The next day, Jiang Yan, who had had a night's rest, got up early, faced the morning light, came to the headquarters of the Baihe Chamber of Commerce, and walked into the house belonging to Xie Jun.
Tuk Tuk! Tuk Tuk! Tuk Tuk!
Amidst the knock on the door, Jiang Yan remembered some news he heard on the way and sighed inexplicably:
"The times are really difficult and the people are suffering from disasters."
Ning Lu's army invaded Lieyun City. This was no longer some hidden information. After a night of fermentation, it had already spread throughout the city.
In a short period of time, two counties and cities in Nanyan Prefecture experienced turmoil. Although this has not affected the stability of the prefectural cities, if the prefecture and pastoral government cannot put an end to the chaos as soon as possible, the prosperity here will not last long.
With a creaking sound, the black door in front of him opened little by little, revealing Yin Zhong's slightly tired face.
Jiang Yan was a little surprised, but he still asked first:
"Hallmaster Xie's injury has not been repeated, right?"
Before leaving last night, Jiang Yan spent all his energy to calm the raging strange force in Xie Jun's body and suppress the injury.
The remaining injuries will take time to heal.
When Yin Zhong heard this, his dull eyes rolled, and he was obviously a little more angry. He nodded quickly and responded:
"There are no repetitions, there is no danger. As long as you take good care of yourself in the future, there will be no hidden danger of falling."
That's good... Jiang Yan had a smile on his face.
Yin Zhong invited Jiang Yan into the room to sit down and continued:
"After you left yesterday, the guild leader came here and helped with the preparation. He also brought many precious elixirs."
"That's very good." Jiang Yan maintained his smile and sincerely complimented his guild leader:
"The guild leader is indeed as rumored, he pays more attention to his subordinates."
Yin Zhong also smiled and agreed:
"Indeed, this is why everyone stays in the Baihe Chamber of Commerce and works hard for it.
"Otherwise, with his stingy and stingy character, who would want to come here?"
Are you sure this is an endorsement of Chairman Li? Jiang Yan's smile suddenly froze, and he immediately changed the subject and asked:
"You didn't leave last night? You stayed here to take care of Hall Master Xie? You didn't sleep all night?"
This is judged based on Yin Zhong's mental state at the moment.
Yin Zhong said "hmm" and said in a complicated tone:
"Well, if it wasn't for saving me, Hall Master Xie wouldn't have been so seriously injured, so..."
So, you feel guilty and want to make amends? However, couldn't it be that Xie Jun, an older woman, had to force herself to show off her abilities, take risks and use secret techniques to inflict injuries on herself, which led to this result?
Jiang Yan was not prepared to enlighten Yin Zhong, but said:
"But Ji people have their own destiny. Hall Master Xie is lucky and has turned the corner."
This is the best comfort!
Yin Zhong nodded, then took a serious look at Jiang Yan and said forcefully:
"She didn't get this result because of luck."
Yin Zhong's meaning was obvious. It was Jiang Yan's credit that he and Xie Jun were able to return to Nanyan City safely.
Jiang Yan just smiled silently and made no specific response.
…
…
Half a quarter of an hour later, Jiang Yan entered the room where Xie Jun was recovering from her injuries. After personally confirming that her condition was indeed stable, she felt relieved and withdrew.
At this time, someone came to visit again.
The person who came was a man with dark eyes and a wide face, and gray temples. He was wearing an old-style gray robe with several patches on it. He looked very much like an old boy living in poverty.
Seeing this person, Yin Zhong immediately stood up, welcomed him in, and introduced Jiang Yan, who was a little confused, and said:
"Jiang Yan, this is the leader of our Baihe Chamber of Commerce."
Then, he introduced Jiang Yan's identity to Li Jiyang.
Jiang Yan looked at Li Jiyang's outfit and felt that the leader of the White Crane Club should be like this. He felt that this big shot in Nanyan City who was stingy, stingy and stingy should look like this.
While his thoughts were spinning, he stood up, cupped his fists and said:
"I've met the meeting leader."
Li Jiyang smiled and found a chair to sit down at random, and said to Jiang Yan:
"I know you and have heard your name for a long time."
He paused and continued:
"We have many talented warriors in our club. Xie Jun and Yin Zhong are very optimistic about you."
After saying this, he rolled his eyes slightly:
“When I saw it today, it turned out to be true.
"At such a young age, you have already been promoted to the realm. It really makes me ashamed."
"Uh..." Jiang Yan touched his chin out of habit. The other party's compliments were really a bit unaccustomed to him. Well, maybe as long as he didn't talk about salary, position changes and other interest issues with the meeting leader, his own meeting leader wouldn't Show the kind of state that is rumored.
Suddenly, he felt that he had a deeper understanding of the character of the Baihe Guild Master.
However, at this time, Li Jiyang, who was still smiling, suddenly narrowed his eyes, looked around majestically, and said to Jiang Yan:
"Don't believe the rumors from the outside. Even if you discuss things like salary and position with me, I won't be stingy."
At this point, he laughed out loud and said as if he was joking:
"I'm considering giving you a new position.
"After all, Yin Liu Danfang can no longer match your current status."
Hearing what Li Jiyang said, Jiang Yan's first reaction was not joy or gratitude, but surprise... Li Jiyang seemed to be able to capture his thoughts.
What special secret skill is this? Does he have a clear mind?
Then, Jiang Yan didn't hesitate and spoke directly:
"Master, you seem to have mastered some kind of spiritual technique?"
He dared to ask directly because Li Jiyang didn't hide anything. Otherwise, the other party wouldn't have shown it so obviously.
"Yes, yes." Li Jiyang said with a smile:
"So, even if you want to say something bad, you have to say it behind your back in the future. Otherwise, if I hear it, I will feel unhappy and put your shoes on your back."
Wow, that’s so direct. Jiang Yan nodded, repeated the previous topic, and asked curiously:
"What position does the guild leader plan to give me?"
Li Jiyang seemed to have thought about it a long time ago and said without pause:
"Baihetang, how about you preside over Baihetang?"
Jiang Yan shook his head vigorously without thinking:
"not so good."
Baihetang is Xie Jun's territory. With the relationship between the two parties, how could he take advantage of the other party's injury to take this position.
Really inappropriate.
Seeing this, the smile on Li Jiyang's face widened and he explained:
"Don't refuse in a hurry. What I mean is that you temporarily act as the head of the White Crane Hall. You must know that the White Crane Hall is one of the most important halls of our chamber of commerce. It has always been held by warriors of the pattern realm. Now that Xie Jun is injured, someone must come. Do something?
"When you come to take charge of Baihetang for a while, you can treat it as helping her."
This argument can be considered.
Jiang Yan turned his eyes and met Yin Zhong in mid-air. When he saw the other person, he nodded slightly.
He took a hidden breath and no longer refused:
"Thank you, Master, for your cultivation."
"Okay!" Li Jiyang laughed and said immediately:
"Then let me tell you about your current salary, power, and... responsibilities."
…
…
Yanlu Chamber of Commerce, main entrance.
Jiang Xue, who was slim in stature and pretty in appearance, walked up the stone steps briskly, carrying the breakfast she had bought for her senior brother Xu Shaonian, her eyes full of anticipation.
At this time, an uncertain shout suddenly came from behind her:
"Is that Junior Sister Jiang in front of you?"
Um? Who is calling me?
Jiang Xue was curious and looked back.
