.”

Fang Che said in surprise: "The head of the Zhu family actually already has a grandson? He looks like he is only in his thirties, which really surprises me."

"Hahaha, Mr. Fang is joking."

Zhu Shaoyun said with some pride: "Don't look at my youth. In fact, I am already eighty-seven this year. I just take care of myself and practice martial arts, so I look younger."

"Oh, that's it, I really can't tell."

"Mr. Fang is making fun of me. Who doesn't know that you practitioners, even if you are hundreds or thousands of years old, still look like teenagers?"

"Master Zhu is right. For example, I am an immortal old monster."

"Hahaha... Mr. Fang is joking again. Mr. Fang's experience is already legendary. Mr. Fang's details. I just heard a few little girls say it in my ears. I don't know how many times. I am not afraid of Mr. Fang's jokes. Mr. Fang's deeds

Not to mention, I have almost memorized Mr. Fang’s genealogy.”

"Really? Hahaha..."

The seven or eight people following Zhu Shaoyun were also laughing.

Seeing Fang Che looking over, they all greeted him with a smile.

"These are all members of the family. This is my third brother. This is...this is...hahaha. We were gathering together just now to discuss things, but when they heard that Mr. Fang was coming, everyone became energetic and insisted on coming to see

Look at Mr. Fang, they are already very old, it is really rare to see them so excited."

Then he said to those people: "Now that you have seen Mr. Fang, are you satisfied? Why don't you leave quickly? You are so old, why don't you follow us in for tea?"

Blowing his beard and staring.

Immediately, seven or eight people smiled and greeted Fang Che, and then left.

Following Zhu Shaoyun to the living room, he actually went around again and came to a small and exquisite living room. It can be clearly seen that the furnishings inside are much more high-end than outside.

And the lighting is actually made of natural luminous pearls, paired with spiritual crystals.

The ground was actually covered with spirit animal skins. Although it was only level five, it was the most beautiful snow fox skin.

The tea set on the table is actually carved from a single piece of spiritual crystal.

Whether it's a teapot or a teacup.

The maid came in to make tea, but was kicked out by Zhu Shaoyun: "I am an honored guest today, and I will come in person."

As he spoke, he opened the cupboard carefully and took out the tea. Before it was soaked, a refreshing fragrance came out. It turned out to be spiritual tea!

"Mr. Fang, you are so generous in front of experts..."

Zhu Shaoyun laughed and started making tea.

Make three cups of tea very seriously.

"please."

"Master Zhu."

Fang Che has been watching him busy, and now it's finally time to talk. He doesn't go around in circles and says: "Master Zhu must know the method and purpose of our investigation. Come here today... Haha, I hope Master Zhu will cooperate."

"We must cooperate, we must cooperate!"

Zhu Shaoyun said: "Since Mr. Fang is here in person, Zhu knows what's going on. Please ask Mr. Fang to have some tea first. For those people who left just now, I have arranged for them to conduct family census, family financial statistics, and other...

…We have all gone back to prepare. Mr. Fang can check it whenever it is convenient for him."

"Including the entire family, I have ordered them not to go out. We will wait for Mr. Fang to complete the investigation before doing other things; even if there is a big matter, we are not allowed to go out."

"Everything has been arranged, Mr. Fang can rest assured."

Zhu Shaoyun said with a smile.

A calm one.

But after I found out it was Fang Che, I arranged everything in advance. He was polite and considerate, had enough etiquette, was enthusiastic enough, and was generous and open.

"Master Zhu is indeed the richest man, but with this ability, he is already surpassing more than 99% of the people in the world!"

Fang Che praised.

"Mr. Fang, you're welcome."

Zhu Shaoyun said: "How can we, the Zhu family, not express the kindness we receive from the Guardian? Mr. Fang and other adults work hard day and night, and pay countless amounts for the livelihood of the people within their jurisdiction, so that we ordinary people can live a peaceful life; Sir

When we come to your door, we naturally have to prepare everything, even if it saves you a little time, it will also make you less tired."

Fang Che nodded and said with emotion: "It's great if you can have this kind of heart. If the people in Baiyun Continent can be as sensible as the Zhu family master, it will be much easier for us to guard the main hall."

"Mr. Fang deserves the award."

"But no one else has to work."

Fang Che smiled and said, "I'll just ask the Zhu family master a few questions. The Zhu family master doesn't need to be restrained. You are already very old, and I feel uncomfortable looking at you."

"Hahaha...Mr. Fang, please tell me everything you know."

"The head of the Zhu family, which generation of the head of the Zhu family is he?"

"Counting from Emperor Gaozu, Zhu is the seventh generation."

"The seventh generation... Well, people in your family live long lives."

"Mr. Fang is joking; Mr. Fang is a well-informed person, and he will naturally understand that when wealth accumulates to a certain level, it cannot be preserved without force and background."

Zhu Shaoyun said: "So since Gaozu succeeded in starting a business, he began to look for famous teachers for his descendants. He also intermarryed and tried to find daughters with good qualifications from warrior families...so as to optimize the bloodline."

"In this way, generation after generation, everyone can live longer. In fact, if my grandfather hadn't gotten into trouble while practicing Qigong, I'm afraid I would still be outside taking care of things now."

"Humble."

Fang Che said: "Your family has not expanded much for more than a thousand years, but its business has grown bigger and bigger. It is indeed extraordinary."

Zhu Shaoyun smiled heartily and said: "Mr. Fang misunderstood this matter. As the business grows bigger, the family will also expand; but the situation of my family is different from other families. If the descendants are capable, they will be allocated to them individually."

He can take charge of a business line. Or, he can open up a business line by himself."

"As long as the business line is successful, then this business line belongs to him, and it is up to them to decide where to settle. As long as this business line is still nominally the Zhu family's, and how much profit must be turned over every year; for other operations, we will

It doesn’t matter.”

"So our descendants of the Zhu family have spread all over the mainland over the years, and some of them have even become martial arts families. But now, this place is just the ancestral home, or it can be said to be the headquarters. But in some places, it is actually somewhat different from the branches outside.

It’s just that this place is the inheritance of our ancestors, so it has always maintained a supreme position, that’s all.”

"I see."

Fang Che nodded.

Yun Jianqiu and Jing Xiuyun, who were drinking tea with him, also showed understanding expressions.

There is nothing wrong with these words.

"Then please ask the head of the Zhu family to provide the names of these family members outside, and then indicate which cities they are in. Just give me a copy."

Fang Che said naturally: "Isn't this difficult?"

Zhu Shaoyun's expression remained unchanged, but his eyes quickly shrank, and then he said with a smile on his face: "It's not difficult, it's just that this needs to be verified again."

"That's okay."

Fang Che smiled kindly and said, "It doesn't hurt to wait a few days."

Zhu Shaoyun felt a little at ease.

Fang Che then asked with a smile: "I just passed by the living room. That painting on the wall of the big living room is really powerful. This is the first time in Fang's life that he has seen such a majestic yet ethereal painting.

The painting, may I ask what the name of that painting is?"

Zhu Shaoyun was a lot more cautious and said: "The painting Mr. Fang mentioned was handed down from our ancestors. It has been hanging on the wall for so many years. It is called Heavenly Palace and Yuyu Qionglou."

"What a name."

Fang Che sighed: "It's just a painting, but when people see it, they think they have entered a land of gods. What a great painting! I really like this painting after seeing it."

Zhu Shaoyun smiled bitterly and said: "In fact, Zhu wanted to replace that painting a long time ago. However, it is a thing left by Emperor Gaozu and cannot be replaced easily. In fact, it is just a painting. It has been hanging for so many years. It should be replaced.

Already."

Jing Xiuyun and Yun Jianqiu looked at each other.

It was only now that they both realized that Fang Che and Zhu Shaoyun's words had actually been at odds with each other.

Fang Che said: "Such paintings are rare. Master Zhu, don't be nervous. I'm a civil servant. How can I do anything by force? Hahaha... I just really like it and want to see it more."

.”

"What a painting, what a painting."

Fang Che turned to Yun Jianqiu and the others and said, "Do you know what you need to see when looking at a painting?"

Without waiting for the two people to answer, he asked and answered himself: "When looking at paintings, most people see whether they are real or not, whether they are detailed or not; whether they look real or not. However, people who really understand painting will see something.

The artistic conception of the painting! That is a category beyond the brushstrokes, and that is the essence of a truly good painting!"

"The painting outside is definitely one of the best among paintings. It would have to be done by a master! It's such a good painting!"
