Chapter 525: The Three Falcon Gate
It’d be more accurate to say that he was looking for an excuse to stick close to Tong Ming rather than really wanting to be his bodyguard, with the ultimate goal of wheedling some investment out of Tong Ming to get the company up and running again.
Chen Yu’s brows were deeply furrowed, it seemed that Tong Ming really didn’t want to lower himself to deal with this guy, and this fellow truly wasn’t easy to handle, capable of anything if pushed too far.
After a brief moment of thought, Chen Yu stepped forward and grabbed the man’s shoulder, taking out a bank card from his pocket and stuffing it into the man’s hands.
“The truth is, you know best that you’re not cut out for business, you are only suited for being a bodyguard. There’s three hundred thousand yuan on this card, consider it your salary for one year. From now on, you are the security head of this building.”
The man’s eyes widened in surprise; he had only hoped to bluff some money out of Tong Ming by this ruse, but now not only had Chen Yu given him three hundred thousand yuan, but he had also entrusted him with the security of the building.
In this way, he had both money and a job.
“Brother, you get me!”
The man became excited, wanting to lift Chen Yu in his arms, but the moment he touched Chen Yu’s body, he experienced a jolt as if shocked by electricity and quickly stepped back.
“But let me be clear, if the security system of this building shows even the slightest discrepancy, I’ll have no choice but to hand you over to the relevant authorities.”
The man nodded repeatedly and left the office in high spirits with the bank card in hand.
Tong Ming also heaved a sigh of relief; he was fed up with the guy pestering him daily.
“Son-in-law, next month I’ll be hosting a banquet in the Kalaman Islands, when representatives of all major families worldwide will come. Don’t forget to be there!”
Chen Yu roughly figured that right after the grand event of Sacred Mountain ended, he would be able to make it to the Kalaman Islands.
“Don’t worry, I’ll definitely be there! By the way, I’ve arranged a plane downstairs, I’m going to take Tong Ya and Tuan Tuan to Sacred Mountain now.”
Tong Ming patted Chen Yu’s shoulder, “Go ahead, and then head straight to the Kalaman Islands when it’s time!”
Chen Yu nodded and went straight out the door.
The location of Sacred Mountain was near the equator, which made it extremely hot.
As soon as the plane got close to Sacred Mountain, Chen Yu felt a wave of heat and had to take off his jacket.
This place was an important cultural heritage site for Taoism, where every piece of land within hundreds of miles was steeped in cultural artifacts.
Even the houses of the surrounding residents were built in the style of Taoist temples.
“Dad, this place is so beautiful! Those houses are like ancient architecture, it feels like we’ve traveled back in time.”
As soon as they got off the plane, Tuan Tuan started hopping around excitedly, looking around with great curiosity.
Chen Yu affectionately ruffled Tuan Tuan’s little head.
“There are a lot of people here, so don’t run around, okay? You must stay close to mom and dad.”
Tuan Tuan obediently nodded her little head and held both Chen Yu’s and Tong Ya’s hands.
Just then, a menacing-looking middle-aged man appeared not too far away. He glanced at Chen Yu’s family of three and walked directly toward them.
Given the man’s attire, he seemed to be from the Taoist community, but the aura he exuded was starkly different from that of the Taoists. Discover hidden tales at Novgo
Tuan Tuan was startled by the man and quickly hid behind Chen Yu.
Chen Tian also frowned, his eyes filled with wariness.
“I presume you must be Mr. Chen. I am here under my master’s orders to wait for you; we wish to discuss some matters with you!”
