Chapter 76: Pretending to be Dead and Selling Alive

The Shuanghu Rong Family was looted of people, wealth, and goods, which actually had little to do with the Pingyang Zhang Family.

The business of Wangbei Manor between the two sides had already been completed, and the money and goods were settled.

You suffered a disaster, it is a sentiment for me to help, and it is my duty not to help.

But for the two playboy sons Rong Anshan and Rong Anqiu, without the help of the local snake Pingyang Zhang Family.

Wanting to recover the loss by their own ability was truly a daydream.

In desperation, they could only report the looting of the manor to the family.

The ten thousand young and strong slaves lost, the cheap ones were twenty taels of gold each, and those with skills were fifty percent or even double that,

The hundreds of manor guards were not worth anything.

Anyway, with the gold-lettered signboard of the Shuanghu Rong Family, they wanted to recruit ordinary Ding-grade and Bing-grade cultivators, and there were as many as they wanted.

But being able to manage hundreds or thousands of manpower.

Planning the production, business, and livelihood of a manor the size of a town, management talent was a priceless treasure.

The Shuanghu Rong Family had not accumulated two or three hundred such talents in a hundred years of gathering and management.

If it weren't for the feeling that everything is difficult at the beginning.

In order to successfully take root in the Ming Song Southern Kingdom in one fell swoop and complete the family's transformation from imperial merchant to famous aristocratic family.

It was impossible to invest such a heavy cost in manpower.

Now that it's gone, it's a real loss.

So Rong Anshan and Rong Anqiu sent a "Flying Sword Message" at noon, and the family's reinforcements arrived in the afternoon...

The Shuanghu Rong Family is an imperial merchant, and since the ancestor gained power, the backer has been the emperor.

So although the family is not famous for its military power, the entry-level technique cultivated is quite good.

Anyone surnamed Rong, regardless of cultivation aptitude, cultivates "Heavenly Gallop Like Thunder Sword."

The reason is not because this method is fierce in attack, and the sword is like thunder descending.

But because cultivators who cultivate "Heavenly Gallop Like Thunder Sword" can send flying sword messages thousands of li a day.

Small success in cultivation can allow imperial sword flight of a thousand li a day.

And for merchants, the ability of the person in charge to communicate personally and at any time over long distances and move at low cost and speed is truly an indispensable tool for success.

As for high-end techniques like "Heavenly Gallop Like Thunder Sword," if you want to cultivate it, the corresponding aptitude must also be top-notch.

Those who are mediocre and cultivate this method will delay their lives, so they are not considered.

After all, being a running dog under someone else's door is not that easy.

Since enjoying the convenience of leaning against a big tree to enjoy the cool.

It is natural to take serving the master better as the first requirement.

Wangbei Manor management hall.

Because the surrounding flowers and plants were pulled out by Rong Anshan when he pretended to be a person who didn't like vanity and was pragmatic and willing to work.

Now it is completely deserted, appearing desolate and miserable.

In the hall.

Rong Anshan looked at the head of the family reinforcements who was nominally here to support but actually here to question.

He forced a smile and talked nonsense about how he had done his best for the family from the beginning of last year until the first lunar month.

How he finally found time on New Year's Eve to go to Siyang Commandery City to handle relationships.

As a result, such a big mistake occurred.

The leader of the Rong family reinforcements was a man in his thirties, named Rong Yexiang.

Although according to the Rong family's generation characters, "Acceptance, Industry" section, he should be the nephew generation of Rong Anshan and Rong Anqiu.

Actually, he is not a blood descendant of the Shuanghu Rong Family.

But because the family has been successful for a short time and the population is not prosperous, they choose orphans with high intelligence and talent to enter the family register.

Speaking of which, they are written into the genealogy, and they are all descendants of the Shuanghu Rong Family.

The monthly interest silver and the cultivation technique treatment from childhood to adulthood are all the same.

It's just that for a hundred years, there has not been a single such adopted son or his descendants who could become a family elder in the Rong family.

And Rong Yexiang is considered the most outstanding one among the "Industry" generation of adopted sons.

Entered the Way of "Heavenly Gallop Like Thunder Sword" at eighteen.

Broke the Eighth Rank at twenty-nine and entered "Bing Shao."

Even if the Shuanghu Rong Family values profit over power, this transcendent world has a tradition of "great power belongs to the individual."

It is really not easy to suppress someone with such outstanding cultivation talent.

So he is thirty-three years old this year and has already climbed to the position of "Second Cabinet."

This time he was arranged by the big boss behind the scenes to "support" Rong Anshan and Rong Anqiu, but he had other plans.

But people with brains do things, and they will never be rash.

Clearly guessing that Rong Anshan's story was full of nonsense, Rong Yexiang still didn't ask any questions, and his attitude was peaceful.

After Rong Anshan finished telling the story full of flaws, he opened his mouth:

"Clan Uncle Anshan is indeed a capable talent in the clan.

It seems that the looting of Wangbei Manor this time is truly God's will.

I don't know if you said that because of human feelings, you didn't return to Wangbei Manor from Siyang Commandery City until after the tenth of the first lunar month.

Was it ten something?"

"Twelve or thirteen, maybe fourteen, these days I have been racking my brains for this matter, my head, my head..."

As he spoke, Rong Anshan suddenly trembled and fainted directly.

He used to scoff at this "pretending to be seriously ill in big events" method.

But now that he used it himself, he was very skilled and realistic.

Rong Yexiang was stunned when he saw this, his eyes were a bit angry, but he had no way to deal with it.

Rong Anshan's own father and grandfather were both very important figures in the Shuanghu Rong Family, and if he couldn't catch the evidence that could truly press him to death,

He couldn't act rashly.

So Rong Yexiang could only turn his gaze to Rong Anqiu.

And this big young master who could compete with Rong Anshan, his father's generation was naturally the backbone of the Rong family's high level.

Although his strength was slightly insufficient compared to Rong Anshan's family, because his position was in the middle and he didn't offend anyone, he was even harder to provoke.

Rong Yexiang sighed secretly and tried to soften his tone, "Clan Uncle Anqiu, you are with."

But before he could say a few words, Rong Anqiu had already fainted on the chair just like Rong Anshan.

Even if he had a premonition that this trip to Siyang Commandery would be very tricky,

But the two "An-generation double heroes" of the Shuanghu Rong Family, Rong Anshan and Rong Anqiu, actually acted so shamelessly, which was far beyond Rong Yexiang's expectations.

He finally had to completely give up the luxury of getting some clues about the "Wangbei Manor looting" from the most important parties.

Starting from scratch...

Counting the time, in the blink of an eye, the first batch of soldiers recruited by the overseas small state True Dragon Empire had been training for a month.

This morning, it happened to be Sunday.

According to the laws of the True Dragon Kingdom, unless self-employed, the whole country rests.

The Upper Stone Corpse Capital barracks training ground was the focus of attention.

The new soldiers in the training ground had neat steps.

The top one hundred who performed best will accept the refining of the ragtag emperor Zhang Gui and become single stone corpse soldiers.

"Thirty-some days, five-kilometer cross-country running every morning, four hours of goose-stepping.

The formation is finally practiced.

Discipline is also in place."

On the high platform, Zhang Gui looked at the little soldiers below and thought with relief in his heart.

And today, his chest is painted with the sun, moon, stars, mountains, dragons, and flowers;

The back is embroidered with the Zongyi, algae, fire, powder rice, axe, and Fu patterns;

Five colors are applied to five colors;

Crown tassels, black robes, and smoked skirts are complete, with twelve patterns on them.

It is the imperial appearance of the ancient emperor!
