He used all his strength to kowtow to Su Feng several times.
This action left everyone else present speechless.
None of them expected that someone as proud as Jiang Dalong would one day express his gratitude in this way.
Seeing this, Su Feng smiled helplessly, "Get up, I don't need your way of thanking me... Just remember what you promised me."
"That's for sure!" Jiang Dalong burst into tears, crying like a woman, snot and tears streaming down his face...
"Alright, everyone go back." Uncle Jiu quickly came over to smooth things over, pulling Jiang Dalong up from the ground. "It's raining heavily, so don't linger here. Quickly take Lianmei and the child back to avoid catching a cold."
"Yes, yes! Right away!"
Jiang Dalong stopped being jealous of Uncle Jiu's feelings for Michelle Cheng Hu and hurriedly returned to Michelle's side, gently picking her up.
The mother is holding the child, and the husband is holding the wife.
The family of three seemed to blend into one, and this scene made Uncle Jiu's nose suddenly feel sore.
The love and hate from more than ten years ago can finally be let go at this moment.
"Brother, are you crying?"
Aunt Zhe leaned closer, tilting her head and gossiping.
Uncle Nine quickly turned his face away, "Stop crying, just go."
Secretly wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes, Uncle Jiu quickened his pace to catch up with Su Feng.
Luckily it was raining, otherwise he would have made a fool of himself.
……
The torrential rain overnight was followed by a clear blue sky and not a cloud in the sky the next day.
Sunlight streamed into the inn's courtyard, where Michelle sat on a stone bench, holding her child, basking in the sun.
Because of the tragedy that occurred at the Marshal's Mansion, Jiang Dalong naturally had no way to bring his family back. He could only have people remove the bodies from the Marshal's Mansion and handle the follow-up work.
As for Su Feng and his group, they also stayed at the same inn.
Living together means you can talk to each other face-to-face without having to travel back and forth.
Having received such great help from Su Feng, how could Jiang Dalong forget his kindness? He immediately sent his men to discuss and make arrangements with merchants in Jiuquan Town, and also signed contracts with several familiar shops in Shuilian Town.
Finally, a complete contract was drafted and neatly handed to Su Feng.
"Young Master Su! This contract above contains detailed information about several shops in Jiuquan Town. You can take a look at the details; I've basically arranged everything for you..."
"This second list covers the two most bustling streets in the upper district of Shuilian Town. They were originally under my management, but now they are all handed over to you, Young Master Su! Jewelry stores, pawnshops, antique shops, teahouses, and so on—all will open their doors to you at your command, Young Master Su!"
Jiang Dalong spoke with utmost respect, which pleased Su Feng.
They're really efficient; everything was resolved in just one night.
"I'm not a robber, I'm just a businessman." Su Feng pursed his lips, glanced at the contract, and put it into his Qiankun bag after confirming that it was correct.
"Hehehe, I was just using a metaphor, a metaphor..." Jiang Dalong scratched his head and laughed, "Young Master Su is my great benefactor. If Young Master Su has any requests, this entire Marshal's Mansion is yours!"
"That won't be necessary." Su Feng was almost amused by Jiang Dalong's overflowing enthusiasm.
The current harvest has far exceeded previous estimates.
Originally, Su Feng only wanted to get one or two shops from Jiang Dalong so that he could establish a foothold in the local area, lay a good foundation, and then gradually attract business from Renjia Town.
Now look what's happened! Two streets have been opened up at once! More than thirty shops! The range of businesses involved is countless!
It encompasses almost everything, including the food and beverage industry, the jewelry industry, and the entertainment industry!
In this way, he was able to develop his business in Shuilian Town and gradually expand his business empire... This continued until 4.2, when it extended to Jiuquan Town.
Using the wineries previously owned by Director Zhao as a connecting bridge, it might be possible to complete the project within a few years.
Of course, these are all plans, and they can't be accomplished by taking just one step.
"Young Master Su, are you leaving?"
Seeing Su Feng get up, Jiang Dalong quickly followed behind.
"I've gotten what I wanted, so naturally I'm going back," Su Feng said with a soft laugh.
Earlier today, Uncle Nine and Qiu Sheng and Wen Cai went back first. After all, they had been away for too long and there were things to take care of at the mortuary, so it was inconvenient for them to stay any longer.
As for Su Feng, he didn't care about the time; he could wait until Jiang Dalong had finished handling the contract before leaving.
"I'll have my men escort Young Master Su back. Renjia Town is a long way away; if we set off now, it will be night before we get back," Jiang Dalong said cheerfully, rubbing his hands together.
Su Feng shook his head. "No need. You should go back and keep Madam company. Don't worry about me."
With that, Su Feng left the room.
As I passed by the courtyard, I glanced at Michelin sitting on the stone bench outside, with the baby in her arms.
The child seemed to notice his presence, his big eyes blinking rapidly, his small, tender hands waving gently as if saying goodbye.
Su Feng smiled slightly, turned around and left gracefully.

Chapter 104 The Western Spiritualist's Holy Grail, the Ten-Life Demon Orb
We returned to Renjia Town at noon.
Unable to use the paper crane technique to fly through the clouds in broad daylight, they had no choice but to travel on foot.
After breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm, his walking speed was actually faster than his flying speed on the paper crane. He covered nearly a hundred kilometers in just the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
Returning once again, Su Feng felt a pang of nostalgia, as if he hadn't smelled the aroma of sesame cakes and the scent of rouge wafting from the streets and alleys for a while.
"It's definitely better here."
Su Feng couldn't help but sigh.
During this period, he traveled back and forth between Huangshi Village and Shuilian Town. Both places were relatively backward and poor, not to mention the severe class consciousness in Shuilian Town, which made him feel somewhat ashamed.
Having now gained management rights to two streets, Su Feng is also considering how to establish himself in Shuilian Town.
I ate something by the roadside and then bought two boxes of bean cakes on the way.
After being away for so long, I thought I'd buy something to treat my two sisters at home.
"I wonder if Chen Yue and Chen Xing have made any progress recently?"
With all sorts of thoughts swirling in his mind, Su Feng pushed open the gates of the Su residence.
"Drink!"
A burst of spiritual energy rushed towards us!
Su Feng instinctively stepped back to avoid it, and the ball of spiritual energy then slammed into the wall behind him, creating a hole.
What's the deal with this unique way of welcoming us?
"Young Master! Sister, you've caused trouble!"
From inside the courtyard came Chen Xing's gloating voice. Su Feng came to his senses and saw Chen Yue rushing over to check on him in a panic.
"I'm sorry, young master, just now, it was me..."
Chen Yue frantically patted Su Feng's body, afraid that she might have accidentally hurt him.
"Calm down, calm down, there's no need to be so nervous... If I were really that easy for you to hit, then I should call you master." Su Feng waved his hand with a smile.
Then, he went to the wall that had been hit and pointed to the hole in it. "Did you do this?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yue immediately panicked and repeatedly bowed, apologizing, "I'm sorry, young master! I didn't control my spiritual power well! I will take responsibility for the damage to the wall!"
She seems to have misunderstood what she meant.
Su Feng beamed with delight. Instead of scolding him, he gave him a thumbs-up, "Not bad! Strong and powerful! These blue bricks and tiles are known for their thickness and sturdiness; to have them broken like this is truly impressive!"
It seems that Chen Yue has not fallen behind during this period; on the contrary, he has made great progress, which is truly gratifying for him.
"Master, you are back."
Uncle Fu walked out of the hall, still as kind and indifferent as ever.
"Several people have come to the house while the young master has been away for the past few days."
Su Feng nodded thoughtfully, "It's alright, they're probably all merchants from Jiuquan Town, they're probably here to discuss opening a shop with me."
"Why is the young master opening a shop in Jiuquan Town?" Fu Bo's face rarely showed any expression other than indifference.
"This was mentioned when I was doing business with Ren Fa before... By the way, how's the winery business going?" Su Feng asked, remembering Director Zhao's matter.
Uncle Fu nodded slightly. "As per the young master's instructions, I have already sent people to Jiuquan Town and Shuilian Town to take over the wineries. We can start production at any time, as per the young master's instructions."
"That's good."
Su Feng smiled contentedly.
It seems that everything has been progressing smoothly during the few days I've been away from home.
First, the two sisters, Chen Yue and Chen Xing, improved their cultivation levels significantly, and second, they also made great breakthroughs in their business dealings.
The businesses that Director Zhao has established in Jiuquan Town and Shuilian Town alone are enough for him to enjoy for quite some time now.
"Chenyue, go fetch water for the young master," Uncle Fu instructed. Chenyue quickly picked up a basin and ran to the backyard.
Su Feng wanted to refuse, as he had other things to do back in his room.
But then I thought better of it. It's a rare opportunity to come home, so I'll take a nice bath to welcome myself back and wash away the dust of the journey.
……
"It's definitely more comfortable to take a bath at home!"
Su Feng buried himself in the hot water, feeling the warm water covering his skin and soaking every pore.
The exhilarating feeling made him groan involuntarily.
"I really didn't expect to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm this time," Su Feng muttered to himself as he picked up the water in his hands and placed it in front of him.
