The Tian family in the county town are also having a meeting.
But there were only three people.
Tian Fuhai, Tian Zhen, and housekeeper Zhou An.
Today we are talking about the future development plans of the Tian family, and calling Zhou An in also shows how much Tian Fuhai values him.
Tian Fuhai clarified the theme of today's meeting. Is he working with Xu Qian and others to target Zhao Ping? Or help Zhao Ping and find out the truth about that year?
"Dad, I must be helping Mr. Zhao."
Tian Zhen said without hesitation: "Think about it, even Xu Jiuguan has high praise for Mr. Zhao. We are just a slightly wealthy businessman in the county. What reason do we have to reject the olive branch offered by Zhao Ping?"
"The situation is different."
Tian Fuhai sighed: "Xu Jiuguan can unite with Zhao Ping because Xu Jiuguan is a popular person around His Majesty. He is not afraid of the backers behind the four major families in our county."
"But what about us?"
"In such a big Tian family, Tian Yi is the only one who comes out, and he is only a Hanlin bachelor, not even a grade."
"In addition, there is no one behind me to push me. If I want to take a step further and become a Hanlin bachelor, I think it is simply impossible."
"Once we offend the other four, Tian Yi will definitely not protect us."
"We have Mr. Zhao."
Tian Zhen said.
"What ability does Mr. Zhao have to protect us?"
Tian Fuhai said disdainfully: "Besides knowing medical skills, brewing acacia wine, and occasionally writing some amazing poems, what else can he do?"
"You can't even deal with Huang Fengnian, let alone the four major families in the county."
"You mean Li Hu?"
Zhou An and Tian Fuhai have different concerns, and he muttered: "Li Hu is indeed very strong, but he is the only one."
"I can fight ten or twenty, but what if there are hundreds or thousands?"
"Hahaha."
Tian Zhen laughed, "Dad, Butler Zhou, you only paid attention to Zhao Ping, but you never thought of paying attention to Li Hu."
"Do you know who Li Hu is?"
"What identity?"
Tian Fuhai boldly guessed, "Could it be that Zhao Ping is really the target of cultivation by someone in the capital?"
"Li Hu is the personal bodyguard given to him by that adult?"
"What are you thinking about?"
Tian Zhen rolled his eyes at his father, "Mr. Zhao and Li Hu are both natives of Xiping Village. We have already investigated this very clearly."
"And Li Hu is still a fool."
"He is a fool known to everyone in Xiping Village, a loser..."
"How can this be?"
Tian Fuhai and Zhou An shook their heads at the same time, "How can a fool have such high abilities?"
"With Zhao Ping, everything is possible."
Tian Zhen said: "Have you ever thought that someone could conquer the plague?"
“Have you ever thought that someone could brew something as delicious as acacia wine?”
"And how long has Li Hu followed Zhao Ping? He transformed from a fool into a martial arts master now."
"He can kill Butler Zhou instantly with one move."
"Think about it again, how many people does Zhao Ping have?"
"Who is not smarter than Li Hu?"
"Li Hu can learn it, but can't they?"
"did you mean……"
Tian Fuhai opened his mouth in surprise, his face full of disbelief.
Zhao Ping can create masters. Li Hu is not the only one beside him, but also Xia Quan, Yun Man and others. Are they all martial arts masters?
If you put it this way, Xiping Village is completely a killer organization.
And it is also an extremely powerful killer organization.
Tian Fuhai had to be cautious, "Is the news confirmed?"
"pretty close."
Tian Zhen said: "Do you know why the bandits in Yun'an County were wiped out?"
"Isn't it Qi Liang who led his troops to kill them by surprise?"
After Tian Fuhai finished speaking, even he himself didn't quite believe it. He shook his head and said, "No, if Qi Liang really had the ability, he would have taken action long ago. Why did he wait until now?"
"good."
Tian Zhen replied: "The person who really wiped out the bandits in Yun'an County was not Qi Liang, but Zhao Ping."
"Not only the bandits in Yun'an County, but also the bandits in the entire Donghai County were wiped out by Zhao Ping."
"What?"
Tian Fuhai didn't believe it even more, "How is this possible?"
"There are more than twenty bandits, large and small, in Donghai County, and many of them are supported by big families or officials. How can Zhao Ping wipe out all of them quietly?"
"That's right, young master, have you ever been fed some ecstasy soup by Zhao Ping and kept saying nice things to him?"
Zhou An also didn't believe it.
Although he tends to cling to Zhao Ping, it is only because acacia wine can help the Tian family make money.
In today's world, money is the root of everything.
Although Tian Yi is a Hanlin scholar, he is far away in the capital and cannot solve their problem in Donghai County at all.
Everything still needs to be done on their own.
With money, you can not only expand your business, but also recruit guards, buy slaves, etc.
But if Zhao Ping could get rid of the bandits in Donghai County in such a short period of time, he would not believe it even if he killed Zhou An.
"You can investigate."
Tian Zhen said: "But as long as you know about this matter, no one can reveal it."
"Otherwise, it will bring disaster to the Tian family."
They both nodded at the same time.
Being able to wipe out the bandits in Donghai County is a strength that cannot be underestimated.
If it was Zhao Ping's fault, Tian Fuhai would have to re-evaluate Zhao Ping and re-formulate the Tian family's development plan.
"We are all rotting in our stomachs about this matter."
Tian Fuhai said cautiously: "Just pretend that I don't know anything. I will continue to mingle with the four major families and find out their next plans. At the same time, I will help Zhao Ping investigate the truth about the murder of his parents."
"Tian Zhen, you should be familiar with Zhao Ping."
"Don't stay in the county. Go to Yun'an County. We have opened a cloth shop there and we have to run it no matter what."
"At the same time, walk around more with Zhao Ping. It is best to become brothers who share life and death."
"Dad, do you think it's appropriate for me, a grown man, to have a relationship with Zhao Ping?"
Tian Zhen said speechlessly: "How about you call Xiaorou back and betroth her to Zhao Ping."
"With this relationship, our Tian family can be invincible."
"Can you call me back?"
Tian Fuhai said angrily: "Your cousin is the one who makes the decision on the Tian family. By letting Xiaorou marry the son of the Minister of Household Affairs, you are also paving the way for you to seek a bachelor's degree in the Hanlin Academy."
"This matter has become a foregone conclusion and cannot be changed. Don't mention it again."
"If Zhao Ping really likes beautiful women, the worst we can do is find someone from the clan to marry him."
"Why!"
Tian Zhen sighed.
I really can’t persuade my father.
It's time to plot against the Tian family, oust Dad, and be the master of the family.
…
Zhao Ping knew everything about their discussions.
Yun'an Restaurant was originally Huang Fengnian's property. Huang Fengnian was beheaded by Zhao Ping, and all his properties fell into Zhao Ping's hands.
This restaurant is not for selling food or wine, but for gathering information.
Inside are two poker team members, the Ace of Clubs and the Two of Diamonds.
Club A is the poker team member with the most power when Xia Zhixue stays in Yun'an County. He is responsible for summarizing all the news and then reporting it to Zhao Ping.
What Xu Qi'an and the others were discussing in the private room was clearly heard by Diamond 2, who was pretending to be a diner.
Now it has reached Zhao Ping's ears.
"Are you going to use bandits against me?"
Zhao Ping chuckled, "I'm afraid they won't be able to find a single bandit in Donghai County."
"It's the people behind them who have to guard against them."
"There are also those two killer organizations, the Dark Hall in the north and the Star Pavilion in the south."
"There is no relevant information at all."
"It's just that the time I traveled through was too short, and the poker team has not developed enough to spread throughout the entire Dawei Dynasty. We still need to work hard."
Behind Tianxia Bank is the Yongzhou Qian family, the first family in the Dawei Dynasty.
I really can't afford to offend him with my current strength.
Fortunately, Qian Tu was not very interested in besieging him. If they ruined their plan this time, Qian Tu would withdraw, so there was no need to worry.
Mu Wenxing is from the Mu family.
With Mu Qiaoqiao working as a cook on his side, Mu Wenxing cannot make waves.
Tongbai is a member of the Ministry of Finance.
But Zhao Ping is not afraid of being just a side branch of the housekeeper.
What's more, Tongbai is in charge of the largest cloth shop in Donghai County, and is the most likely culprit who defeated his parents.
Not only must we defend, but we must also take the initiative.
He forced Tongbai to reveal his flaws, found out the evidence that his parents were murdered, and killed him.
And if I remember correctly, Tian Rou was brought to the capital by Tian Yi to marry the son of the Minister of Hubu.
That was from the shopkeeper that I finally found.
But he was cut off by the Minister of Hubu.
If you can't fight him in the capital, it would be good to create some trouble for him in Donghai County.
As for the last one, Xu Qian, he belongs to Shangshu Ling.
Zhao Ping was also unable to deal with it.
But it would be fine if Xu Qi'an just gave up.
If he still didn't know whether to live or die and was jumping around in front of him, Zhao Ping wouldn't mind chopping off his head.
Anyway, Donghai County is far away from Chang'an. When the news is passed, and when Shangshu Ling sends people to come and trouble him, he will have made all preparations and will definitely be able to prevent the other party from even being found in the north.
After gathering his thoughts, Zhao Ping called everyone together for a meeting.
You can’t always be forced to defend, it’s time to take the initiative.
