A Risky Move
One had to know how powerful that sect was, why would they be interested in a girl from a normal noble house? Plus, his granddaughter was still in her infancy, and he couldn't see any talent or potential in her at all. Their actions were a little strange!
However, no matter what, it was a good thing. No matter what the other party's motive was, Old Man Chen naturally agreed to this matter. In the following period of time, the Chen family had indeed established a very stable position in the aristocratic family because of this marriage alliance!
But it had been so many years, and they never contacted him again, not even through letters. This made Old Chen a little disappointed- did they regret it?
But, whether or not they regretted it, Old Chen didn't dare go and question them. After all, the difference between a noble house and an ancient sect wasn't just a little bit, it was like the difference between an ant and an elephant!
Although he was a little nervous, Old Chen still looked like he had everything under control. Whether or not the ancient sects were in contact with House Chen, only Old Chen himself knew. Others didn't see it, but that didn't mean it didn't happen. As long as Old Chen didn't reveal any flaws, others would have to believe it.
"Jing Jing's right- the Chen marriage, you guys were still young back then, but us older people all know about it. Why didn't the head of House Yu touch House Chen all these years? It's also because of this! " Zhenhu spoke up. "House Yu suspects this as well, but the marriage was real, so we'd rather believe it. If they really did offend the ancient sects, not just House Yu, but even the hidden House Yu behind them wouldn't be a match for the ancient sects!"
Liu Tianyi and Liu Tianli nodded, sighing helplessly. It seemed that House Liu's title as a noble house was already set in stone?
"Damn it, if it weren't for House Song's Lingshan breaking through to Golden class late phase peak, House Song would've been one of the targets this time as well! But she broke through, and even got married to House Yu!" Tianli stomped his feet, not satisfied.
"Jing Jing, what do you mean by Lin Yi?" Liu Tianyi was a bit more mature than Tianli. He knew that his previous ideas weren't going to work, so he turned his attention to his niece.
"Uncle, Dad, it's actually very simple." Liu Jinghan smiled faintly and asked, "We should find the reason from the root of the matter. Why did the Kang family become an aristocratic family?"
"Isn't it because of the Wu and Xiao family's support?" Tianli said.
"Dad, the support from House Xiao and House Wu is just a facade. If House Kang doesn't have the capital and power to become a noble house, then even House Yu wouldn't be able to make the decision to let them become a noble house, right?" Liu Jinghan shook her head and said, "What the Kang family relies on is nothing more than some Jinchuang Medicine, the special edition of Jinchuang Medicine, Skin Beautifying Jinchuang Medicine, and other magical medicines. But Lin Yi has all of these! He even has the Pill of Life Extension and Toxin Cleansing that's even more powerful than them! I'm thinking that if we can work with Lin Yi and let our House Liu become Lin Yi's sole distributor, then we'll be able to control the sales of these magical medicines! If they want to buy the medicine, they'll have to go through us. That way, our position will naturally rise! "
"Hmm … You're right, but we're willing to become Lin Yi's distributor, but Lin Yi might not be willing, right? Whoever becomes the distributor gets rich … House Yu wanted to do it too, but they were rejected … "Tianli said, troubled.
"Dad, there are two sides to everything. A distributor can make money, but it can also make no money! We, House Liu, can be a distributor that doesn't make money! We'll hand over all the profits we get from the distributor, and we'll bear the operating costs ourselves! " Liu Jinghan said. "Plus, we won't make any decisions on the distributor, we'll let Lin Yi make all the decisions!"
A strange light flashed in Liu Tianyi's eyes- he didn't think that his niece would come up with such an idea! This way, House Liu would be a free laborer, and they wouldn't get any power or profits. Instead, they'd have to sacrifice a lot of money and manpower! On the surface, it looked like House Liu was losing a lot, but in reality, it was a name that they'd earned. They'd also built a good relationship with Lin Yi, and if House Liu had any problems in the future, they'd be able to find Lin Yi!
Zhenhu nodded approving- his granddaughter's ideas were always so unexpected! Positioning the entire House Liu as Lin Yi's' follower 'was a bit bold, but if they succeeded, the results would be unimaginable!
Zhenhu had long since noticed that Lin Yi wasn't a normal person, and now that he'd caused one death and two injuries in House Yu and Xiao family, it only showed how powerful Lin Yi was!
House Liu, on the other hand, was looking for a breakthrough and change- if they were to be Lin Yi's' follower ', it wouldn't be a good way out! It might seem like lowering their status, but in front of the hidden House Yu, weren't House Yu still the follower? Besides, wasn't the Xiao family the hidden House Pi's follower as well?
And so, the follower's prestige depended entirely on the boss's strength. If Lin Yi was someone who didn't even put the hidden houses in his eyes, then House Liu would be a noble house that was above House Yu and Xiao family!
Of course, this was all based on guessing and gambling- no one knew if Lin Yi had a bigger power backing him, and no one knew if Lin Yi would be able to go further in the future!
Tianli understood his daughter's words as well, but he fell into deep thought. After a while, he spoke, "Jing Jing, that Lin Yi looks strong, but he's still House Yu's enemy. Us House Liu willingly lowering our status means that we're walking into House Yu's territory. If Lin Yi can take care of House Yu, then that's fine, but what if he can't? I heard that his enemy, Jin Wudi, in order to avenge his disciple Ma Zhu- he's already applied to the hidden house council to get revenge on Lin Yi! He's an Earth class! He's invincible! I'm afraid that before we can even celebrate, Lin Yi will be killed by Jin Wudi! "
