This time, An Yan's sanctions were not only imposed on the An family, but also on the Ling family and the Gu family.

For a time, this blacklist spread throughout the upper class of Donghai.

Many families that remained neutral or were not moved by the Anti-An Alliance began to be complacent, because they knew that their chance was coming, and many people began to think about currying favor with the An family.

At the same time, those families that were already on the blacklist began to feel extremely annoyed.

Smaller families could still sell some industries and develop in Nanhai Province or other places.

Larger families, regardless of resources or connections, were all in Donghai.

If they were asked to move away, it would be really painful, and this result was not something they could promise.

Among so many families, the Xiao family was the most shocked.

After receiving the news of the blacklist, the head of the Xiao family, Mrs. Xiao, immediately convened a family meeting. After the head of the Xiao family passed away two years ago, Mrs. Xiao took over.

This person has always been arbitrary, vain, and greedy for small profits.

The situation of the Xiao family was already declining, and now it has received sanctions from the An family.

It is only a matter of time before the Xiao family falls.

Old lady Xiao has two sons.

The eldest son has a son and a daughter named Xiao Hailong and Xiao Weiwei, both of whom are unmarried.

The youngest son has a daughter named Xiao Churan, who is married but has a live-in son-in-law.

The two granddaughters of the Xiao family are also stunning beauties with beautiful faces and fragrances.

They are famous goddess cousins in Donghai Province.

An Yan has only met them twice and rarely plays with them.

It is said that the live-in son-in-law of the Xiao family was recruited by the deceased old man Xiao.

I don’t know how such a beautiful granddaughter could find a live-in son-in-law.

This time, the Xiao family leaned towards Nangong Jing, which was also the attention of old lady Xiao, because she was thinking about getting close to a good family and making the Xiao family soar again.

So when she saw Nangong Jing’s anti-An alliance recruiting troops, she immediately went to flatter him, fearing that she would miss a big opportunity if she was a step slower.

As a result, now she has lost more than she gained, and the entire Xiao family has been paid for it.

Even though they knew it was Mrs. Xiao's fault, no one dared to say anything at the scene, because Mrs. Xiao's status in the family was like that of Empress Dowager Cixi, and she controlled the power and economy in her hands, and the people below didn't dare to say a word to her.

Today, Mrs. Xiao also realized that it was her fault, and she didn't feel like getting angry.

The reason why she called everyone here was to find a way to solve it.

Mrs. Xiao said in a majestic tone,

"I think you all know that the An family has issued an order to sanction us. Is there anyone among you who can solve this problem now?"

Everyone below was embarrassed, and no one dared to take on this task.

After all, not everyone dared to provoke the An family. If the An family got angry, they would be beaten to death by the servants. They deserved it.

"Don’t you have anyone willing to share the burden for the Xiao family?"

Seeing how they were afraid of the An family, Mrs. Xiao was particularly disappointed.

The Xiao family was facing such a big difficulty, but no one was willing to stand up.

She didn’t think about it herself. The An family was not a tiger, but a Tyrannosaurus Rex.

There were not many heroes who could fight tigers, let alone those who dared to hunt dragons.

Although Mrs. Xiao was disappointed, she didn’t blame them, because she understood the horror of the An family.

If there was no volunteer, she would just spend money to hire a hero to fight.

"Then I will give you some reward. I swear to the ancestors of the Xiao family that whoever can solve this problem will be promoted to the position of director of the Xiao family group."

The position of director of the Xiao family group? This is an extremely important position.

This position has always been vacant, because Mrs. Xiao doesn't want anyone to control her at all.

She wants to have the final say and the feeling of having the power to herself.
