The moment Zhou Yingzhao’s words left his mouth, the expressions of the four clan heads instantly turned ugly.
They had not expected that the Deshun Prince’s Mansion would actually stand up for Chen Yang. This was not good.
If he agreed to Yang Chen’s request, the brown soil would be quite precious.
However, if he didn’t agree, then Zhou Yingzhao wouldn’t be easy to pass. Although they were an Eighth-rank Aristocratic Family, they were like slightly bigger ants when facing the Deshun Prince’s Mansion.
Seeing that the four of them were wavering, Yang Chen struck while the iron was hot and said,””Everyone should know that Young Sect Master Wang has come to my Chen City.”
“Young Sect Master’s current situation is indeed a little difficult but he is after all the son of the Sect Master. It is still relatively easy for the vassal clans to change their Clan Master.”
“What do you think?”
Young Sect Master!
In an instant, Patriarch Long lost his composure.
Yang Chen had a good saying. Even if Wang Shuo was nothing to Wang Hu, it was still easy to deal with them.
Moreover, it was not like they were going to destroy their family. Instead, they were going to change their family head. That would be even easier.
Patriarch Long looked at the other three patriarchs. From their eyes, Patriarch Long read the same message as him.
” We promised the Chen Clan Leader that we’d help him.” After much consideration, Master Long decided to compromise.
If he rejected Chen Yang, not only would he offend the Deshun Prince, but he would also lose his position as the family head.
Since that was the case, he might as well give De Shun Commandery Prince some face.
Yang Chen smiled.” You will never regret the decision you made today.””
After bidding farewell to the four vassal aristocratic families of the Beast Tamer Sect, Chen Yang brought Zhou Yingzhao to visit the remaining eighth-rank aristocratic families one after another.
After Yang Chen’s reasonable persuasion, coupled with the sale of food, he gave a 30% discount.
With Zhou Ying Zhao’s threats, these aristocratic families weighed the pros and cons and finally agreed to Yang Chen’s request.
After successfully instigating the rebellion of the aristocratic families, Yang Chen spent the rest of his time in the inn, waiting for the meeting to begin.
The sun set and the moon rose. In the blink of an eye, the meeting was officially held in the Prefecture Overseer’s Mansion.
“Lord Prefecture Overseer, family heads. “The demon beasts have caused chaos and caused the land of Jiang Prefecture to become barren. The people of Jiang Prefecture have even fallen into a state of chaos.”
“Fortunately, the heavens have shown mercy. The Chen family of Nanyang County found brown soil and developed a method to cultivate rice with brown soil.”
“Today, on behalf of all the aristocratic families, I would like to ask the Chen Family Head to consider the friendship between us and sell the brown soil to us.”
“As for the price, we’re willing to pay double or even triple it. We won’t let our Jiang Prefecture’s heroes suffer any losses!”
In the meeting hall of the Prefecture Overseer’s Mansion, the Song family’s head was so impassioned that he almost promoted Chen Yang to the position of a Saint.
After he finished speaking, he deliberately cupped his hands and bowed to Chen Yang. In an instant, his eyes flashed with a trace of pride.
What do you think? I’m going to crush you with my power. You clearly don’t want to trade, but you have no choice!
However, what Master Song didn’t know was that the other eighth-rank aristocratic families were all watching Master Song’s performance coldly.
After listening to Master Song’s speech, Yang Chen smiled and applauded.” Master Song, you’re really eloquent. If you weren’t a member of the Song family, I would have recruited you to my Chen family.”
Hearing Yang Chen’s sarcastic words, the Song family head was disdainful.
Anyway, sooner or later, you’re going to sell out. So what if you’re being sarcastic?
“However, I’m not selling it.”
Master Song revealed a proud smile. 1 knew you would definitely sell it…Wait a minute!
“Chen Clan Leader, what did you say? You’re not selling?” Master Song looked at Yang Chen in surprise, then quickly reacted. If he didn’t sell it, he naturally had his own way of dealing with it.
Immediately, the Song family’s head had a pained look on his face.” Chen family’s head, you… Sigh! Lord Chen, this concerns the lives of the Jiang Prefecture’s citizens. How can you do this?”
“Moreover, it’s not just the commoners. It also affects the status of the aristocratic families in Jiang Prefecture. Do you want to see all the aristocratic families in Jiang Prefecture fall in status and their families decline?”
Family Head Song’s words had completely struck a chord in the hearts of all the family heads.
Could it be that Yang Chen was planning to make them fall so that he could take the opportunity to rise?
The more they thought about it, the more they felt that this was the case. Once their grades declined, the spirit stone business would definitely not be able to survive.
In a short period of time, the Chen family was probably the only ninth-rank family in the entire Jiangzhou. By then, wouldn’t they be able to swallow up everyone’s business?
After thinking through the pros and cons, the ninth-rank aristocratic families looked at Yang Chen coldly. Some of the family heads even started cursing.
“Chen Yang! 1 thought that as the disciple of Deshun Commandery Prince, you would care about the lives of the people of Jiang Prefecture.”
“But 1 didn’t expect you to disregard the lives of hundreds of millions of people in Jiang Prefecture for the sake of the Chen family’s development!”
“That’s right, Chen Yang, you’re forcing us to die. If that’s the case, we won’t care about the Deshun Commandery Prince and will drag your Chen Family down with us!”
“That’s right. We won’t be able to survive anyway, so don’t be too ruthless. 1 don’t believe that my ancestor won’t be able to take the lives of your Chen family members!”
Hearing the insults and threats, Master Song looked at Yang Chen smugly. What are you going to do now?
When Yang Chen saw this, his gaze swept across the family heads.” Everyone, don’t be anxious. Our Chen family will naturally not allow your family’s status to fall.”
“I can’t sell you brown soil, but 1 can sell you food.”
Selling food?
The family heads frowned. Who would want to buy food if they could buy brown soil?
Immediately, the family heads discussed in private, saying that they would force Yang Chen to sell the brown soil no matter what.
“My Chu Clan is willing to accept the opinion of the Chen Clan Leader. In addition, if the aristocratic families of Jiangyou Prefecture do not agree, then don’t blame my Chu Clan for being ruthless.”
Just as the family heads were about to retort in unison, the Chu family, an eighth-rank family in Jiangyou Prefecture, suddenly spoke up.
The Chu family’s words completely disrupted Master Song’s rhythm.
Immediately, Master Song looked at the Chu family in disbelief. They had clearly discussed it and forced the Chen family to sell the brown soil together. Why did they change their mind now?
The Chu Clan was not the only one who was in disbelief. The other eighth-rank aristocratic families also voiced their willingness to accept the Chen Clan’s plan to sell grain.
Even the rulers of the various counties had spoken, so the ninth-ranked aristocratic families naturally did not dare to say anything. After all, they did not have the backing of the Regional King.
In an instant, Master Song felt betrayed.
She pointed at the aristocratic families with both hands and trembled with anger.” You…” You guys!”
“Alright, 1 agree.” In an instant, Master Song seemed to have aged by more than ten years as he agreed in a daze.
“What did you agree to? When did the Chen family say that they were going to sell it to the Song family?”Yang Chen smiled.
“You… What did you say? How dare you not sell it to the Song family?” Master Song glared at Yang Chen. The spiritual energy in his body fluctuated as if he was about to make a move.
“Master Song! Mind your attitude! Since the Chen Clan Leader is not willing to sell it to you, why do you have to force him? Get lost!”
Master Long snorted coldly. Then, he emitted the pressure of the eighth level of Meridian Unsealing and enveloped Master Song..
