Chapter 382: Apology
Old Man Dong also looked worried now, "From the current point of view, the biggest possibility is that it is in the Penglai Alchemy.First, it may fall off in the middle of the fight, after all, Huang Arc was injured like this at the time, and when his life was threatened, he couldn't take care of his own precepts; ”
Dong Fang's face became more and more sad, "Then, what should we do? Even if we know that we are in their place, as soon as we go to ask for it, won't we immediately stand on the disadvantage? In this way, if it spreads, the confrontation between a big family of our Dong family and a small shop like a small shop like the Penglai Alchemy will become a defeat for us on all fronts." Not only did he not squeeze him in business, but in the end, he also lost treasures and important alchemists. ”
Old Man Dong stared at Dong Fang, "I said, can you look at it bigger? Is it important to lose face, or is it important to lose treasures? If it is really the Red Fire Flowing Gold Essence in the Penglai Alchemy Shop, even if we apologize and pay compensation, as long as they are willing to pay it back, we can consider it! All we want is a ring, just make up a reason, and we can say how important it is, please return it." They didn't know the origin of the Red Fire Flowing Gold Essence, and maybe there was a chance. ”
After Old Man Dong finished speaking, he sighed, "However, if it really falls into their hands, if you want to come back, the chances are slim." What alchemists are best at is treasure reading. ”
Dong Fang was scolded by his father a few more words, but he was not angry, "Then, according to my father's will?"
Old Man Dong let out a long sigh, "Go to the Penglai Alchemy Institute immediately, apologize, and ask about Huang Arc's acceptance of the ring!"
The total number of people from the Dong family who went to the Penglai Alchemy was not large, including the old man Dong and Dong Fang, there were only seven people in total, and there were no guards, all of them were relevant commercial leaders. In order to prevent misunderstanding by friends, several people also deliberately sent someone to deliver the news before they came to visit.
Of course, they were anxious and did not wait for the messenger to return, and they had already set off. Halfway through, they already knew that the owner of the Penglai Alchemy had left not long after breakfast, and it was not clear where he was going.
At this point, Dong Fang suspected that Wan Peng was deliberately avoiding them, but Old Man Dong was relatively calm, insisting that he would go to the Penglai Alchemy Institute anyway. Within a moment, several people had already arrived at the gate of the Penglai Alchemy, although the door was still open, but there was a sign on the side that said "temporarily closed".
Old Man Dong looked inward, saw that there was no obvious refusal of customers, crossed the threshold, and said loudly, "In Xia Dong Qingchun, I came to visit the boss of Penglai Alchemy Institute today, and I hope that the boss will come out to see him." ”
"Our boss is not there. Xie Ting came from the other side and stood in front of Old Man Dong generously, "I don't know that Old Dong is coming, and I am not welcome." Someone came to report the news, I have already explained that my boss has something to go out today, it may be that you have gone wrong, so I hope Dong Lao will forgive me. ”
Old Man Dong smiled, "Where, where, we met the messenger, but because the stakes are so high, we still want to come here to meet the boss as soon as possible." I don't know what to call this girl?"
Xie Ting also smiled slightly, "The junior is surnamed Xie." If Dong Lao has any orders, you can just tell me, and I can convey them to our boss. ”
Old Man Dong waved his hand, "Don't dare to command, the girl is looking down on my old man." Actually, we're here today specifically for last night's events. ”
"Oh?" Xie Ting didn't say anything. Before Wan Peng left, he had already told her that if the Dong family made any moves, he would wait and see what happened. If it threatens their safety, you Shui Qing will act when he should act, and he doesn't have to worry too much.
Old Man Dong sighed heavily, "Alas. I'm ashamed to say it. Last night, under my dog Dong Fang, there was a cultivator named Huang Arc, who regarded himself as high, and recently heard that the boss of the alchemy was outstanding, and he was unconvinced, and wanted to visit the alchemy at night, and the specific purpose was not clear. It's a pity that it was too late for the dog to get the news, and Huang Arc went to your place, which caused a lot of trouble to your place, and we are here to apologize to you today. ”
After that, he turned to Dong Fang, "Fang'er, this matter is directly related to your lack of strict requirements for your subordinates and lack of discipline, so don't make amends to Miss Xie as soon as possible." ”
Dong Fang was a hundred unwilling in his heart. Just now, Old Man Dong spoke, put his position so low, and now he has put all the responsibility on himself, and he feels even more aggrieved and angry. However, his son couldn't help but listen to what his father said, and when he thought of the red fire flowing gold essence, he had to drop his face, took two steps forward, saluted Xie Ting, and said, "This matter is ours, and I hope that Miss Xie and your boss don't care about the villain, don't take it to heart." If the yellow arc has caused any loss to your shop, we will compensate you in full. ”
Xie Ting was also quite surprised by the Dong family's attitude. She is keenly aware that there must be a reason why the Dong family is so low and takes all the responsibility. It's just that Wan Peng is not here now, and there are some things that she can't say. "Old Dong, Young Master Dong, you are polite. Our friends come to the alchemy office, which is just a small organization that collects anecdotes, and there may have been many places that offended the Dong family before, how can we accept such an apology. ”
Xie Ting actually said it very objectively, but in the Dong family, it was not so pleasant. Obviously, Xie Ting put herself in an advantageous position, the Dong family said what happened last night, but Xie Ting said what happened before, which made Dong Fang even more unhappy.
"Miss Xie doesn't seem to want to accept my reparation?" Dong Fang raised his head, and anger grew in his eyes.
Xie Ting smiled slightly, "Young Master Dong misunderstood. Zai Xia is not the owner of our store, he was not actually at the scene last night, and it doesn't matter if he speaks now, whether he accepts it, or whether he has other inside information, will have to wait for the boss to come back to decide. ”
Old Man Dong took over at this time, "That's right, that's right, Miss Xie is mature and stable in handling things, and she is also admired by the old man, and she is really better than the next." I don't know where your boss has gone today, or when he will return, we will either go to apologize or wait here?"
Xie Ting shook her head, "Today, the boss was in a hurry and didn't do much to explain, so I really don't know, and I really apologize." ”
The Dong family suffered one after another in words, forcing the old man Dong and Dong Fang to look at each other. Obviously, they didn't achieve their goal on this trip, and if they didn't know that Wan Peng had really left, they might still think that it was Peng Lai Alchemy.
Old Man Dong smiled slightly at this time, and handed over two boxes, "This is our apology, please accept it first, and the boss will hand it over when he comes back." ”
Unexpectedly, Xie Ting still shook her head, "The boss is not here, and I can't accept gifts, if the boss turns around and blames him, I can't afford it." So, please also ask Dong Lao to bring it back first. ”
Old Man Dong's smile froze on his face again, but then someone carried the box away, "It's okay, we won't be embarrassed for girls." Also, ask the girl about something. When the Yellow Arc came yesterday, during the fight, did you leave a piece of water blue ring in your place?"
Xie Ting shook her head, "This, we really didn't find it." ”
Old Man Dong knew that this trip was indeed futile, and after saying a few polite words, he took people out of the Penglai Alchemy. He had just gone out not far away, and the person he had sent out to inquire about the news reported that this morning, someone noticed that Wan Peng was going in the same direction as going to their Red Fire Flow Gold Mine.
This news shocked the hearts of Old Man Dong and Dong Fang. If Wan Peng gets the Red Fire Gold Essence and makes some judgments about its origin, then goes to the Red Fire Gold Mine and releases the news that it has been found, then the Dong family will never have the possibility of returning it!
The group did not return to the shop, on the one hand, they immediately rushed in that direction, and on the other hand, they told the other guards to rush later, and if there was really any conflict, force would be used.

Maoshan Township.
The name of the town of Maoshan has nothing to do with a hill on the edge of the city. The mountain is called Maoshan Mountain, only about 100 zhang high, a radius of three or five miles, is a veritable hill. The trees on the mountain are evergreen, the whole environment is good, and once you get here, you will give people a sense of leisure and comfort.
Maoshan Town is one of the few towns in the cultivator's camp that only has Yacheng, but in reality, this is only in terms of the number of people who live there. In its natural form, it also has a floating city. It's just that the floating city of Maoshan Town is small, floating in the air, less than one-tenth of the area of Maoshan Town, and at the same time, I don't know when it began, probably at least a few hundred years ago, there were no more cultivators on the floating city of Maoshan Town.
Maoshan Town now accounts for about half of the population through agricultural development, and all the fields are not concentrated, and they are often developed independently, so it is not necessarily clear to the neighbors which households have land and where.
When Wan Peng arrived, it was just in time for the people here to go out to farm. The source of their news, that is, the person who saw Feng Xue return to Maoshan Town, also went to work in the fields. After thinking about it for a while, Wan Peng decided not to check Fengxue's house on his own for the time being, because he could feel that the people here were still more wary of outsiders. He didn't want to get into any trouble here, a Dong family already gave him a headache. So they sat down directly at the entrance of the village and waited for the source to return to the village.
Regarding the whole process of the Dong family's apology, Xie Ting told herself through the heart and soul formation. Wan Peng was also very surprised by this, but when he learned that they asked about the ring, he basically guessed in his heart that it might have something to do with the bead. If that bead is really so important to the Dong family, if they can lower their status and come to apologize, Wan Peng thinks that maybe he will return it to them.
It was almost noon, and Dai Shen pointed to a person who came in the distance, "That person is back." ”
