If he wanted to cultivate faster, he would have to create an even more prosperous era!
Thinking about that, Chang Sheng anxiously stood up and acted dumb: "Uncle, uncle, I heard that County Palace is very fun, I want to go play at County Palace, I want to go, I want to escort them to play."
"Hmm? You want to go? " Chang Qianyi turned his head and looked at Chang Sheng, thinking that the County Lord was right, they did need a Innate Expert to escort them. Chang Jia had three Innate Expert s and as the Patriarch, his family was at a critical moment in expanding. He had to decide many things personally, so he definitely could not send the criminals away. As for Fang Xianyun, she needed to concoct pills and she could not travel. If she were to say the only Innate Expert that could make a move, it would be Chang Sheng, but when Chang Sheng left alone, he could not let his guard down.
Chang Qianyi hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Guo Feng and Misty, before saying: "Since Sheng Er wants to go to the County Palace, then let him play for a while. The two of you have been busy lately, and need to relax.
"Yes, Patriarch." They were all willing to follow Chang Sheng by his side. Furthermore, even if the Patriarch hadn't said it, they would have definitely suggested for Chang Sheng to stay with them, so they couldn't be at ease either.
Hearing that Chang Qianyi had personally agreed to send Chang Sheng out and that he had someone to assist him, Wu Shiju was relieved. With Innate Expert overseeing everything, there was no need to worry.
"Then I will have to thank you, Clan Leader Chang. The clan leader has always thought for the sake of the imperial government and is truly a role model for the people of my Daqi Dynasty. I must go to the imperial government and request for a reward." After saying that, he sighed, "Fortunately there is someone as profound and righteous as Clan Master Chang, otherwise, it would have been difficult. My Fengdu City's Fast Catcher s' strengths are really too weak!"
By the side, when Guo Feng heard Wu Shiju's flattery, he sighed a few times, and then suddenly walked out from the side, laughing while looking at Wu Shiju: "County Lord, actually, it's not like there's no other way to improve the strength of the Fast Catcher, they can use pellets to increase their strength, for example, Energetic Pill s, as long as they eat the Energetic Pill, they can increase their strength by 200 jin, and even though it is only 200 jin, they can sometimes affect the success or failure of an operation. A strength of 200 jins, if used by 100 people, would increase one's strength by 20,000 jins! "
"This Small Cause! He's so smart! "
Hearing Guo Feng's words, everyone present revealed looks of surprise. With Wu Shiju's normal words, he actually thought of selling the pellets, the Energetic Pill, in terms of Fengdu City, which family other than Chang Jia could sell the pellets to?!
"Right, right! This little mister is right! " "I don't know if it's the Palace Fast Catcher, but the strength of my Fengdu City's army is too weak. Even when exterminating bandits, I feel that it's somewhat inadequate, and if I buy a large number of Energetic Pill, the strength of my army will definitely increase by a few levels. At that time, it'll be even better to exterminate the bandits, and provide a peaceful environment for the citizens of my Fengdu City!"
"If I were to become the City Guard General, it would be best for me to buy a Energetic Pill worth one million silver taels. No, not only the Energetic Pill, there are also other pills that I would have to buy every season to increase the military's strength so that I can exterminate the bandits!"
Just as Xu Gui's voice fell, Gu Tianmo's voice sounded out in his mind: "Chang Sheng, this Xu Rich man is a character. He clearly wants to rope you in, Chang Jia, and make you guys say what's good for you, but when he speaks of it, other people would not be able to find anything wrong with it. Moreover, if he really becomes the City Guard General, then the profits from the extermination of the bandits will not be small.
"Pleasing Chang Jia, at the same time, you have benefits yourself, and he really wants to exterminate the bandits, really doing good for the citizens of Fengdu City, allowing them to live a more peaceful life, killing countless birds with one stone, he really is a person! But, if he wants to kill countless birds with one stone, and if Chang Jia wants to obtain benefits, he must first make him into the City Guard General! "
After a brief discussion between Chang Qianyi, Xu Gui and the three of them, the three of them agreed that there was no time to lose.
They still had many things to take care of, not only did they have to write the documents properly, they had to order the people to rush to the County Palace a step earlier, and inform the County Governor of the news of the five bandits that had already arrived. They also wanted to arrange for the officials and soldiers to be escorted by Chang Sheng. Other than that, there was another important matter, and that was to capture Lin Yuanzhi's son!
Although Lin Yuanzhi had been beaten to death, his son Lin Xian was still alive! As a martial general of the imperial government, Lin Yuanzhi actually colluded with the imperial government and was ordered to kill. According to the laws of the imperial government, Lin Xian, his son, would be executed as well!
When Wu Shiju and Xu Gui left, Chang Qianyi immediately called for Chang Sheng, Xu Yu and Guo Feng to come to his study room.
"Guo Feng, Faintly, on the way to County Palace, I will leave Sheng Er in your care." Chang Qianyi returned to his room, closed the door, and after speaking a few more words of advice to Misty Heaven and Guo Feng, his gaze fell upon Chang Sheng. "Sheng Er, you must listen to more of what your Senior Sister Piao Miao and Guo Feng are saying when you go to the County Palace this time, understand?"
"Mn, Chang Sheng will listen to Senior Sister Piao Miao!" Chang Sheng nodded his head heavily, ignoring Guo Feng.
Chang Qianyi nodded, and continued to speak: "Misty, Guo Feng, I'll leave Chang Sheng to you two on this trip to the County Palace. I will arrange for the second steward to bring a few servants and a few accounts to follow you through later. You guys should also prepare the things that you need to bring as soon as possible. Chang Qianyi nodded and continued speaking.
"Take the accounting office with you?" Faintly hearing what was said, she asked uncertainly. Why did they need to bring the account office to go to the County Palace?
Chang Qianyi nodded his head heavily: "That's right, we are bringing them to the accounts room. This time, other than escorting the Jiang Yang bandits, you also need to check the accounts at the County Palace, which is also the Mengshan City!"
Chang Qianyi's face revealed a trace of anger, "You guys should still remember the four elders. You should also know that their children and grandchildren all don't live in our Fengdu City. And we, Chang Jia, do not only have businesses in Fengdu City. In Mengshan City, we, Chang Jia, also have quite a few locations in Marketplace. "
"Hmm? Marketplace? " Chang Sheng was a little surprised upon hearing Chang Qianyi's words. His Marketplace was similar to that of the streets, but the scale of his Marketplace was much larger. For example, because Fengdu City was only a county city, there was no Marketplace, and only those very developed county cities, County Palace, and provincial cities had the existence of Marketplace. He never thought that Chang Jia would actually have Marketplace, and in many places at that! It seemed that Chang Jia's foundation was higher than he thought.
She had lived in Chang Jia's residence for so many years, yet she had never heard that Chang Jia had the Marketplace.
Chang Qianyi looked at the surprised expression on the ethereal face, and revealed a trace of satisfaction: "Those Marketplace were originally bought by the previous Group Leader, and were only in a few neighborhoods back then. Furthermore, at that time I had secretly arranged to get a piece of news from my brother. Those few pieces of land were likely to become business centres for the future development of the Mengshan City, so I had proposed to buy all of them. "
"Back then, when I had just taken over the position of Patriarch, my prestige was far from enough. At that time, there was a lot of opposition in the clan, and it was those four elders who pushed through the crowd and supported me in buying those Marketplace s!"
"Four elders!" How could they be so kind! " She never thought that the four clan elders, who were selfish and had always been against the patriarch, would be so kind to help the patriarch and send out objections.
"They definitely won't be so kind!" Guo Feng, who had not taken the initiative to speak since entering the room, finally took the initiative to speak: "They must have made a condition with the Patriarch, and only if the Patriarch agrees to their condition will they help the Patriarch. If my guess is not wrong, their condition is to have their son go to the County Palace to manage those few pieces of Marketplace! "
Hearing Guo Feng's words, Chang Qianyi couldn't help but turn his face away. "Guo Feng, you're really a genius. That's right, I, Chang Jia's Marketplace is exactly four points. When the four elders saw that my suggestion was blocked, they came to me and said that they could help me convince the rest of the clan. However, they said that in order to stop others from speaking, they needed their son to manage the Marketplace. In that case, their family members would have to take the four of them's prestige into consideration, and wouldn't be able to stop them. "
"At that time, I was still young and didn't see clearly the ugly expressions of the four old fellows. Moreover, they were helping the clan with this, so I agreed to their suggestion. After that, during the family meeting, they helped me convince others and passed my decision."
"It was fine when I bought the Marketplace a few years ago. In the first two years, the Marketplace naturally wouldn't be profitable, but there was no need for my clan to post a lot of money. After that, in the third year, the Marketplace had already started to make slight surpluses. But a year later, with the deaths of the two elders from the older generation of the family, those four old men became the oldest in the family. From then on, their Marketplace began to suffer losses, and the losses grew more and more every year. "
