Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather

When Yang Zhengshan arrived at Xingyue Island, it was already the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, and the entire voyage took one and a half months.

It was close to noon, and it was the busiest time in the dock and town. As soon as the Dafu ship docked at the dock, Yang Zhengshan heard a burst of noisy noises.

Walking out of the ship building, Yang Zhengshan looked at the scene in the dock and smiled faintly.

There were a large number of shirtless men carrying goods in the warehouse outside the dock. Hundreds of men were like ants moving all kinds of goods out or into the warehouse.

The circular and rectangular warehouses were connected, covering an area of ​​more than ten acres.

On the east side of the warehouse was a market, where many small vendors had set up stalls and all kinds of food were already cooked in the pot.

Looking north, there was a straight bluestone street three feet wide, with shops of all sizes on both sides of the street, and various flags with shop names fluttering in the wind.

Behind the shops are houses, which are neatly arranged in a row, and form a number of uniform-sized houses.

When Yang Zhengshan left Xingyue Island, the houses there had just begun to be built, but he didn't expect that they had already become a large area.

As for the original town, it has now completely merged with the dock, and there is no longer a city boundary.

"I haven't been back for three years, and there have been great changes!" Yu Qingyi looked at the dock and the street and couldn't help but exclaimed.

Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly, "There are more and more people on the island!"

The reason why Xingyue Island has changed so much is that the population on the island is increasing, and the second is that Xingyue Island has become a supply point for nearby routes.

In fact, there are two ports belonging to Xingyue Island, one is the Xingyue Island Port in front of us, and the other is the North Ring Island Port in the north.

In addition to Xingyue Island, Xingyue Islands also have four larger islands. After the Yang family occupied Xingyue Islands, they changed these four islands into east, west, south and north ring islands.

The other three islands are ordinary islands, each with a population of about 7,000 to 8,000. Only Beihuan Island has been developed into a port.

The reason for developing Beihuan Island is that it is relatively close to the north-south and east-west routes, and can be used as a supply point for these two routes.

The port on Xingyue Island is not open to the public, and only the merchant ships of Yangjia Merchants and Tenglongwei are allowed to dock. The port on Beihuan Island is open to the public, and any merchant ship can dock.

In terms of port scale, the scale of Beihuan Island Port is larger, which can dock hundreds of ships and accommodate four to five thousand crew members for rest and supplies.

But in terms of supplies, Xingyue Island is more complete, and there are many high-end supplies, such as elixirs, weapons, medicinal materials, etc.

The Zhu family opened a weapons shop on Xingyue Island, selling various weapons.

Xingyue Island also has a large medicinal field, where many herbs can be grown, and even more than ten kinds of precious medicines can be grown.

As for elixirs, Wang Mingzhe is now the master of elixirs on Xingyue Island.

Therefore, Xingyue Island also has special products. Although the number of special products is not large, they can also bring some prosperity to Xingyue Island.

Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi got off the boat and walked towards their home along the bluestone street.

They did not notify anyone when they came back, and even the shopkeeper on the boat wanted to send a speedboat back to notify them in advance, but he was stopped.

Because once someone got the news of his return in advance, it would inevitably attract countless people to the dock to greet him, which would definitely affect the operation of the dock.

After Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi got off the boat, many people recognized them. Many people were very surprised to see them, and they saluted one by one, and some people had already run to report.

Before the two of them walked to the government office, Yang Mingcheng ran over in a hurry.

From a distance, Yang Mingcheng shouted hoarsely: "Dad, mother!"

"Son kowtows to father and mother!"

This guy kowtowed like a child with snot and tears.

Yang Zhengshan was speechless for a while, "You are so old, can't you be more stable!"

"Get up quickly, don't embarrass yourself here!"

There are so many people watching around, Yang Mingcheng's behavior really damages the majestic image of the Yang family's master.

However, Yang Mingcheng didn't feel ashamed at all, and stood up crying and laughing, "My son just misses his father and mother!"

Yang Zhengshan was relieved and amused, and didn't know what to say.

"Let's talk about it when we get back!"

Speaking of which, they left for too long this time. In more than three years, Yang Zhengshan has several great-grandchildren.

"Master, Madam!" Qingxia and Hongyun were delighted to see the two return.

"Well! Not bad, they still look so beautiful!"

Yu Qingyi looked at the two good disciples and praised.

"Hehe, we are still young, and Madam is also young!" Hongyun laughed.

"Dad, do you want to let the children come to pay their respects? The children all miss you!" Yang Mingcheng said.

Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly, "Okay, I haven't seen them for several years, you can ask each branch to come and meet them!"

Grandchildren are fine, Yang Zhengshan knows them all and has taken care of them, but this great-grandchildren is different. Now he doesn't know how many there are, and he can't even name some of them.

He named the older ones, but Yang Zhengshan was too lazy to name the younger ones, naming them was too brain-consuming, so he let their father and grandfather think about it themselves.

Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi went to the backyard to change into loose clothes first, and then came to the front yard to wait for the children and grandchildren to pay their respects.

First, the eldest wife Yang Mingcheng and Wang led a large group of people in. Yang Zhengshan looked at it and found that there were really a few who didn’t know each other.

Yang Mingcheng and Wang have two sons and two daughters, Yang Chengye, Yang Wanqing, Yang Wanyi and Yang Chengzhen.

Yang Chengye and Yu were in Chongshan Town and never came back, but their children were all on the island.

Yang Wanqing married into the Qu family in Nanjiang Town. She came back before Yang Zhengshan left Xingyue Island.

Yang Wanyi handed it over to Wu Zhan’s eldest son Wu Haiyang, and Yang Chengzhen took Lu Wenyuan’s youngest daughter Lu Miaotong, and they all lived on Xingyue Island.

Yang Chengye's eldest son Yang Qinyuan is twenty-two years old this year. He took Luo Shang's granddaughter, Luo Zhen's youngest daughter Luo Keqing.

Now there are even two dolls of Yang Qinyuan.

Yang Qinyuan's eldest son Yang Jijue is now three years old.

Yang Zhengshan is not just a family of descendants, but has several children and five generations of descendants.

"Come here, let the ancestors hug!" Yang Zhengshan waved to the little guy.

Yang Jijue pouted and looked at his mother beside him. Luo Keqing quickly pushed him gently, "Jue'er is not afraid, my ancestors love Jue'er the most!"

The little guy then walked towards Yang Zhengshan staggeringly, and Yang Zhengshan picked him up.

The little guy was very quiet and lay in Yang Zhengshan's arms without saying anything. Yang Zhengshan took out an ice nut and gave it to him.

Ice nuts only have the effect of resisting cold, and children can also eat them, and there is no harm in eating them.

Children cannot eat Sanhuang Li, Yulu Lingtao, etc., because it is too nourishing and children cannot bear it after eating it.

The ice nuts are sweet and crispy. The little guy immediately laughed after taking a bite, and said childishly, "Thank you, ancestor!"

Seeing this, Luo Keqing's nervous mood immediately felt relieved.

She was really afraid that her son would not perform well in front of Yang Zhengshan.

"Haha, so well-behaved!"

Yang Qinyuan was also smiling silly beside him.

Yang Zhengshan looked at the little girl Yang Qingyu again. She was only three months old and was noisy around her, but she had been sleeping soundly.

"Dad, this is Sheng'er, this is Han'er!" Yang Mingcheng ran away and the old man didn't know his great-grandson and quickly introduced.

Yang Chengye has five children, Yang Qinyuan, Yang Ruochen, Yang Qinming, Yang Qinsheng, and Yang Ruohan.

When Yang Zhengshan left Xingyue Island, Yang Qinsheng and Yang Ruohan were still in Chongshan Town, but Yang Zhengshan had been to Chongshan Pass before. Although he had only stayed in Chongshan Pass for one night, he had seen these two children.

"You're just talking too much!" Yang Zhengshan said angrily.

"I have seen Sheng'er and Han'er for a long time."

As he said that, he waved his hand and called his three children over and asked them about their situation in the past three years.

Yang Chengye was not on the island, so their children were raised in Yang Mingcheng's yard.

Yang Qinyuan, who got married, already has his own courtyard and his own small home.

However, Yang Zhengshan didn't ask too much, but just asked a few questions and asked these children to leave.

There are a lot of children behind, and even if each takes only a few minutes, it will probably take two hours to see them all.

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

After meeting the children in the long house, Yang Mingzhi and Li brought a large group of people to pay their respects, then the children in the third house, and finally Zhu took Yang Cheng'an and Yang Wanqi to pay their respects.

Comparing this way, the four rooms will look thin.

"Where is Mingzhao?" Yang Zhengshan asked.

"Uh, my husband has gone out for a trip!" Zhu said nervously.

"Traveling? Haven't come back?"

"No, I came back half a year ago!" Zhu replied quickly.

Yang Zhengshan frowned and looked at Yang Mingcheng. Yang Mingcheng said embarrassedly: "I have been traveling outside for the past two years and I will come back to stay for a month or two every year!"

"You don't know where he went?" Yang Zhengshan asked.

Yang Mingcheng said, "I know that he is in Darong, and he always comes ashore from Songhe Mansion."

Yang Zhengshan thought for a while, "What is this kid doing?"

He would never have thought that Yang Mingzhao was a rebel. In his impression, Yang Mingzhao has always been very well-behaved and has been relatively steady when he grew up. He is not a person who likes to make trouble.

He would not doubt that Yang Mingzhao was messing around outside, but he just thought that Yang Mingzhao had found something interesting.

Yang Zhengshan does not have many constraints on his descendants. As long as he is not doing anything wrong or practicing without leaving behind, Yang Zhengshan will not stop him from doing anything he likes to do and has a supportive attitude.

The third generation of the Yang family is not a rice insect that only knows how to practice. They each have their own things to do. For example, Yang Chengmao is helping Jiang He in the official office, Yang Chengxian and Yang Chengyou are in the navy, Yang Chengzhang is in the business, and Yang Chengzhen runs away. I went to Zhu's family to learn ironwork for a few years, and now I open a blacksmith shop on the island, and I lifted ironwork all day long.

There is also Yang Chengyu, this kid is now engaging in Wang Mingzhe, and Yang Qinyong is also learning to refine alchemy.

As for Yang Qinyuan, this kid is farming, and he is responsible for managing the medicinal fields on the island, and he is studying the cultivation of precious medicines all day long.

Yang Zhengshan never cares about these things. Everyone has their own favorite things to do. As long as they are interested, Yang Zhengshan is willing to support them.

As for the industry's high and low status, it has no impact on the Yang family, because the Yang family is fundamentally martial arts. They are first of all martial artists, and then other professions.

"Try to contact him. If you can contact him, get him back as soon as possible!"

"The children at home don't care about it, they're like staying outside all the time!"

Yang Zhengshan said.

He was somewhat suspicious whether this kid had settled down outside and found a wife?

What if this kid came back with a woman and two children in a few years?

Thinking of that scene, Yang Zhengshan couldn't help but twitch his eyes.

The Yang family has a rule not to take concubines, and Zhu is Zhu Changxing's granddaughter. If this gets out of hand.

Damn, my own son, I can't really break his legs!

But this matter can't be said in front of Zhu, let's find this kid first.

Zhu didn't know what Yang Zhengshan was thinking. When she heard Yang Zhengshan say this, she immediately showed a look of joy on her face.

"Yes, I'll give the order right away!" Yang Mingcheng responded quickly.

Yang Zhengshan nodded slightly and talked to Yang Chengan and Yang Wanqi.

Yu Qingyi, who was standing next to him, looked at her grandson and granddaughter, and was so happy that she took out various gifts one by one. Although they were all worthless gadgets, they were enough to show her love for her grandson and granddaughter.

After getting close to his grandson and granddaughter for a while, Yang Zhengshan asked Zhu to take them home.

Since they were back, there was no need to rush, as there were many people to meet later.

A moment later, Jiang He and Yang Yunyan came with their children. The Jiang family had many children. Jiang He had two sons and a daughter. The youngest son, Jiang Feng, was already 25 or 26 years old this year and had already married and had children.

After meeting Jiang He and Yang Yunyan, Yang Zhengshan and Yu Qingyi met several grandsons-in-law who lived on Xingyue Island.

Yang Wanyi and Wu Haiyang, Yang Wanning and Han Zhangze, Yang Wanyu and Wu Wanshan, Liang Qingqing and Han Zhe, although they were all married, they all lived on Xingyue Island.

Liang Qingqing is Yang Yunxue's youngest daughter, and Han Zhe is Han Cheng's grandson, that is, Han Fei's son. This marriage was arranged by Yang Yunyan.

Han Zhe was sent to the island at the age of thirteen. Yang Yunyan thought that this boy was good, so she wanted to find him a wife.

At that time, the girls of the Yang family were either engaged or not old enough. Yang Yunyan thought of Liang Qingqing, so she wrote a letter to Yang Yunxue to discuss this matter.

Later, the marriage of the two was settled, and Liang Qingqing married Han Zhe and stayed on Xingyue Island.

After meeting all the members of the Yang family, the sky darkened.

Yang Zhengshan did not hold a family banquet. There was no way. There were too many people and the yard could not accommodate them.

And the New Year will be in two days, and they can get together to have a New Year's Eve dinner.

The next day, Yang Zhengshan met Luo Shang, Zhen Yang, Xie Yuan and Han Cheng again.

Xie Yuan and Han Cheng have both resigned from their official positions and are now living in Xingyue Island.

Han Cheng's position in Tenglong Guard was taken over by Xie Linxuan, who is the son of Xie Yuan.

Tenglong Four Guards is already a close-knit group, firmly controlled by Yu Tonghai, Han Cheng, Wu Chongzhe, Zhang Yuanwu, Xue Ping and Xie Yuan. Not to mention outsiders, even the court cannot interfere.

Now Xie Yuan, Han Cheng, Zhang Yuanwu and Wu Chongzhe are all old. They have decided to come to Xingyue Island to retire after training their successors.

Yu Tonghai is already a congenital warrior, he can continue to be in charge of Tenglong Guard. Xue Ping is still young, and it is estimated that after Yu Tonghai steps down, he will take over.

Six families, four guard commanders' positions, it seems that there is not enough to be divided, but in fact there is no need to divide them, because the interests of Tenglong Four Guards are not official positions, but the profits brought by sea trade.

Although the positions of the four commanders are important, the profits from sea trade are more important.

They had already agreed on the profits, so as long as the six families occupied the four positions, it didn't matter which family occupied them.

Of course, all this was based on the premise that there would be no internal fighting.

And the existence of the Yang family just happened to curb their internal fighting.

On the last day of this month, I'm asking for a wave of monthly tickets
