Phew!
In the kitchen, the sound of three people exhaling was heard, and the trio paused, glancing at each other. Lou Qiangqiang and Tang Wanru both turned to look at Ye Yùwǎn.
"Shifu’s wife, please don’t overthink it. If you go to extres, Shifu will go crazy!" Tang Wanru quickly spoke with concern.
Lou Qiangqiang also hurriedly said, "Yeah, sister-in-law, you mustn’t overthink!"
"What is there for to overthink, let’s go, carry the fruit out!" Ye Yùwǎn said with a light laugh, shaking off her hands, not competing with Lou Qiangqiang and the other person to carry the fruit, and turned towards the kitchen door.
At the mont she turned around, a determined look appeared in Ye Yùwǎn’s eyes, and she secretly vowed in her heart.
I must beco stronger, I absolutely cannot let myself get hurt, not for myself, but to prevent Jiang Chen from being controlled by the Heart Demon, I have to beco stronger!
Strong enough that no one can hurt , strong enough to protect Jing Yi and Lin Lin for Jiang Chen!
...
In the attic of Ye Minglong and his wife’s place.
"Chen’er, you’re back?!" Shen Xiaoqin and the other person looked at the entering Jiang Chen with surprise and joy, both standing up.
"Big brother!" Jiang Yuqing watched Jiang Chen with a beaming smile.
Jiang Chen smiled at Jiang Yuqing and then turned to look at Jiang Minglong and his wife: "Dad, Mom, I’m back."
"It’s good you’re back, it’s good you’re back, sit down, don’t stand!" Shen Xiaoqin called out happily.
As everyone sat down, Jiang Chen pulled out his phone and sent a docunt to Gong Lin, Ye Jingyi, and Jiang Yuqing.
"Jing Yi, Lin Lin, Yu Qing, this is a list of all the assets under Ge’er Te, I’ve briefly looked over it, and most of them overlap with the operational scope of Jiuzhou and Longteng, which is perfect. Starting now, we’ll fully suppress the industries under Ge’er Te, but rember, don’t touch the other assets of the Ge’er Family, only target those under Ge’er Te. As soon as Ge’er Te’s assets are transferred to the Ge’er Family, we stop our actions!" Jiang Chen spoke with a stern expression.
"Okay!" Several people nodded.
"Lin Lin, I’ve got soone watching over the Diamond Country mine situation. After the ng Family’s birthday celebration, I’ll personally go to Diamond Country to handle the matter and bring a group of brothers back," Jiang Chen turned to Gong Lin.
Gong Lin nodded, "Okay!"
"Jing Yi, start running ads for hiring at Yichen Security Company, but rember, set the standard at retired special forces soldiers, and secretly the minimum martial realm should be Heavenly Level peak. Of course, if they are retired special forces who aren’t at Heavenly Level, they can be considered too!" Jiang Chen looked at Ye Jingyi again.
"This..."
"Set the standard at Heavenly Level peak?!"
"Isn’t that too high?"
Everyone was montarily surprised, looking at Jiang Chen with astonishnt.
"Not too high!" Jiang Chen smiled slightly, "When I co back from the outside, you’ll understand."
"Right!"
Jiang Chen turned his head towards Jiang Yuqing, "I told Butler Lu that I’m going to Jinhuan Clubhouse tonight to et those families. Yu Qing, get ready. This ti, I want to establish Jiang Family’s authority and let everyone know that in Jincheng, our Jiang Family doesn’t bully others on a whim, but if anyone dares to have thoughts against our family, they’re as good as dead!"
"Okay!" Jiang Yuqing nodded spiritedly, the aning in Jiang Chen’s words was very clear.
Tonight, Jiang Chen is raising his family banner, hoisting the standard of Jincheng’s First Family!
...
Night falls and the nightlife begins.
Jinhuan Clubhouse, one of Jincheng’s top three clubs, becos the liveliest spot as evening approaches.
At this mont, the entire Jinhuan Clubhouse is booked out. Yet the representatives of the prominent families inside the grand third-floor banquet hall have no idea who has reserved the entire venue.
"Who do you think booked the club?"
"It must be Family Head Zhao, Family Head Chen, and Family Head Liu, right?"
"Definitely, since they’re the ones who organized today’s gathering!"
"What do you think the three top-tier families are summoning us here for today?"
In the banquet hall, various family heads from the Jincheng dynasty whisper among themselves.
With the Wang Family’s downfall, the Zhang Family, Sun Family, and ng Family have increasingly aligned with the Jiang Family. This left the Zhao, Chen, and Liu Families in sowhat of an awkward position!
"Hmph! The Jiang Family may be powerful now, but they have beco too arrogant. Today they annihilated the Wu Family. What are they trying to do, dominate the Jincheng business circle?" A cold snort sounded.
Everyone was startled and turned their heads to see who dared to challenge the Jiang Family so openly.
"What? Am I wrong?" Yu Family Head Yu Hanwen scanned the crowd and bellowed, "The Jiang Family’s actions are clearly aid at dominating the Jincheng business circle! They have the audacity to do it, can’t we even speak of it?"
"Yes, the Jiang Family has indeed gone too far lately. We can’t let them continue like this. If things go on this way, I fear we won’t have a foothold anymore!"
"Exactly, we must unite and suppress the Jiang Family’s arrogance. If we continue to fight on our own, we’ll slowly be devoured by the Jiang Family one by one!"
Two voices of agreent rose. Zhang Yuezen and Chen Kaiyang stood up, loudly calling out.
The various family heads looked at each other and fell silent.
The Yu, Zhang, and Chen Families are all first-class families with conflicts with Jiang Chen, which is no secret in the Jincheng circle, especially since the ti when Jiang Chen was still in Dingjing.
The other families had no grudges with the Jiang Family, so they each had their own calculations regarding the words of Yu Jiaming and the others.
"What’s the matter? Are you all still hesitating? Haven’t you seen enough from the recent Eagle’s Nest incident? That was the direct heirs of more than twenty families, all ordered by Jiang Chen himself to have their legs broken. This alone shows he hasn’t taken us seriously at all!" Yu Hanwen shouted again.
So murmurs started among the family heads.
The Eagle’s Nest incident did cause a stir within the entire Jincheng circle. That day, Jiang Chen broke the legs of people from over twenty families in one fell swoop, leaving everyone deeply shaken and wondering if he was starting his reign as Family Head of the Jiang Family with a fierce show of force.
However, as things eventually cald down without further developnts, everyone stopped dwelling on the incident.
Now that Yu Hanwen brought it up again, the family heads whose pride was trampled that day struggled to maintain their composure.
"Are you still sowhat apprehensive?" Zhang Yuezen, eyeing an opportunity, shouted loudly, "I know everyone is wary of the Jiang Family’s connections, especially apprehensive of the owner of this clubhouse, Miss Song Wanqiu."
"But look at today. The three top-tier families have booked the club. Have any of you seen soone booking the entire clubhouse before? This has never happened. The ability of the three top-tier families to reserve the clubhouse shows that Miss Song Wanqiu’s relationship with them is not as simple as we thought. What is there to fear?"
Zhang Yuezen’s frenzied rant lit up the eyes of the people around him.
