Chapter 1103: Feudalism is all dregs
The news of the death and the news of Lei Zhen's massacre of the Guo family reached each family almost at the same time. When these families faced these two pieces of news, they immediately realized that the new emperor had taken action.
If you don't take action, it's fine. But if you take action, you will become a big family.
Moreover, the Guo family’s vassal status was just announced yesterday, but they did it today.
Each family has its own speculations and preparations. Some are wondering what Lei Zhen will do next, while others are considering how to deal with the subsequent changes.
But no matter what you think, you have to keep it in mind for the time being.
We must go to the Guo family now. The Public Opinion Research Bureau has formed a funeral committee. Mr. Lei is also at the Guo family, personally supervising the funeral and sending Guo Tianlin off properly.
They had to go and find out, so the heads of each family set off immediately.
There is no need to worry about safety issues. All the family leaders will be there and no one will attack them.
The Lu family in Northeast China also received the news, and the helmsman Lu Xiaoqi called Old Man Jiang to ask for his opinion.
"Brother Jiang, I received a report of the Guo family's death. Should I go or not?"
"Of course you have to go. Not only do you have to go, you have to go openly."
"I'm afraid something might happen."
"All the clan leaders are here. Lei Zhen wouldn't dare to do that unless he wants everyone to rebel."
"Are you sure?"
"Sure!"
After getting the affirmation, Lu Xiaoqi also rushed to the northwest. Even though he was a rebel, he had nothing to fear as he controlled the entire Northeast.
If we want to hold someone accountable, we can find a few excuses to shut Lei Zhen up.
After hanging up the phone, Old Man Jiang's face was gloomy.
He never dreamed that Lei Zhen would do it so easily. There was no trace of the massacre of the Guo family before, and it was just slaughtered so suddenly.
There were thousands of people, most of them young people, and in the end only less than a thousand were left.
"If you want to kill them all, just kill them. Why leave so many people behind? Aren't you just giving people an opportunity, you idiot!" Old man Jiang muttered to himself.
If you don't remove the roots of the grass, it will grow again in the spring breeze.
He felt that Lei Zhen's work was not thorough enough, and this lack of thoroughness would give him enough material to write about, and Guo Tianlin's memorial service was the best opportunity.
…
At the Guo Mansion, the funeral is in progress.
It has been three days since Guo Tianlin's death. His body was taken directly to the crematorium and burned, and an urn was brought back.
The venue for the memorial service has been set up, and we are waiting for families to come and pay their respects.
Guo Tianyang came back and knelt cautiously in front of Lei Zhen, not daring to breathe.
Because the other party almost massacred everyone in Guojia Village, but refused to change his name or surname, and stayed in Guo's mansion after the massacre.
Who will he slaughter next?
I don't know, but it's scary.
The normal logic is to kill someone and then leave. If you don’t leave, you will definitely kill more people.
"Tianyang, you must seize the transition period and make sure to stabilize the Guo family's situation." Lei Zhen said as he wiped his gun. "What will happen in the end depends on you."
"Yes, Mr. Lei." Guo Tianyang nodded vigorously.
Seeing him like this, Lei Zhen laughed.
"Okay, stop kneeling. I know some things are not up to you to decide, but you will be able to decide them in the future."
"Several old men in Guojia Village are dead. I was helping you understand the truth so that you can control the entire Guo family. So I understand what happened the day before yesterday. That was definitely not what you wanted."
The day before yesterday, the Guo family placed Lei Zhen under house arrest, but they couldn't find Guo Tianyang.
He gave enough understanding on this matter.
"Mr. Lei..."
"No need to explain, I understand." Lei Zhen said earnestly, "Although I'm young, I've experienced some ups and downs, and I'm quite good at judging people and things. You don't want to put me under house arrest, and you don't want to listen to those old guys. Because if you listen to them, the position of the head of the Guo family may not be yours."
These words really touched Guo Tianyang's heart, because the old guys didn't need him to take over the transition at all. They just wanted to directly promote the eldest young master to the position, which meant that he had no role to play.
Once ambition is aroused, it is difficult to suppress it.
So Guo Tianyang's temporary departure was not his idea at all, but the idea of these old guys.
It's rare for Mr. Lei to understand, and I really don't know what to say.
"Mr. Lei, I'm glad you understand!" Guo Tianyang's eyes were full of gratitude.
"Haha, I just said that I'm quite accurate in judging people and things." Lei Zhen laughed and said, "The obstacles have been cleared for you. You need to take over not only the Guo Mansion, but also Guo Village."
Guojia Village is the foundation and Guo Mansion is the family.
The two look similar, but there are big differences.
The so-called Guo Mansion is actually a branch of Guojia Village. It belongs to a family that is exposed to the outside world, and behind it is Guojia Village.
On ordinary days, Guojia Village would not interfere in the affairs of the Guo Mansion, but under special circumstances they would step in, headed by a few so-called family elders, who could appoint and dismiss the clan leader.
However, the Guo Mansion represents the Guo family, and many times Guojia Village has to follow their wishes, which is a kind of mutual restraint.
This is also the cleverness of the Guo family. Only when conflicts arise can the family go further.
If one person has the final say, it will easily lead to the decline of the family, so this mechanism has been specially established.
But whether it is Guojia Village or Guo Mansion, they all belong to the Guo family, even if the Guo Mansion holds the dominant position.
"Okay, if you have nothing else to do, go ahead and get busy. The people in Guo Village still need you to appease them. People from various families coming to pay their respects will be arriving soon, and they all need to be entertained."
"Yes, Mr. Lei."
Guo Tianyang nodded, but still knelt on the ground and did not leave.
"Anything else?" Lei Zhen asked.
"Mr. Lei, I have a small request. I don't know whether I should say it or not?" Guo Tianyang's eyes were full of hope.
"Just say it if you have something to say, haha." Lei Zhen laughed, "There's nothing you can't say in front of me. I'll need your support in the future."
"I'm already very satisfied to be able to do something for you, sir... Sir, I see that you don't even have someone to serve you tea or water on a daily basis, so I want my daughter to take care of your daily life."
Is this a gift?
Guo Tianyang is a smart man!
"Is it appropriate?" Lei Zhen frowned.
"Of course it's suitable!" Guo Tianyang said quickly, "My daughter just turned 18 this year, but she has no interest in studying. Fortunately, she is smart and well-behaved. It would be better to let her stay with you and gain some experience. I just don't know if she is qualified."
"this?"
Lei Zhen was in such a dilemma that he almost choked with laughter.
But he had to do what he had to do, after all, his character was very decent and he couldn't accept it lightly.
"Sir, this is also my daughter's wish."
"In that case, let her come over."
"Thank you, sir. I'll have my daughter come over right away..."
Smart people do smart things, and Guo Tianyang is a very smart person.
What kind of gift should I give to my daughter in this situation?
Don’t you understand the current situation? The eldest lady is about to come out.
However, Lei Zhen still knew a little bit. The most common method used by these families was marriage, and they often sent their daughters when they encountered problems.
Can the marriage be maintained?
Feudal society kills people, it’s all garbage!
