Chapter 987 987: I’ll give you all the money, your ancestors are rich [please ask for monthly votes]
Gong Xiqiu didn't know Su Shiyilu.
I just think this person's name is weird.
He took a bite of the pie and said, "What's this guy called Sulu? He's also under Mama's tent? No one in my memory has the last name Su Shi, right?"
Shen Tang said: "My name is not Sulu, but Su Shiyilu, and this is a first name, not a surname. He is a military commander who was originally from Shiwu, an old guy with a bad temper, who curses and is dirty. Of course, this Just talk about it in private..."
As the head of the country, she cannot show too obvious preferences.
What is good at the top will be bad at the bottom.
If the superiors do evil, the inferiors will follow suit.
Wuzhou is a relatively sensitive existence in Kang State. Policies involving Wuzhou must be cautious, especially when dealing with civil and military personnel from Wuzhou. Otherwise, if one mistake is not made, it will be counterproductive and stimulate the unity of Wuzhou. Then it will be Shen's turn. Tang has a headache.
Gong Xiqiu nodded seriously and tapped his lips with his finger: "Understood!"
He has the strictest mouth.
A piece of meat pie is just a few mouthfuls for an adult man. Gong Xiqiu looked at his empty hands and walked back a few steps: "Madam boss, I've got all the meat pie in your shop."
Shen Tang waited there for a while and watched Gong Xiqiu running briskly with a bag full of meat cakes: "I have known you for so many years and this is the first time that I know you are so good at eating. You have never been idle. I am really worried about you. One day, I ran away from home with a body full of muscles. I was so fat that I couldn't even put on my armor, and my body was wasted."
She thought about how Gong Xiqiu had gained weight and had three layers of fat on his chin, and she almost gave up coveting Gong Xiqiu's body.
Gong Xiqiu said: "I have never been fat in my life."
He has been handsome since childhood.
and--
He said amusedly: "Mama still wants my body?"
Martial armor is an armor made of martial energy that best fits the user's body. Whatever the user looks like, the armor will have the same specifications. There is no possibility of getting fat and unable to wear it. Gong Xiqiu has always known that Shen Tang likes his body, because She herself is not so tall and burly, nor can she have such a perfect body. Gong Xiqiu is different from her. What he likes most is Mama's head.
Ever since he knew that she was a sacred object worshiped by the clan, Gong Xiqiu knew that he would never have the chance to collect her head in his life.
Shen Tang looked him up and down: "I don't want to get fat."
Gong Xiqiu looked at the meat pie he bought in embarrassment.
Hesitate for a second and continue to show off.
Tuocheng, as the place where Kang and Bei Mo trade mutually, has developed and prospered in recent years with the support of the policies of the two countries. Even though the situation between the two places is tense, troops are stationed on the border, and a war is imminent, Tuocheng can still see some of its former glory. It is still early today, and inside the city Only a few shops were open, and Gong Xiqiu visited them all.
Shen Tang was keenly aware that his appetite had increased recently.
"Are you eating too much these days?"
Gong Xiqiu is not a person who pays attention to his appetite.
For him, playing marbles is more enjoyable than eating meatloaf.
In addition to his appetite, Gong Xiqiu has recently appeared frequently wherever Shen Tang can see him. In the past, Gong Xiqiu would only think of her when he was short of playmates or looking for someone to fight with.
Showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing!
Hearing Shen Tang's quarrel, Gong Xiqiu couldn't help but spit at her: "Oh, it's not because eldest brother asked for it."
"The High Priest of Jimo?"
Shen Tang also hasn't seen anyone for a few days. Specifically, after the night attack by Yunda and his two men, Jimo Qiu has not been seen again.
She decided to take the initiative to attack while her foothold in the Northern Desert was not stable.
If Jimo Qiu can join, it will be even more powerful.
Gong Xiqiu showed off another meat pie in a few words: "Yes, he knew that Mama was a sacred object in the clan, so his behavior became very abnormal. He said he was going back to get something... Let me protect him during this period. You also fed me Gu worms..."
"Go back? Go back to the Gongxi clan?"
Gong Xiqiu shook his head and said, "It's the land of the old clan."
The clan area in Minfeng County is the new clan area that was relocated after the Wu Guo disaster. Before that, the clan members lived in a more secluded place, truly isolated from the world. Gong Xiqiu knew that there was such a place, but he looked like this I have never been back since I was a kid.
"Oh, what's the matter with him feeding you Gu insects?" Shen Tang believed that it was unreasonable for him to harm his only relative and clan member, but he knew people and faces but didn't know his heart. He had a closer relationship with Gong Xiqiu, and he didn't treat Jimo Qiu as a human being. The act of feeding Gu worms will naturally trigger vigilance.
Gong Xiqiu said: "Eldest brother said that pulling out seedlings will help them grow."
Shen Tang: "You are still considered a 'miao' at your age?"
The speechless expression on her face was full of disgust.
Gong Xiqiu curled his lips unconvinced: "What do you mean by 'this age'? Don't talk about my current age, even if I add another hundred or two hundred years, I will still be a younger brother in front of my elder brother! Since he is a younger brother ,How come you are not considered a 'miao' in front of your brother?"
Even Mama can't use his age as an excuse.
Shen Tang: "..."
After Gong Xiqiu said this, Jianmei Xingmu became even more proud: "Eldest brother said that he specially refined this Gu insect for me because he was afraid that I would be killed by Gong Cheng and the other two while he was away..."
Shen Tang couldn't bear to look at it and turned his face away, not looking at Gong Xiqiu's silly look of "you have a brother who can do everything": "What is the specific effect?"
Gong Xiqiu: "I told you, it's about improving your cultivation level."
He suddenly thought of Gong Cheng's situation.
"It's similar to the [Enlightenment] that Gong Yunchi received."
It's just not as overbearing as [Daigo Enlightenment].
Jimo Qiu did not hide anything from Gong Xiqiu;
As for Shen Tang, Gong Xiqiu didn't hide anything.
"My eldest brother had a unique adventure before and received all the 'legacy' of a 20th grade Chehou. My eldest brother gave part of the 'legacy' to me through that Gu worm. I want to fully use this 'legacy' , you need some external assistance.”
Although the energy provided by food is limited and the conversion efficiency is low, it is better than nothing. That's why Gong Xiqiu has a big appetite.
Shen Tang paused: "Are you going to break through?"
"It's not that easy."
If he was given a year and a half, what chance would there be? He would have to fight now, so how could he have the chance to focus on cultivation and breakthrough? The main purpose of Jimo Qiu giving him this "legacy" Gu was to allow him to explode at critical moments. trump card, used to save lives.
"When will the high priest of Jimo return?"
Gong Xiqiu: "The shortest time is one or two days, the long time is three to five days."
As they talked, the two came to a mansion in the center of Camel City.
This place was originally a paradise built by Bei Mo Xungui who spent huge sums of money. It has a very ordinary layout, but the only unusual thing is the backyard.
On the left side of the backyard are placed a group of concubines and beauties, and on the right side of the backyard are placed a group of handsome men with all hair colors and eye colors. It is said that the nobles specially sent people to carefully select them from all the tribes in the Northern Desert.
The Kang State and Bei Mo were at odds. The Kang State soldiers and horses in Tuocheng took the lead in attacking the main city. They captured a large number of hostages and confiscated their property. The whole family was imprisoned. These people are currently being entertained with delicious food and drinks. One day Drag it out if it's useful.
As for where to use it?
Of course it’s the flag sacrifice!
It wasn't Shen Tang's first time here, but every time he came, he couldn't help but sigh: "Oh, this is called enjoyment, lying drunk on the knees of a beautiful woman, waking up to the sky... ah no, Camel City Quan. And I am just a broken worker. The residence is not as luxurious as the houses of the nouveau riche."
She cursed the rich man fiercely in her heart.
Of course, these Northern Desert nobles are not without their contributions.
They had a lot of property confiscated from their house. Shen Tang gave some of it as a reward and kept the rest in his private treasury. Of course, it was not her turn to enjoy the wealth. They were all prepared for Xun Zhen. During the battle in Bei Mo, she didn't know what to do. How much debt is owed.
Now I can hug you a little more.
To a certain extent, part of this is her money - the merchant surnamed Chen did business in Tuocheng and fed these people. Now, the money just goes around in circles and returns to Shen Tang. Pocket, she held it reasonably.
Gong Xiqiu said: "If Mama is short of money..."
He suddenly stopped talking.
Because he remembered that after the genocide was exterminated, he gave Gong Xi Lai all the ancestral property he had collected and his savings over the years. His current situation was just that he had enough to eat and drink, but he really didn’t have much money. Gong Xiqiu immediately changed his mind: "I Ask the elder brother to send you money."
"Your eldest brother's money? Isn't it appropriate?"
Gong Xiqiu explained: "It cannot be said that it is the eldest brother's money. It should be said that it is the money that the eldest brother is responsible for keeping. I remember the old high priest said that when the clan left, most of the things in the old clan were not touched. However, there are some things in the old clan's land. Special protection, currently only the high priest can go back and open it. Mama is a sacred object, and the things in the clan are yours. The Gongxi clan, including Xun Ding, is only a family of four, so you have to use up all their savings. It doesn’t matter…”
From what Gong Xiqiu said, that was probably a lot of money.
Shen Tang couldn't help but ask the question that he had been wondering about for many years.
"Where did the Gongxi clan get so much money?"
"My ancestors were rich. Our ancestors did not always live in seclusion. Before they lived in seclusion, the Gongxi clan was also very famous in the secular world. It was a wealthy family that lasted for hundreds of years."
Shen Tang: "...A wealthy family? How wealthy are you?"
Gong Xiqiu recalled the ancestral documents he had read when he was a child and said: "Mama rode a war horse and set off from the ancestral home. She galloped in any direction and could not leave the clan field for two or three hours."
Shen Tang: "..."
Good guy, a real aristocratic family is actually by her side!
She now remembered that Gong Xiqiu had said that the Gongxi clan had committed serious crimes. On the way to exile, the whole clan met their benefactor and was rescued by him, so they decided to live in seclusion. Before living in seclusion, it was possible for the family to have a great business. However, this It's also too big.
To the extent that Gong Xiqiu said, looking at the mainland today, not even a single family can reach it. It is no wonder that a large family has lived in seclusion for so many years, and their lives are still nourishing. Gong Xiqiu even treats pearls as marbles every day. Fight, if you join forces with your ancestors, you will be rich.
Fortunately, the Gongxi clan has long since lived in seclusion.
If it were still a wealthy family now, she would definitely not let him go.
Shen Tang was very curious: "As for the large family you mentioned, I don't remember any family with the surname 'Gongxi'."
Gong Xiqiu said: "Of course it's because I changed my surname."
His mind was stuck for a while.
The ancestral surname is so unfamiliar to him that he cannot remember it without thinking about it deliberately: "However, the family records have been burned and repaired several times, and the original surname of the ancestor is not certain, so it is not important."
Shen Tang: "..."
When the ancestors heard this, they were probably so angry that they sat up in the coffin.
Shen Tang's heart moved: "Can I really use the ancestral property?"
How can people give up money just to save face?
Gong Xiqiu looked at Shen Tang who was almost touching his face and tilted his head back to avoid it. Her smile was too scary: "I don't have any objection. Big brother will also follow the teachings of our ancestors. But to what extent, I don't know. I don’t know, don’t be disappointed if Mama is missing.”
Shen Tang smiled, hooked his shoulder and patted his chest.
The armor was slapped by her: "Etiquette is light but affection is heavy. With the friendship between you and me, how can I dislike the lack of money? This is simply rain from heaven! If this battle is won, as long as Kang Guo is still alive, he will never I will treat your family badly. I promise!"
Gong Xiqiu rubbed his chest, which was numb from the shock.
He muttered: "None of this matters, as long as you promise to give your body to me after you die and let me bury you back to your clan."
Shen Tang teased him: "I'm afraid it won't be possible to negotiate with the officials."
The remains of the king are buried in the royal tomb.
Gong Xiqiu said disdainfully: "Do I need to discuss it with them?"
Shen Tang: "...You turned around and dug up my royal tomb?"
This is indeed something Gong Xiqiu can do.
Gongxi Qiu Li said confidently: "Mama is a sacred object worshiped by the clan. After death, she will naturally return to the clan. What is the royal tomb? Can you sleep comfortably in a coffin like the clan's?"
As he spoke, he became anxious.
Shen Tang: "..."
She decided to change the subject.
Every time the topic came up, Gong Xiqiu always looked like he wanted to push her back into the coffin and bury her alive, completely ignoring their many years of friendship. The former's ancestral brain circuit really made him anxious, and he might not be able to wait. He died of his own death.
Shen Tang thought about the windfall and pretended to cough: "Is the old clan far away? Do you want someone to help the Jimo High Priest?"
Gong Xiqiu said: "It's something that ordinary people can't find."
Shen Tang was aroused and curious: "Where is it?"
Most people can't find her, but she is the head of a country.
As long as she is still in Kang State, there is no place she cannot go.
Gong Xiqiu tried his best to recall: "It seems to be called what kind of sea... ends of the earth? Capes of the earth? Sea mountains or mountains and seas?"
Shen Tang sighed: "My ancestors knew that you didn't even remember the name of your clan, so why didn't you raise the coffin overnight to beat your unworthy descendants? Forget it, let's talk about this later, it's important now."
Gong Xiqiu followed Shen Tang and continued to mutter.
"What does it seem to be called Taoyuan?"
Shen Tang said: "I still have the Garden of Eden."
Didn't Gongxi Chou say before that the ancestors of the Gongxi clan lived in the "Garden of Eden" more than a thousand years ago and were lucky enough to survive the catastrophe? Shen Tang's casual ridicule frustrated Gongxi Chou, and he was embarrassed and said: "This is still The annals of strange clans are too sloppy and boring."
Is it his responsibility that he can't remember?
"The Garden of Eden and the land of the old people are two different places."
"Mama, give me time, I will definitely remember it."
"If that doesn't work, when Bei Mo is defeated, let me take you back to have a look. Listen to me, it's better to see it with your own eyes."
Shen Tang didn't even look back and replied casually: "Then, you brothers worked together to push me into the coffin and bury me alive?"
Not only must we guard against Gong Xiqiu, but we must also guard against Jimo Qiu.
With that said, the two of them arrived at the temporary operations hall.
Shen Tang opened the door.
Twenty or thirty pairs of eyes in the room looked at each other.
All the ferocious eyes fell on Gong Xiqiu.
They only heard that Gong Xiqiu wanted to bury the Lord alive!
Shen Tang cleared his throat and smoothed over the awkward situation: "Hahaha, don't worry, gentlemen, it's just a joke. Is there any news from the other side? Have you figured out the strength of the troops in the Northern Desert?"
Shen Tang and others decided to take the initiative to attack. Naturally, they could not wait for the enemy to come over at Yaoriguan. The main force of troops used Tuocheng as their base. Gong Shuwu asked himself to be the vanguard, and Shen Tang agreed.
