PS: Thanks to book friend Xiaohuang Feiyu for his reward of 10,000 yuan in starting coins

The atmosphere in the Chu family's convention hall was depressed, and Chu Zongguang frowned. What he hated the most was this kind of thing. Chu Xiu knew what he was thinking, but if Chu Sheng and his son really did such a thing, it would be something he would absolutely not tolerate.

Chu Zongguang looked at Chu Sheng and his son and said, "You really did this?"

The second lady stood up and looked aggrieved and said, "Of course not. Others don't believe me. Master, don't you believe me? How could I do that thing that harms the interests of the Chu family? I'm right to sell that batch of ore, but I sold my father."

Chu Zongguang frowned and said, "How could the ore last run to the Li family?"

The second wife said: "My father's opening of the mountain martial arts museum requires a batch of weapons. In the entire Tongzhou Prefecture, only the Li family's weapons are the best. However, the Li family's weapons with more than three turns are directly built in Qingyuan Town, Yan State, which is a treasure. In addition, with my relationship, even if the Li family still has some treasured weapons, they will not sell them to my father.

So my father could only find a way to sell this batch of ore to the Li family, which made the Li family agree to help him forge weapons.

But as a member of the Chu family, even if Ding Kaishan is my father, I will not harm the interests of the Chu family."

As he said that, the second wife took out the silver notes and handed over the 55,000 taels of silver to Chu Zongguang. She said with a grievance: "Fifty-two thousand kilograms of ore, according to the highest market price, it is only 52,000 taels, but there are three thousand taels more here, which is more than the highest price.

Although the ore from my Chu family was sold to Yan State to earn more, this batch of ore was enough for the caravan to go once. I sold it directly to my father. The caravan saved time. Isn’t that good?

Besides, Master, don’t forget that when the Chu family first came to Tongzhou Prefecture, my father helped the Chu family a lot. This was not a meritorious service, so why did he work hard, right?"

Seeing the second wife finishing the show there, Chu Xiu frowned.

It seems that the second wife is not unprepared, and she has made up her excuses.

But no matter how much she makes excuses, she can't change the fact that the ore falls into the hands of the Li family. Couldn't Chu Zongguang choose to turn a blind eye?

But the result was that the elders of the Chu family stopped saying a word after seeing the silver bills. Anyway, the Chu family did not lose money this time.

Chu Zongguang frowned, and the second wife lifted Ding Kaishan out, which really made him a little difficult.

After all, the Chu family was able to gain a smooth foothold in Tongzhou Prefecture, and Ding Kaishan really put in a lot of effort.

Although the Chu family later compensated Ding Kaishan a lot, Chu Zongguang was also a little embarrassed to scold his father-in-law.

So he just snorted coldly and said, "Okay, let's just forget about this matter, Chu Xiu, you don't have to stare at this matter."

After Chu Zongguang finished speaking to Chu Xiu, he turned his gaze to the second wife and said lightly: "And you are the same, don't think I don't know what your idea is.

After all, the Li family and our Chu family are different. Forget about this matter, if you have any involvement with the Li family next time, you must not let it go!”

After saying that, Chu Zongguang let everyone disperse and left directly.

Chu Sheng and his son left suddenly. Before leaving, Chu Sheng showed a proud smile at Chu Xiu, but Chu Xiu still looked expressionless.

The decision Chu Zongguang made today made Chu Xiu urge to curse.

Even if you can fool things like the enemy, the Chu family is like not Chu Zongguang.

After leaving the Chu family mansion, Chu Xiu went back all the way. When Ma Kuo saw Chu Xiu coming back, he asked with a smile: "Young Master Chu, has your father severely punished the mother and son?"

Chu Xiu shook his head, which made Ma Kuo stunned and said in disbelief: "Your father doesn't care about this kind of thing. What exactly did he think?"

Even rough people like Ma Kuo know that what Chu Sheng and his son do is a taboo.

Internal fighting is OK, let alone small families like the Chu family, the top major families in the world are even more ruthless. Almost every generation of heirs, except for some of them who can crush others, otherwise they will be bloody from generation to generation.

But the problem is that there is a prerequisite for internal strife, that is, you cannot harm your own interests.

Although the second wife and son practiced the same way, he proved that he did not harm the interests of the Chu family through sophistry and silver bills, he harmed Chu Xiu's interests.

Isn’t Chu Xiu a member of the Chu family by using outsiders to cheat his own people?

Chu Xiu said with a gloomy face: "I don't know what my father is thinking now, but this matter is definitely not over. Let's prepare, I want to touch Li Zhao!"

Ma Kuo asked in confusion: "Let Boss Han take action?"

Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "No, let's take action ourselves! This time I not only want to touch Li Zhao, but also want to force the Chu family. Otherwise, I will definitely not be the heir of the Chu family head according to the normal procedures."

Now Chu Xiu also realized that Chu Zongguang didn't like him. Even if his favorite son Chu Shang was already ruined, Chu Zongguang also didn't like him.

The people inside the Chu family were even short-sighted and were all staring at their immediate interests.

Chu Xiu no longer had the patience to waste time with them. If he wanted to get this position as soon as possible, he would either kill the eldest Chu Kai and the third Chu Sheng, or he could only make a contribution that no one could surpass, so that he could get this position.

The Li family is now such an opportunity. Touching Li Zhao is just an introduction, and destroying the Li family is Chu Xiu’s real plan!

In the past, the Li family and the Chu family had so many dirty things. If Chu Xiu could completely destroy the Li family, who would be able to compare with this contribution?

Although he is not strong enough to compete with the Li family, Chu Xiu is confident that he can leverage the power of the entire Chu family through this matter.

Ma Kuo shrugged from the side. Anyway, they were now taking Chu Xiu’s money to do things for Chu Xiu, so naturally whatever Chu Xiu said would be.

Besides, they are working well with Chu Xiu now. If Chu Xiu can take the position of the heir of the Chu family and have enough power, it will actually be beneficial to them.

"By the way, Mr. Chu, do you know which road the Chu family caravan is going to take? If you can't find out, I will ask Boss Han to tell you and ask them to pay attention to you."

Chu Xiu shook his head, a strange look appeared in his eyes and said, "No need, I have my own way to do this."

As he said that, Chu Xiu called Gao Bei and asked, "Help me pay attention to the situation of Li Jing in the Li family and tell me his news."

If Li Zhao had not mentioned this before, Chu Xiu would have almost forgotten what happened in Yuanbao Town.

But now Li Zhao suddenly mentioned it, Chu Xiu suddenly had a solution.

Li Jing is actually a small person in the Li family. Although he is appreciated by Li Zhao, he is just a servant after all, not even in charge of the business. His situation and whereabouts are not a secret.

At this time, Li Jing was drinking in a small tavern.

If a person from the Li family like Li Jing drinks in a tavern run by the Li family, he will naturally have some discounts. However, he has deliberately avoided these places and chose a tavern run by ordinary merchants, but he doesn't want other servants from the Li family to see his jokes and ridicule him.

Li Jing is an ambitious person, and he has been since childhood.

Although he is a servant of the Li family, he is unwilling to be a current person all his life.

There are many people with such ambition, but most of them daydreaming, but Li Jing is different. He is the kind of person who really dares to do it, so he is very hardworking and hardworking in the Li family.

Although he doesn't want to be a current person, if he can't even do a servant well, how can he become a superior person?

With this idea, Li Jing stood out from a bunch of servants in a short time and gained the appreciation of Mr. Li San, but the experience in Yuanbao Town seemed like a nightmare, which directly destroyed everything about him.

Li Tong, the manager of the Li family, was humiliated by Chu Xiu because of his involvement, so he took his anger on him after returning to the Li family.

Mr. Li scolded him because he was causing trouble outside and was not steady enough. Although he was just scolding him, it actually meant that he was disgusted by the third son. Therefore, during this period, Li Tong has made things difficult for him in the Li family. No one in the Li family is willing to stand up for him.

Now Li Jing doesn't know who he should hate.

Do you hate Chu Xiu for his humiliation or Li Tong bullying the weak and fearing the strong, and dare not cause trouble for Chu Xiu, so you can only vent your anger on him, or hate Li Zhao for abandoning him mercilessly?

Just when Li Jing was slightly drunk, a man suddenly walked out of him and said, "Li Jing, my young master asked you to come over and whisper, don't shout."

As he said that, the man placed his hand directly on Li Jing's shoulder, and the force immediately made Li Jing understand that he could not resist.

This immediately made Li Jing's drunkenness sober, and he whispered: "Who is your young master? I am a small character who can't get on the table, why did he ask me for?"

"You will know when you go!"

The man threw down a piece of silver and took Li Jing hostage and left the tavern, but he didn't walk far away and took him directly into the second floor of an inn.

When I opened the door, there was only a young man in the room, wearing a golden brocade robe, and a goose feather knife, a salted water dish of peanuts and a pot of yellow wine on the table.

The moment he saw this man, Li Jing's eyes were filled with horror.

"Chu Xiu! It's you!"
