Chapter 64: What is Power and Wealth in My Eyes?
During this time, Zhong Shu also knew a lot, so he naturally knew Chu Mengxi's father.
Even, even in the previous life, when Zhong Shi was an ordinary office worker, he was famous!
I've heard of a lot of his deeds, and even great deeds!
"Let's go!"
Zhong Shu groaned and said directly.
Seeing that Zhong Shu was so refreshing, the corner of the leader's mouth twitched, if Chu Pengde's name had been broken earlier, they wouldn't have been like this!
Indeed it is
If they had said this earlier, Zhong Shu might have looked at Chu Mengxi's face and wouldn't have done it.
Huang Gang and Zhong Yuan were still preparing to follow, but Zhong Shu instructed them to guard the store here and not to follow.
Because it's not a big deal, even if the strength of the two summoned characters is not weak, they are still a little worse than Zhong Shu.
If there is really something, Zhong Shu can't stop it, and it is useless for the two of them to summon characters to follow.
Get into the other party's car and quickly head towards the city center.
............
Chu's Dade Group.
This is a building of dozens of floors, located in the center of the city, the most prosperous and shining place.
Here, it is a symbol of economy, a symbol of wealth, and a symbol of status.
To be able to stand here, it is not only about having money, but also about having strong power and status.
Inside the Office of the Governor
A man with a solemn expression, a handsome face, and a solemn temperament.
The other party is about fifty years old, but he still looks energetic and full of glory.
"Chairman, someone is here!"
A withered and emaciated old man next to him, expressionless, walked over and said.
"Hmm!"
Chu Pengde responded, but didn't say anything, and continued to be busy with the things in hand.
He didn't rush to call Zhong Shu in, after all, in his eyes, this was just a junior.
However, the old man continued: "Xiao Liu and the others were all injured. ”
Suddenly, hearing this, Chu Pengde stopped his movements slightly. "He did it?"
"I don't know for the time being, I guess it's!" said the old man.
"How's the injury?" Chu Pengde asked casually.
"The others were slightly injured, and Xiao Liu broke one hand. The old man said, his face still cold when he said this.
Xiao Liu and a few people were naturally sent to invite Zhong Shu to have a few bodyguards.
Although these bodyguards are not internal martial artists, they are also bodyguards invited by Chu Pengde at a great price, and their strength should not be underestimated.
Not to mention anything else, the other three, just one of them stood up, and it was no problem to deal with three or five ordinary people.
Xiao Liu, the leader, is even more extraordinary, once had a record of one against ten, and also beat two people to serious injuries.
If the four of them join forces, will they still be injured?Chu Pengde frowned slightly.
"Let him come in first! As for Xiao Liu, Mo Lao, you can do it!"
"Yes!" the old man nodded, and stepped out.
Not long after he walked out of the office, the door was pushed open again, and it was Zhong Shu who entered.
After coming in, Zhong Shu saw Chu Pengde, who was busy with his head, dealing with some documents.
"Sit down!"
Before Zhong Shu could speak, the other party said without raising his head.
In this regard, Zhong Shu was not polite, seeing that he was busy, he also sat down on the sofa next to him and did not disturb.
Quiescence......
It was as if he could only hear the sound of the other party writing and drawing on a document with a pen.
Chu Pengde was busy, Zhong Shu didn't bother, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing.
Although Chu Pengde is not a martial artist, his superior is full of charm and majestic aura.
If it were an ordinary person, I am afraid that it would be extremely uncomfortable.
However, Zhong Shu didn't care, but looked at the layout of the office.
Immediately afterwards, the door was pushed open again, and the old man just stepped in, looked at Zhong Shu and said, "What to drink?"
"Green tea!" Zhong Shu said directly, he couldn't get used to drinking foreign things.
"Wait a minute!" the old man smiled slightly, looking harmless to humans and animals.
However, when he had finished brewing the tea, he stood aside and did not go out.
"Please!"
Zhong Shu took a look, the tea is not cheap, the quality is excellent, to say the least, it is tens of thousands of yuan a catty.
But in the previous life, what treasures and treasures had not been eaten?
However, Chu Pengde was still busy, not saying a word, only the sound of Zhong Shu drinking tea faintly.
About half an hour had passed, Chu Pengde frowned, and couldn't help but glance at Zhong Shi.
I saw that he was leisurely, without impatience, and without speaking.
Chu Pengde also stopped temporarily, got up slightly, and looked at Zhong Shu.
"What do you think of this tea?"
"Generally, there are too many impurities, and the fragrance is not pure...... Zhong Shu said lightly.
"Hmph!" In this regard, Chu Pengde snorted coldly, turned his back, and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window.
That's when he spent 50,000 yuan a catty, he could buy high-quality tea, even if it wasn't as good as some of the best and best teas, it was not something that ordinary people could enjoy.
Zhong vulgar actually said that it is general, and there are many impurities, and the fragrance is not pure?
In fact, Zhong Shu is telling the truth, and in Zhong Shi's eyes, it is indeed average.
This still takes care of the other party's face, and does not directly say that the garbage is all good.
Zhong Shu didn't care about it, and said directly: "Mr. Chu, inviting me over, it should be more than just drinking tea, right?"
In this regard, Chu Pengde said: "Zhong Customs, from the Zhong family, a family of traditional Chinese medicine in Jinzhong City, and his father Zhong Shangfeng broke away from the Zhong family in his early years and voluntarily went to a small county town to get married and have children. ”
When he said this, he turned his head to look at Zhong Shu, and seeing that his face had not changed in the slightest, he continued.
"And you, Zhong Shu, have been mediocre since you were a child, and you were also abandoned by the Zhong family. Even after graduating from college, there is still no achievement. ”
"But just recently, you opened a small shop that suddenly exploded. Moreover, the people who got acquainted with the Ye family were even more appreciated by Ji Erye. ”
At this point, he paused.
Zhong Shi's eyes condensed slightly: "You investigate me?"
The so-called Zhong family, Zhong Shu naturally knew that he had also been there when he was young, but his grandfather, whose blood was thicker than water, and even his relatives, did not want to see Zhong Shu's family at all.
In his previous life, he didn't help Zhong Vulgar's family, and Zhong Vulgar naturally didn't remember that bullshit Zhong family.
Although the Zhong family is a family of traditional Chinese medicine, in fact, they are not proficient in medicine, including pharmacology.
To put it bluntly, it is a big seller of traditional Chinese medicine, and it can be said that it is also famous in Jinzhong City.
However, Zhong Shu did not have a good impression of the Zhong family, and even had more bad feelings.
In his previous life, his father was seriously ill, and not only did the other party not plan to treat his father, but even the medical expenses for his father's hospitalization were so hard-hearted that he was unwilling to pay a penny in advance.
This kind of family relative, how can Zhong Shu keep it in mind?
When Chu Pengde mentioned the Zhong family, Zhong Shu didn't care, but the investigation was found on his father, which made Zhong Shu very angry.
"Don't worry, you are good friends with Mengxi, how can I not investigate clearly?" Chu Pengde said lightly, dispelling Zhong Shi's concerns.
continued: "I've heard about you and Mengxi, this child is thinking about a man for the first time, as her father, I have to check it, right?"
"Mr. Chu, I think you misunderstood, Mengxi and I are just ordinary friends!" Zhong Shu said.
"Don't be in a hurry to clear up the relationship, though, I don't know what you really mean to Mengxi. However, there is no need to be so raw, I said so much just now, and in general, I am still quite satisfied with you. ”
"So, if you call me Uncle Chu, it's not a loss!" Chu Pengde said this, which was actually a hint.
That is to say, boy, you can soak my daughter, I am not very opposed.
After all, Zhong Customs comes from the Zhong family, even if it is not a good match, the family is qualified.
In addition, Zhong Customs' current achievements are not small, and the income of the old store in Rengu House is not low for a day.
In addition, he also knew that Zhong Shu was highly appreciated by Ye Ji. Even, took over the other party's Yecheng Hotel.
He knows all this.
However, then Chu Pengde's words changed, "However, based on these alone, if you want to marry my daughter, you are still not qualified." ”
Zhong Shu looked indifferent: "Oh, then how can I be qualified?"
"Come here, what do you see from here?" Chu Pengde put his hands behind his back and looked at the scenery outside the window of the building.
Dozens of high-rise buildings, seen from the transparent glass, at this time, the lights are brilliant, and the streets are endless.
Some of the people walking on the side of the road are more like ants, extremely small.
Zhong Shu glanced at it twice and said directly: "Streets, houses, lights, cars, ......"
Before Zhong Shu finished speaking, Chu Pengde shook his head and interrupted: "No, this is the lifeblood of the city's economy, the center of power, and the cornerstone of the vast world. ”
Zhong Shu smiled proudly and did not refute him, these may be the case in the eyes of the other party.
But in the eyes of Zhong Vulgar, he has long since looked at the mountain is not a mountain, and the water is not water. When you reach the realm of seeing mountains as mountains and water as water.
As an immortal emperor, Zhong Customs' vision has returned to its origins, and it is true.
No matter how these things are, ten years from now, a hundred years from now, a thousand years from now, they will be just a handful of loess.
As if seeing Zhong Shi's arrogant look, Chu Pengde continued: "I know that you are full of arrogance, and you may not take what I just said in your eyes. You are young, your achievements are not small, and you have a relationship with the Ye family, it can be said that you have a bright future......"
"However, although you have risen strongly, you are too arrogant, you don't know how to advance or retreat, and you don't know how to forbear, judging the situation. ”
"A young man like you will definitely fall on your heels and hit a wall everywhere in the future. If you are unlucky, you will be even more lost!"
"Don't think I'm saying something ugly, this is my advice to you as an elder, for your good. ”
When he said this, he was also observing Zhong Shi's expression, joy, anger and sorrow.
However, unexpectedly, he didn't see Zhong Vulgar's angry and disgusted expression, and his evaluation of Zhong Vulgar was slightly better.
Zhong Shu looked indifferent: "You said that I don't know how to advance or retreat, let alone judge the situation?"
Chu Pengde smiled and said directly: "I naturally know about you and Hu Bin." I'm not saying that you want to bow your eyebrows to him, but what you're doing is too radical. ”
"The power of the Hu family is extraordinary, even if it is me, I have to give him three points of thin face. ”
"That's you, not me!" Zhong said in a disdainful tone.
Chu Pengde snorted slightly, and the old man next to him also frowned.
Immediately afterwards, Chu Pengde said: "I'm afraid you don't know the strength background of the Hu family, perhaps, you have heard rumors from the outside world that the Hu family and the Ye family are on par." I am also quite polite to Ye Ji. ”
"But that's just a business situation. Ye Ji of the Ye family, if it weren't for his father's sake, in my eyes, he would just be a small snake. ”
"However, if the Ye family really wants to compare with the Hu family, it is a step behind. ”
What he meant by saying this was to warn Zhong Shu not to think that if he relied on the Ye family, he was really invincible and despised everyone.
The Ye family is south of Huai Province, and it may be very prestigious, but it may not be very majestic when it goes out of other provinces.
In the whole of China, it is even more insignificant.
Besides, no matter how good your relationship with the Ye family is, will the Ye family still fight the Hu family for you?
Compared with the Hu family, Hu Bin is the son of the Hu family, the future successor, and his status can be imagined?
If you offend someone, may it be beneficial?
What's more, the other party still controls the power of the business alliance, and has a great right to speak in the business community in Huai Province, does Zhong Shu want to do business in the future?
Seeing that Zhong Shu was silent, he said again: "Besides, there are some things I shouldn't have said, but you yourself know that your relationship with the Zhong family in Jinzhong City is not welcomed. Offended Hu Bin, do you really think he is a soft-hearted person?"
"Tell you, that guy is extremely insidious, and he may not be holding back some bad water. ”
What he said was both a reminder and a hint that the Ye family might not protect you.
Zhong Shu couldn't help but smile, his back was straight, and his tone was proud: "I'm sorry, I think you're afraid you misunderstood." Whether it's the Ye family or the Hu family, whether it's good or bad, I never rely on others, all of this depends on my own strength. ”
Hearing this, Chu Pengde misunderstood the meaning, thought that Zhong Shu was arrogant, and ignored the olive branch he threw out.
He hinted to Zhong Shu that the Ye family might not be able to protect him, however, with the presence of Chu Pengde, it would be different.
But obviously, Zhong Shu didn't appreciate this feeling, and still arrogantly believed that he could solve everything by himself.
Chu Pengde chuckled, with a hint of playfulness: "Okay! Let's not mention these for the time being, you asked me before, how can I be qualified to marry Mengxi? Then I will tell you now, if you are in business, you will at least reach my current status within ten years." ”
"If you join the army, you will be at least the fifth rank of official residence, and if you are in politics, at least at the level of the prefectural hall. ”
At this point, he paused slightly.
"These requirements, if you really have to rely on you alone, not on the Ye family, not on anyone, when will you be able to arrive?"
His last words, in fact, carried a hint of mockery.
If there is really no one to rely on, what can Zhong Shi achieve alone. Not to mention joining the army and politics.
Take business as an example, how is it possible to reach his current position in ten years?
You know, he has a big collective of hundreds of billions!
In an instant, Zhong Shu couldn't help laughing: "What you said is just the product of surrender and vassalization under absolute power." ”
"If I want, I'll have it at my fingertips!"
A great man once said that the "wooden warehouse" comes out of the pole.
Aren't these business, military, or political affairs all things dependent on the power of the state?
If Zhong Shu wants to, it is no problem to lay down the entire earth and even the solar system.
It's just that in the eyes of Zhong Vulgar, he can't look down on these.
What is a small Chinese country?
If it weren't for the fact that the Earth was the home planet where Zhong Shi was born, and in addition, there would be many old people on the Earth.
Otherwise, such a waste star that has entered the era of the end of the law will be given to Zhong Customs, and Zhong Vulgar will not ask for it.
In the world of cultivating immortals.
Often, a Jindan monk can dominate one star on many stars in the universe and is regarded as a god-like existence.
Some planets can only be called immortal cultivation stars if they have produced strong people in the Jindan period.
The Yuanying monk is even more famous, crossing the void, traveling to the stars, and living forever.
However, what about the former Zhong Customs, not only Jindan Yuanying?
