protect our patriarch

Chapter 910 Wang's "Ordinary" Clan
……

Dongxia Middle Earth.

Luojing, the capital of God.

As the capital of the Dongxia Dynasty, Luojing's prosperity is not only unique to the Dongxia Dynasty, but also unique to the entire sanctuary.

After counting the entire sanctuary, there is no second city that is so large, so prosperous, and so powerful.

This is actually not surprising.

Because the Dongxia Divine Dynasty is the only unified dynasty among the four major Divine Continents. The Divine Continent is the Divine Dynasty, and the Divine Dynasty is the Divine Continent.

The remaining three major divine continents are all in a state of separatist forces, and there are no more than two Taoist-level powerhouses in a single force, and the territory occupied by a single force does not exceed half of Dongxia's territory at most.

As the center of the entire Divine Continent, Luo Jing was naturally prosperous.

Luo Jing, which is so prosperous, naturally has an extremely developed economy.

The Ji family of the ancient god clan, as a family with a long history and a history of more than one million years, its family business is naturally extremely complex and huge, involving all aspects of life, among which the military refining industry is one of the pillar industries that the Ji family relies on for survival .

A remote suburb of Luojing Beicheng District.

There is a workshop under the name of Ji, named [Xingwang Workshop].

Although it bears the name of Ji's workshop, it is actually just an ordinary refining workshop run by members of the Ji's side branch.

This workshop is under the protection of the Ji family, and also undertakes a small number of Ji's military refining orders. Although most of the profits are eaten by the Ji family, through "refined management" and "reasonable tax avoidance" and other means, It can also lead a good life.

now.

Inside the Prosperous Workshop.

It was already dark, and Ximen Yaoqing was about to finish his day's refining work.

He dragged his exhausted body to change into the refining overalls, took out his [Wang's Communication Watch Standard Edition] from the closet, put it on, and immediately excitedly clicked on a familiar avatar to send a voice message.

"Tweety, I have reserved two tickets for the big picture of "The Rise of Shenwu 2" with my watch. I will wait for you at the old place tonight, and I will go to the big picture after dinner."

The so-called standard watch is actually an entry-level basic watch that Wang promotes to ordinary people. It is cheap and the basic communication costs are also low.

It is precisely because of this that Wang's communication wristwatches have become completely popular in Luojing. After more than ten years, they have almost reached the point of one wristwatch per capita.

One must know that although Luo Jing has a high-ranking god-emperor and bigwigs from top aristocratic families, most of them are still hundreds of millions of ordinary people.Many of them are from other holy palaces in Middle-earth, and even [Luo Jingpiao] who came to Luojing from overseas.

With dreams in mind, they hope to gain a foothold in Luojing, settle down, reproduce, and eventually become real Luojing people.

Ximen Yaoqing waited for a while, but did not see Tweety responding to the message. Instead, he received a group message from the immediate supervisor: "Everyone, don't rush away today. I have to stay tonight for an important meeting, and learn to understand the spirit of Patriarch Ji's speech." , reciting the patriarch's quotations, the noble son of the Ji family will come down for inspection in a few days."

What the hell is an important meeting at night.

Ximen Yaoqing's face darkened, and he almost smashed his watch.

Meeting, can't the meeting be held at work?Every time I have to work overtime for meetings!If the supervisor is in front of him right now, he really wants to slap him in the face.

It's a pity that no matter how much dissatisfaction there is, no matter how much grievance there is, seeing colleagues in the group send and receive one by one, Ximen Yaoqing still honestly sent a "received".

There is no way, Luo Jing has too many talents and the competition is too fierce, it is really not easy to survive here.

In fact, Ximen Yaoqing also came from a fairly decent family in a remote village of the Immortal Dynasty. The family owned land, property, and inheritance of supernatural powers.

As for him, Ximen Yaoqing, he was already a cultivator at the Heavenly Human Realm at a young age, and he was good at refining weapons. If he stayed in the family, it would not be a problem to become the elder of the family's Zifu in the future.

But he was not willing to spend his life in such a mediocre way, so he did not hesitate to travel across the ocean to Luojing to develop.

He thought that with his excellent weapon refining skills, he could break out a world in Luojing.But the reality gave him a heavy slap in the face.

Luo Jing is a gathering of elites from all over the world. He is quite dazzling in a small place, but once he arrives at Luo Jing, where this group of heroes gathers, he immediately becomes so ordinary and ordinary.

After repeated setbacks, Ximen Yaoqing finally gradually found his own position, found a day-to-day job in the refining workshop, and fell in love with a girlfriend who was also Luo Jingpiao.

He hopes that through his own efforts, his life will gradually improve.

First save money to buy the cheapest house in the northern outskirts of the city, live a down-to-earth life with Tweety, and then create better conditions for the child so that he can truly gain a foothold in Luojing in the future and become the real Luojing people.

It is also this dream that makes him work very hard and desperately every day, and he does not forget to study the refining technology and production technology hard in his spare time.

But when Ximen Yaoqing replied that he had received it, the supervisor scolded directly in the work group: "Ximen Yaoqing, did you send some refinement improvement technology plan to Er Fangzhu?"

"I just think there are problems with the current production process and some technologies..." Ximen Yaoqing said in defense.

These words instantly ignited the supervisor's anger, and in front of everyone in the work group, he yelled at his head and covered his face, such as "It's not a small skill but a scheming", "Why don't you go to heaven if you are capable", "Don't want to work hard Just get out of here" or something.

Ximen Yaoqing's face was flushed red, and he wanted to curse back several times, but he still gritted his teeth and endured it.

In the following study meeting, the supervisor didn't give Ximen Yaoqing a good face, and even used him as a model to make an example to other colleagues.

After finally surviving the meeting, he hurriedly left the workshop and checked the information on the watch, only to find that he had never received a reply from Tweety.

Not good, did something happen to Tweety?

He hurriedly dialed the voice communication, but within a few rings, the other party hung up, dial again, hang up again!

Ximen Yaoqing's heart gradually began to feel cold.

He didn't give up, and sent several caring messages one after another, and then waited anxiously.

After a whole stick of incense, Tweety finally wrote back to him: "I'm taking a shower, I haven't seen any news, I'm too tired today and don't want to go out again."

Ximen Yaoqing's heart was getting colder and colder, but he still didn't give up. He went directly to Tweety's rental house to look for her, but found that she was not at home.

The neighbor "kindly" told him that Tweety boarded a luxury flying chariot this evening.

Ximen Yaoqing went back to the rented house and practiced all night.

He knew that his Luo Jing dream should finally wake up.

He decided to go to the center of Luojing and take a look at the [Dingyun Shrine] where the legendary God Emperor lived.

He has been in Luojing for decades, but he has never seen the Dingyun Shrine up close.

He turned off his watch, took out his savings and took the public flying chariot in Luojing City, and it took half a month to arrive at Luojing Center.

Looking at the majestic Dingyun Shrine floating in the clouds above the sky, Ximen Yaoqing was shocked and speechless for a long time.

He knew that it was time to say goodbye and go back to the fairy country where he was born and raised.

But at this moment, he saw a recruitment advertisement played on a giant crystal screen in front of an ancient shop on the street.

Dongxia Military Industry Group was formally established, and now needs to recruit the following positions... Those who meet the requirements should call the application communication number...

Dongxia Military Industry Group?

Ximen Yaoqing's heart trembled.

Is it the recently rumored one, the military-industrial group jointly established by the Shenwu Wang family and the imperial court?
He is no stranger to the Shenwu Wang family.In recent decades, this Shenwu Wang family can be said to be in the limelight in Luojing, and its reputation is almost no less than those of the ancient saints. It is said that even the emperor has praised Shenwu Wang several times. The watch is Wang's masterpiece.

It's a pity that he had to save money, so he was willing to buy the standard version for himself, but he bought the deluxe version for Tweety, but he didn't expect...

ah~
He was melancholy in his heart, his eyes casually glanced over the conditions for recruiting a refiner, and then he was taken aback.

This condition... I actually meet the requirements of a refiner in the recruitment position?

He stood there in a daze for a long time, hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to give himself one last chance.

If he successfully applied for the job, he would stay, if not, he would leave Luo Jing soon.

He dialed the application newsletter and immediately got the application appointment number and interview location.

a few days later.

Ximen Yaoqing walked into Luojing's No. [-] luxury restaurant - [Yingxianlou] with trepidation.

He heard that those who are eligible to make a reservation for a meal here are at least true fairyland monks, or core members of those ancient families.

Even, even the maid or waiter who is in charge of serving the dishes and serving the tea here is at least a Zifujing who maintains a youthful appearance.

As a mere cultivator in the realm of heaven and man, if there is no accident, it is impossible for him to step into the Drunken Immortal Tower in this life, let alone a meal here, even a sip of tea will make him bankrupt.

After Ximen Yaoqing expressed his intention to come, a beautiful maid led him to the side hall to wait for the interview.

In this side hall alone, there are already dozens of interviewees waiting, all of them seem very confident.

There are some buffets in the side hall, all of which are some high-quality spiritual fruits and spiritual food pastries. The maid told him that he can eat as much as he likes for free, but Ximen Yaoqing just sat and waited silently.

After a while, several people walked into the side hall, the leader of which was a young woman.

The dress on her body was not woven with gold and jade like ordinary ladies from aristocratic families. It was beautifully embroidered and complicated, but the fabric was very expensive. It looked quite formal and capable. She also wore a pair of glasses on the bridge of her nose, which looked very intellectual.

She walks steadily, each step is firm and powerful, and every move seems to reveal a strong self-confidence.

Following behind her were two middle-aged men in imperial court uniforms, who were obviously court officials.

However, they were very polite to the young woman, saying "Miss Ke Ying, please."

Obviously, the woman named "Ke Ying" was the leader among them.

"Welcome all heroes to come to the application meeting." The woman walked up to the crowd, smiled and said in a confident and calm tone, "Let me introduce myself first, my name is Wang Keying, and I am in charge of hosting the application meeting No. 379. The two leaders It is the supervisor appointed by the imperial court to ensure the fairness and justice of this application meeting. Without further ado, we are now officially entering the application process."

After finishing speaking, she led people into the box and began to apply one by one.

At this time, Ximen Yaoqing understood from the whispered discussions of others that this Wang Keying was one of the elite members of the Shenwu Wang family.

It is said that she is only one hundred and thirty and forty years old, and she has already become a cultivator in the purple mansion.

As we all know, the higher the blood qualification, the faster the cultivation speed.With such a speed of cultivation, she will definitely not be able to escape the Lingxu Realm in the future. If there is a chance, it is not impossible to become a true immortal.

I heard that the Shenwu Wang family has many elites from the younger generation who have come to support the family development along with the elders, and this Ms. Wang Keying is one of them.

Hearing these words, Ximen Yaoqing felt envious for a while.

She really deserves to be a rich lady from a wealthy family. Once she debuts, she is the pinnacle that ordinary people like them have to look up to all their lives.

As the interview progressed, interviewees walked into the box one after another, and then left quickly.

Some of these interviewers came out with smiles on their faces, while others were annoyed.The atmosphere outside the box unknowingly became dignified.

Ximen Yaoqing was also very nervous.

In the midst of suffering, I don't know how long it took, and finally it was Ximen Yaoqing's turn.

He entered the box apprehensively, and saluted the people inside humbly.

"You don't need to be nervous." Wang Keying said with a soft smile, "Sit down and have a sip of tea first, let's talk slowly."

As he spoke, a maid served freshly brewed spirit tea.

"Thank you, Miss Ke Ying."

Ximen Yaoqing hastily thanked him respectfully, and then he dared to sit down on the chair opposite to Miss Ke Ying, and then took a small sip of the tea cup.

Feeling the warm tea soup flowing through his throat, with a refreshing tea fragrance, he finally felt much more at ease.

Seeing this, Wang Keying chatted with Ximen Yaoqing as if they were chatting. At the beginning, they talked about hobbies and so on. Gradually, the topics involved colleagues and leaders. In the end, Wang Keying actually chatted with him about refining technology Come.

When talking about the previous topics, Ximen Yaoqing still felt quite embarrassed and seemed very cramped, but when he talked about his profession, that is, the refining of weapons, he immediately became very confident, and talked all kinds of eloquently. It even pointed out some small mistakes in the technology that Wang Keying said.

Words can be deceiving, but the light in the eyes cannot be deceiving.

Wang Keying nodded secretly.

The mistake she made when she talked about technology just now was also intentional, just to see how the other party would react.

"You mentioned earlier that you had a technical disagreement with the leader. You submitted a small plan to optimize the refiner, but the other party did not approve of it. Can you expand on it?" Wang Keying asked seriously.

"This..." Ximen Yaoqing hesitated for a while, and finally started to narrate, and handed over the small proposal to Wang Keying.

This plan made Wang Keying's eyes light up slightly.

Although Wang's production has long had a similar plan, it can be seen from Ximen Yaoqing's ability to think of these that he still has his own ideas in refining weapons, and he is also a person who is brave in innovation and exploration.

"Your basics are not bad, but you haven't gone through professional and systematic studies. If you want to join the Dongxia Military Industry Group as a refiner, we need to train you for a period of three years." Wang Keying said carefully, "But in order to ensure your Life, during the training period, our Wang family will provide basic salary subsidies. Based on your position and conditions, you will be subsidized 150 Lingshi per year during the training period, and free board and lodging."

"After passing the assessment and officially starting work, the basic salary is 350 spirit stones, two months of flexible holidays per year, one month of off-duty training courses, overtime subsidies for overtime work, free board and lodging, and transportation subsidies. If there are improved technologies, optimized processes, etc. If you perform meritorious service, there will be additional bonuses and the possibility of promotion. The specific terms are here, Mr. Ximen can take a closer look."

How much?

Ximen Yaoqing was shocked.

150 Lingshi subsidy during the training period?There are 350 spirit stones for the official start?There are also various holidays with clear terms, subsidies, etc.?

You know, he is now in Ji's Xingwang Workshop, and his total income in a year is only about a hundred spirit stones, not including board and lodging!And Luo Jing's survival pressure is extremely high, even in the suburbs, the cost of accommodation and food is high, so his life is very tight.

If the salary can really be given so much, won't his future life be better?

Ximen Yaoqing was still in a daze when he finished signing the contract and walked out of the interview room.

He lingered at the gate of Zuixian Tower for a long time without leaving, feeling like he was in a dream.

Is Miss Wang Keying the goddess sent by heaven to save him?

"Huh? Isn't that the workshop colleague Dugu Xingchen?"

Soon, Ximen Yaoqing noticed that he was not the only one from Xingwang Workshop to apply for a new job.

Dugu Xincheng was also taken aback when he saw him, but he didn't come over to say hello to him, he just nodded at him and left quickly.

Ximen Yaoqing stared at his back for a while, then started to be dazed again.

At this time, a figure came out from Yingxian Tower behind him.It turned out that it was Wang Keying who took advantage of the intermission in the middle of the interview to take a breather.

Noticing Ximen Yaoqing standing at the door, she took the initiative to say hello: "Young Master Ximen, is there something else for you?"

"Ke, Miss Ke Ying." Ximen Yaoqing blushed with embarrassment, and didn't dare to look at Wang Keying, "I just can't believe that I can pass the interview, and I'm still a little dazed."

"I feel that you have great potential. Do a good job in the future and don't let go of my trust." Wang Keying encouraged him with a sweet smile, "I hired you as an interviewer. If you don't perform well later, you will implicate me in deducting points." of."

"Ah, this, I will definitely not implicate Ms. Ke Ying." Ximen Yaoqing was startled, and hastily declared his position solemnly.

After a pause, he couldn't help feeling a little emotional again: "I didn't expect that a high-ranking lady like Miss Ke Ying would be so approachable."

He couldn't help recalling the appearance of the so-called Mr. Ji when he was about to come to the workshop for inspection, which caused the whole workshop to hold a meeting overnight to study.And the so-called "noble son", compared to Miss Ke Ying, seems to be more than a step behind.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not a young lady." Wang Keying smiled and waved her hands, "I'm in our Shenwu Wang family, and I'm just an ordinary girl from a straight line."

Ordinary Zhimai people?

Ximen Yaoqing showed astonishment and shook his head in disbelief: "Impossible, impossible! Even in an ancient protoss like the Ji family, Miss Ke Ying is definitely the best among the younger generation."

Wang Keying smiled helplessly.

Misunderstandings like this happen every day.Although she really worked hard, when she graduated from the higher ethnic studies class, her overall ranking was only ranked tenth!

She admits that she is a young elite clansman, but if she is said to be the best, she would feel blush.

There are people graduating from advanced ethnic studies every year. There are too many people like her, but she is not considered a leader.

However, this time the family was coming to Luojing to develop, and she also signed up immediately, just to win more opportunities and give herself more room for development.However, there are many young clansmen who have the same plan as her, and they still have to roll up when they get to Luojing.

The two were chatting when suddenly another group of people came out from the entrance of Yingxian Building.

It turned out that Wang Ningxi had just met a holy king of the Xuanyuan family in the Yingxian Tower, and he was sending him out at the moment.

When the holy king was sent away, he prepared to board a flying chariot accompanied by his family general.

Seeing this, Wang Keying hurriedly apologized to Ximen Yaoqing, then took a few steps to follow, and called out respectfully and sweetly: "Ningxi Patriarch."

Wang Ningxi paused and looked at Wang Keying. She felt that the girl looked familiar, but she couldn't name her.

In order to avoid Wang Ningxi's embarrassment, Wang Keying hastily stepped forward and explained respectfully: "Ning Xi's ancestor, my name is Wang Keying, and I am a child of the 'Ke' generation of the Sixth Patriarch."

"Oh, it's Ke Ying from Shoulian's sixth uncle's family." Wang Ningxi looked "suddenly", then looked at her kindly, and smiled, "I remember you, working in Luojing is going well recently, right?"

The Wang clan now has a large number of people, and outstanding young people can be found everywhere.The young generation who came to Luojing to support this time alone has thousands of people, all of whom are scattered in various positions with layers of management. Without Wang Ningxi's management, it is naturally impossible to recognize everyone.

"Thank you for your concern, ancestor Ning Xi. Everything went smoothly and was quite challenging." Wang Keying said respectfully, "Now I am mainly doing the recruitment work of Dongxia Military Industry Group."

"It's good, start from the bottom and work hard, accumulate experience, I believe you will do it." Wang Ningxi said after a few words of encouragement, "Now I have an appointment with your Seventh Patriarch, so I'm leaving first. After I have been busy for a while, I will treat you little pillars of the family to dinner."

"Thank you for your encouragement, Ancestor Ning Xi, see you again, Ancestor Ning Xi."

Wang Keying stood where she was, and respectfully watched Wang Ningxi's flying chariot leave.

It wasn't until Wang Ningxi's flying chariot was completely out of sight that she looked away, and with a touch of excitement on her face, she couldn't help muttering: "I didn't expect to be so lucky. I could meet Ning Xi's ancestor when I came out to take a breath." , I have to post a circle of friends..."

Ximen Yaoqing on the side looked messy in a gust of wind.

Looking at this posture, it seems that Ms. Ke Ying is really not the proud daughter of the Shenwu Wang family... This is outrageous... What kind of terrible family is the Wang family?

＊＊＊＊＊＊
After half a day.

The branch purchased by Wang's Alchemy Headquarters in Luojing, in the backyard study.

Dressed in a blue robe, the personable "Seventh Patriarch of the Wang Clan" Wang Shouye looked at the two women in front of him with complicated expressions.

Of these two people, one is the assistant Dongfang Lingrou who has been following him silently for a long time, and has gradually become his most trusted right-hand man, while the other is the imperial daughter Luo Jia who is dressed in gorgeous clothes, domineering and majestic, and has an immortal temperament. .

No, to be precise, the current Luo Jia is already the Empress of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and she should be called "Emperor Luo Jia" or "Empress Luo Jia".

Because they have been sparing no effort to keep up with Wang's pace and hug Wang's thigh in the industry, the Great Zhou Empire in the world of Shenwu has already undergone earth-shaking changes, and its strength is not what it used to be.

This time, taking advantage of the momentum of the development of the Shenwu world to the sanctuary, Da Zhou also took advantage of the trend to expand the industrial territory to the sanctuary, and saved his own real immortal capital early on.

Under her leadership, Da Zhou will become a fairy dynasty sooner or later.

It's a pity that Empress Luo Jia's greatest wish is not to be the empress of the fairy dynasty, if not out of responsibility, she actually doesn't even want to be this empress.

She is even jealous of Dongfang Lingrou, because no matter when and where, Dongfang Lingrou can silently stay by Shouye's side.

Dongfang Lingrou, on the other hand, was somewhat hostile and resistant to Luo Jia, as if she didn't want her to find opportunities to get close to Senior Shouye every now and then.

From Dongfang Lingrou's point of view, this empress Luojia followed her to Luojing this time, and said that she wanted to invest and develop in Luojing. The senior had an evil intention and wanted to take advantage of the high emperor's distance to do something shameless.

Both women were silent.

The atmosphere in the study gradually became weird.

Looking at this scene, Wang Shouye couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart.

I, Wang Shouye, in this life, just want to make a pill quietly and pay off the merits of the family, why is it so difficult?
Just as he was thinking hard and thinking about how to break the deadlock, Wang Ningxi entered the study under the leadership of his family general.

Seeing the scene in the study, Wang Ningxi faltered, and immediately cupped his hands and said, "Patriarch Shouye, it seems that I came at the wrong time."

As he said that, he immediately wanted to leave the study and run away.

The private life of the elders is not something he can get involved in.

"No, you came at the right time." When Wang Shouye saw him, he immediately kept him as if he had seen a savior, "Ning Xi, I have something important to discuss with you."

"Master Ning Xi drinks tea." Dongfang Lingrou smiled softly and poured good tea for Ning Xi.

On the other side, Empress Luojia seemed not to be outdone, and also poured tea for Ning Xi with a smile: "Master Ning Xi, I will go to your place for tea in two days, so I won't bother you today."

Saying that, the two women looked at each other across the air, and then left the study respectively, leaving a private space for the men to talk.

"Tsk tsk!"

Looking at the two cups of tea on the left and the right in front of him, Wang Ningxi couldn't help laughing and teasing: "The ancestor of Shouye is really blessed, no matter where he goes, he is accompanied by a confidante."

Wang Fugui set off for the World Exterminating Demon Realm. Over the years, Wang Ningxi and Wang Shouye have basically presided over the main affairs of the Wang family in Luojing. No scruples.

"It's not big or small, even the ancestors dare to tease." Wang Shouye knocked Ning Xi's head angrily, and said helplessly, "It's too difficult for me, fourth brother insists on me coming to Luojing to preside over the overall situation. You I also know that I am really not good at dealing with people. Alas~~ I really miss the days when I was quietly learning alchemy in Changning Weicheng."

In a trance, Wang Shouye's eyes seemed to reappear the scene of that year.

He even remembered when he was still learning alchemy in the alchemy workshop, the furnishings in the room, and the excitement when he practiced over and over again and finally raised the refining rate of Xiaopeiyuan Dan to a stable six.

Back then, the Wang family was a small ninth-rank family, and he was just a small alchemy apprentice, relying on his in-laws to learn the art of alchemy.

At that time, he never imagined that in just over 1000 years, the Wang family would be able to get to where it is today.

Looking back, it was really embarrassing.
