When he returned to the villa by the lake, it was already three in the morning. The lights were still on in the living room of the mansion. Lee Xun pushed the door and entered, seeing that all five girls were there.
"Why haven't you slept at all?"
"Lee Xun, are you leaving tomorrow?" Duanmu Ruoxue asked reluctantly.
"He won't leave tomorrow. He'll only leave after today."
"What's the difference? How long are you going to be gone?" Han Meiji slightly sighed.
Seeing that, Lee Xun could not bear it anymore: "About five to six months."
"Since it's like that, I'll go with you as well." Han Meiji's expression now seemed to say that there was no room for negotiation.
Lee Xun nodded with a smile: "If you want to go, then follow me."
"Lee Xun, I also want to go with you." Duanmu Ruoxue seemed to not be too sure.
"Ruoxue, you must stay. If there's only Xixi and Lin Lei left here, it would not be good. Furthermore, I still need you to do something important with the Jiakesi Academy. "
Although Ruoxue was a little disappointed, she knew that she couldn't leave the Jiakesi Academy for the time being. After hearing from Lee Xun that there was something important for him to do, she immediately recovered some spirit and asked: "What is it?"
"During this period of time, you have to pay attention to whether or not the businesses of the various families in the Fengxiang Chamber of Commerce are selling, and buy them whenever possible. You don't have to be courteous about the price, you need to keep it as low as possible, this is very important, if you don't have enough funds, you can use your Duanmu Clan for now, and if you don't have enough, you can ask Xixi." With that, Lee Xun turned to Princess Xixi and asked: "Xixi, is there a problem?"
"Hehe, if it's less than two billion purple coins, then I can make the decision. If it's more, then the Queen Mother will have to transfer it from the treasury." The Princess Xixi laughed.
"No need. Two billion purple coins is enough. You won't be able to spend this money for nothing. In the future, there will be plenty of profits for you." You must not open your mouth to Queen Beiya, otherwise the fish might be scared away. " It was difficult to say how much money an empire had in its treasury. Although countries often went to war and consumed a lot of money, due to the size of their land and population, there was a considerable amount of tax each year. If Wan's Chamber of Commerce felt that the royal family of Helan Empire would use the national treasury's money, then it would be strange for them not to be scared away, as this was not according to the rules of a business, and once this news spread, the position of the Rotterdam's economic center would probably not be preserved.
"Oh, I see. Lee Xun, why are you always so secretive? Princess Xixi complained.
"Hehe, when you find out the truth in the future, you will definitely find it very interesting." Receiving the Princess Xixi's promise, Lee Xun turned to Duanmu Ruoxue and said, "Ruoxue, you don't have to worry about the funds. In a few days, I will send people over to deliver them to you.
"I understand, can you come back soon?" Duanmu Ruoxue said with a bit of hidden bitterness.
"I promise you, I will come back in three months."
"Yes." Duanmu Ruoxue immediately smiled happily, she was also an easy to satisfy girl.
Lei Jingjing and Shangguan Jing'er had both set out with him, and this was all planned. Now that Han Meiji also wanted to go, Lee Xun was naturally very happy.
After the conversation ended, everyone went back to their own rooms to rest. However, Lee Xun was in a difficult position, should he go to Lei Jingjing's room or her room? After thinking about it again and again, Lee Xun snickered and entered Shangguan Jing'er's room.
"Yi, why didn't you go and accompany Jingjing-jiejie, today, I can't do it today." Although he said that, Lee Xun could tell that Shangguan Jing'er's mouth was not right.
Lee Xun walked up and carried Shangguan Jing'er, then said with a smile: "Don't make a sound, I'll bring you to Jingjing's place."
Hearing that, Shangguan Jing'er immediately buried her head in Lee Xun's embrace shyly, she started to get nervous, and scolded Lee Xun for being too evil.
Lee Xun carried Shangguan Jing'er to Lei Jingjing's room, only to see that Lei Jingjing seemed to have already made her preparations. Carrying two beautiful girls, Lee Xun was extremely satisfied.
"Lee Xun, am I asleep?" Seeing that Lee Xun did not make a move for a long time, Shangguan Jing'er probingly asked in a low voice.
"Hehe, Jing'er, are you thinking wrongly? I only carried you here so that I could hug the two of you and have a good sleep. After a while, Little Lin Lei would probably knock on the door. "
Just as he finished speaking, Lee Xun felt pain from his waist, right and left. Lee Xun sighed, this was definitely a skill that every woman was born with. Lee Xun returned the kiss, one on the left and one on the right.
At six in the morning, little Lin Lei knocked on the door. Lei Jingjing laughed: "Today, I'll let you benefit greatly, you scoundrel. You accompany Jing'er to sleep a little longer."
After Lei Jingjing left, when Lee Xun saw the Sleeping Beauty beside his pillow, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva. Shangguan Jing'er suddenly opened her beautiful eyes, and said bashfully: "Search, at most three times."
Lee Xun was stunned for a moment. He truly did not think that Shangguan Jing'er would say such a thing, actually, when he carried Shangguan Jing'er here, he had indeed thought about sending the twin phoenixes flying together. Now, Shangguan Jing'er's words had thoroughly ignited her own demonic fire. Without saying anything, he started to kiss the beauty in her arms, turning it over and over again, over and over again.
After completing Shangguan Jing'er's' order ', Lee Xun lovingly hugged the beauty whose face was so red that blood could drip from it, and fell into a sweet slumber with her.
When it was almost eleven in the morning, Lee Xun felt four guests coming to the villa, he quietly got up, and left a deep kiss on Shangguan Jing'er's forehead, then went back to the living room.
"Seniors, please do not take offense to not being able to personally greet us at the entrance." Lee Xun apologized.
Without waiting for the four elders to speak, Princess Xixi said angrily: "Hmph, lazy bastard, you slept until now, causing me to only be able to eat the breakfast Ruoxue made. You have to compensate me properly during lunch."
Ruoxue's beautiful face turned slightly red, and she said angrily: "Let's see who made the food for you after Lee Xun and Jing'er left."
Princess Xixi immediately ran to Ruoxue's front and laughed: "Good sister, Xixi knows her wrongs."
The four elders were perplexed by the sight before them.
"It's great that the four seniors are here. I'll cook a few more dishes and let the seniors have a taste of my cooking skills."
After busying himself for an hour and a half, Lee Xun cooked a large table of food, and Shangguan Jing'er woke up. Although Little Lin Lei was still unconscious from his body tempering training today, he woke up very quickly and caught up with the sumptuous lunch just in time.
"Lee Xun, the four of us old fellows came over today because we originally wanted to have a taste of Miss Jing'er's culinary skills. We didn't expect your culinary skills to be so good as well." Old Xia said.
"Heh heh, my master's mouth is quite picky. In order to satisfy his appetite, he forced me to learn culinary arts."
"Hmm, that's a good idea. If I were to accept a disciple next time, I would also let him learn culinary arts." Old Wei laughed.
"..."
After the meal, Lee Xun naturally began playing chess with the four elders. The dinner was cooked by Shangguan Jing'er, but the four of them had no appetite and were defeated by Lee Xun in a row. How could they be at ease? When it was 10 o'clock, the four old men saw that there was no hope of victory, and admitted defeat, and did not pester Lee Xun anymore. They knew that Lee Xun was leaving tomorrow, and probably had some other arrangements to make.
"Lee Xun, you have to come back as soon as possible." Elder Gong said.
"Haha, definitely. "Seniors, after this brat leaves tomorrow, there are still things that I want to get rid of the four of you for."
Elder Gong said: "Go ahead."
"After we leave, there will only be Ruoxue, Princess Xixi and Little Lin Lei left. It might take a few more days for Elder Liu and Elder Bian to arrive at Duanmu Clan, so I was a little worried that someone would harass Ruoxue, so I asked the four of you to come over everyday to take care of them. Other than that, I hope the four seniors can guide Little Lin Lei. Although I have given him a cultivation mission, he has an extremely high talent, and I am unable to predict his rate of improvement. "
"That's easy. One person from the four of us comes over every day." Furthermore, since you have praised Lin Lei that child's talent, then we will have to come even more. Although we will not accept him as our disciple, we are also willing to help him build a foundation. " When the Elder Gong finished speaking, the other three old men nodded their heads as well.
"In that case, Lee Xun thanks the four seniors."
After hearing the four elders' affirmation, Lee Xun was also a lot more at ease. Although there were people protecting the Princess Xixi in the dark and even though their Jiakesi Academy had a certain amount of defensive power, many strong practitioners had their powers up, so it was natural that Lee Xun would fight for them.
Shangguan Jing'er was also there. Just as Lee Xun was about to take off his clothes, he heard Lei Jingjing say: "You're not allowed to sleep here tonight, go to Ruoxue's room. Accompany her well."
Shangguan Jing'er also nodded her head: "That's right, Meiji will be back in a while, quickly go to Ruoxue's place."
Lee Xun laughed bitterly, he could only go to the door of Ruoxue's room, and seeing that it was slightly opened, he immediately understood, the four girls must have discussed the arrangement tonight. Entering Ruoxue's room, he saw a beautiful person wearing a thin pink gauze pajamas sitting on the bedside, shaking her exposed jade feet, seemingly waiting for him anxiously.
"Lee Xun, you're here." Seeing Lee Xun, Duanmu Ruoxue's beautiful face immediately turned red, looking extremely enchanting.
"Yes." Lee Xun replied softly and went to the fragrant bed. He pulled Duanmu Ruoxue into his embrace and covered him with a blanket.
"Lee Xun, I, I'm ready." Finished speaking, Duanmu Ruoxue pressed her face closer to Lee Xun's chest, not daring to move.
"Hehe, you're ready, but I'm not." Lee Xun laughed.
Duanmu Ruoxue's face became as white as paper once again, and two tears immediately flowed out of her charming eyes.
Seeing that, Lee Xun regretted it greatly, the joke he made just now was too big, he immediately explained: "Ruoxue, don't misunderstand. It would be best if you wait until you find the Essential Spirit Beast. On this trip, if you are lucky, I will help you bring back a companion from the Essential Spirit Beast. "
Duanmu Ruoxue must have understood what Lee Xun meant. She fiercely hammered Lee Xun and pouted: "You're so bad, you'll scare me. Scoundrel, Scoundrel, Big Scoundrel." After saying that, she ruthlessly hammered Lee Xun a few more times.
Lee Xun tightly embraced Duanmu Ruoxue in his embrace and gently said, "Ruoxue, don't lose confidence in yourself, and don't doubt the feelings I have for you anymore. If it were not for the circumstances, I would not want to separate from you. "
"Mm, I won't think about anything else in the future." Duanmu Ruoxue said obediently.
"Ruoxue, I never asked you about your parents before. Where did they go?"
"They are happy. Actually, Ru Feng and I are siblings from the same father and mother, so in our family, you have two mother-in-law. Mother and Second Mother both loved to travel and their father could not stay idle, so they would often travel to various places in the Sword Soul Continent. Because Ru Feng has also entered the Jiakesi Academy, they don't have any thoughts of returning once they leave. In these past two years, they have only occasionally sent someone to report back. "
"So that's the case. In that case, I truly admire them."
"Lee Xun, tell me about the eunuch and grandma, and Master and Mistress as well."
"..."
That night, Lee Xun and Duanmu Ruoxue continued to chat.
In the morning, Lee Xun gave another warning to Lin Lei, saying that he would be back in three months to check on his progress. Little Lin Lei naturally promised him wholeheartedly, but he was also extremely reluctant to see Lee Xun and the rest leave for the time being.
Elder Gong had also arrived at the villa by the lake early in the morning, making Lee Xun feel quite touched.
It was finally the time for them to leave for good. Duanmu Ruoxue and Lin Lei cried, and Princess Xixi's eyes turned red.
On the way to the Space Teleportation Array, Lei Jingjing asked: "Lee Xun, where are we going now?"
"Let's go to the Long Family's residence in the Dragon Peak Valley. The Guiyun Manor's family and the Qianyuan Mountain's family will be there as soon as possible. It's a good thing that the three families aren't too far apart."
"I know about these three families, all of them are within the borders of the Mo Na Empire. Every year, they would do business with our Fengxiang Chamber of Commerce, but in recent years, there seem to be some problems with their business, and their cooperation with us has become less and less." Shangguan Jing'er said.
"Oh? Then what about the strength of the Wan's Chamber of Commerce in the Mo Na Empire? "
"The Mo Na Empire is located in the western part of Sword Soul Continent, and the location of the Wan's Chamber of Commerce headquarters, the Saiga Empire, is located in the eastern part of Sword Soul Continent, so they don't have much strength in the Mo Na Empire."
"Jing'er, is there any stronger merchant guilds in the Mo Na Empire?"
"There's a Zhilong Chamber of Commerce that has only recently risen in recent years, and it's said that their backer is Qianye Clan. The business of the three families you're talking about seems to be suppressed by this Zhilong Chamber of Commerce."
"Jing'er, how strong is the Fengxiang Chamber of Commerce in the Mo Na Empire?"
"It's alright. Do you have any plans?" Being asked like this by Lee Xun, Shangguan Jing'er also thought of something.
"I want to eat Zhilong Chamber of Commerce first." Lee Xun laughed.
"This is very difficult. Although they have only recently risen up, with Qianye Clan as their backing, it is impossible to accomplish it with their strength in the Mo Na Empire. "But from the looks of it, all of the money from the Sai Na Empire should be transferred back."
"If we have the full cooperation of the three families that we're going to visit, are you confident that you can eat Zhilong Chamber of Commerce?"
's beautiful eyes immediately lit up. Although Fengxiang Chamber of Commerce was a business in many different empires, the majority of it was still concentrated in the four empires, with Helan Empire being the most important of them all, but it was still on a certain scale within the Mo Na Empire. If she had the help of the three Seclusion Family, she had a very large chance of eating up Zhi Long Merchant Guild, and if she could succeed, it would also be of help to Fengxiang Chamber of Commerce headquarters, but the key point was that it had to be quick.
"Lee Xun, I have some understanding of the strength of those three Seclusion Family. They have actually been acting weak all this time, as if they are waiting for an opportunity.
