Chapter 536 The price is negotiable

Lin Jinyu's eyes were like stars, and she said with a smile: "Clan Chief Chen has something to say, but it's okay to say it."

"Hehe, that's right. Now my Chen family is holding an important selection competition for the head of the family. If Lin Shizi is interested, can he be my son Chen Junyue's assistant?"

He actually found an assistant for his son in front of the whole clan!

Although it's okay to find a helper, but as the patriarch, you are responsible for the entire clan, even if you can't be absolutely fair, you can't behave too much!

Originally, he had already aroused dissatisfaction among many people by stuffing his son in, but now he did so openly, which made many people whisper.

The originally solemn and majestic occasion became a little chaotic.

At this time, a respectable old man slowly said, "Chen Lun, enough is enough!"

Chen Lun was slightly startled, and then realized that he had gone too far, and hurriedly bowed his head and said, "Yes, Great Elder!"

But after all the words have been spoken, Lin Jinyu couldn't help but answer, she just said: "You can help Mr. Chen Ba, but I don't know any medical skills, so I'm afraid I won't be able to help you."

Chen Lun was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "The assessment of our Chen family is not only about medical skills. If there are other aspects that need the help of Lin Shizi, please don't shirk Lin Shizi. I will definitely thank you afterwards!"

When Lin Jinyu was young, he went to the battlefield and killed all directions. His martial arts strategies, literary and military strategies, have long been known among all countries.

Being able to invite him to help will obviously greatly increase Chen Ba's chances of success in the competition.

Although the family members of the other candidates are envious, they are only envious.

The Mei family has more than one child, but there is only one Lin Jinyu who became famous at a young age.

Coupled with his status as the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty, if he can make friends with him, it will be of great benefit to Chen Ba when he becomes the patriarch.

Although everyone was aware of Chen Lun's small plan, they were helpless.

Who made the family the patriarch!

Lin Jinyu only thought for a while before agreeing, but he explained in advance that he could help and would not make any guarantees.

Chen Lun hurriedly said: "It's only natural, it's the dog's honor that Shizi Lin is willing to help!"

A group of people watched him coldly to recruit helpers for his son, and only when he was finally finished did he announce the content of the next assessment.

Everyone knows about the first item and has experienced it. Although it is cruel, the loss of the five candidates is not too big because of the muddy water in the middle.

Except Chen Er and Chen Ba are a bit miserable...

"The next assessment may be guessed to be medical skills." Chen Lun said in a deep voice, "But I think that in order to become a qualified patriarch, he must be able to lead the whole clan, be able to adapt to various environments, and have strong self-confidence and wisdom."

The crowd nodded.

This is the truth.

No matter how good a person's medical skills are, it doesn't mean he can be a good leader.

"So next, all of you will be exiled to the misty forest for ten days. After ten days, the one who can survive and return first will be the winner!"

Misty Forest!

Everyone was terrified.

"Mist Forest, the name is very romantic... Where is it?" Qingluo asked in a low voice.

Chen Xiangxue's expression was a bit bitter: "Stop joking, that place is terrible. These old bastards are too ruthless, they chose that place intentionally to play us to death!"

Lan Hao said relaxedly: "Is it so scary?"

Chen Xiangxue said coldly: "Hmph, don't cry then!"

"Hey, did I say I'm going?" Lan Hao was puzzled.

"Hehe, don't forget your current identity. As my assistant, you dare not go?"

Lan Hao: "..."

He forgot about changing clothes again!

"Each of you," Chen Lun continued, "each of you can choose four helpers to form a five-person team. The premise is that they can only be helpers, not house slaves and subordinates."

This undoubtedly increases the difficulty of the assessment.

Because the house slave is more sincere, he can risk his life, but the helper he invites is uncertain.

The relationship of interest is often the most reliable and the least reliable.

"Patriarch, I have a problem!"

A young man in his twenties with a loyal face and dressed like a farmer raised his hand.

Chen Lun glanced at him and nodded: "Xiao Wu, what's the problem?"

Qingluo asked Chen Xiangxue: "He is your fifth brother Chen Junrun? He looks very loyal and reliable."

A smile overflowed on Chen Xiangxue's face: "Yes, fifth brother is very good and loves me very much. It's a pity that he is not my real brother, but just a cousin,"

To be fair, the five candidates all come from different families.

"You don't have brothers and sisters with the same father and mother?"

"There is a sister." Chen Xiangxue only said this, and refused to answer.

Qingluo didn't ask any further questions.

Since she won the candidature, her sister must have failed, and there must be a lot of friction in the middle.

At this time, Chen Junrun, the fifth son of Chen, asked, "If there are two teams coming back at the same time, who will win?"

Chen Lun said calmly: "It depends on who brings back more people!"

In other words, in order to win the game, in the foggy forest, they not only have to overcome difficult conditions to survive, but also fight each other!

Too bad!
Lan Hao used an attitude of having nothing to do with himself, and joked: "Aren't they afraid that your entire army will be annihilated? Even the Chen family can't afford to lose so many elite children?"

Chen Xiangxue shook her head: "Maybe there will be certain protective measures? I don't know. In short, everyone should be careful."

You can only choose four people, and they have to be outsiders.

So Chen Xiangxue's group, Qing Luo, Lan Hao, Nan Gong Hua and Liang Sheng were all honored on the list.

"The two of them... are not your helpers?" Qingluo said.

After all, Liang Sheng and Nangong Hua came here to protect their magistrate, not for the affairs of the Chen family.

Chen Xiangxue was a little helpless: "I didn't expect such an arrangement at home. The subordinates I prepared in advance can't use them, so I can only borrow yours. Don't worry, it won't be in vain, I will pay you."

"That's good, but we have to discuss the price carefully."

"Talk while you walk!"

Nangong Hua and Liang Sheng: "..."

For some reason, they felt like they were being sold as goods by unscrupulous bosses.

After driving the five groups into the forest, Chen Lun arranged for people to respond, and then led the group to disperse.

Qingluo watched carefully, and as expected, Lin Jinyu was also selected by Chen Ba as his helper, and went into the forest with him.

The other people who followed Chen Ba were all five big and three rough, Kong Wu is powerful, and their martial arts are not weak at first glance.

Chen Lun was also worried about his son.

The five groups entered the forest through different paths, so Qingluo didn't have time to speak to Lin Jinyu, and even his shadow was lost.

"Don't worry, we will definitely meet you inside." Chen Xiangxue said suddenly.

Qingluo nodded, looked at the foggy forest ahead, and was surprised to find that it was not as scary as she imagined.

There is no miasma, no wild beasts, the sun is shining everywhere, the warmth is harmonious, and the trees are full of fruits. It is like a fairyland.
