Family practice: all members of the villain

Chapter 13 Hou’s Fangs

"Brother, you agreed this time, I will take the lead. During the time you went to Tianling County, those bastards came to provoke me a lot. If you hadn't asked me to endure it during this time, I would have taken action and killed those bastards. Got it!"

Hearing Hou Yuxiao's words, Hou Yucheng looked excited. He took a step forward, and the sword on his waist suddenly made a sound, as if he, like his master, could no longer hold back.

Seeing Hou Yucheng's appearance, Hou Yuxiao suddenly frowned.

Aren’t you the ones who killed those 30 or so people in Nanling Mountain? You still have the nerve to say that you endured it during this period of time...

"There's no rush. Let's talk about Hou Men's current personnel situation so that I can make arrangements first!"

In order to facilitate the concentration of strength, all the warriors of the Hou family were unified and assigned to the Hou Clan by Hou Yuxiao. As the strongest armed force of the family, the leaders of the Hou Clan are naturally their five brothers and sisters. Originally, the five dragon heads were assigned the position, but the fifth brother Hou Yuduan was stubborn and unwilling to join, so there were only four dragon heads left.

Hou Yuxiao, the head of the family, naturally serves as the head of the dragon, followed by Hou Yucheng, Hou Yuling, and Hou Yujie.

The upper Houmen is under the control of the second dragon leader Hou Yucheng, and the lower Houmen is under the control of the fourth dragon leader Hou Yujie. The third dragon leader Hou Yuling is currently in charge of the family business, responsible for the operation of the iron ore and medicinal materials business, and often travels in Tongling County and the surrounding two counties. Therefore, he is also responsible for collecting intelligence information from the Jianghu.

Upon hearing Hou Yuxiao asking about Hou Men's situation, Hou Yucheng and Hou Yujie nodded and answered one after another.

"Currently, there is only the Kui tribe led by Hou Fei in the Shanghou Sect. Hou Fei, the leader, has an eighth-level cultivation. Among the 30 people under his jurisdiction, eight are at the sixth level, and the remaining 22 are all at the fifth level."

"Although all the twelve earthly branches of Xiahoumen have opened stalls, there is currently only one Zishu stall. The head of Zishu stall, Hou Cunkai, has a seventh-level cultivation. 54 of the hundred people under his command are all first-level cultivation, and 32 Double and fourteen triple cultivation bases.

Among the other eleven earthly branches, except for Hou Ying, the head of Chenlong, who has a seventh-level cultivation and leads six people, the other ten stalls all have a sixth-level cultivation and have four people under his command, all of whom have a first-level cultivation. . "

After Hou Yuxiao pondered for a moment, he roughly understood this series of numbers. The total number of people in the upper sect was 31, and the total number of people in the lower sect was 163, which was exactly in line with the current number of warriors in the family, 194.

There is only one warrior at the eighth level, Hou Fei, two at the seventh level, Hou Cun and Hou Ying, ten at the sixth level, 22 at the fifth level, 14 at the third level, 32 at the second level, and the remaining 111 are all at the first level. of cultivation.

Counting the five of them, the current total number of warriors in the family is 199, only one short of breaking through the two hundred mark!
The key point is that among the five of them, except Hou Yuduan, the other three are all at the tenth level of marrow cleansing realm. Hou Yuxiao himself is a master of the half-step Gang Qi realm. In the entire Zhaoyang County, he only needs to be afraid of Ren Feng. one person.

"Unknowingly, the family has such amazing power!"

Hou Yucheng was the only one who sighed, but the other two breathing sounds were obviously aggravated, and it was Hou Yujie and Hou Yuling.

Only Hou Yuduan is in control of the family's finances. He has long known the number of warriors in the family, so when he heard these numbers, he didn't feel much. On the contrary, there was a little sadness in his eyes.

Seeing the excitement in everyone's eyes, he couldn't help but pour cold water on them and spoke leisurely from the side.

"There are too many people, and a lot of expenses are incurred. Since the big brother established the salary system for warriors, in addition to the necessary training expenses, these 194 warriors will have to spend about 1500 taels per month in salary alone. This is still Hou Cunhou Yinghou is not the three retainer with the highest cultivation level, and does not receive salary.

In addition, each person has one set of clothing per month, which costs 5 taels of silver each, which is 1000 taels per month, as well as the aftermath of injuries or even death of brothers. If these three items are added together, the clan will earn 3000 taels of silver per month. It will cost 36000 taels of silver, which will be [-] taels in a year.

In addition to the expenses of the warriors, there are more than 800 ordinary people in the clan, and they spend at least 1600 taels of silver every month.

Not to mention other temporary expenses. For example, my eldest brother took 6000 taels from me last time he went to Tianling County. "

When Hou Yuduan said this, he glanced at Hou Yuxiao resentfully.

I just took over the clan's account book at the beginning of this year. At that time, my eldest brother spent money to give Ren Feng a heavy gift. There was only more than 3 taels of silver left in the account. I spent 5000 taels to buy a hundred horses from Hou Feizi Shu stall. The money was spent by the clan members practicing kung fu and the eldest brother was recruiting people everywhere, so it was all spent in less than three months.

There is only the last month left this year. The iron ore and medicinal materials business in Nanling Mountain can only earn 24000 taels at most after deducting the various costs and the 2000% tax paid to the county government, which is equivalent to every month. Less than [-] taels.

At present, these two businesses are the most profitable for the family. They earn 2000 taels per month. Including the protection fee of Changle Street, more than 100 shops can earn about 1000 taels per month, and the total monthly income is 3000 taels. .

I have calculated the previous consumption expenses, and it all adds up to at least 5000 taels per month. The current income of the family is far from enough. The reason why we can maintain it until now is all due to the 3 taels in the account book at the beginning of the year.

But as of yesterday, I only have less than 3000 taels left on hand. If this continues, not to mention the two hundred warriors, I am afraid that the clan will soon be unable to support those servants..."

The three people who were lamenting the increase in family strength a second ago suddenly became more awake after hearing Hou Yuduan's words, showing a hint of helplessness.

Although Hou Yuxiao had been prepared for these figures in his heart and did not show a look of helplessness on his face, he sighed slightly in his heart and felt a sudden increase in pressure.

A penny beats a hero!
It is true that the family's strength has increased, but the bigger the stall, the more money is needed to maintain it. Everyone understands this truth!
Warriors need to practice, and ordinary people need to eat. Now there are only five of them blood relatives of the Hou family, including Zhao Si, Wang Wu, Hou Fei, Hou Ying, Hou Cun, and the other ten stalls at the Twelve Earthly Branches stall. Fifteen of them are considered old people of the Hou family. They can follow the Hou family for free. What about the others?
In this world, no one is a fool. If you don't provide tangible benefits, they won't even look at you, let alone join the Hou family.

Someone has calculated that the total number of warriors in Zhaoyang County is less than a thousand. The four major forces plus the county government account for nearly [-]%. The Hou family can have [-] warriors, and their strength is already at the absolute top of the five. .

And the biggest contribution to the reason why the Hou family can attract so many warriors to join is the string of numbers that Hou Yuduan just said.

In fact, the business operations of the four warrior factions in Zhaoyang County are not much different, and their monthly profits are almost the same. The Hou family's rapid development in the past year was entirely due to the overdraft of family assets.

A year ago, when Hou Yuxiao announced these plans, Hou Yucheng, Hou Yuling, and Hou Yujie all opposed it. However, seeing Hou Yuxiao's insistence, the three finally compromised. Now that they heard that the family's money could no longer support them, naturally they all Eyes focused on him.

"Money is more important, or strength is more important?"

Facing the gazes of the four people, Hou Yuxiao asked calmly. The answer was almost yes. He continued to speak without waiting for the four people to answer.

"Back then, the old man just came to Zhaoyang County and was unfamiliar with the place. Although he had strength, he could not defeat the four with two fists. He did not dare to monopolize such a treasure in Nanling Mountain by himself.

In desperation, he approached the county government to cooperate, united the three major forces, and five parties worked together to develop Nanling Mountain. Now, the medicinal materials and iron ore produced by Nanling Mountain every month have a total value of 16000 taels, and after deducting 1% of the tax, there is still The price is about [-] taels, which will be divided equally among the five families.

When the old man came here, he was alone with five of us children. It was understandable that he was worried and a little lacking in strength.

But things are different now. If the five of us poke out, the whole Zhaoyang County will be shaken. That day in the Sacred Heart Center, that old man Ren Feng did not dare to react at all when I was so humiliated. This is an example! "

Hou Yuxiao's domineering words echoed in the martial arts training ground. The four people looked slightly startled. After a moment of pause, they continued to speak with a seductive tone.

"What do you think, the entire Nanling Mountain belongs to our Hou family?
The monthly protection fee for a Changle street is 1000 taels. What if we also collect the protection fees for Dongkang Feiyun Street?
In addition to the two businesses of iron ore and medicinal materials, Feiyingmen also has a Feiying Escort Agency co-operated with Ren Feng, which specializes in business in Tongling County. It is said that the monthly income is more than 1000 taels. If this escort agency is run by our Hou family, Come and do it?

The Green Wolf Gang has also cooperated with Ren Feng in the past two years to do loan sharking. It is also a very profitable business. What if we can also take over and do it ourselves!

Have you ever calculated how much money we can make every month if all these businesses belong to our family? "

The breathing of Hou Yucheng and the others quickened rapidly, but Hou Yuduan was the only one who was still awake, and blurted out after thinking for a moment.

"If it is true as the elder brother said, all these businesses are handled by us, then after deducting 15000% of the county government tax, the monthly family income will be at least about [-] taels.

However, this is impossible! "

Hou Yuduan's last words suddenly brought Hou Yucheng and the others back from fantasy to reality.

That's right, it's impossible.

Not to mention that the Hou family does not have the strength to fight one against three and wipe out all three families. You must know that the county leader Ren Feng also has a share in the business of each of their families. If they really robbed all these businesses, Ren Feng will definitely follow. Our Hou family is at loggerheads.

But Hou Yuling thought of something first, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"You don't have to worry about the county, I have already solved it. As for those three families, I have already had countermeasures. It is of course impossible for our family to destroy the three families alone, but if there are external forces involved, it will be different! "

"What kind of external force? Did the eldest brother also find foreign aid?" Hou Yucheng asked quickly.

"Where did you put the little girl I kidnapped?"

"When I first came back, I also brought her back with me. Her senior brother named Duan Zhengqi is almost healed from his injuries. They are both locked up in the west wing."

Among the four, only Hou Yujie's expression gradually became clearer, and he had vaguely understood something.

He had been to Tianling County and brought two young mares to the Mountain Sword Sect for breeding. He knew Tian Honglu's identity clearly.

"Brother, you are colluding..."

"Shh... shut up!"

Seeing Hou Yuxiao put his index finger on his lips with a cautious look, Hou Yujie immediately understood and his expression became extremely exciting.

Along with Hou Yucheng, the thoughts in his mind suddenly became clear, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

No wonder...no wonder Tian Honglu has been arrested for almost half a month and no one has come to rescue her yet. It turns out that Hou Yuxiao has already been in contact there...

"That's all I'm going to say for the time being. I've already informed Hou Cun in the county town to bring all 50 of his men back, and he'll be back tomorrow night at the latest.

Today is December [-]th. In the next half month, you can look for any opportunity to provoke the Green Wolf Gang and the Flying Eagle Sect. Now that they are at a disadvantage, the most they can do is go to Ren Feng to file a complaint and not dare to make any big moves.

Old man Ren Feng was suffocated by my aura in Sacred Heart Residence. Before the new protector takes office, as long as we don't have a direct conflict with him, he will definitely choose to endure it given his fear of death.

In the past half month, you have brought people with you to take revenge and complain. You have vented all your anger from two years ago. Let me attack the arrogance of those two families. The first step is to squeeze their living space. , I suggest you...start from Nanling Mountain! "

"Understood, big brother!"

The three of them stood up together, their expressions full of excitement.

Hou Yucheng couldn't help but pinch the big knife at his waist.

Hou Yujie licked the corners of his dry mouth slightly, with a murderous intent in his eyes.

Hou Yu smiled sweetly, her murderous intent hidden deep in her beautiful eyes. People who didn't know it thought she was thinking of something happy.

Hou Yuduan was the only one who felt the murderous aura in his brother and sister. He sighed one after another and wanted to say a few words of comfort. However, thinking of the tragic situation of the Hou family when his father Hou Tong died two years ago, he chose to remain silent.

It is true that he aspires to follow the path of a sage, but even a sage still has seven emotions and six desires, let alone him!
