Chapter 63: The Clan Meeting
Achieving a dream is never easy.
It requires a lot of effort, even sacrifice.
Researching a bloodless path suitable for the cultivation of the human race is something that countless geniuses have dreamed of tirelessly since tens of thousands of years of human history, so why did the bloodless people only need to cultivate to the boiling blood realm before the stone was opened up, and they still need to rely on luck?
Because that in itself is quite a difficult road!
Why can Shi Kaihuang break through twice in a row?
Because he stood on the foundation of his predecessors, and because he had Su Shen's help.
And where did Su Shen's help come from? In addition to the knowledge of the relics, more came from all kinds of repeated experiments and a large number of experiments that consumed resources.
Shi Kaihuang doesn't spend money to do research, but that's because all the things that cost money are handled by Su Shen.
This is also the reason why Shi Kaihuang handed over the sale to Su Shen, because he knew that Su Shen was the most suitable for this.
Therefore, it can be said that a lot of money is a very important foundation for the bloodless road to come to the present, and it will be even more important in the future, because the knowledge of the predecessors that can be cited is becoming less and less, and every road Su Shen must go to and experiment by himself, and every road, even if it is to prove it wrong, needs to spend a lot of resources!
It all takes money!
Su Shen is very aware of the advantages of his research.
Compared with countless ancients over the past tens of thousands of years, his biggest advantage is that he has a subtle eye, second, he has inherited the knowledge of many predecessors, and third, he has a lot of money.
But even so, Su Shen was struggling on the path of bloodless impact shaking, and he didn't know when he would be able to complete this step.
In this case, without money, it is even more hopeless.
More than 100 million seems like a lot, but it may not be enough to smash it all here.
So, how could Su Shen just give it to the Gu family?
Shi Kaihuang has long said: The oath made for women is destined to be broken for women.
Su Shen was very glad that his dream was no longer because of Gu Qingluo under the guidance of Shi Kaihuang, so he would not choose to spend money to buy Gu Qingluo.
Of course, this doesn't mean that he will give up Gu Qingluo, it's always okay to throw a small amount of money.
So he said, "I'm not going to spend more than 10 million source stones on this matter. ”
Gu Jintang collapsed: "This is troublesome." Although 10 million is a lot, it may not be easy to settle my uncle's old fashion. Even if he is leveled, he may not be a group of old antiques in the family. ”
"How can Qingluo's marriage, in addition to the head of the Gu family nodding, do you want a bunch of people up and down the Gu family to nod?" Su Shen asked.
Gu Jintang replied: "The seventh sister is the daughter of the uncle, under normal circumstances, it is natural for the uncle to nod." The problem is, if she marries Zhou Qingma, that's normal, and if she marries you, it's not normal. It's called marrying ......!"
“……”
After thinking for a while, Su Shen said to Gu Jintang: "Tell me about your Gu family, I need information about them, the more complete the better." ”
Gu Jintang looked embarrassed: "This is not very good, although you are not the enemy of the Gu family, but just tell you the details of the Gu family, there are still some suspicions of betrayal, how can I do something to betray the family." ”
Su Shen took out a card, an ordinary source card from the Huitong Treasure number, with a full value of 50,000 cards, and it was such a full-value source card that was placed in front of Gu Jintang's desk at the moment.
Gu Jintang still shook his head: "You look down on me, I'm not looking down on me, I'm not doing it for money, I really can't do it." ”
Su Shen took out another one.
This is 100,000 source stones.
Gu Jintang was a little annoyed: "I have a bottom line in life, don't you want to be like this, okay?"
Su Shen took out another one.
Gu Jintang was heartbroken: "You are embarrassing me!"
Su Shen took out another one: "You know that Qingluo can also tell me this, and it's free." ”
Gu Jintang swiped the four cards and put them away:
"The head of the Gu family is now my eldest uncle, Gu Xuanmian, but he is only responsible for daily affairs. In fact, above the head of the family, there are clan associations and ancestors. The clan will be responsible for some important matters, including the appointment and dismissal of the head of the family, sacrifices, whether to wage a glorious war with a nobleman, etc., and of course, the fate of individual clansmen. The ancestors usually don't care about things, and if they want to take care of it, they just ask their relatives to send a message: What resources do I want today, what resources do I want tomorrow, why haven't the resources I want yet arrived? Of course, there will be occasional whimsical travels, and no one knows when to leave and when to return, so you don't have to think about it, just look at destiny. ”
"The marriage of the seventh sister is a daily life, and the uncle is responsible for it, but if she marries bloodless, it is two different things. The bloodline nobles attach great importance to the bloodline, and it is just a matter of the high-level marrying the low-level, and marrying the bloodless will be regarded as humiliation, and when it is spread outside, it will be regarded as a manifestation of the family's middle and fall. In the words of the old men......"
Gu Jintang pinched his throat and hit a castanets with chopsticks:
"This is going to get out, what kind of face will my Gu family have in the future to gain a foothold in Haoxi? I'm afraid that those who used to be eyeing my Gu family will come over to try whether my Gu family's teeth are still hard. Even if you don't have a grudge, you dare to come up and provoke three points!"
Speaking this, Gu Jintang returned to his normal voice, leaned in front of Su Shen and said:
"By the way, are you interested in getting rich? If you are willing to get rich, the difficulty will be lower, at least the old men can get by on face. ”
Su Shen shook his head.
Gu Jintang continued:
"Then it can't be helped. As long as this matter is brought up, it will definitely have to be brought up by the clan association. Gu Qingluo marries you, and the Gu family's face is damaged, which means that their face is damaged. How can they agree to something that is harmful to them and not beneficial?"
When he spoke, he didn't even pause, and Su Shen was helpless.
After thinking about it, Su Shen asked, "How many people will there be in the clan?"
Gu Jintang replied: "The previous generations of the Gu family are quite capable of giving birth, my father and my uncle have six brothers and sisters in this generation, seven grandparents, and three later died, and the descendants of those uncles and grandfathers add up to more than forty, but only fourteen have entered the clan association." In addition, there were seven great-grandfathers, five died, and now there are two left, oh yes, there is also a high ancestor, who is my grandfather's grandfather. They also have descendants, but their descendants all belong to the divided family and do not return to the main family, but they themselves still have a seat in the main family. So it's twenty-seven. ”
Su Shen was dumbfounded when he heard this: "Then your old ancestor is your great ancestor?"
"No!" Gu Jintang shook his head: "I said it all, the ancestor is not in the clan association, but the clan association also has to listen to him." The ancestor should be my grandfather's grandfather's grandfather, this year it should be more than four hundred, I can't remember the specifics, there are many people, and I am also messy. ”
