Chapter 492 Ancient Family—Jiang Family

Zhuque City, the East District, Jiangfu, which is hidden in the bustling city, looks like there is no house on the street. There are only shops facing the street and the yards that are behind, which seem to exist independently of each other.

However, when you pass by the alley next to this street and come to the deep alley, you will find a door that is not very majestic and can even be described as ordinary. On the top of the door, there are two big characters, Jiang Mansion.

The storefront represents a person's face and strength, and this old plaque with dim lacquer even the plaque with big red lacquer is just a reflection of the situation of the owner of this family.

Green Tengluo climbed the high courtyard wall and covered the already hidden gate of the Jiang Mansion. When you walked through this door, you didn’t see the lonely scenery. The tall weeds and the house covered with spider webs were different from the low-key outside the door. When you entered this courtyard, you would be a whole piece of green jade screen.

On the screen, there are four big characters carved, Fugui, Chang'an. Bypassing the door screen and entering the main courtyard, there are ancient orchids, fragrant houses and moon towers, and beautiful maids wearing maid skirts surrounded by groups of three or five, either tidying up flowers and plants, or cleaning up the dust in the courtyard.

Who knows that behind the low-key and hidden door is such a water moon cave with antique sounds!

The Jiang family, perhaps mentioned, few people would know such a family, but more people would ask which one of the Jiang family was. However, the older generation would remember that the Jiang family was the Great City of Zhuque a hundred years ago, the Jiang family was the sky.

As one of the ancient families, the Jiang family also had years of accumulation. From the tacit understanding of the Tang Dynasty and the warlords' separatist forces, the Jiang family occupied a place in the Zhuque City. In the following hundreds of years, the power of the Jiang family almost enveloped the entire Zhuque City, and even the surrounding counties. In Chuzhou, the Jiang family's status was almost equivalent to that of the Nangong family in Yangzhou.

The rebellion a hundred years ago caused the Jiang family to sink from then on, but the Huang family rose to power. The Jiang family had been destroyed, but as an ancient family that once influenced half of Chuzhou, it was not destroyed at all. The Jiang family still had its main vein. But to this day, although the Jiang family hidden in the city was not famous, its control over the Zhuque City has not been weakened at all. It was just a different way and a different face.

"What a deep alley!" In order to be less eye-catching, Leng Zhuo changed his clothes in a teahouse, and then walked into the alley through the back door. The alley was very deep, with moss on the ground and green vines on both sides, making it feel like walking onto the elf-shaped path.

Liu Bowen heard Leng Zhuo's emotion, but said, "Almost alleys are owned by the Jiang family on both sides. This alley is very secretive and can only be entered from the backyard of the teahouse just now. There is a river connected to the other end, but it is still secret. If it weren't for someone's leadership, I really don't know that there is another world here!"

"This Jiang family is not simple!" Before entering the door, Leng Zhuo gave such an evaluation. It seems that the Jiang family will give Leng Zhuo more surprises.

Following the alley, I came to the front of the Jiang Mansion gate and went forward to sting. Soon a doorman came forward and opened the door: "Two distinguished guests, the host is waiting in the tea pavilion, I will lead you over!" The doorman seemed to be serious and Leng Zhuo and the other two, and did not ask, but turned around to lead the way.

After entering the door, Leng Zhuo knew the origin of this unique world. Who could have imagined that there would be such a quiet and unique place on Zhuyu Avenue, second only to Zhuque Street. The flowers, plants and trees in the garden seemed to have been carefully carved and integrated with nature. There was no too much luxury interpretation. But the grass and trees were enough to show the Jiang family's heritage.

The foundation is hard to describe or see, but it can be felt. Without a little time or vicissitudes, no matter how you decorate it or how much gold and silver you spend, you cannot build that kind of atmosphere. Compared with his nouveau riche, the Jiang family is obviously an ancient family.

Jiang Chen, a young man who is no older than Leng Zhuo, but also shoulders the heavy burden of the Jiang family. He suddenly sent someone to the door a few days ago and said he wanted to cooperate with Leng Zhuo. Leng Zhuo didn't know how Jiang Chen knew that he was going to make a big move, but the other party clearly stated the reason and had a grudge against the Huang family.

After passing the flower garden and passing through the corridor, Jiang Chen walked out of the main hall with a smile, clasped his fists and apologized: "Marty Ping'an, please forgive me for not opening the middle door to welcome me!"

Middle Gate, my god, do you have the main gate of Jiang Mansion? Leng Zhuo didn't care about this. Moreover, looking at Jiang Chen's appearance, he did not place the identity of Leng Zhuo as a marquis. If the other party didn't feel good about himself, then he would feel good, at least he didn't feel short and short. Thinking about it, he dared to say directly about the Huang family on the post, how could he be an ordinary person?

"Haha, it's okay if you don't want it. I'm here today to talk about the serious business. Butler Liu has talked to you several times in the past two days, but it seems...!"

Jiang Chen smiled and said, "Please first, green bamboo, plum orchid, I have the old tea I have stored!" A gust of fragrant wind passed by, Leng Zhuo glanced at it, tsk, whether this family is rich or not, look at the storefront first, then look at the appearance of the maid. Don't think that this is a joke, it's all about learning.

The two maids also returned after the seat. This was just that there were a few more tea cups in their hands. Leng Zhuo had no research on tea, but he could also tell whether the tea was good or bad. He saw that there was only one tea leaf in the cup, but when it stretched out, it looked like freshly picked green leaves, and bursts of fragrance came to his nose.

Compared to Leng Zhuo, Liu Bowen can taste it more: "It's indeed a good tea, a faint fragrance, and lingering between his teeth, but it's several layers better than what I drank last time!"

"Haha, this old tea is the best that even if you have money, you may not even be able to drink this old tea of ​​three hundred years!"

"The head of the Jiang family brought out such precious tea to entertain this hou. It seems that he sent great hope, but I really can't think of what aspects can the Jiang family help me to attack the Huang family!"

The Jiang family is rich, which is obviously self-evident. If you meet a cup of tea, you will probably be willing to pay a fortune in this area. However, if the Jiang family just uses money to help, it is not what Leng Zhuo wants. However, Liu Bowen came to the door twice in the past few days, but there was no substantial progress in the door. As the show was about to be Cairo, Jiang Chen invited him, and the other party should not just be for the sake of tea.

Jiang Chen put down the teacup in his hand, and did not attack the fog in the clouds and mountains, but said straight to the point: "Speaking of this, although I had the intention to cooperate with Marquis Ping'an before, I did not intend to invest too much. After all, I have never met each other, and I have not had many friendships. Moreover, I cannot tell how determined Marquis Ping'an is!"

"So what about now?" Leng Zhuo looked at Jiang Chen and asked with a smile.

"Haha, since I invited the Marquis to come to my house in person, I naturally made up my mind. Since Marquis Ping'an wants to have a big game, I, Jiang, will naturally accompany me, but I want to know what Marquis Ping'an's ultimate goal is!"

Leng Zhuo said oh, looking at Jiang Chen's slightly narrowed eyes, as if there was a spell that could see through people's hearts, which made people feel like they were seen through: "The ultimate goal seems to say that this is too far away, and the world is impermanent. Who can predict how far you can go? I can only say that I just want to do my job well at the moment!"

When Jiang Chen heard this, he smiled: "Is it just my job? It seems that Marquis Ping'an is very serious in doing things and is willing to start a war. However, this answer can be regarded as convincing me. No one can tell the truth in the future, but I will not miss this opportunity to defeat the Huang family!"

Leng Zhuo picked up the tea, took a sip, raised his eyes, looked at Jiang Chen and said, "I have no interest in the grudge between the head of the Jiang family and the Huang family. I don't know whether I can ask or know, but if I want to mix it up, it's not just a little money. If I don't have enough weight to place bets, don't blame me for saying sorry!"

When Jiang Chen heard the words, he laughed and said, "Marty Ping'an is really quick to speak. Since I have said this, I won't hide it anymore. Although I can't stand up and wave the flag and shout for Marty Ping'an, there are still some people who can whip the weights!"

"Go and call Housekeeper Mei'er over!"

“Yes, Master!”

Soon, a top-notch woman wearing a black dress, charming and bleeding, walked in with light lotus steps. The woman did not have much change in expression on her face, but compared to the changes of the Ximen family, the unchanging face could see a different expression.

Could this be a return to nature?

"Master, call me!" He was beautiful and his voice was beautiful, as crisp as a lark. Leng Zhuo naturally couldn't help but take a few more glances at beautiful things, especially his perky and round buttocks.

But soon, Leng Zhuo knew that this woman was not a simple vase, but a poisonous scorpion. Her skirt swayed with her twisted waist, causing a slight fluctuation of airflow. Several secret thorns quietly stabbed towards Leng Zhuo's body.

Leng Zhuo almost didn't notice these secret stings, and he was about to approach. The armor woven by the mental power around Leng Zhuo blocked the secret stings. Leng Zhuo was shocked to realize that Leng Zhuo was about to slap the table.

However, before Leng Zhuo got angry, the butler dressed in a black dress spoke and said, "If you dare to stare at me again next time, it will not be that simple!"

When Jiang Chen heard this, he knew something was wrong. He quickly stood up and came to Leng Zhuo and said, "Mr. Marquis, there is nothing wrong with you, Mei'er, this is my distinguished guest, how can you do it randomly!"

"You know I hate your gaze very much, I just taught a little lesson!" The female butler did not give Jiang Chen the head of the family any face and directly retorted.

Jiang Chen smiled bitterly at this and said in a low voice: "Mr. Marquis, I am wrong with this matter. I wonder if Marquis can do this for the sake of your and I'm going to work together to make a big deal. Lord will not remember the villain's fault!"

Leng Zhuo looked at Jiang Chen and suddenly felt something unknown. Otherwise, how could a housekeeper dare to talk back to the head of the family? Moreover, although the head of the family just scolded him, the fool could hear it. There was no harsh words in the words, and then apologized on his behalf, and it would be strange if he had no love.

Women are a common topic among men. Leng Zhuo lowered his head and whispered: "This is not as simple as the butler!"

When Jiang Chen heard the words, he smiled bitterly, without shaking his head, but without nodding!

Leng Zhuo smiled and said, "Understand, understand!"

"What are you two saying?"

Jiang Chen quickly stood up and said, "I didn't say anything. I asked you here. I have something to ask you. Are you ready for what I told you before?" Speaking of the serious matter, Jiang Chen finally regained his previous momentum, but the scene just now made Jiang Chen's momentum much weaker.

"You talk about collecting food?"

"kindness!"
