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

In less than half a day, Tian Cong returned.

After finding Ye Chen, explain the situation truthfully.

"I have investigated this matter thoroughly. The incident occurred at a factory on the outskirts of Shengcheng."

"That factory had been unattended for a long time, and Luo Guanzhong didn't take it seriously at all. He probably never imagined that the Zhang family would use it as a warehouse."

Ye Chen took the documents handed to him by Tian Cong, glanced at them, and then frowned slightly.

When the Luo family ran into trouble, Zhangjiajie took over the Luo family's factory and warehouse under the guise of investment!

Although the Luo family had fallen on hard times, they were still a force to be reckoned with, with more than a dozen warehouses alone.

Even if Luo Guanzhong was on guard, he couldn't possibly keep an eye on so many places all by himself.

A moment of carelessness led to this terrible mistake!

"It means this warehouse was abandoned long ago, which is why Luo Guanzhong didn't take precautions in advance. The Zhang family is indeed despicable."

"The only way to get to the bottom of this matter is to trace it back to its source!"

"The police had previously stated that this batch of smuggled goods came from abroad, and most of them were televisions, which are usually in high demand, as well as bicycles."

"Brother Tian Cong, you know quite a few people. Could you please help me find out where this batch of goods came from? If you can contact the seller, that would be best. I can then follow the trail and directly expose the Zhang family!"

"Okay, but it's almost the end of the year, so it might not be appropriate to do things at this time," Tian Cong nodded and explained.

Ye Chen immediately arranged, "It's alright, take it slow. The Zhang family is large and powerful. After the New Year, we'll have some fun with them!"

"The Zhang family sees me as a thorn in their side. Even if I don't deal with them, they won't let me go. Since that's the case, I might as well strike first."

"Find out information about the Zhang family for me. As for investigating the smuggling, we can talk about that after the New Year."

……

Three days later.

Luo Ling's emotions finally stabilized.

The group finally left the provincial capital and returned to Shuangshu Village.

Seeing Luo Ling's haggard appearance, Tian Xiaohui and Qian Jiali immediately stepped forward to comfort her.

With the help of her two close older sisters, Rowling's mood improved considerably.

But no one expected that at such a critical moment, an uninvited guest would arrive.

"Ye Chen, you're really something, hiding away in the countryside, living a really comfortable life!"

"It took me a lot of effort to find out where you live. I never imagined you'd actually made a name for yourself in this village!"

Outside, Zhang Shaoyang, with a gloomy smile on his face, made a sarcastic remark.

Upon seeing this, Luo Ling erupted instantly, ignoring the two people beside her trying to stop her, and rushed forward.

"You bastard surnamed Zhang, your whole family are animals! You framed my dad, and you still have the nerve to come here."

"Zhang Shaoyang, I'm going to kill you today, even if it means trading my life for yours!"

"That's enough!"

As Luo Ling spoke, she became more and more agitated. She picked up a hoe and was about to fight Zhang Shaoyang to the death when Ye Chen stepped in to save her.

He snatched the hoe from her and stopped Luo Ling.

"Xiaohui, Jiali, you two take Luo Ling away. Don't let him do anything foolish!"

Ye Chen gave the two women some instructions, and after watching them take Luo Ling away, he turned his head and glanced at Zhang Shaoyang.

Zhang Shaoyang stood alone outside the door, a hint of arrogance on his face.

"What? Ye Chen? Weren't you so capable before? My Zhang family has been established in the provincial capital for many years, and you're the first person to make our Zhang family lose money!"

"But don't be so smug. The Zhang family's things aren't so easy to take. You made the Zhang family pay you a million in compensation, and the Zhang family will make you pay with a life!"

"By the way, Ye Chen, you need to be careful. I heard you took over quite a few shops on Factory Street; it must have cost you a lot of money, right?"

"What a pity, the factory's deputy director is my third uncle. After the New Year, I can get him to take back those shops with just one sentence, and all the money you spent will be wasted!"

"Are you done talking?" Ye Chen remained remarkably calm in the face of Zhang Shaoyang's swagger.

Ye Chen knew perfectly well that the reason the other party dared to show up alone today was to lure him into making a mistake!

At this moment, any impulsive action would immediately lead to falling into Zhang Shaoyang's trap.

"Young Master Zhang, don't forget how you begged for mercy in front of me back then. Since I was able to let you go, I naturally have ways to make sure you fall into my hands!"

"You attacked Uncle Luo by taking advantage of his weakness. I'd like to see how you deal with me."

"snort!"

Upon hearing Ye Chen mention the past, Zhang Shaoyang couldn't help but snort coldly.

"Ye Chen, stop being so arrogant. I'll let you live a few more days. After the New Year, I'll personally take action and utterly defeat you!"

After uttering a harsh remark, Zhang Shaoyang turned and left.

As the other person's figure gradually disappeared, Ye Chen's gaze deepened, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his pupils.

Zhang Shaoyang's reckless behavior is practically suicidal!

After the New Year, we'll definitely make an example of him first!

……

The year-end is approaching.

In the following days, Shuangshu Village became increasingly lively, with every household busy stocking up on New Year's goods.

Thanks to Ye Chen, many people in the village have made money, and now that the New Year is over, they are celebrating even more lavishly.

In the 1980s, the countryside was particularly lively, with many people visiting relatives and friends every day.

Ye Chen, along with three women, hurriedly made arrangements and managed to move back to the old house before the Lunar New Year.

"To be honest, it's still most comfortable to live in my own home. This three-story house was something I never dared to dream of before, but now it's a reality!"

"Our courtyard is one of the best in the city; we've finally had a good New Year this year!"

The three women surrounded Ye Chen and couldn't help but speak up.

Upon hearing this exclamation, a smile finally appeared on Ye Chen's face.

He had wronged three women too much in the past, but now he has repented and is finally able to give his women a good life!

"Ye Chen! You've really made something of yourself now. Your third uncle and I have been waiting for you at the old house for so long, we're so glad you've finally arrived!"

Ye Chen never expected that relatives would come knocking on his door so soon after he moved into his new home.

A middle-aged woman, leading a young man and carrying two bags of eggs, walked into the house with eager expressions.

Upon seeing the other person, Ye Chen frowned slightly, and a surge of anger welled up in his heart.

"Fifth Aunt, what are you doing at my house?"

"Didn't I tell you before, you're not welcome in my home? Didn't I teach you a lesson last time?"

The middle-aged woman was a distant relative of Ye Chen. She had come to Ye Chen's door shortly after his father passed away.

Seeing Ye Chen's gloomy expression, the middle-aged woman immediately spoke up with a fawning smile.

"Ye Chen, are you kidding me? We're all relatives, what grudge could we possibly hold?"

"Don't worry, I'm just here to wish you a Happy New Year. As the saying goes, you can't hit a smiling face. On such a festive day, you wouldn't kick me out, would you?"
