Tianlong Sword Village... Tianlong... Tianlong...
Zhan Tianlong, is it possible? !
"That's right, your uncle Zhan Tianlong was originally named Long, and he was the son of Long Ao, the owner of Tianlong Sword Manor. However, he ran away from home due to disagreements with him. Later, when he met his eldest brother and me, this guy changed his name to Zhan Tianlong..." said At this point, the sixth master, Ren Tianzong, smiled helplessly and said: "Your uncle Zhan has that temper. I won't go back until I defeat him."
"I see, I didn't expect Uncle Zhan to have such a big backer. Last time I heard Old Dan King mention it at Mingyu Villa, he is the second-ranked sword king among the eight kings. By the way, Uncle Liu, you are King Shura. But you haven't told me yet." Ren Jie finally understood that Uncle Zhan and his family were almost the same, but there was another reason why the emperor and other major families were so afraid of him. Regardless of the quarrel between father and son, others dare not ignore this background.
"What Shura King, others are yelling at you." Ren Tianzong waved his hands, obviously unwilling to talk about it, and then said: "On the one hand, it is because of your uncle's fight, and on the other hand, Sword King Long Ao is different from others. His own strength He is also extremely strong, and your father admires him very much. He did not cause any trouble, so he stayed with Mingyu Villa."
Seeing that Uncle Liu was unwilling to mention King Shura, Ren Jie stopped asking questions and continued to listen to Uncle Liu's talk about these things.
"This was basically the situation back then. Taoist Yuquan was extremely ferocious back then, and he had many people under his command. And there were countless underground caves and veins underneath the Yuquan Mountain mineral vein he discovered, which were criss-crossed due to decades of mining. . When we were mining, we encountered many remnants of Taoist Yuquan, but they were beaten very badly, so relatively speaking, there were only occasional collisions and it was not serious. "
"What about the current situation of the Yuquan Mountain Lingyu Mine?" After listening to Liu Shuer's explanation of the ins and outs of the Yuquan Mountain Mine and the emperor's changing thoughts, Ren Jie began to ask about the current situation.
"Now..." Liu Ye Ren Tianzong thought for a while and said: "Since your father completely gave the Yuquan Mountain jade vein to the royal family, the emperor has begun to gradually replace some of the people who were there. It was nothing when your father was here, but in recent years After your father left the Ren family, his actions became more and more serious. Now there are almost no people from that time in the Yuquan Mountain Lingyu mine. But fortunately, among some of the people he thought he trusted, there were also your uncle Liu and me. people, but those people are not too core. According to their information, in recent years, the remnants of Taoist Yuquan in the Lingyu Mine of Yuquan Mountain have become more and more troublesome. I heard that the emperor sent troops and superpowers to annihilate them several times. All failed. However, even so, the emperor will not send this piece of fat to you for nothing. I am very sure based on my understanding of him for so many years. "
Ren Jie nodded and said: "I also know that there must be something wrong here. At a small scale, this jade mine will definitely not make 30 million jade money every year. At a big scale, it is probably a trap. The remaining evil should be just one reason. What about the output?”
"Production should not be a problem!" Mentioning this, Liu Ye Ren Tianzong frowned slightly and said: "Although the eldest brother once said that the Yuquan Taoist people worked hard to mine, and after the eldest brother and the emperor obtained it, they also mined a lot for needs, but this Yuquan Mountain mineral vein It is very rich, but the terrain is complex and crisscrossed, and it is difficult to mine it. It should be able to be mined for hundreds of years. Even if it continues to be mined frantically, there should be no problems in the next thirty to fifty years. In fact, Ren Junyang and the three of them should be in this situation. It’s also very clear, because for a long time my eldest brother put them in charge of things there.”
"Perhaps the emperor is taking advantage of their self-understanding mentality. It seems that there has been some problem recently that we don't know about. It seems that this matter really needs to be studied carefully. By the way, Liu Shu'er, several elders I jumped in very excitedly. I meant to teach them a long lesson and let them find out what was going on. By the way, I could also use this to make some people feel proud secretly, thinking that the plan had succeeded and making them happy. "For a moment." After all, Ren Junyang and the others are elders Ren Jie, and if they are left alone this time, it is likely that the Ren family will suffer some losses.
Although in Ren Jie's view, this part of the loss was like a cancer, he still had to talk to Uncle Liu about this matter, because he would have to dig out this cancer next.
Upon hearing this, the sixth master Ren Tianzong immediately understood what Ren Jie meant, and then looked at Ren Jie in surprise, because he knew from recent contacts that Ren Jie was definitely not the kind of impatient person, and he would not be in a hurry to take power, but now Why do you suddenly think of taking action against some elders
"I'm not in a hurry to deal with them, but they are always jumping up and down, so I have to suppress them. At this stage, I will let them push up from the front, but it is also necessary to gradually start preparing to deal with them. This This time is an opportunity, but because of the special situation this time, the Ren family will lose a group of people when dealing with them. Although the group of people lost are theirs, but... "
"Remember, you are the head of the family, and your sixth uncle, I can only help you for a while. The decision you make is the decision of the Ren family. No matter how much rotten flesh you have, there will only be harm. Your sixth uncle still understands this truth. Yes, feel free to do it boldly. Wan Hong will inform you of any changes in the information in the future. You, Uncle Liu, can speak as long as you can. "Sixth Master Ren Tianzong is not a mother-in-law kind of person. He is very kind. Said simply.
"I feel reassured by Liu Shu'er's words, but the matter of Yuquan Mountain's mineral veins needs to be studied carefully. Liu Shu'er, you can find me a few people who are familiar with Yuquan Mountain's mineral veins, and there are still people who are still there at this stage. "
"Before you came, I had already asked Wan Hong to make arrangements. At the same time, I also asked him to collect as much information as possible about the jade veins in Yuquan Mountain. In fact, in recent years, I have been because of your sixth aunt, and also because of the jade veins in Yuquan Mountain. I don't care too much about completely returning the royal family. Otherwise, there should be more than just these news, but you don't have to worry, all kinds of news will come out soon. As for Ren Junyang and the others, hey, the reason why they are so active must be. I simplified things and thought that the emperor just lost the Ren family’s mining technology and didn’t understand the place. If it was that simple, the emperor would have cooperated with the Ren family for so many years. "
"Mining technology?" Ren Jie looked at Uncle Liu inquiringly.
"Back then, my eldest brother had a lot of strange people, and the Ren family's technology in mining the jade veins was the best in the entire Mingyu Dynasty. After the Yuquan Mountain jade veins were completely handed over to the royal family, our family members naturally withdrew. Moreover, the Ren family was in charge of mining back then and knew the situation better. In fact, Ren Junyang and the others were in charge at that time, so they probably thought they knew better. I didn’t know much about this at the time, but I occasionally heard my eldest brother mention it, saying that Yuquan Sooner or later, there will be problems with the Shanling Jade veins. It is unnecessary for the emperor to attack the Ren family without mercy. Maybe the new problem you are talking about is what the elder brother said back then." Ren Tianzong thought about the situation back then and combined it with the current situation. The current situation is spoken.
"Well, it's very possible. In fact, there is a problem in this. Anyone can think of it if they think about it deeply, but the ones who can continue to fall into it are those who think they are better than others and self-righteous." Ren Jie also nodded. .
After that, he lightly clinked glasses with Uncle Liu and drank another drink. Then the two of them started chatting, talking about some past things, about the auspiciousness and visions that Ren Jie had made, and about Mingyu. Villa, we talked about...
… … … … … … … … …
It was getting late when the various activities at the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet ended. However, the three elders who came back from the palace were still excited. They did not rest immediately after returning to Ren's house. Instead, they went directly into the meeting hall. middle.
"Great, I really didn't expect such a ridiculous thing to turn into such a good thing. Yuquan Mountain's jade veins have returned to the hands of our Ren family." Ren Hanlin held it in for a long time and finally said after returning. Exit.
Ren Wenxu also smiled and said: "And this time we only need to pay 30 million jade coins every year. The rest is our own income. We can increase our efforts to mine."
"That's right, ten years is enough for our Ren family to reach a new level. It was with the help of the Yuquan Mountain jade veins that the Ren family re-emerged and achieved its glory in the past twenty years." Ren Hanlin also said again. He nodded and said.
This time, not only the three elders came back, but also Ren Qiang and Ren Hao also entered the meeting hall. Although they are also juniors, they are already generals now, and they are the representatives of Ren Tianheng and Ren Tianqi. They are the most qualified to sit here, but they are not so excited at this time.
"Ren Qiang, Ren Hao, it seems that you have something to say. You are back home, feel free to say anything." Ren Junyang also said with a smile and an extremely kind elder attitude.
"It's nothing, I just don't feel right..." Ren Qiang didn't know what to say, scratching his head and feeling very uncomfortable.
Ren Hao thought for a while and looked at Ren Junyang and the other three elders and said, "Let me tell you. I believe that all three elders should be able to see it, because even that guy Ren Jie felt something was wrong. That sentence fell from the sky." The pie is actually saying that he doesn't believe that the emperor would give such a good thing for free. In fact, the emperor has no reason to give our Ren family this jade vein in Yuquan Mountain. The emperor has always been worried about my Ren family, so it is a good thing not to suppress it. , how could you give such a big gift?”
"Yes, yes..." Upon hearing this, Ren Qiang nodded repeatedly. He felt something was wrong just now, but he couldn't explain clearly. Now Ren Haoyi said that he immediately felt what he was thinking.
"Haha..." After hearing the worries of Ren Qiang and Ren Hao, Ren Junyang laughed and said: "You don't know something. I was responsible for the mining of the Yuquan Mountain Lingyu vein back then. At that time, hundreds of thousands of pieces of low-grade jade were produced every year. There are tens of thousands of pieces of medium-grade spiritual jade, and even a very small number of high-grade spiritual jade, plus jade coins made from other materials. At that time, the spiritual jade and jade coins produced by the Yuquan Mountain spiritual jade vein every year were worth more than 100,000 pieces. We spent more than 300 million jade coins. In one year, high-grade spiritual jade and many medium-grade spiritual jade appeared one after another. The peak output reached 600 million jade coins. Otherwise, how could the Ren family and the emperor have relied on this spiritual jade vein? Accumulate enough strength.”
Three hundred million... six hundred million... Hearing this number, Ren Qiang and Ren Hao couldn't help but gasp slightly, because this number was too huge. Even if it was replaced by medium-grade spiritual jade, it would still be hundreds of thousands of dollars. It was too scary.
Seeing the hot light in their eyes, Ren Junyang continued: "It was only when I was in charge that we had such mining volume, because no one else knew the Ren family's mining technology, and no one was more familiar with it than me. The Ren family After the withdrawal, it is said that the annual mining volume has declined year by year. It is estimated that after so many years and some of the previously detected areas have been mined, the annual mining volume is estimated to be less than 50 million jade coins, and the manpower and material resources invested in it It's so huge that it probably costs 20 to 30 million. After all, he might as well sell a favor and let our Ren family mine it. Not only can he get a good reputation for supporting Ren Jie, but he can also get benefits and devote a lot of manpower and material resources to other projects. matter."
"That's right, we managed it together back then. If our Ren family were allowed to mine, even if the mining is not as good as it was then, we would still get over 100 million jade coins every year. Even if there are remnants of Taoist Yuquan there, or there are other problems, The benefits are also huge." Ren Wenxu also said proudly on the sidelines.
"I see, it would be great if that's the case..." After hearing this, Ren Hao nodded with understanding. He just vaguely felt that something was not right, but he was not too familiar with the situation in Yujing City, plus a few The elder was so confident and had knowledge of the jade veins in Yuquan Mountain that he didn't say anything more.
"Don't worry about this. By the way, has your father mentioned when he will come back?" Ren Junyang changed the subject. This was the question he really wanted to ask at this moment. In the past, Ren Tianheng and Ren Tianqi managed their own forces outside, and they managed the family, and they always lived in peace.
As a result, with Ren Jie's troubles in recent months, their lives have become increasingly difficult, especially since the sixth master Ren Tianzong has recently shown a clear tendency to stand up and speak out for Ren Jie, which frightens them even more.
"Who the hell knows? As soon as I said I was ready to come back, something would happen over there. How can I leave so easily now that the war is going on?" Ren Qiang shook his head when he heard this.
When Ren Hao saw Ren Junyang looking at him, he could only smile bitterly and said: "Second Elder, the war is really tight. Although the Mingyu Dynasty is fine now, there are constant wars at the border. In fact, the emperor knows this best. If not For this reason, if my father and the others don't come back for the Empress Dowager's seventieth birthday, wouldn't it be suspected of being a self-respecting soldier? Moreover, for so long, the emperor has been thinking of ways to suppress the power of the Ren family, but he has not dared to take any measures against these two parties. It’s not that he doesn’t want to, it’s that he can’t and doesn’t dare to mess around now.”
Ren Qiang's words were more direct, while Ren Hao thought more about it, because Ren Junyang had sent people to invite them back to hold an elders meeting again and again. Although the question was very casual at the moment, it also had another meaning, so his words were explained more clearly. Be more comprehensive, or tougher.
Ren Hanlin and Ren Wenxu looked at each other, feeling helpless.
"The war on the border is urgent, but since you are back this time, you can represent your father..."
Before Ren Junyang could finish his words, Ren Hao immediately said: "Second Elder, we are only sending congratulatory gifts to the Queen Mother on behalf of our father. We cannot make other decisions on behalf of our father."
"Haha..." Seeing Ren Hao's unexpected reaction, Ren Junyang immediately laughed and said: "Sure enough, a tiger father has no dog son. The generation of my Ren family will be relieved to have a son like you. If Ren Jie can Half as good as you, hey. Let’s not talk about this anymore. What I am actually talking about is not the meeting of all family elders. You can contact your father urgently. After all, the emperor’s reward of the Yuquan Mountain Lingyu Mine is also a great opportunity, but how to allocate this resource? It's also a problem. What I mean is that it's not easy for Tianheng and Tianqi outside. The family should give them more support, so after the Yuquan Mountain Lingyu vein is mined, they will be given 10% each year. "
"However, the head of the family has been acting out of common sense recently. If we are alone, our words will be useless and we can't make the final decision. If he insists on messing around, it will be troublesome. After all, the head of the family is young and always likes to mess around. You guys I know, but if you can make a decision on this matter on behalf of your father, even if the five votes pass, even the head of the family will not have the right to deal with the distribution of the jade veins in Yuquan Mountain." After all, Ren Junyang was very cunning and let this other kid. It is definitely impossible to decide the head of the family on behalf of their father, and it will not be tenable at that time.
But at this stage, we should first establish a good relationship with them and give them a big gift to win their support, which can be regarded as preparation for the next step. Because even if the family leader Ren Jie is overthrown and a new family leader comes up, he will still have to negotiate with them, so Ren Junyang made a generous gift at this moment.
"Yicheng..." Ren Qiang didn't react too well.
Ren Hao's eyes lit up. Even if it could not reach the 300 million or 600 million that Ren Junyang said, as long as they could reach an annual income of over 100 million jade coins, they could still get more than 10 million jade coins. Although Control many provinces and control an army of more than one million, but no one can have too much money, let alone more than tens of millions of jade coins in one go.
"If this is the case, then it doesn't matter. My father also gave us some powers before he left. I still support the elders very much." Ren Hao nodded with a smile and agreed directly.
"Haha... Okay, there is a future. If that's the case, let's call the head of the family over. Let's settle this matter today to save our head of the house who likes to mess around from causing anything else in the future." Ren Junyang said I have called my subordinates and asked them to immediately notify the family leader to discuss important matters.
In fact, he was a little scared, because the things Ren Jie had been struggling with recently were getting bigger and bigger, and it gave him a headache just thinking about it. It's rare that both Ren Qiang and Ren Hao are here now. Speaking on behalf of their father, any decision can be made with five votes without Ren Tianzong's vote at all. By then, Ren Jie, the so-called head of the family, will be useless if he wants to act recklessly or cause trouble.
Ren Hanlin and Ren Wenxu have already thought of this. Thinking about the way Ren Jie scolded them before when he broke out and scolded them until they couldn't reply, now they feel that the opportunity for revenge has finally arrived.
With the character of that little bastard of the Ren family, he would definitely be furious when he heard that Yuquan Mountain would not let him control it and would not even get any benefits.
But this time is different from the past. No matter how angry he is, it is useless even if Ren Tianzong speaks. With the support of Ren Tianqi and Ren Tianheng, this is the final decision. Unless they want to fight against the entire family, at this time, let him be a little kid. The bastard knows how powerful the Presbyterian Church is. Let's see if he will be arrogant again.
"Second Chief... Elder..." After a while, the people sent out had returned, but the people below had very strange expressions, looking at them with an expression that was hard to explain.
"What's going on? Didn't I ask you to call the master? Where is the master?" The second elder's face darkened when he saw the appearance of his men. It was rare to have such a good opportunity. He was looking forward to it now, but the person didn't come.
"The head of the house...the head of the house...said he won't come..." The man looked at Ren Junyang, then at Ren Wenxu and the others, his expression becoming more and more ugly.
"Bang!" Ren Junyang slammed the armrest of the table and chair and shouted angrily: "Speak carefully, I can't even understand what I'm saying. What's going on? Didn't you tell him clearly that this is a notice from a meeting of all the elders of the family? "
"Said...said..." The man was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt down and said in a trembling voice: "But the original words of the family leader are that the second elder is indeed enough. The family leader said... you are sick, so he has no time to accompany you crazy. It's so late at night." Even if you don't sleep, you have to drink wine and sing songs. Who has time to hold a family elders meeting with you and say... If you are sick, you should go see me immediately. You are still messing around here without sleeping at night. "
At this moment, the person who answered was already sweating. He couldn't help but be sweating. Such words made him frightened, but he couldn't say it, so he could only try his best and keep emphasizing that these were the original words of the head of the family, and he was just passing on the words. people.
"Bastard, did you see that, did you see..." Ren Hanlin was so angry that he clap the case and pointed at the man with trembling hands.
Ren Wenxu also said angrily: "This is the head of our Ren family, this is the head of our Ren family..."
Ren Qiang and Ren Hao were also stunned. They didn't expect Ren Jie to be like this. He knew that important matters would be discussed at any time. How could he be like this
"What else did you say?" Ren Junyang asked in a deep voice.
"The head of the house...the head of the house also said that the two young ones are ignorant and don't know how to greet the head of the house when they come back. Are you old ones also ignorant? If it is really urgent, I asked you to go to... to find him. He has no time to come to you, so... Also, the master of the house is drinking tonight and has no time to pay attention to you. I will let you go there tomorrow if you have something to do. And... I will... let you teach these two ignorant boys what the rules are. "That's it. After finishing speaking, the person almost collapsed, thinking that he had offended someone, and it was so painful to spread the word.
"How dare he do this in the family elders meeting."
"With the two of them here, this can be regarded as a meeting of all family elders. He is simply too presumptuous."
"It's getting more and more excessive, it's getting more and more excessive."
… … …
Ren Hanlin and Ren Wenxu stood up in anger, eager to take action, but unfortunately they couldn't find the target.
"Damn it, why don't you give him a favor? He doesn't matter." Ren Qiang even scolded himself and the two of them, and he was also annoyed.
Ren Hao frowned slightly, because according to normal rules, they should go to the head of the family to pay their respects and report the situation as soon as possible. But as a representative father, you can directly ask the family head to come over in the name of the whole family elders meeting.
It's just that no matter how angry or thinking he is at this moment, Ren Jie doesn't care about them at all, so now they can only play in the air.
