Chapter 247 is extremely insulting!
If Chen Ziyan were to describe the fat man’s behavior at this time.
That is not very harmful, but extremely insulting!
That is to say, Big Gold Tooth is good at nourishing Qi. If it were a person with a more grumpy temper, he would probably have rushed towards the fat man with his bastard fist.
Although Da Jinya did not throw a punch, he did not give in at all: "Oh, fat man, this is not interesting! You go out to Panjiayuan to inquire about my big brother." No one should give a thumbs up to Jinya’s reputation! ”
"Do you believe this?" Wang Kaixuan's face was full of doubts.
Da Jinya nodded without hesitation: "Believe it, why don't you believe it!"
Seeing that these two things were getting worse, Hu Bayi had no choice but to stop them. : "I said okay, don't start fighting each other as soon as you two meet. I don't think there are any guests here."
While speaking, he quietly looked at the women next to him and thought in his heart I'm curious where this came from, but it doesn't look like a good thing.
Chen Ziyan also observed these women. After Da Jinya stopped, he asked: "Old Jin, I wonder who these are?"
Without even thinking about it, he knew that these people must be coming for him, but he just didn't know their purpose.
“Ouch, knock my brain, I almost forgot about the real thing.” Da Jinya looked as if he was stunned, and immediately patted his forehead: “These people are waiting for you, Mr. Chen. "Yes, we have something important to discuss."
While talking, this guy showed a bright smile to several women, but his bright smile was a bit wretched.
Just by the performance of Big Jinya, Chen Ziyan knew that there must be something fishy in it. However, he knew that Big Jinya had a sense of propriety in doing things and knew what he could do and what he couldn't do, so he didn't bother to pay attention to it. There's something so little about this guy.
Chen Ziyan's eyes swept over the women in front of him, and finally landed on one of them, a cold woman about thirty years old, and said slowly: "Excuse me, please wait, I don't know who is looking for me, Mr. Chen." Any advice? ”
The positions of these women were very regular, so he could tell who was in charge at a glance.
It is strange to say that since these people are looking for me, but it has been a while since I came in, these people did not even say hello. There is something wrong with this attitude.
Don’t you know the importance of a good impression when doing things?
While Chen Ziyan was secretly cursing, the cold woman stood up and looked at him: "Master Chen, our head would like to ask you to meet me."
Although the tone was relatively calm, but But he was respectful and obviously not someone who didn't understand the rules.
Chen Ziyan sat down and asked calmly: "Since it is an invitation, should I give my name?"
When he said this, he glanced at the big golden tooth without any trace.
Logically speaking, since it was Da Jinya who brought him here, he would have to do the job of introduction.
But Da Jinya, who has always done things impeccably, seems to have been negligent this time, and he doesn’t know what his intention is.
In short, this is very inconsistent with Da Jinya’s past behavior style.
However, Chen Ziyan didn't think too much about it, but concentrated on waiting for the other party's answer.
He now has a preliminary guess about the origins of these women, but he can't make a complete conclusion yet.
After all, in this area of the capital, the only ones who have female clerks under them are, not surprisingly, the Huo family of the old nine families.
The fact was not beyond his expectation. He heard the cold woman say: "Master Chen, we are from the Huo family. We are here on the order of the head of the family to invite you to come. "Give me a reason to agree."
" Chen Ziyan pondered slightly and said this.
It is impossible for him to go to anyone who asks, especially in this way. He is indeed afraid of the Nine Sects, but he is only afraid of a few people, and they do not include the Huo family controlled by Huo Xiangu.
Hearing Chen Ziyan's words, the cold woman fell silent for a while, and then said after a while: "Please forgive me for the abruptness, but please believe, Mr. Chen, that the Huo family has no intention of looking down upon, but the head of the family is now entangled in trivial matters. , so I can’t visit in person.”
The cold woman understood what Chen Ziyan meant, and knew that if she didn’t give a reasonable reason, she and others might not be able to complete their mission.
As for taking Chen Ziyan back by force, let alone the strict prohibition of the family head, the beast-like man behind him was no longer something they could deal with.
Not to mention who in the antique shop today doesn’t know that there is a master Chen in Panjiayuan who not only destroyed several huge tombs in succession, but also successfully resisted the tactics of Liulichang.
Especially his resembling style of dealing with people makes people fearful.
"Troubled with trivial matters?" Chen Ziyan did not pay attention to the previous words, but focused on these four words. He thought about it and said with a smile: "Things that can make Huo Xiangu have no time to do anything are incredible. It won’t be a trivial matter.”
While saying this, Chen Ziyan was also thinking secretly in his mind, recalling the plot of this time period.
Speaking of the story of stealing pens, it was already after the millennium. As for some things in this time period, there were only a few words in subsequent conversations, so Chen Ziyan’s memory of this Not very profound.
To give a more specific example, the cold woman in front of me seems to be a core member of the Huo family, and may even be an important pillar.
But he didn't have the slightest impression, which meant that this woman did not appear in the official plot later.
Regarding this situation, Chen Ziyan thought of two possibilities. One is that this person disappeared before the millennium, and the other is that her appearance itself was a deviation caused by the integration of the world.
However, this matter cannot be investigated for the time being, so I can only choose to ignore it.
The reason why Chen Ziyan said this now was actually to test it out, and to try to deduce the Huo family's true purpose of looking for him from the reply of the woman in front of him.
After all, the other party was already waiting here before he even entered the house, which seemed a little anxious.
You must know that this is the first contact between the two parties. Taking the initiative in this kind of thing will undoubtedly put you at a disadvantage to some extent.
According to Chen Ziyan's understanding of Huo Xiangu, this is not something that the other party would do. Unless the matter is particularly urgent, there is no reason to do this.
Compared with taking the initiative to visit someone like this, Chen Ziyan felt that a 'accidental encounter' on a certain occasion would be a better choice for the first contact.
For example - he went to the Crescent Hotel exactly.
At least that way, it won't seem so abrupt.
"We have no right to interfere with the affairs of the head of the family. If Mr. Chen is interested, he might as well go and ask in person."
The cold woman gave the answer without thinking this time. It seemed that she had just given the answer. I have already thought of my words.
Seeing this, Chen Ziyan also knew that it was impossible to know more from her.
After thinking about it silently in his mind, Chen Ziyan felt that he should go and take a look. Even though Jiumen was no longer subversive, it was still one of the top powers in the industry. As long as Huo Xiangu had no ill intentions towards him, Then a little exposure isn't a bad thing.
After making up his mind, Chen Ziyan said: "Since the Huo family is so kind, I can't help but appreciate it, but I have to trouble you to wait for a while. Our journey is very dusty. Just clean it up.”
The cold woman had no objection. This was Chen Ziyan's respect for her side. It would be real disrespect if he came to her like this. Afterwards, Chen Ziyan asked Da Jinya to entertain a few people, while he led the others through the front hall to the backyard of his residence.
After walking through the courtyard gate, Hu Bayi immediately asked in a low voice: "Master Chen, are we really going to the Huo family?"
The Huo family He also knows a thing or two, and knows that it is not an easy existence to deal with. It can be said that the background is extremely profound, and in a sense, it is much stronger than the people in Liulichang.
After all, most of the people in Liulichang were in the construction industry, and when the Huo family was at its peak, they could be considered powerful. The gap between the two is very obvious.
They haven't solved the problem at Liulichang yet, and they don't know whether the Huo family's appearance is a blessing or a curse.
"The matter is already in front of us. No matter what is going on, you have to take a look to find out." Chen Ziyan said.
Wang Kaixuan also said: "Even if it's a dragon's pond and a tiger's den, our brothers will still run rampant."
He also heard Da Jinya mention the Huo family, but he only I remember that this family was dominated by women, and I didn’t remember much else.
But Wang Kaixuan doesn't care about those things. To him, these are not the key. There are indeed things that Wang Kaixuan is afraid of, but they definitely don't include people.
Hu Bayi also knew that this was the case. Now that people had come to visit them, it would be easier to make a grudge if they refused rashly. It would be better to go and have a look before talking.
"By the way, do you feel that something is wrong with the big golden tooth?" Hu Bayi suddenly thought of something and asked Chen Ziyan and Wang Kaixuan.
He had wanted to say this for a long time, but it just wasn't appropriate, so he didn't say it until now.
Wang Kaixuan was a little puzzled and said: "Something's wrong with Old Jin? It's quite normal."
He didn't feel this way, and felt that the big gold tooth was still the same as usual.
Chen Ziyan did not answer immediately. After thinking for a while, he said: "I also feel something is wrong, but I don't know where the problem lies."
After thinking about it, there was no result, so Chen Ziyan had to say: "Let's do this." We’ll talk about it when we get back, but just be careful now.”
He has no good way to deal with it, so he can only deal with it this way.
Afterwards, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan left through the side door and returned to their yard to prepare.
About ten minutes later, the three people returned to the front yard.
Compared with Chen Ziyan who was empty-handed, Hu Bayi and Wang Kaixuan carried a lot of 'stuff'. Wang Kaixuan was carrying a brand-new backpack, and he knew what was inside without even thinking about it, but Hu Bayi did not. It's a 'big item', but it can be seen from the slight bulge in his waist that he probably brought a weapon with him.
The moment he approached the front yard, Chen Ziyan noticed an awkward atmosphere.
The big gold teeth that used to be so exquisite now seem to have become a saw-mouthed gourd. The sharp tongue that can talk even ghosts for a while is as if it has encountered a nemesis and is completely useless. The place of martial arts.
A few Huo women were sitting there minding their own business, seemingly showing no intention of communicating with Da Jinya.
When Da Jinya saw Chen Ziyan and the others, it was as if he had seen a savior. He quickly stood up and said, "How many of you have packed up?"
He had never thought that being with a woman would be so difficult.
"It's done." Chen Ziyan nodded slightly to him, and then said to the cold woman: "Miss, let's go."
Although he was lazy when he had nothing to do, he was always lazy when he had something to do. When working, I prefer to do things first and then rest.
The cold woman would not refute, so she made a gesture to Chen Ziyan: "Please!"
Then she led the way and led Chen Ziyan and others out of here.
Chen Ziyan didn't know the address of the Huo family and thought it was far away from his residence.
After all, the Huo family is a family, and they must have a manor. But he didn't expect it to be not far from his home, and it was only a few minutes' drive away.
When the car stopped, what appeared in front of Chen Ziyan was a house with simple and elegant decoration.
Although this house is not as big as a manor, its area is much larger than his yard.
The cold woman obviously had a high status in the Huo family. The whole journey was completely smooth and she led several people directly to the living room of the house.
It's not that I didn't encounter the Huo family along the way, but without exception, these people acted as if they hadn't seen them.
After arriving in the living room, the cold woman asked people to bring tea and snacks, and then said: "Guys, wait a moment, I will invite the master of the house to come over."
After finishing speaking, He took those men and left.
After they left, Chen Ziyan and others were the only ones left in the huge living room.
After Chen Ziyan took a casual look at the environment, he hugged the little fairy and sat on the sofa. Wushuang Ghost stood behind him as always.
Although Hu Bayi was intent on observing, he still couldn't let go of some idol baggage, so after hesitating for a few seconds, he honestly walked to Chen Ziyan's side.
However, Da Jinya and Wang Kaixuan had no scruples. The two of them got together and began to wander around the living room, studying the antiques placed on one side.
As one of the tomb robber families, the Huo family’s heritage cannot be underestimated, so many rare and exquisite items are placed in this living room.
Even Da Jinya, who has been involved in the antique business for many years, couldn’t help but be amazed when he saw these antiques. He said that this trip really enriched his knowledge.
Wang Kaixuan, who had little experience in this area, almost drooled under Da Jinya's explanation.
Chen Ziyan thought it didn't matter to the two people's "Grandma Liu enters the Grand View Garden" attitude, but Hu Bayi didn't think so. He said helplessly: "I said if you two can have some potential, come here and sit down."
If someone saw this, wouldn't it mean that they would lose three points from the start?
"Why are you so anxious, Old Hu? Since it's all here, it's just for people to see." Wang Kaixuan said plausibly.
Although these things are not my own, it is good to have an eyeful of them.
Although Da Jinya said nothing, judging from his behavior, he also agreed with Wang Kaixuan's words.
Chen Ziyan saw that Hu Bayi wanted to stand up, so he patted him on the shoulder and advised: "You don't know who they are yet, go and see if you want. I guess we don't have any secrets in the eyes of others." "
He felt that the Huo family had probably investigated the information about himself and others, so there was no need to make any special disguises.
