Du Mansion, the main entrance.

Four guards dutifully guarded, keeping their eyes on the passers-by on the main street, and if they approached the slightest closer, they would be repulsed.

The main gate of Du Mansion is a rare atmosphere, not to mention anything else, just say that the two lifelike town house lions on both sides of the gate are not something that ordinary people can have.

This pair of lions is not carved from stone, but by combining several rare ores with the technique of refining a guò vessel, and the surface is gilded, echoing the golden gate, and its grandeur is needless to say.

The Du family monopolized nearly half of the equipment business of the entire Tianhuo Empire, and the family had a big business, which was not comparable to ordinary mansions.

Moreover, because of the relationship between Du Qing, the head of the Du family, even the royal family and people in the refining association will attach importance to the Du family.

It is no exaggeration to say that as long as the Du family stomps their feet slightly, an earthquake will occur in the entire Heavenly Fire Empire.

"Did you hear, the head of the family personally went to the Heavenly Fire Cliff the day before yesterday, and I don't know what good things I will bring back. ”

"At this time, the Tianhuo Cliff should be regarded as Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and all the masters from all walks of life are gathered there, and the competition will definitely be very fierce. ”

"We little people, let's not discuss this kind of thing that has nothing to do with us, let's talk about it practically!"

"Actually, you can make it clear. ”

"I heard that because of the refining ceremony, our Du family's business has increased by 30% compared to usual, and it is said that it is very likely that our monthly income will increase. ”

"This is a good feeling, it just so happens that during this time I saved money to get a ring, if I can really grow for a long time, I won't have to wait so long!"

Several guards were talking in whispers because they were idle at the moment.

At this moment, a figure appeared in their field of vision from afar, making them stunned.

"Hey, look. That person looks like our son!"

"Where is it, well, it's really quite similar, but it can't be our son-in-law, when did our son-in-law come back alone, and besides, look at the appearance of that man and wolf, how can it be compared with the demeanor of our son!"

"That's right, in this era, there are more people wearing the same clothes!"

"That's not right. If you take a closer look, that person seems to be really our son-in-law. ”

As the man who came from the wolf bèi got closer and closer, several of the guards all stared at them with wide eyes, indeed looking like their sons.

Du Ji ran back from the refining celebration in one go, and when he finally saw the door of his house, he was so excited that he almost cried.

"Finally home, finally safe!"

As soon as his spirit relaxed, Du Ji only felt that his whole body was about to fall apart, he had grown so big. I've never been so scared and tired as I am today.

"You dog minions, what are you still doing in a daze, why don't you hurry up and help my son in!"

With his hands on his knees, Du Ji shouted at the guards who were standing stupidly at the door.

"Ahh Childe, what's wrong with you!"

"Childe, are you alright?"

The four guards finally came to their senses and hurried down the steps. Left and right, he picked up Du Ji, who was about to fall.

"Childe, why are you so tired, do you want to take a break. Subordinate pour you a glass of water!"

A doorman looked Du Ji up and down, if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he couldn't imagine that this was their face-saving son.

"If you don't have time, help me find my father!"

Du Ji can't take a break, he wants to find his father, and then add fuel and vinegar to today's experience, and he must let his father take this evil breath for him.

"Okay, Childe, slow down. ”

Leaving two guards to continue guarding, Du Ji was helped into Du's mansion.

In an elegant courtyard, Du Yuanxiang sat on a stone chair in the gazebo, talking to the housekeeper about business.

"Master, this year's refining celebration has made our family earn a lot, among which the orders for equipment from foreign empires have increased by nearly fifty percent compared with previous years. ”

"Well, in this way, we are one step closer to our Du family's complete monopoly of the equipment business of the entire Tianhuo Empire. ”

"Master, this is the income and expenditure details of this month, you can take a look!"

The butler handed over a book of accounts framed with gold wire.

Du Yuanxiang stretched out his hand to take it and asked casually: "Recently, Du Ji hasn't caused any more trouble, right?"

"Back to the master, during this time, the son was very motivated, and the family property handed over to him was well organized, and the mining of the mine was also under his management, and the efficiency was nearly doubled. The butler said respectfully.

"It's still a bit like this, he's not too young anymore, and he's idle like that all day long, what kind of physique. If he can continue to persevere, give him some more family inheritance, and it's time for him to learn how to take care of it. Du Yuanxiang smiled faintly and flipped through the accounts in his hand.

"Yes!!"

The butler's expression was a little strange, and what he said just now was said with a clear conscience.

This Du Ji, where is the slightest bit of self-motivation, the family industry handed over to him, I haven't seen him take care of it seriously, all handed over to the people below to do, and finally managed the mining matters of the mine himself, but because he privately improved the progress of mining, those miners were miserable, and finally he forced a lot away.

It is no exaggeration to say that if the family property is handed over to such a second ancestor, it will definitely be ruined.

It's just that these words, the housekeeper can only think about it in his heart, so he won't be that bad guy!

"The head of the family went to the Heavenly Fire Cliff two days ago, but what news is there?" Du Yuanxiang asked again without raising his head.

"Not yet, but when the head of the family left, he specially instructed him not to send someone to Tianhuo Cliff to find him if there was nothing particularly important. ”

"This time the Heavenly Fire Cliff, presumably it will be a bloody storm again, and the refiners who died in it are not thousands but hundreds, hey, I hope the head of the family can return safely as soon as possible!" Du Yuanxiang had already finished reading the accounts in his hand, sighed, and looked up at the white clouds floating in the sky.

In the courtyard there were some precious flowers, some beautiful petals, which fell into the small pool next to the gazebo, and the fish in the pond showed their heads and chased those petals to play.

Du Yuanxiang moved his muscles and stood up.

"The master is a little tired, so his subordinates went down and asked someone to make a refreshing herbal tea. The butler was busy.

Du Yuanxiang waved his hand, signaling that the housekeeper could go down.

At this moment, an inopportune voice suddenly came from outside the courtyard.

"Father, you have to be the master of your son!"

Listening to the voice, it was very desolate, as if he had been greatly wronged.

Du Yuanxiang frowned, and asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"

The housekeeper, who had not yet left, also looked curiously in the direction of the courtyard gate.

There was not much time, and Du Ji limped in from the outside with the support of two guards.

Looking at his son, who was disheveled and had some messy hair, Du Yuanxiang's originally relaxed face immediately became gloomy at the moment.

"Father, you have to make decisions for your son, today my son will almost never see your old man again. Du Ji said very aggrieved, and his sad expression was very well performed.

Du Yuanxiang sat down from the beginning, forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and asked, "Say, what trouble have you caused again?"

"Father, you really don't blame me this time......" Du Ji began to say the words that had been agreed for a long time.

He hid the fact that he robbed other people's ores, but changed it to himself as a victim, and added fuel to the vinegar to describe how arrogant and domineering the young man was, and how he insulted the Du family, saying that his mouth was foaming.

Du Yuanxiang listened quietly, and it wasn't until Du Ji finished speaking that he asked, "Are you done?"

"En!" Du Ji nodded, and then added, "Father, you quickly bring someone to arrest that kid back, I must kill him alive!"

"Bump!"

Who knows, Du Yuanxiang slapped the stone table with a frosty face, and with great force, he almost smashed the table.

Du Jin was startled and looked at his father in confusion.

"Fart, you can make up such nonsense, are you in the water in your brain, or are you underestimating my IQ!" Du Yuanxiang was very angry.

"Father, what I said is true!"

Du Ji felt very aggrieved, it was rare for him to tell the truth this time, except for exaggerating some additional details, he didn't make anything up.

"Someone killed someone at the refining festival? Hmph, you can also make it up, what is the place of the refining festival, except for you who don't take it seriously, no refiner has dared to make trouble there, and you actually said that someone killed your guard there, and the other party is just a teenager......"

"Father, what I said is true, if you don't believe it, you can go and check, if he hadn't taken out the family property himself and made an IOU to that kid, he would have really killed me. That guy is a demon, father, you have to believe me!" Du Ji argued.

"What, what did you just say about the family business?"

Du Yuanxiang was stunned for a moment and hurriedly asked.

Seeing his father glaring at him with a pair of eyes that wanted to devour him alive, Du Ji's heart became empty for no reason, and he whispered: "I gave it all to that guy, including thirty-six shops, seventeen ore warehouses, and those mines that I was asked to manage. ”

"What?" Du Yuanxiang's nose was about to be crooked.

"Father, listen to me, if I don't do this, I won't be able to come back, but don't worry, father, there is still a chance to make amends, as long as that kid is caught, these properties will come back to us. Du said excitedly.

Du Yuanxiang's chest rose and fell violently, he was already about to vomit blood, how could he have such a loser!

"Call me the ghost hand, I'm going to ask him personally!"

Du Yuanxiang still didn't believe what his son said, and was ready to call the right-hand man sent to his son's side to ask.

"The ghost hand can't come anymore, he's been killed by that kid, and his body is still lying on the refining ceremony. "Du excited, weak mosquito sound.

"What are you talking about?" Du Yuanxiang's eyes were about to pop out. (To be continued......)
