After signing his name and putting down his pen, Yue Lingchuan picked up the contract. Without waiting for Jia Musen to react, he walked towards Jia Jinyan's direction.
Just as Jia Musen was about to call out to him, he was suddenly pulled by Xiao Chen. When he turned around, he saw Xiao Chen giving him a look. He immediately understood that Xiao Chen must have helped him secretly. He could not help but nod at him gratefully.
Xiao Chen smiled slightly and turned to chase after Yue Lingchuan. Jia Musen hurriedly followed behind him and excitedly went to report to Jia Jinyan.
"Yo, isn't this Steward Yue? Why did you personally send the contract over? These small errands, they can just let the younger generation do it for them! "Jia Jinyan was a little surprised when he saw the figure walking over.
Did this Yue Lingchuan eat the wrong medicine? Normally, he had always been tyrannical in the Yue Clan. Other than the Yue Clan Master, he did not give face to anyone. He was also very strong when it came to external cooperation. He was especially good at "dragging", he could even drag people to madness.
Among the Jia Clan's people, other than Jia Yutou, Yue Lingchuan did not even look at them. But today, he actually helped Jia Musen to send the contract over. This really made Jia Jinyan's eyes pop out.
Yue Lingchuan walked to the table and gave a simple nod before placing the contract on the table. Jia Jinyan lowered his head to take a look and saw that it was the highest standard contract. He happily praised, "Mu Sen, not bad! This contract was completed beautifully! "
"I … this … actually …" Facing Jia Jinyan's praise, Jia Musen was a little hesitant. He had won this competition a little mysteriously, he did not know whether he should accept it or not.
"Actually, Clan Master, you still haven't noticed," Xiao Chen interrupted and pointed to the additional contract at the back. He smiled and said: "Look, Senior Yue not only signed the highest standard contract with Jia Musen, he also agreed to some additional contracts. Please take a look!"
"Additional contracts?" Jia Jinyan was startled. He lowered his head and looked at the contract carefully. Only then did he realize that behind the original contract, there was an additional contract. On it were Jia Musen and Yue Lingchuan's names.
After reading through the details of the contract, Jia Jinyan sucked in a breath of cold air. His face was first filled with disbelief before it turned into ecstasy. He put down the contract and shook Yue Lingchuan's hand, thanking him from the bottom of his heart. "Manager Yue, you're too kind! I didn't expect you to agree to these additional conditions! "
"Ah? This … "Yue Lingchuan was slightly startled as he recovered his wits. His eyes regained their clarity as he looked at Jia Jinyan hesitantly. What happened just now? Why is it that my brain seems to be out of control and I sign all the contracts as soon as I pick up the pen?
"In the past, Caretaker Yue's attitude towards our Jia Family was unclear. Now, it seems like it was all a test! Look at you, if you have any misgivings, just say it frankly! " Jia Jinyan patted Yue Lingchuan's shoulder heavily. His smile was like a blossoming flower, "However, through this contract, I can already feel the Yue Clan's sincerity in cooperating with us! We will definitely consider the long-term cooperation with the Yue Clan. Don't worry, since I am still the Clan Master, I will definitely do what I say. I will definitely not go back on my words. Otherwise, I will not have a good ending! "
"That …" Yue Lingchuan's face scrunched up. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Jia Jinyan had already said so much. Could it be that he had to go back on his words and become the person who would not have a good ending?
"Actually … Actually, it's nothing much. Our three great clans should help each other!" Yue Lingchuan took a deep breath and finally squeezed out a sentence from his throat with difficulty.
"Hahaha! Caretaker Yue is really straightforward! " Jia Jinyan laughed and said seriously, "When the competition ends, don't be in a hurry to leave! I will treat you to a few drinks tonight! Firstly, it is to thank you for your recognition of Jia Musen. Secondly, it is for the Jia and Yue Clan to have a better cooperation in the future. I hope that Caretaker Yue will do me the honor! There will be many opportunities for us to interact in the future! "
As long as he thought about the resources that the Yue Clan would provide the Jia Clan every year, Jia Jinyan felt as if he had drunk a glass of ice water on a hot day.
"Uh … Alright!" Yue Lingchuan didn't know what to say. He could only nod his head and return to his seat with a puzzled look on his face.
After sitting down in a daze, Yue Lingchuan tried his best to recall what had happened. However, he could only remember Xiao Chen handing him a contract. After that, he was in a daze. Only after Jia Jinyan shook his hand and spoke to him did he realize what had happened.
"That's not right … What is going on? Could it be that I have a split personality? "Yue Lingchuan frowned and thought hard.
On the other side, Jia Jinyan looked at Jia Musen with admiration. He patted his shoulder and said, "Mu Sen, you did well! Go and rest first. After the competition ends, I will announce the results! "
"En, thank you grandfather!" At this point, the contract was considered settled. Jia Musen smiled, turned around and walked to his resting place. However, he felt conflicted.
On one hand, he felt that Jia Jinyan, as his grandfather, was a bit snobbish. In the past, when he wasn't of much help to the clan, Jia Jinyan didn't care about him at all. Now that he had just improved a little, Jia Jinyan's attitude changed. It really made him feel bitterly disappointed.
However, on the other hand, from the perspective of a rational Clan Head, Jia Jinyan's attitude was understandable. After all, the Clan Head prioritized the clan's benefits and looked at the big picture. If he was too emotional, how could the Jia Clan become one of the top three clans in the martial arts world? It would be difficult for them to even survive. They might have already been swallowed up by other clans!
Although he was conflicted, Jia Musen had a strong point, which was that he was open-minded and optimistic. The conflicting emotions only existed for a while before disappearing like smoke. Jia Musen then thought of the "additional contract" that was full of suspicious points.
Seeing that there was no one nearby, Jia Musen asked doubtfully, "Xiao Chen, what kind of sorcery did you use just now? You actually made that old guy take the initiative to sign the contract. I thought that I would only get one point this time! "
"Hehe, this is a secret. I can't tell you for the time being!" Xiao Chen smiled mysteriously. "Moreover, I already said that I would help you. How could I just watch you sign the lowest contract and ignore it?"
In fact, the special ability of a cultivator was quite heaven-defying for ordinary cultivators. Moreover, it wasn't easy to explain. Therefore, Xiao Chen didn't intend to say it and chose to deliberately mystify things.
"Forget it if you don't want to say it. Anyway, I don't want to know. Isn't there a line in many movies: Knowing too much is not good for you! Only a dead man can keep a secret! "Jia Musen shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently.
