In the following period of time, the Xia family entered a rather rare peace, and the Council of Elders no longer always tried to highlight their presence and express their opinions as much as possible as before, but handed over most of the rights to the family affairs to Xia Ya to decide.

Xia Junkai is no longer active in all corners of the Xia family, and he shows his gentleness, frugality, forgiveness, and trust and benevolence with every member of the Xia family.

Instead, he locked himself in the house, and lived a life like a small jasper without leaving the door.

During this period, Xia Ya announced a total of two things, the first thing was that all the family properties and personnel that were originally within Xia Junkai's jurisdiction were broken up and handed over to some other people in the family to be responsible.

As soon as this matter was announced, it caused an uproar in the entire Xia family, and everyone was speculating about what had happened to make Xia Ya make such a decision.

After all, Xia Ya's trust in Xia Junkai has always been obvious to all.

Although he is only an adopted son, Xia Junkai and Xia Ya do not have any blood relationship, but because Xia Junkai's performance in the Xia family has always been perfect, even the rest of the Xia family does not have any thoughts of rejection of Xia Junkai.

Even after so many years of familiarity and cognition, and the negative impression that Xia Fan has always provided, even if Xia Ya wants to make Xia Junkai the next heir to the head of the family, then the doubts and opposition that may be encountered will never be too big.

Everyone didn't expect that Xia Ya would suddenly make such a decision, and what they couldn't understand was that Xia Junkai did not express the slightest objection or dissatisfaction with this decision, so he lived quietly in his own house and chose to accept it.

As for the statement that the Xia family claimed in the name of the family that Xia Junkai was in poor health and was not suitable to continue to take care of these family industries for the time being, even an idiot would never believe it.

Thinking of the reaction of the Presbyterian Church, for a while, many people thought that it was Xia Ya who finally decided to really start monopolizing power after all these years of vertical arching, and made a decision in the Xia family.

As for the people who were arranged to take over the family business that Xia Junkai was responsible for, they were not very conspicuous in the Xia family, and they had never shown too superhuman abilities, basically all of them belonged to the type that had not many or too much.

But after the redistribution of this matter, everyone suddenly found out that these people were all Xia Ya's henchmen!

And most of them showed amazing management skills and management capabilities for the first time after taking over the industry that belonged to Xia Junkai!

Apparently...... The usual moderation is simply intentional convergence and camouflage!

Such a strong contrast between before and after made many Xia family members subconsciously begin to think about how much truth is there in the mediocre appearance of Xia Ya in the years since he became the patriarch......

Because this matter attracted the attention of all the clansmen of the Xia family, the announcement of the second thing did not make many waves.

The only medicine tripod of the Xia family, which had been under the care of the second elder Xia Wuxian, was officially transferred to the courtyard of the third elder Xia Wuxian, and was taken care of by the third elder.

Almost every member of the Xia family knows about the existence of this medicine tripod, but there are very few people from the Xia family who have actually seen this medicine tripod.

In addition, the Xia family in Qingyang City has never had even a single alchemist, so this medicine tripod is more of a psychological comfort in the minds of the Xia family, in fact, few people really value this medicine tripod.

No matter how precious things are, they must always reflect their value in order to really make people pay attention to them, otherwise there will not be so many dusty things in this world.

However, for some people, this matter, which is ignored by the vast majority of people, is actually the focus of their greatest attention.

So a lot of times, being brave when most people are brave, being brave when most people are afraid, can often really get on the path to the right direction.

People who will only follow the crowd but are not mavericks, no matter how good they are, can only stand out from everyone in the end.

Except for these two things, the entire Xia family was like a pool of stagnant water during this time, unable to set off a single wave, and from top to bottom, it seemed that only the smell of lifeless decay remained, without a little vitality.

But this silence seemed to brew something, like the heart-stopping tranquility before the storm, full of a certain oppressive taste.

However, in this silence, there is a place in the Xia family's mansion that is noisy every day, which seems incompatible with the overall atmosphere of the family.

This place is naturally Xia Fan's house.

After dealing with the matter of the black hand killer, Xia Fan went to the stronghold that the black hand killer said early the next morning.

In a very dilapidated mansion, Xia Fan found what he wanted, and then through the information that came out of the interrogation, he gave a simple message back to the two-star killer to whom he belonged.

The Mafia has its own postal routes, and while it is an astronomical expense to maintain a large number of postal routes throughout the Southern Regions, it is not difficult for the Mafia to bear the income.

It's just that Qingyang City is too remote, so it is not within the direct reach of the Black Hand Mail Road, resulting in the messenger only going back and forth between Qingyang City and the nearest city with a stronghold of the Black Hand every three months.

When he learned from the mouth of the black hand killer that his connection with his two-star killer was not once a month, but once every month, Xia Fan naturally had great confidence in the success of his disguise.

Qingyang City...... Sure enough, it is so remote that grandma doesn't hurt and uncle doesn't love it.

After doing this, Xia Fan returned to the Xia family mansion and went straight to Xia Ya's mansion, and Xia Ya temporarily took control of all the blood servants for three months.

Although he didn't know what Xia Fan was going to do, Xia Ya agreed to Xia Fan's request without too much hesitation.

For Xia Fan, this is obviously a big improvement.

Then Xia Fan asked the blood river and the blood hand to call all the blood servants to his mansion.

It was noon, the scorching sun was in the sky, and the unsheltered yard was exposed to the hot sun, and the air seemed to be filled with the smell of heat.

The two of them, Blood River and Bloody Hand, stood straight in the middle of the courtyard, not squinting.

The other blood servants stood behind the two of them, although there were many doubts in their eyes, they were still silent and solemn, and the sixty people stood so neatly, looking very inexplicably oppressive.

Although the blood river and the bloody hand didn't know what Xia Fan was going to do, after this period of getting along, the two no longer had any prejudice against Xia Fan, and maybe they were not dead hearted, but at least they began to treat Xia Fan as a master.

As for the other Blood Servants, they didn't have much of an idea, they were just doing what they were told.

Ya'er and Ye Yi each moved a rocking chair and placed it in the shade under the eaves of the house, lying on it comfortably, eating the fruit that was taken out and placed on the coffee table next to the rocking chair, while looking at such a group of people in the courtyard.

Bai Xingshu was still holding the piece of rice paper that Xia Fan had written, and stood quietly beside Ye Yi and Ya'er and watched.

Xia Fan stood opposite these blood servants with his hands behind his back, and after looking at everyone for a while, he suddenly looked at the blood river and said, "Remember our previous bet, right?" ”
