Supreme Dragon Palace

There is a tea house, private rooms facing the street on the third floor.

Yuan Xinrou, who had just left, went back and forth, sitting cross-legged on the soft couch in the private room, reaching out to pick up a cup of steaming tea in front of her.

The tea soup is orange-yellow and bright, the leaves are red and green, and the aroma is strong, smelling like orchids, and the fragrance is high and long-lasting.

Yuan Xinrou moved gracefully, took a small sip, closed his eyes and thought about it, feeling very intoxicated.

"Good tea, this is the top-quality tea from the Dahongpao mother tree, right? Although the Duan family has gone downhill now, the heritage is still there. Now the tea from this mother tree cannot be obtained with money."

Sitting opposite Yuan Xinrou was the owner of this teahouse, Duan Jiajia, the fourth lady of the Duan family.

She picked up the teacup and took a sip, then said with a smile, "These tea leaves have been kept in Duan's house for several years, if you like to drink them, then drink a few more cups, you're welcome."

Yuan Xinrou glanced at Duan Jiajia and said, "I thought you would say that if you like to drink, you can bring me some back."

"You think too much." Duan Jiajia said directly.

"Stingy!" Yuan Xinrou replied cowardly, picked up the teacup and drank it down in one gulp, then poured himself another cup.

"Jiajia, your tea house is doing very well. People come and go, so you can make a lot of money in a day, right?"

Duan Jiajia sipped his tea, and replied in a neutral tone: "It's not bad, the average net profit per day is about seven or eight thousand."

"A net profit of seven or eight thousand a day? More than 20 a month? Two or three million a year? You make so much money in this small teahouse, Jiajia, how about I come here to open a teahouse too?"

Yuan Xinrou seemed shocked by this amount, and also came up with the idea of ​​doing business on Nanzheng Street.

Duan Jiajia glanced at the other party, and said slowly: "You, Yuan Xinrou, still think about these millions? Let's talk about things directly, don't beat around the bush."

Yuan Xinrou put down the cup, grinned, and said, "Jiajia, do you know who is going to open a flower shop there?"

Duan Jiajia frowned slightly, stared at Yuan Xinrou with deep eyes, and did not speak.

"It's really a coincidence that the owner of the flower shop asked me to do this decoration design for them!" Yuan Xinrou looked at Duan Jiajia with a smile, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

Duan Jiajia raised his eyebrows, and said calmly: "And then?"

"Then? Jiajia, we've known each other for so long, and people don't say dark words? You don't want to pretend to be calm in front of me. In fact, you are very panicked now. Am I right?" Yuan Xinrou was a little confused Said proudly.

This time, she can be regarded as overwhelming Duan Jiajia!

"..."

Duan Jiajia was still silent, but his face was even more ugly.

She knew that there was absolutely nothing good for Yuan Xinrou to come to the teahouse to look for her suddenly.

Sure enough, this Yuan Xinrou also set his sights on the boss behind the opposite flower shop!

The Yuan family and the Duan family are in the same situation now. The previous generation is old, but the younger generation has no one who can carry the flag. The strength of the family has gradually declined.

Therefore, the two of them are eager to seek foreign aid and find a strong backing for the family, otherwise, sooner or later they will be swallowed up by other families...

However, in comparison, the situation of the Yuan family is even worse than that of the Duan family.

Duan Jiajia is not in a hurry.

"You won, I admit defeat." In the end, Yuan Xinrou raised her hand and surrendered. She was defeated by Duan Jiajia's infinite silence, "Jiajia, let's cooperate."

"Why should I cooperate with you? Your Yuan family is in danger. Cooperating with you will do me no good. And with your Yuan family's help to hold those families, it is completely enough for my Duan family's layout." Duan Jiajia lightly With a laugh, he looked joking.

Yuan Xinrou sneered when he heard the words, and said, "Jiajia, I think our two families are now very cold-hearted."

"My Yuan family is swallowed up, and the strength of those families will also skyrocket. At that time, even if your Duan family can win the favor of Mr. Yu, what can you do? Don't forget, that Mr. Yu After all, my lord only has the strength of Fenghuangji, can he help you block the power of those families?"

"Jiajia, at this time, don't be so naive! Our two families should help each other. Only in this way can we get rid of those hungry wolves! Otherwise, once the Yuan family falls, the target of those hungry wolves will be you The Duan family is gone!"

After Yuan Xinrou finished speaking aggressively, he picked up the teacup and drank it down in one gulp.

Duan Jiajia looked heavy and remained silent.

Her original plan was to leave the Yuan family alone and let those families compete to divide the Yuan family. In this way, the Duan family could have a moment of respite and have enough time to make arrangements.

However, hearing what Yuan Xinrou said at this moment, she also realized the fatal flaw in her plan!

Hungry wolves have always been ignorant!
As Yuan Xinrou said, once those families have tasted the sweetness from the Yuan family, they will immediately turn their guns and deal with the Duan family as they were. When the time comes...

Duan Jiajia acted decisively, looked up at Yuan Xinrou, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, I agree to cooperate, and I will go to persuade Duan's parents to reach an agreement with Yuan's family as soon as possible."

"That's right, this is the most sensible choice. You don't have to worry about my side. I have already stated the pros and cons to the elders of the Yuan family. They all expressed their willingness to join forces with the Duan family to fight against those families." Wolf ambition." Yuan Xinrou said with a smile.

"When did the Yuan family choose Yu Ran? How do you want to win him over?" Since they were about to cooperate, Duan Jiajia no longer cared so much.

Yuan Xinrou shook his head and said: "Yu Ran is not our only candidate, our Yuan family is also secretly contacting several other strong men who may step into the realm of the great emperor, who among them will be the first to step into the realm of the great emperor?" , we will cooperate with whomever, and give him the position of enshrining the Great Elder!"

"To enshrine the position of Great Elder! That's one person under ten thousand people! You guys are really generous!" Duan Jiajia said in surprise.

"This matter is of great importance. We must ensure that we hit the target with one blow. As the saying goes, we don't want children to be caught by wolves!" Yuan Xinrou shrugged and said as a matter of course.

Duan Jiajia nodded and said, "I agree with that, but our Duan family has only taken a fancy to Yu Ran from the beginning to the end."

"Is your Duan family crazy? How is this Yu Ran worth your gamble?" Yuan Xinrou thought it was incredible that the Duan family didn't leave any future plans and bet all their future on Yu Ran alone!

If Yu Ran refuses to cooperate, the Duan family will face the siege of several other powerful families alone!

"In my opinion, we have to cooperate with Yu Ran. If it is someone else, even the Great Emperor will not do. Unless we are attached to the Yinzong, if that is the case, our Duan family would rather disappear." Duan Jiajia said awe-inspiringly .

Yuan Xinrou was silent for a long time, sighed lightly, and said with a wry smile: "Duan Jiajia, I really admire you. No wonder the ancestors praised you in the past. Heroines do not let men down. I was not convinced before, but now I am convinced, just I can't compare to you in this courage."

"It's just, can you tell me why we have to cooperate with Yu Ran?" Yuan Xinrou asked puzzled.

"You must know Yu Ran's multiple identities, and with his skills these days, do you think someone else can do what he is?" Duan Jiajia asked rhetorically.

Yuan Xinrou fell silent, and after a long time, she opened her mouth and said, "Concubine Jun Luo is going to restart the land of the gods, you should have heard about it, right?"

"I didn't expect this Jun's family to lose three treasure hunting teams in a row, and they still don't give up on the land of the gods."

"However, the Jun family has learned how to behave this time, and is not as reckless as before."

"Concubine Jun Luo took advantage of the auction to fool a group of powerful practitioners, and planned to let these practitioners take the lead in hunting for treasures for the Jun family."

"Hehe, Concubine Jun Luo can only fool those fools who don't know the details..."

Yuan Xinrou sneered, as if she was laughing at those idiots who were fooled by Concubine Jun Luo.

Duan Jiajia smiled and said, "How could I not know such a big thing?"

"There are more than 100 people who bought quotas."

"...If you ask me, these people are either crazy, or their brains are flooded. They spent 100 billion to buy a quota of nine deaths and no lives. Hehe, do they really think that the Jun family will be so generous? If the land of the gods is safe, How could you allow outsiders to get involved?" Yuan Xinrou rolled her eyes, feeling super contemptuous of those who spend money to die.

Duan Jiajia coughed lightly, and said quietly, "Yu Ran, I also bought this quota."

"What!" Yuan Xinrou opened his mouth wide, with an expression of disbelief.

Then she couldn't help but sighed, and said regretfully, "It seems that I have to focus on the other candidates, Jiajia, your Duan family should have made preparations early, others don't know about the place where the gods have fallen. You should be very clear about the degree of danger."

"The emperor can't enter, the emperor can enter, there is no one out of ten, even those who can get away with one life by chance, they all become waste!"

"Yu Ran's trip is probably a disaster!"

When Yuan Xinrou said this, he felt very fortunate that the Yuan family didn't put all their eggs in one basket.

Although the other candidates were inferior to Yu Ran in every aspect, at least those candidates would not commit suicide.

"Why, are you planning to give up Yu Ran?"

Duan Jiajia asked.

Yuan Xinrou shook his head and said: "I don't like to give up halfway, I finally got in touch, let's take a look first, maybe a miracle will happen!"

A smile flashed across Duan Jiajia's eyes, and he said, "Why don't we make a bet on whether Yu Ran can return safely from the Land of God's Fall? How about it?" For some reason, Duan Jiajia had great confidence in Yu Ran. I always feel that not only can Yu Ran return safely from the land of the gods, but he can also take this opportunity to step into the realm of the emperor in one fell swoop!
Of course, it's not easy for her to tell Yuan Xinrou about this baseless subjective expectation.

Duan Jiajia and Yuan Xinrou had a happy chat in the private room of the teahouse, and at this time, Yu Ran had already driven Su Qingyu to the flower planting base in the suburbs.

According to Long Yi's reply, this is the largest flower planting base in Linhai City.

"Good afternoon, both of you. Are you Mr. Yu and Mrs. Yu?" Just as Yu Ran and Su Qingyu stood still, a middle-aged man who had obviously been waiting for a long time stepped forward to greet him with a very respectful attitude.

Yu Ran took a step forward, stretched out his hand to shake each other, and said with a smile, "Hello, I'm Yu Ran."

"Hi, hello, Mr. Yu, I am the person in charge of this flower base. My name is Xu Lou. Mr. Yu can call me Xiaolou." Xu Lou put his posture very low, with a touch of flattery in his expression.

Yu Ran glanced at Xu Lou, who was obviously a round older than him, and said with a smile, "I'll call you Mr. Xu. We're in a hurry, so why don't you take us to choose varieties first?" We have to pick up Xiaosiyu at four o'clock , Yu Ran did not study flowers by himself, the huge flower base could not be seen at a glance, they went to see it by themselves, and did not know when they would go to see it.

"Okay, okay, this way, please..." Xu Lou turned slightly sideways, and made a gesture of invitation.

Isn't this Xu Lou too polite?Su Qingyu asked Yu Ran with her eyes.

"I asked Long Yi to check the Linhai Flower Market before, I guess Long Yi has already said hello." Yu Ran leaned into Su Qingyu's ear and explained in a low voice.

Su Qingyu suddenly realized.

Yu Ran led Su Qingyu to the flower base.

Xu Lou was half a step behind, leading the way while introducing the varieties of flowers in his base in detail...

Yu Ran just listened carefully, let Qing Yu decide which flower to choose, he didn't know much about it, and he didn't study it.

"Do you two have a favorite category? I can assure you that this is the largest flower trading market in Linhai. The variety of flowers here is also the most complete, which can fully meet the needs of flower shops. If you two decide, the price will definitely be the most affordable Yes." Xu Lou's words were not false at all.

He would never dare to fool Mr. Long Yi's friends!

"I think either one looks good, and I mainly have to ask my wife's opinion."

Yu Ran turned to look at Su Qingyu, and said.

Su Qingyu smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Xu, I will give you an answer in a few days."

"Okay, Mrs. Yu, here is my business card. You have decided what kind of flowers you need. I can send someone to deliver them to you right away with just a phone call." Xu Lou took out an exquisite business card and handed it to you with a smile. Su Qingyu.

Su Qingyu took the business card and glanced at it, then put the business card in the bag, and said apologetically, "Then I will trouble Mr. Xu today."

"No trouble, no trouble, it's my honor for the two of you to come to my flower base!" Xu Lou smiled until the creases on his face came out.

"Okay, that's all for today, Mr. Xu, let's go first and say goodbye."

Yu Ran nodded slightly to say hello, and led Su Qingyu to the parking lot.

Xu Lou enthusiastically followed behind and sent Yu Ran and Su Qingyu to the car.

"Both of you, go slowly..." After waiting for Yu Ran's car to disappear from sight, Xu Lou put down his hands, rubbed his stiff face, and let out a breath of foul air.

"Old man, what are the origins of these two? You actually let you receive them in person in such a humble manner?" A girl in a pink sweater and pleated skirt walked past with a lollipop in her mouth, and put her hand on Xu Lou's shoulder, and asked curiously.

This girl is Xu Lou's only daughter, Xu Qingqing.

Xu Lou glanced at Xu Qingqing, and said in a deep voice, "You are so beautifully dressed, where are you going?"

"Of course I'm going to play, do you want to go together? Old man, you are not too young, do you really want to spend your whole life here? Moon, we must learn to enjoy life and enjoy life." Xu Qingqing said earnestly, licking the lollipop.

Xu Lou suddenly asked with a serious face: "Have you completed today's practice task?"

"...It's done, old man, what's the use of my practice? You don't allow me to show it, and you force me to practice every day. Isn't this a waste of my great youth?" Xu Qingqing complained dissatisfied.

"Doesn't letting you use it now means it's useless, plan ahead, understand, anyway, just be obedient to me, I can allow you to go out and have fun, but you must complete the daily practice tasks, and you are not allowed to slack off." Xu Lou said sternly with a straight face.

"Okay, okay, I understand, old man, I will promise to practice every day, is there anything else? I will say goodbye first."

Xu Qingqing waved her hands impatiently, got into a trot, and disappeared with a whoosh.

Xu Lou looked at the headlights in the distance, frowned, and muttered to himself: "I have been incognito in this suburb for 20 years, and now, I have finally waited for an opportunity. What I want is not to prove how great I am, I just want to Get back what I lost!"

Xu Lou looked at the sky in the northwest direction, and there was a bit of chill in his eyes...

In the car.

While driving to Xiao Siyu's kindergarten, Yu Ran asked, "Qingyu, are you not satisfied with those flowers?"

Although Su Qingyu didn't show anything, Yu Ran could still feel some emotional changes in Su Qingyu.

Su Qingyu's response to those flowers was mediocre, and she didn't seem very satisfied.

"Aran, what kinds of flowers do you like?" Su Qingyu asked without answering.

"I think it's all good. As long as it's fresh and the fragrance isn't too strong, I can accept it." Yu Ran replied.

Su Qingyu smiled and said: "You can name a few flowers, I can't get every kind of flower to be displayed in a flower shop."

"Just choose the variety you like. I'm not very interested in this flower." Yu Ran was a little embarrassed.

Su Qingyu paused for a while, and continued: "Okay, then let me talk about my thoughts. The flowers we just saw are not good enough, but I don't think they are special enough."

"My ideal flower shop doesn't say it must be unique, but it must be attractive enough. I want to search again to see if I can find what I want." Su Qingyu frowned slightly, quite distressed .

She knew that today they went to the largest flower base in Linhai, but for some reason, after seeing those beautiful flowers, she didn't have the urge to sell them in her shop!
Seeing Su Qingyu who was frowning tightly, Yu Ran said softly: "Give me some time, I will try my best to find flowers that satisfy you before your flower shop opens."

"Ah? Ran, to be honest, I don't even know what kind of flowers I want. Although I have had the wish of a flower shop since I was a child, but when I saw those flowers in Mr. Xu's base today, I don't know why. What's going on, I'm actually a little bit lost..."

"It's okay, you don't want to flower shop, we can use that shop for other purposes, do whatever you like."

"No, that's not what I mean. I'm not saying I don't want a flower shop, or I don't want to sell ordinary flowers in my flower shop..."

"Oh! I see! Don't worry, I will definitely find flowers that satisfy you."

Listening to Su Qingyu's description, Yu Ran suddenly had an idea, maybe, he didn't need to find any flower base, he could make one by himself.

"Thank you, Aran."

Feeling Yu Ran's complete understanding, Su Qingyu was very moved.

"Mrs. Yu, we are a family, your business is mine." Yu Ran smiled tenderly, and began to take advantage of her.

Su Qingyu smiled shyly, bowed her head and said nothing.

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Yu Ran arrived at Xiao Siyu's kindergarten on time.

Xiao Siyu was standing at the gate of the kindergarten looking around.

"Siyu..."

After getting out of the car, Yu Ran strode towards his daughter, waving and shouting.

"Father!" Seeing Yu Ran, Si Yu immediately showed a big smile on his face, and ran towards Yu Ran happily.

Yu Ran picked up Siyu who ran over, and said, "Did Dad come in time?"

"Well, Dad, you came in time. I just came out of the classroom and walked to the gate, and you came!" Xiao Siyu said happily, wrapping her arms around Yu Ran's neck.

"Where's mother?" Xiao Siyu stretched her neck and looked around.

"Your mother is waiting in the car. Let's go, Mom and Dad will take you to eat pizza, how about it?" Yu Ran said.

"Okay, okay, Dad, I haven't eaten pizza for a long time, I want to eat durian pizza." Xiao Siyu shouted happily.

"Okay, no problem, let's say goodbye to the teacher first." Yu Ran smiled.

"Mr. Qin, goodbye."

Xiao Siyu enthusiastically waved to Teacher Qin.

"See you tomorrow, Xiao Siyu." Teacher Qin waved back enthusiastically.

Yu Ran nodded to Teacher Qin, and walked towards the car not far away with Xiao Siyu in his arms.

Su Qingyu saw their father and daughter coming, and opened the rear door ahead of time.

"Mom, I miss you so much!"

When Xiao Siyu saw her mother, she immediately broke free from Yu Ran's arms, trotted and climbed into the back seat of the car.

Su Qingyu hugged Xiao Siyu who rushed over, and said with a smile: "Mom misses you very much, every moment when you are not by Mommy's side, Mom misses you very much."

Hearing this, Xiao Siyu leaned contentedly in her mother's arms.

"Mom, I haven't eaten durian pizza for a long time. Dad said to take me to eat durian pizza later." Xiao Siyu buried her head in her mother's arms and said in a muffled voice.

Su Qingyu glanced at Yu Ran reproachfully, and said, "Honey, you are growing up now, so you should eat nutritiously and healthily. Besides, my mother read the news yesterday and reported that the things outside were unhygienic. Serve it to customers after getting up, the kitchen is not so hygienic, all kinds of detergents fall into the pot, we eat those things, it is harmful to the body."

"Uh..." Yu Ran sneered, and quickly changed his words, "Baby, Dad will make you pizza when I get home, okay? It's also durian flavored."

"But, Dad, can you cook?" Xiao Siyu seemed to have some disbelief in Yu Ran's cooking skills.

"Of course I'll do it, it's guaranteed to be better than the durian pizza outside." Yu Ran said swearingly, he is a man who vowed to be the perfect baby daddy, how can he be compared to the coquettish sluts outside?

"Let's drive to the supermarket first and get all the ingredients for making pizza, shall we?"

"Okay, okay, durian is delicious, I like to eat durian the most." Xiao Siyu clapped her hands and applauded.

The family of three bought durian, pineapple, flour, cheese, etc. from the supermarket.

After returning to the villa, Yu Ran opened the durian first, gave her daughter two pieces of durian, and then went to the kitchen to knead the dough to make pizza.

He had never done this before, so he called Leng Shuang to guide him.

With Lengshuang's secret assistance, Yu Ran quickly made a pizza dough.

Then he spread a layer of tomato sauce on the flatbread, placed sliced ​​durian and pineapple, and finally sprinkled with cheese.

When ready, put it on an oven tray, put it in the oven, bake for a while, then take it out and cut it into small pieces with a knife, and serve it to the table.

The whole room was filled with a strong durian fragrance.

Durian is a fruit that smells delicious to those who like it, but to those who don’t like it, it smells like shit, and the stench is unbearable.

Li Qin didn't like the smell of durian very much. When he smelled it, he almost threw up.

Xiao Siyu didn't understand, so she called her over to have a taste, she shook her head violently, opened the door and ran out, standing outside the door, taking a big gulp of fresh air.

Yu Ran and Su Qingyu both like to eat durian, they sat around the dining table to eat with Xiao Siyu.

Yu Ran forked a piece of durian pizza and put it on a plate, then handed it to Xiao Siyu, who had already coveted Xiao Siyu immediately picked up the fork and ate it.

"It's super delicious, thank you Dad, your craftsmanship is really great!" Xiao Siyu gave Yu Ran a thumbs up while eating, making Yu Ran's face wrinkled with joy.

"Eat more if you like." Yu Ran forked another piece of pizza and put it on the plate in front of Si Yu, seeing Xiao Si Yu eating so happily, his heart was as sweet as eating honey.

Xiao Siyu's stomach became swollen just eating pizza at night. After the two of them took a walk with Xiao Siyu to digest food, Su Qingyu took a bath for Xiao Siyu, read two picture books, and then turned off the lights and went to sleep.

Seeing that her daughter was fast asleep, Su Qingyu got up and tucked her in the quilt, and walked out gently.

And Yu Ran was in the study at this time, holding a spirit crystal in his left hand and a bucket in his right hand, and entered the ring space like this.

As soon as he entered the ring space, he went straight to the back mountain, filled a small bucket of lake water in the Linghu Lake, and then returned to the thatched cottage. Taking advantage of the difference in time between the inner and outer spaces, he began to carefully read books on talismans.

Yu Ran has always believed that Fulu, an auxiliary skill, is very practical and can be used as one of his trump cards at critical moments. If he encounters an emperor-level powerhouse who is stronger than him, he can use the power of this trump card to catch him by surprise.

When you read a book carefully, time always flies by quickly.

Before he could figure out a book, Yu Ran felt dizzy for a while. He knew that the spiritual crystal was about to run out, so he put down the book and held the small bucket next to him in his hand.

hum!
There was a moment of illusion in front of his eyes, and Yu Ran, who was carrying the small bucket, returned to the study again. He looked down, but luckily, not a single drop of water in the small bucket spilled out...
