded with Ximen Hao and others to use such shameless methods!
It seemed that I still didn't quite understand my daughter, so I couldn't help but feel a little guilty, but mostly angry.
Because there is already a prairie above my head.
"Master, the young lady and her son-in-law are here."
Zhan Ding stood at the door to report, followed by Ximen Hao and Zhan Linghua.
"Come in."
Zhan You picked up the tea cup and took a sip. In fact, he was actually thinking about how to speak for a while. After all, Ximen Hao had an unusual relationship with the city lord.
Zhan Linghua and Ximen Hao entered the house at the same time, while Zhan Ding closed the door from the outside and stood guard outside.
"I met my father (father-in-law)"
They both saluted at the same time.
"Sit down."
Zhanyou pointed to the chair.
The two of them sat down. There was no maid or maid to bring tea or water, they just sat there dryly.
"Xiaohua, my father has found out some clues about that rumor. Don't you want to say something?"
Zhan You got straight to the point, he didn't have to hide his daughter.
Zhan Linghua's pretty face changed and she quickly stood up:
"Father, it's..."
"Father-in-law! I know who it is!"
Ximen Hao suddenly stood up. This kind of thing must not be admitted. Even if the other party finds out, he cannot admit it. He must go to pieces.
"Oh? My dear son-in-law, tell me, who is he?"
Zhan You raised his eyebrows, wanting to hear how this cheap son-in-law would explain.
Ximen Hao touched Zhan Linghua, then saluted:
"My father-in-law, it's already obvious that this is something the Hong family has spread! Regardless of whether it's true or not, this is absolutely disgusting!"
"Hmm? Hong family? Do you have evidence?"
Zhan You frowned, does Ximen Hao really want to mess around?
"Haha, to be honest with my father-in-law, my son-in-law has actually been investigating this matter these days. After all, it is related to the Zhan family. I found that the people of the Hong family are closely related to some mercenary groups in the city. Not only them
, as well as some other mercenary groups, as well as some gangsters from Su Di City."
Ximen Hao directly threw the blame on the Hong family, and even threw out the mercenary group and other gangsters.
This rumor was spread by An Erla secretly by some mercenary groups and gangsters. It can be considered half true and half false.
When Zhan You heard what Ximen Hao said, he couldn't help but believe it.
Because the information Zhan Ding received was not completely accurate, mainly because the whereabouts of spreading rumors were too secretive.
Although there were traces of the Scar Mercenary Group, there were also other mercenary groups. The reason why he suspected the Scar Mercenary Group was because the Scar Mercenary Group was traveling with Zhan Linghua this time.
"Father, it's like this. It must be from the Hong family! They didn't get the order from us for Gale Island this time, so they used this dirty method."
Zhan Linghua instantly entered the role, looking filled with righteous indignation.
"Oh! Father-in-law! This time, the eldest lady... you really stole the chicken but lost the rice. You always lost your wife and lost the army!"
Ximen Hao's words were so heartbreaking that Zhanyou felt like vomiting blood.
However, Zhan You had nothing to do. Although the other party was his son-in-law, there was a city lord behind him!
Moreover, what the other party said seemed to make sense.
"Bang!"
Zhan You slapped the table and said viciously:
"Hu Shishi! You hurt my daughter and ruined my reputation. You really make me angry!"
Ximen Hao raised the corner of his mouth and winked at Zhan Linghua.
Zhan Linghua couldn't bear it. After all, he was her father. She felt a little ashamed for destroying the other person's soul like this.
But when I think about how I have lived these years, and how Hu has tried to kill me again and again, I become cruel.
As long as we can get rid of the Hu family, we will redouble our filial piety!
"Father, don't be angry. The most important thing now is to resolve this rumor and meet with the Hong family."
Zhan Linghua certainly didn't want the other party to always struggle with this issue, as that would make her feel even more guilty.
"Well, that's why I called you here. The Hong family has just sent someone to send news that we will meet at Zuiyue Tower at this time tomorrow. It seems that they are also anxious. After all, the city lord has come forward."
Zhan You said and looked at Ximen Hao.
Ximen Hao pretended not to see it, but frowned and said:
"My father-in-law, what are you going to do? No matter whether the eldest lady has...that you, after all, it is a fact that you colluded with the Hong family. I hope you can handle it fairly."
Zhan You's eyebrows twitched, this Ximen Hao is asking for conditions for his daughter!
Well, anyway, it was time for Zhan Linghua to take over the family affairs. With this reason, she could arrange some things for the other party. Hu did not dare to say anything at this time.
In any case, Zhan Linghua is his daughter, and since her mother is dead, she has long severed ties with the Spiritual Clan.
And with the Fox clan behind the Hu family, the son and daughter are no longer so pure.
"Well... let's see. Your eldest brother has been managing the shops of the family head's line over the years. Without your aunt's help, not only would there be no profit, but there would even be losses. In this way, from now on, the thirty shops of the family in Su Di City will be managed.
It's up to you to manage it. Let your eldest brother manage some workshops for your second sister."
Zhan You finally decided to be ruthless. The thirty shops were not shops in the slums, but were located in places other than the slums in Sudi City, involving various industries!
"What? Give it all to me?"
Zhan Linghua was so shocked that she couldn't open her mouth from ear to ear. The two major industries of Zhan's family were the buying and selling trade and the other was shops!
Of course, there cannot be only these thirty exhibitors, there are still many in the hands of my uncle's lineage and some side branches.
These thirty families can be said to belong to the lineage of the family head.
"Thank you father-in-law for trusting Ling Hua. My son-in-law will definitely help you with all his heart!"
Ximen Hao quickly stood up and agreed for Zhan Linghua.
Thirty shops! That was a huge amount of sacred stones that year! I wasn’t good at it, but there was Ji Wubing! This monster was my super manager!
"Thank you father, my daughter will definitely live up to her father's expectations!"
Zhan Linghua reacted and quickly saluted.
Zhan You glanced sideways at Ximen Hao. This guy was more anxious than his daughter. Sure enough, he was the one who had the idea behind his back.
"Well, after tomorrow, I will issue a notice. But Xiaohua, don't act recklessly. Although your eldest brother manages ordinary shops, he still provides a lot of sacred stones to the family every year."
"Yes, father, don't worry, your daughter will do her best!"
