Chapter 944 - 944 800 Making a Grand Entrance
?Chapter 944: Chapter 800 Making a Grand Entrance Chapter 944: Chapter 800 Making a Grand Entrance Black Cloud Mountain, atop a certain peak.
The place was the nearest to the outside world, where a mountain fortress had been established, with hundreds of acres of cultivated mountain fields nearby.
The fields on the mountain were steep and barren, yielding little grain.
Within the fortress, numerous buildings had been meticulously constructed, with a shrine at the very center.
Xu Yunlang, who was a noble son from a prominent family in the outside world, tread cautiously here, daring not to even take a breath too deeply.
He entered a study where a middle-aged man, looking similar to him and busily writing, was inside.
“Father…”
Xu Yunlang greeted with a bow, “Today, I inspected Small Field Village, and the growth of the fields looked promising. Next year should bring a good harvest… The yearly accounts of Datong Cloth Manor in the city have been audited, earning a total of one thousand two hundred and sixty-seven silver…”
“Hmm, not bad…”
The man’s expression softened slightly, “The winter sacrifice is approaching. All sacrificial offerings must be prepared thoroughly, without any mistakes…”
“Yes, I am aware,” Xu Yunlang replied.
He bowed deeply, but his fist clenched secretly within his sleeve.
Although the sacrificial offerings were amply prepared, they lacked any novelty, and his branch would still fade into obscurity among the others.
If only he could obtain the Spirit Wine on that day, it would surely delight the ancestors and win their favor, but alas…
He could not say more at this time. After another bow, he retreated backward out of the study.
Soon after he stepped out the door, he encountered a finely dressed gentleman holding an ivory folding fan.
“So it’s Yunlang…”
The gentleman smiled and greeted Xu Yunlang upon seeing him.
Attendants and beautiful servants surrounded him, making his entourage even more imposing than Xu Yunlang’s single servant.
Xu Yunlang recognized him as Xu Yunding from the main branch and couldn’t help but show a flattering expression, “Eighth Brother… you’re also here?”
“Hmm, this mountain will be the foundation of our family in the future. We, the main lineage, should come and get accustomed to it more…”
Xu Yunding frowned, apparently finding this place much more humble compared to his luxurious home where wealth and plenty abounded.
