Chapter 137 Allocation! The Wind Rises!

"Brother Zhou, once this matter with the Chu family is over, you'll have half of the share in Tiemu Manor."

On a watchtower within Tiemu Village.

Zhou Zhengtang stood at the edge of the watchtower, looking down at the vast black forest formed by the growth of black ironwood.

He also turned his head and looked at Su Hao sitting behind him.

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the other two Ren family guards also slightly hardened.

They all looked at Su Hao with some curiosity.

They had heard before that Zhou Zhengtang had a close brother from the same school, and the two often addressed each other as brothers.

Looking back now, it's clear that the two were indeed very close!

Even an industry like Tiemuzhuang was given away by Zhou Zhengtang without hesitation!

There was no ambiguity whatsoever, which shows how much the other party values ​​Su Hao!

"Brother Zhou, you're joking. This was fought and won by many brothers with their blood and sweat. How could I possibly deserve half of it?"

Su Hao shook his head and smiled, also looking down at the black forest.

Although Zhou Zhengtang spoke very sincerely, it seemed he wasn't joking.

But... he couldn't accept it!

First, Tiemu Village was taken back with the combined efforts of the Zhou and Ren families; his contribution in the arena match was merely his duty.

Secondly, I owe Zhou Zhengtang a lot of favors. Now that things have calmed down a bit, how can I expect to get any more benefits?

Even if Zhou Zhengtang didn't care about this, the rest of the Zhou family would still disagree.

"Are you afraid of retaliation from the Chu family?"

Zhou Zhengtang frowned and asked.

"Since I promised to do it, I will definitely eliminate any potential problems!"

"No, Brother Zhou, you're too kind. I can't accept this benefit because I've already received what I deserve," Su Hao continued to refuse.

"Come on! You have no idea how much money this can make in a month. Just take my advice this time!"

Zhou Zhengtang walked over and patted Su Hao on the shoulder, "As a reward for merit, you definitely deserve a share of this! Moreover, without you, we would have lost the arena competition. Not to mention Ironwood Manor, even Green Ganoderma Valley would have to share the benefits. It's because of your intervention that we have such advantages!"

"I'm afraid this matter might cause dissatisfaction among others."

Su Hao felt somewhat helpless.

He was merely holding a nominal position within the Zhou family.

Ultimately, there was no difference in status between them and other members of the guard team.

The only difference was that she had a better relationship with Zhou Zhengtang, and the two were closer.

Because the Zhou family received huge benefits from a single arena match, some people may harbor resentment.

"I knew that was what you were worried about. Don't worry! Only you know the price, and your skills are definitely worth it!"

Zhou Zhengtang laughed.

Su Hao could only nod helplessly at this.

However, I didn't really care about it.

After all, the matter of Tiemu Village has only just begun, and who knows what methods the Chu family will use to seize it in the future.

They had witnessed firsthand the ruthlessness of the Chu family.

Therefore, it's too early to say anything until the Chu family is destroyed!

……

Yanshan City, inner city, the wind fills the tower.

As one of the most famous top restaurants in the entire inner city, Fengmanlou's grandeur is as great as its reputation.

The entire structure is made of Phoebe zhennan wood that is hundreds of years old, combined with various precious jade stones. Under the sunlight, it radiates a dazzling golden luster.

Moreover, the customers who can come and go here are almost all prominent figures in Yanshan City.

Therefore, the quality of customers here is more important than the quantity.

A white carriage sped towards us from the other side of the city road.

The carriage came to a stop with a whoosh, and several young men dressed in brocade robes stepped out.

All of them were outstanding in appearance and handsome. After getting off the car, they headed into Fengmanlou.

They chatted and laughed all the way, occasionally uttering elegant phrases, which made them appear quite dashing.

In addition, all of them walked with steady steps and exuded an aura, clearly indicating that they were all martial arts practitioners!

As the group entered the building, a short while later, an elderly man dressed in a purple robe alighted from a carriage that had been parked by the roadside. He was then helped by several servants and walked towards Fengmanlou.

"It's Master Xu!"

Several doormen at the entrance of Fengmanlou went up to greet the elderly man in fine clothes as he approached.

This Master Xu is a regular and VIP at Fengmanlou, although no one knows his exact identity or occupation.

However, anyone who could frequently enter and leave this place was unlikely to be of a simple background. Therefore, the doormen were always very friendly and enthusiastic when they encountered these regular VIPs.

Because once these people are served well, the tips they casually give are enough to cover their wages for dozens of days.

"Hehe! Ah Fu, give each of them some reward money."

The old man in purple robes looked at the group of people who were enthusiastically surrounding him.

A satisfied smile appeared on his face, as if he thoroughly enjoyed the feeling of being surrounded and adored.

He then gave instructions to a middle-aged man beside him.

"Yes, sir!"

The man with a somewhat simple and honest face nodded slightly, then took out a money bag from his pocket and took out silver to reward everyone.

Seeing that Master Xu was still very generous, the doormen bowed and thanked him profusely, then led the old man inside.

"My old friends should all be in that private room, right?"

As Mr. Xu was helped up by several people, the smile on his face became even more amiable.

"Mr. Xu, they've been here for a while now, just waiting for you!"

A short-haired girl, about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a clear, melodious voice, quickly responded.

"Alright, alright, remember to bring me the finest Shaoxing wine and some Shaoxing rice wine. I want to treat these old friends well today!"

Master Xu gave instructions as he walked.

As he was led to the second floor, Mr. Xu looked around and finally settled on a private room with its door still open.

Inside, several handsome young men dressed in brocade robes were drinking and chatting merrily.

"Mr. Xu, they are also distinguished guests who have been renting this private room for a long time. It might be a bit too close to your room, and the noise might be a little bothersome. What do you think…?"

The doormen who were leading the way seemed to notice Master Xu's gaze, so they quickly explained.

"Hehe! It's alright, young people are full of vigor after all, a little excitement won't hurt..." Master Xu chuckled, waved his hand, then stopped at the door of the next private room. After pushing open the door, he had his servants stand guard at the door and went in himself.

"Haha, I almost didn't recognize Brother Liu in this outfit!"

As soon as the old man in purple robes entered the private room, several faint laughs rang out from inside.

At the same time, several pairs of eyes fell on him!

"There's no other way; I've learned a lot for this day! Among them is the art of disguise!"

The old man in purple robes smiled, and his voice, which had been aged, became deep and powerful!

He slammed his cane down and sat down with an air of authority.
