Chapter 264 Making Friends (12)
"This this,"
Seeing this scene, Yu Renlong was stunned, but he did not expect that Cui Zhoumu would kill his servants in public to apologize to Yu Guihai.
Not only him, but everyone around him was shocked.
The significance of this is extraordinary. Cui Zhoumu's doing this gave the Yu family plenty of face, but it didn't leave any face for himself. This gesture is equivalent to admitting that one is not as noble as the Yu family.
But how is that possible?
The Yu family is just a local snake in Yuqingzhou, and Cui Zhoumu is a member of the imperial court specially sent by Beicang Mansion. How could he make such a low profile?
No one else understood it, but Yu Guihai understood it.
What Cui Fenghu did actually represented the Yun family's attitude in Wangyue Mountain, which was to befriend him.
He's just a servant. If he can get his friendship, it's quite worth it.
However, Cui Fenghu's attitude today is very different from the previous days.
Yu Guihai even guessed that when Cui Fenghu came today, he did not have such a low profile at the beginning. It should be an equal gesture, and he would use both soft and hard tactics to let him join the Yun family.
The reason why he is like this now is probably because this person has seen his true cultivation level. As for the method used to see it, it's hard to say.
A trace of solemnity flashed in Yu Guihai's heart, but a hint of apology appeared on his face.
"I am truly ashamed of Zhou Mu for being like this." He said with a wry smile.
"Hey~~The Ninth Elder said something serious." Cui Fenghu waved his hands repeatedly.
The two chatted enthusiastically. Yu Guihai introduced his father to him, and then led him into the home and to the family living room, where they sat down separately for host and guest.
After sitting down, Cui Fenghu complimented Yu Guihai in various ways, and Yu Guihai also complimented each other on his business, but never got to the point.
However, Cui Fenghu came with a request after all and was at a disadvantage, so he had to speak first.
"Ninth Elder, in addition to apologizing, I also want to ask you something." Cui Fenghu asked with a solemn look on his face.
"Cui Zhoumu, please speak." Yu Guihai knew the topic was coming and said with a faint smile.
"That's right, before I came here, I was entrusted by the Yun Da Steward of Wangyue Mountain to bring a congratulatory gift to the elder to congratulate your family on your successful promotion to the Yu family branch."
"Steward Yun Da said that he couldn't come in person because of the long journey, so please don't mind the elders. It's just a congratulatory gift, it's not respectful, so please accept it."
A smile bloomed on Cui Fenghu's face. He reached out and took out a luxuriously decorated black wood sunflower from his arms. He opened it, revealing a spiritual grass with three flowers inside.
This spiritual grass has round leaves and three finger-sized flowers on the top, each showing red, yellow and green colors.
Yu Guihai looked very familiar. It was the gift from the Yun family in Wangyue Mountain that Li Qingshan had shown him, the three-color spiritual grass flower. Unexpectedly, Cui Fenghu would be placed in front of him again.
However, their meanings are quite different.
At that time, the Yun family had a high-handed attitude of giving alms, but now it is a low-profile friendship.
And all this is due to strength.
"The three-color flower of spiritual grass can allow those who cultivate immortality to break through the first level of Qi training stage, and can also increase the chance of warriors being promoted to the innate state. This is really precious. I can't accept it." Yu Guihai hurriedly declined.
"Hey~~Beicang Mansion can produce a peerless genius like you, which adds glory to the entire Beicang Mansion, and Wangyue Mountain is so proud. These three-color flowers are just a gift. Elders must not refuse." Cui Fenghu said with a smile. .
"Then I'd rather be respectful than obey my orders. Please help me, Mr. Zhou Mu, to thank Manager Yunda." After some negotiation, Yu Guihai had no choice but to accept the spiritual grass.
Cui Fenghu was very satisfied, and then said: "That's right. In previous years, Wangyue Mountain would have to strive for a genius like the elder. However, this year is different."
"How do you say this?" Yu Guihai pretended not to understand.
"Haha, this is also the third purpose of my visit today."
Cui Fenghu laughed, then straightened his face and said: "On the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, Yunmiao Mountain will open a large number of sects to accept disciples, and set up entrance examinations in the capital of the Loudang Kingdom and major cities. I came here specifically to inform the elders to participate in the examination. "
"Oh? This happened! Thank you, Mr. Zhou Mu, for informing me. I am very grateful."
Yu Guihai said in surprise.
He was very surprised. He originally thought that even though Cui Fenghu had become a good friend, he wanted to bribe him to join the Yun family.
But he didn't expect that the other party would specifically inform him to join Yunmiao Mountain to recruit disciples, without any mention of him joining the Yun family.
Cui Fenghu himself obviously had no right to do this, and he must have done so under the instruction of the Yun family of Wangyue Mountain.
But he didn't expect that the Yun family could achieve this level.
However, he thought for a moment and had some guesses in his mind.
A powerful force like the Yun family of Wangyue Mountain is definitely not a good person.
In all likelihood, they did this because they took a fancy to their own potential. He believed that he could successfully join Yunmiao Mountain and would be successful in his cultivation in the future, so he invested in himself in advance.
Even if his estimate was wrong and he failed to join Yunmiao Mountain, with this relationship, he would choose to join Wangyue Mountain and work for it in the next step.
If he could get it, and he would be a ninth-level monk in the Qi Refining Stage, everything he was doing now would be worth it.
After figuring out the joints, Yu Guihai felt at ease.
He did not object to the Yun family's overtures. Human nature was driven by profit, and no one was exempt from the vulgarity.
And he will embark on the path of cultivating immortals in the future, and his family will have to live in Beicang Prefecture. If the Yun family can take care of them, it will be much safer.
"Haha, elder, you are too polite. This is my duty. Before I came, the great steward Yun specifically asked me to do this. If you want to thank him, you should thank the great steward Yun." Cui Fenghu laughed.
After Cui Fenghu finished speaking, he did not stay for long and said goodbye.
Yu Renlong said to his son with some trepidation: "Hai'er, what does this Cui Zhoumu mean? Why is your father so uneasy in his heart?"
"Haha, don't worry, father. Cui Zhoumu came here to show goodwill, and he did not represent himself, but represented the overlord of Beicang Prefecture, the Wangyue Mountain Yun Family. You must have confidence in me, your son." Yu Guihai said with a smile.
"Is it related to what Cui Zhoumu said about Yunmiao Mountain accepting disciples?" Yu Renlong said after thinking for a while.
"Yes. Yunmiao Mountain is a great sect of immortal cultivation that is superior to the entire Great Sheng Nation. Both the royal family and the Wangyue Mountain Yun Family are just secular administrators sent by it. The Wangyue Mountain Yun Family is optimistic about my joining Yunmiao Mountain, so they are so friendly with me."
Yu Guihai answered and popularized the status of Yunmiao Mountain to his father.
Yu Renlong was shocked after hearing this, and looked at his son with a brilliant look, with a sense of complacency and pride.
