Chapter 911: Be More Bearable
"Oh, the master is in the hall. Mr. Jiang, please follow me." The servant said respectfully.
"Mr. Jiang."
Li Feihong followed Jiang Chen closely and whispered, "If my father punishes me later, please bear with me."
"Um."
Jiang Chen nodded in agreement.
A moment later, they arrived outside the Lei family's hall.
Inside the hall, there was a large round table with people sitting on both sides. One of them was Li Yuande, the head of the Li family.
"Master, the person is here." The servant led Jiang Chen into the hall.
"Master Li."
Jiang Chen bowed.
Seeing Jiang Chen appear, the originally noisy scene suddenly became silent.
Li Yuande raised his head, his eyes sparkling as he looked at Jiang Chen.
"Are you Jiang Chen?"
Li Yuande asked calmly, without any respect at all.
Jiang Chen frowned. Was this a show of power to intimidate him?
"Yes." Jiang Chen replied.
"I heard that you want to compete with my son for the Hundred Flower Fruit?" Li Yuande asked again.
"Yeah." Jiang Chen nodded.
"Do you know that this hundred-flower fruit is priceless?"
Li Yuande said slowly: "My son is determined to get it. If you want to take it away, you should consider your own weight first."
"Are you threatening me?"
Jiang Chen said with a half-smile.
"No."
Li Yuande shook his head and said with a smile: "I am just stating the facts. With your current strength, I am afraid you can't keep the Hundred Blossom Fruit."
"How about this, I'll give you a chance. If you're willing to be my slave, maybe you can save your life."
Hearing this, Jiang Chen showed a hint of sarcasm and said lightly: "Sorry, I don't like being a slave."
"Humph, you don't know what's good for you!"
Li Yuande snorted coldly, annoyed by Jiang Chen's rejection.
Immediately, his eyes became sharp and stared at Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen looked calm and was not intimidated by Li Yuande.
"Mr. Jiang, please step back first."
Li Feihong noticed the tit-for-tat between the two and said hurriedly.
Jiang Chen didn't move and looked at Li Yuande.
Li Yuande narrowed his eyes slightly, revealing a sense of danger.
But soon, Li Yuande restrained his murderous intent and said lightly: "Your Li family cooperates with our Lei family and provides us with spiritual medicine and alchemists. You need to pay top-grade spiritual stones every year."
"According to the rules, I'll pay 5,000 yuan a month. What do you think?"
Li Feihong's face was stiff. He didn't expect that the Li family's business would be so bleak.
"Master Li, have you forgotten one thing? We are here to discuss business, and I am not an alchemist." Jiang Chen said calmly.
"Mr. Jiang, if you help my Li family, we can give you more rewards. What do you think?" Li Feihong said .
"Not interested."
Jiang Chen shook his head and prepared to turn around and leave.
Looking at his back, Li Yuande suddenly said, "Mr. Jiang, don't forget that you are from Jiang's Company."
Swish~
Hearing Li Yuande's words, Jiang Chen stopped abruptly.
"I think you don't have to worry, because Jiang's company is about to be finished."
Seeing Jiang Chen stop, Li Yuande grinned with a cruel look in his eyes.
Of course, he investigated the affairs of Jiang's Company.
"What do you want to do?" Li Feihong asked in surprise. He did not expect Li Yuande to say this.
Li Yuande ignored Li Feihong and continued, "Our Lei family can help you solve this problem."
"Although the Lei family is strong, Jiang's Company has not made any mistakes, so why should we deal with it?"
"hehe."
Li Yuande sneered, "You think the Lei family can dominate Qingyang County? Our Li family alone is not enough to compete."
"The Lei family secretly trains several martial arts masters. No one dares to provoke them except my Li family. Do you think they will allow other forces to share the Hundred Blossom Fruit?"
Hearing this, Jiang Chen suddenly realized.
No wonder Li Yuande is so confident, it turns out that the Lei family has a martial arts master!
"The martial arts masters of the Lei family are very powerful, several times stronger than our Li family. Do you think that the Li family can defeat them?"
"Master Li, I can't help you with this."
After a moment's silence, Jiang Chen responded calmly.
"you……"
Li Feihong's eyes widened. He never expected that Jiang Chen would actually reject the Li family.
"Hmph, since you refuse to repent, don't blame me, Li, for being ruthless." Li Yuande said in a cold voice with a cold face.
"father!"
Li Feihong was extremely anxious. He really didn't expect that Jiang Chen would actually reject the Lei family.
The head of the Lei family said personally that Jiang Chen could cure Lei Shaoyu's illness, and the Li family could not lose this cash cow!
Boom!
Suddenly, the door was pushed open from the outside with a deafening noise.
"who?"
Everyone stood up and looked at the door, only to see Lei Yun walking in with two men.
"Master Lei."
Seeing the thunderclouds, everyone got up quickly.
Jiang Chen saw Lei Yun with a blank expression on his face, obviously not recognizing him.
"Mr. Jiang, this is the head of the Lei family, Lei Yun." Li Feihong introduced via voice transmission.
"So he is the patriarch of the Lei family." Jiang Chen suddenly realized.
"Brother Lei, why did you suddenly come to my Li family?" Li Yuande asked enthusiastically.
Lei Yun ignored Li Yuande, fixed his eyes on Jiang Chen, and said in a cold tone: "I heard that you can cure my son?"
Li Yuande's face darkened as he sensed a terrible evil spirit emanating from the thundercloud.
This kind of evil spirit is suffocating.
Li Feihong also realized that Lei Yun's identity was not simple and he must have experienced a lot of blood and gore.
"Who are you?" Jiang Chen pretended not to know.
"Humph, why are you pretending to be stupid?"
Lei Yun said coldly: "You are the newly hired alchemist of the Li family. I have already investigated it clearly."
Jiang Chen nodded slightly. He didn't expect that Lei Yun had already investigated his identity.
However, Lei Yun found out that Jiang Chen was an alchemist, but he didn't know that Jiang Chen inherited the legacy of an immortal doctor and could refine pills.
"Now that Brother Lei has figured things out, let's sit down and talk."
Li Yuande smiled and invited Lei Yun to take a seat.
"I asked you to come here today because I hope you can become my son's personal bodyguard." Lei Yun said.
"How is this possible?"
Hearing this, Li Feihong exclaimed, his face full of disbelief.
"What I just said still counts."
Lei Yun said calmly, "As long as you agree, I will give you double the conditions."
As he spoke, he took out three high-quality spirit stones and handed them to Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen reached out and grabbed it, then looked at it with a puzzled look on his face. He had indeed never heard of the Lei family.
"Mr. Jiang, this is a spirit stone, you can't just take it!" Li Feihong reminded hurriedly.
Top-grade spirit stones are extremely precious. If Jiang Chen sells them, he can exchange them for a large amount of gold coins.
Unfortunately, Jiang Chen had no idea what a top-grade spirit stone represented, so he didn’t play with it and threw it directly into his storage ring.
"Mr. Jiang, I advise you to think it over carefully."
Leiyun spoke again.
"The Lei family's conditions are very generous, but I'm not interested."
Jiang Chen said indifferently: "Master Li, goodbye."
Leaving these words behind, he left the hall.
"Asshole!"
