Chapter 122 Achievement! Cover the sky with one hand (nearly 6000)
…
Following Wang's motorcade, one by one entered Wengcheng.
The crowds and noises became louder and louder, especially those of some traveling merchants and casual cultivators who came from afar. While they were shocked by the scene before them, they also spread the reputation of the Wang family.
An aristocratic family must have a deterrent effect, so that people can be in awe and not dare to use their brains at will. Firstly, it can reduce unnecessary troubles. Secondly, the greater the reputation, the easier it is to obtain benefits.
But at the same time, while maintaining a deterrent effect, the aristocratic family has to make people confused and unable to see the true details.
To put it simply, you need to establish your authority so that people think you are very powerful. At the same time, you need to remain mysterious so that people don’t know how powerful you really are.
The mysteries and mysteries involved must be carefully considered and grasped.
It is precisely for this reason that under Wang Shouzhe's arrangement, the head of the mountain-eating python was placed on the roof of the first carriage. And the white-fronted golden tiger head was "inadvertently" removed from the car.
Half hidden and half exposed in the car.
The Shuiyuan Spirit Turtle carried a large amount of prey and walked into the Wengcheng unhurriedly, raising the shock of the onlookers to an extreme.
After being shocked, he was in awe of the Wang family. He was able to subdue even the third-level ferocious beasts, and the rise of the Wang family was inevitable.
This is called parading through the streets to praise one's merits, and will lay the foundation for the Wang family to dominate Ping'an Town in the near future.
What things should be displayed, what should not be displayed, and how to display them are all the result of discussion and consideration by everyone in the Wang family, and they are not done randomly.
While everyone around him couldn't help but praise Wang, they also all turned their attention to Wang Shouzhe, saying that he was a young clan leader who was young and promising and had an unlimited future.
"elder brother!"
Wang Luomiao broke free from her mother's hand and flew over, her little face rosy with excitement, her eyes full of pride and admiration for her brother.
The traveling merchants, casual cultivators, business representatives, and customs officers who blocked the road took the initiative to get out of the way and create a passage.
That was Wang Luomiao, the legitimate daughter of the Wang family, the half-sister of the patriarch Wang Shouzhe, and her status was very high.
She jumped up with her short legs that hadn't grown yet.
Suddenly, Wang Shouzhe stretched out his arms, picked her up on the horse, and rode with her out of the inner urn city. He asked with a smile: "You little thing, I haven't seen you for more than a month, how come you are so cute again?"
"Brother, your mouth has become sweet." Wang Luomiao said happily, "It's not in vain that I wrote to Sister Ruolan and praised you well."
"Uh...you actually wrote a letter to Miss Ruolan?" Wang Shouzhe said in a confused voice, "Can you use your ghostly calligraphy to make it work? Doesn't this suddenly reveal that I, the Wang family, lack cultural heritage?
"
"Wang Shouzhe, you, you, you, you are bullying others too much, I will fight with you." Wang Luomiao was so angry that she bared her teeth and claws, "Thank you for helping you to make your sister-in-law happy, you have such a lumpy head. Hum hum hum.
, I originally wanted to show you my sister-in-law’s reply, but now, please, I won’t show it to you either.”
"I didn't want to read the private conversations between you girls."
"You, you, you, next time Sister Ruolan and I write a letter, we will say that you are the big bad guy."
"Whatever, if I can't get a wife, I'll trade you, my legitimate daughter, for my marriage."
Gongsun Hui, who was chasing after him, heard this scene and was a little bit dumbfounded but also a little relieved.
Shouzhe and Luo Miao have to do this every time they meet, and Shouzhe is quite happy about it.
And Luo Miao was so angry every time that she almost died, then turned around and threw herself into her brother's arms.
The relationship between Shouzhe and Luo Miao is really good.
Afterwards, Wang Shouzhe dismounted and thanked Gongsun Hui, Liu Ruolei and Liu Yuanrui. Then he followed the motorcade and headed towards the Wang family's main residence.
Many people followed to watch the fun, and more and more people gathered together.
Zhouxuanguan Wengcheng, which was previously bustling with activity, was completely deserted in the blink of an eye. Only people from the Liu and Zhao families were left, as well as some soldiers who were unable to leave because they were responsible for guarding the city. It looked completely deserted.
Lei Yangqiu, the governor of Ping'an Town, saw this scene and couldn't help but sigh as he saw the snow falling heavier and heavier.
"This Ping'an Town has completely changed."
The faces of the young people of the Liu and Zhao families suddenly collapsed. Many of them were fragile and unable to bear the pressure, so they collapsed on the ground and started crying.
…
Wang's motorcade walked slowly.
The journey that originally took less than an hour and a half ended up taking two and a half hours.
Behind the team, there were no less than three to four thousand people following them. Looking down from a high position, it was really a large and huge group of people.
The Wang family's main house had already heard the news, and the clan members, servants, and maids who had stayed behind were already waiting outside the door. Because they were afraid of not having enough manpower, they specially called many people from the side clan to carry it.
"Shou Zhe." Wang Shouxin came over, his face flushed with excitement.
The Wang family has been in decline for fifty years, and he, Wang Shouxin, lived forty-three years old. He has never seen the Wang family in such glory.
Immediately, he carefully advised: "Some powerful families, after returning from hunting in autumn and winter, will take out a small part of the prey, just ordinary ones, if a big harvest attracts onlookers. Then they will cook the meat on the spot and distribute it to those people."
Poor people who cannot eat meat all year round.”
"At the same time, some powerful families will also take out half of the beasts and sell them to local low-class families at a lower price to unite people and enhance their prestige. This tradition is called the 'Celebration Banquet'."
Of course, when Wang Shouxin was still alive at the age of 43, the Wang family did not have the power or status to hold a "celebration banquet".
Every time when hunting in autumn and winter, Wang would go quietly and come back dejectedly.
However, when Patriarch Zhou Xuan was still alive, he would hold a celebration banquet when the harvest was good.
As soon as this statement came out.
Several older tribesmen all had strong expectations in their eyes. The Wang family had been in decline for fifty years, and now it had finally turned around. They also wanted to improve their family's sense of honor and increase their jurisdiction.
of prestige.
"Okay." Wang Shouzhe thought for a while and said, "I remember that there were still five or six ordinary bulls and wild pigs left, so I took out one of each, and the rest were pickled and refrigerated. In addition, some stocks were raised in the family warehouse.
All the meat is also taken out for the celebration banquet, and the warehouse is freed up at the same time."
"By the way, let's build a few more porridge sheds and serve porridge once. If there are more people and less meat, there won't be enough food."
"As for selling ferocious beast meat at low prices, let's take the first-level green-hoofed bull. That one weighs three thousand kilograms, which is enough. Be careful to warn those unscrupulous families that if they dare to sell spiritual meat at low prices,
If you give it to a foot trader, don't blame me, Mr. Wang, for being merciless."
The family's food warehouse is not small, but this harvest was so amazing that the ice cellar warehouse may not be enough.
And just for people like Wang, it is estimated that they can eat it for two years if they open it up.
"Okay." Wang Shouxin was very excited and led the crowd to do as promised.
When the people and some local Xuanwu families, who were not popular in the local area, discovered that the Wang family was preparing to hold a celebratory banquet, and the amount of ingredients they brought out was astonishing, they immediately became excited.
In the past few decades, the Liu and Zhao families have held celebratory banquets in turn. However, the scale was very small. I am afraid that even the Wang family’s celebratory banquet this time will not be successful. They just make a profit and show that they are the safe town.
The "top family".
Naturally, there is no need for the patriarch of the clan, Wang Shouzhe, to come forward to hold a celebration banquet. It can be handled by several brothers, as well as the female relatives and younger brothers and sisters in the family.
At this time, Wang Shouzhe, Liu Ruolei and Liu Yuanrui returned to the main house, and immediately went to visit Ancestor Zhisheng.
Along with him, of course, were Ancestor Longyan and Ancestor Xiaohan.
This is the proper etiquette. After receiving the letter, Patriarch Zhisheng did not hesitate to come to help guard the Wang family's main residence.
This favor is not small.
The two parties exchanged pleasantries and polite remarks, and finally the ancestor, determined to win, retired and said goodbye.
Naturally, Wang Shouzhe would not let Ancestor Zhisheng do his work in vain. Then a cart of spiritual meat and spiritual rice would be delivered directly to the Shanyin Liu family's house.
Wait until all matters are taken care of.
Only then did Wang Shouzhe completely settle down and relax, as if all his burdens had been lifted off him.
Afterwards, he took a nice bath, told Wang Gui not to see anyone, didn't think about anything, and just lay in bed all day and night.
During this period of time, I was really tired from dealing with the Liu and Zhao families. The most important thing was that I was mentally tired and could not tolerate any mistakes.
But now, I am really relaxed.
…
Wang's celebratory banquet was held very lively, and it seemed to have become the most lively celebration in the entire Ping'an Town.
What almost everyone talks about and mentions in topics is Ping An Wang.
The other two aristocratic families in Ping'an Town, the Ping'an Liu family and the Ping'an Zhao family, seemed to have been forgotten in the corner and no one mentioned them again.
It seems that there is only one Xuanwu family in the huge Ping'an Town - the Ping'an Wang family.
at this time.
A carriage with a large official's official residence parked very low-key at the door of the Wang family's main residence.
The first person to get off the carriage was an imposing middle-aged man wearing the uniform of the guardian envoy. This man was of course the guardian envoy Lei Yangqiu.
Then, two more old men in their seventies or eighties walked out of the carriage tremblingly.
The square in front of the Wang family was still bustling with people. There were people queuing up to drink porridge and eat meat, and there were also the local Xuanwu family, who were not well-known, and they came to buy low-priced spiritual meat with the money they had saved for a long time.
No normal person would miss such an opportunity.
However, Wang always knows how to do things clearly. There are quotas for the number of people in each family and the number of purchases.
People in the jurisdiction who enjoy the Qing Yu Banquet and eat porridge and meat must also have local household registration certificates and registration, so that you will not be allowed to eat it again and again.
If anyone dares to act recklessly, Wang's methods will naturally be unscrupulous.
But even though it was so strict, there were still many people queuing up after three days and nights.
"Tsk, tsk, the Wang family is indeed flourishing." The guard Lei Yangqiu praised with a smile, and then said to Wang Luoqiu who was dividing the meat, "Little sister Luoqiu, do you still remember me?"
Wang Luoqiu raised his head and glanced at him, and continued to register people. He divided the meat and porridge with his hands and feet, and said casually: "Remember, it's the one who was scolded by my fourth brother. His surname seems to be Lei or something..."
Lei Yangqiu looked embarrassed, and suddenly felt very tired. When had I ever been scolded and cried?
But I didn't want to argue with the little girl, so I laughed twice and said, "Well, the past cannot be mentioned again. By the way, is your fourth brother here? I want to see him. Miss Luoqiu can help pass the news."
"Didn't you see that I was busy?" Wang Luoqiu replied impatiently, beckoned to a boy and said, "Junyan, go to Wang Guitong and tell the fourth brother that someone named Lei is looking for him. By the way, that's that one. Guardian envoy."
"Yes, Miss Six." Ouyang Junyan shrank his neck and hurriedly ran to do something.
He felt deeply in his heart that working with the Sixth Miss would mean that he would have a good reputation, even the dignified guardian envoy would have to wait for him.
soon!
…
In the main hall of Wang's front hall.
Wang Shouzhe and Lei Yangqiu sat face to face drinking tea and chatting from time to time.
Lei Yangqiu kept laughing heartily and echoed Wang Shouzhe's views, as if he were a subordinate facing the leader.
As for the two old men, who were in their seventies and eighties, they stood with their heads lowered and their hands hanging down together, as if waiting for their fate to be decided.
These two old men are naturally the elders of the Liu and Zhao clans.
After three rounds of tea.
Lei Yangqiucai asked carefully: "Brother Shouzhe, Brother Yu, as the guardian of peace, there are some things that you just don't want to take care of. After all, there are so many eyes above staring at me. I just want to ask, brother Shouzhe How do you plan to deal with the remnants of the Liu and Zhao clans?"
"Disposal?" Wang Shouzhe said while drinking tea leisurely, "Envoy Lei Zhen was joking. I, the Wang family, are a traditional family that abides by the law, but we have no right to dispose or dispose of other aristocratic families."
Lei Yangqiu knew that Wang Shouzhe was not easy to mess with, so he was somewhat mentally prepared, and immediately said: "Brother, let's make it clear that people don't tell secrets. Even fools probably know about the affairs of your Wang family and Liu Zhao family in the outside world.
, but it’s a fait accompli and no one will pursue it.”
"However, there are some obvious things that need to be dealt with properly, so as to avoid going up to the top and blaming the people down, which I can't bear."
"Chief Lei Zhen, please don't talk nonsense about the nonsense in the outer and inner realms?" Wang Shouzhe drank tea, glanced at the two old men indifferently, and said loudly, "I'll say it again, our Wang family is a family that abides by the law and has always been a law-abiding family.
Don’t do anything illegal or indisciplined.”
The two old men immediately trembled, and their whole bodies started to tremble.
Lei Yangqiu secretly muttered in his heart, it is indeed true. With Wang Shouzhe's ability, you can probably kill everyone while abiding by the law. Of course, you don't need to risk doing anything illegal.
Lei Yangqiu smiled bitterly at Wang Shouzhe's lack of understanding: "How about this, I will come up with a solution, brother Shouzhe, please listen to it first."
Wang Shouzhe was noncommittal.
"The situation is like this. Similar to what happened between your three clans, our Daqian Kingdom, even Longzuo County or Changning Guard are not without precedent. The usual traditional approach is that if one party fights in aristocratic families
If Zhong finally abstains from the game and flees to another place, the other family will not be able to pursue it anymore." Lei Yangqiu said after considering it.
"Now the Liu and Zhao family only have some old and weak women and children, as well as underage men. I don't think it's better than this. According to some precedents, all the property under their name will be recovered by the Wang family at a 50% discount. Then the Liu and Zhao family will
All the remaining members of the clan took the money and fled to other counties to buy some fields to make a living. They also vowed never to return to Longzuo County."
After speaking, Lei Yangqiu carefully observed Wang Shouzhe's expression.
Unexpectedly, Wang Shouzhe kept silent at all and continued to drink tea, as if the matter had nothing to do with him.
Lei Yangqiu was quite helpless, but as a guardian envoy, it was his duty to get involved in this mess.
He immediately continued to persuade: "Look, Chief Royal, there are just some old and weak women and children on the left and right. Even if they can get a foothold in the county after traveling far away, they are just a small and low-class family. I want to return to the ninth level in this life."
It’s absolutely impossible for aristocratic families.”
"More than a hundred years later, I'm afraid no one in this family will remember the Wang family anymore!"
"And if you, the royal family leader, want to kill all the old, weak, women and children, it will be bad for your clan's reputation if it spreads."
"Haha~" Wang Shouzhe said with a smile, "Zhenzheng Lei always treats me as a bad person in his words, which is not advisable. Although I am very reluctant to let go of my old neighbor, if the Liu and Zhao families want to move, they can
You can leave at any time, no one will stop you."
This Wang Shouzhe is really difficult to talk about, and Lei Yangqiu is very tired.
If he hadn't kept the peace and had received a lot of benefits from the Liu and Zhao families, I really wouldn't want to come out and wade into this muddy water at this time.
In the current situation, without your consent, Wang Shouzhe, would they dare to sell the family property and run away?
There are many people in this big family, old and young, so are they not afraid that if they run around, they will encounter "bandits and water bandits who rob the road", and in the end there will be no bones left?
"Thirty percent off. I'll make a decision for them. After all, they were the ones who made the mistake first. I'll sell the assets to you, the Wang family, at a thirty percent discount." Lei Yangqiu said, "If the head of the royal family gives you a happy word, it's OK. If it's not OK, I'll leave immediately."
People, I won’t get involved in your bad things anymore. From now on, even if someone goes up to the top to blame someone, I won’t bother to get involved.”
After Wang Shouzhe hesitated for a while, he felt that he had been suppressed enough, and then he said calmly: "Since there is an envoy from Lei Zhen to talk about it, I should give you a face."
Lei Yangqiu breathed a sigh of relief, thank you so much for your face. Before he could speak, Wang Shouzhe said again: "But, I also have two conditions."
"Brother Shouzhe, please tell me and I will try my best to mediate." Lei Yangqiu looked solemn.
"First, I, the Wang family, have the final say as to which county they will move to. I will pay attention to the situation there at any time." Wang Shouzhe said.
Lei Yangqiu agreed without hesitation, "That's no problem. It's just that the head of the royal family tries to give them a way to survive and don't let them go to a county where they can't survive."
"Then let's take Liu's Lingbei County and Zhao's Monan County. They are only a few thousand miles away." Wang Shouzhe randomly assigned a place and said, "Secondly, men between the ages of twelve and sixty are young and strong temporarily.
You have to stay. Five years of hard labor in my Wang family can be regarded as atonement for their ancestors."
Lei Yangqiu's face turned bitter, and he secretly thought that Wang Shouzhe was really cruel.
Without those young men, it would be extra difficult for the Liu and Zhao families to establish themselves in such a distant and unfamiliar county. They would probably be targeted and bullied by the local families.
And after five years of hard labor in these young men, how can they still have any energy left in their hearts? How can they still have the desire to compete for supremacy?
It’s over!
The Liu and Zhao families are basically finished. In the future, they will at most be an ordinary Xuanwu family. Let alone a hundred years, even after seventy or eighty years, no one will remember the Wang family or Ping'an Town anymore.
The two clan elders, both in their seventies and eighties, also looked extremely embarrassed.
Wang Shouzhe's strategy eliminated the possibility of them making a comeback. He was planning to ensure that the Liu and Zhao families would never be reincarnated.
But if they don't agree, it is estimated that no one from the Liu and Zhao families will be able to leave Ping'an Town alive.
"That's all, the Liu and Zhao clans have a chance to survive, thanks to the royal family leader." Lei Yangqiu concluded, closing the coffin, "Everything should be done according to the royal family leader's ideas."
Lei Yangqiu is worthy of the dead Liu Zhide and Zhao Bojun. He can't offend the promising Wang Shouzhe for the sake of their two dead ancestors, right?
"Yes, Master Lei." Although the two clan elders were filled with desolation, it was not their turn to decide their own destiny at this time. At the same time, they also saluted Wang Shouzhe and said, "Thank you, clan leader Wang, for leaving a way to survive."
"In this case, I won't leave guard Lei Zhen to eat." Wang Shouzhe served tea and saw off the guests.
Lei Yangqiu then led the two remaining clan elders and held their hands with a smile: "Clan leader Dagnao Wang, farewell, farewell."
After they arrived at the entrance of the main hall, another word came from Wang Shouzhe: "Envoy Lei Zhen, before leaving, don't forget to take away their ninth-grade family seals. Some families are crowned by the monkeys, and they will be given the opportunity."
You can’t get on the stage.”
Lei Yangqiu was startled and hurriedly raised his hands: "That's right, that's right. Everything must be obeyed by the clan leader."
When Lei Yangqiu got on the carriage and looked at the lintel of Ping An Wang's house fading away, he couldn't help but sigh deeply.
"After today, the Wang family's situation in Ping'an Town has been determined."
What Lei Yangqiu didn't know was that after they left.
Wang Shouzhe casually took out the system notebook and made serious changes in the reputation column.
[Family Prestige]: [Xiangwang (100) covers the sky with one hand]
