When Yan Feiyang and Ye Xiaotong were drenched in water in Qingshan Park, in Ding Moshan's villa, the lights in the study were bright.

The community where Ding Moshan lives is invested and built by Dingsheng Group, and it is also the highest-grade community in Yuanping City, and the people living in it are all rich people. Even in this place where rich people gather, Ding Moshan Ding is also the most dazzling among them.

But right now, in the study, Ding Moshan is playing horizontally with each other.

On the main seat, Gongsun Lan sat in the middle, still dressed in a white shirt and jeans, like an ordinary girl on the street.

Ding Moshan secretly wondered in his heart, this is very different from the image of the eldest lady who does not eat fireworks in the world in his mind, what is the reason for such a change in the eldest lady.

But what is certain is that this reason must be important.

Although the eldest lady's makeup has changed, the domineering momentum when the two are alone has not changed at all.

Sitting in front of her, feeling the coercion emanating from the eldest lady, anyone would immediately forget her age and beauty. In the Gongsun family, everyone knows very well that after a hundred years of the old man, the eldest lady will officially take charge of the family.

Although there are other side branch relatives in the Gongsun family, there is no shortage of outstanding leaders, after all, no one can be compared with the old man's only granddaughter.

Ding Moshan is the most unswerving person to follow the old man and the eldest lady.

Back then, he received so much grace from the old man that he had no choice. And there's no need to make any other choice. Even if he is willing to change his course, no matter who he throws to, he will not be able to get a higher status than he is now. More wealth, more trust.

Ding Moshan accompanied him in the left position. On the right, a middle-aged woman in her forties sits at the head. This woman is ordinary-looking, wearing a pair of glasses with deep myopia, which is not at all different from the kind of old aunts and old virgins described in any novel, which makes one have to suspect that those old aunts and old virgins are described in relation to this woman.

This middle-aged woman's face was so rigid that even Gongsun Lan and Ding Moshan were unwilling to stare at her face.

But she is one of the most core members of the entire Gongsun family, and her status within the Gongsun family is not below Ding Moshan at all. It's really about intimacy. Gongsun Erniang is the bloodline of the Gongsun family, the granddaughter of the old man, and the closest cousin of Gongsun Lan.

This old virgin, who has never married, is in charge of the accounts of the Gongsun family.

More efficient than the finance department of any famous large company.

Gongsun Erniang was invited here to report the family's financial situation to Gongsun Lan.

The family's financial situation is not optimistic.

There is no doubt that the profitability of Ding Moshan and the entire Dingsheng Group is growing rapidly every year, and it is the most stable and largest source of income for the entire Gongsun family.

However, the cost is even more terrifying.

Not a PROSPER expense. It is the expense of the entire Gongsun family. The strength of the Gongsun family is far more than what is revealed on the surface, and there are many countless branches, which are intertwined. He lives all over Yidong.

These branches, as long as they ostensibly express their conversion to the Gongsun family, the family will give a certain amount of financial support every year. When something big happens. Naturally, they also had to heed the call of the head of their family and send out competent men. Rushed to Yuanping City to listen to it.

In ancient times, sorcerers sects and families. It is a very tight organization, at that time, thousands of large clans or even thousands of large clans lived together, it was normal, within the family, the hierarchy was strict, the family law was severe, and the patriarch could decide the life and death of the family disciples with a single word.

However, with the development of the times, the convenience of transportation, and the change of the external environment, it is obvious that this kind of large family of thousands of people is no longer suitable for the situation, and many branches and collateral have gradually moved out and spread out in various places.

And the control of these branches, naturally, has dropped significantly, if it weren't for the family core to fund some money every year, then these remote side branches, I'm afraid they would have already set up their own doors.

But these remote side branches, after all, are not the biggest financial funnels.

The real gold-swallowing monster is the core group of the Gongsun family and the core dead soldier cultivation system of the Gongsun family.

This is not the original creation of the Gongsun family, but the method adopted by most sorcerer sects.

When the entire sect and the entire family are too scattered, and it is difficult for the sect and the family core to effectively control these remote branches, the cultivation of the core group and the dead becomes inevitable.

A strong core is undoubtedly the fundamental guarantee for maintaining the appeal of the entire sect or family. As long as those remote side branches feel that at the critical moment, the sect and family are still very reliable and big backers, they will always admit that they are a member of the sect and family, and will take the initiative to contact the core of the sect and family, and the entire gate sect or big family will still be one and not scattered.

The so-called core group, as the name suggests, is naturally the branches closest to the blood relationship of the main family.

And the core strength that is really in the hands of the sect leader or family patriarch is the Dead Warrior Group.

Each sect and family will cultivate its own dead soldiers.

From within the sect and family, select the most talented and capable young people, cultivate them in a unified manner, and manage them in a centralized manner. Like the pro-guard during the warlord melee, equipped with the best weapons, the most rigorous training, and given the highest treatment, this pro-soldier guard can serve the family to the death at critical moments.

This is also a necessary means to ensure that the entire sect or family is always united.

In modern society, there are very few opportunities for these people to be death squads, in fact, the dead groups of various sects and families have now become elite training centers, and all the elites cultivated through the dead groups will be assigned to the best positions and become the core members of the sect or family.

Ding Moshan stood out from the Dead Man Group and finally sat on the high position of chairman of Dingsheng Group.

At the same time, he was also the son-in-law of the Gongsun family.

His wife is the cousin of Gongsun Erniang and the cousin of Gongsun Lan, and she is the closest to the old man's blood relationship. Their grandfather. The old man is also a brother.

Therefore, send the most talented disciples of the sect to the group of dead soldiers. It has become a shortcut for those remote branches to seek development. Every year, in order to enter the quota of the group of dead soldiers, each branch has to fight for the blood.

But this group of dead men. It has become the most money-burning department, it is simply a bottomless pit, swallowing money, and never having enough to eat.

"Miss, I think it is necessary to reduce the scale of the training department next year. If this continues, the company will be overwhelmed. At present, several of our major projects have reached a critical stage, and they are all pure investment. No output yet...... The company's debt ratio is too high, and once an accident occurs, the capital chain will be completely broken, which is a catastrophe......"

Ding Moshan lit a cigarette and said worriedly.

Gongsun Lan doesn't like people to smoke in front of her, but Ding Moshan is an exception. Gongsun Lan allowed him to smoke in front of him, which was also a special kind of "grace".

Gongsun Lan glanced at the second sister, but the expression on Gongsun Erniang's face was still so stiff and did not change in the slightest.

Gongsun Lan, who knows the character of the second sister very well, knows it in her heart. Gongsun Erniang agrees with Ding Moshan's statement.

"Well, then compress it appropriately, but the treatment that these people deserve must not be reduced. That's the bottom line. ”

Gongsun Lan said with a deep groan.

Appropriately reduce the scale of the Dead Men Group, so as not to arouse the suspicion of other side branches, if the treatment of the Dead Men Group is reduced. That would surely cause an uproar. Rumors of a company's financial strain immediately went viral.

Now. It was the critical moment when the old man gradually handed over power to Gongsun Lan, and any rumors that were unfavorable to Gongsun Lan. It must be completely strangled in the cradle.

For those remote branches, at present, we can only use the strategy of Huairou, and the real power of thunder must wait for the eldest lady to officially ascend the throne, and it must be cautious.

After all, times are different!

I thought that the era when the patriarch decided life and death with one word is gone.

"Hmm."

Ding Moshan nodded yes.

"How's the external development project?"

Gongsun Lan has always been more concerned about this matter, Yidong is too poor, and his income is really limited in this one-third of an acre of land. Dingsheng Group is a behemoth in Yidong, and if it is placed in the developed status of the southeast coast, it is at most a medium-sized private enterprise. In such a great era of rapid economic development, if we do not go out, do not go to the whole country and the world, we will be completely eliminated after all.

"It's hard!"

Ding Moshan's brows furrowed even tighter, shook his head slightly, and said.

"Others are very wary of us, and if we are guarded against death, we basically don't give us any chance."

This so-called "others" naturally refers to other sects and families of magicians. Each sect and family has its own "sphere of influence", and the Gongsun family can "claim the king and hegemony" in Yidong, but if you want to cross the border and go to other people's territory to grab food, it is a taboo, and no sect or family will sit idly by.

On this point, Gongsun Lan actually knows better than Ding Moshan.

In the sorcerer's rivers and lakes, the living space of the Gongsun family is really limited. Nowadays, the reason why several surrounding sects and families can still stand still for the time being and not squeeze the Gongsun family is that the key lies in the old man.

Swallow thousands of miles of Gongsun Ba!

Back then, on the rivers and lakes, it was really majestic and indispensable.

It's old now, but the tiger is old and majestic.

Such a super giant, as long as he lives for one day, is a huge threat to other sorcerer sects. Under such a threat, the other sect families would rather wait a few more years than act rashly.

But that's about it.

The old man is in the base camp, and he can suppress those sect families who are about to move and dare not come to Yidong to grab food, but if he wants to go out, he has to rely on the efforts of the younger generations themselves.
