Chapter 42: The Years Are Quiet {xml} Artifact Spirit
…
Yu Wen Nianjing had been watching the excitement, and when she saw Qian Xuefu's funny expression, she couldn't help but laugh: "The head of the Shouzhe family is very talented, and his demeanor and temperament are also excellent. It's no wonder that Senior Sister Gu will keep it in mind. Senior Brother,
I think you are probably out of luck, give up as soon as possible~"
The last time Master Alchemy recruited disciples, Yu Wen Nianjing was rejected in the end even though his results were pretty good in all aspects.
Fortunately, the Yuwen Family had a good reputation. After time passed, Master Danding secretly accepted her as a registered disciple. As for Dongfang Yuxi, she was completely ruined. She didn't even have the status of a registered disciple.
Qian Xuefu was already sad enough, but when he heard what she said, he felt like a thousand arrows were piercing his heart. He looked at Yuwen Nianjing faintly: "Nianjing~~~ If it doesn't work, let's get together and join forces.
Let’s live a good life?”
Yuwen Nianjing rolled her eyes at him: "If you are half as good-looking as Shouye, I might consider it."
Qian Xuefu rolled his eyes.
If his looks were half as good as Shouye's, who would still look for her?
Immediately, he grabbed Wang Shouye and said, "Come on, come on, teach me your experience, how can I look better?"
After saying that, he pulled Wang Shouye to the inner courtyard without any explanation.
After arriving at the inner courtyard, Qian Xuefu took him into a side hall.
Wang Shouye was confused, but he never thought that there was already a person sitting in the side hall.
He was a young man with a noble spirit.
He wears a white jade crown with auspicious cloud patterns on his head, a set of black and gold spiritual silk cloud brocade clothes on his body, and a spiritual jade pendant hanging from his waist. He has an elegant temperament and a graceful demeanor, and he looks like a noble prince.
It's just that the figure and face are slightly rounded, but they are somewhat similar to Qian Xuefu.
Seeing Wang Shouye and Qian Xuefu come in, the fat young man immediately stood up.
"Junior Brother Shouye, let me introduce you." Qian Xuefu changed his usual demeanor and became serious, "This is my fourteenth brother, Qian Xuehan. Fourteenth brother, this is me and you
The person I mentioned before is Wang Shouye of the Wang family in Changning."
"I often hear brother Shouye talking about Brother Shouye. When I see him today, he is indeed a young dragon among men. He will fly high in the sky in the future." Qian Xuehan smiled and saluted Shouye with a very thoughtful etiquette.
"How dare you, how dare you, Shou Ye has met the Fourteenth Young Master."
The Wang family in Changning also had a very strict upbringing. Although Wang Shouye was obsessed with alchemy, he was also a person who knew etiquette and immediately returned the courtesy.
"Shouye, the fourteenth brother is the eldest son of our Qian family." Qian Xuefu quietly reminded Wang Shouye, and then added, "He came to see you today to act in secret, and it needs to be kept secret from the outside world. You guys talk,
Brother Yu has resigned first."
After that, he turned around and left, running outside to look at the door.
Wang Shouye's heart immediately trembled, and he felt that things were not simple.
The eldest son of the Zifu family has a high status, and now he secretly comes to find him. What is the reason?
Before Wang Shouye could react, Qian Xuehan, his legitimate son, rushed forward and begged with tears in his eyes: "Shouye, save me..."
Wang Shouye was immediately shocked.
…
Wang's family in Changning, Ping'an Town.
These days, due to the confrontation with the Qian family and the full rollout of air cold chain transportation, the Wang family has won a wave of new developments.
But it is precisely because of this that the Wang family's already stretched manpower has become even more scarce. It can be said that people are needed everywhere, but there is a shortage of manpower everywhere. Even those who have just graduated from ethnic studies,
The half-grown girls had no choice but to take up the responsibility and start contributing to the development of the Wang family.
However, no matter how busy it is outside, the Wang family has not been disturbed internally. Especially the younger generation of the Wang family is still studying and living step by step.
Behind the main hall of Wang's main residence, there is a group of buildings that were newly built in recent years.
This building mainly houses functional facilities such as the Mission Hall, the Sutra Pavilion, and the Treasure House. On weekdays, Wang disciples receive missions, calculate contribution values, exchange and receive elixirs and other cultivation materials here.
At the entrance of the mission hall, Wang Zongyao, the fourth oldest member of the "Zong" generation, walked in with his eleven-year-old family general Xiao Miao Wang Ping.
In the middle of this hall, there is an energy supply formation, and a crystal ball the size of a head is suspended in the middle of the formation.
As soon as Wang Zongyao walked over, the crystal ball emitted a soft light, and his voice was sweet and sweet: "Ding dong! Welcome the fourth young master Zong Yao, and the young general Wang Ping."
"Ding dong! The head of the family has given an order. The young family general Wang Ping's training sequence will be adjusted from a key training sequence to a special key training sequence. The treatment will be the same as that of a direct descendant of the family."
While she was talking.
In the changing light, a two-dimensional beautiful girl appeared next to the crystal ball.
She looks a bit like a girl from earth fantasy works, with a pair of cute cat ears, slender legs, and a figure with exaggerated proportions in all aspects.
Every time Wang Zongyao saw the image of Qi Ling, his eyelids would jump and he would not dare to look further.
At the same time, he couldn't help but curse in his heart. How did the fourth uncle come up with this image? What exactly did he go through to form such a unique and strange aesthetic?
Because of this matter, there was a lot of excitement in Fourth Uncle's yard. Because Fourth Aunt always felt that Fourth Uncle had hidden some ulterior secrets in the past.
"Weapon Spirit, I'm here to collect the supplies for the past two months and apply for early access to all resources for the next year." Wang Zongyao lowered his head and said, "The reason is that because of practicing "Smelting Heaven Art" and learning the art of refining weapons,
It is necessary to retreat in Qinglian Fire Valley for a long time."
"Ding dong~ Fourth Young Master Zong Yao's application is logical and approved." Qi Ling's sweet voice sounded, "I hope Fourth Young Master Zong Yao will work hard and strive to become a master of weapon refining as soon as possible and become the backbone of our Wang family."
The sound is quite nice, but every time I have to add a "ding dong", it gives Wang Zongyao a headache.
He quickly asked Wang Ping to apply for resources, and then ran away with the resources on the list. If he stayed any longer, he always felt that he would think of "ding dong" even in his dreams.
However, before he could lead Wang Ping out of the mission hall gate, he met Wang Shouye walking towards him.
He was overjoyed immediately and went up to greet him and bowed respectfully: "Uncle Qi, why are you back?"
"Zong Yao." Wang Shouye smiled and patted his shoulder, "I've heard about you. You and Wang Ping study hard together. In the future, whether your family can make some achievements in the art of weapon refining and carry it forward will be decided.
It’s up to you two.”
Today's Wang family is just starting out in side businesses such as alchemy and weapon refining, and is not very good at it.
But if a family wants to become a truly top wealthy family, even if it does not have to be proficient in everything, it must dabble in all aspects. Like those fifth-grade Zifu aristocratic families, the family has its own alchemy workshop, refining
Only in this way can we not be easily blocked by other forces.
"Uncle Qi, I have to study hard with you." Wang Zongyao said with admiration, "You have made a lot of contributions to the family during your journey of alchemy."
"The development of the family does not happen overnight. As long as you study hard, there will always be a time when you can contribute to the family in the future." Wang Shouye comforted and encouraged, "I will deal with the task at hand first, and then go to Fourth Brother
Let’s talk about something there. Come to me and Fourth Brother in the evening, and we’ll have a meal together.”
"Yes, Uncle Qi."
To be honest, Wang Zongyao was a little afraid of seeing Wang Shouzhe and was under too much psychological pressure. But he didn't dare not listen to Qi Shuzhe's words, so he could only agree.
After separation.
Wang Shouye took care of some chores first, and then went to Wang Shouzhe's yard to join him.
Wang Shouzhe's yard is still as usual, full of life.
In front of the stone table, the two brothers sat opposite each other and drank tea.
Several younger children were running wildly in the yard, and then they were caught one by one by Liu Ruolan, who needed to learn Chinese calligraphy, and who needed enlightenment.
The sunshine is just right and the greenery is thick.
The children's laughter and play floated in the breeze, accompanied by Liu Ruolan's soft and hard scolding, like a melodious piece of music, full of pleasant and touching flavor.
"Fourth brother, when you first became the head of the family, I remember that I was only ten years old." Wang Shouye, who was already in his early thirties, was filled with emotion while drinking the spirit tea, "In the blink of an eye, I
, our Wang family has really undergone earth-shaking changes. Li Yao has already entered the academy, and so have Li Yue and Zong Rui."
"This child is like a leek, growing one after another." Wang Shouzhe shook his head helplessly, "When will my yard be cleaner?"
Even though he said this, his heart was still full of warmth.
Isn't the reason why he desperately wants to develop the Wang family so that the children of the family can have a better space to grow? There is no need to push back and forth for a small Peiyuan Pill.
After the two talked briefly.
Wang Shouye then started to get to the point: "Fourth brother, the main reason why I came back this time is because of Qian Xuehan. The thing is like this..."
After some conversation.
Wang Shouzhe was holding the spiritual tea and fell into deep thought.
After a moment, he frowned and said: "The Qian family is a merchant family, and it is not unusual for them to value profit over face. The relationship between us and the Qian family is just a dispute of interests, not a life-or-death feud."
"What does Fourth Brother mean..." Wang Shouye said, "We will understand with Qian?"
"There is no grudge at all, so what's the point of talking about forgiveness or not?" Wang Shouzhe said with a gentle chuckle, "What's more, the Qian family is a fifth-grade family. How can we, the Wang family, be so virtuous and capable as to be fully enemies with them? Just...
This bite of fat right now is enough for our Wang family to digest for a long time."
"It's just that I underestimated Qian Xuehan. According to the previous information, Qian Xuehan is the legitimate son of the Qian family, but he is extremely mediocre in all aspects and is a mediocre person."
Wang Shouye nodded and said: "It can be seen from his words that he is still very cautious. It can also be seen that his stepmother Cao Lina is the mastermind behind the grudge against us this time."
"Which is right or wrong remains to be verified. At least, it can be seen from this incident that Qian Xuehan is not a simple person. We have to be careful." Wang Shouzhe nodded and said, "I will write a letter at night and you will reply tomorrow.
Take it to the county seat."
"Yes, fourth brother." Wang Shouye also knew that what Qian Xuehan said was of great importance, so he immediately took the chariot back on the grounds of visiting relatives.
Now that Fourth Brother has made his decision, he doesn't need to be nervous anymore.
Wang Shouye's mission is to refine elixirs well. His fourth brother is much better at taking charge of important matters in the family than he is.
At this moment.
Liu Ruolan had already settled her two children. She virtuously cooked with her own hands and prepared a few side dishes. She said like a eldest sister-in-law: "Uncle Qi, it's rare for you to come back. I'll have a drink with your fourth brother later."
Cup, brothers, please have a good chat."
Wang Shouye's face suddenly turned pale. Oops~, the fourth sister-in-law took action too quickly, and the reinforcements he had invited had not arrived yet.
