"Let's get in!" a guard stepped out of the room, opened the door, and let the butler in.

"Thank you both. Steward Wu clenched his hands into fists and shook a few times at the two guards in front of the door, his mouth was very polite.

The guard nodded coldly, in response to him, and then stood in front of the door without saying a word, continuing to guard the room behind him.

Steward Wu had long been accustomed to the coldness of these guards, and he didn't care, and stepped through the door and entered the room guarded by the guards.

As soon as he entered the room, his feet were on the soft blankets, surrounded by all kinds of gilt furnishings, and the whole room was decorated with gold, even if it was not the first time he had come to this room, he was still shocked.

"The old slave has seen the second master! Steward Wu glanced at the furnishings in the room with a nostalgic look, and when he saw the two people sitting on the animal skin seats in the room, he trotted a few steps and came to the front and kowtowed.

"Okay, it's all my own family, so I don't need to give such a big gift. A middle-aged man with a round face and a slightly chubby face on the animal skin seat raised his hand and motioned for Steward Wu to stand up.

Steward Wu got up from the ground, his hands hanging down in front of him, and stood aside respectfully.

"Steward Wu, did you come to the firm this time on the orders of the head of the family?" The round-faced middle-aged man picked up the teacup on the tea table in his hand and flicked the tea leaves floating on the water with the lid of the cup.

Steward Wu hurriedly replied respectfully: "The old slave came this time for a private matter, to buy some elixir potions for his nephew, I heard that the second master and the sixth young master are here, how dare I pass through the door and not enter, so I hurriedly came to meet the second master and the sixth young master." ”

The round-faced middle-aged man took a sip of tea, put down the teacup, and said gently: "You are loyal, knowing that I and the Sixth Young Master are here, and you came to meet you." ”

At this time, the young man sitting on the side interjected: "Second uncle, Steward Wu has been busy for our Wu family for many years, and even the surname was given by my father, and it is also half of the Wu family, so it is simply up to the nephew to take some elixir potions and let Steward Wu take them back to his nephew." ”

Hearing the words of the sixth young master on the seat, Steward Wu was overjoyed, he didn't expect to get some elixir potions for nothing, although the second master, the real manager of the Wu family's firm, had not yet agreed, but the sixth young master spoke, and the second master specified that he would agree.

Sure enough, the round-faced middle-aged man nodded and said, "Since you have decided, then reward him with ten bottles of elixir potion." ”

Immediately, he turned his head to a guard not far away and said, "You go and prepare ten bottles of elixir potion, bring them, and give them to Steward Wu." ”

The guard answered, turned and left the room, going to prepare the elixir potion.

"Second Master Xie and Sixth Young Master reward. At this moment, Steward Wu's face showed joy at the right time, and he bowed down to salute the round-faced middle-aged and young people on the animal skin seat.

After he finished his salute, the round-faced middle-aged man said leisurely: "Okay, you can stand down! ”

"Yes. Steward Wu agreed, but his body did not move, and his face was slightly hesitant.

The round-faced middle-aged man saw that Steward Wu hadn't left, and a look of gloom appeared on his face, and he said, "What's the matter?"

Steward Wu thought that he was about to start on the second floor, knowing that he would definitely not be able to hide the matter, he gritted his teeth, knelt on the ground, and said, "Please also ask the second master and the sixth young master to be the masters of the old slave!"

With that, a head hit the ground.

For Steward Wu's soft coercion, the round-faced middle-aged man's face became ugly, and he could see that he was already very angry.

The sixth young master who was sitting on the side did not have the consciousness of being coerced, but asked with a curious face: "You are the chief butler of my Wu family, is there anyone in Lin'an County who dares to offend you?" ”

Before coming, Steward Wu had already arranged it in his heart, and at this time, he spoke smoothly in 1510.

Of course, he didn't dare to say that his nephew opened a black shop and robbed passers-by, but instead said that Long Zun was a heinous person who robbed his nephew of the money he had saved up for many years to buy elixir potions.

This is not the end, he added oil and vinegar to say it, and finally mentioned that the other party knew that his nephew belonged to the Wu family, but he still didn't let it go and grabbed a clean one.

The young man on the animal skin seat became more and more ugly the more he listened, he didn't care about the robbery of Steward Wu's nephew, but because the other party actually dared to rob the Wu family's territory, and knew that the robber had something to do with the Wu family.

In Lin'an County, the Wu family is the sky, the Wu family has long been empty-eyed, and now there is a person who has the courage to rob someone who has something to do with the Wu family, how can young people stand this.

The young man slapped the tea table next to him and said angrily: "Do you know where the people are? I want to see who is so bold as to dare to make trouble on the ground of my Wu family." ”

Seeing that the young man was angry, Steward Wu was overjoyed, but said quietly on his face: "Sixth Young Master, don't worry, that person is in the Wu family firm now, and I have already arranged for the guards to arrest him." ”

"What a bold man, robbing on the ground of my Wu family, and daring to come to my Wu family's firm, I really don't take my Wu family in my eyes, I want to see who is so ignorant of life and death. With that, the young man got up from his seat and turned to walk out.

Looking at the young man who was walking away, the round-faced middle-aged man frowned, and said in an undeniable tone: "Come back, sit here honestly." ”

The young man paused, stopped the leg he had stepped on, turned around with an unwilling face, and said, "Second uncle, this person is slapping the Wu family in the face, and he must not let it go." ”

"You sit down. The round-faced middle-aged man pointed to the seat next to him with his hand, and then said to the guards not far away, "You two, go and work with Steward Wu to arrest people, whether they live or die." ”

"Yes!" the guard agreed, and turned to look at Steward Wu, "Steward Wu, please lead the way." ”

Soon, Steward Wu left the room with the two guards and walked towards the room where Long Zun was on the second floor.

Waiting for Steward Wu to leave, the young man said with a complaining face: "Second uncle, why are you stopping me, it's just a robber, I take the guards with me, what can happen?"

The round-faced middle-aged man was unmoved, but went to take the wooden box on the tea table, pushed it in front of the young man, and said, "Here is the Condensation Pill that I intercepted from refining the elixir potion this month, you take it back." ”

The young man took the wooden box casually, and every month he would come to the Wu family firm to receive the Ning Li Dan, and he had long been accustomed to it, so he didn't particularly care about the Ning Li Dan in the wooden box.

"Okay, take the Condensation Pill, go back and seize the time to improve your cultivation, and strive to be able to improve one or two realms when you go to the royal capital in three months. As for the things in the trading house, you don't need to worry about it for the time being. The round-faced middle-aged man said.

"Then I'll go back to the second uncle. Ignoring the words of the round-faced middle-aged man, the young man reached out and grabbed the wooden box, held it in his hand, and left the room with his guard.

As soon as he got out of the room and walked to the staircase on the third floor, the young man suddenly stopped, turned to a few guards behind him and said, "You guys, follow me to the second floor to arrest people, I want to see who ate the bear's heart and leopard gall." ”

Several of the guards were all in the samurai realm, and this was the Wu family trading house, so they didn't worry about anything going wrong, so they walked towards the second floor with the young man.
