The Peerless Beauty Stuck With Me

Chapter 1397 - 1396: Joining the Business Alliance

Family Head Liu hurriedly stopped.Tang Rao had helped so much, how could he not express any gratitude?

As the saying goes, a life-saving grace is greater than the heavens, and although this help wasn't as grand, the gratitude owed to Tang Rao, Tang Rao might not care, but he couldn't forget.

"Our Business Alliance may not be too large, but it's got a good reputation here, wouldn't you say? If the Kao Shan Sect doesn't mind, why not join our Business Alliance? I know you might not be fond of this business model, but the resources within are richer than anywhere else. Moreover, only those who join the Business Alliance are qualified to do business on the Main Island."

Family Head Liu laid out the conditions for joining the Business Alliance to Tang Rao, afraid Tang Rao wouldn't be tempted even after he finished.

"Our Kao Shan Sect doesn't do business, just a small Kao Shan Shop without much to sell, what would I do here?"

Tang Rao cast his bait, not finding anything that moved him, wondering why he should enter the Business Alliance. To become a dispute mediator?

"The Kao Shan Shop is enough, as long as there's a shop it's fine. Before the Kao Shan Shop, our Business Alliance had very strict membership conditions, but given the Kao Shan Shop has shown kindness to our Business Alliance people, if you hadn't exposed the An Family in advance, who knows how long our Business Alliance could have held on? Maybe we'd already have internal disputes by now, right?"

Tang Rao couldn't deny this; An Yun wasn't someone who would trust people lightly, not to mention he wouldn't believe in all these events, thinking the Business Alliance folks would trust him.

The An Family would only have two choices: withdraw from the Business Alliance, or use military suppression to fully take over the Business Alliance. Either way, there would be a bloody battle between the Business Alliance and the An Family. Tang Rao's appearance made the An Family wary, and now, with Family Head Liu stirring things up in the Business Alliance, letting them know what kind of entity the An Family really is, when the An Family is isolated and unsupported, who would they dare to attack? Surely the An Family couldn't take on the entire Business Alliance, right?

"I'm... You know? The kind of person who does good deeds without leaving a name. Let me be honest with you, I don't ask for any reward from you, I just hope you'll afford me some face, allowing me to develop our Kao Shan Sect, and not get involved in Business Alliance matters, because I've finally found a peaceful opportunity."

The thing Tang Rao least wanted was to resolve disputes, resolving so many made him feel he had no more value than that.

"I can guarantee this, the relationship between the Business Alliance and the An Family will be resolved before you join the Business Alliance."

Family Head Liu expended quite a bit of effort trying to convince Tang Rao to join.

"If it doesn't involve our Kao Shan Sect, I could consider giving some face and joining; but if it pulls in our Kao Shan Sect, I'm sorry, even if the Business Alliance promises me any amount of Purple Crystal, I won't do it."

Tang Rao may be in need of funds, but he wouldn't invite trouble for money.

"So you're agreeing to join our Business Alliance, right?"

Family Head Liu excitedly stood up from the lawn, 'deeply moved' as he shook Tang Rao's hand and asked.

"Before you grabbed my hand, I was still considering, but I'm the kind of person who really fears being held by a man's hand, I think I need more time to consider."

Afraid of being held by a man's hand?

Family Head Liu held Tang Rao's hand, which was immediately thrown off by Tang Rao.

"Sorry, well, I was just excited in the moment, no other intention, just join our Business Alliance? You see, every year so many people are desperately trying to get in, with no way. It shows how strong the relationship inside the Business Alliance is."

Guaranteeing you won't buy losses or be deceived after joining, and becoming part of the Business Alliance is something to be immensely proud of.

"You say the benefits are so good, I can reluctantly agree with you, as long as you don't make me work for you, joining to take a look isn't impossible."

What Tang Rao is interested in is not joining the Business Alliance, but finding ways to look at the Central Island.

The Divine Realm is divided into Tianzhou and five islands, bearing things similar to the Land of Immortals, except with fewer places than the Land of Immortals.

Tingzhou is where Tang Rao currently resides, but as for the southeastern islands, he hasn't been to any nor has he any desire to go, while the Central Island, the richest of all islands, still greatly fascinates Tang Rao.

"I'll go do it now. Tang Rao brother, where's your residence in the Southern City? When we get the chance, let's all come visit you."

Southern City?

Tang Rao had been to the Southern City a handful of times, aside from the opportunity the old man gave him to compete for a place in the Southern City, up until now, he still didn't have the qualifications to find a residence there. First, there wasn't a need, second, even if he went to Southern City, he'd just hang a name, living in Zijing City is hundreds of times more comfortable than in Southern City.

"I only participated in the Southern City occupancy registration; I haven't received a response for entering the competition yet, no rush, you want to see me, you can come to Zijing City, why bother with the hassle of the Southern City?"

Speaking of which, people typically have residences in the Southern City, and Tang Rao doesn't even have the qualification to stay there for a night, truly embarrassing.

"I thought Tang Rao brother lived in Southern City, but all sorts of bizarre people live there, not going is better!"

Family Head Liu really knows how to comfort people, but from his words, Tang Rao felt much better.

"Family Head Liu, my Zijing City is as good as the Southern City's accommodations, once the time comes, let's gather properly. I'll treat you to something you've never had before, we'll celebrate and rejoice."

Tang Rao had said as much, Family Head Liu awkwardly agreed, promising Tang Rao that someone would come to handle the paperwork, then he informed Tang Rao he had to return to the Business Alliance to reveal the truth to the brothers, urging them to resist the An Family. A heavy duty lies ahead, he needs time to first resolve things.

"Family Head Liu, you're not bad, maybe we can cooperate in the long term."

Family Head Liu didn't know what Tang Rao meant by that. The business he's in and the business Tang Rao's in aren't the same, what good is their cooperation?

However, good manners told Family Head Liu that if Tang Rao said this, there must be intention behind it. His confidence in saying this implies there must be benefits promised to Family Head Liu.

"Alright, I'll wait for Tang Rao brother's good news then."

As Family Head Liu left, Tang Rao looked at the scenery on the lawn for a while, then brushed off the dust and dashed off to another Zhang Family house.

Tang Rao was a conscientious person. Zhang Yishan and Song Xiaoxiao, a loving couple, ultimately couldn't be together due to family reasons. Watching this made Tang Rao feel regretful; he wondered if he could do something to help in this situation.
