Chapter: 6504
Just as he was speaking, the TV screen changed again, with a male announcer reporting the next piece of news in a nonchalant tone.
As soon as the host's voice fell silent, the TV screen switched to a conference room inside Jinling University, where Chairman Hao Yuanjiang sat in the middle C seat, with the university president sitting next to him.
Xie Changkun saw Hao Yuanjiang looking spirited on TV and felt a sense of unease from his heart. He simply picked up the remote control and turned off the TV, poured himself a cup of tea in a purple sand teapot, and said, "This TV is getting more pointless by the minute, let's drink some tea!"
As he spoke, he poured four cups of tea in front of him.
At this moment, the doorbell suddenly rang. Xie Changkun picked up one of the cups and took a sip before standing up and saying to the others, "You guys can drink first, I'll go see who's there."
He then hurriedly left the living room.
Recently, Xie Changkun's overall mood was still quite good, but as long as he didn't watch any news related to Hao Yuanjiang, his subconscious mind told him that he was Hao Yuanjiang's underdog, and had been defeated by him. He had even lost his position as vice president of the Calligraphy Association, while others had suddenly become the CEO of Long'an Automobile, equivalent to climbing a small hill but not reaching the top, only to fall halfway up the mountain, with a gap that was like heaven and earth apart.
Agitated Xie Changkun arrived at the front door when he couldn't help but mutter under his breath: "Damn it, wait until you bankrupt Long'an Automobile one day, I'll laugh at you then! I'll buy 100 fireworks and put them outside the door of Long'an Automobile!"
As he spoke, he came to the front door, looked at the monitor, and was astonished to find that standing at his doorstep was actually Hong Wu.
Surprised and flattered, he quickly opened the door, walked out into the courtyard, and hastily opened the iron gate, looking at Hong Wu outside, flattering him with: "Ah, Five Uncle, what's the wind blowing you here? You're coming home, why didn't you call me in advance so I can prepare some tea for you...?"
Hong Wu smiled and asked quietly: "Mr. Xie, is Master Ye at home? I have something to ask him..."
"Come on in, come on in!" Xie Changkun said with a smile. "We've just finished dinner, Ye Chen is drinking tea right now, please come in!"
Saying that, he immediately invited Hong Wu inside.
Hong Wu entered the house, and Xie Changkun quickly walked two steps ahead, excitedly telling his family: "Five Uncle has arrived, let's welcome him quickly!"
Ye Chen naturally knew Hong Wu's intentions, which was something he had arranged himself. However, Xie Chunran and Ma Ran were a bit puzzled as to why Hong Wu came to their house uninvited.
However, Ma Ran knew the value of Hong Wu in Jinling, so she quickly stood up and smiled obsequiously: "Ah, Five Uncle is here! Please sit down, please sit down!"
Hong Wu nodded politely towards her and said: "Ma lady is fine."
After that, he looked at Ye Chen and Xie Chunran with great courtesy and said: "Ye Master is well, Mrs. Ye is well!"
Xie Chunran smiled and nodded in agreement, while Ye Chen pretended to be curious and asked him: "Mr. Hong, don't you know what brings you here?"
Hong Wu hurriedly replied: "Ye Master, I've come this time to ask for your help with a matter of utmost urgency. You must definitely agree!"
Xie Changkun listened to these words and knew that Hong Wu was seeking Ye Chen's help. Since he himself had managed to get back into the Calligraphy Association thanks to Ye Chen finding Hong Wu, and in the future, he would also rely on Hong Wu for protection. Therefore, he quickly told Ye Chen: "Good son-in-law, Five Uncle has always been busy helping us at home. This time, you must absolutely not refuse Five Uncle's request!"
"You mean Hong Master hasn't told you what's going on?" Ye Chen said. "Well, please tell me first, see if it falls within my abilities."
Hong Wu hastily replied: "It's like this, Ye Master, I have an old brother-in-law who developed a coal mine in the northwest border region, invested tens of billions, and just started to produce something. But unexpectedly, three days ago, there were accidents galore - today it's subsidence, tomorrow it's landslides, and even gas leaks occurred. Luckily, we discovered it on time; otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable."
As he said this, Hong Wu looked at Ye Chen and said: "Ye Master, my old brother-in-law is suspicious, possibly because there are some issues with the mine's feng shui, which is crucial. So I've asked you to take a look, since you're the most knowledgeable about feng shui among those around me."
Xie Chunran subconsciously said: "Too dangerous! One day to another, accidents keep happening. Old man, let's just not go there and avoid this mess; it's too dangerous." JrNovels.com
