Rise of Qinglian
Chapter 18 News (seeking investment)
Qingyun Mountain is located in the east of Qingyun County. It stretches for hundreds of miles and has hundreds of peaks of different sizes. Qinglian Mountain is one of the few spiritual mountains in Qingyun Mountain. It is named for its shape resembling a green lotus.
Although Qinglian Mountain is not precipitous and majestic, it is like spring all the year round, and the mountain is full of exotic flowers and plants.
The Wang family's family residence is in Qinglian Mountain. From the mountainside to the peak, there are a large number of pavilions, where hundreds of Wang family members live.
There is a mansion on the top of the peak, which occupies a very large area, in a certain quiet courtyard.
There is a water pool more than ten feet in size in the courtyard, where several blue lotus flowers are planted.
A winding gravel path leads directly to a two-story blue attic.
Inside the house, a middle-aged man with a square face in a blue cloth gown was lying on the desk, flipping through a book.
The middle-aged man is none other than Wang Mingyuan, the current head of the Wang family.
Wang Mingyuan is in his forties this year. He is a four-spirit root, but he is fair. He was elected as the head of the family by most of the clan elders and is responsible for taking care of the big and small affairs of the head of the family.
There are currently one hundred and forty-four immortal cultivators in the Wang family, and one clan elder has just passed away.
It is not easy to manage the affairs of a family. Wang Mingyuan has to take care of all aspects. This has delayed his cultivation. So far, he has only reached the fifth level of Qi Refining, but his aptitude is not good. very low.
"Hey, did you lose money again this month?" Wang Mingyuan put down the book in his hand, frowned, rubbed his eyes, and looked a little tired.
"Boom boom boom!"
There was a knock on the door, and a woman's voice sounded: "Husband, I made some food, is it convenient for you now?"
Wang Mingyuan relaxed his frown and said, "Qing'er, you are not an outsider, so just come in."
"Aren't I afraid of affecting your work? You are a king who takes care of everything on Sundays. How can I, a woman, dare to disturb you?"
A middle-aged beautiful woman in a green dress came in, holding a tray with both hands, on which was a plate of blue pastries and a bowl of white porridge.
The middle-aged beautiful woman is Liu Qing'er, Wang Changsheng's mother.
Liu Qing'er put down the tray, and put the cakes and porridge in front of Wang Mingyuan.
"Qinglian cake, lotus seed porridge, Qing'er, you haven't cooked it for me since you gave birth to Ping'an County to serve as a celestial master."
Wang Mingyuan smiled slightly, picked up a piece of pastry and put it in his mouth.
Liu Qing'er came to Wang Mingyuan's back, put her jade hands on Wang Mingyuan's shoulders, and rubbed his shoulders.
"Do you still remember the son who gave birth? I thought you forgot about the birth because of all your busy schedules." Liu Qing'er said angrily.
Wang Mingyuan smiled wryly, and said: "How could it be! I only gave birth to this son, how could I forget him? In another year, when the term of office expires, I will transfer him back. That's all right!"
"Do you think I'm here to tell you about this? The fourth sibling told me that zombies appeared in Ping'an County. If the fourth sibling hadn't told me, how long would you want to keep it from me?"
"I have sent Uncle Wu, Chang Ge and Chang Yu to Ping'an County for reinforcements. The baby will not be in danger, so don't worry!" Wang Mingyuan patted Liu Qing'er's jade hand on his shoulder and comforted him.
Liu Qing'er raised her eyebrows and was about to say something when a hurried shout came from outside, "Third Uncle, Third Uncle."
When Liu Qing'er heard the words, she swallowed the words again.
Wang Mingyuan hurriedly picked up the porcelain bowl and finished the porridge in the bowl as quickly as possible.
As soon as he put down the porcelain bowl, Wang Changge and Wang Changyu hurried in.
Seeing the two of them, Liu Qing'er's expression tightened, and she asked worriedly: "Changge, Changyu, didn't you go to Ping'an County? Why did you come back so soon? Could it be something wrong with the birth?"
Wang Mingyuan didn't speak, but there was a bit of worry in his eyes.
"No, the ninth brother is safe and sound. We came back on the order of the fifth uncle, and we have important matters to report."
Wang Changge deliberately emphasized the tone of "important matter".
"Changge, what important things can't be said in front of me? I have been married to the Wang family for more than 20 years, am I an outsider?" Liu Qing'er was a little displeased.
Wang Changge smiled awkwardly, and explained: "I didn't mean that, Third Aunt, these are the original words of Fifth Uncle. Seventh Sister and I are also following orders, and Third Aunt please forgive me."
Wang Changyu rolled his eyes, walked forward quickly, and said sweetly: "Third Aunt, I have seen the ninth brother, let me tell you about the situation of the ninth brother!"
Liu Qing'er's expression softened, and she walked out with Wang Changyu.
"What's the big deal? You can't say it in front of your third aunt?" Wang Mingyuan frowned and said.
Wang Changge's expression froze, he walked forward quickly, and said in a low voice, "Third Uncle, a dark gold vein was discovered in Qingshi Town, Ping'an County. Well, it was discovered by the ninth brother. Fifth Uncle asked you to send more people to Qingshi Town. Mining black gold."
"What? Xuan Jin? Seriously?" Wang Mingyuan exclaimed, breathing heavily.
"It's true, I brought back a piece of black gold ore."
Wang Changge took out the ore from the storage bag and handed it over.
"I don't know anything about refining materials. Changge, go and invite your third aunt back. Although your third aunt is only an apprentice in refining, she is familiar with identifying various refining materials. Let her confirm."
Wang Mingyuan actually knew that what he had was black gold ore, but he wanted to find an excuse to appease Liu Qing'er's dissatisfaction.
What Wang Changge said just now made everyone feel uncomfortable.
After Liu Qing'er married into the Wang family, she rarely left Qinglian Mountain. She raised silkworms, weaved clothes, and farmed with a group of women surnamed Wang. broke his wife's heart.
Wang Changge took the order to go, and soon invited Liu Qing'er back.
"Why did you call me back? Be careful that I will reveal the secrets of your royal family." Liu Qing'er said with some dissatisfaction.
With a straight face, Wang Mingyuan said solemnly: "Okay, here are the two juniors! Pay attention to the influence. A black gold vein was discovered in Qingshi Town, Ping'an County. It was discovered by Sheng'er. Qing'er, you used to work in Shenbing Pavilion After ten years, I have seen a lot and learned a lot, quickly see if this is Xuan Jin, if it is Xuan Jin, it will be a great achievement to give birth to a child."
Hearing that her son discovered a vein of black gold, Liu Qing'er didn't care to get angry, took the ore, examined it carefully,
She moved her lips a few times, and there was a muffled "puchi", a mass of red flames emerged out of thin air in the palm of her hand, and a large piece of red flames enveloped the ore.
Time passed little by little, and the ore showed no sign of melting.
Liu Qing'er took out a blue dagger, injected mana, and slashed at the ore.
"Clang!"
There was a dull sound of gold and iron colliding, and a shallow white mark appeared on the surface of the ore.
"That's right, it's black gold ore. I don't know how big it is, but even a small dark gold mine is enough to tide us over." Liu Qing'er looked a little excited.
"Great, thanks to the ancestors, our Wang family has been saved, Changge, besides you, how many people know about this?" Wang Mingyuan asked solemnly.
Wang Changge thought for a while and said truthfully: "There are also fifth uncle and ninth brother. By the way, some clansmen without spiritual roots know something. They were the first to mine the black gold ore. The black gold ore is located in a quarry. But they didn't know it was Xuan Jin, when Seventh Sister and I came back, Fifth Uncle was watching in person at the quarry, and Ninth Brother gathered all the people who knew about it, strictly forbidding them to contact outsiders."
"Okay, you are not allowed to reveal a word about this matter to the outside world. I will immediately call a meeting with my fourth brother and send people to Qingshi Town as soon as possible."
"Yes, third uncle."
Wang Changge winked at Wang Changyu, Wang Changyu understood, and left with Wang Changge, leaving Wang Mingyuan and Liu Qing'er behind.
"I knew that Sheng'er was capable. He made such a great contribution to discovering a dark gold vein, so I can transfer him back!" Liu Qing'er said expectantly.
"The state has state laws, and the family has family rules. When a child is born, he will be rewarded heavily for his great achievements. It will not be too late to transfer him back after his term of office expires. Anyway, there is only one year left. It is easy to transfer him back in advance, and it will be easy for me to do so in the future. It's not easy to handle family affairs." Wang Mingyuan said with some embarrassment.
Liu Qing'er glared at Wang Mingyuan, and said angrily: "Okay, okay, every time you are asked to transfer the baby back, you always use this reason. I am afraid that the truth will come true. You only have the Wang family in your heart, without us. Xiaojia, you can sleep in the study room this month! Anyway, without us two, you will still live the same."
After speaking, Liu Qing'er left angrily.
Seeing this situation, Wang Mingyuan smiled wryly, his mouth full of bitterness.
Why didn't he want to transfer his son back, but as the head of the family, he must first convince the people of the clan before he can manage affairs. For this reason, he strictly demanded himself and his wife and children.
It is precisely because of his attitude towards things that he has a high prestige among the clansmen.
