"Dad, why are you..." When he saw Chu Bai entering Chen Pingping's villa alone, the oldest middle-aged man following Nangong Wuji suddenly turned gloomy. He felt that his father's performance tonight was too weak.
, so unworthy of the head of the family, as lowly as a servant.
"Shut up, all of you!" Nangong Wuji glared at this arrogant son fiercely. He knew that his humbleness just now aroused his son's resentment, but he believed that a real man should be able to bend and stretch, and sometimes he would be weaker.
That's a good thing!
Among the three sons, two of them turned blue, but only one remained calm and his heart did not beat, as if the scene just now had nothing to do with him.
In this way, Nangong Wuji and his three sons stood outside the villa in the middle of the night, not moving or moving, waiting quietly.
After Chu Bai entered the villa, he met Chen Pingping, Zeng Hong and Zhang Dong, but after listening to the strange accounts of the three people, he really couldn't guess what Nangong Wuji wanted to do.
He gave Chen Pingping the shares of the Nangong family, and even a house in Hong Kong was transferred to Chen Pingping's name, as well as Zeng Hong and Zhang Dong. The two of them barged in clearly with guns, but Nangong Wuji was
He talked pleasantly, even misunderstood them, and then let them stay with him with good food and drinks, just to wait for his return.
"Chu Bai, Nangong Wuji also has some secret forces in Nan'an, northwest of China. Well, this person always acts in a low-key manner and does not offend others easily."
"Yes, Chu Bai, after Nangong Feilong died that year, he was the one who asked me to leave. He also ordered the Nangong family not to cause trouble to me, otherwise I would never be able to survive in Nan'an in the past few years." Chen Pingping seemed to have remembered it.
The good thing about Nangong Wuji is that if you marry into a big family like the Nangong family, you will never be able to leave, and you will have to die in such a wealthy and prestigious family.
Haven't you become a widow? Well, you can be a widow in the family, with food and drink to support you, but it is impossible for you to leave. But Nangong Wuji let her leave back then.
"Wait for me here, and I will take you away later." After thinking about it, Chu Bai felt that Nangong Wuji must have something to say to him, so he simply saw what he was going to do.
When he came out again, the sky was getting brighter. Nangong Wuji was not an ancient martial arts monk, but an old man, so he looked a little tired after standing in the dark for two hours.
"Mr. Nangong, I've been waiting for a long time, let's talk!" Chu Bai said straight to the point.
"Okay, Mr. Chu, please move!" Nangong Wuji immediately raised his eyebrows and became excited. It seemed that what he did before was completely correct. This young man, an ancient martial arts monk, was interested in talking to him.
"You all are guarding outside. Mr. Chu and I have important things to discuss. No one is allowed to enter the main building without my order!" Before Nangong Wuji and Chu Bai entered the main building, even his three sons were blocked by him.
outside.
After Chu Bai entered the main building, he sat on the sofa. The decoration inside the main building was not luxurious, but it had an ancient charm. It seemed that Nangong Wuji had a very high style.
"Mr. Chu, please have tea." Nangong Wuji first handed over a cup of tea, and then said slowly: "My Nangong family has been based in the northwest for more than sixty years. My father was originally a teacher in Yiji. Later, due to the turmoil of the times, he had to
He went to sea to do business, but his father looked down on businessmen in his heart. He believed that businessmen value profits over righteousness. In ancient society, nine
Among the nine streams, businessmen are ranked last among the nine streams, even worse than farmers. My father is very proud at heart and believes that even if he is rich and can rival the country, businessmen are still the lowest class of people who survive on the breath of human beings. So he taught me since I was a child.
, Although business is about profit, one should not take righteousness lightly. Over the years, I have always put righteousness first and profit second."
"However, it is precisely because of my righteousness that my family has risen rapidly. In just over thirty years, our Nangong family has become one of the eight major families in China."
"It's just an old saying that wealth cannot last more than three generations. I am the first generation, and my three sons are the second generation. Although there are several outstanding family members in the third generation, I know that when their generation comes, the family will
Gradually declining."
"I have been careful all my life and have not offended others easily. Whether in business or as a person, I have always left others a chance of survival when dealing with enemies. When Ping Ping married into my Nangong family, it was also an exchange of interests between the Chen family and my Nangong family. But Ping Ping's
Unfortunately, her husband died on the day of the wedding. Although there are many rumors and slanders about Pingping, I know that Pingping is not to blame, so I let Pingping leave back then. This family is not suitable for her."
"Well, you are indeed very loyal in this regard!" Chu Bai nodded and interjected.
"Mr. Chu, I won't tell lies in front of you. I have investigated you before!" Nangong Wuji said slowly: "I started paying attention to you after Han Tiansheng died in a car crash with Pingping. Later, the Han family
A big change happened overnight. I also know that it has something to do with Mr. Chu. I know
Mr. Chu is an ancient martial arts expert, so today, I just want to make friends with Mr. Chu. I have no other intentions." When he said this, Nangong Wuji paused, then stood up and clasped his fists, saying: "Mr. Chu, wait a moment, I'll go.
Come as soon as you go." After saying that, Nangong Wuji went straight upstairs.
It only took less than three minutes to bring down two wooden boxes and place them in front of Chu Bai. He said with a smile: "I got these two objects accidentally back then. Please accept them, Mr. Chu."
Chu Bai glanced at the two unopened wooden boxes and said with a faint smile: "Ginseng and snow lotus seeds that are more than 1,300 years old? They are rare items. Mr. Nangong is interested in them!"
"What?" Nangong Wuji was shocked. These two wooden boxes were not opened, but how did he know what was inside the wooden boxes? How did he know? Could it be that he had clairvoyance? You know, these two
Except for himself, not even his three sons knew about the object. He even told the exact age of the ginseng?
"These two things are indeed of great use to me, so I accepted them!" Chu Bai's heart was pounding at this time. Ginseng that is more than 1,300 years old is not a strange thing. If you go to the virgin forest to find it,
, you may not be able to find it, but snow lotus seeds are a legendary medicine, a life-saving thing that can relieve monks' internal injuries and old illnesses. This kind of thing is hard to come by.
"It's good if you can enter Mr. Chu's Dharma Eyes!" Although Nangong Wuji was extremely horrified in his heart, he remained calm on the surface. Of course, he also showed a hint of joy. If the man named Chu accepted his things, then he would
It's like having one more life-saving charm.
"Mr. Chu, I wonder how much you know about Han Kui?" Nangong Wuji began to add information. If he wanted to show his kindness, he would need enough chips.
"I don't know, please ask Mr. Nangong to clarify my doubts!" Chu Bai answered truthfully.
"Han Kui is an ancient martial arts Qi training monk who comes from the 'Yunxiu Sect'. Han Kui has a younger brother who is currently developing in the political circles. He is an official in Beijing and has great power in the Ministry of Supervision. The Yunxiu Sect is located in Fujian
In the Wuyi Mountains, the Yunxiu Sect belongs to the second-rate sect of the ancient martial arts sect, and the sect leader's cultivation level should be between the eighth or ninth level of Qi training, but I have not found out the specific details."
"If Han Kui is not dead, there are only two places to stay, one is the capital and the other is Wuyi Mountain, so I hope Mr. Chu is prepared!"
"Thank you." Chu Bai raised his head and glanced at Nangong Wuji. This old man's face looked like a traitor. Just looking at his face, he was the kind of person who was a traitor. Of course, he was not a very evil person, because
He doesn't have a strong smell of blood. But he obviously has a certain purpose in showing kindness to him today. You wouldn't believe it if you just made friends with him.
"Mr. Nangong, do you need my help with anything? If so, please let me know. After all, I can't accept your gift in vain!"
"No, no!" Nangong Wuji stood up immediately, shook his head and said, "It is my Nangong family's luck and blessing to be able to make friends with such a strange person like Mr. Chu. I can't ask for anything more!"
After Chu Bai saw Nangong Wuji's behavior, he was completely surprised. This old man can do it. There is no great evil in a traitor. It seems that he wants to form a good relationship, sow good fruits, and protect the good fruits of his descendants!
"Okay, I won't bother you tonight." Chu Bai didn't reveal what Nangong Wuji was thinking. After thinking about it, he finally got up.
Nangong Wuji smiled and said: "If Mr. Chu needs help, you can send someone to notify Wuji at any time. As long as our Nangong family can help, we will do our best!"
Chu Bai nodded with a smile, clasped his fists and said goodbye.
When Nangong Wuji watched Chu Bai and his entourage leave in the car, a slight smile finally appeared on the corner of his mouth: "If you plant good causes today, there will be good results in the future. Where there is a cause, there will be a result. This is the way to be a human being. Please remember this in the future.
Don't act in a flamboyant way. There are many mysterious powers in this world that you can't understand!" Nangong Wuji remembered that Chu Bai could see the things inside the wooden box before, and he couldn't help but be frightened that the strange people and strangers in this world were really real.
a lot of.
"Dad, I'm going to have a rest!" A cold voice sounded, and the ugly-looking son turned around and left after speaking.
"Dad, we're going to have a rest too." The other two glanced at each other and caught up with the middle-aged man at the same time.
Nangong Wuji smiled bitterly. What he did tonight was indeed a bit low-level, but what does it mean? If Chu Bai showed up at their house today with a sword, even if they wanted to humble themselves, they would not give you a chance.
, so it’s better to be low-key as a human being!
With a faint smile, Nangong Wuji ignored his sons' resentment and returned to the main building.
At the same time, Nangong Changping returned to his study and smashed the tea set on the table, with veins popping up on his forehead.
He is Nangong Wuji's eldest son and Chen Pingping's father-in-law. Nangong Feilong was killed by Chen Pingping, so he has a strong opinion of Chen Pingping. And now, when he sees his father acting like a dog, he is even more dissatisfied.
I was so angry that I wanted to crush Chen Pingping to death.
"Brother." At this time, the second eldest brother Nangong Changye and the third eldest brother Nangong Changchuan walked into Nangong Changping's room together. Behind them, there was Nangong Feihe who looked like a pig and had a bloated body.
"Huh." Nangong Changping snorted coldly, which was his answer to his two younger brothers.
"Brother, don't be angry. The old man is getting older and is afraid of this and that. I think we three brothers should make a good plan." The person who spoke was the third child, Nangong Changchuan, and Nangong Feihe's father.
"What's the plan? The old man has the final say in this family, not me. What's the good plan?" Nangong Changping continued to snort coldly.
"The plan is to let the old man go out for retirement and leave the house to the eldest brother. The old man has Alzheimer's disease. If he continues to act like this, he will cause a big joke and the family will be tortured to pieces." Nangong Changchuan continued.
"Oh?" Nangong Changping was startled, then raised his eyebrows.
