Chen Zhao is over sixty years old, but as an innate warrior with strong Qi and blood, he looks similar to Meng Changhe who is about forty years old.
When someone informed him that Meng Changhe was visiting, he was still stunned.
Back then, he monopolized the escort agency left by his senior brother and forcefully forced his nephew to leave. It can be said that the two of them had no contact with each other for the rest of their lives.
In the past ten years, Meng Changhe knew that he was living in seclusion in Chenzhou Mansion, and he had vaguely heard about Meng Changhe's deeds in Changning Mansion, but they had never contacted him once.
Now that Meng Changhe suddenly came to visit, Chen Zhao was still worried. Could it be that his nephew had broken through to the innate realm and came to avenge him for his past grievances?
When he saw that Meng Changhe bowed to him with a humble attitude and called him uncle, and that his strength was still at the post-acquired Great Perfection level, Chen Zhao was sure that Meng Changhe must be asking for something from him.
"Haha, I haven't seen you for more than ten years, uncle, you are still so radiant." Meng Changhe said with a smile.
Chen Zhao lazily sat on the chair, took a sip of the ginseng tea presented by his servants, and then said: "No matter how radiant you are, you can't compare to Changhe's majesty in Changning Mansion.
I heard that you are now the leader of the largest gang in Chang Ning Mansion, with tens of thousands of brothers under your command, dominating the area, which is very majestic."
"Haha, uncle, please stop teasing me. What does my gang mean to you? They don't even have innate warriors. They are just kids playing house." Meng Changhe laughed at himself.
Chen Zhao stroked his beard and said: "Okay, if you have anything to do, just tell me directly. You came to me today not just to catch up with me, right?"
"Okay, uncle, let me tell you straight, I came to you this time to ask for your help."
With that said, Meng Changhe told Chen Zhao everything that happened, but he concealed the fact that Chen Hong and Ma Qingyuan gave him two million taels of silver.
After hearing this, Chen Zhao couldn't help but chuckle and said: "Tsk tsk, Changhe, I'm not talking about you, uncle, but you are already in your forties after all. The overlord of the Chang Ning Mansion can't even subdue a junior now.
You actually let him kill your son and apprentice, you are so useless."
Meng Changhe cursed Chen Zhao in his heart, wishing to tear off a piece of his flesh on the spot.
But Meng Changhe could only smile and said: "That young man is not simple. He can break through to the acquired Dzogchen state before he is twenty years old. Even some disciples of famous sects cannot do it.
In addition, I am not the one who makes the decision on the Three Heroes Association, so I can only come to you, Master, for help."
Chen Zhao immediately shook his head and said: "Changhe, after all, I can be considered your elder. Logically speaking, I should help you if something happens to you.
But unfortunately you also know that I retired from the world more than ten years ago. If I take action now, it will break the rules."
"Five hundred thousand taels of silver!" Meng Changhe said suddenly.
"What did you say!?" Chen Zhao's expression suddenly changed.
Meng Changhe said calmly: "I said I would give you half a million taels of silver as your hard work, uncle."
When he heard that there was money, and it was still five hundred thousand taels, Chen Zhao was immediately moved.
It is true that he is an innate warrior, but he has been living in seclusion for more than ten years. These years of living a pampered and wealthy life have almost spent all the money he earned from selling the escort agency.
Chen Zhao is not good at managing money. He has always been a man of money. Over the years, his money has become increasingly tight recently.
Now Meng Changhe asked for 500,000 taels, but it was a really good deal for him to deal with a junior who was at the Dzogchen level the day after tomorrow.
However, he still held back and agreed immediately, saying in a deep voice: "One million taels, I will go with you."
Meng Changhe was pretending: "Uncle Master, it's not that I don't want to give up money, but most of the funds of the Sanying Society are in the gang. My personal savings are limited, so I can only spend 600,000 taels."
Of course Chen Zhao was unwilling, so the two bargained for 700,000 taels and decided to settle the deal.
Seeing Chen Zhao's expression as if he had taken advantage, Meng Changhe sneered secretly in his heart.
His 'good uncle' was more short of money than he thought, so he just gave away 700,000 taels of silver.
"By the way, what do you want to do? Just do that kid?" After receiving the money, Chen Zhao even became more polite.
Meng Changhe shook his head and said with a sinister expression: "Don't rush me yet, I also promised the Qingzhu Gang to help them get their territory back, and besides, I don't want to kill him so early.
Doesn’t he want to develop the Flying Eagle Gang? Well, I will first deprive him of all the territory and make him feel desperate before he dies!"
Chen Zhao chuckled and said: "Simple, if he doesn't hand over his territory, I will destroy his martial arts first, and you can just grab the territories under his control."
Chen Zhao is very confident about his own strength.
There is only one word difference between nature and nurture, but there is a huge difference. If he wants to destroy Su Xin, no one can stop him.
At this time, Su Xin did not know that the crisis was coming.
After he annexed the Qingzhu Gang, he immediately awarded a large number of rewards to the gang members. All the disciples of the war hall who participated in the battle of the Qingzhu Gang, no matter how big or small the credit was, everyone had a share.
The rewards ranged from tens of thousands to tens of taels, which made other disciples very envious and eager to join the war hall. Su Xin also accepted disciples from the Qingzhu Gang, which greatly increased the number of Su Xin's subordinates.
The number jumped to 20,000, and there were 15,000 Zhantang disciples.
As the saying goes, one vigorous effort will lead to another failure, so Su Xin took advantage of this momentum and found any reason to attack the Jiangyang Gang, causing the Jiangyang Gang to lose a city overnight.
At this time, in the Jiangyang Gang, Jiang Beifei and the two deputy gang leaders were circling in the meeting hall with sad faces, not knowing what to do at all.
Deputy gang leader Yang Dong gritted his teeth and said: "I said at the beginning that Su Xin was so ambitious that sooner or later he would attack our Jiangyang Gang!
Even if we chop off Jiang He’s head and give it to him, it will only delay the time a little. Now you can see that our Jiangyang Gang will soon end up with the same fate as the Qingzhu Gang!"
Jiang Beifei and Zhong Ming stopped talking. They had also decided to give Jiang He's head to Su Xin and not give him a chance to attack.
But I didn't expect that they were still too naive.
If Su Xin really wants to destroy his Jiangyang Gang, does he need any excuse? Just start fighting.
The Flying Eagle Gang's offensive overnight frightened them, and the Jiangyang Gang immediately lost one of their three cities.
Fortunately, the Jiangyang Gang did not fight as fiercely as the Qingzhu Gang, and could still manage to set up some defensive formations. They were able to survive the whole night and were not wiped out in one night like the Qingzhu Gang.
Jiang Beifei patted the table and said, "It's too late to say anything now. The most important thing is to think about how to overcome the difficulties at hand.
Go to the Sanyinghui. Meng Changhe and Su Xin have a murderous grudge, and he will definitely not sit idly by and ignore it.
And inform other gangs that the Flying Eagle Gang is expanding so wildly, and when our Jiangyang Gang is destroyed, it will be their turn next!"
Yang Dong sneered and said: "I just sent someone to find the Sanyinghui, but Meng Changhe was not there. The other two guild leaders and Su Xin had no vengeance for killing their children. They didn't want to meddle in this business at all, so they sent me directly. Those who went there were kicked out."
Zhong Ming also smiled bitterly and said: "Almost all the people I sent to other gangs are like this.
In their view, the current Su Xin is not a threat at all. Even if he swallows up our Jiangyang Gang, the people under him are only about the same as the Iron Sword Society and the Kamikaze Society, and are still far from the Three Heroes Society.
As long as there is no gang like the Sanyinghui that can rule the entire Changning Mansion, they will not join forces, and they will not be able to interfere with such noisy matters."
Just when they were at a loss what to do, someone suddenly came in to report that someone from the Sanying Association had sent a message asking them to go to Shenglong Tower to discuss matters tomorrow.
Jiang Beifei and the other three looked at each other in confusion. Could it be that the Sanyinghui had intervened? Is this a turn of events?
Anyway, no matter which one it is, as long as you can meet someone from the Three Heroes Society, that's good news.
At the same time, all the talkers of the Three Gangs and Four Clubs in Chang Ning Mansion received the post from the Three Heroes Club, including Su Xin of course.
Holding the post, Su Xin wondered: "The Three Heroes Association summoned everyone to Shenglong Tower for discussion. What do they want to do?"
Huang Bingcheng hesitated and said: "As far as I know, all the gangs in Changning Mansion have gathered together for a meeting. This has only happened once in history. That was when the Three Heroes Association rose up and wanted to dominate Changning Mansion, they united to resist. Sanyinghui.
But now, apart from us annexing the Qingzhu Gang and attacking the Jiangyang Gang, there are no other major events happening in Changning Mansion. Are they targeting us this time?"
Su Xin threw the post away casually, saying indifferently: "It's useless to think about it now. We'll know when we go there tomorrow. At worst, the soldiers will come to block it, and the water will come to cover it up."
Early the next morning, Su Xin took Li Huai and Huang Bingcheng directly to Shenglong Tower in the center of Changde Square.
Although Changning Mansion was once the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it was a pity that the Great Zhou Dynasty at that time was just a small southern barbarian country and there were no buildings worth boasting about. The only thing that caught the eye was the Shenglong Tower.
There are seven floors in Shenglong Tower, and each floor requires your identity and qualifications to enter.
In the past, only the princes, grandsons and nobles of the Great Zhou Dynasty could enter the Shenglong Tower, but now, the Shenglong Tower is prepared for them, the real talkers of the Changning Mansion.
As soon as he stepped into Shenglong Tower, a short, fat and festive-looking shopkeeper came up to him and smiled enthusiastically: "It turns out to be Gang Leader Su of the Flying Eagle Gang. This is your first time here. The seventh person in Shenglong Tower I'll always keep a seat for you."
Su Xingong cupped his hands and said, "Thank you very much for the shopkeeper's kindness, but the Flying Eagle Gang is quite far from Changdefang, so I can't come here often."
The shopkeeper of Shenglong Tower complimented: "Maybe it won't be far away in a while. Gang Leader Su, the speed at which you are expanding your territory is the first time I have seen it in so many years in Chang Ning Mansion. The Flying Eagle Gang is only in your hands." , that’s really what it means to soar into the sky.”
Su Xin said a few polite words to him. The shopkeeper of Shenglong Tower is not a simple person. Although he is only responsible for the shopkeeper of Shenglong Tower, the owner behind Shenglong Tower is said to have a background in the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Although the owner of Shenglong Tower has moved the capital to Shengjing, the short and fat shopkeeper in front of him can completely represent the people behind him. Normally, even Sanyinghui Meng Changhe and others would treat him like you He was so scornful to other businessmen, but he was actually very polite.
