Datang: Stop pretending, you are a peerless expert

In the courtyard of Langya Wang's Manor.

Eleven seats were arranged in the yard, and Wang He sat at the head of the middle one.

Wang Hu sat at the bottom, followed by the Xiao family of Lanling, and then the Xie family of Chenjun.

The patriarchs and suzerains of the major families have all arrived, and the only thing left is Xie Shan.

Everyone sit down and wait
Xiao Yu of the Xiao Clan in Lanling sneered and said, "Sect Master Xie is in such a grand situation now, let us all wait."

"The Xie family holds the distribution rights of Bingtang in their hands, and they are making a lot of money every day, so the ostentation is naturally great."

Wang Hu laughed.

This sentence ignited the jealousy in everyone's heart, and began to criticize Xie Shankou.

When everyone was talking lively, Xie Shan entered the courtyard with a dozen guards.

"Everyone came early, what are you talking about Xie?"

Xie Shan sneered and walked to the front of his seat, unexpectedly ranked third.

Xie Shan was upset, but sat down anyway, with the guard standing behind him.

"We said it was hard work waiting to thank the suzerain."

Wang Hu said with a smile.

When everyone was assembled, Wang He raised his glass and said, "Our big families in Jiangdong haven't been together for a long time."

"Thank you all for your face today. I would like to offer you a toast for coming to this small gathering."

Everyone drank, Xie Shan picked up the cup, but didn't actually drink.

He was worried that Wang Hu would poison him.

After exchanging pleasantries, Wang He looked at Wang Hu.

Everyone understood, waiting for Wang Hu to speak.

"Sovereign Xie, Ming people don't say dark words. Today's matter is mainly for the distribution rights of rock sugar."

Wang Hu said with a smile.

"The distribution rights of Bingtang are given by Miss Long. If you want it, go to Miss Long."

Xie Shan flatly refused.

Wang Hu still had a smiling face, but he was very unhappy in his heart.

Cursing secretly in my heart: Our Nine Great Clans will discuss with you calmly, don't be ignorant of good and evil.

Annoyed, our Nine Great Clans swallowed your Xie family.

It's not that Wang Hu didn't have this plan.

There are twelve big families in Jiangdong, and the relationship between them is intricate, so it can be regarded as peaceful.

Now the Zhu family in Wujun is gone, and the Yu family in Kuaiji closed their doors to thank guests.

There are only ten clans left.

Xie Shan's family eats too many benefits, and the nine big families are jealous together.

If the Wang family took the lead at this time and attacked the Xie family together, Tun would not be impossible.

"Thank you, Sect Master, we have looked for Miss Long."

Xiao Yu smiled slightly.

"Oh? I don't know how Miss Long replied?"

Xie Shan said coldly.

Xiao Yu said with a chuckle: "Miss Long said that if she agreed to give it to the Xie family, she would not give it to the second family. This is a matter of credibility."

"She said let's discuss it with Sect Master Xie."

Xie Shan was secretly happy when he heard this: Sure enough, Ms. Long is a trustworthy person, so she didn't give them the distribution rights.

"I, Xie, won the distribution rights of Bingtang myself, why should I give it to you?"

Xie Shan has money in his hand and speaks very hard.

Wang Hu laughed and said, "Sect Master Xie, you can't say that."

"For hundreds of years, the affairs of Jiangdong have been decided by the twelve clans together."

"Nowadays Bingtang is such a lucrative business, it's unreasonable for your family to monopolize it."

Others agree.

Xie Shan knew this would happen.

"Everyone, Xie is doing business to make money, and you all come to share a piece of the action."

"When did you give me the profitable business in your clan?"

"Sect Master Wang, how much did you earn from selling bamboo in Chang'an City, did you give it to me?"

Xie Shan sneered.

At that time, Su Yu was making paper in Chang'an City, and bamboo from the south of the Yangtze River was transported by water in Yangzhou City. Wang Hu saw the business opportunity and monopolized the business.

Their Wang Family did make a lot of money.

Xie Shan also wanted to do it at the time, but was blocked by the Wang family.

"I can give half of this small business to Sect Master Xie, and you can also give us half of your rock candy business. What do you think?"

Wang Hu laughed.

Xie Shan laughed loudly: "Sect Master Wang, do you treat me as a three-year-old child?"

The profits from selling bamboo and rock candy are vastly different, how could Xie Shan talk to Wang Hu.

"Sect Master Xie, Jiangdong's business, without the consent of our big families, you will not be able to do it stably."

"It's so easy to swallow it all by yourself, you should think it through yourself."

Xiao Yu, the patriarch of the Xiao Clan in Lanling, said.

Xiao Yu's words carried a threatening meaning.

Xie Shan sneered and said, "Sect Master Xiao, are you threatening me?"

The atmosphere becomes tense
Wang He, head of the Langya Wang Clan, held the wine, half stood up and said with a smile: "Why are the two sect masters like this, we are all relatives by marriage."

"I would like to offer a toast to all of you."

Xie Shan bowed and said: "Xie has some trivial matters, so I can't drink any more, so I take my leave."

With his own guards, Xie Shan left Zhuangzi.

After Xie Shan left, the Nine Great Clans scolded Xie Shan for being rude.

Wang He sneered and said, "What's the use of scolding like this, everyone?"

"If you want to get the rock candy, according to the old man, you need to use force from both sides."

Everyone understood what Wang He meant.

Wang Hu said: "Everyone, it's useless to persuade us with good words. Let's figure out a way by ourselves."

Xiao Yu sneered, "That's exactly what I mean."

To screen out the house slaves, a group of people began to conspire.

Xie Shan returned to Xie's Villa, Xie Shi asked how the banquet was going today.

Xie Shan sneered and said: "There is no good table, no good banquet, just like a Hongmen banquet."

"A group of old people wanted to force me to hand over the distribution rights of Bingtang, but I ignored them."

When he originally went, Xie Shan thought that he could give up some benefits, which could be regarded as easing the conflict.

But Wang Hu and Xiao Yu were aggressive, Xie Shan simply refused.

"Sovereign, we must prevent them from gathering together."

Xie Shi said.

"I know, let us pay attention to safety in the stores selling rock candy everywhere."

"Xie's Villa needs to strengthen its security, I guess they will jump over the wall in a hurry."

Xie Shan said.

The Lanling Xiao family is good at assassination and attacking. Xie Shan had to guard against what Xiao Yu said at the banquet.

"Does Miss Long need to say something?"

Xie Shi asked.

Xie Shan thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "No, let them try."

"This Miss Long is too mysterious, and I really want to know how strong she is."

Xie Shan is such an old fox.

Even if Changle gave him the distribution rights of Bingtang, he made a lot of money.

But in his eyes, Changle is not an ally either.

Not only did he not know about Chang Le, but he also wanted to use the hands of the Nine Great Clans to test the reality of Chang Le.

Xie Shi nodded, and said: "This Miss Long gives people the feeling that the dragon can't see the end."

Xie Shan said: "You do it right away, I guess these old guys will do it soon."

Xie Shi immediately went down to make arrangements.

Not to mention that Wang Hu's nine clans are plotting, Xie Shan is secretly preparing.

Li Shimin couldn't take it anymore in the house.

Su Yu was lying on the chair, watching Changle and Xiao Sizi fight with each other, with a handful of melon seeds in his hand, living comfortably.

Li Shimin walked up and down, restless.

"Old Li, you are such an old man, you can't hold your breath at all."

"You've only been home for a few days, and you want to go out for a walk."

Su Yu laughed.

Li Shimin took a few melon seeds from Su Yu's hands, and babbled while eating the melon seeds: "My dear brother, I usually say that you are not good at salted fish."

"But now I admire your concentration. You can lie down for several months without going out."

"Don't you feel bored?"

Li Shimin fought in the north and south, and was used to wandering around.

Since entering Yangzhou City, Li Shimin seemed to be under house arrest and couldn't stand it anymore.

Su Yu smiled slightly: "No, I'm quite comfortable staying at home, why am I bored?"

"It's so troublesome to go out, I'm exhausted, and I feel so comfortable now."

Li Shimin walked around Su Yu, taking two steps to get a few melon seeds, two steps to get a few melon seeds
Su Yu said with disgust: "Old Li, what do you mean, I want to eat melon seeds and go in and get them myself."

"Don't take it from me, I don't have much left."

Li Shimin didn't think so, and said, "My dear brother, is there anything suitable for indoor exercise?"

Seeing that Li Shimin was really going crazy, Su Yu looked pitiful.

"Let me think twice."

Su Yu said.
