Chapter 435 - 435 435 Still Not Enough Fish

435: Chapter 435: Still Not Enough Fish 435: Chapter 435: Still Not Enough Fish Mr.

Fang didn’t spell out exactly who ‘they’ were, but everyone unspokenly understood.

After receiving the Healing Potions, Mr.

Fang didn’t let anyone else handle them and personally found a place to store them before he came out.

“Ah, why are you leaving so soon?

Have dinner before you go.”

“No, it’s getting late, and I need to rush back.

Otherwise, Elder Ye will start to worry,” Zhao Guang said, using Elder Ye as an excuse, which made Mr.

Fang’s face fall.

“That old coot, always causing trouble for the younger generation instead of minding his own business.”

“Let it go, you better hurry back to avoid that old coot coming over himself.”

This wasn’t just a possibility but a certainty because he knew his old friends all too well.

Since Zhao Guang had arrived in Beijing, Elder Ye had kept a very close watch on him, as if afraid he would be snatched away by someone else.

If not living at his own house, he was shadowed daily by Ye Zhi.

If it hadn’t been for a task taking Zhao Guang out, finding a chance to catch him alone would have been really difficult.

Of course, once Zhao Guang returned, those who had been tailing him also finally did so.

Each of them, along the way, was blocked in traffic to the point of questioning their life choices.

You’d think, why wouldn’t this guy use the official channels and instead block up the roads with his car?

Why bother?

With so many people, there was no fear of losing track of him, but they couldn’t get any closer either.

All along the road, it was almost at a standstill, a form of mental torture for anyone.

Driving back home, Elder Ye was indeed waiting there, having received the news beforehand.

Seeing Zhao Guang, Elder Ye showed a smile, “Back so soon?

Why hit the roads again?

You know how tough Beijing roads can be to navigate,” said Elder Ye with a smile while looking at Zhao Guang.

“Couldn’t help it, had to make the trip myself,”

Zhao Guang said with a wry smile as he got out of the car.

Indeed, he would have preferred to use special routes, but that would have exposed his possessions.

Just entering and exiting the warehouse, and suddenly items were missing and fish were added instead.

Did they really think no one was watching the warehouse?

Those people had been controlled by Zhao Guang using the Ghost Bottle.

But the more steps involved, the harder it was to cover up.

Even with the Ghost Bottle, there would always be some who were suspicious, who would start to notice something amiss through minor clues.

As Zhao Guang spoke, he gestured for people to unload, and seeing twenty White Marlins, Elder Ye’s mouth nearly split with glee.

But then, remembering Mr.

Fang had also gotten twenty, Elder Ye felt a bit depressed.

Since when were he and Mr.

Fang on the same level?

Ah, granddaughter, why can’t you be more competitive?

Elder Ye glanced at Ye Zhi with a hint of resentment.

Ye Zhi rolled her eyes.

What could she do?

Getting along with a steel-hearted man to this extent was already quite an achievement.

And that man’s views supported having multiple wives and concubines.

If she wasn’t careful, she wasn’t even sure she could hold her ground.

Sometimes a man being too capable isn’t a good thing; at the very least, it can make a woman feel insecure about certain matters.

Zhao Guang was unaware of their interaction and instead pulled out a box, “Five vials of Healing Potions, Mr.

Fang has the same, mainly for…” Zhao Guang whispered a few words.

Elder Ye’s expression turned serious.

This was something truly beneficial for the nation.

“I understand, I’ll arrange for someone to coordinate things.

Don’t worry, your items will definitely be put to good use for the nation.

But do take care of yourself, your safety is what’s most important,”

Zhao Guang nodded.

That wasn’t something he was worried about, since after all, he had become an Advanced Mage.

Once he mastered a few Advanced Spirit Illusion Techniques, there wouldn’t be many on Earth who could threaten him.

Elder Ye secured the items and signaled Ye Zhi to prepare dinner.

They hadn’t eaten dinner yet as they were waiting for Zhao Guang to show up.

Had he actually stayed at Mr.

Fang’s place, Elder Ye would have undoubtedly showed up at his door.

While Zhao Guang was having his meal, several of the old men happened to gather together.

“Elder Ye and Mr.

Fang, those two guys, actually got their hands on so many White Marlins.

That kid didn’t even bother to pay his respects to us, after all the help we’ve given them,” Elder Xu complained somewhat unhappily.

Elder Meng shook his head, “You can’t think like that.

Mr.

Fang cleared the way for that kid to get military supply status, and Elder Ye’s granddaughter is quite close to him.

Their relationships are naturally different.

Speaking of which, Elder Bai, didn’t you say you wanted your grandson to sacrifice a bit?”

Elder Bai replied irritably, “Sacrifice my ass, that kid has disappeared to who knows where now.”

Bai Yao’s dream was a career in politics, so he stayed away from that company, and the shares had nothing to do with him.

Recently, for his career’s sake, he was constantly on the go, making it impossible for Zhao Guang to meet him.

“By the way, Elder Ye and Elder Bai each got an equal share, that doesn’t seem like how you treat a grandfather.”

Suddenly, their eyes lit up.

Right, Ye Zhi hadn’t been successful.

The group began to consider if they had someone suitable in their families.

If they could make a match, things could change.

Not to speak of securing the pork and fish, but they could also enjoy any new stuff immediately.

As long as it didn’t harm national interests, what was wrong with having a taste for themselves?

At their age, shouldn’t they be allowed to have some good food?

“You all might be overthinking it.

If that were to happen, wouldn’t Elder Ye go mad?

Besides, who has a daughter better than Elder Ye’s?” Elder Xu said bluntly.

The others thought about it and realized it was true.

Especially Elder Bai, his family was thriving, but his granddaughters looked like tomboys, irritating just to look at.

As for the daughters of other families, not one of them stood out.

Alas, it seemed that it would benefit Elder Ye alone.

“Let’s not talk about that.

Let’s focus on the White Marlins.

Twenty each, making a total of forty, can those two guys even eat them all?

We should help them with their troubles,” one of them suggested.

“Just like that?

Doesn’t feel quite right,” Elder Meng was still somewhat concerned about their image.

“Just like that, what’s the problem?

Besides, if we don’t go, does that mean others won’t?” They were a tight circle, but that didn’t mean they were the only group of elders in Beijing.

The higher-ups, those old comrades, were plentiful and each held high positions.

Now that White Marlins were in sight, it would be strange if they could resist.

If it wasn’t for their early connection with Zhao Guang, others would have definitely intervened.

Zhao Guang was still a junior, and there was no need for so many elders to get to know him, as he wasn’t at that level yet.
