A man in a long gown quickly came out and greeted Jin Chengzhong with a smile.
"Master Jin, long time no see. I'm afraid you have suffered a lot these years."
A man in a long gown came out with a smile on his face.
Jin Chengzhong seemed to be very familiar with him. The two chatted for a while before Jin Chengzhong introduced Xiao Chen.
Although his identity was not made clear, his words were full of respect.
"It turns out to be Governor Xiao. How disrespectful and disrespectful."
Xiao Chen looked confused and his eyes fell on Jin Chengzhong.
He quickly introduced: "Master, this gentleman can be regarded as an old friend of my subordinates."
"When I was in trouble, I only survived with the help of this gentleman."
"You were also together at the time, but you were too young, so you probably don't even remember it."
Xiao Chen really didn't remember, but he believed that Jin Chengzhong wouldn't lie.
I learned from him that the name of the gentleman in front of me was Duan Haichao.
Xiao Chen quickly raised his hands and responded: "It's really shameful that I don't remember Mr. Jackie Chan's kindness. Please forgive me."
"Hey, what are you talking about!"
Duan Haichao also didn't expect that the person he casually rescued would achieve such success.
It is also because of this relationship that he can continue to serve as the dean.
The other students were confused. The dean actually knew Xiao Chen and the others?
Although he was greatly shocked, if he knew him, the news of the disappearance of other college teachers or deans should not have much to do with him.
Everyone was extremely confused and couldn't figure it out. They just watched Xiao Chen and others enter the living room.
Duan Haichao asked someone to give him a few cups of hot tea.
Xiao Chen took a sip, and then said bluntly: "Dean Duan, do you know the purpose of our trip?"
Duan Haichao shook his head with a confused look on his face: "Please give Governor Xiao a clear explanation."
"It's very simple. People related to Japan in various colleges and universities have been dealt with calmly by Jin Chengzhong."
"It's just that you have also seen that many people are still worried about this matter. If this continues, it may not be conducive to our plan."
Since Jin Chengzhong turned out to be him, Xiao Chen did not hide anything and told his plan frankly.
"I want to be the boss of Jiangdong Road and win the hearts of the people. I hope Dean Duan can deal with it just for this matter.
Duan Haichao was slightly surprised and said awkwardly: "The adults are really looking up to the younger ones. How can the younger ones have such ability?"
"You hold a high position and have power behind you, while I am at best the dean of an ordinary academy."
What he said was indeed true.
But Xiao Chen said categorically: "It's because you are the dean of the academy!"
"I inquired about the results and found out that Lejingnan Academy is quite famous throughout Jiangdong, and as the dean of this place, your livelihood cannot be underestimated."
"Recent events have caused panic. If you can come forward and blame all these things on the Japanese people, I think they won't suspect too much."
"Of course, I will play the role of eradicating Japan in this process, thereby gaining the trust of the people."
The words here are mixed between true and false. It is true that he wants to deal with Japanese people and he really wants to gain trust.
Duan Haichao lowered his head in embarrassment, "It's not that I don't want to help, but I'm worried that it won't work..."
At this time, Jin Chengzhong next to him quickly encouraged: "Dean Duan, you don't have to be so humble. No one is more suitable to do this than you."
Xiao Chen then said: "If you can accomplish this, I will advocate the merger of several other academies, and the position of general dean will be given to you."
"One person monopolizes the entire private school in Jiangdong Road. It does not require the children to be oppressed by the Japanese, but it can also expand your prestige here. Isn't it killing two birds with one stone?"
Xiao Chen smiled calmly and comfortably, but his words were full of temptation, and those who listened felt itchy in their hearts.
Duan Haichao struggled for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth: "Okay, I'll give it a try!"
Even if he doesn't succeed, he won't lose anything.
But once he succeeds, his status here will rise.
He had long been unable to bear the cultural ideas of Japanese people in other academies, and had become advocating foreigners.
Now, Xiao Chen actually gave him an opportunity to unify the culture. As a scholar, how could he give up so easily?
After the two parties reached an agreement, Jiang Haichao also used his prestige in major private schools to contact the more famous local teachers and join them in protesting against the Japanese.
Of course, Xiao Chen also joined in, expressing his hatred for the Japanese and his determination to eliminate them.
Thanks to his generous expression, the teachers today also share the same hatred and worship Xiao Chen.
The teacher's behavior affects the students, and naturally, Xiao Chen's image becomes taller in the students' hearts.
Xiao Chen's popularity is getting better and better day by day. He travels around various colleges every day and gives lectures to students if he has nothing to do.
It is also very beneficial to refresh the sense of presence and impart new knowledge.
As for several major families in Jiangdong Road, they were beaten by Jin Chengzhong and had to run away or disperse. Almost all of them were in a state of despair.
Hearing about Xiao Chen's rising reputation, everyone couldn't help but have their own thoughts.
Headed by the Xia family.
Xia Xian discussed with many elders in his family.
"Xiao Chen is in the limelight recently. If we can curry favor with him, maybe we can make a comeback."
"That Xiao Chen was sent by the emperor to purge the Japanese people. If he knew about the business we were doing with the Japanese people, I'm afraid it would be too late to produce anything!"
"With our current situation, we can no longer withstand any storms. Are you sure you call it a desperate act?"
Everyone has different opinions, each with their own considerations and concerns.
The head of the family, Xia Xian, was also a little helpless, "The Japanese people do business with us on the surface, but in reality they use power to oppress and seek benefits."
"My husband was stabbed by an unknown force a few days ago. Now we are like this, but those people are indifferent."
"How can we trust such a person? It is better to put aside the relationship in the future and restore our own strength first!"
Several people discussed it and finally listened to Xia Xian's words.
At the same time, Xiao Chen was inviting other people to the restaurant when he saw the waiter coming in a hurry: "Young Master, Mr. Xia wants to see you. Can you let him in?"
"Master Xia?"
Xiao Chen frowned, the name sounded familiar.
Duan Haichao said quickly: "I'm afraid it's the Xia family, one of the three major families in Jiangdong Road."
"In recent years, they have slightly colluded with the Japanese. They were secretly punished by Mr. Jin a few days ago, and they suffered heavy losses all at once."
"Now that I am here suddenly, I am afraid that I heard about your reputation, Lord Governor, so I came here to ask for asylum."
As expected of someone who has been around Jiangdong Road for so long, Duan Haichao explained it very clearly.
