C536 (1/2)
The villa of the Jiang family was very big, similar to the villa number 30 in the Mirror Flower Moon Villa, but it lacked elegance. Despite having such a large courtyard, it was filled with a rich and luxurious sense of wealth.
He walked through the gate into a garden that looked neither very nor very western. Then, he arrived at the inner courtyard. There was a row of white Western-style buildings in the inner courtyard that seemed luxurious and luxurious everywhere.
Tiger Lord brought Lin Zichen to the front of the hall and said, ”Master Lin, please take a seat. I'll ask the chairman to come in.”
Hearing this, Lin Zi Chen asked, ”Is your chairman the head of the Jiang family?”
”No, the head of the family has already let go of the family business and handed it over to the chairman, so he can be considered retired,” Tiger Lord smiled. ”The chairman seems to be having a meeting right now, so I'll go take a look.”
”No, Tiger Lord, I will have to trouble the patriarch to come see me.” Lin Zi Chen said.
Although the head of the family had already given up his position, he held the true power of the family. As for business matters, Lin Zi Chen was not interested, he was only concerned about the Jade Buddha Head, so if the Jiang family was involved in the theft of the Jade Buddha Head, then the chairman might not know about it, but the head of the family must be someone important.
Tiger Lord's pupils twitched before he nodded his head, ”Alright then. Please wait for a moment, I will ask the patriarch to come over.”
After saying that, he walked out. Lin Zi Chen looked at the back of this tiger lord for a long time.
This Tiger Lord... It was a little strange. On the surface, it seemed that his subordinates respected him so much. It should be because of his status as the steward of the Jiang family, but it did not seem to be that simple.
Furthermore, Lin Zi Chen had been to many Wealthy Classes, and almost all of them treated him like a VIP, but the Jiang family … Now that he didn't even serve a cup of tea, it was clear that he had left him here by himself.
However, Lin Zi Chen did not care, after all he did not come to enjoy the VIP treatment, but to ask about the Jade Buddha head!
In another room in the house, an old man in his seventies was sitting in front of a table. He was wearing a red satin home uniform. His white hair was full of vigor. His eyes were bright and full of spirit.
The head of the Jiang Clan, Jiang Shouwen.
Jiang Shouwen slowly put down the book in his hands and asked, ”Sky Prefecture Lord Lin?”
”Yes, Patriarch.” Tiger Lord slightly bowed and said.
”Peng Hu, are you sure?”
”No, but Patriarch, he beat up one of our subordinates, and when I go, no one else will dare to. I think they must have some ability.”
Hearing that, Jiang Shouwen slowly nodded his head, ”I've heard quite a lot about Master Lin. What is that Sky Region's Lu Chenghao? It was just being pressured by Li Tianlong to the point of death, but ever since then, other than a young man called Master Lin, Lu Chenghao has skyrocketed and became the number one person in the world. We, the Jiang family, cannot afford to offend such a person. ”
”Hehe, Master is too nervous, isn't it? No matter how strong Master Lin is... How can he match up to so many people from my Jiang family? And don't forget, if you get anxious, we have guns. ” Peng Hu said as he approached Jiang Shouwen.
Jiang Shouwen turned his head and glared at him, ”Are you crazy!? Do you want to fight Master Lin? Hmph, let's not talk about the rumours outside that are so bizarre. As long as you touch him, you will undoubtedly become enemies with the Sky Region's Lu Chenghao. If you touch his backer, how can he not fight you to the death? Right now, Lu Chenghao is no longer the same Lu Chenghao from before. ”
”But in terms of strength, he's basically a hoodlum. And now that we've already entered the film industry, the chairman can be considered one of the upper echelons of society. There's no need to be afraid of him, is there?” Peng Hu said.
”What do you know? The biggest feature of the people of the Underground World is that their methods are ruthless. If you anger them, why would they care about your business? One word, kill! ”
Hearing this word, Peng Hu couldn't help but take a step back. He nodded his head: ”My lord's education is indeed good, but my lord, I really am not sure if this young man is Elder Lin. He said that he wants to see you, what do you think …”
After a long pause, Jiang Shouwen said, ”See, if it's a fake, there's no harm in seeing it. But if it's true, then I might have neglected the expert if I didn't show up.”
He originally thought that Jiang Shouwen would travel for a lifetime, so he wouldn't believe that Master Lin would come to Lin Jiang. If that were the case, then he could naturally assume that the kid outside was a fake, but he didn't expect the family head to agree so readily.
Jiang Shouwen was surprised as he walked into the hall Lin Zichen was sitting in. He then turned to glare at Peng Hu, who immediately understood the Patriarch's meaning. Lin Zi Chen sat there for a long time, cold and lonely, with no one welcoming him, and not even a cup of tea …
”Master Lin, hur hur, this old man is Jiang Shouwen from the Jiang family. I hope you can excuse me.”
A smile broke out on Jiang Shouwen's face as he took the initiative to reach out his hand.
However, Lin Zichen only smiled and nodded his head. He still sat back in his chair and didn't even stretch out his hand. It was obvious that he didn't want to shake hands with Jiang Shouwen.
Jiang Shouwen was surprised for a moment before standing awkwardly in front of Lin Zichen, which made Peng Hu dumbfounded. Lin Jiang had never dared to treat the family head like this before, but the Jiang family was so powerful that they were able to drive the local development.
”Master Lin, our Patriarch is here. You don't even dare to stand up … Hehe, you seem to have lost your reputation, right? ” Peng Hu said.
Lin Zichen shot a glance at Peng Hu with a hint of disgust in his eyes, ”In the Jiang family, when the family head is speaking, can a servant interrupt?”
”You …” Peng Hu was truly anxious, he thought to himself, little brat, it doesn't matter if you are Elder Lin or not, at least you must have some sort of rule as a child, right? Hmph, if it wasn't for the circumstances, I wouldn't have been able to get you out of the Jiang family!
