Chapter 194 Elder Ke Qing

Time passed quickly while Liu Xi was recovering from his injuries.

Three days passed in a flash.

During these three days, the Xiao family gradually took over many industries that originally belonged to the Galie and Oba families.

However, the Xiao family was not in a hurry to move into the mansions of the Galie and Oba families.

Inside the mansions of the two major families, there is naturally the family heritage that has enabled the two families to grow and prosper in Wutan City and stand firm for many years, such as fighting skills and martial arts passed down from generation to generation, as well as rare treasures, gold and silver jewelry, etc.

The Xiao family was naturally thinking about those things.

The reason why they are not taking any action now is that their Xiao family is now the only legal city law enforcement and management family in Wutan City.

At this critical juncture, what the Xiao family needs to do is to "maintain their reputation" and make the indigenous residents in Wutan City submit to them.

Therefore, you should not eat in an ugly manner.

Not all the people from the Gale and Oba families died. That night, only the living forces of the two families, namely the young and middle-aged members of the clans, and the servants they kept, were wiped out.

It is not difficult to imagine that there are still many clansmen and servants in the mansions of the two families. However, most of the members of the Galie and Oba families are undoubtedly old, weak and sick.

People tend to sympathize with the weak. Now, there are only the old, weak and sick people left in the Galie and Oba families, so they are naturally the weaker party.

If the Xiao family takes advantage of the situation to seize the mansions and assets of the two families now, they will inevitably be seen as a bad outsider in the eyes of hundreds of thousands of residents in Wutan City. This will be detrimental to the Xiao family's overall management of Wutan City in the future, and the family power will be difficult to take root.

Even though the Xiao family turned defeat into victory after being passively besieged by the two major families, there is nothing wrong with doing this to the enemy who took the initiative!
This is a case of bringing disaster upon oneself.

Even the royal family of the Gama Empire won’t say anything!
But the residents don't think so.

Everyone is xenophobic.

Even though the Gale and Oba families had a bad reputation, they were forces native to Wutan City and were inherently easy to be accepted by local residents.

But their Xiao family is different. They are outsiders. The same thing may not have much impact if the Galie and Oba families do it, but once the Xiao family does it, the good and kind image that they have established in front of the residents of Wutan City in the past ten years will collapse and they will be rejected.

In the long run, this is not worth it.

So, the Xiao family is waiting.

As for what are you waiting for?
The two major families are each left with only a group of old, weak, sick and disabled people, which is not proportional to the huge family foundation they still hold in their hands!
If this situation continues for a long time, it will inevitably attract the covetousness of others.

You must know that in the territory of Wutan City, there are many people who have been offended and forces suppressed by the Galie and Oba families in the past!
Those people will not miss the opportunity to settle scores and add insult to injury!

By then, will a group of old, weak, sick and disabled people without matching strength be able to protect the family's heritage?

This is obviously a no!
The ending of the two families being destroyed and people being killed seemed to be foreseeable.

At that time, their Xiao family will stand up as law enforcers with justification to punish those people and forces who completely destroyed the two families. In the end, nothing that belongs to their Xiao family will be lost!
You can get the greatest benefit without being a bad person.

This way, you can kill two birds with one stone, so why not do it?
It just takes some time to wait!
……

Walking out of the Xiao family's meeting and reception hall, Liu Xi looked at the piece of paper in his hand that was bordered with gold thread and had the special mark of the laws of the Gama Empire, and felt quite amused.

"Damn it! You have to make me sign this before they let me out!"

It was clearly written on the contract paper in his hand that the Xiao family would allocate 10% of the family's income in Wutan City every year to thank Liu Xi for his help that night, and as a reward for him as a guest elder of the Xiao family starting from today!

"God damn, guest elder, isn't this what many authors in their past lives like to do most, to let the protagonist of their book take up positions in certain forces in the book, so that it seems as if I am the protagonist of this world..."

Silently putting the contract paper into the ring, Liu Xi went straight back to his open-air villa, quickly packed up some things, and headed out of the Xiao family.

Today was the day he planned to return to the valley where Little Medical Fairy was.

He hired a carriage in the city and took him to the outskirts of the city.

In the carriage, he was still worrying about the fact that from today on, he would become a guest elder of the Xiao family.

To be honest, in the meeting hall of the Xiao family, he was forced to agree to become a guest elder of the Xiao family because of the enthusiasm of the Xiao family's top leaders and Xiao Yan's strong suggestion. He could not resist those people.

On the surface, it seems that he has gained a lot of benefits.

After the Xiao family completely took over all the quick-profit businesses in Wutan City, the annual revenue in Wutan City would more than double!
He doesn't have to manage anything, doesn't have to spend any money, and just sits back and collects money every year, which is pretty cool.

One tenth of the net profit should be at least several hundred thousand gold coins!

Over the years, that would be a considerable amount of extra income.

However, this also depends on what force the guest elder comes from!

In his previous life, he had read the original novel thoroughly, so how could he not know that after Xiao Yan went to Yunlan Sect to fulfill the three-year agreement, troubles belonging to the Xiao family began to come one after another? !
There should be less than two years left before Xiao Yan fulfilled his three-year agreement. In other words, the Xiao family can only stay in Wutan City for about two years at most. After almost being wiped out by the elders of the Yunlan Sect, they will leave Wutan City and, under Xiao Yan's arrangement, go to Shimo City located in the Tagor Desert.

As for the Xiao family's so-called "10% of the family's income in Wutan City will be allocated to him every year as a reward for becoming a guest elder of the Xiao family", if you really want to be picky, he can only receive this reward for two years at most!

"Fortunately, in about a month, I will go to Canaan College and start my reclusive life... Since I am not at the Xiao family, those troubles will not come to me, right?"

After getting off the carriage, Liu Xi found a remote dense forest on the outskirts of the city, entered the forest, used flying fighting skills in the forest, flapped his purple cloud wings, and soared into the sky.

High above the sky, he flew at the fastest speed in the direction of his memory. His clothes rustled and his hair crown was blown away by the whistling wind, causing some of his hair to flutter. In his right palm, he held the nine-cubic-meter ring that he had bought from the Mitre auction house and intended to give to Xiao Yixian.

There had never been a moment when he was so eager to return to the isolated valley as he was at this moment!
Returning like an arrow!

However, he didn't know when he started to regard the simple house in the valley that he and Xiao Yixiang expanded as his first home in this Douqi Continent.
