Over the years, the relationship between Zhenlin City and Chixing Mountain has been very good. Every year, Zhenlin City's offerings are sincere and the other party is very satisfied.

But why did Chixingshan suddenly want to take action against Zhenlin City?

Could it be that Chixing Mountain was offended somewhere?

After thinking about it, he shook his head. There was nothing wrong with him.

Zhou Ming has always been cautious in doing things. He will root out those who should be offended, and he will never give the other party an excuse to use against himself if he should not be offended.

Those who can use benefits to turn enemies into friends can use benefits to cooperate with the other party for a win-win situation as long as they are within their own tolerance.

But one billion spirit coins are equivalent to a medium-sized spirit stone vein.

Or provide a medium-sized spiritual stone vein every year!

Last year, Zhenlin City's full-year profit was only 800 million spiritual coins.

Therefore, once Chixing Mountain demands Zhenlin City to pay one billion spiritual coins every year, the meaning is very clear: it means your life!

Why does Chixing Mountain do this?

Zhou Ming guessed that there should be two reasons:

One is an exciting benefit. The "Twin Cities Alliance" formed by Zhenlin City and Jinyan City has developed rapidly in recent years and made huge profits. Not only the surrounding cities are jealous and envious, but also many forces thousands of miles away. People were sent to come here one after another to learn from them or steal their knowledge, including commercial espionage and technical espionage. The Twin Cities Alliance did not know how many they captured.

This kind of interest may even attract some big shots on Chixing Mountain and want to devour these interests in one fell swoop!

After all, immortals are also human beings, and they are not just stones without desires. Things like spiritual coins, herbs, ores are also necessary for immortals and are indispensable. It is better to have more, the better.

The other is the strength of Zhenlin City that makes even the immortals feel afraid.

Slaughter the Immortal City!

This nickname of Zhenlin City is now heard by the immortals on Chixing Mountain.

After hearing about the deeds of slaying immortals in Zhenlin City, the immortals felt a sense of vigilance and the slightest fear in their hearts.

Six immortals one after another suffered a very powerful blow in a short period of time and suddenly fell. What kind of strength is this?

In front of a city ruled by mortals, the immortals were killed like pigs and sheep. What would the immortal group think in their hearts?

Definitely not applauding anyway.

As for whether there is a master in Zhenlin City who is powerful enough to instantly kill the Immortal of the Solid Core Stage, countless forces are speculating. Chixing Mountain has even judged: If there are such powerful monks in Zhenlin City, their cultivation must have reached the level of "trance". Expect".

As for the immortals in the trance stage, there are only two of them on the entire Red Star Mountain.

If there is one in Zhenlin City, it means that in terms of force, Zhenlin City has nearly half of the strength of Chixing Mountain - the size of the sect's power in this world is not calculated by the number of people and average strength, but by the number of people with the highest combat power. How much judgment.

With money, resources, and high-end combat power, how could it not be a threat in Chixingshan's eyes?

Even if it is not regarded as a threat now, it will definitely be regarded as a threat in the future!

It's just that the time when this was regarded as a threat was a little earlier than Zhou Ming expected. He originally thought that Zhenlin City could develop steadily for at least ten years.

"Someone must be secretly instigating the driver to attract the attention of the top management of Chixing Mountain in advance, and let them quickly reach an agreement and decide to take action against Zhenlin City!"

"This little man must ask Shen Quan and the others to dig it out early, and then..."

A hint of murderous intent flashed through Zhou Ming's eyes.

The messenger from Chixing Mountain is expected to arrive at Zhenlin City in three days. However, Zhou Ming has already sent out the Shadowless Assassination Team, preparing to kill this wave of messengers halfway to buy more preparation time for his side. The longer this time, the longer The better!

…

The city capital.

In the family courtyard behind.

"Hello grandpa, hello grandma."

"Grandpa, grandma!"

Zhou Ming's seven children, four sons and three daughters, stood in front of Ying Shiyu and Mei Qianhong, and greeted them politely one by one.

"Okay, okay!"

Mei Qianhong smiled from ear to ear, then took out a gift from her body and gave one to each person.

These gifts are all extraordinary. Some are cultivation techniques, some are special instruments, and some are magical treasures. Each of them can be said to be worth more than one million.

"Thank you, grandma!"

"Thank you, grandma!"

After receiving the gifts, these children were also very polite and shouted very sweetly. They also gave the gifts they prepared to their grandfather and grandmother one by one.

Of course, these gifts are just ordinary things, including delicious fruit cakes, embroidery made by myself, clothes and jewelry, etc... The value is average and can be bought on the street, but Mei Qianhong still accepted them with great surprise. Then, I kissed my grandchildren again and again on their faces, and before I knew it, my eyes were filled with tears again.

"Grandma, did Xuan'er provoke you and give birth to you? Why are you crying?"

Zhou Ming's youngest daughter, 6-year-old Zhang Xuan, was being held in her arms. Seeing that her grandmother was very sad, she asked childishly.

"No, no, grandma is happy, happy!"

Mei Qianhong shook her head repeatedly and kissed her face twice more.

Zhang Xuan took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the corners of his grandma's eyes.

This scene was Tassel Jade standing not far away. After seeing it, everyone was slightly touched. They immediately understood what "family" is and what family affection is.

This should be it.

He also instantly understood why his wife thought about it day and night, and wanted to find her son and her own flesh and blood no matter what.

Because this is a kind of maternal love and a blood inheritance.

Even when he saw these seven exceptionally sensible and well-behaved grandchildren, two of whom he liked very much, a kind smile appeared on Ying Shiyu's face, and he planned to train them with all his strength... …These seven grandchildren are all very qualified and talented.

In addition, Ying Shiyu also saw hope, the hope of carrying forward the Ying family and making the Yinghua Valley stronger and stronger!

Because it is not easy for immortals to have heirs, once they are over a hundred years old, there is almost no possibility of having offspring. According to modern medicine, the egg cells in the female's luan have been completely discharged. After entering menopause, it is basically impossible to get pregnant.

Most of the female monks in this world only focus on cultivation and forget about offspring. When they get older and have a partner, they will not be able to have children... This kind of infertility caused by missing the reproductive period has been The world’s spiritual practice community calls it “Practice is like going against heaven, and acting against heaven will have consequences.”

Therefore, the birth of Zhou Ming's body can be said to be a miracle.

Zhou Ming and his wife Xia Xiaoyan actually gave birth to seven children in a row. The number of offspring surprised Yingshi Yu.

However, a question suddenly occurred to him, and he asked Yingshiyu to pull Zhou Ming aside and said in his ear: "Shanhe, you are my son, Yingshiyu. Your surname should be Ying, not Zhang. So be it, you Change your surname back, and change your sons Zhang Sheng, Zhang Jin, Zhang Yuan, and Zhang Xin to Ying, and your three daughters too."

Change your last name?

Changing the surname Zhang to "Ying"?

Zhou Ming thought for a while and then shook his head and said: "Father, it's not that your surname is not nice, but it's not easy to change it now. Outsiders have been calling me 'Zhang Shanhe' for almost forty years, and suddenly I changed it to 'Ying'." Shanhe, who knows who this name is? I am used to using the name Zhang Shanhe, and others are used to calling it Zhang Shanhe, so I don’t need to change it to avoid inconvenience."

In addition, Zhou Ming also felt that the surname "Ying" sounded weird and seemed not a good surname.

"It was a little inconvenient at first. After the change, won't you get used to it over time?"

Ying Shiyu thought it would be better to change her surname back to Ying immediately.

"Father, there are millions of citizens in my Zhenlin City; outside Zhenlin City, there are tens of millions of partners and business contacts. A sudden change of surname will definitely bring a lot of inconvenience, and everyone will not be able to adapt to it for a while..."

"What's wrong with this?"

Ying Shiyu doesn't quite understand, but it's still the same sentence: after a long time, don't you naturally adapt to it?

"Change, this surname will definitely change!"

Zhou Ming had no choice but to adopt a roundabout strategy, saying that he would definitely change his surname to Ying, but it would take a certain amount of time. After he stepped down from the position of the head of the city, the Zhang family's property would basically not need his intervention. Whether he would change his surname or not would not matter. When it won't cause too much impact, he will naturally return to the surname Ying... Of course, Zhou Ming said it more euphemistically. In short, it will take a while before the surname is changed, and it cannot be changed immediately.

As for how long we have to wait, the shortest term is one or two years, and the long term is three to four years.

At this time, Ying Shiyu was surprised by Zhou Ming's words about "retiring from the position of head of the city" and "no longer taking care of the family business." She asked almost the same question as Gao Xiuzhen: " What are you saying, you don’t want this city, and you don’t want so much business?”

Zhou Ming had no choice but to spend the better part of a day explaining to him the city's management system, economic structure, future plans, etc. The profound, shrewd, and perfectly designed governance framework completely conquered another person.

However, after the brainwashing was completed, Ying Shiyu still did not forget to change her surname.

"Shanhe, your surname cannot be changed for the time being. Your children can always change it first, right?" Taanshi Yu was very persistent.

"I don't have much objection, but you have to ask the children for their opinions. If they agree, you can change it immediately." Zhou Ming said.

"good!"

Ying Shiyu excitedly called her seven grandchildren together and asked them if they could change their surname to the same as her grandfather's.

As a result, the answers of several children gave Ying Shiyu one heavy blow after another!

"Well, it's better not to change it. My classmates in my class all know my name is Zhang Sheng. If I change it to Ying Sheng, my classmates won't be used to it." Zhang Sheng, who is more sensible, said.

"No! It doesn't sound good! My name is Zhang Jin, my name is Ying Jin... this name makes me want to die!"

"I don't want it either. The surname Ying is too weird... I still think the surname Zhang is better!" The child's straightforward words made Ying Shiyu vomit blood in depression.

"That's right! It sounds so nice to be called Zhang Xin. I don't want to change it to Ying Xin. It's too ugly!" There were also children who were finishing their blows.

"I'm sorry, grandpa, if my brothers and sisters don't change, then I won't change either." Zhang Xuan, the youngest and most well-behaved, also stabbed him deeply.

On this day, Yingshiyu, who was extremely disappointed, felt that the whole sky was dark.
