Xia Yan asked Bai Rui and the other four, and Xia Feilong immediately remembered.
At that time, these four people came from Hua Qingcheng with Xia Yan's letters, so Xia Feilong was very polite to the four of them. In the letter, Xia Yan mentioned the purpose of these four people coming to Xia's house.
Therefore, Xia Feilong arranged for these four people to live in Fangshi, North District, to help manage Fangshi, and also specially prepared a yard in the city for the four people to live.
After hearing Xia Yan's question, Xia Feilong hurriedly said, "These four people should be at our Xiajiafang City management office now. Xia Yan, should I ask someone to invite them over?"
"No need, I'll go find them soon. They are my very good friends." Xia Yan shook his head and said.
"Grandpa Third, I'm going to see my friends first, and I'll have a few drinks with you in the evening." Xia Yan looked at Xia Changhe and said with a smile.
Xia Changhe immediately nodded and said, "Okay, come find me tonight."
"Clan leader, then you should put all these pills away. I will not get involved in the specific details of the reward plan. You can discuss it with the elders." Xia Yan bent down, picked up the package, and handed it to the clan leader Xia Feilong.
"good."
Xia Feilong responded.
"By the way, Xia Yan, among your friends, there is one named Bai Hua. This person has very outstanding management skills." Xia Feilong suddenly said, "Our Xiajiafang City can survive to this day, and his contribution is very important."
big."
If the Xia family's current situation was not in danger, Xia Feilong intended to let Bai Hua serve as the mayor of the city, and let him take care of everything in the city. During this period, the Xia family was in great danger, so Xia Feilong had no intention of promoting Xiang Baihua's position.
"Oh?" Xia Yan was a little surprised when he heard this.
He knew that Bai Hua was thoughtful and very steady. However, Xia Yan didn't know about his business acumen. Bai Hua and others were all mercenaries, so he never expected Bai Hua to have such a talent.
If this is the case, then Bai Hua's arrival can be regarded as a great gain for the Xia family.
"The patriarch is right, that Bai Hua is indeed very capable." The great elder Xia Lai couldn't help but say.
Xia Lai has always felt ashamed in his heart. Now, he also really wants to get closer to Xia Yan, but he is worried that Xia Yan will hate him in his heart.
"Well, since Bai Hua has this ability, let him manage Xiajiafang City. Bai Hua is a trustworthy person, the clan leader, and all the elders, you can rest assured of him." Xia Yan said.
………
In Xiajiafang City, it only took Xia Yan and the two of them a cup of tea to get from the Xia family residence to North District Fang City.
Xia Yan took Xiaoqing and Tugou to the market together.
As soon as he entered Fangshi, Xia Yan felt an aura of depression. Nowadays, Fangshi is deserted and deserted. Many shops are closed and there are very few pedestrians on the streets.
Most of the things that can still be opened now are retail of daily necessities and small food-related shops.
You can see the Fang City Management Office just a street ahead and turn right.
"Brother Xia Yan, why did the market become like this?" Xiao Qing looked around, then looked at Xia Yan. In the past, when she was in Yushui City, she would also come to Xiajiafang Market to buy items.
The current market is very different from before.
"It's okay, it will prosper again soon." Xia Yan smiled and said nonchalantly.
"Yeah!" Xiaoqing nodded.
She believed everything Xia Yan said. Xia Yan said it would prosper soon, so it would definitely prosper soon.
"Ouch..."
The native dog followed the two men, jumping up and down. Suddenly it saw a female dog not far away. It recognized the female dog. The native dog had fought with other dogs because of this female dog.
Recalling the scene at that time, the native dog opened his mouth and laughed proudly.
When they reached the corner, the two of them turned the corner and saw the small building of the Fang City Management Office.
Some city guards are patrolling outside.
When the Fangshi Guard Captain saw Xia Yan approaching, he quickly came over to greet him.
After saying hello, Xia Yan entered the Fang City Management Office and soon met Bai Hua and Bai Rui.
Bai Hua was slightly surprised when she saw Xia Yan, and immediately stood up and welcomed Xia Yan in.
"Xia Yan, when did you return to Yushui City?" Bai Rui stared at Xiaoqing with beautiful eyes, and asked Xia Yan.
Xia Yan said, "I went to Yushui City yesterday and dealt with some things this morning, and now I have time to come see you. Haha, how do you feel here?"
"By the way, Zhang Long and Zhao Meng, aren't Zhao Meng here?" Xia Yan only saw Bai Hua and Bai Rui here, so he asked.
"I asked the two of them to go to Huaqing City to buy some goods. They have been there for two days now, and I don't know if they have gained anything." Bai Hua said with a slight frown.
"Haha, with Zhang Long's temperament, how can he negotiate business with others? Zhao Meng, let alone talk." Xia Yan shook his head and smiled.
Bai Rui immediately rolled her eyes and said, "Xia Yan, don't underestimate Zhang Long and Zhao Meng. They are very powerful together. In the past two months, the two of them have purchased a lot of goods from outside.
"
"Really?" Xia Yan said in surprise.
In Xia Yan's opinion, the two of them are not suitable for doing business at all. But Bai Rui said that the two of them are not very capable together.
Bai Hua smiled and said, "Bai Rui is right, the two of them are a perfect match. Zhang Long has a straightforward personality, which is easy for those businessmen to accept, but Zhao Meng has secret thoughts. When he is aside, Zhang Long will not
Will be fooled."
"Well, that's good." Xia Yan naturally believed it when Bai Hua said the same thing.
"Bai Hua, Bai Rui, it's almost time to eat. Let's go have dinner together." Xia Yan said with a smile.
"Okay!" Bai Rui immediately jumped up and said, "But please introduce me first!"
Bai Hua looked at Xiao Qing next to Xia Yan.
"Oh..." Xia Yan felt embarrassed, "This is Xiao Qing."
"Xiao Qing, this is Bai Hua, and this is Bai Rui. I have been to the Sin Forest before, and I met them all in the Sin Forest." Xia Yan said to Xiao Qing again.
"Hello!" Xiaoqing said with a slight salute to the two people.
"Hello Xiaoqing." Bai Hua also said.
"Sister Xiaoqing, you are so beautiful..."
Bai Rui immediately grabbed Xiao Qing and started talking. Bai Rui was also straight-tempered and could not hide what she said.
Jufu Tower!
In front of the Wang family's Jufulou Tower, there are four people and a dog.
"The business at Jufulou has always been good." Xia Yan stood outside and said with emotion.
"Jufulou Tower should be the property of the Wang family in Yushui City. A few months ago, the Wang family teamed up with the Xi family to deal with the Xia family. A few days ago, for some unknown reason, the Wang family suddenly changed their attitude."
Bai Hua's struggle against Yushui City is also very clear.
"There are still smart people in the Wang family!" Xia Yan said with the corner of his mouth raised. He was referring to Wang Yuyan. If Wang Yuyan hadn't said those words to him in advance, then this time, the Wang family would have to be purged.
With Zhou Yun Trading Company joining, Xia Yan feels that it won't take much time for the structure of Yushui City to be reshuffled. By then, the Xia family will be the dominant one in Yushui City, and the Wang family will be affiliated with the Xia family.
"Let's go in!" Xia Yan waved his hand and walked over first.
There are still four waiters in front of the Jufulou Tower. The rules of the Jufulou Tower have not changed. Guests entering the Jufulou Tower need to remove their swords.
Of course, when Xia Yan came here, no one dared to ask him to remove his sword.
He took Bai Hua, Bai Rui, and Xiao Qing to the private room on the third floor. The manager of the restaurant came to receive Xia Yan and the four of them in person, with a friendly smile on his face.
"Lord Master, distinguished gentlemen, welcome to our Jufu Tower. May I ask if you need anything?" the manager said warmly, behind him were two waiters holding menus.
If there is a local dog here, it is natural to order a lot of food.
After eating for a full hour, the four of them got up and left the restaurant.
"Xia Yan, there's something I think it's time to tell you."
In the evening, Xia Yan came to the courtyard where Xia Changhe lived. Xia Changhe brought Xia Yan into the room, his face a little solemn.
"Um?"
Xia Yan was slightly startled.
"Xia Yan, your mother gave me a letter before she died." Xia Changhe looked at Xia Yan and said solemnly, "The person your mother trusted the most at that time was me, so she gave the letter to me.
.”
"She said at that time, if you can become a strong person in the future, then I will give this letter to you. If you are not strong enough, then I will never let you read this letter. Now you, I
I think you already have enough strength." Xia Changhe took a breath and his eyes flashed.
"What? Letter?"
Xia Yan's heart surged with a raging tide.
My mother has been dead for so many years, and now the third grandfather actually says that my mother left a letter back then.
This incident was too sudden for Xia Yan, and he was not prepared at all. For a long time, Xia Yan did not speak.
Xia Changhe was silent for a while.
"Xia Yan, wait a moment, I'll take it out. I haven't opened this letter, so I don't know what's inside." Xia Changhe said, walked to the wall and opened a hidden compartment.
Xia Yan looked at Xia Changhe's movements, his face expressionless, but his body was trembling slightly.
"My mother left a letter and said that I had enough strength to read it. What kind of content is in this letter?" Similar thoughts flashed through Xia Yan's heart over and over again.
"My mother is from the Dark Night Continent. My father met my mother in the Sin Forest back then. So what exactly happened that year?" Xia Yan had this idea swirling in his mind. "Why did my mother enter the Sin Forest back then? My father was still there at that time.
If you are not a spiritual master, you cannot go too deep into the Sinful Forest. The mother probably traveled through most of the Sinful Forest before meeting your father."
"Chachacha~"
Xia Changhe held a somewhat yellowed letter in his hand and walked to Xia Yan. There was only one name on the envelope, and it was in another language.
