The soft sunlight in the autumn morning casts mottled light and shadow through the fence window.

There was a bouquet of small wild chrysanthemums in the vase on the window sill, and the light floral fragrance filled the small bedroom.

Perhaps because he has consumed too much recently, Zhang Chu, who usually got up early for morning exercises, was unusually still asleep today.

But even in his sleep, his brows were deeply knotted.

Xia Tao, who was nestled in his arms, stretched out her hand to caress her, but she couldn't caress her...

Her mood was a little low and she felt very useless.

I failed to spread the branches and leaves of the old Zhang family.

I can't even let my man sleep peacefully.

"Grr... gurgling..."

As soon as the rooster crowed, it turned into a panicked crowing. It must have been that the servants in the mansion were afraid of waking up the master and drove away the big crowing rooster.

But Xia Tao still felt the man in her arms, and her body moved, and her heart suddenly became filled with hatred. She thought angrily: If I make you scream so randomly, I will take you to the pot at noon today!

Zhang Chu woke up faintly. When he lowered his head, he saw a pair of sparkling eyes. He smiled and put his chin on the top of her head and rubbed: "Why are you awake so early?"

Xia Tao also put on a smiling face and said softly, "I just woke up too."

She didn't tell him.

Because he left her in her sleep many times.

She is a very light sleeper now and will wake up at the slightest disturbance.

Zhang Chu rubbed the top of her head again and said softly: "You can sleep a little longer. I'll get up first and go for morning exercises."

He leaned over and sat up.

Xia Tao also sat up quickly: "I'm all awake, but I can't sleep...I'll help you get dressed."

…

Had breakfast.

Zhang Chu personally sent Li Jintian to school. During this period, Li Jintian's wife grabbed him and made him complain.

The teacher said that Li Jintian was very clever, and he often drew inferences from one instance to another, making him a good material for studying. But his mind was not on the books, and he would lead his classmates in class all day long, hunt for birds and fish, and dance with guns and sticks.

But he couldn't control it. A few days ago, because this kid fell asleep in class, he hit his palm a few times in anger. In the afternoon, Li Youniang came to the door and threatened him fiercely. If he punished Li Jintian corporally in the future, she would

beat him!

Zhang Chu laughed heartily after hearing this.

In the Zhang family, Li Youniang was the one who beat Li Jintian the hardest. Unexpectedly, she was also a protective mistress...

He comforted the teacher for a few words, and said that he would let go of Li Jintian's discipline in the future. If Li Youniang came to see her again, he would tell her that it was him!

Zhang Chu actually also likes Li Jintian's talent. This kid has a quick mind and a lot of ruthlessness. He is a material that can make a big impact, and he intends to train him to be the successor to the leader of the Tianxing Alliance.

Xiao Taiping can't do it.

He is so much like his adoptive father Wu Qianyuan, he is kind and upright, and he can't help but cry when his mother kills a fish.

With this kind of temper, [Biquge 5200 www.bqg5200.biz] I can still live a stable and wealthy life.

If he is the leader of a big force, he will only be eaten up by the wolves who covet the Sky Alliance! Even the bones and scraps will be left behind!

Of course, this is just his current plan.

Who will take over depends on the future performance of these two brothers.

He is not worried that his arrangement will cause some tragedy where brothers are fighting each other and fighting each other with swords.

With his current strength, he can live to be over a hundred years old no matter what.

As long as he lives for one day, these two boys will not be able to make any big waves.

If you dare to poke thorns randomly, he will chop them to death with one slap!

If they live to be over eighty years old and still have the ambition to fight over this inheritance, then Zhang Chu will admit it!

After coming out of the school, Zhang Chu dismissed the followers who were following him, pulled a scarf to cover his face, and strolled around Taipingguan alone.

It's been a while since he took a good look at the city he built with his own hands.

Before the Xiacheng District was completed.

Zhang Chu knew every plant and tree in Taiping Pass like the back of his hand.

When was that house built?

Who opened that store?

He knew everything in his mind.

But since the opening of Xiacheng District, the development of Taipingguan has gradually escaped his control.

It's like when a child grows up and can find food to eat and clothes to wear by himself, he no longer needs his parents to arrange everything.

A large number of foreign residents have moved in, making this emerging city prosperous to the point where even the builder Zhang Chu feels unfamiliar.

I heard that in the most prosperous streets, the rent of storefronts has risen to thousands of taels per year, and all the famous wealthy businessmen from north Yanbei are stationed there!

After just walking around half of the downtown area, it was already noon.

Zhang Chu looked at the "Baiwei Building" not far ahead, shook his head, turned around and walked in the direction of home, muttering to himself: Let's go home to eat. After finally resting at home for a day, Tao Zi will complain...

…

As a result, before he had walked a few steps, he saw a mule leading a group of soldiers, running towards him in a hurry.

"Okay, something happened again!"

Zhang Chu sighed in his heart and stopped.

Sometimes he doesn't want to see the mule.

Because nine times out of ten this guy comes to see him for business.

"Alliance leader."

The mule walked straight up to Zhang Chu, clasped his hands and saluted.

He has followed Zhang Chu for so many years, not to mention that Zhang Chu just covered his face, even if he practiced the bone shrinking technique, he could recognize Zhang Chu at a glance.

"Alliance leader."

Many soldiers held their sabers with their left hands, fisted their chests with their right hands, and shouted loudly, attracting the attention of passers-by on the street.

"Okay, it won't work anymore if you want to hide your face and go out to be happy again!"

Zhang Chu sighed again in his heart, took off his scarf expressionlessly, and asked helplessly: "What's the matter?"

Mule did not ask Zhang Chu to move, but shouted loudly in the street: "Two barbarians came from outside the pass and set up a battle monument. They named them to challenge the great elder. Now the great elder is waiting for your instructions in the Rising Sun Palace, whether to accept the challenge!

"

He is a careful person and never neglects etiquette just because he is close to Zhang Chu.

Whenever there are outsiders present, he calls Zhang Chu's leader.

Only in private do I call him "Master Chu".

"Barbarian? Northern barbarian?"

Zhang Chu's easy-going expression suddenly turned cold: "How did Wang Zhenyi become the champion? How could he let the northern barbarians enter!"

"Master Chu, beat him to death!"

"Yes, beat him to death!"

"Master Chu, we cannot let the northern barbarians pollute our Taipingguan land!"

"kill him!"

The pedestrians who were watching around heard what the mule said and shouted loudly.

This is uptown.

Most of the residents were old members of the Four Alliance Gang, and nine out of ten had enmities with the Northern Barbarians.

Just fight with the northern barbarians, and nine out of ten will be willing to save their lives.

Zhang Chu frowned and glanced at the mule with a reproachful look.

The mule gave him a flattering smile and said nothing.
