Chapter 13: Secrets
After half a ring, Fang Zongqing explained all the relationships and secrets one by one, which surprised Fang Chong, and secretly sighed that there were so many secrets in it.
It turned out that the Dongmen Fang family and Fang Chong's family were both surnamed Fang, and they were originally of the same clan. Hundreds of years ago, it was a collateral line of the Fang family in Zhaonan County, but after migrating to Ningcang County hundreds of years ago, this generation has actually lost its blood relationship with the Fang family in Zhaonan County for a long time.
However, in terms of genealogy, the Fang family in Ningcang County and the Fang family in Zhaonan County are still the same family, so it is natural that the Fang family in Ningcang County is attached to the Fang family in Zhaonan County, and with the help of the strength of the Fang family in Zhaonan County, other families are deterred to facilitate their own development.
You must know that Zhaonan County is much larger than Ningcang County, and the Fang family of Zhaonan County is also dozens of times stronger than the family power of a county.
The entire Great Qin Dynasty was divided into five counties, namely Qianjiang, Xiahu, Zhaonan, Sheyue, and Yuntai.
Any one of these counties occupies tens of millions of miles of land, the area is extremely vast, and the number of people is also extremely huge, and there are countless powerful families in it, and the Fang family of Zhaonan County is one of those huge families.
And even in Zhaonan County, the Fang family is also a famous family, and it is an existence near the top of the pyramid of power.
The reason why it is said to be close to the top is because there are more powerful counties and armies than the Fang family, which are directly under the power of the Great Qin Dynasty and above many families.
The power of the Zhaonan family is strong, not only reflected in Zhaonan County, but also divided into countless branches, which are spread over many counties under Zhaonan County, just like the countless branches of a big tree, dependent on the big tree to survive, but it is an independent existence......
Fang Chong's mind was spinning around with all kinds of information, trying to digest the meaning, these were actually not difficult to understand, but after all, he was very unfamiliar with these things, and he needed time to summarize them.
After half a ring, he had already cleared out a rough structure in his mind.
This is actually very simple, the Great Qin Dynasty is like a vast country, there are many huge groups in this country, and many families are these huge groups, controlling huge resources, manpower, material resources, etc., standing at the top of the pyramid.
In the group's favorite, there are many local branches, such as Ningcang County Dongmen Fangjia, which belongs to the local branches, is dependent on the group's branches, although independent operation, but the root is still relying on the group, is the group's spokesperson in the local area.
This structure constitutes a system of dynasties, families, and families, with clear hierarchies.
Why did the Dongmen Fang family gain a foothold in Ningcang County from an outsider who had nothing, and why did it go smoothly step by step and become a force that could sit on an equal footing with the Li family and the Huang family?
These are all because of the Zhaonan family, if it weren't for the Zhaonan family to support behind, the Dongmen Fang family would not have been able to develop so rapidly, and it would not have been possible to avoid the suppression and purge of the Wang family, the first family in Ningcang, if there was no Zhaonan County Fang family, the Dongmen Fang family would be a fart.
"In this way, the Fang family of Zhaonan County is the descendant of the Fang family, and they are the patriarchs who hold the power, and our Fang family in the east gate of Ningcang County, as well as our family, are just collateral lines, and they can only be regarded as branches. Fang Zhong completely understood that the Fang family of Zhaonan County was the real behemoth.
As for the Dongmen Fang family, it is just a lackey, relying on the power of the southern family to show off their might.
In fact, Fang Zhong didn't know that in addition to dynasties and families, there was an even more powerful existence, that is, the legendary immortals.
Immortals are beyond the worldly existence, above all the forces in the world, the so-called martial arts or something is not worth mentioning in their eyes, that is, the innate strong in front of the immortals is also a joke, they are not vulnerable at all, if they want to, they can wipe out a large group with a wave of their hands.
This is the immortal, the strength is extremely strong, enough to rise above the world.
This is also the reason why Fang Zongqing was so excited when he heard Fang Chongxin's nonsense that he would meet an immortal, who was supreme in people's hearts and was a legendary figure.
Fang Zongqing was very satisfied with Fang Chong's analysis, and said with a smile: "Yes, that's it, in Ningcang County, our family is a branch of the Zhaonan family like the Dongmen Fang family, but because the Dongmen Fang family is powerful, the Zhaonan family chose to support them, after all, this is an era when the strong are respected." ”
"The era of respect for the strong!" Fang Zhongzhong shook, once again realized the importance of strong force, and couldn't help but smile: "Is this the law of the jungle? Hehe, interesting." ”
The strong are respected, and force is supreme!
With strong force, you can stand out from the crowd, be respected by others, and occupy more resources.
The Dongmen Fang family is like this, they are stronger than Fang Zongqing, and they are naturally more valued by the Fang family of Zhaonan County. Correspondingly, Fang Chong's family has become marginal people, and they can't get any help from the Southern Family.
However, the situation is not a constant one. Fang Zongqing paused and said, "In the same branch, if one of them has a young man with great potential, then the original power structure may be broken. ”
"Oh?"
"For example, in our Ningcang County, you were extremely talented and had great potential, so once you grow up and are favored by the Fang family of Zhaonan County, then you will definitely be focused on cultivation. As the tide rises, our family will naturally become stronger, and may even replace the position of the Dongmen Fang family and become the spokesperson of the Zhaonan County Fang family in Ningcang County. Fang Zongqing said.
Fang Chong listened to the violent beating in his heart, and finally understood the reason.
The reason why the Dongmen Fang family attacked him was because of his superb talent, and the Dongmen Fang family was afraid that he would grow up and be favored by the Zhaonan County Fang family, and finally replace his position.
Therefore, the later events can be explained, in order to cut off the hidden dangers, Fang Hu, the head of the Fang family in the East Gate, instructed Li Hao to abolish Fang Chong's dantian. In this way, the Fang family at the East Gate will be safe, at least there is no need to worry about being replaced, because Fang Zhong has become a waste.
As for Fang Hu not taking action himself, he was afraid that he would be discovered by the Fang family's descendants in Zhaonan County.
In this era, talented young people are the treasures of various families, and if someone in the family is found to attack these treasures, the consequences can be very serious.
Now, everything is clear.
Fang Zhong clenched his fists, sneering in his heart: "Dongmen Fang family, hum, sooner or later I will take revenge." ”
Seeing Fang Chong's appearance, Fang Zongqing suddenly understood, but he didn't stop it, happiness and enmity were what men did, why did he stop it?
In the end, Fang Zongqing just reminded Fang Chong not to be impulsive, but to think slowly.
The Fang family of the East Gate is powerful, and the head of the family, Fang Chong, has reached the realm of second-rate martial artists many years ago, although he has not broken through to the realm of first-rate martial artists until now, his strength is still not weak, and he has definitely reached the peak of second-rate martial artists, even Fang Zongqing himself may not be able to defeat him.
If you want to bring down the Dongmen Fang family, it is not an overnight thing.
.......
Bang bang!
A dull sound sounded in the blacksmith's shop, and a heavy hammer cut an arc through the air, and quickly landed on the red-colored iron on the cutting board, splashing sparks.
"Dad, this black iron material is also a little too bad, so you can't stand the knock, and it will crack if you use a little more force. Fang Zhong said as he knocked on the black iron.
Black iron is the most common metal in the world, the texture is indeed not very good, compared to the steel of Fang Chong's previous life, with his current strength, even if he does not go all out, it is not something that this black iron can bear, and if it is not controlled well, a piece of black iron may be knocked out.
During this time, there were not a few black irons that were knocked out by his brute force.
Hearing Fang Chong's complaint, Fang Zongqing smiled bitterly and said, "You don't want to think about it, the things we build in our shop are all civilian things, what are you doing with such good materials?"
"Moreover, if the materials are ready, the price will be high, and who will spend much silver on the things used to plow the land and cut vegetables?"
"Hehe, this is also ....." Fang Zhongzhong turned, and suddenly laughed, the things used by ordinary people's households, black iron is enough, and it is more than enough to cut vegetables and plow land, only those weapons and other standard things need good materials to forge, in order to pursue a higher grade.
However, Fang Chong's goal was not to cut vegetables and plough the land, he wanted the kind of weapon that could fight to his heart's content in battle, and it was a killing thing.
The weapon made of black iron was a little too chilling.
Seeming to see through Fang Chong's thoughts, Fang Zongqing smiled slightly, and said: "Chong'er, you want to forge weapons, well, I have collected some materials, but the quantity is very small, and it can only be mixed with black iron to forge, but that kind of weapon forging skills are very demanding, and it is difficult for me to control them." ”
"Technically demanding?"
"Yes, forging a good weapon is not the same as making a kitchen knife or something, and without good forging skills, you can't think of forging a good weapon. Fang Zongqing had the intention to popularize knowledge for Fang Chong, and patiently explained: "In Zhaonan County, a good forging master is a noble figure, and many families are rushing to make friends with the forging master. ”
"The weapon forged by a clever forger is called a divine weapon, which sharpens iron like clay, blows hair and breaks hair, and many people rush to buy it even if it is worth thousands of gold. ”
"Hmm. Fang nodded again, and suddenly realized in his heart, a good weapon can have a great effect when fighting, and it can even double the strength of a martial artist out of thin air, or even several times, and it is a life-saving thing at a critical time, what about the value of a thousand gold, it is important to have your own life?
Therefore, he had no doubt about Fang Zongqing's words, the clever forging master was the friend of all martial artists, and he was the object that they had to befriend.
