Maoshan World: The young marshal starts!

Chapter 102 Uncle Jiu breaks through and becomes a great monk of the Golden Core
"What? The son of Guan Zongtang, the commander-in-chief of Guangdong!"

Half an hour later, Annie returned home from the charity cemetery and revealed Guan Shaoqing's identity.

Zhou Youfu, who was originally furious and about to fly into a rage when he saw his daughter's face was full of peach blossoms and it was obvious that she had been seduced by a pig, was suddenly startled when he heard the words, and the anger in his heart was immediately extinguished.

Annie might not be very clear about the situation of the Guan family in eastern Guangdong, but as Zhou Youfu has been doing business with the outside world for many years, how could he not know?

The Guan family in eastern Guangdong is a newly emerged super warlord. They control the entire province of eastern Guangdong and have tens of thousands of soldiers. Even the imperial court had no choice but to adopt the pacification measure and appointed Guan Zongtang as the governor of eastern Guangdong. In name, the Guan family was in charge of eastern Guangdong, but anyone with a discerning eye did not know that this was a pacification measure of the Qing court.

Zhou Youfu had also heard of the name Guan Shaoqing, the only son of Guan Zongtang. He was an outstanding man with great ability and held great military power. He was known as the Young Marshal of East Guangdong and the well-deserved prince of East Guangdong. Everyone who saw him in East Guangdong would respectfully call him the Young Marshal.

Zhou Youfu really never dreamed that Guan Shaoqing actually had such an identity. Although he knew that Guan Shaoqing's surname was Guan, he didn't know Guan Shaoqing's specific name and had never thought about it in this regard.

This news was shocking to Zhou Youfu.

But then Zhou Youfu couldn't help but get excited.

Guan Shaoqing has such a prominent status, and now that Guan Shaoqing is with his daughter, doesn't it mean that he has a super warlord relative and son-in-law?

As long as the Zhou family maintains this relationship and clings to the Guan family, they will be able to take off immediately.

By then, being a town gentry would be nothing. As long as they could handle this relationship well, it would not be impossible for the Zhou family to become the gentry of not only a town, but also a county or a province.

If the Zhou family really reached that level, then Zhou Yongfu would definitely be qualified to open a new page in the Zhou family tree and be revered and worshipped by future generations of Zhou family descendants.

In this world, who can resist the temptation of opening a new page in the family tree?

Think about this.

Zhou Yongfu couldn't help but get excited, and then he grabbed Annie's hand and said excitedly.

"Okay, okay, Annie, you are worthy of being Daddy's most beloved daughter. You have really made a great contribution to our Zhou family this time. If our Zhou family really marries Young Marshal Guan, then our entire Zhou family will be able to soar. Okay, okay!"

"You must seize this opportunity. There is no other outstanding talent like Young Marshal Guan. Whether our Zhou family can get on board Young Marshal Guan's big ship depends entirely on you."

Annie nodded happily when she heard this.

"Don't worry, Dad. I'm already Brother Shaoqing's man. I'll never marry anyone else but him. Brother Shaoqing has also agreed."

"Okay, okay, then you must seize the opportunity next time. Remember not to make the young marshal angry. And you should also work harder. It's best to get pregnant first."

Zhou Youfu couldn't help but become even more excited after hearing this.

"By the way, does the young commander have anything else to tell you?"

"Shaoqing said he has a lot of business to do in Guangdong and will only stay in Jiuquan Town for a few days before returning. However, he asked me to go to Guangdong to find him later. He also said that if you are willing, you can go there. Shaoqing also happens to have a lot of business there. If you are interested, we can cooperate."

"Okay, okay, tell the young marshal that after we finish dealing with this, we will go to eastern Guangdong."

Zhou Yongfu nodded repeatedly. He had no doubt that Guan Shaoqing's identity was a lie. After all, no one would dare to lie about such a thing. Moreover, he had the reputation of being an exorcist and a true disciple of Maoshan, so it was even less likely that he would lie.

"By the way, Dad, Brother Shaoqing, Master Lin, Master Yimei, and Master Exorcist have already agreed to come over for dinner tonight, so you have to be ready."

"Yes, yes. I'll arrange for someone to prepare it right away. No, I'll do it myself. My dear daughter, you've worked hard today. Go and have a good rest. Also, go and change your clothes. These traces haven't been cleaned up yet."

Annie was immediately ashamed when she heard this, and quickly lowered her head and ran to her room.

"By the way, remember not to tell anyone about the Young Marshal's identity, lest you bring him trouble. We just need to keep it to ourselves."

Looking at Annie's fleeing back, Zhou Yongfu hurriedly gave another instruction.

After all, things must be done in secrecy, and Zhou Yongfu understood this.
-
"Master Lin, Master Yimei, Master Exorcist, and Mr. Guan, please come in. The food is ready. Let's sit down and talk."

At dinner time, Guan Shaoqing, Uncle Jiu, Yimei, the exorcist master and apprentice, and the uncle and nephew came to Zhou's house together.

Zhou Yongfu warmly invited the four people into the house, especially when facing Guan Shaoqing, his face was almost full of fawning.

"Uncle Zhou, you are the elder, so just call me Shaoqing."

Guan Shaoqing said with a smile, knowing in his heart that Annie must have told Zhou Yongfu her identity.

"Okay, okay, then Shaoqing, you, Master Lin, Master Yimei, and Master Exorcist, please come inside and take a seat."

Zhou Yongfu was delighted when he heard this.

"Excuse me, Mayor Zhou." Uncle Jiu, Yimei, and Exorcist all smiled and said politely. Then they went into the house and sat down.

At this time, Annie and her mother Wang also came out.

"Dad, Brother Shaoqing, Master Lin, Master Yimei, Master Exorcist."

Annie called out to everyone and then naturally sat down next to Guan Shaoqing. Seeing this, no one said anything.

Wang sat down next to Zhou Yongfu.

Then the food and drinks came and everyone started eating.

Soon, after three rounds of wine and five dishes, the atmosphere became lively.

"This church event is truly thanks to the three masters and Shaoqing. I would like to express my gratitude on behalf of the entire people of Jiuquan Town."

At this time, Zhou Yongfu picked up the wine glass and bowed to Guan Shaoqing, Jiushu, Yimei, and Qumo.

"You're welcome, Mayor."

The four of them also raised their glasses and returned the greeting with a smile.

It has to be said that as a local gentleman, Zhou Yongfu's ability to treat people and deal with things is impeccable. He gives people a sense of hospitality without making them feel restrained. He is good at speaking and livens up the atmosphere, making people feel at home.

Both parties enjoyed the meal very much.

It was not until more than half an hour later that Zhou Yongfu, Jiu Shu, Yimei and Qumo were all a little drunk and then they left.

Then Zhou Youfu took Uncle Jiu, Yimei and Exorcist to drink tea in the yard.

Guan Shaoqing was pulled into Annie's boudoir in advance.

The two of them stayed in the boudoir for a while longer, and it was not until after dark that Guan Shaoqing, Uncle Jiu, Yimei, the exorcist master and apprentice, and the uncle and nephew left the Zhou family.

Afterwards, Guan Shaoqing, his uncle Jiu, his master and apprentice Yimei, and their uncle and nephew stayed in Jiuquan Town for another two days.

During these two days, Guan Shaoqing spent almost every day with Annie, leaving traces of the two of them in the wild, riverside, woods, valleys, alleys, etc. throughout Jiuquan Town.

Two days passed like this.

Guan Shaoqing and his disciple Jiushu also prepared to say goodbye and return to eastern Guangdong.

This time, Uncle Yimei and Exorcist have stayed here for several days.

However, it was the night before Guan Shaoqing and his disciple Jiu Shu were about to say goodbye.

"Om-!"

late at night.

In the yard where Uncle Jiu lives.

Suddenly, a terrifying aura burst out from the yard.

The five people in the charity cemetery, Guan Shaoqing, Yimei, Qumo, Axing and Xiaoyue, were also alarmed in an instant.

Before the five people arrived at the gate of the courtyard where Uncle Jiu was, they saw Uncle Jiu's figure slowly floating in the air above the courtyard.

In the air, Uncle Jiu’s figure was floating in the air, accompanied by a powerful aura, and it seemed as if he was about to fly away.

"Flying through the air, a great golden elixir cultivator!"

Guan Shaoqing, Yimei and Qumo also figured it out quickly.

This clearly shows that Uncle Jiu has successfully broken through to the Golden Core realm.

When a cultivator reaches the Golden Core stage, he can rely on his powerful magic power to initially achieve the ability to soar in the air and fly.

Guan Shaoqing couldn't help but reveal a look of joy on his face. His master, Uncle Jiu, had broken through to the realm of a great Jindan cultivator, which meant that his own position was much more secure.
