Qin family, inside the mansion.
In the study room of the head of the family, Qin Yun was wearing a dark golden robe, a silver crown on his head, and a beard on his upper lip. He looked much calmer.
In the study room, the best dragon's birthday incense is lit, which is long and meaningful and has endless aftertaste.
In the silence, only the sound of crackling beads kept popping up. A closer look showed that besides Qin Yun, there was only Qin Qing. His jade hands were quickly moving on the abacus, and there was a thick stack of account books in front of him. .
As the most powerful person in the Qin family, Qin Yun didn't have many available people at hand. At this time, except for his sister, he didn't trust anyone.
After a long time, the sound of arithmetic stopped, Qin Qing wrote a few words, took a long breath, leaned on the back of the chair, and rubbed his forehead hard.
"how?"
Qin Yun served a cup of spiritual tea and asked casually.
"Last year... my family's various businesses, as well as the team in Manghun Mountain, earned a total of one hundred and eighty-eight thousand, five hundred yuan crystals. Of course, they were low-grade... After deducting various family expenses, there were probably fifty thousand yuan crystals left! "
There was no hint of joy in Qin Qing's eyebrows, but instead there was sadness.
"But in addition to ordinary expenses, Canghai Camp has to be borne by ourselves. This year, we will need at least 20,000 yuan crystals for expenses. Every year, we must send no less than 40,000 yuan crystals to the Presbyterian Hall as offerings, and we must also satisfy the elders. According to their various requirements, collecting rare elixirs and plants is time-consuming and laborious... "
"Hiss..."
Qin Yun took a breath: "So, my family can't make ends meet?"
"Judging from the account books, this is indeed the case. In the past few years, Mrs. Xu has been using the original Qin family's treasury... But no matter how much the ancestors have accumulated, they will still be left with nothing unless they... reduce other expenses!"
Qin Qing shook his head.
"The family expenses have been reduced to the limit, and there is no way to reduce them. The only things that can be cut are the worship of the Elder Hall and the Canghai Camp... But these two things are the most uncut!"
Qin Yun shook his head vigorously.
Canghaiying is the private soldier of Viscount Canghai. Since inheriting the title, he has mastered the magic weapon to control Canghaiying. It can be said that the wealth and lives of 500 people are in his hands, and they immediately gained their allegiance. This is his team. Of course you can't do things that abolish martial arts.
The worship service in the elders' hall seems to be a big expense, but it is the one that cannot be reduced. Otherwise, the elders can open an ancestral hall in the next moment, enforce the clan laws, and abolish his clan membership!
"There are so many things, and we can't reduce expenditures, so we can only increase revenue... "
Qin Yun said, his expression suddenly changed, and he touched the back of his neck.
Under the hair, the mark of a black mandala suddenly appeared on the originally smooth and delicate skin, and the petals slowly unfolded, lifelike.
"It's the adults who are calling us..."
Qin Yun murmured.
For this adult, he was in awe and grateful at the same time.
How powerful is the Xu family? There was an ancestor of the spiritual formation master sitting in charge, but all the elites were wiped out and their vitality was severely damaged. At this time, they had withdrawn from the aristocratic family sequence in Dongyi County. The remaining clan members fled to other places. It is said that they were hunted down by their original enemies and lived a miserable life. Among them, the Qin family sister My younger brother also added fuel to the flames from behind, which was regarded as revenge.
The Qin family was much larger than the Xu family, but they still killed Mrs. Xu, and even the family elders unanimously elected him as the head of the family. What kind of deterrent is this
Qin Yun was naturally in awe of Fang Yuan and a little grateful to his benefactor.
"This method... can actually be hidden from all the elders, let's go and see him quickly!"
Qin Qing nodded, gave an explanation, and left Qin's house with Qin Yun.
…
There is a scenic spot in Dongyi County, called Shazhou Leng, which has always been crowded with tourists.
At this time, a carriage quietly stopped in a shadow. Inside, the Qin family siblings sat cross-legged, each looking uneasy: "Why haven't you arrived yet? Could something big have happened?"
"Maybe... we are being followed?"
Qin Qing Bingxue is smart and knows that either becoming the head of the family means controlling everything in the Qin family.
At least, behind the head of the family, the shadow of the Elder Hall spreads and entangles all aspects of the Qin family like tentacles.
Even Qin Yun, the head of the family, has many constraints when it comes to doing things.
"Sir...are you afraid of the Qin family?"
Qin Qing shook his head. Suddenly, he felt sleepy. His whole body was drowsy, his eyelids were as heavy as a stone, and he fell asleep directly against the carriage.
"Huh? Sister!"
Qin Yun exclaimed, and the energy in his body surged and turned into a ray of defense.
At this time, he has surprisingly passed twelve levels of martial arts and achieved the position of Wuzong!
But after a trace of mist poured in, it was still of no use. His vision went dark and he fell to the ground.
…
"This is where?"
A strong feeling of weightlessness came. Qin Yun's whole body bounced and he stood up suddenly, only to find that he was in a foggy wasteland. Next to him, a suspicious figure was looking at him blankly.
"Brother Yun?"
"elder sister!"
Qin Yun stepped forward and held Qin Qing's cold palm: "Where is this?"
"If my prediction is correct, this is... our dream!"
Qin Qing affirmed.
"Okay! As expected, Bingxue is smart. I am worthy of promoting you!"
The mist gathered and turned into the figure of a young man in a white shirt, it was Fang Yuan.
"It turns out that your lord is actually a dream master. I was so disrespectful and disrespectful before!"
Qin Qing quickly pulled Qin Yun and bowed down to him with a respectful expression.
In my heart, I felt like a stormy sea.
What this gentleman had shown before was nothing but martial arts and spiritual skills. They had always thought that he was a master of both martial arts and martial arts, but they never expected that he was actually a dream master!
In the world of Daqian, the status of dream masters is much higher than that of spiritual masters.
To put it bluntly, even the most junior dream master, relying solely on his own status, is enough to be on an equal footing with Qin Yun, the head of the Qin family and Viscount Canghai!
"Get up! Qin Yun, you did a good job. As expected, you became the head of the Qin family... Did you actually accept the initiation and become a martial sect?"
Fang Yuan said calmly.
Naturally, the changes in Qin Yun's body could not be concealed from him.
Moreover, he had killed countless martial arts masters who had only one yuan of power and were the most elementary martial arts masters, so naturally he would not take them seriously.
"My lord, your discernment is as bright as a torch!"
Although he had also entered the Yuanli realm, facing Fang Yuan, Qin Yun seemed to have turned into that timid young man again, with even a tremor in his voice.
He finally knew why Fang Yuan's restriction was not discovered by the elders.
The dream master's method has this kind of unpredictable power.
Of course, this is also related to his intentional concealment.
Otherwise, if the truth is revealed, the Presbyterian Church will not allow a person who has been banned to become the head of the family.
Qin Qing's eyes were wandering, but he was thinking more.
Fang Yuan showed his strength at this time, naturally to scare them, lest they think that by relying on the Qin family, he could ignore his previous vows and have the intention of betraying them.
So he said directly: "Your Majesty has avenged us. We, my brothers and sisters, will always be grateful. From now on, we will go through fire and water without hesitation!"
"It's far from that serious!"
Fang Yuan waved his hands, and both of them stood up involuntarily: "Now... I only need you to inquire about two things for me. The first is the rise and fall of a family and everything about it. The second is the general I will tell you as much as I can know about the complete map of the terrain, as well as the official system, the strength distribution of aristocratic families and sects in various places!"
"You are not keeping secrets today and have been targeted. From now on, we will use this dream method to keep in touch..."
"What?"
Qin Yun's sister and brother were startled. They looked at each other and thought of the shadow of the Elder Hall. At this time, they could only agree: "No!"
"Very well, go ahead!"
Fang Yuan nodded, and the entire dream disappeared.
…
In the carriage, Qin Yun was shocked, woke up, and looked at Qin Qing. The two looked at each other, with a strong meaning emerging.
Everything that just happened is true.
"Let's go back!"
Qin Qing pressed Qin Yun's palm with a deep meaning.
"I understand!"
Qin Yun nodded vigorously. At this time, Fang Yuan was powerful and he had to obey. Moreover, his sister seemed to have plans to use Fang Yuan's power to suppress the Elder Hall.
Although they knew that they were playing with fire, they had restrictions and could not help but rush forward.
"But... you dare to follow me, these people can't stay!"
Qin Yun opened the car curtain and noticed a few dark shadows disappearing briefly, and a cold look flashed in his eyes.
It would be unwise to fall out with the Presbyterian Church at this time, but it is necessary to scare the monkeys.
How can you do it if you don’t establish your authority when you are new to power
…
Not far away, Fang Yuan was wearing a bamboo hat and mingling with tourists. He seemed to be admiring the beautiful scenery of Shazhou Leng, but there was a smile on his lips.
"The dream master's method is indeed infinitely mysterious. If you apply it at will, your magical power will be so vast that it is difficult to guard against it!"
So what if someone is following me
Even if I blatantly convey the message in front of them, if I am not a dream master, I can only watch blankly.
There is always only one other dreamer who can restrain the dream master!
"I also believe it now. This dream master is definitely not a profession native to Daqian World. It is too far beyond other paths. It is simply impossible to reason..."
The more he went through practice, the more convinced Fang Yuan became about the records in the "Mengxi Notes".
"Absolute force will inevitably lead to absolute power!"
He looked at the sand sea in the distance, but his expression became serious.
"Dream Master not only holds supreme power, but is also a provider of resources. He can be completely self-sufficient and even supply the outside world... If the two are combined into one, will they not covet power?"
Even if he thought about it with his toes, he knew it was impossible.
"Although I don't know what the Daqian royal family relies on to survive in this situation, this balance is undoubtedly very fragile. Maybe... as long as a certain key point changes, it will be broken. …”
He smelled the void and seemed to smell the smell of blood and fire. That was a sign that war was coming!
