Chapter 102 The Wang Family Is Prosperous! Overlord of a County (Please Vote for Me)
…
As the genius of a fifth-grade family, there are not many people in the royal family who can admire him. Even the Dingxin ancestor whose family completed the transition of the Purple Mansion, Wang Guanghai felt that it was just like that. After all, he had a high probability of becoming the Zi Mansion in the future.
However, his fourth grandfather, Wang Shouzhe, shocked his young heart time and time again. From the initial admiration, to the later awe, until now, the royal family has the urge to bow down and worship.
Fourth Grandpa's quiet... way of doing things turned out to be so... domineering.
"Pah!" Wang Shouzhe pointed his finger casually, became furious, and gave him a chestnut through the air.
This kid has an expression all over his face that he needs to be beaten. He won't be able to survive without a beating.
"The fairy is staying with me, the Wang family, in Changning for a period of time." Wang Shouzhe explained with a serious expression, "Shi Hai, please don't think wildly. I have nothing to do with the fairy."
"Young Master Shouzhe." After Fairy Tianyan rolled her eyes at Wang Guanghai, she came to Shouzhe in a fairy-like manner and handed over a bowl of soup. "When Sister Shicai entertained her mother clan, she still did not forget to give her concubine to the Young Master. I’ve made some nourishing soup, sir, drink it while it’s hot.”
"Fairy is a distinguished guest, such trivial matters..."
"This is my sister's request. I don't dare to protect you, but I can't leave even a drop behind~"
"Okay." Wang Shouzhe lowered his head and drank the Shiquan Nourishing Soup invented by Liu Ruolan in one gulp, his face turned bitter!
The faces of the royal family on the side were all stiff. Fourth Grandpa, is this what you said? It doesn't matter? Okay, okay, you really know how to play. My grandson won't disturb you, so I'll take my leave.
…
in the coming days.
As major aristocratic families continued to come to Ping'an Town, Wang naturally entertained them one by one according to etiquette and made careful arrangements. Wang Shouzhe would take the time to meet every representative of a seventh-grade family as a courtesy.
Every household also followed the etiquette and gave generous gifts.
Fortunately, the Wang family today is no longer what it used to be. There are a lot of people in the clan, and there are plenty of generals and servants, so it is easy to turn around.
In Longzuo County, the Longzuo Qian family, the Longzuo Wang family, and the Longzuo Yuwen family are the most generous. The long list of gifts for each household adds up to no less than a million gold. Among them, the Qian family The total value of the gifts reached two million gold.
And they all know that Wang's favorite raw materials are some, such as crude iron, refined copper, spiritual wood, etc., so these basic materials occupy the bulk.
It can be seen that these well-connected aristocratic families are still very considerate.
In addition, Wang's clan members who were in the academy or stationed abroad also returned to the family one after another. Not only is it a matter of participating in a grand event that is rare in the family for a century, but it is also a matter of replenishing the family's manpower.
Except for running away to Hanyue Immortal Dynasty early, there has been no news about Miss Wang Lizi so far. The rest of the Wang clan, even those who got married, were all absent.
Wang's main residence.
[Liyaoju] is located on the shore of Zhuwei Lake. This exquisite small courtyard has a superior location and elegant environment.
Every corner of this courtyard is designed by Wang Shouzhe.
Although the courtyard looks classic, its internal structure is very exquisite. It has complete facilities such as a talisman energy lighting system and a water supply and drainage system. Even the beds and some tables and chairs are all made of water-based spiritual wood, and the craftsmanship is exquisite and they are masterpieces.
In particular, some of the plants and flowers inside are premium species carefully selected and cultivated by Wang Shouzhe.
Wang Shouzhe has always been extremely doting on the eldest queen Li Yao. Since Wang Liyao went to Zifu Academy at the age of nineteen, Wang Shouzhe has personally renovated his daughter's yard, even though she only lives at home for ten days every year during the Chinese New Year.
Today, [Liyao Residence], the main residence of the Wang family, is a place that all guests dream of entering. It is already a huge honor to meet the great genius Wang Liyao. If I can have some relationship with her and leave a good impression, it will be worth returning the ticket.
Therefore, many seventh-grade families have already made preparations. On this trip, they all brought girls from the younger generation of their families with extremely outstanding looks and qualifications, and prepared generous gifts to see Wang Liyao as if they were asking for advice. Then she licked her in all kinds of shameless ways, trying to be a maid or something like that...
At the beginning.
For the sake of politeness, Wang Liyao took the time to meet him.
But as the number of invitations increased, those girls from aristocratic families became more and more shameless in their licking. Even Wang Liyao's good temper is a little tiresome.
at this time.
Li Yao lives outside.
A woman with a clear appearance wearing a long aqua dress was standing at the door of Li Yao's residence, holding a sword. Her eyes were clear and cold, overlooking the group of carefully dressed young girls at the door. A trace of disdain flashed across her eyes, and she whispered softly: "I said that I will control the same level of cultivation. If anyone can If you catch my three swords, Mo Zhuanqiu, you will be qualified to see Miss Li Yao."
This woman in an aqua-blue dress is none other than Mo Juanqiu, a disciple of Master Xuanyao from the Zifu Academy in Longzuo. She was born in the Mo family in Monan. She originally wanted to follow Miss Li Yao, but she never thought she was not even qualified. No.
Later, the family planned to buy a Wuji elixir for her, but was intercepted by Wang Shouzhe.
Fortunately, in order to support her, her family spent a lot of money to purchase a Wuji elixir, which finally helped her become a genius. Afterwards, Mo Chuanqiu spent several years on the strategy, before finally impressing Wang Liyao and taking her under his command.
She, Mo Juanqiu, is a proud person, so it is not easy for her.
Among this group of girls, most of whom have not even reached the middle-grade qualifications, only a few can barely qualify as middle-grade D and C grades!
That's it?
Are you actually trying to make a chicken fly up a branch and become a phoenix?
The maid of a great genius is not something that ordinary people can be.
"Mo Suanqiu, we are asking to see Miss Li Yao, what does it have to do with you?"
"Fairy Zhuanqiu, please let me see Miss Li Yao."
"Mo Quanqiu, don't be arrogant and take the sword!"
There were voices pleading and yelling one after another, but Mo Juanqiu remained as firm as a mountain and killed all the ladies from aristocratic families who tried to pass the challenge one by one.
Even if she suppresses her cultivation, no one can block her three swords.
All the girls looked at each other in awe. Mo Juanqiu, the genius of the Academy, was so terrifying~~ Is this the strength of a follower? So, how powerful is the legendary Li Yao genius?
Wang Liyao's side is just the tip of the iceberg.
During this period of time, countless young ladies from aristocratic families entered the Wang family's main residence under various pretexts, creating chance encounters and encounters at every turn to see if they could hook up with a certain handsome young man from the Wang family.
Unfortunately.
The younger generation of the Wang family has become more and more ambitious and arrogant.
Many wealthy ladies inevitably arrive in high spirits and return with gloomy expressions.
…
Time flew by.
Before you knew it, the day came when Wang held a banquet for two heavenly beings and a promotion ceremony.
Early this morning, the area near Dingpu Ferry was already crowded with small and medium-sized families who came to watch the excitement.
Because there were so many people watching the excitement, there was simply not enough space to stand at the ferry. At this moment, even the water dragon formations on both sides of the ferry were full of people.
The crowd was so crowded that there was almost no place to stay.
Wu Bangzuo was only a little late and was blocked from the ferry by the crowded crowd. He couldn't help but feel annoyed. If he had known earlier, he would have said less to his ancestor just now.
Just when he was feeling annoyed, a message suddenly came from the direction of the ferry: "Brother Wu Shi, here~ here~ I have specially occupied a place for you, come here quickly!"
He followed the sound and saw at a glance his good brother who came from Yingxiu with him, Lu Wenhong, the direct descendant of the Yingxiu Lu family. There were two or three generals surrounding him, leaving a little space in the middle, enough for one person to stand.
Wu Bangzuo was overjoyed, and his body immediately rose into the air, took a few steps in the void, and then fell lightly into the gap.
Qi training monks can only glide in mid-air. They can stay in the air continuously like this and create an effect similar to stepping in the air. Only Xuanwu monks at the Lingtai level and above can do it.
The surrounding Xuanwu monks immediately cast awe-inspiring looks at Wu Bangzuo. The few Xuanwu monks who were close took the initiative to move around, trying their best to make more space for him.
Wu Bangzuo nodded to them and thanked them, then raised his hand to Lu Wenhong and thanked him: "Brother Lu, you still have the foresight. Thank you so much for today~ It would be a pity to miss something as memorable as today."
"Hey~ Brothers, why are you talking about this?" Lu Wenhong waved his hand indifferently.
Lu Wenhong was a little genius carefully cultivated by the Yingxiu Lu family. Now Lu Xiaoxiao, the ancestor of the Lu family, is his biological aunt.
Since the death of Mr. Lu Zhengxiong and Mrs. Wang Liuling of the Yingxiu Lu family a few years ago, the marriage between the direct lineage of the Yingxiu Lu family and the Changning Wang family has faded. Only the direct lineage still maintains the marriage.
Fortunately, Lu Xiaoxiao, the ancestor of the Yingxiu Lu family, is the direct cousin of Wang Shouzhe, the head of the Wang family in Changning. In addition, the Lu family also has a stake in Shouda Trading Company, so the relationship between the two families is still very close. close.
Lu Wenhong is only sixty years old this year, but he has already reached the fourth level of Lingtai Realm. His cultivation speed can barely reach the middle range even among the young geniuses. At this rate, he is expected to be promoted to the Heavenly Realm before he is one hundred and fifty years old.
This is why the Yingxiu Lu family has abundant financial resources now, so that they can support him to practice like this. Fifty years ago, even if he had the talent to be a genius, he would most likely have to be sent to an academy because his family could not afford to support him.
In comparison, although Wu Bangzuo is also a talented young man, his cultivation speed is slower than Lu Wenhong.
Now sixty-five years old, his cultivation level is only at the peak of the third level of Lingtai Realm. He still needs to polish it for half a year before he can advance to the fourth level.
There is no way, Yingxiu Wu's family background is too thin and cannot afford him to practice at full speed.
This is because his biological sister Wu Lingyun married into the Wang family of Changning. The Wu family's influence in Yingxiu has increased over the years, and their money bag has become richer and richer. Otherwise, he might not be able to maintain such a cultivation speed.
Fortunately, his brother-in-law Wang Zongyao is a genius of the Wang family. At only sixty-nine years old, he is already a well-known weapon refiner. His cultivation has reached the eighth level of the Lingtai realm, and he has a bright future. The good days of Yingxiu Wu are still to come.
It was also because they were both in-laws of the Wang family, both were young geniuses, and they were both in Yingxiu, that Lu Wenhong and Wu Bangzuo gradually became familiar with each other and became friends.
Today, on the occasion of the official promotion of the Changning Wang family to the sixth-grade family, the two of them had naturally made an appointment early in the morning to come over and watch the fun together.
While they were talking, the crowd suddenly quickly separated to both sides, and the people from the Changning Wang family finally arrived.
The one who came was Wang Guangzhao, the eldest son of Wang Zongan, the young patriarch of the Wang family in Changning.
He was wearing a green robe today, his face was like a crown jewel, and he had an extraordinary bearing. He was followed by a group of Wang clan members and generals, and the scene was quite grand.
The aristocratic family changed its lintel and emphasized "three welcomes and three invitations".
This first greeting is at the ferry, usually by the direct descendants of the family. The second greeting was at the three-mile pavilion outside the ferry, and the younger generation also came forward. The third greeting is at the door of the family, where the clan leader personally comes to receive the plaque.
This is also the inherent process of changing the lintel of aristocratic families, in order to show that the family attaches great importance to this.
When the Wang family in Changning was promoted to the seventh-grade family, only a small number of people were born. Wang Liyao and Wang Zongan, the oldest of the direct descendants, were only in their teens. Together with Wang Shouzhe, they were only two generations apart. Please." Although Wei Wenxun had no objection to this, it was really embarrassing to say it.
Nowadays, as the number of people in the Wang clan increases, these "three welcomes and three invitations" gifts can finally be gathered together.
Lu Wenhong and Wu Bangzuo saw Wang Wangzhao and hurriedly greeted him.
Although Wang Guangzhao is only in his forties this year and is one generation lower than the two of them, he is a talented person. He is now at the fifth level of the Lingtai Realm, and his cultivation level is even higher than the two of them. The two of them were naturally very polite to him.
In accordance with the etiquette of the aristocratic family, Zhaoye, the royal family, politely met the two of them with the courtesy of juniors. He behaved calmly and gracefully, which was a bit like Wang Shouzhe's style back then.
While he was talking, suddenly, someone near the ferry started shouting.
"It's coming~ It's coming!"
"The Sheriff's ship is here!"
Everyone followed the sound and saw an official ship on the Anjiang River approaching with the emblem of the County Sheriff's Mansion painted on its body, and slowly docked amidst the attention of everyone.
In the midst of everyone's attention, a crisp gong sound suddenly sounded.
Immediately afterwards, a shout as loud as a bell came from the ship: "Longzuo County Sheriff's Mansion, Deputy Commander-in-Chief Wei Wenxun, on the order of the Sheriff, escorted the 'Sixth Rank Family Plaque' to the Wang Family in Changning, Xianzaren Please retreat."
After three consecutive shouts, the official ship had completely stopped.
A group of soldiers wearing the county guard's standard armor filed off the boat, followed closely by four "idler's retreat cards".
This is the ceremonial guard of the county governor's office. It is nominally given by the emperor of Daqian State and awarded to the local county governor, which is a sign that he is allowed to act on behalf of the emperor.
Behind the four "idler retreat signs" is a huge plaque covered with red cloth and carried by four strong men.
This is the "Sixth Rank Family Plaque" of the Changning Wang Family.
Later, there was Wei Wenxun, who had been promoted to the deputy commander-in-chief of the Longzuo County Sheriff's Office.
This scene can be said to be a rare and grand scene in Longzuo County.
In the past thirty years, the only thing comparable to this was the completion ceremony personally hosted by the county governor Taishi Ankang when the Qingluo Acropolis was officially completed more than twenty years ago.
Upon seeing this, Wang Guanghui hurriedly led the Wang clan to greet him. He paid homage to Wei Wenxun in accordance with the etiquette rules and expressed his gratitude to the governor's mansion and his gratitude to the emperor of Daqian Kingdom. This was called "a welcome".
After this process was completed, it was time for the "Second Welcome" at the "Sanliting" where Wang Zongan came forward and led more tribesmen.
After that, there were the "three invitations" personally presented by Wang Shouzhe at the door of the Wang family and by the Zhuwei Lake.
After "three welcomes and three invitations", the Wang clan came forward to hang the plaque on the archway.
As early as a month ago, the new archway under the supervision of the County Sheriff's Office had been completed.
This newly built archway is more than four feet high and is carved entirely from blue-white boulders. The four towering columns are carved with exquisite patterns of black birds and flying fish, making it look very majestic.
This bluish-white stone is called "white vein stone", which is an associated mineral of the Lingshi mine. The material is very strong and has a certain effect of isolating and blocking spiritual energy. It is a good formation base material. Because of the sufficient materials, qualified families can use their formation base to directly set up a large formation to protect the house.
At this moment, the plaque covered with big red cloth is hung high on the archway, looking indescribably joyful.
After that, Wang Shouzhe personally came forward and invited Longyan Ancestor to unveil the plaque.
In fact, according to the usual practice, the step of unveiling the plaque is done by the clan leader, but Wang Shouzhe was grateful for the sacrifices made by the Longyan ancestor for the survival of the family, and insisted on asking the Longyan ancestor to come forward to unveil the plaque. Wang Longyan originally wanted to refuse, but she couldn't persuade Wang Shouzhe, so she had to agree in the end.
As Longyan ancestor pulled it with his bare hands, the bright red cloth fell lightly, and the Changning Wang family was officially promoted to the "Sixth Rank Family".
Speaking of which, this plaque was written by Ankang, the governor of Longzuo County, which gave Wang Shouzhe enough face.
This scene was personally written in the "Wang Family Inheritance Minutes" by Wang Xiaohan, the elder of the Wang family. Along with it, written into the inheritance minutes, there is also a scene restoration picture drawn by descendants based on their memories.
It was also from this day that the Changning Wang family's reputation in Longzuo County experienced a surge.
Until a few months later, people in Longzuo County would still mention this incident from time to time in their chats and talk about it with great interest.
In fact, the Changning Wang family has really done a lot of big things in recent years, whether it is the development of Qingluowei, the construction of a seafood breeding base, or the full rollout of the flying chariot system in Qing'an County and Longzuo County, as well as a series of related projects With the gradual improvement of the industrial chain, any one thing is an amazing initiative.
But ordinary people don't actually understand its profound significance.
They are busy running for life every day, and they neither understand the significance of developing Qingluowei nor the role of building a seafood breeding base, because these things are too far away from them, and many of them don’t even know what’s behind Shouda Trading Company. Who is the owner?
What they most intuitively and deeply felt was the grand scene when the Changning Wang family was promoted to the sixth rank family, as well as the scene of the county governor personally writing the inscription, and the deputy commander-in-chief Wei Wenxun personally escorting him.
It was only at this point that the Changning Wang Family came into the sight of many people in the county, allowing them to truly understand the energy represented by the words "Changning Wang Family".
…
after a while.
Wang's inner residence in Changning, Wang Shouzhe's study.
Wang Shouzhe was lying comfortably on the recliner, drinking fairy tea, and watching the twin-tailed weapon spirit Xiaoxue reporting on the current situation.

…
"Xiaoxue, check the details of the clan members and project the family tree." Wang Shouzhe sipped the tea with satisfaction. The family had multiplied to such an extent that even he could hardly keep all the clan members.
"Yes, Master. It has been projected into the easter egg chapter at the end of the third chapter, forming a new projected picture of the Longzuo Wang family tree~" Xiaoxue replied cutely.
"Call me Patriarch..." Wang Shouzhe gave her a meaningful look, saying that he didn't cause any trouble just because of this title.
"Yes, Master." Xiaoxue smiled beautifully.
…
