Chapter 301 opens up a new world 15
Without Li Qinglin's order, Li Qinglin's soldiers immediately fucked their guns. After a "slam, slam" sound, everyone was loaded with fire and the muzzles were pointed at the visitor.
"Don't shoot, don't shoot, it's the Third Young Master who is back," Wang Leshan shouted anxiously.
The man quickly ran in front of him, leading a young man in his twenties. Due to the rapid running, the young man looked sweaty.
This young man is of medium height and fair skin. He has a round face, a big back head, wearing a poplin summer suit, and holding a box cannon in his hand. This man is Chen Shide's third son, Chen Jinbao.
Chen Jinbao had long seen a large group of national troops in front of the village. After he ran over, he shouted repeatedly: "Thank you so much, thank you so much."
When he moved, Wang Leshan introduced Li Qinglin to him. Chen Jinbao grabbed Li Qinglin's hand and said, "Sir Li, fortunately you came in time, so our Chenjia Village can keep all the safety of the area."
He then said to Wang Leshan: "It's so hot that the bosses are standing in the sun. Why don't you invite the bosses into the village?"
Li Qinglin said: "Forget it, there are too many people in them. If you go in, it will disturb the people. Let them stay outside."
Chen Jinbao said repeatedly: "Whether it is, I will send someone to greet them later. But Chief Li must go in. I will give you a few glasses of wine today."
Although Chen Jinbao is not old, he is very experienced in speaking and doing things. He is obviously a veteran who often deals with people. Li Qinglin admires him very much and said, "You go in first to meet your parents. I will change my clothes and go in."
"Okay, Chief Li, I'll wait for you at home." After that, he brought his men into the village.
After Li Qinglin and the guard squad changed into the military uniforms brought by Zhang Ergou, they entered the village. Zhang Ergou was responsible for commanding the officers and soldiers to find a forest outside the village to rest. Sure enough, people were sent out from the village. They carried the pot, carried rice, flour, meat and vegetables, and came to boil water and cook for the officers and soldiers.
When Li Qinglin stepped into the large living room of Chen Shide's house, Chen Jinbao had already packed up and was waiting for him.
Chen Shide was still in poor spirits. He lay on a large recliner with a thin quilt on his body. It seemed that this incident had caused a great blow to his body and spirit. His four wives were also sitting in the living room, with everyone's faces grim. Mu Jinshan was still standing in the corner of the wall, continuing to show his identity as a housekeeper, but he lowered his head and lost his previous aggressive aura.
Judging from the atmosphere in the living room, what news Chen Jinbao brought from outside and what decision Chen Shide should have made. This decision seemed very important, which affected the emotions of everyone in the room.
Li Qinglin changed into a straight military uniform, wearing a pair of black single leather shoes, the collar and the symbols on his chest were both major, Li Qinglin had an armed belt, and the armed belt was equipped with a continuum rapper showing his identity. Li Qinglin, in military uniform, looked heroic
As soon as Li Qinglin entered the house, Chen Jinbao stood up and bowed: "Sir Li, I just heard from my father that your troops were introducing your troops to help our small village fight back the bandits. I am very grateful. In order to express my village's wishes, my father decided to donate a thousand dollars to supplement the number of military supplies of your troops."
Li Qinglin also bowed and said, "It is a matter of our army to safeguard the people and eliminate violence and good deeds. I am really ashamed of the love of your village."
"Sir Li is really polite. You are really worthy of protecting the country and the people. I think Chief Li doesn't need to refuse. My father just told me that if the noble army has any food and needs to donate it in the future, as long as my village can bear it, my Chenjia Village will never refuse."
"Captain Li, the matters in the village will be handled by Jin Bao, the third and fourth wives in the village will be handled in the future. If you have any requests from the army, please ask them." Chen Shide, who was lying on the large recliner, suddenly spoke, but he could hear that Chen Shide's breath was very weak, and it seemed that his physical condition was not optimistic.
"Thank you Mr. Chen for your support to our army. I am very grateful." Li Qinglin stood up and saluted Chen Shide.
After turning around, Li Qinglin glanced at the people in the room and said in a deep voice: "Last night, the bandits had reached two thousand people, and there were heavy firepower such as machine guns. Although their attack was frustrated, it did not hurt the root of the situation. Such forces that harmed the country and the people were around. Maybe one day they would make a comeback. I decided to take advantage of our army's new victory to give them a fatal blow to eliminate future troubles."
"You should also talk to them about killing all the thieves and killing them to eliminate them. I am tired and it's time to go and rest." Chen Shide said these words, then closed his eyes and stopped talking.
Seeing Chen Shide say something, the wives rushed over and sent Chen Shide to the backyard to recuperate.
The eldest wife of the Chen family and the butler Mu Jinshan are both doing well now, but Chen Shide did not let them take charge of the business. It seems that Chen Jinbao has obtained the management rights of Chenjiazhai.
Li Qinglin clasped his fists and smiled at Chen Jinbao: "Congratulations to the Third Master."
Chen Jinbao looked at the servants in the house and said to Li Qinglin: "I dare not, it's urgent now. My father asked me to handle some affairs for the time being."
But he continued to smile and said, "Sir Li, I will have a few drinks with you at noon. We will have a deep conversation at that time."
The luncheon at noon was even more sumptuous than last night. Chen Shide did not come out to accompany him. The ones who accompanied him were Chen Jinbao, his third wife and fourth wife.
With Chen Shide's clear reply, everything went smoothly in Chenjiazhai. Li Qinglin proposed that the matter of food logistics and intelligence sources needed to suppress the bandits, and decided on the spot at the dinner table.
After dinner, Chen Jinbao took the excuse of accompanying Li Qinglin to visit the troops outside the village, and accompanied Li Qinglin out of the Chenjia Village.
Li Qinglin's troops helped Chenjiazhai to repel the bandits, and the villagers naturally felt it was unsatisfactory. Although the troops were temporarily stationed in the wild, the villagers not only cooked a sumptuous lunch for them, but also built a sun-shaded straw shed for them. After Li Qinglin visited the troops briefly, he sat under one of the straw sheds and talked about things with Chen Jinbao.
Some villagers had already set up tables and chairs and brewed two cups of tea. After the two sat down, Chen Jinbao said straight to the point: "Sir Li, after what happened last night, you may have seen that my Chen family is not peaceful now."
Li Qinglin smiled and said, "I don't know much about other things. I only know that yesterday the eldest wife and Butler Mu were in charge of the business. Today, you and the other two wives were in charge of the business."
Chen Jinbao picked up the teacup and took a sip, saying, "Our Chen family is not peaceful because of who is in charge of the matter."
On this hot summer afternoon, under this straw shed, Chen Jinbao drank tea and explained the whole story of the matter in a scattered manner.
Chen Shide was not born with weak bones, but because he had sucked opium since he was a child and got married after being a minor. The one who made him sucked opium and got married at a young age was not someone else, but his parents.
The Chen family has long been the richest man in the local area, and Chen Shide is the only male in the Chen family. Chen Shide was smart and lively when he was young and was extremely active. He was afraid that he would not be able to stay at home after he became an adult, so he adopted the method of Shanxi merchants to let his children smoke opium and marry young.
Once children get opium and have the concern of their wives and children, they no longer travel far and will stay with their parents.
Chen Shide was involved in these two things when he was young, and he always stayed in Chenjiazhai. However, after middle age, Chen Shide's body began to deteriorate, so he entrusted the big and small things at home to his eldest wife and Mu Jinshan for the care of them.
The eldest wife and Chen Shide gave birth to two sons. The two sons went out to do business after they became adults. Since the eldest wife took charge of the money, she kept sending the money to these two sons. Although Chen Shide had heard of it, it was his own son after all, and it was not too much to give them money, so she turned a blind eye to them.
What's even more disgusting is that Mu Jinshan is the brother of the eldest wife and has been a housekeeper in Chenjiazhai for many years. After the great wife came to power, the Mu Jinshan family began to develop. In a few years, Mu Jinshan bought more than 100 acres of land in his hometown Mu Village. Although he was still working as a housekeeper, he was actually a small landlord.
Some people say that the eldest wife gave him a lot of money, while others say that Mu Jinshan embezzled a lot of money by taking advantage of the opportunity to do business for Chenjiazhai. However, the rumors were rumors after all, and they were not proved by facts.
As a result, the other wives began to worry and joined forces for the same purpose.
Although the second wife has the son of Chen Jinbao, he is not the legitimate son or the eldest son. If Chen Shide continues like this, it will be very good if Chen Jinbao can share the land to support his family. The third wife and the fourth wife have no descendants. If Chen Shide goes on a hundred years later, they are very likely to have nothing.
The third wife is named Jin Xiaoai, who comes from a family of vendors. She found an opportunity to ask Chen Shide for a shop to manage. After so many years of hard work, she has a very talented business and is actually growing bigger and bigger. Now she has developed into seven stores in various places, including a Fenggu Grain and Oil Store in Sangyu Town.
The fourth wife is a farmer and has no education, but she has one advantage, that is, her brother Wang Leshan now basically controls the Zhuang Ding of Chenjiazhai, and can be regarded as mastering some armed forces.
Like Li Wancai, Chen Shide did not only have one manor in Chenjiazhai. These manors were also guarded by the villages and were equipped with guns and ammunition. Today, Chen Jinbao received a secret whistle and went to each village to notify reinforcements. Unexpectedly, two of them were controlled by Mu Jinshan and refused to send troops for various reasons.
Chen Jinbao had no choice but to notify the third brigade of Sangyu Town and ask them to send troops to fight the bandits, and then bring the patriarchs who were willing to support Chenjiazhai to rescue them quickly.
Everything that happened last night had already made the second, third and fourth wife suspected that the bandit attack was related to Mu Jinshan, and the current situation even more showed that Mu Jinshan was inseparable from this matter. After Chen Shide learned about the situation, he made a decision on the spot. In the future, Chen Jinbao, third and fourth wife were temporarily in charge of everything. Mu Jinshan would no longer manage the affairs without confirming his innocence.
"Sir Li, I need your help now." Chen Jinbao said at last.
"What do you need me to help you?" Li Qinglin asked after taking a sip of tea.
"I need you to suppress the bandits. I want to know who is the thief. I want to become the master of Chenjiazhai." Chen Jinbao said, his eyes emitting a fanatical light.
Li Qinglin smiled and said, "I can help you, but what benefits can I get?"...
