Hewei City is a big city in Yinshan County. It is located in a flat river, with a width of hundreds of miles. It is built with a city wall that is nearly 30 meters high, reaching ten meters wide, and is extremely vast.

The city houses millions of people, covering 16 main streets, with shops on the streets, bustling with people and extremely lively.

The Shengyuan Continent is the most respected martial arts. In addition to teahouses and restaurants along the street, the most important thing is shops selling things that practitioners need, weapons, armor, medicinal materials, formation materials, strange metals, and even martial arts... all kinds of things are dazzling.

Wang Haochen walked among the crowd, listening to the hustle and noise in his ears, looking at the strange products in the shops on both sides, and experiencing the prosperity of this completely different world.

Although he remembered that although there were a lot of things about the Holy Yuan Continent, he actually felt that he actually saw it.

"Hiki! Busy!" Even though Wang Haochen had seen the prosperity of those metropolises, he was also amazed.

In Hewei City, shops are usually two to three floors, while most of the houses are only one floor, but they are all exquisitely built and have extremely superb construction technology.

With a slight change of figure, Wang Haochen crawled into a slightly dark alley. The noise gradually faded away, and his ears were quiet.

The houses were dilapidated, sewage was everywhere on the road, and a stench was filled with the air.

It is only separated by a wall, but this alley seems to be in two different worlds from the bustling street outside.

In the alley, there are few figures, dark and deserted. From time to time, the lights are like bright fire, making them even more desolate.

Wang Haochen frowned and walked in the alley, stepping into the sewage from time to time, and the stench swelled, making him unable to help frowning, but when he thought of Grandpa He living in such a place, his heart was immediately shattered.

Grandpa Heng once took charge of the family wealth for his father, and he was also a wealthy man, so he had no worries about food and clothing. However, because of himself, he was unique in this remote and messy place, and had no support in his life, and was unable to do so.

"Grandpa Heng..." Wang Haochen looked ahead calmly, with tears flashing faintly.

Under a small butter lamp, a hunched old man bent down to wipe the already shiny table and stool. Behind him was a small shop with a stove at the door and a stack of steamer on it, steaming in early morning.

"Little Master!" The old man seemed to notice Wang Haochen's gaze, turned his head slightly, and a hint of happiness suddenly surged out of his dizzy eyes.

Wang Haochen slowly walked to the old man and looked at the old man's old face, his eyes became moist.

"Grandpa Heng, I'm back!" Wang Haochen said with a little choking.

He Heng put down the wiping steps in his hand, walked to Wang Haochen, and said in a low voice: "Young master, have they bullied you again?"

Wang Haochen shook his head, threw himself into the old man's arms, and firmly hugged the old man's already shriveled body, but he felt a kind of support and a kind of warmth.

"Young master, the old servant's body is dirty, you...ah!" The old man seemed to feel the grief in Wang Haochen's heart, sighed, stretched out his hand slightly, and took Wang Haochen into his arms.

After a long time, Wang Haochen felt a little relieved, he looked up slightly and said, "Grandpa Heng, I want to eat the buns you made!"

"Young master, you haven't been here for three months. Today, the old servant prepares you something delicious." The old man let go of his hands, turned around and prepared to go to work hard.

Wang Haochen grabbed the old man and said, "Grandpa Heng, I just want to eat the buns you made."

He was reluctant to eat and wear the money Heheng earned from selling buns. After leaving behind the materials for the bun shop, he saved all the money he had. He knew that Wang Haochen would get tired of eating buns every day, so he used the money he had saved to buy some meat and make it for Wang Haochen to have a big meal, but he did not move at all. Wang Haochen was happy to eat, and he watched quietly and was happy.

He Heng had a slight doubt on his face. Every time he wanted to cook something delicious for the young master, the young master would refuse, but he was young and greedy, and could not hide the desire in his eyes. But this time, he felt that the young master really just wanted to eat buns.

"Okay! OK...Young master just eats it, and the old servant will go and get it now." The old man turned around, with a hint of relief on his face.

The master should rest in peace, the young master is already sensible.

After noon, the bun shop basically had no business, and almost no one came to the evening, but Heheng would stay until very late in order to earn the money for the one or two buns.

Wang Haochen's arrival finally made the alley more popular. The two sat under the oil lamp, and Wang Haochen was eating the buns voraciously.

"Young master, eat slowly, there are many more on the stove." The old man sat next to him and looked at Wang Haochen with a smile.

Although the ingredients of the buns made by Heheng are not very high-end, they are very careful in making, with a lot of fillings and thin skins, and have excellent taste.

After not eating for a day, Wang Haochen was so hungry that he finished a whole basket of buns in one breath, more than a dozen.

"Come on, have a drink!" The old man pushed a glass of warm water that had been prepared long ago in front of Wang Haochen.

Gu Long finished drinking it in one breath and finally felt some inventory in his stomach.

"Young master, you have been there in the past three months, why haven't you come here at once?" Seeing that Wang Haochen finished eating, the old man asked the question that had always been in his mind.

Wang Haochen wiped the corner of his mouth, and a trace of solemnity appeared on his face, saying, "Grandpa Heng, I've been going to participate in the family trial in the past three months."

The old man's eyes shrank slightly, and anger surged from his peaceful face, and he said, "Is it them who forced you? They are really getting more and more excessive!"

"Grandpa Heng, I was afraid that you would worry, so I didn't tell you that now, I'm alive, and I still have a chance in the trial." Wang Haochen said excitedly.

"Just come out, just come out..." the old man murmured, but a look of worry in his eyes could not be removed.

"Grandpa Heng, what I said below is very important, you and me." Wang Haochen looked at the old man and said solemnly.

"Young master, if you need any help from the old servant, just say it." The old man agreed without hesitation.

Even if Wang Haochen’s request is ridiculous, he will do it as long as he has hope.

"Grandpa Heng, I want you to leave Hewei City, go to another big city, and build a new business for me." Wang Haochen also felt a little guilty in his heart. He Heng was already very old and wanted him to go out for a trip.

He Heng once helped Wang Haochen's father take charge of the largest business in the Wang family, so he definitely had this reason. If the eldest lady had not been secretly using methods to restrict He Heng, with He Heng's management skills, their lives would never have been so miserable now.

Moreover, Wang Haochen asked He Heng to leave Hewei City to develop a business, not really to make money, but to save his life.

Now he not only completely broke up with the eldest lady, but also offended many people in the clan. Perhaps they were limited to the clan rules and did not dare to kill themselves openly, but if they retaliate, He Heng would inevitably be implicated. With the power of the Wang family in Hewei City, it would be easy to kill He Heng, and he might even use He Heng as a pawn to threaten himself.

"Once the old servant leaves, the young master will be left without anyone to take care of him. This must not be done!" The old man shook his head firmly and said.

Wang Haochen smiled slightly and said, "Grandpa Heng, I said that I got some opportunities in the trial."

"Look!" Wang Haochen picked up the stones by the table and grabbed his palms suddenly.

"Bang!"

A sudden sound in his palm. When his palm slowly loosened, the stones in his palm had turned into fine sand, flowing slowly down like water.

"This..." The old man's turbid eyes lit up, and a flushing color surged from his old face, "Young master, can you practice?"

Wang Haochen nodded and then said, "Grandpa Heng, don't worry about me. With my current strength, I can protect myself. And you also know the rules of the clan. They dare not kill me openly. As long as I am careful, they have no way to deal with me."

The old man couldn't help but look a little hesitant. After thinking for a moment, he nodded and said, "Okay, just follow what the young master said!"

He Heng has seen many strong people in the Wang family. He can see that Wang Haochen's move just now seems simple, but it is definitely not something that can be achieved in the Qi Condensation Realm. Although he doesn't understand why Wang Haochen suddenly has such a strong cultivation level, he didn't ask too much.

With Wang Haochen's current cultivation level, he can no longer help, and he also knows the struggles of the Wang family. If he continues to stay here, he will probably be a drag on Wang Haochen. However, if he leaves Hewei City and establishes a business, it will not only avoid danger, but also provide great support to Wang Haochen.

As long as the people of the Wang family have a little strength, they will have many industries outside. The resources required by practitioners are huge, and relying solely on the little provided by the family is a drop in the bucket.

The old man was penniless, but he was not worried that he would not be able to build a business. In this regard, he had strong confidence. Whether it was his vision and experience, or his grasp of opportunities, he was confident that he was not inferior to others. He only needed a small opportunity to build a business.

Wang Haochen hid his palm under the table, stretched out slightly, and suddenly there were pieces of Yuan stones appearing in his hand, and then placed it on the table and pushed it in front of the old man.

"Grandpa Heng, you can take these Yuanshi. Tonight you will find a place to hide it and find a way to contact a caravan that will leave Hewei City after three days. At that time, I will give you a Yuanshi. You can take it away. As for where you go, you have more experience than me, you can decide for yourself." Wang Haochen looked at the old man, and there was a hint of reluctance in his eyes.

The reason why he set a three-day period was that he wanted to use these three days to collect enough Yuanshi for the old man as much as possible so that the old man could easily establish a business.

Since the old man agreed to him, he would definitely try every means to complete it, and he didn't want the old man to suffer too much.

"Young master, as long as you have these, it's enough. It's important for you to practice, don't waste that time." The old man did not refuse and directly put Yuanshi away.

Wang Haochen shook his head and said, "Grandpa Heng, wait for me for three days. In the past year, I have died without you. Now that I have the ability, I naturally cannot let you suffer for me anymore. Moreover, if you can establish business faster, you can help me faster. This is not a waste of time, but a saving of time."

The old man thought for a while, nodded, and said, "Okay!"

He, who has a very high management skills, naturally knows that the accumulation at the beginning is very slow. If he has enough capital at the beginning, it will be a completely different starting point.

After arranging the meeting place in three days, Wang Haochen got up and left, and walked away in a hurry. He wanted to collect enough Yuanshi within three days. Time was extremely tight, and he still had no idea.

The old man watched Wang Haochen leave, and after watching his back disappear, he slowly stood up, took off the oily apron around his waist, folded it neatly, placed it on the table, then looked up at his small shop, turned around and left without any nostalgia.

Although Wang Haochen did not explicitly state his hatred with those in the family, the old man still felt the urgency. He had been used to storms and would not make mistakes because of some small profits.

As the steps moved away, the old man's hunched back seemed to be slightly straightened, and a sense of pride seemed to surge out of his body.
