Three days later, at the Yanlu Chamber of Commerce, Xu Shaonian got up early and walked quickly towards the meeting hall. He was about to be busy.
Ever since the news of Jiang Yan taking charge of Baihetang spread, the business here has become even better. Not only has the profit earned greatly increased, but also many new profit channels have been expanded.
There were even forces outside the Baihe Chamber of Commerce that came to seek cooperation.
Although these forces are just ordinary small forces, it also means that Yanlu Chamber of Commerce is developing in a better direction.
However, as a price, Xu Shaonian, the actual head of the Chamber of Commerce, sleeps less than four hours a day, which is very miserable.
"Brother Xu, morning."
"Brother Xu, it's good morning."
On the road, when many young faces met Xu Shaonian, they would stop briefly and say hello respectfully.
That Junior Sister Lin Zhu didn't lie, she really contacted many lost disciples of Qingqiu Dao, and with the approval of Xu Shaonian and Jiang Xue, she managed these people to work in the Chamber of Commerce.
With the addition of these relatively familiar colleagues, the manpower shortage dilemma of the rapidly expanding Yanlu Chamber of Commerce has also been alleviated to a certain extent.
This made Xu Shaonian feel in his heart that inviting Junior Sister Lin Zhu over was a very correct choice.
Otherwise, how could we recruit so many trustworthy people at once?
Da da! Da da! Da da!
Xu Shaonian pushed open the meeting hall, looked around, and found that someone had arrived earlier. He turned his eyes slightly and said with a smile:
"Junior Sister, Junior Sister Lin, Miss Ning Xiang, good morning."
Jiang Xue's efforts during this period are still somewhat effective, and she can be directly referred to as "Junior Sister".
"Brother." Jiang Xue stood up and came closer, said hello, then pointed to a parcel on the table and said softly:
"I bought breakfast, please try it."
"Okay." Xu Shaonian nodded, his eyes moved, and he lingered for a while between the delicate and beautiful forest bamboos and the cold temperament of Ning Xiang. He seemed to hesitate, but still mustered up the courage to say:
"Junior Sister Lin, Miss Ning, come together!"
Senior brother is not only straightforward and dishonest, but also a bit of a playboy... In an instant, Jiang Xue's face changed back and forth, feeling sad and embarrassed, and finally she snorted coldly and left without looking back.
However, as soon as she walked out of the door of the Chamber of Commerce, she saw a familiar figure walking towards her. The person chuckled:
"Miss Jiang, long time no see."
Jiang Xue looked at Jiang Yan in front of her, her mouth bulged and her chin raised slightly: "No man is good."
After saying that, she puffed up her cheeks and passed by Jiang Yan.
Jiang Yan watched Jiang Xue's figure turn the corner and said thoughtfully:
"Is this a relative coming?"
He shook his head and ignored it.
…
…
"Come on, let me introduce you."
Xu Shaonian pointed at Jiang Yan who was sitting on the main seat:
"This is the leader of our chamber of commerce, Jiang Yan."
Then, his eyes moved to Lin Zhu:
"This is Junior Sister Lin Zhu. Like me and Jiang Xue, we both come from Qingqiu Dao."
Hey, this place is going to become the Yanlu Chamber of Commerce - Qingqiu Dao Branch... And Qingqiu Dao chooses disciples, is it based on appearance? Xu Shaonian, Jiang Xue and this Lin Zhu all have their own temperaments and can be regarded as high-quality human beings... Various thoughts in Jiang Yan's mind suddenly disappeared, but he still nodded slightly towards Lin Zhu as a greeting.
Then, he said directly to Xu Shaonian:
"I'm going to use a resource."
Xu Shaonian nodded, without asking what he was doing, but took out an account book from his pocket and handed it to the other party:
"Our chamber of commerce is still short and our daily expenses are high, so don't expect too much."
Jiang Yan didn't respond. He took the account book and flipped it through. He just looked at the last page for a while before closing it again and said with a smile:
"Fortunately, there are more than I thought."
After a pause, he considered and said:
"Give me half."
"Okay." Xu Shaonian agreed and then asked:
"When do you want it?"
"Send it to Baihe Hall in the afternoon." Jiang Yan was also concise and to the point.
After talking about business, the two discussed the trivial matters that the Chamber of Commerce had encountered recently, and Jiang Yan said goodbye and left here.
…
…
After Jiang Yan left, Lin Zhu, who had been watching, finally couldn't help but said:
"Senior Brother Xu, this Guild Master Jiang doesn't look very old, right?"
Xu Shaonian responded calmly:
"Not big."
After saying this, without waiting for Lin Zhu's response, he immediately added:
"But his martial arts cultivation is higher than mine."
Is his martial arts cultivation higher than that of Xu Shaonian? What rank could that be? As far as she knew, Xu Shaonian was already in the Golden Core realm. So, this Guild Master Jiang?
Lin Zhu's heart was pounding.
She had the answer in her mind:
Talisman realm.
As for a higher rank, she didn't dare to guess or confirm it, because her intuition felt that it was impossible.
…
…
After walking out of the Yanlu Chamber of Commerce, Jiang Yan turned his head and ordered a man next to him:
"Send some manpower to check the background of some of my people here."
In subsequent conversations with Xu Shaonian, Jiang Yan learned that during the recent period, in addition to Lin Zhu, she had also contacted more than fifty disciples from Qingqiu Dao for the Chamber of Commerce.
This is outrageous! ! ! !
If you have this kind of ability to connect with so many fellow sects, why should you succumb to others and work for a little-known little force?
Maybe Xu Shaonian and Jiang Xue were too naive, maybe they didn't think much about it because they were from the same school, and thought it was a good thing.
But Jiang Yan would rather put more thought into it.
Anyway, now he is in charge of Baihetang, and he has a lot of people working for him, but he can't even use them.
"Yes, Hall Master." The man agreed in a low voice, then turned around and walked into the crowd and disappeared.
Then, a man dressed in the same dress as the one who left before immediately followed:
"Master, your next itinerary plan is:
"Discuss cooperation with the deacon from the Hero Pavilion."
Jiang Yan asked calmly:
"Is the person over there coming?"
The man responded briefly:
"Half an hour ago."
Jiang Yan nodded lightly and said:
"Is there anything else?"
The man rolled his eyes, thought for a while, and said:
"You mentioned that you would take three girls shopping tonight."
"..." Jiang Yan breathed out slowly.
…
…
In Lieyun City, a large house somewhere in the north of the city, a man was sitting on a stone chair inside the pavilion, listening to the report of his subordinates, his face becoming more and more solemn.
Finally, he sighed, looked sideways at an old man opposite, and asked:
"Return to old age? What do you think?"
The old man opposite him did not respond immediately, but frowned, as if he was troubled by something.
After half a quarter of an hour, the old man slowly spoke, word by word:
"Send a message to headquarters and just say:
"Lieyun City is already in danger and is about to be destroyed. Due to the deterioration of the situation, we decided to evacuate Lieyun in advance and let experts be sent there to meet us halfway."
The man seemed to be waiting for this sentence. Without any hesitation, he said immediately:
"good."
After speaking, he took out a message charm from his pocket, a message charm with a white crane exploring its claws embroidered on the back.
