When the two returned to the lobby, they found that no one else was there. Instead, the Hengshan trio were sitting at the table and sighing.
Seeing this, Guo Furong walked up to them and said, "Weren't you upstairs just now? Why are you sighing now?"
"Don't say we didn't take good care of you."
When Lu Yiming heard this, he waved his hands quickly and said: "We don't have that intention. We are just worried about how to develop in the future. The Hengshan Sect still needs to develop and grow again in the future."
The other two also sighed, as they were worried about the financial problems of the Hengshan Sect in the future.
The people who are good at running the business have long since stopped working in the Hengshan sect, leaving only those who don’t know how to run the business. However, in the future, the development and growth of the sect will definitely require financial support, and they will not be able to provide the corresponding support when hiring talented people.
of remuneration.
The three of them discussed upstairs for a long time with no result. Feeling depressed, they walked out of the room and went to the lobby to sigh. Unexpectedly, Guo Furong and Tong Xiangyu happened to bump into each other.
After Lu Yiming explained, Guo Furong complained: "You should just look at the present first. Xiaobei hasn't agreed yet, but you are thinking in the long term."
Guo Furong's words seemed to hit the three people's hearts with a heavy hammer. They had not even decided whether Xiaobei would agree to be the leader, so they started thinking about the future.
Looking at Tong Xiangyu next to Guo Furong, Lu Yiming asked tentatively: "I don't know what shopkeeper Tong is thinking about this matter."
Tong Xiangyu shook the fan in her hand and said with a smile: "Xiao Bei is originally from your Hengshan sect. Now you want to invite her back, of course I am happy, but she is still a child after all. I have a plan here.
Can you agree?"
The three of them looked at each other, and Lu Yiming stretched out his hand to signal Tong Xiangyu to continue.
Tong Xiangyu only informed the three of them of the previously discussed plan. When the three heard that Tong Xiangyu planned to raise Mo Xiaobei until he was an adult and then send him back to Hengshan, they couldn't help but feel a little hesitant.
Seeing their hesitant expressions, Guo Furong added fuel to the fire beside her and said, "Xiao Bei's food and clothing are very good now. Are you sure Hengshan can still supply them?"
Guo Furong struck another critical blow. What they lacked now was money. They could have borrowed some money from various places, but Mo Xiaobao had already borrowed all the places he could. Now he not only borrowed
Even if I don’t have enough money, I still owe money to everyone.
Lu Yiming's expression changed, and he finally gritted his teeth and said, "We can agree to this. The leader can return to Hengshan when he reaches adulthood, and we will take this opportunity to grow again."
"But the succession ceremony of the leader must be held and it must be beautiful, so that all sects know that Hengshan is still here."
What Lu Yiming said was sonorous and powerful, and Xiao Bei's clear voice came from behind, "I heard your conversation, I am willing to be the leader of the Hengshan Sect."
When the Hengshan trio saw that Mo Xiaobei was willing to take over as the head of the Hengshan sect, they were even more excited and said that the takeover ceremony must be a success.
Then she ran back upstairs and started preparing invitations and other items. Guo Furong looked at the backs of the three people and asked doubtfully: "Where do they plan to hold this ceremony? The most important thing is, do they still have the money?"
Tong Xiangyu shook her head and said she didn't know. She didn't care about it now. Instead, she turned to look at her junior and said with emotion: "My little Bei has really grown up!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Bei moved to Tong Xiangyu's side, rubbed her against her, and said coquettishly: "Sister-in-law,..."
The two hugged each other tenderly in the lobby. Seeing this, Zhang Chen raised his head and signaled Guo Furong to leave quietly, leaving the lobby to his sister-in-law and sister-in-law.
…
The next morning, everyone was busy preparing tables, chairs, bowls and chopsticks, waiting for the guests to arrive.
Tong Xiangyu was working on the abacus at the counter. Since there had been no normal business these days, she was looking through the account books with a frown.
At this time, a middle-aged woman in a green dress walked in angrily, shouting loudly, "Where is Tong Xiang, where is Tong Xiang?"
Seeing this, Zhang Chen quickly stopped her and asked, "Who are you?"
The woman in the green skirt stood still, playing with a pair of iron gallbladders in her hands and said with a sneer: "Who am I? Let your shopkeeper Tong come out, and she will know who I am."
Zhang Chen recognized her as Mrs. Qian as soon as she entered the door, so he stopped her at the door.
Tong Xiangyu looked at Mrs. Qian at the door and crouched down quickly, planning to quietly leave the lobby and stay away from this place of right and wrong. She was so busy with Xiaobei's affairs that she forgot about her ex-wife.
Mrs. Qian saw that after she finished speaking, Zhang Chen had not made any move, so she said angrily: "Shopkeeper Tong has not been trained well, why do you, a little handyman, still plan to take over this family?"
Zhang Chen ignored her weirdness, looked up and looked at another figure appearing outside the door, and said with a smile: "Of course our shopkeeper is a good person with a kind heart, and he will definitely not beat his family like this like some people do."
Mrs. Qian followed Zhang Chen's gaze and turned around to find Shopkeeper Qian's figure. She saw Shopkeeper Qian with bruises on his face and bandages on his hands, looking like a disabled person.
As soon as Tong Xiangyu moved to the counter, she saw Zhang Chen and Mrs. Qian fighting each other, and then she saw clearly the miserable appearance of shopkeeper Qian.
Unexpectedly, Mrs. Qian really beat shopkeeper Qian so badly. Tong Xiangyu decided to move slowly towards the kitchen, planning to show up again after Zhang Chen sent his ex-wife away. He still believed in Zhang Chen's fighting ability.
I just didn't expect that before I walked halfway, I heard Li Dazui's confused voice, "Shopkeeper, what are you doing squatting here?"
Tong Xiangyu looked up and saw Li Dazui looking at him with a dish in his hand. Tong Xiangyu smiled awkwardly and was about to speed up and escape from here.
Tong Xiangyu heard Mrs. Qian's voice behind her, "This is Shopkeeper Tong. I wonder where Shopkeeper Tong plans to go?"
Seeing that she couldn't hide, Tong Xiangyu changed her expression again, walked up to Zhang Chen with a smile and said, "Who are you?"
Mrs. Qian sneered and said: "I guess you should know who I am without my introduction."
Shopkeeper Qian was outside the door and introduced in a low voice: "My wife..."
Hearing this, Tong Xiangyu looked at Shopkeeper Qian, pretending to be concerned and said: "Hey! Shopkeeper Qian, what did you do? You have come to the wrong place to see a doctor. Opposite the Omen Inn is the medical center."
When Qian saw that Tong Xiangyu was not talking to him, Mrs. Qian said again: "You are quite concerned about our old Qian. No wonder your appearance makes our old Qian's heart flutter."
Shopkeeper Qian seemed to be frightened and said loudly: "Madam, I am loyal to you. I am loyal to you."
Looking at Shopkeeper Qian's attentive look and blurted out words, Zhang Chen couldn't help but think of how many times he had to practice to achieve this proficiency. Shopkeeper Qian's ability to survive to this day is really a blessing from his ancestors.
Seeing Mrs. Qian's menacing approach, other people in the lobby also began to gather around Tongxiang Yu to encourage her. Tong Xiangyu's sense of safety and security suddenly increased as she looked at the people around her.
Looking at Mrs. Qian opposite, she explained: "I have nothing to do with your old Qian, I just happened to meet him and say hello that day."
Mrs. Qian looked like you were lying, turned the iron gallbladder in her hand very fast, pointed to the street outside the door and said, "Can I believe what you say? I will give you two choices now."
"The first is to sell this shop to me and leave Qixia Town, and the second is to help you leave here."
Shopkeeper Qian weakly reminded: "You should listen to my wife. Her family runs a martial arts school, and she also has 12 martial arts brothers."
Shopkeeper Qian's kind reminder was ignored by everyone in the inn. Mrs. Qian's intimidating power was not as good as that of Aunt Fan before her.
At this time, Mrs. Qian was standing there with a proud look on her face. She didn't care at all that Shopkeeper Qian revealed her details. Instead, she looked triumphant.
Zhang Chen looked at Mrs. Qian and said: "I don't think Mrs. Qian is clear about the whole story of this matter, but you still come to ask questions indiscriminately, with the very obvious purpose of wanting this inn."
After Zhang Chen finished speaking, Mrs. Qian's proud expression slowly faded away. She looked at the people in the inn and said coldly: "Remember that you have noticed, then I will tell you what I have to say. I like your store."
How about you make an offer?"
Everyone suddenly realized that no wonder she came to find trouble. It turned out that she planned to use this incident to compete for the inn. Now her purpose was exposed, so she told everyone directly.
Her confident and arrogant attitude made Guo Furong grit her teeth and whisper: "I want to hit her now, do you have any other opinions?"
Not to mention Guo Furong, even the others were extremely dissatisfied with her attitude. Bai Zhantang nodded in agreement.
Then Bai Zhantang's footsteps flashed, and he came to Mrs. Qian in an instant, stretched out his hand and quickly touched Mrs. Qian.
Guo Furong's eyes lit up when she saw this. OK walked a few steps quickly and came to Mrs. Qian. She used her power and shouted, "Awesome..."
Mrs. Qian, who was spotted, was photographed out of the inn without any surprise, landing right in front of the door of the medical center.
Shopkeeper Qian outside the door looked at the lady who was flying away, and cried out sadly, "Madam..."
He quickly ran to Mrs. Qian and looked at her with concern. Zhang Chen leaned against the door of the inn and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Qian, hurry up and send him to the hospital. It's just a minor skin injury."
After saying that, Zhang Chen stopped paying attention to the two of them, while Mrs. Qian struggled to stand up, looked at the location of the inn, and shouted that she must show everyone a good look.
After yelling and scolding for a while, everyone ignored her. Now he didn't dare to break into the inn alone, so he had no choice but to put down his harsh words and leave.
After struggling for such a long time, Tong Xiangyu looked at the door and asked worriedly: "Will she retaliate against us after making such a noise?"
Zhang Chen comforted Tong Xiangyu and said: "Don't worry, shopkeeper, we have seen her level this time. Even if she brings her brothers, there is nothing to be afraid of."
Of course Tong Xiangyu believed Zhang Chen's words, and then put the matter behind her and called on everyone to prepare for the inn to continue opening. The rest of the people did not take Mrs. Qian's threat to heart.
The turmoil caused by Mrs. Qian passed away peacefully.
…
The lobby of the inn was decorated with a brand new look, and the Hengshan School trio were busy arranging the meeting venue. Of course, the others were supervising the work.
The reason for this is very simple. Tong Xiangyu paid for the venue for this ceremony, and the three of them had nothing but labor.
But the three of them showed no reluctance at all. Instead, they worked harder to arrange the ceremony. They knew that this was a grand ceremony for the head of their own sect, and Tong Xiangyu did this to take care of their face.
Otherwise, as disciples of the Hengshan Sect, they would not be able to successfully hold the succession ceremony of their leader, and would need support from outsiders. This made them feel very embarrassed. After that, the Hengshan trio took over all the manpower required for the succession ceremony.
manual labor.
Zhang Chen and others were looking at the guest list for the grand ceremony. The people on the list were all top figures from various sects. Not only that, the imperial court also sent some people to watch the ceremony.
Bai Zhantang looked at the figures above and said in surprise: "Now that Xiaobei is still a child, these leaders are coming in person?"
Zhang Chen rolled his eyes and said: "Even if she is a young child, she is still the leader of the Hengshan sect. She is the leader of the sect. How could she just randomly send someone to watch the ceremony? Otherwise, it would not be a ceremony but a feud."
The scholar looked at the time on the invitation and said: "Look at the date above, people should be arriving one after another in the past two days. I see that there are many latecomers on the streets these days."
Big Mouth gnawed on the chicken leg while interjecting: "That's right, that's right, the guest rooms in our inn are almost full. I'm exhausted from the food these days."
Everyone laughed secretly when they heard this. Of course they knew why. Some of these people were not vegetarians, some were not meat eaters, and all kinds of requirements needed to be taken into consideration. As the chef of the inn, he couldn't just give up his picks, so he had to
