Chapter 178: The Family Reappears
The bank affairs and the auction were quickly prepared, and people in Xianyang and other major places knew about the newly released valuable item Liuli.
The colored glaze that was distributed was basically the size of a baby's fist, but at the auction it was actually the size of an adult man's palm.
There are even some weird gadgets. What’s even more crazy is that His Majesty has tacitly approved all of this, and His Majesty will also appear during the auction.
This would make everyone crazy no matter which family they belonged to. After all, the imperial examination system created a large number of civilians to enter the court, dividing the power in the hands of nobles like them.
If they can steal the show in front of His Majesty, does that mean they can reach the sky in one step?
With this idea in mind, a large number of clans and families began to continuously inquire about the location and time of the first auction.
"What kind of trouble is this guy trying to do?"
A trace of doubt flashed in Zhao Qian's eyes. He was the young master of the Zhao clan. According to the information given by the adult in the palace, he already knew who came up with the grace order and the imperial examination system.
And this time, it was also the auction recommended by this guy. What kind of guanzi was being sold in this cage?
"Young Master, we have already found out the location of the auction."
A middle-aged butler walked over, and his eyes were shining, his cheekbones were high, and he had the temperament of a warrior. He was obviously a good warrior.
"Where is it?"
"Fengde Tower, three days and four quarters from now."
"Uncle Guan, get me a ticket."
Admission tickets are also made by reckless people, and these tickets also need to be purchased, ranging from first-class seats to third-class seats, and even private rooms, etc.
Of course, these are expensive, but in the eyes of the aristocratic family, they are just a drop in the bucket.
"Yes, young master."
"Uncle Guan, wait, get me a good private room."
After hesitating for a moment, Zhao Qian spoke, and Uncle Guan nodded.
"Yes, young master."
Then Uncle Guan immediately retreated, while Zhao Qian's face suddenly darkened.
"Qin Mang, it's Qin Mang again, why doesn't this guy die outside?"
Since the emergence of official salt, their private salt has been greatly affected. Even the poor will hardly even look at their salt. He has tasted official salt and found that the delicate taste cannot be produced by their private salt.
What's even more incredible is that these high-quality snow salts are surprisingly cheap, while their private salts are expensive and taste bad. How can I not get angry when I think about this.
Then came the extension of grace orders and the imperial examination system, which completely disrupted his plan. How could he not be angry?
Because the concubines studied harder and harder, his sense of crisis became even stronger. Even though he secretly killed a few concubines, the remaining concubines were not fools.
I immediately knew it was him who did it. Although there was no evidence, not everyone in the family was a fool.
Because of the huge pressure and even the frequent mistakes he made in the past few days, his position in his father's heart became even more shaken.
If the man in the palace hadn't revealed the news to him, he would still have been kept in the dark, and the culprit of all this was the owner of the auction.
Qin Mang!
He was just a pariah with mud-legged status. He relied on Shang Yang's military exploits and his ability to save people to make his way to Shaoshangzao.
Qin Mang's actions are tantamount to challenging the bottom line of the major families. Since he is unkind, don't blame me for being unjust.
Stroking the jade in his hand, Zhao Qian laughed gloomily.
Everything in the Zhao family belongs to him, not even his father, but since there is an obstacle, let's crush the stone completely first.
"Qin Mang, right? I don't know how many lives you have to stop the assassination of the world's famous family."
Zhao Qian then found a few people and passed on what Qin Mang had done. He even thought of the grace order and exposed it to him.
The First Emperor and others did not dare to move, but he was just a young man. Although the young man had a great official position, no matter how high the official position was, could he withstand the mad killings of the family.
On this day, all the aristocratic families in Xianyang received a piece of information. The heirs of all the clans gritted their teeth and their eyes were full of murderous intent. The patriarchs of these clans and aristocratic families also had gloomy faces.
And... with boundless murderous intent.
Even if the wealth accumulated by their clan family is extremely fat, the more powerful the clan family is, the more children it has.
Even if it is a mountain of gold and silver, after several generations of division, how much is left?
The family heritage accumulated by more than ten generations, or even dozens of generations, was divided into dozens or even hundreds of shares under the order of grace.
No matter how powerful a clan is, it will become completely lonely after a few generations.
"It turns out to be this little beast, damn it, damn it!"
The legitimate son of a noble family was angry. He was in his twenties and had not yet inherited the position of patriarch, but he already had more than a dozen children, and there were no less than thirty people of his generation.
If it is divided into thirty parts, after his death, one-thirtieth of it will belong to him and will be divided among his more than a dozen children.
This made it unacceptable for him to accept the development of his family as his own person since he was a child. At one point, he even thought of killing people. As long as he killed all the remaining thirty people, he would inherit what he deserved.
It's a pity that these people who have lived to such an old age are not fools. They have been prepared for it a long time ago. After killing a few younger ones, the rest of them basically live a happy life.
"Come here, contact the person who snares me. I want this little beast's head."
Snare is a huge organization. No one knows when this group of people appeared or who they are.
The business of Snare is very powerful. They include a series of services, whether it is arresting people, killing people, finding objects, intelligence, tracing people... these tasks can be entrusted to the people of Snare.
As long as you pay enough, or even pay enough to impress the snare's people, the snare will be able to fulfill your request at all costs.
Even if they kidnap princesses and seize jade seals from major palaces, they dare to do it. The only bottom line is that they cannot assassinate the monarch easily.
They are not afraid of the monarch of one country, they are afraid of all the monarchs uniting against them.
Of course, there is only one King of Qin left now, and they will not accept the task of assassinating King Qin.
However, there is nothing taboo about assassinating officials, and the price is clearly marked. As long as the price is reasonable, they will not dare to kill anyone.
Of course, those who wanted to assassinate Qin Mang were not just the thoughts of one aristocratic family, but the thoughts of most aristocratic families.
