Who would still be a social slave when they are so rich?

Chapter 284 Just a shield!

"You have also learned to play guessing games now, right?" Xiao Chen glared at Su Chen unhappily.

Along the way, Xiao Chen was very curious about what Su Chen wanted to see the old man about. After asking him indirectly, he still didn't get the answer he wanted from Su Chen.

Hearing this, a bitter smile flashed across Su Chen's face.

"I'm not making any fuss. It's just that I haven't seen the old man for a long time. I wanted to go see him and ask him some questions. Brother Chen, don't think too much about it."

Hearing this, Xiao Chen couldn't help but roll his eyes at Su Chen. If he didn't know Su Chen, he would have believed 80% of what he said.

But he knew that Su Chen was a lazy guy. The few times he visited the old man before were all because of various things or because the old man asked him to go.

Not once did he take the initiative to visit the old man. How could Su Chen visit the old man so late and say it was okay?

Xiao Chen didn't believe that the sun rose from the west today.

Oh~ I was wrong, it was the moon. After all, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening.

The State Guesthouse was not far from the courtyard where the old man lived, only about one or two kilometers. In less than ten minutes, the Hongqi N701 appeared at the gate of the courtyard.

As soon as they got off the car, two burly men with crew cuts came out of the courtyard. Just as they were about to step forward to ask what was going on, they saw Xiao Chen getting off the car and immediately stopped.

"It's okay, just go and get busy!" Before the two guards could speak, Xiao Chen waved his hand and signaled them to return to their posts.

The two of them didn't say anything after hearing this. They saluted Xiao Chen and turned back to the courtyard. They just glanced at Su Chen who had just got off the car when they turned around.

I was still very curious about who came here so late, especially driving a Hongqi N701.

Whether it was people or cars, they couldn't help but give them some snacks.

Su Chen naturally also saw the two guards and found that they were not the two people he had known before. What was interesting was that the aura of these two people was much stronger than the ones he had seen during the day.

When that gaze looked at him, Su Chen felt as if he was being pointed at by a sharp weapon.

After whispering a few words to Fade Chen, she took out the documents that she had previously placed in the gold-thread luxury bag, tucked them under her armpit, and followed Xiao Chen into the courtyard.

When passing by the two guards, Su Chen nodded politely to them.

Seeing the two men passing through the hanging flower gate in the front yard, one of the guards asked curiously, "Who is this young man? Why is he visiting the old man so late at night?"

The other guard did not respond immediately, but looked outside. When he saw the license plate number on the Red Flag car, a hint of shock flashed in his eyes.

"Don't be so curious. Don't you know that curiosity kills the cat? Just remember that person's appearance and respect him when you see him next time!"

Those who can work night shifts are not fools, and they naturally know what to ask and what not to ask.

The guard who spoke first nodded cautiously, and at the same time recorded Su Chen's image in his mind.

He was just curious just now. After all, he was the first young man who came to visit the old man at night.

Old Master Xiao didn't have the habit of going to bed early at night. He liked to read books and documents in the study. Xiao Chen knew this habit.

So after passing through the front yard and the middle yard, Xiao Chen took Su Chen directly to the study in the backyard.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

Xiao Chen raised his hand and tapped lightly three times, then waited quietly for the old man to speak.

"Come in!"

A deep, magnetic voice with a hint of majesty sounded.

Then the two of them pushed open the door and walked in. When Su Chen saw that besides Mr. Xiao, there was also a middle-aged man with a resolute face sitting in the study, he paused, but quickly came to his senses.

The reason is still the name Xiao Chen used when greeting him.
"Grandpa, Dad!"

When Su Chen heard Xiao Chen calling him "Dad", he remembered that he had known Xiao Chen for so long, but had never seen his father. Even the old man rarely mentioned this matter.

"Old man!"

Su Chen called out to Old Man Xiao with a smile, but hesitated slightly when calling him "Father Xiao". Mainly because this was the first time they met, and he didn't know how to address him.

Old Master Xiao naturally saw this scene and coughed lightly, "Su kid, let me introduce you. This is Xiao Chen's father, Xiao Zhenzhong. You can just call him Uncle Xiao!"

Upon hearing this, Su Chen immediately called out respectfully, "Uncle Xiao!"

Hearing the word "Uncle Xiao", the middle-aged man sitting on the chair nodded casually in response, and his eyes also swept over Su Chen.

The feeling Su Chen felt was several times stronger than the one he had encountered at the door before. Even though Su Chen had experienced many big scenes, he felt inexplicably scared in his heart.

After Su Chen sat down, Old Man Xiao smiled and joked, "Su kid, why did you want to come to this old man's place at night? You're not here to urge the old man, are you?"

As for the urging he mentioned, it was the suggestion Su Chen had made to him before, that part of the income from the rubidium mine be converted into land.

Su Chen sneered and quickly responded, "How could that be possible? I went to the State Guest House with Brother Chen, and I came to see you, old man."

When Mr. Xiao heard this, a meaningful smile flashed across his face. He knew Su Chen very well. How could he not know this kid Su Chen's temper?
If Su Chen could avoid disturbing him, he would never come to his courtyard, let alone come to see him so late at night. It seemed impossible no matter how he thought about it.

"Tsk~ Don't I know this, kid? How could someone who doesn't come to visit an old man like me when he has something to do?"

"Tell me, is there anything important you want to share with me, old man?"

When he said this, there was still some anticipation in Old Man Xiao's eyes, mainly because Su Chen always brought him a lot of surprises every time he found him.

From the chips at the beginning to the lithography machines, the short-lived world-class hacking technology, and then to the controlled nuclear fusion and the rubidium mine some time ago, each time I refresh my understanding of Su Chen.

"Actually, it's not an important matter. It's just that Salman gave me a gift, and I'm a little confused." Su Chen said as he handed the document tucked under his armpit to Mr. Xiao.

At the same time, he also briefly stated his own guess, "I guess Salman is not interested in wine!"

Upon hearing this, Old Master Xiao's expression paused, and he quickly reached out to take the document handed over by Su Chen. Even Xiao Zhenzhong, who had always been as calm as a rock, had a flash of shock on his face.

He was no longer as calm as before and stood up and walked to Mr. Xiao's side.

Seeing the two's attitude, Xiao Chen said with an expression of confusion: "It's just a gift of four square kilometers of land, why are you so nervous? It's not a seaside port."

Before he could finish his words, he saw two pairs of angry eyes looking at him. Xiao Chen, who was about to curl his lips, was so scared that he shuddered and swallowed back the words that were on his lips.

"Within the largest airport being built?"

"Special economic zone? To carry out in-depth cooperation in multiple directions and fields?"

When Mr. Xiao finished reading the relevant matters written on the document, the originally calm expression on his face became serious, and his breathing became several degrees heavier.

After reading it carefully twice, Mr. Xiao asked, "Su kid, tell me what happened in detail. It would be best if you can completely restore the situation at that time!"

Su Chen did not respond immediately after hearing this. Instead, he went over what happened today in his mind and sorted it out before he slowly told the story. Finally, Su Chen thought of the meaningful words Salman said and quickly added: "At that time, he also emphasized that they were in trouble. Wouldn't you lend a hand?"

"Hmm?" Mr. Xiao and Xiao Zhenzhong looked at each other, and both saw surprise in each other's eyes. However, Mr. Xiao was a little worried and asked again: "Are you telling the truth?"

"Of course it's true. Brother Chen was also there. If you don't believe me, ask him!" Su Chen said and turned to look at Xiao Chen who was sitting upright beside him.

Xiao Chen, who was suddenly questioned, saw the inquiring looks from his grandfather and father, and said with a stammer: "It seems...I did say that, but my attention was focused on the agreement at the time, so I didn't listen carefully."

After saying that, Xiao Chen lowered his head. The reason was that he saw the speechless look in his grandfather's eyes.

However, Mr. Xiao did not care too much about it. After getting Xiao Chen's indirect answer, the old man's thoughts were now focused on the agreement.

The more he looked at the smile on Mr. Xiao's face, the more it grew. The study was quiet for about a minute or two before Mr. Xiao's voice rang out, "Su kid, what are you going to do?"

Although Mr. Xiao has a lot of ideas, after all, these four square kilometers of land nominally belong to Su Chen, so he has to follow his opinions no matter what.

Su Chen pondered for a moment, and did not immediately tell his plan. Instead, he asked Mr. Xiao: "Grandpa, will this piece of land play a big role in our development in the Middle East?"

After these words were spoken, the study fell silent again. Both Mr. Xiao and Xiao Zhenzhong fell into deep thought.

The old man was fine. He had already guessed what Su Chen was planning. After all, Su Chen's previous actions had already fully demonstrated his attitude.

But Xiao Zhenzhong on the side frowned slightly, and his eyes became sharp. He thought that Su Chen wanted to ask about the decision from above so as to gain corresponding benefits from it.

"I won't hide it from you. It's not only very useful, it can be said to be crucial. If we have such a place, many previously restricted plans can be implemented in the Middle East and even all Arab countries!"

"It can also satisfy the exchange of various resources and has a huge impact on the country!"

Old Master Xiao also carefully explained to Su Chen the strategic layout of various countries in the Middle East. Of course, he only talked about it briefly and did not go too deep.

But even these few things surprised Su Chen greatly!

After hearing his grandfather reveal some confidential matters, Xiao Zhenzhong initially wanted to stop him, but in the end he didn't say anything.

He knew his father well and knew he would not disclose such confidential information for personal gain. He must have had some plan for telling Su Chen these things.

He had only heard his son and father talk about Su Chen before, and they only mentioned him briefly. He didn't know much about Su Chen, he only knew that he had a good relationship with their Xiao family.

This is all Xiao Zhenzhong knows!

With the attitude of not speaking without authorization when not understanding the situation, Xiao Zhenzhong remained silent. In fact, he had already had a hundred thousand questions in his mind.

I just want to ask what kind of virtue and ability Su Chen has to deserve such favor from the old man.

Su Chen lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head and looked at Old Man Xiao and said, "Old Man, since this piece of land is so important, I might as well just hand it over to you to operate, and it will save me a lot of trouble."

"What?" Xiao Zhenzhong looked at Su Chen in surprise. He never expected Su Chen to say such a thing.

When he looked at the old man, he found that Mr. Xiao was not surprised at all. Instead, he had an expression of "just as I expected".

Now it was Xiao Zhenzhong's turn to be confused, and he became more and more curious about Su Chen.

"Dong dong~dong dong~"

Old Master Xiao did not immediately respond to Su Chen's suggestion. He subconsciously tapped a few fingers of his right hand on the desk.

You don't need to look to know that the old man is lost in thought.

"This matter is not as simple as you think, but it is a good thing after all!" After a long time, Mr. Xiao spoke.

Su Chen nodded thoughtfully. In fact, he had been thinking about this matter before coming here, and he had some guesses in his mind, that is, Salman’s ultimate goal was to cooperate with the people above.

It should be said that it is a strategic cooperation between the two countries.

But for some reason, he cannot do it openly, and can only reach some kind of cooperation through Su Chen and the channels behind him.

Apart from this reason, Su Chen really couldn't think of any other reason to convince himself. He didn't believe that just because he gave an eagle-shaped gold nugget, the prince would be so generous to him.

Four square kilometers of land is valuable no matter where it is located in any city, let alone within the scope of the country's largest and most luxurious airport that is about to be built by Gou Daihu.

How could such a big piece of cake fall on Su Chen's head so easily?
Su Chen is not the son of God, so why does the prince treat him like a family member?
How could such a good thing happen?

"What do you mean?" Su Chen asked tentatively.

Old Master Xiao took a deep look at Su Chen, and guessed in his heart that this boy had sorted things out, and immediately responded: "This matter may still require you to stand in front of the stage, Xiaochen!"

Su Chen agreed without even thinking about it.

"Okay~ I don't mind if I act as a shield, but you guys have to be responsible for the follow-up matters. You won't just throw all those things to me, right?"

"I don't have the energy to take care of so many things. After all, I'm with a wealthy dog ​​owner, and there are some things that I can't do anything about!"

Hearing this, Mr. Xiao also showed a smile on his face, "You little rascal, have you thought about these things from the beginning?"

After a pause, he continued, "You arrange for someone to open a new multinational trading company in Hong Kong or Macau. You know what it's for, and I don't need to tell you much. In addition."

"Take some time to have a good chat with Salman. It would be best if you could implement this matter and see if they have any other needs!"

"If you have any questions or needs, you can call me at any time!"

Hearing this, Su Chen showed an intriguing expression on his face, stretched out his hands and said: "Ahem, old man, look at how big the "white" gloves I can wear with these hands!"

Hearing this, the smile on Mr. Xiao's face froze, and he glared at Su Chen unhappily, "Get out of here, kid!"

The main things had been discussed, and Su Chen felt that there was no need to stay any longer. He took advantage of the old man's words and slipped away.

"Old man, if you want a horse to run, it must eat grass first. You must be prepared with grass to make the horse run faster!"

"It's getting late today, old man, I won't disturb your rest!"

After saying this, he stood up and left quickly without caring about everyone's surprised expressions, without even taking the agreement that he had shown to the old man before.

Seeing Su Chen leave, Old Man Xiao smiled and shook his head, "This kid is getting smarter and smarter now. He really doesn't want to suffer any loss!"

"Huh? Why did you just leave like that?"

Xiao Zhenzhong who was standing by was totally confused. They were having a nice chat, why did he suddenly get up and leave?

Xiao Zhenzhong, who already had a million questions in his mind, asked curiously, "Grandpa, who is this Su Chen?"

"Him~" Old Master Xiao looked at the direction where Su Chen left and spoke slowly.

"What a wonderful man!"
