Chapter Seventy-Five Talking Confidentially
A dull atmosphere enveloped the entire meeting hall. The great elder did not agree with Hong Zheng's point of view, so there was no room for discussion.
After a long time, Hong Zheng seemed to have hardened his heart, gritted his teeth, as if cutting off a piece of flesh from his body, took out the hot jade stone, looked at the great elder and said: "Great elder, there are twenty thousand gold coins here.
, all handed over by Amon. You take it to the auction, spend 10,000 gold coins to buy some auxiliary medicinal materials for taking the Qi Deficiency Pill, and leave the remaining 10,000 gold coins to Hong Tong for his wedding. What do you think?"
When the great elder heard this, his dark pupils suddenly shrank, and two rays of light overflowed out. He stroked his beard with one hand, but did not pick up the heavy jade stone. He pretended to be calm and said: "I have no objection to Hong Tong's matter.
.I don’t have any problem with the medicinal materials. I just can’t leave Qi Deficiency Pill to this kid.”
"Damn, you have taken advantage of such a huge advantage, what else do you want?" Hong Meng cursed in his heart, his face was already full of anger, like an angry lion.
This elder is so ungrateful. He allows you to buy medicinal materials in the name of the clan leader, but in fact he is 'subsidizing' you. Are you so stupid that you can't even see this benefit?
Uncle Tong also understood what the patriarch meant, so he covered his mouth with his hands, coughed a few times, and said in a naive voice: "Great Elder, the patriarch has worked hard for the clan for many years, and specially gave you a reward. We want such good things,
The patriarch is still unwilling!"
Hong Zheng could no longer hide the anger in his heart. With a cold snort, he took back the jade stone and sat on the chair. He didn't say a word and allowed the great elder to make trouble. Moreover, he couldn't explain the crisis in the clan to the great elder, otherwise
This guy will definitely take the opportunity to cause chaos and seek the position of clan leader.
Seeing such a scene, Hong Meng was helpless. He wanted to take this opportunity to get a Qi Deficiency Pill for later use, but the stubborn donkey of the Great Elder did not agree. "Since the Great Elder has a prejudice against ego, it is better to eliminate it."
After the misunderstanding, I will make further plans and temporarily seal the warehouse for emergencies."
"I think this will be the case for the time being. If the Great Elder still disagrees, then we really can't agree on anything."
Hong Zheng didn't want to keep a Qi Deficiency Pill. Maybe the Great Elder would take the Qi Deficiency Pill away when he made a fuss at some point. But at the moment, he had no better way, so he could only snort, expressing his extreme dissatisfaction with the Great Elder.
The great elder stroked his beard and became even more proud when he saw everyone compromising: "I'm afraid that if the elixir is kept for a long time, it will get bugs!"
"Crack!" "Crack!"
Hong Zheng could no longer bear the anger in his heart, and immediately slapped the table hard, knocking the teacup on the table far away, and fell to the ground with a crash. "Hong Ju, what do you want to do? What do you want?
Is this the position of patriarch?"
"Clan leader, calm down and talk about what you have to say. Elder, what you said is indeed too much. Apologize quickly!" Uncle Tong advised Hong Zheng while glaring at the elder with a straight face, insisting that the elder should apologize. Look.
In that posture, if the great elder refused, he would definitely hold the great elder and kneel in front of the clan leader.
"The Great Elder's words are wrong. You don't agree with any of them, so what should you do with the remaining one?"
Hong Meng grabbed the overly impulsive Uncle Tong, stopped him in front of his colleagues, and said respectfully to the Great Elder. Anyone who heard the Great Elder's words would find it difficult to remain calm. What's more, as the clan leader, Hong was very concerned about face.
Where is Zheng?
The Great Elder's face remained calm and his heart did not beat. He glanced at Hong Meng with contempt and said seriously: "There is a person who has already entered the Xuan Qi realm. Why doesn't the clan leader give him a chance to rise to prominence?"
Thinking about it in his mind, the Great Elder thought that since you, Hong Zheng, won't let me get the last one, then don't let your people get it. Hehe, anyway, Hong Mingming's strength far exceeds that of Hong Meng, so he naturally has a good reputation. To win this
The opportunity is good for him and himself...,
"That guy Hong Mingming? Absolutely not!" As soon as Hong Meng heard what the great elder said, he understood that the person who entered the Xuan Qi realm was none other than Hong Mingming. This sworn enemy could not let him get the Qi Deficiency Pill no matter what.
"Wishful thinking!" Hong Zheng shouted angrily, waving his hand, hinting to the elder: "Let's just deal with this matter, and ignore any further opinions!"
The Great Elder wanted to say something more, but he saw Uncle Tong and Hong Meng watching from the side. If there were any outrageous words again, Uncle Tong might really rush up and start a fight. Thinking of the blood background of that reckless man, the Great Elder couldn't help but
I shivered for a while, and then looked at Uncle Tong's eyes with a little fear.
"Leave the jade to you first. If you don't do anything good, don't come back to see me!" Throwing the jade in the air, it happened to fall into the hands of the great elder. Hong Zheng was indeed angry, not only because of the arrogance of the great elder this time, but also because of the elder's arrogance.
It was the accumulation of many years of constant fighting between the two, but it completely broke out at this moment.
The great elder was rubbing the jade stone, feeling extremely excited. Thinking about the deposit of 20,000 gold coins, his whole body was trembling. That was a fortune that could revitalize a small family. He was really happy to get this. But once
Thinking of leaving 10,000 gold coins as financial resources for Hong Tong's reckless man to hold weddings, I couldn't help but feel a pang of pain.
Holding a few strands of his beard, the elder walked away with a mixture of joy and regret, and the muscles on his face twitched twice for no apparent reason.
It wasn't until the Great Elder left that Hong Zheng took a long breath and sighed: "Finally, the Clay Bodhisattva is sent away."
"Huh? What do you mean, patriarch?" Hong Meng frowned when he heard this, and at the same time moved away, no longer blocking Uncle Tong.
"The reason why he is called Bodhisattva is because his wife is from the Xiao family. Although the Xiao family is small, we don't dare to mess with it. Now that the Qingluo family is fighting, I guess they will also suffer. And the eldest elder still thinks
Holding the Xiao family's sign and dominating others is not a clay Buddha, what is it?"
Hong Zheng spoke as if he knew the elder and the entire Xiao family very well. However, the worry on his face has not faded.
"It makes sense!" Uncle Tong shouted excitedly.
Hong Meng smiled and then understood why Xiao Yao was so generous and would directly give some medicinal materials to the elder. It seems that although the Xiao family is not as strong as the Qingluo family, it is not weak either.
"Clan leader, I have one more thing. Now that my mother has returned to the clan, what should we do with Hongjia Town?" It suddenly occurred to me that Hongjia Town is still unattended. If we don't send people there, I'm afraid those evil thieves will come back to harass us.
People. And it would be better if you can send important people from the family there. Once something happens there, the Hong family will definitely send people to solve it.
"Oh? That's a problem." Hong Zheng walked a few steps in the meeting hall and couldn't think of a suitable candidate for a while. The great elder's people would definitely not be available, and he didn't have many people. Suddenly, Hong Zheng's eyes flashed.
Liang said, "Hong Tong, I wonder how Mr. Hong is doing now? If he doesn't dislike it, I can hand over Hongjia Town to him."
"Okay, I'll ask when I get back." Uncle Tong agreed, with a look of confusion on his face, as if he was hiding something.
"Who is Mr. Hong?" Hong Meng didn't know whether he should ask, but from several conversations between the patriarch and Uncle Tong, he vaguely felt that the two people must have a secret, but he was unwilling to reveal it. Then Uncle Tong
He has a loyal face and an innocent look, and I really don't dare to make people doubt him.
Without waiting for Uncle Tong to answer, the clan leader rushed to answer: "That is an old servant of your Uncle Tong. Now that he is old and weak, he has done a lot for the clan, so he let him go. Hong Meng, aren't you still attached to him?"
Where is it? If you really can't bear to leave it, forget it, I'll send people to seal it up and build a new compound."
"The attachment is still there, but there's no need to go to such trouble and just let them live." Hong Meng naturally cannot forget his childhood days in his heart. It was a time when he was wandering and ignorant, and he couldn't bear to look back...,
Several people chatted for a while, but they all felt sleepy. So many things happened in one day, and they couldn't hold it anymore.
After that, Hong Zheng seemed to have concluded: "Today we have four major things to discuss. The first one is the big fight between the Qingluo family. As a small family, we naturally have to be cautious and don't get caught by them.
Hold on to the handle. The second thing is the matter of the 20,000 gold coins. I have to thank you, Hong Meng, for this. The third thing
, is the matter of the distribution of Qi Deficiency Pills. Although it has not been completely resolved, it has come to an end. The fourth thing is that your Uncle Tong is very happy. Haha, ten thousand gold coins is not a small amount. The fifth thing is the matter in Hongjia Town.
, leave this matter to Hong Tong. The sixth thing is, everyone is tired? Then the sixth thing is to adjourn the meeting."
Said, Hong Zheng looked at the two of them with a smile, and then all three of them burst into laughter, and their temporary depression disappeared without a trace.
The big meeting of the three-person team finally ended. Hong Meng was reluctant to part with the Spirit Gathering Cauldron and wanted to take it back, but Hong Zheng was like a child, hugging him and refusing to let go: "The day we promised has not come yet.
!”
Hong Meng was speechless, so he left with Uncle Tong. On the way, he remembered the mysterious appearance of Uncle Tong and the two of them, and not only asked: "Uncle Tong, Mr. Hong, who are you? How should I call you?"
Uncle Tong didn't expect Hong Meng to ask such a question. He scratched his head and looked confused: "Ahem, this - I don't know, he is just a servant, there is no special relationship."
Hong Meng said oh, but there was one more thing he didn't understand. Hong Meng suddenly stopped in front of Uncle Tong and insisted on Uncle Tong's reply: "Uncle Tong, you and aunt, hehe, my sudden appearance
Auntie, what happened to your married wife?"
Uncle Tong never expected that Hong Meng would be involved in this matter, and he became even more embarrassed: "Young kid, why are you asking so many questions?"
"Since we have already tied our hair, why are we holding the wedding now? Could it be that Uncle Tong, you guys are already - that?" As he said that, Hong Meng winked at Uncle Tong with a smirk on his face.
"Cough, cough, I feel a little uncomfortable, so I'm going back first." Uncle Tong's face turned red and he felt embarrassed. As he spoke, he pushed Hong Meng away and flew away.
Watching Uncle Tong leave, Hong Meng felt that Uncle Tong was not as simple as he looked. Otherwise, why would the patriarch spend 10,000 gold coins to hold a wedding for him? What is even more shocking is that the elder, who has always had disagreements with the patriarch,
It's really strange that he has no opinion on this matter.
