Chapter 36 The Dust Settles

When Chu Xiu put the heads of the three Li family brothers in front of everyone in the Chu family, everyone was stunned, even Chu Zongguang.

Because Chu Xiu chopped off the head, the outsiders didn't know that all the direct descendants of the Li family died at the hands of Chu Xiu. They thought it was only some elite warriors of the Li family who died.

Now that they saw these three heads, they realized that the Li family was really wiped out, by Chu Xiu alone!

This kind of Arabian Nights thing is placed before everyone's eyes, which makes them feel a little unbelievable.

Chu Xiu cupped his hands at everyone present and said, "Father, elders, the Li family has too many properties. Although my subordinates have already taken them over, they definitely can't manage them. That's why my child is willing to give two-thirds of the Li family. Take out your property and ask the family to send someone to manage it."

Hearing what Chu Xiu said, both Chu Zongguang and the elders of the Chu family nodded in satisfaction.

The heirs of the elders of the Chu family are all in charge of the Chu family. Now that the entire Li family has been swallowed up, although the entire Chu family is benefiting, shouldn't those places be managed by their heirs?

And Chu Zongguang is satisfied with Chu Xiu's attitude now.

Chu Xiu violated his will several times before, which made Chu Zongguang very angry. This time, Chu Xiu finally became more sensible.

At this moment, Chu Zongguang suddenly asked in doubt: "You still have a box, what's in it?"

Chu Xiu opened the box with a smile, and it contained Ding Kaishan's head!

The moment she saw the head, the second lady let out a wailing cry, "Father!"

Chu Zongguang's complexion suddenly darkened.

He thought that Chu Xiu had changed his temper and finally knew what it means to obey the rules, but he didn't expect Chu Xiu to slap him immediately.

Who is Ding Kaishan? It's his father-in-law, and Er Chuxiu is his son.

It's a joke that my son killed his father-in-law!

"Chu Xiu! What do you want to do?" Chu Zongguang smashed the table angrily.

Chu Xiu calmly said: "My lord, Ding Kaishan and my Chu family are related by marriage, but he is cheating and colluding with the Li family. Shouldn't he be killed?"

Upon hearing this, the second lady immediately took Chu Zongguang's hand and began to cry: "Master! My father has worked hard for the Chu family even if he has no credit, but he was killed by Chu Xiu, a little bastard. Let me be the master!"

Looking at the second wife, Chu Xiu sneered and said: "Thank you for your hard work? My Chu family has given Ding Kaishan a lot of things over the years, and the result? In exchange for him colluding with the Li family and betraying the interests of my Chu family!

This time I was besieged and killed by people from the Li family. I don’t want to talk about why there was no news beforehand. Ten thousand and two thousand catties, what about the rest? It was swallowed by him directly!

It has touched the interests of my Chu family, shouldn't it be killed? "

It's ridiculous to say that Ding Kaishan's biggest crime is actually colluding with outsiders to kill Chu Xiu, but this one cannot be brought to light, and Chu Xiu can only use Ding Kaishan to secretly harm the interests of the Chu family.

But the crux of the problem is that if he didn't kill Ding Kaishan today, even if he stabbed this matter out, Ding Kaishan would not die.

So Chu Xiu could only choose to kill Ding Kaishan first, and then use this crime to make a reasonable explanation for himself.

The second lady pointed at Chu Xiu and shouted: "You are talking nonsense! How could my father do such a thing?"

Chu Xiu said calmly: "If you don't believe me, you can check the accounts of the Chu family. When I robbed and killed the Li family caravan, I found 57,000 catties of ore, all of which were produced by my Chu family's Nanshan mining area. , have all been verified by the steward of the Chu family.

Also, my lord father might as well ask the steward who sent the ore to the Kaishan Martial Arts Academy if he changed the account. "

Chu Zongguang frowned, and immediately sent someone to ask the stewards.

The trend of the Chu family has changed, and the steward who has experienced this incident also knows that something is wrong, and dare not hide it, so he immediately told Chu Zongguang the actual situation.

The second lady's expression was dull, she really didn't know about this matter.

She never thought that Ding Kaishan would play tricks on her.

If Ding Kaishan really needs money, tell her directly, as a daughter, can she not give it? As a result, Ding Kaishan insisted on scheming secretly, but he also took his own life into the scheming!

There was a hint of anger in Chu Zongguang's eyes. Chu Xiu's cutting first and playing later did make Chu Zongguang very angry, but what made Chu Zongguang even more angry was the little tricks that the second wife did secretly, even at the expense of the interests of the Chu family.

"Come here, help the second lady down to rest. The second lady is too sad, and it's not suitable to go out recently."

The meaning of Chu Zongguang's words is obvious. He can't make a conclusion about Ding Kaishan's matter, but it is obvious that the second wife will not even be able to leave the courtyard in the future.

When Chu Zongguang turned his gaze to Chu Sheng, Chu Sheng hurriedly said: "Father, listen to me, I really don't know about all this!"

Chu Sheng probably didn't believe even himself, let alone Chu Zongguang.

In the past, Chu Zongguang felt that Chu Sheng was pretty good among his sons, at least he knew the rules, but now he hated him even more.

Chu Zongguang waved his hand, and said coldly: "Shut up! All these years, you only know how to calculate secretly, and you have neglected your martial arts.

My Chu family is a family of martial arts and has no strength. The position of the head of the family is given to you. Can you sit securely?

Now that your elder brother and your second brother have entered the blood coagulation state, only you are still in the body quenching state. From now on, you don't have to worry about the Chu family's business, just stay with your mother in your yard and go to practice with peace of mind. "

Chu Sheng's complexion turned extremely pale when he heard the words. What Chu Zongguang said was obvious. He has lost the qualification to be the heir of the Chu family from now on.

After the servants dragged the second wife, mother and child down, Chu Zongguang rubbed his head with some headaches and said, "Several uncles and Housekeeper Chen, you send someone to take over the property of the Li family, and everyone else goes down.

And Chu Xiu, this is my last warning to you, you must report to me before you do anything next time, otherwise, your business will also be taken back, go to the ancestral hall to reflect! "

Originally, it should be a happy thing to destroy the Li family, but Chu Zongguang was troubled by all these troubles.

Chu Xiu cupped his hands respectfully at Chu Zongguang and said, "Understood, my lord."

For Chu Xiu, his goal had already been achieved. The Li family was destroyed, and his prestige in the Chu family was unmatched. By the way, he got rid of the second wife, mother and son, and he was not punished by Chu Zongguang.

Of course, the more important thing is that Chu Xiu got one-third of the Li family's family business.

Now that Chu Xiu is short of money and resources, one-third of the entire Li family's property is enough for Chu Xiu to digest for a while.

As for the Li family who handed over two-thirds, Chu Xiu was also very helpless, and he couldn't swallow the entire Li family without handing over.

If they don't feed the rest of the Chu family, they will let Chu Xiu get those things so easily?

After returning to his courtyard, Gao Bei excitedly said to Chu Xiu: "My lord, this time we made a fortune! Not counting those real estate properties, all the assets of the Li family have already exceeded one million taels!"

When Chu Xiu heard this, he frowned and said, "What? Such a big Li family, which has taken root in Tongzhou Prefecture for hundreds of years, doesn't count the fixed things like real estate, but its assets are only one million taels?"

Gao Bei smiled wryly and said, "Young master, this is enough. The Li family lost their hearts after the death of the old Patriarch of the Li family, and left many servants. The Li family paid a high price to keep the hearts of the people. .

Also, the main business of the Li family is casting soldiers and refining weapons, but these businesses are in Qingyuan Town, Yan State, so I didn't count them in. "

Chu Xiu nodded and said: "Okay, we will take one-third of the Li family's things, and give the rest to the family. Remember, cultivation resources are given priority."

Gao Bei nodded, he is not suitable for big things, but some small things are still very neat.

It took him and the Chu family's stewards almost a day to figure out the accounts, and sent Chu Xiu all the cultivation resources that Chu Xiu wanted.

The current foundation of the Li family is not as good as that of the Chu family. They don't even have alchemists, and all the pills and other things are purchased from outside.

Things like Buqi Powder and Congealing Blood Pill are of little significance to Chu Xiu who has reached the Blood Congealing Realm. What really caught Chu Xiu's eyes was that there were still three bottles of Jade Pill hidden in Li's house.

Jasper Pill is a pill refined from some precious herbs that are abundant in Yan Country. It is shaped like Jasper, so it is called Jasper Pill. Some big pies are capable of refining, and one piece is worth hundreds of taels, and ordinary people can't buy it at all.

It is estimated that these three bottles of Jasper Pills were bought by the Li family from Yan Guo for Li Cheng and others to use, but now they fell into the hands of Chu Xiu.

Taking out several jasper elixirs one after another, Chu Xiu used his innate skills to refine the power in the elixirs.

This is the benefit of advanced exercises. Ordinary people would not dare to swallow dates like Chu Xiu, swallowing several pills one after another.
