Chapter 41: Mo Yu makes a move
After saying goodbye to Xiao Yu, Mo Yu came to his cabin.
The grandfather in the house was also there, and he was looking sad at this time.
"Yu'er, you're here." Seeing Mo Yu's arrival, the old man also showed a smile on his face.
Seeing that the old man seemed to have something on his mind, Mo Yu seemed to have guessed something, and said, "Grandpa is worried about the family's recent business, right?" β
Hearing this, the old man also nodded, and sighed: "Recently, there has been a conflict between the family and the Galie family in business, and the profits have been lost by fifty or sixty percent, and even some servants' monthly salaries are almost unavailable. β
As the old housekeeper of the family, the old man undoubtedly has a great understanding of the family's economic situation, so he is also the most anxious.
Hearing the old man's sigh, Mo Yu also shook his head.
Originally, he didn't want to care about this matter, after all, if nothing else, Xiao Yan would take action and solve the matter perfectly.
But now he suddenly realized that he and the Xiao family were inseparable, not to mention that he had married the Xiao family, it was the grandfather of this body, and after decades of integration, he was no different from the Xiao family.
Thinking of this, Mo Yu also knew that he couldn't hide it anymore, even for the sake of the old man who was struggling in front of him.
"Grandpa, don't worry, I can solve this matter." The boy said lightly.
As soon as these words came out, the old man's old face was stunned, and then his cloudy old eyes flashed with a hint of surprise that was not easy to detect.
This grandson of his seems to have a lot of secrets.
β¦β¦
At this time, in the Xiao family's meeting hall, the elders and other high-ranking officials of the Xiao family were angry about the increasingly dismal family business.
After all, if this continues, all the markets of the Xiao family will be completely closed, and the Xiao family will also be reduced to a second-rate force.
"If only we could get an alchemist!" In the hall, I don't know who said this.
Hearing this, everyone present shook their heads helplessly, an alchemist, even if it is a first-grade alchemist, it is extremely difficult to invite.
Just when everyone was disappointed and had nothing to do, Steward Mo and Mo Yu walked in at some point.
"Hehe, patriarch, my grandson Yu'er has a way to solve the family's worries." The old butler led the young man straight in, and although the old man's voice was low, it sounded like thunder in the council room.
"What!"
Hearing the words of the old housekeeper, everyone in the Xiao family in the council hall at this time, from the patriarch and elders to the high-level family leaders, to the juniors of the Xiao family, all looked at the pair of grandchildren in surprise.
"Lao Mo, you can't talk nonsense about this matter!" Since the marriage of the two families, the relationship between the Great Elder has also become much closer, so he secretly advised.
Xiao Zhan also looked at Mo Yu with a cautious face, he didn't want to make a big deal out of his young man's youth.
In the corner of the hall, Xiao Yu also looked at the handsome young man in the field, her fiancΓ©, with a surprised expression.
When did he have such a skill?
Seeing everyone's suspicions, the old man was not angry, and took out a black extraordinary bead from his arms.
"This is ......" took the black bead from Steward Mo's hand, and the second elder in charge of the family business suddenly felt a little familiar, stroked his white beard, and asked tentatively: "This is the thunder fire bead that has been popular in Utan City recently?" β
Hearing this, Steward Mo nodded and said proudly: "It is the Thunder Fire Bead, and this bead is refined by my Sun Yu'er." β
"What!?"
Hearing this, everyone present changed color.
The Xiao family also paid a lot of attention to this thunder fire bead that came out of nowhere recently, but they never knew who spread it, but today they learned that it was Mo Yu who did it, how not to be shocked.
At this time, Mo Yu also stood up and said with a smile: "Some time ago, I met an old-timer, and that senior saw that I was talented and intelligent, so he taught me some refining methods, including this thunder and fire bead.
As long as I am given three days and enough materials, I can provide five hundred thunder fire beads for the family to solve the family's business worries. β
Hearing this, everyone in the Xiao family smiled happily, they had also heard of the prestige of this Thunder Fire Bead, and they had an excellent reputation in the mercenary circle of Utan City, and they were simply sought after.
Five hundred Thunder Fire Beads, according to the market price, that is 150,000 gold coins!
If Xiaojiafang City mastered this business, wouldn't the family's difficulties be solved.
Xiao Zhan also thought of this, and his original sad face disappeared, revealing a touch of ecstasy, and a pair of big hands patted Mo Yu's shoulder excitedly, and laughed: "Okay! Good! It is worthy of being the dragon of my Xiao family! β
Immediately, I didn't know what I thought, Xiao Zhan asked with some uneasiness, "Did that old gentleman leave an address or something?" My Xiao family sold the Thunder Fire Bead without his permission, is this okay? β
Hearing this, Mo Yu couldn't help but feel that Xiao Zhan was worthy of being the patriarch of the Xiao family, and he was indeed a thoughtful person, but how did he know that the mysterious old man was the young man in front of him.
Mo Yu shook his head with a smile and said, "Senior, his old man left after teaching me the art of refining, but before leaving, I was allowed to sell the refining items, and I was short of money a while ago, so I also refined some thunder fire beads for sale." β
Hearing this, Xiao Zhan nodded reassuringly, and then said with some regret: "That senior must be a highly accomplished refiner, if I can be a guest of the Xiao family for a while, it must also make my Xiao family shine." β
As soon as these words came out, the high-level Xiao family in the audience immediately felt sorry, the Xiao family who could be tortured by a first-grade alchemist was in pain, and if there was an excellent refiner in charge, I am afraid that the power of the Xiao family would be able to go further.
Immediately, everyone looked at Mo Yu with envy, he was able to get the guidance of a refiner, although he didn't know how deep this refiner's attainments were, but the skill he taught casually, he could forge thunder fire beads, and he was obviously an excellent refiner master.
Regardless of envy or regret, now with Mo Yu's move, the family's crisis is completely solved.
After all, the pills sold by the Galie family are just some low-level healing pills, and the Thunder Fire Bead is a good thing to save lives at critical moments, and those mercenaries probably know which is more important.
Just as the gloom in the hall passed away and the smile was open, a family guard hurriedly ran in and reported respectfully: "Patriarch, there is a black-robed man outside, saying that there are some cooperation matters that he wants to discuss with the patriarch in detail. β
Hearing this, Xiao Zhan and several elders were stunned, and then they didn't know what they thought, and hurriedly said, "Please!" β
Seeing Xiao Zhan and the three elders like this, everyone in the hall was a little stunned, only Mo Yu thought about something thoughtfully.
"Hehe, no need to invite, how is Patriarch Xiao lately? I came uninvited, old man. Xiao Zhan's voice had just fallen, and the old laughter came from outside the door.
As the voice came, a figure shrouded in a large black cloak crossed into the hall without hurrying into the hall in full view of everyone.
At the moment when the black-robed man entered the door, Mo Yu's eyebrows raised slightly, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The mysterious Yao Lao has appeared...
