Chapter: 3977

Not only did he have to design all sorts of traps and deceits with meticulous care, but he also had to be vigilant about others coming after him, except for that, his connections with people on the street were not very good. Many colleagues looked at him unfavorably, and being bullied or having someone sabotage him was a common thing.

So he had always been looking forward to having an opportunity to seek out a reliable ally, at least to make life easier in the future.

Ye Chen nodded satisfactorily and said, "That's it, I'll call Hong Wu. You go find him at Heavenly Fragrance Manor later."

But he never thought that Ye Chen would actually let him go directly to see Hong Wu-ge.

If he followed after Hong Wu-ge, he wouldn't dare say a word in Nanjing, and no one would dare provoke him either!

Thinking of this, Zhang Ermiao was overjoyed, nodding his head repeatedly and bowing deeply, repeatedly saying, "Yes, Master Ye! Thank you, Master Ye!"

So he had been struggling to make a living in Nanjing for these years.

After all, he was involved in some shady dealings that people couldn't see or hear about, and they would often beat him up like a dog every now and then, making his life far from stable.

Ultimately, it was mainly because he didn't have anyone powerful backing him up.

Zhang Ermiao wasn't one to think about befriending someone in the same line of work, especially that Dong Kai who specialized in dealing with antiques on Old Street.

However, in Dong Kai's eyes, he was just a low-life scoundrel from the underworld.

Not to mention that even Dong Kai's junior wouldn't take him seriously.

So, without Ye Chen pulling strings for him, even someone like Dong Kai would be out of his league.

But now it's different, since Ye Chen is allowing him to become Hong Wu-ge's teacher in the future, which is equivalent to being lifted up several rungs at once!

As for everything else, starting from today, he can be considered one of Hong Wu-ge's direct subordinates, on par with Master Ma Zongliang, even surpassing Dong Kai who was previously a notch above him.

However, it was precisely because Zhang Eryu deeply realized this point that he felt extremely grateful towards Ye Chen in his heart.

Ye Chen looked at him with a face full of gratitude and benevolence, cautioning him, "Zhang Eryu, after following Hong Wu-ge, you should no longer go to the old antique district to engage in these kinds of shady dealings. Hong Wu-ge may still be a person from the cultivation world, but his business has already been transformed to be clean and spotless, so you shouldn't bother with such things afterwards."

Zhang Eryu hastily assured him, "Master Ye, I will definitely follow your teachings and never touch these unclean things again!"

Ye Chen nodded slightly, feeling that Zhang Eryu's words didn't seem problematic at first, but upon closer examination, he had a slight unease.

In an instant, he thought to himself that compared to himself, who had just swindled twenty billion from Bernard Elron, Zhang Eryu was like a chicken seeing a dragon king.

However, it was fortunate that Ye Chen didn't plan to use the money he got from Elron for his own gain, but rather intended to donate all of it to charity, which would make him feel even more at ease.

Right away, Ye Chen called Hong Wu-ge and asked, "Hong Wu-ge, where are you?"

Hong Wu-ge hurriedly replied, "Ye Master, I'm at the Tianxiang Courtyard. What's your instruction?"

Ye Chen said, "I've found a teacher for you. Since you're at the Tianxiang Courtyard, I'll send him to find you later."

Hong Wu-ge was taken aback and asked, "You've found a teacher for me?! Master Ye, who is this teacher?" JrNovels.com
