264: C264 Catch-up?

C264 Catch-up?

Or perhaps, there was no level of trust between them.

Black-skinned Monkey did not say much. He only considered meeting by chance to be a friend. As for the others, there was no need to say anything more.

Black-skinned Monkey left alone. Jiang Chen and Fu Shidong were also tired from the night and were about to head home. Fu Shidong picked up the phone and turned around to call Jiang Chen.

"Three days later, Ma Boqian will hold the succession ceremony at Ma Family. He invited almost all of Guihai's large and small families. It's said that even the big families of the provinces will send people over."

Fu Shidong directly explained the news he received.

After Jiang Chen heard this, his eyes squinted. This seemed to be an opportunity.

If he could defeat Ma Family at the ceremony of the successor, then Ma Family would certainly have a terrible reputation. At that time, it would be much easier to deal with Ma Family.

But this opportunity also required someone to do the fuse. Old Master Liu had just recovered, and he was afraid that he would need to busy himself with organizing the Liu Family.

Even if he received this news, he would most likely not immediately decide to take action.

But for himself, if Ma Boqian was able to hold his ground, then it would be extremely difficult for him to deal with Ma Family.

No matter what their goal was, once Ma Boqian was able to stand firm in his position, this force would definitely support him, the manager of Ma Family, to the best of his ability.

In his current situation, he didn't want to use any of those forces or means. The opportunity in front of him was the most important thing to him.

"What do you think?"

Fu Shidong saw the hesitation in Jiang Chen's eyes. This was a rare opportunity, so he must have been tempted.

But what was missing was something that could give him enough push, something that could be used as a shield.

"This is a rare opportunity, I need to go back and chat with Old Master Liu again. Help me gather all the information I can regarding this enthronement ceremony.

These words of Jiang Chen proved that he held this opportunity in high regard, and this even surpassed the relationship between the Liu Family.

In terms of strength, the Liu Clan and the Ma Clan were on par with each other.

If they were to really fight, Old Master Liu's connections and resources would be the most practical backer. He did not need to rely on Ma Family at all.

What was lacking was an opportunity to ignite the power of his Liu Family, allowing Old Master Liu to make up his mind to stand together with him and reveal his cards in front of the Ma Family.

"Alright, I'll listen to you."

Fu Shidong supported Jiang Chen, and after all this time, he knew that Jiang Chen was not a man to be reckoned with.

With that, Jiang Chen turned around and returned to Old Master Liu's hiding place. Old Master Liu was still awake, and it was unknown if he got the news as well.

Old Master Liu ordered Liu Tie to stand guard outside the door. He and Jiang Chen lit a small lamp inside the room and sat opposite each other under the lamp. A pot of brewed tea was placed on the table in front of them.

"Honored tutor, did you get the news as well?"

Jiang Chen went straight to the point. There was no need to think in a roundabout way at this time.

When he came back, he just wanted to hear Old Master Liu's attitude.

"Has the enmity between you and the Ma Family really reached the point where it can't be resolved?"

Old Master Liu was probing. He cared more than Jiang Chen, so he needed sufficient motivation and benefits to make him make up his mind.

As you can see, this time, the Liu Family's head was in trouble at the same time, and there was definitely a huge backer behind it. No matter what you think, I will not let this situation continue, after all, once the Liu Family's new head stands firmly, then it will be as difficult as ascending to the heavens.

There were some things that were inconvenient to say, but Jiang Chen believed Old Master Liu would do it too.0

Liu Changjun had never been favored by Old Master Liu in Liu Family, so he was immediately able to take charge of the overall situation when the old man went missing.

Was the Liu Family truly capable of supporting him, or was there some other factor within?

Based on the situation in front of him, the factors were definitely not weak.

The biggest possibility was that there was a powerful external force that wanted to reshuffle their Guihai.

Therefore, they first found puppets in the Liu and Ma families, and then used methods to get rid of the current owners of the puppets. In the end, they assisted the puppets in ascending to the throne.

Once the puppet gained a foothold, then the Guihai would become the object of this force.

At that time, the Heaven's Guihai would no longer be surnamed Liu or Ma, and no one would know of its surname.

"You saw it very clearly. As expected of someone from the Jiang Family."

Old Master Liu praised Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen was overjoyed. This was his attitude! Old Master Liu's attitude, for him to give such an evaluation meant that he was on his side.

"Guihai is one of the most important cities, and it has a firm footing here, not much worse than when you were in the capital. It has been more than three years since you were expelled from the Jiang Family! The opportunity you are waiting for, the one before your eyes, is extremely suitable for you. "

Old Master Liu's impatient attitude towards Jiang Chen meant that he wanted to use this opportunity to rise to prominence and return to Jiang Family.

Jiang Chen did not correct his understanding and only said matter-of-factly: "Old man, didn't Liu Family wait for such an opportunity? Without this chance, you would want to help Liu Family to nurture a few outstanding juniors in your lifetime, or climb up a large and sturdy tree in the country. Is that really what you want to do? "

Jiang Chen knew Old Master Liu's background. He had left the army as a teenager and had been doing it for decades.

The businesses in the Liu Family over the past few decades had all been built on him.

Therefore, he was not someone who was used to relying on others. The things that he could obtain from others, even if they were inferior to those obtained from others, were still better.

He was strongly cultivating the Liu Family Junior, but when these juniors were able to stand up and train their Liu Family, most likely, he would not be here anymore, the process was too simple, he could not afford to wait, what he needed was something that could help him quickly, and immediately cause his Liu Family to regain its status as one of the top families in the nation.

Old Master Liu didn't say anything. He just picked up the teapot and filled their cups with tea.

After drinking a mouthful of tea, he then said: "If my Liu Family can have a junior like you, then why would an old bones of my age personally serve me?!"

That's right! Life was only a few decades. After all, one's energy was limited and could not live indefinitely. The things one could leave behind for their family or for the younger generation were all things one could obtain after decades of hard work.

"Are you afraid?"

"Scared, of course I'm scared. No one is fearless, it's just that the things they fear are different."

A smile appeared on Old Master Liu's face as flames burned in his eyes.

"So, have you decided to work with me?"

"Ten years ago, I wouldn't have. Five years ago, I wouldn't have, even half a month ago, but now …!"

Master Liu revealed a message that Jiang Chen, who was very obscure, did not sense before.

He was enduring an enormous pressure, pressure that came from the Liu Family itself, and also from that powerful external force.

Therefore, he was actually being forced to do something in his lifetime.
