Chapter Seven: The Umbrella Enshrined in the Ancestral Hall
Su Wenluo had never thought about sitting in a restaurant.
"Uncle Tai..."
Su Wenluo looked up and suddenly realized that Uncle Tai's hair had turned gray at some point.
'Uncle Tai has never thought about fighting for a seat in the restaurant. I just want to do business with peace of mind and become a rich man!'
"Luo Zai, times have changed. Today's era is no longer the era when your father and I were loyal."
"In this era, it's all about who has money, power, and background. Now the ship with Liansheng is in jeopardy.
A hurricane may pass by at any time, and this ship will sink, and we old guys just need to find a good helmsman for this ship."
"That guy A Le has no ability, so he only knows how to draw big cakes. Even if you give him two years, the most he can do is get more money, but you are different."
"You will take the ship of He Liansheng and move it in the right direction."
"97 is coming soon. Although we are members of a short mule gang, we are also very patriotic."
.........
This conversation lasted for more than two hours. No one in the study except Su Wenluo and Long Wang Tai knew what they talked about.
...........
"I'm getting older, and I'm a bit chatty. Luo Zai, your uncle Biao's dog meat pot is almost ready. Let's go and try it together!"
Su Wenluo stepped forward and helped Dragon King Tai out of the study.
At the dinner table, Dragon King Tai sat at the main seat. Dinner didn't really start until Dragon King Tai moved his chopsticks.
A meal of dog meat pot lasted almost an hour. In fact, Dragon King Tai had finished eating half an hour ago, but looking at Su Wenluo enjoying the meal, Dragon King Tai did not put down his chopsticks.
When the last piece of dog meat in the pot entered Su Wenluo's belly, Dragon King Tai put down his chopsticks.
"As people get older, their appetites are really not as good as those of you young people!"
"Luo Zai, come with me!"
After seeing Su Wenluo put down his chopsticks, Dragon King Tai stood up.
Su Wenluo stepped forward to help.
After passing through a long corridor, a room appeared at the end. Before he even got close, Su Wenluo smelled the scent of sandalwood.
"Uncle Tai, where is this?"
"Open the door and come in with me!"
Following the footsteps of Dragon King Tai, Su Wenluo entered this ancestral hall filled with the scent of sandalwood.
What came into view was a huge string of slowly burning incense, with sixteen black boxes hanging around it.
Su Wenluo looked at the orientation and overall shape of these boxes, and the more he looked at them, the more they looked like umbrellas.
"Here, give your dad some incense!"
While Su Wenluo was still observing the layout of the room, Dragon King Tai lit a handful of incense, then took out three sticks and gave them to Su Wenluo.
"Dad???"
Su Wenluo was confused, but soon he discovered that there were more than a dozen spiritual tablets enshrined on the incense table in the middle of the room.
The spiritual place of Su Shilang Renshan!
Su Renshan, isn't he his dead father?
Su Wenluo looked at Uncle Tai.
Dragon King Tai nodded, confirming Su Wenluo's idea.
Su Wenluo took the incense respectfully, then bowed three times and started to burn the incense.
"Luo Zai, go and offer incense sticks to each of them!"
Dragon King Tai handed all the incense in his hand to Su Wenluo.
"Brothers and ancestors, the child is back. You must protect Luo Zai below. He is the only descendant of our lineage. You must not let anything happen to him."
Looking at Su Wenluo who was offering incense one after another, Dragon King Tai said to the spiritual tablets in front of him.
Su Wenluo didn't know this. The spiritual tablets in front of him were covered with a layer of black gauze, except for his father's one that was exposed.
Although Su Wenluo was curious, he did not take the initiative to ask or find out.
Because he knew that when he should know, Uncle Tai would tell him everything.
.......
"Uncle Tai, what are these boxes?"
After Su Wenluo helped Dragon King Tai sit down, he looked at the black metal boxes.
"If you want to know, go and see for yourself!"
Su Wenluo walked under the umbrella, looked at the box marked with the six of spades in front of him, and turned to look at Uncle Tai.
Uncle Tai nodded, Su Wenluo took a deep breath and opened the box.
When the box is opened, what comes into view is a photo and a leather document bag.
Su Wenluo was confused. This was very different from what he thought.
"Luo Zai, this is not only a place to enshrine our lineage of the Su family, but also a place to enshrine this umbrella."
"As long as nothing happens to the people in this umbrella, our Su family will not decline!"
Uncle Tai said as he uncovered the black gauze-covered tablet next to his father. Su Wenluo could clearly see the name on the tablet.
Su Rentai!
"Uncle Tai, this..."
Su Wenluo was confused.
"Su Rentai is me. I am Su Rentai. Your father, Su Renshan, is the fourth child in our family and is also my youngest brother."
"So, I am your uncle..."
Su Wenluo took a step back. He really didn't expect these things.
The Dragon King Tai in front of me, who had been sitting with Liansheng more than ten years ago during the period of the Four Detectives, was actually his uncle.
It's really exciting.
At this moment, Su Wenluo also figured out many things. Why did his predecessor fail to pass the entrance exam for the police force, and then was admitted again inexplicably.
"Back then, you applied for the police force. This was something I didn't expect. One month before you graduated, I also said hello to my superiors. As long as you are in the police force, the position of deputy commissioner of the police will be yours for twenty years.
, but I never thought that you would become an undercover agent before graduation."
"Then when you first saw me?"
"That was just for A Tian. If you let him know your identity, you won't be able to do your current business at all!"
"Also, next time you call the police, don't let your own people make the call. There are people from A Tian in the police force, and I have already taken care of it for you!"
Su Wenluo didn't expect that his seemingly perfect plan would have so many loopholes.
"Uncle, thank you!"
Su Wenluo was very grateful.
"Luo Zai, remember, since you have chosen to come out to hang out, you must be the biggest, fiercest and richest one!"
Su Rentai gave the file in the Six of Spades box to Su Wenluo.
This ghost guy is the head of Hong Kong Island Customs. From now on, your goods will go directly to the customs for customs declaration, and he will leave half of each batch of goods.
Su Wenluo understood that starting from today, direct goods no longer need to be smuggled over by sea.
As long as you go through customs, you will have formal channels and you can establish a direct brand.
"Tabber, thank you!"
"Luo Zai, do your best, but remember, people from the Su family cannot touch washing powder even if they starve to death."
Obviously, Su Rentai was quite disgusted with Ren Qingtian's laundry detergent business in recent years.
"Tabo, I remember, I will never touch things like washing powder that will destroy my descendants!"
