Nine idlers

Chapter 230 VIII The 'Mao' Family Expert

Xu Changqing didn't express his approval or disapproval. He watched Chen Hui for a while, and then slowly said: "You didn't inform the collateral clan about the acquisition of the land this time, but you made your own decision to use Hong Kong's funds privately. ?"

"Yes! It's Youqing's personal idea." Chen Hui's face became a little ugly, and he nodded in recognition without quibbling, and begged: "Mr. Huanwang, save me! If this matter is known to the clan ,inevitable……"

"Okay, I'll help you this time." Xu Changqing interrupted Chen Hui coldly, then looked at Chen Hui seriously and said, "But I hope this kind of thing won't happen again. In addition, this If the business is successful, you'd better go to Shanghai to thank Chen Weng. Don't think that you are doing it in secret and no one will know. I think the reason why Chen Weng told you my whereabouts is because he knows your plight and wants to help you .”

Chen Hui was taken aback for a moment, and after thinking about it, he finally understood, his face was stunned, and his eyes were full of gratitude.

The carriage was driving slowly on the potholed road. No one in the carriage spoke any more. After passing a slum area, the carriage slowly went up the hillside on the east side of Tsim Sha Tsui Wharf, and finally stopped at a common house in the south. in front of the door.At this moment, three or four carriages had already parked on the ground in front of the door, and it seemed that someone had already arrived first.

After the carriage stopped, the servants of the He family stepped forward and opened the door, and bowed to welcome Chen Hui and Xu Changqing down. Seeing their proficiency, it was probably not the first time for Chen Hui to come here.At this moment, a beautiful woman in a long western dress and with a plump figure walked out of the He family's house quickly. When she saw Chen Hui, she immediately showed a look of happiness on her face, and hurriedly greeted her. When he came up, regardless of the eyes of the people around him, he put his arms around Chen Hui's arm and said affectionately: "Youqing, you are finally here! The Tan family and the He family brought two more mages here, they belonged to the previous two Master, it seems very powerful. Fortunately, I held them back and was about to send someone to find you. I didn't expect you to come by such a coincidence. It seems that we still have a good understanding. By the way, the expert you mentioned yesterday has been invited. ?"

The woman talked a lot to herself as soon as she came up, and she didn't care whether others heard her clearly.Chen Hui was obviously used to this woman's carelessness, so he smiled awkwardly at Xu Changqing, and when the woman stopped to breathe, he quickly introduced: "This is Miss He Ling, sister of gentleman He Zhengsheng," and then introduced Xu Changqing Said: "This is Mr. Xu, and also the expert I mentioned yesterday."

Seeing Xu Changqing who looked so young, He Ling couldn't help being stunned for a moment, looked him up and down, and said: "It's really tall, much taller than the average Chinese." He laughed a few times to himself, and then doubted He said: "Looking at Mr. Xu's attire, he should be a scholar of western learning. Is there also how to exorcise evil spirits and catch ghosts in western learning?"

Hearing He Ling speak to Xu Changqing so openly, Chen Hui's face suddenly turned pale. He didn't know what to do, for fear that Xu Changqing would be angry.However, Xu Changqing didn't care about it at all. On the contrary, he admired this straightforward and forthright character, so he also made a rare joke, took out the holy cross of the Western Holy See from his sleeve, and made a sign of the cross on his chest, imitating The tone of his teacher, Bishop Matthews, said: "In the face of the light of the Lord, all evil will be invisible. The power of the Lord is omnipresent, and He will guide us to find the answer."

Chen Hui's eyes widened. He didn't expect Xu Changqing, who is always serious, to be joking. He Ling seemed to think of something and said, "I didn't expect that there were exorcists in the Western Church. I thought it was those foreigners. Nonsense, no wonder Youqing would say you are an expert."

As he spoke, he looked at Xu Changqing curiously, and took Chen Hui's hand to lead them in.After passing the outer room and a small garden in the middle, several people came to the main hall of the inner room. He Ling told them to wait for a while, and then went into the inner courtyard to inform He Zhengsheng.

"Miss He Ling is a good friend Youqing met in the General Chamber of Commerce. Because of the similar personality, she is closer than ordinary people. Don't misunderstand." Seeing that there is no one else around, Chen Hui hurried forward and explained to Xu Changqing that he and He Ling The relationship between Miss Jia.

After Xu Changqing entered the house, he looked around thoughtfully, and when he heard Chen Hui's words, he smiled calmly, reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and said: "If there is any other relationship, just be clear in your heart. There's no need to explain to me, as long as you don't harm the interests of the Chen family and don't affect your responsibilities, it doesn't matter what kind of woman you have around you, I believe Weng Chen won't care."

Hearing what Xu Changqing said, Chen Hui gradually relaxed, and his expression returned to his previous calm.Not long after, He Ling led a short and thin middle-aged man out, and introduced his identity to Xu Changqing.Xu Changqing looked in surprise at the largest landowner in Hong Kong who had begun to age from middle age. It was hard to imagine that such a plainly dressed man who looked like an old farmer in the fields would have such a well-known identity. The image does not match.

"He Zhengsheng." Although He Zhengsheng has an ordinary appearance, his eyes are extremely sharp, and he can see Xu Changqing's extraordinaryness at a glance. When introducing himself, he took the initiative to follow the Western handshake ceremony and stretched out his hand.

"Xu Changqing." Xu Changqing also put away the slight surprise on his face, shook the other party's hand, and said: "Let's go and see the young master of your mansion first!"

As soon as his son was mentioned, He Zhengsheng became exhausted. He sighed, thanked Chen Hui politely, and then led the crowd from a secluded corridor to a separate small building in the backyard. middle.At this moment, there are already more than a dozen people in the building. Besides the He family's own relatives and friends, the two groups of people who are staring at the two tables most attract Xu Changqing's attention.According to Chen Hui's introduction, they knew that they were the Tan family and the Zeng family, and beside the two families were two mages they had invited.

Although the face of the mage invited by the Tan family was strange, his demeanor was slightly gloomy, and there was a hint of yin between his brows.Judging from the magic weapon he wears and hangs on his body, it should be a newly emerging spiritual religion in Nanyang in recent years.
