"Mr. Qin, it's meaningless to compete with words. How about this, let's make a bet — if the Guo family wins, you'll let me go, and you'll work for me in the future. If you win, I'll listen to you and work for you in the future. How about that? "Guo Songyang made a cunning proposal.
"What qualifications do you have to bet with me now?" Qin Lang said lightly, "You don't even have the capital to gamble, and you don't even have the qualifications to be a gambler. Do you know that?"
"Uh … You should know that I'm officially a member of the royal family in the future," Guo Songyang said.
"You might as well keep dreaming if you want to be a descendant of the royal family." Qin Lang sneered and threw Guo Songyang into the Infinite Poison Sac again.
Then, Qin Lang found Xu Shiping and asked him to prepare for tomorrow's situation.
"What? It's tomorrow? "Xu Shiping felt that it was too rushed.
"Tomorrow is the Awakening of Insects, the beginning of spring thunder in the Divine Land of Hua Xia. The dormant creatures are awakened, and the Dragon Veins are revived. Offering sacrifices to the heavens at this time will naturally bring the greatest blessing from heaven and earth."
"I know it's the Awakening of Insects tomorrow. I'm just saying that it's too rushed, and I don't have time to prepare." Xu Shiping said worriedly, "You also attended the banquet yesterday. Can't you see my current situation in Nanhai Province?"
"Of course I can see it, so I've already made arrangements." Qin Lang said to Xu Shiping, "You just have to remember one thing. When the time comes, just treat it as if you're in Pingchuan Province. Just do what you need to do to deploy the troops."
"I say, Qin Lang, you're usually a smart person. Why are you so muddle-headed today? If everyone listens to my commands like in Pingchuan Province, I wouldn't have to worry about it," Xu Shiping said.
"I know these people won't listen to your commands, but I've already made arrangements at yesterday's banquet. But don't ask about the specifics. You just need to command your people. If we can stop the Guo family's sacrifice, Uncle Xu, you'll be the number one hero. "
"Just don't become public enemy number one," Xu Shiping said. "The two elders will send someone over to deal with this matter, right?"
In Xu Shiping's opinion, if the two elders of the Bao and Wu Clans were willing to send someone over to handle this matter, the pressure on him would be greatly reduced. After all, the Bao and Wu Clans were super clans in the Imperial Capital.
"I'm afraid I can't." Qin Lang dispelled Xu Shiping's thoughts. "I've already contacted Old Master Bao. They'll stay in the Capital. We can only rely on ourselves. Once we're done here, the two elders will launch a thunderous attack.
Destroy all of the Guo family's factions in the Imperial Capital! "
After listening to Qin Lang's explanation, Xu Shiping immediately understood the seriousness of this matter. Although this incident happened in Nanhai Province, the real confrontation was in the Imperial Capital. The parties involved were a few big shots and a few super clans in the Imperial Capital. The failure of any one of them would bring about an unimaginable shock. However, it was precisely because of this that the two elders of the Bao and Wu Clans couldn't mobilize more people to support Xu Shiping because they would definitely focus all their forces on the Imperial Capital.
"Looks like we can only rely on ourselves?" Xu Shiping and Qin Lang smiled bitterly.
"We can only rely on ourselves!" Qin Lang smiled relaxedly. "But it's enough for us."
"Fine, we can't avoid it this time anyway. Let's fight to the death," Xu Shiping said decisively. He had thought that after becoming a governor, his future career would be smoother and smoother. Little did he know that the officialdom was fraught with danger. Even as a governor, he was unable to avoid the political storm.
*****
The next day, the lunar calendar, Jingzhe.
In the Hua Xia continent, all living things were revived and hundreds of insects were chirping.
To many people in the Hua Xia continent, this was just a lunar calendar festival. However, to people like Qin Lang, today was no ordinary day because the dragon energy of the dragon vein had begun to gather rapidly. A brand new dragon vein was about to be formed!
Once the new dragon vein was formed, the providence of the Hua Xia continent would also change. It was as if a sleeping dragon under the land of Hua Xia was suddenly awakened and ended its hibernation. It wanted to soar into the sky, so those who rode on it and attached themselves to it would ascend to the heavens. As for the rest of the people, they would be affected by the great change of heaven and earth.
However, if this dragon wanted to completely end its hibernation, it wouldn't be enough to just rely on the Jingzhe. They still needed to perform a grand ritual to use the providence of heaven and earth to completely awaken this dragon vein.
Qin Lang didn't know how the Guo family would perform the ritual because even Guo Songyang, the direct descendant of the Guo family, didn't know. However, Qin Lang found another way. Xu Shiping would help Qin Lang confirm one thing: because this was a grand ritual, Ma Tengjian, the second-in-command of Nanhai Province in the Guo family's camp, would definitely attend it in person. Not only would he attend, but he would also lead other important figures in Nanhai Province to participate.
However, in order to deceive people and to keep up with the times, the name of this ritual was not "Worship to Heaven", "Sacrifice", or "Memorial", but "Forum". The word "Forum" had a rich connotation. In the past, when it was mentioned, many people thought that it was just a place to post on the Internet. Later, they learned that meetings and activities could also be called a forum. Today, in the east of Nanhai Province, near the sea, an important international financial forum was being held. Ma Tengjian was the representative of Nanhai Province in this financial forum. Apart from Ma Tengjian, all the important figures in related fields in Nanhai Province were attending this financial forum.
After hearing the news from Xu Shiping, Qin Lang was almost immediately sure that this forum was a sham. Today was the day of the opening celebration of this forum, so naturally, there would be a grand ceremony. The Guo family and the people of the Technique Sect could use this excuse to smoothly complete the process of worshipping the heavens. Moreover, it could be justified.
Although time was tight, Qin Lang was well prepared. Just last night, Qin Lang had already determined the specific location of the ritual and made the corresponding arrangements.
At nine in the morning, the international forum officially opened.
The meeting was personally hosted by Ma Tengjian, the second-in-command of Nanhai Province. The guests of this forum were all important figures, and many of them were the direct descendants of the major families in the Imperial Capital. Even the foreign friends who participated in this forum felt that the standards of this forum were very high and that they felt very honored. They thought that the Hua Xia government was deliberately giving them face.
Although the guests who attended the forum were all important figures, the weather was not on their side. The entire conference center was shrouded in a misty rain early in the morning.
"Rumble!"
When Ma Tengjian announced the official start of the opening celebration of this financial forum, the sound of spring thunder rumbled above their heads.
