"What?" Although Patriarch Fang had no intention of selling his property, and certainly no longer had the qualifications to do so, he was still stunned by such shameless words. He hadn't expected that a prince like him would actually say such demeaning words.
"Old Fang, are you still unwilling? Let me tell you, a man is guilty of possessing a treasure even if he is innocent. Not to mention that your Fang family has declined now, even the Fang family in the past was not qualified to occupy such a Feng Shui treasure land. If you don't know when to advance or retreat and insist on holding on to it, it will sooner or later bring disaster upon your family.
"The Fifth Prince purchased your territory for the benefit of your Fang family. If you're sensible, you should quickly express your gratitude and hand over the deed. Given the Fifth Prince's kindness, he might even share some of the benefits with you if he's in a better mood," Rong Tianhai continued.
Patriarch Fang's chest heaved and his face flushed with anger.
If the Fifth Prince was not aware of the value of this territory, then it would be understandable for him to purchase it at the original price. However, since they even said that an innocent man is guilty of possessing a treasure, they must be very clear about the value of this territory. They even dared to make such unreasonable arguments, which was really too much.
Although this territory was already Mu Hanyan's property and he had no right to decide whether to sell it or not, he was still indignant when he saw the despicable behavior of the Fifth Prince and others.
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Highness the Fifth Prince. However, I have already said that the Fang family's assets have been sold to others, so I cannot make the decision on this matter. Please go back." The head of the Fang family suppressed his anger and said coldly. When he looked at the Fifth Prince, there was no longer the respect he had before, only contempt.
"Old man Fang, now that things have come to this, you still dare to make excuses and be ignorant of the current situation!" Rong Tianhai was furious when he heard this.
"Since you said you would sell it to someone else, I won't say any more to you. Please invite the person out and I will discuss it with him in person." The Fifth Prince was very unhappy when he saw that the head of the Fang family refused to change his words and clearly did not give him face, so he said coldly.
"The person who bought the Fang family's property is not here, and I can't find him." The head of the Fang family hesitated and said.
Although Mu Hanyan is the grandson of the head of the Mu clan, he only found out after chatting with Qu Shanling several times that Mu Hanyan had been exiled to the remote Black Stone City with his parents since he was young. Now he has returned to the capital for the first time. He is afraid that his foothold in the clan is not stable and is not as glorious as he originally thought.
The Fifth Prince was a member of the royal family after all. He was grateful to Mu Hanyan for taking him in and helping him, and was afraid that it would cause him trouble.
Unfortunately, he had not been in the capital for a long time and was cut off from the news. He did not know how famous Mu Hanyan was in the capital now, and he did not know that his worries were completely unnecessary.
"Then tell me who that person is and I will go see him in person." The fifth prince said unhappily.
"That person has a special identity. I can't tell you without his permission." Seeing that the fifth prince was not giving in, the head of the Fang family was even more reluctant to reveal Mu Hanyan's identity, and said firmly.
Seeing that he was so persistent, the Fifth Prince's face became extremely ugly.
"Old man Fang, I think you are just looking for excuses to fool the Fifth Prince!" Rong Tianhai had previously flattered the Fifth Prince, saying that as long as the Fifth Prince's name was mentioned, the head of the Fang family would cry and shout to produce the land deed. He never expected that the result would be like this in the end. Seeing the Fifth Prince's ugly face, he cursed as if he had suffered a great humiliation.
"Thanks to the kindness of the Fifth Prince, you actually don't appreciate it. You have to take the kindness of the Prince for granted. Are you really senile and confused?" Another young master from the Jianwei Mansion also cursed.
The other followers were also filled with anger, cursing non-stop. Although they also looked down on the Fifth Prince's actions, when it came to their own interests, they didn't care about right or wrong.
For a moment, there was constant cursing outside the market, and the place was in chaos.
The fifth prince frowned. Patriarch Fang's resolute refusal was beyond his expectations and made him feel a little embarrassed.
Although Rong Tianhai and the others were cursing furiously, Patriarch Fang remained unmoved, and showed no intention of changing his tune. If this continued, he would either return empty-handed or be forced to resort to force.
Returning empty-handed would certainly deal a further blow to his reputation, but using force wouldn't necessarily help matters either.
"Shut up, everyone." Just when he was in a dilemma, Nian Anyao shouted coldly.
Looking at Rong Tianhai and the others, who were talking so much, Nian Anyao secretly felt disdain in his heart. They were indeed just descendants of small families, they had never seen much of the world, and they were a little too petty.
Although the cursing was lively, it was of no use other than venting some anger and resentment. If you don't show some real strength to deal with an old man like the head of the Fang family who is stubborn and doesn't respond, how can you make him surrender?
After being yelled at by Nian Anyao, Rong Tianhai and others immediately shut up. Although they had not cursed enough, they did not dare to disobey him. After all, he had been famous in the capital for decades and was completely on a different level from them.
"Old Patriarch Fang, the Fifth Prince is doing this for your own good. I think you'd better hand over the land deed honestly." Nian Anyao snorted coldly and said indifferently.
"You are..." Seeing that Nian Anyao opened the button first, Rong Tianhai and others fell silent. The head of the Fang family knew that this old man was of great importance and did not dare to neglect him.
"My name is Nian Anyao." Nian Anyao said proudly.
"It turns out to be Master Nian! I am honored to meet you." Patriarch Fang had not expected that the Fifth Prince could persuade a master like Nian Anyao to work for him. He was surprised and saluted quickly.
Not to mention that the Fang family is now in decline, even in its heyday, his status and position could not be compared with Nian Anyao.
"No need to be so polite. I respect you as the head of the family. I don't want to say much to you. You just need to understand the good intentions of the Fifth Prince and honestly hand over the land deed." Nian Anyao waved his hand, acting like a superior, and said arrogantly.
The head of the Fang family was shocked. Although the fifth prince was a little shameless, he had to consider the face of the royal family and did not dare to be too arrogant. But Nian Anyao was different. Such a well-known senior master was arrogant in the capital. Even the eight major families in the capital or giants like the royal family were unwilling to offend them easily.
Even he has spoken, there is no way today's matter will be resolved peacefully.
Over the years, the Fang family was forced into a desperate situation and suffered oppression by the Rong family, so they understood the feeling of powerlessness of being oppressed better than others. They finally found a foothold with the help of Mu Hanyan, but they still couldn't live in peace, and the other party was a strong man who was many times stronger than the Rong family.
Seeing Nian Anyao's arrogant and domineering look, the head of the Fang family could no longer suppress the anger that had been suppressed for many years.
"What if I don't pay it?" Patriarch Fang gritted his teeth and said angrily.
