In addition to Shang Hai, Shang Hai's younger brother Shang Kuo was among the merchant's vanguard this time.
Shang Kuo looked at the people coming off the boat and immediately rushed up to ask: "How are you doing things! Where are the other boats? You can't handle such a small thing. Are you worthy of the cultivation that the merchant has given you?"
Shang Kuo's loud voice immediately attracted the attention of others. It was obvious that Shang Kuo meant these words to Shang Yan.
Shang Wang came out from behind at this time and slapped Shang Kuo on the face, "You bastard! This is the tone you used when talking to the young patriarch! Believe it or not, I will beat you to death right now!"
Shang Kuo was stunned by the slap. He turned around and was about to get angry when he realized it was Shang Wang. He was so frightened that he covered his face and trembled.
"Fourth...fourth uncle! Why are you here too!"
Shang Wang's eyes widened with anger, "If I hadn't come, our fleet would have been destroyed long ago. You're a useless thing, you know how to scream! If I see you being disrespectful to the young patriarch again, I will be the first to forgive you." you!"
Shang Kuo covered his face obediently and quickly knelt on the ground, but his teeth were clenched tightly, and there was a hint of viciousness in his eyes.
"Go away! Why don't you call someone to unload the goods!"
Shang Kuo's eldest son saw this scene from a distance behind him. His fists were clenched so tightly that his nails were almost digging into his flesh.
Except for the youngest son Shang Fei, everyone in the Shang Kuo family hates the eldest brother Shang Hai very much. To be precise, the eldest brother insists on passing the family head to his incompetent son Shang Yan.
So Shang Kuo targeted Shang Yan everywhere. Shang Wang knew about these things in the past, but he never took action like he did today. He didn't know what happened along the way, which made Shang Wang completely fall to Shang Yan's side.
Shang Kuo now hated Shang Yan to his core, thinking that Shang Yan must have used some sweet words to confuse Shang Wang.
Guo Xun and Chu Yuchuan also saw this scene in their eyes. Guo Xun completely regarded this scene as lively, but Chu Yuchuan was not surprised.
This kind of thing can be seen everywhere in the family. There will be more or less conflicts of interest in any family. This is especially obvious in a large family like the Chu family. Fortunately, there are elders in the Yuan Ying stage in the family, so After all, it was just a small fight.
In the Chu family, the reason why the head of the family and the first elder are the same person is also very simple. Chu Yuchuan is currently the strongest among the elders of the Chu family, but he is the fourth oldest, so he is not qualified to be the first elder.
Although the second child is old enough, he is not the strongest, so he is not qualified to be the great elder. In this way, the position of the great elder will be vacant after two rounds. In order to prevent the elders from competing for this one person in the family, he is the most powerful one. The position above, so this position eventually fell to the head of the family, Chu Zhangwu.
In the end, the Chu family was able to develop stably. Every family has its own hard-to-remember scriptures, and most of the time they just make expedient measures.
The merchants are different. The top merchants are all at the Dan Condensation stage and do not have the absolute strength to suppress everyone. The result will inevitably lead to civil strife. The reason why Shang Kuo is so arrogant is actually because he has taken advantage of these things in his family. No one can do anything to him.
However, elders are always elders, and face must be given, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.
While unloading, Shang Wang introduced Guo Xun and Chu Yuchuan to Shang Hai and others.
Shang Wang spoke calmly, but those who listened were confused in the wind.
Unexpectedly, during this river trip, I would be lucky enough to meet the Chu family, one of the eight major families in Bihai City. Shang Wang even accepted a talented apprentice.
This series of surprises made Shang Hai smile from ear to ear, and he quickly greeted Guo Xun and the others.
However, when Shang Wang finally recounted their encounters along the way, Shang Hai frowned and sighed repeatedly. Then when he learned that Shang Yu Qi Hai had been destroyed, Shang Hai immediately lost his composure.
The atmosphere also became a little heavy, and Shang Hai had no intention of listening anymore. After saying goodbye to everyone, he quickly came to Shang Yu's room. At this moment, he burst into tears. The burden of being the head of the family seemed too heavy, and the debt and regret in his heart completely exploded at this moment. come out.
But what can he do! The sea of qi is the foundation for cultivators in the foundation-building stage. If the sea of qi is destroyed, the foundation after breaking through the foundation-building period will naturally disappear. All cultivation will disappear, and all the beautiful yearnings will become empty in the blink of an eye. This pain and the pain of losing my daughter bear.
Shanghai is almost about to collapse, but there is nothing he can do. The elixir to repair Qihai is too expensive. The third-level return elixir and one hundred thousand low-grade spiritual stones are as high as heaven for a declining family like Shanghai.
After the supplies on the ship were moved off the ship, everyone prepared to enter the city together. I don't know if it was due to the Linlang Business Expo in Bihai City or some other reason. The investigation was very careful and strict.
During the investigation, the people from the merchant passed by quickly. When they arrived at Guo Xun, something unexpected happened. Guo Xun was stopped by the guard.
"Stop! Come here! Boy! Didn't you hear me?"
Guo Xun didn't realize at first that he was being called, and he followed the merchant's convoy obediently. When the guard placed a spear in front of him, Guo Xun realized that he was being called.
"Me? What's the matter?"
At this time, three guards came and surrounded Guo Xun. They looked at him carefully for a moment. Immediately, some people's expressions changed greatly. They couldn't help but take a few steps back, but they did not let Guo Xun go.
At this moment, Chu Yuchuan walked up from behind. When the guards saw that the man was wearing the clothes of the Chu family, they immediately stood in awe.
But none of them expected that Chu Yuchuan actually came to Guo Xun and said, "I am Chu Yuchuan, the fourth elder of the Chu family. This is my friend. If you have anything to say, tell me!"
The expressions of several guards immediately turned ugly. At this time, their captain stood up from the side and said, "Let us go!"
At this time, the three guards surrounding him breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they were not allowed to arrest anyone, otherwise the lives of the three of them would not have been saved today.
Guo Xun felt a little baffled. It must be his first time coming to Bihai City today! Could it be that he was treated as a criminal because he looked like someone?
Guo Xun followed Chu Yuchuan into the city. Only after entering the city did Guo Xun realize how huge this Bihai City was.
Bihai City is the largest city in the west of Nandian Kingdom. The reason is that there is a Biluo River next to Bihai City. The Biluo River almost gave birth to the entire Biluohe County, and is called the mother of the Biluohe people. The river is not an exaggeration either.
In the past, Guo Xun thought that Shuilong City in the Tang Dynasty was the largest city he had ever seen, but when he came to Bihai City, he realized that he still underestimated the world.
Bihai City is not an undulating city like Shuilong City. There is almost no slope here, and it is unimaginably flat. However, there are various high-rise buildings in the city.
These houses are simple and solemn, majestic and magnificent, and the streets are even more spacious. The entire street is paved with stone slabs the size of a person. The commercial houses on both sides of the street are covered with lanterns. The streets are crowded with people, and the sounds of selling and shouting are continuous. Continuously, so lively.
