Return to the month before the end of the world

Cui Xujie and Li Jing were silent. They didn't know the current plight of mankind. They were just following the crowd. They comforted themselves by saying that they were doing this for the survival of the family.

As people trained by elite education, they certainly know how naive this statement is, but people's greed is never-ending. Isn't the chaotic environment an opportunity for them?

"I'm not interested in Yucheng's affairs, as long as the interests of Taohuayuan are not affected, and I don't want any of you to become the only partner. I don't want to cultivate a monster myself."

Xiao Chan's straightforward words left the two speechless. They also understood why Xiao Chan was unwilling to see them before. The purpose was not to get involved in Yucheng's affairs.

Cui Xujie took a deep breath: "We did do some outrageous things before. I believe President Xiao can also understand that in troubled times, we only want to rely on our own strength to protect ourselves. Please forgive me, President Xiao."

Li Jing quickly understood the meaning of the other party's words. Under the current circumstances, it was impossible to fall out. All he could do was to try his best to maintain the relationship between the two parties.

Xiao Chan was stunned for a moment and gave her own answer: "I don't understand what you two are talking about. We don't seem to have anything to do with each other, so naturally there is no dispute of interest."

"To be honest, we did do some wrong things before. We hope that President Xiao can come forward to help us persuade City Master Yang. I just heard that a bank has been established in Taohuayuan. My Cui family welcomes Taohuayuan Bank to settle in Yucheng."

Li Jing also looked at his friend with some surprise. He knew that this time was to eliminate the previous misunderstanding between the two parties, but he did not expect Cui Xujie to put in such great effort.

"Our Cui family is willing to use 500 million grains to clear up the previous misunderstanding. Of course, I will not let President Xiao travel in vain. Our Cui family still has some strength in Yucheng. If President Xiao needs anything, just give him orders? Other than that, In addition, we are willing to provide 200 million kilograms of grain as payment."

Li Jing was completely dumbfounded, and even Xiao Chan was a little confused.

"Master Cui, it doesn't matter what I say. I will convey my intention of reconciliation to City Master Yang, but is the price too high?"

Xiao Chan's subtext is obvious, that is, she does not believe that Cui Xujie spent so much money just to clear up the misunderstanding.

That's a total of 700 million kilograms of grain. Even if the Cui family is a big business and a hungry family, it would probably take a lot of effort to come up with so much grain, but this can also show the strength of the Cui family.

"Of course it's worth it, and I hope to maintain a good cooperative relationship with President Xiao."

Li Jing suddenly realized that Cui Xujie was nominally trying to eliminate the misunderstanding with Yang Mingyu, but actually wanted to build a good relationship with Xiao Chan. Although he would suffer heavy losses temporarily, he would undoubtedly gain more.

But even though he knew this, he didn't dare to speak casually. That was a total of 700 million kilograms of grain. If he was not careful, the Li family would be on the verge of bankruptcy.

"I will convey the thoughts of the Cui family to the City Master Yang, and we can talk about the future matters at some time, how about it?"

"Okay." Cui Xujie agreed happily.

Looking at Li Jing who was still hesitating, Cui Xujie hesitated for a moment but still didn't speak. After all, the two sides were in a competitive relationship.

Xiao Chan left the affairs here to the Detachment of Women. In fact, there was nothing wrong with it, and no one dared to come here to cause trouble.

But just when everyone was about to leave for the imperial city, the apes appeared again.

The people from Yucheng were startled, while the people from Chaoyang City next to them looked on laughing.

"This is my pet, it won't hurt anyone."

Xiao Chan explained and walked towards the ape: "Why are you here again?"

There was a hint of flattery on the ape's face: "I want to see the king."

After a period of communication, he found that this group of people did not seem to be as vicious as imagined, at least they were quite friendly to them.

After hearing the ape's request, Xiao Chan nodded in agreement and took him away from here. As he walked, he said, "I just gave him some treasures and he is probably still sleeping. How is the development of your tribe?"

"We have gathered some tribesmen, and it will take time to develop and grow."

After the ape said that, he followed Xiao Chan into a room. At a glance, he saw the king who had grown in size and had a rosy face. He was very excited. He knew that humans did not lie to him and really provided the king with treasures to help him grow.

"Okay, I still have things to deal with. You should go back as soon as you finish reading. By the way, I heard that the monkey wine you brew is special. It's best to brew more. I can exchange it for you with other supplies. .”

"it is good."

-

Just as Xiao Chan and the others were heading to the room, Cui Xujie and Li Jing were also chatting.

"Brother Cui, is your decision too hasty?" Li Jing asked in confusion.

"Brother Li, we can be regarded as grasshoppers on the same rope. Since you took the initiative to ask, I have only one thing to say. If you don't continue to suffer from it, think about it yourself." Cui Xujie thought that the two families had always been on good terms. , being able to help also strengthens the friendship between the two families. As for whether Li Jing listens to the advice or not, it is his own business.

Li Jing didn't understand the meaning, but Cui Xujie had no intention of explaining.

After a while, the two of them saw Xiao Chan who had sent away the ape. Cui Xujie took the initiative to come over and complimented: "President Xiao is really awesome. He even has exotic animals as pets."

"By chance, I thought this place was good and planned to stay here, but I didn't expect them to be unwilling. Then only a few of them succumbed to me."

Cui Xujie felt his throat was a little dry, and then he remembered that the man in front of him was not only a businessman, but also a ruthless man who built a city in a dangerous wilderness with his bare hands. How could he do it without enough strength.

A group of people took a car to Yucheng. Xiao Chan and Cui Xujie chatted casually about home affairs along the way, but Li Jing seemed to be hesitating about something.

After returning to Yucheng, Li Jing and Cui Xujie left with great discernment, leaving Xiao Chan to be the lobbyist alone.

Seeing that Li Jing still hadn't come to his senses, Cui Xujie helplessly reminded: "If you can't make a decision right now, you might as well ask the old man."

Li Jing immediately agreed and went back to ask the old man for advice.

Cui Xujie returned home and announced his decision in front of all the clan members.

There is no doubt that this incident caused an uproar in the Cui family and was opposed by many people.

"Then let's separate the families. From now on, the properties of each family will be owned by each family. What do you think?"

The other branches immediately agreed. Although their property was small compared to the main line, it was enough for them to eat and drink for a lifetime.

The vote passed smoothly, but not everyone chose to leave. There were still smart people who chose to stay.

"Lao Wu, aren't you planning to leave?"

Lao Wu snorted coldly: "Why should I leave? Why should you enjoy such wealth all to yourself?"

"You guy."

Cui Xujie was not surprised at all. Although his fifth brother was usually not a showy person, only a few people knew that he was not simple.
