Chapter 238: The Master of the Mao Family (Part 1)
Xu Changqing did not agree or object, stared at Chen Hui for a while before slowly saying: "You did not inform the side tribe of the acquisition of land this time, but made the decision to privately call Hong Kong funds, right?"
"Yes! It's your personal idea." Chen Hui's face became a little ugly. Without quibbling, he nodded and begged: "I hope sir, save me! If this matter is known to the clan, it will definitely..."
"Okay, I'll help you this time." Xu Changqing interrupted Chen Hui's words coldly, then looked at Chen Hui with a serious expression and said, "But I hope this will not happen again in the future. In addition, if this business is done, you'd better go to Shanghai to thank Weng Chen. Don't think that you're doing it very secretly and no one knows it. I think the reason why Weng Chen told you my whereabouts is that he knows your predicament and wants to help you."
Chen Hui was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it, he realized it suddenly, his eyes full of gratitude.
The carriage was slowly driving on the bumpy road, and no one spoke any further. After passing a slum, the carriage slowly moved up to the hillside to the east of Tsim Sha Tsui Pier, and finally stopped in front of a common southern house. At this moment, three or four carriages had been parked on the floor in front of the door, and it seemed that someone had arrived first.
After the carriage stopped, the servant of the He family stepped forward and opened the car door, bowed to greet Chen Hui and Xu Changqing. Seeing their skillful appearance, it was not the first time Chen Hui has been here. At this moment, a beautiful woman in a Western long skirt and a plump body walked out of the He family's courtyard. When she saw Chen Hui, she immediately showed a look of happiness on her face. She hurriedly came up. Regardless of the eyes of the people around her, she hugged Chen Hui's arm and said intimately: "Yuqing, you are finally here! The Tan family and the He family brought two more mages, who were the masters of the previous two, and seemed very powerful. Fortunately, I dragged them away and was about to ask someone to find you, but I didn't expect you to come so by chance. It seems that we still have a good understanding. By the way, did the master you mentioned yesterday invite?"
The woman said a lot to herself as soon as she came up, not caring whether others had heard her clearly. Chen Hui was obviously used to the carefreeness of this woman and smiled awkwardly at Xu Changqing. When the woman stopped breathing, she quickly introduced: "This is Miss He Ling, the gentleman's sister of He Zhengsheng," and then introduced Xu Changqing, "This is Mr. Xu, and the master I mentioned yesterday."
Seeing Xu Changqing with such a young appearance, He Ling was stunned for a moment, looked up and down, and said, "It's indeed very tall, much taller than ordinary Chinese." Then he laughed a few times, and then said, "Look at this Mr. Xu's dress should be a Western scholar. Is there any way to exorcise evil spirits and catch ghosts in Western learning?"
Hearing He Ling speaks to Xu Changqing without any restraint, Chen Hui's face turned pale. He didn't know what to do, for fear that Xu Changqing would get angry. However, Xu Changqing didn't care at all. Instead, he admired this straightforward and generous personality. So he joked rarely, and took out the cross of the Western Holy See from the universe in his sleeve, gestured the cross on his chest, imitating the tone of his teacher Bishop Matthews, and said: "In front of the glory of the Lord, all evil will be hiding. The Lord's power is everywhere, and he will guide us to find the answer."
Chen Hui's eyes widened. He didn't expect that Xu Changqing, who had always been serious, would even joke. He Ling seemed to think of something and said, "I didn't expect that there were exorcists in the Western Church. I thought it was the nonsense of those foreigners. No wonder Youqing would say that you are a master."
As he said that, while looking at Xu Changqing curiously, he took Chen Hui's hand and led them in. After passing the outer room and a small garden in the middle, several people came to the main hall of the inner room. He Ling asked the two to wait for a while, and then went into the inner courtyard to inform He Zhengsheng.
"Ms. He Ling is a friend Youqing met at the General Chamber of Commerce. Because of his personality, he is closer than ordinary people. Don't misunderstand me." Seeing that there were no one around, Chen Hui hurried forward and explained to Xu Changqing the relationship between him and Miss He.
After entering the house, Xu Changqing looked around thoughtfully. When he heard Chen Hui's words, he smiled calmly, reached out and patted his shoulder, and said, "It's enough to know whether there is any other relationship. There is no need to explain to me that as long as you don't harm the interests of the Chen family and do not affect your responsibilities, it doesn't matter what kind of women you are around you. I believe Chen Weng won't care."
Hearing Xu Changqing say this, Chen Hui gradually felt relieved and his expression returned to his previous calmness. Not long after, He Ling led a short and thin middle-aged man out and introduced his identity to Xu Changqing. Xu Changqing looked at the largest landlord in front of him who had begun to move from middle-aged to old age in surprise. It was hard to imagine that such a simple dressed person who looked like an old farmer in the field would have such a well-known identity, which was really inconsistent with his image.
"He Zhengsheng." Although He Zhengsheng's appearance was ordinary, his eyes were extremely sharp. He could see Xu Changqing's extraordinaryness at a glance. When introducing himself, he took the initiative to follow the Western handshake gift and stretched out his hand.
"Xu Changqing." Xu Changqing also put away the slightly surprised expression on his face, shook the other party's hand, and then said: "Let's go and see the young master of your mansion first!"
When he mentioned his son, He Zhengsheng became tired, sighed, thanked Chen Hui politely, and then led everyone from a secluded corridor to a separate building in the backyard. At this moment, there were already more than a dozen people in the building. In addition to the He family's own relatives and friends, the most attractive thing to Xu Changqing were the two gangs of people who were staring at the two tables. According to Chen Hui's introduction, they were the Tan family and Zeng family, and there were two mages they invited sitting next to the two families.
