Chapter 75: Entering the Chen Mansion

Mr. Chen sighed and said, "Taoist master, you don't mind, just follow the old man for a few steps, right?"
Zhang Lin smiled when he heard this and said, "Mr. Chen, please!"
Mr. Chen walked in front without hesitation, followed by Zhang Lin.
The two were walking and talking in Xiangyin City.
Mr. Chen told Zhang Lin about the origins of Xiangyin City, its geography and humanities, and some of the Chen family's fortune history.
Soon, Zhang Ning had a general understanding of Xiangyin and the Chen family.
As the two talked, they became familiar with each other.
Near noon, the two went to the teahouse to drink tea and talk about the past and present, the romance of the emperors.
While he was talking, a young man came from downstairs and walked quickly to Mr. Chen. He glanced at Zhang Lin opposite, lowered his head and whispered to Mr. Chen.
Thinking about it, what he said was not a good thing, because when Mr. Chen listened, he sometimes frowned, sometimes became angry, and his face looked uncertain.
After the man finished speaking, Mr. Chen Fang bowed his hands to Zhang Lin and said with an apologetic smile: "Taoist Master, I'm really sorry. There are sudden urgent matters at home that need to be dealt with. How about we talk about it some other time?"
Zhang Lin laughed when he heard this and said: Even if Mr. Chen's family is troubled by trouble, it is not convenient for the poor Taoist to stay. You and I will talk about the ancient and modern exchanges some other time. It happens that the poor Taoist will stay in Xiangyin for a few days. You and I have plenty.
time."
When Mr. Chen heard this, he smiled and said, "In that case, Taoist Priest, we will talk about it another day."
He said to the young man next to him: "Maguai, take this Taoist priest to your house to settle down and stay there for a few days. This is a guest of our Chen family, so we must not neglect him."
Hearing this, Huamaguai nodded and assured: "Don't worry, old man, Maguai will definitely make arrangements."
As Mr. Chen stood up to leave, Huama walked over to Zhang Lin and asked Zhang Lin to move and live with him in the Chen Mansion for a few days.
Zhang Lin shook his head and said to the back of Mr. Chen who was about to go downstairs: "Mr. Chen's meeting is destined to happen. Your Chen family's good deeds today have benefited the country and the people. I also have a word of advice here, 'The Yin energy is too strong.
For fear of damaging merit, it is better to do less of some things. After all, it cannot be made up for by repairing bridges and roads or aiding refugees.'"
After hearing this, Mr. Chen turned to look at Zhang Lin. After a long time, he nodded slowly and said, "I will bear in mind the Taoist Master's golden and wise words. You go with Huama and stay in the house temporarily, and help me finish the housework.
Let’s talk freely.”
Hearing this, Zhang Lin thanked him and said, "That poor fellow is disturbing your house!"
Mr. Chen smiled, said nothing, and left with his servants. Zhang Lin also moved into the Chen Mansion under the leadership of Huamaguai.
When Mr. Chen returned to his residence, he hurried to the Chen family's lobby and asked someone to find Chen Yulou.
The reason why he was anxious was because Hua Maguai told him at the teahouse just now that Chen Yulou had planned to go to Lao Xiong Ridge with Luo Laowai to collect the treasure.
Where is Lao Xiong Ridge?
That place is a dangerous place, and all the burials are deep and large, without trees or seals. The two generations of the Chen family have already experienced the dangers involved.
Today this traitor actually wants to go to that place.
A month ago, he ignored his own warning and went his own way to open a warehouse to store grain. After all, it could build up some moral character and a reputation for kindness for the Chen family.
As for the civil unrest that he and Zhang Lin talked about, there are tens of thousands of warriors in Xiling to protect him. In addition, in the past two years, Chen Yulou has dispersed his family wealth, controlled, won over and supported many warlords, big and small. It is not difficult to think about it.
But now, he actually wanted to touch Lao Xiongling's tomb.
At Lao Xiong Ridge, the previous two generations of the Chen family had lost many good players there. Didn't he know that?
Mr. Chen was waiting for Chen Yulou in the lobby and was angry at him for being unwise.
Soon, the servant informed Chen Yulou that Mr. Chen came to the lobby accompanied by Hong Gu after looking for him.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Mr. Chen sitting in the lobby smoking a cigarette. His presence was not as eager as the servant said. Chen Yulou, who was confused for a moment, stepped forward and asked: "Dad."
, I heard you were looking for me?"
Mr. Chen glanced at Chen Yulou and asked with disdain: "I heard they said you are going to Lao Xiong Ridge. Do you know where that place is?"
When Chen Yulou heard this, he became angry. He summoned the Xiling brothers and wanted to go to Lao Xiongling while the old man was out.
Originally, according to the plan, when the old man came back at noon, he had already led Honggu and the others to set off. How long had it been now? The old man came back after hearing the news, which showed that someone was spreading the news.
As for this person, no need to guess, Chen Yulou also knew that it was Huamaguai who did it.
Now seeing that the old man already knew, he replied as if he could do anything to me: "Of course I know."
"You know?" Mr. Chen heard the words and said: "You know it, but you don't know your own capabilities? The old Xiong Ridge is buried deep and large, without trees or seals. In addition, it is difficult to distinguish the dangers, so it can be said that there is no return.
The two generations of leaders of the Chen family have killed many people but failed to succeed. Even I dare not pay attention to them. Are you going to make the same mistake again today?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Yulou replied: "Dad, just because your seniors can't do something, it doesn't mean that your juniors can't do it. If you continue to speak, I have already let you go. The brothers in Xiling have already assembled. They are just waiting for my order."
Just develop it as a whole. You have to give the younger generations a chance!"
As if he couldn't see Mr. Chen, whose face turned dark, Chen Yulou said to himself: "Just stay at home and take care of the house, and wait for your son to bring back the good news. My brothers are still waiting for me, so my son will leave first."
After Chen Yulou finished speaking, he withdrew.
As soon as he went out, he happened to see Huamaguai, who had arranged Zhang Lin's residence, coming from outside. He glared at him angrily before leaving.
Seeing this, Huama turned around with an embarrassed look on his face and made way for Chen Yulou to leave first. As a bodyguard of the Chen family, he had no choice but to obey Mr. Chen's orders.
When Mr. Chen, who was angry, saw Huama turning back, he welcomed him into the house and assigned him a new task. Then he asked, "Has the Taoist Priest's residence been arranged?"
Huama turned around and said, "Don't worry, sir, I have arranged for the Taoist Priest to stay in the best guest room in the Chen family."
After hearing this, Mr. Chen nodded with satisfaction and said: "You did a good job, but this time you go with Yulou, you must take good care of him, and you must not make any mistakes."
Hearing this, Huamaguai patted his chest repeatedly and promised that he would take good care of Chen Yulou. Fang asked out his doubts and said, "Master, I see that you are very interested in that Taoist priest. What is his background?"
The reason why Huamaguai is confused is because the Chen family is the richest man in Xiangyin, and the old man was also the leader of Xiling. He was also a man of the generation like Chen Yulou.
As an old man, I have never seen anyone treat a Taoist whom I just met so politely.
When Mr. Chen heard this, he said: "It's nothing, it's just that I noticed that the Taoist priest had a temperament similar to that of Yulou who was concerned about the country and the people. Yulou had been a disciple of the Taoist since he was a child and learned all the skills he has now, so he felt something about it.
Fang stepped forward to make friends, but he never thought that although he was young, his knowledge was indeed extraordinary, so Fang treated him with great courtesy.
I feel in my heart that this person will be of great benefit to my Chen family and Xiling.
And I watched her move like a dragon and a tiger, and she was full of energy. I saw that she was a practicing master, and her skills were probably still above Honggu's.
