Chapter 899

Mittel Chamber of Commerce, Zhongzhou Branch.

Mittel Tengshan, the patriarch of the Mittel family, sat leisurely on the sofa, shaking the wine glass in his hand very comfortably, with a comfortable look on his face, while Hai Bodong was lying on the sofa opposite him, chewing an apple as usual.

"It's really unimaginable that I can have the opportunity to bring the Mittel family's industry to Zhongzhou in this life, tut tut tut~~~"

Tengshan smacked his lips with admiration. He used to rely on his identity as a businessman to become the top of the Jiama Empire in the northwest continent. In his heart, it was the highlight of his life. He never expected that he could jump directly to Zhongzhou to gain a foothold in just over a decade. Tengshan didn't even dare to do this in his daydreams.

"Hai Bodong, thanks to you and Ya Fei, the Miter family has achieved this success. This life is worth it. You two have such a good vision, right?"

There is no doubt that Miter's current development is certainly due to Ya Fei's business talent, but more importantly, it is Hai Bodong and Ya Fei's firm support for Xiao Yan that has made such a success. Teng Shan could never imagine that the upright foolish boy could have the current status.

"Hmph, it's okay."

Compared to Teng Shan's sigh, Hai Bodong was chewing the apple indifferently, and didn't take Teng Shan's words to heart at all.

Before, Hai Bodong had been helping Xiao Yan as a mediator of the Tianhe League, but the past two years were too peaceful. There was basically no time for him to appear. Even Yao Tianhuo and Xiao Xuan made an appointment to travel around the continent. Hai Bodong was a little anxious every day. Today, he was really bored and ran to the Miter family's branch in Zhongzhou to chat with Teng Shan. As a result, Teng Shan has been sighing so much that Hai Bodong was too lazy to respond.

"If you have time to sigh about that kid, you might as well find a way to restore my original body. Do you really want me to live my whole life in a tiny appearance?"

"Isn't this cute?"

"Get out of here!"

Hearing Tengshan's muttering, Haibodong angrily smashed the apple directly on Tengshan's head. Of course, he restrained his strength, otherwise, with the difference in strength between the two, Tengshan would not only have a big bump on his forehead, but his head would have exploded.

Tengshan rubbed his forehead speechlessly, and was about to say something when a hearty laugh suddenly sounded outside the door.

"Hahahaha! Haibodong, just accept your fate, this is how your life will be~"

As the voice came in, the door of the office was pushed open, and an old man with an upright figure appeared in the sight of the two, causing Haibodong to frown slightly.

Jiama Empire, Jia Xingtian

"No? Forget about Tengshan, why did you come here? Doesn't the Gama Empire care?"

"It's okay, it's all handed over to old General Nalan. He's been retired for so many years, and he's been living a carefree life these years. It's time for an old man like me to take over."

Hearing Jia Xingtian's words, Hai Bodong was slightly stunned.

"Huh? Nalan Jie takes over? Shouldn't it be Xiao Ji?"

Hai Bodong knew that when Yao Ye was still in the Black Horn Region, Jia Xingtian could still expect Yao Ye to take over his job. However, when he learned that Yao Ye followed Xiao Yan to Zhongzhou, he completely gave up the idea. Judging from the situation, this girl probably won't go back, and then every day he racked his brains to give the position to Xiao Ji.

His brother has such strength and status. It's just a matter of a word whether he wants to rule the Gama Empire. Why do you have to hold the title of the Lord of the Gama Empire? It's better to do a favor, and you can be happy and free.

Unfortunately, Xiao Jing didn't really want this favor. Although he was capable enough, Xiao Jing never wanted to be a leader.

At this moment, a beautiful figure stood out from behind Jia Xingtian and bowed to Hai Bodong.

"Senior Hai Bodong, long time no see."

This woman was none other than Xiao Yan's elder sister, Xiao Jing, the national teacher of the Jia Ma Empire, which surprised Hai Bodong.

"You came with me too?"

"Well, Yan'er hasn't been back to his hometown in the past few years, so I came to see him on behalf of my father." Xiao Jing glanced at Jia Xingtian, "In addition, I came to supervise Jia Lao to prevent him from not going back after he comes."

"."

Jia Xingtian's face, which was good just now, suddenly wilted, and he stared at Xiao Jing with resentment.

As the national teacher, Xiao Jing's suppression of Jia Xingtian became stronger and stronger. Even Yao Ye and Yao Yue had never managed Jia Xingtian like this.

"Hahaha~ Have fun here for two days and then go back to work. You will stay in that position for the rest of your life. Don't even think about running away." Hai Bodong laughed at Jia Xingtian wantonly, and then he lay on the sofa and looked up at his back, "And you, come here, openly, why are you hiding behind me?"

"I just wanted to scare you, but it seems I didn't succeed."

The person who said this was Yunshan, the old leader of Yunlan Sect, or the current leader. After all, since following Xiao Yan to Zhongzhou, Yun Yun, the leader, has basically resigned. Yunlan Sect is fully managed by Yunshan, and Jia Xingtian is also a brother in distress. It is really sad that two old people cannot step down.

"Yun Yun is really heartless. She didn't say she would come back to see me in the past few years. I came here to relax this time and question her by the way."

Yunshan said this and sat on the sofa. Jia Xingtian also sat opposite him, and Xiao Yu stood aside.

Leaning on the sofa, Jia Xingtian looked at the scenery outside the window, his expression full of emotion.

"It's really unpredictable. We can actually have the opportunity to gather in Zhongzhou in this life. Xiao Yan is really amazing."

"Alright, alright! I'm almost sick of hearing your sighs from Tengshan. If you like it so much, just buy a house and live here."

Hai Bodong sat up and waved his hand unhappily, while Jia Xingtian leaned back slightly and chuckled.

"Forget it then. An old man like me who can't keep up with the times should just stay in the Jia Ma Empire. Zhongzhou is too big and not suitable for me."

Some people gain experience in order to climb to a higher position, while some people gain experience just to fulfill their past wishes. Jia Xingtian belongs to the latter.

When he was young, Jia Xingtian also had the idea of ​​abandoning his responsibilities and coming to Zhongzhou to make a living. However, because the burden of the Jia Ma Empire had to be carried by someone, Jia Xingtian at that time thought of putting this idea aside for the time being and coming to Zhongzhou after everything was settled.

And this temporary, it lasted for decades.

Now Jia Xingtian finally has some free time, but he no longer has the fighting spirit he had when he was young.

Afterwards, several old friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time started chatting, and Xiao Yu accompanied them silently throughout the whole process. At this time, there was a knock at the door, and then the door was pushed open. Yafei walked in and saw Jia Xingtian and the other two appearing in the office. She was suddenly stunned.

"Old Jia, Master Yunshan, Master Xiao Jing, why are you here?"

"I came to see those unscrupulous juniors, and took a look around." Jia Xingtian looked at Yafei with interest, and said softly, "Yafei, you are more beautiful than before after not seeing you for so many years. How is it? Have you and Xiao Yan succeeded?"

"Unfortunately, not yet." Yafei smiled politely, with a helpless look in her eyes, "Brother Xiao Yan has been very busy in recent years, and I can hardly find a chance to spend time with him alone."

"Well, then there is no hope for Ye'er?"

Jia Xingtian curled his lips in disappointment. Although Yao Ye didn't say it at the beginning, Jia Xingtian could certainly guess why Yao Ye came to Zhongzhou. As a result, from Yafei's words, Yao Ye didn't make any progress.

Okay, children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Yao Ye can come to Zhongzhou to expand his horizons, which is quite a harvest. As for the relationship with Xiao Yan, it can only be said that fate has not yet arrived.

At this moment, Tengshan suddenly slapped his forehead.

"Oh! I just remembered it when you mentioned Xiao Yan." Tengshan looked at Yafei and said in her puzzled eyes: "Xiao Yan sent a message this morning, saying that he would come today."

"Huh? When?"

Yafei was suddenly startled and asked hurriedly. At this time, Tengshan and the others were all stunned. Tengshan raised his hand and pointed behind him.

"It's here now."

"Hmm!"

Yafei turned around suddenly and saw Xiao Yan appeared in the room at some point, and greeted Yafei with a chuckle.

"Sister Yafei, long time no see."

"Ah, long time no see." Yafei quickly calmed down, with her usual charming smile on her face, "Xiao Yan, you are really something, you came so quickly, I didn't have time to dress up."

"That's not necessary, Sister Yafei is so beautiful even without dressing up, if I dress up again, I may not dare to stand in front of you."

After so many years of experience, Xiao Yan can now respond to Yafei, the seductive fairy, with a normal face, and these words made Yafei blush, full of anger, and knocked Xiao Yan's chest with her jade hand.

At this time, Xiao Yu came over and looked at his brother in front of him with a gentle face.

"Yan'er, long time no see."

"Sister, welcome to Zhongzhou."

Before coming in, Xiao Yan sensed the arrival of Xiao Yu and others, so he didn't show any surprise at this moment, but was a little helpless.

"Sister, please send me a message before you come, so that I can prepare to receive you in advance."

"No need, you must have your own things to do, and we can't disturb you." Xiao Yu smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and pinched Xiao Yan's cheek, "I haven't brought the younger generation home in the past few years, and my father and others miss you so much. The elder has always wanted to thank you for Xiao Yu's matter, but he didn't have the chance."

"Besides, your second sister has sworn that she will beat you up when you go back."

"This is really bad."

Xiao Yan scratched his hair embarrassedly, feeling warm in his heart.

Then Xiao Yan came to Jia Xingtian and Yunshan, and bowed slightly to them respectfully.

"Old Jia, Senior Yunshan, long time no see."

"Hey hey hey~ Straighten your waist, we can't bear your gift."

Jia Xingtian said jokingly, and Xiao Yan responded with a smile.

"No matter what kind of achievements you have, you should follow the etiquette for elders who deserve respect."

As soon as this sentence came out, Yunshan and Jia Xingtian felt warm in their hearts.

Really, if other people had achieved this at Xiao Yan's age, they would have been arrogant and would not have any etiquette in their minds. It can be seen that Xiao Yan has indeed grown a lot over the years, but the integrity and humility in his bones have never changed, which is really rare.

After that, Xiao Yan chatted with everyone for a while, and seeing that the chat was almost over, Ya Fei stepped forward and asked Xiao Yan at the right time.

"Brother Xiao Yan, what are you doing here today?"

"Oh, we were so happy chatting that I almost forgot." Xiao Yan smiled sheepishly, took out the three-point fragment of the picture from the ring and handed it to Yafei, "Sister Yafei, please help me. Find the remaining picture as soon as possible."

"This is?"

Yafei looked at the broken picture in her hand in confusion, Xiao Yan did not hide anything and answered directly.

"This should be a residual picture that contains clues to the Pure Lotus Demon Fire."

Anyway, the Pure Lotus Demon Fire is about to be born. There is no reason to hide this thing, not to mention that there is no guarantee whether it will be found or not.

"Pure Lotus Demon Fire? The third one on the strange fire list?" Hai Bodong, who was chewing an apple, suddenly stopped and looked at Xiao Yan with a solemn brow, "Is something going to happen recently?"

Haibodong knew about the existence of these fragmentary pictures. One of them was the one he had given to Xiao Yan. He had almost forgotten it after so many years.

Based on Haibodong's understanding of Xiao Yan, if there was no emergency, this kind of thing should have been gathering dust in Xiao Yan's Najie.

"Yes." Xiao Yan nodded, his expression more solemn, "There is news that the Jinglian demon fire will be born in Zhongzhou in a while, and the eight ancient tribes will send people to fight for it. If this residual map and Jinglian are If the Lotus Demon Fire is really relevant, it might be able to help."

"It's the Eight Clans again"

Haibodong took a bite of the apple. He used to think that the Eight Tribes were tall and stalwart, but in recent years he didn't think so after seeing the young people from the Eight Tribes who had temporarily settled in the Tianhe Alliance.

What kind of family education can produce what kind of children? In Haibodong's eyes, the so-called eight ethnic groups are just a bunch of old antiques who have no power but are completely unaware of the changes of the times. Those younger generations are also less familiar with the world than the last one. , his eyes are clear and stupid. Without considering his strength, he could be deceived even in his underpants in the previous Black Corner Territory. There are so many young people from the eight ethnic groups in total, and only a few can see it. of.

"Don't worry, brother Xiao Yan, my sister will try her best to help you find it." Ya Fei put away the remaining pictures and assured Xiao Yan, "As long as it is in someone's hands, my sister will definitely help you find it."

This is not an exaggeration. In recent years, with the support of Tianhe Alliance, Yafei has relied on her own ability to develop the Miter family into a quite powerful business family in Zhongzhou. Although it does not have a monopoly, it has almost all the They have very good relationships with all the merchants. As long as the remaining residual picture is not buried in some deep mountain forest, Yafei is absolutely confident that she can help Xiao Yan find it.

Xiao Yan smiled and nodded when he heard Ya Fei's words.

"Well, then I'll trouble Sister Yafei." (End of Chapter)
