Shangguan Ruowen and Shangguan Ruowu could almost think of what happened next with their toes.
No wonder Xu Zixiong had recently heard that Xu Zixiong had taken over the power of the Xu Family Miaoshan Hall. It turned out that he used the method he said to rob and turn the entire south of the city into his own in just half a month. Such achievements no matter where he is.
Every family deserves to be celebrated and praised.
I hate that my grandfather doesn't let me do it. If I can achieve something, there is no need to look at Shangguan Ruomeng's face every day.
"Alas... Time is not with me..." Shangguan Ruowen let out a long sigh, picked up the wine glass and drank it.
Shangguan Ruowu was also filled with resentment and dissatisfaction. The two brothers were born half an hour apart. Although they only looked half-a-dozen similar in appearance, their bones were filled with proud blood. With a woman on top of their head, they couldn't care less.
It will feel better.
Even if Shangguan Ruomeng is their eldest sister, she is a woman after all.
The Shangguan family needs a woman to support it. Doesn't it mean that the men of my Shangguan family are incompetent?
Chen Hongjie winked at Xu Zixiong, and Xu Zixiong smiled slightly: "Drinking to drown one's sorrows is never the answer. To solve the problem, we need to start from the root."
"The root cause?" How could Shangguan Ruowen not understand what Xu Zixiong meant, and said with a wry smile: "We had a chance last time, brother Zixiong, if you hadn't been gentle, the Shangguan family would have been in the hands of our brothers now."
Shangguan Ruowu nodded angrily: "Yes, if Feng Jueyu doesn't die, the eldest sister will never remarry. Grandpa said we are incompetent, but in fact he doesn't give us a chance at all. To solve this matter, we have to start with Feng Jueyu.
"
"How can that loser be so lucky?"
Xu Zixiong knocked on the table lightly, and he was also very puzzled. He did not strike lightly that day. Logically speaking, with his almost perfect cultivation in the True Martial Realm, even if he did not want people to know that it was a martial artist, those two strikes were enough.
Send Feng Jueyu to see the King of Hell.
By then, the Shangguan family will definitely be in chaos. It won't take long before Shangguan Lingyun and Shangguan Tenglong will worry about their daughter's life-long affairs. Then they will use Shangguan Ruowen and Shangguan Ruowu to force Shangguan Ruomeng to step down. When the power of the Shangguan family is in their hands,
With the hands of these two losers, it would not be difficult for them to swallow up the Shangguan family.
After going around in such a big circle, no one knew that Xu Zixiong's purpose was to benefit the entire Shangguan family's property in Tiannan Kingdom. The poison in his heart was far beyond what he could possess at his current age.
Poor Feng Da Killer still doesn't know that he has become a pawn in Xu Zixiong's plan to annex the Shangguan family and use his death to influence the appointment of the Shangguan family's leader.
But who is Xu Zixiong? He did do it himself last time, but after all, it was because he drank two more drinks that he lost control for a while, and because the two Shangguan brothers were too afraid to take action, they impulsively slapped Feng Jueyu.
Two bricks.
After sobering up, Xu Zixiong felt regretful in his intestines. Others may not know it, but he and Chen Hongjie understood the importance of Feng Jueyu in Shangguan Lingyun's heart. At last, Feng Jueyu was not dead. Otherwise, Shangguan Lingyun's influence in Tiannan Kingdom
Li, it's already been a big commotion.
Therefore, even if the facts and evidence were put in front of him, Xu Zixiong would not admit it.
After hearing this, Xu Zixiong pretended to be surprised and said displeasedly: "Brother Ruowen, where did you start? What did I do last time? Why did you start so lightly? Why can't I understand?"
Shangguan Ruowen was stunned for a moment, feeling dissatisfied. Just pretend, you're just pretending, didn't you encourage us to attack Feng Jueyu last time? We didn't agree, but you did it yourself, and now you don't admit it? Are you afraid?
It's really not a thing.
Chen Hongjie and Xu Zixiong were on the same page, and he quickly helped: "Yes, last time Brother Zixiong and I left first, nothing happened. Brother Ruowen, this matter is big or small, don't talk nonsense."
Chen Hongjie clicked on Shangguan Ruowen, which seemed to mean that you are also an insider in what we are doing, and no one can run away if anything happens.
Although Shangguan Ruowen was eager to advance, he was not stupid. After hearing this, his heart suddenly sank to the bottom: "That's right, if grandpa finds out, let alone the power of the Shangguan family, he may eat me alive, but we can't tell anyone about this.
.”
Thinking of this, Shangguan Ruowen quickly responded: "Haha, I drank too much that day and was dazzled. Brother Zixiong, please don't take it off. Oh, by the way, I haven't congratulated Brother Zixiong yet. This time, the shopkeeper of Chun Tang
But many people are thinking about it. Brother Zixiong is young and promising, and he is much better than my brother. I need Brother Zixiong to give me more advice and suggestions in the future."
Xu Zixiong laughed loudly and raised his glass: "You're welcome, dear brother. In fact, how can a businessman be a businessman if he is not ruthless? As long as the two worthy brothers remember that profit is the first priority in everything, it will not be difficult to achieve success."
"Wanshili is the leader?" Brother Shangguan looked suddenly enlightened after hearing this: "Brother Zixiong is very impressed and admires me. So, in a short time, the Miaoshantang family will be the only one in the south of the city?"
Chen Hongjie praised him repeatedly: "Of course, dear brother, hurry up and prepare a generous gift."
Xu Zixiong shook his head and sighed. In fact, he didn't know how good his mood was, but on the surface he still pretended to be humble and said: "You can't say that. If we haven't got Jishifang yet, how can we be the only one?"
"It's almost here." Chen Hongjie said.
"Haha." Xu Zixiong stopped being modest and said immediately: "Then I accept Brother Chen's kind words. I will treat you all to a banquet."
"That's, that's..."
The four of them exchanged cups and were about to drink. At this time, an entourage walked in from outside, came to Xu Zixiong and walked straight to him, crawling over and said a few words in his ear.
When the entourage finished speaking, Xu Zixiong's face suddenly turned ashen, and his eyebrows suddenly furrowed: "What? It's haunted?"
The attendant said nothing and nodded silently.
Chen Hongjie, Shangguan Ruowen, and Shangguan Ruowu also heard the word "haunted" from Xu Zixiong and couldn't help but be stunned: "Brother Zixiong, what happened?"
Xu Zixiong gritted his teeth and said, "Jishifang is haunted."
As soon as these words came out, the three of them shuddered.
These days, feudal superstition and the theory of ghosts and gods are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Businessmen, in particular, pay the most attention to the quality of Feng Shui. If there are unclean things in the land they choose, it is a big taboo for businessmen. No matter how good the geographical location is, it will not matter.
It will be used for shops.
Xu Zixiong spent all his efforts to eliminate Jishifang from the south of the city. On the one hand, he wanted to monopolize the entire medicinal material market in the south of the city. On the other hand, because there were countless poor people around Jishifang, the geographical location couldn't be better.
But when he heard that it was haunted, Xu Zixiong had a suspicion in his mind.
Chen Hongjie thought for a while and said: "In all these years, I have never heard that there is a ghost in Jishifang. This is something strange. Brother Zixiong, why don't you go there."
Xu Zixiong also meant the same thing. The money sent by the Yamen was more than seventy taels, and it had already been handed over, so the matter was done very smoothly. If Jishifang was haunted, he would never ask for it again, and the money had never been paid.
The water floated.
"Okay, let's go take a look."
"Let's go too." Shangguan Ruowen and Shangguan Ruowu also stood up. Xu Zixiong didn't say much and took the lead and rushed out of Baiwei Building.
…
Riding the Xu family's luxurious carriage, they rushed to the south of the city. Before they reached the gate of Jishifang, Xu Zixiong and others saw a lot of people gathered not far away at the intersection of the street. At a glance, there were at least a hundred people.
Everyone hid in fear and looked in the direction of Jishifang from a distance.
After a few people got off the carriage and walked a few steps, they felt that the surrounding air was a bit cold. The cold weather in late March has not completely dissipated, especially at night. It is even colder, but it is not that cold.
The four of them don't wear much, but they wear a lot. They can usually survive the winter, but it's particularly cold tonight, and they feel like they're feeling cold from the inside out.
"Why is it so cold?" Shangguan Ruowu tightened his cloak and breathed out, unexpectedly seeing the cold air.
Xu Zixiong's face immediately darkened. The cold weather was not the main reason. As a master of the True Martial Realm, he could feel the special aura permeating the air. This was an extremely strong resentment and death aura that made people's scalp explode and made their hair stand on end.
Several people quickened their pace and came to the outskirts of the crowd. Xu Zixiong, who was always cautious, did not go deep, but listened to the nearby residents whispering to themselves on the outskirts of the crowd.
"What's going on? Why is Lao Li's house haunted?"
"You don't know? Let me tell you, I heard that Dr. Li Tou died a while ago and brought out the old ghosts of the Li family."
The crowd around them booed: "Isn't that matter solved? Besides, if you want to pay with your life, you have to die to pay for it. What happened to the old Li family's wronged souls?"
"What do you know?" A woman with a chubby body and an inhuman body chewed her tongue and said, "You still don't know Lao Li Tou's medical skills? How can you cure a dead person? I heard that the damn ghost had an incurable disease in the first place, but later he found out that he
There is no doubt that he will die, and he came to Lao Li’s house specifically for the purpose of defrauding money.”
"Cheating money?" When Xu Zixiong heard this, his expression suddenly changed, and he scolded the gossiping woman in his heart.
For the sake of Jishifang, Xu Zixiong did use some tricks. He and this woman were very close to each other. Which bastard spread the news?
Looking into the crowd, Xu Zixiong's face turned greener and greener. He was afraid of what might happen. In the crowd, all the policemen from the Tiannanfutai Yamen had arrived. There were as many as a dozen people, all gathered around the door of Jishifang.
He looked very cautious, as if he had really seen a ghost.
There are a few familiar dignitaries nearby who came here after hearing that there was a ghost here. The more money they have, the more boring they become. Everyone wants to see what the ghost looks like.
Looking further inside, Li Yide and his granddaughter Li Tong'er were kneeling on the ground crying and shouting. They were also very frightened. Old Li Tou was already very old. He had been fighting for three or four times in a while, saying that he was sorry for his ancestors.
As for Zong, he tried to rush in several times but was pulled back by his granddaughter.
Li Tong'er burst into tears because she couldn't keep the old house of her ancestors. I'm sorry for all my ancestors, but she was exactly the same as Li Yide.
