Chapitre 721: The Origin of the Legendary Families

Xiong Zhi narrowed her eyes at the characters she recognized at the screen.

"So in those twelve families, the Tangs, Lus, Xiongs, and Guans are included, am I correct?"

"Yes." Linfeng nodded. 

If the Zhou family had not fallen, perhaps they would also be part of those families. Unfortunately, it had been a long time since they were taken under the Xiong family's wing when this happened. 

"The four families were awarded due to their special merits that were appreciated by the common people…"

The origins of the four legendary families.

The Xiong family was a family of merchants who supplied many unique specialities and tributes from various parts of the world to the imperial family. They also maintained affordable pricing for basic needs and regularly committed to charity, which supported the poor populace at difficult times when the prices were unstable due to unscrupulous merchants and bribed officials.
