Chapter 260: The New Order of Jianghai County 2: Gifts
The upper-class people of Jianghai County have basically arrived, and at this time, the Jianghai restaurant is already full of carriages, and these are all famous bigwigs from all walks of life who come to the banquet.
After the Great Melee, the lord of the country reactivated the Wang family, and appointed Wang Yun, the head of the Wang family, as the lord of Jianghai County, Jiang Haihou, hereditary title, and the invitation sent by Wang Yun himself, no one dared not come.
If you don't give face to the Wang family, don't you think your life is long enough?
There are many masters of the Wang family, from Wang Yaowen, the only remaining martial artist in Jianghai County, to countless martial artists, under the condition that Ji Yunlei and Tang Yuan have fallen, the Wang family is now a real family.
Xu Qiming had heard before that the Wang family began to re-activate a few months ago, and while rebuilding the Wang family's compound, he sent troops to capture the three districts, which was almost a few months, and turned the northern district, the central district, and the remaining part of the eastern district (when the Tang family was destroyed before, the Wang family only occupied one-third of the eastern district), and turned it into an area actually controlled by the Wang family.
Of course, because the vitality of the Wang family was greatly injured, Wang Yun also sent a letter to ask Xu Qiming to help, and there will be a heavy reward afterwards, Xu Qiming will certainly not be stingy with his father-in-law, and immediately ordered Xie Hu, who was stationed in the western district, to lead his troops to attack and cooperate with the Wang family to capture the third district.
Even so, the Wang family is the one who has contributed the most.
The Wang family annexed the three districts, and at the same time drastically solved the forces and families that did not obey their orders, and the eight counties of Jianghai County occupied five of them (the five districts in the center of Jianghai County are equivalent to counties, and the locals call them districts), and the momentum is like the sky, who dares not to come in such a situation?
"Wow, there are so many cars..."After getting off the car, standing on the crowded carriage field, Wang Yuan was a little amazed: "Jianghai Restaurant is worthy of being the first in Jianghai County, so many people, except for Jianghai Restaurant, who can accommodate so many people..."
Looking at the towering and huge restaurant not far away, Wang Yuan was a little amazed.
She rarely comes here to eat, so it's normal to be so surprised.
"Your father seems to have chartered this place, and look at these carriages, all of them richly decorated, some of them are drawn by two horses, and they look like big families. Xu Qiming looked around, and it seemed to be very fresh.
That posture is like a leopard that came out of a mountain village to see the world.
"I said you, you are also a character with a head and a face, how can you still be so virtuous?" Wang Yuan glanced at him, looking at his appearance, a little helpless.
"Hehe, I was wrong, I was wrong, Yuanyuan. Xu Qiming smirked and put on a serious expression.
There are so many people here, and Jianghai Restaurant has been chartered, which is enough to see how big Wang Yun is for this.
Of course, the charter is not necessarily a lot of people, when Xu Qiming attacked the West District, he invited the heads of several families, and as a result, the entire West District restaurant was contracted, although a lot of money was spent, but the faΓ§ade was filled, and the charter reflected an atmosphere.
"Qiming, my grandfather and two great-grandfathers will be back in a moment, you have to say hello well. Wang Yuan looked at him, tidied up his clothes for him, and reminded at the same time.
This reminded Xu Qiming that Ouyang Jun had also sorted out his clothes for himself.
"Don't worry, my madam, it's just your two great-grandfathers and my brother, right?" Xu Qiming knew that his great-grandfather was referring to Wang Zhong and Wang Yi, the two predecessors of the Martial Emperor, Wang Yaowen's son, and he didn't know what to call them, so he asked.
"you!" When Wang Yuan heard this, she hammered him with her fist unhappily: "You are my husband, and you have to call your great-grandfather!"
"Yes, yes, all listen to Madame. Xu Qiming said with a smile.
"Okay, let's go, speaking of which, what about my grandfather you haven't seen yet, let's go and see it together. Wang Yuan said, pulling him towards the Jianghai Restaurant.
Wang Yuan's grandfather has not been here in Jianghai County before, after all, the Wang family has a big business, and all counties in Dongzhou have industries, and his grandfather is not here all the year round.
"Yes, I remember that your grandfather has always been on the side of Longhai County, right?" Xu Qiming nodded, he really hadn't seen Wang Yuan's grandfather, but he still asked.
"Yes, he is responsible for the connection between the Wang family and the Bai family, as well as several industries in Longhai County. Wang Yuan explained.
"I see, let's go inside, this meeting is still very important to us in a sense. Xu Qiming then understood, and he had some expectations in his heart.
As soon as he walked not far from the main entrance, Xu Qiming saw a group of people running over on the left, all of them were familiar faces, and they seemed to have been waiting for a long time.
It is Zhao Han and other heads of the Western District.
"See the lord, see the lady!" The heads of the family, led by Zhao Han and some family members, came to Xu Qiming and Wang Yuan, and saluted respectfully, very neatly, attracting passers-by to look sideways, curious about who this young man and woman were.
When they saw Wang Yuan, their eyes widened.
Wang Yuan is dressed very well today, with light makeup, wearing a black Liuxian skirt, plus her own temperament, her temperament as * is revealed at once.
The heads of the family knew who Wang Yuan was, but passers-by didn't know, admiring this beauty, and looking at her hand holding Xu Qiming, they were immediately discouraged, and they all despised him in their hearts.
Xu Qiming doesn't care about this, anyway, Wang Yuan is his own now, and he can't run away, what do you care about other people's eyes?
"Excuse me, you also come to the banquet?" Xu Qiming waved his hand and asked.
"Yes my lord, we have also received invitations. Ma Xiong said respectfully.
"Well, why don't you go in?" Wang Yuan asked curiously.
"If you go back to Madame, I'll wait here for my lord to go in together. "Deng Zheng, the old guy, is divided into priorities, knowing that Xu Qiming will also come, he didn't go in, and the other heads of the family didn't dare to act rashly when they saw that Deng Zheng didn't go in.
You must know that the Deng family led by this old man Deng is a family that has no major incidents after three leaders from the Wang family to the Ji family to the Xu family, on the contrary, it is still very prosperous.
In this way, a group of family heads waited for Xu Qiming and his wife to come.
"Let's go in together. Xu Qiming said.
"Yes, the head of the family, please..." The heads of the family responded, asking Xu Qiming and Wang Yuan to go first, and they followed behind, neither close nor far.
But when Xu Qiming was about to enter Jianghai Restaurant, he was dumbfounded.
There was a long table at the door, and there were several people waiting at the table, and on the table were placed one after another gifts of different sizes and different packaging.
One after another, someone walked in, handed in the gifts, and wrote their names on the red notebook on the table, and then the gifts he gave were handed to another person, and then placed on the pile of gifts.
"Do you want to give gifts?" Xu Qiming saw this. The corners of his mouth twitched, and he didn't expect that his father-in-law was doing something?
"I don't know..."Wang Yuan was also a little stunned, the person who came to deliver the invitation yesterday didn't say that he wanted to prepare a gift...
"Have you all prepared gifts?" Xu Qiming looked back at Zhao Han, Deng Zheng and the others.
"Hmm..." everyone nodded, and each took out the gift they were ready to give to Wang Yun from the storage ring.
"This...."Xu Qiming was a little embarrassed...
"Lord, don't you know?" Deng Zheng asked suspiciously: "Today is the banquet held by the head of the Wang Yun family to celebrate his inauguration as the county lord of Jianghai County..."
"This..."When Xu Qiming heard this, he recalled last night, and there were indeed a few lines in front of him, but he and Wang Yuan were too tired to pay attention.
After all, it is to regain control of Jianghai County, such a big thing, it should indeed be celebrated.
These are no longer important, and now, as Wang Yun's son-in-law and daughter, he and Wang Yuan have not prepared anything to celebrate their father's ascension.
Thinking of this, Xu Qiming was even more embarrassed, and this time the embarrassment was going to be thrown to the top of the entire Jianghai County.
"I'm sorry... Qiming..."Wang Yuan on the side looked apologetic: "I didn't pay attention either." β
"It's okay, there are no thieves who don't know..."Xu Qiming sighed, and didn't blame her, Wang Yuan is also a mortal, how can he not make a mistake: "If you want a gift, it's better to buy one." β
"Well, but what should I send?" Wang Yuan tilted her head, a little confused.
Both husband and wife were pondering, what was there to give, and they didn't have a clue for a long time.
Xu Qiming didn't have anything to give.
There is no shortage of gold and silver, and the treasures of heaven and earth are too precious, Xu Qiming is reluctant.
So he can only buy it now.
"Lord, lord..." At this moment, one of the heads of the family behind them stood up, lean and lean, dressed in a punctual gray robe.
"What's the matter with the head of the Han family?" Xu Qiming looked at him, recognized him as Han Yong, the head of the Han family, and asked.
"The lord wants to find a gift for his father-in-law, but there is another way to do it. Han Yong said respectfully.
"Oh, let's hear it?" Xu Qiming raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and became interested.
"There is a friend of mine in the central district, and he has a batch of goods, which are handicrafts made by a mixture of fluorescent stone and night pearls, which are more than ten times more than ordinary night pearls, and can even be used as lighting, because the production process is very troublesome, so only twenty are on sale, and the price is expensive. Han Yong said.
"Oh, that's interesting, that's interesting. "It is normal for the handicrafts made of fluorescent stone and night pearls to be more expensive, after all, fluorescent stone is not something that ordinary people can touch at will.
"One hundred thousand taels of gold, I think I can give it to Lord Wang. Han Yong said.
"Then I'll buy it now. Xu Qiming thought about it and felt that this was really good, so he decided to buy one and give it back to Wang Yun.
"Don't work Lord Gong go in person, and send someone to buy it, Han De!" When Han Yong heard this, he hurriedly ordered someone to listen to the order.
"Father!" As soon as the words fell, a young man in his twenties walked out of the crowd, first bowed to Xu Qiming and Wang Yuan, and then saluted Han Yong, not to mention, he looked quite like Han Yong.
"For my father's order, you went to the jewelry store yesterday and bought a fluorescent night pearl..."Han Yong said, taking out a golden ticket of 10,000 taels from his body and giving it to him.
"Yes!" Han De took the golden ticket and ran to buy it.
"This is not good, it makes you bleed profusely..."Xu Qiming was a little embarrassed: "How can this money bother the head of the Han family." β
"Don't bother, don't bother, it's my honor to worry about the Lord, my son's ability to do things, please rest assured, I will pack it for you in a while." Han Yong said humbly.
The heads of the family on the side were a little unhappy when they saw it, and they old foxes knew that this Han Yong was clearly planning to curry favor with Xu Qiming and get some benefits.
Don't you see Zhao Han was the head of a small family in the past, guarding the casino for a living, and now he is also a celebrity in front of Xu Qiming?
Although they are unhappy, they can only admit it, it is rare that Xu Qiming is busy and needs their help, and Han Yong sees that it is nothing.
"Well, the head of the Han family is really loyal, if you have any requirements in the future, just say it, my Xu family can do everything I can. Although Xu Qiming is young, only twenty years old, he also knows what he is calculating in his heart, so he doesn't believe that these families will be loyal to him, so he doesn't want to owe him and speaks directly.
"No, no, it's my duty to serve the Lord... But there is one thing I hope the head of the family can do. Han Yong said with a smile, looked at the other family owners, and then said: "There are a few good plots of land in the West District recently, I think..."
Hearing these words, the faces of the other family heads changed, isn't this where a few of them have been arguing?
Han Yong actually asked Xu Qiming to agree!
"Pick it up..."Xu Qiming heard it, understood, and said casually: "The old rules of industrial dividends." β
"Okay, don't worry, you're indispensable. When Han Yong heard this, he immediately smiled, and he looked like a profiteer.
But everyone is bleeding profusely, and I can't help but show it.
10,000 taels of gold is not a small amount...
The other heads of the family were also very frustrated when they saw it, so they let the Han family succeed.
"Alas..."Wang Yuan on the side saw this scene and sighed, sure enough, the black scenes were all dirty.
In this way, everyone waited for a while, and Han De came back, but he came back crying, with a blue nose and swollen face...
