Chen Fuan's Chen Mansion is quite unique in the entire wealthy area of Kuaiji.
Why?
The main reason is that the location he is in is really inconsistent with his identity.
——
Qinxiang Street—among the wealthy neighborhoods in Shanyin Dongcheng, is a neighborhood reserved exclusively for aristocratic families.
For example, Gu Shao before... After investigating Chen Fu'an's residence, Yi Xiaotian discovered that his house was not far from Gu Shao's Gu Mansion.
In addition to the Gu Mansion, the Chen Mansion is very close to the Xie Mansion of the Xie family in Kuaiji, as well as Zhang Hong's residence.
From this point, we can actually see that Chen Fuan is quite restless.
He himself quite expected to obtain the same status as the aristocratic family - but the aristocratic family thought exactly the opposite.
In a sense, Chen Fuan's life was quite frustrating.
As a businessman, without the support of status, he will always be looked down upon by aristocratic families. Not only will they look down upon him, but they will even deliberately suppress him - just like what the Zhang family did, they do not want the existing family structure.
It will be destroyed by a sudden upstart.
And what Chen Fuan has been trying to do for so many years is to use various means to obtain a status that he would have been unlikely to achieve - it seems that in Kuaiji, the Yu family and the Xie family are stronger.
But in fact, Chen Fuan relied on his accumulation over the years to acquire much more land than several major families.
The land outside Shanyin City and near Kuaiji Mountain is basically under Chen Fuan's name.
Chen Fuan's reputation also became bad at this time - he was a businessman who relied on various price reductions, threats, and the power of the Salt Merchants Chamber of Commerce to do many unjust things. His reputation was as bad as the bad.
How stinky.
But... the emperor who opposed Chen Fu'an was the one who was ridiculed by people.
Thinking about this kind of thing just makes people feel sad.

"Is anyone home?"
Dang Dang Dang——
"Is anyone at home?"
Dang Dang Dang——
Outside the Chen Mansion, I remembered the sound of knocking on the door after a long absence.
The shop head was buckled on the iron gate, and the crisp sound it made spread throughout the street.
No answer?
Yi Xiaotian stood at the door. Although Huang Xiang said that he was not afraid, but just looking at his standing position, there was still a huge distance between Yi Xiaotian and him. This was too scary.
Yi Xiaotian had no time to talk to Huang Xiang. He thought that Chen Fuan was not there. He wanted to put his ear against the iron door to listen to the sound inside, but before he could do so... instead, it was on the other side of the door in the opposite direction.
, there were some discordant sounds.
"Old immortal...what are you doing here? Could it be that you are poor and have no money to eat, so you came here to beg for money?"
woman?
Yi Xiaotian turned around in confusion, only to see Huang Xiang standing at the entrance of the alley. In front of him was a woman dressed in a coquettish way.
The woman looked young, but because of the heavy makeup and the extremely bad attitude when speaking, she did not have the slightest air of a lady.
In addition, he was full of valuable jewelry and jades. If Yi Xiaotian had to use one word to describe her, that would be.
"Vulgar..."
Compared with the lively and cute Sun Shangxiang, and the arrogant little lolita Lu Lingqi, this woman... is not only vulgar, but also very disgusting.
However, for Huang Xiang, the appearance of this woman represented an unforgettable period in his life.
"Ming'er...you...I...I didn't come here today to quarrel with you..."
Huang Xiang was hesitant to speak, and had many words on his lips, but when he saw the woman in front of him, he finally suppressed his words.
From here, Yi Xiaotian could see that Huang Xiang was not afraid of this woman, but...
"Old immortal, stop pretending. You are in rags. You want to pretend to have a decent life in front of me. Don't think I don't know that you were thrown out of the house on the street yesterday.
thing."
"Haha... sever the relationship between father and daughter? I wish I could. With such an embarrassing father like you, how can you teach me how to go out and meet people?"
As expected, Yi Xiaotian sighed and walked straight towards the imperial elephant without any further hesitation.
This woman whom Huang Xiang calls "Ming'er" is probably his daughter Huang Ming, whose father-daughter relationship has been severed by Huang Xiang.
When he saw the woman Huang Ming for the first time, combined with the information Yi Xiaotian had received before, he probably already knew what kind of woman this Huang Ming was.
But right now, what Yi Xiaotian should do more is to protect Huang Xiang... After all, as Huang Xiang said, they didn't come here just to quarrel.
Huang Ming pressed forward step by step, while Huang Xiang retreated step by step. Huang Ming was accompanied by several servants with rather unkind expressions. At some point, Huang Ming seemed to have given them some instructions, and then... the situation began to take a turn for the worse.
A friendly direction has developed.
"You...what do you want to do?"
When he saw the servant next to his daughter pulling out a stick from somewhere, the emperor's legs began to weaken.
Huang Ming seemed to be enjoying this situation. While looking at her embarrassing father trembling, she kept saying:
"Immortal...Immortal...If I don't teach you a lesson today...you are really haunted!"
"Wait!"
Yi Xiaotian hurried over and stood directly in the middle of the group of big men and the imperial elephant.
He didn't want to fight - there were two reasons. One was because it conflicted with their purpose today. If the fight really prevented his plan from being fully carried out, it would be more than worth the gain.
Secondly...
Huang Ming obviously didn't care who was standing in front of Huang Xiang. Seeing that someone dared to stop her made her even more angry.
Huang Ming, who was originally quite pretty, now had a distorted face and howled like an angry porcupine, with all the sharp hairs on his body exploding.
"I'll beat this kid too! Beat me to death!"
Huang Xiang turned pale with fright when he heard the other party's undisguised order, but at this time he really didn't know what to do.
While thinking about letting Yi Xiaotian leave here, at the same time he was afraid that he would be beaten...
But it was obvious that Yi Xiaotian knew this, so he shouted "Wait a minute"...
These words are not meant to protect the imperial elephant - these words are actually meant to protect the other side...
——
"Tsk...I told you, do you really have a short memory?"
At some point, from behind Huang Ming, I suddenly remembered the voice of a strange man.
Just hearing this sound gave her goosebumps all over her body.
Murderous intent? Murderous intent?
"Wha...who is that person?"
Huang Ming turned around in horror, only to see a black shadow passing in front of him like the wind.
Before Huang Ming could react, a series of screams from servants rang out, instantly putting her in a state of panic.
