C182 The Pride of the Strong
As soon as Xiao Chen entered the room, he saw Old Master Zhang's tired face. A dark cloud hung over Zhang Xiaoxiao's head.
The oppressive atmosphere made Xiao Chen frown. He rubbed his arm and walked in.
"It's sunny and sunny outside. The sun is shining brightly. Is there a sudden rainstorm here?"
"It's worse than a rainstorm. The people of Tao family are here! "
"Huh?" Xiao Chen immediately composed himself. Wasn't the Tao family the owner of the land in back hill of Half Mountain Villa?
"What did they say?"
"It's nothing. They just came to apologize to us."
"Apologize for what?"
"What else can it be? The old man from the Tao family has returned to the country. The Tao family has decided to start the construction of retirement fortifications for Elder Tao. The land in back hill of Half Mountain Villa will naturally have to be taken back, and the three-year lease will naturally be voided."
As he spoke, the son of the Zhang family rubbed his head. This matter had happened too suddenly, and he was caught off guard.
Even though the Tao family had said it with sincerity and evidence, it was inevitable that this scene would cause people to think too much.
"What do you mean?"
"The Zhang family has a good relationship with the Tao family. In the past, it was all thanks to the Tao family's help that Tao clothing was able to open up the overseas market."
"Understood!" Taking a deep look at Old Master Zhang, Xiao Chen did not say anything more and stood up.
Seeing him turn around and leave, Old Master Zhang's face immediately changed and hurriedly stopped him.
"Don't worry! Let me finish first."
Xiao Chen gently pushed the old man's palm away and turned his head coldly. At this moment, there was an obvious comb in his eyes.
"The back hill of Half Mountain Villa is full of spiritual energy. Even the Tao family would not easily touch that Spiritual Spring. After all, it is beneficial to Elder Tao. Your share will not change. As for the rest, I will discuss with the Tao family. In short, I will not let you suffer any losses."
Regardless of whether the Tao family had come for that Spiritual Spring or not, the Zhang's couldn't give up on the Beauty Pill.
Once the Longevity Mountain of Hua Prefecture fell into the hands of the Tao family, even if they didn't come for the Spiritual Spring, they wouldn't ignore the existence of the Spiritual Spring.
If the Zhang family wanted to continue to rely on the Beauty Pill to profit, or even the southeast, they would be restricted by the Tao family.
This was the reality!
If it was possible, he did not want to give up the Spiritual Spring to someone else. After all, the Beauty Pill's formula had already been spread out.
In other words, even without the Zhang's, there would still be people from the Tao family who would cooperate with him.
And because of the existence of the Spiritual Spring, the patent for Beauty Pill had never been applied, nor could it be applied.
This also gave the Beauty Pill an additional variable in the future, and it was even enough to affect Old Master Zhang's ambition.
But this Tao family, right now, the Zhang family couldn't afford to offend them!
Therefore, the only thing the old man could do was to stabilize Xiao Chen while trying his best to work together with the Tao family.
However, the Tao family was not Xiao Chen. He was afraid that the Zhang family would have to pay a hefty price.
If he didn't offend the Tao family, he would have to do this. This was the best way Old Master Zhang could think of after weighing the pros and cons.
However, he didn't know that the reason Xiao Chen built the Spirit Gathering Formation in back hill of Half Mountain Villa wasn't just for the sake of creating a mere Spiritual Spring.
What Xiao Chen wanted was a base camp. Whether it was the concentration of spiritual energy or the topography of Hua Prefecture, they all agreed with his conditions.
Return that piece of land to Tao family?
Sorry, Xiao Chen never thought of that from the beginning.
"Where are their men now?"
"Don't be impulsive, the Tao family isn't like the Muh family. Please don't..."
Old Master Zhang saw Xiao Chen's cold eyes and immediately realized that something was wrong. However, just as he spoke, Xiao Chen had already left.
"Grandpa, what's wrong with this guy? Didn't we already say that we won't let him suffer any losses?"
"Haven't you seen through it yet? Back then, he casually gave us the Beauty Pill's formula, even after he forged the Spiritual Spring with his own hands. He never said that he would change the terms of the agreement. A person like him... He has never cared about small profits. "
"What's that?"
"A powerhouse has the pride of a powerhouse. The Spiritual Spring has always been his! If someone steals your things, will you be happy?"
Whether it was the older the wiser. Even if Old Master Zhang did not guess everything correctly, he still said part of the reason.
How could anyone simply think about the things of Immortal Sovereigns?
Zhang Xiaoxiao, on the other hand, did not know much about it. After a while, she looked up at her grandfather and asked, "Then what should we do next?"
Whether it was Tao family or Xiao Chen, the Zhang family had to make a choice no matter what.
Hearing this, the old man rubbed his head and closed his eyes, letting out a long sigh.
This really wasn't a good choice. Regarding Xiao Chen, he had his own concerns.
However, he was also very secretive about the Tao family.
After all, he was a famous business tycoon in the international business world.
With the strength of the Tao family, it was a piece of cake for them to suppress the Zhang's!
"Let me think about it first!" Taking a deep breath, Old Master Zhang said with difficulty.
At this moment, a figure rushed in.
"Master, I got the news early in the morning. Last night at the hotel under the banner of the Muh family, over a hundred cultivators of the Muh family, including Mu Yutian and half of the higher ups were injured and hospitalized. The Muh family is about to go crazy from anger."
"What's going on? Tell me in detail."
"I heard it was Xiao Chen! The Muh family set a trap for us and set up an inescapable net, but in the end... "
"Is that so?" Old Master Zhang didn't wait for the person to finish his report and revealed a bitter smile.
He had already guessed something when he saw the news on the Internet.
However, it was obvious that the matter was even more surprising than he had imagined. There were over a hundred cultivators and several upper echelons of the Muh family...
All of these caused his heart to tremble. He reevaluated Xiao Chen's strength.
"Tell Tao Yuxian that although we understand the filial piety of the Tao family, the contract is signed for three years!"
Sighing, Old Master Zhang seemed to have used all his strength to say these words.1
The shock on Zhang Xiaoxiao's face did not disappear. She did not expect her grandfather to be so straightforward.
"Grandfather, is it again..."
But before she could finish, the old man waved his hand and interrupted her. At the same time, he dismissed the person who reported to her.
"Don't forget, we are after all martial cultivation families!"
This short sentence made Zhang Xiaoxiao speechless. In the end, she held her palm and did not speak again.
At this time, Xiao Chen had already rushed to the Dragonwing Hall. If the old man from the Zhang family did not say it, it was not like he could not find out.
Just as the order was given, Old Master Zhang's message was suddenly sent.
Glancing at it, Xiao Chen let out a cold snort. He didn't stay any longer and turned around to leave.
At this time, in the top suite on the top floor of the North City Yun Qing Hotel, Ruan Xiangjun sent the gift to the old man in the wheelchair.
Beside the old man stood a middle-aged man. It was Tao Yuxian.
"Little Jun, you are still so considerate. But your Grandpa Tao doesn't care about these. He is very happy that you can come and see him."
