…
Time flies.
In the blink of an eye, another thirty years have passed.
For the entire Daqian, a mere thirty years is just a snap of the fingers.
However, at the level of the Changning Wang family, thirty years is enough to bring about earth-shaking changes.
The spring of the 3215th year of Emperor Qianlongchang. A total of seventy years have passed since Wang Shouzhe traveled through time. He has grown from an 18-year-old heroic young man to an 88-year-old "mature young man".
This is really not a joke.
Because Wang Shouzhe was promoted to the Lingtai Realm earlier, and he was promoted to the Heavenly Human Realm earlier, his appearance hardly changed much from when he was in his twenties. It's just that the temperament has become more warm and introverted, mature and stable.
In these years, although the Wang family experienced some small twists and turns, they did not cause too many setbacks. Therefore, the Wang family has been developing quietly and quietly in a low-key manner.
But until now, Mrs. Wang can't keep a low profile.
Along with the two core members of the family, Wang Shouyong and Wang Luotong, both stepped into the realm of heaven and man last year.
Taishi Ankang, governor of Longzuo County, could no longer bear Wang's strategy of keeping a low profile. In his words, Wang Shouzhe, are you going to sneak up to the fourth rank before being promoted
Especially now that Qingluowei has been developed to the end, if the Wang family does not have a sixth-rank aristocratic family, how can it be qualified to guard a guard for the imperial court
Immediately, Taishi Ankang directly announced by the order of the county guard that he had helped Changning Wang's application for promotion to a sixth-rank family. It is said that the relevant departments of the capital have approved it.
The sixth-grade family plaque supervised by the county guard will soon be sent to the Wang family to replace the lintel.
The paper can't hold the fire anymore.
After internal discussions, the Wang family decided that it was time to show some real strength, so as to deter people from all walks of life who were greedy for the interests of Xin'an Town and Qingluowei.
This time, for Wang Luotong and Wang Shouyong, a two-day banquet was held together, and the ceremony of being promoted to the lintel was performed at the same time.
It is relatively rare for a family to be promoted as a "Shuangtianren" within a short period of time. After all, cultivating a Heaven-Human Realm not only depends on its qualifications, but also adjusts the interval according to the income of the family business.
For most seventh-rank families, it will be very difficult to cultivate two celestial beings at the same time, and the consumption of resources cannot keep up.
Even the Zifu family will control the progress of the celestial race in a rhythmic manner. Most of them will cultivate a celestial elder at intervals of ten or twenty years to maintain the total number of celestial elders in the family.
Therefore, the great news of Wang's this time immediately caused a sensation in the Southern Six Guards. At the same time, this wave of "news" spread throughout Longzuo County with the flying chariots, and became the talk of countless people after dinner.
A stone stirs up a thousand waves.
at the same time.
Zhenzewei, one of the Southern Six Guards.
The reason why this guard is named Zhenze is because it is on the bank of the Great Wilderness, which means guarding the Great Wilderness.
Zhenzewei's most powerful family for a long time is none other than the Zhenze Wang family.
Wang Kunyuan, the first patriarch of the Wang family, is a master of the eighth layer of the Heavenly Human Realm, and has always been known as the first patriarch of the late Tianren in the Southern Six Guards. This ancestor didn't show much when he was young, and has been developing in a low-key and silent way.
Until about fifty years ago, Wang Kunyuan broke through from the peak of the sixth floor to the seventh floor in one fell swoop, and then he no longer kept a low profile, but announced to the outside world that the ancestor of Kunyuan was actually a proud figure.
For a while, Wang Kunyuan became famous in the Southern Six Guards, and the name of the Zhenze Wang family gradually spread in Longzuo County.
However, the Wang family is nothing more than a strong seventh-rank family after all, at most it can dominate the area of Zhenzewei. With only the resources of the Yiwei Land, it is really difficult to push the ancestor Kun Yuan to the Purple Mansion Realm.
In fact, even pushing Patriarch Kun Yuan's cultivation to the seventh level of the Heaven-Human Realm has already caused the Wang family to suffer unspeakably. Many juniors have even been delayed in their future and missed the best time to practice.
Therefore, the best way out for the Wang family is to rely on the identity and strength of the Tianjiao in the late stage of the Heavenly Human Realm to expand their influence in the Southern Six Guards.
Gathering the power of several guards, it is possible to satisfy the bottomless pit of the resource that Kun Yuan Patriarch wanted to promote to the Purple Mansion Realm.
Unfortunately.
The ancestor Kun Yuan was born at an untimely time.
When Zhenze Wang's hand reached out to Changningwei and other places, he was rebounded and attacked by Wang's in-law alliance. After several times of secret wrestling and contesting, Zhenze Wang backed away in despair.
Afterwards, the Wang family was even more surprised to hear that the Wang family, Wang Liyao, had become a disciple of a supernatural being... After the Changning Wang family soared to the sky, the Wang family became honest all of a sudden, how could they dare to plan on Changning Wei
Afterwards, in the business expansion of other guards in the Southern Six Guards, the Wang family was squeezed by the in-law alliance headed by the Wang family everywhere, and suffered repeated failures. This made Wang's plan to take a shortcut to the Zifu route gradually bankrupt.
Fifty years have passed, and the high-spirited patriarch Kun Yuan, who had just been promoted to the seventh floor of the Heavenly Human Realm, managed to barely advance to the eighth floor of the Heavenly Human Realm!
Today's Patriarch Kun Yuan is already over three hundred years old. The further back, the road to the Purple Mansion is getting farther and farther away.
Due to various reasons, the Zhenze Wang family naturally hated the Wang family to the bone, but because of the growing strength of the Changning in-law alliance, they could only swallow their anger.
certainly.
This kind of hatred is only one-sided hatred.
For the Changning Wang family, it was because they didn't take the Zhenze Wang family too seriously at all. They just wrote down in the Wang family's inheritance minutes that they had a slight friction with the Zhenze Wang family in a certain year, and they broke up unhappy. scattered.
Although the current Wang family is extremely low-key, its status in the southern six guards of Longzuo County is already like an invisible overlord.
Except for the islands of Baidaowei, which is not suitable for planting, and the Zhenze Wang family who is sticking to the base camp. The rest of the guards have almost become the grain seed bases of the Wang family, producing a steady stream of high-quality grain seeds for the Wang family every year, which has also brought huge benefits to the Wang family.
However, after all, it is the folks. Wang's treatment of various planting families is not bad, and on the condition of satisfying their own interests, they also give them some benefits as much as possible.
As a result, the families of the seventh, eighth, and ninth grades of each guard have already regarded planting grain seeds as the primary industry for the Wang family, and they are earning a lot of money following the Wang family, and their smiles are gradually blooming.
Even the Tuoba family and Tantai family of Donghaiwei, who used to have great conflicts and fought to death, finally shook hands and made peace under Wang's mediation, and they helped to farm the land in a down-to-earth manner, or participated in sea transportation .
Who would have trouble with money these days? Except for the Wang family in Zhenze, they have 150,000 mu of fertile land, and they are so poor that they don't grow the Wang family's food.
In fact, the rest of Zhenzewei's eighth- and ninth-rank families had already secretly colluded with the Wang family and farmed for the Wang family in a half-covered manner. Even if Mrs. Wang knew about it, she could only turn a blind eye. After all, she couldn't beat Mrs. Wang.
For the Wang family's non-cooperation, the Changning Wang family also let them go. A mere 150,000 mu of fertile land is no longer necessary for the Wang family today.
this day.
In the main residence of the Wang family in Zhenze.
Ancestor Wang Kunyuan, who was already somewhat old, heard the report of the young Patriarch Wang Xingzu, and his face was full of disbelief: "How is it possible, how is it possible? Wang Shouyong and Wang Luotong are both about eighty or ninety years old. Then he was promoted to the realm of heaven and man, isn't this kind of aptitude the arrogance of heaven?"
For a long time, Wang Kunyuan has been extremely proud of his arrogance, although the Wang family does have arrogance in the academy, even a great arrogance, and the future is boundless!
But he, Wang Kunyuan, still has the pride of Tianjiao after all.
Wang Xingzu's face was filled with bitterness: "Old Ancestor, I didn't expect the Wang family to hide so deeply. Apart from those in the academy, there are actually three Tianjiao hidden in the family, no, it should be four. It is said that the Danding The Venerable Master's direct disciple, Wang Shouye, is also the pride of heaven!"
"Then the number of Tianjiao in their family..." Wang Kunyuan's eyes were terrified, "How come there are so many piles!" Ordinary families are lucky enough to encounter a Tianjiao by chance, which is already considered luck against the sky.
If there are two, it is definitely the virtue accumulated by the ancestors for countless lifetimes.
The appearance of piles in piles is either the sudden return of Wang's blood to the ancestors, or some special adventure. Similar situations are not unheard of in the history of Dagan.
And some aristocratic families also have their own secrets, which can ensure that Tianjiao will continue to layer up and so on!
"Old Ancestor, no matter what, the Wang family has already achieved great momentum." Wang Xingzu tried hard to persuade, "In the future, it is possible to be promoted to a fifth-rank family, or even a fourth-rank family! We can no longer do right with them."
Wang Kunyuan was also full of bitterness. For the past fifty years, the Wang family has always regarded the Wang family as an enemy. It can be seen that Wang's background has been exposed now, I'm afraid he doesn't take Wang's heart at all.
"Old Ancestor, we can help the Wang Clan grow grain, and then we will earn more money, and then I will buy you some cultivation pills for the Ancestor..." Wang Xingzu said, "As long as you can reach the peak of the Heaven and Human Realm, our Wang Clan Even if you sell all the family property, I will support you to rush to the purple mansion."
"Purple Mansion Realm?" Wang Kunyuan shook his head bitterly, "There is no chance. Most of the Tianjiao will attack the Purple Mansion Realm, and they will not exceed 330 years old at the latest. That's all, Xing Clan, you go and recognize Wang Clan Wrong. From now on, our Wang family will help them farm. All the resources we get will be used to train the juniors of the family."
"Old ancestor, you..." Wang Xingzu said anxiously.
"This matter has been resolved. No, I should prepare a generous gift and come to the door to admit my mistake to Patriarch Shouzhe in person. I hope that Wang's reading will be for the sake of the folks, and adults will not remember villains." Wang Kunyuan has fully understood that the current Wang The general trend of the family has been achieved, and the Nanliuwei area will surely become the traditional base of the Wang family.
Zhenze Wang's actions were not accidental.
After hearing the news, the seventh-rank families of the Southern Six Guards all received invitations from the Wang family in Changning, and they all prepared rich gifts. They decided that both the patriarch and the head of the family would come forward to congratulate the Wang family first, and then go to the Wang family when the date comes. Watching the ceremony in Ping'an Town, Changning.
It doesn't matter whether you really feel happy or not, but at this moment, you must pretend to be happy.
And the most cheering and encouraging people are those eighth- and ninth-rank aristocratic families. They have seventh-rank families on their heads, and they don't have much ambition.
Now the Wang family is not only leading the big guys to make money, but also promoted to the only sixth-rank family in the Southern Six Guards in one fell swoop, so it is naturally the regional overlord. In the future, if they really have any problems they can't solve, they won't have nowhere to appeal.
Those seventh-rank families above their heads will naturally not dare to be too reckless in their behavior in the future. However, this time the Wang family was promoted to the sixth rank, and no family of the eighth or ninth rank was invited. After all, there are many seventh-rank families in Longzuo County, how can we invite so many eighth-rank and ninth-rank families
It's just that those eighth- and ninth-rank families didn't care, and they all discussed with each other that on the day of the promotion ceremony, everyone just went to watch from a distance.
Leaving aside Wang's back garden, Longzuonan Six Guards is not mentioned.
Many families in Longzuo County have received invitation letters from the Wang family, and all the families have shown their sincerity, preparing to send a luxurious lineup to watch the ceremony. After all, in Longzuo County, apart from the two semi-Zifu families, there are only six sixth-rank families, and the Wang family happens to be the seventh!
From this point alone, it can be judged that the Wang family of Changning has already ranked among the "top ten" of Longzuo aristocratic families.
besides.
Some aristocratic families outside Longzuo County also responded. For example, the Fang family from Liaoyuan, a new Zifu family with great momentum, has a very good relationship with the Wang family from Changning. Wang Shouzhe's second son, Wang Zongrui, married the daughter of the Fang family.
time flies.
Half a year passed in a flash, and the Changning Wang family's promotion ceremony was imminent.
Guests began to gather in Changning.
On Anjiang, cargo ships and passenger ships came one after another and docked at Dingpu Port.
Dingpu port!
After more than 70 years of development and transformation, it has become an important port of the Wang family and one of the trading markets.
In addition, flying chariots descended continuously in the sky and stopped at the flying chariot station.
Among them, five flying chariots landed one after another, and a group of luxuriously dressed, mainly young people walked out of them. The leader among them was a mature young man with two mustaches.
With his hands behind his back, he looked around in an extraordinary manner, and said with emotion: "This Dingpu Port, my royal family and talents have not been here for more than 30 years. The changes are so huge, and I almost don't know it."
This man is none other than the Tianjiao Royal Family Hai of the Monan Wang family. Back then, he followed Wang Shouzhe back to Changning Ping An, and helped them open up wasteland. He stayed for many years before returning home.
Today's Wang Shihai is no longer the dandy young man he was back then. At the age of seventy-one, he broke through the shackles last year and was promoted to the realm of heaven and man. Such an achievement is considered not bad among Tianjiao.
"Grandpa Thirty-Nine~" said a lazy and pleasant female voice, "Is this Ping'an Town? It looks very good. As you said, there are gold everywhere. Seeing that you abide by the agreement this time For the sake of it, you can pay back the 80,000 dry gold you owe me half a year later...the interest must not be less."
The woman was pretty, but when talking about money, her eyes were full of light.
"Wang Meitao." Wang Shihai's face changed, "How can I do it for half a year? Even if I work for Fourth Grandpa, I can't earn it for half a year... You must remember that the one hundred thousand yuan you got rich back then was given by me... "
This woman is Wang Meitao from the Monan Wang family. Back when she was a little yellow-haired girl with a runny nose, she was rewarded with one hundred thousand gold by the royal family Hai blindfolded.
The result is unstoppable.
With this original capital, she actually started lending money among the juniors of the Wang family in Monan, and showed a strong talent for it. In less than fifty years, that initial capital has turned into millions of dry gold.
Now she is well-known among her peers in Monan, and she is "hailed" as a vampire peach... Even the royal family Hai has suffered from it.
