Chapter: 606
Wei Changming heard this and burst into tears, sobbing uncontrollably.
He was originally the second-in-command of Wei's pharmaceuticals, with a wide network in Jinling and a wealthy family background. His daily routine was indeed like a luxurious life, indulging in extravagance, getting drunk on wine, and enjoying luxurious pursuits.
Suddenly, he was forced to go to Changbai Mountain to dig herbs and spend the rest of his life there, which was even more painful than being sentenced to indefinite imprisonment.
After all, as long as one serves their sentence in prison, they can at least catch a glimpse of modern social life's smoke and fire.
However, if he went to Changbai Mountain, that cold, harsh, and bitter place would be unbearable for himself.
In despair, he wailed: "No! I won't go! I don't want to go to that desolate place to dig herbs!"
After finishing, he looked at Ye Chen and, with his head bowed, said: "Ye Master, please forgive me! I'm willing to leave China and never come back again. Never find trouble with Wei Liang again. Please don't let me go to that desolate place!"
But Ye Chen didn't give them a chance, directly commanding the rest of the Wei family: "You people from the Wei family, listen up! From now on, you have only two options: either follow Wei Liang and do your job well, with Wei Liang ensuring each of you keeps your current interests; or follow them to Changbai Mountain to dig ginseng!"
After Ye Chen finished speaking, his expression turned stern and he shouted: "I give you all 10 seconds to make up your minds. Think carefully about who you want to stand behind, then move in that direction!"
As soon as Ye Chen spoke, everyone from the Wei family sprang into action.
However, without exception, they all stood behind Wei Liang!
Wei Yongzheng and Wei Changming were furious and scolded: "You're a bunch of good-for-nothing, useless people! My family has wasted its breath on you!"
Everyone ignored their father-son's reprimands. It was like when the tree falls, the monkeys scatter; when the wall collapses, the people push it away. At this point, even idiots wouldn't stand with them and follow them to Changbai Mountain to dig ginseng for a lifetime!
Wei Changming wailed loudly, while Wei Yongzheng twitched all over.
Seeing that the situation was out of control, Wei Changming could only look at Wei Liang and plead: "Brother, my good brother! Although we're not from the same mother, we're still brothers. We share half our bloodline. You can pity me, help me ask Ye Master for mercy and spare my life! From now on, everything is yours; I don't want anything. Just please don't send me to Changbai Mountain!"
Wei Liang looked at him coldly and said: "I won't do it just for someone like you. I'll defy Ye Master's decision! Moreover, after so many years, you've never treated me as a brother. You've bullied me and insulted my mother all these years. I've already hated you to the bone! Your present situation is entirely your own doing. I'm thrilled that it's happening!"
Wei Yongzheng trembled as he said, "Wei Liang, how can I not be your father too? You're treating your own father like this, and you don't fear the heavens striking you with lightning?"
"Not afraid!" Wei Liang asked coldly. "It's you who have hurt so many women and wronged so many of your own kin. Don't you fear retribution?"
Wei Yongzheng said sincerely, "In fact, you're already experiencing retribution! You know it yourself - you've got only a few years left to live. Even if a miracle occurs, you might be able to live for a few more years, but considering your physical condition, the time you have left is just as good as suffering! This is your retribution!"
"You...you..." Wei Yongzheng struggled to speak, his anger boiling over and causing him to cough violently.
Yè Chén spoke calmly, "Give you two an hour to prepare. An hour from now, I'll arrange someone to take you to Changbai Mountain!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yè Chén immediately called Hong Wu Ye and said, "Hong Wu, arrange a few clever assistants to come to Wei's house and bring Wei's father-son duo on the way to Changbai Mountain!"
Hong Wu Ye responded promptly, "Okay, Master Yè. I'll arrange it now."
After that, Hong Wu Ye asked again, "Ah, Master Yè, what will happen after you send them to Changbai Mountain?"
Yè Chén replied, "Send them to the village at the foot of Changbai Mountain. Once they're there, have someone buy a small hut that can barely shelter from the wind and rain for them to live in. Also, provide them with some rice, flour, and oil for their future life on Changbai Mountain. Even if they're cremated, make sure to bury their ashes at the foot of Changbai Mountain! Understand?"
