As for the thoughts of the ancestors in the clan, the Xu family can more or less guess some. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

He was a discerning and ruthless character. When you get older, you will be unscrupulous when you start doing things. Back then, ignoring Yang Liansheng's father and son to torture Yang Tianhong and asking the Xu family to watch coldly, it was the idea of the ancestors. If the plan is smooth and stable, the Xu family will be able to obtain a well-known marquis position without much effort. It's just that people are not as good as heaven, who would have thought that Yang Tianhong would be ruined, willing to give up everything, and follow the immortal master to Guiyuan Sect.

If Yang Tianhong didn't have the merit of slashing 100,000 in Anzhou, the ancestor of the Xu family would not be so concerned about the Xu family. After all, the given title is now given to Yang Tianhong again by His Majesty, and this son has also been named the envoy of the Anzhou Festival. In the eyes of the officials of the DPRK and China, the former title is a fictitious title and has no practical significance. The latter is also an official position with a very high mortality rate. Not to mention the difficulties and dangers, just to deal with the Yue people who enter the prison every year, it will make Yang Tianhong anxious.

The ancestor's vision has always been very poisonous, and he will never be wrong.

Seeing that Xu's gaze gradually loosened, and his face showed a little helplessness, Xu Jingkang was also slightly relieved. He stuffed the peeled peanut kernel in his hand into his mouth, chewed it slowly, and said with a smile: "Actually, cousin doesn't have to feel embarrassed. This will also be of great benefit to you. Everyone wants to be knighted, and once you grasp it firmly in your hands, you will immediately become noble. When I came, my ancestor repeatedly told me to persuade my cousin to change your old ways. Although Yang Tianhong is unruly, he has a mother-son relationship with you after all. If he needs something, cousin, you'd better say yes if you can. Today is different from the past, especially tigers, such fierce beasts, when they were young, anyone could choke their necks and pinch them to death, and after they were beaten, they would turn over and bite people and eat meat. Cousin, you've also seen the beast tamers in the rivers and lakes. As long as you are familiar with the tiger's temperament and give him a piece of meat to eat from time to time, the big worm will honestly obey your mercy and earn you money as required. ”

Xu Jingye lost no time in saying next to him: "This time, it was the ancestor who publicly announced in front of everyone in the clan that you will have food and clothing in the future, cousin." Triple all of them. If you need cash, as soon as your cousin speaks, the clan will immediately transfer it. ”

Hearing this, the bitterness on Xu's face gradually subsided, and he was not sure, and he asked in disbelief: "Is this serious?"

Since the death of Yang Jing, a hussar general, the Xu family has rarely received help from the family. Yang Tianhong sold out the fields and properties of the Yang Mansion outside the city early, but the Xu family guarded the huge mansion but did not make any progress. The two waste sons, Yang Wenjia and Yang Wenyao, also only know how to squander and don't know how to make money, except for their own mother all day long. Nothing will be done.

If the ancestors really changed their attitude, it would be a good thing. After all, everything in this world is false, and only gold and silver can really count.

Looking at the thoughtful Xu, Xu Jingkang smiled "haha", quickly suppressed the laughter, and whispered mysteriously: "Then again, the silver given by others." Where is the silver in your own hands that is safe and steady? Cousin, do you think that's the truth?"

Xu Shi stared at Xu Jingkang intently. The cold expression faded from his face, revealing a faint smile: "Please also ask my cousin to tell me carefully, my little sister has been in this house for a long time, and she doesn't know much about things outside." ”

Xu Jingye took a sip of tea beside him, leaned his head over, and said with a smile: "Actually, this matter is familiar to you, cousin." Before. The marriage contract between the Lu family and your eldest lady of the Yang family, my cousin shouldn't have forgotten it, right?"

Xu nodded lightly, but he didn't understand what Xu Jingye meant.

"The Lu family has a lot to rely on in the imperial court, and what our Xu family asks for, their Lu family can't look down on it at all. But. Xu and Lu have business in common. If you make a living, you will naturally not let go. The old lady of the Lu family is also detached, feeling that there is enough to live in this world, and wants to turn to cultivating immortality. The Yang family is indeed arrogant and tough, Yang Qiurong said that if he doesn't marry, he won't marry, and Yang Tianhong is willing to give up everything for the sake of the marriage contract, and go to the Hessian Mountains to catch wild beasts. Speaking of which, I admire the temperament of these two sisters and brothers, cousins. ”

Xu's delicate brows frowned slightly: "Cousin, what are you talking about?" The Lu family has been beheaded all over the house, and the Yang family's siblings and younger sisters never deal with each other, and they don't smile when they meet. If that's all my cousin said, don't mention it. ”

Xu Jingkang hurriedly waved his hand and whispered: "Cousin, don't be annoyed, when it comes to this, I have to mention the Yang family sisters and brothers." It's a big business. Perhaps, cousin, your future glory and wealth will fall on the Yang family sisters and brothers. ”

Xu Shi was a little moved and asked, "What do you mean by this?"

Xu Jingkang smiled but did not answer. He picked up the teacup and tilted it slightly, poured a little tea on the table, dipped it with his fingertips, and wrote the word "wild beast" on the dry tabletop.

Looking at the two water-trail words on the desktop, Xu's brows, which had just unfolded, became furrowed again.

"The little sister naturally knows about this. It's just that if the two cousins want to get involved, it is unlikely to happen. ”

Xu said slowly: "Yang Tianhong categorically will not divide the things in his hands. He doesn't have a good impression of our Xu family. Especially the matter of the desolate beast, which used to have a lot to do with Yang Qiurong. The younger sister advised the two cousins that it was best to accept this idea as soon as possible and not to touch any wild beast business. ”

Xu Jingkang looked at Xu Jingye who was sitting next to him, the latter's face suddenly sank, and his tone became a little heavier: "Cousin, this is the best financial path in front of you." You don't know the price of the desolate beasts outside, even the worst goods, it is as high as tens of thousands of taels of silver. Over the years, the profits of goods between the north and the south have not been as good as before, and if you can find new goods, cousin, your value in the clan will also rise. Yang Tianhong has the ability to hunt animals, and this kind of thing is equivalent to having no business. Cousin, you are guarding a golden mountain and calling you poor! Listen to my cousin's advice, don't hold the idea of being an enemy of the Yang family in the past, and have more contact with Yang Tianhong. If he thinks you are sincere, he will naturally not treat you with the same attitude as before. You come and go, it is good. Become closer to each other, and this beast business will inevitably be handed over to your cousin to be in charge. ”

These words were reasonable, but Xu could only smile bitterly and could not answer.

No one knows Yang Tianhong's temper better than her. I'm afraid even Yang Tianhong's dead biological parents. In this regard, too, they did not understand themselves. Although they don't have much contact with each other, Yang Tianhong has an extremely tough attitude on many things. Of course, Xu Jingye's words are not wrong, treating people sincerely can indeed change the relationship between each other. However, from the very beginning, he set his sights on the desolate beast, how could this kind of deliberate approach not be known to Yang Tianhong? He is a new Yiyong Hou of the imperial court, an envoy of Anzhou Festival, and a disciple of Guiyuan Sect. None of these identities can be assumed by idiots or madmen.

Xu Jingkang continued to laugh here: "Cousin, I'm afraid you don't know, Princess Jing'an has won a few Xuantian horses, and she has become the focus of the circle of noblewomen in the capital. As a brother, I have seen those Xuantian horses from afar, they are really bright and bright, and they are extraordinary, but they are gods whose bloodlines far exceed those of ordinary horse breeds in the world. Princess Jing'an's car is now unknown to everyone. Even if you can't recognize the royal family crest on the carriage, you must recognize the white-colored Xuantian horses running in front. ”

Xu listened. There was a faint movement in his heart, and he subconsciously asked, "Is this really the case?"

A hint of pride flashed in Xu Jingye's eyes, and he said, "Cousin, do you know how much those Xuantian horses of Princess Jing'an are worth on the market now?"

Xu shook his head. This was beyond her knowledge. I have been away from the Xu family for too long, and I have stayed in the inner courtyard of the Yang Mansion for too long. The whole person is a little disconnected from the outside world.

Xu Jingye stretched out two fingers and shook them in front of Xu's eyes: "Last month, King Lu entered Beijing to face the saint. On the road, I met Princess Jing'an's car, and I couldn't take my eyes off. On the spot, the price of two million taels of silver was offered. I just asked Princess Jing'an to give him one. It's a full two million taels! All of us in the Xu family have worked hard for a year, and the profit we get is at most half of this figure. ”

Xu Jingkang interjected: "Cousin, do you know who those Xuantian Horses of Princess Jing'an came from?"

Although he had already guessed the answer, Xu Shi was still a little unsure, and asked hesitantly, "Could it be?" Is it the son of my dead father?"

Before you know it, the title has changed. Yang Tianhong was no longer called by his name, but some honorific titles were added.

Xu Jingkang nodded: "On that day, Yang Tianhong made a lot of noise in the Lu family's mansion. According to the descendants of the Lu family who escaped: Yang Tianhong killed more than a dozen desolate beasts in one go in front of everyone. Afterward. The rest of Xuan Tianjun all fell into the hands of Princess Jing'an. There are more than a dozen of them! And they are all rare breeds such as the water-avoiding golden-eyed beast and the Xuantian horse. I heard that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince also wanted to get a few horses at that time, but Yang Tianhong didn't pay attention to them at all. It is said that people are more popular than people, and this sentence is a wise saying. Cousin...... Listen to your brother's advice, and be better to your dead father's son. The situation is completely different now than it was in the past. If you still insist on leaving the Yang family and marrying again, not to mention the glory and wealth, even the ancestors will probably be angry. When the time comes, no matter where you are, I am afraid you will not be able to escape the punishment of the clan. And your two unsuccessful sons. Even if you don't think about yourself, you should think about them in the future!"

Inducements, plus threats. Xu suddenly felt that things were not as simple as he imagined. Not to mention anything else, if the descendants of the clan cut off their own support for silver, the source of daily expenses will be lost.

The days of eating pickles and rice, Xu couldn't even think about it. It is difficult to go from luxury to frugality, and ordinary people feel that it is happiness to have white rice to eat every day. In Xu's opinion, it is simply a crime. What's more, even such a simple life is quite difficult to maintain.

Looking at the Xu family, whose face was uncertain, Xu Jingkang lost no time in increasing the weight of his words: "If my cousin can really get the beast business from Yang Tianhong, I guarantee my brother that I will definitely be able to move my ancestor and let my cousin get fifty percent of the profits." ”

What really has weight is this sentence. The last insistence in Xu's heart finally collapsed. She took a deep breath and said seriously, "Cousin is really sure, little sister, I can get five ingredients of moisturizing alone?"

Xu Jingkang glanced at Xu Jingye, the latter nodded knowingly, and the two of them said in unison: "There is no lie in this matter." My two brothers can swear a heavy oath, and if they violate it, the heavens will ......."

As he was talking, a henchman from Xu's side hurriedly came from outside. Hurriedly and pleasantly interrupted the words of the Xu family brothers.

"Madam, there are a few distinguished guests outside, saying that they are asking to see Madame. ”

......

Gao Tianwu sat in the hall of the inner courtyard of the Yang Mansion, sipping hot tea while looking at the mansion with curious eyes.

During the New Year, pay attention to a human relationship.

At the time of Hesse. Yang Tianhong smiled at the gambling agreement between Gao Liquan and gave the Gao family enough face. Gao Liquan has never forgotten this favor.

Although Yang Tianhong is young, he is very good at being a person. In the thin booklet left for Gao Liquan, although it is recorded about the basic knowledge of hunting wild beasts, it is for the Gao family. But it is tantamount to giving away several lifetimes of wealth to his family for nothing.

The things recorded in the "Linglong Secret Record" are the essence of the classics left from ancient times. The Gao family's animal hunting skills are a secret to outsiders, but compared to "Linglong Secret Record", it is not worth mentioning at all. Because of this, under extreme shock and ecstasy, Gao Liquan made a contract with Yang Tianhong: the Gao family is responsible for capturing the desolate beasts suitable for riding and sending them to the Xuanhuo Army for use. Since then, the Gao family has formed an ally with Yang Tianhong.

Gao Tianwu brought a lot of gifts. Among them, most of them are rare and precious mountain and forest specialties.

Bear's paws are delicacies. The Gao family has been hunting for generations, and the bear's paw doesn't know how much it has accumulated. Gao Tianwu brought fifty pairs of bear paws at one time, and another ten live bears. Although the bear meat is dry, many people like it. In addition, bears are fierce and fierce, and it is not easy to catch, and in the capital market, an adult live bear can be sold for tens of thousands of taels of silver. The reason is simple: in addition to eating meat, people value it more. Or the skin that was completely peeled off the bear's body.

There was a whole cart of deer breasts, and twenty pairs of adult live deer. This kind of thing is also full of treasures. Especially those stags. Just looking at the huge horns on the head is eye-catching. When the Gao caravan entered the city, dozens of pharmacy shopkeepers surrounded them and asked if they could sell the stag to themselves. Even if you don't sell live deer and deer blood, deer antler velvet alone can be sold for a good price.

When the Xu brothers and the Xu family walked out of the inner hall, the hall was already crowded with people. The relatives and guests from the Xu family gathered around various gifts, and they were amazed one by one. Praise.

Gao Liquan has repeatedly explained: For Yang Tianhong, you must have absolute respect. Especially when it comes to gifts, you can't give up the spread pool.

For the little abacus in his father's heart, Gao Tianwu is very clear -- the first battle of Anzhou, Yang Tianhong is famous all over the world. The imperial court first bestowed the title of Yi Yonghou. He was also named the envoy of the Anzhou Festival. Although the official position has no impact on a family like the Gao family, it must be paid attention to in terms of reputation. It's very simple, like one of your freelancers, and the neighbor lives with a retired high-ranking official. Although he can't control you and won't affect your living income, you will always subconsciously be afraid, and you will take the initiative to say hello when you meet, with a polite smile on your face.

The Gao family's caravan, numbering as many as 100 people, entered the inner courtyard of the Yang Mansion and untied the boxes containing gifts from the horses and carts. The lid of the box was opened, and everyone saw the precious thing inside on the red silk cloth.

Look at this millstone-sized ganoderma disc, it's at least two hundred years old. This is a real life-sustaining elixir! With only a fingernail as big as a fingernail, you can live the flesh and bones of the dead, and you can't buy it with real money. ”

"This, this is a tiger whip? Could it be that I was dazzled? Yes, it is really a tiger whip? There are so many? There are sixteen of them? Look at this color, it should have been taken from the adult giant tiger. Sky...... Last time, the old man saw the treasure of the town store in the "Rejuvenation Hall", and it was at most comparable to seventy percent of the size here. The shopkeeper of the Rejuvenation Hall also said that the tiger whip was obtained from the white tiger in the extremely cold land of Liaodong, which was extremely precious and full of medicinal effects, and only a little powder could make a man become fierce and as hard as steel. It's just that the asking price of the Rejuvenation Hall is too high, and he will never sell without 100,000 taels of silver. The old man didn't have so much silver in his hand at that time, and later heard that the tiger whip was bought by Su Anhou, so he could only regret it too late. Unexpectedly, there are so many tiger whips here. ”

The man who spoke was already old, thin and thin, and he looked like he was overly drunk. He excitedly stood beside the box containing the tiger whip and kept moving, his eyes full of greed. Several times, I couldn't help but want to reach out and touch it, and even had the urge to grab one and put it in my pocket.

Seeing this, Gao Tianwu grinned and said proudly: "What are the tigers in the extremely cold land of Liaodong? These tiger whips are all taken from the black tigers that are unique to the Hesse. Regardless of the size of the head for the time being, the medicinal effect alone will exceed that of the Fierce Tiger in the Extremely Cold Land by dozens of times. If the shopkeeper of the Rejuvenation Hall that this uncle said sees it, don't say it's 100,000 taels of silver, even if you take out 1 million taels of silver, you may not be able to buy it. ”

The Xu family and the Xu brothers heard these words clearly in their ears. At that moment, Xu Shi quickened his pace, hurriedly walked over, and asked cautiously with the unique reserve of a woman: "This guest has never met my family, I don't know what to call it?"

If it were an ordinary person, the adoptive father's inner courtyard would definitely not let it in. Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, the time is a little special, plus the Xu clan invited many relatives and friends in the clan to the banquet. What's more important is that because Gao Tianwu brought a large number of gifts, just by looking at it, Menzi knew that these people would definitely not be able to provoke him, so he hurriedly let people in, nodding his head and greeting the guests with tea, while letting Yahuan go in to show the Xu family.
