Don’t panic if you get scammed, give him a Desert Eagle instead.
Chapter 849 has really run into a problem.
This treasure was passed down to his great-grandfather.
Only when his great-grandfather has truly passed away will he choose the most outstanding one from among his next generation or grandchildren.
“I originally planned to go against the family tradition and give this treasure to your father. Although I am not your biological grandfather, your father was exceptionally intelligent from a young age, and I watched him grow up. But unexpectedly, just when he was preparing to lead your family to a better life, a car accident took his life.”
That incident is something Jiang Chuan still doesn't want to mention.
"So, all of our family's titles originated from that time. And that person is not recorded in history; it is said that he might have been an immortal."
Although it sounds a bit far-fetched, there are many different versions of that person in the martial arts world, and he is even mentioned occasionally in some mythological works.
“Those are all old-fashioned, metaphysical ideas. We definitely need to believe in science now, right? So it’s already amazing that you can become such a successor. Your son is a savior because our world really has a problem.”
Clearly, this great-grandfather was very clear about why his entire family continued to survive.
"Alas! I never expected that my daughter would also be given a mission this time."
"Actually, your uncles each had their own missions, but they were unwilling to fulfill them, so they were punished by heaven and remained penniless."
Speaking of his second uncle, Jiang Chuan is feeling a bit down right now.
"Sigh! To be honest, personally, I really should go and have a proper visit to my second uncle's house. But for some reason, every time I go there, all I see are disdainful looks, as if I'm some kind of bastard."
"Because in your branch of the family, your second uncle is the oldest. He just didn't expect that you would become such an entrepreneur, so you are called the successor, while he is nothing. Of course, he is very unhappy about that."
Jiang Chuan then realized what was happening.
"This is an unsolvable knot. If you really want to untie it, you'll have to give him your identity directly. But don't forget, if he gets this identity, our whole world will be doomed."
"Don't worry, I'm not stupid."
So, after settling everything that evening, Jiang Chuan went directly to his second uncle's house. However, this time the situation seemed a little different…
To prevent my second uncle from making a mistake, my great-grandfather unexpectedly came along too. Their intention was simple: to have dinner together at my second uncle's house tonight.
This really stumped Uncle Er. Not only did he not bring anything, but he also brought an even more formidable character, and Uncle Er didn't dare utter a single word.
"Second Uncle, how was the gift I brought you this time? I carefully selected it all in our city. Because I was so tired this time, I went to visit Great-Grandfather first, which is in accordance with our ancestral tradition."
Clearly, this second uncle doesn't dare to say a word more than necessary now.
Clearly, this approach left everyone feeling helpless, but it was actually Jiang Chuan's way of testing his second uncle.
Based on current indications, it's highly likely that the "second uncle" is not the person in question. This is because his behavior and words have changed significantly recently.
Based on everyone's understanding of him, some of the qualities he is showing now are actually different from what everyone previously knew about him.
So if I'm not mistaken, this second uncle is likely someone else entirely.
In fact, Jiang Chuan returned with a mission. He needed to clarify the history of the entire family with everyone and then go directly to the actual ancestral temple the next day.
Because many things are really hard to say these days. And the Xu family has a rule: after anyone truly passes away, there must be a memorial tablet in the Xu family.
This made Uncle Er nervous. "Oh, don't worry, your dad was living a peaceful life here while you were away, and I would go and offer incense for him every now and then."
"That's really nice."
In fact, my second uncle never offered incense.
If it weren't for my great-grandfather bringing a group of people to clean up every now and then, this wouldn't have happened at all. But my second uncle actually took on this responsibility himself.
The helpless great-grandfather could only laugh and cry, as he didn't want any conflicts at home. But sometimes things are just that simple.
"Let's not talk about that now."
Everyone knows that some of these demands might actually make people feel more at ease.
So on the other hand, all we can do is prepare for now and take it one step at a time, and we should be able to solve the problem.
"Ugh!"
Based on the current situation, that's how it is.
At night, they first returned to their ancestral home.
This is Xu Jiajia's second time coming back.
"Ah, this feeling of the countryside is really nice."
However, Jiang Chuan also had some worries. Returning to the ancestral home meant starting many things anew. But a major problem lay in how they would resolve these issues. If they couldn't find a more suitable opportunity immediately, even more tasks would become extremely troublesome.
"We'll go to pay respects to our ancestors tomorrow morning. I'm sure they'll rush over there tonight, around midnight, to make a show of it."
"You mean my second uncle?"
"Correct!"
Jiang Chuan was actually very unhappy.
"To be honest, if it weren't for the bigger picture, I really would have liked to beat this second uncle up. And I always felt there was something wrong with him. Several times, I felt that he wasn't the real person."
"Oh dear, we're the younger generation, after all. What do you think we'll gain if we compete with him?"
That's the most troublesome thing. So instead of doing that, it's better to focus on doing your own job well first. As for what to do about other things, we can deal with that later.
"That makes sense, but I'm still angry."
"Getting angry won't help, will it? Besides, what's our goal in coming back this time? Is it just to get angry with these people? Of course not."
Although Jiang Chuan's goals are very ambitious, sometimes dealing with these people who want to be flies all day long is really annoying.
That very night, my second uncle, feeling guilty for what he had done, could only hurry to this ancestral hall.
What he needed to do now was to quickly and thoroughly clean his brother's memorial tablet from top to bottom. But when he came in, he was shocked: how come this place was spotless? Had someone really been here? (End of Chapter)
