"Squeak——" Qin Fan walked back to his yard and opened the door. He is actually a very home-loving person. When he came back here, he suddenly seemed to be more energetic. Seeing the old scenery and old things, at the same time

I will also recall a lot of things.

He still remembered that on the day he left this time, Qin Li was waiting here early. As soon as he opened the door, he saw her.

Thinking of the person in his heart, he couldn't help but smile knowingly, feeling a little warm.

It's just a pity that I can't see her when I come back this time.

"I wonder where my sister has gone, and what is happening now?" Qin Fan groaned in his heart, opened the door, walked back to his room, and found that everything was still the same as when he left, and there was not much dust on the furniture.

, someone should have been cleaning it for a long time.

I remember that when he was refining the fire demon seed, everything in the room was basically burned down. In the end, Qin Li personally selected some furniture to rearrange the room for him.

Now the room is elegantly decorated and somewhat warm, and he likes this feeling of home very much.

As soon as he returned to the room and looked around, Qin Fan heard faint footsteps coming from outside. It seemed like someone was walking this way.

"Could it be that my sister is back?" Qin Fan couldn't help but feel happy and overjoyed.

"Master, are you back?" But then, an old voice came, and it was obviously not Qin Li.

"Yes, Uncle Fu." Qin Fan replied loudly, but at the same time he couldn't help but feel slightly disappointed.

The visitor is Qin Fu, an old servant who has stayed in the Qin family for decades. He usually only serves Qin Li and Qin Fan, so he calls Qin Fan young master, and everyone else will add their names in front. Qin Fan estimates that this room usually

He did the cleaning.

"Master, you are finally back." Soon Qin Fu also walked into the room. This old servant looked a little older than before, but he still felt very excited when he saw Qin Fan, and seemed to be rejuvenated.

Now that Qin Fan has achieved such an achievement, Qin Fu feels very lucky to be the servant who at least takes care of him.

"Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Fu, during this time." Qin Fan said with a slight smile.

"Haha, the young lady has been taking care of this place herself. Later, when the young lady went out, she asked the old servant to take care of it." Qin Fu smiled and said, "The young lady also said that she would let the young master have a home when he comes back.

It feels like these quilts are clean and the young master can use them as he pleases."

"Sister, you are still so considerate." Qin Fan also smiled, walking around the room, and then asked: "How is father lately?"

"The master's breath has not been very good recently." Qin Fu thought for a moment and sighed softly, "Since the young lady left the family, the master has been working a lot harder. On the one hand, there have been frequent problems with the family's business, and on the other hand, the master has been working hard.

He seems to be very upset because he has not been able to break through to the realm of spiritual martial arts master for a long time. The old servant often finds that he has not rested very late...Young master, you also know that this time our Nanfeng Qin family can participate in the assessment of a high-grade Zhenwu family.

That is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, but because a spiritual martial artist is needed, the master is under great pressure..."

"Uncle Fu, don't worry. Now that I'm back, my father won't have to work so hard. I will solve these things." Seeing Qin Fu looking worried, Qin Fan comforted him with a smile.

.

"Old servant naturally believes in the young master's ability... But the breakthrough to the spiritual martial arts master can only rely on the master. However, if the young master can help deal with the family affairs and let the master devote himself to training, it will be much better." Listen.

When Qin Fan said this, Qin Fu's brows relaxed a little and he said. Now he has no doubt about Qin Fan's ability, but he never thought that Qin Fan would become a spiritual martial artist.

"Haha, where is father now? I haven't gone to see him yet after I came back." Qin Fan smiled and didn't say anything, he just asked.

"Now the master should still be in the clan affairs council with several elders. Recently, I seem to have heard that the family's business has encountered problems again, so that's why the master and several elders are still doing business at night." Qin Fu thought for a while and said.

"Then I'll go to the Clan Affairs Council now to see if there's anything I can do to help." Qin Fan smiled and said, because Qin Li has been in charge of the Clan Affairs Council for the past two years, and now she has left.

Finally, these elders may not be able to adapt to it for a while.

But it also reflects Qin Li's shrewdness and ability.

"Young Master, he has really grown up and can already take charge of his own business." Qin Fu murmured as he watched Qin Fan leave. During his conversation with Qin Fan just now, he found that the latter's words were laced with emotion.

A touch of self-confidence, already appearing mature and stable.

…

A house of the Qin family in Nanfeng is surrounded by green trees, exquisite, elegant and slightly remote. Such a house does not appear to be too special among many courtyards, but it is the place where most of the affairs of the Qin family are managed.

of the Clan Affairs Council.

At this time, Qin Hongzheng, the head of the Qin family in Nanfeng, and several elders gathered around a round table to discuss family affairs. They had just discussed the recent decline in profits from the family business. They couldn't find a solution for a while.

The courtyard seemed completely silent, but it felt a bit depressing.

Qin Hong also felt heavy-hearted at this time. Now that the family's promotion assessment was about to take place, many problems arose in the family business, which made him feel a little tired both physically and mentally.

"It would be great if Li'er was here right now." He couldn't help but think of Qin Li. Over the years, everything the clan administration had put in her hands had gone smoothly, and everyone in the clan was very satisfied with it. But as soon as she left

The family was suddenly in chaos in many places, and at this time, it was oppressed by many external forces, causing the family's business to continue to decline.

"Patriarch, now all the elixir material suppliers are offering us high prices. In my opinion, we should also increase the price of elixirs. Otherwise, if this continues, we will lose money." At this time, the third elder said.

.

"Although the quality of our refining medicine is getting better and better, we are aimed at adventurers. If we raise the price again, there may be a backlash." The fourth elder said loudly, "I think we should set up a medicine collection team in the family.

Pick your own medicine."

"There are several kinds of refining medicine that can only be grown in the Monster Mountain Range and cannot be planted. If the tribe sets up a herb collection team to go there, I'm afraid it will be too dangerous. Moreover, we need a large amount and must supply it for a long time.

It is difficult for our clan to have so many people." But the third elder said.

"Are those elixir material suppliers really unwilling to give in?" Qin Hong frowned and asked loudly.

"This time it was clearly the Qin family in Qianjing who put pressure on us through them. How dare they offend this Zhenwu family." The second elder said in a deep voice at this time.

"Then we can't directly contact the adventure groups responsible for collecting herbs?" Qin Hong continued to ask.

"These adventure groups usually only contact suppliers, and we don't know which team they are. You must know that not every adventure group has a team that is proficient in herb collection. If you want to cultivate a herb collection team, there are not many Years are not enough." The great elder said.

"This Jing Qin family is really disgusting. They forced away all the suppliers we cooperated with in the past! They clearly want to suppress our Nanfeng Qin family and prevent our Nanfeng Qin family from becoming a high-quality true martial arts family." At this time, his temper was bad. The fifth elder couldn't help but slap the table and said: "I think we might as well just appeal to the Zhenwu Temple directly!"

"Lao Wu, don't be naive. Now we are just a small ninth-grade Zhenwu family. Why would the Zhenwu Temple leave us? And we have no evidence at all to say that this matter was deliberately done by the Qianjing Qin family." The fourth elder frowned and said.

"Our Nanfeng Qin family has achieved the first place in the pilgrimage. For Qin Fan's sake, I think this Zhenwu Temple should also take care of it." The fifth elder said unconvinced.

"By the way, now we may be able to take advantage of Qin Fan's nephew's fame..." When the second elder heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he said, "Now Qin Fan's nephew's name is basically known throughout the Daqian Kingdom. Knowing that he has a bright future, I would like to use this to communicate with those suppliers, and maybe there will be some improvement..."

"Yes, they don't have to give us the face of the Nanfeng Qin family, but they have to give us the face of being the first in this pilgrimage, right? With the potential of Qin Fan's nephew, who says it is impossible to become a Martial Master and a Martial Saint in the future? Xiao Yi It should be okay to let these suppliers secretly sell some elixirs to us..." Other elders also agreed at this time.

"Clan leader, what do you think about this matter?" The elder turned around and asked Qin Hong. After all, the decision-making power still lies in Qin Hong's hands.

"I just don't know if this matter will give Xiaofan some bad reputation." Qin Hong was a little worried, "We'd better ask Xiaofan about this first... I heard from Qingshi Town that he I have been there before, and I will probably return to the family soon."

"But, Patriarch..." The fifth elder hesitated to speak.

"How is the patriarch's recent training? Is there any hope of breaking through to become a spiritual martial artist before the pilgrimage comes? If the patriarch can become a spiritual martial artist, then we will become a high-grade true martial arts family, which can be regarded as more chips." The fourth elder couldn't help but Asked loudly.

In fact, no one had mentioned this matter for a long time, just because they were worried about disturbing Qin Hong's mood for breakthrough. But at this time, seeing that the day was coming soon, everyone still couldn't help it.

"It's me who feels sorry for the Qin family this time..." Qin Hong shook his head bitterly when he heard the fourth elder's question.

"Actually, the clan leader doesn't need to blame himself. This opportunity was originally won by Qin Fan's nephew, and the documents from the Zhenwu Temple also said that even if this time is unsuccessful, our Qin family can directly serve as high-ranking officials thirty years later. If the high-grade Zhenwu family participates in the pilgrimage, if the guarantee is successful, they can also become a high-grade Zhenwu family." When the first elder heard the fourth elder mention it, he actually frowned, and then quickly comforted Qin Hong to prevent him from causing pressure, otherwise the breakthrough would be It’s getting even more difficult.

To be honest, the whole family would not be willing to wait another thirty years.

So, for a while, the Clan Council fell into silence again.

"Come in." After a while, Qin Hong found that Qin Meng, the captain of the Qin family's guard in charge of guarding the door, seemed to have something to report, so he spoke up.
