234 I Want the Chen Family to Give Me an Explanation!
With the order, everyone began to congratulate the Old Master.
“The village chief of the Northern Mountain Village, He Qing, has come to congratulate the Old Master. I wish the Old Master good fortune and longevity.”
“The Vice President of the Xiantan Group, Liu Changlai, is here to wish the Old Master a happy birthday.”
“…”
!!
Voices of congratulations sounded. Everyone looked at the scene in front of them and could not help but sigh. Although the Old Master had retired from the position of village chief for a long time, his influence had not decreased.
At the side, the families of the Eldest Grandpa, Second Grandpa, and Third Grandpa saw that many people had come and quickly went up to talk to them.
“Tsk tsk, it’s really not simple. From the looks of it, the Old Master doesn’t have many years left to live. However, his next generation, or even the next few generations, looks like they can already carry the flag. In the future, I’m afraid that the Chen family won’t just be in this town. They might even have a place in the district and the city.” There were also villagers in the village who came. At this moment, they looked at the scene in front of them and some people sighed.
Some people knew about the Old Master in the past. They looked at the Old Master in the lead and snorted at the others. “This old thing was greedy for who knows how much money back then. I heard from my grandmother that back then, there was a famine in the village and countless people starved to death. However, the Chen family was still cooking cows and slaughtering sheep. You have to know that that was not long after this old fellow took office.”
“It’s been so many years. Rumor has it that he’s embezzled the village’s assets. I’m afraid he already has embezzled a hundred million yuan.”
The person beside him sighed. “What’s so strange about that? However, the Chen family has already become a force to be reckoned with. It’s simply impossible for us to fight them.”
“Let’s stick together.” One of them pointed at the Fourth Grandpa and Chen Yun. “Otherwise, we’ll end up like this fourth son of the Chen family. We can only stand at the side and be called poor. We can only be used by the Chen family.”
“Hey, I think I’ve heard rumors before. It seems that the son of the Fourth Brother’s family helped a CEO back then. Later on, the Chen family took over that CEO…”
Just as he said a few words, the people beside him looked at them and asked them to quickly keep quiet. These people also knew the occasion and their identities, so they did not speak again.
One family after another congratulated the Old Master. Then, the families of the Eldest Grandpa, Second Grandpa, and Third Grandpa congratulated him. The Old Master was beaming with joy, as if he had become a few years younger.
Only when Chen Yun and his family paid their respects was the Old Master’s face ashen.
The few families at the side looked at Chen Yun and the others and sneered. Many people at the side looked at Chen Yun’s family and pointed at them. After Chen Yun finished paying his respects, he straightened up and looked around. His eyes were extremely cold and his aura immediately exuded, causing the surrounding people to immediately fall silent. They hurriedly sat down and prepared to eat the banquet.
There were also customers coming incessantly. Chen Xing entertained them happily.
He turned around and looked at Chen Kang. “Fourth Grandpa, are you still saying that connections are useless now?”
Chen Kang looked at this scene and did not say anything for a long time in the face of Chen Xing’s questions.
At the banquet.
The banquet had just started.
“Everyone, thank you for coming to celebrate my birthday today. I’m very grateful, but I’m already 90 years old. How many more years can I live for?” The Old Master stood up and spoke.
In the next moment, voices came from below the stage. They were probably wondering why the Old Master had said this and that the Old Master could still live for a long time.
“Old Master, I’ll definitely go and beg for divine medicine for you. I heard that divine medicine has the effect of rejuvenating your youth. Old Master will definitely live to a hundred years old,” said Chen Xing loudly as he stood up. Immediately, praises sounded from the surroundings.
“I know that it’s not easy to ask for that thing, but please believe me, Old Master. I’ll definitely make a name for myself.” Chen Xing’s bold words made the Old Master smile so widely that he could not close his mouth.
“Okay!”
“Okay!”
“Okay!”
He said “okay” three times, expressing the Old Master’s happiness.
“I’m very glad that you’re considerate.”
“This time, I mainly want everyone to be witnesses. I’ll make a will here to avoid brotherly disputes after my death.” The Old Master gestured. A lawyer walked up and looked at the people in front of him.
“The will is as follows…”
“The ten houses in the east of the village belong to Boss Chen Wen.”
“The houses in the west of the village…”
“The 100 acres of fertile land in the south of the village belongs to the Third Brother, Chen Fei.”
“Here’s the distribution of assets.”
“Thirty percent of the Chen Corporation’s assets belong to Chen Wen…”
…
When the clauses of the will were read one after another, the people at the side could not help but gasp. Their eyes widened, and they could not believe that they had heard it. They all knew that the Chen family was not small and had developed well in the past few years, but they did not expect it to develop to this extent!
They had more than 20 houses!
They had more than a hundred acres of land!
His assets numbered in the hundreds of millions!
Of course, the Old Master’s antiques, calligraphy, and paintings had also been divided up.
The entire Chen family’s assets were probably worth about 400 to 500 million yuan. At this moment, they had been distributed to the families of the eldest son, the second son, and the third son.
Yes, it was distributed to the three families. The fourth son, Chen Kang, did not get any assets.
“F*ck! This is too tragic!”
“It seems that the Old Master doesn’t like the Fourth Brother’s family very much. He actually didn’t leave anything behind.”
“Sigh, they’ve been upright all their lives, but in the end, they’ve been poor all their lives.”
Many people in the village spoke.
Of course, more people looked at Chen Yun’s table with mockery in their eyes. It was 100 million!
Originally, they could have received 100 million yuan or even more, but now, there was nothing.
Meanwhile, the other three families received a lot more!
The Old Master did not treat the Fourth Brother as his son at all, nor did he treat the Fourth Brother’s family as family.
Tsk tsk.
...
Chen Xing looked at Chen Yun and sneered. He thought, “Hmph, are you awesome now?”
“Are you going to be even more arrogant?”
“My family’s assets are now worth hundreds of millions. How much more awesome can you be?!”
The other families looked at Chen Yun and the others in the same way.
For a moment, Fourth Grandpa Chen Kang lowered his head under the pressure.
However, in the next moment, Chen Yun looked in front of him and knocked on the table with his hand. Then, he slowly said, “Isn’t this unfair, Old Master?”
“Back then, in order to rely on CEO Liu from Heavenly Winter Machinery, the Chen family helped him embezzle money and public funds. They were afraid that the matter would be exposed, but they pulled my father up to be the factory manager and the scapegoat.”
“After that, the Chen family rose to prominence with CEO Liu’s help. My father was almost sent to prison. After you used him, did you care?”
“Originally, the older generation didn’t want to mention these things, and I didn’t plan to say it. But today, Old Master, if you want to argue, and if you want to disrespect my family in front of everyone, I might as well argue with you.”
“Do you think there’s such a logic in the world? Will you hide a good bow after all the birds are gone? Will you abandon a person after you’re done using them?” Chen Yun slowly stood up and slammed the table. He pointed at Old Master Chen Bing on the main seat. “Today, I want an explanation from you!”
“I want the Chen family to give me an explanation!”
