In this three-acre area of Yanjing, the emergence of family clusters has given each family more resources to utilize, making it seem easier for the family to earn every penny than in other places in China. [ ]
But similarly, this high return also contains huge dangers that other local families do not face.
If you want to prosper in Yucheng, one family may be able to do it on its own, or at most a few families can unite.
But in Yanjing, if the small family is not attached to the big family, then the only choice you will face is to be annexed by other families with greater power than yours.
Therefore, in the circle of Yanjing, no matter how small a family is, it has its own circle.
Relying on the back of a powerful family, the small family can fill their stomachs by sharing some leftovers after the family's big fish and meat.
It seems that this almost parasitic living state has caused all families to face a huge problem.
When one is prosperous, both are prosperous; when one is lost, both are harmed.
Once a big family loses in a fight, while the strength of the big family is damaged, the smaller families that rely on them are also hit.
While the big family only loses its strength, the small family has to lose the whole family.
But even so, there is still an endless stream of small families who want to attach themselves to the big family.
Because they know that if you rely on a big family, you will at least have something to eat. Once you choose to be independent, it will be difficult for you to move forward in Yanjing.
As the capital of more than a dozen dynasties in China a few years ago, Yanjing has the most profound official culture in China.
Today's family dependence relationship is the embodiment of this officialdom culture in the business world.
Compared with other places in China where trees fell down and hozens scattered, in Yanjing they died after trees fell down.
Once a big family dies, other families will never hold back on the small forces behind the big family.
The circle in Yanjing hates betrayers just as the officialdom hates outsiders.
Therefore, every time a big family dies, the smaller families that follow will be annexed by other families in a very short period of time.
Those with a little foresight can keep a glimmer of hope by moving out of Yanjing, but more will perish.
Xie Zhenting is a very ambitious person, so he has never taken sides in these years, and the Xie family has always been in an isolated situation.
Xie Zhenting knew that once he became attached to those big families, it meant that the Xie family would be controlled by the other party in everything, obey the other party's arrangements, and share the prosperity and loss of the other party.
In this case, the Xie family will never be able to reach the heights of the Ye family and the Wang family.
Even if Emperor Ye asked the Ye family to help the Xie family last time, Xie Zhenting did not choose to attach himself to the Ye family, because the strength of the Xie family did not make the Ye family tempted.
More importantly, Xie Zhenting did not know what Huang Huang's status was in the Ye family.
You need to know the news that his son brought back, saying that Emperor Ye personally admitted that he had little connection with the Ye family.
But at this moment, Xie Zhenting was ready to choose to rely on the Ye family.
He had his own considerations. His daughter was going to marry the Ye Emperor, the grandson of the Ye Dynasty, who happened to be the heir of the Ye family.
For Xie Zhenting, this is a good business.
Therefore, when he said those words just now, Xie Zhenting went out of his way to make the current situation of the Xie family even more miserable.
And Emperor Ye was not a fool, so he could naturally see that his future father-in-law wanted to help the Xie family again.
If he didn't know the current situation of the Xie family very well, it would be possible for Emperor Ye to agree directly.
But now, Ye Huang just smiled and said.
"Uncle, there are difficulties to be solved. The current situation of the Xie family is like a person suffering from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular hemiplegia. Although the brain is awake, it cannot control the limbs. All you have to do is to unblock everything."
"Uncle, I believe that if Grandpa Xie were alive, he would never want to see such a fight between the direct line and the collateral line of the Xie family."
"Since they are outwardly focused, why should you be polite to them?"
Ye Huang said with an evil smile on his lips.
In Ye Huang's eyes, there is no definition of family. In his eyes, there are only his relatives and lovers.
As for the so-called family relationship, it is nothing more than a link to maintain a relationship of interest.
If this bond is still within control, we can be more lenient towards those so-called family members.
But once this bond becomes a fetter, the so-called family members choose not to strengthen their family, but to cinch and hold them back.
In this case, these family members can abandon them without hesitation.
For Ye Huang, the only people he trusted in the entire Ye family were his parents, grandfather and aunt, plus his younger sister who was studying in Yanjing.
There is no so-called sense of belonging to the so-called Ye family.
Because the Ye family also has the same problems as the Xie family now.
It is said that people in the family have ulterior motives, and I don't think I need to be too polite to this type of people.
"You mean to ask me to take action against these collaterals?"
Xie Zhenting raised his eyebrows when he heard Ye Huang's words and said,
"I think that's what I mean. Uncle, you should understand the situation the Xie family is facing. Even if the Ye family has the ability to help the Xie family, they would not do it based on common sense."
"It's true that Chen Yan is my girlfriend, but many things like the big family also need to see the exchange of interests."
Putting down the tea cup in his hand, Ye Huang said with a smile.
"I understand this. The Xie family has nothing in exchange for the time being that can tempt the Ye family." Nodding, Xie Zhenting continued.
"I have thought about taking action against the collateral members of my Xie family a long time ago, but once I take action, once I really take action against the collateral members, the Xie family will really be doomed."
Xie Zhenting is not very clear about the strength of the collateral faction.
If they really want to fight to the death, the outcome is unpredictable, and the Xie family, who are still struggling to survive, may also suffer losses.
In that case, Xie Zhenting would really have no shame in going to see his father.
"Since he is already seriously ill, why not give him something drastic to cure him? Even if the Xie family really has the Wang family behind it, I believe that my uncle won't lose too badly with the support of the Ye family, right?"
"You mean, the Ye family will help me with this matter?"
Upon hearing what Ye Huang said, he was initially hesitant to think that Xie Zhenting was overjoyed.
"I think I'm not cold enough to watch the destruction of my future father-in-law's family." Ye Huang said with a smile.
After Ye Huang's words, Xie Chenyan, who was sitting next to her mother and watching her father talking to Ye Huang, turned red again and looked at him with gratitude.
She knew that Ye Huang actually didn't need to do this at all, but in the end he did it anyway, all because of himself.
