The interior of the manor is like a huge garden in the eastern and southern regions, while the main building is a three-story Western-style white building.

This is also the characteristics of the ancient country of the Buddha, before the cataclysm, this ancient Eastern country was very westernized, and the power of the Western Holy See has penetrated the top of the country, only the people still continue the ancient tradition and believe in the Buddha of Yanmen.

Three cars bypassed the concrete road on the edge of an artificial lake in the front yard, which covered dozens of acres, and stopped in front of the white Western-style palace-like building, where more than a dozen important people were already waiting in front of the steps.

As soon as Ling Li got out of the car, there were several maids in long skirts who folded their hands, bowed down and smiled: "Sadika! ”

This made Ling Li a little confused, this is not the territory of the descendants of the Eastern Regions, how can you speak Dai language?

In fact, he thought too much, this is a commonly used greeting, even the Eastern Regions ethnic group is no exception, but in ordinary communication, the Eastern Regions language is still used.

Qingyuan City, under which it also governs more than a dozen ordinary towns where humans gather and numerous pioneer barriers, with a combined population of 2 million, is equivalent to a relatively independent autonomous city-state. And the city lord of Qingyuan City, his status in the Xiqi Kingdom is also equivalent to a prince.

Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce, the elder Zhou Kun got a great opportunity in the "Jinluan Pagoda Secret Realm" expedition in his early years, and was promoted to the transcendent realm in one fell swoop, which led the family and a group of brothers to create a large family business. Before his death, Zhou Kun was already a super powerhouse in the Cave Void Realm, and in this Qingyuan City, he was also one of the top powerhouses in the Nirvana Realm, second only to the city lord and the city guard commander, who had both black and white.

The Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce has done a lot of business because it controls the main local medicinal herb business and has close relations with some sects and families in the Eastern Regions. As soon as Kun died this week, all forces were eyeing each other, mainly to take over the business originally controlled by the Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce, and as for seeking to seize the family property, it was secondary.

An Ying got out of the car, held Zhou Jin in her hand, and saluted the three old men led by her: "An Ying has seen the eldest elder, the third uncle, and the sixth uncle. ”

The white-shirted old man at the head said: "It's good to be able to return home safely, but now that all forces are around, the family is also uneasy, and we don't dare to leave easily." ”

The old man in the purple silk shirt looked at Ling Li who was standing behind Zhou Jin, "This is ......"

"Oh, my name is Li Shanlin, I am Zhou Jin's master, and this time I also came here with the apprentice to have a casual look." Ling Li spoke first, "I heard that the scenery of this Qingyuan City is wrong. ”

An Ying was also happy when she heard him say this, since Ling Li said that it was Zhou Jin's master, it was clear that she wanted to cover the safety of their mother and son.

Master and apprentice are like father and son, if anyone acts rashly and wants to be unfavorable to Zhou Jin, he also needs to weigh his own weight in his heart first.

The purple-shirted old man smiled, "Oh, it's Mr. Li, it must be Mr. who escorted the young lady all the way, right?" ”

"It's the surname Lishan, and the surname is restored." Ling Li corrected, "It's just a coincidence." ”

The group entered the huge living room of the main building of the mansion, the room was brightly lit, and most of the main figures of the Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce gathered here.

As the nominal heir, An Ying held her son and sat down on the main seat, while Ling Li, as Zhou Jin's "master", sat opposite the Great Elder below.

"Young lady, the current situation is very bad, Wattana and Chai Wang and others are now openly independent and do not obey the dispatch of the Chamber of Commerce at all." The Great Elder was talking about the current situation of the Chamber of Commerce, looking worried.

Although the Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce sounds like a company, it is actually a gang, and it is involved in both black and white. Zhou Kun's public identity before his death was the president of the Qingyuan City Chamber of Commerce, but behind him was also one of the underworld bosses in this area, and he controlled a lot of underground businesses related to pornography, gambling, and drugs.

This Wattana, Kunyu and Chai Wang are the few righteous sons and main generals that Zhou Kun received before his death, and they control the underground business and underworld forces of the Chamber of Commerce.

An Ying nodded, "The head of the family and the grandson have encountered accidents one after another, and the situation of the Chamber of Commerce is all supported by everyone, and this period is hard for the elders and a few uncles." ”

Ling Li had carefully discussed with her and Elder Mo on the road before, and Kun Yu and the others were obviously instructed by others to intend to be the Buddha's bone relic. can make an underworld gang figure like Kunyu who is close to the realm of the cave willing to obey orders, and the strength of the black hand behind this must not be underestimated, maybe the accidental death of Zhou Kun's father and son is also related to it.

Ling Li only cared about Zhou Jin's safety, but as for other things, he didn't have much interest, let alone meddling in the investigation of the mastermind behind the scenes and avenging Zhou Kun's father and son.

The father and son of the Zhou family are all underworld figures, and they are not good people, and it is a kind of retribution for being killed.

Therefore, Ling Li is strongly advocating that Zhou Jin give up inheriting the Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce, as for the family property, how much can be divided, try to stay away from this place of right and wrong as soon as possible. Although An Ying was a little reluctant to do this family business, Ling Li insisted on it, and for the sake of her son's life, she finally reluctantly agreed.

The third uncle in white sighed and said, "After the eldest brother and my nephew suffered misfortunes one after another, during this period of time, we have been maintaining various things in the Chamber of Commerce, and we have not had time to personally pick up your mother and son back. Now that there is a crisis, someone from the Chamber of Commerce has to come forward to take charge, I don't know what the young lady means......"

After hearing this, Ling Li said directly: "Third Elder, Elder Zhou has passed away, although Zhou Jin is nominally his heir. But this time I sent Jin'er back, but not to inherit the family business, this Qingyuan City is too small, but I can't delay the good future of my apprentice here. The position of the helmsman of this chamber of commerce is still chosen by the elders! ”

As soon as these words came out, the entire living room fell silent.

This also surprised some elders with ghosts, and An Ying and Zhou Jin would easily give up their position as heads of the family.

The sixth elder Zhou Mian obviously supported Zhou Jin to continue the family business, and the more loyal clan elder was very unhappy after hearing this, "Mr. Li Shan, we are grateful for your protection of Jin'er's safe return to Qingyuan, but letting Jin'er give up the position of the head of the family is an internal matter of our family, and you are not an outsider to interfere." His face turned pale and he said coldly.

Ling Li smiled, and then said slowly: "As the saying goes, a teacher for one day, a father for life, since Jin'er's grandfather and father are no longer alive, his affairs are naturally decided by me, the master." To be honest, your Qingyuan Chamber of Commerce only has a net profit of a few hundred million a year, and it really didn't let me see it. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was speechless, and what they thought was a great benefit, people didn't pay attention to it at all, and regarded it as nothing......
