Chapter 321 The dove takes over the magpie's nest
Chen Qiye summoned the current elders and principals of the Chen family to discuss the matter.
He shouted angrily, "What does Xie Zhan want to do? Damn it for him!"
Someone sneered, "Obviously, he wants to occupy the magpie's nest!"
"The heart of a man is so weak that he wants to take over 70% of the assets of our Chen family. Isn't he afraid of dying?!"
"What do we do now?"
"Master Qi, the worst possible outcome is that the fish will die and the net will be broken. We don't want to be threatened by him!"
"Yes, even if our Chen family dies, we will drag Xie Zhan with him to hell."
Bang!
Chen Qiye smashed a cup and said, "Can you calm down? Can you stop acting out of anger? It's already this time, what's the use of saying such angry words?!"
The whole place was silent.
Chen Qiye continued, "Xie Zhan may have a trump card that we don't know about. Even if the Chen family is dead, he may be fine. And don't you consider your parents, your children, and your wives?
?Be realistic!"
Then, they discussed for an entire hour, but still could not solve the Chen family's deadlock. Apart from agreeing to Xie Zhan's request, there was still a glimmer of hope.
It must be said that the fate of the Zhu family frightened Chen Qiye and other members of the Chen family.
If the emperor had not eradicated the Zhu family, they were all willing to take a gamble that Xie Zhan would not dare to hand over this information to the government or the imperial envoy.
At worst, if they lose the bet, their house will be confiscated, and their lives are not in danger. But now the fate of the Zhu family is right in front of them. The emperor is too cruel and ruthless, and they dare not gamble.
In the end, he could only succumb to Xie Zhan.
After the meeting, a clan elder looked up to the sky and sighed, "Master, you have led a wolf into the house."
Chen Qiye went to Xie Zhan and informed him of their decision.
Along the way, he found that many important positions in the clan were occupied by members of the Xie clan. His heart was full of astringency.
Chen Qiye soon met Xie Zhan, who seemed not surprised by his arrival.
"Xie Zhan, let me ask you a question. Is the death of the head of the family related to you?"
Xie Zhan explained very seriously, "Chen Jiaye and others died in flash floods."
Chen Qiye chewed on his words.
After a long time, he said, "Xie Zhan, you must have guessed my purpose of coming. We, the Chen family, are willing to give up all the properties and interests in the Southland and withdraw from the Southland."
"You said before that if all the Chen family's properties and interests in Nandi are converted into cash, we can take 20% of it, right?"
"Yes."
"Twenty percent is too little, can you give me an extra 10%? We take 30% and leave, and you still have 70% left."
Xie Zhan refused, "No. If you are willing to accept this condition, you can take the money and leave at any time. If you are not willing, I will go to the government later."
Master Chen Qi was angry, "This is the property of our Chen family. We only need 30% of it, so why not?"
Xie Zhan said calmly, "The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. I am willing to let you take 20%, which is already very kind."
He will not give them the illusion that he can negotiate terms.
People are always trying to get more than they need. Once he gives in, people like the Chen family will only feel that they want less. In the end, no matter how much he gives in, the Chen family will not be satisfied. It is better to cut off their hope of negotiating terms from the beginning.
.
"I have prepared a piece of land for the Chen family in Jiaozhou. You can go there."
Chen Qiye felt sad when he heard about Jiaozhou.
"Before noon tomorrow, I want to see everyone in the Chen family leave." Xie Zhan gave a deadline.
So fast? "Now all the major city gates are blocked."
Xie Zhan said calmly, "Don't worry about this, someone will take you out of the city tomorrow."
Master Chen Qi was in a daze. The man in front of him, Yushu Linfeng, was worthy of being the heir trained by the Chang'an family.
When he came to the Southland, he was as humble as dust, but now, with his tricks and strategies, he led his family to occupy a place in the Southland.
Chen Baozhu finally found out about Xie Zhanjiu's occupation of the Magpie Nest and the expulsion of the Chen clan.
Chen Baozhu was frightened by the flash flood. Although she survived, the doctor said she had fetal gas when she came back. She has been in bed recently to nurse the fetus, but in the end the baby was not saved. She is currently in confinement.
"No, I don't believe it. I want to see him in person!"
The Chen clan didn't stop her, everyone wanted to see if she could change the outcome.
However, Xie Zhan did not see her and only asked Xie Nan to hand over a letter of separation to her.
Chen Baozhu couldn't believe it and cried and asked to see Xie Zhan.
Chen Qiye slapped her, "Stop humiliating yourself!"
Looking at the closed door, Chen Qiye felt cold-hearted, Xie Zhan's heart was too hard.
The head of the house and others all thought wrong. A woman cannot hold him down.
Finally, Chen Baozhu was helped away by her mother and the strong women in the clan.
That night, most of the Chen family did not sleep. They were packing their small luggage.
There were bursts of whimpering from many people.
At the dawn of dawn, nearly two to three hundred members of the Chen family had already gotten up. They were either carrying luggage or pushing carts. The carts were piled with important items, and some of them were holding children in their hands.
Led by Xie Nan, they arrived at the southern city gate.
All the members of the Chen clan did not understand why they were expelled from the Southland overnight and were as panic-stricken as a lost dog.
"Master Qi, why is this?"
They don't understand why the Chen family has reached such a state?
Chen Qiye sighed and said, "Winning king or losing bandit, time waits for no one. From now on, let's work together and strive to fight back one day!"
The scene of the Chen family leaving the Southland also fell into the eyes of Xue Xu, Qin Sheng, Ji Wuyin and others.
Lu Fei and Xie Zhan both moved very quickly, but Xue Xu had been paying attention to Xie Zhan's movements. Almost as soon as he completed his plan to take the Chen family as his own, Xue Xu learned the news.
Seeing the miserable situation of the Chen family, Ji Wuyin shook his head and said, "Xie Zhanjiu occupied the magpie's nest. This is how miserable the Chen family is."
Xue Xu: "Who asked Chen Jiaye to lead a wolf into the house? The Chen family should be in such trouble."
Ji Wuyin cursed in his heart, wasn't it your wife Qin Liu who asked me to lure Xie Zhan to Chen Jiaye with all his strength? Chen Jiaye was unjustly taking the blame.
"Old immortal, since you have noticed Xie Zhan's move to close the net, why don't you go and stir things up?" Ji Wuyin asked.
Xue Xu: "Why stir up trouble? Xie Zhan is the enemy of Mrs. Qin Liu, and the Chen family is my enemy. Who do you want me to help? And do you think the Chen family will listen to me?"
Ji Wuyin choked.
"It's better to let them dog eat dog. Besides, we are too busy to get involved."
Xue Xu always remembered the purpose of their coming to the south. Xie Zhan was closing the net, and they were also working day and night to gain profits. The book shop run by Wu Ren was impressive. Liu Erxi was currently working hard to bring the bookstore to the south.
The foot-operated harvester was sold to surrounding landowners, who were all busy trying to make money.
"I have to say, you guys are really talented and brave people. The southern land is in such chaos, you are trying to take advantage of the fire." Ji Wuyin sighed, this group of people in Liaodong County are really hardworking, with the same energy as when he first made his fortune.
"Suffice the bold to death and starve the timid to death."
Ji Wuyin nodded, what he said was indeed correct, Lu Songli was really good at fishing in troubled waters.
In this round, Nandi was very advantageous, and Lu Songli got three of them.
"You came to Nandi to ruin Xie Zhan's affairs and pick Xie Zhan's fruits. Aren't you afraid of his revenge?"
It was with this in mind that they restrained themselves.
As the saying goes, those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. They picked so many peaches from Xie Zhan, so they had to let Xie Zhan wear shoes no matter what. Only then would he have any scruples.
