Chapter 252 Invitation of the Four Families
The five major chambers of commerce have strong financial resources and business all over the world. However, in the City of Warcraft, they were challenged by the four families. The four major families have been operating in Warcraft City for thousands of years, with a deep foundation, and the five major chambers of commerce can compete with them for a while. However, the four major families are all Warcraft businesses, and they rarely get involved in other fields. In addition, the five major chambers of commerce know that they can't compete with the four major families in the Warcraft business, so they focus on other fields. Therefore, in the World of Warcraft City, except for Warcraft, almost all other fields are held by the five major chambers of commerce.
After learning about the power division of Minghu Prefecture from the old housekeeper, Yang Jian had a general understanding of the overall situation here.
"Duke, the City of Warcraft is hit by the Warcraft herd every year. Calculate the time. In less than three months, it will be the next time for Warcraft to attack Warcraft City. The old housekeeper bowed.
"Three months? Well, okay, I wrote it down." Yang Jian nodded, and then waved his hand to let the old housekeeper leave.
"Warcraft City is attacked by the Warcraft tide every year, but this is also an opportunity. If you repel the army of Warcraft, you can make a fortune. Yang Jian said secretly in his heart.
The corpses of monsters are more valuable than the corpses of ordinary monsters, otherwise they would not attract so many adventurers.
The day after coming to Minghu City, Yang Jian received an invitation.
"The four families held a banquet in the Mingyue Building to pick up the dust for the Duke, and also asked the Duke to enjoy his face." A beautiful little Si, who was dressed very well-dressed, bowed and handed out an invitation. An eighteen- or nineteen-year-old maid took the invitation and handed it to Yang Jian.
Yang Jian took a look at the invitation casually, then put the invitation aside and said, "Go back and report it to your master. I will definitely be there."
"Thank you, Duke, goodbye." Xiao Si bowed and left.
"It seems that the four families are going to find out what the Duke said." The old housekeeper said with a smile on the side.
"Oh? How do you say this?" Yang Jian looked at the old housekeeper with a little doubt.
"The Duke came here for the first time and didn't know anything. In previous years, the governors of Minghu Prefecture would strongly support the four major families and boycott the five major chambers of commerce. This time, when you come, they are not sure, so they will invite you to the banquet. On the one hand, it is to pick you up the dust, and on the other hand, it is to explore your mouth to see if you will support their four families. The old housekeeper knew the middle way and explained to Yang Jian.
"So it is." Yang Jian nodded with a smile, "What if I don't support their four families?"
"This..." When the old housekeeper heard this, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.
"The Duke doesn't know that every year, the City of Warcraft can defend the attack of the Warcraft army, and the four major families have made great efforts. If you don't support their four families, they will certainly not resist the Warcraft attack as hard as in previous years. At that time, I'm afraid..." The old housekeeper said this and didn't say more.
"Did those governors support the four major families in the past?" Yang Jian frowned slightly.
"In previous years, there were also some governors who were unwilling to support the four families, but they eventually died in the war against the attack of Warcraft, and Warcraft City was almost defeated by the Warcraft army several times."
"What a four-family." Yang Jian's eyes flashed coldly, "It seems that they are also going to use the attack of the Warcraft army to force me to submit this time?"
"Go down." Yang Jian waved his hand and motioned the old housekeeper to leave.
"The four major families are sitting in Minghu Prefecture and are used to being arrogant and domineering. This time I come, they will probably have to do it again." Yang Jian sat on the master's chair and sneered in his heart.
At sunset, Yang Jian drove to the Mingyue Building in Minghu City. Mingyue Building is the largest restaurant in Minghu City, and it is also the property of the Jiang family, one of the four major families.
In front of the Mingyue Building, four energetic old men bowed and saluted Yang Jian.
"I've met the Duke."
"The four elders are so polite. How dare Yang Jian accept this big gift?" Yang Jian responded with his fist in his arms.
These four old men are the heads of the four major families in Minghu Prefecture, and they are powerful figures on one side.
"I've heard the name of the Duke for a long time. I can see it today. It's really a young hero, a dragon and phoenix among people." The owner of the Jiang family laughed. The owner of the Jiang family is an old man in his fifties. He has gray hair, wears brocade clothes, and has a natural momentum.
"The owner of Jiang has been praised." Yang Jian smiled.
"Okay, let's not stand outside. Inside, please." The owner of the Wang family smiled and made a gesture of invitation. The owner of the Wang family is about 60 years old, slightly fat, with a big round face, and looks amiable.
Surrounded by the four masters, Yang Jian stepped into the Mingyue Building. The decoration in the Mingyue Building is extremely luxurious, and the divine lamp is bright and radiant. Yang Jian was invited to the elegant room on the second floor, and then the guest was seated.
"Duke, this is the child Jiang Shan. I have heard the name of the Duke for a long time, and I have to follow the Duke's spirit. I had no choice but to bring him here. The owner of the Jiang family pointed to a teenager behind him.
"Why don't you meet the Duke soon?" The owner of the Jiang family deliberately said in a low voice.
"Jiang Shan has met the Duke." The teenager bowed and saluted.
This teenager looks only eighteen or nineteen years old, with beautiful eyebrows, well-proportioned figure, and an extremely elegant and free temperament.
"It turned out that he was the beloved son of the owner of Jiang, and he was indeed a talented person." Yang Jian nodded with a smile.
Jiang Shan retreated behind the owner of the Jiang family and was extremely respectful.
After a politeness, the owners of the four major families looked at each other without a trace. After that, the owner of the Xue family smiled and picked up the wine glass in his hand.
"I think the Duke knows that in less than three months, this year's Warcraft army will attack the City of Warcraft. I wonder if the Duke has thought of a way to retreat the enemy?"
The head of the Xue family is as thin as firewood, with an old face. He is the oldest of the four masters. He stood up and asked with a smile.
"The Warcraft army attacks Warcraft City every year, but as far as I know, the wall of Warcraft City is tall and thick, and it is a strong city, and the Warcraft army has never attacked the city. I don't think I can attack this time. Yang Jian said with a smile.
Hearing Yang Jian's answer, the four masters changed slightly. When Yang Jian said this, he did not mention the credit of the four major families at all. Obviously, it was a deep meaning. The four masters are well-scheming, and naturally they can hear what Yang Jian means.
"The Duke said it." There was no change in the face of the head of the Xue family. He smiled and said, "However, as far as I know, this time the Warcraft army will be different from the past."
"Oh? What's the difference?" Yang Jian put down the wine glass in his hand and asked.
"As far as I know, there has been an unknown change in the Warcraft Mountain this time, which will double the Warcraft that will attack Warcraft City this time!" Before the owner of the Xue family opened his mouth, the owner of the Zheng family took a sip of Chinese wine and said seriously.
"Double Warcraft? It seems that they are not good this time. Yang Jian said at all, "There are four masters, and I believe that no matter how many monsters there are, it is useless."
"The Duke laughed. In the face of a large number of monsters, there is nothing we can do." The owner of the Xue family said with a wry smile.
"Hehe, the four of you can rest assured that they came up with a way to solve the Warcraft crisis in Minghu Prefecture in the future. Therefore, the four owners can safely do your business. Yang Jian took a look at the four masters and said with a smile.
"This..." The face of the four masters changed again. When Yang Jian said this, he made it clear his attitude: I can still resist the attack of the Warcraft army without your four families!
"Well, I wish the Duke a victory in advance, and the horse will succeed!" The four masters smiled and raised their glasses at the same time.
The banquet lasted until late at night, and Yang Jian finally left under the escort of a group of guards.
"Brother Xue, it seems that our new governor is a little unusual." After Yang Jian left, the head of the Jiang family sneered.
"Hmm, it's just a hairy boy. Although it is the holy body of battle, it is still too young. If you don't know the depth of heaven and earth, you will definitely suffer great losses. The owner of the Xue family shook his head and smiled.
"Without the support of our four families, wait until the Warcraft army is killed and see how he responds!" The smile on the face of the owner of the Wang family also disappeared, replaced by a gloomy face.
"It's a pity that the famous holy body is going to be buried in this small Warcraft city. It's a pity." The head of the Zheng family also shook his head and smiled.
