Skipping Zhao Yuanba and Miao Xiaohong, Jiang Yan took steps and walked to their right, in the direction where Lu Lu was.
As expected, he met Xu Shaonian and Jiang Xue, two Qingqiu Taoist disciples who had fled from Ninglu Prefecture.
"Brother Xu, Miss Jiang, we meet again."
Jiang Yan looked at the two of them with a smile and greeted them warmly.
"Maybe this is fate." Xu Shaonian, who already knew the relationship between Lu Lu and Jiang Yan, responded immediately with emotion on his face.
He really felt that this was fate. There were so many people in Nanyan City, and yet he could get acquainted with Jiang Yan in a "roundabout way". It was not fate.
"I've met Brother Jiang."
Jiang Xue showed a standard sweet smile and gave a slight bow.
Jiang Yan nodded slightly, looked around, and asked about today's situation:
"Are you prepared enough for today?"
It took a long time to discuss important matters with Yin Zhong, and it was almost noon now.
But it seems that the number of refugees waiting to receive free food has not decreased. It is still a bustling place, not much different from when we first met in the morning.
This is different from what Lu Lu said. According to normal circumstances, most people should have received their food by this time.
Well, the amount of food they distributed was quite sufficient, enough to relieve hunger for a day.
"Not enough."
The smile on Xu Shaonian's face faded a little:
"The quantity is based on previous demand, but today there are suddenly more refugees coming here, probably twice as many."
He paused and explained:
"We also know the reason. There are two aspects:
"First, the Black Bear Association closest to here stopped giving charity. After the group of people who originally relied on them for support dispersed, most of them went here.
"Secondly, the Acropolis in the north suffered another disaster some time ago, and new victims have just arrived in the city."
Jiang Yan suddenly exhaled softly, closed his eyes, then turned to Lu Lu beside him and said:
"Don't be afraid of spending. Let's get through today first."
Lu Lu immediately understood what he meant, nodded and walked towards Miao Xiaohong, asking them to help buy food.
Withdrawing his gaze, Jiang Yan turned his gaze back to Xu Shaonian, pondered for a moment, and said after consideration:
"Brother Xu is able to promise Qingqiu Dao Kung Fu to Lu Lu, and I am very grateful.
"Earning merit is a good thing for both others and ourselves. Therefore, I plan to use private channels to establish a small chamber of commerce to make money and be responsible for this aspect."
At the end of the sentence, his eyes became sincere:
"Brother Xu, do you want to consider joining here?"
Being able to forcefully lead a group of refugees from Lieyun City to Nanyan City when he was not safe, even if he had a purpose and to earn merit, his character could not be bad.
Moreover, this guy's martial arts cultivation is also high.
Comprehensive judgment: Xu Shaonian is a high-quality stock and someone who can be trusted to cooperate with.
"Making money? Chamber of Commerce?" Xu Shaonian said 'hmm', his tone was inexplicable, and he didn't seem so happy.
"Yes." Jiang Yan responded immediately:
“Charity is not just words, it means spending money to buy food, and filling the bellies of victims and homeless people. We can’t just sit there and have nothing, we have to find a channel to make money.
"In this way, earning merit will be a steady stream."
"Brother Jiang has a way? Can he make money?" Xu Shaonian's eyes moved slightly as he heard Jiang Yan's eloquent words, as if he was very interested.
It's not difficult to make money, especially for warriors... Jiang Yan muttered silently... Based on Xu Shaonian's reaction when he just proposed to open a chamber of commerce to make money, he was basically sure of one thing:
Xu Shaonian must have had a less than happy past when it came to making money.
"Definitely." Jiang Yan said three words with confidence.
Then, he explained the plan in detail, mainly relying on the Yinliu Street Danfang that was about to be controlled, and decentralizing its money-making channels to the new chamber of commerce.
The wool of the upright Baihe Chamber of Commerce.
Although he has never asked about it, Jiang Yan believes that other chamber of commerce managers must have done this, or even more egregiously than this.
"In addition, after the new chamber of commerce is established, it will also need people." Jiang Yan glanced at the victims in front of him and made suggestions:
"At that time, we can focus on recruiting people from here and give them a job so that they can live on their own strength. Isn't it better than having one meal and no next meal?
"When the time comes, these guys will definitely be grateful to us."
His voice became deeper, mixed with temptation:
"This is also a merit..."
Nakedly abducting Qingqiu Dou's disciple who was in trouble.
"I agreed." After Jiang Yan finished speaking, Xu Shaonian agreed immediately without hesitation.
Then, he glanced sideways at the pretty woman next to him:
"Junior Sister Jiang, what about you? Why don't we come together?"
The short, delicate-looking woman raised her eyebrows when she heard this, and her voice became dull:
"good."
If you ask about this matter, it will hurt the girl's heart... Jiang Yan couldn't help but cover his face, and after secretly sighing like a straight man, he decided to help.
His smile became bright and he asked directly:
"Brother Xu, is there a woman you like?"
When he said this, his eyes moved and "just happened" to meet the eyes of Junior Sister Jiang. The other party seemed to have noticed his purpose and lowered his head again, but his neck was pink.
"Ah?" Xu Shaonian was stunned for a moment and did not react.
According to his opinion, the two of them had just agreed on the establishment of a new chamber of commerce. Shouldn't they discuss the details next?
Why talk about women?
"Haha... As a partner, I have to remind you."
Jiang Yan withdrew his gaze, pursed his lips, and said seriously:
"Your destiny is nearby."
Junior Sister Jiang's exposed skin was completely red, and illusory white air was coming out of her head. Her body was trembling slightly, like a frightened deer, about to run away the next moment.
"Hahaha... what Brother Jiang said is absolutely true."
Xu Shaonian seemed to understand something and laughed. His tone became cheerful again and he said:
"To be honest, Brother Jiang, since I came to Nanyan City, I have discovered that the daughter's family here has many advantages:
"Tall, beautiful, generous, not shy."
Speaking of this, he looked forward to it:
"Yesterday, I met a girl in Xinqiao who was being bullied by pickpockets. I dealt with the matter casually. She asked me to have dinner with her tonight.
"Yeah, I also think my fate is here."
Looking at the junior sister of the Jiang family whose shyness faded away and whose anger was no longer hidden, the smile on Jiang Yan's face slowly solidified. Looking at Xu Shaonian who was still beaming with joy, he suddenly sighed silently and said in words that only he could hear:
"It looks like there is no hope."
"It's none of my business that you seek your own death."
At the same time, in addition to "a good person" and "a poor person", Xu Shaonian had a third label in his heart:
Straight man of steel.
Isn’t it nice to have a little junior sister who is surrounded by little birds?
Bang!
Amid a low-pitched cry, Xu Shaonian, who was chattering endlessly, was hammered directly into the ground by a delicate fist, frightening the surrounding victims to retreat.
"Brother Jiang."
Jiang Xue smiled like a flower:
"Let's talk about the new chamber of commerce first."
Jiang Yan looked at her silently for a few breaths and nodded gently.
