Volume 1 The Eagle Spreads Its Wings Chapter 28 Borrowing Money
Wearing a cloak, he appeared early in the morning in a noisy market in the city of Chenling.
This is the territory of the Xiao family, which belongs to the four major families of Zhan Ling City.
Although he was suppressed by the Yan family everywhere, the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, and in Zhanling City, the Xiao family still had a certain amount of power.
Coming to the door of an arms shop, he poked his head in. After seeing the slightly emaciated figure, he smiled slightly and walked in.
"Xiao Yan, are you doing well during this time?" Seeing that Xiao Yan was busy and didn't notice his presence, he took off the hat of his cloak and reached out to put his hand on his friend's shoulder.
Xiao Yan, who was sweating profusely and was busy with a lot of sweat, heard the voice and looked back, a bright smile immediately appeared on his thin face, he turned around and clenched his fist and slammed it on Youkuang's chest a few times.
"It turned out to be you kid, I haven't seen you for a few days, and I thought that the world had evaporated after you became famous. β
Xiao Yan and Youkuang met by chance, since he was a child, he has a good meridian, since he was a child, he is a piece of jade held by the family in the palm of his hand, and attaches great importance to it, but a few years ago, due to unknown reasons, his cultivation progress began to become extremely slow, although he has reached the age of twenty this year, Wu Xi has stayed in the martial arts star for seven years, and the two who are sympathetic to each other have countless common topics as soon as they meet, although one is the eldest grandson of the Xiao family, and the other is an alien abandoned by the family, and the identity is very different, but it still can't prevent the two from becoming bosom friends who talk about everythingγ
"Famous?"
You Kuang tilted his head, feeling a little puzzled by Xiao Yan's words.
"Yes, you don't know yet, a few days ago, your refining question and answer against Yan Song's uncle and nephew has already spread throughout the entire Fil Ling City, and now you have become a popular figure, everyone's attitude towards you feels as if they are not as disgusted as before, I didn't expect you kid to hide it deeply. β
"There is such a thing. β
Yu Kuang scratched his head, but he didn't care much, anyway, from before to now, he has always been a man of the wind with human blood, and he is not bad at this thing, "By the way, I came to you today for something I want to ask you for help." β
"It's all brothers, just say anything about it, Xiao Yan will definitely help me if I can. Xiao Yan stretched out his hand and patted Youkuang's shoulder, and said generously.
His heart was warm, but he was not only a little emotional, except for Xiaolan, the so-called relatives of the You Clan couldn't even compare to Xiao Yan or Xiao Lei when they treated him.
"Well, then I'll be blunt. β
Yu Kuang nodded gratefully, "I will need seven clovers very much in the near future, and I also need to buy some medicinal herbs, so I want to borrow a hundred gold coins from you, and when I have money in the future, I will find a chance to double it for you." β
"Horse Clover, what do you want that thing for, aren't you ......" Xiao Yan's face was full of doubt.
He didn't know that Yu Kuang had successfully condensed the crystal, and had already raised his cultivation to the height of a five-star martial artist.
However, in the next second, he seemed to suddenly realize, his eyes gradually widened, and an ecstasy quickly emerged, "Could it be ...... , don't you ......"
It seems that his good brother, the days of suffering are finally coming to an end.
He smiled and nodded at him.
"Good, great, great, hahaha......"
Stretching out his hand and patting Yu Kuang's shoulder, Xiao Yan at this time ignored the strange eyes of passers-by outside the store, and laughed heartily, "I knew that my brother would not live his life like this." β
Turning around excitedly, Xiao Yan beckoned to a middle-aged man at the counter, "Pan Bao, go in and get two hundred gold coins out, my brother wants to use it." β
"Well, a hundred is enough, and you can't use as many as two hundred. When he heard this, he quickly said out loud.
"You're polite with me. Xiao Yan turned his head and glanced at me, "Don't think I'm a brother." β
Hearing Xiao Yan say this, the seclusion could only be stopped, but in his heart, the warm current was surging, constantly impacting.
This is the real brother!
"What are you doing, let's go. Seeing that Pan Bao was still standing motionless at the counter, Xiao Yan hurriedly urged again.
"I'm sorry eldest young master, the parents have explained, without the order of the elder level or the seventh young master, no one is allowed to use the family's money. Pan Bao bowed his head to Xiao Yan and said, "Please forgive Pan Bao for not being able to follow the order of the eldest young master." β
"I am the eldest grandson, and I have the right to dispose of any Xiao family's property with no more than one thousand gold coins!" Xiao Yan roared angrily when he heard this.
"Young Master, please don't be embarrassed, this matter is really small. β
Although Pan Bao's words sounded respectful to Xiao Yan, Yu Kuang could sense the trace of contempt in his eyes.
Xiao Yan is in the Xiao family, and he can't even command a lowly-level subordinate!
Because of that incident, although Xiao Yan is the eldest grandson of the lineage, his status has declined sharply, which is known, but he didn't expect that he would have fallen to such a point in just a few days, which is really a bit contrary to common sense.
Could it be that something has happened to the Xiao family in the past few days?
His fists were clenched, and Xiao Yan was furious at this time. He was not angry with Pan Leopard, but angry with himself, and he couldn't even help his brother with this favor.
His eyes looked at the secluded wilderness, and Xiao Yan's heart was full of guilt.
"Pan Bao, you better go and get it, don't let an outsider see the joke. At this moment, a young voice suddenly came from the back of the store, and then a young man of the same age as Yu Kuang walked out from behind.
Xiao Peng, Xiao Yan's half-brother, among the descendants of the Xiao family, also belongs to the lineage, this person is the same age as Youkuang, but his cultivation has already broken through to the Seven Stars of Martial Arts. In the gradually declining Xiao family, this qualification is undoubtedly like a ray of light, bringing a trace of expectation and hope to the entire family.
In contrast, as the eldest grandson of the lineage, Xiao Yan, who was originally the first in line to the head of the family, was inevitably gloomy in front of him, and for this reason, the struggle within the Xiao family has never been interrupted.
Xiao Yan is not a person who does not know the general situation, he also knows that he is by no means a good candidate to take over the position of the head of the family, a few days later, the Xiao family held a ceremony to save the position of the head of the family, he had already decided to announce at that time, in a timely manner, to give up the storage position, and this Xiao Peng is undoubtedly the best candidate to take over the storage position.
As soon as he saw Xiao Peng, Pan Bao immediately nodded with a sycophantic face, "Seventh Young Master, you are here, okay, the little one will go and get it." β
Pan Leopard's attitude and obedience to orders between the two formed a strong contrast.
Glancing at Xiao Yan, Xiao Peng had obvious indifference in his eyes, but he still had a seemingly kind smile on his face.
"Brother Xiao Yan, people don't know how to be polite, and I hope that Big Brother won't be surprised. β
Hearing this, the brows of the Yu Kuang, who had been standing quietly beside him, furrowed slightly.
This sounds, how can it be like talking to an outsider, although he is a big brother, but in essence, he has already classified Pan Bao as his subordinate, and Xiao Yan has become an outsider who has no right to speak.
How could Xiao Yan not understand the meaning of this, but in this situation, he really had no way to say anything, so he could only nod his head and show a stiff smile, "It's okay, as long as things are done, the process doesn't matter." β
The smile on Xiao Peng's face became even brighter at the moment.
Yes, he can trample on Xiao Yan whenever he wants, even in front of outsiders. What about the eldest grandson, what about the heirs of the head of the family, the descendants of the Xiao family, I Xiao Peng has the final say, you Xiao Yan, what is it!
"Hehe, if I'm not mistaken, in a few days, your Xiao family will hold a ceremony to store the position of the head of the family, right?"
chuckled twice, and Yu Kuang reached out and patted Xiao Yan's shoulder, "When the time comes, I don't know if my brother can give me a face to participate, this kind of good day, I want to be present to celebrate my brother in person, if you take over the Xiao family in the future, maybe you can become the head of Zhan Lingcheng." β
Xiao Yan was stunned.
Strange, didn't Yu Kuang already know that he was going to give way?
After turning his head and seeing the instantly stiff smile on Xiao Peng's face, Xiao Yan instantly understood.
It turns out that Yu Kuang is earning back face for himself!
