Fifteen days later, Tang Dynasty Chang'an.

Representatives of the six major aristocratic families have returned to the imperial capital. This time the aristocratic families competed with the royal family, the two sides seemed to have a draw. However, if you think about it carefully, you will find that the aristocratic families lost.

The earth that was swallowed was spit out again.

Empty granaries need to be returned to the treasury.

Although only 20% needs to be returned, this 20% base is too large and involves the entire world, so there will be some quarrels between the families.

When facing the royal family, the interests of the family are the same. However, behind closed doors, each other's interests are equally unyielding.

On this day, in the palace of the prince.

The five surnames and the Seven Hopes gathered together, and each aristocratic family also sent people. As representatives of the Hebei delegation, Zheng Guanyu and others needed to accept the common questions from all the aristocratic families.

The first one to speak is always the prince.

The Wang family in the world originated from Taiyuan, and its branches have stretched for thousands of years. This is a behemoth ethnic group, and the Wang family has always regarded itself as the leader of the family.

The strength of his family is indeed very strong. It once had the glory of "the king and the horse share the world", and the word "king" refers to the Langya Wang family, which can only be regarded as a branch of the Taiyuan Wang family.

It is only a branch, but it can rule the world together with the Sima family of the Jin Dynasty. This shows that the Wang family of Taiyuan is powerful and its position as a powerful family is not unearned.

It's a pity that this family is too proud.

The glory of their ancestors for thousands of years and the power passed down by their family make them feel that no one in the world can challenge them, so they always regard themselves as the leaders of the family.

For example, for today's question, all the aristocratic families must gather together with the Wang family, and the Wang family will be the first to speak up and ask their slightly unhappy questions.

The person who asked the question was an elder of the Wang clan. There was a hint of domineering in his words, and he directly said to the six young people: "You all tell me, what did you do on this trip?"

The representatives of the six aristocratic families looked at each other and signaled for Zheng Guanyu to come forward to answer, because when they were in Hebei, Zheng Guanyu was mainly responsible for the negotiations.

However, Zheng Guanyu was an outlier from an aristocratic family. He glanced at his mouth and said that he would not urinate in Wang's pot. The other five young people looked helpless and could only change Cui Zhai's responsibility to report.

But when he saw Cui Zhai coming out of the crowd, he bowed without saying a word, then slowly opened his mouth, recounting the events in Hebei one by one.

Unfortunately, before he could say a few words, the Wang clan leader suddenly snorted coldly and said displeasedly: "You want to return 20%? How can you have the face to come back?"

Cui Zhai immediately stood on the spot, feeling anger rising in his heart.

However, he had a humble and gentle personality and did not directly show his anger. Instead, he cupped his hands towards the Wang family elder and said with a reminder: "Before this negotiation, the Tianxia family has set a bottom line. Whether it is acres of land or grain, it can be returned."

The royal family has 30%, and we have directly helped the family save 10% through arduous negotiations. This is a meritorious move, why do we still need to be scolded? This elder of the Wang family, please take back what you just said."

He said without waiting for the other party to argue, and then added: "And on this trip to Hebei, your Wang family's Young Master Lingyun is also going. If you think that our negotiations are unfavorable, you can blame your own juniors. As for what you want to blame,

We, please forgive Cui Zhai for refusing to agree. Our Cui family of Qinghe is also a member of the family. Even if I do something wrong, it is not your turn to blame me."

These words were sonorous and powerful, and the Wang family member who spoke of them was red-faced. It was obvious that the old man could not get off the stage, and he suddenly said forcefully: "Since you think your negotiation was successful, then you, the Cui family of Qinghe, will be responsible for returning this wealth."

Cui Zhai immediately turned cold and said calmly: "I am a junior, and it would be rude to argue with you, but I still want to ask you, what kind of thing do you think you are, an old guy?"

He suddenly became fierce and shouted, his eyes widened in anger, and he asked loudly: "Do you have the final say in the Wang family? You are just a clan elder. I am the direct son of the Cui family in Qinghe, and I am the one who can inherit the throne.

People in the position of family head. Looking at the entire Wang family, there are only two people who can talk to me. One is your family head Wang Si, and the other is your direct son Wang Lingyun. Apart from the two of them, who dares to tell me what to do?"

The old Wang clan's face was livid, and he subconsciously raised his hand and pointed at him, saying: "You, you, you are an insult to elegance..."

How could Cui Zhai let him fight back? He fought back instantly and shouted: "I was polite to you just now, not because I care about you being the elder of the Wang family. What I respect is your age, but you are disrespectful to this kind of elder."

Situation, I, Cui Zhai, happened to learn a movement in Hebei. It was taught by a little brother. I think this movement is very wonderful, so I will let you see it now..."

After he said these words, he suddenly raised his hand, suddenly popped out a middle finger, gave the old thing a sharp raise, and said loudly: "I'm confused!"

At the same time, the other four young people stepped forward together, almost in unison, each raised their middle finger and said loudly: "We are confused too!"

Only the young master of the Wang family did not come forward with a wry smile on his face.

It was only after the five young masters raised their middle fingers that Mr. Wang sighed and said to several people: "Can't you save some face for me? You have to do this in front of everyone."

As a result, Cui Zhai and others sneered and asked him: "Having such an old guy in your family will only bring shame to the entire Wang family. As the direct son, don't you feel angry?"

Wang Lingyun sighed helplessly and said: "He is my elder, I can't just raise my middle finger and say I'm embarrassed."

Zheng Guanyu suddenly grinned and encouraged him mischievously: "He is not your elder, at most he can be regarded as your clan uncle. You are the legitimate son of the Wang family, so why not give him the middle finger? At most you are not embarrassed.

His mother, just worry about his daughter-in-law."

Wang Lingyun was stunned.

After a long while, he turned away with a wry smile and said: "Every one of you will be repaid for your anger."

The other five young masters sneered together and said: "Young masters from a wealthy family, this is a must. Otherwise, cats and dogs will dare to bare their teeth. How will we inherit the position of head of the family in the future? You are such a person yourself, why bother to turn around and say

us?"

Wang Lingyun actually nodded solemnly and said slowly: "This makes sense."

He suddenly turned around, looked at the elder of the clan with a cold face, and said in a deep voice: "Uncle Sixth Clan seems a little tired today. Go home and take a rest. You don't need to participate in today's family gathering.

"

The clan elder was startled at first, then his face became furious and he said, "You dare to drive me away?"

Wang Lingyun's face turned cold and he said solemnly: "If I let you stay any longer, it will be the Taiyuan Wang family's face that will be disgraced."

The elder of the clan became even more furious. He suddenly turned his head and looked upward, furious and said: "Master, did you see this? There must be an explanation for this matter."

But he said that at the top, there were six old guys sitting together, who were the heads of the six clans, and the one in the middle was Wang Si of the Wang family.

The old Wang family member complained to Wang Si. Unexpectedly, Wang Si's face was all leisurely. He suddenly spoke in a calm tone and said: "Since Ling Yun has given the order, you should leave here and go back to rest. He is the legitimate son of the Wang family.

We have the right to expel you."

The Wang family stood stunned on the spot.

His face was covered in black and white.

Fortunately, this was the Wang family's home court, and someone didn't want to embarrass him too much, so they quickly stepped forward and tried to persuade him to go out.

From the beginning to the end, the six old guys sitting at the top were watching with cold eyes. It was not until the clan leader was dragged away that one of the clan leaders slowly shook his head and said with a mocking tone: "You Wang family is really a big family and a big business..."

The implication is self-explanatory, but it refers to the meaning of "there are all kinds of birds in the forest".

Wang Si sighed and looked a little ugly.

He looked up at Wang Lingyun, and then at the other five young masters. His expression improved slightly, and he suddenly praised: "You and other six people are gentle and elegant. Even when facing the enemy, you can criticize them with sincerity. These are the direct descendants of our family."

Young Master, this is the next generation of our family."

The six young men did not dare to be rude to him, so they hurriedly raised their hands and said, "Thank you for your compliment."

Wang Si nodded and suddenly said: "This time you are going to Hebei, how do you feel about that boy?"

Unexpectedly, the six young men were startled at first, and then their faces all turned serious. It was Wang Lingyun who took the initiative to speak out and said with a solemn expression: "Please grandpa speak again and take back the nickname of 'boy'. Brother Gu has great ambitions."

Far, he should not be called scornfully and disdainfully..."

Wang Si was stunned by these words, and the other five clan leaders were also stunned.

Wang Si frowned visibly, and said with curiosity: "You six direct sons, how do you think so highly of that little...that Gu Tianya? Especially you, my grandson Lingyun, you have been aloof and arrogant since you were a child, and few people can be attracted by you.

See it in your eyes."

It's okay if he didn't say this, but when he said it, Wang Lingyun suddenly sighed.

The other five young masters laughed loudly, and suddenly each reached into his arms and took out a scroll, saying: "Ling Yun just suffered the loss of being aloof, and was severely slapped in the face by Brother Gu. This time our Hebei group,

Each family has gained a lot, but the price they paid is different, and Ling Yun is the one who was ripped off."

As they spoke, they all raised their book coupons and said loudly: "The secret recipe of red brick, one thousand copies, rare tea, priced at 100,000, this is our purchase price, we made a big profit by buying it, but Mr. Lingyun is more unlucky.

The price he paid has doubled, hahahaha, it’s very interesting.”

Everyone present was from aristocratic families, and all of them were smart people. From their words, everyone could hear a lot of things.

Wang Si's face turned cold, and he suddenly slammed the table and said: "The same thing was sold for two prices, and only I, the Wang family, paid the high price. Isn't this specifically targeting our clan? This son, the Wang family will definitely not be with me.

He’s done with it…”

He suddenly showed his power, and everyone present looked at him. Only Wang Lingyun's expression changed, and he said urgently: "Grandpa, no, no, absolutely no, if you say such nonsense today, it will harm the Wang family if word spreads. That brother Gu has a very stubborn character.

He is more vindictive than us, and if he hears what you said, he may never sell us the secret recipe again."

Wang Si never imagined that it would be his grandson who refuted him.

The old guy glanced at his grandson and said in a deep voice: "If you don't sell the secret recipe, so what? The Taiyuan Wang family has inherited it for thousands of years, and they may not be lacking one or two secret recipes..."

Wang Lingyun took a deep breath and said solemnly: "What I fear the most is comparison. If we cut off our relationship with Brother Gu, we will no longer be able to profit from him, while the other five major families continue to have good relations with him.

, the strength will inevitably become stronger and stronger, others continue to advance, but I stand still. If this continues, the Wang family of Taiyuan will be in decline."

He paused for a moment, looked at Wang Si sincerely, and then said: "This time in our Hebei trip, the six young masters have reached a consensus, that is, we must not offend Gu Tianya. As long as we befriend him, the family will

It can last for eternity..."

Wang Si was immediately moved.

He knew that his direct grandson would never target without aim, so Wang Si's expression suddenly changed and he said solemnly: "That Gu Tianya is really so important?"

Wang Lingyun glanced at the other five people and sighed: "His ancestors are from the Mo family, and he is probably a giant."

Wow!

There was a commotion all over the place.

But I saw countless people standing up subconsciously, with shock on their faces.

The family belongs to the Confucian sect and was once the mortal enemy of the Mohist family. Because they were mortal enemies, they knew the power of the Mohist family best.

That is a school of thought that can turn a poor man into a rich man.

And that Gu Tianya, his ancestor was a giant.
