The Ning family can be considered a first-class family in Qingzhou.
The Ning family's business mainly consists of taverns and drug stores, and there are Ning family stores in almost every town.
The Ning family is also a big family, and its style is no weaker than that of the Yun family.
And they have always been the sworn enemies of the Yun family.
There is competition in every aspect.
However, more than half a year ago, the Yun family suddenly joined forces with the Sifang Chamber of Commerce, and a magical elixir appeared.
In one fell swoop, the Ning family's pharmacy was suppressed.
As a result, the Ning family's business has shrunk severely, and the situation is gloomy.
Unfortunately, King Yun of the Yun family broke through to the Imperial Martial Realm, and was backed by the Sifang Chamber of Commerce. The Ning family had several collisions, suffered heavy losses, and finally had to endure.
Originally, the Ning family could only be suppressed like this.
But two months ago, the situation suddenly changed, Master Xiao fell, and the battle between the emperor and the empress intensified.
Under the Queen's thunderous tactics, the Sifang Chamber of Commerce was completely suppressed.
And the Yun family, which was at the height of its power, was as helpless as if its backbone had been broken.
So the Ning family took the opportunity to unite with other families to deal with the Yun family, and eroded the Yun family's business step by step.
Now we have reached the final stage.
"Father, all the Yun family's shops in other places have been sealed up, leaving only Su City."
A tall and slender middle-aged man was respectfully reporting.
In front of him sat an old man with white hair.
The old man was dressed in luxurious clothes and his eyes were half closed. Hearing his son's words, he was not in a hurry.
Instead, he waited for a moment and then slowly opened his eyes.
"Duh!"
The old man shouted lowly, and suddenly the whole room was filled with thunderous sounds, deafening.
The surrounding windows and doors were shaking violently.
A ray of lightning flashed in the old man's eyes.
"Hey, I still haven't been able to break through."
The old man sighed, his eyes full of regret.
He has been stuck at the ninth level of the Tianwu Realm for thirty-one years, but has been unable to break through.
This has become a worry for him.
He knew that there was probably no hope of breakthrough in his life.
When he thought of this, he was filled with jealousy.
His mortal enemy Yun Dehui went to Wangjiang City and took a picture of the Master Order.
After that, he made rapid progress. Not only was he cured of his old illness, but he also broke through the bottleneck of many years and entered the Imperial Martial Realm.
This made him feel very unbalanced all the time.
However, the news sent by his son just now turned the jealousy in his heart into happiness.
How much I hated you before, how happy I am now!
"The Yun family is at the end of its tether and can't survive for two days."
The old man put away his breath and spoke calmly.
All of this was planned by him personally, so he could naturally guess the outcome.
"Everything is under your control, Father."
The middle-aged man admired his father so much.
He turned his hand into clouds and turned his hand into rain. In just two months, the huge Yun family was beaten until they could only survive.
Once the Yun family is destroyed, the Ning family will take its place and become the number one family in southern Qingzhou.
"Ning Cheng, do the other families have anything to say?"
The old man picked up the teacup on the side and took a sip before continuing to ask.
"Father, don't worry. The Ren family and the Xu family have all stated that they will only follow your lead, as long as you give orders."
Ning Cheng answered respectfully.
"snort!"
The ancestor snorted lightly and stood up immediately.
"They are just a bunch of fagots. They cannot be trusted. When the Yun family was powerful, they were more diligent than anyone else in fawning over them. Now that they see that my Ning family has the support of the Queen, they have turned around and fawned over us again. After the Yun family is dealt with,
Then free up your hands to take care of them slowly."
The old man has been involved in the world for decades and has been dealing with these families for decades. How could he not know their temperament?
"Father is right, but we still need their help for the time being. After all, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Besides, Yun Dehui of the Yun family is a warrior in the Imperial Martial Realm after all. If he is angered..."
Ning Cheng spoke with some worry.
The thirteen families are basically engaged in business, and there are not many strong ones.
The highest level is the Tianwu realm.
There are basically no strong people in the Imperial Martial Realm. If Emperor Yun really loses his face, it will be very troublesome.
"It doesn't matter, Yun Dehui won't do that."
The old man shook his head. He knew his mortal enemy better than anyone else.
"Both the eldest and the second eldest son of the Yun family are useless. Now they are just relying on Yun Dehui for support. Yun Dehui knows very well that if the current situation continues, the Yun family may still be able to struggle for a while, and even rely on the accumulation of ancestors.
It won't be a problem to hold on for a few years, but as if it were a head-to-head encounter, the entire Yun family is about to be destroyed."
The old man's eyes were sharp, as if he had already thought of everything for Yun Dehui.
In the ups and downs of the business, he is more calculating than anyone else.
"Father, I think too much!"
Ning Cheng cupped his fists and bowed, feeling surrendered.
Ta-ta-ta!
At this moment, a servant walked in quickly.
"Master, the eldest master, someone from the Yun family has sent an invitation."
The servant spoke respectfully and handed over an invitation card with a red background and gold foil.
Um?
An invitation from the Yun family?
The old man and Ning Cheng both frowned slightly.
Ning Cheng took the invitation and waved the servant to leave.
"Father, Yun Dehui is hosting a banquet at the Daguan Tower in Su City and invites you to attend in three days."
After Ning Cheng saw the message on the invitation clearly, he opened his mouth to convey it to the old man.
"Going to a banquet?"
The old man frowned slightly, thinking quickly in his mind.
"Father, this must be the Hongmen Banquet. In the current situation of the Yun family, there is no guarantee that they will jump over the wall. Moreover, it is in Su City, so you must not go."
Ning Cheng was anxious and tried to comfort him, hoping that his father would not take this risk.
But the old man shook his head.
"No, I have to go to this banquet."
The old man took the invitation and read it carefully.
"This invitation must not be for me alone. There must be the Ren family, the Xu family, etc. Yun Dehui invited thirteen of our families in one fell swoop. I want to see what kind of medicine he is selling in his gourd.
.”
The old man was confident that he knew Yun Dehui well, and an inexplicable smile appeared on his face.
"Father, Yun Dehui is a warrior in the Imperial Martial Realm after all. It would be terrible if he deliberately held a banquet and planned to catch them all."
Ning Cheng was still worried.
"I have been fighting with Yun Dehui for decades, and I already know his character clearly. Although he has extraordinary methods and is decisive in doing things, he has one biggest weakness."
The old man is full of confidence.
"What he values most is family affection. Women are too benevolent. If he is determined to catch them all in one fell swoop, the Yun family will be destroyed the next day. He doesn't dare to do that."
"After all, if I die, and you still have me, the Ning family will not fall, and neither will other families."
The old man was confident that he had already figured out Yun Dehui's temperament, so he was not afraid at all.
I immediately made a decision to attend the Daguanlou banquet in three days.
Unfortunately, he didn't know that this decision was not made by Yun Dehui.
