Chapter 647: The Obsession with Wealth
e, since you've brought her here, don't send her back. I've been cooped up at home these past few days and I'm bursting with pent-up energy. Might as well have this woman keep me company!"Wei Tao look...What's wrong with Shen Wansan
Zhou Zhiqian was taken aback.
The Shen family has always been in the timber business. A while ago, Shen Wansan took people to Heksiazilin to cut trees, but after three days and three nights, no one came back. People went to look for them, and they only found Shen Wansan, but that Shen Wansan was like a fool. He needed someone to feed him even when he ate and drank.
”
Zhou Zhicheng explained.
"Black Bear Forest" Zhou Zhiqian was surprised: "Isn't Shen Wansan crazy How dare he bring people to Black Bear Forest to cut trees. You know that no one has dared to go to Black Bear Forest for many years."
”
“Isn't it all because of money The trees in Hei Xia Zi Lin are tall and thick, how could the Shen family not be envious So Shen Wan San led people there, but everyone died except Shen Wan San, who became a fool. But this time, the Shen family didn't go empty-handed; they found that thousand-year ginseng king in Hei Xia Zi Lin…”
When Zhou Zhicheng said this, Zhou Zhiqian immediately understood. No wonder no one had found this ginseng king before. You have to know that many people go up the mountain to collect medicine and mushrooms in Northeast China, it's impossible for the ginseng king to be undiscovered. It turned out that it was found in the black bear forest.
"What is this black bear forest"
Chen Ping couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Oh, Mr. Chen, you may not know this, but there's a forest here where no one who enters ever comes out alive. Over time, the story spread that there were black bears in the forest that ate people, so it became known as Black Bear Forest. No one dares to go in anymore..."
Zhou Zhiqian followed Chen Ping's explanation.
Zhou Zhicheng was stunned to see Zhou Zhiqian and Chen Ping being so polite to each other, and even addressing each other as "Mr."
He always thought that Chen Ping, Lin Tianhu and Chi Feng were all under Zhou Zhiqian's command and came with him, but it turned out not to be what he expected.
"Brother, who are these people"
It was then that Zhou Zhicheng asked Zhou Zhiqian.
"Oh, this is Mr. Chen, he came especially for the King of Ginseng..."
Zhou Zhiqian said.
"Brother, we can get this thousand-year ginseng king ourselves. Why did you bring others here"
Zhou Zhicheng glared at Zhou Zhiqian with displeasure. He had told Zhou Zhiqian this so that they could buy the Millennium Ginseng King themselves, but he didn't expect Zhou Zhiqian to bring outsiders along.
"Shut up..." Zhou Zhiqian glared fiercely at Zhou Zhicheng: "Even if we buy this ginseng king, it's to give to Mr. Chen."
”
Zhou Zhiqian's words made Zhou Zhicheng re-examine Chen Ping. He found that Chen Ping was just an ordinary young man with no noble air, unlike a son of a wealthy family. He couldn't understand why his elder brother was so respectful towards Chen Ping.
Although Zhou Zhicheng didn't say anything under Zhou Zhiqian's pressure, it was obvious that he was very dissatisfied.
"Mr. Chen, my fourth younger brother is too greedy for money, don't mind him..."
Zhou Zhiqian smiled apologetically at Chen Ping.
"Never mind..."
Chen Ping smiled and said.
Soon, the meal was ready, Zhou Zhiqian enthusiastically invited Chen Ping and others to eat, and also prepared rooms for them.
But Chen Ping refused. He didn't want to live at Zhou's house. Living in someone else's home, Chen Ping felt a little uncomfortable. He still asked Lin Tianhu to find a hotel, and the three of them checked into the hotel.
After settling in, Chen Ping took Lin Tianhu and Chi Feng for a stroll down the streets of this small county town. Although it wasn't very bustling, the scenery was pleasant and the air was fresh.
Just when Chen Ping was strolling with Lin Tianhu and Chi Feng, at this moment in the Zhou family's hall, Zhou Zhicheng called his son Zhou Wei to his side.
"Dad, what did you call me for"
Zhou Wei asked with a puzzled expression.
Zhou Zhicheng looked at Zhou Zhiqian's room and then whispered to Zhou Wei, "Do you know where the three people who came with your uncle are staying"he power of heaven and earth woven into this place has gradually faded."This would almost have dissipated, otherwise with this landscape's momentum, it wouldn't be a problem for us to cultivate into i...
