The demon world I designed

"Go and check to see which family in Nanhai City is related to the ship from Jiangnan. Is there really anyone coming to visit relatives? If you find out clearly, come back and report to me immediately."

"Yes." The man in black who was ordered hurriedly left in response. On the other hand, the steward who was responsible for handing over the cargo of the Jiangnan ship was slightly startled and said cautiously: "Master Zhuo, is this necessary? Didn't I read it just now? Just an ordinary merchant ship?”

"Ordinary merchant ships don't mean you can't hide experts in them. The situation now is unusual. My father is not in the Chen family. The heads of other families and most of the elders have gone to Yundu. Even the more powerful young disciples have followed. Be more cautious. It’s also to try not to make mistakes, isn’t it?”

The butler heard this and quickly handed over his hand: "Master Zhuo is still thoughtful."

Several big housekeepers of the Chen family still respect Chen Zhuo, the third son, because he is indeed a very capable person.

Although he does not have the talent of a warlock, in terms of personnel management, dealing with people, and capturing business opportunities, the big housekeeper feels that even the old housekeepers of big business firms can't give in too much. Moreover, the young master has a good command of his subordinates and can do better than the head of the family in some aspects. With both kindness and power, the people under the young master's control of the business firm were docile and obedient. This kind of ability is rare.

It's a pity that this world is not fair. No matter how good you are in these aspects, it is not as useful as having a warlock talent.

After ordering his men, Chen Zhuo went home directly in the carriage. The house the Chen family bought in Nanhai was quite luxurious. The South China Sea was hot, and wealthy families now like to place cold jade from the south of the Yangtze River in their rooms. But like the Chen family, , there are indeed only a few who even place cold jade in each courtyard to cool down. Although the Warlock family has a transcendent status, they still have to pay attention to rules when doing business, especially since a large number of families gave up their industries in the capital and came to the South China Sea. Many of them were not able to adapt, resulting in a shortage of funds. .

Although the resources of the Dragon Palace are not lacking, the quality of life has dropped significantly. The Chen family is one of the few whose quality has not declined. Under Chen Zhuo's management, Nanhai's business has become very popular in just one year. The rise of water has also allowed the Chen family to maintain a more luxurious life than in the capital. With the courtyard covered with cold jade like this, only the Chen family in the entire South China Sea can be as luxurious.

"Why did Zhuo'er come back so late? Are you hungry? I asked Qingju to make soup and quickly sat down to rest."

The speaker was a beautiful woman, who was Chen Zhuo's mother, the eldest lady of the Chen family. Since the eldest lady was born into a family of warlocks, she had a long lifespan. Although she was already in her fifties, she looked like she was in her early twenties. The difference is that in the eyes of outsiders, Chen Zhuo is even older and heavier than his mother. Some people may believe him if he is said to be the eldest lady's brother.

This is also the reason why in most aristocratic families, the relationship between the untalented legitimate son and the mistress is normal. By the time they reach the age of fifty or sixty, the untalented son is already an old man as a mortal. The mistress may look about the same age as your granddaughter. This Under such circumstances, I was too embarrassed to call my mother.

Fortunately, God did not give him a dead end

Chen Zhuo touched his chest, then smiled and said: "Mom, just eat it yourself, what are you waiting for me to do?"

"Your father and your two brothers have gone out. If you don't come to accompany me, can I eat alone?" The other party rolled his eyes at him, then ordered his men to arrange the dishes and chopsticks, and then said: "Those businesses at the dock, you Just let the servants keep an eye on it, do you need to go in person?"

"It's not that I keep an eye on it every day. I go there once or twice occasionally. Otherwise, the people below will inevitably feel sluggish when they find out that there is no supervision from above. Moreover, a shipload of Jiangnan's goods arrived today, so I just happened to go and have a look. Mother also knows that Jiangnan's The goods are valuable. If you grab them quickly, you may be stared at by others. "

"Oh?" The mistress's eyes lit up: "Do you have the latest ice jade? I heard that the latest ice rain in the south of the Yangtze River can not only cool down but also dehumidify. Oops, you don't know. This is the South China Sea, and the humidity is heavy. I can't even sleep. During the day, I can rely on my spiritual power to expel the moisture, but at night, I can't do anything about it when I fall asleep. The next day, my back hurts. "

"This is not available for the time being." Chen Zhuo smiled bitterly and said: "This time, all the goods that came here are wine, tea, and the latest jade and some handicrafts are not available yet. However, my mother discovered that I had already ordered the ship to come. Try to bring some of the latest ice jade over, so it won’t be a problem for mother and father to use it first.”

"Get one for yourself." The mistress said quickly: "You are no better than us. Your body and bones also need maintenance. You are not married yet. You"

"Why did mother mention this again?"

The two chatted and ate dinner like this for almost half an hour. Chen Zhuo was very patient until his mother left, then he sighed slightly, but there was a hint of coldness in his eyes.

At that moment, his temperament suddenly changed, completely different from his usual gentle and gentle style, and when he looked in the direction his mother was leaving, there was even a hint of viciousness.

"Your mother treats you well, why are you so resentful?"

In his mind, a gentle female voice came.

"Not bad?" Chen Zhuo sneered: "The good things have been taken by the eldest and second brothers. If I didn't have any talent as a warlock before, then the woman could say that there was nothing I could do, but what about this time? She obviously knew that you can Change my destiny, but she still gave the opportunity to my eldest brother. He already had so many resources and that qualification to become a Dragon Vein Warlock. My mother didn't think it was enough. She wanted to give him this opportunity, so she couldn't wait to give up all the good things. Give it all to big brother.”

But he didn't think about it, what about his other sons also need that opportunity?

Very suddenly, the female voice suddenly became serious: "Something happened!"

"Hmm?" Chen Zhuo was stunned. He had never heard her tone so serious since he had been with this thing. He hurriedly asked, "What's wrong?"

"Something happened to the compatriots parasitic on your eldest brother. His Majesty the Dragon King wants you to go."

"Okay!" Chen Zhuo nodded and was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something. He then went to the door and ordered the housekeeper, "Has the person who was sent to inquire about the relatives of the Jiangnan ship not come back yet?"

"No. What's wrong, Master Zhuo?" The housekeeper was a little surprised when he heard this: "The Jiangnan cargo ship belongs to the Zhou family, and their cousins ​​are from the Li family in the east of the city, which is far away from the dock. It is impossible to get the news so quickly."

"I know, let him wait for me in the mansion when he comes back." Chen Zhuo shook his head and left. "It's Master Zhuo."

After leaving Chen's house, Chen Zhuo said directly: "Let your secret hands monitor the Li family directly, and wait for instructions at any time. If there is any situation, take action directly!"

"Do you suspect that the people from Jiangnan are not simple?"

"They just came, and something happened on the other side. It's a coincidence." Chen Zhuo whispered: "Although it may be a coincidence, in this situation, it's better to kill the wrong person than to let him go."

"What a charming man." The voice in my mind laughed foolishly.

"There is a problem"

Ao Zhen, who had arrived at Li's mansion at this time, smelled an unusual smell and looked around solemnly.

"What's the problem?" Murong Yunji looked around in confusion. Although her strength has not increased much because she joined the Thunder Department, she is still an extraordinary strongman after all. At this time, she didn't feel anything when the other party said there was a problem. For a while, her heart sank.

After returning to Jiangnan, she found that some little guys could be on par with her. This feeling of being constantly surpassed is really uncomfortable. She feels that she seems to have fallen behind.

"The aquatic creatures have arrived." Ao Zhen looked into the distance and said, "A large number of aquatic creatures have arrived. It seems that there are at least tens of thousands of them!"
