Zhang Feng's eyes widened as he subconsciously said, "The Yang Consortium is really ruthless this time."
Wang Xi nodded and returned the deed to Zhang Feng. "You got a great bargain this time. The Yang family has also invested a lot."
Zhang Feng couldn't help but smile bitterly. It was fine if he didn't get a bargain, but he still owed the Yang family a favor. It seemed like he had benefited, but in fact, the Yang family had benefited. He had to admit that these three old men were really smart.
Seeing that he didn't want a free house, they forcibly lowered the price of a house by 2,000 strings of coins.
How ruthless.
However, this also showed that the conflict between the Yang family and the seven families couldn't be resolved. He needed to break it himself.
He said with a heavy expression, "I owe the Yang family a favor this time. I don't know how to repay it next time."
Wang Xi smiled faintly. "Nephew, don't worry. That old man Yang Gang just wants to bet on you. As long as you can suppress the seven families, not only will you not have to repay this favor, but there might also be a lot of benefits in the future."
Zhang Feng nodded. "These three leaders aren't simple people. Each one is more scheming than the other. They gave me these houses because they want to build a good relationship with me. Secondly, if I suppress the seven families in the future, they can get some benefits from it. It's killing two birds with one stone."
Wang Xi stroked his beard and smiled. "Nephew, don't blame those three old men. They are also thinking about the development of the Yang family. After all, they have been suppressed by the seven families for many years. They have long been cautious."
Zhang Feng didn't understand, but he didn't like the way they forced favors.
It felt like they were forcing people to buy.
He smiled faintly. "Uncle, don't worry. I understand. If they perform well in the future, it's not impossible to give them some benefits."
Wang Xi nodded slightly and stroked his beard with satisfaction.
He was still very satisfied with this nephew's performance. He was neither servile nor overbearing, just like a great master.
He just didn't know how things would develop in the future.
Just as he was thinking, the sound of a horse came from outside the window. The carriage had stopped.
Zhang Feng helped Wang Xi down the carriage and cupped his hands. "Uncle, I won't be going in. There are still many things to deal with at home."
Wang Xi could understand. He clasped his hands behind his back and said, "Go back and get busy. However, you must always be on guard against the people of the seven families."
Zhang Feng cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your reminder, uncle. I will remember it."
With that, he turned around and returned to the carriage.
The carriage set off once again, rushing towards the mansion.
Zhang Feng touched the contract in his hand. He felt that the day had passed very quickly.
First, he met Uncle Wang. Uncle Wang treated him like a nephew, as if they were family. He even felt like he had returned to Chang 'an.
This was because Uncle Wang gave him the feeling of an old Elementary Scholar. He was like an old Elementary Scholar who cared about him.
Later on, he went to the Yang Clan. Although those three guys were a little scheming, they were still good people. It was just that they had a different stance from the seven families. If there was a chance in the future, he would help them.
Just as he was thinking, the carriage suddenly shook violently, just like when a carriage crashed in his previous life.
Zhang Feng was shocked. Could it be that he had hit someone?
He put his hand on the side of the carriage and hurriedly asked, "Baoqing, what happened outside?"
"Feng 'zi, there's a carriage in front of us." Yuchi Baoqing's voice came from outside.
Hearing this, Zhang Feng's earlier excitement completely disappeared. He shouted, "How the f * ck are you driving a carriage?"
As soon as he said that, the carriage stopped shaking.
He hurriedly got out of the carriage and saw that there was another carriage in front of him. This carriage was made of high-quality wood and emitted a delicate fragrance. There were also many beaded curtains hanging on it. It was obvious that this was the carriage of a young lady from a wealthy family.
His guess was right. In less than a moment, a female voice came from the carriage in front. "How are you driving a carriage? Why is it shaking? "
As soon as the voice fell, a woman came out. She had a long bun with a jade hairpin on the top of her head. Her hair fell naturally on both sides. She wore a light blue gauze dress with gold thread and a pair of embroidered shoes. Together with her high nose bridge and small cherry lips, she looked like a fairy who had descended to the mortal world.
At this moment, she also noticed Zhang Feng. She blushed and turned to look at the servant driving the carriage. "Little Zhao, how are you driving?"
The servant called Little Zhao had a bitter expression and hurriedly cupped his hands. "Miss, this wasn't done by me. It was the carriage opposite …"
As he spoke, he pointed at Yuchi Baoqing, indicating that this fellow was the one who did it.
When the woman saw this, she put her hands on her hips and looked at Yuchi Baoqing angrily. "You're the one who crashed into my carriage? Which family are you from? How dare you. "
Seeing this, Zhang Feng finally understood.
The two carriages had collided.
It seemed that it was his family's fault. He hurriedly cupped his hands and said to the woman, "Miss, please forgive me. It's my fault for disciplining him."
Seeing that someone had admitted defeat, the woman's arrogance seemed to have increased. She pouted. "Hmph, so it was you who did it. Tell me, how are you going to compensate me?"
