Chapter 157 New Patriarch

Seeing Zhou Honglang's rosy face and a little joy in his expression, Chen Xingzhen couldn't help but ask:

"May I ask Mr. Zhou, what happy events have happened recently?"

Looking at the other people loading and unloading blood rice, Zhou Honglang smiled again:

"I didn't expect that Patriarch Chen would see it."

Chen Xingzhen's expression was slightly dull. You have written the word "happy" on your face. If he can't see it anymore, he is probably blind.

Chen Xingzhen did not interrupt, but Zhou Honglang continued:

"This matter is supposed to be a family secret, but I think it won't be long before it will be made public. It's not really a secret, so I'll tell you."

"Not long after, my uncle will be the new patriarch of my Zhou family."

Chen Xingzhen had a hint of surprise in his eyes when he heard the news.

Uncle, I think he is Zhou Huaian.

Zhou Huaian is about to become the new patriarch of the Zhou family. This matter does not seem to have much to do with the family. After all, the mountain is high and the emperor is far away. He does not know the situation of the Zhou family. Who will be the patriarch has little to do with the family.

But if you think about it carefully, this news is actually beneficial to the Chen family.

The person who connected the family with the Zhou family was Zhou Huaian. Although the relationship between the two was not deep, they had a connection at least.

If someone else had been the head of the Zhou family, the family might not be able to maintain its current stable situation.

For a large family like the Zhou family, after becoming the patriarch, they will inevitably have greater power and more available resources. This is fundamentally different from him, the patriarch.

Thinking of this, Chen Xingzhen immediately congratulated and said:

"This is indeed a great joy. In order to congratulate Mr. Zhou on becoming the clan leader, our Chen family is willing to offer 60% blood rice to the Zhou family next year!"

Hearing these words, several clan members behind him looked puzzled, but these words were said by the clan leader Chen Xingzhen. Even though everyone was confused, there were still outsiders present, and they did not ask for the reason.

After hearing this, Zhou Honglang also had a hint of surprise in his eyes.

Objects such as blood rice are not too rare for the Zhou family. After all, this object will not have much effect on warriors above the middle stage of the blood coagulation realm, but it can be used against a low-class family like the Chen family. For me, blood rice is the top priority.

He didn't expect Chen Xingzhen to be so courageous, and he would get 10% of the money as soon as he gave it away.

But Zhou Honglang was not in a hurry to agree. Instead, he smiled and said:

"But I can't make the decision on this matter. It's better to wait until I go back and report it to my uncle. I'll wait until he agrees."

Chen Xingzhen was not disappointed after hearing this, he just cupped his fists and said:

"Then I'll ask Mr. Zhou to convey it on your behalf."

"It's getting late. Why don't you, Mr. Zhou, take the clansmen to rest for the night and set off again tomorrow?"

Chen Xingzhen kindly persuaded him to stay.

Zhou Honglang shook his head:

"My uncle will succeed to the throne soon, and there are still many things in the clan. I need to go back as soon as possible."

"This matter is indeed a big deal, so I won't stay here any longer. Tianyu, go and get a few pots of the prepared rice wine for Mr. Zhou to take back. By the way, Mr. Zhou can also taste the newly brewed rice wine this year. ”

Zhou Honglang's eyes brightened slightly, but he did not refuse this time and accepted it happily.

Although there is blood rice in the family now, and the family's brewing technology is much better than that of the Chen family, there are a lot of people in the family, so they really don't have the intention to brew rice wine.

The wind chasing falcon leaves just as quickly as it comes.

It didn't take long for the Zhou family to take advantage of the wind and leave.

Below, many clan members looked envious. It would be great if the clan also had a Wind Chaser Falcon.

After the Zhou family left, Chen Tianyu behind him said:

"Clan leader, even if Zhou Huaian became the head of the Zhou family, why did the family still have to offer 10% more blood rice? In this way, wouldn't the family have less blood rice to use?"

Chen Xingzhen shook his head:

"The 10% blood rice is indeed a lot, and it will be a great help to the family, but some resources cannot be bought with jade coins."

"If the family does not have a warrior in the air control realm for a long time, it will be forever limited. Only by transforming the family's current resources into practical things can the family become stronger."

"If I remember correctly, the Zhou family has something called the Wind Fairy Flower. It is still necessary to have a good relationship with the Zhou family. Qingyu's talent cannot be buried in the family."

Chen Tianyu and others were thoughtful after hearing this.

Chen Xingzhen looked at Chasing Falcon going away and continued:

"I think the news has reached Yong'an City. The four major families should not act rashly for the time being."

"Since the blood rice has been harvested, go to Yong'an City in a few days to sell the excess blood rice, along with the clan's previous accumulations, and then exchange it for some heavenly materials and earthly treasures, especially things like Fengxian Flowers or aroids and other things.”

"This mission is more important. Tianyu, you go with Tianjing and bring more clan members with you so that they can see the world."

"Yes, patriarch."

The two of them responded.

…

At night, the moon is as bright as water.

"Ouch."

In the mass burial mountain, the sound of howling wolves sounded.

As a unique wolf howl sounded, several green wolves in the Body Tempering Realm made some moves, and they slowly moved towards the Chen family through the night.

There was a faint light flashing in the sharp eyes.

Faced with the sneak attack of these green wolves, the Chen family had no reaction at all.

But when these green wolves dived into the hole in the wall, their eyes darkened and they lost consciousness.

On the other side of the wall, a group of tribesmen were also agile and skillful in their movements.

When the blue wolf's head just came in, they were ready. They used a paralyzing herb unique to the mass grave mountain to paralyze the blue wolves, and then began to pack them skillfully and bring them into the wolf shed that had been built long ago.

"Qingxiu, which batch is this this month?"

A tribesman asked while tying up the blue wolf under him.

Chen Qingxiu answered without hesitation:

"The third batch."

"I heard from other tribesmen that there seems to be some effect in the past two days."

Taming these blue wolves is not an easy task, but the family is not completely helpless. They can tame them while exploring.

And these few days, it can be regarded as the initial results, but it still takes some time to completely control them.

But even so, the tribesmen seem to be full of energy.

After all, it is hard not to be tempted to have a blue wolf with a high level and a mighty appearance as a mount.

"There should be no more, let's go back to sleep."

"Wait a little longer."

As the howl of a wolf sounded again in the distance, several tribesmen no longer hesitated, blocked the cave entrance, and turned to leave.

This time there were indeed no more.

On the hillside, a group of wolves gathered.

At the top, after the wolf king gave the signal to retreat and hide, several blood coagulation blue wolves stayed where they were and did not leave.
