However, in the vast Central State, the Patriarch of one family was smiling profoundly but said nothing.
Li Tu, the Patriarch of the Li Family, nicknad the Butcher!
Last night, the Butcher had been taken as a servant by Jiang Xinghai. He spent the night cleaning up the entire He Family affair, thereby deceiving the public eye in Central State.
"Grandfather, I'm back."
A delicate, crisp voice rang out, followed by the appearance of a beautiful woman with a graceful figure. It was none other than Li Huanyan.
Last night, on her grandfather's orders, she had gone to the hotel to warm Jiang Xinghai's bed and had only just now recovered.
"Huanyan, was Mr. Jiang satisfied last night?" The Butcher beckoned for Li Huanyan to sit down.
"Grandfather…"
Li Huanyan was too shy to speak freely in front of her elder, so she just nodded bashfully.
"Hahaha… For you to have caught Mr. Jiang's eye is a great fortune for our Li Family. Go get so rest. From now on, rember to remain faithful to him. You belong to Mr. Jiang now." The Butcher nodded with great satisfaction as he watched Li Huanyan leave.
He was now Jiang Xinghai's servant, so naturally, he had to sche for his master's benefit in all matters.
'I really wish I could serve Master day and night. If I could receive his guidance, my cultivation could improve even further,' the Butcher mused, reclining in his Grandmaster's Chair with a farsighted expression.
RING RING RING!
His phone suddenly rang, but he paid it no mind.
In Central State, there weren't many people who could make him answer a call imdiately.
'Could it be Master?'
At this thought, the Butcher snatched up his phone as if it were on fire.
Just as he expected!
The caller ID displayed two words: "Mr. Jiang."
"Master, I'm here." The Butcher answered the call, not even daring to breathe too loudly.
"How did you handle the He Family's assets?" Jiang Xinghai asked.
"I handed them over to the Dark Hall. They have full discretion in how to dispose of them and will never reveal the client's information. Once the assets are liquidated, I will imdiately deliver the funds to you, Master," the Butcher guaranteed.
Jiang Xinghai wasn't worried about the Butcher disobeying him. He asked, "Were there any Spiritual dicines in the He Family's pharmacy?"
"There was one stalk of a First Grade Spiritual dicine, a Red Fla Flower. I've already transplanted it to my family's dicinal field," the Butcher added.
"Just one First Grade Spiritual dicine? Forget it." Jiang Xinghai couldn't help but feel disappointed.
The Butcher's mouth twitched upon hearing this. 'His Master looks down on even a First Grade Spiritual dicine?'
One had to understand that it was difficult for ordinary herbs to even achieve a Grade. A First Grade Spiritual dicine was already extrely rare.
"Help find out where I can find Spiritual dicines of the Third Grade or higher in Central State. That's all."
Jiang Xinghai hung up and continued to rest in the back seat of the Range Rover.
After leaving the Mu Family, they didn't go to the Wanyan Family.
Since it was already confird that the Jizhou Mu Family and the Wanyan Family were, in fact, one and the sa, there was no need to go to such trouble.
"Ma, speed up."
Jiang Xinghai calculated the ti. 'There's not enough of it.'
He had promised Lin Liping he would hold a one-hour clinic at Jishan Hall every day.
This afternoon, he also had to return to the company to supervise the security assessnt.
Furthermore, the fact that Shen Lingxue and Su Yanyun were out negotiating business was a constant source of concern for him.
「Ti passed.」
「10:30 AM.」
Just as the Range Rover entered the Jizhou jurisdiction, Jiang Xinghai received a call from Lin Liping.
"Xinghai, I forgot to tell you, Lulu and I have arrived in the Provincial City. We're here to get the paperwork finalized. We should be back before dark," Lin Liping said, her voice slightly apologetic.
After a brief chat, Jiang Xinghai had a sudden realization.
After hanging up, he shot an angry glare at Xue Zhong.
"Master, who angered you?" Xue Zhong was completely stunned.
"Old Xue, you don't handle things properly," Jiang Xinghai said in a low voice.
"This humble disciple doesn't know what I did to incur Master's wrath." Xue Zhong broke out in a cold sweat and lowered his head.
"Last night, you sent your disciple to the Imperial City overnight to deliver the docunts to the National dical Hall. I actually had so expectations for you."
"But your disciple left the job half-done! Why did Liping still need to go to the Provincial City's branch of the National dical Hall to file the papers herself just to get the signed docunts?" Jiang Xinghai demanded, his face stern.
If Xue Zhong hadn't been sitting in the car, he would have definitely knelt. "Sigh, it is my failure to discipline my own disciple. Please punish , Master."
"Forget it."
Jiang Xinghai sighed softly and looked at Ma Long. "Ma, I'm borrowing the car. You and Old Xue can do as you please."
Then, he drove away.
Along the way, he dialed Shen Lingxue's number.
"Lingxue, the company's security assessnt doesn't start until this afternoon. I'll co et up with you first," Jiang Xinghai said with a faint smile.
"You should just stay at the company. By the way, there's a package from the Imperial City addressed to you. It's in the security office."
Shen Lingxue pursed her lips slightly and added, "As for us, the negotiations are going very well. We should be able to finalize the contract after lunch. Don't worry."
"In that case, send your location, just to be safe." Jiang Xinghai felt he had to be on his guard.
With the Shen Family on the verge of ascending to the status of a First-class Clan, the underworld was bound to be turbulent.
Soon, the call ended.
When Jiang Xinghai arrived at the Shen Group, he rushed into the security office.
'A package from the Imperial City?'
Jiang Xinghai's eyes showed a mix of doubt and a glimr of anticipation.
Currently, the only person he knew in the Imperial City was his junior martial sister, Zhao Linglong.
'Could it be that she's already found that mastermind who murdered my parents, the man known as Mr. Long?'
