Zhang Debiao was slightly taken aback, seemingly not expecting that someone like Xuanyuan Zhan would only marry one wife.
Judging from his attire, you can tell that his family must be quite wealthy. Nowadays, let alone rich young masters, even officials and county yamen runners all need to take two concubines to save face!
This guy is not only handsome, but his family is obviously rich, so how come he married a wife?
Moreover, judging from the way this guy talks about his wife and children, it's clear he cares deeply for them.
This is definitely a good thing for him; if he wants to use him, he has to be able to control him.
This kid is very skilled in martial arts. He probably can't control him on his own. But he has a wife and children. If he can't control this kid, can't he control his wife and children?
Upon thinking this, Zhang Debiao immediately smiled at Xuan Yuanzhan and said, "Bloodline inheritance is a great thing. I congratulate you in advance, Third Brother."
"Thank you, brother!" Xuan Yuanzhan loved hearing such words, and he addressed him as "brother" with even more affection.
"Come, come, let's have some tea."
Zhang Debiao instantly became even more enthusiastic.
The two kept calling him "elder brother" and "third brother," which made Zhao Wanqing's face turn pale.
This kid is really something. He managed to charm the boss into a daze with just two calls of "Big Brother."
He just couldn't understand how amazing this kid was that the boss would dote on him like that!
There are many bandits in the mountains, so they are very efficient at getting things done.
The welcoming banquet began before it even got dark.
That night, Zhang Debiao kept toasting Xuan Yuanzhan, and Xuan Yuanzhan, unusually, drank quite a bit in return.
After finishing a jar of wine, Xuan Yuanzhan seemed to be drunk.
"Young Master." Ye Yun nudged Xuan Yuanzhan, who was slumped on the table and unresponsive, and then looked anxiously at Zhang Debiao: "Boss, our young master is drunk. Could you please arrange a room for him?"
"Rooms are available, of course."
Zhang Debiao hadn't expected that Xuan Yuanzhan couldn't hold his liquor.
But thinking about it, it makes sense. This rich young master is from the capital. How could he possibly drink as much as those bandits from the north?
Zhang Debiao called over a bandit: "Take the third leader back to his room."
"Yes." The bandit replied, and together with Ye Yun, helped Xuan Yuanzhan back to his room.
It was supposed to be a room prepared for Xuan Yuanzhan, but it was actually just the room of the former third leader. It was simply tidied up and turned into Xuan Yuanzhan's room.
"Thank you." After thanking the bandit, Ye Yun helped Xuan Yuanzhan to bed.
The bandit glanced at the unconscious Xuan Yuanzhan and laughed, "You're too kind. We bandits don't stand on ceremony. Just let us know if you need anything. I won't disturb the Third Master's rest any longer."
After the bandit left, Xuan Yuanzhan, who had been unconscious, suddenly opened his eyes.
"Your Highness."
Ye Yun quickly went over and closed the door. When he turned around, Xuan Yuanzhan was already sitting at the table.
"Your Highness, you're not drunk!" Ye Yun quickly took out the small white jade teacup and poured tea for Xuan Yuanzhan.
"That little bit of wine can't get me drunk?" Xuan Yuanzhan's hazy eyes were clear at this moment, showing no sign of drunkenness.
Ye Yun breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that Xuan Yuanzhan wasn't drunk.
This is a bandit's den. If the prince gets drunk and encounters any danger, it will be troublesome.
Now that the prince is conscious, no matter how great the danger, as long as the prince is there, it is not a problem.
"Your Highness, why did you enter this bandit's den?" Ye Yun didn't know what Xuan Yuanzhan wanted to do by entering this bandit's den.
They're just bandits. No matter how many there are, once their 100,000 elite troops arrive, they'll surely wipe them all out. Why would they need the prince to act as an inside agent for this bandit den?
Xuanyuan Zhan took a sip of tea before saying, "I am interested in their big business. Do you know what kind of big business they are involved in?"
"What?" Ye Yun had no idea about these bandits' business.
Xuanyuan Zhan smiled mysteriously, but said nothing more.
Outside, Zhao Wanqing was also complaining to Zhang Debiao: "Brother, aren't you spoiling this kid too much? Look at how arrogant he is, he doesn't take you seriously at all!"
Zhang Debiao didn't take it seriously: "They have the right to be arrogant."
...Zhao Wanqing was speechless, then his eyes lit up and he said, "Since this kid is so powerful, should we spread the word and enhance the prestige of our Silver Tiger Stronghold?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Debiao perked up: "Second brother, you're the smartest. I'll leave this to you. Within three days, I want every bandit stronghold in the north to know that a formidable figure has arrived at Silver Tiger Stronghold!"
Zhao Wanqing smiled gently: "Don't worry, brother. The news will spread throughout the entire northern region within three days."
Once this news gets out, many people will definitely come to Silver Tiger Stronghold to challenge this kid. He wants to see just how powerful this kid's martial arts really are!
I must say, Zhao Wanqing is quite capable.
The next morning, just as dawn broke, a bandit rushed in to report: "Boss, Second Boss, there are several bandits from Black Panther Village and Wolf Fang Village outside, calling out that they want to have a duel with our new Third Boss."
Zhang Debiao looked at Zhao Wanqing with some surprise: "I just asked you to do something yesterday, and those people already heard about it this morning. That's too fast."
Zhao Wanqing was overjoyed: "Didn't Brother say within three days? Now is the best time for our Silver Tiger Stronghold to make a name for itself!"
These words struck a chord with Zhang Debiao: "Let's go take a look!"
Thinking of something, Zhang Debiao ordered the bandit, "Go and invite the third leader out as well."
"Yes," the bandit replied, and went to fetch his men.
Xuanyuan Zhan was watching the bandits train in the training ground outside.
Standing behind Xuan Yuanzhan, Ye Yun watched the bandits drill and said, "I must say, they're actually quite skilled, they look pretty convincing!"
Xuan Yuanzhan raised an eyebrow noncommittally: "The largest bandit stronghold in the North has its reasons for becoming so powerful!"
Zhang Debiao may not seem like much, but he must be quite good at managing these bandits, and he must be very generous and kind to his subordinates.
The fact that he was willing to share half of the profits shows that he is quite generous and has a fairly good mind.
So it's not entirely without reason that they were able to grow so big.
"Third Master".
The bandits searched all around before finally finding Xuan Yuanzhan at the training ground.
Xuanyuan Zhan hadn't reacted at first; this person was calling him. He quickly replied, "What is it?"
The bandit caught his breath and pointed to the gate of Silver Tiger Stronghold: "Something's happened outside. People from Black Panther Stronghold and Wolf Fang Stronghold have come to challenge you."
Ye Yun's eyes twitched upon hearing this.
Challenge their prince?
Are these people crazy?!
Xuanyuan Zhan smiled wickedly.
He only arrived at Silver Tiger Stronghold yesterday, and someone has already come to challenge him today. It's quite interesting!
"Let's go take a look!"
Xuanyuan Zhan then led Ye Yun and the bandit out.
