Not long after returning to the family, Dongfang Xiao got the news that the compensation promised to the Dongfang family for the little money had been paid in full without any delay.

"Hehe, it seems that this money is not much, but he is still a smart person." Dongfang Xiao shook his head, but when he said it, if he didn't have a certain mind, how could he be the head of a clan?

Soon after, the Alchemy Guild also sent a message, the identity of the ebony has been investigated, he was also an alchemist of the Alchemy Guild, but because the alchemy could not be improved for a long time, he started those evil crooked thoughts, and finally the matter was revealed to run away, but I didn't expect to catch him in this Wuyang City.

Hearing this news, Dongfang Xiao also breathed a sigh of relief, what he was most worried about was that there was a powerful force behind the ebony, and now that he knew that he was alone, he was naturally a lot more relaxed.

In the next few days, Dongfang Xiao had a much more comfortable life, and things in the clan gradually got on the right track, with the injection of funds from the Qian family, the business of the Dongfang family was also thriving.

"By the way, the matter of cooperation should also be discussed with my father."

Thinking of this, Dongfang Xiao did not hesitate and directly told his father about it.

"Although I can do this as the master, but a large amount of funds need the approval of the elders of the clan, at least notify them, if you can get their affirmation, this matter is easier to do."

Dongfang Fu said this to Dongfang Xiao.

"But you have just made a great contribution to the family, and you can be said to be in the middle of the family, and you can be regarded as a great hero, if you bring up this matter in the meeting, presumably they should also sell you a face."

"Okay......"

Dongfang Xiao sighed and said, it is not easy to convince those elders, especially the great elder who has always been cautious, he can be regarded as highly respected in the clan, many elders in the clan are only his leader, and his influence in the clan is not inferior to that of Dongfang Fu, the patriarch, if he objects, this matter will probably be quite difficult.

"Well, I can only try as much as I can."

A few days later.

"Hehe, patriarch, what is the matter with summoning us this time?"

"Although I don't know what the specific thing is, looking at the appearance of the patriarch, it shouldn't be a bad thing."

Everyone seems to be in a good mood, the development of the Dongfang family has been very rapid recently, and they are also a lot busy, but seeing the family growing stronger day by day, they are also sincerely happy in their hearts.

The Great Elder looked at the bustling crowd, frowned, and said, "Shut up for me!" What a serious matter the clan is, and what kind of system are you making such a noise? ”

Seeing the Great Elder speak, everyone immediately fell silent, and the Great Elder's prestige among the clan was also visible.

Dongfang Xiao smiled bitterly, stood up and said, "Actually, I have something to tell you about holding this clan meeting. ”

Everyone looked at each other, but they didn't speak, although Dongfang Xiao is considered a junior in the family, but because of recent events, no one underestimates him.

Dongfang Xiao saw that everyone didn't raise any objections, so he continued:

"I would like to propose to the family to carry out some cooperation with the Mo family."

"Who is the Mo family?" Many people asked suspiciously, in this nearby city, there does not seem to be a Mo family.

"The Mo family is ......"

Dongfang Xiao briefly explained the affairs of the Mo family, and also gave a general introduction to their cooperation plan, and the elders of the clan also fell into silence for a while.

After a long time, an elder finally spoke: "Although Young Master Xiao is talented and intelligent, is this matter a bit reckless?" ”

When someone spoke, there were many elders who supported the elder's opinion.

"Yes, we don't know anything about this Mo family."

"Young Master Xiao is still young after all, and something as important as cooperation is not something to be said casually."

"There is still so much money to be mobilized, if there is a ...... in case of a mishap"

"It's not that easy." Dongfang Xiao sighed and said loudly:

"Elder Aoki's words also have some truth, but if you want to reap the rewards, you must take some risks, at least I think that it is worth taking these risks to make the family strong, and please believe me, I am confident that this matter will be handled well."

"It's not that we don't believe in Young Master Xiao, it's really a matter of great importance, so it's better not to jump to conclusions."

"Yes, now that the Dongfang family is already very powerful, why should they take such a big risk?"

"It's better to be more stable, first stabilize our foundation in this Wuyang City, and let's talk about cooperation later."

In the face of these situations on the field, Dongfang Fu also felt a little helpless, although he is the head of a clan, and the right to speak is not weak, but at this moment he is not easy to speak, Dongfang Xiao is his son after all, if he opens his mouth to support, it will make people feel a little suspicious of favoritism.

Dongfang Xiao also felt very helpless, many of these elders in the clan were very satisfied with the current status quo, and they were unwilling to let the family take any risks, and because of their age, they did not trust Dongfang Xiao very much, which was also the most helpless thing for him.

Dongfang Xiao set his eyes on the Great Elder, if the Great Elder spoke against it again, I am afraid that this matter would be difficult to handle, but according to the Great Elder's usual style, he would have to oppose this matter.

"Even if the family doesn't support it, this thing has to be done, it's a big deal...... It's in my own name. ”

Dongfang Xiao said thoughtlessly, at this time, the Great Elder who had been silent finally spoke, but what he said made Dongfang Xiao feel very surprised.

"The old man supports the cooperation."

"What?"

Dongfang Xiao looked at the Great Elder in disbelief, a little unable to believe his ears, the Great Elder, who had always been the representative of the conservative faction in the clan, actually supported this matter, which really surprised him.

When the Great Elder opened his mouth, the opposition in the clan suddenly weakened a lot, and the Great Elder glanced at Dongfang Xiao with a smile and said:

"What's wrong? Surprised? Could it be that in your mind, the old man has always been that kind of pedantic person? ”
