Chapter 179: Is it too high-profile?
"What! You, you chose the Mo family? Did I hear you right?"
Murong Yunhai was waiting for a good show and looked confident.
But Lin Xiao's words made him shocked. He never imagined that Lin Xiao would not choose their city lord's mansion, but still choose the Mo family.
"Boy, are you a fool?"
The first elder of the City Lord's Mansion also looked surprised and said: "Don't you know how to choose such a multiple-choice question? The treatment in the City Lord's Mansion is better, and it also has more room for your future development. You actually chose the Mo family?"
Lin Xiao smiled slightly, nodded and said: "The city lord just said that he respects my choice. I chose to stay in the Mo family. I believe the city lord will respect my choice!"
After Lin Xiao thought for a while, he added: "The people in the Mo family treat me well, and I get along very well with them. I am mainly used to this harmonious atmosphere."
The people of the Mo family looked at each other and smiled. They were extremely satisfied with Lin Xiao's answer.
Mo Zhentian was even more pleased, thinking that he had indeed made a mistake. Lin Xiao was a man who repaid his kindness and would not abandon the Mo family just because of some benefits.
"Okay, I, Murong Yunhai, keep my word!"
Murong Yunhai's face was extremely gloomy. Wasn't Lin Xiao's choice a slap in the face?
He looked at Lin Xiao and said again: "I hope you don't regret it, Lin Xiao. Think about it carefully. I'll give you three more days. Within these three days, if you regret it, you can come to the City Lord at any time." The government is looking for me!"
Lin Xiao nodded, but said no more.
Mo Zhentian was very happy and stepped forward and said: "By the way, City Lord, we have just taken over the Long family's industry. We still need to calculate the specific output values of some companies. After a few days, we will After a few days, we will divide it into two parts and try to keep the value of the two parts almost the same. When the time comes, we will give you half of it."
Murong Yunhai nodded and then stood up: "It's easy to talk, easy to talk about, so let's leave first. Let's leave this matter as it is."
Mo Zhentian and others immediately came forward to greet them. Mo Zhentian took the lead and said politely: "Mr. City Lord, please stay and have lunch together. It is rare for a rare guest like you to come to our Mo family."
However, Murong Yunhai didn't find Lin Xiao, and he was in a bad mood, so he refused directly: "It's still early, and my city lord's mansion is quite busy, so I won't stay for dinner. I believe that we will have plenty in the future. A chance to have dinner together.”
"Okay then, walk slowly!"
Mo Zhentian and others followed behind them and sent several people out of the gate with a smile.
It wasn't until the other person drove away for a while that Mo Zhentian led the person back.
At this time, Mo Sihai also breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, the matter was solved quickly as we expected. Sure enough, as long as the people of the City Lord's Mansion are given some benefits, they will not care about our destruction." It’s about the Long family.”
After Mo Xiaoyao heard this, he said nonchalantly: "Dad, what are you afraid of? We have Lin Xiao with such a high level of cultivation in our family, so there is no need to be so afraid."
However, Mo Sihai rolled his eyes at Mo Xiaoyao and said: "What do you know? Although Lin Xiao's cultivation is powerful, but there are many people on the other side. Once a fight breaks out, it's hard to say whether he can win. Can there be no conflict? That’s naturally the best.”
Mo Zhentian also nodded and said: "Little demon, for the Murong family to become the city lord's palace is not as simple as it seems on the surface. I heard that they have a background behind them. Although we don't know, I I believe this should be true.”
"No way? You mean, there is some other force secretly supporting them?"
After Mo Xiaoyao heard this, he was also shocked.
Mo Zhentian nodded and said: "Yes. Although this is the guess of many of our family heads, I believe it is true, because the Qi Lian Pill is very precious. I know that the City Lord's Mansion can I take out a lot, especially every time during the Chinese New Year, I give a lot to the elders under my command."
At this point, Mo Zhentian felt a little sorry for Lin Xiao, and couldn't help but said to Lin Xiao: "Lin Xiao, you are so young and have such a level of cultivation. If you follow us, we will indeed feel a little wronged to you."
Lin Xiao said nonchalantly: "Hey, no grievance, that Qi Lian Pill is indeed a good thing, but for people with Qi cultivation level, if they want to break through, the effect of using Qi Lian Pill is not very good. Ideal, that thing is quite useful for people with innate cultivation."
Mo Zhentian smiled bitterly and said, "That's better than nothing, but if you can think of it that way, then it's naturally the best."
Mo Yunjie on the side smiled and said: "Hey, last night I was worried that there would be some conflicts between the two families. I didn't expect that it was done so easily. It's really great. In this way, let's forget it." Since we only got half of the Long family's property, we will be considered a first-class family in the future, right?"
Mo Zhentian also said cheerfully: "To become a first-class family, we still need to entertain guests and celebrate. We will announce on the spot that our Mo family will be promoted to a first-class family."
When Lin Xiao heard this, he couldn't laugh or cry even more, and said to Mo Zhentian: "Old man, isn't this too high-profile?"
Mo Zhentian quickly waved his hands and said: "No, no, no, it's not high-profile at all. This is a custom passed down from Jiangcheng. When a third-rate family is promoted to a second-rate family, there is no need to hold a big banquet. But when a second-rate family is promoted to a first-rate family, it must be grand. We need to have a banquet to celebrate and announce on the spot that we have become a first-rate family. After all, there are still many second-rate families, but there are not many first-rate families, only a few."
Lin Xiao was ashamed. He didn't expect that the word "show off" would come out of Mo Zhentian's mouth, and it would be so fresh and refined.
Mo Sihai also felt his face light up, and he said with a smile: "Well, dad, I will let people see a good day. Let's hold a banquet in a few days. It is necessary to celebrate properly."
Mo Ruxue said to Lin Xiao: "This is a banquet to show off your family's status. It would be bad if you don't put it on. Moreover, this will let many wealthy businessmen know that we are a first-class family. For some future business cooperation, It will be more advantageous for us! You know, they know that we have this strength."
After hearing this, Lin Xiao nodded. He did not expect that there were so many things in it. He originally thought that the old man just wanted to show off.
Mo Zhentian thought of something again and couldn't help but said to Mo Xiaoyao: "By the way, Xiaoyao, Lin Xiao is already a Qi master. Don't tell anyone about it. Keep it a secret if you can. Otherwise, , I’m afraid that the people in the City Lord’s Mansion will be unhappy if they know that Lin Xiao is so powerful.”
Mo Sihai also said with emotion: "Yes, if Lin Xiao breaks through a little more, they will not be afraid of the opponent at all. They will feel the threat that Lin Xiao brings to the city lord's mansion, so let them think that Lin Xiao is It will be better if you have an eighth-grade innate cultivation level."
