Xu Ning was sitting on the ground eating breakfast, thinking as he ate: After I get outside, I have to quickly write a letter to Pei Jiao, Qi Canglan and Hai Qing.
Nearly two months had passed since the flood, and Pei Jiao must have been incredibly anxious since she couldn't get in touch with her. Furthermore, it was unclear if there had been any new developments in Qi Canglan and Hai Qing's business during those two months. Thinking of this, Xu Ning couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
She gulped down the thick porridge while thinking about how to write the letter. At this moment, the treasure box in her mind suddenly made a sound.
"Congratulations, player! The food and other supplies you hid in the mountains were discovered by refugees, saving the lives of 137 people. The main system rewards you with 10 million points."
Upon hearing this news, Xu Ning couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, thinking: "How could someone find such a dangerous place? It seems that there are some capable people among these refugees!"
Then, she asked the treasure chest: "Bao, why is there no change in the task progress?" Although the system kept giving her points, it did not increase the task progress. What's the use?
If this continues, when will she be able to complete her mission?
"Hello, player. The Xu family's stability still needs to be verified. Your next important main quest is to marry and have children with your target."
"Forget it, just pretend I didn't say anything." Xu Ning's nostrils widened, and he silently cursed the treasure chest and the main system in his heart.
Get married, get married, what the hell, how old is she? Nine years old!
Neuropathy!
Sizzle...
The Jiang family in Beijing.
Jiang Yan sat in his study, intently flipping through the mountain of accounts on his desk. Sunlight streamed through the window, illuminating his increasingly resolute and profound features. At that moment, Jiang Yi hurried into the study and whispered, "Young Master, there's news."
Jiang Yan raised his head and looked at Jiang Yi sharply, but asked calmly, "Does cousin know?"
Jiang Yi nodded respectfully: "I have already told someone to pass it on."
Jiang Yan nodded slightly, then ordered, "Go call Qi Canglan over." After that, he lowered his head again and continued to look through the account book in his hand.
Jiang Yi left in response. Not long after, Qi Canglan arrived outside Jiang Yan's study. He knocked gently on the door and called out in a low voice, "Master."
"Come in." Jiang Yan responded without raising his head.
Qi Canglan pushed open the door, walked quickly to Jiang Yan, and saluted respectfully: "Master, you are looking for me?"
Jiang Yan put down the account book in his hand, looked up at Qi Canglan, and said with a slightly serious expression: "Well, there is news from the Xu family. You should hand over the matters in your hands and go to the south to find Xu Ning."
Qi Canglan agreed but did not go out, because he knew that Jiang Yan asked him to go to the south to find Xu Ning, and it was definitely not just about the 100 stone of grain.
Sure enough, Jiang Yan looked at the account book for a while, looked up and saw Qi Canglan still waiting patiently in the study, and a hint of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.
"How much do you know about Miss Xu's affairs?" Jiang Yan suddenly asked Qi Canglan.
Qi Canglan did not hide anything and told everything about how Xu Ning took out various kinds of wine at Fang's house.
"In your opinion, can the Xu family cooperate?" Jiang Yan asked again.
Qi Canglan didn't understand Jiang Yan's intention for a moment. He pondered for a moment, then spoke carefully, "It's common sense among businessmen to cooperate if there's profit to be made, because profit relationships themselves are more stable than many friendships."
Qi Canglan understood this principle from the first day he started doing business.
"The Xu family is honest and kind, and Miss Xu has unique perspectives and insights on business. If the master wants to cooperate with the Xu family for a long time, there is a high probability that the business can be expanded by more than double or triple."
Qi Canglan's answer surprised Jiang Yan. He originally just wanted to test Qi Canglan's opinion of the Xu family, but he didn't expect that the other party was so optimistic about the Xu family.
"You seem to be very optimistic about Xu Ning." Jiang Yan looked at Qi Canglan with interest.
"My lord, it is you who has high hopes for Miss Xu, and Miss Xu is worthy of it." Qi Canglan replied neither humbly nor arrogantly.
Jiang Yan nodded slightly, expressing his approval of Qi Canglan. He continued, "That's a good thing. From now on, all business related to the Xu family will be handled by you."
A flash of surprise flashed across Qi Canglan's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure. He knew this was Jiang Yan's trust in him and a test, and he had to go all out to live up to this trust.
"Yes, master, don't worry, I will definitely live up to your trust." Qi Canglan said respectfully.
Jiang Yan nodded in satisfaction, then waved his hand for Qi Canglan to leave. Qi Canglan left and walked back to his room, secretly pondering Jiang Yan's true intentions. He knew Jiang Yan wouldn't ask about the Xu family for no reason; there must be a deeper meaning behind it.
After returning to his room, Qi Canglan didn't rest immediately. Instead, he took out a pen and paper and began to seriously consider the cooperation with the Xu family. This was undoubtedly a rare opportunity for him. It was not only a major challenge to his personal abilities, but also a vital opportunity for his future development.
He knew that if he could successfully seize this opportunity and create more value for his master, his future would be full of infinite possibilities and a bright future. So he picked up the pen and wrote the first word without hesitation - "food".
Next, he quickly wrote the second character next to "grain"—"wine." After a moment's hesitation, he firmly wrote the third character—"cattle and sheep." As time passed, new ideas and thoughts continued to flow from Qi Canglan's pen, eventually forming a complete plan.
In the evening, Qi Canglan carefully tidied up his appearance, then took the carefully prepared plan and went to Jiang Yan's study again.
When he walked out of Jiang Yan's study again, he looked refreshed, as if he had regained his vitality. His eyes flashed brightly in the darkness, revealing a firm and confident look.
"Emma, I'm so tired."
In the mountains, in order not to be outdone by Xu Feng, Xu Ning climbed a few more mountains today. As a result, when she lay down, Xu Ning found that Xu Feng was still in much better spirits than her.
Could it really be because she hadn't exercised recently? Xu Ning began to doubt herself.
Seeing Xu Ning collapsed on the ground in a disfigured state, Xu Yuan called Xu Feng, who was still alive and kicking, to come over and help set up the tent.
Xu Ning lay on the ground, speechless, staring at the sky. While setting up the tent, Xu Feng secretly asked Xu Yuan, "Aunt Yuan, are we really not going to tell Second Sister the truth?"
Xu Yuan straightened the tent, glanced at Xu Ning, and said hesitantly: "How about we tell her after dinner?"
Xu Feng nodded hurriedly. It was really because Xu Ning had been competing with him in speed today, which made Xu Feng feel a little guilty. It would be better for him to just tell Xu Ning the truth directly.
But they didn't expect that when they told the truth during dinner, Xu Ning didn't react much, but went "crazy" the next day!
