Power of Money -
Chapter 1287
Jason felt that he had overestimated these people in Wei City.
Eternal Life.
The more he had, the greedier he would be in this world. He would not be willing to give up the wealth he had accumulated for a lifetime and eventually turn into dust.
It was hard for ordinary people to even live. Every day, he would think about how he could make more money to support his family after waking up the next day. It was not worth it in the world. They were tired enough in this life, how could they think about immortality?
"Do the family heads usually not leave the city easily?" asked Jason.
"No one has ever left the city." Wei Zipei said, "Not only the Patriarch. Anyone who holds the post of Vice City Lord or above is not allowed to leave the city for even half a step. This is the iron clan's rule, and no one is allowed to violate it."
"Is there an outsider coming?" asked Jason.
"Yes." Wei Zipei nodded. "Every year, on the day of the annual Conclave, we will invite outsiders to enter our ancestral grounds and participate in the ancestral ceremony. Father said that these people have tremendous influence in the outside world. Some of them are just people, and they can even compare to some ancient clan. However, I don't know what is going on this year. It seems as though our clan is ill and doesn't send out an invitation, but they don't seem to have any intentions of coming."
"They?"
Jason laughed in his heart. It was not that they didn't come. Even if they sent them invitations, they wouldn't be able to come this year.
The situation outside was complicated. Corey died, and the Yun family was almost destroyed. The last piece of meteorite fragment of the ancient family world was also in his hands. They had no hope for longevity, so they naturally would not ask for the help of the Wei family. Everyone felt insecure, so who dared to come?
"It seems that the Wei family is trying to learn about the outside world and plan to clear out the so-called alliance of the Gu family so that they can start a new business on their own."
Jason took a deep breath and asked, "When can I enter the ancestral tomb?"
"We'll have to depend on Wei Feng." Wei Zipei said.
"Look at him?" Jason was stunned.
"Wei Feng is still the head of the Law Enforcement Hall in Wei City. All the entry and exit of the city gates are under his control. If he doesn't agree to go through the city gates and enter the ancestral grounds, once the people in the city know about it, the people in the ancestral graves will be on their guard, or if they don't receive a pass, the tomb guards in the ancestral graves won't allow anyone to enter, much less allow anyone to be taken away,"
Wei Zipei said.
"Wei Jason has such great power. How can he allow people to take away the team girl?" Jason was a little surprised.
"At the very least, when we have the passage order in our hands, we won't be obstructed from entering the ancestral tomb's tomb. We'll be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort, and our success rate will be much higher." Wei Zipei said.
"We're looking for Wei Feng..."
Jason sighed, but unexpectedly, the housekeeper came over at this moment and said, "Mr. Qin, Wei Feng is outside the door and wants to see you."
"Wei Feng?"
Jason and Wei Zipei looked at each other and did not react for a while.
At the gate, Jason saw Wei Feng.
This was the first time for the two to meet so face-to-face. More accurately, this was also the first time Jason saw his face clearly.
He had distinct facial features and looked comely. Wearing a black Han costume, he looked like a young master who often wandered between the flowers, snow, and moonlight in ancient times, instead of the chief of the Law Enforcement Hall, which made people tremble with fear.
"Master Qin, I have prepared a few wines at home. I would like to invite you to my house as a guest. What do you think, Master Qin?"
Seeing Jason, Wei Feng smiled and invited him.
Jason looked at the two servants behind Wei Feng, who were lit up by lanterns. They didn't feel any danger. It seemed that Wei Feng was very confident in his own safety. He didn't worry about his life at all when he came to the door of Wei Zi Pei's house to see him.
"Okay." Jason nodded and agreed.
"This way please."
Wei Feng turned sideways and made an invitation gesture to Jason.
They didn't say anything along the way.
Wei Feng brought Jason to his own mansion. After passing through two courtyards, they arrived at a brightly lit room.
The room was not large, with simple decoration and a large round table in the middle. There were dozens of dishes and wine on the table. The dishes were not heavy. The wine was a flagon of fine wine. It looked antique, as if it had traveled through time and space.
"These two are my deputies, Wei Zixiao and Wei Zicheng. They are the two deputy Hall Chiefs of the Law Enforcement Hall and also the distributers of the South-east Gate token." Wei Feng introduced. Jason nodded, and the two cupped their fists and bowed to Jason.
After the four people were seated, Wei Feng enthusiastically poured wine into Jason's cup and asked him about some of his daily life after coming to the city. For example, he was not used to the life without electricity here, how was his food, if there was anything he needed help with, he seemed to be the Chatelain of the city. When he spoke, he showed the attitude of the city of the city, and he could make decisions no matter what happened.
The other two people also toasted to Jason frequently and said some polite words, saying that Jason was the guest of honor. The atmosphere in the whole room was very intense.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of dishes, Wei Feng gently hiccupped. He looked at Jason with drunkenness and asked, "Mr. Qin, I have a saying that I don't know if I should say it or not." "Go ahead." Jason said with a smile.
"What if I can give a woman who is more beautiful than Wei Zipei to follow her?" Wei Feng asked.
