The Rebirth of the Eternal Caliphate

C.51

Sunday morning, Zhou Tianhao's vehicle was parked right at the entrance of the Lake Side Community.

Besides Chen Fan, Master Guo and Zhou Tianhao, A'Biao and ten other bodyguards also came along. They drive a total of five cars. A'Biao was driving the car where Chen Fan and Zhou Tianhao were.

"Are we going to Dong Jiang Province?" Chen Fan asked curiously.

"Yes, the land there is vast, and hence our events are always held in Dong Jiang Province," Zhou Tianhao explained. "Qin Yang County is a border town between Dong Jiang Province and Hu Dong Province. The people there admired martial arts. Every year around this time, the villagers would host a wrestling competition.

"Every year around this time, people from all other villages and districts would flock to join the competition. What a beautiful sight to behold," Zhou Tianhao said longingly. "We have chosen this time to host our Martial Arts Tournament in honor of their traditions.

"In addition to the business aspect, this tournament is a competition for the best martial artists. There would be many rich people from Dong Jiang Province coming to watch the tournament.

"The "huge crowds of exciting tournaments to the country help the local economy significantly. After many years, it has become one of the main sources of income for the local people."

“I understand.” Chen Fan nodded.

Chu Zhou City was only two hours away from Dong Jiang Province. As soon as they drove across the border, the scenery outside the car window changed drastically.

Chu Zhou City is located in the northern part of the coastal province: Hu Dong, and therefore its economy is not as developed as the cities in the south. Dong Jiang Province was even less developed due to its locked location. From the narrow gravel roads to the shanty huts along the side of the road, Chen Fan felt that the quality of life here in this small area was five years behind Chu Zhou city.

As for Qin Yang County, Chen Fan found it very similar to the countryside he visited when he was a child. Time seems to have stopped here, and everything seems exactly like they were in the 80s

As soon as they entered Qin Yang County, they pulled over beside the three-story luxury building.

"Boss Zhou, you're finally here!" Someone was waiting for them at the entrance.

“Mr Chen, Mr. Guo, this is Boss Zhang From Qin Yang County.” Zhou Tianhao introduced the homeowner lazily.

"Yes my. Don't call me boss. Just call me Xiao Zhang." Boss Zhang hurried to reply.

To a local noble from a small village, Zhou Tianhao was considered a powerful king. Therefore, Boss Zhang licked it to get his help. Even a small favor from Zhou Tianhao would be so beneficial to the local nobles that he would laugh in his dreams.

"Is this Mr Chen?"

Boss Zhang glanced at Zhou Tianhao's entourage, and he quickly looked at Chen Fan and noticed the authority the boy had commanded.

"Yes. Master Chen is a friend of Third Master," Zhou Tianhao said thinly.

Excitement flashed across Boss Zhang's face. He reached out both hands and pumped Chen Fan's hands vigorously. "Geez! Third Master's Friend! I'm so honored!" Find the official novel in , faster updates, better experience , Please click www. .com to visit.

The Wei Family was a household name throughout China, and as such, Boss Zhang was familiar with Third Master and his power.

Seeing how young Chen Fan was, Boss Zhang was even more convinced that Chen Fan was from a prestigious family. Otherwise, he would not be friends with Third Master. So thinking, Boss Zhang's smile widened and became even more enthusiastic to please Chen Fan.

"This is the first time Mr. Chen has visited your village, please take care of him," Zhou Tianhao said.

"You can count on me!" Vice Mayor Zhang pondered his chest and announced.

As soon as they entered the three-story building, Chen Fan was greeted by some attractive young girls. The beauty of their youth was clearly visible on their smooth face that was without makeup.

While waiting, Chen Fan started a short conversation with him.

His name was A'Xiu, and he came from a large family and had many brothers. His parents could not afford to pay all the children for college, and therefore, A'Xiu was forced to quit school since Junior High. Because of his good looks, he was hired by the local government to be a waiter at a local government-owned hotel.

After lunch, Chen Fan suggested taking a walk around the village and exploring.

Boss Zhang hurriedly warned him that the local Qin Yang residents were quite polite and hot-tempered. If he walked alone, the locals would probably look at him while staring. He suggested Chen Fan take A'Xiu with him. Locals are less likely to cause problems if they see one of them among the visitors.

As he offered his advice, Boss Zhang glanced at A'Xiu understandingly.

A'Xiu blushed and then he lowered his head.

The tournament lasted for several days, and only on the last day would the audience witness the competition among the bosses of the Jiang Bei Region. After all, only the richest businessmen who could afford the best fighters would survive to the end.

Rich men and women who could afford tickets flocked to the county to see the match on the final day.

As Chen Fan walked the streets of the small village, he saw a group of visitors passing by him on many occasions. Their delicate clothes and pale skin are a sign that they are from the city and one day have never worked in the fields.

Among the visitors of this city, Chen Fan saw a newlywed couple, a schoolmate, and a beer-bellied middle-aged man walking beside their young mistress with a group of bodyguards following them. They all came to see the tournament.

"What's the tournament schedule like?"

Chen Fan asked.

A'Xiu was a shy girl; she spoke softly, "These tournaments are usually held at night. The stage is used by locals for their wrestling competitions. After the tournament, we had a bonfire party every night.

"The wrestling competition was just for fun, and hence, the rewards were not very high.

"But the tournament is the real one. The participants are not ordinary fighters."

After he said that, his eyes lost focus for a moment.

He wanted to get out of this village and go study in the city, get a job and marry a city man. However, since she is a girl and her grades are not bragging, her family has decided to prioritize her brother's education and let the girls out of school.

Chen Fan noticed his sudden silence. He glanced at her indifferently.

After living for five hundred years, Chen Fan became insensitive to the suffering of mankind. He knew that time would wash away everything, so why should he care about humans and their problems. If he was a sixteen year old boy, he would feel very sad for the girl and would give her a ticket out of the small town right then and there.

A'Xiu quickly gathered himself together and led Chen Fan to another part of the village.

As they walked on the main street of the city, a large group of people headed in the opposite direction. Their confident and haughty steps showed the great strength of their leader. In the middle of the group, Chen Fan looked at Xu Ao.

The group blocked the road, and Chen Fan had to stop.

After Xu Ao noticed Chen Fan, he paused for a moment and looked at the boy with a frown.

"Why are you here?"
