In the past, the Huang Family Auction House was the largest auction house in King City. Their reputation was very good, and the items they auctioned were very honest. The commission they took was also very reasonable, winning the trust of everyone.
Unfortunately, because they offended the Medicine King's Pavilion, they were uprooted overnight. This faction that had a good relationship with them did not even dare to say a word.
At that time, Huang Changjian was only a young man. He had only just started the auction business when he faced the tragedy of losing his family. This was a huge blow to him.
In these ten years, there was not a moment when he did not want to take revenge. Unfortunately, the Medicine King's Pavilion was getting stronger and stronger, and he could not see the slightest chance of revenge.
This time, Yang Wu suddenly slapped the Medicine King's Pavilion in the face. Only then did Huang Changjian see a glimmer of hope. Perhaps Yang Wu was the one who could help him take revenge.
He built the auction house for the Yang Family with his own intentions.
Yang Wu was not a fool. Huang Changjian's expression was so clear that he immediately knew the other's intentions. However, he had no choice but to accept such a person. It was just like the saying, "The enemy of my enemy is my friend."
"It's fine if you want to use me to take revenge, but you must work for me loyally. If you have any ulterior motives, no one can protect you." Yang Wu said sternly.
After saying this, a powerful aura was released from his body. The entire hall was filled with a suffocating feeling. Even a king level figure like Guo Xiafei felt the pressure.
"Count Shaowu is so strong!" The same thought appeared in everyone's mind.
Huang Changjian said with a determined expression, "I will not disappoint the Marquis. If I have any thoughts of betrayal, let me be struck by lightning and die."
There were not many people left in the Huang Family. Not only did he want to take revenge, but he also wanted to find a way out for the Huang Family. How could he dare to act rashly?
"Good. Later, you, the beautiful advisor, and this Steward Lin will discuss business matters together." Yang Wu nodded. Then his gaze fell on the ugly man and asked, "What do you want to do here?"
This man was really ugly. His eyes were sunken in, his nose was like an eagle's hook, his lips were extremely thick, and his clothes were sloppy. He was even more unsightly than Geng Jian.
No matter who saw him, they would find him an eyesore at first glance. It must have been hard on him to be so ugly.
The ugly man's eyes revealed a bit of pride as he replied, "I know strategy and can be the head advisor of the Yang Residence."
Lu Zhi couldn't take it anymore. He immediately said, "Pang Yuan, so you're here to steal my job."
Pang Yuan grinned with his yellow teeth and replied, "If I have the real stuff, why would I be afraid of being robbed?"
Yang Wu had never been one to judge a book by its cover, but not only was Pang Yuan ugly, but he also had bad breath, which made him unable to see clearly. He hurriedly waved his hand and said, "My family already has a grand master, so we don't lack one for the time being. You can go back first."
Pang Yuan's pupils constricted as displeasure appeared on his face. He opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn't say anything. He revealed an extremely disappointed expression and turned around with the intention of leaving.
Lu Zhi hurriedly went forward and pulled Pang Yuan back, saying, "Pang Yuan, don't be in such a hurry to leave. You can stay and be my assistant."
"Hmph, your lord is blind and doesn't like me. What's the use of me staying?" Pang Yuan said in an extremely angry tone.
"How could that be? My lord is just thinking for my sake. If you, Pang Yuan, are stronger than me, my lord will treat you well." Lu Zhi replied. At the same time, he kept giving Yang Wu meaningful glances, indicating for Yang Wu to speak up and persuade Pang Yuan to stay.
Yang Wu didn't know why Lu Zhi was trying so hard to persuade Pang Yuan to stay, but he still said, "You can stay for now. If your strategy is truly outstanding, this marquis will naturally put you in an important position."
Pang Yuan said rather proudly, "I, Pang Yuan, am unyielding and unyielding. Why would I need your pity?"
"Then if I bestow upon you an Acupoint Opening Pill, would you like it?" Yang Wu asked.
Pang Yuan immediately turned around and bowed to Yang Wu, saying, "Pang Yuan greets my lord. May my lord live for thousands of years."
Everyone present instantly wanted to vomit.
What happened to being unyielding and unyielding?
What happened to not needing pity?
In the blink of an eye, he was bending at the waist for a pill. This guy really had no backbone.
Yang Wu was also speechless. He hurriedly waved his hand and said, "You can be Lu Zhi's subordinate for now. If he says you're qualified, then you can stay. If you're not, then you can leave. My Yang Residence doesn't keep idle people."
Pang Yuan revealed a smile that was uglier than crying, saying, "My lord, you can rest assured. I, Pang Yuan, know astronomy, geography, the eight trigrams, and the five elements. I'm proficient in everything … …"
"Stop bragging. If you keep bragging, the sky will collapse." Yang Wu interrupted. He discovered that each of these strategists really knew how to brag.
Yang Wu asked people to prepare a banquet and ate with these people. At the same time, he further understood the situation of these people.
Geng Jian had come to become the King of Medicine; Guo Xiafei had come to reminisce on the surface, but in reality, he probably had other plans; Huang Changjian had pledged his loyalty for revenge; Lin Kai had come for business interests; Shu Luoqiu had come to follow him to become the King of Medicine; Pang Yuan had come to display his talent.
These six people had different purposes and different skills. Yang Wu took them in to strengthen the strength of the Yang Family, and at the same time, to develop his own team.
Among these people, he didn't know who was a useful talent. He had to observe for a few more days to figure it out.
With the momentum of the Yang Family, the Yang Residence was constantly expanding. Some of the surrounding land and houses had already been bought. The death legion's people were supervising the construction of courtyards and pavilions.
… …
While the Yang Family was expanding in full swing, a major event happened in the city. Yang Wu's enthusiasm for becoming a Marquis was submerged. That was, Prince Fu An and Prime Minister Song wanted to unite by marriage.
This news was very explosive. Prince Fu An had the royal blood and was a Prince. Prime Minister Song was the first Prime Minister and had the rank of Marquis. They were all powerful figures. So, at this time, they suddenly announced their marriage, which really made people's imagination run wild.
Generally speaking, with their status, they will not easily unite by marriage. It was inevitable that the Emperor would have some ideas. But, they already did it, as if they were not afraid of those gossips.
In fact, it's not that they were not afraid, but their current situation was very bad. They must unite to deter their enemies.
In addition, they naturally had other plans.
Since Yang Wu returned, Tang Jiaoyan and Song Youming didn't dare to go out half a step. They were afraid of being retaliated by Yang Wu. But now, after the two families announced their marriage, as long as they get married, they should be able to make Yang Wu worry about them.
So, they went out with ease.
During this period of time, they could be said to be suffocated.
Each of them took their own attendants, and dozens of people went out of the Imperial City.
This time, they were all on guard to see if Yang Wu will send people to deal with them. But after a day, they didn't find anything, so they relaxed.
On the way back, Tang Jiaoyan was riding on a fine colt. She was dressed in gorgeous clothes and looked like a flower in the middle of a competition. She was quite dazzling. From time to time, she would let out a bell-like laughter. Her mood was quite happy.
Song Youming was riding on a handsome black horse. He smiled and said: Junzhu, this time, you can rest assured. That little bastard will not dare to do anything to us.
Hehe, if he dares to deal with us, his Yang Family will be destroyed! Tang Jiaoyan smiled proudly.
Yes, after we get married, he can only live with his tail between his legs. Song Youming responded.
Tang Jiaoyan asked: When will your eldest sister and second brother come back?
"Before we get married, they will definitely come back," Song Youming replied. Song Youming replied. After pausing for a moment, he added, "My sister already has the strength of a king. She's a peerless genius in the Transcendent Realm. When she returns, I'll have her suppress that little bastard and resolve any future problems."
"How great would it be if we can also enter the transcendent world?" Tang Jiaoyan said yearningly.
"Isn't that simple? When my eldest sister comes back, let her bring us in."
"Okay, you said it. We will see more young talents there. Just thinking about it makes me burst with joy."
Song Youming suddenly felt a little green on his forehead. Just as he was about to say something, he saw an army rushing in their direction.
This army was riding incomparably majestic horses, and their running speed was extremely fast, causing a thick cloud of dust to rise from the ground. The person in the lead shouted, "Get out of the way, do not obstruct our army's official business, or else we will kill without mercy."
"Kill without mercy!" The other people in the army shouted in unison.
There were 500 people in this army. All of them had the strength of a general. The power of this army was really scary.
Those bodyguards in front of Tang Jiaoyan and Song Youming were so scared that they trembled. The weapons in their hands fell to the ground.
The leader shouted: "You are so bold. We are from Fu 'an Prefecture. This is our Princess."
The strength of the leader was not bad. He was already a top general. His composure was quite good.
"I don't care who you are. If you don't get out of the way, I will treat you as an enemy!" The army shouted again.
Five hundred horses rushed over. The soldiers were releasing a strong murderous aura. They were all people who had seen blood on the battlefield. How could ordinary people resist them?
"Princess, Young Master Song, quickly … quickly get out of the way. They are from the army. We should quickly get out of the way." Seeing the army rushing over, the leader no longer shouted. He hurriedly escorted Tang Jiaoyan and Song Youming to the side.
Tang Jiaoyan and Song Youming had never seen such a scene. They were so scared that they screamed and took the lead to run away.
As a result, they were stopped by their own people. Not only did they step on their own people, but they also tripped and fell to the ground.
At this time, the army had already rushed in front of them. The horses' hooves jumped high and trampled towards them.
"No, I don't want to die. I don't want to die!" Tang Jiaoyan, who fell in the crowd, felt the threat of death and hurriedly shouted.
Song Youming was no better than Tang Jiaoyan. He shouted: "My father is Prime Minister Song. My father is Prime Minister Song. Get out of the way."
