Chapter 19 Showdown
"How dare they! How could they do that! The old man has already lowered his posture, but they abandon the old man like a shoe!
Hahahahaha, he also said that he would advance together and retreat together, and immediately abandon my Li family when he saw difficulties. He is really a good one who advances together and retreats together!
hahahaha"

Li Xuanji collapsed in his study, angrily venting the resentment and disappointment in his heart.

The actions of Chen, Wang and Sun, who are also four big families, made him feel chilled, and what frightened him even more was the terror of his opponents.

Now he no longer thinks that the opponent is only Feiyun Commercial Bank. No matter how rich and powerful Feiyun Commercial Bank is, their foundation is in Bianjing after all.

And the leaders of Yunzhou County don't need to give Feiyun Firm face at all. Only the local powerful figures in Yunzhou County, or those who the leaders dare not provoke, speak up, and they dare to ignore the four major families.

But who is behind this scene?He is definitely not doing this for money. With the size of Feiyun Commercial Firm, he can slowly encroach on his own share in the form of boiling frogs in warm water, instead of taking risks and going directly to Yunzhou County to grab business.

Just when he felt that the future was hopeless, and the Li family was about to collapse, the housekeeper knocked on the door.

"My lord, there is a guest here."

"No! No! I won't see anyone today! Get out of here! Get out of here!"

Li Xuanji angrily drove the housekeeper away, telling him not to bother him.

The butler was scolded bloody, and he should have left directly, but after thinking about the identity of the person who came, and the current situation facing the Li family, he still suppressed the fear in his heart and reminded the owner at the risk of angering him. road:
"Master, why don't you meet me? It's Yun Li, the shopkeeper of Yunzhou County of Feiyun Trading Company who came to our house some time ago."

"Get out! Get out of here! What cloud ceremony and Zhang ceremony, I will not see anyone!"

Li Xuanji was still burning with anger.

Seeing this, the butler shook his head helplessly, and was about to leave, but the furious voice inside stopped, and the voice of the Patriarch Li Xuanji came out again: "Wait! Who did you say was here?"

The butler's eyes were filled with joy, the Patriarch finally returned to normal, and hurriedly replied:
"Master, it's Yun Li, the shopkeeper of Yunzhou County, Feiyun Commercial Bank, who was here last time."

There was a moment of silence in the room, and then Li Xuanji's deep voice came out: "Welcome him to the living room, I'll be there right away after I pack up."

"Yes, sir!"

The housekeeper responded respectfully, and hurriedly left to arrange for someone to welcome the big shopkeeper to the living room. Before leaving, he didn't forget to order the maid beside him to quickly bring a suit of decent clothes into the room for the master to change and tidy up.

……

Yun Li was still the same as when he came last time, sitting calmly drinking tea, waiting for Li Xuanji's arrival.

He didn't make him wait for long, and in less than a quarter of an hour, Li Xuanji, who had changed his clothes and tidied up, walked in quickly, walked straight to Yun Li, and just stared at him motionless.

Even though he was stared at like this, Yun Li still had that unhurried appearance, just sipping tea lightly, and after the fifth sip of tea, he put the teacup back on the table beside him, and raised his eyes to meet He met Li Xuanji's aggressive gaze.

"Heh~ What's the matter? I haven't seen Patriarch Li for a long time. When Yun came, Patriarch Li just stared at Yun. This doesn't seem like the way to treat guests!

In addition, Yun must declare in advance that Yun does not like to get too close to men, and his future wife must be a virtuous lady. "

Yun Li chuckled, and spoke with a sense of ridicule, breaking the stalemate between the two.

The corner of Li Xuanji's mouth twitched, and he snorted in a daze:
"Hmph, shopkeeper Yunda, don't worry, Li is not the kind of person who likes to get close to men.

Li just wanted to know what happened to such a busy person as the shopkeeper of Yunda, instead of watching a lot of income in the store at this time, and instead came to my competitor's house?
Could it be that he came here to see my Li family's jokes? If that's the case, then I can only forgive Li for not being able to entertain shopkeeper Yunda here! "

As he said that, Li Xuanji moved half of his body away, indicating that if he really came to see a joke, please leave on his own.

Naturally, Yun Li would not get up and leave, but suddenly withdrew the relaxed and freehand smile on his face, his expression became serious, and asked aloud:

"At this point, Master Li, do you think your Li family still has the ability to stand up?"

Li Yuanji's expression froze when he heard the words, and after a while, he suppressed the anger in his chest, stared at Yun Li with a gloomy expression and asked:

"I don't know where my Li family provoked your firm, so that your firm targeted my Li family everywhere, and even drove my Li family into such a desperate situation?"

Yun Li shook his head slowly: "No! Patriarch Li, you are wrong, my Feiyun Firm is not targeting your Li family."

Li Xuanji was taken aback when he heard the words, and before he could say anything, Yun Li continued, "Our Feiyun Firm is targeting those who dare to oppose the lord in the entire Yunzhou County!"

"My lord?"

Li Xuanji was stunned at first, and then a person he had never thought of before appeared in his mind.

Apart from the newcomer in Yunzhou County, who else can deserve the title of prince!
But...but...but how is this possible!

Li Xuanji took a staggering step back, and collapsed on another chair.

"Impossible...impossible...this is impossible..."

He kept mumbling to himself, unable to believe the news.

But the reality forced him to believe it again, because he now understood that the chiefs of those tribes probably stopped cooperating with them precisely because of King Yun's status as the prince of the Song royal family.

In the entire Yunzhou County, he is the only one with such righteousness and such a reputation!

Slowly, Li Xuanji accepted the reality, his originally dizzy pupils retracted, and he slumped on a chair weakly and said dejectedly:
"Then why are you here? Now that my Li family has no chance to stand up, and the prince's goal has been achieved, why are you here?"

Yun Li shook his head slightly, and then said: "Patriarch Li, I'm afraid you have misunderstood something.

Could it be that you thought the prince targeted your Li family just to make an example of others? "

"Isn't it?" Li Xuanji asked back.

"With the lessons learned from my Li family, I am afraid that the other three families will not dare to fight against the prince easily. Isn't that enough?"

"not enough!"

Yun Li said categorically.

"What the prince wants is not that they are afraid, but that they have no power to resist. What the prince wants is that this Yunzhou County can only have the voice of the prince alone, as for the others, they can only be vassals.

And I came to you today to give you the Li family a chance! "

"Chance?!"

Li Yuanji froze for a moment, then thought of something, his eyes gradually brightened.

The Li family seems to be saved. Even if they can no longer monopolize it like they did in the past, they can still keep from becoming a passing cloud. If they do a good job, they might be even more brilliant!

"Master Li, the prince is looking forward to your nomination certificate, and I hope you will not disappoint the prince's expectations."

After saying that, Yun Li got up and walked out.

Li Xuanji sat quietly on the spot, lost in thought.
