Protect Our Patriarch - Chapter 265

[Chapter 3 Shouzhe!]

…

after the auction.

Wang Shouzhe declined the invitation of Tuoba’s and Tantai’s Xiaozhu, and quickly retreated on the grounds of sending his daughter to the school, so as not to be involved in the vortex of the battle between the two sides.

Of course, this reason is true.

The eldest daughter Wang Liyao is nineteen years old this year, and the eldest son Wang Zongan is sixteen years old, both of whom are old enough to go to the Academy.

Among them, the eldest daughter Wang Liyao is extremely talented and has unlimited future achievements. Wang’s platform is too small for her, and she will definitely take the school route in the future.

In the early years, he had already entrusted his wife Liu Ruolan to write a letter to her named master, Venerable Tian Yuan, who belonged to the Yuanshui Tianhu line of Zifu Academy, informing him of Liyao’s basic situation. And initially reached the intention of accepting apprentices.

This time, Wang Shouzhe was going to send her to the academy by the way.

As for Zong An, although he couldn’t be assigned to the Blood Gu King, he has also bought elixir for him to improve his aptitude over the years.

Last year, Zong An passed the second level of the Shenwu Dynasty trial dungeon and obtained the primary bloodline qualification improvement liquid. Now the bloodline has awakened to the second level, and it is also a “celestial arrogance” when it is placed in the academy.

However, Zong An is the eldest son and is not suitable for the academy route, and Wang Shouzhe did not intend to let him join the academy completely.

Sending him to the past this time is to let him go to the academy to be an ordinary disciple. After a few years, he will gain knowledge and broaden his horizons, so as to prevent him from living under the shadow of the Wang family since he was a child and living as a frog in the well in the future. .

It must be known that the world is huge, and Changningwei is just a corner of it.

As the saying goes, “born in sorrow, die in peace”, only after seeing the greatness of the world can you know how small you are.

Only in this way can we always have a fearful heart and not make some low-level mistakes because of our high self-esteem.

For example, Yin Yuze of Yin Shazong is a typical example.

If he didn’t think too highly of himself and didn’t take Huangfu Huaye and Huangfu Jinhuan in his eyes at all, how could he be killed so easily by the means of his direct disciple of the Yin Sha clan?

…

Half a month later, Wang’s motorcade arrived at the county seat of Longzuo County.

This is Wang Shouzhe’s second visit to Longzuo County. The last time he came was when he sent Luoqiu and Luojing to the palace.

Eleven years later, the city walls of the county town are still as majestic and towering as ever.

The walls are mottled, with the traces of the years, but they are still thick and sturdy, with a heavy sense of oppression, as if they can stand like this for thousands of years, and they will not change for ten thousand years.

However, the Wang family is not what it used to be.

Watching this scene, Wang Shouzhe was also filled with emotion.

The last time I came, the Wang family was only an eighth-grade family, but this time, it was already a dignified seventh-grade family.

There are many aristocratic families, and the status and treatment are worlds apart.

When the Wang family came to the county town, they still needed the main family to pick them up. Now, with the current status of the Wang family, even without the leadership of the main family, they can directly enter the city through the VIP channel and enjoy the respectful attitude and envy of the defenders. eyes.

After handing out the famous post, the soldiers guarding the city immediately put on a warm smile and led Wang’s motorcade to the VIP channel.

Accompanied by the screeching sound of wheels, the convoy slowly entered the city.

After entering the city, Wang Shouzhe and his party did not visit the Longzuo Wang family first, but went to a shop in the South Market first.

This shop has three street-facing facades, and there are seven or eight houses for people to live in. The location is quite good.

Of course, the price is also very good.

Even with Wang’s financial resources, it took a lot of hard work and a lot of money.

The county town is the county town, and the price of a prosperous shop of the same area is more than ten times that of Changningwei.

The three shops plus some houses cost Wang’s nearly 150,000 dry gold.

Fortunately, the shop now sells luxury products such as mirrors, precision glass products, and skin care products produced by Wang’s.

Even if the operating time is short,

The situation has not yet been fully opened, but there are also thousands of dry gold profits every year.

If such expensive shops are used to sell salted fish from the north and the south, they may not be able to get their money back in a hundred years.

And the reason why Wang Shouzhe cost a lot of money to get a foothold in the county town is also for the future development of the Wang family.

As the Wang family becomes stronger and stronger, the number of trips to and from the county town will inevitably increase in the future, so it’s not like going to Longzuo Wang’s house all the time, right?

No matter how good the relationship between the two is, they have already split up after all.

Over time, there are always inconvenient times.

“Fourth brother, younger brother and sister, you are here.”

Seeing that the convoy stopped at the door, Wang Shounuo, who was in his early forties, immediately greeted him from the front.

After meeting Wang Shouzhe and the other people who came with him, he immediately directed the servants to lead the carriage straight into the inner courtyard.

That’s right.

The foothold of the facade of the county town is Wang Shounuo, the third child of the Wang family’s “shou” generation.

Although the current population of the Wang family has gradually become prosperous, the growth of the clan takes time, and there are still not many clansmen who can be independent.

In addition, there are more and more industries in the Wang family, and clansmen are needed everywhere, and the manpower is still very short.

And Wang Shounuo was in his prime, and with the support of his family, he was promoted to a cultivator in the Lingtai realm. It would be more appropriate for him to be responsible for developing the industry in the county town.

Of course, he is the only one here. His children are all staying in the main house, being taken care of by the daughter-in-law of the Shounuo family, and receiving the unified training of the family.

The inner house had already been tidied up, and with the help of many servants and family generals, Wang Shouzhe and his party soon settled down.

This time, the ancestor of Longyan also came with Wang Shouzhe.

After Wang Shounuo met with the ancestor Longyan, the three gathered together for a small meeting.

The ancestor of Longyan came to Longzuo County this time, and did not make much fanfare, so as not to give the impression that the main house was empty.

Of course, Wang Shouzhe didn’t really let the defense of the main house empty.

With his wife Liu Ruolan in charge, if ordinary cultivators in the Heaven and Human Realm dare to go to Ping’an Town, they will probably not have good fruit to eat.

“Third brother, it’s hard work for you to guard the county town’s industry, which leads to separation from your family,” Wang Shouzhe said.

“Fourth brother, what are you talking about?” Wang Shounuo hurriedly returned the salute, “We are all part of the Wang family, and it is appropriate to contribute to the family. My ability is limited and I can’t do big things. It’s hard work? Besides, at the end of the year, I’ll rush back with a horse and whip, and it will only take eight or nine days.”

“When the family is younger and older, I’ll let them come over to work with the third brother.” Wang Shouzhe said, “With them here to take care of you, you can go back every three or four months to accompany your family. ”

Any clan expatriate will not send all his small family out.

For example, send his wife and children over to live together, etc.

Because doing this, although they can reunite their family, over time, it will gradually lose the family cohesion and centripetal force.

If everyone works outside as a small family, the whole family will be a mess within a hundred years.

“It doesn’t matter.” Wang Shounuo said, “The development of the family is not easy. I don’t know how many ancestors of the clan have paid the price with their lives. I just do some internal affairs for the family, fourth brother, don’t worry about it.”

Hearing this, Wang Shouzhe was also a little emotional.

In this world of aristocratic families, many people’s family concepts and ideas are very different from those of modern Chinese people.

Like Wang Shounuo, his wife and children are all in the main house, and the two places are separated for a whole year. In Wang Shounuo’s view, it is a normal thing. .

And his daughter-in-law and children also felt that as long as the family needed it, it was a matter of course.

The rest of the tribe didn’t feel anything abnormal.

Only Wang Shouzhe, who used to be a “modern man”, would feel a little ashamed of Shounuo and his wife and children.

“Let’s not talk about it beforehand, let’s talk about other things.” Wang Shouzhe sat down with Longyan’s ancestor and Wang Shounuo and said, “You have been collecting news about the county town for the past two years, which is quite effective. You talk first. Tell me, how is the situation of the Longzuo Wang clan?”

This time, the ancestors of Zhou Bo still couldn’t get away, only the patriarch and the elders went to the Wang family in a low-key manner and sent a congratulatory gift.

Then they hurried back.

Although they didn’t say anything, Wang Shouzhe could guess that the Longzuo Wang family must be in trouble.

It’s just that the other party seems to be unwilling to involve the Changning Wang Clan, so he has been covering it up, trying to solve it on his own.

However, the Changning Wang clan and the Longzuo Wang clan are in the same spirit. Not only did they receive a lot of help from the Longzuo Wang clan at the beginning, but during the battle of Luoying Gorge a few years ago, the ancestor of Zhou Bo was even more willing to take risks and personally help to deal with it. Hua Ye’s ancestor did not receive any payment afterwards.

With this friendship, Wang Shouzhe naturally couldn’t just watch them get into trouble and just pretend he didn’t know anything.

“Fourth brother is not bad, the Longzuo Wang clan is indeed in trouble.” Hearing Wang Shouzhe mentioning this, Wang Shounuo’s face suddenly straightened, “I tried to find someone to talk about it, and through the network established in the past two years. The relationship was carefully inquired, and I finally found out part of the truth. This is how it happened…”

Through Wang Shounuo’s narration, Wang Shouzhe gradually understood the ins and outs of the matter.

The Longzuo Wang family, as an old-fashioned family, was at its strongest when it was a fifth-grade family.

It’s just that due to the constant decline over the years, the ancestral property has gradually been lost. Now, apart from the main house that has not been moved and the few remaining pavements, there are also several farms that are profitable outside the county seat.

In recent years, after listening to Wang Shouzhe’s suggestion, the Longzuo Wang family vacated part of the real estate in the main house and managed the “Zifu Palace” with heart, gradually accumulating a lot of wealth, and gradually cultivated a second heaven. Human realm, re-emerge, and restore Zu Yao’s mind.

When they were cleaning up the family’s previous resistance agreement, they discovered that there was a land lease agreement 330 years ago, which actually expired 30 years ago.

Therefore, the ancestor of Zhou Bo tried to take back the ancestral fields of about 20,000 mu.

“But the other party kept pushing the blame in every possible way until the conflict broke out between the two sides. Now the friction between the Long Zuo Wang Clan and the family has intensified, and the contradictions are getting deeper and deeper. If this continues, the Long Zuo Wang Clan may suffer a loss. Fourth brother, I am here. The foundation of the county town is too shallow, and the details cannot be detected, but the strength of the other family is not weak, there should be an ancestor in the middle stage of heaven and human realm and an ancestor in the early stage of heaven and human realm.

“I understand.” Wang Shouzhe nodded. “The other party should only be a strong seventh-rank family. If it has reached the sixth-rank family, Zhou Bo’s ancestors would not dare to hold grudges with others.”

The strong seventh-grade family is naturally the top family in Nanliuwei, even the Changning Wang family is unwilling to be an enemy.

However, in the county town where aristocratic families gather, the strong seventh-rank is definitely not the top, it can only be regarded as not slippery, there are still many stronger than them.

Ancestor Longyan had been listening quietly before, but at this moment, a stern light flashed across her eyes: “Hmph~ That family is so bullying, it’s really hateful. Shouzhe, Longzuo Wang’s family treats us well, You must think of a way for the ancestor of Zhou Bo in this matter.”

“Old Ancestor, don’t worry.” Wang Shouzhe cupped his hands and said, “This time, it was planned to enter the county to assist the Longzuo Wang clan. However, because our Changning Wang clan has a shallow foundation in the county city, the information is not yet detailed. I have to ask my friends to find out.”

…

An hour later, the headquarters of Baiwei Pavilion.

In a box on the third floor, Wang Shouzhe was holding a tea cup and sipping his tea leisurely.

This box is elegantly decorated, with famous paintings and calligraphy hanging on the wall, sandalwood curling around, gauze curtains rolling, and the sound of extravagant silk and bamboo can be heard from far downstairs, which is indescribably leisurely.

Even if there is no delicious food, just the decoration and the atmosphere are enough to make people linger.

Even the fragrant tea used for entertaining guests has a long aftertaste and the fragrance of the tea is overflowing, which is no worse than that of Wang’s own use.

Baiwei Pavilion has been passed down for thousands of years, and it really has something.

Just as Wang Shouzhe was thinking.

Suddenly.

A graceful woman lifted the curtain and walked in.

She was wearing a light crimson gauze, and walked over. The flowing skirt swayed slightly with her pace, showing a swaying figure, and the swaying was naturally amorous.

That is the style of the forehead that only married women have, mature and charming, especially the pair of winking eyes, which are even more graceful and charming.

Wang Shouzhe raised his eyes and smiled suddenly: “Mrs. Bilian won’t be here for a long time, Shouzhe thought she was not ready to see me anymore.”

“The dignified and dignified head of Ning Wang’s family, how dare he not see his concubine? It’s really rare that the head of the Shouzhe family is willing to come to find my old acquaintance~” Mrs. Bilian glanced behind Wang Shouzhe with her beautiful eyes. Why, your eldest niece, who can eat, didn’t come with you?”

Obviously, Wang Lici left a very deep impression on her back then.

The money spent on one meal for her was enough to treat others for ten meals.

“She and Shizun traveled and practiced together. I haven’t seen her for many years. She didn’t come back to participate in this family feast.” Wang Shouzhe took a sip from the tea cup, and said with a leisurely smile, ” If Mrs. Bilian misses her and waits for her to come back from her experience, I will let her come and stay with her for a while.”

Hearing this, Mrs. Bilian, who had just sat down, shook her wrist and almost dropped the teacup she had just brought to her hand.

She rolled her eyes at Wang Shouzhe angrily: “Ghosts will miss her. For such an excellent child, you Wang family should support yourself~~ Tell me, what’s the matter with me this time? For you are so handsome and handsome. Go, as long as things are not too difficult to handle, the concubine will do it for you.”

Wang Shouzhe really had something to do here, so he didn’t treat her politely when he heard the words, and asked directly, “Does Madam know about the Long Zuozhang clan?”

“The Zhang family? So you came for this.” Mrs. Bilian frowned slightly. “I heard that the Zhang family and the Wang family have some quarrels. In recent years, due to industrial disputes, there have been many conflicts.”

The Baiwei Pavilion she runs is a thousand-year-old brand with a wide network of contacts, especially the troubles in this county, few can hide from her.

“Although the Zhang family is not strong, it is also an old-fashioned family that has risen for six or seven hundred years. Its network of connections is much stronger than the recent decline of the Longzuo Wang family. Even I have some friendship with the Yuwen family. In terms of relationship and confidence, it is you Changning Wang who is stronger.” Mrs. Bilian glanced at Wang Shouzhe with a smile, “If you need it, your concubine can come forward to mediate and resolve the rift between Zhang and Wang.”

“Mediation?” Wang Shouzhe shook his head, “Thank you Madam for your kindness. But how could Mrs. Zhang be willing to spit out the fat in her stomach? With Madam’s warning, I understood what to do. UU Reading www. Thank you sonicmtl.com for today’s matter, Madam, and Shouzhe is leaving.”

After that, he put down the tea cup and prepared to leave.

“and many more.”

Mrs. Bilian was not ready to let him go.

“The concubine helped you, you can’t just pat your butt and leave? Right now, the concubine also has an indescribable difficulty, and I need your help. After all, the owner of the Shouzhe family is so handsome, So excellent…”

While speaking, she looked at Wang Shouzhe up and down with a pair of beautiful eyes, and the brilliance in her eyes seemed to mean something.

this……

Wang Shouzhe was horrified by her, and he thought to himself that this Mrs. Bilian would not be a widow for too long. Seeing that he was so handsome, what evil thoughts were moved?

He was embarrassed and hurriedly pretended to drink tea: “Madam, in fact, I look very ordinary…”

“Do you believe the words of Patriarch Shouzhe yourself?” Mrs. Bilian gave him a sideways look, “Like Patriarch Shouzhe, such a man of Yuan Ting Yuezhi, who is extremely immortal, I am afraid that even if you search through Longzuo County, you will not be able to find it. a few.”

“That… But, my wife and I are not familiar yet. Since it’s hard to tell, my wife should stop talking and say goodbye.”

Wang Shouzhe coughed twice, immediately smeared oil on the soles of his feet, got up and left.

Mrs. Bilian was shaking with anger and cold: “Good you Wang Shouzhe! When you asked Mrs. Ben for help, you sent a message, and Mrs. Ben pushed an important guest to see you. Now Mrs. Ben wants you to do a favor, but you are with me. Say we don’t know each other? Do you really think this lady is easy to bully?!”

“No, Mrs. Ben has endured that matter for a long time. Only an excellent and handsome man like you can solve it. The price is 50,000 dry gold!”

“What?”

Wang Shouzhe staggered and almost fell to the ground.

No, he was smashed by the beauty with money again?

Isn’t he just handsome?

Is it too good?

How can life be so hard?
