In fact, when Shen Canghai said that the ore loaded on these trucks that Shen Ye brought back was the legendary black gold, the rest of the Shen family already understood in their hearts that this matter was about Shen Ye. There is no doubt that the result of the bet on the position of the next head of the family will be won by Dafang. Since the Shen family itself is doing business with the Liuli Kingdom in the Western Regions, the people of the Shen family naturally understand it better than the people of other families. What is the value of black gold?

In terms of ornamental value, black gold is far inferior to glazed stones, because black gold looks like the most common ore, and it is not eye-catching among the many ores in the world, while glazed stones can be said to be amazing just from the appearance. It is magnificent. Some people buy glazed stones not to make weapons and equipment, but just for decoration.

But when it comes to practical value, black gold has to be compared with glazed stones, because the biggest function of glazed stones produced in the glazed country is to adjust the color of weapons and equipment. Glazed stones come in various colors. , when making weapons, you only need to put the glazed stones into them, and you can make the weapons and equipment the color you want.

However, apart from being able to change the color of weapons and equipment, glazed stones have no other functions, so they are also regarded as flashy by people in the world. Most of the people who spend money to buy glazed stones are the disciples of some sects and big families. , most of these people are wealthy and like to show their uniqueness, so glazed stones are very popular among these children.

However, although black gold looks like a dark mass on the surface, its effectiveness is much more powerful than that of glazed stones. When you put black gold into it when making weapons and equipment, black gold can greatly improve the effectiveness of the weapons and equipment you want to build. Quality, weapons mixed with black gold will become sharper, and protective gear mixed with black gold will be stronger. Therefore, it is obvious that the value of black gold is much higher than that of glazed stones!

However, it is precisely because of this that the business of black gold will be more satisfactory than the business of glazed and rare stones, which will arouse the jealousy of others. Large sects and aristocratic families have ores that are more effective than black gold, so naturally they will not be interested in black gold, but Some middle-class families are extremely greedy for black gold. After all, those ores that are more effective than black gold are not their turn to use.

Therefore, these families are coveting black gold. They sent many people to the Black Country in the beginning to get the right to buy and sell black gold. Unfortunately, they all suffered in the Black Country. But if it was just like this, it would not matter. After all, no one has the right to buy and sell black gold, but now that Shen Ye has brought the right to buy and sell black gold back to the Shen family, it is naturally equivalent to bringing trouble back to the Shen family.

So will the Shen family choose to give up black gold because of these potential troubles? Anyone with a normal mind would not have such an idea. Being in the world is a knife-edge licking blood, not to mention the trouble caused by black gold, but The benefits and connections it brings are even greater.

Besides, when Shen Canghai brought the glazed stones back to Changping Mansion from the Glazed Kingdom, it was not that he had not been targeted by other family forces. Faced with this situation, Shen Canghai's response was quite simple, that is, fight!

Beat the other party until they no longer dare to be jealous of you, beat the other party until they no longer dare to be jealous of you. In this world, some people are reasonable and some are unreasonable, but whether they are reasonable people or unreasonable people, they all understand that in this world In the arena, strength is the greatest truth!

Although Shen Canghai's current physical condition can no longer sustain him for long, the Shen family still has Shen Fu, a master in the middle stage of the Xiantian realm, as well as six innates: Shen Mingren, Shen Mingyi, Shen Mingli, Wang Gang, Shen Zhizhong and Shen Ye. The warriors at the early stage of the realm are enough to deal with those family forces who covet the black gold.

So after seeing that these ores are really genuine black gold, the people in the Shen family have already acquiesced that Shen Mingren will become the next head of the Shen family. Shen Canghai, who was once worried about his brother Qianqiang, was instantly in front of these genuine black gold. Fall apart, some people may not care about brotherhood, but no one will care about interests, especially such terrifying interests as black gold!

The black gold Shen Ye brought back this time was much less than the glazed stones Shen Mingren brought back, but it was almost the same as the glazed stones brought back by the Shen family in the past. Therefore, the people in these rooms of the Shen family You only need to estimate it in your mind to figure out how much silver the black gold in front of you is worth!

This amount of silver is definitely a terrifying figure for the Shen family, and this does not include the connections made because of black gold. Although the black gold business belongs to the Dafang lineage, as long as the entire Shen family becomes stronger because of this, Their business will naturally increase as a result.

The only exception that made them exception was that Shen Canghai would announce Shen Mingren as the next head of the Shen family so directly. After all, there is still nearly a month before the gambling game ends. Who can guarantee it? Erfang doesn’t have any trump card to bring back the dead?

Although almost everyone knows that the second room can hide such a pill recipe and only take it out in this gambling game, it is already hidden very deep. If you want them to take out some other good things, I am afraid it will be a bit hard.

But because they were concerned about the second wife's face, they still thought that Shen Canghai would choose to wait until the end before announcing the result. However, they did not expect that although Shen Canghai was old, his heart was not old, and his style of doing things was still so vigorous and resolute.

And when they heard the news announced by Shen Canghai, everyone in the big room couldn't help but cheer. Shen Ye also hugged Liu Susu again. Her trip to the Black Country for trade was extremely difficult. The danger is that if it weren't for Wei Wuji's presence, she would have been left in the Black Kingdom as a hostage demanding ransom.

Taking such a big risk, what was the purpose of everything Shen Ye did? Was it not for his father Shen Mingren to get what originally belonged to him, the throne of the head of the Shen family, and now that his father could finally get what he wanted? Hopefully, Shen Ye would also cry with joy.

Compared with the master and servant, who were all cheering and cheering, Wei Wuji behaved very calmly. Although he and Shen Yeqing liked each other, they were not officially married yet, so he could not be regarded as a member of the Shen family's eldest family. What's more, even if Shen Mingren becomes the head of the Shen family, what does it have to do with Wei Wuji? How could Wei Wuji be the kind of person who relies on the power of others to survive?

The same thing that was different from the other people in the big room was Shen Mingren. He was not as elated as the others. He was just simply very excited, and his whole body was trembling slightly with excitement.

He is the eldest son of Shen Canghai, and he should have been the head of the Shen family. However, due to his illness, he was unable to give birth to a boy, which led to each of his brothers and sisters eyeing the throne of the head of the family.

If he was just a playboy, that would be fine, but his martial arts level was not inferior to that of his two younger brothers, and his ability to manage business was far beyond the others. He would not be willing to hand over his position as the head of the family just like this, and Now he can finally get that rightfully and legitimately, something that has been his since he was born!

People from the other three rooms of the Shen family also came over to congratulate Shen Mingren and told him to lead the Shen family to prosperity in the future. However, in this joyous atmosphere, Shen Mingyue grabbed Shen Zhizhong's arm with both hands and gritted his teeth and said: "I don't accept it. There is still a month until the end of the bet. Why do you declare Shen Mingren the winner like this? How do you know that I will never have a chance to come back?"

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly fell silent because of Shen Mingyue's words. Shen Canghai looked at Shen Mingyue faintly and sighed: "Mingyue, I know you have been competitive since you were a child, and I also know that you think you are capable of being a good person. As the head of the Shen family, your eldest brother truly won this bet.

I don’t believe you don’t know the value of these black golds. The profits they can bring are far greater than the pills you have been hiding in your hands before. The only reason why I declare your brother the winner now is because I don’t want to worry about it later. You have been living in this kind of mood for a month. It would be good for you, your eldest brother, and the entire Shen family to come out earlier.

Besides, even if your eldest brother wins this bet, the elixir business will still be controlled by your second wife. No matter whether the head of the Shen family is me or your eldest brother, there will be no change in this.

Besides, Zhizhong is only twenty-three years old and is already an innate warrior. There is no guarantee that he will not make the same choice as me in the future. And since he is not the head of the Shen family, he can naturally make different choices from me. If you are willing to gamble, you must admit defeat, you should also know this sentence Mingyue."

What Shen Canghai said made sense. Shen Mingyue's face showed a look of struggle when he heard the words. At this time, Shen Zhizhong reached out and patted Shen Mingyue's hands gently, and said gently: "Mother, Grandpa is right. We have indeed lost this bet. If you are willing to gamble, you must admit defeat. This is the rule of the game. You should stop being frozen. This is not good for everyone."

Hearing Shen Zhizhong's consolation, Shen Mingyue's expression changed several times, and she slowly exhaled a breath and said: "Okay, since you said so, Zhizhong, I won't fight with your uncle anymore. This bet is I lost, second sister congratulates big brother."

Seeing Shen Mingyue admitting defeat to him personally, Shen Mingren's body, which was already trembling with excitement, could not help but become even bigger, and he uttered several good words in succession. Liu Susu was afraid that Shen Mingren would be too excited, so she walked to him to help him Ease your mood.

With Shen Mingyue admitting defeat, no one objected to Shen Mingren inheriting the position of head of the Shen family. So these days, Shen Canghai also took Shen Mingren to meet his old friends in order to expand his connections. The relationship is left to Shen Mingren.

For Shen Canghai to finally choose his heir, these old friends of his were naturally happy for him, so they all promised that if something happened to Shen Canghai, they would continue to take care of Shen Mingren and the Shen family.

It's just that this news is not good news for some forces in Changping Mansion. After all, these forces have been looking forward to Shen Canghai's death. The five brothers and sisters of the Shen family started fighting among themselves so that they could have a chance. He took advantage of the opportunity and swallowed up the entire Shen family.

As a result, after they finally managed to survive until Shen Canghai's body was obviously on the verge of death, Shen Mingren became the heir to the Shen family, which was obviously unacceptable to them for a while.

So these forces also sent people to test the voices of other members of the Shen family, only to find that the other members of the Shen family were not dissatisfied at all with Shen Mingren's succession as the head of the Shen family. This made their plan to fan the flames once again come to nothing. .

The thing that frightened them the most was that the Shen family actually obtained the right to buy and sell black gold from the Black Country. As soon as the black gold came out, all the small and medium-sized forces in Yongzhou rushed to Changping Mansion, just to get the black gold from the Shen family. , these black gold not only brought huge benefits to the Shen family, but also opened up countless connections to the Shen family, making other forces in Changping Mansion extremely jealous, but no matter how jealous they are, they will not take any action now against the Shen family. All actions should be taken after Shen Canghai's death.

Unknowingly, the time has come to October 15th. Wei Wuji locked the door tightly and used various furniture to block the door. Unless the opponent came up and smashed the door directly with weapons or internal force, otherwise the first blow would be It is absolutely impossible to open this door, and with this buffer time, it is enough for Wei Wuji to put the bamboo slips into his body. Yes, it is time for the bamboo slips to teach him martial arts!

After returning to the Shen family, Wei Wuji obviously could no longer live in the same room as Shen Ye. After all, the two were not married yet, and they could be said to be informal children when walking outside. The Shen family had a big business and no shortage of houses, so how could they live together again? Let two people live together?

However, because Wei Wuji helped Shen Ye get back the black gold from the Black Kingdom, and his deeds in the Black Kingdom were also told to Shen Mingren and Shen Canghai by Shen Ye, Wei Wuji's residence in the Shen family was much larger than before. .

Shen Canghai even wanted to give Wei Wuji another bottle of Qi Gathering Pill, but when he learned that Wei Wuji had reached the peak of the Houtian Realm and the Qi Gathering Pill had no effect on him, he had to give up temporarily.

This time Wei Wuji only hopes that the bamboo slips can give him a copy of Xuan-level body-training techniques. After all, no matter how strong Wei Wuji is, the limitations of the martial arts realm are also here. He can cross the border to fight against the enemy, but he cannot cross the border to fight against the enemy without limit. , and his acquired martial arts realm is the biggest constraint on him. If he steps into the innate realm, the enemies he can deal with will naturally become stronger.

What's more, Wei Wuji now has no shortage of martial arts skills to use. He has the Xuan-level martial arts technique [Powerful Vajra Fist], and [Powerful Vajra Fist] has also been condensed into a "pseudo-dharma form" by him. He also has the earth-level martial arts skill [Open Heaven] to protect the body. Breaking the ground and training the arms].

Therefore, for the time being, Wei Wuji is not that eager for martial arts. Of course, if Zhu Jian insists on giving him martial arts, it would be better to give him a martial art such as body skills or light skills. He only has some shortcomings in this area now, and he can It would be good to make up for it.

No matter what Wei Wuji thought, the familiar light on the bamboo slips emerged again, and the words on it also twisted and moved again.

After a while, the words on the bamboo slips gradually stabilized and finally condensed into shape again. Wei Wuji looked carefully and saw a line of large characters written on the top of the bamboo slips:
Chapter completed!
