"Hmm... I'm glad you understand." Su Feng nodded with relief.
Although Jiang Dalong usually seems a bit reckless and clumsy, he can still be useful at crucial moments.
Moreover, this time, in order to deal with foreign enemies, it is essential to gather the warlords together to contribute their efforts.
This applies not only to the southern warlords, but also to the northern warlords.
The project is quite large, and it will take a considerable amount of time to complete.
However, this matter cannot be rushed. If something goes wrong, it could cause another mess.
With external enemies at hand, civil war is no longer an option.
"You should stay in town for the next couple of days. After that, I'll go with you to Huaxiang Town to find Commander Guo."
Su Feng said in a flat voice.
He had met Commander Guo and others briefly before, when he was at the Marshal's Mansion in Luhua Town...
The reason I accompanied Jiang Dalong this time was to get this matter settled as soon as possible.
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Young Master Su!" Jiang Dalong nodded gratefully.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, I left the thatched hut.
He did not intend to stay overnight in the banana grove, but instead chose to find an inn in Renjia Town to stay at.
Su Feng also needed to make a detour back to town, so he traveled with Jiang Dalong.
……
"Then I'll take my leave now."
In front of an inn in Renjia Town, Jiang Dalong respectfully bowed to Su Feng before turning around and entering the inn.
Su Feng then went to the herbal medicine pavilion alone.
The materials have been consumed at an alarming rate recently, with thousands being used every day.
The materials he bought a few days ago were almost gone, which is why Su Feng made a special trip out of his way.
Of course, he could easily delegate these minor matters to Chen Yue and Chen Xing.
I've been feeling a bit bored in the banana grove these past few days, so I thought I'd take this opportunity to visit Ren Fa, say hello, and check on his business progress.
This is what it truly means to enjoy life.
He had absolutely no interest in fighting, killing, or any kind of江湖 (jianghu, a term referring to the martial arts world) conflicts.

Chapter 246 A Young Girl's Thoughts, Ren Tingting with a Frowning Face
Ren Tingting sat listlessly in the teahouse, finding the pastries beside her tasteless.
"Tingting, what's wrong?"
Seeing his daughter's worried expression, Ren Fa asked her with concern.
Ren Tingting shook her head and stirred the coffee in her cup with a spoon. "It's nothing... Dad, you don't need to worry about me."
She lied.
Actually, all she could think about right now was Su Feng.
She hadn't seen Su Feng for quite some time since their last meeting.
I inquired about it some time ago and found out that Su Feng went to Luhua Town, which is thousands of miles away from here, and he went there with a beautiful girl.
This made her even more depressed.
I feel a little unbalanced... Why couldn't it be her who spent the whole night with Su Feng!
"Mr. Ren, it's been a long time."
Just then, a familiar voice came from 06, which made Ren Tingting shudder and almost spill her coffee.
Looking up, she saw that it was indeed the person she had been thinking about day and night.
"Young Master Su!!"
Ren Tingting stood up and couldn't help but shout it out.
The sound was quite loud, attracting the attention of the surrounding tea drinkers.
"Tingting, what are you doing? Behave yourself." Ren Fa felt embarrassed and quickly reminded her in a low voice, pulling Ren Tingting down again. "Don't be rude."
"Haha, it's alright, it's alright."
Su Feng smiled nonchalantly and sat down at the table. "I just happened to be passing by and thought that Master Ren might be here, so I came in to take a look."
It really was a coincidence.
After purchasing the medicinal herbs from Daoyao Herbs Pavilion, they had their workers deliver them directly to their door and then returned the way they came.
I passed by this teahouse I frequented and went in for a look. To my surprise, Ren Fa was indeed inside.
"Oh, Mr. Su, you're too kind. Come, come, have some tea!"
Ren Fa quickly poured hot tea for Su Feng.
In an instant, the aroma of tea filled the air, permeating the entire teahouse.
"Young Master Su...it's been a long time."
Ren Tingting, standing to the side, pursed her lips, her cheeks flushed, and stared intently at Su Feng.
Those crystal-clear eyes seemed to radiate light.
"Ahem..." Ren Fa coughed lightly, reminding his infatuated daughter beside him to be careful.
Ren Tingting then realized that she had been somewhat out of line, lowered her head, and was too shy to raise it again.
"Um, I heard that Young Master Su went to Deer Flower Town a while ago to attend Marshal Xu's wedding banquet?" Ren Fa lit a cigarette and asked curiously.
When Ren Fa heard this news, he was quite surprised.
This young master Su is indeed no ordinary person. Not only can he get along well with Jiang Dalong, but he also knows Commander Xu, who is thousands of kilometers away!
That's a very important person!
Holding military power and possessing vast wealth, he was an absolute warlord!
Of course, Ren Fa had no idea that Commander Xu was now a skeleton buried deep underground, never to see the light of day again.
"That's absolutely right," Su Feng said frankly, without any intention of hiding anything. "Something happened during that time, which delayed my return trip."
"I see." Ren Fa nodded thoughtfully, then took a sip of tea. As if he had made up his mind, he mustered up his courage and asked, "By the way, is Young Master Su free today?"
"Oh? Is there something you need, Mr. Ren? Please speak freely."
Ren Fa waved his hand with a smile, "What could possibly be wrong with an old man like me? It's just that my silly daughter hasn't left the house for several days. She was quite reluctant to come to the teahouse with this old man today..."
"So if Young Master Su has some free time, why not take Tingting for a stroll around? I heard that a theatrical troupe has recently come to town. Why not go and listen to some opera or music?"
Everyone knows the heart of Sima Zhao.
Even a fool could understand the meaning behind Ren Fa's words.
However, Su Feng did not refuse.
On the contrary, Ren Tingting's face turned as red as a tomato, and she kept tugging at Ren Fa's hand, "Daddy~"
Her shy, bashful expression and coquettish tone were also endearing.
"Alright, alright, Dad knows you're bored at home, so go out for a stroll with Young Master Su to cheer yourself up."
Ren Fa patted Ren Tingting's hand earnestly, his eyes seeming to say something.
That's all Dad can do to help you; the rest is up to you.
As Ren Fa's only daughter, how could he possibly neglect his own daughter's happiness?
Not to mention, there's a very high chance this son-in-law is Su Feng!
If this marriage goes through, it will be an incredible stroke of luck, a blessing from our ancestors!
When they join forces, they will be virtually invincible.
"Well then, I'll be going now. I have some things to discuss with some old friends, so I'll leave it to you young people to talk about slowly." Ren Fa tactfully got up and left.
Soon, only Ren Tingting and Su Feng remained in the large teahouse.
The atmosphere was somewhat awkward.
Ren Tingting sat there awkwardly, her hands trembling under the table, her heart pounding.
She cautiously looked up, but Su Feng calmly sipped his tea, seemingly without any sign of nervousness.

Chapter 247 Alone Together, Ren Tingting Confesses Her Feelings
“That…Young Master Su…”
Ren Tingting mustered up a lot of courage before she finally spoke up, "Are you really willing to stay with me later?"
She asked cautiously, afraid that any word might displease Su Feng, and then the date her father had painstakingly arranged would be ruined.
Su Feng simply smiled gently, "What's the problem? I happen to be quite interested in watching opera. If Miss Ren doesn't find it boring, we can go together."
As soon as she finished speaking, Ren Tingting nodded vigorously.
Her heart was pounding with excitement; it felt like it was about to jump out of her throat.
This is a date!
