Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish

However, not long after Yang Hongyu was appointed as the heir of the family, Yang's mother gave birth to another son, Yang Erbao.

After Yang Hongyu's repeated insistence and pressure from the elders of the family, Yang's father finally designated Yang Erbao as the next heir to the family head.

As for the engagement with Chu Mo, Yang's father and Chu's father had already been married by fingertips in their early years. Before Yang Hongyu became the heir, they always thought that Yang Hongyu would have to pay for it.

But later, because Yang Hongqian was secretly sent away by Yang's father, the clan elders collectively put pressure on Yang's father, forcing Yang's father to directly remove Yang Hongqian from the family tree.

Even if the name has been removed, it means that there is no such person. The person who made an engagement with Chu Mo will naturally become Yang Hongyu.

It was precisely because Yang Hongqian was abandoned by her father and family for no reason that she felt resentful. She always thought that Yang Hongyu had robbed her of everything, so she wanted to take it back. That's why the two daughters fought for her husband.

However, Yang's father and Yang's mother both died due to an accident two years ago. The huge Yang family was instantly divided into separate affairs, with only Yang Hongyu barely maintaining the semblance of family status.

If it weren't for Yang Hongyu's explosive martial arts and Chu Mo's strong rise in Chang'an City during this period, which made the Yang family members fearful, it's hard to say that the Yang family would have fallen apart long ago.

But it was precisely because of Chu Mo's rise that the elders of the Yang family focused on this big fat piece of meat and targeted them, hoping to take advantage of the opportunity and get a share of the pie.

Although Yang Hongyu had been aware of it for a long time, due to the seniority of the clan elders and the fact that he was an unknown teacher, there was nothing he could do against them for the time being.

This time it was also the clan elders who learned of Yang Hongqian's appearance and wanted to take advantage of the two sisters to recognize each other. Yang Hongyu wanted to restore Yang Hongqian's identity and re-enter her name into the family tree.

The clan elders put forward all kinds of harsh demands and wanted to make profits from it. They even forced shopkeeper Liu, an old man of the Yang family and a butler-like figure around Yang Hongyu, to be at their mercy.

Although Shopkeeper Liu was unhappy, he was a member of the Yang family first, and Shopkeeper Liu second.

He had no reason to refuse the clan elder's order, and it was impossible for him to refuse.

Since Yang Hongyu transferred her identity as heir to Yang Erbao, she is just the eldest lady of the Yang family, a woman who is about to marry someone else. How can she compare with the Yang family.

It is precisely because of this that in the eyes of Shopkeeper Liu, an old man of the Yang family, Yang Hongyu is no longer considered a Yang family. He has to consider the real Yang family and will not hesitate to intercept a large amount of resources from Chu Mo to provide for the Yang family.

In the past few days, Yang Hongyu also discovered the little tricks of the clan elders, so she persuaded Yang Hongqian to cooperate with her, pretending to want to return to the clan, deceiving the clan elders, and took the opportunity to find out the personnel they had placed under her, and began Vigorous rectification.

However, Yang Hongyu was hampered by the fact that her younger brother would inherit the family business in the future, and the elders were also members of the Yang family, so she could not directly kill them. She could only comfort them first, and use the threat of force as a supplement, in order to let them live in peace.

After listening to Shopkeeper Liu's narration, Chu Mo almost laughed angrily.

As for shopkeeper Liu, an old man from the Yang family, he didn't know how to evaluate him. He couldn't say that the other party's idea was right, but he couldn't say that he was wrong either.

After all, everyone has their own ideas. Chu Mo can't let everyone think around their own interests, but he can't see others coveting his own industry, eating his own food, and doing things that harm his own interests.

With a sigh, Chu Mo said to Zhang San: "From today on, you are not allowed to let this guy out of your sight without my order. Wait until my wife comes back and let her handle everything on her own."

As he said that, Chu Mo looked at the village chief at the door.

The village chief understood instantly, trotted in, bowed to Chu Mo and said: "Uncle, our Yang family village is only loyal to the eldest lady. As for other elders and Yang family members, they are all the same as us." It’s irrelevant.”

Looking at the village chief's old face with a smile like a chrysanthemum, Chu Mo nodded and said with some meaning: "Old village chief, remember what you said today. I hope you will keep your word. If you let me know that you don't mean what you say, then I will When the time comes, I will personally take action and wipe out the entire Yangjia Village."

The village chief wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, stood up straight, and said with a serious face: "Don't worry, uncle, if one day any of the children of my Yang family village dare to betray the eldest lady, I don't need to take action, the old man will definitely be the first one." Rush up and clear the door.”

Seeing that the other party was so determined, Chu Mo nodded with satisfaction: "In that case, old village chief, please prepare yourself. After this winter, you will follow me to the Lingnan fiefdom."

The old village chief was stunned for a moment, and then he smiled bitterly and said: "Please forgive me. Without the order of the eldest lady, I will not go anywhere. But as long as the eldest lady gives the order, I will go up the mountain of swords and the sea of ​​fire. We I also swear to follow the eldest lady to the death.”

When he heard that the other party needed Yang Hongyu's nod before agreeing to move, Chu Mo did not make things difficult for the other party, but just asked them to pay more attention to frost protection.

After handling the affairs between Shopkeeper Liu and Yangjiacun, Chu Mo asked Zhang San and Li Si to allocate half of their manpower from now on to fully cooperate with Li Zhenying to take over their own industry from Shopkeeper Liu.

As for the remaining 500 people, Chu Mo asked Wang Wu and Zhao Liu to take them and start a comprehensive recruitment.

He still remembered that Li Shimin had given him another quota of 3000 guards. If he didn't recruit troops to fill up the quota as soon as possible, when he arrived in Lingnan, would he go to the mountains to catch savages?

As for Zhai Changsun, who had just surrendered, Chu Mo asked him to assist Wang Wu, Zhao Liu and others in the future and be responsible for the daily training of the newly recruited guards.

In order to prevent the other party from escaping, Chu Mo also ordered him to be strictly guarded and not allowed to leave his side for twelve hours. If the other party dared to have the intention to escape, regardless of whether he succeeded or not, his legs would be broken first.

Zhai Changsun did not dare to have any resentment in his heart for Chu Mo's special reception.

After all, I have been in the pig pen for so long. Although I am now being guarded like a prisoner, my treatment has been improved a lot. Although I am not grateful, I am not resentful either. This may be the "Stockholm Syndrome" "Bar.

After handing over a few people, Chu Mo returned to Chang'an City with the mother and daughter of the Shi family, the guards borrowed from the Li family, and 50 young men from Yangjia Village led by Yang Dazhi.

A natural disaster is imminent, and he must stay in Chang'an City at all times to prevent his plan from going wrong again.

Since Chu Mo did not deliberately avoid other people's eyes during this trip, his schedule today was clearly known to all parties.

When everyone learned that Chu Mo had gone to a rural village and was humiliated by a woman, they all danced with joy and wished they could appear in front of Chu Mo right now and humiliate him.

After Chu Xin heard Chu Mo's whereabouts, although she was suspicious, she didn't pay too much attention.
