"Do you mean to let the current Chen family give up resistance?" Chen Hongming asked with a smile.

Li Xian nodded slightly: "That's right. Only in this way can the Qi family and the Li family fight each other. If Li Qing wins, we'll take the opportunity to pick up the Qi family's advantage and deal with the Li family with a backhand. If the Qi family wins, it's right for us. The top management of the port regulation will never ignore it. In the worst case, we'll take the lead in bringing the Chen family back Support. "

Chen Hongming grinned: "Do you know what kind of awkward position the Chen family is in now? Li Qing desperately wants to kill us, and the Qi family and the Xie family are not idle. Just last month, it was the first loss of all businesses of the Chen family in 50 years. Then, the Ledu club was bombed, and half of the Chen family's wealth was stored in the underground vault. Now it's all gone!"

"At this time, you asked me to give up resistance? You said, should I run to the Li family in person and expose my meat in front of Li Qing?"

Li Xian's heart sank, lowered his voice and said, "if you can't bear it, you'll make a big plan. Now the Chen family is a dead end. This is the only way to work."

"Do you know what I want to say now?" Chen Hongming picked up a goblet that fell off the bottom, went to the cabinet, poured half a glass of red wine and swayed gently.

He lifted his head and drank it. Chen Hongming turned to stare at Li Xian and said coldly, "get out."

"You..."

"Do you think I'll expect a loser to give me advice? Not to mention your advice stinks like dog shit!" Chen Hongming threw his glass to the ground and tilted his mouth, "Because of my pity, you will survive. I raise you and protect you, just like raising a hound. The key moment is to let you out to bite, not to turn your head and bark at me."

"Now, get out!"

Li Xian stumbled back and stared at Chen Hongming in disbelief.

Chen Hongming's face became colder and colder: "didn't you hear me? Should I send you to the Li family now? I believe the Li family will tear you up without hesitation after seeing you."

After biting his teeth, Li Xian turned pale and walked out.

When he opened the door, he hesitated a little and opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything.

"Master Li." the two bodyguards at the door pretended not to hear the conversation in the room and nodded at Li Xian, but the look on their faces seemed not as respectful as before.

Li Xian gently pulled at the corners of his mouth, and then went out in a daze.

"Give up resistance? Are you kidding!" Chen Hongming's eyes coagulated slightly, turned around, kicked open the door and strode out, "go to see the owner."

With a slight meal at his feet, Chen Hongming said again, "let the servant clean the house. Also, don't let Li Xian's cheap dog in without my command in the future. Do you understand?"

"Yes!"

In Chen Hongming's view, the advice given by Li Xian is undoubtedly to let the Chen family destroy themselves. Naturally, the arrogant Chen family will not adopt this seemingly extremely stupid method.

The sky was white with fish bellies. Chen Hongming strode down the marble corridor, his head bowed, his eyebrows locked, and his mind was full of worries.

"It's already here, young or old." his men carefully reminded him.

Chen Hongming's body suddenly stiffened. He looked up vaguely and shook his head mockingly: "I almost passed."

He stepped forward and knocked on the door. Chen Hongming asked in a low voice, "Dad, are you asleep?"

"How can you sleep? Come in." the light in the room lit up, and a hoarse voice came from Chen xueru, the owner of the Chen family.

Chen Hongming hesitated for a moment, turned around and told the two bodyguards, "go away, mark here to death, and don't let anyone in."

"Yes."

Seeing that the two bodyguards should go down, he turned and walked to the corridor to guard. Chen Hongming took a deep breath, pushed open the door and went in.

Chen xueru is about 60 years old. His face is like jujube, his hair is thick, and he has a beard under his jaw. On the contrary, he looks like a fairy.

Bypassing a carved wooden screen, Chen Hongming stopped. Chen xueru, the owner of the Chen family, was wearing a pure white nightgown. He was leaning against the head of the bed and staring at a picture in a daze. The whole room was broad, bright and magnificent, but it was empty and very cold.

Although the Chen family has been humble in business, their family style has always been good. Perhaps they know the truth of greed and want to harm people deeply. The elders of the family are quite strict with the younger generation. On this point, the self-discipline of the descendants of the Chen family is often much better than that of other families who regard themselves as scholarly families.

Of course, there are several scum in it, and Chen Luofeng, the second son of Chen xueru, is one of them. But if we want to investigate it carefully, Chen Luofeng's life is so absurd and his end is so miserable, which has a great relationship with his brother Chen Hongming.

After all, the youngest son has always been more favored. In the Chen family, Chen Luofeng was the only brother who had hoped to compete with Chen Hongming. In order to make his brother fall willingly, Chen Hongming really took a lot of effort. But if Chen Hongming has no feelings for his brother besides competing for power and power, he is not. On the contrary, it may be true that it is flesh and blood, or maybe Chen Hongming has been feeling guilty and takes great care of Chen Luofeng.

But his care finally led to his own brother's death in Changhong bridge. Until today, Chen Hongming dare not tell his father Chen xueru such news.

Chen xueru married only one wife and had two sons, namely Chen Hongming and Chen Luofeng. After losing his wife at the age of 43, Chen xueru's younger generation never married again. Even in the next 20 years, he never touched any woman again. This is an incredible thing for a generation of Chen family owners. You know, as Chen xueru, even in his seventies, there will still be a large number of beautiful women flocking to him.

Just in this matter, you can also see how incredible the self-control of the Chen family owner is. When it comes to Chen xueru's loyalty to his deceased wife, I'm afraid no one will fail to admire him.

"Dad." Chen Hongming shouted, then went to the bed and sat down. His eyes involuntarily looked at the picture in Chen xueru's hand.

It was the family photo taken by Chen xueru during his spring outing with his wife and two sons when he was 42 years old. It was also the last photo taken by the four members of the family.

That year, Chen Hongming was 13 and Chen Luofeng was 10.

After that spring outing, in the summer of the new year, Chen xueru's wife died of illness. When I read that year, I held my son's hand. I thought I was free every day. I didn't expect that it would become eternity in a moment.

"Dad." Chen Hongming called again, "are you thinking about your mother?"

"Ha ha." Chen xueru shook his head, smiled and put the photo down. "It's boring and grinding after thinking about it for so many years. I don't dare to think about it now. I really don't know if I'll see her under the yellow spring in the future. How can I explain about Luo Feng?"

"My Chen family is in Lingang. I can't say anything, and I'm not allowed to be slaughtered. Why can't a good living man be found after so long?"

Seeing that his father's eyes were red, Chen Hongming couldn't help feeling guilty. Intending to reveal the truth, he finally wriggled his lips and said, "I thought my father would work hard for Ledu."

"Oh, what else can I do if the bombs are blown up? I'm ashamed of my ancestors." Chen xueru took a deep breath. "I don't really care if the wealth accumulated over the years is destroyed. After all, money is dead there. Living people are always more important than dead things. I really hope Luo Feng won't come to the same end."

Chen xueru's careless words made Chen Hongming shiver.

"Hongming, what's the matter with you?" Chen xueru turned his head, looked up and down at Chen Hongming and asked, "why is your face so ugly?"

"I... I'm fine." Chen Hongming wiped the cold sweat on his forehead. He has made up his mind that he must not tell the truth of Chen Luofeng's death. Although it was an unintentional mistake, but after all, I bear great responsibility. With Chen xueru's personality, I will never easily spare myself.

Chen xueru didn't know what was in his eldest son's mind. He patted him on the back to comfort him: "Don't worry, I've just arranged for someone to check. Most of the underground vaults are gold and jewelry. Although the explosion is large, it can still be salvaged under the sea of Gangbei bay with more efforts in the future. Even if we have losses, it's not as serious as you think."

"Really?" Chen Hongming's eyes suddenly lit up. This is the only good news he has received recently.

Chen xueru nodded: "this huge wealth, judging from the current financial resources of the Chen family, has not had an impact on the current economic business. In other words, we have just changed a storage method. We can still salvage it at any time as long as we want it in the future. What we really lose is just paper money circulating in the market."

"But..." Chen xueru suddenly turned and frowned. "The impact of Ledu explosion on the Chen family in public opinion is incalculable, which is bound to cause turbulence in the current situation. Go back to several elders of the same family to discuss and find a way to eliminate the impact as soon as possible."

Seeing Chen Hongming nodding, Chen xueru gritted his teeth: "and Li Qing, who has become more and more dishonest recently. Like a crazy wild dog, he doesn't hesitate to bet on the whole Li family to kill us. I'm going to go to the Li family recently and meet Li Qizhi. This situation will continue to be bad for both sides."
