Chapter 225: Chapter 20: Prosperity! The Rise and Transformation of the Wang Family_2
The old man spoken in a serious tone, “This is the intention of Ancestor Zhou Bo. If you have any dissatisfaction with it, you can co to him after I am back.”
“Since it is the intention of Ancestor Zhou Bo, how can I dare to speak against his wish.” Wang Shouyue quickly recanted his previous words then continued, “I am curious as I have never heard that we, the Wang family, have relatives living in Ping’an Town located in Changning County? Does Grandpa Third know about this?”
“Shouyue, you are still young, so it’s reasonable that you do not know. Our relationship with the Ping’an Wang Clan has been rare for the past twenty to thirty years,” said the old man, lost montarily in his past, “The founder of the Ping’an Wang Clan is nad Wang Zhuxuan. We, of this generation, all call him Ancestor Zhuxuan. He is a brother of Ancestor Zhou Bo and was an exceptionally talented and outstanding figure in our Wang Clan of Longzuo.”
“At the ti, our Wang Clan was facing difficult circumstances and only had the resources to cultivate a HeavenRealm individual,” spoke the old man with a hint of reverence, “Therefore Ancestor Zhuxuan left by himself to establish the collateral branch of the Ping’an Wang Clan. He truly was a man of exceptional talent and a heroic figure. Such a pity…”
“As recent years have passed, so correspondences resud between the two clans. Therefore, Ancestor Zhou Bo instructed to visit the Ping’an Wang Clan while I am out attending to other matters.”
“Ancestor Zhou Bo is really considerate of old friendships.” Wang Shouyue curiously remarked, “Looking at it, Grandpa Third has brought a lot of things with him. Are many of them gifts for the Ping’an Wang Clan?”
“They are all primary cultivation resources such as Spirit Rice, Spirit at, Little Pei Yuan Dan,” said the old man, “The most valuable is a Creation Pill, allegedly given by Ancestor Zhou Bo specifically for his grandniece Wang Longyan to recover from her injuries. If we discuss the Ping’an Wang Clan’s Ancestor Longyan, she is indeed an extraordinarily talented person.”
“When I was still young, the Ancestor Longyan had already beco a core disciple of the Purple Abode Academic Palace. I heard that when she first entered the Academic Palace, she often visited our Wang clan in Longzuo, and sotis stayed for a while. Even Ancestor Zhou Bo was very fond of her,” expressed the old man with a gloomy look,” Unfortunately, the Ping’an Wang Clan ran into so troubles later…Sigh…”
Speaking of past events, the old man sighed with regret and lanted that if not for the subsequent misfortune, the Ping’an Wang Clan might be the dominant force in Changning today.
“Regardless, they are now just a downtrodden minor clan.” said Wang Shouyue, seemingly indifferent, “Ancestor Zhou Bo is indeed generous. The resources he is gifting this ti would amount to almost two thousand Qian Golds when sumd up, right? Fortunately, our Wang Clan of Longzuo has made much money in recent years, otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to afford such a gift.”
“We are all part of the Wang family, so it’s only right that we help each other.” The old man spoke, “When our Wang family in Longzuo was struggling, Ancestor Zhuxuan had made quite a lot of money during his initial developnt in Ping’an Town and tried to supplent the resources Ancestor Zhou Bo needed to break into the Heavenly Human Realm. I guess Ancestor Zhou Bo just wants to give as much support as he can. After all, the Ping’an Wang Clan is not living in good tis now.”
“This ferry is moving way too slowly?” Wang Shouyue showed so signs of restlessness. Looking at the river with no sign of the ferry in view, he complained, “We have to quickly fulfill Ancestor Zhou Bo’s wish and get to Donghaei as soon as possible. I have been dying to et the rumored Young Masters Chen and Dantai from the Eastern Sea Combined Business Line.”
“You always have been too impatient.” The old man shook his head disapprovingly. But even as he brought up the nas of Young Master Chen and Young Master Dantai, his eyes shone with a hint of admiration,” Two years ago in Cloud Security, through our connections, we managed to obtain a procurent quota for cent, foreign glass, and foreign paper from Young Master Dantai. We then opened up trade routes and painstakingly transported them back to Longzuo County. These past two years, we have made a good amount of money.”
“It is the wish of our Ancestor for us to further deepen our relationship with Young Master Dantai,” said the old man thoughtfully, “Also through connections, I learned that Young Master Chen is even more extraordinary. I have made inquiries. The main shareholder of the East Sea Combined Business Line is actually a family called the Donggang Chen Clan. They control the overseas trade ships and routes, and Young Master Chen from their clan is the real person in charge.”
“Being so young and getting so much trust from the family, he must be quite extraordinary,” mused Wang Shouyue, his face suddenly becoming serious, “I heard from Grandpa before that Young Master Chen, who is only in his thirties, is now in the ninth stage of Qi Refinent Realm. He is just slightly inferior to who is of the Heavenly Human Direct Lineage and indeed worth making friends with.”
“The most powerful ancestor of the Donggang Chen Clan, who holds the Three Spirit Platforms, is said to be near to breaking into the Heavenly Human Realm. The future prospects are limitless. So do not underestimate Young Master Chen.”
“I definitely won’t,” asserted Wang Shouyue confidently, “The family sent with Grandpa so that I can show off the strength and foundation of our Wang Clan of Longzuo, with the intention to exchange friendship and hopefully obtain a greater share of foreign goods in the future. I, Wang Shouyue, will not go against the family’s plans.”
Only then did the old man nod with satisfaction. Speaking of Wang Shouyue, the family did place high hopes on him.
Ancestor Zhou Bo spared no resources to improve him from a Lower Class A talent to a Middle-grade, Fourth Rank, and he had already awakened one bloodline before entering the Spiritual Platform Realm.
He was being grood as the successor of the Heavenly Human Realm holder of the family.
“Shouyue, you are doing quite well in this aspect, you are diligent in your cultivation,” praised the old man, “It’s a pity that you will have to oversee the family in the future, otherwise there is a possibility of you striving for the status of core disciple in the Academic Palace.”
Usually, the successors of clans who go to the Academic Palace can only beco external disciples. Once they beco core disciples, it becos hard for them to return and take over the family.
As they continued talking, the ferry arrived.
Changning ferry port was crowded with peddlers, carriages and more by this ti. The ferry was bustling with people going up and down, which made the two from Wang Clan of Longzuo sowhat surprised. Were these many peddlers, Independent Cultivators, and common people all getting on the ferry? Could it be there is a grand festival happening in Ping’an Town?
However, this matter clearly had nothing to do with them. They were here to visit relatives, deliver resources, and convey the care from Ancestor Zhou Bo.
After that, they would need to hurry to Donghaei, to et Young Master Dantai and Young Master Chen Shi.
The hustle and bustle of people boarding the ferry continued until a couple of n from Longzuo Wang Family and carriage was on board. Finally, the chaos seed to settle down.
Amidst a flurry of calls and commands,
the ferry slowly left the shore, and it was soon over two dozen feet away.
Suddenly,
On the dock of Changning’s official crossing,
A young man in blue ran towards the ferry, shouting loudly, “Wait for !”
The ferry suddenly beca noisy.
“Eh, isn’t that the Seventh Prince?” “It’s the Seventh Prince! Boat captain, quickly stop the boat!”
“The Seventh Prince? Could it be the rumored Seventh Prince?”
“Nonsense, who else could be referred to as the Seventh Prince in this area?”
“Boatman, boatman, stop the boat for a mont, wait for the Seventh Prince,” the boat captain too hurriedly shouted.
Then the ferry beca a scene of bustling activity as the boatn were working frantically to turn the boat around.
But the boat had already departed from the shore, and at that mont, it swayed towards the open water, and soon was already over seven or eight dozen feet away from the shore.
Seeing the situation, Wang Shouyue couldn’t help but frown. The Seventh Prince was acting quite high and mighty.
Wasn’t this delaying his journey?
Suddenly,
The young man in blue, after sprinting to the dock, took a light step, causing his body to flutter in the air like a willow catkin, covering a distance of eight or nine dozen feet, before finally landing steadily on the ferry.
As soon as he landed, he gracefully bowed and apologized: “Everyone, sorry for the delay, it is my fault.”
“Willow Catkin Body thod? Wang Shouye?” Wang Shouyue was taken aback. Wasn’t that the middle-rank movent technique of the Longzuo Wang family, the Willow Catkin Body thod?
Right, apart from the Longzuo Wang Family, the Ping’an Wang Family also had this movent thod.
This young man in blue, nad Wang Shouye, indeed had a splendid movent technique.
He seed to be only eighteen or nineteen years old, yet had such proficiency with the Willow Catkin Body thod. Moreover, his cultivation base appears to be on the verge of reaching the Seventh Level of the Qi Refinent Realm.
This young and remarkable individual, Wang Shouye, looked like a seedling of the Spiritual Platform Realm.
Could it be that he is from the Ping’an Wang Family, being grood as the successor of the direct lineage?
The old man and Wang Shouyue exchange glances, both secretly speculating.
