Chapter 157 Ma
Zhang Ma and the servants behind him all laughed out loud, "What a joke, in Huanglong City, there are people who doubt whether our Zhang family has money?"
Ian nodded. "Well, even if I'm asking about your Zhang family, I guess you're just a good-for-nothing who only knows how to ruin the family."
He turned his head to look at Wan'er and asked:
"What does their family do?"
"The Zhang family has monopolized the business of Huanglong City with the elixirs refined by Master Dan Heng. Their financial resources are probably between 30 billion and 50 billion gold coins!"
Zhang Ma clapped her hands. "I never thought that the beautiful and talented Wan'er would pay enough attention to our Zhang family! In this case, why don't you marry me? If our two families form an alliance, Huanglong City and even the surrounding cities' businesses will be ours, and you will also get the most luxurious life and enjoyment, what a business talent! Tsk tsk..."
Situ Wan'er shook her head, "Master Zhang, you think too much!"
"You...Okay, okay, now that I've said it, I won't give up."
Zhang Ma's heart was indeed a little twisted. Ian stood there without saying anything. She thought he was afraid of the strength of the Zhang family. She snorted coldly, "Waiter, are you not doing business anymore? Hurry up and pack it for me."
The entire family only has a financial resource of 30 to 50 billion. How could Ian be afraid? He is planning something.
"Wan'er, let's go!"
Situ Wan'er looked at Ian in surprise, thinking: Why did my benefactor give up?
Zhang Ma and the others laughed loudly, "Hahahaha, it turns out you're just a poor guy. You don't even have the courage to fight me. Wan'er, you've got the wrong person."
Ian looked at him deeply without saying anything. More and more people gathered around to watch the fun, but no one came to stop them and they just walked out.
At this time, Zhang Ma also came out, and the clerk reminded him from behind:
"Master Zhang, you don't want the goods anymore? Master Zhang..."
One of the followers stopped the clerk and said, "What does our master need these for? Get lost..."
The clerk was left stamping his feet. Such a big business deal was ruined. If it had been successful, he would have received a bonus of several hundred gold coins. However, the strength of the Zhang family was such that even their boss was unwilling to offend. What else could he do?
Looking at Ian and the other three walking away quickly, Zhang Ma's confidant asked, "Sir, are you just going to let them go like this?"
"My father has slowly handed over some of the family business to me. It's time for me to do what I should do. Wan'er must be mine..."
Situ Wan'er gestured to Xiaohong, who bowed and turned away. Ian didn't care and asked as he walked:
"Miss Wan'er, do you know anything about Dan Heng's information?"
“Dan Heng is a fifth-grade alchemist. He also has a master whose name no one knows. He came to the Zhang family more than 20 years ago and relied on these two alchemists to become one of the big families in Huanglong City.
However, Dan Heng's master left the Zhang family ten years ago, leaving him alone.
This man lived a luxurious life and was extremely lustful and greedy for money. Half of the Zhang family's profits belonged to him.
There is a problem here. The Zhang family's nearly 40 billion in assets was reached ten years ago, and in the past ten years, the assets have increased by a maximum of 10 billion."
Ian nodded and said:
"That is to say, most of the Zhang family's assets were actually acquired by Dan Heng's master, and he was not so unscrupulous at that time. In the following ten years, Dan Heng created a maximum of 20 billion yuan, and he got half of it, 10 billion yuan?"
Wan'er smiled and said, "That's right, so I always felt that this matter was very strange."
"How to say?"
"Look, benefactor, first of all, when his master was here, the Zhang family developed very rapidly, so why did he suddenly leave later?
Second, why did the Zhang family let the older one go and keep the younger one?
Third, everything Danheng did was evil, so why was he so law-abiding when his master was around?
Fourth, Dan Heng took half of the profits, and the Zhang family still swallowed their anger. Dan Heng is only at the fifth level of cultivation, which proves that there may be some unknown power behind him! "
This girl is young, but she has such a meticulous mind, which is rare. Ian admires her very much for being able to analyze so many problems from just a few clues.
"Miss Wan'er is so smart. By the way, is there a good inn in the city? I want to stay here for a few days to do some business."
"My benefactor, it is my honor to have you here. How can I let you stay at the inn? Xiaolu, go back and make arrangements in advance. We will arrive later!"
Ian quickly stopped him, “No need for that, Xiaolu.
Wan'er, I like to be free, so I won't bother you. Just help me find an inn."
Seeing Ian say this, Situ Wan'er did not insist, "Then let's go to the Huanglong Inn. It is our Situ family's property, and it is more convenient to live there. Xiaolu, you can arrange it!"
"Yes, miss!"
Xiaolu walked quickly, and Ian and Wan'er followed slowly while chatting. "Wan'er, your Situ family should be affiliated with the Warring States Temple, right?"
“Yes, but after this disaster, my father asked the temple for help, but the temple only paid some supplies as compensation and was unwilling to accompany people to rescue me, which made my father feel cold.
My father said that they had learned that I had returned safely and that they would send someone to visit me in the near future.”
"Wan'er, you didn't tell anyone about us, right?"
"I only told my father and mother, and I also told them not to spread it. Don't worry, benefactor. I will talk to them again tonight."
"Well, don't reveal any information. Just say that you were rescued by a mysterious person and it has nothing to do with you."
"Okay, don't worry, benefactor!"
"Oh, Wan'er, the Dan Heng we just talked about, his master's alchemy skills should be much higher than his. What level of alchemy can he refine?"
Wan'er thought for a moment, "Alchemists are a very rare profession, even rarer than summoners. I remember that ten years ago, his master took out an eighth-grade elixir for auction, which was really amazing. It also alarmed the major forces on the entire continent. This person is very powerful.
Ten years ago, our Situ family was mainly engaged in the restaurant and inn business. The auction was held in our Huanglong Restaurant. The hype and publicity of this pill by our Situ family also alarmed the Temple and Cangqiong Academy. In the end, the pill was obtained by the Temple. Since then, our Situ family has been fortunately granted the responsibility of city lord by the Temple.
Not long after that, there was no news of that alchemist. Even his disciple Dan Heng didn't know about it, but I always felt that it was related to him."
"Does the Zhang family have a store? I want to go take a look."
"Yes, their largest store is right here, and we just happened to be passing by."
