Chapter 44: Promotion to the Fourth Grade of Emperor (1)

"The moon is melting in the pear blossom courtyard, and the willow catkins pond is faintly breeze."

At this time, a horizontal plaque with golden characters was hung on Xiao Yan's courtyard gate, with two big characters "Xiao Mansion" written on it. The characters are like flowing clouds and flowing water, and are as sharp as a dragon, with extraordinary momentum.

As soon as everyone arrived above Xiao’s mansion, Langtian was shocked by the scale of Xiao Yan’s residence and praised him.

"Brother Xiao is such a big deal." Lang Tian sighed from his heart.

"I am ashamed of this. This is a gift from the Shang Alliance." Xiao Yan answered truthfully, but he was a little confused about the plaque and didn't see it when it came out.

Zhen Ni shook her waist lightly, and saw Xiao Yan confused, she spoke with a little anger: "You know you are busy, and you don't even know the name of your residence. I arranged for someone to hire the best calligrapher to write inscriptions and drove it out overnight. I know you don't like high-profile, so it's a little simpler. Do you think you're satisfied?"

As a capable general of the Commercial Alliance, he could not escape Zhen Ni's eyes such subtle things. Xiao Yan nodded with satisfaction and whispered: "Thank you for your hard work."

With this word, no matter how hard he worked, Jenny Zhen’s smile bloomed, like a flower blooming, so bright that even the sun in the sky was dim. Everyone was stunned.

Qing Muer felt a little unhappy, but he had to admit that Zhen Ni's natural charm and coolness really had a unique charm.

"Everyone go down." Xiao Yan looked at Qing Mu'er with an unhappy expression and quickly changed the subject and took the lead in leading everyone down.

When they entered the middle hall, everyone sat down accordingly and served fragrant tea. Zhen Ni immediately arranged a banquet to entertain her. Everything was orderly and generous.

"Brother Xiao, you are so lucky. It's much easier with the help of the merchant alliance." Lang Tian praised repeatedly.

Xiao Yan smiled and nodded when he heard this. Indeed, Xiao Yan is not suitable for these internal affairs at all. Without Zhen Ni's helper, Xiao Yan would definitely be overwhelmed and at a loss. Xiao Yan is deeply grateful to Zhen Ni.

Qing Muer snorted slightly and said goodbye to her little face. Qing Haoran looked helpless. Everyone guessed something in their hearts, and looked at each other with a smile in their eyes. Xiao Yan looked innocent.

"The banquet is ready, so why don't you go to dinner?" Zhen Ni cleverly gave up the topic.

The banquet is set around the fountain, with the quiet spring singing and the fragrance of flowers and birds singing, showing Zhen Ni's careful arrangement everywhere.

The dishes are rich, with a bright red menu, tied with golden silk thread. The dishes include crystal shrimp, jade beads, large black ginseng, raw lotus fragrant duck, crab noodles, white jade, rare abalone crisps, steamed yellow croaker in snow bamboo shoots, fresh fruits, etc.

"Xiao took this banquet to welcome everyone. From now on, Xiao's house will be everyone's home, and everyone's business will be my Xiao Yan's business." Xiao Yan was full of passion and raised his glass to greet everyone.

Qing Haoran nodded repeatedly, and admired this brother more and more. Xiao Yan's true expression of words is more clever than any skill in winning over people's hearts. This is true nature.

Le Shaolong and others felt infinitely moved when they heard this. Everyone came from the fighter, and they had been ups and downs all the way. There were many forces following him, but no one could truly regard himself as a relative and friend. With Xiao Yan, these barriers seemed to be eliminated.

Langtian felt a warm heart, and the depression that had been suppressed for many years seemed to be wiped out. Here, he finally felt a kind of warmth called home. Xiao Yan's kindness and kindness to him made him deeply feel the long-lost happiness. Although men don't cry easily, recalling the ups and downs of hundreds of years, Langtian's eyes were still hazy.

"Come on, Brother Xiao, I'll give you a glass." Thousands of words turned into a glass of wine, and Langtian raised his glass.

"Young Master, we respect you." Le Shaolong took the lead, Xiao Zhan and others stood up one after another.

"Everyone should call me Xiao Yan." Xiao Yan was a little shy.

Looking at Xiao Yan's blushing look, Zhen Ni felt very cute, her smile was full of smiles, and her jade face was a little bit of alcohol-like. Her charm was so charming that she was drunk.

"I have a suggestion. We are under the command of the young master, and the young master is the future of the Xiao clan. What is worse than what we call Young Master Xiao in the future?" Le Shaolong suggested.

Langtian, Xiao Zhan and others nodded in agreement.

Xiao Yan waved his hands repeatedly. He originally wanted to regard the team as a friend more than his subordinates, and this title always made him feel arrogant, which was something that Xiao Yan didn't like by nature.

Everyone was arguing, and it was a housework, so Qing Haoran was not convenient to interrupt. He pulled Qing Muer to drink beside him, so he did not let Qing Muer cause trouble.

"It's better to do this," Zhen Ni said, "How about we remove the word "Young Master Xiao?"

"Young Master Xiao, Young Master Xiao." This is good, and Le Shaolong's eyes lit up.

Xiao Yan also felt that it was much more pleasant to hear, so he nodded slightly.

"Brother, with Zhen Ni's help, it's really like a tiger's wings." Even Qing Haoran could not help but praise her. She glanced at Qing Mu'er at the corner of her eyes and sighed slightly.

Although Xiao Shao, although the difference is only one word, the meaning is completely different. It removes one word, removes the gap between master and servant, and removes the high point. The difference of one word brings Xiao Yan closer to the harmony between the entire team, which is really a masterpiece.

As if feeling Qing Haoran's gaze, Zhen Ni looked back and smiled gracefully.

Qing Haoran himself had to admit that if there was no Qing Muer relationship, he would have a higher evaluation of Zhen Ni.

"Come on, Demon King, Young Master Xiao, let's raise your glass to celebrate." Zhen Ni took the opportunity and made the final decision, blocking Xiao Yan's chance to repent in the future.

At the banquet, the man raised his glass and drank wildly, and the woman sipped it lightly. The wine glass was fragrant, and the left was adding wine, and the right was talking about drinking less. The joyful atmosphere completely connected everyone's emotions. What is really intoxicating is that besides the sweet and mellow things in the cup, the most important thing is love and friendship, and the laughter that spreads from affection to the table. Smiling eyes, red face, flying words, whirling wine... and using nectar, jade liquid, recalling the years like water and looking forward to a bright future.

After three rounds of wine, Qing Muer was already slightly drunk. The words "Little liar, I'll toast to you" made everyone amuse themselves. The joy was filled with warmth. Green leaves disappeared and a crystal clear moon hung high under the canvas of the starry sky, tender as water.

Everyone drank until the morning light came, and they refused to let go of the mat. The warmth of a few rays of light and the coolness of the night that was about to disappear, making people feel a sweet tiredness.

......

When he returned to his residence, Xiao Yan breathed a long sigh. He was very grateful for the banquet. He heard everyone's voice and brought everyone's hearts closer.

After taking a short rest, Xiao Yan calmed down and began to think about the next step.
