Heaven-devouring Dragon Emperor
Chapter 2045 Behind the scene
It's a pity that the Dongchuang incident happened today, and everything finally came to light.
At this moment, he regretted it too much, but it was too late.
In this situation, even if Patriarch Xiang didn't kill him, he probably wouldn't be able to survive.
"Family... Patriarch, give me... have fun, cough cough cough!"
Elder Ji's breathing became weaker and weaker, and he was already on the verge of dying.
"Hmph! Insidious villain, you deserve to die!"
Patriarch Xiang yelled angrily, and the spiritual power surged under his feet, and with a bang, Elder Ji was shaken to pieces, and he couldn't die anymore!
"It's not a pity for this person to die, but the mastermind behind the scenes is still running around in secret. It's not too late. Let's find him out as soon as possible!"
Jiang Tian frowned and sighed, and said in a deep voice.
Patriarch Xiang naturally didn't hesitate, and took Jiang Tianchao's mansion to another courtyard in a flash.
Although the matter has come to this point, Jiang Tian can withdraw completely, but he feels that it is inappropriate to stop hastily.
And he is also very curious, what kind of person is the person behind the scenes?
Hiding behind the scenes, he was able to manipulate a high-status guest official like Elder Ji. This person's means and mind are obviously quite remarkable!
...
Boom!
In the depths of the Xiang family's mansion, a certain steward lived in the mansion.
With a loud bang, the closed door was shaken by the powerful fluctuation of spiritual power, and two figures rushed into the courtyard.
"Who is so bold?"
An angry exclamation sounded suddenly, and a fat, bare-chested, bare-chested steward rushed out angrily, but when he saw the two people standing in front of him, his expression changed immediately!
"Patriarch! You are..."
The fat steward's eyes twitched wildly, his face flushed instantly, and his eyes were full of doubt and panic.
Patriarch Xiang frowned, and a cold look flashed in his eyes.
He had heard before that this fat steward was naturally flirtatious, and after molesting the maids in the mansion, seeing him now, his reputation was well-deserved.
Just from his disheveled clothes and flushed face, it is not difficult to see what he is doing in the room with the door closed in broad daylight.
as expected!
A moment later, a slightly fat and pretty girl ran out of the room, and knelt down in front of Patriarch Xiang, trembling, with a look of panic on her face.
Patriarch Xiang didn't even look at her, he fully understood all this, and said coldly: "Where is your confidant, let him get out!"
"Who..." The fat steward couldn't help hesitating when he heard the words, but in a blink of an eye he thought of a deputy steward who had flourished under him in the past few years.
This person had never known him before, and only started to work for him after being recommended by Elder Meng Ji a few years ago.
Speaking of which, this person really has some skills!
Not only is his mind shrewd, but his means and strength are not weak. The key point is that this person does not seem to have too much ambition. He is extremely low-key and restrained on weekdays. He is really a reliable person who can't be met.
Since the time when he took office, he has made a lot of hard work for him, and even solved many difficult problems that were difficult to solve before, quickly gained his trust, and quickly gained a firm foothold in the Xiang family.
And after several trials, he was finally convinced that this person was simply loyal and would not pose any threat to his status at all.
In this way, he trusted the other party even more, and gradually handed over some of the family business he was in charge of to the other party.
At first, he was not without worries, but when he saw that those industries were managed smoothly by this person in a short period of time, he didn't even have to worry about it at all, he was really happy!
In this way, he became a hands-off shopkeeper with peace of mind, and handed over all the affairs under him to that person, while he closed the door tightly, and became a little "Emperor of Earth" in a corner of Xiang's house, living a proud life. The days of extravagance.
"Patriarch means... Song Xu?"
"That's right!" Patriarch Xiang's eyes were cold, and he shouted angrily.
"He...he's not in the mansion!" The corner of the fat steward's eyes twitched, and his heart started beating involuntarily.
Although there is nothing wrong with the property he is in charge of, what he has done in the past few years is indeed worthy of the responsibility of management. If Patriarch Xiang finds out, I am afraid it will definitely not please him.
Patriarch Xiang's face darkened: "Don't think that this old man doesn't know what you've done these past few years, just tell me, where is he?"
The fat steward was so shocked that he knelt down with a plop, beads of sweat dripping down his forehead, completely panicked.
In the past few years, he thought he was doing it shrewdly and without showing any traces, but he didn't expect that everything could still escape the eyes of the Patriarch!
At this moment, he was completely in panic, and he felt extremely remorseful.
"The villain doesn't know exactly where he is resting right now, but... it's just that several properties that the villain is in charge of have been handed over to him. If there are no accidents, he should be in..."
boom!
Patriarch Xiang shouted angrily, and before the other party finished speaking, he released a powerful spiritual force, which directly knocked the fat steward unconscious.
Immediately afterwards, his figure rose into the air in a flash, and rushed towards the outside of Xiangfu.
"Jiang Tian, come with me!"
"Um!"
Jiang Tian followed closely without hesitation.
The two rushed forward, and not long after, they came to a certain bustling street in the eastern area of Cangjing City.
Jiang Tian glanced at it intently, and saw that there were people coming and going here, and it was so bustling. It was actually a very exciting commercial street in Cangjing!
Looking around, there are many shops on both sides of the street, most of which are related to warriors, and there are many kinds of cultivation resources among them.
However, it seems that these are the import and export of bulk materials, and they are not mainly aimed at ordinary individual tourists.
"I see!"
Jiang Tian nodded slowly, thoughtfully.
Different from Wantong Commercial Bank, this place is mainly for large and medium-sized merchants, and it is a distribution center for cultivation resource transactions. Most of the incoming and outgoing goods are bulky batches of goods. Naturally, ordinary individual customers will not easily come here to trade.
And it was unfortunate enough for the fat steward to entrust such an important business to such a shrewd, treacherous and cunning person.
After this incident, his status will not be guaranteed. I am afraid that he will be punished by the Xiang family in the future, and the ending will definitely be quite bad.
boom!
Patriarch Xiang slid down in a flash, and came to a business firm with a thriving business.
"Lion Court!"
Jiang Tian then fell down, looked at the plaque above the lintel and nodded slowly.
This name does have a domineering aura, but he knows that today's Lion Pavilion is destined to cause a storm.
"Where is Song Xu?"
Patriarch Xiang yelled angrily, aggressively.
"Who is yelling here?"
"Who are you, do you know where this is?"
"It seems that you are also a person of status, and you are not an unknown person. If so, you should know whose property this is?"
A few warriors at the door stood with arms folded, looking at Patriarch Xiang coldly with disdain on their faces. Jiang Tian frowned when he saw it, and was speechless for a while.
