Chapter 2 Liu's desperate situation, replacement of industries
The Liu family is one of the vassal families of the Ning family, a huge cultivation family.
Liu Ying is the second lady of the Liu family. Since the eldest lady of the Liu family died, she has been recalled from the place where she was originally practicing hard and began to take over the family, responsible for handling everything in the Liu family.
Liu Ying had already planned the development of the Liu family in the next few years, but just today, she suddenly received a bolt from the blue.
The entire Liu family was suddenly assigned to Ning Feng, the seventh son of the Ning family by the Ning family's Presbyterian Church. Also, the meteorite iron ore vein that originally belonged to Ning Hao, the second son of the Ning family, was located hundreds of kilometers away.
Since Liu Ying's elder sister died, the Liu family has been on a downward trend and has now become one of the weakest vassal families.
The entire Liu family now has not many people left, and now they are regarded as abandoned sons and are assigned to Ning Feng, the seventh young master of the Ning family.
In exchange, Ning Feng's brothers finally got their wish and divided up all other industries in Ning Feng's Ning family.
This transaction is said to be a fair replacement, but anyone knows who made the profit of this transaction.
Moreover, after replacing the industry, Ning Feng had to set out to take over the mine vein that was not shit hundreds of kilometers away. Since the Liu family has been placed under Ning Feng's command, it must naturally follow him.
That mine vein can indeed make a lot of money every year, but I heard that a rebellion suddenly began to begin.
The Zhang family, the vassal who was originally responsible for managing the mine vein, was turned against by the Ning family's rival, and is now fighting with the Ning family's left-behind troops.
Let’s not talk about whether this industry can make money. The current situation is that it is a question whether this mine can be kept or not!
If the Liu family followed Ning Feng, would there be a way out?
After receiving the news, Liu Ying took a deep breath.
What kind of person Ning Feng is in the Ning family? She has heard a lot of people over the past year.
He has a low cultivation level and is idle all day long. He often lingers in places like casinos and brothels. He never practices, and even the Presbyterian Church and the Head of Ning family warned him many times, but he ignored him.
A few days ago, I passed by the lake and saw him from afar. I was sitting in a magistrate chair, looking at the lake motionlessly like an old man in a twilight age.
It is indeed somewhat different from the second generation ancestor in my impression, but it is not bad. It seems that he is not a person who loves to be in charge of business.
If there was no such rebellion, as long as he helped him manage the meteorite iron ore veins, then the Liu family would have a chance to rise again.
But that mineral vein... is still in a rebellion. Judging from the Ning family's appearance, I don't know that it will not be pacified until the year of the Monkey and Horse.
Liu Ying has really tried her best to manage the Liu family like this. If she follows such a young master, what else can she have a good future?
But what's the solution?
Now the Liu family is like a small boat swaying in the storm. If they lose the protection of the Ning family, they may be able to kick it over with just one cat or a dog.
Admit your fate...
Liu Ying looked up at the sky and said that she had no choice.
...
Ning Feng arrived at Qiuyuan early today.
It was late spring now. The afternoon sun shone on the strong wine on the table, sandalwood rose slowly, and the light shone through the smoke and dust in the sky, outlining a hot and long afternoon.
The girl from the piano opposite was wearing a long blue dress and covered her face with a thin gauze. She was playing an unknown little song.
The sound of the pipa lingers in the private room in the attic of Qiuyuan, and the graceful figure of the Qin Girl is like a long and quiet dream that you don’t want to wake up, sleeping in the world for a lifetime.
Ning Feng had never seen the true face of this zither girl. He often came here because the sound of the zither girl's pipa could relax his long-term tense nerves.
A person who knows that he will not live for a few years will only have this kind of pursuit left.
It's better to listen to the music quietly.
Ning Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, listening to the sound of the pipa of the zither girl opposite him, while feeling the changes in his body with his heart.
At this moment, Ning Feng had almost pressed the meridians in his body to the extreme, but no matter how hard he tried, he would always have a trace of spiritual energy from heaven and earth that would flow into his meridians.
Because of the long-term suppression of meridians, Ning Feng's arms had a trace of inconspicuous crimson red. The blessing of the heavenly tribulation, although Ning Feng's cultivation is now low, his body is extremely healthy and he has sufficient qi and blood, and he is almost able to catch up with some physical cultivation.
Even his mental power has been greatly improved after this year of hardening.
At this moment, a tall and thin middle-aged man walked up from the other side of the private room in Qiuyuan.
"Young Master Seven, I finally found you."
"how?"
Ning Feng glanced at the tall and thin middle-aged man in front of him. He recognized this person as the butler of his second brother Ning Hao.
"Master Seven, the head of the family doesn't want to see you, so he asked me to sign this contract." Ning Hao's housekeeper pulled out a contract from his sleeve, as if he was talking about an inadvertent little thing.
Although the middle-aged butler called Ning Feng the Seventh Master on the surface, he didn't even mean anything respectful at all when he looked at his expression.
Ning Xianyu's reputation is well known to everyone in the Ning family.
"contract?"
Ning Feng naturally would not take the attitude of these servants to heart, but after receiving the contract, a trace of doubt flashed through Ning Feng's heart.
"Use meteorite veins to replace all my industries?"
When he saw this, a slight shimmering light flashed in Ning Feng's eyes.
No matter what I say, I am the legitimate son of the Ning family. It is impossible to directly take back the property. No wonder Ning Hao thought of this.
But on the surface, Ning Feng still made a profit.
The meteorite vein originally belonged to Ning Hao, and its annual profit was quite large. Moreover, in the contract, Ning Feng's second brother Ning Hao, Ning Family Presbyterian Church, and Ning's father had signed it.
This meaning is self-evident - you have to change it, and you have to change it if you don’t change it. If you want to sign it symbolically, it’s just to give you a face.
After shaking his head gently, Ning Feng's drunkenness finally dissipated a little, and at the same time he also recalled some things in his previous life.
It seems that this meteorite iron ore vein has had a large-scale rebellion in my memory. And counting the time, it is roughly now?
"Well, no problem, thank me for my second brother..."
After a moment, Ning Feng muttered, as if he was drunk and he was even more drunk. Then he carried the pen and signed the contract letter with a crooked pen.
"Young Master..."
Ning Shisan, who was standing beside him, couldn't help but speak, but as soon as he spoke, Ning Feng gave him a wink and told him not to speak.
After signing the letter, Ning Hao's housekeeper also left a secret for Ning Feng, as if he was worried that he had forgotten what he had done before after sobering up. He also reminded Ning Feng by the way that after changing the property, he remembered to move out of the attic courtyard as soon as possible.
In short, after talking a little, the butler finally left with satisfaction.
It is a very pleasing thing for the Tening family to dare to leave this borer.
As for the profits of the western meteorite veins?
Oh, this borer, let's talk about it if you have the life to live.
...
"Young Master...that mineral vein...is now causing a rebellion. Don't you know?"
At this moment, Ning Shisan was making a bitter face next to him. Looking at that look, he seemed to feel that his young master was bullied, but he was helpless and almost cried.
Ning Feng didn't say anything, but just stood up slowly, sneered, and then threw a reward at the girl Qin in front of him.
I know.
How could I not know?
But I can't tell you now... there are still spirit stone veins buried deep underground in that meteorite vein, right?
I can't tell you that there is a secret realm in the spirit stone ore vein. In my previous life, I gained the talent of cheating people in that secret realm, right?
Although the Ning family's Presbyterian Church did not directly tell Ning Feng about some things, he had long guessed the whole story in his heart.
The rebellion of the vassal family was not a big deal, but at this time the Ning family devoted all their energy to other important places. Moreover, others also mastered the core technology of the Ning family's meteorite refining!
Meteorite ore refining is one of the important foundations of the Ning family. If you directly turn against the vassal family, the Ning family's meteorite refining technology that has been passed down for hundreds of years will probably be sold to the Ning family's opponents?
The reason why Ning's father promised to send an abandoned son like Ning Feng at this time was just to test the other party's attitude first and see if there is room for recovery.
If the other party is willing to take some benefits and settle the situation, it is naturally the best.
Anyway, the iron ore veins in the meteorite have been assigned to Ning Feng's salted fish, and the loss is not his money.
After all, the Ning family is on the verge of storm now. Although it is not a place where enemies are surrounded by enemies, there are still a lot of enemies.
Behind this incident, there is obviously an opponent of the Ning family playing a role, otherwise, the Zhang family, who is responsible for managing the mine veins, would dare to rebel at this time?
As for Ning Hao, who exchanged territory with Ning Feng, he not only got rid of the trouble of the mine veins, but also made a lot of money back, and then he divided some benefits to several other brothers who had worked hard.
It’s like making profits and making connections, which is so cool!
At this time, of course, you still have to do a job to save face.
So as Ning Feng's brother, Ning Hao, out of humanitarian concern, decided to send some escorts to accompany Ning Feng to help him quell the rebellion in his territory.
Then Ning Feng looked at the guards. Isn’t it just a group of five scumbags? It’s just a burden. Ning Hao wants to help him save money?
However, after thinking about it, Ning Feng still took over the elderly, weak, sick and disabled people.
When no one is available, you will be hungry and eat.
It's so miserable. The first genius in the continent and the number one holy son of the human race in his previous life, he has now reached such a down-and-out state.
What a fuck!
I really want to build a Taoist platform immediately and then kill you!
But if you think about it, you will have to wait for three seconds, and your life is important.
Once you turn on the show-off mode, you will be struck by lightning!
...
Everyone pushed the wall down. At this moment, no one in the entire Ning family except Thirteen had regarded Ning Feng as his legitimate son.
