Deep Moon Island.

Zhao Chamber of Commerce.

The sound of fiddling with an abacus was endless. As the head of the Chamber of Commerce, a certain Uncle Guili was calculating an account.

Back then, because he couldn’t pay off the debt of more than 50,000 gold coins, he was forced to leave the country and flee to the Thousand Islands.

Now that more than ten years had passed, even if this debt was calculated well, the interest alone would probably double or triple, reaching a terrifying hundred thousand.

Zhao Jie’s heart ached at the thought of this number.

This was more than 100,000 gold coins, not silver coins.

The conversion rate of silver and copper was 1:10, while gold and silver were 1:100!

In other words, if he wanted to return to the country, he would have to at least take out more than 10 million silver coins!

Even though it was an astronomical figure, Zhao Jie did not give up. Instead, he continued to work hard.

He had to admit that even in a place like Gui Li, where business flourished and competition was fierce, Zhao Jie was able to make it out. Although he lost in the end, his business acumen and ability were undeniable.

Therefore, after coming to the Thousand Islands, even though Zhao Jie started from scratch, after more than ten years of hard work, he could be considered to have some achievements. The Zhao Chamber of Commerce that owned several mines was his painstaking effort and fruit.

The profits of the mining factory were not considered huge in the Thousand Islands, but they were stable. According to Zhao Jie’s initial estimation, he would be able to save enough money to pay off his debts in another five or six years and reunite with his wife and daughter.

The result was unpredictable.

Zhao Jie had already sensed that something was wrong with the atmosphere in Thousand Islands in recent years. At this time, the right thing for businessmen to do was to quickly run away. However, even though it sounded simple, Zhao Jie was still reluctant to do it.

As expected, under the shady dealings of the Wizard election, his own mining factory was also implicated and innocently seized. The entire Chamber of Commerce was on the verge of bankruptcy overnight.

Thinking back to his predicament, even Uncle Gui Li couldn’t help but sigh at the miracle of fate. He sighed at the fact that he insisted on burning incense to the Rock Lord every day for so many years.

It was in such a desperate situation that Zhao Jie accidentally got the news that the Astorokis, which had not been touched for decades, was going to set sail in the near future.

No matter how expensive the ticket was, Zhao Jie still felt that it was quite magical. At that time, he seemed to be possessed. He had to board this ship at all costs, firmly believing that this would be his opportunity and turning point.

Looking back, perhaps this was the blessing of the Rock Lord?

There was no need to say more about what happened after that.

Not only did he get to know Vivian, but it seemed that she was definitely a powerful figure in the Fire Domain. What surprised Zhao Jie the most was the news of his daughter in Guili, and… It seemed that he had picked up a powerful and terrifying son-in-law for nothing?

Why did he say that?

Only Liao Zixuan knew about Time Reversal. In the later stages, it was only their small group. As an ordinary person, Zhao Jie was naturally not among them.

Therefore, from Zhao Jie’s perspective, Liao Zixuan had looked for him once. It was also that time that Zhao Jie mistakenly thought of Liao Zixuan as his daughter’s partner. That was why he gritted his teeth and risked being arrested for breaking the law to lend the mine to Liao Zixuan.

Zhao Jie didn’t know what happened after that.

However, only a few days later, the Three Supreme Courts of Thousand Islands suffered a great earthquake. A bunch of corrupt officials who colluded with foreign forces were arrested. The Supreme Courts of Great Fuxi and Kanding were all replaced. Moreover, the strong joined forces to continue targeting the most difficult Supreme Courts.

All of this made Zhao Jie certain that even if his daughter’s mysterious partner wasn’t the mastermind, he was definitely a key figure.

At first, Zhao Jie was a little unhappy like all the old fathers, as if a pig had eaten a cabbage. However, after this incident, Zhao Jie’s impression of Liao Zixuan changed drastically.

What was this?

This was the internal affairs of a country!

How much power did his daughter’s partner have to have to participate in it and even play a more important role?

How was this like a pig eating cabbage?

It was as if his own cabbage had been inserted into a dragon’s body!

Now that Zhao Jie thought about it carefully, Liao Zixuan’s strange behavior when he was talking about his daughter was no wonder his expression was a little evasive. Every time he reached a critical point, he would stutter and hesitate for a long time.

It seemed that it was not what he had thought. The other party was chasing after his daughter, but his daughter was the one who chased the other party first!

Perhaps they had not even pursued each other yet. Both parties were at a critical period, so she did not know how to face her father.

The more he thought about it, the more Zhao Jie felt that he was right to help Liao Zixuan.

After staying in the Thousand Islands for a long time, he had learned some local culture. In light novels, what was his behavior usually called…

Oh, right!

Assist!

He was helping his daughter!

Zhao Jie slapped his thigh. His voice scared the other finance officers in the chamber of commerce.

However, when they saw their boss smiling foolishly with a red face, they guessed that he had thought of something happy. The finance staff kept silent and lowered their heads to continue working.

The current Zhao Chamber of Commerce had miraculously come back from the dead. Because of the change in officials, the original sealing order was naturally invalid, and their mines could continue to operate.

Zhao Jie’s original plan was to ignore everything else and sell his assets to return to Guili to reunite with his wife and children..
