The He family was also one of the twenty-two families that year. At first, they were not conspicuous at all, but when the other families were enjoying the glory and wealth after success, the head of the He family at that time was desperate to invest in the children of the clan to study the imperial examination, and even the kind of "waste of money" was secretly ridiculed by the other families.

But it turns out that if you can be an official, you can have everything. With the emergence of endless scholars in He's house, the He family had the last laugh and has gradually become dominant in Jingjiazhuang.

Looking at Yunxi's Yun family on the other hand, in addition to inheriting the official position of the inspection, the juniors are not angry, and they are completely ignored by the other families. In fact, by the time Yun Xi's father's generation arrived, the rest of the Yun family had already fled completely, and the position of the owner of the Jing family village was like a crater, maybe one day it would be occupied by ambitious people, and the entire Yun family would end up dead and annihilated.

In fact, even Yun Xi's father, Yun Hailong, had long wanted to escape, with the inheritance left by his ancestors, where could he not live a peaceful life? The official position of the inspector and the position of the owner, who wants to take it, and the fool will be willing to live that frightened life?

But what he didn't expect was that Yun Hailong didn't want it, and He Fu and several other families insisted on him to sit. Not only are several families fighting for each other, but the interests of Jingjiazhuang have been carved up, and even the patrol is full of people from several other families, leaving a false name, and there is nothing unusual. After all, private metallurgy is not very in line with the king's law, and maybe one day the imperial court will settle the general account. Keep the few heads of the Yun family, and you may be able to deal with it when the time comes.

Under such a background, He Guanzhang asked someone to make a deal with Yun Hailong. It is more correct to say that it is a transaction.

Yun Hailong only has his only daughter, Yun Xi, and he is going to find a man to join the Yun family in the future. Therefore, he has carefully cultivated Yun Xi since he was a child, mainly to manage the remaining industries of the Yun family. Rotten ships also have three points of nails, and the Yun family also has some industries.

However, He Guanzhang hoped that Yun Hailong would agree to marry Yun Xi to his eldest son He Wenqian, promising to ensure that Yun Hailong would be rich and safe for the rest of his life, and that after Yun Hailong died, he would transfer the inspection and the position of the owner to the He family. On the one hand, there can be a smooth transition; On the other hand, the reputation to the outside world is also much better, after all, the face is not forcible grabbing.

At this time, He Wenqian had been bedridden for a long time. Originally, I wanted to marry Qinggui Wenchen, but now it is impossible, marrying Yunxi has that kind of joy, and it is more for the sake of Yunxi's ability to manage the industry.

For such an order, the Yun family must be unable to resist. So Yun Xi reluctantly sat in a sedan chair to marry the sick seedling, and sure enough, only three days after marrying, He Wenqian swallowed his last breath, and Yun Xi changed from a bride to a widow in the mood for love.

Fortunately, He Guanzhang still felt a little guilty, and because Yun Xi showed enough ability, he trusted Yun Xi quite a lot, making Yun Xi the de facto manager of the He Mansion.

In the He Mansion, there are also relatives and differences, Yun Xi is He Guanzhang's daughter-in-law after all. Yunxi is in charge of the industry, which is equivalent to those industries are He Guanzhang's. What's especially better is that Yun Xi is still a woman, and all sources of power are attached to He Guanzhang, so she doesn't dare to be serious at all, otherwise she can be replaced with a word. After all, He Guanzhang is in the capital, and the emperor is far away, so he has no energy or possibility to manage the trivial affairs of the He Mansion.

The DPRK and the Central Government are officials, and the powerful and wealthy people are indispensable. Don't you see, Zhang Siwei, who has just been the first assistant, his family is a big salt merchant in Shanxi? Another example is Li Dongyang, the first assistant of the former courtier, after he went to high school, he raised in the Hanlin Academy for 27 years, and his family was full of guests every day, so he made friends all over the world, wasn't he supported by a wealthy businessman in the family? Therefore, He Guanzhang has long thought about taking the path of his predecessors, his qualifications and connections are already qualified, if he can still have the financial resources in the clan to help, who dares to say that he will have no chance to enter the cabinet, or even the hope of the first assistant?

And in Yunxi in Laizhou City, she is also slowly getting used to this kind of life, and she has already regarded herself as the He family. And as the power in her hands grows, she also has ambitions - the glory of her great-grandfather Yun Feihu will be reproduced in her own hands!

The rivers and lakes are small worlds, and they must be divided for a long time. After nearly a hundred years of peace, Jingjiazhuang is now in turmoil.

And the Ming Dynasty has Datong, Tianjin Wei (Tangshan) in the north, and Foshan in the south, the three major iron smelting bases, by the way, if you add the capital, including Foshan to supply iron to Macao, this is also the Ming Dynasty's four major weapons to build a base. If you don't count the remote areas of Shangyun, Guichuan, there are Xuzhou, Nanyang in the Central Plains, Wuhu and other iron smelting bases in Huguang, and Laizhou is sandwiched among them, which can be described as external and internal troubles. Therefore, if he wants to compete with those "foreign enemies", the first thing Yunxi wants to do is to let the He family unify the Laizhou iron smelting industry.

……

At the back of the team, Lu Ming and Tie Sheng were also discussing the competition just now: "Tiezi, how did you feel just now?" Why do I think you're falling behind? ”

Tie Sheng smiled and shook his head: "It is difficult to distinguish the winner within a hundred moves, and you will win outside a hundred moves." Tie Sheng is still confident. On the one hand, he has a lot of strength, and on the other hand, he just doesn't adapt.

"A hundred moves?" Lu Ming was surprised. Among the three of them, the senior brother Feng Suo has the strongest knife skills, Lu Ming has the best gun skills, and when it comes to fist and foot kung fu, it is Tie Sheng who is the best. Especially when their master's generation is old, do they really talk about hard power? It still depends on their younger generation. If it's just a blade, the victory or defeat is in an instant, it may still depend on experience, but the fists and feet are only young and vigorous. This is the fist is afraid of the young and strong, and the stick is afraid of the old wolf.

Tie Sheng's evaluation is also very objective: "Senior brother, that person's tricks are very strange, but everything is changing, just adapt slowly." So I thought that I would ask for more advice in the future, and if I had a few more chances to fight, I would never be as sad as I was just now. ”

"Oh!" Lu Ming was also interested, "Call it out when you learn in the future." Eh, who's that guy? ”

"Eh!" Tie Sheng clapped his hands, "I forgot to ask." ”

"Forget it. I can't get out of this Laizhou City, so let's inquire slowly in the future. ”

"That's just as well."

It's not like Yun Xi, He Wenxian, and Uncle Lai, who think that those who know martial arts are almost the same. Zhenwei Sanying is all famous in the rivers and lakes, they are all first-class masters, so the evaluation of Qin Bai is particularly high.

……

At this time, in Qin Bai's house, broken silver was thrown all over the ground. Li Ying's face was pale, and he looked at Qin Bai with his sick body, and saw Qin Bai slapping the table and yelling angrily: "Dare!" You bastard! ”

As soon as I arrived at home, I learned that as soon as Qin Bai and the others went out, Li Dang went to Qiu Bo to sell himself to pay off his debts, and now he has already gone to Jingjiazhuang Niu Sanye, and more than an hour has passed......
