Chapter 158 The state is rising, and the Xiao family has a plan
Mo Huaixian couldn't hide his sorrow, "Do you have any plans in your heart?" ”
Wang Xuan took a sip of tea, "Brother Mo thinks too much, do you remember that you said to me when you were in Fucheng that you only want to survive in troubled times, but now just because of a giant cuprite mine, your mind has changed?" ”
Mo Huai was stunned, then he was silent for a moment and said with a wry smile: "What the adults have taught is that the Mo family is not rich for a long time, and it has indeed lost its sense of proportion. The family heritage is accumulated for thousands of years, and a giant cuprite mine is indeed nothing. ”
"The way to advance and retreat lies in clarifying the bottom line!"
Wang Xuan listened to the shouting and killing of the school yard in the distance, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Now the development of wasteland is the general trend, only the control of the government army is the bottom line, and in addition, everything can be used as a trading pawn." ”
"I'm worried about another thing, there is a huge cuprite mine in the remote place of Yong'an, and other government armies have also gained a lot, and the reclamation has just begun, the value of this little thing in our hands is afraid that it will get lower and lower."
"If you find a suitable opportunity, why don't you take the initiative to break out and take the opportunity to exchange for other benefits?"
Mo Huaixian was also a trickster before, and he suddenly understood the trick, "What does the adult mean..."
"People!"
Wang Xuan took out the information summarized on the table, "Since the opening of the wasteland, the government army has recruited a large number of soldiers, resulting in a shortage of personnel in all walks of life. ”
"The number of spiritual materials for cultivation has increased, and it is impossible to say that some folk masters will also take advantage of the situation to rise, either becoming an unstable factor and being suppressed by the family, or being retracted, this is the opportunity to really strengthen the strength."
Mo Huaixian's eyes lit up at first, but then he shook his head and said: "There are many people in the family lineage, and they can't see this, Yong'an is remote, the background is insufficient, and they can't compete with others." ”
"yes..."
Wang Xuan also frowned slightly, "How much can you do, as for the Xiao family, Yong'an is too small, and it is not in the eyes of the people, just see the move." ”
"It's come to this, let's set up the stage, as for how to sing this play, it depends on the ability of both parties."
……
and southeast of the state, Xianquan County.
Xianquan County is a rare place of beauty in the state, the rivers and streams are vertical and horizontal, the small bridges and flowing water, the ancient pavilions and pavilions are all over the four directions, the courtyards of deep houses are hidden in the bamboo forest, the main road of the county is frequent, and the wine shops are all rich and wealthy merchants.
In a trance, it seems to make people feel in the water town of the Southern Jin Dynasty.
There is a spiritual spring in Xianquan County, the water flow is clear in all seasons, the spirit is full of energy, it is an excellent material for alchemy to make medicinal food, it is rumored that it is the place where the ancient immortals drank tea, so it was named.
Even though the bloody robbers were rampant some time ago, this place is still quiet.
But what makes this place prosperous is not the fairy spring, but the Xiaojia Mountain City on the nearby mountain.
The Xiao family is good at smelting, and they don't know how many refining workshops are hidden in the mountains, and they control the secret recipes of ingredients.
Of course, Xiaojiashan City has been covered by a large array, not to mention that it is difficult for ordinary people to find, as long as they get close to the mountains, they will be stopped by patrol guards.
At this moment, in a deep house compound in Xianquan County.
In the side room, the Qingyu teacup in front of Xiao Jili was cold, but he still turned around and played, his eyes full of apprehension.
At this moment, the double-eyed Chen Lao pushed the door in, and sighed slightly, "Go in, remember, what should be yours is yours, don't think about it if it's not yours, don't say the wrong thing." ”
Xiao Jili took a deep breath, bowed his hand, and then came to the backyard and entered the main house.
Inside the house, two old men in Taoist robes were playing chess.
One man was full of white hair, and a jade eye was born on his forehead.
One person has two sideburns that are white, but the bun is as black as ink, and the skin is faintly golden.
Both of them had visions, but they breathed like mortals.
Xiao Jili didn't dare to slack off, bent down and bowed his hand respectfully and said, "Ji Li sees the two ancestors. ”
The old man with jade eyes on his forehead smiled kindly, "This time I did a good job in the mountain experience, although there was a small mess, but I also had a basis for advancing and retreating, and I could continue to be in charge of the second room." ”
Xiao Jili's eyes were happy, "Thank you Ancestor." ”
The other golden-skinned old man was noncommittal, and said calmly, "Can you pass the news to the other Dharma lineages?" ”
Xiao Jili hurriedly arched his hand and said: "It has been issued, if it is in Xianquan, others will definitely be afraid to shirk, just when the Mojia Mountain City is completed, Yong'an is remote, if they don't dare to go, they will lose their own momentum." ”
"According to the report of the spies, each family will send a military manager, and maybe they will also invite the seniors in the door to sit down."
The golden-faced old man nodded slightly, "Then I want to ask you, how will this trip be settled?" ”
Xiao Jili said in a deep voice: "On the side of the border army, General Xiao Jianqiu will return to his hometown at the end of the year, and there will be a struggle for the position of the commander of the Bifang Army. ”
The golden-faced old man smiled indifferently and stopped talking.
The jade-eyed old man sighed, "Go ahead, send a message to Fucheng Zhongmou, and let him preside over it this time." ”
Xiao Jili was stunned, and asked unwillingly: "Ancestor, what did Ji Li do wrong?" ”
The jade-eyed old man shook his head slightly, and his attention seemed to be on the chess game again.
"You're doing the right thing, it's just not good enough, go ahead, study hard next to Zhongmou, he is determined to compete with the world's talents, and he will go to Shendu in the future, and he won't fight with you."
"The world... Shendu..."
Xiao Jili's mind was blank, and he said goodbye for a while.
Back in the wing, Xiao Jili still had a gloomy face, "Old Chen, am I really bad?" ”
Old Chen's eyes lit up, "Childe, Madame has explained, being yourself is, there is no need to compare with others, there is no need to fight with others, what is yours is yours!" ”
Xiao Jili pursed his lips and changed the topic.
"Old Chen, spread the news."
said, laughing at himself, "This time, I'll follow Zhongmou and learn hard..."
……
At the same time, there was also turmoil in various places.
Qucheng County Government.
The Liu brothers looked at the invitation card in their hands and looked at each other.
Gu Liu Haozi touched his head and said worriedly: "What the hell is this Xiao family's idea, will it take the opportunity to mess with us, the Tu Su family has already withdrawn people, in case..."
Liu Xuan shook his fan and said with a smile: "Don't worry, eldest brother, we have borrowed the prince's hand to withdraw, if I guess correctly, the Xiao family wants to establish authority, and it has nothing to do with us, just go to see the prestige of Brother Wang's Yong'an Mansion Army." ”
"The third sister invited a few friends in the door, and some of them always have to be repaid..."
As he was talking, a sergeant suddenly came in the door to report: Elder Cheng Sanshui of the Pai Sect is visiting.
Liu Xuan smiled slightly, "Big brother, it's them who have to worry about!" ”
……
Lingyuan County Military Government Yamen.
In the backyard, Li Chunniang's eyes were solemn, and she strode into the main hall with an invitation.
Since this charming lady took control of the military government, her bearing has become more and more graceful.
In the back hall, an old woman in black was sitting cross-legged, holding a cigarette stick, frowning and spitting out clouds.
"Master, it's the Xiao family's post."
After Li Chunniang handed it over respectfully, she said in a deep voice: "The Xiao family really wants to make a move, how should the disciple deal with it." ”
The old woman in black took the post, her cloudy old eyes flashed, and then she shook her head and sighed: "That ancestor of the Bai family actually became an accomplice to the blood-clothed thieves, no matter what the reason, my Five Immortal Hall will be affected, and it is better to be quiet and not move at this time..."
Li Chunniang gritted her teeth, "Yes, the disciple knows what to do." ”
……
Huairen County Military Government Yamen.
A bald one-eyed man sneered with the post: "The Xiao family is so anxious, it's not okay not to come up with some benefits, just go to explore the truth of Wang Stunned..."
……
Antai County Military Office.
The earth masters of the Liuhe Yin-Yang Gate discussed behind closed doors.
Opposite them, it was the monk of Honglin Zen Temple...
……
Huaihua County Military Government.
The Xicaimen and the elders of Hehemen fought with red faces.
The faces of the few small family elders next to him were ugly...
……
The bloody thieves riot has just passed, and the state has made a comeback.
This time it is not an open fire to fight against demons, but everyone knows that there will be no less swords and swords in the dark, and sometimes one breath and one face represent countless interests behind it.
Under the tide, the Xiao family, the overlord who has dominated the state for thousands of years, finally began to show its fangs, and no one dared to despise it.
At the same time, a spirit bird flew towards the city.
In the courtyard of the deep house in the south of the city, a girl reached out to catch it, and then ran to the backyard with a smile.
Along the way, there are many rockeries, bamboo forests, flowers, and colorful flowers, and no one can imagine that there is such a beautiful garden in this low-key compound.
And in the quaint pavilion, there was a young man sitting with an ordinary appearance and a simple face, who was drawing dots on a map of Dayan, sometimes frowning.
"Huaizhou's folk law lineage is not having a good time, doesn't the Sima family want to fish with all their might?"
"No, the goblin of the Sima family is not that simple..."
"And the cross-border goods of Tu Su's family, what did you find in the mountains?"
"Childe, a letter from Yamashiro."
The maid respectfully handed over the letterhead, interrupting the young man's thoughts.
The son of the Xiao family is famous, but he rarely shows up in front of people, and it is rumored that he is generous and benevolent, and looks like beautiful jade, no one would have thought that he would look so ordinary, and he couldn't find it when he threw it into the pile.
Xiao Zhongmou took the letter and glanced at it, then handed it to the maid casually, "Tell Shancheng that I will assist Ji Li this time, don't make that mess, do you want to be a brother?" ”
An old man next to him snorted dissatisfiedly, and he actually had the same eyes as Old Chen.
"The rule of the Xiao family is that the capable are on top, you are so nonsense, sooner or later you will be unlucky!"
"Yes, yes, you are right, Mr. Liu."
Xiao Zhongmou responded a few times and began to draw dots on the map again.
The old man's face was ugly, "You hide here all day long, calculate this, calculate that, what do other families plan to do with you?" ”
Xiao Zhongmou smiled, "Liu Lao, you are wrong, the danger of the Xiao family has never been included, but these bastards, all ghosts and ghosts, what should I do if I don't take precautions?" ”
The old man took a deep breath, "Let's take care of our own affairs first, I have seen Ji Ligongzi's plan, there is no problem, what do the two ancestors want?" ”
Xiao Zhongmou finally had no choice but to put away the map.
"My Xiao family has stood for thousands of years, ups and downs, I haven't seen any strong winds and waves, and the Huang family was a moment of glory, but it didn't disappear."
"Ji Li is wrong, the important thing this time is not to be ruthless."
The old man's eyes moved, and he asked curiously: "What's important?" ”
"Rules!"
Xiao Zhongmou smiled honestly, "The tide is coming, the dragons and snakes in the world are rising, how many can you hold?" It's the rules that matter. ”
"This time, my Xiao family, I want to give and state rules!"
