Protect Our Patriarch

...

Hland State.

Geographically speaking, Helan State is located in the north-westerly direction of the entire Cold Moon Continent. The main vein of the famous Helan Mountains runs through one side of its territory, and extends out of countless branches crisscrossing it, forming endless mountains and mining areas.

Of course, the Helan State is very vast, and the mining area surrounding the Helan Mountains accounts for at most half of its total jurisdiction. Further north is the famous Helan Prairie of the Xian Dynasty, and the frozen northern ocean.

In the middle of the main vein of the Helan Mountains, there is a large fertile basin surrounded by mountains, called the [Helan Basin].

The climate here is pleasant and the products are rich, and it is the seat of the state capital of Helan.

There are thousands of large and small families in Helan state, but there are not many areas that are really suitable for large-scale human settlement. However, any family with a little reputation will choose to buy manor and other properties near the palace.

Especially for some third-rank and third-rank families, most of their main residences are not too far from the state capital.

This has also resulted in the current economic prosperity of the Helan Basin and the status quo of many aristocratic families.

At present, there are two first-class families in Helan state, one of which is the [Helan Han family] whose industries are relatively concentrated in mining-related fields.

The main house of the Helan Han family is located on the north side of the Helan Basin.

As an aristocratic family with a long history and profound heritage, Helan Han's main residence occupies a whole city, and the surrounding area is surrounded by Han's properties, which can almost be regarded as an "independent kingdom".

As the main house of the capital of this "independent kingdom", its architecture is also full of old and heavy flavor.

Even after tens of thousands of years and several renovations, the building complex of the main house still maintains its former style, and there is no sign of decadence. The Spirit Gathering Array arranged in the main house is also gathering aura in an endless stream, so that the concentration of aura in the place where the main house is located is much higher than other places.

It can be seen that the Helan Han family is now operating well, and the family economy shows no signs of collapse.

Deep in the main house, there is a courtyard with a quiet environment and abundant spiritual energy, called "Cuijin Garden".

The Lingzhu in the garden is very beautiful and full of vitality.

On the lotus pond, there is a square pavilion.

In the pavilion, at this moment, two handsome young men with extraordinary temperament are sitting opposite the table, enjoying their tea leisurely.

Among them, the one on the left looks slightly more mature.

He was wearing a wide white robe, with a good demeanor and a high bearing, but there was a bit of laziness in his expression.

This also made him look a little less serious and serious from an ordinary family, and a little more dashing.

This person is the most outstanding contemporary hero of the Helan Han family——【Han Langtai】.

Han Langtai has a forthright and informal character. His favorite thing to do on weekdays is to travel around and make friends who are pleasing to the eye, while those who are not pleasing to the eye are ignored.

Such a self-governing personality made the elders in the family who had great hopes for him a headache, and they often talked about him in front of him on weekdays.

However, he himself did not care at all, and still went his own way.

Now that he has nothing to do, being able to sit and drink tea with his friends in the pavilion, for him, is already a pleasure in the world.

As for the young man sitting opposite him, it was his friend, Jiang Xingyuan.

After Donggan came back, Jiang Xingyuan stayed at home for a while, and after finishing what Wang Shouzhe asked him to do, he continued to travel around.

In recent days, I happened to be a guest at Helan Han.

"Good tea, good tea~ This tea has a profound taste, is quiet and tangy, sweet and moistens the lungs, and when you taste it carefully, it actually has the effect of nourishing the source of blood vessels." I never thought that Jiang Xingyuan would be able to drink the ten thousand years purple iron sunflower tea from your house one day."

The Han family has a spiritual tree named "Purple Tie Sunflower Tree", which was planted in the rare purple iron mine. famous.

This tree blooms only once every 300 years, and with the help of Han's secret method, it can be fried into purple iron sunflower tea.

The Han family regarded it as a special treasure. Whenever the purple iron sunflower tree blooms, he will select the best batch of scented tea to pay tribute to the emperor, and the rest will fall into the hands of the famous families of the immortal dynasty.

It is rare to drink outside.

"Huh~"

Seeing his expression, Han Langtai chuckled lightly and said casually, "This 'Purple Iron Sunflower Tea' was originally given to Princess Jing'an by my ancestors, but I only gave you money after I was greedy."

"puff!"

Jiang Xingyuan spit out a sip of tea immediately.

His eyes were round, and he looked at Han Langtai with incredible eyes: "You, you, you dare to be greedy for ink?"

"Why don't you dare?" Han Langtai drank his tea calmly, with an air of self-compassion, "The old ancestor wanted to curry favor with the third princess, that's his business, but I, Han Langtai, disdain it, how can I be like Wei Qingyun? The dog of the third princess?"

"You can't say that. Among the princesses, Princess Jing'an still has a good chance of reaching the top." Jiang Xingyuan laughed wickedly, "That kid Wei Qingyun failed to compete for the Sword Array Collection, and he also brought a suit on Wei. Sao, I am afraid that the position of Palace Master of Princess Jing'an's mansion will be missed by him."

"And Brother Langtai, in every aspect, he is much stronger than Wei Qingyun's servant, right? Don't you want to taste the princess of the fairy family? In the future, you can still be a fairy emperor's husband. It's really here. At that time, I, Jiang Xingyuan, will also be able to develop along with you."

Han Langtai cast a deeply contemptuous look at Jiang Xingyuan: "Brother Jiang, remember that you were also a very high-spirited person, how did you become so wretched after a trip to Donggan? Why don't you represent Hanyuejiang yourself? Shi, go and please the third princess?"

"First, I don't have a good relationship with my family. I've only lived here for a few days this time, and I'm about to be annoyed to death by those old men." Jiang Xingyuan didn't care, and continued to drink tea leisurely. " Second, in recent years, the royal family has produced four little princesses, and her mother's family is the Daliang Jiang family."

"Although my family's fourth little princess has a very slim chance of reaching the top because of her age, she has a close relationship with my family after all. If I dare to curry favor with Princess Jing'an, I will be kicked out of the house by the old guys. "

"In contrast, Brother Langtai now has the advantage of the time and place, and it would be a pity not to find a way to please the third princess."

"Hmph~ I don't care about what Wei Qingyun has licked. I won't talk about it again. Let's talk about your interesting travels in Donggan." Han Langtai changed the subject and said, "Listen to what you said earlier, Gongyang Xiandi competes for Lingyun. Baodian lost? I just don’t understand. Although Gongyang Xiandi comes from a poor family, his talent and talent are all first-class and strong, and there is no reason to lose.”

"Could it be, what kind of unfair treatment did Brother Gongyang encounter? If so, I, Han Langtai, can't stand on the sidelines."

"Come on, this time in the battle of the Holy Son in the Holy Land of Lingyun in Donggan, the Gongyang brothers won't be wronged."

Han Langtai was a little shocked when he saw this: "Could it be that there is a great arrogant better than Brother Gongyang in the Holy Land of Donggan Country?"

"It's more than a big arrogant..." Jiang Xingyuan's eyes were a little confused, and there was a little cold sweat on his forehead, as if he was caught in some kind of past that he didn't want to recall, "Donggan Kingdom is a pit, no, it's a Tiankeng. Ah~"

"..."

Han Langtai was speechless.

Exactly what kind of pit method, you make it clear~

While the two were chatting, in the Helan Mountains, a low-key and luxurious flying chariot slid through the sky and entered the periphery of Helan Han's main house in a low-key manner.

Han Qixuan, the only ancestor of the Han family, Lingxu, brought two clan elders and the contemporary head of the family to greet him secretly in the back mountain.

Seeing that the flying chariot was docked and landed, Han Qixuan took the lead to greet him and said with a loud laugh, "The four little princesses come to the Han family, which really makes the Helan Han family shine~"

"Mr. Qixuan is very polite~ Today, the real Lord of Labor came to greet him in person, which really flattered Meng Yu." Yu Mengyu stepped down from the carriage and returned a salute to Han Qixuan.

Even though she is only eleven years old, she already has a bit of the nobleness of a fairy princess, with a serious expression on her small face, and every move of her hand and every move reveals a graceful fairy spirit.

And behind her, was a beautiful woman with fair skin and beautiful skin, with a cold temperament, like the flower of the high mountains.

When this beautiful woman appeared, Han Qixuan was shocked, and his expression became a little serious.

"Han didn't know that True Monarch Yuling was coming, and he felt guilty and sinful." He hurriedly raised his hand to salute.

[True Monarch] is the title given by the Emperor of the Immortal.

Only those who have the strength to reach the Lingxu realm and have made enough merits on the battlefield can get the imperial seal of the Immortal Emperor.

Generally speaking, the prefix of the title will be selected according to the characteristics of its exercises, or its own name.

In most cases, the powerhouses in Lingxu realm will have their own titles. After all, the powerhouses in Lingxu realm have a long lifespan, and there is always a time when they are recruited to the battlefield.

The stronger the family, the more resources it can gather, and the stronger its strength will naturally be. At this level, it is natural to bear the burden of the survival of the human race, and it is impossible to escape.

With great power comes great responsibility.

This is the common cognition of all ethnic groups, and it is also a concept that has always been followed.

After all, without the hard work and dedication of the seniors on the battlefield, so that the world can still maintain basic peace under the threat of foreign monsters, the junior monks will not have the opportunity to grow calmly.

However, the outstanding juniors of the human race are generally asked to suspend their participation in the battlefield.

A great arrogant wants to go to the battlefield in the realm of heaven, and the seniors and elders will stop it. And a peerless genius in the Zifu realm, it is often difficult to have the opportunity to enter the battlefield.

Of course, if I try my best, I can still go to the battlefield in a low-key manner to gain knowledge and sharpen my skills, but the commander will never give him an overly dangerous task.

However, when Da Tianjiao arrives at the Zifu realm, he will inevitably go to the battlefield. And peerless in the supernatural power realm, it must also be honed on the battlefield. This is also the only way for them to reach a higher level.

Gossip aside.

Next, of course, is a polite greeting process.

Soon, the fourth princess, Yu Mengyu, was invited into the high pavilion in the main house of the Han family that was specially used to welcome VIPs, and received a high-standard reception according to the etiquette of welcoming the princess.

Soon, Han Langtai, who was chatting with Jiang Xingyuan in his garden, was also "caught" by someone sent by Han Qixuan to accompany the four little princesses to dinner.

And as soon as Jiang Xingyuan heard that the fourth little princess was here, of course, he followed the past for a meal.

Although Jiang Xingyuan knew that the fourth little princess, Yu Mengyu, had a close relationship with her family, she was only eleven years old after all. When she was born, he was still floating in the country of Donggan, and when she was a guest in the country, Mengyu was relatively low-key. , He happened to be looking for Gongyangce to play in Lingyun Holy Land at the time, and the two of them couldn't meet.

Therefore, this is the first time the two have met.

"I have seen the Fourth Princess, and I have seen True Monarch Jade Spirit." As soon as Han Langtai and Jiang Xingyuan entered the door, they respectfully raised their hands and greeted the two of them.

Even if they were conceited, the two would not dare to take Qiao in front of the Fourth Princess and the True Monarch Yuling.

Especially Jiang Xingyuan, when he saw True Monarch Yuling, his expression changed.

Jiang Xingyuan is a child of Hanyue Jiang's family. At the beginning, he had some conflicts with his family, and then he joined Asgard in frustration. Although Zhenjun Yuling was born in Daliang Jiang's family, he has been under the care of Hanyue Jiang's family for a long time, and the relationship between the two sides is naturally relatively harmonious.

Naturally, Jiang Xingyuan became the "key care object" of True Monarch Jade Spirit, and he would be recruited to give him advice every once in a while.

As a result, Jiang Xingyuan lived a "happy life" in Asgard, where he was beaten every three days and beaten every five days, so much so that he now hesitates when he sees Zhenjun Yuling.

"Yo, isn't this Xingyuan?" Yuling Zhenjun glanced at Jiang Xingyuan from the corner of his eyes, his expression was half-smiling, "I heard that you have gone on a trip? This time you have been traveling for a long time, Donggan Kingdom is fun. Is it?"

"Okay, fun."

When Jiang Xingyuan faced True Monarch Yuling, it was like a mouse seeing a cat, shivering and not daring to take a breath.

"Very good, then you can stay by my side for a while~ I haven't given you any advice for a long time." Jade Spirit True Monarch Shi Shiran said, "You have been traveling for decades, so you must have a lot of insight and understanding. accumulation."

"Yes, Yuling Patriarch."

Jiang Xingyuan slumped his head, not daring to utter a word of disapproval, but there was a miserable cry in his heart.

My life, Jiang Xingyuan, is really hard~ He just wants to meet the four little princesses who have never met. Who would have thought that the True Monarch Yuling is actually there? This is really taking the initiative to plunge into the tiger's mouth~~

After some food and drink reception.

The idle people and so on all retreat.

Han Qixuan, the ancestor of the Han family, naturally took out purple iron sunflower tea to entertain the distinguished guests, and even sent out two extra packets, one for each of the fourth princess and Jade Spirit.

After three cups of tea.

Only then did Han Qixuan tentatively enter the topic: "The Fourth Princess and the True Monarch Jade Spirit are here to visit our Han family. Is there something important? As long as my Han family can do it, I will never say anything else."

True Monarch Yuling continued to drink tea without saying a word.

Seeing this, Han Qixuan immediately understood something, and turned to look at Yu Mengyu.

Yu Mengyu pondered for a while, and then said: "To be honest, Meng Yu really has something important to ask for when he came here this time. Does Zhenjun Qixuan know that the conflict between Daliang and Moyan Kingdom has become more intense in recent years?"

"I've heard a little about this." Han Qixuan nodded solemnly, "Moyan Kingdom and Daliang are evenly matched in overall strength, and they fought very fiercely, but whether it is the Immortal Dynasty or the Demon Dynasty, it is difficult to take the initiative to increase troops to support, Otherwise, it is very likely to lead to a new round of immortal and demon wars."

"That's right. Now the battles on the battlefield outside the territory are getting more and more intense. The ancestors of the immortal emperor and the demon emperor have reached a tacit understanding, and neither wants to provoke a war between immortals and demons at this juncture." Yu Mengyu's expression was a little heavy, "But I Her mother was from Princess Daliang, and for this matter, the old man tossed and turned all day and was worried. As a woman, Meng Yu wanted to share her mother's worries."

"Meng Yu heard from my mother that after so many years of war, Daliang has consumed a lot of resources, and the inventory of mysterious iron ore is already stretched, but the Moyan Kingdom is actually similar. If there is a large amount of mysterious iron ore to support at this time, It will be quite beneficial to the battlefield situation, and it may even be used to gain an advantage in the war with the Demon Yan Kingdom."

Mysterious iron ore?

Han Qixuan's heart tightened slightly, then he showed a wry smile and said: "Fourth Princess, you don't know, although our Han family still has some mysterious iron ingots, but they are not many, they are only for spare. lazy."

"Old Han, don't say those empty words in front of the princess." Yuling Zhenjun slowly raised his head and said with a smile that was not a smile, "There are some words, this Zhenjun doesn't want to be too explicit, for fear of injury. each other's faces."

"True Monarch Yuling, I am..."

Han Qixuan's expression changed slightly, and he quickly wanted to say something.

However, he just said half a sentence, but was interrupted by Yu Mengyu raising his hand.

"True monarch, it's normal for a family to pursue profits, and we don't mean to criticize you. Since we're here today, we naturally know some inside stories, so don't fool me with those clichés. Let's be open and honest so that the conversation can continue. "

"Fourth Princess, True Monarch Jade Spirit." Han Langtai frowned slightly and said to his ancestors, "Our Han family did keep some spare black iron ingots, but they were reserved in case, not us. Han's hoarding is strange. Could it be that you are planning to use the princess's power and force to forcefully rob my Han's inventory of black iron?"

Han Langtai didn't even want to kneel and lick the third princess who had a high voice to climb to the top. Naturally, he wouldn't be afraid of the fourth princess who had not yet become a climate. Therefore, his tone was quite tough.

"Brother Langtai is too worried." Yu Mengyu had a plan long before he came, and he was not surprised to see him say this, but he still calmly said, "We have neither purchased nor robbed Han's black iron ingots. .We are ready to borrow!"

"borrow?"

Han Langtai and Han Qixuan looked at each other.

Did the four princesses have water in their heads?

Their Han family didn't even want to sell it, let alone borrow it? Now that the price of black iron ingots is rising steadily, the future price and market are quite promising... At this time, if you sell black iron ingots, you will lose money no matter what.

The cunning and cunning Han Qixuan rolled his eyes and was about to decline, but Yu Mengyu raised ten fingers and said, "In three years, I will borrow ten and return thirteen!"

Han Qixuan was stunned for a moment, and looked at Yu Mengyu with some uncertainty: "Fourth Princess, what do you mean...?"

"It's very simple. We need to borrow enough black iron ingots to make 100,000 sets of black armor. After three years, I will make up for your 130,000 sets of black iron ingots." Yu Mengyu explained sternly.

"Is this true?"

Han Qixuan stood up all of a sudden, his eyes bursting with light.

Over the years, the Han family and the Wei family have been secretly hoarding black iron ore, and have joined hands to hype the price of black iron ingots. Because both of them have quite a lot of mysterious iron ore veins in their hands, and they account for a very large proportion of the mysterious iron ore production in the entire Xian Dynasty, therefore, the two have always cooperated very smoothly.

This time, the target speculation price set by the two companies is 800 Immortal Crystals per set. And it must be sold in a unified way, and no one is allowed to sell it privately.

At this price, 100,000 sets would be 80,000,000 Immortal Crystals!

This is almost all of the Han family's inventory, and the hundreds of years of hard accumulation rely on this wave to make money.

But according to Yu Mengyu's proposal, 130,000 sets of black iron ingots can be returned after three years. If each set is calculated at 800, an additional 24 million immortal crystals can be added! This is not to mention the price increase of black iron ingots in the past three years.

How much is this?

This is equivalent to half an ordinary Taoist weapon! If you replace it with a magical treasure, you can buy at least five pieces!

Even if it is a first-grade family, it will take a long time to accumulate such a huge amount of wealth.

I have to say that Yu Mengyu's proposal is really tempting.

For a while, Han Qixuan's breathing became heavier.

"What if the fourth princess can't get so many black iron ingots by then?" Han Langtai asked with a frown without being carried away by the interests.

"Then we will compensate Han according to the highest market price of black iron ingots at that time, and make up for the amount of the shortage, and we will ensure that the unit price will not be lower than eight hundred immortal crystals." Yu Mengyu quickly reported the data, "That is to say , Three years later, the worst result for the Han family is to receive compensation of 104 million immortal crystals. Of course, we will give priority to replenishing the warehouse with black iron ingots."

Only at this point did True Monarch Yuling put down the teacup he had been holding, and said lightly, "I, Yuling, and the Royal Palace of the Northern Territory can both guarantee this matter."

Although she was very calm on the surface, she was full of emotion inside.

The plans that the two eleven-year-olds had tossed up were too terrifying, and they could easily be hundreds of millions of immortal crystals. Pity her, Jiang Yuling, she has never seen such a huge amount of money in her life~~

"Okay, okay~~Since there is a guarantee from True Monarch Jade Spirit and the Royal Palace of the Northern Territory~www.readwn.com~, the old man can borrow it with confidence. The old man also does something for the Human Race Alliance."

Hearing this, why is Han Qixuan worried?

He immediately responded with a smile.

However, before he was completely swept away by the interests, he coughed again and said with a serious face: "However, regarding this matter, Han has two requests."

"First, this matter must be kept secret, and everyone at the scene must swear a poisonous oath, and not reveal the slightest information to the outside world. Second, all terms and conditions must be clearly written in black and white, and a written document will be established. At that time, the royal palace of the Northern Territory and Yu Lingzhen If you don't get up, Han can still talk to Immortal Venerable and Immortal Sovereign."

Only in this way can he dare to lend his inventory with confidence.

"This is natural. Confidentiality is the most important thing. After all, we don't want the Demon Dynasty to know about this, so as not to become the fuse of the next round of the Immortal Demon War." Yu Mengyu also had a stern face and a serious expression.

However, don't look at her calm expression at the moment, she seems to be very calm, but her heart is actually happy, and she is so excited that she almost jumps up, she has to keep her face tight to prevent herself from laughing on the spot .

Wealth is right. Wealth and silk move people's hearts, greed is the original sin~

As long as the benefits are huge enough, even outrageous things may become reality.

Of course, Yu Mengyu didn't intend to make fun of her princess' reputation. Three years later, she will definitely return all the black iron ingots that should be given to Han.

As for the process in the middle, and whether Han shi will regret it so much that her bowels are blue, she can't control it. After all, the contract was written in black and white, and she fulfilled it all.

By the way, how do you say the word rich?

Borrow to short.

Yes, it is "borrowing to short".
