Chapter 2856

In the afternoon, An Qishan, accompanied by his eldest son An Chongqiu and second son An Kaifeng, went to Yan Jing secretly with Sun Zhidong.

Ye Chen did not return to his home at Tang Chen Yi Pin immediately, but went to his villa next door, and then called Hong Changqing, the Hong Heavenly Master who was responsible for martial arts teaching here, and asked him to notify Chen Zekai and Hong Wu to come here to meet him.

Originally, Ye Chen was even somewhat worried about whether Chen Zekai would also disappear inexplicably.

After all, Tang Tang Sihai, as the head butler of the entire Ye family, had another master behind him. Then Chen Zekai, as the Ye family's spokesperson in Jin Ling and Tang Tang Sihai's direct subordinate, was very likely also arranged by someone deliberately.

But fortunately, Chen Zekai was still at Xiangxieli.

The moment he saw Chen Zekai, Ye Chen felt slightly relieved.

To be honest, knowing that Tang Tang Sihai had another master, he felt somewhat lost in his heart.

On one hand, Tang Tang Sihai was once his father's most loyal subordinate. Although he was not qualified to make him loyal to the Ye family, his behavior did indeed make Ye Chen feel a slight psychological gap;

On the other hand, Ye Chen had almost unconditional trust in Tang Tang Sihai before. After all, he had worked diligently to protect him for so many years, and after coming to Jin Ling to meet him, he had always given him unconditional support.

However, only today did he know that the person he truly worked for was not the Ye family, nor himself. How could Ye Chen not feel lost in his heart?

Now he was most afraid that there were other people around him who were the same as Tang Tang Sihai, most afraid that the mysterious person had been planting various eyes and ears around him.

Chen Zekai and Hong Wu were both two subordinates he recognized when he just took back his status as the young master of the Ye family, and they were also two subordinates he trusted very much. If they also had problems, the blow to Ye Chen would definitely be greater.

More than ten minutes later, Chen Zekai and Hong Wu, who were practicing martial arts here, ran to Ye Chen's villa.

After entering the door, Chen Zekai said very respectfully: "Young Master, when did you come back? Why didn't you notify us?"

"Yes, Master Ye!" Hong Wu also said busily: "If you had notified us, we would have gone to the airport to pick you up!"

Ye Chen smiled slightly, waved his hand and said: "I only stayed for one day this time, and I have to leave tonight, so I didn't notify others."

Chen Zekai asked curiously: "Young Master, where are you going in such a hurry?"

"Going to the United States," Ye Chen said casually, and immediately asked Chen Zekai: "Old Chen, how much do you know about Butler Tang?"

When saying this, Ye Chen quietly released a little spiritual energy, giving Chen Zekai a psychological suggestion to let him answer everything truthfully.

"Butler Tang?" Chen Zekai didn't feel anything unusual, just thought for a moment and said truthfully: "Back to Young Master, although Butler Tang is my direct superior, after all, every province, municipality, and overseas has spokespersons for the Ye family. I am just one of hundreds of spokespersons for the Ye family. Before, I could only see Butler Tang at the annual reporting meeting, so I didn't have much contact."

Ye Chen nodded gently. It seems that Chen Zekai and Tang Tang Sihai were not on the same boat.

Ye Chen used the same method to ask Hong Wu: "Hong Wu, before knowing me, did you know Tang Tang Sihai?"

"Don't know..." Hong Wu shook his head repeatedly and mocked himself: "Master Ye, before knowing you, I was just an old gangster with some fame in Jin Ling. I couldn't even climb up to Chen Zong, let alone the head butler of the Ye family..."

Seeing this, Ye Chen felt relieved.

Subsequently, he said to Chen Zekai: "Old Chen, Butler Tang left the Ye family for a period of time. During this period, the position of the head butler of the Ye family is vacant. I want you to temporarily replace Butler Tang's position. I wish Butler Tang will return in the future, then you will return the position to him and be his deputy. If he doesn't return in the future, then you will sit in this position forever."

Chen Zekai was surprised and said busily: "Young Master... my business has never been out of the province. I just barely figured out the things in my hands. You let me replace Butler Tang's position, I... I don't have that ability..."

Ye Chen asked back: "Didn't Butler Tang climb up step by step?"

"Yes..." Chen Zekai said awkwardly: "Butler Tang climbed for ten or twenty years before climbing up. My ability is much worse than his, and my qualifications are afraid that I can't convince the public."

Ye Chen waved his hand: "I am the head of the Ye family. Whoever I let do the position of the head butler of the Ye family naturally has this qualification. It depends on whether you want to do it yourself."

"This..." Chen Zekai fell into a contradiction.

For him, Butler Tang's position was the theoretical peak of his career.

Originally, he didn't dare to covet that he could reach Tang Tang Sihai's height in the future.

However, after being appreciated and reused by Ye Chen, he sometimes felt that as long as he followed Ye Chen wholeheartedly and worked hard, Ye Chen might give him this opportunity in the future.

But that must be after he was over 50 years old, having accumulated enough experience and knowledge to hope for it.

But he never dreamed that Ye Chen suddenly gave him this opportunity to reach the sky in one step.

The only thing he was worried about now was that he was afraid his ability was not enough to be competent.

However, when he saw Ye Chen's firm eyes, he knew that Ye Chen could make this decision, which not only represented recognition of his ability but also represented trust in his loyalty.

So, he gritted his teeth and said loudly: "Young Master, thanks to your appreciation, my subordinate is willing to go all out and try it. If my subordinate's ability is not enough, I will definitely resign to the Young Master at the first time. Please don't force it then!"

Ye Chen said appreciatively: "Don't worry, if your ability doesn't reach it, I won't appoint people by nepotism, and I will definitely replace you at the first time."

After saying that, he looked at Hong Wu again and said: "Hong Wu, you have been with me for a long time. After Old Chen becomes the head butler of the Ye family, the spokesperson for the whole Jin Ling and the whole province will be yours. Are you willing?"

Hong Wu was overjoyed and said busily: "Back to Master Ye, the subordinate is willing! The subordinate is the same as Chen Zong, and will definitely go all out. But if the subordinate's ability is not enough, please don't force it!"

"Good!"

Ye Chen nodded slightly and said: "You two prepare. Old Chen, after handing over the work in Jin Ling to Hong Wu, go to Yan Jing as soon as possible. I will say hello to the Old Master in advance. At that time, let the Old Master help you take office. But that will be hard for you to stay in Yan Jing for a period of time first, and sort out the mess left by Tang Tang Sihai. At that time, you can take part of the work to Jin Ling to do, and you can also continue to stay here to learn martial arts."

Chen Zekai was surprised to hear that he could continue to learn martial arts, and said busily: "Thank you, Young Master! The subordinate will definitely practice martial arts on the premise of ensuring that all work lands perfectly!"

"Good." Ye Chen smiled: "You hurry up and hand over the work. I'm going back to Tang Chen Yi Pin!"
