In one of the study rooms of the Ao family, Ao Wuyuan held a thick and simple book in his hand, and his thoughts wandered in the sea of words.

At this moment, the 'door' of the room was suddenly pushed open, and Ao Wuzhi walked in, with a slight hint of 'gloomy' on his face, and arched his hand: "Patriarch, Ou De of the Ou family is here!"

"Oude, what is he doing here?" Hearing the name Oude, a cold glint flashed in Ao Wuyuan's eyes, and he immediately put down the book in his hand and asked in a deep voice.

"It seems to be for the affairs of Tianmao City!"

"Isn't there still half a year before the jurisdiction of Tianmao City expires, why did he come to 'handover' the jurisdiction so early!" Ao Wuyuan frowned slightly.

"I don't know, but I feel like something isn't going well!" said Aowuzhi with a serious face.

Hearing this, Ao Wuyuan's face sank slightly, Ou De's person had nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, and today's 'day' suddenly came to visit, or for the sake of Tianmao City, there must be nothing good.

Thinking of this, Ao Wuyuan also had a bad premonition in his heart, so he immediately got up, walked out of the desk, and followed Ao Wuzhi out of the study.

Tianmao City, Aojia City, and Oujia City are one of the four major cities in Beiyue Province, and all the territory of Beiyue Province is actually a fief belonging to the king of Zhenbei County.

Later, Qin Xiao was named the king of Zhenbei County, and after obtaining the fief, he divided two of the four major cities in Beiyue Province to the Ao family and the ancestor of the Ou family to manage, and allowed the two families to name the city after their respective family names.

However, the city where the two families are located still belongs to the county king's mansion, and the two families only have jurisdiction and use rights, but they have to 'pay' half of the taxes to the county king's mansion every year.

The other two big cities in Beiyue Province are Beiyue City, where the county prince's mansion is located, and Tianmao City, a hub city located at the junction of Beiyue Province and Central Plains Province of the Yunlan Empire.

Tianmao City was originally the largest city except for Beiyue City, and because it was an important 'transportation' hub, it has now developed into one of the three major trading cities of the Yunlan Empire, which is extremely rich and prosperous.

Back then, although Qin Xiao led the troops to fight very well, he was a person who liked to be idle in his bones, and he did not want to manage Tianmao City, and Tianmao City and Beiyue City were far away from each other, so Qin Xiao also 'handed over' the jurisdiction of Tianmao City to the Ou family and the Ao family, and established a system of 'handing' alternate jurisdiction, with each family taking turns to govern for five years.

However, seventy percent of all the taxes collected by Tianmao City must be 'paid' to the county king's mansion.

Although the two families can only receive 30% of the tax, it is also a huge amount of wealth, plus the property established by the two families there, the wealth that Tianmao City brings to the two families every year is almost equivalent to as much as half of all the income of the two families.

Ao Wuyuan and Ao Wuzhi came to a living room not far from the study.

And Ou De, who was originally sitting in it drinking tea, saw Ao Wuyuan walking in, hurriedly put down the teacup, got up and greeted him: "Hahaha, the proud seniors are still so old and strong!

Oude's original flattering words fell on Ao Wuyuan's ears, but they seemed so harsh, which made him feel a burst of anger in his heart, and he couldn't wait to go up and 'slap' him.

If he hadn't injured Ao Changfeng back then, Ao Wuyuan would have passed on the position of head of the family to Ao Changfeng a long time ago.

Ao Wuyuan has four sons, two 'daughters', the eldest son and the second son twins, but the talent is very poor, Ao Changfeng has excellent talent, and he was also selected as the young head of the family back then, but later he was injured by this Oude and became a waste.

And the youngest son has joined the Ice Heart Sect and can no longer inherit the position of the head of the family, so Ao Wuyuan can only pin his hopes on his grandchildren.

Although he was angry in his heart, Ao Wuyuan was old and 'fine' after all, and he could do that his mood and anger were not in 'color', so his face was as usual, and he said in a deep voice: "There should be something wrong with the head of the Ou family here, right?"

"Haha, the proud seniors are really straightforward, then I won't talk nonsense!" Ou De saw that Ao Wuyuan and Ao Wuzhi both sat down, and he also sat down again, and after a slight pause in his voice, he continued: "That's the case, my Ou family was going to take over Tianmao City in half a year, but yesterday 'Ri' County Prince's Mansion suddenly came with an order, saying that the jurisdiction of Tianmao City would be used as the champion reward for the 'Jing' Ying Competition and the 'Jing' Ying Group in Beiyue Province a year later. In other words, the jurisdiction of Tianmao City in the next five years will be taken over by the family of the champion of the 'Jing' Ying Group, and it will be the same in the future. But before the Beiyue Province 'Jing' Ying Competition, Tianmao City is still temporarily under the jurisdiction of your proud family!"

Hearing Ou De's words, Ao Wuyuan's face suddenly sank down, no matter how deep his city was, he couldn't help but have a seizure at this time.

He knew very well in his heart that if the jurisdiction of Tianmao City was changed in this way, then the Ou family would probably dominate the jurisdiction of Tianmao City in a row.

You must know that in the past few decades, several extremely talented children have appeared in the Ou family one after another, and the overall strength of the family has surpassed that of their proud family.

Moreover, in the first two 'elite' English competitions, the Ou family won the championship of the new group and the 'elite' English group, so such a change in jurisdiction is obviously not good for the proud family.

And if the Ou family dominates the jurisdiction of Tianmao City for a long time, then it will definitely unscrupulously suppress the Ao family's industry, and if this continues, the Ao family's financial income will be greatly reduced. If the financial income is greatly reduced, it will also have a serious impact on the cultivation of martial artists by the Ao family, which will also lead to the overall strength of the Ao family martial artists becoming less and less inferior to the Ou family, and this will only make the Ao family vicious 'sex' cycle, and in the end it will not be the opponent of the Ou family at all.

"It's really unacceptable that the county king's mansion has suddenly changed like this!" Seeing that Ao Wuyuan and Ao Wuzhi's faces were 'gloomy', Ou De also said with a fake calm face, "Originally, it would be half a year before my Ou family took over Tianmao City, so it would take a year later for the 'Jing' Yingsai to decide whether they could take over the jurisdiction, alas-but there was no way, who could disobey the order of the county king." ”

Hearing Oude's dignified words, Ao Wuyuan trembled a little with anger in his heart, and he couldn't wait to tear this Oude apart.

Three-year-old children know that the county king's palace will suddenly change the jurisdiction system, and it must be instigated by this Oude. Oude's younger sister is now the most favored princess of the county king's mansion, so the Ou family has a good relationship with the county king's mansion.

However, the county king's mansion must have been afraid of the anger of the Ao family, and did not dare to directly 'hand' over the jurisdiction of Tianmao City to the Ou family to be in charge alone, so he came up with such a note.

Although he was so angry in his heart, Ao Wuyuan did not have a seizure after all, and there was no reason to have a seizure.

Even if he kills this Oude today, he won't be able to change the facts.

And the only thing that can be counted on is to pin their hopes on the younger generations of their own family, hoping that they will be able to fight for the jurisdiction of Tianmao City for the Proud family in the future.

But thinking of this, Ao Wuyuan's heart suddenly moved, and a name came to mind: "Aotian! Yes, my Ao family still has Aotian!" Ao Wuyuan couldn't help but be overjoyed, "Although Aotian is still young now, he can only participate in the 'Jing' British Championship in a year is the new group, but with Aotian's talent, in the next 'Jing' British Competition, the champion of the 'Jing' British Group is definitely Aotian!"

Thinking of this, Ao Wuyuan's 'gloomy' cheeks suddenly 'revealed' a hint of a smile.

And his sudden 'revealed' smile looked so weird in Oude's eyes, he couldn't help but be taken aback, and secretly said that this old guy was mad, or had some 'yin' scheme.

"What the Ou family master said is right, since it is the meaning of the county king's mansion, my Ao family has nothing to say, so I can only follow the meaning of the county king's mansion!" Ao Wuyuan's face returned to normal again, and he said in a deep voice.

Hearing Ao Wuyuan's words, Ou De was even more surprised, he didn't expect Ao Wuyuan to be so calm after hearing the news. But his face was still silent, and the purpose of this trip had been achieved, so he stood up, bowed his hand slightly, and said: "Since this is the case, then my task is also completed - the juniors don't bother, proud seniors, we will have a meeting later!"

"Well, don't send it!" Aowu said in a cold voice instead of standing up.

didn't care about Ao Wuyuan's coldness, Ou De, accompanied by Ao Wuzhi, got up and walked out of the living room.

Seeing Ou De walking away, Ao Wuyuan's face suddenly 'revealed' a smile again: "Ou De, you can't count my Ao family and Ao Tian as a genius child!"

Not long after Oude left, Ao Changfeng came to this living room with Aotian and high spirits.

"Father, Tian'er has become a martial artist!" As soon as he walked into the living room, Ao Changfeng couldn't wait to say.

Hearing the great news of this day, Ao Wuyuan suddenly stood up from his seat, his face full of surprise: "Really? Hahaha, good boy, you are really good!"

As he spoke, the overjoyed Ao Wuyuan rushed to Aotian's side, slapped his big hand on Aotian's shoulder, and laughed excitedly.

At this time, he seems to be more convinced that the next 'elite' British champion will definitely be proud.
