Bai sat on the seat beside Ning Lan, and a faint fragrance emanated from her body.

Ning Lan touched her nose and said with a dry smile: "Mrs. Hu is over the award."

When he spoke, he leaned his body a little in another direction.

I don’t know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that Bai Shi looked at him with a little strange look. There seemed to be a hint of burning luster in her beautiful eyes.

Ning Lan looked at Hu Lingxiu again and said, "Miss Hu, do you encounter any difficulties in the county town?"

Hu Lingxiu shook her head and said, "Since I came to the county town, my mother and I bought this yard, and I have been staying here and rarely contacted people from outside. Even if there is any problem, it is usually uncle Zhang Duo and others who come forward to deal with it."

Ning Lan nodded and said, "That's good, it's good. If you encounter difficulties in the future, you can go to my friend in the county town..."

What he wanted to talk about was Meng Yuhui, the third master of the Temple.

However, before the sentence was finished, the voice of the guard Zhang Duo suddenly came from outside the door.

Zhang Duo said, "Madam, Miss, Mr. Zhuo Bufan is here."

Hearing this name, Hu Lingxiu's expression moved slightly, and her eyes showed expectation.

Bai Shi also looked out the door with beautiful eyes.

Hu Lingxiu said: "Uncle Zhang Duo, please bring Mr. Zhuo here."

Zhang Duo replied: "Yes, Miss."

Ning Lan asked casually: "Miss Hu, who is this young master Zhuo Bufan?"

Hu Lingxiu looked at Ning Lan and said, "Young Master Ning Lan, you may not have heard of Mr. Zhuo, but you must have heard of his father."

Ning Lan showed curiosity on her face and said, "Oh?"

Hu Lingxiu continued: "Mr. Zhuo's father is Zhuo Youdao, the shopkeeper of Zuixianju, a restaurant in the county town. There are Zuixianju branches in many cities in the county town. There is also a Zuixianju in Jiangbei City."

When Ning Lan heard the words Zuixianju, he couldn't help but frowned.

He has never been to this restaurant called Lingnan County, but he is not unfamiliar with it.

Zhao Qingming's Jinyumantang Restaurant in Jiangbei City was occupied by this Zuixianju with despicable means.

Ning Lan returned to Jiangbei Territory from the sea, but she had not yet gone to find trouble for the Zuixianju branch. The reason was very simple. With his identity, he really didn't like a restaurant. Even if he wanted to take revenge, he didn't need to come forward in person.

Unexpectedly, when I came to the county town to visit Hu Lingxiu and her daughter, I happened to meet the son of the shopkeeper of Zuixianju.

Ning Lan's mouth raised slightly and her eyes narrowed slightly.

The guard Zhang Duo soon walked in from outside with a young man in luxurious clothes.

This person is undoubtedly Zhuo Bufan.

Zhang Duo bowed and stepped back.

Zhuo Bufan looks pretty talented and has a good appearance.

He showed a kind smile on his face, bowed his hand and said, "I have met my aunt and sister Lingxiu."

Hu Lingxiu and Bai also stood up and returned the gift.

Ning Lan sat there, looking at Zhuo Bufan without any movement.

Of course, Zhuo Bufan also noticed Ning Lan quickly. He frowned, his smile disappeared, and he showed an unhappy look.

Seeing Zhuo Bufan's expression change, Hu Lingxiu quickly spoke out and said, "Young Master Zhuo, this is Young Master Ning Lan, he is..."

Zhuo Bufan directly interrupted Hu Lingxiu and said, "Lingxiu, you are here to tell you that the investment failed."

Hu Lingxiu's delicate body trembled, and her pretty face turned pale in an instant.

She asked in panic, "Failed? How could it fail?"

Half a year ago, Hu Lingxiu and her daughter had just settled in the county town, and Zhuo Bufan came to the door.

He told the mother and daughter that his father, Zhuo Youdao, the shopkeeper of Zuixianju, was a close friend of Hu Yuanshan. In the future, he would take care of his mother and daughter in the county town.

Zhuo Youdao and Hu Yuanshan do know each other. However, the relationship between them is far from being a close friend.

Zhuo Bufan has a very good eloquence, and he quickly gained the trust of Hu Lingxiu and his daughter.

After spending some time, Hu Lingxiu and Bai Shi persuaded him to take out the wealth in his hands for investment.

According to the saying "Extraordinary", he has a very good investment opportunity. He can invest 100,000 spirit stones and double it in one year.

Hu Lingxiu lacked experience and Zhuo Bufan's identity background is extraordinary, so after the other party's continuous brainwashing, he actually took out 100,000 spirit stones.

After purchasing this house, the remaining spirit stones for the mother and daughter were only 110,000 or 20,000 yuan.

It can be said that those 100,000 spirit stones are basically all the property of the Hu family except this house.

Hu Lingxiu was also fantasizing that with Zhuo Bufan's help, the 100,000 spirit stones could become 200,000 next year.

How could I have thought that Zhuo Bufan came here today and told her that the investment failed.

Zhuo Bufan sighed and said, "Sister Lingxiu, you have to know that investment itself has great risks. You may make a big profit or lose all your money. No investment can make a steady profit without losing money."

There was no blood on Hu Lingxiu's face.

After all, she was just a young woman in her early twenties and lacked social experience. For a moment, she didn't know what to do.

Bai asked in an anxious voice: "Young Master Zhuo, how many of our spirit stones are left?"

Zhuo Bufan looked at Bai, shook his head again, and said, "There are no more. All 100,000 spirit stones have been lost, and none of them are left."

"Auntie, Sister Lingxiu, I'm sorry for you! Alas, if I had known this, I wouldn't have let you participate. I also lost hundreds of thousands of spirit stones to enter this investment."

Hu Lingxiu and Bai's minds were blank. At this time, they had not realized that they had been deceived.

The 100,000 spirit stones were probably not lost, but fell into Zhuo Bufan's pocket.

Ning Lan sneered, stared at Zhuo Bufan and said, "I want to ask, Mr. Zhuo, where did he invest this spiritual stone?"

Hearing Ning Lan's question, Zhuo Bufan's eyes slashed and his face showed a cold chill.

He rolled his eyes and shouted, "Boy, who are you?"

Hu Lingxiu was already introducing Ning Lan just now, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted.

Ning Lan smiled and said, "Who am I? Young Master Zhuo doesn't have to worry about it now. Mrs. Hu and Miss Lingxiu will give you 100,000 spirit stones to invest. Of course, you have the right to know what project this spirit stone has been invested in? You can't disappear out of thin air, right?"

One hundred thousand spirit stones are probably equal to one thousand top-grade spirit stones. For most innate warriors, they are considered huge sums.

The wealth left by Hu Yuanshan is only hundreds of thousands of spirit stones.

Hu Lingxiu finally came to her senses and said, "Young Master Zhuo, where did you throw the spirit stone? How did you lose all of it?"

She just lacks experience and experience, and is not really lacking in IQ.

At this time, she had already vaguely realized that the investment that Zhuo Bufan mentioned might have problems. It was even possible that Zhuo Bufan had been deceiving them from the beginning.
