Son, Put Your Father To The Test - Chapter 13

Chapter 13: The Invitation of Minghao City Lord

Translator: Zayn_

After a long time, Qin Chuan and his son arrived at the chosen courtyard under the guidance of the steward, Lu Ming.

When they opened the gate, the first thing they saw was a clear circular pool with a white jade bridge carved with dragons and phoenixes.

After passing the white jade bridge, they saw a garden with green bamboo and various flowers, as well as a pavilion for enjoying the cool air.

In the depths of the garden, one could see a very grand building standing tall. That was the residence.

“Sir, the relevant procedures for this courtyard have been completed. From now on, this courtyard belongs to you.”

“As for the maids and servants that go with the courtyard, the Chamber of Commerce will soon send them over.”

“Of course, if you are worried about using them, you can also go to the slave market and buy a few servants yourself.”

Lu Ming said politely.

“Okay, then we will go and buy the servants ourselves. Thank you,” Qin Chuan cupped his hands and said.

“Ahem, you are too kind, Sir.”

Lu Ming was a little flattered, then said, “If you have no other instructions, then I will take my leave.”

“Go.”

Qin Chuan nodded.

Lu Ming turned around and left respectfully.

“Wow! This courtyard is so luxurious. It’s much better than our house in the Qin family!”

After seeing Lu Ming leave, Qin Zi couldn’t hold it in any longer. He was so excited that he almost jumped up.

“Slap!”

Qin Chuan slapped his forehead and said indifferently, “Useless. Isn’t it just a courtyard where Pure Yang realm cultivators live?”

“You will know in the future that the real super existences all live in the Immortal Palaces. Even…”

Even what?

Don’t say it!!

There would be suspense.

Suspense was the best.

“OH.”

Qin Zi calmed down after being splashed with cold water, and he worshipped his father even more.

His father was indeed a man who had seen the world, and nothing could faze him at all!

“Let’s go to the new house and see which room you want to stay in. Son… you can choose first.”

Qin Chuan’s voice was slightly gentle.

Although.

His cheap son was here to take over the business. It was indeed very cheap, but he was willing to treat him a little better without harming his interests.

Humans were not plants. Who could be heartless?

It took the father and son a long time to familiarize themselves with the structure of the courtyard.

Although no one lived here for a long time, it was spotless because the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce sent people to clean it regularly every month.

In the spacious and bright hall.

Qin Chuan said, “We don’t have any servants at home now. I’m still worried about using the servants from the Chamber of Commerce.”

“Especially since you have a secret. Although it’s not a big deal, it’s still not good for you if it’s exposed…”

“So, you’d better go and buy a few servants yourself.”

Qin Zi’s eyes lit up when he heard that!

“Really?”

Let him go again?

He had messed up buying a house before, and now he had to go and buy servants? Did his father trust him so much?

“Yes, Father doesn’t mid. It’s mainly about what kind of servants you like. You pick them yourself, and it’ll be convenient to use them.”

Qin Chuan said.

Instantly, Qin Zi’s face showed a touch of gratitude. So, Father was thinking of him.

He took a deep breath, clenched his fists, and said confidently, “Father, don’t worry. I’ll definitely buy a few obedient servants!”

After saying that, he walked out.

He was going to do it!

As for Qin Chuan, he looked at his cheap son’s back and revealed a warm smile.

This time, he didn’t want to cheat his son.

Because even if he was a good-for-nothing main character, it was impossible for him to have conflicts with people every time he went out, right?

Generally speaking.

If the right person went shopping, it was very likely that he would buy a broken version of an ancient divine artifact from a roadside stall.

Or, he would pick up a dirty little girl with a special bloodline and physique, and after this little girl was picked up and cleaned, she would turn out to be very beautiful…

In short.

This was an opportunity for his cheap son.

He also didn’t think of snatching the opportunity from his cheap son. Firstly, he still had a bottom line, and secondly, there was no need.

After all, the stronger his son was, the stronger his ability to stir up trouble would be, and the stronger he would become.

He and his son were actually in a relationship where both of them would rise and fall together.

If one day, his son was really killed, then he would… well, he could actually have more children.

He could even have many more.

However, he was afraid that he wouldn’t do that, because he didn’t want his child to be used as a tool by his father to rise in this world.

If it wasn’t for love…

Why would he let the child be born?

He wouldn’t easily give birth to a child.

And now, he wouldn’t really hurt this “cheap son” who called him father. He would just use him reasonably.

He had to use him!

Because in this kind of world, without strength, there would be nothing!

If he softened his heart today, became sentimental, and couldn’t bear to harm his son, then in the future, when his cheap son faced despair, when his family was separated, when his master was sacrificed, when his friends died tragically… What could he do?

He could only do nothing!

He did not want to be a person who could do nothing at the crucial moment, nor did he want to be an insignificant person. Therefore, he had to become stronger.

The system was his only chance.

Without the system, how could he turn the world upside down?

The memories of his transmigration could not give him any advantages. This world was not one where a person could rise by making money, brewing wine, copying poems, mathematics, physics, and chemistry.

He had to make the best use of the system in order to have the capital to establish himself in this world!

“The Envoy from the City Lord’s Mansion requests to meet Senior Qin!”

At this moment, a clear voice sounded from outside the courtyard.

“Please come in.”

Qin Chuan said calmly.

The pure yang expert’s heart was beating like thunder, so even though his voice was low, it still traveled far.

Soon, a group of city guards in silver armor jogged in and stood in two rows outside the house, forming a welcoming formation.

A handsome young man in white walked in. He was handsome and had a warm smile on his face.

“Bai Yichen from the City Lord’s mansion greets Senior Qin.”

The young man in white bowed slightly and said politely.

“So it is the Young City Lord who has arrived. Sorry for not welcoming you.”

Qin Chuan was slightly surprised. This polite young man in front of him was actually the son of the City Lord of Minghao, Bai Chen.

As a Minghao City was a main city overseeing Xunyang City, Qin Chuan had some understanding of it, at least enough to have a rough idea.

“Senior Qin is too polite. This junior also heard that senior has come to Minghao City, so I came to pay you a visit.”

Bai Yichen said with a smile.

“Haha, I’m not a big shot. Young City Lord being so polite really makes me feel flattered.”

Qin Chuan smiled and shook his head. Then, he said apologetically, “I just moved in, and I don’t have any tea at home. I’ve been neglectful.”

“No worries.”

Bai Yichen waved his hand and said, “Actually, this junior came here to ask if Senior Qin is interested in joining the city guards. The city Lord’s Mansion is willing to give you the position of the Fifth Commander.”

“Are you trying to recruit me?” Qin Chuan asked with a smile.

“Senior, you are exaggerating. We are all working for the royal family. It can’t be considered a recruitment.” Bai Yichen said humbly.

“Then what if I don’t want to work for the royal family?”

Qin Chuan asked.

Bai Yichen was silent for a moment. Then, he sighed with a bitter smile, “I knew it would be like this…”

After saying that, he took out a long and exquisite box from his interspatial ring and handed it to Qin Chuan with both hands.

“My father said that if senior really doesn’t want to join the City Lord’s mansion, then I should give this Pure Yang Spirit Sword to senior as a way of making friends.”

Qin Chuan looked at the box and pondered for a moment before asking, “Is this just for me, or do all the Pure Yang realm experts who come to Minghao City have it?”

Bai Yichen looked at Qin Chuan and smiled, “They all have it.”

When Qin Chuan heard this, he immediately understood.

It would be a waste if he didn’t accept the sword today. Furthermore, he had to accept it!

This could be considered a bribe from the City Lord’s Manor to a Pure Yang realm expert. It could also be considered a warning.

It meant, ‘If you’ve come to Minghao City, it’s fine if you don’t join the City Lord’s mansion. But don’t cause any trouble!’

‘The benefits have already been given to you. I hope that you won’t disturb the order. Otherwise…. don’t blame my City Lord’s mansion for being impolite first!’
