"We didn't have much of a relationship originally, but this time my master ordered me to go out and purchase some cultivation items for the academy. According to the contract, I should have cooperated with the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce. However, the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce was established not long ago, and I was afraid that its limited strength would hinder the important matters of my academy. So I contacted several other chambers of commerce. The Yuan family has a deep foundation in business for generations, so they are also among them." Ye Fengyun said.
Mu Hanyan's heart sank. She remembered that Wenren Qingqiu hadn't said that. According to their contract, the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce would only contact other chambers of commerce if it couldn't supply Longyan College's needs. But Ye Fengyun had contacted other chambers of commerce without even asking, clearly using a feather as a token of authority to deliberately embarrass the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce.
"So that's how it is. Then I feel relieved. Nanyan Chamber of Commerce has nothing to do with me anyway. Since Mr. Ye has made this decision, he must have his reasons. As an outsider, I naturally have no right to say anything." Mu Hanyan nodded and said calmly.
The experiences of her past life had made Mu Hanyan's character far more mature than she appeared. It also taught her a lesson: never reveal your full strength until the very last moment, and always leave yourself one last chance to save your life.
There are undercurrents in Black Stone City. He doesn't want the Mu family to repeat the mistakes of the previous life. The existence of the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce may come in handy at a critical moment.
She was not worried that someone would guess her relationship with the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce from some clues. She was the most dissolute playboy in Black Stone City. To eat, drink, have fun, and keep a few lackeys, she had to be rich. Taking advantage of her status as the eldest son of the City Lord's Mansion, colluding with officials and businessmen to profit from it, wasn't that normal?
"That's true. By the way, I wonder why Mr. Mu came to the Yuan family's villa today?" Ye Fengyun nodded and said calmly.
"I heard that several servants from the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce were beaten by people from Young Master Yuan's mansion. I would like to ask Young Master Yuan if he knows about this?" Mu Hanyan said.
"Are you here to seek justice for the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce?" Yuan Tianbo asked.
"Didn't I say it all? I have nothing to do with the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce. It's not my turn to seek justice. Besides, my father is the mayor of Black Stone City. How could I do such an illegal thing as causing trouble and seeking revenge in private?" Mu Hanyan said.
"Then what do you want to do?" Yuan Tianbo couldn't help but interrupt.
"Oh, that's what happened. I heard that the person who injured those people was very powerful. Coincidentally, the strength of my two personal bodyguards has also improved recently, and I want to find someone to practice with." Mu Hanyan said with a giggle.
Mu Nan's eyes lit up, and he secretly slapped his forehead. In Anyun Country, from the royal family and the wealthy to the common people and peddlers, stirring up trouble, seeking revenge, and resorting to violence were all forbidden by law. However, sparring between swordsmen was different. Once a battle agreement was signed, not even the king of a country could interfere.
In fact, many grievances between noble families were resolved in this way. However, Mu Nan was previously filled with anger and was only thinking about revenge for those guards, so he didn't think of this.
"Really? I'm sorry, I don't know who injured the people from Nanyan Chamber of Commerce. You've got the wrong person." Yuan Tianbo certainly would not admit that he was the one who did it, and said with a forced smile.
"It doesn't matter. I heard that the leader of the Yuan family guards is also quite powerful. It's just the same if he comes to spar with us." Mu Hanyan had already made up her mind to teach Yuan Tianbo a severe lesson today. Otherwise, the good situation that the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce had just built up might be lost. How could she let him brush it off with a few words? She said with a friendly smile on her face, not giving in.
