Chapter 685 Chapter 687 Heir
"These three are selected and booked by me. You can choose one from them and I will arrange it for you." President Jingyuan said.
"Then let's choose the Guzhu secret place!" Rong Xianxian made a decision quickly. The secret place is rich in resources and has sufficient spiritual energy. It is the best choice if you want to improve the team's strength.
"You have a good vision. I fought hard to get this place. But if you go here, I suggest you complete the task of collecting the poisonous miasma first, or find a way to break the poisonous miasma before exploring the secret realm. Don't underestimate the harm of this poisonous miasma." President Jingyuan warned.
"Okay, President, I understand!" Rong Xianxian agreed.
"President, I passed by Xiangshan Town on my way to the capital. The team led by the former head of the regiment was stationed there. Shouldn't the Pingyuanshan mining area be under his supervision? Has he changed his defense area now?" Rong Xianxian asked.
"I don't know about this. Are you friends with Captain Fang? If you want to know, you can ask Chief of Staff Wen." President Jingyuan said.
"We've met once, but we can't be considered close friends. President, when should I leave for the base?" Rong Xianxian asked.
"You have just returned to Beijing. You should rest in the capital for a few days first. You can set off after the commendation meeting is held!" At that time, there will be five other six-star civilian mercenary groups leaving Beijing together.
Rong Xianxian left after choosing her residence. She was busy with official business as soon as she returned to the capital and had not yet visited her home. She had just walked out of the gate of the United Front Work Committee and saw He Wen waiting for her beside a tall off-road vehicle. She walked towards He Wen, and more than a dozen people came out from the side and blocked her way. Leading the way was a gray-haired, spirited old man. Although the old man was leaning on a purple sandalwood cane in his hand, his back was straight, his legs and feet were nimble, and he looked dignified and upright.
"Doctor Rong, I am Qingyun's grandfather. You ignored my invitation, so I had no choice but to come here in person." When Mr. Ning saw Rong Xianxian's confused expression, he knew that Rong Xianxian really didn't know who he was, so he simply introduced himself.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Ning, I don't think there's any need for us to have any contact with each other. Qingyun doesn't want me to have anything to do with you!" When Rong Xianxian heard what Mr. Ning said, she had some guesses about his purpose.
"Qingyun is angry with his family. As his wife, shouldn't you give him more advice? After all, they are blood relatives and the blood relationship cannot be severed. If they don't recognize their ancestors, they will be like rootless duckweed and will not last long!" said Grandpa Ning earnestly.
Ning Qingyun was in this situation. When Rong Xianxian heard what Old Man Ning said, she felt like he was cursing him. Rong Xianxian's face turned cold. "So what if there are ancestors in the family? If the descendants are all unfilial, no matter how powerful the ancestors are, they can't last long."
Chen Lishu had already reported to Rong Xianxian about Third Master Ning's attempt to forcibly take Xiao Luo away. In addition, Rong Xianxian had previously investigated the basic situation of the Ning family, so she was aware of the current situation of the Ning family. In addition to Ning Qingyun, there were four other third-generation direct descendants of the Ning family, but they had no talent in practicing martial arts. Ning Qingjun and Ning Qingsong's talent scores were both below 80 points, so they could only practice ordinary basic martial arts, and they were only Chongmai realm practitioners until now.
Moreover, although all of them have married, among the four brothers, only Ning Qingjun has a daughter and Ning Qinghan has a son. The two children are five and six years old respectively. After testing with spirit stones, it was found that the two children have poor talents, one is less than 80 points and the other barely reached 60 points. As for Xiao Luo and Xuan Xuan, although they have not been tested, one of them has awakened the natural energy of ice attribute and the other has awakened the natural energy of fire attribute, and both of them are Qi Bridge Realm practitioners. Even if Rong Xianxian never let the two children undergo any tests, these basic information cannot be concealed.
Mr. Ning San had previously forcibly snatched Xiao Luo at the school gate, not because he wanted to harm the child. They just wanted to get close to the child and coax him into recognizing them.
"You are right. If the family wants to be passed down, it is useless to rely on the glory of the ancestors. We also need descendants who are willing to live up to their reputation."
"I'm old, and my legs and feet don't move very well. Since I've made this trip in person despite my age, can we go to the teahouse over there and talk?" Old Man Ning tapped his calf with his cane and said with some emotion.
Rong Xianxian looked around. Mr. Ning had brought a lot of people with him. It would not look good if there was a quarrel in public, so she decided to go and listen to what he wanted to say.
The owner of the teahouse was warm and respectful when he saw Mr. Ning. Perhaps the Ning family had already informed them, and the owner took them directly to a suite on the third floor. This location was quiet and secluded, and the objects inside were exquisitely furnished, and it looked magnificent.
"The teahouse here is our family's property. We have many more teahouses, restaurants and different types of shops like this. We bought them all when the Beijing Security Zone was first established. Not to mention how much profit we can make from the business of welcoming and seeing off guests, the value of the pile of deeds in the safe at home is inestimable. You should know how much effort you put in to buy the deeds to Sibaolou!" Grandpa Ning said proudly.
Rong Xianxian smiled and didn't respond.
"As long as you are willing to let the child recognize his ancestors, these industries including family power will be inherited by Xiao Luo in the future. Before the child comes of age, I can even hand all these things over to you. What do you think?" Grandpa Ning asked hopefully.
"Not very good, Mr. Ning. Your Ning family's business can be inherited by anyone you want. Qingyun is not interested, and my son is even less interested. If this is what you want to say to me, then I have made my meaning very clear. Goodbye!" Rong Xianxian stood up and pulled out a chair to leave.
As the world environment changed, the rules of survival also changed. No matter how much money the Ning family has, if they don't have ambitious descendants, they will only be slowly eaten away.
"Wait, I know you are doing well with Jingyuan now, but you have to know that you cannot put all your eggs in one basket. Jingyuan rose to power by relying on the skills and treasures he obtained by hunting outsiders. You see how powerful he is now, but actually there are hidden dangers. He is a thorn in the eyes of all outsiders. Those outsiders all have superpowers and appear and disappear at will. He looks glorious, but actually he can't even sleep well. If he has an accident one day, I won't be surprised at all." Old Master Ning said slowly.
