Chapter 1099 – Cooperation
"This … This is what we should do! We will take responsibility! " Xiao Ben was nervous, but he had to admit his wrongdoings. He only hoped that his attitude would be better, and House Pi would forgive him.
"If that's the case, then I won't waste any more words with you. However, Xiao Family isn't in a good situation right now. Even if you have to take responsibility, what will you take out?" Pi Zhishan looked at Xiao Ji and Xiao Ben, and said coldly, "The Xiao family right now, other than the lives of the two Misters, what else can they take out?"
"Little kid, you're too much! My Xiao family may be down and out, but it's not up to you to judge! My wife Gou Huli may have bumped into Uncle Pi, but what does that have to do with Xiao family? If you want to blame someone, you can always find a reason. Do whatever you want, I, Xiao Ji, am standing right here, what can you do to me? "Xiao Ji was a hot-tempered person, and when he heard Pi Zhishan's words, he panicked!
"Big Brother!" Xiao Ben was panicking. His big brother's temper was really bad!
But before Xiao Ben could say anything, there was a loud slap, and the next moment, half of Xiao Ji's face swelled up, and one of his teeth fell out. He couldn't speak, but neither Xiao Ji nor Xiao Ben saw if it was Pi Zhishan or Pi Zhihai who did it, or maybe they didn't even do anything …
Xiao Ji realized that although he was facing two young men, they were masters no weaker than Uncle Pi!
Xiao Ji was a little scared at the thought! Especially when he recalled the scene of Pi Zhihai smashing the stone lion at the entrance, he was even more frightened! He was a little impatient, but he wasn't an idiot! He understood the situation, and an awkward expression appeared on his face!
"I'm sorry, Young Masters Pi … I … I didn't think of what I said …" Xiao Ji covered his swollen face, and said embarrassedly. He was completely scared!
"This is a lesson," Pi Zhishan said faintly. Pi Zhishan said calmly. Against someone like Xiao Ji, they had to be scared of him. Otherwise, it would be hard to negotiate! Now that Xiao Ji had given in, Pi Zhishan didn't have to waste any more words. "Xiao Ji, you are a brute. I won't argue with you! But Xiao Ben, you're a smart man. Tell me, what else does the Xiao family have to compensate us? "
"This … I really didn't …" Although Xiao Ben didn't want to admit it, it was the truth. The Xiao family's downfall was right in front of him, so it was no wonder that Pi Zhishan said this.
"I really didn't expect the Xiao family to have fallen to such a state. They are still one of the aristocratic families, but now they don't look like a big family at all." Pi Zhishan frowned. He looked around the mansion and said, "I don't know if the family's decision was right or wrong. They actually chose you two useless people to work with …"
Cooperation? When Xiao Ji and Xiao Ben heard Pi Zhishan's seemingly unintentional words, they were shocked! Could it be that the hidden House Pi was here to cooperate with them? If the hidden House Pi was really here to cooperate with the Xiao family, then wouldn't the Xiao family have hope?
With that thought, Xiao Ben quickly asked, "Master Pi, you mean … You want to cooperate with the Xiao family?"
"This is just a preliminary intention. Whether we can cooperate or not depends on your performance," Pi Zhishan said faintly.
"Please speak, Master Pi!" Xiao Ben was very happy. As long as House Pi was willing to cooperate with him, then the Xiao family wouldn't fall to such a state. They might even become one of the best of the noble houses! So, no matter what, he had to make House Pi cooperate with him, no matter how much he had to pay!
"The relationship between House Yu and the hidden House Yu, I wonder if you know about it?" Pi Zhishan nodded, satisfied with Xiao Ben's response.
"Naturally, if it wasn't for the hidden House Yu supporting us, then House Yu wouldn't have become the number one noble house!" Xiao Ben's heart jumped. Could it be that the hidden House Pi wanted the Xiao family to become a noble house like House Yu? Xiao Ben was excited!
"If we support the hidden House Pi, what can you do for the Xiao family? In other words, how much profit can we get? "Pi Zhishan said the main point of this negotiation!
House Pi was indeed a hidden noble house, but according to the rules of the hidden noble house, they weren't allowed to interfere with the common world's business. In other words, other than focusing on training, they couldn't openly make money in the common world!
However, the hidden House Yu had used a roundabout method to directly control the common world's House Yu, turning them into their own tools! The common House Yu, on the other hand, used the hidden House Yu's power to become the head of the noble houses. The hidden House Yu, on the other hand, used the wealth that the common House Yu gave to them every year to grow bigger and bigger!
House Yu's situation was accidental, and other noble houses couldn't replicate it. After all, the hidden House Yu and the common House Yu were two different houses. They only got in touch later on. This kind of avoidance method wasn't something that others could learn!
They couldn't create a common branch, and so they could only watch as House Yu made money! The agreement wasn't just for show. If they pissed off the witnesses of the agreement, it wouldn't be a joke!
However, all these years, the witnesses of the agreement and the sky class masters had all disappeared, and this agreement wasn't as effective as it used to be. Recently, the hidden house Zhao had started to stir, and they had a bastard son, Zhao Qibing, who was making money in the common world!
Of course, no one dared to blatantly break the convention, but there was no problem with a roundabout way! House Yu, for example, had been making money for so many years, and nothing happened to them, right?
And so, the hidden House Zhao let Zhao Qibing make money in the common world, saying that Zhao Qibing was a bastard son of House Zhao, and that his bloodline wasn't pure, so he couldn't enter House Zhao's door! Of course, even if his bloodline wasn't pure, he was still House Zhao's son, so it was understandable that House Zhao gave him some help.
But everyone knew that Zhao Qibing's money in the common world was for the hidden House Zhao!
And so, with House Yu and House Zhao as precedents, the other noble houses couldn't sit still anymore. They all thought of ways and excuses to enter the common world to make money! These hidden houses, while strong in the Wulin world, didn't have much money!
