Jia Qiang laughed and said: "Since you always think like this, then I won't repeat it. Besides, with the strength of all the outstanding people in the Qi family, I will definitely be able to gain a foothold overseas by myself, and I will definitely be able to protect the Qi family by myself." The one that stays in Dayan will not be coveted by others. Count me for talking too much, count me for talking too much!"

Qi Taizhong's complexion changed slightly upon hearing this.

Looking at Jia Qiang, she felt enlightened.

Strangely, Jia Qiang only cooperated with the Qi family to make a living in an ice room and a restaurant, and had little to do with the rest.

Just relying on the intersection of these two interests, it is indeed far from being an alliance.

Now it seems that the bet is a little lighter...

On the other side, Qi Yun also faintly realized, no wonder Jia Qiang didn't even refute when he settled accounts with Jia Qiang just now.

It turned out that in Jia Qiang's mind, the Qi family owed too little...

The Qi family always wanted to gain favor with Jia Qiang, using favor to implicate Jia Qiang, Lin Ruhai behind him, and even Han Banshan.

I hope that when the New Deal prevails in the future, the Qi family will not be liquidated.

But Jia Qiang is not a fuel-efficient lamp, she always stays awake.

Favors belong to favors, and the exchange of interests belongs to the exchange of interests.

This person's calmness makes people feel terrible...

At this moment, Qi Yun felt ashamed because of his vision and layout.

It is also because Qi Taizhong is still worried about the safety of the descendants of the Qi family at this age, so he feels self-blame and shame.

Qi Taizhong seemed to see through Qi Yun's mind, and smiled and comforted: "The Qi family has been able to maintain peace and wealth for so many years because they have been trapped in Yangzhou Prefecture for a year, and the children of the Qi family did not go to the exam for fame or become officials. Speaking of it, I got it at the expense of the future of two generations of you. Now, if you do the calculations, you may not have earned much. Don't think highly of him, the good minister and little friend are just used to taking advantage of it. It was Han Banshan , Lin Ruhai and others, it took decades of hard work to build up their reputation, and the emperor's ambition to reform the old government... Otherwise, why would he threaten the old man face to face today?"

When Jia Qiang heard this, she was not angry but happy. She laughed and said: "Never have such intentions, absolutely no such intentions! How dare you threaten your old age, kid? It's just a discussion. I am getting more and more entangled with the interests of the Qi family. For me, You have a long life of [-] years, and a long life of [-] years is the best! With you always here, I basically don’t have to worry about Yangzhou Prefecture. With you and the Qi family, my business in Yangzhou Prefecture will only Is it not a good thing to prosper day by day and make money? How can you threaten the Qi family and your old age? Father, I hope that the Qi family can develop well and develop in the long run more than anyone else, because overseas is not only for the Qi family. The retreat, maybe, will also be the retreat for me and my family. But, wouldn’t it be better if we could not go to the last step? Don’t the Qi family want to walk freely in Dayan? So, why bother to cling to those favors?”

Qi Taizhong sighed, looked at Jia Qiang, and said slowly: "If God gives this old man another [-] years, why should the Qi family worry about this?"

……

Coming out of Qi Yuan, Jia Qiang's eyes were much brighter.

Today's bountiful harvest really made him happy!

Although it is impossible for Qi Taizhong to give him all the incenses he has managed all his life, especially the top ones, it is even more impossible.

But the people he gave now are already precious to Jia Qiang.

Jia Qiang has no use for the Jia family's connections, nor does he have any part in it.

Lin Ruhai's...

After entering Beijing, it was not easy for Lin Ruhai to protect himself. Jia Qiang thought that there was nothing he could do to help, and it was best not to be a pig teammate and hold back.

And the time he has been in business is too short, and the little favors he spread out are hard to be of much use.

Therefore, the people on the list given to him by Qi Taizhong are very precious.

From the Ministry of Officials, from the Ministry of Punishment, from the Ministry of Industry, from the Ministry of Rites, from Dali Temple, from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, from Yushitai, from Shuntian Prefecture...

The official position may not be obvious, but they are all powerful figures, very practical.

Riding on the horse, Jia Qiang began to quickly think about how to use these people to maximize their value.

It's just that I can't calm down for a while, and I can't think of any magic method.

Just put it down for now and enjoy the bustling street scene of Yangzhou Prefecture...

As the New Year approaches, the streets of Yangzhoufu are crowded with crowds of people.

All kinds of cries one after another, the laughter and cursing of adults, and the chasing and playing of naughty children, outline a prosperous scene.

But after looking at it for a long time, it's just like that, and it's too noisy.

The main road was difficult, so Jia Qiang suggested that Gao Long lead the team and return home by a more remote branch road.

Although it is farther away, the time spent is afraid that it will be much faster than moving a little bit along the main street.

"Brother Shang, what's going on outside recently, is there any progress?"

In a typical Jiangnan alley, Baiyuan, Daiwa, Qingshiban Road.

Jia Qiang was riding on the horse and asked Shang Zhuo who was beside him.

On Shang Zhuo's plain face, there was a hint of embarrassment, and he shook his head and said: "There is not much progress. After the fall of the Bai, Shen, Zhou, and Wu families, the Qi family immediately sent people to contact the people behind the four families. These people already knew, it was easy to find them, and they were willing to bid. Originally, we didn’t have much hope. If the Qi family didn’t look for these people to go to the unknown land of Nanman, we can say that there is no hope at all. Although the current group of people I was worried that life and death would be unpredictable after going to sea, but the price the Qi family offered was too high, and they also promised to take care of their family to establish a foothold in Yangzhou Mansion. In addition, those people trust the Qi family more and are more wary of us, so right now we are still Not much progress."

After the four families of Bai, Shen, Zhou, and Wu were raided, the masters secretly raised by the four families were all seasoned masters who had seen blood, assassination, detection, concealment, and make-up.

These people don't care about loyalty, they have a certain degree of loyalty, as long as the money is in place.

Their loyalty is different from that of Gao Long and Shang Zhuo.

Gao Long and Shang Zhuo are loyal to human nature, while the loyalty of those who do not see the light is the loyalty to professional ethics.

"Unless the young master tells us to kill and use quack methods to subdue these people!"

Gao Long, who was leading the way, turned around, looked at Jia Qiang and smiled.

Shang Zhuo also nodded and said: "Young master, what Lao Gao said is right, these people are real Jiang Hu people. If you want to subdue them completely, you have to spend money on them to convince them and work hard. Or you can beat them with fists and knives." They are convinced and willing to vote. Convincing people with virtue is a joke in this circle.”

Jia Qiang nodded, and after thinking for a while, she smiled and said, "If that's the case, how long will it take to conquer Yangzhou City if I entrust this matter to the two of you?"

Shang Zhuo chuckled, and said: "As long as the Qi family doesn't obstruct, Lao Gao and I can fight each other in less than ten days. In fact, the real usefulness of those people is not in their martial arts, but in their unique skills." Some people are good at stealing, some are good at lurking, some are good at poisoning, some are good at ventriloquism, and some are good at bewitching... Lao Gao and I can take care of those who fight and kill. People, I can teach myself. But others, we are not good at. It is best for these people to charge more, the young master is easy to handle."

Gao Long shook his head and said, "We want it, and the Qi family wants it too. His family is going to take root overseas, and it was the time when Cao Mang started it. There are not too many people like this."

Jia Qiang said thoughtfully: "It seems that we still have to think of a way."

He also wanted to slowly accumulate his background. Isn't the innocent person he cultivated fragrant?

However, there is not much time left for him.

He didn't want to do everything possible to suck blood to grow stronger, and if he really waited until he returned to Beijing with Lin Ruhai, the situation would be turbulent, not to mention others, the dignitaries behind the four families of Bai, Shen, Zhou, and Wu, would they let him go?

Therefore, he is determined to win this group of people.

Now let's see, how to find ways to balance the competition of the Qi family...

"Sir, be careful!!!"

Just when Jia Qiang was thinking about how to persuade Qi Jia to let go, she suddenly heard a burst of shouting in her ears, and Shang Zhuo who was beside her threw her under the horse.
