At the door, Zhou Fu stopped, turned around and said, "Last time, our alchemist was killed, and the trade route was almost cut off.
Also, the Jin family, their alchemist was kidnapped, and what is their situation now? I don't think I need to say these things, you should be very clear about them. "
Chen Guhong's heart tightened. He knew that Zhou Fu was talking about him. He quickly said, "This subordinate understands Sir's painstaking efforts. In a while, I will arrange for the family to find a few clever children to learn alchemy."
"It's good that you understand!"
Zhou Fu nodded. "It's a different matter to have the core in your own hands and to have it in the hands of others.
If we lose the alchemist, we can find another one, but if we lose the knowledge, then it's really gone. "
"This subordinate will keep it in mind!" Chen Guhong hurriedly said.
"It's good that you remember. Also, don't tell outsiders about my visit."
"Yes!"
Following Chen Guhong, Zhou Fu arrived at the back door of the Chen family.
"Sir, take care."
Zhou Fu nodded, went out the back door, and blended into the crowd.
Looking at the closed back door, Chen Guhong stood there in a daze for a long time. Then, he turned around and walked into the depths of the Chen family.
Although Chen Guhong was now in charge of the Chen family, in order to prevent him from doing anything rash, two elders from the other branches were chosen to disperse Chen Guhong's power.
However, they were not against everything. After all, the people of the main branch of the Chen family died in front of these people, and they were even the ones who killed them. Every time he thought about it late at night, there seemed to be a trace of warmth left on his hands.
If Zhou Fu's matter was delayed because of opposition, the Chen family might have to change blood again.
Chen Guhong came to the meeting hall and asked people to inform the elders and the stewards of each branch to come for a meeting.
Not long after, the large meeting hall was filled. More than twenty people sat there quietly. No one spoke, but an inexplicable heavy pressure was emitted.
Chen Guhong took a deep breath and slowly swept his eyes over everyone's heads to relieve the pressure in his heart.
"Ladies and gentlemen," Chen Guhong slowly opened his mouth and looked at the crowd. "By Mr. Zhou's order, today, we are to find the quickest members of the Chen family from each branch and branch to learn alchemy!"
Although the people sitting in the hall were surprised, no one said anything.
"Gu Hong," the grand elder of the Chen family said, "we will obey your orders, sir. I wonder if Mr. Zhou has any other instructions, in case our subordinates fail to live up to your expectations."
"Yes." Chen Guhong nodded. He looked around and motioned for all the servants to leave.
Only then did he open his mouth to speak. He repeated Zhou Fu's original words bit by bit, along with the deeper meaning behind them.
It was a long time after Chen Guhong finished speaking that the people in the hall came back to their senses.
The grand elder slowly said, "If that's the case, we will do as Mr. Zhou says. This kind of thing will only benefit the Chen family."
After he finished speaking, he turned to Chen Guhong and said, "Gu Hong, it's best to let the Huang Jia know about this. After all, the Chen family and Huang Jia are both working for you, so we can't take all the benefits for ourselves."
"Yes, Gu Hong understands."
At this time, the second elder said, "Also, about the business route and the medicine field, we must also take Huang Jia into account.
Let Huang Jia provide the manpower and share the benefits! "
He paused, then continued, "This isn't about taking all the benefits for ourselves, but Huang Jia's restaurant business will also be taken into account. As the saying goes, give me a peach and I'll give you a plum in return. This is the Chen family's return gift."
The grand elder nodded with a smile and said, "Gu Hong, let's do this as well."
Chen Guhong thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Gu Hong understands. I will visit Huang Jia later."
At this point, Chen Guhong took a deep breath, then looked at the grand elder and asked, "Grand elder, I wonder if there are any smart young people in the Chen family?
Just like … "At this time, Huang Feng's shameless face appeared in his mind.
"Just like … just like Huang Jia's Huang Feng." Although he didn't want to say it, he still said it.
"Hahahaha …"
The grand elder laughed, then said, "I will keep an eye on this. Gu Hong, please work hard for a few more days."
"Ah, that's all I can do."
Knock, knock, knock!
There was a knock on the door, and everyone turned to look.
"Come in!"
The door opened, and the Chen family's housekeeper quickly walked into the hall and said, "The servant reports that Mr. Zhou wants the family head to the Zhou mansion."
"Understood."
"This subordinate will take his leave."
From the moment he came in to the moment he left, the housekeeper kept his head down.
Chen Guhong stood up and said, "If that's the case, I will leave first. As for the rest of the matters, I will have to trouble the two elders."
The grand elder said, "Gu Hong, please go. After we discuss it, we will report it to you."
"Thank you, grand elder."
…
Zhou mansion, main hall.
Looking at Jin Peng, Huang Feng, and Chen Guhong who rushed over, Zhou Fu said, "According to the thieves who attacked the construction site last night, they are from the Red Sea gang.
I have already reported this to the headquarters, and the headquarters wants us to counterattack. We must destroy one of the Red Sea gang's outposts. "
After a pause, Zhou Fu continued, "This time, I will lead the team. You three, tell me, how many guards do each of you have now?"
Jin Peng took a step forward and said, "Let me go first. Currently, the Elysium has a total of sixty guards. Among them, there are two in the third level of the Bone Forging realm, and eighteen in the first and second levels of the Bone Forging realm.
Apart from the ten guards guarding the Elysium every day, there are still fifty people available. "
"Huang Jia has a total of one hundred and ten guards. Sixty of them have only been training for two months, and they are all using the techniques provided by the Lord.
Although they are all in the Strength Training realm, they can still fight against someone in the first or second level of the Bone Forging realm.
Apart from these sixty people, there are four in the third level of the Bone Forging realm, and fifteen in the first and second levels. "
After saying that, Huang Feng nodded at Chen Guhong who was beside him.
"The Chen family has a total of one hundred and sixty-four guards. Seventy of them are like Huang Jia, and have only been training for two months.
As for the rest, there are eight in the third level of the Bone Forging realm! "
After hearing this, Jin Peng and Huang Feng both looked at Chen Guhong, their eyes filled with shock.
They all knew that the Chen family had been the most ruthlessly slaughtered by Zhou Fu. The guards belonging to the Chen family had almost all been slaughtered by Zhou Fu. They didn't expect that the strongest force was actually the Chen family!
Chen Guhong didn't stop and continued, "Ten in the second level of the Bone Forging realm, and twenty in the first level."
Hearing the three's report, Zhou Fu was very satisfied. His forces could be considered to have some foundation.
"Good. For this operation, each of you will send one in the third level of the Bone Forging realm, two in the first and second levels, and ten guards each."
"Yes!"
At this time, Jin Peng opened his mouth, "Sir, isn't the number of people we sent a bit too little?"
Zhou Fu shook his head, "It's not too little. This time we're going to destroy one of the Red Sea gang's outposts. It's not like we're going to start a war with them. Why would we send so many people?" Saying this, Zhou Fu's face revealed a trace of a mischievous smile.
"The headquarters already said that we're going to destroy one of their businesses. Then let's choose a restaurant. First, we'll beat them up, then we'll plunder their finances. Once we're done, we'll leave!"
Although it sounded like the style of a local ruffian, the three still braced themselves and accepted it.
After the three of them went to prepare the manpower, Zhou Fu looked out the door and muttered, "This method of creating a diversion is really tried and tested."
