Longevity: Beginning from Becoming a Clan Leader

“…”

“Brother Chen, look, they are all young and strong, and a few old and weak people are also capable people. What do you think of the price?”

“Where do all these people come from?”

The man named Chen, who looked very young, only seventeen or eighteen years old, asked expressionlessly.

“Hey, Brother Chen, you are making it difficult for me. In our line of work, you are not…”

Looking at Chen Xiang’s expressionless face, he felt panic for no reason, “…The sources are very diverse, some are from Liushui County, some are from Hexia County… some are from scholarly families and some are from good families…”

“Well, here, this is the money.”

Chen Xiang nodded and handed over the money bag.

“The next batch will go to Uncle Shuiwen.”

“Hey, yes.”

At this time.

Someone has come over and checked the slaves one by one.

Soon, nodding to Chen Xiang, Chen Xiang nodded slightly, and said coldly, “You all, follow.”

A group of slaves raised their heads at this moment and looked at Chen Xiang hopefully.

Soon.

At the training ground built by the Chen family outside Qinghe Town.

It is also the place where the grain tax team is stationed.

This group of slaves came over.

Buckets of porridge have been prepared, and several muscular maids who can run horses are waving ladle, looking stronger and more fierce than men!

In the past month, the power of the Chen family has expanded greatly, mainly because of the purchase of many slaves.

Maids! Servants! Guards! Cooks!

In addition to these, the main big heads are filled into the grain tax team.

Including this batch of slaves, the number has reached more than 200.

Of course, out of respect for the court, Chen Nuo changed the name and called the team formed by these people the Farming Group, which was mainly bought to cultivate the fields.

Well, that's what Chen Nuo said to the outside world.

Believe it or not.

Anyway, the big families in An County all agree, and everyone thinks so.

This is also the effect of Chen Nuo's integration into the class during this period of time. If it were an ordinary upstart, someone would have come to blame, blackmail, or even confiscate his home, and he would never lie to you with his eyes open.

"Go, someone will arrange it inside."

After saying that, Chen Xiang turned around and left.

Without saying anything more.

Just then.

"This sir!"

A voice stopped Chen Xiang.

The slaves let the man out in fear.

The man was holding a swaddling cloth, with a resolute expression. Although he was thin, he could still vaguely see some traces of martial arts practice.

Chen Xiang did not speak, and several members of the grain tax team came over with unfriendly eyes.

"Sir, I am from Xiaguo."

?

As soon as these words came out, Chen Xiang was really startled.

Xiaguo, the world's largest country.

The key is, how did a Xiaguo person get here?

Seeing that he successfully attracted Chen Xiang's attention, even if Wei Shuao was confident in his heart, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief at this moment.

"Tell me."

"Sir, I am from Yuzhou, Xia State, a coastal person. I have something important to tell you."

"What do you want?"

"Whatever you give me, I will take."

Chen Xiang looked at this person with a paralyzed face, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.

"Go ahead."

"There was a locust plague in Xia State, and there were also people rebelling. Although it was only a small group of rebels, the Emperor of Xia still took it very seriously and sent troops to suppress it. However, after suppressing it, this army did not stop marching. Its direction of march... was the Juyan County of Yue State."

! !

Chen Xiang's always paralyzed face fluctuated slightly.

"Let's go."

?

Wei Shuao was stunned. Did he fail?

It shouldn't be. Any local force with a little foresight would pay attention to this kind of news.

According to what he saw along the way, although the Chen family who bought him seemed to have just made a fortune, they were very organized, powerful and ambitious. The head of the family must have at least foresight.

And the man in front of him was entrusted with this task, so his ability should be good. How could he not see the importance of this news?

What went wrong?

The long-term hunger made his brain feel dizzy, and some things could not be thought of.

"What are you standing there for?"

Chen Xiang's cold voice woke him up.

But he saw Chen Xiang standing in front and turned back to look at him in confusion.

Wei Shuao's brain reacted a little slowly.

He got the meaning wrong!

He hurriedly followed.

...

Courtyard.

Chen Nuo is studying medicine.

Medicine and martial arts are inseparable.

Perhaps, there are some medicines that can play a great role for warriors.

At worst, speed up the breakthrough of the flesh realm or speed up the cleansing of the flesh realm, these can still be tried.

"Ginseng, red dates, angelica, deer antler, tiger whip..."

"Hiss... The medicinal properties seem to be a little wrong. It's sunny, and I don't want a blue pill."

Chen Nuo changed pot after pot, and there were more than a dozen ginsengs next to him.

Knock, knock.

There was a gentle knock on the door.

"Master, Master Chen Xiang is here to visit."

"Yes, let him in."

Chen Nuo said without turning his head.

Soon, Chen Xiang came in.

Along the way, he simply asked about Wei Shuao's situation and took the baby in his arms.

Wei Shuao knew why this was so and did not resist at all.

Looking at the door that faintly smelled of medicine, Wei Shuao became excited.

Whether he could stay safe in the future depended on this.

What reached his ears was a young, lazy voice.

To be honest, it didn't sound like the voice of a clan leader.

But he didn't look up, this was basic etiquette.

"Chen Xiang?"

"Clan leader, this man is a slave who just came. He said he came from Xia Country. I checked and his behavior is indeed different..."

"Oh?"

The man's voice was a little puzzled.

He stood up and came to him.

"Wei Shuao?"

"Yes, my name is Wei Shuao."

"Have you learned etiquette?"

"I have a little family education."

"Well, raise your head and tell me."

He looked at it.

It was a slightly handsome face, but full of strong masculinity.

Young!

Too young!

Is he eighteen years old?

"Sir, I came from Xia Country..."

"... According to the marching speed, it will take at most half a month to reach the border of Juyan County."

He finished speaking and looked at Chen Nuo quietly.

Unexpectedly, Chen Nuo looked at him with a fiery gaze.

"You are good, very good."

"Chen Xiang, take him down to wash up and prepare some light food. From now on, you will be my Chen family's servant, how about it?"

House servant.

An alternative name for a servant.

There are two types.

One is a slave, and then always a slave, but because of the powerful ability and the long-standing emotional reasons, it is gradually not regarded as a slave, and has power and property, and is also called a house son.

One is an outsider who joins, not a slave, but a servant with a contract of employment, or even an attached person with his own servants.

Obviously, Chen Nuo gave the first one.

Slave...house son...house servant...

Wei Shuao struggled with his face, and finally took a look at the child in Chen Xiang's arms.

All the resentment disappeared.

"Yes, Master."
