Protect Our Patriarch

...

West of Changning Acropolis, the corner of a delta at the junction of Jinsha River and Anjiang River is called Ningxi Town.

The terrain of Ningxi Town is much flat, with large and small rivers crisscrossing the area under its jurisdiction. The soil is rich and rich in fish and rice. It is one of the important granaries in Changningwei.

There are two families in this town for generations, one is the Dang family in Ningxi, and the other is the Liang family in Ningxi.

The Dang family in Ningxi is a dignified eight-class family and occupies most of the high-quality land resources in Ningxi Town. The Liang family in Ningxi is a small Nine-Rank family. For many years, they have lived carefully, that is, they have to deal with the "beast" of the Dang family for a long time, and they want to develop and grow constantly to get out of the predicament.

Eighteen or nine years ago.

The Liang clan in Ningxi had mistakenly participated in the action between the Wang clan and the Liu clan. As a result, the Wang clan was severely slashed and the resources accumulated by his ancestors were consumed a lot.

It stands to reason.

The Liang family in Ningxi, who suffered from this trauma, is very likely to be completely helpless, gradually unable to withstand the party family's embezzlement overtly or secretly, and eventually vanish into the "long river of history."

But now the Liang family has not decayed, on the contrary, the more life is, the more moist it is. In just 18 or 9 years, a second ancestor of the Lingtai Stage was cultivated, forming a two-spiritual pattern, and there was a faint resistance against the rituals of the powerful Ningxi Dang family.

The biggest project that caused such a miraculous situation was Liang Haofeng, the ancestor of the Liang family. Although he suffered a big loss in the hands of the Wang family, he can also see the prosperity of the Wang family and the momentum of future development.

While actively making compensation, relying on the previous relationship with Lu Mingsheng, he tried every means to close the relationship with Wang to make up the rift. Over time, he gradually gained some Wang's trust.

Among some core farms, they have been awarded grain seeds such as Wang's No. 7 for planting and production. While Wang sent people to supervise, he also gave a good price to purchase these grains uniformly.

By helping the Wang family to "work", the "family income" of the Liang family in Ningxi has been rising steadily. With money, they also learned that the Wang family generally expanded their clan properties, mainly focusing on purchasing, expansion, and fine-grained land reclamation.

The so-called fine wasteland reclamation refers to the practice of transforming some land that was originally land reclamation into a huge cost and transforming the topography and topography to form good land.

For example, some rocky slopes, swamps and depressions, etc., are usually not cost-effective to open up wasteland because of the huge investment. But as the income per mu increases, those that are not cost-effective gradually become cost-effective.

With the fine development in the jurisdiction, a small copper ore vein with a deep buried depth has been opened up. In this way, the development of the Liang family will take another step forward.

This day.

Several carriages traveled from the main residence of the Liang family, all the way to the east.

The last two carriages were loaded with some fresh ling melon and ling fruit from Lingtian, pickled ling fish caught in Anjiang and Jinsha Rivers, and Bai Yuling rice wine produced and brewed in our own farm, hundreds of high-quality cloths. , And thousands of jin of refined copper ingots.

The total amount of materials added up is probably worth tens of thousands of dollars.

In the carriage at the beginning, there are two men, an old and a young, and a young girl who thinks he looks like a fourteen or five-year-old.

The old man has a clear look, his old eyes are introverted, and he sits still on the carriage as steady as Mount Tai.

The young man is about seventeen or eighteen years old. He wears a jade crown on his head, a brocade robe, a mutton jade ribbon around his waist, and black sword boots. He also holds a delicately crafted sword in his hand with a scabbard. It is ferocious python leather, inlaid with green jewels.

This young man has a handsome face like a crown, and he is really handsome and handsome.

The cardamom girl had clean and clear eyes, and her skin was white and tender as if she was trying to get water out of a pinch. She was blinking her big watery eyes and asked curiously: "Old ancestors, I'm bored all the way, you can tell me the story of Wang's Longyan ancestor."

"Sister, you have heard the story of Longyan's ancestor countless times, and your ears are almost getting calluses." The handsome young laughed, "In my opinion, the reason why the Wang Clan of Heaven can develop so fast is all Relying on the merits of the patriarch Wang Shouzhe, the creative and eclectic, and foresight of the predecessors of Shouzhe, as well as the meticulous layout, are indeed a learning model for my younger generation."

"Brother, I know that you admire Shouzhe senior because he was also a low-grade first-class qualification at the time, and passed the initial entrance examination of the Zifu Academy. Last time someone praised you for having the style of Shouzhe. Remember it in my heart." The girl cardamom pursed her mouth and said, "As far as I can see, the Wang Family of Heaven is in this situation, but the ancestor of Longyan, a strange woman, has held up the sky."

The handsome young men also didn't give in. The two argued for idols.

Seeing the dispute between the two younger generations, the old man swept his eyes with majesty: "Hongxuan, Mu Qing, you don't want to argue. The Wang Clan of Heaven can start from a small, ninth-rank family, and jump to the famous Long Zuo Nan in one fell swoop. The celestial family of the six guards, the ancestor of Longyan and the Patriarch of Shouzhe are indispensable for each other. The past of the two predecessors, let's just talk about it in a small carriage."

"Once you get outside, especially in Ping An Town, don't talk freely, and be careful to speak out of your mouth."

"Yes, ancestor Haofeng, we should be cautious about what we say and do." The two juniors both closed their mouths respectfully and well. After all, they are the sons and daughters of the Liang family, and their education since childhood is very strict.

This group of three are the ancestors of Liang's Haofeng, as well as the eldest son Liang Hongxuan and the second daughter Liang Muqing. This time sufficient supplies were prepared for the trip, naturally in order to rush to Ping'an Town to participate in the promotion feast of the Celestial King Longyan.

This "Wang family banquet" is a good time for the Wang family to be fond of Liang. Bringing the eldest son is to see and see. But to bring the second daughter, it is Liang's careful thought, want to see if there is a chance for the "relationship" with Wang to go further.

Liang's motorcade detoured to the south side of Changning Weicheng, and went east along Anjiang all the way to Changning Guandu.

Today's Changning Guandu has changed a lot from more than ten years ago. The original ferry has been demolished and rebuilt, and the area has expanded several times. The building materials used are solid and durable cement mortar and a new type of building material called hollow brick.

Hollow bricks are large-scale bricks made by firing at one time. The building has a fast forming speed and contains a lot of cement components, so the structure is firm and the sound insulation effect is very good.

This hollow brick and new frame structure construction method is the first creation of the Tianren Wang family. It is said that there are already many new structure buildings in Ping'an Town.

However, it is still relatively rare in the north of Anjiang.

"It is said that in the past few years, the Celestial Wang family couldn't bear the inefficiency of Changning Guandu." Liang Haofeng got out of the carriage with the junior and visited the Xindukou Road. "Therefore, after several negotiations and entanglements between the Patriarch of Shouzhe and Chengshou Mansion, he finally It took a lot of money to take down the Changning Ferry and expand it. Tsk tsk, the Guandu can be taken down, which shows that Patriarch Shouzhe’s methods are powerful."

"These grounds are all cement and flat ground." Liang Hongxuan also praised, "So, even if it is rainy, it won't be muddy, and it will be clean when you step on it."

When the Liang family were talking.

Suddenly, a vigorous old man's voice sounded not far away: "Isn't this the ancestor of Liang's Haofeng? You actually came to participate in Wang's feast of heaven and man more than ten days in advance?"

Liang Haofeng looked back, and he was indeed an old acquaintance. He laughed and said, "Isn't this the ancestor of Xing'an Sun's Yunfei? Are you also going to participate in the feast of heaven and man in advance?"

He glanced at Sun Yunfei, and saw that he was taking a few young people with him, followed by a few carriages. At this time, when he came to Changning Ferry, he was naturally going to participate in the feast of heaven and man.

Xing'an Town is located in the middle of Shanyang and Donggang. Due to its low-lying terrain, there are many lakes and less fertile land in the area, so the development is not very good. Even so, that poor place was crowded with three ninth-grade families.

Sun Yunfei smiled heartily: "Thanks to the care of the Tianren Wang Family Alliance, we vigorously promote reed planting techniques in our Xing'an area, so that our Xing'an three poor families have a good life."

"Can you make money by planting reeds?" Liang Haofeng was slightly surprised, "The reeds can't keep warm, and the roots are tasteless..."

"Ordinary varieties can't work. It's just that the Donggang Chen family obtained a high-yielding reed species from overseas. They have developed root systems and are more suitable for water and sage land. They grow very fast. Only a small amount of manpower and material resources are needed to use all the water and sage." While excited, Sun Yunfei said helplessly, "It's just that the waters of the waters, which no one cared about before, have now become sweet and delicious. Our poor families have accumulated more grievances over the years."

"Come here earlier this time, I also want to discuss with the Patriarch Shouzhe, whether they can come forward to mediate..."

Liang Haofeng glanced at their carriage full of gifts, and the two beautiful girls among the younger generations, and sneered secretly in his heart. Why come to discuss with Patriarch Shouzhe in advance? You clearly came to favor Wang Clan earlier. It's good to use Wang's name to suppress your two old opponents.

However, it doesn't make sense to see through.

One is that Liang Haofeng and Sun Yunfei have no grievances and no grudges, and the other is that Liang Haofeng came in advance and wanted to cheat on the Wang clan, so that the juniors and the Wang clan juniors can get closer and closer.

Two old guys who lived a hundred and dozen years old, while their hearts were clear, they chatted with each other like old friends who had reunited after a long time. The juniors on both sides also met each other and knew each other well.

Everyone is from Changningwei's dynasty family, and it's a good thing to know each other more.

"My old friend, Haofeng, I heard that your little friend from Hongxuan passed the preliminary entrance examination of the Academy this time?" Sun Yunfei looked at Liang Hongxuan with some envy, "This son looks good, if there is a chance to enter the Zifu Academy If you don’t, you won’t be able to escape from a spiritual platform in the future. By then, your Ningxi Liang family will be an eighth-grade family of three spiritual platforms."

"Haha, it's just passing the first test. I have to say if I can pass the final test when I go to the academy." Liang Haofeng spoke modestly, but the pride and pride in his eyes could not be concealed. Of course, if you get in with the re-examination, the future will basically be an ordinary student in an academic palace. It's mostly the kind of watching the seniors from Xuegong fighting on the ring, and then applauding crazily below, with a face full of admiration.

But even so, this is a rare opportunity for the Ninth-Rank family, even for hundreds of years. The probability of the eighth-rank aristocratic family is much higher, let alone the seventh-rank aristocratic family, if one is willing, each generation can join one person to become an ordinary disciple.

At this time, Liang Hongxuan, because of his outstanding appearance and the identity that has passed the preliminary examination of the Academy, has faintly become the little boss among young people after communicating with each other, and there is some lofty arrogance in the talk and laughter.

At this moment.

The large ferry has arrived, and everyone is getting on the boat in an orderly manner, and the carriage has a corresponding position for the carriage to stop. Now that the ferry has been expanded, the throughput on both sides has become larger, and there will be ferry boats in less than half an hour, and now it only carries half of its capacity.

Just after the two small families of Liang Haofeng got on the boat, suddenly, a huge convoy appeared outside the ferry. One of the middle-aged knights rode up and yelled before the ferry: "Ferry and wait a minute, I am Gongsun Qiang, and our Shanyang Gongsun family is going to get on the boat."

The steward in charge of this large ferry was agitated, and hurriedly replied: "I must obey the order of the ancestor Qiang." These ferry boats are now in charge of Wang's people.

And Shanyang Gongsun Qiang was not an ordinary person, even Patriarch Shouzhe had to call him uncle politely when he saw him.

Naturally, the rest of the tourists did not have any opinions. Today's Shanyang Gongsun clan is an eighth-grade family, and is the mother of the Shouzhe Patriarch, with an extraordinary status.

Carriage after carriage drove into the ferry.

Because of the separation of people and cars on board, everyone of the Gongsun clan got out of the carriage and walked on the boat according to the rules.

"That is the ancestor of the Gongsun clan." Liang Haofeng narrowed his eyes. "I haven't seen him in a hurry for eighteen years. Has Gongsunzhao's strength reached such an unfathomable level? I can't see through it at all, I'm afraid it is. The fifth or sixth floor of the Lingtai Realm."

"The ancestor Tong is only about a hundred years old now." Sun Yunfei also envied him, "At this age, the cultivation base, coupled with the wealth of the Gongsun clan nowadays, the ancestor of the sky is hopeful."

When the two were about to come forward to meet.

Suddenly, in a carriage, an old lady was supported by two middle-aged women. Her hair was gray, but she was graceful and luxurious, and she looked like a rich grandmother surrounded by people.

She raised her eyes and looked at the Changning Guandu and the surging Anjiang River, and tears fell for a moment: "I remember the last time I went back to my natal family, I still kept the day of Zhe's marriage. This is another eighteen or nine years. I didn't expect that I would still be alive. I saw Grandma Longyan ascended to Heaven and Human Realm. I'm afraid this is the last time I have returned to my natal home."

"Three grandma." Gongsun Yan, the current patriarch of the Gongsun clan, is already a mature man in his 30s. He personally helped the old lady walk on the boat and said with a smile, "You are only eighty-two years old this year. The body is still tough. Last time, cousin Shouzhe didn't ask for a few eternal life pills from the academy, but also sent you one personally."

"You will have a lot of things going back to your family in the future. Your nephew Zong'an will be married in a few years. Your boss has to come back in person? Besides, Cousin Shouzhe said, let you wait for him to ascend to heaven."

When talking about Wang Shouzhe, the old lady smiled happily: "Shouzhe’s children are good, but I don’t know how to save. Brother Xiaohui and Xiaozhi are both so old..."

Another woman who is a little older but very well maintained also helped the old lady and said: "That is Shouzhe filial piety, he said, you are the fifth generation of the Wang family, and you are the only one in the fifth generation of Zhen. How much can he do? I’ll give my heart as much as I can. Shouzhe’s child has always sent people to give me various beauty products."

Upon seeing this, Liang Haofeng on the side knew who these two women were after just a little pondering.

One is Wang Zhenrong, who is the fifth generation of the Wang family, and the other is Wang Liuyu, who is the Liuzi generation. Although they were all directly married to the Gongsun clan ~www.readwn.com~, as the current Wang clan becomes stronger and stronger, their status within the Gongsun clan has also risen.

After all, Liang Haofeng is surviving with Wang's back, so there is no reason to not study Wang's genealogy? He immediately greeted him with a smile: "Haofeng has seen you all of the Gongsun clan."

If you should flatter, you still have to flatter, and look back to leave a good impression on Patriarch Shouzhe. After all, Patriarch Shouzhe, at first glance, is the kind of person who attaches great importance to the elders in the family.

While talking.

Suddenly!

A person on the river is flying across the river, and every time he falls, he will be a little bit above the river, just like a big Peng spreading his wings and soaring. In the surging river, his seemingly small body appeared so majestic.

"That's the ancestor Xiaohan..." Gongsun Qiang said sharp-eyed.

"How alarmed Brother Xiao Han came to pick it up." Wang Zhenrong was so relieved and sighed.
