Liu Changwen's excited behavior made Liu Jincheng feel very surprised, he had never seen his father like this, in his impression, Liu Changwen was always calm and calm, even when the family was ruined and was forced out of China, he never had a gaffe. Now just hearing a person's name, he was so excited that he made a mistake, and in his words, he seemed to know Dong Guanqing's biological father Xu Changqing, which really surprised and curious him.

"Dad, who is the owner of Yizhuang you are talking about? Is it Mr. Xu, Guanqing's father?" Liu Jin poured a glass of water for his father, and after his expression calmed down a little, he couldn't wait to ask: "Do you know him? Mr. Xu?"

Liu Changwen took the cup, drank the whole glass of water into his stomach in one go, and then let out a long breath, did not answer immediately, sat quietly for a while as if he was calming down, and then said: "Of course you know this Mr. Xu." The reason why our Liu family has today's wealth and status is also because of the guidance of Mr. Xu, who is the great benefactor of our Liu family. ”

"What?" Liu Jincheng couldn't help but be stunned, recalled the past in his mind, and frowned: "Why can't I remember such a great benefactor? ”

"Why didn't I mention that I used to often mention a master from outside the world? This Mr. Xu is the master from outside the world. Liu Changwen glared at his son, immediately retorted, and then took out the pipe that had not been touched for a long time, loaded it with tobacco and lit it. took a hard sip and slowly spit it out, then slowly recalled: "When you were still young, Jin Xue was just ten years old, and you did some businessmen and freight transactions in the Huguang area for your father, and the business was not prosperous.

At that time, although Huaxia was ruled by the Qing court, the real ruler in the south was the Chen family of Chen Jiachong, and all the officials of the Qing court who went to the south did not have the nod of the head of the Chen family, their officials would not be able to last long, and they might even have to worry about their lives. And this Chen family is the predecessor of the current Huaxia Chen family, the European Chen Group, and the American Chen Foundation. ”

Liu Jincheng said to himself in a panic: "Although I have often heard people mention the Chen Consortium, I didn't expect the Chen Consortium to have such great strength, then they are not like Lu Buwei in the Qin Dynasty." To the kingdom of business?"

"Lü Buwei? It's indeed somewhat similar, but the Chen family's roots are much stronger than Lü Buwei's. Liu Changwen also nodded approvingly, and continued: "The Chen family was just a small businessman in the north like our Liu family at the beginning, and the reason why he has such great strength is because there is a line of masters outside the world who have always secretly helped the Chen family, giving them advice, and turning evil into good fortune. No one has a backlog of materials, why would the worldly masters take such good care of the Chen family, but at that time, most of the insiders knew that as long as they got the guidance of the world's masters, it would no longer be a dream to be rich and rival the country and be the best official. It's a pity that the owner of Yizhuang spends most of his time on the Peach Blossom Mountain in Chen Jiachong, ignoring foreign affairs, and only the annual Shangyuan Lantern Festival will go down the mountain to take advantage of the opportunity to participate in the water and land puja to approve the fate of people other than the Chen family. ”

"Isn't that a fortune teller? When Liu Jincheng heard this, his face immediately became gloomy, and the image of Xu Changqing in his heart fell to the bottom suddenly.

"Fortune tellers? Those who walk the alleys and flower owners are clever people are fortune tellers, like the owner of Yizhuang, who breaks the fortune of the country and changes people's lives. Fortunately, it is a national scholar, an earth immortal, and the ancient Zhang Liang and Liu Ji are all such characters. Don't apply what you learn at Western universities to Chinese metaphysics, which has been passed down for thousands of years and cannot be explained by a few simple formulas. Liu Changwen snorted coldly, glared at his son fiercely, followed a few lessons, and after his son apologized again and again, he continued: "I thought that my father's identity and status were impossible to know about the owner of Yizhuang, and I only learned some details from a regular customer inadvertently. As a father, he was also an ambitious person, and he was unwilling to be a small businessman for a lifetime, so he simply rented a house in Chenjiachong, and participated in the water and land festival held by the Chen family in Shangyuan Lantern Festival in Chenjiachong for several years, but unfortunately he never had the opportunity to get the guidance of the owner of Yizhuang. Later, the emperor lived up to his wishes, and his father arrived in Chenjiachong a few days in advance because of the transportation of goods, and happened to meet the owner of Yizhuang coming down from the mountain and taking my carriage into the city. At that time, the father felt that this was the opportunity for the father, so he boldly asked the owner of the Yizhuang for approval, and as a result, the owner of the Yizhuang approved a life for the father, calculated the future of the father, and also told the father of the catastrophe and the way to resolve it. ”

Liu Jincheng said with a sudden expression: "Dad, you suddenly sold all the industries in the south back then. This is the reason for going to the north to start a business!"

"Yes! It is because of the life of the master of Yizhuang for his father that he made this dangerous move for his father. Later, it also proved that the master's approval and father's decision were not wrong. After his father arrived in the north, he immediately met Duan Qirui, who was secretly raising military funds for Yuan Shikai in the north at that time. For his father, he did not hesitate to spend money to make friends with him, and finally got a lot of benefits from Duan Qirui, not only became the standard commander of the Beiyang Army in Shaanxi within a few months, mastered a team of people, but also took advantage of the situation to master most of the business community in Shaanxi. Although it is not as good as the Chen family, it can be regarded as infinitely beautiful. Speaking of this, Liu Changwen's face bloomed with brilliance, and there was a bit of a decisive military aura between his eyebrows, but this look quickly dissipated, he returned to normal, and sighed deeply, and continued: "Although my father was extremely beautiful at that time, the calamity in the master's comments of Yizhuang has always been a thorn in my heart. In order to avoid accidents, the father sent your mother, you and your brother to the United States, so as not to be distracted in case of accidents. I will bring you back when the calamity is over. In the following years, there was no sign of this catastrophe at all, and the Qing court abdicated at this time. The Beiyang Army also controlled the entire north, and because of his relationship with Duan Qirui, his industry can be said to be thriving. At this time, my father was already fascinated by power and wealth, and he almost forgot all the criticisms of the owner of Yizhuang, and then he took your eldest brother and your mother back. The so-called extreme of things must be opposed, and when my power is at its highest, my calamity will also come. ”

At this time, Liu Jincheng's expression became nervous, his body also sat up straight, and said: "Dad, what happened to the family back then? How did my mother die? You have never mentioned these things to me, and you will casually perfunctory when I ask you." Now ......"

Liu Changwen sighed again and said, "Now it's time to sue you." Being a father does not expect you to go back to take revenge, but only that you can remember the mistakes you made for your father and not follow the same old path. ”
