Aspiring to the Immortal Path

After all, Wei Danbo did not let Wei Tianchong take the shot, but tacitly accepted the delay of Gu Family and sent a letter to wish Gu Liangde a speedy recovery.

This is not surprising. In the bones, since he is a businessman, he is not a combative person. He is born with a lack of blood and courage.

Although he saw it right, if Wei Tianchong was really to take action against Gu Family, it would inevitably have an impact on Wei Mansion’s reputation, but he didn’t know that the loss of Wei Mansion would be even greater if he didn’t take action. Big!

The turbulent acceptance of the Gu Family industry that was originally spread suddenly stopped, and the entire Azure Dragon Mansion’s attention was focused on Wei Mansion.

Tang Jie retreats passively, ignores foreign affairs, and ferments on this basis, giving people unlimited reverie.

Many people speculate that Wei Mansion defaults to Gu Family's remorse because Tang Jie-not everyone can regard concession as generosity, more people will understand it as weakness.

When one party is weak, it is when the other party is tough.

This kind of performance first appeared in cities other than Azure Dragon House. After all, in these places, Wei Family has a very shallow foundation.

earth fire city.

This is a small city three hundred miles away from Azure Dragon Mansion. It gets its name because of the Fire River flowing through it, and it never goes out all year round. Although it is small in size, it is an important immortal town. Including Moonwash Sect, about ten Yu Family Sects have set up refinery mines here, which have been Sect refiners for many years. The highest magic weapon is naturally used by the Sects themselves, some of the lesser ones are for official use, and the worst ones go to the private sector and fall into the hands of a class of people such as the Guardian of the Escort. Because of this, this Earth Fire City is also a well-known weapon town. Every year, a large number of businesses come to this place for purchases and sales. Two years ago, Wei Family expanded its business and took root here for the first time. Now it is in Earth Fire City. Seven shops.

Today, a group of uninvited guests came to the door of Wei Family's shop.

The leader is a man with an open shirt and a large chest hair. At this moment, he is facing the chief steward of the shop and said: "Government Zhang is polite, speaking of which Wei Mansion has gone to this earth fire city to do business. For two years, in the past two years, dare to ask me how the Hongyun Gang treats Guipu?"

The steward was busy saying with a smile: "Guipang has taken good care of my shop, never I have received our protection fee. I still understand this point. I have always mentioned it to the owner."

The man was nodded: "It's good for Zhang Guanshi to understand, but the supervisor also knows, I Hongyun The gang also has to eat. There are so many brothers in the gang. If everyone does not have to pay protection fees, no one has to confuse."

Zhang Guanshi stayed in a daze: "Three masters mean..."

The man replied: "From next month, you are afraid that your shop will have to pay some money. Not many, but I have always been rigorous in doing things. Shops are determined by the size of the land and the scale of the business. All parties are losing money. Like your shop, you only need twenty silver tael a month, and only half of it is charged."

Zhang Guanshi complexion greatly changed: "My Wei Family is not a nameless person. It’s a family property protected by the repairers. You dare to accept it?"

Man complexion sank: “There are local rules everywhere. The Wei Family is a dragon, even if protected by the repairers, It’s just Shedding Mortality Realm, it’s not at the point where the protection fee can be exempted."

"But my Young Master is the true inheritance of Guanrifeng!"

" Take half of you. This is the friendship of my Gang Lord. After all, there is no such thing in the rules." The man said: "Steward Zhang, I Hongyun helps to talk about rules and favors. Although I have received your money, it is not unusual. I hope you understand and don’t make it difficult for me to do it. Otherwise, I’m really going to not accept your money, I’m afraid that other money-paying companies will complain about our unfairness."

I cupped the hands to the steward, and has gone.

The steward looked at the back of the man leaving, dull and speechless.

The guy next to him came over and said: "Chief steward, what do you think about this matter?"

Zhang Guanshi leisurely said: "What else can I do? I can only agree."

The guy said angrily: "This is too cheap for them?"

Zhang Guanshi gave him a cold look: "Then what do you want?"

"Naturally let Young Master Wei come over and teach them a lesson!"

Zhang Guanshi disdainfully said: "Let Young Master Wei come over and teach them? Are you kidding? When you are a red cloud gang, there are no practitioners. Besides, here we are outsiders. The Hongyun Gang is acting. We have talked about the regulations and did not violate the rules. If we call Young Master to come, then the rules are broken. This is not the Azure Dragon Mansion, and many things are unreasonable. We are Wei Family, let's bear with it."

As I said, I went back to the shop.

The shop clerk spit on the ground: "I'm afraid that if I have this time, I will be annoyed later."

A nobody's sentence is true. The truth is out.

Morning Twilight City.

This is located on the edge of Ling State, which is the border of the three states. For this reason, although Ling State has no special products, it is a very important transportation route. A large amount of goods flow from here to all parts of the country every year. Therefore, it is also a battleground for merchants.

Morning Twilight City is an indispensable and important place for Wei Family's business to go further.

Here, Wei Family owns one shop. Although there is only one, it occupies a large area, employs a lot of people, and has a larger scale than the total of seven families in the Earth Fire City. It collects, sells, and transfers And many other functions in one. Li Zhaoxu, who is in charge, is an old man of Wei Mansion for many years. He is known as the smiling Buddha. Normally, people always smile at Mimi.

But today, the smiling Buddha has a bitter face.

In the reception lobby behind the shop, the smiling Buddha faced an azure clothes scribe: "This is so good, how can the rent increase? And it will be so much as soon as it increases."

p>

azure clothes The scribe held hot tea in his hand, skimmed the tea with the lid of the cup, and said slowly: "Lee Chief Steward said this is bad. It is not that our owner wants to increase the rent, but to let the rent return to it. In the past few years, Morning Twilight City’s business has become more and more prosperous. Chief Steward is also looking at it. The rental prices of shops all over the world are rising steadily. Only our shop has been selling at a constant price. All are given to your house according to the lowest price."

Li Zhaoxu accompanied said with a smile: "This Li understands this."

"But good things always have an end. "Azure clothes scribe leisurely said: "Our owner is also a little tight lately, so we can't always owe ourselves to supplement Wei Family, right?"

"Heh, heh...yes, yes." Li Zhaoxu I couldn't help but smile, but my heart was secretly cursing, and he posted Wei Family as a bullshit. In the past two years, your Zhong Family has been making money every day just by collecting land rent.

Wei Family alone rents this shop and pays 4,500 fine silver rent to Zhong Family every year. As for now, the other party has suddenly jumped to 7,000 taels.

Although seven thousand taels is not an excessive number, it is indeed a reasonable price compared to the surroundings, but I am used to the discount, and suddenly no discount, I feel that it is naturally very bad of.

The most terrible thing is that Li Zhaoxu spent a lot of money to purchase goods a few days ago to expand the business, and only prepared a limited amount of money to pay rent, but he did not watch out for the other party’s price increase. This sudden change , There was a problem of tight funds immediately.

Fortunately, this matter is not too serious. The azure clothes scribe obviously does not want to push too much, saying that he can give Li Zhaoxu time to raise money, and Li Zhaoxu finally has time to ask for help from the Azure Dragon house owner.

After the discussion, Li Zhaoxu sent him away, and when he returned, his face was full of sadness again.

His close friend looked at Li Zhaoxu and asked, "Didn’t the Zhong Family have agreed to give us time to raise money from the master? Why is the master still so worried?"

Li Zhaoxu Shaking his head and said: "What do you know. Whenever foreign businessmen enter, in order to open up the situation, they often operate with low-cost strategies, first trying to build a reputation, and because of this, the profit is meager. I heard that my wife complained about foreign affairs incompetence a few days ago. , But in fact, this meager profit can only be achieved if the rent is cheap enough. Now it’s good. If the rent is rising, the original meager profit will be difficult to keep. If you don’t want to do something, I’m afraid you will lose money. "

When it comes to losing money, Li Chaoxu is immediately worried.

The young man was also nodded and said: "This is really troublesome, but fortunately, it is not the master who has to face it."

"En?" Li Zhaoxu lifts the head to see Little boy.

The little boy said with a smile: "Master doesn’t know, right? The little one just heard about it. Recently, many businesses in various places have encountered such things. Helped to collect the protection fee; the ferry on the Ding Family River was charged the berthing fee; the Wanhua Embroidery in Qiansi Town, our Wei Family is no longer one of the priority suppliers, but has to be collected by the same ordinary merchants. I heard that even the gang of wood-cutters in Guwan Township jumped out and said that the money I gave from Wei Family is too small to do anything for us."

Li Zhaoxu was startled when he heard: "This happened? How could it be?"

The little boy said: "It's not the Tang Jie who is making trouble. Why don't you care about Wei Family anymore. Gu? When Family heard about this, the first one jumped out. The shops that were originally to be sold to Wei Family were no longer sold, and Wei Family had no choice but to take them. This is good, everyone is looking at it, and some things are natural. It’s coming out. So don’t worry, Master. At this moment, I’m afraid Master Wei Family is more anxious than you. I definitely cannot blame you."

Li Zhaoxu was startled first. , Then his face became angry, and he slapped the young man with his hand: "Asshole thing, the master is in trouble, you are here taking pleasure in other people's misfortune!"

The young man knelt in fright. Begging for mercy on the ground.

Li Zhaoxu recovered his kind face and sat down slowly: "Tang Jie...I have heard about him. It is not surprising that he reacted like this. But it's just a Tang Jie, why? Is it causing such a big storm? And it came so fast, so urgent? I think 80% of them are still pushing the flames in the dark... If this is the case, I'm afraid there will be some action later."

"There are actions?" The young man was also a little stupid in fright.

Li Zhaoxu snorted: "Then it depends on how the owner responds. It's just the beginning. All parties do things with tentativeness and will not be too extreme. At best, it is the benefit of giving the Wei Family the benefit. Erase the part. But if you don't deal with it well..."

Li Chaoxu's voice went low.

No matter where the family is, they will not like outsiders intervening in their own business.

For example, Gu Family, why do you fight go back on one's word to offend Wei Family and refuse to buy or sell? Isn't it just to continue to control Azure Dragon's casino transactions? If any company wants to open a casino in Azure Dragon Mansion, don't even think about opening it without Gu Family's permission. When selling a casino to Wei Family, the loss is not a few shops, but the default casino franchise.

For the same reason, outsiders are not welcome to do business in other places. The strength of the cultivator is the key to whether or not to enter.

If you are strong, I will bear it. If you are not strong enough, you should naturally retract.

When the Wei Family has the two pillars of Wei Tianchong Tang Jie, the Wei Family's business can be opened to the Ling State cities, and the status is equivalent to the quasi-Heavenly Heart family, as long as it does not overwhelm the guests. But when Tang Jie expressed a negative attitude, his status declined, and his due treatment naturally declined.

When the strength is strong, all expansions are legitimate; if the strength is not good, then these originally legitimate expansions will become "a hand that stretches too wide."

In the face of such a hand, cutting down is the most natural choice.

From this point of view, any action against Wei Family is not excessive. As long-term traders, everyone knows how to make a difference, and strictly adheres to how much strength they have and how much territory they expand. Concept.

But for Wei Family, the nature of the matter is completely different.

Expansion requires investment, a lot of money is spent, the situation has just stabilized, not to mention making money, even the capital has not been returned, will it be withdrawn? With this withdrawal, a lot of money was lost. The family property that Wei Family has accumulated for so many years is on this, and even owes a lot of money. If it is all in the water, the loss can be imagined.

But if you don’t want to withdraw, you must use the corresponding strength.

"I don't agree." Wei Tianchong indifferently said.

"What did you say?" Wei Danbo looked at his son in surprise.

"I said I won't make a move." Wei Tianchong replied: "Everyone's actions are just trivial things, and they belong to each family. What reason do you want me to make? Just for that. Rent to destroy the Zhong Family? Or for priority supply, suppress and kill a blood flowing into a river? Or go to Guwan Township to talk, and if you dare not do anything for my Wei Family, kill them all? Wenxin is not a place of regardless of the law and of natural morality. Even if the Imperial Family does things, it is not so unscrupulous!"

"What about the Hongyun Gang? You can always deal with them, right? Protection fees. , After all, he can’t be on the stage.” Wei Danbo’s voice was exhausted and helpless, and it can be seen that these days, the troubles in various places have made him suffer.

Wei Tianchong smiled bitterly: "I can't get on stage, but the problem is that I can't beat your son either! Do you dare to collect protection fees in the earth fire city as a red cloud helper, is that a vegetarian? They help. But there is a daoist backing it up. I’m not courting death if I go there?"

"They dare not kill you, you are the discipline of Yandaoist."

"That’s true, they Surely they dare not kill me. But they can beat me, strip my clothes and throw them out. The master is the best face, if any of the disciplines are bullied by the elders, he may come out. But if he comes to find someone in trouble, he will get caught. Humiliation, the hapless one is yourself! When the time comes, if the master knows, don’t say revenge, I’m afraid the first thing he does is to take the sword and chop me first... You don’t know, I’m in him. If the mind is not taken seriously, it is not easy to guarantee this true inheritance."

Wei Danbo suck in a breath of cold air: "That means you can't do anything?"

Wei Tianchong shrugged: "Wait for them to be too much."

"Wait for them to be too much? I'm afraid it will be too late by then! Do you know how much Wei Family has lost during this period of time Money? That's money for your cultivation!" Wei Danbo said anxiously.

Wei Tianchong is still indifferent: "Oh, I don't care. Anyway, I have enough money now, and I don't need Wei Family to pay."

"What did you say?" Wei Danbo couldn't believe his ears. He stared at his son, "How can you say this! You don't need Wei Family, so you can throw Wei Family aside?"

Wei Tianchong spreads his hands: "Isn't this what you learned like Father? You don't think you need Tang Jie, so you just throw him aside?"

Wei Danbo froze on the spot.

He looked at his son: "so that's how it is, are you showing up for Tang Jie? He did something like this to my Wei Family, do you want to show up for him?"

Wei Danbo is already shouting.

Wei Tianchong sneered: "Dare to ask father, what did he do?"

What did he do?

Wei Danbo opened his mouth and couldn't answer for a while.

Wei Tianchong has said: "He just announced no longer paid attention to everything. What is so strange about his decision based on what father had done in the first place? Why can't I be upset with my Wei Family? "

"But this time..."

"What happened during this time has something to do with him? Or father wants to say that this person is so important that I don’t have him. Will the development of Wei Family be greatly affected?"

Wei Danbo does not want to admit that Tang Jie is so important to Wei Family anyway.

He fiercely glared at his son: "Are you talking for Tang Jie?"

"Child is just telling the truth."

Wei Tianchong said He has already strode out.

Leaving father, Wei Tianchong also took a long sigh of relief.

These days he is caught between the two and is in a dilemma, but today he finally speaks loudly and spit out the words from the bottom of his heart. It really didn't expect that the feeling of confronting father is so comfortable.

He dared to do this for nothing else, but because of Tang Jie's retreat.

He had always been worried about Tang Jie's turning his face, and his preparation was to maintain Wei Family.

But when Tang Jie did nothing but announced his withdrawal, his heart was greatly relaxed.

No one knows everything Tang Jie has done for himself better than him, and because of this, he feels even more sorry for Tang Jie.

So when Wei Mansion was surrounded by enemies, Wei Tianchong not only had no troubles, but also a kind of pleasant excitement. I thought, father, you finally know your stupid behavior, right?

Wei Danbo is his father, no matter how his cultivation base reaches the sky, he can't yell at his father, but because of this, from his perspective, he is very happy to see his father deflated.

As for Wei Mansion's loss, he really doesn't care.

As mentioned earlier, he is a cultivator. In terms of values, he and Tang Jie are completely the same.

Spirit coin is money!

The gold and silver of the mortal world, the treasures of the world, and the busy camp, are no longer in the eyes of the cultivator.

Furthermore, what he refused is not entirely unreasonable. Under the current circumstances, if you act yourself, I am afraid to quote the gossip. If you really let the master know that he is busy for the family business, I am afraid that he will immediately send People come to get him.

But Wei Tianchong didn't expect that even if he didn't do anything, Yan Changfeng still sent someone.

Three days after returning to Wei Danbo, Nan Baicheng appeared in Wei Family.

Standing in front of Wei Tianchong, Nan Baicheng asked: "I heard something happened to Wei Family recently?"

Wei Tianchong hurriedly replied: "It's just a small business Question."

"This way..." Nan Baicheng looked at Wei Tianchong, faint smile, and said with a long tone: "If this is the case, then come back to the mountain with me."

"Return to the mountain?" Wei Tianchong's heart was shocked: "What do you do when you return to the mountain?"

"Master has life, you will follow Tang Jie to win the stone Sect this time, and make great contributions, Master. To commend you, I will tell you the 2nd Transformation of the 9th Transformation of the Sun."

The 9th Transformation of the Sun?

This is Yan Changfeng’s best immortal art, just like the wild wind is to Ming Yekong. Yan Changfeng passed his 1st Transformation last time in the immortal fate meeting, but this time he was going to pass his 2nd Transformation.

Wei Tianchong was sluggish when listening, but then he woke up: "But my house..."

Nan Baicheng said impatiently: "There is no major event, you still care about it. What? Let me go."

With a flick of his sleeves, Wei Tianchong has been rolled up and flew slowly into the air...
