After Zhou Luo and Zhou Luo left, Zhou Feng finally couldn't help laughing. Zhou Jun blushed and cursed with a smile: "What's so funny!"
"Hehe! Brother Jun, tell me how lucky you are! She is one of the four beauties, and her father still wants to marry his daughter to you! Haha!"
Facing Zhou Feng's smile, Zhou Jun was helpless: "Brother, what do you think about this?"
Zhou Li was also smiling at this time. Hearing Zhou Jun's question, he suppressed the smile on his face and said lightly: "This is a good thing. As the head of the Zhou family, it is naturally impossible not to get married. Moreover, Miss Chen Lan's appearance is also
It's passable, what else do you have to be dissatisfied with."
Zhou Jun shook his head. If he hadn't promised Lin Miaoyu a long time ago, it wouldn't matter if he married Chen Lan now. If he married Chen Lan now, what would Lin Miaoyu do?
Seeing that Zhou Jun had a troubled expression, Zhou Li asked, "Does Brother Jun have his heart set on something?"
Zhou Jun nodded wordlessly.
"Brother Jun, you understand. Although people like us are beautiful on the surface, many things cannot be controlled by ourselves. If you marry Chen Lan, then our plan will have a much greater chance of success. If you insist not
If you want to marry someone, then you have to be prepared to bear the consequences if your plan fails."
Zhou Jun nodded: "Brother, I understand."
"Originally you were indifferent, but now that you are the head of the Zhou family, any decision is related to the life and death of the entire Zhou family. Which is more important is your own consideration!" Zhou Li said calmly, and then walked out silently.
"Brother, if you take action, won't everything be solved?" Zhou Jun said.
Zhou Li did not look back, but said calmly: "I have said before that there are many things that I cannot decide by myself, and this is one of them."
"Is this really the case?" Zhou Jun lowered his head and muttered to himself, his voice revealing infinite loneliness. He thought of the inferior spiritual jade his mother gave him, which was now being carried by Lin Miaoyu.
Zhou Feng came over and patted Zhou Jun on the shoulder: "Brother Jun, I don't understand what the elder brother means. But, I understand one thing. That is, life only lasts for a few decades, so why bother to care too much, as you
What you want to do! Whatever the consequences are, Brother Qi, I will bear them with you."
Looking up, Zhou Jun saw the sincerity in Zhou Feng's eyes, which was something called brotherhood.
"Brother Seven, I understand," Zhou Jun said, "Tell Third Uncle that I can marry Chen Lan, but she can only be a concubine. If the head of the Chen family does not agree, let this matter be over!"
"I understand!" Zhou Feng nodded.
Miaoyu, I, Zhou Jun, will never let you down in this life! Zhou Jun clenched his fists.
…
Many things are always unexpected. Zhou Jun said that Chen Lan could only be a concubine. He thought that the Chen family would not agree to it, but unexpectedly, the Chen family really agreed. The marriage was arranged immediately.
The day will be two months later.
When Zhou Luo informed the Chen family of his plan to annex and start a family, he immediately agreed and would fully help. This made Zhou Jun see the sincerity of the Chen family. Since he agreed, he would be tied to the same boat as the Zhou family.
.
In the Zhou family meeting hall, Zhou Jun said: "Third uncle, have all the invitations been sent out?"
"Yes, as long as the families of those who possess the second level of martial arts cultivation in Qingping Mansion are all sent out, no one will be left out."
"Have you started a family?" Zhou Jun asked.
"I sent it, but I would like to ask you why you also sent invitations to the married family?" Zhou Luo asked doubtfully.
With a curl of his lips, Zhou Jun said with a confident smile: "At this time, Chengjia will naturally not dare to come. And our banquet for the families in Qingping Mansion cannot be hidden from Chengjia's eyes and ears. But if even Chengjia becomes famous, Chengjia will not
I doubt what our purpose is."
"High!" Zhou Feng gave Zhou Jun a thumbs up...
Zhou Luo said: "Then I'll get ready right away. The banquet will start tonight."
"Third uncle, remember, you don't have to welcome all the families who come in the evening warmly, but instead deliberately give them a cold welcome," Zhou Jun said.
The purpose of this is to give everyone an illusion, that is, to make them feel that it is not the Zhou family negotiating with them, but the Zhou family giving them benefits. Without the Zhou family, they would naturally not be able to annex and form a family.
In the evening, in front of the Zhou Mansion.
"Master Chen, you're here so early! Come on, please come inside."
Tonight, the head of the Chen family was the first to arrive, and Zhou Luo stepped forward to greet him. Now that the Chen family is his ally, Zhou Luo naturally came out to greet him in person.'
"Haha!" The head of the Chen family still had the same smile on his face: "Have the other families arrived?"
Zhou Luo said: "Not yet, but this plan depends a lot on the Chen family."
"That's right, we are a family now."
With that said, Zhou Luo and the head of the Chen family entered together.
Within half an hour, an extremely luxurious carriage stopped in front of the Zhou Mansion, but the guard guarding the door did not go up to greet it, and the slight smile on his face disappeared in an instant.
A young man in his thirties got out of the car. He looked at the cold-faced guard with confusion on his face. Is this a banquet?
"Where's the invitation?" The young man was about to enter the house, and the guard at the door said stiffly.
Suddenly, the young man's face turned ugly, but thinking that this was the Zhou family, he suppressed his anger and took out the invitation.
"Get in!"
The two guards inspected it and then said coldly. The young man took a deep breath and suppressed his anger before entering the Zhou Mansion.
Afterwards, many families came one after another, but the treatment they received at the door was almost the same. This made these people feel dissatisfied even before entering the Zhou Mansion.
After everyone arrived, Zhou Jun walked in slowly and took the main seat.
"I've met Master Zhou!" everyone said in unison.
Zhou Jun stood up and said with a faint smile: "Everyone is polite!"
"Today Zhou invites you all to come. Actually, I have a great good thing for you." Zhou Jun said calmly.
Everyone looked at each other, and then one of the middle-aged men who seemed to be a little more powerful stood up, clasped his fists at Zhou Jun, and said, "May I ask the head of the Zhou family, what is this great good thing?"
"Haha!" Zhou Jun said: "You have worked hard for half your life and finally have a foothold in Qingping Mansion, but can you just stay here?"
Seeing that everyone was puzzled, Zhou Jun pointed to a piece of pastry on the table and said calmly: "This is a piece of pastry, of which my Zhou family ate one-third, and you all only shared one-third, and there is also a piece of cake for the married family."
One-third of."
Everyone immediately understood that Zhou Jun was alluding to pastry chef Qing Pingfu, but they still didn't understand what Zhou Jun wanted to express.
"I would like to ask you, don't you want to cut the pastry in half together?" Zhou Jun said as he cut the pastry in half.
The middle-aged man stood up and said solemnly: "What Master Zhou means is..."
"That's right! I want to tell you that my Zhou family is about to start a war against the Cheng family, and I would like to invite you to share the cake of the family together."
There was an uproar below, they whispered to each other and began to discuss.
Zhou Jun watched their discussion with a smile. When the sound stopped, he continued to ask: "What do you mean?"
"How can we believe that your Zhou family is not using us as swordsmen to monopolize the profits of the entire Qingping Mansion when we are so exhausted from fighting with the Cheng family?" The next person stood up and said.
Zhou Jun raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "That's right, you can't believe me. But everyone should understand one thing. Our Zhou family and Cheng family are equally powerful. If we start a war rashly, both sides will definitely lose in the end. I'm definitely afraid.
You will all gather together to attack when the time comes, so I am ready to share this piece of cake with you all.”….
"We can't believe you if you say nothing." At this time, the head of the Chen family stood up and said at the right time.
Zhou Jun continued: "Actually, you don't know that a few days ago, Cheng Jia's masters went out to ambush my father. In the end, my father was seriously injured, but they also killed all the Cheng Jia masters. Therefore, now is the time when Cheng Jia is at his weakest. And I
The purpose of the Zhou family is mainly to avenge my father."
After a pause, Zhou Jun continued: "I, Zhou Jun, promise in the name of the Zhou family that my Zhou family will only have one-third of the profit from this merger."
There was a moment of silence, and Zhou Jun knew it was time to vote.
"Now, the people who helped my Zhou family to form a family are all friends, and we all share the wealth. But those family heads who are unwilling to help the Zhou family and have promised not to help start a family can leave."
After Zhou Jun finished speaking, the head of the Chen family knew that it was time for him to show off. He had questioned Zhou Jun just now, so his words might be more convincing now.
"My Chen family has decided to annex and start a family together with the Zhou family!"
"Thank you, Master Chen, for your support." Zhou Jun said with a smile, as long as one person expresses his position, the rest will be easy to handle.
"My Lin family has decided to join the Zhou family!"
"My Zhang family has decided to join with the Zhou family!"
…
One after another, a total of more than 20 families decided to support the Zhou family. The remaining 20 or so families, after thinking for a moment, waved their sleeves and left.
After all the unwilling families had retreated, Zhou Jun stood up, clasped his fists to everyone and said, "Thank you for your support. Those people will know what a wrong decision it was to leave today."
"My purpose is to let them go! At the same time, I also let them know that I want to go to war with Chengjia and have your support. In this way, they will definitely not dare to help Chengjia, and we will have no worries."
After hearing Zhou Jun's words, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Zhou Jun. This kid is so scheming! This is what everyone was thinking at this time.
But the smiles on the faces of the Chen family became brighter and brighter. He secretly sighed that he really made the right bet. Facing such a scheming Zhou Jun, the Cheng family would definitely live or die.
"I, Zhou Jun, will never break my promise. When things are done, my Zhou family will only have one-third of the land originally owned by our family, and the rest will belong to you all."
"Then do you dare to ask the Zhou family master what his plan is?" The young man who came in first to speak formally made up his mind to agree when Zhou Jungang said it. He is the youngest and strongest among the family heads.
Naturally, he is also the person who is most unsatisfied with the status quo among all people.
"There are two plans, let you choose." Zhou Jun said, holding out two fingers: "First, all the families will take out all the masters who have entered martial arts in the family, and my Zhou family will lead them uniformly.
Gu defeated and started a family."
Everyone shook their heads and took out their martial arts masters for the Zhou family to lead? Don't be kidding, even though they are allies now, they still can't believe this.
Seeing everyone's reaction, Zhou Jun smiled, which was what he expected.
"May I ask what the second plan is?" The question was from the head of the Chen family, who didn't know Zhou Jun's plan either.
Zhou Jun said with a smile: "Plan 2 is much simpler. Make a statistics of all the shops and gambling houses in the family. And those of you who are doing it will choose the ones among them to annex alone based on your strength. But in this case, the income of each family will be
