Monarch Night
Chapter 1095 - 266: Your Dad Is Pretty Impressive! [Ten Thousand Words!]
"I think so myself."
Jiang Shangou laughed heartily, a thoughtful and uncertain glimmer in his eyes quickly flashed by.
Then he said, "Since that’s the case, I’ll be on my way. Looking forward to our next meeting... Uh, Mr. Fang, are you still working in Baiyun State?"
"Yes, I’m still in Baiyun State."
"Then we’ll be in touch more often." Jiang Shangou smiled, "Safe travels, hurry home."
"I wish you a smooth journey."
"Great!"
Jiang Shangou burst into laughter, leaped up, and disappeared in an instant.
Fang Che and Ye Meng continued on their way.
After they had walked for quite some time.
A figure flashed on the tree beside, and Jiang Shangou stood there again.
He looked at the path stretching ahead, frowned, deep in thought.
Doubt filled his eyes, "Didn’t feel the slightest familiarity... and the way he talked, it’s not quite like our leader’s cheeky mouth..."
"He didn’t even react to seeing me? That’s odd."
"Very strange indeed."
"After this mission, I must make a trip to Tiandu. Coincidentally, second brother is the Mountain Master there, and third brother is the Deputy Mountain Master. Could it be that they sang drunkenly and were overheard? And word got out?"
He shook his head, thinking it was a bit far-fetched to suspect based on ’knowing how to sing this song’.
Because although not many people knew the song, there were definitely thousands, even tens of thousands who did.
Back then, it was just the seven of us brothers shouting it out, who knows how many people heard it...
But it is true that it’s been centuries since others sang this song.
"After discussing with second and third brothers... if necessary, I’ll come to Bibo City again."
He stood there considering for a long time, finally leaped up, and chased after the group from afar.
Fang Che and Ye Meng hurried another fifty miles before they started talking.
"That man just now turned out to be the Tianquan Monarch. Can’t believe it, though his demeanor was a bit strange."
Ye Meng said.
"I also felt he seemed a bit crazy."
Fang Che speechlessly said, "I just offered a bit of courtesy... asked if he’d like to visit, and he immediately agreed. I offered a firm courtesy..."
Ye Meng covered her mouth, laughing, "But many seniors in the Jianghu are straightforward like that, quite earnest. It’s normal."
Fang Che spread his hands, "There’s nothing I can do if it’s not normal, is there?"
"Hehehe..." Ye Meng laughed.
"But his attitude towards me was odd, felt like he mistook me for someone else."
Fang Che frowned, steering Ye Meng’s thoughts in another direction, "Could he think I’m a descendant of his old acquaintance?"
Ye Meng’s eyes lit up instantly, "You know, there’s really a possibility of that."
Thinking carefully, she confirmed, "It’s quite likely. And it should be from a superior’s lineage."
"I feel the same way."
Fang Che nodded, then diverted Ye Meng’s thoughts further, "Ye Meng, do you think my unseen father... whose name I don’t even know, could he be a high-ranking official?"
Ye Meng immediately rolled her eyes but couldn’t help but chuckle.
"I say, stop thinking about that. If he were a high-ranking official... mom wouldn’t still be in Bibo City."
"What you’re saying makes sense."
Fang Che sighed, "If he were really a high-ranking official, would I be having such a hard time?"
Ye Meng pouted, not wanting to speak.
You? Having a hard time?
You’re living a life that almost the whole world envies, right?
The journey was smooth, and they reached Bibo City.
But they found the entire Bibo City decorated with red flowers and colorful banners from the city gate, a joyful sight everywhere.
The two were surprised, which prominent family is having a wedding?
Such a spectacle? Even decorated the whole Bibo City?
At the city gate, someone recognized Fang Che and immediately cheered, "The World’s First King, Mr. Fang Che, has returned!"
Instantly, there was an uproar, and the city gate was packed.
Fang Che was black-lined.
What’s going on?
I didn’t know I was so welcome...
After asking, they found out that the Bibo Town Guardian Hall and the Southeast Headquarters had sent people to deliver many rewards to the Fang Family, as well as a very impressive banner and a medal...
And they personally hung a plaque reading: Hero of the Continent! at the gate of the Fang Mansion!
The endorsement was even from the Guardian Headquarters!
This incident shocked the entire Bibo City, reportedly Fang Che’s uncle Fang Zhenghang nearly fainted from happiness several times on that day...
He laughed heartily so many times he almost choked himself twice...
Now the area in front of the Fang family gate has almost become a tourist spot in Bibo City.
Fang Zhenghang was overjoyed and decorated the entire Bibo City with red flags, red flowers, and red lanterns in celebration.
Such extravagance made Fang Che feel distressed just hearing about it.
It’s a whole city!
It’s a city of millions of people!
This isn’t just one street, dear uncle, how are you even more extravagant than I am? Too wasteful!
And Fang Che knew his uncle’s temperament, when in a good mood, he would start distributing aid to the poor across the entire city, setting up gruel stands outside the city, and giving out gifts everywhere...
Carts of candy and copper coins were scattered like they were free...
Sure enough, looking carefully, there were gruel stands on both sides of the city gate...
But there weren’t many people coming to eat and drink.
"Why aren’t there many people at the gruel stands?" Fang Che asked, surprised.
"In recent years, with the development of the Fang Family, the Family Head has been distributing wealth continuously, and many people also have work opportunities... so the number of poor around Bibo City has been decreasing, they’re no longer as poor, though not wealthy yet, but at least every family has some surplus grain."
"All thanks to the Great Fang."
The guard spoke with admiration.
