Chapter 86

The next day, February 1322, 25 in the New Yu Calendar
What happened in the Sacred Heart Center spread throughout Tongling County within one day, and everyone in the three counties knew about it. Everyone not only knew the name Hou Yuxiao, but also knew about the rising family of the Zhaoyang Hou family. power.

Hou Yuxiao, the head of the Hou family, defeated Cheng Yue, the top genius in the county.

Not only that, he also personally killed his beloved disciple in front of Ding Dian, the king of Shen Zhao. The governor of Xingnan Prefecture, Peng Yuhu, appeared, the county prime minister Fan Longhe, and the head of Daluo Sect Ding Buhai all supported him. At the same time, he Even with the blessing of the Holy Aunt, he joined the Holy Cult, but in the end he forced Ding Dian to leave in anger without doing anything.

The key point is that Hou Yuxiao was in the Sacred Heart Residence. When he was doing these things, almost all the reputable people in the county were there, including the thousands of warriors who were watching the fun. As a result, Tongling County became a sensation...

In Beicheng Blacksmith Shop, Zhang Chong and Wang Peng were surrounded by more than a dozen people from their neighbors. They were telling the story of what they had seen at the Sacred Heart Residence yesterday. More and more people from the surrounding area came over. listen.

"The head of the Hou family's sky-holding stick technique is indeed powerful. Ordinary Dan-holding warriors are probably no match for him. I think he must have defeated Tian Linong, the master of the Tiger List. It was probably some jealous people who deliberately Said he took advantage."

"Isn't it? I guess it was Cheng Yue who spread the news. In order to save face, he deliberately spread the rumor and discredited the Hou family!"

"Defeating Cheng Yue is certainly powerful, but the most important thing is the mastermind of the Hou family. When they saw him killing Cheng Yue, many people laughed at him for being reckless, thinking that he was a bit younger after all. In hindsight, he already knew what he was doing."

"The appearance of Fan Juncheng and Sect Master Ding is still reasonable. They have not dealt with Ding Sicheng for a day or two. It is normal to come forward. Unexpectedly, even Peng Fuyin came and warned Ding Dian. Tsk tsk …”

"Master Hou is still smart. Carrying out the holy aunt in front of so many people is a real life-saving trump card!"

"The Hou family was canonized by Peng Fuyin on the spot. Now, as long as the Holy Sect General Forum registers and issues the seal, it will be considered a real promotion to the upper class. The name of the Zhaoyang Hou family will be truly confirmed... …”

"Don't you know, Hou Yuxiao is only 25 years old this year.

Two years ago, after his father Hou Tong, the previous generation of black ape demon, passed away, the Hou family was in a state of turmoil and was about to be destroyed!

Who would have thought that in just two short years, the Hou family not only came back from the dead, but was able to be promoted to the ranks and enter the family. No one would believe it if it was told! "

"Yesterday, when the Sacred Heart was in the center, Peng Fuyin was shocked when he heard about this. In front of so many people, he directly sighed, 'I should give birth to a son like Hou Yuxiao', saying that he is a rare young talent in our Xingnan Prefecture. Jun, I'm afraid that within a month or two, the head of the Hou family will become famous in Xingnan Mansion..."

Zhang Chong's last words immediately silenced the people around him, with a strong look of envy in their eyes.

They are all in the world, who doesn’t want a reputation...

The governor of Xingnan Prefecture, the Jade-faced God Fan Peng Yuhu, is a big shot who often comes to the Yongdu Holy Sect, a high official in the border areas, and a high-level official of the Rakshasa Holy Sect. This kind of praise comes from his mouth, which means a lot. generally!
…………

In the evening, Hou's house

At the gate, a middle-aged man with lowered eyebrows and a brocade robe stood in front of Hou Yuling with a flattering face, his body almost bent into a bow shape.

"Miss Third, our president Fang said that [-]% of all the income of the Tongling Chamber of Commerce in Zhaoyang will be deposited to the Hou family every month. From now on, our business in Zhaoyang will have to rely on the Hou family to take care of it!"

Hou Yuxiao smiled sweetly and said, "Please go back and bring a message back. My eldest brother is very satisfied with the gift sent by President Fang. From now on, business in Zhaoyang County will continue as usual."

Hearing these words, the middle-aged man in brocade robes immediately beamed with joy, his posture became more humble, and he said a few nice words before respectfully saying goodbye and leaving.

After watching him leave, Hou Yuling breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and returned to the lobby of the house, looked at everyone and said with a smile: "The last one is finally sent away!"

Except for Hou Yuxiao and Wang Gong, who was recovering from his injuries, everyone who came to the county this time was in the hall at the moment. Hearing these words, they all breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and the fatigue on their expressions was swept away, and then they turned around. He glanced around at the gifts piled up in the hall, and his expression became extremely excited.

Gao Cheng opened a box and took out the blood ginseng that had almost grown into a human shape. He sighed and said, "Does this promotion really have such a big influence? A 200-year-old blood ginseng must be worth tens of thousands of taels." Just give it away!"

"It was just confirmed yesterday and has not been officially sealed yet. I didn't expect that celebrities all over the city would start sending gifts today, and each one is more valuable than the last."

Su Li, who was standing next to him, let out a heartfelt sigh when he thought of the guests he had received throughout the day and the gifts he had received.

Although the rest of the people did not speak, the expressions on their faces were similar to theirs, and they were obviously in a state of extreme shock.

Only Hou Yuling was more sober, chuckled twice and said: "Apart from the Bai family, the Hongdao Gang, and the Xiyun Escort, the ones who came to give the big gifts are the Tongling Chamber of Commerce and the Longxing Mafang. They have business in Zhaoyang County, so they will naturally rely on us in the future, giving gifts and commissions, these are all undisclosed unspoken rules, in the county, it is not a secret!"

The three families of the Bai family are all on good terms with the Hou family, and they send heavy gifts. Firstly, they are rich and wealthy. Secondly, they need to reciprocate the courtesy in the future, so it is not a big benefit.

Mainly because more than 20 other unpopular small forces not only sent congratulatory gifts, but also gave part of the profits from the business in Zhaoyang County to the Hou family. The flattery in this was obvious.

The rest of the people understood it as soon as they heard it. Gao Cheng nodded and said: "When I was in Zhaoyang County a few years ago, I also came into contact with these small forces. Although their strength is not obvious, they are better than others because of their unity, and they also have backstage support. All aspects are taken care of properly.

There are bigger ones, such as the Tongling Chamber of Commerce. I heard that there is a big Luo Zong behind them, and they specialize in the grain and oil business of the whole county. The profit of the grain and oil business is indeed not high. But it's unusual.

According to outside rumors, the annual profit of the Chamber of Commerce is around 30 taels. Even excluding the contribution to various local departments, the Chamber of Commerce can still have nearly 10 taels left every year, which is not unattractive.

Another example is Longxing Horse House, which is engaged in horse trading business. It is backed by the county magistrate's office and supported by Fan Longhe. It manages the horse trade in a whole county and makes considerable profits every year.

There are other forces and so on. Although they are not popular, they are closely related to many forces in the county and should not be underestimated. They take the initiative to make friends and give away a share of Zhaoyang's profits. Their purpose is nothing more than to continue in Zhaoyang. It's just business, we don't do these things, we simply let them do it, and get dividends for nothing, that's fine! "

Everyone nodded after hearing this. These businesses sounded very profitable, but that was because they covered a whole county. In fact, the individual profits were very limited.

For second-rate forces like Da Luo Zong, the profit is not high and it is not worth doing it personally. And third-rate forces like Bai Clan do not have the ability to unify a county, so they let these low-rate forces do it. Done.

"There are 27 gifts in total, and the total price is about 8 taels of silver. It's so easy to get this money. If my eldest brother sees it, he will be very happy."

"Your eldest brother, am I such a person who has never seen the world?"

As soon as Hou Yucheng finished speaking, Hou Yuxiao's joking voice came from outside the door.

"Big brother is back!"

"Homeowner."

"Homeowner..."

Hou Yuxiao, who was dressed in a green brocade robe, walked in from the outside with a spring breeze on her face. She had a slightly drunken look on her face. She had obviously just drank a lot of wine. She waved her hands slightly to indicate that everyone did not need to salute, and glanced at the gifts in the hall. The smile on his face grew wider.

Hou Yuling saw the look in his eyes and said with a smile: "These are congratulatory gifts from more than 20 people in the county. My eldest brother is really famous in Tongling now!"

"Isn't it? The most talented person in Tongling, Black Ape Demon, Sky-Up Stick, Thousand-faced Jade Man, just the nicknames, I have heard them more than a dozen times this day."

"Yin of Peng Prefecture personally said that when you give birth to a son, you should be like Hou Yuxiao. I am afraid that the name of the head of the family will soon spread throughout the six counties of Xingnan Prefecture. Our Hou family is truly famous now."

…………

Everyone booed after hearing the words, but it didn't last long.

Ordinarily, no normal person could resist such compliments, but after hearing these words, Hou Yuxiao shook his head and chuckled twice. The blush on his face quickly dissipated, his body smelled slightly of alcohol, and his pupils became clear. stand up.

"Don't take these compliments too seriously. The more people praise you, the more careful you have to be. For a big man like Peng Yuhu, these are just casual remarks. It is impossible to guess whether they are unintentional or intentional. But for us Hou Hou at the moment As far as the family is concerned, it is not a great thing to have a reputation spread throughout the whole family!"

Everyone was instantly awakened by Hou Yuxiao's words. The excitement in their heads calmed down a lot, and there was a hint of thinking in their eyes.

"Except for the third-rate influencers who have good relations with the three families, the rest of the people who came to our door today must be some low-ranking people! These people have seen that when doing business in Zhaoyang County in the future, they will definitely not be able to avoid our Hou family, so they Will come to your door to give gifts so honestly.

After all, in this world, strength is still respected! "

After hearing the last words, everyone's thoughts were relieved, their expressions completely restored to clarity, and the excitement and joy in their hearts completely calmed down.

"Brother, I will go into seclusion this time when I go back. I must break through within this year. The Hou family cannot rely on you alone to support it!"

Hou Yucheng remembered that in the county town this time, Hou Yuxiao was almost alone in the management, his tone was extremely solemn, and his expression was slightly moved.

Hou Yuling on the side also said seriously: "Sanniang is just like second brother!"

Gao Cheng, Gao Hu, Hou Fei, and Su Li also straightened their expressions. They knelt down on one knee and looked moved. They clasped their fists and said excitedly: "We will definitely practice harder from now on to serve the Hou family and the family master!"

Seeing the determined looks of the six people, Hou Yuxiao's heart palpitated slightly.

With these loyal clan members in the Hou family, it is only a matter of time before they prosper. Promotion into the upper ranks is just the beginning...

After a long time, Hou Yuxiao calmed down and signaled everyone to get up.

"Today I have confirmed with Mr. Peng that the third-rate bronze seal and promotion documents are still there. When he returns to Fucheng, he will rush to Yongdu for processing. After the Holy Sect General Altar confirms, he will send it back to Zhaoyang and hand it over to me personally. In our hands, we have completely dealt with the matters here in the county!"

After Hou Yuxiao said this, he breathed a sigh of relief. The reactions of the others were similar to his. In the short ten days in the county, they were all exhausted, but they finally managed to keep the clouds clear and the moon shine. .

After being promoted to Liuliu, all the goods brought by the five carriages have been processed, and all the supplies that the family should buy have been purchased. Today, Hou Yuxiao also hosted a banquet at the Sacred Heart Residence for celebrities from the county and city who are friends with the Hou family, including Peng Yuhu. Basically everything I can think of has been taken care of.

Now that the matters in the county and town are over, you can go home after Hou Yuxiao makes arrangements...
