"Propose?" Shang Pinglan's face immediately became gloomy, and he looked at his father Shang Yuan: "Dad, what's going on?"

Shang Yuan also noticed Shang Pinglan's face and said with a smile: "Pinglan, I know that you have always been unapologetic to those young and handsome people, so when someone came to propose marriage before, they all refused, but Yu Gongzi is different." ”

Saying that, he looked at the young man standing behind Elder Liu, and said with a smile: "Yu Gongzi is Elder Liu's personal disciple, but a genius of the Yu family from the Dongchen Domain, at a young age, he is already the same as you, he is an alchemist of the fourth grade, whether it is talent or family background, it is enough to match you, Pinglan, Dad doesn't force you to agree, but Yu Gongzi is a rare young handsome, you should still have a good exchange of feelings." ”

Shang Pinglan's face sank, and before he could speak, the young man called Yu Gongzi spoke.

I saw him staring at Shang Pinglan with both eyes, with a hint of amazement in his eyes, and a hint of very vague greed, and said with a smile: "I haven't reported my name yet, it's my rudeness." Below is Yu Cheng, from the Dongchen Domain, this time my master is the new elder of the Nanfeng Domain Danta, so he came here with my master. ”

"Oh, is it? I have never known each other with Yu Gongzi, why did Yu Gongzi come to the door to propose marriage as soon as he came to this Purple Maple City?" Shang Pinglan said lightly.

Yu Cheng stared at Shang Pinglan tightly: "Although Pinglan may not remember, but two years ago, when Pinglan and Master Zuo Yuzuo went to Nanyang Shangyu Danta together, you and I once had a relationship, the beauty of Pinglan, peerless in the world, since the last goodbye, I have never forgotten Pinglan Your figure, although this Nanfeng Domain is large, I am afraid I can't find someone worthy of Pinglan you, the accident I came to Nanfeng Domain with Master this time, just to ask Master to come to propose marriage for me." ”

Elder Liu stroked his beard and said: "The merchant's little Nizi, my apprentice's conduct and appearance are all the best choices, and your merchant is also a good match, you two can be described as talented and beautiful, a match made in heaven, in this case, today by my master, to propose marriage, for the two of you to sign a marriage contract, such a good thing, presumably your merchant will not refuse, right?"

Although his words seemed soft, his tone was unmistakably tough.

Shang Pinglan's face was calm, but there was already a trace of anger in his eyes: "Thank you Elder Liu and Yu Gongzi for their love, it's just that Pinglan doesn't have the idea of getting married for the time being, so I can only waste the kindness of the two of you, if there is nothing else, please go back, Pinglan just returned from a trip and is a little tired." ”

Shang Yuan next to him was suddenly taken aback: "Ping Lan—why are you talking to Elder Liu like this?"

Hearing Shang Pinglan's words, Yu Cheng's face suddenly sank, and Elder Liu also stopped stroking his beard, looking at Shang Pinglan, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his tone became a little cold: "Oh?

Shang Pinglan said lightly: "Yu Gongzi is indeed a talent, but Pinglan is now worshipping Master Zuo as his teacher, and he is dedicated to studying alchemy, and before he stepped into the master's mirror, he had no intention of thinking about getting married." ”

Elder Liu didn't seem surprised by Shang Pinglan's answer, squinted his eyes, looked at Shang Pinglan for a while, and suddenly said: "Your master Zuo Yu and I are also old friends, he will soon be transferred back to Nanyang Shangyu Danta, and I will succeed you in the position of Nanfeng Domain Danta, although your talent is not bad, but before you break through the Wupin Dan Master, you are not qualified to go to Nanyang Shangyu Danta, you can only continue to stay in this Nanfeng Danta." ”

Then his gaze turned to Shang Yuan next to him, and he evoked a meaningful smile: "If I'm not mistaken, the merchant started with the pill business, right? And in this Purple Maple City, ninety percent of the pills come from the Danta." Your merchants can account for a full thirty percent of the share, it seems that they have received a lot of care from Zuo Yu, but after that, ......"

Both Shang Yuan and Shang Ping Blue have a slight change in complexion.

Elder Liu was right, the big family in Purple Maple City basically started with the pill business, and in fact, the pill was also one of the most profitable businesses in the world.

As one of the top families in Purple Maple City, the merchant also takes the pill business as his lifeblood, so he naturally has a lot to do with Danta.

In the hundred domains of the Doufa Continent, there is a Dan Tower, and there is only one tower master, that is, the Qingyun Dan Holy Feather Ion, and the sub-towers of the other domains are all governed by a branch tower master and a Danta elder.

The branch tower masters and elders are basically appointed by the Danta headquarters in the upper domain, and there will be transfers and tenures during this period.

The merchant has a close relationship with Zuo Yu, the elder before the Danta of Nanfengyu, and it can be said that Zuo Yu accepts the offerings of the merchants, and the merchants use Zuo Yu's power to occupy a full thirty percent of the pills produced by the Danta.

The two sides can be said to be in a symbiotic relationship, although the elder is in charge of the Danta, he is not a monopoly, and there is also the restriction of the sub-tower master. The resources of the Danta are not owned by one person, and the resources to be consumed by a six-rank alchemist are all astronomical, if there is no other source of resources, just relying on the supply of the Danta elder, I am afraid it will not be enough to refine a few furnaces of the six-rank elixir. Therefore, basically the elders of Danta will accept offerings from outside families.

You must know that this is the only Danta in the entire Nanfeng Domain, and thirty percent of the share is monopolized by one family, and it is self-evident how big its profits are, and it is precisely because of this that the merchant has become the number one big family in Zifeng City and even in the entire ten cities. It is precisely because of the close relationship between the two parties and Shang Pinglan's outstanding talent that Zuo Yu will accept him as his personal disciple.

Shang Pinglan's master, Elder Zuo Yu, was originally transferred from the Danta of the Nanyang Upper Domain, and his term of office in the Nanfeng Domain has recently expired, so it will not be long before he will be transferred back to the Nanyang Upper Domain, and this Elder Liu is the one who came to take over the position of the Elder of the Danta of the Nanfeng Domain.

Zuo Yu wants to leave Nanfeng Domain, it is naturally like a bolt from the blue for the merchants, Shang Pinglan is usually concentrating on studying alchemy, so he doesn't have much awareness of these, but the business yuan, as the head of the business, can naturally clearly realize that if Zuo Yu leaves, the thirty percent share of the merchant may be in jeopardy.

Therefore, in the face of Elder Liu's door-to-door proposal, not only did he not refuse, but he was also a little happy.

If Shang Pinglan can marry Yu Cheng, then Shang will undoubtedly be able to get in touch with the new elder.

However, the truth was not as simple as he thought, as soon as Shang Pinglan's words of refusal came out, Elder Liu's attitude was obviously to threaten Shang Yuan with this.

To say that the merchant family has a big business, and in the entire Purple Maple City, there are not many people who dare to threaten the commercial yuan, but this Danta is the lifeblood of the merchants, and in the face of the elder Danta, no matter how good the commercial yuan is, there is not much confidence.

Shang Yuan noticed this, so he had to look at his daughter with some pleading eyes.

Shang Pinglan also understood the key at this time, and suddenly became embarrassed.

Yu Cheng and Elder Liu obviously came prepared, and they had the lifeblood of the merchant in their hands, so they were naturally not afraid that they would not agree.

Therefore, both of them looked confident, Yu Cheng smiled and said: "It seems that Pinglan also understands that only I, Yu Cheng, am the most suitable person for you, if Pinglan doesn't mind, we will choose a date, how about it?"

Just when Yu Cheng was full of confidence, a voice sounded from the side.

"I said—"

Everyone subconsciously looked together, and saw a handsome young man dressed in white, standing impatiently on the edge of the pavilion, leaning against the pillar, plucking his ears with his little thumb, and said: "I said, you have said so much nonsense, and you have left me, the protagonist, aside for a whole chapter, have you thought about my feelings?
