"Squeak-" Qin Fan walked all the way back to his yard, and then pushed the door open. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info he is actually a very home-loving person, back here he suddenly seems to be more energetic, seeing old scenes and old things, but also will recall a lot of things.

He still remembered that on the day he left this time, Qin Li was waiting here early, and as soon as he opened the door, he saw her.

Thinking of the person in his heart, he couldn't help but smile and feel a little warm.

It's just a pity that I can't see her when I come back this time.

"I don't know where my sister has gone, and what happened now?" Qin Fan groaned in his heart, pushed open the door, walked back to his room, and found that everything was still the same as when he left, and the furniture was not much dust, so someone should have been cleaning it for a long time.

I remember that when refining the Fire Source Demon Seed, the things in the entire room were basically burned, and in the end, Qin Li personally selected some furniture to rearrange the room for him.

Now the room is elegantly furnished and somewhat cozy, and he likes the taste of home.

As soon as he returned to the room and looked around, Qin Fan heard faint footsteps outside, as if someone was walking towards him.

"Could it be that my sister is back?" Qin Fan couldn't help but be overjoyed.

"Young Master, are you back?" But then, an old voice came, obviously not Qin Li.

"Yes, Fauber. Qin Fan replied openly, and at the same time couldn't help but feel slightly disappointed.

The person who came was Qin Fu, an old servant who had stayed in the Qin family for decades, and usually only waited for Qin Li and Qin Fan, so he called Qin Fan a young master, and everyone else would add his name in front of him. Qin Fan estimated that he did the usual cleaning of this room.

"Young Master, you're finally back. Soon Qin Fu also walked into the room, this old servant also looked a little older than before, but seeing Qin Fan still felt very excited, as if he was rejuvenated. Now that Qin Fan has achieved such an achievement, as a servant who at least takes care of him, Qin Fu also feels very lucky.

"It's been a hard time. Qin Fan smiled slightly.

"Hehe, this place has always been taken care of by the young lady herself, and later after the young lady went out, she handed over the old servant to take care of it. Qin Fu smiled and said, "Miss also said that if you want the young master to feel at home when you come back, these quilts are clean, and the young master can use them casually." ”

"My sister is still so thoughtful. Qin Fan also smiled, walked around the room, and then asked, "How has my father been recently?"

"The master's breath has not been very good lately. Qin Fu thought for a moment and sighed softly, "Since the young lady left the family, the old man has been working a lot harder, on the one hand, because of the frequent problems in the business of the clan, and on the other hand, the old man is very upset because he has not been able to break through to the realm of the spirit martial artist for a long time, and the old servant often finds that he has not rested until late...... Young Master, you also know, this time our Nanfeng Qin family can participate in the assessment of the high-grade true martial arts family, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but because we need a spirit martial artist, the pressure on the master is also very great......"

"Fubo, don't worry, now that I'm back, my father doesn't have to work so hard, I will solve these things. Qin Fan saw that Qin Fu also looked worried, so he smiled slightly and comforted him and said.

"The young master's ability is naturally believed by the old servant...... But to break through to the spirit martial master, you can only rely on the master, but if the young master can help deal with the family affairs and let the master cultivate wholeheartedly, it will be much better. Hearing Qin Fan say this, Qin Fu's brows stretched a little and said. He was now convinced of Qin Fan's ability, but he didn't think about the fact that Qin Fan would become a spirit martial artist.

"Hehe, where is my father now? I haven't been to see him since I came back. Qin Fan smiled, and didn't say anything, but just asked.

"Now the lord should still be in the clan affairs house with a few elders, and recently I seem to have heard that the family's business has gone wrong again, so the lord and a few elders are still doing business so late. Qin Fu thought for a while and said.

"Then I'll go to the clan house now and see if there's anything I can do to help. Qin Fan smiled and said, because in the past two years, Qin Li has been in charge of the clan affairs house, and now that she leaves, these elders should not be able to adapt for a while.

But at the same time, it also reflects Qin Li's shrewdness and ability.

"Young master, he has really grown up, and he can already take charge on his own. Qin Fu looked at Qin Fan's departing figure and muttered. In the conversation with Qin Fan just now, he found that the latter had a faint confidence in his words, and he already seemed mature and steady.

......

A house of the Qin family in Nanfeng, surrounded by green trees, delicate and elegant and slightly remote. Such a mansion does not seem to have much special features among the many courtyards, but it is the clan courtyard in charge of most of the affairs of the Qin family.

At this time, Qin Hongzheng, the head of the Nanfeng Qin family, was discussing clan affairs with several elders around a round table, and had just discussed the matter of the recent decline in the profits of the family business.

Qin Hong also felt heavy at this time, and now the family's promotion assessment was imminent, but there were many problems in the family business, which made him feel a little physically and mentally tired.

"It would be nice if Li'er was here at this time. He couldn't help but think of Qin Li, everything had gone smoothly in the hands of the clan council over the years, and the whole clan was very satisfied with it. But as soon as she left the family, many places were in chaos, and at this time, she was oppressed by many external forces, which made the family's business continue to decline.

"Patriarch, now that all the suppliers of elixir materials have offered us high prices, in my opinion, we should also increase the price of refining medicines, otherwise if this continues, we will lose money. At this time, the third elder spoke loudly.

"Although the quality of our alchemy is getting better and better, we are geared towards risk-takers, and if we raise the price again, it may cause a backlash. The fourth elder said in a loud voice, "I think we might as well set up a medicine collection team in the family to collect medicine by ourselves." ”

"There are several kinds of refining medicine that can only be grown in the Demon Beast Mountain Range, and they can't be planted, if you let the clan set up a medicine collection team to go, I'm afraid it's still too dangerous, and we need a large amount, we must supply it for a long time, and it is difficult for our clan to separate so many people. But the Third Elder said.

"Are those elixir material suppliers really unwilling to back down?" At this time, Qin Hong frowned and asked.

"This time, it is clear that the Qianjing Qin family is putting pressure on us through them, how dare they offend this true martial family. The second elder said in a deep voice at this time.

"Then we can't have direct contact with those adventure groups who are responsible for collecting medicines?" Qin Hong continued to ask.

"These adventure groups are generally only in contact with suppliers, and we don't know which team it is, you must know that not every adventure group has a team that is proficient in medicine collection, and if you want to train a medicine collection team, it will not be possible in a few years. The Great Elder said.

"This Qianjing Qin family is really hateful, and it has forced away all the suppliers we cooperated with back then! It is clear that he wants to suppress our Nanfeng Qin family and prevent our Nanfeng Qin family from becoming a high-grade Zhenwu family. At this time, the grumpy Fifth Elder couldn't help but slap the table and said, "I think we might as well appeal directly to the True Martial Temple!"

"Old Five, don't be naïve, now we are just a small Nine Rank True Martial Family, why would the True Martial Temple leave us? And we have no evidence at all that this matter was deliberately done by the Qianjing Qin Family. The fourth elder frowned and said.

"Our Nanfeng Qin family has achieved the first pilgrimage, for Qin Fan's sake, I think this True Martial Temple has to be taken care of. The Fifth Elder said unconvinced.

"By the way, now we may be able to take advantage of Qin Fan's nephew's fame......" At this time, when the second elder heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and said, "Now Qin Fan's nephew's name is basically known in the entire Great Qianguo, and we all know that he has a bright future in the future, I want to use this to communicate with those suppliers well, maybe there are some turnarounds......"

"Yes, they can not give us the face of the Nanfeng Qin family, but they have to give the first face of this pilgrimage, right? With the potential of Qin Fan's nephew, who said that it is impossible to become a Martial Venerable Martial Saint in the future? Xiao is interested, it should be no problem to let these suppliers secretly sell some elixirs to us......" The other elders also echoed at this time.

"Patriarch, what do you think about this matter?" the Great Elder turned to Qin Hong and asked, after all, the decision was still in Qin Hong's hands.

"I just don't know if this matter will cause Xiao Fan some bad reputation. Qin Hong was a little worried, "Let's ask Xiao Fan what he means first...... Listening to the report from Bluestone Town, he has appeared there before, and it is estimated that he will return to the family soon. ”

"But, patriarch ......," the five elders stopped talking.

"How is the patriarch's cultivation lately? Is there any hope of breaking through to the spirit martial master before the pilgrimage comes? If the patriarch can become a spirit martial master, then we will become a high-grade true martial artist, which can be regarded as more bargaining chips. The Fourth Elder couldn't help but ask.

In fact, no one has mentioned this matter for a long time, because they are worried that it will disturb Qin Hong's breakthrough state of mind. But at this time, seeing that day was coming soon, everyone still couldn't help it.

"This time, I'm sorry for the Qin family......" Qin Hong shook his head bitterly when he heard the question of the four elders.

"In fact, the patriarch doesn't need to blame himself, this opportunity was originally won back by Qin Fan's nephew, and the documents of the True Martial Arts Temple also said that even if it is not successful this time, after thirty years, our Qin family can directly participate in the pilgrimage as a high-grade Zhenwu family, and when the time comes, if Baopin succeeds, he can also become a high-grade Zhenwu family. When the Great Elder heard the Fourth Elder mention it, he was actually already frowning, and then hurriedly comforted Qin Hong, not letting him cause pressure, otherwise it would be even more difficult to break through.

It's just that if you wait another thirty years, to be honest, the whole family will not be reconciled.

So, for a moment, there was silence again in the clan house.

"Come in. After a while, Qin Hong found that Qin Meng, the captain of the Qin family's guard who was in charge of guarding outside the door, seemed to have something to report, so he said in a loud voice.

"Report to the patriarch and the elders, Young Master Qin Fan has returned, and now he requests to enter the clan affairs court, I don't know if it is approved. After receiving the instructions, Qin Meng walked in and said.
