Chapter 1680

No one expected that the elderly Old Master Ye would suddenly say such a thing like a thunderclap.

Once these words were spoken, everyone knew that Ye Changkong must have gone to the Old Master to complain behind his back and wanted to say bad things about Ye Chen to sow discord, but he didn't expect to be slapped by the Old Master.

What was even more shocking was that Old Master Ye would suddenly announce that he would officially pass the position of the Ye family head to Ye Chen!

At this instant, Ye Chen's subordinates and friends were all extremely excited, almost cheering out loud.

And the vast majority of the Ye family members had mournful faces, looking even worse than the moment Wan Pojun had Lu Haotian bring a coffin to their door.

While the Old Master was in power, each of them could get a lot of benefits from the Ye family's business, plus huge annual dividends and bonuses, and everyone lived very comfortably.

However, everyone knew that once Ye Chen became the head, it would basically be over.

With Ye Chen's iron-blooded personality, how could he let them get benefits? He would definitely be like Zhu Yuanzhang back then, keeping a very tight watch on the finances and not leaving them any extra space.

Ye Changkong was even more grief-stricken and indignant, choking in his heart: "What kind of nonsense is this? I kindly ran over to remind the Old Master that power was slipping away, and as a result, the old man slapped me in public and gave the position of head directly to Ye Chen. Did he take the wrong medicine?"

Looking at Ye Changkong, Ye Zhongquan thought to himself: "Originally, I was snatched of the position of head by Chen'er without a sound, and I didn't even earn the name of voluntarily abdicating and yielding the position. I was just worrying about where to find an opportunity to promote my relationship with Chen'er, and you delivered yourself to the door. Isn't this like someone delivering a pillow when I'm sleepy?!"

"Even if you are my own son, so what? Do you think I don't know what kind of abacus you are playing? I knew about you having Ye Feng buy mourning clothes overnight last night! You bastard, you wanted to wait for me, this old bone, to be slaughtered by the Cataclysmic Front, and then kneel down to beg for mercy and recognize a thief as your father, right? From now on, with Chen'er in charge of the Ye family, you'll have a hard time!"

Ye Changkong didn't know what the Old Master was thinking; he only knew one thing: he was afraid he was going to be finished.

At this time, hearing that the Old Master wanted to pass the position of head directly to him, Ye Chen was also slightly surprised.

But after thinking about it carefully, he roughly figured out what the Old Master was thinking.

The reason he said that to Wan Pojun just now was to directly state that he would be responsible for the affairs of the Ye family, which was equivalent to becoming the actual person in power.

The Old Master must have known that there was no way to turn things around, and now taking the initiative to yield the position to show favor could still earn a favor.

In the end, they were all shrewd people.

As for Ye Changkong, he must have been used as a stepping stone by the Old Master.

He stepped on Wan Pojun to get to the top this time, and the Old Master stepped on Ye Changkong to step down. It had to be said that they had the same effect.

Thus, Ye Chen said without hesitation, "With me in the Ye family from now on, we will definitely be able to continue to develop and create brilliance again!"

Ye Zhongquan stepped forward, grabbed Ye Chen's hand, and said excitedly, "Chen'er, from now on, all affairs of the Ye family will be decided by you alone. I believe that in your hands, the Ye family will definitely be able to stand at the pinnacle of the world!"

Ye Chen nodded heavily and said earnestly, "I will naturally do my utmost!"

After saying this, he looked at the uncles and brothers of the Ye family and said indifferently, "Moreover, the Ye family has lived a peaceful life for too many years, and many people's bones have become soft. I must take this opportunity of the ancestor worship ceremony to give them a good calcium supplement!"

Subsequently, Ye Chen said to He Hongsheng, "Old Mr. He, please help me keep a close eye on everyone in my Ye family. Whoever dares to secretly throw things out of their bodies, especially things like mourning clothes, tie them up on the spot!"

Most of the Ye family members were terrified when they heard this.

Because they still had mourning clothes hidden in their clothes. The process of Ye Chen subduing the Cataclysmic Front just now was too shocking, and they had completely forgotten about the mourning clothes.

Being reminded by Ye Chen, they remembered that they were still carrying a bomb.

These people were suddenly panicked, not knowing how Ye Chen planned to deal with them next.

At this time, Ye Chen didn't pay attention to the Ye family anymore, but looked at the soldiers of the Cataclysmic Front kneeling in front of him.

Among the soldiers, there was also a shivering old man mixed in. Although this old man was also kneeling on the ground, he kept looking around, seemingly looking for an opportunity to slip away.

This person was the head of the Su family, Su Chengfeng.

Su Chengfeng's intestines were almost green with regret, and he lamented in his heart: "If I had known that this Wan Pojun was so unbearable in front of Ye Chen, even if they invited me to Mount Ye Ling with an eight-man sedan chair, I would never have come..."

"As a result, I ran so far wearing mourning clothes myself, and ended up jumping into a fire pit..."

"Now I don't know how to end this, and I don't know if I can find an opportunity to slip away quietly..."

Just when Su Chengfeng was feeling depressed, Ye Chen pointed at him, who was also kneeling in the crowd wearing mourning clothes and making up the numbers, and said indifferently, "Su Chengfeng, you old dog, don't think about slipping away. Kneel properly, I still have to settle accounts with you slowly!"

Hearing this, Su Chengfeng begged in fear, "Mr. Ye... Mr. Ye... this... this has nothing to do with me, I... I just came to pay respects to Wan Liancheng and his wife, I don't have any other intentions!"

Ye Chen frowned: "Come, explain to me, why did you come to my Ye family's ancestral grave to pay respects to Wan Liancheng and his wife?"

"I... I..." Su Chengfeng suddenly didn't know how to explain, trembling all over, as if he had suddenly developed Parkinson's.

Ye Chen questioned him: "What? You dared to run to my Ye family's ancestral grave wearing mourning clothes, but you don't have the guts to admit that you came to watch the show?"

Su Chengfeng had a mournful face and argued forcefully, "Mr. Ye, you really misunderstood me, I didn't mean that..."

Ye Chen mocked, "You didn't expect to run over to watch a big show, only for the stage to collapse, right? I ask you, do you regret it now?"

Su Chengfeng's expression was uglier than if his father had died, and he stammered, "Mr. Ye... I... I really didn't come to watch the show... my son Su Shoudao and Wan Liancheng and his wife were very close, so I came to pay respects out of affection and righteousness, but I didn't expect these things to happen... This is all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding..."

"A misunderstanding?" Ye Chen asked coldly: "At a time like this, you are still trying to argue, I see that the IQ of you, the head of the Su family, is not high either!"

Su Chengfeng wanted to die, lamenting in his heart: "This is not a question of my IQ, it's that I really don't have any good reasons..."

Seeing his uncomfortable expression, Ye Chen pointed to the Cataclysmic Front soldier beside Su Chengfeng and said coldly, "You, slap his mouth hard!"

"Understood!" After saying that, the man grabbed Su Chengfeng by the collar and slapped him several times, left and right.

Su Chengfeng had never suffered such treatment, and he cried out, "I am the head of the Su family! I am an elite in the global business world! I am a famous person in the country and even the whole world! How can you be so presumptuous to me!"

Ye Chen sneered and said indifferently, "Head of the Su family? Sorry, you were before, but you are not anymore!"
