My son is about to break through.

Chapter 29 Pei Jing
Gu family lobby.

Gu Qingfeng sat in the main seat, and the rest were Gu Yang and Meng Peng.

"Father, we got a total of 200,000 taels of silver from the extermination of the Chu family. The remaining medicinal materials, antiques, calligraphy and paintings, if estimated at the market price, are about 150,000 to 200,000 taels.

Six low-grade martial arts and one medium-grade martial art!"

"In addition, the Chu family has a lot of businesses, including three restaurants, five pharmacies, two brothels and two casinos!"

Gu Yang held the account book in his hand and told the whole story of all the assets of the Chu family.

As an old force in Baishidao, the Chu family has considerable assets.

Gu Qingfeng listened to Gu Yang's words and nodded slightly: "All these industries have been assigned people to take over. The Chu family wants to occupy our Gu family's industries, and now it's time to change them."

"in addition--"

"Have you figured out the statistics of the Iron Bone Gang's industries?"

Hear the words.

Gu Yang nodded.

"The Tiegu Gang's assets have also been counted. Currently, the Tiegu Gang has about 530,000 taels of silver in cash and 3,000 taels of gold.

The remaining antiques and paintings, if converted into silver, would be worth about 300,000 taels."

"As for the properties, there are a total of 16 restaurants and inns, 8 brothels, 6 gambling houses, and 23 other miscellaneous properties—"

"In terms of martial arts, we found a total of 16 low-grade martial arts and two mid-grade martial arts from the Tiegu Gang."

Compared with the Chu family, the Tiegu Gang's assets are undoubtedly much richer.

This is also normal.

After all, the Tiegu Gang is the dominant force in Baishidao.

But even though Gu Qingfeng had anticipated this, he couldn't help but take a deep breath when he actually heard about the assets of the Tiegu Gang.

If all of it were converted into silver, the Tiegu Gang would be worth at least one million taels of silver.

but.

What Gu Qingfeng cared about more was gold.

good--

It's gold.

In this world, gold is a truly scarce thing that cannot be compared to other things.

Although the official ratio of gold to silver was set at one to one hundred by the Taixuan Dynasty, that is, one tael of gold was equivalent to one hundred taels of silver.

But here's the thing.

Gold is priceless.

The imperial court controlled almost all gold in its hands, and very little gold circulated among the people, which led to the scarcity of gold.

Others may not understand why gold is so precious, but Gu Qingfeng has the magic of spiritual communication and knows that gold has a natural restraining effect on evil spirits.

In a sense, if you want to seal the evil, you must have gold.

therefore.

The imperial court had extensive control over gold.

As for the so-called evil spirits, to be honest, Gu Qingfeng has been in Baishidao for many years and has never heard of the existence of evil spirits.

What happened in Lin County at that time seemed like just a dream.

however.

Gu Qingfeng knew it very well.

What happened in Lin County was not a dream.

There are evil spirits and sorcerers in this world.

However, no matter whether it is evil spirits or sorcerers, they are not something that ordinary people can come into contact with, so the news has not leaked.

"Bring all the gold to me. Send people to take over the assets of the other two forces. Anyone who dares to stop us will be killed."

Gu Qingfeng looked indifferent. "Also, tell all the forces in Baishidao that I will give them three days. All the leaders of the forces must come to the Gu family to see me. Anyone who does not come will bear the consequences!"

"My child understands!"

Gu Yang looked slightly excited.

He understood that their Gu family was finally no longer keeping a low profile.

Gu Yang had already heard about what happened in the outside world. Gu Qingfeng killed Chu Tianxiong with one punch and killed Luo Yu with two moves. He was respected by the outside world as the strongest man in Baishidao.

Since their father is so capable, there is no need for the Gu family to continue to keep a low profile.

In fact.

Gu Yang has long wanted to revitalize the Gu family.

It was only because Gu Qingfeng always acted in a low-key manner that Gu Yang suppressed his inner impulse. But Gu Qingfeng's current actions destined the Gu family to become the largest force in Baishidao.

When Gu Yang left, Meng Peng whispered, "Master, according to what Luo Yu said before he died, the Tiegu Gang seems to have a relationship with the Shenwu King.

This matter is of great importance. If what he said is true, then we may have offended the King of Shenwu."

"How much do you know about the Shenwu King?"

Gu Qingfeng's expression remained unchanged.

Meng Peng said: "The name of the Divine Martial King is Pei Jing. The Pei family is the top family in Nanyang County. The Nanyang County Governor is hereditary to the Pei family. When Pei Jing was a teenager, it was rumored that he was born with supernatural powers. Later, he joined the Tianyang Sword Sect and became a true disciple of the Tianyang Sword Sect.

Fifteen years ago, the emperor was seriously ill and the court was in chaos. Coincidentally, a natural disaster struck Nanyang County. Pei Jing took advantage of the situation and within just a few years, he had the entire Nanyang County under his control.

Later, under the leadership of Pei Jing, the army annexed Chijiang County in less than ten years. With millions of troops under his command, he called himself the Godly King. "

"Now Pei Jing's Shenwu army is attacking Danyang County. Given Danyang County's strength, I'm afraid it may not be able to stop the Shenwu army.

Once Danyang County falls, Taishan County will inevitably become Pei Jing's target."

Meng Peng's words made Gu Qingfeng's expression change slightly.

A dozen years ago.

The emperor of the Taixuan Dynasty was seriously ill.

In addition, natural disasters continued and rebellions broke out all over the country. Gu Qingfeng had also heard about these things.

However, we don’t know much about the specific situation of the rebels on each side.

Now after hearing Meng Peng's words, Gu Qingfeng also realized that this Shenwu King was not simple.

In more than ten years, the other party has almost taken over three counties and has an army of one million. His strength is indeed very strong.

Gu Qingfeng said calmly: "Don't worry about the problem of the King of Shenwu for now. This is Taishan County, not Nanyang County. Besides, even if the King of Shenwu really takes down his troops and reaches Taishan County, it is still a question whether he can kill them to Baishidao.

What's more, Pei Jing might not take such a small Tiegu Gang seriously.

Instead of worrying about these problems, it is better to integrate Baishidao first!"

The matter of the Tiegu Gang.

Let Gu Qingfeng truly understand a truth.

If you want to survive in this chaotic world, you must possess sufficient power.

If he also had a million troops under his command, why would he be afraid of a small Shenwu King Pei Jing?

and so.

What Gu Qingfeng needs to do now is to first integrate the underworld forces of Baishidao and enhance the foundation of the Gu family as much as possible.

As long as they are strong enough, even if King Shenwu really captures Taishan County one day, the Gu family will have enough capital to negotiate with the other party.

If the Gu family was weak, they wouldn't even be qualified to stand before King Shenwu.

And then.

They are evil spirits and sorcerers.

Although the evil sorcerers seemed to have completely disappeared in recent years, things were not that simple in front of Gu Qingfeng.

Whether it is dealing with the King of Shenwu or trying to survive in troubled times, strength is something that cannot be lacking.
