Chen Wentai walked on the street with a dull expression, and what Wang Mo said just now lingered in his ears.
In other words, it was Wang Mo's request to him.
Use the casino in exchange for the Chen family's incredible wealth.
You know, to be an enemy of the casino is to be against some big figures in the official circles of the Daxing Dynasty!
After all, in the casinos, brothels, restaurants and other special businesses of the Daxing Dynasty, there are no shadows of some big shots. Only with the backing of these big shots can these businesses continue to operate. This is connections!
Therefore, a considerable part of the profits from these businesses go into the pockets of these big shots.
Therefore, to deal with casinos, you have to cut off the money bags of some big shots.
Such behavior can be said to be no different from seeking death!
But there is one thing to say. In the entire Tianqing City, if anyone has the ability to bring down casinos and other businesses, it is only the Chen family.
Not even the Zhang family.
Because the ancestors of the Chen family once followed Taizu of the Daxing Dynasty to conquer the world. Now a hundred years have passed, although that ancestor has long since died.
But to this day, the Chen family's invisible connections are still quite terrifying.
Even the current old man of the Chen family is a big shot who resigned and returned to his hometown a few years ago. He holds a very high position in the Daxing Dynasty. Even the governor of Dayun County is a student of this old man of the Chen family. .
So regardless of wealth, just in terms of power, the Chen family is number one!
Therefore, the Chen family can really deal with the casino.
This is one of the reasons why Chen Wentai was deeply influenced by the Chen family and wanted to enter officialdom and follow a certain big shot.
Although part of the factor is obsession with that big shot.
But most of them are Chen Wentai who wants to prove his abilities and talents in the officialdom. He also has great ambitions.
It's just that the court of the Daxing Dynasty has undergone earth-shaking changes almost every year. For appointing him as an official of the Daxing Dynasty, the old man of the Chen family might have been able to do it, but now, it is extremely difficult!
Because the political rules of the Daxing Dynasty are changing!
However, what troubled Chen Wentai was that Wang Mo said——
As long as he can take down the casino, it will be a great merit. Maybe he can take advantage of this opportunity to rise to the top.
Moreover, Wang Mo also said that maybe sometimes, when people abandon him, it is not really abandonment, but maybe they are paying attention in secret. When the time comes, they will naturally take notice of Chen Wentai and take him away.
This is similar to doing business. You have to show your talents and value in order to be respected by others.
Moreover, Wang Mo wanted him to understand one thing, that is, being an official in the Daxing Dynasty, was he really serving someone? Or do you want to become an official for the sake of your own ambitions and the sake of the world?
Especially Wang Mo's last words shocked Chen Wentai deeply and made him fall into deep thinking.
Yes, he was too obsessed with pursuing that person's footsteps before, and used many methods to attract him.
But in fact, after following that person's footsteps, even if you enter that person's subordinates, what you want to do coincides with what he has in mind. In this case, why not do it for yourself first, and do everything else. No need to think about it? Let everything take its course?
Thinking of this, Chen Wentai felt like he had an epiphany.
Even when he came back to his senses, he had already walked back to Chen's house.
"Wentai, where have you been? Are your affairs more important than the marriage arranged for you at home?"
Chen Wentai's father, a middle-aged man with an elegant temperament but a calm and dignified face, was looking at him coldly, as if he hated iron but was unable to make steel.
Chen Wentai was stunned for a moment, and then sighed: "Dad, who is the girl this time?"
When he heard this, Chen Wentai's father, Chen Xuanzhi, was also stunned.
Because Chen Wentai is considered one of the few people in Tianqing City who has not yet married after his age, especially his talent is second to none in Tianqing City, and he is the young master of the Chen family. Such a highly valuable status , but still haven't gotten married even beyond their age, and are even extremely resistant to marriage at home.
This gave Chen Xuanzhi a headache, but he still persisted in finding a marriage contract for his son.
This time, he thought that Chen Wentai was going out to escape the engagement. When he came back, he thought that he and his son would break up again, but now it seems that his son did not resist?
I don’t know if it’s an illusion!
He even thought of certain results, which made Chen Xuanzhi's majestic eyes look a little worried, and he asked in a low voice: "You kid, what's going on?"
Chen Wentai looked at his father and suddenly smiled: "It's nothing, I just suddenly figured out something!"
He laughed at himself inwardly.
Because of Wang Mo's words, he looked outside the situation he was in and found that some things were too beautiful. He thought he was really ridiculous.
I have been obsessed with it for so long, but it is meaningless.
So much time wasted.
Seeing this, Chen Xuanzhi felt relieved, nodded, returned to his strict father's expression, and said calmly: "Well, just think about it, the marriage arranged for you this time is the daughter of the Yun family in Dayun County. I heard that the girl is gentle, virtuous, well-educated, and a true lady of the family. Moreover, the Yun family is the leading salt merchant in Dayun County, and her uncle is the official salt clerk of Dayun County!"
"Wentai, my father knows that you want to enter the officialdom, so this is an opportunity..."
Before he finished speaking, he saw Chen Wentai shaking his head and refusing: "Father, I want to enter the officialdom and show my ambitions, but if I rely on this method, what is the difference between me and other wastes who use connections to get money from the emperor? ?”
"Father, when I reach the age, I can get married, but it must not be because of this!"
Chen Wentai said firmly.
Chen Xuanzhi sighed: "I know your kid is very stubborn, so let's do whatever you want!"
"In one month, come with me to the Yun family in Dayun County to propose marriage!"
Hearing this, Chen Wentai suddenly said: "Father, it's okay for me to go. I wonder if you can agree to me a condition?"
Hearing this, Chen Xuanzhi showed displeasure: "My father has finally found a marriage for you. Not only are you not grateful, but you also want to negotiate terms with me. Are you so reluctant to go just once?"
"Forget it, tell me, what are the conditions?"
Chen Xuanzhi was actually very happy because Chen Wentai relented and his old Chen family lineage could finally continue.
Now don't let Chen Wentai say a condition, even if it is ten or a hundred, he may refuse it on the surface, but secretly he will try his best to agree.
Seeing Chen Xuanzhi like this, Chen Wentai thought about it and said, "I think..."
"I want a casino in Tianqing City, it doesn't exist!"
