Song Jianchen's attitude was a complete change from before.
There was no way, Ning Zhenxiong was now the Grand Master, and the status of the two sides was already in an unequal position. Song Jianchen felt that he had to take the initiative to show his kindness.
Facing Song Jianchen's overtures, Ning Zhenxiong acted very calmly.
He seemed to have thought about it a long time ago, and slowly said:
"The Director of the Armed Forces Bureau holds the resources of a province's warriors, and his status is comparable to that of the President of the General Chamber of Commerce. If you can gain more business benefits for our Ning family in the future, Ning will be grateful."
Song Jianchen nodded without thinking:
"Of course."
Ning Zhenxiong said again:
"The superiors should allocate a lot of warrior training resources to the Military Affairs Bureau every year, whether it is medicines or other materials. I hope that the Ning family can have the right of first refusal, and also give some discounts on the price."
After Song Jianchen pondered for a moment, he finally made a final decision:
"On the one hand, things like cultivation resources are relatively scarce, and on the other hand, many people are watching. I can't obviously be biased... I can only promise that if there are any good things, let the Ning family give priority to them, and at the same time, all resource prices will be given to Ning. 30% off at home.”
Ning Zhenxiong knew that this was the biggest concession Song Jianchen could make, and immediately nodded with satisfaction:
"Okay, then we'll make an agreement."
As he spoke, he extended his hand to the other party.
Song Jianchen suppressed his excitement and held Ning Zhenxiong's palm tightly with both hands:
"It's a deal!"
The two looked at each other and laughed.
Chen Miaoyin and Ning Hao were watching this scene and were very excited. Chen Miaoyin even got up and called the servants and ordered:
"Go and ask the chef to prepare wine and food. We will entertain Director Song well today."
Song Jianchen waved his hand quickly:
"Sister-in-law, it's no need. I'm very emotional right now, but I don't have the patience to sit down and eat. I just want to go to the bureau now and prepare to compete with Zhou Xianzong for the directorship."
"Only when the General Chamber of Commerce of the province informs the whole province about the arena competition, can I sleep well with peace of mind."
To compete for the position of director, Song Jianchen needed to submit a report to the General Chamber of Commerce. He was afraid of long nights and dreams, so he didn't want to stay for a moment longer.
Ning Zhenxiong also knew that this matter was important, so he waved his hand to tell his wife not to worry about it, and stood up to see Song Jianchen out in person:
"If that's the case, then I won't keep you."
"I'm waiting for your good news at home."
Song Jianchen waved his hand and disappeared into the night.
After Song Jianchen left, Ning Zhenxiong turned back to the living room.
Ning Hao followed him and said excitedly:
"Dad, as long as we help Song Jianchen become the director of the Military Affairs Bureau, then he will be completely in the same boat as us. At that time, I can lead the people from the Military Affairs Bureau to arrest Zhang Dachuan in person!"
"Can you ask Uncle Song to arrange a position for me in the Military Affairs Bureau?"
Hearing this, Ning Zhenxiong looked at Ning Hao coldly:
"Is that why you're ecstatic?"
Feeling the coldness and displeasure in his father's tone, Ning Hao's face suddenly stiffened and he hesitated:
"I-is there anything wrong with me thinking this way?"
Ning Zhenxiong snorted coldly:
"Do you know why you lost to Zhang Dachuan again and again?"
Ning Hao was stunned for a moment, then whispered:
"I, I am not as strong as him."
Ning Zhenxiong sneered:
"It seems that your brain has not been confused. Since you know that your strength is not as good as his, you don't want to improve your strength, but you choose to follow these evil ways. Are you stupid?"
Ning Hao was shocked and lowered his head in shame.
He finally understood why Ning Zhenxiong was so angry with him.
Ning Hao took a deep breath, lowered his head and said:
"Dad, I understand."
"I will focus on martial arts from now on and will not rely on external forces anymore."
Ning Zhenxiong nodded with satisfaction:
"For the next period of time, you don't have to worry about anything. Just focus on practicing at home."
"I hope that after the arena competition is over, your strength can reach a higher level. By then, I want you to personally avenge Zhang Dachuan and earn back the face you have lost. Do you understand?"
Ning Hao clenched his fist and gritted his teeth and said:
"Dad, don't worry, I can definitely do it."
Ning Zhenxiong nodded slightly and patted his son's shoulder gently:
"He is a good son for me, Ning Zhenxiong, if he is ambitious."
…
Since the Ning family rescued Ning Hao, they have been very quiet and have not made any commercial counterattacks on Sichuan Yun Mingjiu.
Thanks to the mutual achievements of Jiangjia Xiaoguan and Guangshun retail chain, both the premium Sichuan Yunming Wine and the premium Sichuan Yunming Wine have reached unprecedented heights in terms of reputation and sales.
Because of this, both Jiang Wantong and Su Yun were so busy that they didn't even have time to be gentle with Zhang Dachuan.
Zhang Dachuan, who had nothing to do, could not help, so he could only return to the villa to practice martial arts and consolidate his newly promoted realm.
On this day, Zhang Dachuan had just finished a set of Tiger Beng Fist when he received a call from Wang Tiebiao:
"Brother Chuan, we have clues to what you asked us to find. Do you have time to come over now?"
Zhang Dachuan became energetic after hearing this:
"Any news about the Living Flower? Great, I'll go there now."
Wang Tiebiao said:
"Let's meet at the training ground."
Zhang Dachuan nodded, hung up the phone, and immediately rushed to the practice ground.
Because he was grateful for Zheng Nanshan's help in martial arts, Zhang Dachuan also asked Wang Tiebiao and his gang to find ways to find out about the living flower.
He didn't have any hope at first, he just wanted to do his part, but he didn't expect that these people would actually find out about the living flower.
Half an hour later, Zhang Dachuan arrived at the training ground on the outskirts of the city and found that Wang Tiebiao and others were fighting each other in the makeshift octagonal cage in the center under the guidance of Gu Dan. The fight was inextricable.
Seeing Zhang Dachuan coming, Gu Dan explained lightly:
"Their realm has advanced too fast and they need to stop and stabilize."
"At the same time, they lack experience in life-and-death battles, so I use the octagonal cage to simulate that scenario and increase their combat experience. Otherwise, if they meet real masters, they will have no realm and no experience, and they will be dead."
Zhang Dachuan nodded sympathetically.
After waiting for about five minutes, Wang Tiebiao successfully defeated Sun Jianfei, who was sparring with him, and walked out of the Octagon with half his face swollen.
Zhang Dachuan threw a pack of ice packs over and walked to the side with Wang Tiebiao:
"Have you really heard about the Living Flower? Where is it?"
Wang Tiebiao bared his teeth and replied:
"There is a black market in the northern suburbs of Dongjiang. Some people saw life flowers there. I'm not sure if it's true."
Hearing this, Zhang Dachuan pulled Wang Tiebiao and walked out:
"Whether it's true or not, just go and have a look and you'll find out."
The Living Flower is a magical elixir that ordinary warriors don't know about. Since someone can name it, there are probably some clues.
