Republic of China: Guandong Ginseng King

Chapter 148 Settling the Chen Family

Jiang cried and swore to the sky that she had not harmed Tong Lao Da's favorite concubine and young son, and that the matter of the Chen family had nothing to do with her.

On the other side, dozens of miles away from Kuandian City, two carriages, one in front and one behind, were moving on the road.

The carriage in front was driven by Xingjia Xingye.

At the back was a flatbed horse-drawn carriage, with Qu Shaoyang, his disciples, and the four members of the Chen family all on board.

"Shaoyang, why did you insist on asking me to write a letter and put it in the clothes of the fourth child of the Tong family?

What's written in the letter is just our guesses, without any evidence. Can Boss Tong believe it?"

Chen Yunhan sat in the car, looking at Qu Shaoyang who was driving the car, and asked in confusion.

"Brother, that letter was both a trick to confuse the enemy and a delaying tactic.

I don't care whether he believes it or not. Once he reads the letter, he will become suspicious of his wife.

That letter was a thorn in the hearts of the couple. Whenever they had a quarrel in the future, Boss Tong would have to think about the contents of that letter. "Qu Shaoyang laughed when he heard that.

The letter on the fourth son of the Tong family was written by Chen Yunhan at the request of Qu Shaoyang.

There was quite a bit of content in the letter, mainly talking about the death of the favorite concubine of the Tong family. The real reason was that Jiang was intolerant and did something behind the scenes.

Jiang's younger brother fell in love with the daughter of Doctor Chen from the Shi'antang Medical Clinic and sent matchmakers to propose marriage several times.

The daughter of the Chen family was already engaged, so naturally she refused to agree to the Jiang family's proposal.

So the Jiang family held a grudge and hit it off with Jiang's family, designing this accident of premature birth and the death of both mother and child.

These are naturally just speculations by Qu Shaoyang and others, and there is no actual evidence.

But Boss Tong could arrest Doctor Chen and his wife and put them in jail without any evidence, so why should Qu Shaoyang need evidence when doing things?
As long as Boss Tong has doubts in his heart and leaves a thorn in his heart, this letter will not be written in vain.

As for whether it is true, Boss Tong will check it himself.

When Boss Tong gets this letter, he will definitely confront his wife.

This would delay their search for people and give Qu Shaoyang and others more time to escape.

The most amazing thing is that Qu Shaoyang also wrote at the end of the letter that Doctor Chen is an excellent Chinese medicine practitioner and is very good at treating diseases such as stroke and hemiplegia.

It’s a pity that the Tong family has offended Doctor Chen, so they can only leave Mr. Tong’s illness to fate.

"Shaoyang, Shaoyang, you usually look honest, but when you run into trouble, you come up with a lot of bad ideas.

These moves of yours are really mean enough."

Liu Dongshan was sitting on the other side of the carriage. Hearing the conversation between his apprentice and Chen Yunhan, Liu Dongshan was very happy.

"Master, how can that be called a dirty trick?
The world is unfair, the rich take advantage of their power to do whatever they want, and we ordinary people have no place to complain, so why can't I find another way?" Qu Shaoyang also laughed.

“Besides, even though there’s no evidence to support what’s written in the letter, it’s probably 90% true.

"The Jiang family's kid has sent matchmakers to propose marriage several times. Who would believe me if I said he had no hand in this matter?"

After receiving the Chen family's call, Qu Shaoyang learned from Li that after Qu Shaoyang and Chen Xiuyun got engaged, the Jiang family sent several people to Shi'antang to propose marriage and wanted to take Chen Xiuyun in as a concubine.

The Chen family is a clean and honest family, and Chen Xiuyun is a good girl.

Not to mention that she was engaged, even if she wasn't engaged, it would be impossible for her to go and be someone else's concubine.

Therefore, Li rejected the Jiang family's proposal without mercy.

Unexpectedly, the Jiang family refused to give up and sent people to the door one after another. Finally, Li got angry and scolded the people away.

In order to let Chen Xiuyun prepare for her marriage with peace of mind, Doctor Chen and his wife did not tell their daughter about these things, so Chen Xiuyun was not aware of them.

“The only pity this time is that we were unable to deal with the Jiang family.

When I have the chance in the future, I will avenge my uncle and aunt and never let them go. "Qu Shaoyang hated the Jiang family the most, but he couldn't take care of it at the moment. He had to settle the Chen family first and then make plans.

Anyway, the guy from the Jiang family was shot twice by Chen Xiuyun, and I heard that he was seriously injured. Let's put it aside for now and think of a way to wipe out the Jiang and Tong families together.

"Yes, Shao Yang is right. We have been hurt badly by them.

"My eldest brother will not be able to take the imperial examinations in the future, and Shi'an Hall will no longer be able to open. This vengeance will be avenged sooner or later."

Chen Yunzhe, who was sitting in the back and still had injuries on his body, spoke angrily.

Chen Yunhan is a student, and as long as he passes the college examination, he can become a scholar.

With the title of scholar, one can be exempted from taxes and military service, and can meet officials without kneeling.

More importantly, only after passing the examination to become a scholar can one continue to take the examination to become a juren or jinshi.

Basically, as long as you pass the imperial examination, you are qualified to become an official. If you pass the imperial examination, you can be said to have brought honor to your family.

Chen Yunhan’s household registration is in Kuandian. After this incident, he can no longer return to Kuandian. How can he take part in the imperial examination then?
Even if he could go back, the Tong family is so powerful, could they just watch Chen Yunhan take part in the imperial examination?
If they really pass the exam, will it pose a threat to them in the future?

Those people will definitely find ways to cause trouble and make Chen Yunhan fail the exam, and they may even take revenge.

As for Shi'an Tang, needless to say, from now on, let alone in Kuandian, even in other places, as long as the name of Shi'an Tang appears, the Tong family will have to do their utmost to suppress and retaliate.

Therefore, the Shi'antang Clinic cannot be opened.

Fortunately, the Tong family has already received the ransom of 15,000 taels, which can be considered as compensation to the Chen family.

Qu Shaoyang and Liu Dongshan have checked just now and found that there is no problem with the silver and banknotes. They are all in the carriage in front.

The carriage and horses were replaced later. The Tong family's carriage had long been abandoned in the wilderness by Qu Shaoyang.

Even if the Tong family wanted to look for it, there were no clues.

At this moment, they were heading towards Yingkou, and the silver and banknotes on the car needed to be transferred to another person in order to completely avoid any future troubles.

Yingkou is a big place with all kinds of people, so this little thing is easy to handle.

In this way, the group drove the carriage straight to Yingkou.

After arriving at the place, Qu Shaoyang and his colleagues deposited the cash in a bank, and used the silver notes to purchase several shops in Yingkou and two properties, which they entrusted to a pawnshop to help rent out.

Doctor Chen and his family need to stay out of the spotlight for the time being and wait until two years when they are free of things. Then they have to find a way to make a living.

Yingkou is a good place. You can make money no matter what business you do. Let’s buy some real estate and shops first.

Even if you don't do anything, you can still make a lot of money by selling it when the price goes up in a few years.

In addition, Doctor Chen and his wife also bought a lot of daily necessities.

The couple had already discussed it and planned to follow Qu Shaoyang to settle down in Maoer Mountain.

Maoer Mountain is a small place, remote and inconspicuous. No matter how powerful the Tong family is, their minions cannot reach that far.

All of the Chen family's belongings were left in Kuandian, so they had to buy more things now. There was so much money anyway, so they should spend it as needed.

"Dad, I want to buy some guns." Chen Yunzhe found Doctor Chen and discussed with him.

"I can't go back to the escort agency now, so I might as well get two guns and go hunting in the mountains with Shaoyang in autumn and winter.

I have seen through it. No matter how good you are at martial arts, it is not as good as having a gun in your hand. This thing is still more useful."

"Buy a gun? That's fine. In this chaotic world, nothing is as useful as a gun. Then go and discuss it with Shaoyang. He knows about these things."

After these things happened, Doctor Chen's ideas also changed.

The world is unfair. It is no longer possible to live an honest life. You must have some capital to protect yourself.
