The rise of the Zakokislav family is a typical piece of legend, its first generation was a legendary figure, starting with a watchmaking workshop and then getting involved in the newspaper industry, with a well-known local newspaper company owned by the Chekokislav family. The number of employees working for the Chekokislav family has grown from three or four to a small group of nearly 100 people. After establishing the leading position in the newspaper industry, Caikokislav began to truly metamorphose, and began to get involved in other industries in all aspects, such as finance, catering, supermarket chains, hypermarkets, manufacturing, mineral mining, and sufficient funds to operate, Caikokislav gradually evolved into a big family and became a member of the Western high society.

The Zakokislav family has a history of nearly 100 years, and the accumulation and sedimentation of the years have made the family more and more prosperous, but in the early morning of autumn, the family seems a little withdrawn, as if it has been excluded by others and has become an old man in the twilight, and the steps under his feet can no longer move.

Xiao Nan appeared at the gate of the manor, looking at the huge villa with a sense of history, and felt a little touched in his heart.

The driver looked at Xiao Nan a little suspiciously, and then saw Xiao Nan walking into this manor with special significance, the big trouble that the Chaikkislav family is now in is really not small, and the local driver who listened to the legendary life of the first generation of Chekokislav shook his head with a sigh, and then the car slowly left the manor.

Xiao Nan felt very strange, it was not the first time he had set foot in this manor, so he knew that the security system of the manor had always been very tight, but now there were no guards at the door, even the servants in the arched pavilion were gone, he remembered that the old man of Chaikokislav liked to let the servants make coffee in the pavilion in the autumn, listening to the "click" of the old grinder, and then he was there to bully the newly beautiful young servant, laughing loudly, However, now all this is just going through Xiao Nan's mind.

"Is anyone there? Old man Czakokislav? Xiao Nan buttoned the doorbell and stood still outside the thick gate. However, it was Joseph who opened the door after half a salary, not so much as he and another middle-aged man with a black briefcase under his arm, arguing and walking out the door.

Joseph was stunned for a moment when he saw Xiao Nan, but nodded briefly at Xiao Nan, he suppressed the anger in his heart and said to the middle-aged man who came out together, "If the bank gives such a mortgage amount, we will never mortgage it, you go back and ask your president or go to see the asset appraisal report, you are simply humiliating the Chakokislav family." ”

The middle-aged man should be from the bank, he didn't seem to listen to Joseph's words, he pulled the briefcase out of his armpit and lifted it in his hand, the middle-aged man looked at his watch, "Mr. Joseph, it seems that you haven't figured out that you are begging us to make an application for a mortgage, not that we are asking you." Ok, I'm in a hurry, Mr. Joseph, you think about it yourself. ”

The middle-aged man seemed to be in a hurry, and after dropping these words, he walked towards the gate, and a black sedan stopped at the door waiting for him. "I'm sorry too, it's been a really busy time."

"Bang." Joseph's clenched fist slammed into the doorframe, and it was obvious that he was angry, and more anxious. It wasn't until the middle-aged banker disappeared at the end of the street that Joseph withdrew his gaze and looked a little sluggish.

"Xiao Nan, you're here." Joseph said to Xiao Nan a little tiredly, he was really tired. The Joseph that Xiao Nan saw was not at all the energetic and energetic Joseph he used to be, and now the Joseph in front of him had bloodshot eyes, his hair was messy, he was wearing a suit that was not even buttoned at the bottom, and the leather shoes on his feet were stained with mud.

"What the hell is going on?"

"Let's go, I'll take you to the head of the house." Faintly, Xiao Nan heard Joseph sigh, and then Joseph walked straight into the rain.

The drizzle did not stop on this autumn day.

Following Joseph, Shonan came to another house of the Chekokislav family. Compared to the manor on xx street, the villa here is obviously more modern, but the area is much smaller than the manor, and the people of the Chekokislav family now live here.

Along the way, some unfamiliar faces showed indifferent expressions to Xiao Nan, and some of them nodded at Xiao Nan a few times as if they had said hello, they were different from the enthusiasm or schadenfreude in the past, even the youngest young men in Chakokislav were rarely naughty now, and the greenness on their faces seemed to fade all at once.

Shonan saw one of the young men, fourteen or fifteen years old, Alice's younger brother, Ben•Czykokislav. He sat on the railing of the hallway, a thick book in his hand, the tip of his shoe wet in the drizzle.

"Are you reading those seqing magazines again?" Xiao Nan leaned over and pointed to the book in his hand, and at a glance he could see that this could not be a magazine at all, but Xiao Nan asked. Ben looked up and exclaimed, "Do you look like a magazine?" Do you have eye problems? Then his voice lowered, as if he was worried about something, and repeated in a low voice, "This is not a magazine. ”

Xiao Nan smiled, he could see the dense fonts on the thick book clearly, of course, it couldn't be a magazine with pictures occupying a large space.

"It's good to read more economical books, so that you don't have to go around looking for your little girlfriend." Xiao Nan subconsciously wanted to touch his brown hair, and immediately put his hand back away, for such a young man with the dignity of a man, such a move would disgust him, Xiao Nan seemed to think of the way this little guy chased himself with a gun before, hehe was interesting.

Ben glanced at Xiao Nan, who was leaving, and the book in his hand suddenly closed heavily, as if he had no scruples, he couldn't help but ask loudly, "Xiao Nan, what are you doing again, are you here to find my sister?" ”

"Bingo, that's right." Xiao Nan turned his head and made a grimace at Ben, and Joseph in front of him coughed lightly. "Alright, read the book." Xiao Nan waved his hand and caught up with Joseph in front.

"Yes." Ben, who jumped off the railing, nodded heavily, and his face had that relaxed look again.
