Chapter 1052: Weird Castle (Happy Chinese New Year!)
After sending Rose and Narcissus to investigate and injure Steward Wu, Chen Fan instructed his subordinates on some trivial matters, and left Rose the methods and secrets of cultivation for the next three days.
After doing all this, Chen Fan came to the backyard of the Chen family's old house, where no one would disturb him, he closed himself in the room, took out thousands of precious medicinal materials from the ring, took out the furnace ding, and began to refine the pill day and night.
Time passed little by little, and the Chen family had Chen Yongsheng and Su Yue at the helm, and it developed rapidly, although there were many business enemies who smelled it, they still couldn't stop the Chen family from growing step by step.
Especially after in-depth cooperation with the 33 surnames of the Yi clan and the Ma family, the Chen family's business involves all walks of life, shopping malls are like battlefields, and invisible flesh and blood battles are quietly going on.
If the Chen family used to be a family with heritage, then the current Chen family has become a huge family group within half a year, and it is crisscrossing the shopping mall, forming a commercial field and ecological circle chain.
Of course, the business empire built by the Chen family is only in its embryonic form, and it takes time to grow little by little.
Compared with the shocks caused by the Chen family in the business world, Chen Fan, the head of the family, because he never showed up, faded out of the sight of the business circle, thinking that it was a 'trick' for the development of the Chen family, while his father Chen Yongsheng and Su Yue, who made a fortune from the grassroots, have become benchmark figures in the industry.
In the backyard of the Chen family's old house, there will always be different medicinal fragrances emitted at different times of the day every day, and whether it is roses or peonies and other red and blue faces that are closely related to Chen Fan, they are quietly cultivating.
The brothers that Chen Fan brought from Sioux City were busy in the dark night.
Three days later, in the evening, there was a strange fragrance from the backyard of the Chen family, and the closed door suddenly opened, only to see Chen Fan coming out of it, with exhaustion on his face, but in his eyes, a fine light appeared.
In the alchemy house behind him, there were piles of medicinal residues like a hill.
Chen Fan was holding an ordinary medicine bottle in his hand, but what it contained was the beauty pill that had made countless rich women crazy!
There are hundreds of them!
Not only that, in the ring on Chen Fan's hand, the original accumulation of medicinal materials was less than one-fifth, and there were hundreds of bottles of various medicines.
A column of purple fireworks rose into the sky from not far from the Chen family's old mansion and bloomed brilliantly in the dark night.
Chen Fan, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, took a deep breath, and his figure flashed, and he had already come to the side courtyard to the west.
As soon as Chen Fan's figure fell, he saw that the three women of roses, peonies, and green lotus were already standing in a row, all of them were wearing black power suits, and their breath was faint and imperceptible.
Chen Fan's eyes swept over the three girls, nodded slightly, didn't say much, and said lightly: "Follow me." ”
Roses, peonies, and green lotuses were silent, and they followed behind Chen Fan in tacit understanding, and walked out of the side door of the Chen family's old mansion.
An unlicensed black sedan had already been parked outside, Chen Fan walked to the side of the sedan with the three girls, opened the door, and walked in quickly.
Shen Yu was also wearing black clothes and a hat covering his eyes, he sat in the driver's seat, saw everyone get into the car, stepped on the accelerator, and the car quickly disappeared into the neon night.
About an hour later, the black car has driven into a maple leaf-covered road, the neon of the capital is like a dream, but the hustle and bustle has gone away, Chen Fan looked out of the window, by the moonlight, he could vaguely see that there was a circle of grape woodlands outside, and at the end of the road, there was a castle standing in the moonlight.
"Xizi Mountain?"
Rose also noticed the scenery outside the car, and her brow furrowed slightly.
After Chen Fan took a look at the surrounding environment, he couldn't help but praise: "Old Seven, this place is good." ”
Shen Yugan smiled, did not speak, but drove intently, the vehicle changed from a straight road to a small road, and after walking for more than ten minutes, it finally stopped.
Chen Fan stepped out of the car, the first thing that caught his eyes was a five-story old castle occupying thousands of square meters, the architectural style of the castle is peculiar, a little similar to the religious castle of the West, but also retains most of the Oriental architectural style, plus the high wall of the Soviet-style garden built around the castle, everywhere is a little weird.
A gray mist shrouded the castle, a quiet lamp hung alone over the castle's white stone door, and a cold wind blew from the west, and the rusty door made a strange sound.
Eerie, eerie.
It's like a haunted castle in the movie.
Rose's face was normal, while Peony and Green Lotus were holding hands with each other, looking a little nervous and timid.
"Brother Fan. ”
Shen Yu locked the car door, shrunk his head in his neck, and looked at Chen Fan with an apologetic face, "It took us three days to find such a place, and it cost 500 million, if it is suitable, I will ask the brothers to find someone to decorate." ”
"Let's go in and have a look. ”
Chen Fan's expression was as usual, but he estimated the area of this ancient castle in his heart, putting aside the courtyard of nearly 3,000 square meters, the area value of this ancient castle was at least more than 100 million according to the market price, but Shen Yu only spent 500 million, which was a little weird.
"Why don't we come tomorrow?"
Green Lotus muttered, Chen Fan just glanced at her lightly, she could only follow Chen Fan in a sneer, but hugged the peony tightly and never left.
"Old Seven, this is the previously haunted Xizi Castle, right?"
Rose and Chen Fan walked side by side in front, her eyes looking around, and she didn't show fear.
Shen Yu scratched his head in embarrassment again, while Chen Fan showed interest and looked at Rose suspiciously.
Rose said: "This was originally a religious place built by Westerners in the late Qing Dynasty, relying on Xizi Mountain, but I heard that this place is often haunted, and several popes and priests have died one after another, so that this area is very bleak, and even real estate developers who have always loved to speculate on land are unwilling to gnaw this place." ”
Chen Fan walked into the old gate and walked half a circle on the moss-covered floor, and indeed felt that the temperature near the castle was much lower than in other places, but he didn't believe it at all.
Chen Fan thought back to the way he came, and couldn't help asking, "Does the vineyard near this castle also belong to the original owner of this castle?"
Shen Yu nodded and said, "Well, but the other party is only willing to sell this castle, and the twenty acres of grape land near here will not be sold by the owner." ”
"Aren't you willing to pay a high price?"
Chen Fan hoped that the Xuanji Pavilion he was about to build was under his control.
"Brother Fan, that's right, the owner of this castle is called Canglu, his father is the last pope, his grandfather and father both died in the castle, and his daughter, because she lived in the castle for a while, got a strange disease, which is difficult to cure, so he sold the castle to me at a low price, but this piece of vineyard, he intends to leave to his sick daughter, no matter how high the price, will not sell. ”
Chen Fan nodded thoughtfully, and suddenly, he thought of something, and said suspiciously: "Could it be that this Canglu is also infected with a strange disease?"
"I don't know about this, but Brother Fan, this place is indeed a bit weird, I always feel very uncomfortable, it's really not good, I'll find another place." Shen Yu followed Chen Fan's side, his short body curled up, looking timid.
