Chapter 43 – 44. Party Meeting-1
Sichuan Tang Gate
It can be said that it is a family in a unique position among the six generations as a family that goes beyond the first family of Sicheon and the first family of Jungwon.
The six generations, except Tang Wen, were also reborn as the best families in the region, but Tang Wen was not satisfied with 40 million and began to expand its power further, and soon it was able to be reborn as a huge single power that stood shoulder to shoulder with Cheonmu Maeng.
The main reason for such growth was that she was the wife of Lee Jae-won, the Lord of Heaven. Of course, the other six generations also had an in-law relationship with Lee Jae-won, but the Tang family was the only one that actively utilized this advantage to expand the family.
In the case of the six generations excluding the Tang family, they stopped at consolidating their position within the region rather than expanding their power, but they did not stop at consolidating the position of the Tang family in the region, but further expanded their business and influence.
The Tang family’s iron rule of repaying kindness tenfold and resentment tenfold gave the trust of numerous upper ranks and skyrocketed the sales of the flag country operated by the Tang family.
And the Tang family, famous for their memorization skills, operated their own blacksmith shop, and many people visited because of their skill in not only memorization, but also weapons such as swords, swords, and spears.
Assuming the same level of unmanned, the difference is in the quality of the weapon, so many unmanned soldiers searched for weapons with a price tag.
It was possible to take exorbitant profits because the price tag weapons were exclusively dealt with by the merchant company operated by itself.
Usually, there were many cases in which the upper ranks received goods from customers rather than their own products and collected distribution and transaction fees.
However, in the case of sugar, self-production and self-distribution and trading were possible.
They were able to trade weapons with superior quality at a price that was not much different from that of other guilds.
Of course, the business had no choice but to go well, and he was able to rise to the top of the market, which occupies more than 60% of the arms market.
It has been 20 years since the Emperor of the Heavenly Demon was defeated by Lee Jae-Won, an absolute god.
The Tang family was enjoying a boom more than ever.

Sichuan Tang Gate
Housekeeper’s office
A man was sitting in front of a desk with his chin resting.
The identity of the man was Dokwang Dang Jin-cheol, the head of the Sacheon Dangmun, who was enjoying the most booming period.
‘Hmm, what is it?’
He was now in serious trouble.
It was a concern related to succession.
Even if Sogaju was already installed, it should have been installed a long time ago.
However, as I delayed and postponed it under the pretext of expanding Sega, I vacated the seat of Sogaju for nearly 30 years.
Of course, many elders and elders objected, and at this Sega meeting, the installation of Sogaju was more important than punishment in the current century.
Dang Jin-cheol was suffering from a headache.
It was a serious matter that was on a different level from dealing with the madness of the century.
It is a party that is enjoying the greatest prosperity.
In order to continue and prosper this glory from generation to generation, it was necessary to appoint someone suitable for it to the position of Sogaju.
The problem was that there were too many candidates from Sogaju.
Although he had a great love for Unga-ryeo, the head of the headquarters, he had a history of having five more wives for political status, and as a result, he gave birth to too many children.
They had fifteen sons and four daughters.
Because the head of a party can only be a man, there are still 15 candidates, even if daughters are excluded.
From his point of view, except for Tang Segi, the youngest of the 15, there were no particularly outstanding or ugly guys.
Whoever you are, you will be able to lead the party well.
However, the elders and the elders seemed to think differently.
After quickly giving punishment for the current century, they raised a topic about the installation of Sogaju.
And each of them mentioned the faction they belonged to, and before long, voices were exchanged, and they were on the verge of a fistfight.
Even in front of the owner himself.
While he was postponing the installation of Sogaju, the factions pushing each candidate grew in size to the extent that they didn’t notice the housekeeper.
Because of this, Dang Jin-cheol had no choice but to rot his head.
No matter who it was, only the stubborn guys fought so hard.
Each other was busy degrading the other candidate, and Dang Jin-cheol was in a bad mood listening to his sons’ gossip.
And I could feel it.
If left unattended any longer, it is almost certain that a bloody wind will blow in Sega.
After 20 years of hard work, he started to gain a reputation as the best family, but because of the succession fight, everything was ruined.
That’s why Dang Jin-cheol fell into serious trouble.
This is because who should inherit the succession and the validity of the choice must be verified.
But no matter how much I thought about it, it was all conceited.
Picking the guy with the highest martial arts gave him brains, and choosing the guy with the best martial arts got him.
It was all like that.
There were a lot of guys who excelled in one field, but I couldn’t find a guy who excelled more than that.
This was the conclusion he made as a father before he became the head of household.
Inseong, with the exception of the youngest, everyone was moderately selfish and moderately negotiable.
There was no criterion for selection.
An innovative method was needed.
It is a method that is sure and groundbreaking enough for elders and elders to shut up and agree.
“I need to open the Solitude Hall.”
Dang Jin-cheol stood up as if he had made up his mind.
It was intended to reconvene the Sega meeting.
*************
Loneliness
After filling a large jar with all sorts of deadly poisons such as centipedes, snakes, spiders, and toads, close the lid.
And if you open the lid of this jar a month later, only one venom survives, which eats many poisons and absorbs many deadly poisons, which is called solitude.
Loneliness in the view of loneliness (蠱毒館) is a word derived from this, and it is a bad custom of the Tang family that was used in the process of selecting successors in the past.
The view of solitude was one of the evil customs of a prestigious political faction that was so devastating and cruel that it was impossible to say anything about it.
In the first place, the person who first created this solitude hall was Dokhwang Dangpaegang, a native of the Sichuan Tang Dynasty, who was famous as the first person in the world at the time.
He had as many children as he had many wives, and among the children he inherited through the line, he had twenty sons.
Here he rots his head.
Because of so many children, it was difficult to select a successor.
Moreover, each of the seven wives hoped that their child would become the head of the family, and with the help of their maternal relatives, the clique began to expand.
Everyone urged him to choose a successor, and for the first time Tang Peijiang encountered a difficult situation in life.
There were more than twenty children, but all of them were talented because they inherited their blood, and it was difficult to distinguish superiority and inferiority.
If there was an exceptionally talented person, he could be selected as the successor, but since everyone was outstanding, it was impossible to find an appropriate method.
In the end, Tang Paegang, unable to find the proper way, continued to delay the selection of a successor, and as a result, factional fighting intensified, and the influence of maternal relatives within the Tang family was strengthened.
A crisis has come to the party that boasts the best prosperity.
After watching this, Tang Paegang came up with the idea that it could not go on like this.
At the same time as selecting the successor, it was to grind all the foreign powers.
He immediately mobilized the best carpenters, field masters, and jinbeopists in the central plains, and proceeded with a large-scale construction, and after a year, he was able to create a massive building called the Solitude Hall (蠱毒館).
Originally, the place where the Solitude Hall was built was a poisonous land where various poisonous plants and poisons that Dang Paegang had collected as a hobby were growing wild.
The interior of the hall of solitude was filled with numerous poisons and poisonous smoke with deadly poison, and dangerous tactics and organs were installed.
When Tang Paegang built a hall of solitude, he put all his sons into it and waited for only one to come out alive.
Although numerous elders and elders protested, Tang Paegang was firm and could not break his will.
If there were those who rebelled, they were purged using the statute as an excuse.
Many people chose silence rather than protest against his tough response.
After a month like that
Only one son survived and came out of the Hall of Loneliness, and he became the heir to the Tang family.
Since then, the view of loneliness has been hardened as a custom used when selecting a successor, but it was so cruel and brutal that it was soon forgotten in history.
But now, Dang Jin-cheol thought of reviving the dead evil.
‘Now I’m starting to put on my wings, but I can’t break them before I even flap them!’
It was a party gate that was in full swing.
However, if an internal division occurs because of the succession battle here, all the efforts so far will be in vain.
It couldn’t be.
As the family head of the Tang clan, he considered the glory of his family more important than his own children.
It has run countless times so far.
In order to make Sichuan Tangmen the first street in Zhongyuan.
In the end, 20 years later, a single force was able to build a huge force second only to the Cheonmu-Meng.
Now, if he only solidifies his position, he will be able to continue his glory and prosperity even after his death.
But because of the succession battle here, I couldn’t cut my own weight.
In that case, it would be better to open the view of loneliness and remove the seeds of discord.
Even if he designated someone as his successor, it was clear that there would be a backlash.
However, if he left it as it was, he was worried that the influence of his maternal relatives would seize the party.
That is why he decided to use an extreme method called a view of loneliness.
For the eternal prosperity of the Tang family.
The door to the meeting room opened.
*******************
Inside the conference room
“I think that the three gongs are the most suitable for Sogaju.”
“Three Gongja, isn’t he weak in martial arts? Where is Sogaju of the Murim family’s martial arts so weak?
“Yukgongja!?, Yukgongja has stronger martial arts than his peers, but I can barely even use three characters for my name?, As the family head, I’m inferior. I recommend Palgongja.”
“No, Palgongja!? Isn’t Palgongja a person who has no special corner compared to others? It’s not that he’s exceptional in martial arts, and his academics aren’t outstanding either.”
“Are you done talking now?”
“I’m not done!”
There was no soybean powder like this.
He only raised a topic about the installation of Sogaju.
But as soon as I heard that, I reacted violently, and soon they started fighting among themselves.
Emotional voices came and went, and some raised their history.
I was angry.
Are these people invisible to the eyes?
Do you not realize who the owner of the family is now?
Dang Jin-cheol began to gradually build up his strength.
And
Bang
He hit the desk violently.
Pod
In an instant, the waves spread and the complexions of the elders and elders turned blue.
It was a mistake.
In the meantime, since the head of the family had only apologized for problems related to the current century, they had forgotten.
How strong is the man in front of you?
Whoops
A wave of intense energy wrapped around the entire conference hall.
Although they reached the minimum peak or higher level, it was difficult to endure the dense life of the family head who reached the absolute level of Hwagyeong.
Cool
The one with weak endurance began to vomit blood.
“From now on, those who open their mouths before the family head we saw will be punished by the family law.”
Each word he spoke began to vibrate in his ears, and the feeling of fear began to creep up.
I remembered.
The fact that this man is a legendary hero who defeated the Emperor of the Heavenly Demon along with Lee Jae-won, an absolute warrior.
The Tang Men’s elders and elders kept their mouths shut.
Because I couldn’t say anything.
They disregarded the authority of the family head, and originally, this was an act close to the extreme.
I was just grateful for the generosity of the family head.
“It’s quiet now.”
Dig
In an instant, all of Dang Jin-cheol’s life-threatening spirit that was wrapped around the conference hall was resolved.
I’ve killed my spirit, so I won’t be able to step out recklessly now.
“I know that there is a lot of talk about the selection of the successor.
The family head slightly bowed her head and admitted her mistake.
Seeing this, the elders and elders were puzzled.
What are you trying to say by suddenly appearing low-key?
“That’s why the head of the family is going to correct that mistake now. I think that side will be good for everyone.”
The elders and elders swallowed their saliva at the words of the householder.
It was because the family head wanted to select a successor.
Among the 15 candidates, which one will be the successor of Sichuan Tang Wen?
The elders and elders looked at Dang Jin-cheol’s mouth and waited to see what he would say.
“However, in the eyes of the head of the family, everyone was so outstanding that it was impossible to distinguish between superiority and inferiority, so we had to go through difficulties in selecting the successor.”
Dang Jin-cheol paused his words and looked at the faces of those sitting in the conference room.
All of them were full of excitement and anticipation.
Dang Jin-cheol responded with a mischievous smile and continued.
“Thus, this family home is a bio that announces the opening of the Hall of Solitude.”
At his shocking remark, the expressions of everyone in the audience hardened like stone.
