() In Qingniu Village, the owner of the village, Fang Qingniu, sternly summoned all the senior officials to gather together to discuss the difficulties faced by Qingniu Village and ways to solve them. The chief steward Fang Haoran walked in and whispered in his ear
He said a few words. After hearing this, Fang Qingniu's face changed. He couldn't tell whether he was worried or happy. Then, he explained a few words and asked everyone to continue the discussion. He quickly stood up and left the meeting hall. Suddenly
The sudden change caused all the high-level officials who were left behind to look at each other, wondering what had happened.
After Fang Qingniu left, many of the elders who stayed behind began to talk in the hall.
"The matter of hiring mercenaries has not been settled due to price issues. It seems that we can only rely on ourselves to transport the medicinal materials this time, and we cannot hire mercenaries to act as guards." An elder in Qingniu Village was worried.
typical.
"Heihu Village has injured dozens of our villagers in the past few days. Several villagers' houses have been burned down. If we don't stand up for them, the villagers will not follow us anymore.
"Another elder also said with an anxious look.
"I think the current plan is to negotiate a peace with Black Tiger Village and reach a cooperation between the two parties. We will both suffer losses and prosper in order to overcome this difficulty." Fang Shiheng, the chief steward, raised his voice.
As soon as he finished speaking, several senior executives immediately echoed loudly.
"Cooperating with Black Tiger Manor is inviting a wolf into the house and seeking skin from a tiger. You must not do this. The Chong family behind Black Tiger Manor and our Fang family are now sworn enemies in Ironwood Fort. How can we cooperate with the enemies of our Fang family?
"A majestic voice sounded. It was Fang Yuan, the great elder of the village, speaking.
Fang Yuan's views were also agreed by many elders and senior officials.
After a while, the senior management of Qingniu Village were basically divided into two factions. One faction, centered on the general housekeeper Fang Shiheng, advocated seeking peace with Black Tiger Village, making some concessions, and reaching cooperation to overcome the current predicament.
The other faction, with the Grand Elder Fang Yuan as the core, is opposed to compromise and cooperation with Black Tiger Village. As for what they advocate, it is not clear. Because in the current situation, no one can come up with a way to break the dilemma.
The two factions were equally powerful. In addition, the owner of the village, Fang Qingniu, did not know where he was and did not come out to express his position. Therefore, neither party could overwhelm the other, and the situation became a stalemate for a while. However, Zi Fang Hairong suddenly proposed a compromise and asked for peace.
After the plan, the split within the senior management of Qingniuzhuang has become very obvious.
After receiving the news from Fang Haoran, Fang Qingniu left Qingniu Village secretly and quickly headed to Lishui Town, ignoring the need to preside over the high-level meeting in the village.
Two hours later, in Qingfeng Manor, Fang Qingniu saw Fang Ping, who had been waiting for him for a long time. After learning that Fang Ping was injured by Fang Wei with a poisonous needle and moved into Qingfeng Manor, Fang Qingniu sent someone to come
He visited him twice and brought a lot of healing elixirs and tonics. Regarding the dispute between Fang Wei and Fang Ping, Fang Qingniu did not punish either party. In the current situation, he did not want to intensify the dispute because of this matter.
The internal conflicts in Qingniuzhuang.
After receiving the news from Lishui Town, Fang Qingniu immediately rode a fast horse and rushed over to see Fang Ping without stopping.
After the meeting, they sat down in the room. Before exchanging greetings, Fang Qingniu hurriedly asked, "Fang Ping, you said that the mercenary union has agreed to escort us to transport medicinal materials. Is this true?"
Fang Ping nodded, "This is absolutely true. Wait a minute and I will take you to see Xiao Tianxiong, the president of the mercenary union. I have already negotiated with him."
Fang Qingniu looked extremely shocked, "What method did you use to make him listen to you? I have been talking to them for more than twenty days, and they have been unwilling to let go."
Fang Ping said, "This is why I asked you, the owner of the village, to come here first. I promised President Xiao that when the matter is completed, I will give you a first-grade yellow-level elixir recipe as a reward. You don't know about this yet, so
You have to be prepared first."
The shock on Fang Qingniu's face became even stronger, and he said, "Fang Ping, how did you make President Xiao believe you? I won't ask. I know you did this for our Qingniu Village. But,
Even if my Qingniu Village is destroyed, I can't do anything that goes against chivalry."
Fang Ping couldn't help but laugh, "Master, do you think I made up this recipe to deceive President Xiao?"
Fang Qingniu said, "Isn't it right? Where can we find any elixirs in Qingniu Village? If there were elixirs, we wouldn't be in this situation today!"
Fang Ping had a relaxed smile on his face and said, "Danfang does exist, and there is no such thing as deception. Otherwise, even if we get through this difficulty, the mercenary union will not let us go afterwards. Among them,
Of course I know the pros and cons. I invite you to come to me first to explain this to you."
Fang Qingniu's face was full of shock, "How come you have a recipe for a first-grade yellow-level elixir?"
Fang Ping smiled and said, "This is my secret. Please don't ask about it, Master."
Fang Qingniu looked at Fang Ping with eyes that gradually became complicated, but he quickly returned to normal and said, "Then I won't ask any more questions. If we can get the support of the mercenary union, we have a good chance of winning this time.
If you survive this difficulty, you will be our number one hero in Qingniu Village. If you want any reward, just ask."
Fang Ping said, "Master, you are serious in your words. You have been so kind to my father and me. It is my duty to do my best to help Qingniu Village." Then Fang Ping took Fang Qingniu to visit him.
Xiao Tianxiong."
With the help of Fang Ping, Fang Qingniu met Xiao Tianxiong. This was a secret meeting. The news that Qingniu Village and the mercenary union had failed many times before had become the best smoke bomb. No one could have imagined that
, at the last moment, things suddenly changed qualitatively.
The mercenary union, based on the information they had about Black Crow Village, worked out a detailed plan with Qingniuzhuang. Its purpose was to take this opportunity to annihilate the evil-doing Black Crow Village in one fell swoop. The people of the mercenary union
, secretly hidden among the guards of Qingniu Village, catching Black Crow Village off guard.
After returning from Lishui Town, Fang Qingniu gained a lot of confidence. He suppressed Fang Shiheng's proposal to make concessions to Black Tiger Village, and at the same time sent a group of elite guards to strongly protect the medicinal farmers who were attached to Qingniu Village, and fought with
The Black Tiger Guards of Black Tiger Village fought a battle on the border between the two sides. Qingniu Village did not get any benefits in this battle, but at least it suppressed the aggressive momentum of Black Tiger Village and temporarily stabilized people's hearts.
Three days later, Fang Ping's injuries were no longer serious, and he returned to Qingniu Village with thirty poisonous arrows that sealed his throat with blood. The men sent by the mercenary union had already divided into several groups and quietly entered Qingniu Village during these three days.
Niuzhuang, dressed as a guard in Qingniuzhuang.
When Fang Ping returned home, Xuan Xuan and Liu Ruoshi were busy in the kitchen, preparing several exquisite pastries. They were both overjoyed to see Fang Ping come back safe and sound.
"Where's dad?" Fang Ping asked.
"He was practicing his sword in the woods nearby." Liu Ruoshi said.
Fang Ping walked to the small woods. In the woods, an elegant and agile figure was dancing with a sword. A sword about four feet long was danced into a ball of sword light. Fang Ping could only see the shining sword light.
But he couldn't clearly see the coming, going and changes of the sword's power. Even the changes in his father's body shape were difficult for him to see clearly.
As if sensing Fang Ping's arrival, the sword light in the forest dispersed, and Fang Wenjun's figure emerged from it, slowly walking towards Fang Ping's location.
Fang Wenjun was dressed in brocade clothes with fluttering sleeves. He was strolling in with a long sword in his hand. He was full of energy and extraordinary bearing, just like a handsome nobleman.
Fang Ping didn't know that his father used swords before. In his memory, his father never touched any other weapons except bows and arrows for hunting. And the look of hope and energy on his face now was something he had never seen before. Fang Ping had never seen anything like this before.
Wenjun, once he is in high spirits, he is indeed as his name suggests. He is a handsome young man who is free and elegant and has a calm demeanor.
