Chapter 150: Development Plan (Three Watches)
After dealing with the affairs of the Tianmao Commercial Bank in Tiandu City, it was already afternoon for Xiao Ran and the others to return to the Xiao family in Tianwu City.
Walking on the street, everyone's emotions were particularly excited, and countless people were talking, and the topic of discussion had shifted from the unknown Xiao Ran to the upcoming General Zhenyuan.
Tomorrow, Liu Kui, the general of this town, will come.
Liu Kui is a legendary figure.
Thirty years ago, he went from an unknown leading general who made great achievements against millions of demonic beasts to become one of the top ten generals of the Wolong Empire, and his status was directly ranked among the top five, and his influence was even more terrifying.
Over the years, almost all of the countless demonic beast attacks were suppressed by Liu Kui with troops, so among countless civilians, Liu Kui's reputation was also the highest.
And tomorrow, this legendary figure will be here, which can't help but make many people reverie, of course, some people are worried that there is going to be a beast tide here, otherwise how could the general come?
For these people's statements, Xiao Ran naturally laughed and passed, Tianwu City, it will take more than ten years before the next beast tide will break out, and it is also at that time that countless unknown masters have become famous, among which Ouyang Fei and others have become well-known top masters.
Completely abandoning the many discussions in his ears, Xiao Ran and the others entered the Xiao family directly.
City Lord's Mansion, on the road of a small courtyard, a group of teenagers were gathering together to discuss something, and at this moment, Xiao Ran slowly walked in from outside.
Nodding and smiling at the crowd, Xiao Ran prepared to walk towards the study where his father's office was.
"Xiao Ran!"
When passing by the crowd, a voice suddenly stopped Xiao Ran, the voice was a little weak, Xiao Ran was stunned, paused and looked over there.
Over there. There are more than a dozen teenagers, many of whom are teenagers of the same age as Xiao Ran, and it is Xiao Feng, who is two years older than Xiao Ran.
At this time, Xiao Feng showed an embarrassed look on his face, looking at Xiao Ran, with an unnatural look on his face, just now, it was Xiao Ran who he called.
"Cousin Xiao Feng, what's wrong?, is there something wrong with me?" Xiao Ran looked at Xiao Feng with a calm gaze. Laugh softly.
"Uh, that, I want to ask you a question, I've been practicing a set of swordsmanship recently, but I've encountered some problems, can I ask you?" After Xiao Feng finished speaking, he glanced at Xiao Ran with a weak heart, and his face turned slightly pale.
Xiao Ran was stunned and couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
Seeing that Xiao Ran didn't speak. Xiao Feng, who was on the side, lowered his head even harder, and his fingers were clenched even deeper.
"Well, yes, it's not just you. If you encounter any trouble in the future, you can come to me at any time as long as I am free, after all. We're all surnamed Xiao, aren't we?" Xiao Ran said with a smile as he looked at everyone.
"Our surname is Xiao?" Xiao Feng silently repeated this sentence, with a look of shame on his face. After a long time, he still raised his head and said to Xiao Ran: "Thank you, cousin Xiao Ran, then I will go over to look for you later, you just came back, let's go see my uncle and them first, by the way, Tianlao can already get out of bed and walk around!" Xiao Feng smiled.
"Well, okay!" Xiao Ran smiled and nodded, paused, and then turned around and left with Wu Zhi and the others.
Looking at the back of Xiao Ran and the others leaving, the faces of the group of people behind him were a little decadent and ashamed, among these people, there were many people who secretly cursed Xiao Ran, and even harmed him, but now that Xiao Ran has gained power, he still treats them like this, and the gap between the two makes them feel extremely ashamed.
"You go back first, I'll go to my father first, I'll look for you if there's something, you should hurry up and cultivate, and soon after, I'm going to leave again, if your cultivation is not enough, I won't take a few of you there!" When passing by Xiao Ran's small courtyard, Xiao Ran suddenly turned to a few people behind him.
"Yes!" Several people showed excitement in their eyes, and then turned to leave, looking at the backs of several people leaving, Xiao Ran's eyes showed a look of thought, as for how they cultivated, Xiao Ran was not worried, their cultivation qualifications were all excellent, and with Xiao Ran's large number of pills and Tuxuan crystal, the cultivation speed was still okay.
After thinking about it, Xiao Ran said to Xiao Huang hanging around his neck: "Xiao Huang, you should go back first, I have been holding you, I am also tired, I will go to see my parents now, okay?"
The corners of Xiao Huang's mouth suddenly curled, a little unhappy, but he still nodded, jumped off Xiao Ran's body directly, and walked towards the small courtyard without looking back.
Seeing Xiao Huang walk in, Xiao Ran smiled and nodded, turned around and prepared to leave.
"Young Master, you're back!" the old, sickly voice suddenly sounded.
Xiao Ran looked at the visitor and laughed softly: "God, how do you feel injured now?"
"Ahem, it's okay, it's basically the same, after a few days of recuperation, you should be able to fully recover!" Tian Lao moved his arm slightly, turned around and walked towards Xiao Ran.
"Well, that's good, by the way, God, do you have something to do with me?" Xiao Ran said suspiciously.
Tianlao groaned, as if he was thinking about something, and after staring at Xiao Ran for a few moments, he said, "I think, I should know where Ling'er was taken!"
"What? You say you know? What the hell is going on?" Xiao Ran's eyes lit up suddenly, staring at Tian Lao and asking, with a hint of urgency in his tone, his eyes were slightly red.
Tianlao understood Xiao Ran's anxiety, and he didn't sell it, and whispered to Xiao Ran: "When I stood opposite that person, that person only said a few simple words, asking Ling'er, but it was only these few words, betraying this person's identity!"
"Oh, how do you say this?" Xiao Ran looked surprised, looked at the old man and said in a deep voice, after a short moment, Xiao Ran had already suppressed the restlessness in his heart, after all, the heart of the former sword god was not a joke.
"The accent of that person's speech belongs to Wolong City in the Wolong Continent, that is, the capital of the Wolong Continent, when I was a child, I was fortunate enough to travel with my master, so I still remember the accent of the person who spoke there, but I can't be sure if that person is from Wolong City!" I have been thinking about these words for a long time.
After listening to Tian Lao's words, Xiao Ran nodded thoughtfully, how big the Wolong Continent is, and the living habits of the population in various places are even different, and the tone is naturally slightly surprised, Tian Lao can hear it.
Moreover, after Tian Lao said this, Xiao Ran suddenly sounded some things that happened in his previous life.
In her previous life, after Ling'er died in the family. The corpse mysteriously disappeared, and soon after, a behemoth in Wolong City continued to deal with the Wang family, so Xiao Ran was able to survive in his previous life.
But Xiao Ran didn't know it at that time, and until now, Xiao Ran didn't know what kind of force it was, and few outsiders knew. I'm afraid only the Wang family, who is the person concerned, knows.
And in this life, after Ling'er's body broke out again, he was picked up, and I am afraid that he will not be able to get rid of that force.
Come to think of this. Xiao Ran couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, and he was even more sure that Ling'er would not be in any danger at this time.
"That person should have come out of Wolong City, okay. God, you'd better recover quickly, I'll leave the family after a while. The family still depends on you to take care of it!" Xiao Ran smiled.
"Are you going to leave again, just leave it to me by the family, and I'll take care of it desperately!" Tian Lao looked at Xiao Ran and said firmly.
"Well, let's go, let's go to my father's side together, and then have dinner together!" After the words fell, Xiao Ran took Tianlao and walked towards Xiao Zhan's study.
At this time, Xiao Zhan was writing the development plan under the approver, and the whole person was even more full of vigorous vitality, and, just yesterday, the cultivation that had plagued him for many years finally broke through again, and now, he has reached the fourth-level sword king cultivation, and it is still steadily improving, or it will take less than half a month to break through to the fifth-level sword king, and the mood is not bad.
"Dad, I'm still busy!" The door didn't close, Xiao Ran walked in directly, and at a glance saw Xiao Zhan sitting on the table and looking at something.
"Master of the house!" said Tian Lao walked in and smiled slightly.
"Hehe, Ran'er, Tianlao, you're here!" Xiao Zhan smiled and said, "The family is developing and expanding, but if you say Tiandu City, it is not easy to handle, many forces over there are almost all our enemies, but Tianwu City can't develop anymore, so I'm thinking of a way!"
Hearing Xiao Zhan's words, Xiao Ran had a smile on his face, and then said loudly: "Dad, you can send people to Tiandu City to develop with confidence, I think, now some people don't dare to touch the Xiao family anymore, as for those enemies before, it's good that I didn't pursue them!" Xiao Ran muttered.
If it weren't for the fact that the Xiao family was too weak to make enemies everywhere, Xiao Ran would have directly eliminated those families.
And the last time he targeted the Xiao family, there were too many people, and it was inconvenient to do it, so Xiao Ran has been waiting for an opportunity, waiting for an opportunity that does not have to offend too many people and can deter everyone, as long as the opportunity comes, Xiao Ran will ruthlessly rectify the forces that plundered the property and resources of the Xiao family in the first place.
Of course, for Wei Feng, the city lord of Tiandu City, Xiao Ran didn't have much hope, it was good if he wasn't a burden.
When Xiao Zhan heard Xiao Ran say this, his frowning brows finally slowly relaxed, the son in front of him was getting more and more promising, not only being able to take charge of himself, but also supporting a family.
"General Zhenyuan is coming tomorrow, as the city lord, we must go to meet him, if it is convenient tomorrow, you can also go with me!" Xiao Zhan thought for a moment and said to Xiao Ran.
"En!" Xiao Ran and Tian Lao both nodded slightly, for General Zhenyuan, most people would be in awe, and it was understandable to ask them to pick up the generals who were loved by the people.
Later, after talking about some trivial matters and the family's development plan, Xiao Zhan took Xiao Ran and Tianlao back to his courtyard.
Passing by the room where Ling'er was, Xiao Zhan turned his head frequently, and Xiao Ran, who looked at it, couldn't help but feel a little pain in his heart, and in his eyes, he firmly believed that he must go to Ling'er as soon as possible.
The atmosphere of the group was a little heavy and returned to Xiao Zhan's room, in the room, Xiao's mother Murong Wan was embroidering, and when she saw Xiao Zhan leading Xiao Ran and Tianlao and others in, a smile immediately appeared on her face.
After talking for a while, they got up and went to prepare dinner, while Xiao Ran and the others continued to discuss the future development of the Xiao family in the room.
In less than an hour, Xiao's mother came over with the maid with seven or eight delicate hot dishes.
"Let's eat first, don't be too tired!" Murong Wan looked at Xiao Ran's eyes full of doting, she had already doted on Xiao Ran, but now Xiao Ran was even more sensible and happy.
"Alright, let's eat!" Xiao Zhan chuckled softly.
The family, including Tian Lao, sat around the dinner table and had a delicious meal, and Xiao Ran, who had not eaten the food at home for two days, was even more appetizing.
The corners of Murong Wan's mouth on the side couldn't close, and even Xiao Zhan, who rarely smiled, had a happy smile on his face.
Feeling the atmosphere full of happiness, Xiao Ran was more determined to protect his family, and he was more convinced of his future goals......!
