Chapter 18: The Secret Discussion of the Servants (Asking for Collection)
At twelve o'clock in the evening, Chen Fan was cultivating with a bronze long box, and Wei Xinya and Wei Hao came to greet him as always.
Wei Xinya fried a plate of fish-flavored shredded pork again, brought it in a thermos food box, and put it on the table.
While Chen Fan tasted, Wei Xinya reported the progress of today's acquisition, and Wei Hao also reported the progress of his underground forces in Yucheng.
It's just that Chen Fan didn't listen to it at all, just carefully tasted this fish-flavored shredded pork.
"What I said yesterday, you've basically changed it. But there are two most critical and basic aspects of cooking, and you haven't mastered it well enough! Chen Fan interrupted Wei Xinya and Wei Hao's report.
"Mr. Chen, please speak!" Wei Xinya hurriedly took out a small notebook.
"First of all, put salt, one more is salty, one less is light; The second is the heat, one more second is old, and one second less is tender! ”
Chen Fan put down his chopsticks and said: "A delicious dish, no matter what the ingredients are and what the recipe is, as long as the salt is moderately salty and the heat is just right, no matter how bad it is, there are three points!" Only by mastering these two points will the dishes be truly delicious! Not only this fish-flavored shredded pork, but also other dishes! However, no one else can teach you these two points, you can only experience them yourself! ”
"Yes! Mr. Chen! I'm going to practice more! Wei Xinya quickly recorded in the small notebook.
After finishing the memory, Wei Xinya suddenly said again: "By the way, Mr. Chen, that Liu Xiaoli who is in Guanhua Trading during the day, do you want her to be the general manager of Guanhua Trading Company?" ”
The Wei family is just Chen Fan's servant, everything in the Wei family is Chen Fan's, Wei Xinya said during the day that he is just a spokesperson, the real boss behind the scenes is Chen Fan!
"No, it's up to her to what she can do." Chen Fan shook his head.
"Mr. Chen, the other two men, do you want me to do them? No trace will be left behind! Wei Hao said eagerly.
The two men Wei Hao was referring to were naturally Zhu Hongwei and Sun Mingming.
When he and Wei Xinya came, Wei Xinya had already told him about the day.
"No, not really."
Chen Fan shook his head, he was immortal, he was not merciful, but he was also not bloodthirsty.
"Okay, Mr. Chen."
Wei Hao was a little apprehensive, the underground forces he was responsible for were not good at making some big moves with quick results, so he was not as fast as Wei Xinya's cooking or acquiring companies, on the contrary, the progress was still a little slow, so he was a little anxious to behave in front of Chen Fan.
"Wei Hao, you don't have to be in a hurry, take your time. In many cases, it's not so much how quickly things are done, but how well they are done. Chen Fan saw that Wei Hao was a little impatient, and comforted him.
Wei Hao nodded, but he didn't think it was important to be fast or slow in his heart.
Wei Xinya and Wei Hao, the two sisters and brothers, compared to each other, Wei Xinya is a little calmer, while Wei Hao is more energetic.
"By the way, Mr. Chen, grandpa seems to have tracked down some new information about the twelve families recently, but he hasn't been able to confirm it yet, once it is confirmed, he will come to report to you immediately!" Wei Xinya said to Chen Fan when she left.
"Hmm."
Chen Fan nodded, reached out and stroked the bronze long box, and closed his eyes.
……
Almost at the same time, a video conference was being held quietly on the Internet.
The people who participated in this video conference, without exception, were all old men with white hair.
If someone from Xia Guo's real high society saw it at this time, they would definitely be shocked and couldn't close their mouths!
Because these old men in the video conference are all the heads of the top super wealthy families in the Xia Kingdom!
The top wealthy Yu family in the northwest, the first He family in the southeast, the Fang family in the northeast, the Ouyang family and the Wu family in the second of the four families in Zhonghai, and the Zhou family, Zheng family, Wang family and Zhang family in the four of the six families in Beijing!
These nine giants, any one of them stomps their feet, and the city, province, or even region where they are located, will tremble!
"The Wei family's recent behavior is very abnormal, which is extremely inconsistent with the low-key strategy pursued by the Wei family in the past fifty years! I wonder if the Wei family has some other plans......"
"Hmph, what kind of storm can Wei Changtian, that timid and fearful guy, withstand? The Wei family is known as the richest man in Yucheng, but he is just a paper tiger! In my opinion, it doesn't matter what the hell he wants, just kill him! ”
"If it's just Wei Changtian, even if he overturns the entire southwest, I don't care! I'm a little worried......"
"What are you worried about? Could it be that you are worried about the one? ”
"The one...... It's been 50 years since there has been no news, are you still alive? ”
"Don't forget, since our ancestors, that one is alive! Fifty years ago, we didn't see his body! ”
"Hmph, what if you're still alive? Fifty years ago we could have killed him once, and fifty years later, we could have killed him a second time! ”
"Okay, don't panic, let's send someone to try the Wei family first and see what the situation is. The northwest is closer to the southwest, so leave this matter to the Yu family to arrange! ”
The old men in the video conference talked a lot, and it was not until the last person made a final decision that they fell silent.
Then, one by one, the screens went black, and the video conference ended.
……
In the morning, maybe it was playing with mud yesterday that made Xu Miaomiao very satisfied, she didn't come to smash Chen Fan's door for the first time, but just shouted at the door, "Brother Chen Fan, next time I will play with you in the mud!" ”。
Although Xu Miaomiao didn't smash the door, Chen Fan had already been smashed out of the biological clock, so he woke up, opened the door, and waved at Xu Miaomiao, "Remember to be obedient in the kindergarten, I will continue to play with you in the mud next time!" ”
Chen Fan was about to go to school after breakfast, when Aunt Qian from the commissary suddenly walked over quickly.
"Xiao Chen! That woman is coming to you again! I also brought a fairy with me! Aunt Qian squeezed her eyes ambiguously at Chen Fan.
"Fairy? Where are there any fairies. Chen Fan smiled, and then looked at Aunt Qian.
Two women were standing not far away, one of them was He Yubing, who had come three or four times and was covered in yellow mud last night, and the other ......
"Well, even if it's really a fairy, it's not mine."
Ye Chen muttered to himself.
The woman who came with He Yubing is indeed worthy of the word 'fairy'!
He Yubing is already a top beauty, but He Yubing stands with this woman, and at a glance, others can immediately tell that He Yubing is just a green leaf, and this woman is a red flower!
In front of this woman, the best beauty He Yubing is as simple as a maid!
He Yubing's face and figure can be called the best, but no matter how best it is, it is still in the world.
And this woman is beyond the concept of a woman in the world!
Whether it's milk-like skin, ivory-like arms, or thrilling chest curvature, smooth waistline, and straight curls. Gluteal ...... All of them are perfection within perfection!
Chen Fan has seen a lot of beauties in his life, such as Diao Chan, Xi Shi, and Xiao Qiao, although not all of them have had intimate relationships, but at least they have all had close contact.
Therefore, through comparison, Chen Fan can confirm that it is indeed not an exaggeration to call the woman brought by He Yubing in front of him a 'fairy'!
Only, what about fairies?
Although the fairy is good, it has to be her own dish!
What's more, if it is really better than her appearance and figure, Xia Mo will not be inferior to her in the slightest if she develops a little more!
The woman who came with He Yubing is naturally Liu Ruoyan!
Liu Ruoyan frowned and looked at the frivolous young man in front of him.
Yes, frivolous!
How can you stare at a woman for the first time and look at it with that kind of scrutinizing attitude?
It's just that Liu Ruoyan is the second lady of the Liu family after all, although she could let He Yubing 'invite' Chen Fan before, but when she came forward in person, there was still etiquette.
"Mr. Chen Fan, hello! My name is Liu Ruoyan, first time we met, please take care of me! ”
Liu Ruoyan said elegantly and politely.
"Hello."
Chen Fan nodded lightly, he didn't have much feeling for this Liu Ruoyan, who looked as beautiful as a fairy.
Sending He Yubing again and again made him a little impatient.
Chen Fan's face was expressionless, he turned around and entered the house, and he didn't mean to beckon Liu Ruoyan and He Yubing to go in.
Liu Ruoyan frowned slightly, because He Yubing was frustrated three times, so she was originally a little curious about Chen Fan, but at this time, it was all impatient and disappointed!
If it weren't for the family's intentions, if it weren't for the order given by her grandmother herself, she would have turned around and left a long time ago!
Liu Ruoyan took a deep breath, cheekily entered uninvited, and walked into Chen Fan's house.
To the eye, it is simple and old.
This kind of old community from decades ago, no, these old houses have no community at all, and the houses in this kind of place can only be described as simple and old.
"My grandmother's name is Su Rubi, she asked me to come to you!"
Liu Ruoyan decided to make a quick decision and complete the order given by her grandmother as soon as possible.
It's just that...... Hearing Liu Ruoyan's words, Chen Fan's body suddenly stiffened.
Then, the lines on the originally indifferent face suddenly softened.
"It turns out that you are Su Rubi's granddaughter."
Chen Fan looked at Liu Ruoyan again, and there were some other meanings in his eyes.
But Liu Ruoyan frowned even tighter, this Chen Fan actually called his grandmother's name!
The name of the elder is you, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, can you call it casually?
It's so rude!
Moreover, why did she suddenly feel that this Chen Fan looked at her gaze like an elder looking at a junior?
The disappointment, even disgust, in Liu Ruoyan's eyebrows gradually became stronger.
"Mr. Chen Fan, grandma asked me to hand you something."
Liu Ruoyan tried his best to control his emotions, took out a waterproof cylinder from behind him, and handed it to Chen Fan.
Su Rubi...... Is there anything you want for me? ”
Chen Fan reached out and took the waterproof cylinder, opened the cylinder at one end, and took out the contents inside.
In the cylinder is a piece of writing.
This is a poem:
"The immortals touch my top, and I will receive immortality in my hair."
This is a poem by Li Bai, and among the more than 900 poems written by Li Bai in his life, this is just an extremely ordinary one.
And after Chen Fan unfolded the painting, he fell into silence, as if the painting instantly brought him to another time and space!
"Say thank you to your grandmother for me."
For a long time, Chen Fan's voice was a little hoarse.
Liu Ruoyan glanced at Chen Fan a little strangely, nodded, and felt a little less bad for Chen Fan in her heart, then took out another cylinder from behind her and handed it to Chen Fan again, "This is also what Grandma asked me to give to you." ”
"Huh?"
Chen Fan took the cylinder and opened it.
There was still one word in it, but the handwriting was obviously different from the previous one.
Or a poem:
"The immortals of the past are now the jade people, and seeing each other in the deep winter is like spring."
Chen Fan's breathing, the moment he saw this character, changed from calm to disordered.
"Original...... This painting is in Su Rubi's hand. ”
After a long time, Chen Fan slowly spoke.
The disgust that had just diminished in Liu Ruoyan's heart increased again.
"Tell your grandmother that I will protect her granddaughter for the rest of her life, but her other thoughts, forget it."
Chen Fan shook his head and sighed.
"What? Protect me for the rest of my life? Liu Ruoyan was stunned, grandma's granddaughter, isn't she the only one?
"Otherwise, why do you think your grandmother has to let you hand over the words to me by hand." Chen Fan said lightly.
Liu Ruoyan was stunned again, grandma did tell her that she must hand over the words to Chen Fan 'with her own hands'!
But she didn't tell Chen Fan about this, even He Yubing, she didn't tell her!
How could this Chen Fan know?
"What do you mean by grandma's other thoughts?" Liu Ruoyan said again.
"Your name is Liu Ruoyan, right? In the lower right corner of this painting, you wrote these two small characters, right? Chen Fan stretched out his hand and pointed to the blank space in the lower right corner of the second painting.
In the lower right corner of the poem 'The immortals of the past are now the jade people, and the meeting in the deep winter is like spring', there are two small words:
"Smoke."
"Yes...... So what? Liu Ruoyan's expression was a little unnatural.
These two words are her name, and they were forced to be written by her grandmother when she gave them to her three months ago.
And her calligraphy is really a bit lame, especially in the contrast of the original words.
"Your grandmother asked you to take this token and come to me for a blind date."
In the next second, Chen Fan's words made Liu Ruoyan's eyes widen regardless of her image.
