Inheriting A Divine Cultivation Clan At The Start, All My Juniors Are Empresses-Chapter 84 - 83: My Name Can Only Be Known by You
Chapter 84: Chapter 83: My Name Can Only Be Known by You
The matter was settled like this, with each major family contributing twenty thousand silver, and then letting the Demon-slaying Bureau’s people come to eradicate the monster plague.
Before the meeting concluded, Yuchi made a reminder.
"The event is scheduled for after noon, which is a chance to showcase the vitality of the major families. Everyone should go back and find people."
"Young talents or elders, either is fine, but be mindful not to bring too many. A maximum of four people per family will suffice."
"Otherwise, the temporary stage won’t have enough space for everyone to stand."
"Remember to wear the chamber of commerce’s clothing."
The heads of several families surely understood Yuchi’s intention.
Assisting the common people in demon eradication naturally grants their gratitude, representing a chance to shine.
Whether or not it applies to us, we know not, but this opportunity should be seized.
Letting the children of one’s family come out to show their faces and make acquaintances is excellent.
Or to say otherwise,
Simply for the sake of networking, this surpasses what three thousand taels of silver could achieve.
Plus the benefits the chamber of commerce could obtain themselves...
They had recently deeply felt the convenience brought by the chamber of commerce.
At the very least, they now did not need to bring guards when going out, as Xufu Town’s security, disturbed by them, had improved greatly.
"So, the silver?" Yuchi looked at everyone.
No one hesitated in the slightest.
Everyone had already taken out their silver notes.
To them, a little over three thousand per family was something they could easily produce.
Except for Yuchi, who couldn’t come up with three thousand taels, everyone else had already handed over the full amount!
This scene was beyond Yuchi’s expectations.
Could these people really be this straightforward? It felt somewhat like a rush purchase in his past life.
Was there even gratitude while paying?
This was baffling.
But in any case, apart from him, the silver was ready.
Am I the slowest one in the end?
...
The chamber of commerce had already begun preparations, and people from the major families started heading back to gather others.
Before noon, around a quarter past ten, Yuchi finally saw his father in the chamber of commerce.
"Though it’s not great to ask for money as soon as we meet, did you bring the money, Dad?" Yuchi smiled while looking at Wei Xubing in front of him.
"How much?" Wei Xubing smiled even more as he looked at his third son.
Is this really my son?
Could it be a wrong swap when he was a child?
I certainly didn’t have this child’s cleverness.
"Three thousand three hundred and thirty-three taels." Yuchi smiled.
After calculating, there were two more taels of silver, and he didn’t want to take them out.
After thinking about it, he decided to take out two taels from his private stash, assuming it was for looking for Miss to have a chat.
Without another word, Wei Xubing took out this money directly.
Without saying it’s three thousand three hundred and thirty-three.
Four general tickets worth a thousand taels each.
Yuchi certainly didn’t take more, and asked the accountant to exchange some change, returning all the funds.
Even among blood relations, accounts are clear.
"Dad, don’t leave after noon, something needs your presence during the afternoon." Yuchi reminded.
"Alright."
Taking a glance at the yamen on the left, Wei Xubing said with a smile, "Big brother, you chat first, I’m off to the yamen for a bit."
He still had some final matters unresolved, which Yuchi had previously tasked him with.
He felt that he couldn’t let his third son down.
Immediately went to wrap things up.
Yuchi did not stop him, and together with his elder brother watched their father hurriedly go about his business.
Busy.
Everyone’s busy.
Busy is good, you know.
Collecting his thoughts.
"Big brother, did you find a woman you like from any other family?" Yuchi asked with a smile.
"No, no." Wei Zhe awkwardly replied.
"Haha, if you find someone you like, just say it, I’ll play the matchmaker for you."
Yuchi pulled his brother to sit down.
The two went to a secluded garden of the chamber.
A maid brought a pot of tea, two cups, a plate of fried peanuts, and the two could sit for an hour.
Yuchi actually thought his elder brother looked quite decent, perhaps neither of them was as handsome as Wei Fei, but still good.
Plus, the Wei Family at that moment was quite renowned in Xufu Town.
Although his elder brother was slightly older, there was no worry in finding suitors.
He wanted to find a companion for his elder brother, at least to provide himself with a niece to play with which would be great.
"Little Ximo is quite lonely on her own, we’re all outside, and she’s the only one in the Wei Family."
"When will you have children, to accompany little Ximo?"
Yuchi half-joked, half-seriously, seemingly like an elderly lady urging marriage during the New Year.
Wei Zhe couldn’t help but laugh, "Don’t just talk about me, what about you, third brother? When will you get married?"
"Me? It’s still early for me." Yuchi waved it off.
"Really?"
Double standards, eh.
Haha.
The brothers drank tea and ate peanuts, relishing the flavors.
Wei Zhe brought it up, "By the way, third brother, when did you add another girl to our Wei Family?"
Chewing peanuts, Yuchi sipped some tea, "... What do you mean another girl?"
After thinking for a moment.
"Are you talking about Qingzhu?"
Yuchi asked curiously.
If his brother was asking about this, then he didn’t know how to answer.
Was it supposed to be a lost girl?
That definitely wouldn’t work.
"Not Qingzhu."
Wei Zhe put down the cup, "She just arrived yesterday and met us."
"Qingzhu brought her, and she also met with Wei Yuan."
"She’s about as tall as a broom, but incredibly beautiful."
Wei Zhe gestured with his hand.
Huo Shanlan, "I’m quite offended!"
Yuchi was surprised, "Really? Such a beautiful girl? How could I not know?"
What level of beauty is this terrifying beauty?
Yuchi couldn’t imagine.
"Yeah, she and Qingzhu both said they know you, and she even said she came following your summon."
"I couldn’t figure out the specifics either."
"She seems like a cultivator, could she be someone from your master’s side?"
Yuchi listened, utterly baffled.
What does this mean?
Someone from my master’s side? I am my own master, where would a master come from?
It made no sense.
Could she be a fraud?
It was impossible, if it was just one person, no problem, but the key was Qingzhu was there too.
Qingzhu wouldn’t collude with others to deceive the Wei Family.
However, he still asked, "Did she ask for money?"
Yuchi had no choice but to be wary, you can trample on my dignity, but you can’t steal my money!
"No, she just said she would wait at the Wei Family until you return." Wei Zhe thought, quite moved, "She respects you a lot!"
"Really?" Yuchi got even more puzzled.
If not for money, then why did the girl come looking for him?
Didn’t others know her identity either?
Could it be that Ascension Gate is exposed?
That wouldn’t be it either.
He always acted with caution, which could be seen from his relationship with Bai Rou.
If he was the least bit careless, the Bai Family would have been in and out a million times.
Could it be...
Could it be the unfamiliar girl is attracted to him?
Yuchi blushed, "That’s not right."
Then he inquired, "Big brother, did she say her name?"
If he knew the name, perhaps he would understand.
But Wei Zhe shook his head, "When introducing herself, she said it was inconvenient to reveal her name."
"She said only you could know her name."
"It fooled us quite thoroughly."
"She’s at the Wei Family waiting for you now, why don’t you go and see?"
Yuchi gasped, "What does it mean that my name is only known to you?"
This was too melodramatic, wasn’t it?
Considering he had to go to the yamen soon and couldn’t go back.
"Forget it, no rush for now, let’s finish what’s at hand first."
"As long as it’s not a scam, there’s no big problem."
"What kind of wondrous existence could she be? Breaking the sky, at most she’s just my little fangirl."
Yuchi didn’t take it to heart.
He would never have thought that such a woman as Huo Shanlan would appear at this time.
This train of thought was simply uncanny.
So Yuchi didn’t take it seriously, thinking it might have something to do with Qingzhu?
Maybe someone from Qingzhu’s side, coming with a buy-one-get-one offer?
Not sure.
But there was no big issue, could she really be some powerful cultivator?
