Fang Mu cleared his throat and projected an extremely polite and respectful attitude traditionally presented to elders. He smiled and said, “Uncle Yi, I have long respected your renowned reputation!”
“I am honored to have the opportunity to listen to Uncle Yi’s teachings!”
In his past life, when dealing with distinguished biologists and leading scholars, this was the kind of attitude Fang Mu used.
Now, facing Yi Han, Fang Mu also adopted this very same attitude.
Lu Yuyu couldn’t hear what Yi Han had said on the other side of the phone.
But Fang Mu’s addressing as ‘Uncle Yi’ made Lu Yuyu’s eyes widen.
Fang Mu was clearly competing with Yi Han just a moment ago, so why was he calling Yi Han ‘Uncle Yi’ now?
Could it be that Fang Mu knew Yi Han from before?
Lu Yuyu started to make assumptions.
If Fang Mu really knew Yi Han yet acted nonchalantly while competing with him,
It means that Fang Mu didn’t take Yi Han seriously at all.
Fang Mu’s actions indirectly reflect the attitude of the Qixing Grandmaster.
It seems that the Qixing Grandmaster doesn’t regard Yi Han, who just became a Grandmaster Creator, that highly.
In that case, Yi Han made this call to apologize to Fang Mu!
Upon having this thought, Lu Yuyu, who originally held a deep admiration and respect for Yi Han, suddenly felt that Yi Han did not seem all that unapproachable.
Yi Han figured Jianmu would respond positively to his advances.
He had not known Qixing before, so Qixing would have no reason to hold a grudge against him.
Besides, he was the first to name a price in the recent transaction, and after that, Jianmu didn’t compete anymore.
Under these circumstances, Jianmu shouldn’t harbor any hostility towards him!
However, Yi Han did not expect Jianmu to directly address him as ‘Uncle Yi’ and ask him so humbly if he had any teachings to share.
If someone else had asked him this, Yi Han would have readily nod his approval.
Because in Yi Han’s view, there were few young people in the world whom he was not qualified to advise.
But facing Jianmu, Yi Han dared not agree no matter what.
If he showed any intention of teaching Jianmu, wouldn’t that be equivalent to slapping Qixing in the face, and trying to steal his disciple!?
Thinking about this, Yi Han couldn’t decide whether the young man on the phone was genuinely humble and polite or whether he was setting a trap for him to fall into.
“My nephew is jesting, I’m not qualified to teach you anything!”
“May I ask in which city are you currently residing?”
“If you happen to be in The Capital, you are most welcome to visit us at the Yi Family! ”
Hearing Yi Han’s invitation, Fang Mu became certain that he didn’t need to bait any further.
“Uncle Yi, I am currently in Jing Hai Province, not in The Capital.”
“I appreciate your invitation.”
“I have a commerce association opening up in The Capital, if I get the chance, I hope Uncle Yi could help take care of it!”
Fang Mu knew that after being nice to him, Yi Han would most likely have something to say.
However, without a lead-in, Yi Han would find it hard to bring it up.
Now that he had taken the initiative to ask Yi Han for a favor, it should make it easier for Yi Han to say whatever he needed to.
The Jianmu Commerce Association was managed by Fang Yuan.
To carve out a share of the cake as a new commerce organization, or even to strive for the leading position, some troubles were sure to occur.
Someone had to shoulder these troubles.
Fang Mu couldn’t possibly rely on Qixing’s reputation to resolve all problems all the time.
When it came down to infringing on the territories of others, there would always be some reckless individuals willing to risk everything.
If the newly promoted Grandmaster Creator, Yi Han, could provide some support and help Jianmu Commerce Association face issues,
The journey of Jianmu Commerce Association would be a lot smoother!
Hearing Fang Mu’s words, Yi Han eagerly agreed.
“My nephew is opening a commerce association on my turf, of course, I have to take good care of it.”
“Rest assured, your association won’t encounter any trouble in The Capital!”
“May I ask the name of your commerce association?”
Hearing Yi Han’s assurance, Fang Mu was taken aback.
What startled Fang Mu was not Yi Han’s grandstanding, but that Yi Han implicitly referring to The Capital as his own turf in the conversation.
Such audacity!
The Dragon Rising Federation currently has two Grandmaster Creators residing in The Capital.
Besides these two Grandmaster Creators, the high-level members of the eight major official organizations were all top-tier experts.
It seems that even after much consideration as a newly-promoted Grandmaster Creator, Yi Han still cannot curb his arrogance. His behavior of trying to get close to Qixing by befriending Jianmu implies this. But subconsciously, Yi Han still thinks too highly of himself!
Fang Mu stated directly,
“My commerce association has not started official operations yet, it’s called
Jianmu Commerce Association.”
“It will probably open for business next month.”
Hearing this, Yi Han seemed to have thought of something and laughed.
“The opening next month is a good time!”
“When it’s time for the grand opening, I will personally attend.”
“Your commerce association is surely participating in the Commerce Association Festival next month, right?”
“I just happened to be a guest at the Commerce Association Festival, I will gladly assist you!”
Yi Han, seeking to entice Jianmu and get close to Qixing, indeed spared no difficulties nor insincerities.
Otherwise, a Grandmaster Creator wouldn’t attend a commerce association’s grand opening as a special guest.
However, Yi Han was not aware that his generous commitment would cause him significant trouble in the future.
Right now, Yi Han felt that he had done Jianmu a favor and that if he put forward some requests, Jianmu shouldn’t refuse..
