Liyue Taoist of the original god

Chapter 491: It’s hard at the beginning, then even harder (Part 1)

On the top of Aozang Mountain, the howling mountain wind swept past, blowing Shen He's disheveled hair.

Keqing has left.

For some reasons, Shen He did not give an explanation or agree to the other party's invitation, and chose to stay alone.

She kept looking at the horizon, just in a daze.

That was the direction her master left.

Shen He had a glimmer of understanding in his heart, feeling that the master's departure should be because his previous words made the master angry.

After so many things happened, she felt more and more that Ouyang was right, and it was better to talk things over.

Otherwise, the misunderstanding will get stuck and turn into unnecessary conflicts at some point.

So she chose to stay and wait for the master's return.

唳——

In the afterglow of the evening, Shen He, who had been waiting for a long time, finally heard the cry of a crane.

"master?"

Seeing Liu Yun flying at high speed from the distant horizon, Shen He felt a little surprised in his heart.

Listening to this voice, the master seems to be still angry?

Liuyun flew closer and closer. Shen He stepped forward and was about to speak, but before he could speak, he saw that Liuyun didn't stop at all. He flew directly past him and flew to the cave behind.

This is?

This situation was something Shen He had never encountered before.

Shen He, who thought his master was extremely angry, was in a dilemma for a moment.

But it was clear that she had misunderstood something.

After Liu Yun entered the cave, he said to Shen He who was still outside: "Come in."

Angry, naturally angry.

The apprentice who was brought up by himself has only been away for a year, and he has learned to contradict himself after he came back.

Liu Yun was naturally angry, but she couldn't care about that now.

The "disappearance" of the two immortals, Xieyue and Lishui, made her extremely agitated now.

She was going to explain some things to Shen He, and then go to the Great Sage of Conquering Demons to discuss it.

At the same time, Liyue Port and Guifu.

In the afterglow of the setting sun, Ningguang once again came to the gate of your mansion after many years.

"Oh, sir Tianquan is safe!" Xiaogui, who had been waiting for a long time, hurried forward to greet him.

"I'm really sorry. Although your greeting card was sent at noon, the young lady only received it in the afternoon. She is changing clothes in the backyard at the moment, so I am the only one waiting for you here. It is really rude."

"It doesn't matter." Ning Guang looked at the gate of your mansion in front of you, sighing a little in your heart.

As luck would have it, because of her delicate relationship with Ouyang, she has not been able to enter your house again for several years.

She was a little uneasy before coming. With Ouyang's unabashed "turning away" approach before, she thought that this visit would not go well, but now that she heard Xiaogui's words, she knew that she

This time I won’t be turned away.

At this moment, Xue Lian, dressed in formal attire, came from the front hall in a hurry.

"Welcome, welcome" Xue Lian said with a smile on her face and couldn't help but accompany her.

"My child has been running away these days. As a mother, I am worried, so I went with him today. It will be too late to come back when I receive the news. I'm really sorry! Please come in first."

"It doesn't matter, I just arrived."

The other party's attitude was polite, and Ningguang didn't put on any airs. The two of them crossed the threshold in a friendly manner and walked inside.

Ning Guang glanced around casually and found that your mansion had not changed much over the past few years, but that it had just accumulated a few more years. It seemed that everything in the mansion was increasingly imprinted with the mark of time.

Each flower and each grass is pleasing to the eye, and at the same time, it also has a hint of "harmony" as a whole.

Xue Lian, who was slightly behind by half a body, still said without forgetting to apologize: "It made Master Ningguang laugh, because I received the news too late, and I didn't even have time to clean it up, and I didn't have time to prepare, so

Everything is a bit crude, which is really disrespectful and negligent.”

Xue Lian did not put on any high profile, and seemed extremely polite in both words and actions.

But it was this politeness that made Ningguang sigh in his heart.

She understood that the estrangement between herself and Ouyang was obviously known to the noble family, so they had this polite alienation.

But she didn't care either.

I came here today to do some work. If there is any negligence or anything else, you can put these aside for now.

Even if the politeness at the moment is just a disguise, it doesn't matter.

Getting things done is the key.

So Ningguang shook his head slightly, and said with the same politeness: "Mrs. Xue Lian, you are so polite. I am indeed a bit abrupt when I come here this time, and I still have a request for you this time, so you don't have to be like this."

"I'm serious. So you came to me for a serious matter?"

"There are some things that I need Mrs. Xue Lian's help with. Can we find a place to discuss it in detail first?"

"Okay, please come with me."

The greeting card sent by Ningguang did not state the purpose of his visit, but only said that he wanted to have a meal with Xue Lian.

Although she guessed that something happened, the way Ningguang mentioned it at the moment, it seemed that it was not a small matter.

So she was confused, turned a corner at the front hall with Ning Guang, and walked in another direction.

When it comes to privacy, it is naturally most appropriate to go to the study room.

But Xue Lian didn't dare.

Although Ouyang has not emphasized it and it is not used much, almost no one goes in and out at will.

The housekeeper Xiaogui does the daily cleaning by herself.

Fortunately, your mansion is large enough. In addition to "useless things" such as pavilions, pavilions, gardens and gardens that occupy a huge area, there are also many houses in your mansion.

After briefly exchanging a few words with the maid who was standing not far away, waiting for the summons, Xue Lian led Ning Guang to a relatively quiet room.

The two of them had just sat down, and before Xue Lian could say a few more polite words, Ning Guang, who was aware of it, said politely: "There is no need to say more about those polite words. I also came here with something to do, and you are so kind to me."

I seem a little stronger."

"Uh, okay" Xue Lian smiled apologetically and took back what she wanted to say.

She was puzzled by this meeting.

Especially now that she knew that Ning Guang was specifically looking for her, she was even more puzzled.

Because if it was a serious matter, he should go to the head of the family, but Ningguang went to her instead.

Moreover, the estrangement between the head of the family and Ning Guang is not a big secret in the house.

All of these things made her always polite and careful at the moment.

I don't want to lose etiquette, nor do I want to make the head of the family unhappy when he finds out about it because the reception is too grand.

Seeing that Ning Guang seemed to be trying to talk things out, Xue Lian calmed down and asked directly.

"I wonder if Master Tianquan came to see me specifically for something?"

"Ouyang said at the Seven Star meeting before that in the future, Seven Star will be allowed to invest in your family's trading platform, thus transferring this platform to Seven Star. Your family will only have half of the shares. Does Mrs. Xue Lian know about this?"

"I know." Xue Lian nodded, "When the head of the family went to the meeting yesterday, he told me before leaving and said that he would leave it to me after that. What's wrong?"

"Two days later, I will discuss some cooperation matters with the businessmen gathered in the square in front of Yiyan Palace. This platform is the most important part. I hope that you, as one of the persons in charge, can be present."

"Isn't this appropriate?"

Xue Lian hesitated.

She didn't want to get involved in the decision-making between Qixing.

Xue Lian actually couldn't understand why Ouyang wanted to hand over his family's most profitable trade route.

But she won't object to this.

And she remembered that what Ouyang said was that the platform would belong to Qixing from now on. Although your family holds the last half of the shares, the ownership is no longer with your family.

The reason why this matter was handed over to her was more symbolic than practical.

A simple explanation is that they are similar to special correspondents sent to other companies. They only have a little supervisory authority, but they are actually equivalent to mascots.

The specific operation is determined by the seven stars and has little to do with your family.

That's why she hesitated.

But Ning Guang didn't think so.

What she wants is the hard power behind your family’s current potential!

Although she is not willing to make everything under the water of your family public, she is not satisfied with Xue Lian being just a mascot.

Ningguang's plan was to slowly bind Ouyang behind Xue Lian.

She really needs Ouyang!

Whether in terms of policy or business decision-making, the two of them complement each other so well!

So even if Ouyang has become a demon, even if Ouyang's existence is in fundamental conflict with her philosophy of human governance, and even if Ouyang previously wanted to "general" herself through this assessment, she still hopes to slowly deepen her relationship with Ouyang through various means.

cooperate.

Therefore, after seeing Xue Lian's hesitation, Ningguang immediately said with a smile.

"You don't have to worry. The handover of this matter is very hasty now, and Qixing cannot fully control it for a while. It just so happens that Ouyang chooses you to represent your family, so naturally you need to be present."

"However, I don't fully understand this matter. The owner of this platform told me yesterday. At present, I haven't even read the complete flow chart and where the stores in each country are. This

.I’m afraid it would be bad if I delayed you for anything, right?”

"It is naturally impossible to fully understand such a big thing in a short period of time, and the complete implementation must be officially implemented after the Hailantern Festival. But it is precisely because of this that in this initial stage, it is more important to

I need your presence, are you right?"

"This" Xue Lian was moved.

Because Ning Guang is telling the truth.

After this is implemented, your family's income will plummet.

This does not mean that your family will no longer trade. Naturally, your family can continue to do this route.

The entire family business can still continue to operate, but with the addition of other businessmen from Liyue, your family's share will naturally be reduced accordingly.

For the benefit of your family, she needs to at least understand everything emotionally and rationally.

This is also the reason why she was sent to take over the supervision.

But in this case, she had to think more about it.

Again, Xue Lian was very clear about her own position, and she did not want to interfere in the decision-making between Qixing.

One is her sensitive status. The head of the family is Qixing, so she will definitely cause problems if she talks nonsense.

Another thing is that she has only seen the tip of the iceberg of your family's strength under the water, just like she can't understand the master's approach of handing over his trade route.

She didn't want to disrupt Ouyang's layout because of her existence.

Yes, Xue Lian's thinking towards the head of the family, Ouyang, is relatively "Dihua".

After Dao's wife came back this time, because Ouyang delegated power, she began to understand everything about the family, and she began to be more and more shocked.

In just a few years, the genius who was only mentioned by a few literati in Liyue had grown into a powerful demon god.

In terms of status, he has also reached the top circle of Liyue - Qixing. (Xue Lian does not know about the transfer of power.)

The family is involved in all aspects of Liyue.

Strength, power, mora, etc., all of this was completed within a few years after Ouyang took over the family!

It was impossible not to make Xue Lian think too much.

Therefore, she believed that everything the head of the family was doing now had deep meaning, and in order not to destroy the plan of the head of the house that she could not figure out, she was determined to only do what the head of the house had set for her and never step out of it.

This range is one step.

He won’t even do the testing!

Therefore, if Ningguang just wanted her to exercise her supervisory authority, she could just send someone to inform her. There was no need to come to the door in person and invite her to attend so carefully.

She thought that Ning Guang must have other plans, so even though it seemed logical now, she still felt the need to attend, but she still refused.

"This is still not good." Xue Lian's brain was working rapidly and she slowly explained, "Guiping and Gui'an have always been responsible for your family's foreign trade. The matter of this trade route still has to wait for them.

After I return to the house again, I can fully understand it after communicating with them."

"It is only then that your family can truly complete the handover with Seven Stars. Therefore, my premature appearance does not seem to be a good thing. After all, the owner said that after the platform, it will belong to Seven Stars, and your family will only receive half of the profit dividends at most.

.”

It was a bit far-fetched to refuse with this reason, but for a moment Xue Lian could only think of this reason.

And after she finished speaking, in order not to make the scene too embarrassing, she added.

"From what you said before, it seems that what happens two days later is also a preliminary discussion. I won't stop it. After all, starting from yesterday, this can already be regarded as belonging to the Seven Stars."

But if you don’t go, things won’t be shocking.

Ningguang fell silent after listening to Xue Lian's words.

She came to the door in person just to ensure that Xue Lian would be there.

Because she needs Xue Lian to say something on behalf of your family.

Although with her Tianquan status, the effect of those words was similar from her own perspective, but it did not have the "final word" effect.

The purpose of the discussion after two days was to attract Liyue merchants and use a large amount of decisive and shocking news to hold them back, so as to squeeze out time to conduct exploration on the sea.

This is the most basic purpose. As for the binding with Ouyang, it is her selfish intention.

But she didn't expect that Xue Lian would refuse again and again.

The continuous high-intensity work made her unable to control her fatigue at this moment, and she slowly closed her eyes.

Things happened one after another, and she began to feel a little exhausted.

"Lord Ningguang?"

Seeing Ningguang's haggard look with her eyes closed, Xue Lian felt sorry in her heart, but still said carefully: "I'm sorry for rejecting your proposal, but at the moment, I really can't agree to it."

"Are you concerned?"

"Eh?!"

Ning Guang opened his eyes and his expression returned to his usual appearance.

She looked at Xue Lian and said bluntly: "Are you worried about something? You can tell me that your presence is very important. The discussion in two days' time must go perfectly. So, please tell me, these are the things we

You can talk about everything!”

Everything is difficult at the beginning, and then it becomes even harder!

but!

I, Ning Guang, must hold on!

At this moment, Xue Lian saw an indescribable and powerful confidence in Ningguang's eyes.

Ababa Ababa…
