Rather than saying that Xie Zhan accompanied Chen Baozhu back to her parents' home, it would be better to say that he took her back to her parents' home along the way.
Originally, Xie Zhan had to go to the Chen Mansion almost every day to help Chen Jiaye handle the affairs of the Chen family. And he worked rain or shine and never slacked off for a day.
Chen Jiaye was very satisfied with him and felt that it was the right thing for the Chen family to recruit him as their son-in-law.
When they arrived at the Chen Mansion, it was almost noon, and the Chen Mansion was setting up a meal, so they sat down to eat together.
There was a fish dish in the meal prepared by Chen's mother, which was placed right in front of Chen Baozhu. She smelled the fishy smell and couldn't help feeling nauseated.
Not long after, the doctor invited diagnosed Chen Baozhu to be more than one month pregnant.
Everyone present was very happy when they heard this.
After the meal, Chen Jiaye and Xie Zhan went to the study to discuss matters.
As soon as they entered and the door was closed, Chen Jiaye couldn't wait to ask, "Azhan, what's going on over there on Xiaozhuya Island?"
Xie Zhan came back from Zhuya Island last night. In fact, Chen Jiaye had already learned the results from his cousin Chen Jiayu who went to Zhuya Island with him, but he still wanted to hear Xie Zhan say it in person.
Xie Zhan knew that he was asking about the gold mine discovered in the Chen family's territory on Zhuya Island.
For some reason, he was very knowledgeable about gold mining.
When he first got the Chen family's information about Xiaozhuya Island, he felt something was wrong. When arranging the venue later, he personally went to Xiaozhuya Island, and sure enough he discovered a gold mine there.
After Xie Zhan conducted on-site surveys, he concluded that the gold mine was not very large and of average quality. He didn't hide the matter and told Chen Jiaye, thus gaining his complete trust.
After Chen Jiaye learned the news, he secretly sent someone to conduct a secret survey, but the answer he got was that the quality of the gold mine was not ideal, and the entire mine would not be very large.
Chen Jiaye was not satisfied with this answer, thinking that Xie Zhan had discovered the gold mine, so he arranged for Xie Zhan to follow him to Xiaozhuya Island for investigation.
In response to Chen Jiaye's question, Xie Zhan shook his head, "I can't tell, but Master Ma and others are experienced, so it shouldn't be wrong to listen to them, right?"
After Xie Zhan said this, he shut up. How to decide is entirely left to Chen Jiaye.
Chen Jiaye sighed in his heart, our children are so knowledgeable that they can even discover gold mines.
Looking at his family and then his youngest son, Chen Jiaye felt very heartbroken.
Fortunately, Xie Zhan is now his son-in-law, and he can also be regarded as his son-in-law. Thinking of this, Chen Jiaye felt a little relieved.
But Chen Jiaye only laughed for a moment. Thinking of Xiao Zhuya Island, he sighed, walked around the study with his hands behind his back.
At the beginning, Xie Zhan's plan for the Chen family required such a place to implement the plan.
At that time, he thought of Xiao Zhuya Island in Zhu Yazhou.
The plan had been formulated at that time. Xie Zhan went over to inspect the terrain and accidentally discovered a gold mine in their territory!
When Xie Zhan reported the situation, he had no idea that the Chen family's land on Zhuya Island would contain such a big surprise.
By the way, this place was found for the Chen family when Xue Guangxian was still there. At that time, Xue Guangxian strongly wanted them to take over Xiaozhuya Island, and he gave up other interests for this purpose.
God knows, he almost fainted when he learned about this big surprise.
Unfortunately, the gold mine is not large and the quality is not ideal.
So, what should he choose next?
Discovering a gold mine and submitting it to the court is also a meritorious service.
But because the gold mine is small and of poor quality, even if it is reported to the emperor, the credit will not be great.
So, are they now directly reporting the gold mine discovered on Zhuya Island to the court? Or are we going to carry out the original plan and just replace the bait with a more fragrant little gold mine?
Now their plan can be completely changed to using the gold mine of Zhuya Island to lure the Zhu family into taking a sum of money.
After the goods and silver are settled, later, he will bring the matter of Zhu Jia's private gold mining to the emperor in order to achieve meritorious service. When the emperor disposes of the Zhu family, the Chen family, which is ready to go, can use lightning speed to encroach on the power zone and market share vacated after the fall of the Zhu family, thereby strengthening the Chen family.
If the plan goes well, the Chen family can take over half of the Zhu family, and they will be comparable to the Gu and Lu families.
Chen Jiaye didn't know that his original plan was just part of Xie Zhan's plan.
Xie Zhan sat aside, watching his eyes, nose, and heart, and occasionally took a sip of tea. On the surface, the matter had nothing to do with him and was completely left to Chen Jiaye to make the decision.
However, he was counting silently in his heart.
Xie Zhan was betting on Chen Jiaye's ambition.
Chen Jiaye quickly made a decision, "Just execute it as planned."
Hearing this, Xie Zhan's heart burst into bloom. It was obvious that he had made the right bet.
"Currently all the pre-launch plans have been arranged."
"Then let's start the plan. I'll leave the rest to you. You know what kind of result I want."
Xie Zhan: "Don't worry, father-in-law, my son-in-law will make arrangements. After this matter is settled, father-in-law must not forget his previous promise."
Chen Jiaye smiled and patted his shoulder, "Don't worry. You are my son-in-law and we are all part of the family. I will not treat you badly."
Suddenly, Chen Jiaye asked a very abrupt question, "I heard that you and Lu Yuan's legitimate daughter Lu Fei met alone at Jingci Temple?"
Xie Zhan frowned, "Ms. Zhao felt sick in her stomach that day. My mother said she had a collision. Later, my son-in-law accompanied his mother to Jingci Temple to seek a peace charm for her and the child in her belly."
"At that time, the horse in the carriage that Miss Lu was riding in was frightened. Seeing that the person was about to fall out of the carriage, my son-in-law had to ask someone to rescue him. After Miss Lu was rescued, she came to thank me. This is probably what happened."
Chen Jiaye nodded and let the matter pass, because he found out that this was indeed the case.
"But father-in-law, this matter was a mistake. I can use Lu Fei..." Xie Zhan roughly told him his next action.
Chen Jiaye nodded, "It's up to you. Everything depends on our plan."
When Xie Zhan came out of Chen Mansion, it was afternoon and the sun was dazzling.
Before walking out of Chen's house, he narrowed his eyes slightly and looked into the scorching sun. His eyes were as sharp as a foraging eagle.
