Cultivation in the Family: Everyone is a villain

The fifth day of February in the year 1322 of the New Yu Calendar

In a hidden mine in the original Qinglang Gang mining area in Nanling Mountain, Hou Yuxiao dressed in Tsing Yi stood at the front, with Hou Yucheng and Hou Yuling behind him.

A faint golden light shone on the faces of the three people, and their expressions were obviously a little moved. Their pupils were focused on the three large boxes in front of them.

There were three-inch long gold bars stacked in the box. So much gold gathered together that the dark mine pit was reflected with a layer of light.

"This gold mine mines more than ten kilograms every day. In a whole month, we mined more than three hundred kilograms and smelted it directly on the spot. Counting some waste residue, we produced a total of three hundred gold bars, each weighing one

Jin, that is, three hundred kilograms!”

Hou Yucheng's tone was full of excitement. As he spoke, he took a gold bar and handed it to Hou Yuxiao. Then he looked at Hou Yuling next to him and asked: "Sanniang, you have been to the county town. How many silver taels can this batch of gold be exchanged for?"

Hou Yuling gently stroked her forehead, calmed down slightly, looked at Hou Yuxiao and replied: "There are only three companies in the county that can take such a large amount of gold, namely Luosha Yinhao, Dajin Tongbao, and Daluo Piaohao.

, the silver exchange rates of the three companies vary from high to low, but they all fluctuate between 98.5 and 101.5, and this gold can be exchanged for a minimum of 472,800 taels!"

"470,000 taels, tsk tsk, this is the mining volume in the first month. Some of us have gone in to explore. This gold mine is not big, but it is conservatively estimated that it can be mined for five to six months. This is two hundred thousand taels."

More than ten thousand taels of silver, so much money..."

After hearing this number, Hou Yuling looked quite excited, but she still had to be more careful. After thinking about it, a hint of worry appeared on her face and she said: "More is more, but if such a large amount of gold flows into the county, if

Being targeted by someone with intentions..."

"Hey, have you forgotten our eldest brother's name?"

Hou Yuling recalled it, her eyes immediately lit up, she looked at Hou Yuxiao with a smile, and said: "By the way, I almost forgot, let's prepare it first, and then the eldest brother will change his face to redeem it. As long as it is safer, it shouldn't be

There will be problems."

Hou Yuxiao, who had been listening to the two men talking, nodded at this time, put the gold bars in his hands into the box, and said with a smile: "I will take care of this matter. Second, you can take advantage of this time to mine. This time

The county will have a lot of money to spend, and I’m afraid there won’t be enough!”

"I understand, brother, when are you going to go to the county?"

"Just ten days from now. I have a lot of things to do when I go to the county this time. I estimate that I will have to stay there for ten days and a half. I'll leave early and come back early!"

Hou Yucheng immediately said with a hint of pleading: "Brother, please take me with you. I haven't been to the county for many years. I have almost forgotten what the county is like."

Hou Yuling was familiar with the situation in the county, and he knew that his elder brother would definitely take her with him, so he motioned to Hou Yuling next to him with his eyes, asking her to help him talk.

But before Hou Yuling could speak for him, Hou Yuxiao agreed to him.

"The fourth child is comprehending the Yuan Gang Pearl. There are still a lot of affairs in the clan for the time being. The fifth brother, a master of the Gang Qi realm, must be inseparable. There are many things going on in the county this time. I originally planned to take you two with me.

Don’t worry!”

Hou Yucheng was immediately excited, but before he could speak, Hou Yuxiao's next words followed.

"But you have to promise not to cause trouble. As long as I don't speak, you won't do anything with anyone. Only if you promise me will I take you there."

"I promise, I will never fight anyone without my eldest brother asking!"

Seeing the second child patting his burly chest and swearing assurances, Hou Yuxiao still felt a little guilty in his heart. It wasn't that the second child was disobedient, but the main reason was that he had such a strong temper that sometimes he couldn't hold it back when his temper got the better of him.

However, if I go to the county this time, I should be fine if I have a bad temper...

Hou Yuxiao's pupils flashed slightly, and he thought to himself.

February 15th, 1322 in the New Yu Calendar

As Hou's orders were issued one after another, the rebuilt Zhaoyang City recovered faster.

Businesses in the market have restarted again, and the streets have become lively again; more and more people are going to Nanling Mountain to make a living; the lives of ordinary people have gradually become normal.

It is worth mentioning that under Hou's re-planning, the entire Zhaoyang City has a new layout.

Changle Street, where the Hou Mansion was originally located, has now become a gathering place for warriors from the Hou family. At the same time, the orphans adopted by the Hou Mansion also live here.

Dongkang Street, where the Green Wolf Gang was originally located, has been transformed into the stables of the Hou family. Now the Hou family alone has nearly two hundred horses. As the number of warriors increases, the number of horses will also increase in the future.

More and more, this street is not only used as the Hou family's stables, but it is also rumored that the Hou family also has plans to make this street the horse market of Zhaoyang City in the future...

As for the Hou Mansion, it has now been moved to the county government office in a grand manner.

Not only that, the Hou Mansion solemnly announced last month that from now on all public security affairs in the county, including tax collection, will be the responsibility of the Hou family. As soon as this order came out, many people were frightened, and they all thought that the Hou family was

I really plan to rebel.

But a month and a half has passed, and the county has not sent anyone down to investigate. Many smart people have already figured out that the Hou family must have reached some agreement with the county, otherwise it would be impossible to renovate Zhaoyang City so unscrupulously.

From now on, everything in Zhaoyang City will basically be decided by the Hou family. As more and more people realize this, the words of the Hou family become more and more effective in the city.

Pingyang and Feiyun streets, where the Hou Mansion is located, have become the busiest places in the city. There are 300,000 people in the county. These two streets alone handle at least half of the population.

The streets of Pingyang are bustling with people.

Suddenly, a rapid sound of horse hooves came from the east, and pedestrians looked up one after another, showing a hint of shock.

I saw a group of Houfu warriors dressed in black, with about a hundred riders, escorting five carriages loaded with goods, galloping through the streets and alleys toward the West City.

City streets are divided into pedestrian paths and horse paths, but it is rare to see so many people and horses moving together, so pedestrians all moved to the side to avoid them.

"What is the Hou Mansion doing?"

"Didn't you see them pulling a carriage? They should be going to the county town."

"What's in that carriage? Why are there such deep wrinkles in the road?"

"Iron ingots aren't that heavy, right?"

"You will know if you go and ask. The head of the Hou family is at the front..."

"Go, go, why don't you ask, if Hou Laoer insists on giving you a slap in the face, you will feel better, right?"

………………

At the intersection of the official road in the west of Zhaoyang, everyone from the Hou family gathered here. Hou Yuxiao stood at the front alone. He turned around and glanced behind him. He saw a hundred black knights with the lowest cultivation level of the fifth level, and five carriages loaded with goods.

, a smile appeared on his face.

Within a month and a half, all the warriors of the third level and above in the clan were basically included in the Hou clan.

According to the regulations he originally set, for the ten-day cadres of the Shanghoumen, each department has a full staff of thirty people, with a minimum cultivation level of the fifth level; for the twelve earthly branch stalls of the Lower Houmen, each stall has a full complement of 100 people, with a minimum cultivation level of the third level.

The total number of people is 1522,

At present, there are 404 warriors of the third level and above in the clan. Naturally, it is far from enough to fill up the regulations here. They can only satisfy some of them first. Hou Yuxiao has allowed them to recruit on their own in the past half month. Among them, the Geng tribe is led by Su Li, and Gao Hu is led by Gao Hu.

The number of people in the first division has been completed.

Needless to say, Gao Hu, the direct descendants of the Hou family are naturally the first choice of those warriors, and because Su Li is young, his development potential must be higher than that of Xiong Nutao and Zhang Kong. These two people should be completed first, and Hou Yuxiao

No surprise either.

This time when we went to the county town, Gao Hu's Si tribe, Su Li's Geng tribe, and Hou Fei's Kui tribe totaled 93 people, including Gao Cheng, Wang Gong, Hou Yucheng, Hou Yuling and himself.

Including others, there are more than a hundred people in total.

Hou Yuxiao looked back at the second and fourth children, waved his hands and said: "No need to send them away anymore, you take care of your home, we will come back as soon as the county affairs are finished!"

"Yes, brother!"

Hou Yujie and Hou Yuduan heard this and immediately nodded in agreement.

Hou Yuxiao held the reins, turned to face the official road, and waved to everyone.

"Let's go to Tongling County!"

"yes!"

More than a hundred riders shouted in unison, and instantly their energy and blood shook the sky. Hou Yuxiao took the lead and led everyone on the official road to the west...
