Returning to 84, hunting for wealth, one person feeding three families.

"Ye Chen, but the main reason we were able to drive Boss Lin away last time was because of that gun!"

"Last time, with that semi-automatic rifle, Boss Lin was no match for us. This time, with only hunting rifles, even if the four of us are tied together, we're still no match for Liu Zhen's gang!"

At a critical moment, Tian Cong stepped forward and made his debut.

Ye Chen calmly replied, "I've already thought this through. The gun we had last time was a gift from Uncle Li. Uncle Li is an old hunter with a lot of connections in the village."

"Before we take action, let's go ask Uncle Li if we can get in touch with another semi-automatic rifle."

"With this divine artifact, Liu Zhenlai's men will die in droves!"

In Ye Chen's plan, a good weapon is of paramount importance.

The four of them immediately agreed and went to the Li family's house.

Last time, Ye Chen entrusted Old Man Li to purchase and take care of the Clivia plants. Now, a month has passed, and Old Man Li has made a considerable investment.

In the backyard, Old Man Li turned the original open space into greenhouses.

It was filled with all kinds of clivia plants.

"Ye Chen, you're here?"

"Haven't seen you for a few days, and you really trust me with tens of thousands of yuan!"

"Quick, come and see! I specially acquired a treasure a couple of days ago. This is a Kao (King of Flowers) that I spent a fortune to get!"

When Old Man Li saw Ye Chen, he was exceptionally attentive and immediately led him into the greenhouse.

He led Ye Chen to a flowerpot with a showy air and said excitedly.

"Look, Ye Chen, this is a 'King of Flowers' that I bought in the provincial capital for two thousand yuan. This thing is so delicate, it's more particular than people."

"Ye Chen, I'm really going all out to buy these clivia plants this time. If they end up being a dud, don't blame me!"

Ye Chen invested a total of 70,000 yuan in the Clivia plant this time.

Old Li has been going to the market lately and has become particularly knowledgeable about clivia.

In his opinion, it's already quite an achievement that this thing can retain its value.

You can't make money unless it falls from the sky.

In order to maintain the relationship, I have no choice but to give them a heads-up in advance.

"Don't worry, Uncle Li, I'm entrusting you with these tens of thousands of yuan because I trust you!"

Ye Chen waved his hand and said confidently, "Uncle Li, it's already October, and winter is just around the corner. We should have news in another month."

"You'll see just how valuable these clivia plants really are then."

"Especially this king of flowers, I'm sure if you spend 2000 million to buy it now, it'll probably be worth a hundred times more later!"

Ye Chen was so confident because he had seen a picture of a flower king in his previous life.

After Changchun designated the clivia as its city flower, this "King of Flowers" was auctioned off and fetched a sky-high price of 300,000 yuan, even making it into the newspapers!

Ye Chen was certain that the flower king that Old Man Li bought was the same one that had been featured in the newspaper in his previous life.

Neither the pattern nor the details are off.

When the time comes, all I need to do is send this clivia to the auction at the right time, and based on my experience in my previous life, I can immediately make a fortune!

"A hundred times... wow, isn't that two hundred thousand?"

"Ye Chen, I know you have confidence in these clivias, but selling each plant for so much money is really a bit outrageous, isn't it?"

Old Li's mouth was slightly open, looking surprised.

I never expected that Ye Chen would dare to give the Clivia such a high evaluation.

Ye Chen smiled and shook his head, skipping over the topic.

"By the way, Uncle Li, I've come here this time because I need your help with something important."

"This isn't the place to talk. Let's go inside and talk."

The market for Clivia was something even Ye Chen would find hard to believe if he hadn't experienced it in his previous life.

The turning point has not yet arrived; saying too much will only make people think we're bragging.

Moreover, Ye Chen came here on official business, and Liu Zhen and his gang are hiding in the shadows, ready to make their move.

We must seize every moment!

"Ye Chen, what is it?"

A moment later, the two entered the inner room, and Old Man Li immediately pressed for an answer.

Ye Chen said in a deep voice, "Uncle Li, do you remember the gun you gave me last time?"

"What? Did someone find out?"

"No, Uncle Li, I already handed over the gun you gave me last time."

Ye Chen explained, "I've run into some trouble again and I'm thinking of getting another gun like that."

"You're of high seniority and have a wide network of connections, so I wanted to ask you if you know of any ways to get things done?"

Faced with this thorny problem, Uncle Li picked up his pipe and took a few deep drags.

Then he said softly, "This thing is something that can't be brought to light. Even if someone else has it, unless they're on a life-or-death level with you, they'd never tell you."

"Alright then, since you say it'll be useful, I'll make the trip myself."

"You're with me, kid. I'll take you to try your luck. Whether it works out or not, that's up to fate."

"Thank you, Uncle Li, I'll get ready right away!"

Upon hearing that Uncle Li was willing to personally take charge, Ye Chen immediately arranged for Tian Cong to borrow a tractor.

He personally led Uncle Li towards the neighboring village.

Half an hour later, the two arrived at Zhengjia Village.

Uncle Li gave directions and stopped outside a courtyard, instructing Ye Chen to wait outside the gate.

Only then did he knock on the door alone!

"Who is it!"

The person who opened the door was an old man with white hair. When he saw Uncle Li, his eyebrows lit up with joy.

But immediately after sweeping away Ye Chen behind Uncle Li, his expression darkened.

"Why did you bring others along?"

"Old man, stop talking nonsense and come inside to talk!"

Uncle Li waved his hand impatiently and pushed the old man directly into the yard.

A short while later, when Uncle Li reappeared, he had two gun cases on his back.

"Let's go back!"

When Uncle Li spoke, Ye Chen immediately became excited.

After returning home, Uncle Li called Ye Chen into the inner room and then opened the gun case.

Two semi-automatic rifles came into view, and they were in no way inferior to the one that Uncle Li had given to Ye Chen before, both in terms of condition and maintenance.

There were still quite a few bullets in the gun case.

Before Ye Chen could speak, Uncle Li had already pushed the two gun cases over.

"This is yours. Once you've finished, hand it over as before."

"This thing is a nuisance if we keep it; it might cause trouble at any time."

"Also, if you're going to do anything, make sure you've thought it through carefully. You must clear any way out and absolutely cannot leave any evidence against you!"

"In the old forest, the most terrifying thing isn't the beasts, but people. Never let a moment of weakness ruin your own life!"

Uncle Li seemed to have noticed something and deliberately spoke up to give some advice.

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen fell silent.

After a long while, he nodded to Uncle Li, then slung the gun case over his shoulder, turned and walked out of the Li family's house.

Ye Chen immediately sought out Tian Cong.

They began to discuss plans to deal with Liu Zhen and his gang.

Tian Cong asked the most crucial question: "Brother Ye Chen, how can we lure Liu Zhen and his gang into the old forest?"
