Chapter 77: The Birthday Banquet (1)

In the past few days, several of the most upscale hotels in Rongcheng have accommodated a lot of strange outsiders, and more and more people have come in the past two days.

The one hundred and tenth-year-old birthday banquet of the Great Grandmaster of the Ouyang Family, almost no ordinary people knew about it, and not many ordinary people cared about it. For them, even if it is the birthday banquet of the No. 1 head of the country, the two have no intersection, and there is no need to pay attention to it at all.

But for the martial arts forces in Rongcheng and even SC Province, as well as the top people among ordinary people, this birthday banquet has a lot to do with things. Therefore, a week before the birthday banquet began, many well-intentioned people came to Rongcheng in advance.

"What does the Ouyang family want to do, why did I just see a lot of people from third-rate forces. A warrior who had arrived in Rongcheng three days in advance asked his companions.

His companion was also puzzled, and guessed:

"I don't understand it either. The Ouyang family is also an old first-class family, and those who are qualified to bring people to the birthday banquet are at least the real power figures of the second-rate forces, even if the third-rate forces have a special relationship, at most, the innate grandmaster of the family will bring one or two of the most outstanding descendants to the birthday banquet, it is impossible for there to be so many acquired martial artists, could it be that the Ouyang family wants to take advantage of this birthday banquet to do something. ”

The first person hesitated and said: "Probably not, no matter what the two of us say, it also represents the second-rate family that has been friends with the Ouyang family for generations, even if they have any actions, they should inform us in advance, and it is impossible not to reveal the news to us at all." You say, could it be because of Old Man Ouyang Zhibo...... So, some people can't sit still?"

"It's really possible what you said! I just saw that the people of the Lu family and some of the top second-rate families are very close, and they don't seem to be allies of the Ouyang family!"

"I have a feeling that this birthday banquet will not be peaceful......"

......

Since last night, a long fence has been erected at the foot of Heming Mountain, sealing the passage up the mountain.

Tourists who plan to go up the mountain were politely told by the staff that they had received a reminder from experts that there was a risk of landslides on the hill near Heming Mountain, and that the relevant departments would close the mountain for testing, and only after confirming that there was no danger, would the passage up the mountain be opened again.

"When did they become so productive?" pouted one of the believers who was going to go up the mountain to burn incense. "There's not going to be a big shot, is it?"

"Do you say that you are a scumbag, and that it is not good for people to work efficiently? It is normal to pay attention to things that matter to human life. Besides, if it was really a big man who came to inspect, how could the chengguan not come here to sweep a few times in the past few days. A melon-eating crowd retorted.

His words were recognized by most people. "Maybe this time they have a rare conscience and want to do something practical. ”

As the staff posted the announcement, the crowd gathered at the foot of the mountain gradually left.

"Lao Zhang, why did you say that the above asked us to seal this place overnight, could it be really to prevent landslides?"

The staff member who carried the bulletin board out asked his colleague next to him. Others don't know, doesn't he know, from yesterday to now, he hasn't seen a person enter the mountain for testing.

"What's the matter, just do your own thing, there are some things that we shouldn't inquire. "Lao Zhang is an old man in the unit, and he knows how to protect himself, so he doesn't talk much about this topic at all.

......

As the birthday banquet time approached step by step, the citizens of Rongcheng gradually felt that the recent Rongcheng was a little different from the past, and there were more and more patrols and sturdy outsiders on the street, all revealing the atmosphere of the wind and rain.

Tianxian Restaurant is normal during this time, and Caesar Hotel has not sent anyone to make trouble, perhaps waiting for this birthday banquet to solve the matter together.

"Mr. Mo, you can feel the abnormality in Rongcheng during this time, right?" Qu Zhengyang sat respectfully opposite Mo Changsheng and reported to Mo Changsheng the news he had found.

Since Qu Zhengyang confirmed his guess a month ago, he has become more and more respectful to Mo Changsheng.

Especially during this period of time, after he cultivated Mo Changsheng's improved exercises, his strength greatly improved, and he racked his brains to further get closer to Mo Changsheng.

"You mean, this birthday banquet of the Ouyang family has gone wrong, right?" Mo Changsheng said casually while checking the things that Qu Zhengyang brought.

"He is worthy of being a rich man in charge of billions of assets, and he has collected an elixir in just one month, should I have more contact with him. ”

The few things that Qu Zhengyang brought were only one elixir, and it was low-level, but compared to the speed at which the two generations of the Mo family could gather the spiritual liquid materials, it was already very fast, and Mo Changsheng couldn't help but have some thoughts in his heart.

Qu Zhengyang didn't know Mo Changsheng's thoughts, and after hearing his question, he hurriedly replied:

"It stands to reason that I am not qualified to bring people to the birthday banquet, but this time, I received a rumor that as long as it is a congenital grandmaster, you can take your juniors to watch the ceremony at will, and it is ......"

Qu Zhengyang hesitated for a moment and said, "It seems that some first-class forces from other places are uniting with the second-rate forces in Rongcheng to do something, with the purpose of carving up the resources vacated by the Ouyang family after it fell to the top level. ”

Mo Changsheng somewhat understood, Ouyang Zhibo's life was not long, as soon as he died, the Ouyang family would fall into the first-class power, so it was certain that the other family sects had ideas.

Still, he didn't understand.

"It's normal for trees to fall apart, but I want to know, what exactly are your so-called resources?"

Qu Zhengyang thought for a moment and explained:

"Mr. Mo, you also know that martial artists often use some great tonic medicinal materials for their cultivation, and the cost required is not small. It would be nice if they had a huge industry like me, but most of them didn't have the talent for business, so they had to find another way to make money. ”

"In today's society, after all, ordinary people are in charge, and no matter how strong the warrior is, he cannot compare to the strength of the state apparatus, so although the secular official relies on the warrior, it is impossible for us to collect money through illegal means. Fortunately, every year, the government will set aside a part of the financial allocation and distribute it to the martial arts forces according to the level of power, in exchange for the support of the major forces. ”

Seeing Mo Changsheng's unbelievable expression, Qu Zhengyang hurriedly explained:

"Of course, only third-rate forces and above have this treatment, and the family sects that have taken the money have to help the official deal with some special events. That money seems to be a lot on the whole, but after it is distributed to many martial arts forces, it is very small. ”

"Therefore, in addition to this part of the financial allocation, the martial arts forces also need more financial resources. ”
