Chapter 614 Back then, the past
Yang Dong was not surprised at all that the Xu family would react like this.
After all, the current Xu family is only the two people in front of them.
And no matter who they turn to, nothing good will come to them.
If they want to turn the tables against the wind, they are their only choice.
So Yang Dong nodded lightly and said:
"In that case, you might as well tell my father, how did your family master arrange it?"
This time, Xia Bo did not hesitate any longer, but spoke directly:
"Thinking about it, Yang Gong should know a thing or two about what happened to our Xu family."
"Our head of the family is in the Qinglou, and after losing all his money, he has already realized that the Xu family may not be protected."
"It's just that he didn't expect those people to act so quickly."
Speaking of this, Xia Bo sighed deeply and continued:
"Originally, there were some words that the head of the family wanted to say to you personally. It's a pity that he didn't expect these people to be so frustrated that they would openly go to the official prison to kill people. ”
"But those people probably can't dream that the head of the family actually has a shadow left."
At this point, he glanced in the direction the boy had left, and then continued:
"The young master and the old slave are the shadows left by the head of the family, and they are also the only hope of the Xu family."
Yang Dong nodded lightly and waited for the following.
"Yang Gong doesn't know, in fact, in recent years, our Xu family has indeed encountered a lot of troubles in business."
"But most of these troubles come from the other three families."
"It's just that Yang Gong knows, why are the other three families in the same spirit, but they are pressing on our Xu family step by step?"
For this matter, Yang Dong was naturally curious.
In fact, he didn't have such doubts only once.
It stands to reason that the Xu family, as one of the four major families, is also a family that has lasted for hundreds of years, and his relationship with the other three families is definitely not the same as that of fire and water.
On the contrary, the four major families often marry each other, and a situation has long been formed in which you have me and I have you.
But this made Yang Dong more and more puzzled, what was the reason why the Xu family was abandoned by the other three?
Xia Bo didn't sell it, and after organizing the language a little, he continued:
"Has Yang Gong heard of the name of the Blood Jade Alliance?"
Blood Jade Alliance?
The expression on Yang Dong's face changed slightly,
According to his current investigation, there are already many clues that point to the murderer of the Xu family's extermination case to this mysterious Blood Jade Alliance.
It's just that...... Between this blood jade alliance, why can't you get along with the Xu family?
"What do you know about the Blood Jade Alliance?"
Yang Dong asked in a deep voice.
"The Blood Jade Alliance is an emerging organization in the Jiangnan region......"
Xia Bo pondered as he continued:
"According to our Xu family's investigation, the Blood Jade Alliance suddenly appeared in the Jiangnan region more than ten years ago."
"At that time, it was just in time for the first emperor to be obsessed with blood jade, so the blood jade in southern Xinjiang became a treasure sought after by the nobles of the capital."
"And it was during this period that the Blood Jade Alliance grew rapidly."
Speaking of this, a puzzled expression flashed in Xia Bo's eyes.
"It's not a secret, the old slave sees the rise of the Blood Jade Alliance, but at the same time he has a lot of doubts."
"Because the timing of all this is always a bit too coincidental."
"At the beginning, the Blood Jade Alliance just had an unimaginable attachment to the Blood Jade of Southern Xinjiang. Not to mention that they bought all the blood jade in southern Xinjiang on the market, they also sent many people to go south into the 100,000 mountains, just to find the veins of blood jade. ”
At that time, many people in Jiangnan scoffed at this. In particular, the four major families themselves started as businesses, and for a dispensable gem, it will not cost so much manpower, material and financial resources at all. ”
"Therefore, the old slave remembers that at that time, the four major families often took out the Blood Jade Alliance to ridicule."
"It's just that no one expected that just a few months later, the first emperor made a decree to raise the blood jade of southern Xinjiang to an unimaginable height."
After Xia Bo finished speaking, his eyes still had the emotions of that time.
"Yang Gong didn't know that after the first emperor's will, blood jade suddenly became a hot treasure."
"Its price has risen dozens of times one after another!"
So in a very short period of time, the Blood Jade Alliance suddenly accumulated a wealth no less than that of the four major families. And more importantly, there is only one Blood Jade Alliance in this world that has mastered the mining technology of blood jade in Southern Xinjiang. ”
When Yang Dong heard this past, he couldn't help frowning slightly.
"With the status of the four major families in Jiangnan at that time, didn't they think about finding a blood jade vein by themselves, and then sitting on the ground to collect money?"
"Do you have to let that Blood Jade Alliance take the bulk of the profits away?"
When Xia Bo heard this, he shook his head with a wry smile,
"Yang Gong didn't know that the four major families had indeed spent a lot of effort to find the veins of blood jade in southern Xinjiang."
"And our Xu family found one at that time!"
Speaking of this, Yang Dong's eyes narrowed slightly.
The Xu family actually had a blood jade vein, why had he never found the information he wanted to pass before?
Perhaps sensing Yang Dong's doubts, Xia Bo explained:
"Yang Gong should understand that the husband is not guilty, and he is guilty."
"At that time, our family head knew very well that the appearance of the blood jade vein was not only a great opportunity for the Xu family, but also a great crisis."
So our family, together with the other three, had a closed-door meeting. The main content is the distribution of this blood jade vein. ”
"Actually, everyone had already talked about it at that time, but who knows, but just a month later, the other three families turned against the water and told the Blood Jade Alliance that the Xu family had a blood jade vein."
"Why did they do that?"
Yang Dong rubbed his eyebrows and asked with some doubts.
"In fact, the head of the family never figured it out until he died."
"Because after the other three families rebelled against the water at that time, the head of the family even mentioned that the four families divided the veins equally."
"But those three families were unmoved!"
Speaking of this, Xia Bo let out a long sigh.
"Since then, our Xu family has embarked on the road of decline......
"Actually, our Xu family has fallen to this, and this Blood Jade Alliance is behind it, and there is no shortage of stabs."
"Even if the old slave didn't guess wrong, behind the Xu family's extermination case, there must be the shadow of the Blood Jade Alliance, and even the Blood Jade League single-handedly contributed to this matter!"
Yang Dong bowed slightly, sorting out the information that Xia Bofang had just passed on in his mind.
If it is according to Xia Bo's words, the existence of this Blood Jade Alliance seems too coincidental.
How could they be so sure that they bought blood jade in a big way at the beginning, and at any cost, they went to find the blood jade vein?
