Seeing this situation, the Ye family head quickly stopped their open and secret struggles and said helplessly,”Everyone, don’t look at how Lord Xu is staying in my residence. Actually, it’s all because of Ye Zi. I don’t know what happened today, so don’t ask me.”
It had to be said that these people were as smart as monkeys. Even their tone of voice could be analyzed for a while.
Just like what the Ye family head said just now, it seemed like he was explaining to everyone, but he also brought out Ye Zi De as a warning to everyone present.
She just wanted to let the other families know that she was very close to Xu Bai now, so everyone had to give her some face in the future.
How could the people around her not understand what she meant?
They hurriedly cupped their hands to express some flattery. Some even wanted to cooperate.
Those families usually looked down on the Ye family. Although the Ye family was also a prominent family here, they had some problems with their methods. With Xu Bail s return, more and more people were working with them.
Xu Bai hadn’t arrived yet, so they started chatting with each other.
In addition to the beginning of the fight, there was a lot of tension in the back. No one wanted to lose their impression at this time. After all, they were going to see Xu Bai soon.
After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Xu Bai slowly walked out and went to the living room.
Seeing Xu Bai walk in, the family heads slowly turned their heads and looked at Xu Bai.
They saw clearly that Xu Bai was holding a stack of paper. Although it didn’t look very thick, there were still a few pages. This situation made them very puzzled. They didn’t know what would happen next.
“Sorry for the long wait. I was preparing these things when I came, so I was a little late. I didn’t make everyone wait too long, right?”Xu Bai waved the paper in his hand and smiled.
He looked very amiable. Compared with the fierce god on the river last night, Xu Bai looked like a civilized man at this moment. He didn’t have the shadow of last night at all, which made people dumbfounded.
This was not an illusion, so they quickly replied that it was not long at all.
Xu Bai found a seat and sat down. Then, he smiled and looked at the Ye family head.””Divide these materials into a portion, and the number of each material is also marked on it.’
The paper recorded the materials he needed to make. Not only did it have the names of the materials, but it also had the quantity he needed. This was what he had communicated with Ye Zi overnight.
Including which family was suitable for making which materials, he asked them one by one and marked them.
Although the Ye family head was confused, he still followed Xu Bai’s method and gave everyone a card.
After everything was done, Xu Bai slowly said…
“Everyone, take a closer look. I hope that you can gather all these things within three days and send them to the Ye family.”
When the family heads heard this, they lowered their heads in unison and looked at the contents recorded on their fingers. After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, they looked up in surprise when they finished reading.
“Lord Xu, do you want all these things?”A clan head asked in surprise.
Although the other family heads did not speak, their expressions were the same as this family head. They were all very surprised.
They couldn’t be blamed for being surprised. The materials on the list didn’t look expensive, but there were so many of them that it made their scalps go numb.
They didn’t know what it was used for, so they didn’t ask about it. They shouldn’t ask. If they did, they would get burned.
“We have to find all of them. No one can be left behind. I’ll leave this matter to you. I’ll rest assured.”Xu Bai took a sip of tea and said slowly.
Although his tone was very slow, his words were absolute. He meant that he had to do this for him. If he did it well, he would be rewarded. If he did not do it well, it would depend on what happened next.
Since he had a deal with the Emperor, the Emperor would definitely reward those who helped him along the way. This was without a doubt, so Xu Bai could make a bold promise without worry.
After Xu Bai said this, all the family heads present fell silent. After about ten breaths, one of the family heads stood up and cupped his fists at Xu Bai.
“Lord Xu, don’t worry. I’ll definitely do what you said. If there’s a missing material, you can hold me accountable.”
With him taking the lead, all the family heads present cupped their fists and agreed.
Xu Bai nodded and put down the teacup in his hand.”Everyone, do as I say. I said within three days, the sooner the better.”
The clan heads hurriedly nodded in agreement. They did not stay here and left as soon as possible.
These things were not expensive, but there were a lot of them, so it would take time to gather them.
“Lord Xu, you are…” Ye Family Head hesitated.
Xu Bai glanced at them indifferently and said,””Ask what you should ask, and don’t know what you shouldn’t know. The less you know, the better.”
When the Ye family head heard this, he hurriedly responded a few times before leaving.
“Let’s go back and continue reading.”Xu Bai stood up and returned to his room with Ye Zi accompanying him..
