Grandma and uncle were buried together, and their names were engraved on the stone tablet. They no longer had to be lonely ghosts.
The three brothers stood behind Ji Jie, and Mei Duo knelt in front of the stone tablet, with crystal tears falling down one by one.
"Your Majesty, what is going on?" Xiong Kui asked. The three people who were sleeping last night were notified and asked them to quickly find someone to engrave the monument. The three of them worked all night and finally transported the monument at dawn. The four of them worked together to erect it in front of the grave, but until now, the three brothers don't know what happened.
"I will tell you in detail when I have the opportunity in the future!" Ji Jie took a few steps forward, bent down and said to Mei Duo: "People cannot be resurrected after death, so please forgive me and accept the change! In any case, the great revenge has been avenged, and grandma and her own If my husband is buried together, they will live happily in heaven!"
Mei Duo nodded slightly and said, "Thank you, Brother Jie, you have done a lot for me and grandma!"
"Why are you saying these kind words?" Ji Jie put his hand on her shoulder and said, "I promised grandma to take good care of you, and I will do what I say! Duo'er, it's getting late, we should leave here!"
"Yeah!" Mei Duo wanted to stand up, but because she had been kneeling for too long, her legs were numb. As soon as she stood up, she felt that her legs were weak and her body was shaky.
Ji Jie quickly reached out to hold her in his arms and said softly: "Let's do this, I'll ask them to prepare a carriage..."
"No need, I can ride a horse!"
The five people set off on the road and headed straight to Bajun in the southeast. If it weren't for a day's delay, they would already be in Bajun at this moment.
The whole journey was silent, and when the moon was full and the stars were thin, we finally arrived at our destination, Qin’s ancestral home.
The Qin family was originally a famous businessman in the Ba Kingdom. After the Ba Kingdom returned to the Qin Dynasty, the Qin family's business grew bigger and bigger. Later, after merging the property of Qin Qing's dead husband, he became a wealthy businessman in the Qin Kingdom.
The ancestral home of the Qin family has a history of at least two hundred years. After several generations of continuous expansion, it has reached its current size. From a distance, it looks like a fortified city.
"Go in and announce that the envoy sent by the family master has arrived!" Xiong Ba shouted to the door.
"Okay!" Menzi trotted in to announce.
Qin Qing is the heir to the Qin family's foundation. In the past, in Ji Jie's eyes, she was a woman who could move the wind and rain. As long as it involved the Qin family's trading company, everyone had to listen to her. But after arriving at the Qin family's ancestral home, the situation changed. It becomes a little subtle.
In fact, Qin Qing mentioned this before setting off. The Qin family is a big family, and her status as the only direct descendant cannot be challenged. However, besides her, there are many people in the family who hold real power, and these people are basically her. An old guy from my uncle's generation, he doesn't like to go out and usually stays in Berkshire.
Old guys generally have two common problems: being conservative and pedantic. The Qin family members have not been able to break out of this vicious circle. Qin Qing also feels helpless about this, so under normal circumstances, she will never return unless there is something important. The ancestral home is out of sight!
Facts have proved that Qin Qing is right. If she had implemented the business strategy formulated by her uncles a few years ago, Qin's family would have been ranked number one in the Qin Kingdom, ranking first among the many wealthy merchants in the Seven Kingdoms. Not ranked.
It is precisely because of this that these disciples of Qin Qing's generation will follow her lead and implement the policy she set to the letter.
The person in charge of the Qin family's ancestral house is Qin Qing's second uncle, named Qin You. Among the old men, who is the most conservative? If he is the second most conservative, then everyone dares to be the first.
The reason why Qin Huan took the post of supervisor is very simple. Anyway, most of the business activities have been scattered across the seven countries. It is better to sit in the ancestral home. He does not seek merit but seeks no fault. It is suitable for a conservative person!
"Please come quickly. The warden and some elders of the family are waiting in the living room!" The doorman bowed to the five people and then led them inside.
The atmosphere in the living room was a bit solemn. Five old guys with white beards and hair were sitting inside. The one sitting on the main seat was Qin You, and the other four were the elders from the east, west, south and north.
In fact, the operation of Qin's trading company at this time had almost nothing to do with the five of them, and every family member knew it well.
However, as long as your affairs involve these five people, then just wait to be tortured. The five old guys have a very strong desire for power. Most of the time, they don't have anything to do with them. Once they do, it's called A "passion", something that can be easily handled in the first place, will make you very busy in the end, and the result may not be what you want. The most uncomfortable thing is that you are grateful to them and can't complain at all. , otherwise you will be cursed by the elders of the clan the next day, saying you are ignorant.
When King Qin Hui was just about to attack the Qin family, Qin Qing sent someone to send a letter asking Qin Huan to shrink his funds and prepare to transfer them at any time.
However, her suggestion was rejected by Qin Huan. Several old guys thought that King Qin would not do such a thing, and even if he did, he would not kill everyone. Moreover, they all blamed Qin Qing, blaming her for not developing steadily, which led to this. of disaster.
Just as Ji Jie explained his purpose of coming, the faces of the five old guys all turned ugly, and their expressions were almost carved out of the same mold.
"Seniors, the situation has really gotten serious!" Ji Jie said earnestly: "The people sent by King Qin set off almost at the same time as us. They will be here tomorrow night at the latest. If effective measures are not taken, If you do, you will have no choice but to be slaughtered by others!"
"Boy, who do you think you are? We don't need you to give us advice!" Qin Huan shouted. He was originally opposed to Qin Qing's plan. In addition, he had heard a lot of rumors these days, and he was feeling very angry and had nowhere to vent his anger. Ji Jie bumped into him, so it's strange that he had a good face.
"Old man, if you dare to talk to your Majesty like this, I will chop you with an axe..." Xiong Benhu roared, took off the giant ax on his back and was about to chop Qin Huan.
"Little San'er, don't be rude!" Ji Jie stopped him.
The five old men were very frightened. They all said that the older you get, the more you fear death. That’s right!
However, several people claimed that this was the ancestral home of the Qin family. Qin Huan and the other four people looked at each other and their tone was still strong: "The Qin family has been based in Ba County for hundreds of years. There is no way the whole family will move out! You go. Tell Qin Qing, if anything happens, ask her to come and tell me in person. If the competition sends some people who are shoddy and do not work well, is it possible that she has a capable person in her hands? "
Ji Jie is angry, grandma, if it weren’t for the sake of you seventy-year-olds, would I have talked to you in a humble manner? I wanted to save you. If I had known this, I would have gone directly to your Sifang Daku, Move all the things inside and leave you old fools to face King Qin's questioning. I don't believe King Qin can kindly let you go!
Yaya, let’s see!
"Then it's okay if I go inspect the warehouse?" Ji Jie asked, suppressing his anger.
