One of the five major families in Qingyang City, the Jiang family.
Mr. Jiang is fifty-six years old this year and has eight children, six boys and two girls. Compared with the Qin family, which has only one child, the Jiang family is considered to be very prosperous.
However, a dragon gives birth to nine sons, and each son is different. Although Master Jiang is not a dragon, the children born to his wives and concubines are naturally very different from each other.
The eldest brother likes to do business, the second brother likes to take imperial examinations, the third brother is obsessed with music, chess, calligraphy and painting, the fourth brother is a playboy who lives a life of luxury every day, and the fifth brother is a rough man with great natural strength. Master Jiang sent him directly to the provincial capital and spent money to get him a position as an official or soldier.
The sixth and eighth daughters are both girls, currently waiting to be married and have not yet married.
Although some of these children are positive and some are decadent, they are all normal children. The only one that makes Mr. Jiang very entangled is his seventh son.
Jiang Taicang.
The child weighed only 4.5 jin when he was born and did not start talking until he was three years old. He does not like to communicate with others and has a very withdrawn personality.
Master Jiang had tested him many times, such as asking him to learn music, chess, calligraphy and painting with his third brother, to study in a private school with his second brother, or to do business with his eldest brother. At worst, he asked his fourth brother to take him somewhere to drink and have fun.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Taicang had no interest at all. The only thing he would do on weekdays was to lock himself in the room, and no one knew what he was doing in there.
As time went on, even his brothers and sisters disliked him, and the relationships among family members gradually became distant.
But no one knows that Jiang Taicang actually has a shocking secret...
"Wang Ba is dead?" Jiang Taicang asked in disbelief to two passing servants while standing at the door of the room.
Just a few breaths ago, he heard the words "The leader of the Tiger Gang died of poison" from the two people passing by.
"Yes, yes, Seventh Young Master, the news has spread to the teahouses outside." The servant responded helplessly.
Normally, the Seventh Young Master never took the initiative to talk to the servants. Over time, everyone had gotten used to it. So being suddenly stopped and questioned was really uncomfortable.
"Dead? Wang Ba is dead? How is this possible!" Jiang Taicang stood there with a dazed look on his face.
In his memory, Wang Ba would cooperate with Xiao Jiaolong in the future and lead the Tiger Gang and the Dragon Gang to gain the upper hand in the competition for the escort business of the three famous families, forcing the three famous families to join hands to deal with him. Feeling the situation was difficult and weak, Wang Ba would borrow a master and a treasure from the Gold and Silver Pavilion, his backer, to assassinate the members of the three famous families.
This forced the three famous families to finally compromise with the Tiger Gang and the Dragon Gang, selling off most of their businesses and stores at low prices in order to survive. This incident not only allowed the Tiger Gang to rise, but also caused the three famous families to decline, and in the end they were unable to recover and make a comeback.
But now, none of this can happen anymore.
Because once Wang Ba dies, there will be no further events, unless someone comes out and performs all the actions that Wang Ba has performed in Jiang Taicang's memory.
"How could this happen? Things have changed again." Jiang Taicang walked back into the house with a pale face, closed the door and sat on the ground.
This change, which was completely inconsistent with his memory, made him feel inexplicably creepy, as if a hand was secretly fiddling with things that should have happened, causing everything that was happening now to be inconsistent with his memory.
If you place the colored threads in the right place, you can get a gorgeous and beautiful piece of cloth.
If the colored thread is placed in the wrong place, it will end up in a mess.
The future has begun to change slightly, and this is something Jiang Taicang has to admit.
After being stunned for a moment, Jiang Taicang's eyes slowly regained their spirit.
"No matter what, I just need to hurry up and reach the external forging and bone strengthening stage, and then go and snatch those opportunities from the original owner. There's no need for me to stay in Qingyang City any longer. As long as I leave this place, the sky is high and the sea is wide, and I don't believe that even if I'm away from Qingyang City, things will change."
Subconsciously, Jiang Taicang has developed an inexplicable fear towards Qingyang City, his birthplace.
In Qin Yuesheng's words: This place is poisonous, it makes me start to question my life.
…
Qin Yuesheng naturally knew about Wang Ba's death a long time ago, so when Cao Zhengchun told him about it, he did not show much surprise. Instead, he lay on a bamboo chair in the pavilion by the pond, leisurely reading the latest novel.
The pages of this novel were just made, and you can smell the scent of ink when you turn the pages.
"Master, I have followed your instructions and gone to look for the author of this novel."
"What's the result?"
"The other person's pen name is 'Miao Bi Sheng Hua', and she lives in Huangliu Hutong. She's a girl."
"What's your family situation?"
"poverty."
"Hmm?" Qin Yuesheng raised his eyebrows. "Isn't this novel a hot seller in Qingyang City? Why is your family so poor?"
"This girl's parents are both gamblers. They go to the gambling house every day when they get money. Even if they are rich, they can't afford to squander money like this."
"Oh." Qin Yuesheng nodded. "Find some time to discuss a business deal with her. Tell her I'll provide the idea and pay her to write a novel for me."
"yes."
"Also, how's the progress of the thing I asked you to do last time?"
Cao Zhengchun was stunned. "Young Master, are you referring to... hiring someone who can refine pills at a high price?"
"Um."
"There has been no progress so far. These types of extraordinary individuals are extremely rare. Once they appear, they are quickly recruited by major forces at high prices. They are extremely difficult to hire."
