The color is so perfect, without any flaws, it's completely natural and has no crystallization.
Translucent, lustrous, and clear, with a pure and noble green hue, it is a rare and top-tier treasure.
This Pixiu, which is now in the Su family's possession, is an extremely valuable treasure!
The old man in his household had his eye on this Pixiu and wanted to buy it from the Su family at a high price, but the Su family also regarded it as a treasure and had no intention of selling it.
He was thinking that if that little girl could produce a second one like this Pixiu, wouldn't that satisfy the old man in his household?
Of course, if they could get in touch with the little girl, it wouldn't just be to satisfy the old man's selfish desires, but also to open up the Tang family's market in Tianqi and even the two small countries of Shalos and Ilant, and elevate the Tang family's status once again.
The Apocalypse is secondary; the most important things are the two small countries of Saros and Ilant.
Although the Tang family is quite famous in Tianqi and holds an absolute position.
However, between the two small countries of Shalos and Ilante, the more famous family was not the Tang family, but the He family of Hongcheng.
The He family of Hongcheng may seem unassuming in Tianqi, merely possessing the reputation of a wealthy family, but in Shalos and Elante, their business reputation and status are absolute, something the Tang family simply cannot shake.
This has always been a thorn in the side of the Tang family.
If they could find out the source of the goods in this little girl's possession, then the Tang family's status in Shalos and Ilante would surpass that of the He family in Red City.
Of course, this is not something that can be asked so easily.
No sane businessman would reveal the source of the goods, allowing other businessmen to steal their profits.
Moreover, judging from this girl's repeated attitudes, she seems to have no intention of having any dealings with the Tang family and doesn't want to get involved with them at all. Therefore, it's even more impossible to get information out of her. So, the Tang family has already made other preparations to pry out the source of the goods.
The Tang family's rise to its current size and influence is not solely due to the presence of women; some underhanded tactics have also been indispensable.
Sometimes it's necessary to resort to underhanded methods to resolve the situation.
Take this little girl for example. The Tang family must seize the initiative and get ahead of everyone else, before they can make a move against her, and take control of the little girl.
Of course, for the time being, extreme measures are not necessarily required. After all, that little girl is Yu Xiao's niece, and Yu Xiao is the emperor's man. The emperor still gives the Tang family some face.
The emperor gave the Tang family face, and the Tang family naturally wouldn't lose face in return. If they could resolve the issue peacefully, they would naturally be happy to use gentle methods.
Tang Muting drank the tea in the teacup in one gulp, intending to use this young master of the Tang family to get to know Yu Xiao's little niece.
**
Tang Dingsheng was naturally impatient with Tang Muting chasing after him, but when he heard Tang Muting say that he wanted to hold a small banquet at the Tang residence to entertain Yan Qingxue and the others, Tang Dingsheng readily agreed without hesitation.
Yan Qingxue was somewhat flattered when she heard this news from Yu Xiao.
"Huh? Me? I'm getting this kind of treatment? The Tang family is being way too nice to me!" Yan Qingxue pointed to her nose, somewhat incredulous. She knew what kind of family the Tang family was; they were, after all, one of the top families among the thirteen prestigious clans.
How did she, an ordinary young lady from a prestigious family, manage to catch their eye and be invited to dine with them?
Anle smiled and tilted her head, saying, "They've already called for Young Master Bai, and you're not the only one. Hurry up and inform Young Master Bai so you can all come together."
Yan Qingxue raised an eyebrow and put her hands on her hips. "So, does that mean Bai Naijiong, and you two kids, all benefited from my fame?"
Anle blinked slightly, then nodded and grinned, "Yes, we've all benefited from your help. Let's hurry up and inform them, we have to go tomorrow. It's good to know early so we can make plans and arrangements, and Mr. Bai can also make time for tomorrow."
The next morning, Yan Qingxue, accompanied by Xiaoya, arrived at the Tang family's house with great pride and high spirits.
Bai Naijiong, on the other hand, looked puzzled, as if he couldn't quite figure out what the Tang family meant or what they wanted to do.
Based on the Tang family's usual practices, they would never do such a thing, because they wouldn't get any benefit from those younger members, right?
Although his family was one of the thirteen prestigious families, he was not even considered a prominent figure among them, merely a son of a concubine.
Bai Naijiong thought for a moment, then his gaze involuntarily turned to An Le.
Could it be—
A possibility occurred to Bai Naijiong, and he suddenly realized.
If that's the case, then it makes sense. The Tang family's real intention wasn't to host a banquet for them.
It seems there's only one purpose: to get rid of this little kid.
After all, the news in the capital and Baicheng these past two days has been all about the Su family acquiring a Pixiu.
Moreover, the Su family hosted such a grand banquet that everyone knew the Su family possessed a treasure that was coveted by all the thirteen prestigious families.
This matter had become a hot topic of discussion in the Bai family.
According to rumors he heard from his own family, the treasure that the Su family obtained was because the eldest daughter of the Su family, who married into the Yu family, had miscarried.
Feeling apologetic, Commander Yu prepared a grand gift and personally visited the thirteen prestigious sects to express his remorse. The grand gift he prepared was, of course, the Pixiu ornament that had astonished them.
According to Commander Yu, the ornament was taken from his little niece.
This little niece is none other than the 'little rich girl' right in front of us.
Previously at the casino, because of her third brother's matter, he saw her pull out so many silver notes on the spot. At that time, he felt that this little girl was not as simple as he thought. He never expected that she could come up with such a shocking move.
It's no surprise that such a large investment would attract the attention of the Tang family.
The Tang family has probably set their sights on that piece of jade, or rather, they probably have their eyes on the jade supply that this little girl has.
If that's the case...
Bai Naijiong's expression turned serious. Seeing the Tang family's gate in front of him, Bai Naijiong's legs felt like they were filled with lead, so heavy that he couldn't take a step.
Letting out a breath, Bai Naijiong stared at An Le and pursed his lips.
"Lele, come with me for a moment."
