Chapter 746: Chapter 100: The Wang Family "Promoted" to a 6th Grade Noble Family_2

Currently, the Wang Family, despite being extremely low-key, has become the invisible overlord in the Longzuo County South Six Guards.

Apart from the Hundred Islands Guard archipelago, which is unsuitable for planting, and the Zhenze Waang family who stubbornly defend their home base, the rest of the guards have almost become the Wang Family’s grain seed bases, producing high-quality grain seeds every year, bringing huge profits to the Wang Family.

However, after all, they are fellow countrymen. The Wang Family treats various planting families generously, and while satisfying its own interests, also tilts some benefits towards them as much as possible.

Hence, the Seventh, Eighth, and Ninth-Grade Noble Families in each guard have come to see planting grain seeds for the Wang Family as their primary industry, making a fortune and smiling from ear to ear following the Wang Family.

Even the Tuoba and Tantai families of the East Sea Guard, who used to have significant conflicts and fought fiercely, have finally reconciled under the Wang Family’s mediation, earnestly helping with the planting or participating in sea route transportation.

This day and age, who would go against money? Except for the Zhenze Waang family, who have 150,000 acres of fertile land and would rather die poor than plant the Wang Family’s crops.

In fact, other Eighth and Ninth-Grade Noble Families in Zhenze Guard have long secretly colluded with the Wang Family, planting for the Wang Family under a guise. The Waang family, even if aware, can only turn a blind eye, since they cannot defeat the Wang Family.

Regarding the Waang family’s non-cooperation, the Changning Wang Family lets them be, as 150,000 acres of farmland is insignificant to the current Wang Family.

On this day.

In Zhenze Waang Family’s main residence.

The slightly old Ancestor Wang Kunyuan listens to the young patriarch Wang Xingzu’s report, his face full of disbelief: "How is it possible, how is it possible? Wang Shouyong and Wang Luotong are merely in their eighties or nineties, yet have advanced to the Celestial Human Realm, such talent, is definitely the demeanor of a Celestial Pride!"

All along, Wang Kunyuan has been extremely proud of his Celestial Pride demeanor. Although the Wang Family indeed has Celestial Prides in the Academy, even Great Celestial Prides, with limitless prospects!

But he, Wang Kunyuan, after all, also has the pride of a Celestial Pride.

Wang Xingzu’s face is bitter: "Ancestor, who would have thought the Wang Family would hide so deeply, apart from those few in the Academy, the family actually hides three Celestial Prides, no, it should be four, reportedly the direct disciple of Master Dan Ding, Wang Shouye is also a Celestial Pride!"

"The number of Celestial Prides in their family..." Wang Kunyuan was astonished, "How could they appear in such droves!" For ordinary noble families, to have a Celestial Pride emerge through luck is already quite fortunate.

To have two, that certainly means ancestors have accumulated good deeds for countless generations.

For them to appear in droves, it has to be either the Wang Family’s bloodline suddenly reverting to ancestral quality, or some special encounter. Similar situations have happened in Daqian’s history.

And some noble families also have their own secrets to ensure that Celestial Prides do not experience generational gaps and so on!

"Ancestor, regardless, the Wang Family’s momentum has reached great success." Wang Xingzu bitterly advised, "In the future, they may advance to a Fifth-Grade Noble Family, or even a Fourth-Grade Noble Family! We can no longer oppose them."

Wang Kunyuan’s face was also full of bitterness; for the past fifty years, the Waang family has treated the Wang Family as an enemy. But judging by the Wang Family’s revealed heritage now, it seems they never even considered the Waang family.

"Ancestor, we could help the Wang Family plant grain seeds. Then, with the extra Qian gold we earn, buy some cultivation pills for you..." Wang Xingzu said, "As long as you can reach the peak of the Celestial Human Realm, even if our Waang Family sells all our assets, we must support you to reach the Purple Mansion Realm."

"The Purple Mansion Realm, huh?" Wang Kunyuan shook his head bitterly, "It’s too late. Most Celestial Prides challenge the Purple Mansion Realm, the latest by the age of three hundred and thirty. Enough, enough, Xingzu, go bow your head to the Wang Family and admit our wrongs. From now on, our Waang Family will help them plant crops. All resources obtained will be used entirely for cultivating the younger generations."

"Ancestor, you..." Wang Xingzu said anxiously.

"The decision is made, no, it’s up to me to prepare generous gifts and personally visit Patriarch Shouzhe to apologize. I hope the Wang Family, in the name of fellow countrymen, will not hold grudges." Wang Kunyuan completely understands that the Wang Family’s momentum is established, and the South Six Guards area will surely become the Wang Family’s traditional base.

The action of the Zhenze Waang family is not an accident.

The Seventh-Grade Noble Families of the South Six Guards, upon hearing the news, received invitations from the Changning Wang Family. They prepared generous gifts and decided that the family’s ancestors and patriarch would go together, first to congratulate the Wang Family, and then to attend the ceremony in Changning Ping’an Town when the date arrives.

No matter the real feelings, happy or not, at this moment, one must certainly put on a happy face.

And those most jubilant have to be the Eighth and Ninth-Grade Noble Families. With Seventh-Grade Noble Families above them, their ambitions are not big.

Now the Wang Family not only leads everyone to make money but also rises to become the only Sixth-Grade Noble Family in the South Six Guards, naturally becoming the regional overlord. In the future, should they encounter unsolvable problems, they will not be left without recourse.

Those Seventh-Grade Noble Families above them will also naturally not behave too arbitrarily moving forward. However, this time, the Wang Family’s promotion to Sixth-Grade ceremony did not invite the Eighth and Ninth-Grade Noble Families. After all, there are many Seventh-Grade Noble Families in the Longzuo County, and it is impossible to invite so many Eighth and Ninth Grades.

However, those Eighth and Ninth Grades didn’t mind and discussed among themselves to gather and observe from afar on the day of the promotion ceremony.

Leaving aside the Wang Family’s backyard, the Longzuo South Six Guards.

Many families in Longzuo County received invitations from the Wang Family, with noble families showing sincerity, preparing to send luxurious delegations to attend the ceremony. After all, in Longzuo County, aside from the two and a half Purple Mansion Families, there are only six Sixth-Grade Noble Families, and the Wang Family is just the seventh!

This alone indicates that the Changning Wang Family has already entered the top ten among the noble families of Longzuo.

In addition.

Some noble families outside Longzuo County also reacted. For instance, the Liaoyuan Fang Family, an ambitious newly promoted Purple Mansion Family, has a very good relationship with the Changning Wang Family. Wang Shouzhe’s second son, Wang Zongrui, married the direct lineage daughter of the Fang Family.

Time flies.

Half a year passes in the blink of an eye, and the Changning Wang Family’s promotion ceremony is imminent.

Guests begin to congregate at Changning.

On the Anjiang, cargo ships and passenger ships arrive one after another, docking at Dingpu Port.

Dingpu Port!

After more than seventy years of development and transformation, it has become one of Wang Family’s important ports and trading markets.

In addition, flying chariots descend in succession from the sky, parking at the Flying Palace Station.

Among them, five consecutive flying chariots land one after another, a group of predominantly young, lavishly dressed people emerge. At the forefront is a mature young man with two small mustaches.

With his hands behind his back, he looks around with extraordinary poise and sighs: "This Dingpu Port, it’s been just over thirty years since I, Wang Shihai, last came, yet the changes are so immense, it’s almost unrecognizable."

This man is Wang Shihai, the Celestial Pride of the Southern Desert Wang Family. He once returned to Changning Ping’an with Wang Shouzhe, helping to pioneer together, staying for many years before returning home.

Today’s Wang Shihai is no longer the dandy young man he used to be. At seventy-one years old, he broke through the barriers last year and advanced to the Celestial Human Realm. Such accomplishments rank well even among Celestial Prides.

"Grandpa the Thirty-Ninth~" a lazy, pleasant female voice said, "So this is Ping’an Town? It looks quite good indeed. As you mentioned, the ground is paved with gold. Considering you adhered to our agreement this time, you can delay the eight thousand Qian gold you owe me for half a year... but interest must not be reduced."

The woman is beautiful, but when it comes to money, her eyes light up.

"Wang Meitao." Wang Shihai’s face changed, "How can half a year be sufficient? Even if I work for Grandpa the Fourth, earning that much in half a year is impossible... you must remember, the ten thousand Qian gold you used as your initial wealth was given by me..."

This woman is Wang Meitao of the Southern Desert Wang Family. When she was just a snot-nosed brat, she was lucky to receive ten thousand Qian gold from Wang Shihai’s blind generosity.

The result was unstoppable.

She used her initial capital to play lending among the younger generations in the Southern Desert Wang Family, displaying an exceptional talent in this area. In less than fifty years, her initial capital has become millions of Qian gold.

Now, she is renowned among peers in the Southern Desert Wang Family, "celebrated" as the Blood-sucking Peach... even Wang Shihai has suffered at her hand.

"Grandpa the Thirty-Ninth~ debt repayment is only natural, I have already shown great leniency in giving you an extension." Wang Meitao said comfortably, her voice particularly lazy, "Aren’t you always boasting of your good relationship with Ancestor Shouzhe? You could ask him for help~"
