Chapter 270 Maybe it’s still not too late
"Jincheng?"
"Yes, Jincheng is closer to Yangcheng, and transportation is more convenient. And once the power plant is operational, it will definitely attract many people to move to Jincheng. I was thinking of going to Jincheng when we return to Yangcheng to ask the Fourth Master for a shop in a better location.
"If we open a business with An Jincheng, the investment will be too huge. You've just taken over the position of head of the family, and investing so much money is too risky. I'm afraid the head of the family won't agree." Nanchun said awkwardly.
Bai Xun smiled and said, "Just do it if you want to."
Seeing that he looked confident, Nanchun couldn't help but ask, "Do you have a plan?"
Bai Xun said, "I have already bought a few shops and a house in Jincheng."
Nanchun smiled and said, "It seems we have such a keen eye for each other. We're thinking the same thing again."
"You don't have to worry about He'an. We have a ready-made shop. As for the capital investment... I want to take Jiang Wenjie and Jin Zirui with me. They are looking to invest money in the business.
"Bringing them along also means taking this opportunity to tie the Jiang and Jin families together with our Bai family. This way, even if you and I, and our brother, are not here, with the Jiang and Jin families around, our business will be fine," Bai Xun said.
"Okay, the goods all come from the merchants in Yangcheng anyway, so I'll take care of it when the time comes. Our order volume has increased, so I have to talk to Daniel about the price." Nanchun said with a smile.
Since he was going to open a business in He'an, Bai Xun probably wouldn't be able to leave for a while.
"Then... you can't go back to Yangcheng with me?" Nanchun said reluctantly.
Bai Xun touched his cheek and said, "I'll go back when I'm done."
Nanchun pouted and moved closer, and Baixun smiled and kissed him.
old house.
Bai Song said cheerfully, "Grandfather, Xundi has only been in charge for a few days, and he's already united all the merchants in He'an. Knowing he was going to open a business, the young masters of the Jiang and Jin families came to the Bai residence with boxes of gold bars and silver, saying they wanted to buy shares."
Bai Yishui was also happy.
He was somewhat dissatisfied with Bai Xun's previous involvement in the affairs of the Sheng family and Marshal Li, as he felt it was too risky.
He did a great job, saving the merchants in He'an County from losses and further enhancing the reputation of the Bai family.
It seems that he is indeed old, and he is cautious in doing things, and he no longer has the enterprising spirit of a young man.
"What about Xin Chuanling? What does he want to do?" Bai Yishui asked.
"After finishing He An's matter, grandson will go there in person." Bai Xun walked in and said.
Bai Yishui coughed lightly and said, "You want to go there in person? Xinchuan Ridge is extremely dangerous. Not only is it dangerous in the tomb, but it's even more dangerous for the living."
Bai Xun said, "Haven't you and your brother been with the team searching for tombs and exploring graves over the years? Now that I'm in charge of the Bai family, I have to understand these things."
"Yes, our team is now in a state of death and injury. We need someone to bring some personnel and supplies over to rebuild everyone's confidence." Bo Song said.
Bai Xun frowned slightly. "What does it mean that some died and some were injured? Did they get caught in the trap in the tomb?"
Bai Song shook his head. "It's a man-made disaster! Didn't I tell you before that the Sheng family might be eyeing our porcelain business? Our tomb-hunting team encountered a group of people in Xinchuanling some time ago, and they had a fierce conflict with our people.
The tomb passage we worked so hard to dig has been destroyed, and half of our personnel have been killed or injured. It's impractical to dig a tomb passage in the freezing snow. Therefore, most of our people have retreated down the mountain and will return to the area after they have recovered.
Bai Xun thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then wait until I get there before taking action! After the battle, the Sheng family probably won't dare to act rashly."
"Well, I left someone hiding in the dark, and they will send a message back if there is any unusual movement. Brother Xun, I really have to rely on you for Xin Chuanling's matter. Do you still remember the incident where the foreigner Peter was replaced?" Bai Song said.
"remember."
"What was exchanged was not silk, but porcelain." Bo Song said truthfully.
Bai Xun suddenly understood.
No wonder I always feel like something is wrong.
If it were just silk, my brother wouldn't be so nervous and wouldn't even dare to ship the goods out.
"These people should have planted spies in the kiln factory. To be on the safe side, I will stop this business. This matter can only be solved from the root. The group of people ambushing in Xinchuanling must be dealt with cleanly." Bai Song said.
"I understand, grandfather, brother. Since I have decided to take over, you don't have to hide anything from me." Bai Xun said.
"Of course, I wish you could help me share the pressure!" Bo Song said with a smile.
After coming out of the old house and sitting in the car, Bai Xun thought a lot.
There was something odd about the whole thing.
Especially the matter of Xin Chuanling.
When he went to Xinchuanling to look for Grandpa Nan, the group had been hiding in the dark, as if waiting for something.
He thought they wanted to wait for the Bai family to dig the tomb passage, find the tomb chamber where the treasure was hidden, and then come and rob it directly.
However, a fierce conflict suddenly broke out, and even the tomb passage dug by the Bai family was destroyed.
Conflicts are easy to understand, as they may involve fighting for advantageous positions or things.
Why can the tomb passage be destroyed?
Could it be that they no longer wanted those treasures? Did they no longer want to find the underground palace?
impossible!
If he didn't want it, he wouldn't have tried to disrupt the Bai family's porcelain business. He also went to great lengths to plant spies in the kiln factory and even risked being exposed to exchange the goods.
Bai Xun's heart trembled.
Could it be because they already have their own tomb passage?
Is the purpose of destroying the tomb passage to prevent the Bai family from finding the underground fairy palace?
Yes, they have well-trained personnel, top-notch weapons and equipment, and no shortage of supplies.
What if Grandpa Nan is added?
Then there is no need for them to stick to the path found by the Bai family.
Bai Xun breathed a sigh of relief.
Maybe it's not too late.
After Bai Xun left, Bai Yishui said with a stern face, "His heart is now with the Nan family. If he goes to Xinchuanling, I'm afraid he won't protect the interests of the Bai family at all. He only wants to save Nan Chenglin."
"Grandfather, don't worry. Didn't we agree to try our best? I'm going to Yuncheng in the next two days. I received a telegram from there." Bai Song said.
Fearing that Bai Yishui would quarrel with Bai Xun again over Nanchun's matter, Bai Song added, "Grandfather, Nanchun is still very useful, please don't touch him. I can't take care of Yangcheng if I'm in charge of Yuncheng's affairs.
Xundi now bears the responsibility of being the head of the family. He'an, Jincheng, and Xinchuanling all need him. Yangcheng will be managed by Nanchun. At least until everything is settled, it's best not to touch him."
Bai Yishui's face darkened, but he did not refute him.
After Bai Song left, Bai Yishui asked Bai Shan, "Is everything arranged in Yangcheng?"
Bai Shan nodded: "It's arranged."
"Tell them to be careful over there and never reveal their true identity. He is still useful for now, so just take it slow." Bai Yishui warned again and again.
"Yes, little one understands."
Bai Yishui felt a little worried.
After all, the person is not under his nose, and although Nan Chun looks simple, he is actually very cunning and good at disguising himself.
