Chapter 29 Floating Clouds and Wealth (3)
"Clan discussion? What to discuss?" Chen Juren lost his usual calmness and said with a blushing face: "Does the patriarch also think that the third and nine rooms are right? Just divide the Sun's dowry like this?"
The old man in the third room and the ninth room were exposed on his face, while the relatives in the other houses looked bad. Even for the reputation of the Shen family, it was indeed not appropriate to cause trouble in court, so we should not be confused.
The clan leader said sternly: "The fourth rule of clan rule: Those who occupy tribe members' money and property should return it to their masters, and those who violate the clan...exclude the clan!"
The old man from the third house hurriedly said: "The court law stipulates that 'the land is a trade of real money and silver, but it is lower than the market price, so how can it become an occupation of the tribe's family'?"
The patriarch's great master said with a dark face: "The law stipulates that land property disputes are subject to the 'official letter', but also stipulates that those who invade other people's industries in the name of transactions! Who is Chen Yongshan? To be nice, he is a four-bedroom in-laws, and to be straightforward, he is just a manager who manages foreign affairs for the four-bedroom. How can he be qualified to deal with Sun's private property? Even though he knows that it is inappropriate, he still deliberately buys and sells the property, but is it not an invasion of the industry?"
The old man from the third house said angrily: "Who doesn't know that since Sun's bedridden, the fourth house and his private property were entrusted to the Zhang family to take care of. The Zhang family's son-in-law held a contract in his hand, buying and selling industries, and asked his relatives and neighbors first, the government established a contract, paid taxes and transferred the property, and all the procedures were complete, so where was it inappropriate?"
The clan leader did not look at the old master of the third house, but said to the clan master with a cold face: "Invasion of the industry is a violation of national laws and regulations. Although this matter should not be caused to be in court, the clan discusses this matter not to be indulged, but to hurt the harmony of the clan members. If the second brother knows to return the property, it is better to return it; if the profit is insincere and does not repent, he will naturally send him to the official and get rid of the clan!"
The master of the Zongfang family bowed and said, "It should be like this. Without rules, you cannot make a square. If the clan indulge in evil deeds, you don't need to ask for the reputation of the Shen family for a hundred years."
The father and son answered one-on-one, and the old man from the third room and the old man from the ninth room were so angry that the clan leader had been the clan leader for more than 50 years and had accumulated great power. Although he had not shown much in recent years, he had used the method of using thunder in his early years. At present, the attitude of "destroying relatives for justice" was all out, and the two of them were full of anger on their faces, but they did not dare to speak loudly.
Let’s see how he deals with it. Chen Jiang is the legitimate son of the clan leader. Could it be that he really wants to “send his son to become an official”?
Chen Juren's face, which was already desperate, finally showed a little hope, and said in a trembling voice: "Uncle..."
The clan leader only glanced at Chen Juren and said to everyone: "Sun married into the Shen family for more than 20 years. He is filial and virtuous, pity the poor and cherishes the weak, and has done many good deeds. He is worthy of being a wise wife of the Shen family. It is a blessing for my Shen family to be a wife. Now that the Sun family's body is not cold, he has left a wealth of wealth and will be eaten and drunk. If there is no justice, who will dare to marry his daughter into the Shen family in the future? How can the daughter of the Shen family have the face to go out? Those who dare to ruin the reputation of our Shen family for a hundred years are the great sinners of the Shen family!"
The old man from the eighth house sneered: "That is, if the clan indulges in this matter, then what face does the Shen family have to be based in Songjiang? It is so thick-faced to seize the Sun family's industry? Regardless of the clan's bloodline, it is shameful to just repay the enemy with only kindness! Except for the second house in Beijing, which of the Shen family's eight house leaders has never received the benefits of the Sun family? A thousand thousand taels of silver is so cheap, it will make people lose their conscience?"
The Master of the Five House followed and said, "There are dead branches in the tree, and there are inevitably people among the clans who are misbehaving. The little clan moved for five generations and the Shen family lived in Songjiang. The inheritance lasted for more than five generations, but they can be subordinate to the clan relatives. If the clan relatives are not close and the heart is broken, it will be more terrible than outsiders. We honest people really dare not discuss relatives with such clan members!"
The third and the ninth rooms were first embarrassed and angry, but I heard that I was already in a lack of confidence.
Why do three bedrooms and nine bedrooms look so ugly? Because the three bedrooms have a brand of a prominent family with a scholarly family, they are engaged in business affairs, and they value profit over feelings; nine bedrooms are the ones with the thinnest industries among the houses. Because of this, the talents of these two bedrooms have long made up their minds to argue with the four bedrooms, and dared to take advantage of such a thing.
The clan leader’s great master talks about the reputation of the Shen clan, the old master of the eighth room is talking about kindness, and the great master of the fifth room is talking about kinship.
Even though the Shen clan is an ancestor, the outer five lords have long been unparalleled, and they have the name of clan members, but in fact they have a very distant bloodline. Even the inner four lords are better than the older generation, but they still have congratulations. The clan leader and grandson really want to take advantage of the situation and expel the third and nine lords from the Shen clan. It is not impossible.
Although the third house is rich, there is no Shen clan as a signboard. If there is no official clan as a shelter, it is just a piece of fat. However, the Jiufang was originally a flawed reputation for treating Chen Li's father and son, so it is difficult to guarantee that someone will take advantage of the situation to please Chen Li.
The old man from the third room and the old man from the ninth room were not upright, so he could not help but infer others with his sinister heart. Instead, he was frightened by the words of the old man from the fifth room and became scruples.
Shen Rui felt at ease when he watched this drama. No wonder the clan leader wanted to "clan discussion". The Shen family had eight houses, six to two, and this "justice" clan leader was really in charge. The Sun family's dowry could not only be recorded in the genealogy, but also make Sun family leave a gift, so that they would never be cheaper to these villains in front of him.
He glanced at Chen Jin standing next to him, and Chen Jin's face showed a little disappointment. I don't know whether it was disappointed that Sun's family disappeared or the ugly face of the tribe's tribe invading, but his face was still young, but it seemed that he had grown up all of a sudden.
Seeing Shen Rui's gaze, Chen Jin turned his head, the disappointment on his face had already subsided, and showed some concern, and comforted in a low voice: "Second brother, don't be afraid, there is the clan leader and the brother of the sixth clan!"
Shen Rui didn't want to speak, so he nodded, turned his head and looked at Shen Li. Shen Li had a little ridicule on his face, but he sat down as if he was as peaceful as a mountain.
The room suddenly became silent.
No one spoke first, only Chen Juren was "huhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
The atmosphere in the room became more and more depressing. Fortunately, there was a noise outside at this time. A servant replied through the door: "Master, the two great masters are here."
When the clan leaders heard this, they looked at Shen Li in unison.
Chen Li didn't stand up, but said, "Please come in, two great masters."
The one who came to Chen Li’s house was called this.
As soon as they finished speaking, the two of them came over at the door. It was Chen Jiang and Chen Lian who had been away for a while. They looked for their fathers, one looked at the patriarch's eldest son and the other looked at the old man in the third room.
The patriarch said, "Kneel down!"
Chen Lian was still confused, and Chen Jiang had already kneeled down to the ground with a "thump".
The clan leader did not ask much, and got up and held the crutch and pulled it hard on Chen Jiang's back. Chen Jiang staggered and fell to the ground, with a look of horror on his face. The clan leader's crutch had already fallen like raindrops, and Chen Jiang did not hide, but just piled up on the ground, gritting his teeth and suffering.
The people of the tribe were frightened when they saw it. The master of the clan's house hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed the clan leader's great master's arm: "Dad... my second brother is not a greedy person, he must have been fooled. Please listen to him for a few words first!"
The clan leader said angrily: "He is forty-eight, not eighteen. Don't he know what to do or what not to do? Chen Jiang, go back and bring the deeds and return them to the fourth room honestly, otherwise you will get out of the Shen family!"
Chen Jiang raised his head, his face pale, his forehead was covered with cold sweat as big as soybeans, and begged: "Dad, the children in those industries should not take advantage of those industries and buy them at a low price, but they spent the money of Qu's dowry..."
Before he could finish the collection, the patriarch said coldly: "You still have the face to say that Qu married into the Shen family thirty years ago, and the silver was only 1,000 taels. I don't know that she could buy a tens of thousands of taels of property. She usually has shallow eyes, and she has a few melons and two dates from the master. No one cares about her giving birth to children for you. This time, she urged you to seize the property. Such an unvirtuous woman cannot bear to be a wife or a mother. Let her go to the family temple to pray for her children."
Chen Jiang raised his head and said, "Dad, third sister, and fourth sister are all married after the New Year..."
The clan leader sneered, "So what? Just because you want to marry a daughter, you hate the small dowry, so you go and take the dowry from others? My children and grandchildren cannot do such a ugly thing, and the Shen clan cannot tolerate such a bad person. Either return the contract and apologize to the fourth house, or get out of the Shen family and go to the court to argue well, and what punishment should we be given to encroach on other people's property in the name of transaction!"
The old man made a name for himself and did not give Chen Jiang any other choice.
Chen Jiang raised his head, looked at the clan leader, and then looked at Chen Juren, trembling lips and whispered: "Dad...that ten thousand taels of silver for transfer..."
The people in the third and eighth rooms were frightened by the "school" scene of the clan leader, and they all held their breath and kept their voices. The clan leader was really powerful, and except for the back of the clan, they were also sent to officials. Who dared to take advantage of this? They had already regretted it, and they were just like Chen Jiang, worried about the real money and silver handed over.
The patriarch, the great master, snorted coldly, "There is a cause of injustice and a debt. Since Chen Yongshan has been deceived, he will naturally pursue it!"
Chen Jiang had already had a bitter face, but he didn't dare to talk anymore.
The old man from the third room and the old man from the ninth room looked at each other, and his face was a little gray. The silver and money were handed over with Chen Yongshan, but since he was willing to cheat, he naturally had already gone far away. It was two or three months later, where would he go to find someone? But although the clan leader did not mention the eight industries obtained by the third room and the ninth room, he had already put the words out. If you choose those industries, you must first get rid of the clan and then the official; otherwise you must honestly return the contract letters.
The amount of purchase and sale of the three places in the Chenjiang River is 10,000 taels. Although Jiufang is a four-in-one property, because Jiufang has no money, these four places are just villas and remote shops. It costs only a few thousand taels, but Jiufang has mortgaged several industries to complete. The third house took over two large-scale farms and two prosperous shops, which cost more than 30,000 taels. Is this money was wasted?
But if the patriarch had given up his own son without saying a word, how could he show mercy to these tribe members?
