Chapter 38: The Rong family's dilemma
On the streets of Lancheng, a swarthy teenager went on a rampage along the way, causing the people to scold him. Followed by a young man with a country's face, he apologized as he ran.
The swarthy boy is naturally Meng Yuan. Meng Yuan scolded himself for being too stupid, how could he patronize himself and lose the bear. Di Yu comforted: "Don't worry, it has so many life-saving treasures on it, it shouldn't be fine." ”
Meng Yuan scolded: "Fart, don't you look at what kind of place this is, can you compare it with those poor and remote places? Blame the she-bear, wouldn't it be much more convenient to bring it to a baby who can hold live things." I can't go anywhere with a bear!"
Meng Yuan turned several alleys and didn't see the red panda, and suddenly saw the flow of people on the street going in one direction, so he was puzzled and followed. When he reached his destination, he found that the red panda was being kept in a cage and teased like a plaything. It's so annoying that the fool is still having a lot of fun. Meng Yuan was just about to rush over to save the bear but found a person, a person you won't forget as long as you see him - Li Wenjing.
When Di Yu saw Li Wenjing, his strange tone and the appearance of a thief's eyebrows and mouse face exploded in an instant, and he looked like he was going to rush over to kill someone. Meng Yuan scolded: "It's useless for you to kill him now, calm down, don't miss a big thing." ”
After a while, Rong Haoran followed and asked, "Brother Meng, what happened?"
Meng Yuan didn't speak, staring at Rong Haoran with a pair of eyes. Rong Haoran was a little uncomfortable by him, and said angrily: "Why do you look at me like this?"
Meng Yuan turned his head and glanced at the red panda again, feeling that this fool should not be in any danger for the time being, so it was time to get down to business. said to Rong Haoran: "Brother Rong, my brother wants to discuss a major matter with you. ”
Rong Haoran nodded and said, "I knew that you had something to say to me in Xunlanju just now. Seeing your mysterious appearance, why don't you go to my house and talk. ”
The Rong family is a big family in Lancheng, and except for the City Lord's Mansion, no one dares to be presumptuous in front of the Rong family. Generally, a city will have several large families, and the duty of the city lord's mansion is to balance the power of these families as much as possible. After all, once there was a scuffle between the families, it would always be their City Lord's Mansion that would always be lost. But Lancheng is an exception, the Rong family is dominant, and even covers up the reputation of the city lord's mansion. It stands to reason that as the lord of a city, he will definitely not tolerate this happening, although the city lord of Kelan City is not a member of the Rong family, he has a close relationship with the Rong family, so he will tolerate the dominance of the Rong family. It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, I don't know if it was providence or man-made, every 60 years in the distribution of cultivation resources, although the Rong family got the largest share of a spiritual mine, but in the end it was found that it was a fake mine. The so-called fake ore is only a layer of spirit stone on the surface, and then it is all waste stone, and it cannot be used for cultivation at all.
The development of a family, in addition to its own lineage, the elders with foreign surnames are also very important. But why would a cultivator from a dignified family serve the family is because the family can provide cultivation resources.
Casual cultivation, especially those with a little strength, are cunning and cunning, but if they lose a little of their own interests, he will pick on you. After the Rong family was unable to provide cultivation resources, four of the eight Yuanying elders left. The other four have either stayed in the Rong family for a long time and don't want to change places, or they have some kind of relationship with the Rong family, or they have their own strength, and they may not mix well when they break away from the Rong family.
Fortunately, the Rong family still has some accumulation in recent years, and they can barely maintain it by eating their old capital. It's really not good, isn't there still a good master like Chen Yongsi? But cultivation is too resource-intensive. Although the lord of the city is the lord of a city, he actually works for others.
Above the city lord there is the county shepherd, and above the county shepherd there is the state shepherd, and above the state shepherd is the supreme lord - the royal family. There are seventeen states in the human world, but there is not only one royal family, but the situation of seven emperors. There are four states with a large royal family, and only one state with a small power. But among the seventeen states, only one state is the most special - Shangzhou.
Shangzhou does not belong to any royal family and belongs to the disorder area. However, despite being called the Discord Zone, the order of the Shang Prefecture is comparable to that of the Rite Prefecture. Although it is an exaggeration to say that the road is not left behind, it is not much worse. Because, the people of Shangzhou are so rich one by one. It can be said that any person pulled out of Shangzhou is richer than some rich people in the city.
In order to solve the dilemma, the Rong family thought of a lot of ways, but it was still difficult to make up for this gap, until Feng Zhicheng came to the door to unite. Feng Zhicheng can occupy a city and have enough resources. Although Rong Haoran hated Feng Zhicheng's actions and was unwilling to go along with him, the chips given by Feng Zhicheng were too tempting. The interests of the family always take precedence over personal honor and disgrace. In the end, Rong Haoran still accepted this result.
In Rong Haoran's study, Meng Yuan looked around, it was not extravagant, and it was even a little simple. The young master of a dignified family, the next patriarch, only a simple bed and chair, a few paintings and calligraphy in the room. When Meng Yuan entered the Rong Mansion, he used his soul power to urge his divine sense, and borrowed the jade pendant to carefully observe the cultivation of the people in the Rong Mansion. According to his observations, there were now six Yuan Infant cultivators in the mansion. Rong Haoran counts one, his father counts as one, and the rest is afraid of four elders.
Meng Yuan was the first to speak: "Brother Rong is bold, so I won't beat around the bush." I also know a lot about the situation in your Rong Mansion, and if you want to solve the current predicament, it is not a good idea to seek skin with the tiger. ”
Rong Haoran understood what Meng Yuan meant when he heard it, and said, "Since Brother Meng said this, he has his own good suggestions, let's listen to it." ”
"It's naturally not feasible to seek skin with a tiger, but what if you eat a tiger?" Meng Yuan stared at Rong Haoran with a pair of eyes, observing his every move.
Rong Haoran suddenly laughed and said, "Sister Ouyang really deserves to be the first beauty in Selangor, and it is really amazing that she can pull a character like Brother Meng off the horse." ”
Meng Yuan also laughed and said, "Brother Rong thinks that I am dazzled by beauty and can't tell the situation clearly?" Rong Haoran didn't speak, obviously agreeing with this.
Meng Yuan continued: "Ouyang Yanran is a beauty, yes, but let me work hard for the beauty, I am not stupid to that point." I think Brother Rong must be very curious about my identity..."As he spoke, he took out a yellow spirit stone and placed it on the table. Meng Yuan thought to himself, if you know the goods, you must think that my identity must be unusual, then I will take the initiative. Who knows, Rong Haoran looked at the yellow spirit stone and still didn't speak.
Meng Yuan understood after thinking about it, and secretly scolded Ouyang Yanran for being a slut, and he actually gave gems to everyone he saw. He thought he would give it to him alone. I secretly decided in my heart that after the matter was completed, I must let her serve me well, seven times a night.
Meng Yuan knew that a yellow spirit stone could not impress Rong Haoran, so he directly took out ten yellow spirit stones. This moment can surprise Rong Haoran. Ouyang Yanran had given him spirit stones, he was very surprised at the time, but he could also understand it, after all, there are always some children of big families who are dazzled by beauty, and it is also predictable to send one or two spirit stones to the beauty, but the ten yellow spirit stones in front of him are different. Even if a small spirit mine is all mined, it may not be as many as ten. If the Rong family has these ten spirit stones, they will definitely be able to persist until the next resource allocation. Looking at the spirit stone, he was moved, not by Meng Yuan's proposal, but...
Meng Yuan sneered: "I advise Brother Rong to put away other thoughts, since I dare to take it out, I have the confidence to take it out." That's right, I was forced into exile because I made a mistake in my family. But even so, it's not like you little Fulan County can handle me. ”
Rong Haoran looked up to the sky and laughed wildly, sacrificed his halberd and said, "Please." ”
Meng Yuan knew that this guy was going to test himself and sacrifice the snake queen to meet the challenge.
