Waiting for me here?

Chen An felt that his IQ had been insulted, and at the same time he was angry and funny, and he didn't know what Chu Ran's expression would be if he knew that Luo Zhan had already practiced Shengang and was a level stronger than him.

But he doesn't care about this, now he doesn't have too many ideas about how to start developing his power after he goes back, but there is one purpose that remains the same, that is, to develop secretly, after all, he just wants to reserve the fire, not who he wants to compete with for hegemony.

Even if Luo Zhan has already cultivated Shengang, in addition to helping him fight for the right to speak in the family, it will not help him too much, so it is not impossible to stay in the capital to help Chu Ran expand the power of the Chu family.

After all, if the Chu family is strong, they can be in front, and the forces he will arrange when he goes back can exist for a longer time, which is very in line with his purpose of reserving the fire.

And Luo Zhan opened up territory for the Chu family in front, and it was also an echo of his actions when he returned to the family, and the benefits seemed to be stronger than simply bringing Luo Zhan home.

But why do you want me to offer my only subordinate with a word?

Chen An has always been the master of not seeing rabbits and not scattering eagles, even if the situation is obviously beneficial to him, he has to fight for the greatest benefits, so he nodded first and said: "Indeed, it is better to let Luo Zhan contribute to the family than to follow Yan'er." Uncle Seventeen naturally spoke, and of course Yan'er couldn't refuse. ”

"Just ......"

Seeing Chu Ran's satisfied smile, Chen An suddenly changed the topic and said: "It's just that my niece is deeply inspired by Uncle Seventeen's loyalty and filial piety to the family, and she also wants to make some contributions to the family, I don't know what I can do with this meager strength, and I ask Uncle Seventeen for advice." ”

The smile on Chu Ran's face froze, and he glanced at Chen An deeply, as if he wanted to get to know him again.

Is this blackmailing himself? If he doesn't give him something to do, he will find something to do, and even drag Luo Zhan to do it himself?

Chu Ran's city was very deep, but after a pause, the smile on his face gradually melted, and he said in a slightly relieved tone: "Yan'er has this heart, but it is very good, so let's do it, I will write a letter to your thirteenth uncle, and inform him that you are getting older, and it is time to participate in some affairs, and let you replace me and listen to the clan discussion." ”

Instead of you?

Chen Anxin sneered, secretly mocking Chu Ran's precise wording, but he also knew that he couldn't ask for more, otherwise it would be bad if he forced this smiling tiger to jump to his feet, so he nodded and said, "Thank you Uncle Seventeen for your attention." ”

"Hehe, you have to fight for yourself, remember that you are the heir of the family, don't insult everyone's expectations of you. ”

Chu Ran's words were far away, which made Chen An muttered in his heart, it seemed that he really fell out with Chu Xun, and also, Chu Xun was talented and his ability was also outstanding, and he never kept at the mercy of Chu Ran.

At the beginning, it was just for the position of the head of the family to unite Chu Ran against Chu Yan, but now Chu Yan doesn't know what is going on, he has no intention of clan affairs, and there is a tendency to gradually move away from the core, and the contradictions and conflicts between Chu Ran and Chu Xun naturally broke out very easily.

There is a good drama to watch, Chen Anxin disdainful, but he sincerely responded: "I must keep in mind the teachings of Uncle Seventeen." ”

So far, the two of them have been talking happily, Chen An wants to prepare for going home, and say goodbye, Chu Ran looks like he loves his juniors, and sends him straight to the door.

Until he returned to his bedroom, Chen An was still reminiscing about the various information leaks in the previous conversation.

It seems that Chu Ran is going to make a big move, otherwise he won't need the two Tongxuan to deter, maybe he wants to directly become among the magnates in the capital, and then climb to the top step by step, I have to say, this is really thoughtful.

In the Chu family, because of Chu Yan's suppression and Chu Xun's hind legs, it was impossible for him Chu Ran to come out. But if it is in the capital, it is different, this is a completely undeveloped area for the Chu family.

As long as he can persuade the clan to discuss the proposal to enter Gyeonggi and make preliminary investment first, Chu Ran will have a way to leverage the resources of the entire Chu family for his use, so that the core of the Chu family will be displaced to the capital.

The operation is also very simple, leveraging the whole group with one project, and the most difficult thing is the preliminary proposal.

But the most difficult part has actually been solved by Chu Han, who has long been gone, and his original plan to take the initiative to get close to Jipinghou has been achieved, and Chu Xun has become Jipinghou's little son-in-law, which can be regarded as the first step for the entire Chu family to enter Gyeonggi.

Basically, no one will repeat this matter, because this repetition is against Chu Han's resolution at the beginning.

Although Chu Han died, the tiger died majesticly, in his heyday, he almost monopolized the right to speak in the entire Chu family, in such a short period of time, no one can forget it at all, not to mention that his actual successor Chu Yan still holds more than half of the power of the Chu family. In the face of this force, who dares to oppose it, and who can oppose it?

After that, things are easy to do, just need a pusher, and it can be like inertia, so that it will come naturally.

When the Chu family invests enough, it will be impossible to get out easily, and no one can easily give up the sunk cost. At that time, even if Chu Yan wanted to stop it, he couldn't.

The Chu family in the capital will gradually rise, and the Chu family in Jingmen City will be reduced to vassals, and Chu Ran, who is in charge of this matter, will be able to become the first person to talk about it, not the head of the family, but the head of the family.

Of course, he still has to prevent Chu Xun from picking peaches, after all, Chu Xun's identity and seniority have many advantages over him.

The other thing is whether this thing can be done, this thing is done, Chu Ran can absorb the greatest benefits, if it fails, it is just dragging the entire Chu family to decay together.

Seeing that only Chu Ran arrived in Beijing alone, Chu Xun avoided it, Gong Hui's whereabouts became a mystery, Ouyang Dewang was still lying on the seat of Jingmen Taishou and did not move at all, and it could be expected that the Chu family's support in the early stage was not large.

It is obviously unrealistic for Chu Ran to pry the strength of the entire Chu family alone, perhaps he is bent on tying Luo Zhan to his chariot because of this.

In the end, it is a Tongxuan, and it is a Tongxuan born in a family, how can it attract Chu Yan's attention, so as not to give up, and tie up Luo Zhan, by the way, you can also bring a Chu Yan, bring Chu Yan and lead to Gonghui, these are completely enough as sunk costs to attract the Chu family's follow-up investment.

In this regard, Chen An sighed, and I have to say that Chu Ran's calculation is really quite good.

I was caught off guard and drilled a loophole than the other party, and I thought that not long after the flower meeting, this guy should be in the marriage matter, but I didn't expect that he had completely escaped the constraints of the powerful in Beijing, and looked at the entire Lingzhong level.

Knowing this, maybe he could open his mouth to ask for more benefits, in order to control the family's ideals, I believe that Chu Ran will definitely not be stingy with anything.

This gave Chu Ran a big advantage, you must know that Luo Zhan is no longer an ordinary Xuan, but has already practiced Shengang.

Shengang and Tongxuan don't look at each other as one step, but their status is far away.

A Tongxuan can attract some investment for Chu Ran at most, and a Shengang is an absolutely deterrent force. Even in the big pond of Gyeonggi, only some top families can have one or two such statues.

There is no need to guess, Chen An, who has the exact information of Gong Hui, really knows that the eight or nine stars in the entire Great Song Dynasty are only five fingers, and most of them are among the three major sects.

Among the families, including the top families, the one who acts as a deterrent is Shengang, and they never take action, but only as a deterrent to maintain the harmony of the entire Gyeonggi ecosystem.

In other words, Luo Zhan, who has the strength of Shengang, basically stands at the top of the martial arts circle in the capital. And with Luo Zhan's help, Chu Ran has actually completed the goal of gaining a firm foothold in the capital, and he only needs to climb comfortably to the top family in the next process.

Don't think too much about it, everyone has their own luck, everyone has their own fate, Chen An began to pack up and prepare for his journey home.

To tell the truth, it is true that his heart is like an arrow, but it is not for the Chu family, but he wants to return to Donglai as soon as possible, and this time he will leave after successfully planting some fire.

After that, Chen An called Luo Zhan and assigned him a task, although Luo Zhan was very reluctant to leave his young lady, he did not dare to disobey Chen An's order.

After that, Chen An took another trip to the New Day Carriage and Horse Travel, met Bada and left a Blood Essence Pill for this guy. It's not like Luo Zhan, this guy can't be trusted by Chen An if he is a monk halfway, and a blood essence pill is the limit. And he is the number one leader in the green forest in the mountains, and he will not lack "supplemental food", thinking that even without the help of the Blood Essence Pill, he can quickly practice Shengang to break through the five-star level and reach the six-star level.

Of course, the licking dog still reacted as it should when he saw the owner feeding, and a good meal was presented, and the words of gratitude to Dade were like not asking for money, and they were sprinkled wildly. Chen An's will was a little dizzy, and he only felt that this fat man was pleasing to the eye.

There was no word for the night, and soon the second day came.

After breakfast, Chu Ran personally sent Chen An to the carriage, and only after witnessing his departure did he breathe a sigh of emotion, he looked at Luo Zhan beside him in a good mood, turned a blind eye to the other party's somewhat depressed mood, and said directly: "Luo Zhan, I have worked hard for you, but this is also for your sake, although you have alienated the root and developed the bloodline, but you have always been a foreign surname, this time first follow me in Beijing to make meritorious contributions, and when the time is ripe, I will find a career for you." ”

On the other side, Chen An took the carriage and did not fly back to the family directly, which was really appalling and did not conform to his original intention of keeping a low profile, so although it was a waste of time, it had to be so.

He can also use the time in the car to understand the mystery of the Nine Stars Pole and enrich his knowledge reserves.

At his urging, the trip did not stop until late evening at a country inn.

The two guards assigned to him by Chu Ran went in to fight the front station first, and the coachman and the other two guards guarded Chen An and waited outside, but they waited for most of the hour.

"What's going on? Why haven't they come out yet?"
