The Zheng family, whether it is economic strength or the strength of martial artists, is far lower than the other three major families, so it is known as the poorest and weakest family.
You must know that in terms of economic strength, the Zheng family is not the opponent of the An family, and it is far lower than the Martial Arts Alliance in terms of martial arts, even so, the Zheng family can still become one of the four great families, the main reason is that the previous head of the Zheng family is an extremely powerful martial artist, and he also has a strong economic mind, and he almost single-handedly made the Zheng family among the four great families.
At this moment, the previous head of the Zheng family, the current elder of the family, Zheng Guohuang sat proudly in the main seat of the hall, although he looked old, with gray hair, but his eyes were still bright, exuding bursts of fine light, sitting on both sides of him were the other elders of the family, one by one wearing straight boards, like a tall monument.
If you look closely, you will find that the elders present are actually a little tired, and the youngest elder is close to sixty years old.
God is fair, when Zheng Guohuang is given all his talents, he ruthlessly deprives others of their abilities, Zheng Guohuang's brothers, without exception, are all wine-colored people, usually proficient in eating, drinking, and having fun, but when it comes to doing business and practicing martial arts, it is not bullshit.
If it weren't a big day for Zheng Guohuang to go out of the customs, these old guys would definitely not come, and they wouldn't be forced to maintain a standard sitting posture.
Under Zheng Guohuang's strength, the other elders felt not glory, but suffering, and they were struggling to suffer here, far from catching up, so they found a few young models to soak in the hot springs together.
Zheng Guohuang, who was not angry and arrogant, glanced at everyone coldly, and there was a hint of satisfaction in his serious expression, obviously he was still relatively satisfied with the performance of his unsuccessful brothers today.
The elders should be involved, and the younger generations dare not be careless, you know, the great elder has always been known for being tough, and if you make a small mistake in front of the elder, you may suffer from family law.
Therefore, none of the people present dared to be careless, even Zheng Shitian, the eldest son and eldest grandson of the Zheng family, who was currently second only to the Great Elder in the hall, did not dare to smile at this moment, but sat next to the Great Elder with a strained face.
The Zheng family, although it is a modern family, still maintains ancient traditions, especially in terms of generation and rank.
If Zheng Shirui was here, as the head of the family, he would definitely sit in the first place, but Zheng Shirui was absent, and the great elder naturally sat in the main seat, and Zheng Shitian, as the eldest son and eldest grandson of the family, was the number two person in the hall, and his status was higher than that of other elders.
After a long time, the Great Elder seemed to feel that it was too cruel to let his unsuccessful brothers maintain a standard sitting posture, so he said lightly: "You are old, and your body bones are no longer strong, so change to a comfortable sitting position." ” The elders hurriedly got up and bowed to the Great War Elder and thanked him, and the servants quickly brought pillows and cushions, and rearranged the seats, and the elders sat down, Rao is Great Elder was relieved, but the elders still did not dare to be presumptuous, and tried their best to keep themselves in a standard sitting posture.
The Great Elder turned his head to look at Zheng Shitian who was sitting next to him, for this grandson, the Great Elder was very doting like ordinary people, and even to the point of outrageousness, that is, because of the Great Elder's doting, Zheng Shitian was lawless and became the notorious second ancestor of Pengcheng.
"Shitian, what about your father, today is the day I go out, as the head of the family, why don't you be there" The Great Elder said in a deep voice, with a strong dissatisfaction in his tone, over the years, in order to improve his strength as soon as possible and support the Zheng family, the Great Elder gave up all the rights of the family and chose to retreat, and for more than ten years, he finally made a breakthrough.
Facing the question of the Great Elder, Zheng Shitian did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly said: "My father and Jiang Chu, the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance, went to the An family together, and prepared to have a showdown with the An family and completely seize all the properties of the An family. ” Hearing this, the Great Elder snorted dissatisfiedly.
Zheng Shitian couldn't understand why the Great Elder snorted coldly when he heard this, could it be that he said something wrong Father personally went out to unite with the Martial Arts Alliance to deal with the An family together, no matter from which point of view, it was the wisest choice.
Especially after the Zheng family's smuggling business in the border area was devastated, the Zheng family has already suffered severe losses, and if it continues to be consumed with the An family, even if it wins in the end, the Zheng family will suffer huge losses.
"The Martial Arts Alliance is a loose alliance composed of a group of loose cultivators, with no background and no rules.
As the head of the Zheng family, one of the four great families, it was really damaging to the family's face to cooperate with such a low-level organization as the Martial Arts Alliance.
The Great Elder snorted dissatisfiedly. has been committed to building the family into the great elder of the upper family, has always adhered to the principle that the family's partners must have enough background and level, such as the other three families, as for the martial arts alliance that has not been established for a long time, it is completely relying on strong force to occupy a place in Pengcheng, even now, it has not been recognized by the upper class of Pengcheng society.
What's more, in order to increase its strength, the Martial Arts Alliance is constantly recruiting troops and buying horses, and those who come do not refuse, there are all kinds of goods, and the quality is uneven.
"Grandfather, my father did this in order to end the war of attrition with the An family as soon as possible, so he had to cooperate with the Martial Arts Alliance."
Zheng Shitian explained stubbornly.
"After so many years of fighting with the An family, we have been at a disadvantage, and now we finally have the upper hand, we must defeat it once and for all, otherwise there will be endless troubles."
The Great Elder slapped the table fiercely and said angrily: "What nonsense, could it be that the Zheng family, which is a member of the four great families, needs to cooperate with the Martial Arts Alliance that is not in the stream in order to defeat the second-rate family An family During my retreat, what have you all done immediately report the situation of the family to me." ” Hearing this, Zheng Shitian was in trouble, unlike the proud and invincible Zheng Shirui, since being cleaned up by Ling Tian, Zheng Shitian has become cautious, especially after the smuggling business of the family in the border area was devastated, Zheng Shitian paid close attention to the situation in northern Myanmar, not long ago, the spies sent by the family to northern Myanmar sent back important information.
The ruler of northern Burma, the lord of Longtang City, Shi Wang, has been killed, and now the ruler of Longtang City is a man named Huang Xing, who is said to have reorganized the jade industry in northern Burma as soon as he came to power, and as the lord of Longtang City, he sent assistants to other mining areas to prepare to bring all the mining areas under his rule.
This is devastating news for the Zheng family, the Zheng family, who can't compete with the mature and huge marketing system of the An family, the only trump card in his hand is the source of goods, which is the last killer weapon of the Zheng family, and it is also the most powerful weapon, but unfortunately, now this last trump card has also been lost.
Of course, at present, the Zheng family still has a chance to win, because the An family is almost unable to bear it under the onslaught of the Zheng family, coupled with the threat of the Martial Arts Alliance, it is only a matter of time before the An family fails, perhaps now the An family has admitted defeat under the threat of his father and the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance, and obediently took out all the family property.
But at this moment, what Zheng Shitian will never forget the most is the daughter of the An family, An Qi.
Of course, what Zheng Shitian hopes most at the moment is that Huang Xing, the new ruler of Longtang City, is better not a person from the An family, or has no relationship with the An family.
According to the news sent back by the spies, Huang Xing had a grudge with Shi Wang before, and recently succeeded in defeating Shi Wang with the help of a super master.
This means that the killing of King Shi is just a reorganization of internal forces in northern Myanmar, which should have nothing to do with the An family, and besides, the An family does not have this strength, otherwise, the An family would have fought back against the Zheng family a long time ago.
Thinking of this, Zheng Shitian said in a low voice: "Grandfather, the border business you created before has been completely interrupted for some reason, and we have also been investigated by the Security Bureau, and the second uncle has been detained by the Security Bureau.
I also got bad news just now, your friend, Mr.
Shi Wang, has been killed in the civil strife" Before Zheng Shitian finished speaking, the Great Elder's face had become extremely solemn, in order to allow the Zheng family to quickly accumulate capital and obtain strong financial support, the Great Elder Zheng Guohuang personally went to the border area, and spent several years to successfully establish a smuggling channel, which can bring hundreds of millions of net income to the Zheng family every year.
In order to monopolize the supply of jadeite, the Great Elder Zheng Guohuang chose to support the Stone King and make him the city lord of Longtang City But now, everything is gone, more than ten years of hard work and maintenance have been ruined in a short period of time, and Zheng Shitian's words later, the Great Elder has no heart to listen.
The Great Elder slapped the table violently, the expensive mahogany table turned into pieces in an instant, and the atmosphere in the hall became very depressing and dull, facing the angry Great Elder, everyone in the hall, including the Great Elder's favorite eldest son and eldest grandson Zheng Shitian, did not dare to come out of the atmosphere.
For fear of angering the Great Elder.
"Bastards, a bunch of idiots, the foundation I've worked so hard to build has been ruined by you incompetent idiots."
The Great Elder said angrily, because of the retreat and cultivation, and reaching the realm of Qi Transformation as soon as possible, the Great Elder put down the family industry, and he hadn't asked much for more than ten years, but he didn't expect to get so much bad news when they went out of the customs together today.
"Send someone to find Zheng Shirui's evil obstacle back immediately, I want to ask him, what has he done all these years to destroy the thriving Zheng family."
The Great Elder said angrily.
The angry Great Elder was very terrifying, and almost all of them stood up, wanting to go to Zheng Shirui and take the opportunity to leave this oppressive place.
Even Zheng Shitian, the most favored eldest son and eldest grandson, was a little unbearable.

The Great Elder said coldly, "Just sit down and arrange for the servants to go and find them." ” t1706231537:
