My Father Is Definitely Possessed-Chapter 133 - 113: An Unexpected Visitor

He just wanted to quietly wait for a while to see if he could obtain a Fifth Grade Realm-Breaking Pill.

Two days later.

Dao Mark City.

Today, the Evergreen Commerce Association welcomes a special guest.

The visitor exudes elegance, with a touch of heroism between his brows, his entire aura is overwhelming, giving off a refined demeanor at a glance.

The visitor also introduces himself.

Zou Zhengfan, City Lord of Celestial Water City in Minghong State!

Upon learning that such a distinguished person had arrived, Yan Leisheng personally went out to greet him.

Since the business of the Evergreen Commerce Association has been on track, Yan Botao and the other two returned to Changting Town, after all, Changting Town is their foundation; they cannot stay here all the time.

Yan Leisheng could manage things here.

Yan Leisheng didn’t expect that just after the three left, such a prestigious guest would visit.

"City Lord Zou."

Yan Leisheng approached respectfully and said, "City Lord Zou, your esteemed presence truly graces our humble establishment. Please come inside."

Zou Zhengfan politely clasped his fists in greeting and was led by Yan Leisheng into the VIP hall of the Evergreen Commerce Association.

All the way, Yan Leisheng wondered what Zou Zhengfan’s purpose was for visiting the Evergreen Commerce Association.

People like Zou Zhengfan serve as a city lord in Minghong State, which is under the jurisdiction of Mountain Ancient Land, so Zou Zhengfan must have been a disciple of Mountain Ancient Land previously.

Thus, he could become the City Lord of Celestial Water City, and his strength is undoubtedly formidable.

And since the Hai family is also in Celestial Water City, could it be that Zou Zhengfan has a deep connection with Hai Songtao?

Is he here because of the recent rumors about the Evergreen Commerce Association killing Hai Songtao?

"This commerce association is quite remarkable," Zou Zhengfan remarked, glancing around with a smile.

"It’s just a small commerce association, not worthy of your attention," Yan Leisheng quickly replied politely.

Bringing Zou Zhengfan into the VIP room, Yan Leisheng personally brewed tea for him.

Zou Zhengfan took a sip of the tea, initially intending to discuss business, but after tasting the tea, his eyes lit up. He took another sip from the cup.

"What kind of tea is this? Why is it so fragrant?"

Zou Zhengfan was not exaggerating; the tea he tasted had an unusually rich aroma that he found unrivaled among the many teas he had tried before.

"This is just some tea from our Yan family, not worth much," Yan Leisheng quickly said, "If you like it, I’ll pack some for you later."

Yan Leisheng was not lying. This tea is quite ordinary, but after being hand-fried following instructions from Li Changqing, it developed a much richer aroma.

Currently, only the Yan family, Bai family, and Zhao family have it; other places do not.

Unexpectedly, Zou Zhengfan liked it so much.

"You are too kind," Zou Zhengfan quickly replied politely, then took out a piece of paper from his chest and handed it directly to Yan Leisheng, "Shopkeeper Yan, please accept this as a gift to the Evergreen Commerce Association."

"Ah?" Yan Leisheng was stunned, Zou Zhengguo actually came to give something to the Evergreen Commerce Association?

Curious, Yan Leisheng took a look at the paper and discovered it was a land contract!

And this land contract belonged to Celestial Water City’s Minghai Commerce Association!

"This is..." Yan Leisheng was shocked.

Why was the Minghai Commerce Association’s land contract given to the Evergreen Commerce Association?

However, this truly tempting item, a land contract, is very valuable. More importantly, with this contract, it would be possible to establish a commerce association directly in Celestial Water City.

"This gift is too generous; our Evergreen Commerce Association cannot accept something unearned," Yan Leisheng hurriedly declined.

Although Yan Leisheng wanted it very much, he dared not accept it so easily; a proverb says that accepting something makes one obligated. Who knows what might happen after accepting it?

"The Evergreen Commerce Association’s contributions can be said to be the greatest," Zou Zhengfan said, "If it weren’t for your association’s intervention, I wouldn’t have obtained this land contract. Also, the benefit we gained from the Hai family was actually significant; this contract is just a token of gratitude."

"Gratitude?" Yan Leisheng was momentarily bewildered.

"Alright, the land contract will be left here. I hope the Evergreen Commerce Association will expand to Celestial Water City; as the city lord, I will surely welcome you," Zou Zhengfan said and stood up to leave.

"Allow me to see you off." Yan Leisheng promptly packed some tea for Zou Zhengfan, who laughed heartily as he received it and left the Evergreen Commerce Association.

After sending Zou Zhengfan off, Yan Leisheng looked at the land contract in his hands, still feeling dazed.

Is this a sudden windfall from heaven?

This single land contract is worth a fortune. The Dao Mark City shop is not very large; several families pooled resources to purchase it.

The Minghai Commerce Association in Celestial Water City, with better geographic location and larger area, is worth more than the Dao Mark City Evergreen Commerce Association.

Yan Leisheng turned to write a letter to Yan Botao, explaining the situation.

But as soon as he turned, he heard someone calling behind him, "Is this Shopkeeper Yan of the Evergreen Commerce Association?"

Turning around, Yan Leisheng saw a carriage slowly stopping. In front of the carriage was a gigantic, purple-striped tiger.

Many onlookers were shocked, staring at this purple-striped tiger; it was a Spirit Beast!

The carriage curtain was lifted, and a man stepped out.

He too possessed an innate aura.

Another Innate.

Yan Leisheng quickly stepped forward respectfully and clasped his fists, "Forgive my poor eyesight, may I ask who you are?"

"You are too kind," the man said with a polite gesture, "My name is Xia Ye."

The man also clasped his fists with particular courtesy.

"Xia Ye?" Yan Leisheng was a bit surprised, exclaiming, "So you are the head of Nanwan Cao Yun."

Nanwan City, the Xia family.

Another well-known family, controlling more than half of the ships in Minghong State.

"Please come in, Master Xia."

Yan Leisheng quickly invited him.

In his mind, Yan Leisheng still wondered why the Xia family was coming to Dao Mark City.

Xia Ye maintained polite courtesy, without the demeanor of a hegemon.

It wasn’t until after two incense sticks burning time that Xia Ye left the Evergreen Commerce Association, got back into the carriage, and departed.

Standing in the doorway to see him off, Yan Leisheng still felt completely dizzy.

Xia Ye had brought five million silver notes to the Evergreen Commerce Association and signed a contract for pre-cooked dishes, with a vast demand.

Moreover, if the Evergreen Commerce Association ever needed to use ships, their Xia family would provide the best prices and service, prioritizing all customers of the Evergreen Commerce Association.

This treatment left Yan Leisheng so stunned that he couldn’t distinguish directions; the reality was too bizarre.

Five million silver notes.

Such a tremendous sum.

What should be done?

At this moment, Yan Leisheng understood that the Nanwan Xia family also benefited from the recent Hai family incident.

Xia Ye’s brother had been a hunter and was killed by Hai Songtao during a hunt.

A purple-striped tiger pulled the carriage, and at the helm was a young man who smiled, "Master, is it truly worthwhile to give so many benefits to the Evergreen Commerce Association?"

"Spending to save a life is worthwhile," Xia Ye’s voice came from within, "The old Hai Songtao met his silent end at the Evergreen Commerce Association, and as the Hai family collapsed, they showed no interest in taking a share. Do you wonder why?"

"Makes sense."

The young man nodded, "With so many vying for the Hai family’s interests, it seems the Evergreen Commerce Association didn’t want to expose their strength. Perhaps they are observing to see how each performs before taking action."

"You’re getting the hang of it," Xia Ye said coolly, "The people behind this Evergreen Commerce Association aren’t simple, quietly waiting for us to approach voluntarily, adept at intrigue indeed."
