637: Zhou Wuji will be released from prison and improve his martial arts

“Ning family?” Wang Family Head’s fat face wrinkled slightly, and he reached out to take the envelope.

As the envelope unfolded, his brows furrowed even deeper.

The letter said that the Ning family could answer their Wang Family’s questions about why the telephones they sold couldn’t turn on.

It also mentioned the meeting place.

“Brother Wang, you also received it?” Qiong Family Head, who had rushed to the Wang Family, saw the envelope in Wang Family Head’s hand and said in surprise.

“Hmm…” Wang Family Head nodded: “It seems the Ning family knew we would face this situation long ago. This is a trap set by the Ning family!”

The envelope in his hand was crumpled into a paper ball, and Wang Family Head clenched his fists.

“Then should we go?” Qiong Family Head asked.

“Go? Why go? Our telephone manufacturing steps are completely identical to the Ning family’s, there’s no way the telephones can have any problems!”

“The Ning family inviting us at this time must be because the activation time for our telephones is approaching, and they can’t sit still! Hahaha!”

“Is that really the case?” Qiong Family Head said, not very confidently.

“It must be! Just wait, wait two more days…”

“Wait two more days, and if our telephones still don’t turn on, we’ll tear down your store and overturn your Wang Family and Qiong family!” On Five Directions City’s main street, the telephone store jointly opened by the Wang and Qiong families was crowded with a large number of angry customers.

Beside them, some onlookers holding ye ning mobile phones kept shaking their heads and laughing mockingly: “These fools, the telephones sold by the Wang Family, Qiong family, Zhou family, and those other families are all fake goods like stones. They hold a stone as a telephone all day, it’s hilarious.”

The mockery from the people nearby caused the anger of the customers holding the stone telephones to pile up.

And this anger was naturally directed at the store that sold them the telephones.

However, the Wang Family and Qiong family were, after all, two of the Four Great Families within Five Directions City, relying on centuries of reputation.

This allowed everyone to give them a little more time and patience.

As for the smaller families who had entered this industry halfway.

Their situation was not so good.

“Look at the Ning family’s telephones, the Ning family’s telephones can dial numbers, view maps, and even play games anytime, anywhere. What about yours? Yours can’t even turn on! This is just a stone!”

“Scam store, let’s smash this store together, send the store owner to the County Office, and tell him to compensate us!”

The shopkeepers who had joined in to make money selling telephones could only watch helplessly as their own stores were torn apart by angry customers.

The constables who arrived after receiving the report only told everyone not to make too much of a fuss.

As for the telephones sold by these shopkeepers, the constables also wanted to laugh.

They didn’t have the technology like the Ning family, so why did they come in to make money?

Making bricks as telephones, wouldn’t the money earned have to be returned sooner or later? Not only would they go to jail, but they also ruined their own reputation, making it difficult to do any business in the future.

Since the shopkeepers were in the wrong for selling fake goods, and there were too many angry commoners, the constables naturally arrested these small Family shopkeepers and took them to the County Office without hesitation.

This news spread to the ears of all the great families in Five Directions City at the same time.

For a time, the unease in the hearts of these families who operated the telephone industry, except for the Ning family, intensified.

It was all because the Ning family earned so much back then, making them envious.

They shouldn’t have entered this line of work, and now it was extremely difficult to withdraw!

Zhou family.

Zhou family head, dressed in an earthy yellow brocade robe, with Zhou Tiesuo, the Zhou family’s strongest expert, behind him, hurried towards the Rainy Night Tower of the Zhou family, which stood beside a stretch of river water.

As they approached, Zhou family head and Zhou Tiesuo behind him bowed slightly, appearing extremely respectful.

“Lord Snake Old, please inform Seventh Princess, this junior has something to request.”

Zhou family head cautiously looked at the young man sitting cross-legged before him, with a long sword placed on his legs, maintaining a very low posture.

And his words also revealed that Seventh Princess, who had not shown herself these past few days, had been staying in the Zhou family’s Rainy Night Tower by the river.

“Snake Old is Cultivating, don’t disturb him.” Suddenly, a gentle voice came from the side.

Hearing the voice, Zhou family head immediately looked over: “Seventh Princess, this junior was presumptuous.”

Seventh Princess didn’t speak and walked slowly towards the pavilion not far away.

Bringing the two people behind her to this place, Seventh Princess then asked: “What do you need from this Prince?”

“Prince, this junior has made a mistake and there is a danger that could endanger the entire Zhou family.” Zhou Wuji’s Father, who is Zhou family head, said in a heavy tone.

Afterwards, he emotionally recounted the story of their Zhou family’s operation of telephones.

When people finally endured for another two or three days and completely understood that what they bought was truly just a stone, the situation of those small families would definitely play out in their Zhou family!

Their Zhou family had sold nearly 100,000 telephones, which accounted for 1/4 of the population of Five Directions City. If they became angry, they could definitely overthrow their entire Zhou family!

After listening to Zhou family head’s narration, Seventh Princess frowned slightly: “The thing called a telephone that the Ning family sells can be used normally, but the telephones you sell are useless. So you are selling fake goods, and you want this Prince to protect you?”

“Prince, this junior also didn’t know it was fake goods!”

Zhou family head was filled with regret at this moment.

At that time, seeing that the other three great Family heads had all made money, their Zhou family naturally didn’t want to just watch.

For them, hesitating for an extra second was an extra loss of money.

Coupled with the fact that the Ning family and the Wang and Qiong families had already tested the waters, he naturally immediately invested power and entered this industry.

In just three to five days, from getting rich to the entire Family reaching a moment of crisis, this was truly difficult to accept.

If they had to bleed profusely to compensate those customers, their Zhou family would inevitably decline directly and withdraw from the ranks of the first-tier families in Five Directions City, becoming a third-rate declining family!

“This Prince will not help you.” Seventh Princess gave a clear answer.

Hearing this, Zhou family head’s heart kept sinking.

“However, this Prince has already spoken with the officials and asked them to release your Zhou family’s Zhou Wuji from prison tomorrow.”

“Let him handle the affairs of your Zhou family.”

“What?” Zhou family head was suddenly startled: “Seventh Princess, are you willing to rescue Wuji?!”

“This Prince just doesn’t want to see a young talent spend his life regrettably in prison.” Seventh Princess said lightly.

And in a place far away.

Snake Old, with his sharp hearing, heard Seventh Princess’s words while cultivating with his eyes closed, and his brows couldn’t help but furrow slightly.

At the same time.

Among the flower bushes nearby, a few inconspicuous weeds clearly witnessed this scene.

Ning family.

Ning Buxiu withdrew his gaze from the surveillance on the System panel.

Ning Buxiu had long expected that Seventh Princess would rescue Zhou Wuji.

If he was rescued tomorrow, it meant that something was about to happen in the city.

And he still had today.

On this day, Ning Buxiu already had a goal.

Huangniu Town.

It was time to clear this key instance dungeon.

Thinking this, Ning Buxiu opened his personal panel.

Host: Ning Buxiu

Martial Arts: Huodu Palm (Complete) 《Golden Stake Skill》 (Complete) Cangying Leg (Complete) Nimble Step (Complete) 《Blazing Blood Skill》 (Complete) 《Ox King Strength》 (Complete) 《Violent Wind Eight Consecutive Slashes》 (Complete) 《Blazing Sun Like the Sun Blade》 (Complete) 《Rolling Fire Nineteen Blades》 (Complete)

Nine Martial Arts, all complete!

After just touching upon the basics of these Martial Arts, Ning Buxiu relied on the System’s Krypton Gold ability to directly reach this level.

It would take an ordinary person half a lifetime to Cultivation one Martial Arts, but he directly Cultivated nine!

“System, merge Martial Arts!” He glanced at his money.

Ning Buxiu found that he now had a full 150,000 taels!

In fact, he had earned more than this these past few days.

Mainly, the Family’s operations also needed money, and he only took about 50% of the profits from the telephones.

When software like banks go online in the future, and he can cash out using virtual numbers, he won’t have to worry and can directly transfer all the money to himself.

Of course, the act of issuing virtual currency would likely attract the attention of the Qingpan Kingdom’s court.

They might even send strong experts to take over.

But that was for later, everything, as long as his strength was sufficient, he wouldn’t have to worry about anything.

With 150,000 taels available now, Ning Buxiu felt confident.
