Chapter 305: Keeping an Appointment

Going to an Appointment

Tang Wen was very surprised by Ye Zhiyu's invitation. What Tang Wen could not have imagined was that Ye Zhiyu would choose a place called "boudoir" for the meeting.

"Old Zhou, do you know about this boudoir? Why would you meet someone in such a place?" Tang Wen turned his head and asked Zhou Xu.

Zhou Xu was surprised and said, "Boss, this boudoir is an incredible place. It is said that it is a place specially used by the Ye family for unmarried women to live. It has never been open to men."

"Oh? There is such a place?" Tang Wen was very surprised.

Zhou Xu nodded and continued: "The legendary twelve golden hairpins live here, and it is said that the people responsible for training are all "female officials" in the palace before."

"Is it so awesome?"

Zhou Xu: "Yes, boss, the Ye family relied on the maids trained by this female official to grow bigger and stronger step by step. It can be said that the Ye family can have what it is today, and this female official has made an indelible contribution."

In order to better "settle" this female official, and to provide a good place for future "maids", the Ye family spent a huge amount of money to build a "boudoir" to accommodate these women.

Including some women from the Ye family's collateral branches waiting for marriage, they all live in the boudoir before they are sure of their husband's family. And it is clearly stipulated that once the "Shou Gong Sha" on the hand disappears, they must leave.

Since the establishment of the "boudoir", no men other than the Ye family have ever entered it. It is not an exaggeration to say that this place is the "foundation" of the Ye family.

Tang Wen is curious, why did Ye Zhiyu choose this place to meet this time?

Zhou Xu explained: "The Ye family has been in a bit of a "trouble" recently. Not only are they being coveted by the other three families, but it is said that everyone is wavering about the heirs of the Ye family."

"Did Ye Tian threaten Ye Zhiyu's status as the heir?" Tang Wen asked curiously. Although Ye Tian's ability to make money recently is good, for such a big family, your status is not determined by how much money you make.

The order of seniority is important to big families.

Unless, Tang Wen suddenly remembered something and asked hurriedly: "Have the other three families made any big moves recently?"

Zhou Xu was stunned and said: "No, recently only the old man of the Jiang family issued a secret order, and the other two families have not made any moves for the time being."

"That's strange, why does the Ye family suddenly feel so much crisis?" Tang Wen was very puzzled. You know, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. Although the Ye family has lost recently, its foundation is still there.

Unless, unless there is a problem with the foundation.

The foundation of the Ye family is undoubtedly the old man of the Ye family. Unlike the other three families, the Ye family is the only one that does not have a successor in the pyramid of 36 people.

That is to say, after the "loss of power" of the old man Ye, the situation of the Ye family is very bad. The three families are more or less linked to the 36 people or have direct relationships, except the Ye family.

Except for the old man Ye, the second and third generations of the Ye family are all on the "business route". On the surface, this is a correct choice, but it is very disadvantageous in the "human relationship" society of China.

Especially recently, the actions of the Jiang family are a bit "mysterious". Thinking of the fact that the Hua family dared to compete with the Ye family. The doorway here is very clear.

The Ye family may lose power.

Thinking of this, Tang Wen finally understood why the old man Ye would take the initiative to lower his posture. He wanted to find a "big tree" for the Ye family.

Originally, after the marriage between the Ye family and the Hua family, the second generation of the Hua family was a backup option among the 36 families. With such a relationship, the Ye family's business in the south could still go smoothly.

However, with the "breakdown" of the relationship between the two families, this idea is a bit unrealistic. So the Ye family is now in urgent need of someone who can cover the Ye family, otherwise the Ye family will fall into an irreversible situation once the old man of the Ye family passes away.

"Is there no second generation of the Ye family who has come to power?" Tang Wen was very puzzled. Logically speaking, the first thing the old man of the Ye family should do after he comes down is to support a successor.

But surprisingly, the second and third generations of the Ye family are almost all engaged in business, and the relationship with the upper class is completely based on the afterglow of the old man of the Ye family.

If it weren't for the "female official", it is estimated that the Ye family would never be comparable to the other three families. And it is said that the current old man Ye is not in good health.

However, these are not things that Tang Wen needs to worry about. What Tang Wen is concerned about now is what this legendary "boudoir" looks like.

At 6 pm, after Tang Wen's plane landed in Hangzhou County, he got on the Rolls-Royce sent by the Ye family to pick him up and drove towards the ancestral home of the Ye family.

It must be said that the mansions of big families are really not "comparable" to some rich people. The Rolls-Royce slowly drove into a manor of Suzhou Garden.

"Tsk tsk, it's still these big family people who know how to enjoy. Look at this manor, with small bridges and flowing water, birds singing and flowers blooming." Tang Wen sighed as he looked at the scene outside the car.

This kind of manor is not bought with money. These are the "ancestral homes" of big families like them, and the meaning is no less than some old houses.

However, even Tang Wen's Yan Family Garden is dwarfed by this manor. The two are not at the same level at all.

Zhou Xu explained: "This manor is said to have been the emperor's palace. The Ye family bought this manor a long time ago and has always used it as an ancestral home."

"Tsk tsk, it's still that the "foundation" of a family like theirs that has been passed down for a long time is sufficient." Tang Wen snickered.

It is said that the mansion of the Sun family, which has been passed down for a long time, is even more outrageous than this. The Sun family has been in existence since the Three Kingdoms, and its foundation can be imagined.

And unlike the Ye family, they are a real "inherited" family. There are 36 seats in the second generation, and there are even more 36 seats in the third generation, not to mention their "industries".

Among the four major consortiums, the top one is the Jiang family, followed by the Sun family. As for the other two, at best, they are just a more powerful consortium.

The ancestral home of a "consortium family" like the Ye family is so "powerful", so it can be imagined that the Jiang family and the Sun family are even more powerful. Led by the servants, Tang Wen and his party headed towards their destination.

"Young Master Wen, we meet again." After Tang Wen and his party passed through a courtyard, they finally saw Ye Zhiyu, the person who invited this trip.

Although he knew that the man opposite had a grudge against him for stealing his wife, Ye Zhiyu's smile was very bright. People who didn't know him would think that the two were "old friends" who had not seen each other for a long time.

"Tsk tsk, the eldest son of the Ye family invited me so kindly. I have to give him face, right?" Tang Wen replied with a smile. It is said that you should not hit a smiling person, but it is hard to say what will happen next.

"Young Master Wen, please come this way. My father heard that you came to my humble home and wanted to see you."

"Oh? The face of the head of the Ye family must be given. Please lead the way."
