"What's going on?"
Li Yang, full of curiosity, walked to the door of the room. He looked through the peephole and saw two long-haired beauties in kimonos outside.
They had excellent figures and were incredibly beautiful!
He hadn't expected Zao Ri Feng Chun to be telling the truth and actually send two female subordinates.
Li Yang wasn't in the mood to play with them, so he ignored them. Thinking he had settled in, he decided to stay the night and just take a shower before sleeping.
This would also prevent Zao Ri Feng Chun's people from suspecting his identity.
Therefore, he didn't open the door and went directly to the bathroom to shower.
After showering, he returned to bed wrapped in a bath towel to sleep.
The night was silent.
The next morning, he woke up. The sky outside had already brightened. The two beauties from last night hadn't knocked on the door and had already left on their own.
Li Yang got up and stretched, thinking that the storm had passed and Jiangcheng's sky had finally brightened. It was time for him to go to the provincial capital to develop his career.
After washing up and having breakfast downstairs, he went to the antique shop and handed over his work there to Da Er Dong.
Additionally, he planned to take Qian Long and Zhou Yi with him to the provincial capital this time.
They were both his good disciples, and they wouldn't agree to be left behind here.
When the two of them heard they were going to the provincial capital, they both showed surprise.
"Master, is this true? You're taking us to the provincial capital to develop?"
Zhou Yi's eyes were shining. She had stayed here long enough and found it tedious. She wanted to go to a bigger place to shine.
Li Yang smiled slightly and said, "That's right. However, once you get to the provincial capital, you won't need to continue your training in the antique shop. I'll help you find a medical clinic. It's more suitable for you to work as a doctor in a clinic."
"Oh, that's good. I've learned a lot of medical skills from Master, and I haven't had a chance for practical experience yet. It would be great if I could work in a hospital," Zhou Yi agreed, nodding repeatedly.
"What about me, Master? Can I go to the antique shop with you?" Qian Long asked anxiously, pointing to his nose.
He also wanted to go to a larger market. Although he had more freedom here, and learning appraisal skills daily was divided into different categories and wasn't so boring, as a young master from the capital, being confined to such a small city for a long time inevitably made him feel bored.
While the provincial capital wasn't as grand as the capital, its market was much larger than Jiangcheng's. He, a big fish from the capital, could swim more freely there.
"Once you get there, you'll stay by my side and continue learning appraisal skills. Your current appraisal skills have achieved some success, but there's still a long way to go before mastery. When you reach the mastery level, I'll teach you medical skills, and I won't go back on my word," Li Yang stated decisively.
"Alright, Master, I will definitely live up to your expectations," Qian Long readily agreed.
Next, it was time for Li Yang to hand over his work to Da Er Dong.
Da Er Dong was already capable of managing this antique shop on his own and didn't need his supervision or management.
He was a native of Jiangcheng and had no ambition. Leaving him to look after the shop in Jiangcheng was the most suitable arrangement.
"Boss, don't worry. After you go to the provincial capital, I'll take care of all the business here. I won't disappoint you." Da Er Dong promised solemnly after hearing Li Yang's instructions.
Li Yang waved goodbye to him. As he left with Qian Long and Zhou Yi, he felt a little reluctant.
But there was no eternal feast. Li Yang couldn't stay by his side every day; there would always be times for separation.
"Boss Li, please wait!"
Just as Li Yang was about to leave, two girls' voices called out simultaneously.
Li Yang turned around and saw Zhao Xiaona and Zhao Xiaoxue running out. They had also heard the news of Li Yang's departure and were very reluctant to see him go.
"So it's you. How have you been staying with Boss Huang recently? Are you getting used to everything?" Li Yang asked with a smile.
"Yes, we're used to everything. Boss Li, when will you be back after going to the provincial capital this time? We'll miss you very much," Zhao Xiaona ran up and tightly held Li Yang's arm, asking.
"I'm not sure. I'll come back if I have time. You two behave yourselves and work hard at the shop. I'm relieved that Da Er Dong is here to teach you."
Li Yang had no intention of taking them with him. They were now adopted daughters of the Huang family, and if he took them away, Boss Huang would be unhappy.
In Li Yang's heart, they were like younger sisters, and of course, he was reluctant to leave them. But this departure was unavoidable, and he could only visit them later when he had time.
After bidding them farewell, Li Yang left with Qian Long and Zhou Yi.
Li Yang first asked them to go back and pack their things, as he still needed to go to Shui Xiang's place. Shui Xiang also wanted to develop in the provincial capital, so he had to take her along this time.
Actually, Li Yang was a little worried. He was bringing quite a few women to the provincial capital this time. Once they got there, with several women together, there might be constant jealousy.
He could only pray internally that Shui Xiang, Xiao Qing, and Zhou Yi could get along harmoniously.
On the way to the Fuhao Jade Gambling Field, Li Yang informed Fang Xiaoqing about his departure. Fang Xiaoqing had already packed her things at home and was waiting for Li Yang's call.
As soon as she heard that she could leave with Li Yang, she was so happy she could jump.
Li Yang arrived at the Fuhao Jade Gambling Field shortly after. Shui Xiang was busy in the shop, introducing raw jade and talking business with customers.
It was strange, as the Fuhao Jade Gambling Field usually didn't have so many customers, but today it was exceptionally busy.
Li Yang had been at the gambling field for quite some time but couldn't find an opportunity to chat with Shui Xiang.
After waiting for nearly half an hour, Shui Xiang finally finished with her customers. Sweating profusely, she walked over to Li Yang and smiled, "Li Yang, sorry to keep you waiting. The business at the jade gambling field is quite good today. Those customers just now were all regulars."
"It's a good thing that business is booming, but you must be tired. I've been too busy lately to help you," Li Yang said politely with a smile.
"You are the head of our household. Being busy is for our future home, so I understand."
Shui Xiang comforted Li Yang and then asked, "By the way, why did you suddenly come here? Last night, I saw on the news that the Public Security Bureau arrested many Japanese treasure thieves on Ziyun Mountain. You must have been involved, right? Are you injured?"
"How could those scoundrels injure me? I'm perfectly fine!"
Li Yang deliberately showed off his strong muscles as he spoke, "I came here today to ask if you could go to the provincial capital with me. But it seems you can't leave for a while."
"You're going to the provincial capital now?" Shui Xiang asked, looking astonished.
