The big bandit in the Red Mansion robbed Lin Daiyu at the beginning

Linghu Chong looked at the people downstairs, snorted, and said with a little disdain,

"Don't worry, I, Qingfeng Village, don't take these rabble down seriously."

Listening to Linghu Chong's words, Xue Pan couldn't help but be secretly shocked.

It's like a tiger yawning, what a loud voice!

However, due to his long-standing trust in Linghu Chong, Xue Pan suppressed his worries and nodded slightly.

At this time, Linghu Chong withdrew his gaze and looked at Xue Pan and asked,

"I wonder what Madam Xue and Miss think of our appointment that day?"

Xue Pan's eyes became evasive when he heard this.

"Brother Chong, this, this..."

Linghu Chong frowned.

"Brother Xue, I'm not asking you this as a brother, but as the deputy hall master. I've already told you the rules, so please don't make things difficult for me!"

It turned out that after Xue Pan requested many times and expressed his willingness to serve through all channels of the Feng family, he was finally approved by Qingfeng Village and became a team leader of the Sanhuai Hall of Qingfeng Village, under the command of Linghu Chong.

Originally, all of this was done in secret.

But after Linghu Chong learned that the master of the Shen Gong Hall was punished by the peak master, he wanted to do more meritorious deeds for the hall master to atone for his sins.

After Xue Pan officially joined Qingfeng Village, he gave him a task.

In addition, he wanted to repay the Xue family for their respect for him, so he asked him to tell Madam Xue about this matter, and he also intended to bring the entire Xue family under the control of Qingfeng Village.

After all, in his opinion, Jinling will sooner or later become the territory of Qingfeng Village.

The Feng brand is just a channel network, which is not enough to guarantee the future status of the entire Xue family in Qingfeng Village.

Xue Pan naturally obeyed, but after telling his mother about this,

Xue's mother said she would discuss it with her daughter Xue Baochai, and there has been no answer until today.

It just so happened that Linghu Chong asked about it while he was out with Xue Pan at a restaurant today.

Xue Pan's expression changed slightly when he heard this, but he still hesitated and said,

"My mother and the others are planning to send my sister to Beijing to participate in the imperial selection held a while ago..."

When Linghu Chong heard this, he knew that Xue's mother obviously still did not trust Qingfeng Village, and his brows suddenly raised.

Xue Pan saw this and said quickly,

"So that Brother Chong can know that my sister is only 28 years old, which is exactly what the Ministry of Household Affairs requires for selection documents, and besides..."

Linghu Chong slammed the table, and the teacups on the table vibrated.

"The old emperor of Shenjing will be kicked out by our peak master sooner or later. Why send your sister to that hellish pit of Shenjing now?"

Xue Pan was frightened by Linghu Chong's anger, but he had to explain.

"Brother Chong, calm down. It's not that my mother doesn't want to, but it's really that our Xue family is very wealthy and many of the Feng-branded Beijing troops are still on the side of the imperial court."

"If we are accused of disobeying the emperor's orders, I'm afraid the Feng family will be wiped out in an instant. How can they be of any use to us?"

Having said that, Xue Pan looked at Linghu Chong with a somewhat evasive look.

"But, my mother also said, if, if..."

Linghu Chong couldn't help but frown when he heard this.

What Xue Pan said was not false. Although he had joined Qingfeng Village, many of the Xue family's businesses and networks were under the jurisdiction of the imperial court.

If the Xue family is directly incorporated into Qingfeng Village, then the brands in other places will definitely be eliminated by the court.

Qingfeng Village might not take the Xue family's wealth seriously, but the business that covers the whole country is something that even the leader of the village attaches great importance to.

Otherwise, he, a deputy hall master, would not have come to the Xue family specifically.

However, Linghu Chong is a hall master after all, so how could he not see through Xue's mother's thoughts?

They were simply worried that Qingfeng Village would be wiped out by the imperial court and the Xue family would be charged with accomplices.

Thinking of this, Linghu Chong said,

"What if?"

Xue Pan hurriedly said,

"My mother said that the leader of your village is a handsome young man with great potential, and my sister is in the prime of her life, ready to get married. If..."

Xue Pan did not continue to say the following words, but Linghu Chong also understood.

In his heart, he couldn't help but secretly admire Xue's mother's courage and vision!

During his time at the Xue family, he had already seen that although the Xue family also bore the name of the Jinling Protectorate, they had already been in trouble both internally and externally.

What Xue's mother said before, that she wanted to send her daughter Baochai to the capital for a beauty pageant, must be true.

Only in this way can he perhaps survive and continue the Xue family's wealth for decades.

But what Linghu Chong admired most was Xue's mother's courage.

He actually dared to bet all the treasures on Qingfeng Village before Qingfeng Village was completely accomplished.

If Qingfeng Village can really rebuild its fortunes, then what the Xue family is doing today can be described as a leap to heaven, and even continuing their wealth and prosperity for another few decades will be no problem.

However, Linghu Chong naturally could not make the decision on behalf of his own peak master in this matter.

But after all, opportunities are rare, and the Xue family's relationships with various parties and trade routes are urgently needed by Qingfeng Village.

Thinking of this, Linghu Chong looked at Xue Pan and said,

"I can't make the decision on this matter, but I will report it back and ask the Peak Master to make the decision!"
