Chapter 108 You Don’t Have a Brain
Bai Zongjun did not believe in the idea of knowing everything, and felt that sometimes his father was too obsessed with these "mysterious" things that seemed unreal.
He only wanted to obtain the treasure in the underground palace of Xingyun Temple. As for those vague illusions, he just listened to them and only a fool would take them seriously.
Although he had heard his father's description of the underground palace of Xingyun Temple since he was a child, saying that the "immortal" left something about the great way of immortality in it,
But he never believed it.
This world has developed with the help of technology, and as for those unexplainable phenomena, he chooses to ignore them.
Cultivating immortality?
It's just a crooked way.
Bai Kaibang knew what his son was thinking, but he didn't expose it.
Reality will give him a thunderbolt, which will make him grow his brain.
After arranging everything, Bai Kaibang waved goodbye to Bai Zongjun.
After he left, Bai Kaibang called Tan Xun, his assistant who had followed him for many years, into the study.
The two of them talked secretly for almost two hours. After Tan Xun left, Bai Kaibang opened the secret compartment in the study and put the contents of the box into his pocket.
From now on, he has to carry this map with him to feel at ease.
As for the copy he gave to Bai Zongjun, it was a copy, and the original is with him.
After unfolding the map, Bai Kaibang stroked it gently, with a look of greed on his face.
He closed his eyes and imagined the scene after obtaining the Xingyun Temple's cultivation secrets, standing at the pinnacle of this world, or even ruling the world.
Who doesn’t want that?
Finally, his finger stopped on the plaque of Xingyun Temple, and he said excitedly:
The Bai family has been waiting for this day for hundreds of years, and it can finally be realized in my hands.
The great way leads to eternal life.
As long as he gets the things in the underground palace, he will get the opportunity and this body will become stronger.
This is not a dream.
The Bai family will definitely succeed!
It was worth all his years of planning.
As for the Yan family, it depends on who gets the thing first, and it all depends on their ability.
Bai Kaibang knew that Bai Zongjun was only interested in the treasure in the underground palace, so he sent Tan Xun out as well.
Tomorrow he and Tan Xun will set off quietly without alerting anyone.
As for Tian Yuan, he decided to kill him if he had the chance and not keep him alive.
With Tianyuan's talent, he could probably easily learn everything in the underground palace.
How will his Bai family compete with the Yan family then?
The Bai family hasn't produced such a genius in the past few hundred years, and they need time to study the things in the underground palace.
All people and things that hinder the Bai family's progress should be eliminated.
Furthermore, that old man Yan Jinxi definitely also wants to kill Tianyuan.
The Yan family belongs to him, so how could he allow an outsider to give orders in the Yan family?
Yan Jinxi has tolerated Tianyuan over the years just to use Tianyuan to do some shady things.
Once the things in the underground palace are obtained, Tianyuan's life will be over.
Both the Bai family and the Yan family were making preparations in secret.
At the Shi family, after Jiuxiao had tricked the Meng family, he began to deal with the internal affairs of the Shi family.
He summoned the Shi family's side branches in the identity of Shi Jiuyue and asked them to go to the Shi family's ancestral hall together, intending to hold a family meeting.
Divide the Shi family's property.
Shi Baigu hired professional accountants to ensure that the side branches would get what they deserved and that the direct line would not suffer any loss.
However, when dividing the property, Shi Jiuyue will settle the matter of the side branch stealing the Shi family's map and selling it to the Yan family.
The cost will be high.
The side branch thought that they had done things perfectly, but they were still discovered by Shi Rongchuan when they were doing business with the Yan family.
They received so much money in their accounts overnight that they thought everyone was a fool?
At this time, Yang Zengyue and Chen Jiaer were guarding outside the Shi family ancestral hall, not allowing anyone to leave.
Inside the ancestral hall, Jiuxiao sat at the top seat, his face looking neither angry nor blaming.
These people's hearts have long been separated from the Shi family, so there is no point in keeping them.
Shi Jiuyue asked Shi Baigu to read out the assets that had been clearly accounted for, including all current and fixed assets without missing a single item.
After Shi Baigu finished reading, Jiuxiao opened his eyes and spoke slowly, his tone very relieved: "You all understand, right? How many things does the Shi family have in total?"
Shi Qiuhang, the leader of the side branch, glanced at the others behind him and said to Jiu Xiao with a smile, "I have heard clearly. Master Jiu will naturally be fair. However, can we make a request?"
Jiuxiao raised his eyes and glanced at Shi Qiuhang. Seeing his expression, he really wanted to beat him up.
But Jiu Xiao, who was as steady as an old dog, would not get angry so quickly. "Oh? What do you want to ask for? Tell me first."
Shi Qiuhang immediately told them the distribution plan they had previously discussed.
What the side branches want are companies and projects, and they require less for working capital.
After hearing this, Jiu Xiao cursed in his heart, "How shameless!"
Then, without even frowning, he explained the division he had made.
After hearing the last part, Shi Qiuhang's smile grew wider. He didn't expect that Shi Jiuyue would actually side with them. He felt that the side branches had suffered too much over the years, so he wanted to compensate them.
Others were also very happy when they heard it.
What could be better than getting what you want without any effort?
Jiuxiao looked at the expressions of these people and said, "Rongchuan is already in the process of handing over these businesses, and it will be completed within a week at the earliest. In addition, the Shi family will have nothing to do with you from now on. Please remember this."
Shi Qiuhang wished this were the case.
They were not happy to work for a woman like Shi Baigu.
From then on, Shi Baigu and his mother were no longer part of their Shi family.
When dealing with them, they will be even more ruthless.
Shi Qiuhang and others agreed.
Seeing that they had no objection to the distribution of property, Jiuxiao began to pursue accountability.
He took a sip of tea, exhaled, and said slowly, "Since you have no objection, then let's settle the matter of you stealing the map enshrined in the Shi family's ancestral hall and selling it to the Yan family."
Shi Qiuhang's heart skipped a beat. This matter was obviously done very secretly, so who leaked it to Shi Jiuyue?
He was mentally considering candidates, but Jiu Xiao said bluntly, "If you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself."
Shi Qiuhang heard his tone and knew that he might have obtained the key evidence.
However, he was determined to never admit that they had conspired together and put the blame on one person.
"Master Jiu, I really don't know anything about this. Who is so heartless?" In Shi Qiuhang's opinion, the map was useless.
Since it can be turned into money, why not sell it?
It's troublesome to guard such a thing.
The price offered by the Yan family is so good. A piece of tattered silk can be exchanged for so much money. It seems like a good deal.
Shi Jiuyue really doesn't know how to settle accounts.
Jiuxiao blew away the tea foam and said, "Don't try to fool me. You guys did this. Do you want to see the evidence?"
Shi Qiuhang said with a stern face: "Then please let Master Jiu show us."
