　　Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper immediately followed into the bathing area.

　　Then Chen Jie leaned comfortably against the pool, looked at the shopkeeper and said, "Something happened."

　　"No, it's okay. I just want to ask objectively, is the water temperature suitable?"

　　Chen Jie nodded and said, "It's OK."

　　After that, the shopkeeper said, "Call me if you need anything."

　　"By the way, are there any rooms available? Open a room for me."

　　The shopkeeper said, "Yes, yes."

　　With that, he went straight to get a room, walked out of the hot spring area and said, "Nothing."

　　The guy said, "Just now, like that."

　　The shopkeeper said, "Shh, that's enough, let's just pretend that this never happened. Judging from his demeanor, he must be a martial arts hero with martial arts skills. Don't mess with him, don't mess with him."

　　"Serve me well, don't be negligent."

　　"It's the shopkeeper's. I understand."

　　The clerk responded, and the shopkeeper said, "Okay, do what you need to do."

　　After taking a bath, Chen Jie got dressed and went upstairs to sleep.

　　I am really tired today. Taking a bath makes me feel much more comfortable.

　　Just like that, the whole night passed in silence. The next day, Chen Jie woke up and got some information.

　　However, there is nothing too important, but there is one explanation that seems quite interesting, which is that the old beggar and Shizuka Nun knew each other. When the two were young, the Emei Sect went down the mountain to do business and went to the Beggar Gang to inquire about the news. The two people who contacted them at that time were the old beggar and Shizuka Nun.

　　When Master Shizuka violated the precepts and was expelled from Emei, the first place she thought of was Mianshui County. There is a story behind this.

　　However, Chen Jie is not a gossipy person. He would just take a look at such things and let them go. Everyone has some unknown past.

　　Chen Jie paid some money, and when he was settling the bill, the shopkeeper insisted on giving him a 20% discount. Chen Jie didn't know why, but since the shopkeeper insisted on giving him a discount, there was nothing he could do.

　　Riding a horse, he returned to the city.

　　As soon as he returned to his home in the Big Vegetable Market from South Street, he found that a group of fishing gang members were gathered at his doorstep.

　　There were probably forty or fifty people there, and he thought something had happened, so he ran over immediately and saw Su Yunjin talking to Zhou Chu.

　　Seeing Chen Jie coming back, she immediately said happily, "Husband."

　　Chen Jie came over and asked, "What's wrong?"

　　After hearing this, Su Yunjin said, "Husband, Brother Zhou said he would come to help us move."

　　Chen Jie looked at Zhou Chu, and Zhou Chu said, "Jiu Si, Zheng Chu's house has been cleaned up for you, and the maids and servants have been bought. It's up to you to move in. Everyone is here to help you move."

　　After hearing this, Chen Jie looked at Su Yunjin and said, "My wife, I forgot to tell you that our foster father gave us a big house and we have to move there."

　　Su Yunjin said: "Husband, here..."

　　"Well, I know you're used to living here, but there are some things I can't explain right away."

　　"Then there's no need to explain. I'll tell Sister Hua and then I'll go with you."

　　Chen Jie said: "Okay, I'll wait for you."

　　At this time Zhou Chu said: "Jiu Si, are you going to move these cabinets?"

　　After hearing this, Chen Jie said, "Why move? I already live in a new house, why do I need old furniture? Wait, just take some gold and silver items."

　　After hearing this, Zhou Chu said, "That's a bit too many people coming."

　　Chen Jie said: "I can't let you guys come here for nothing. I'll host you at Yang's Restaurant at noon today to celebrate my move to a new house. Hahahaha..."

　　After hearing this, the younger brothers around him all responded.

　　Then Chen Jie asked Zhou Chu: "Are they all our own people?"

　　Zhou Chu said: "Yes, they are all our own people."

　　Just as he was talking here, he suddenly heard a voice from a distance: "Brother Jiu Si~"

　　Chen Jie turned around and immediately saw Chen Xiaohu. He couldn't help but smile and said, "You finally decided to come back."

　　Xiaohu ran over quickly, looking quite capable.

　　Chen Jie looked over and said, "Have you entered the Willow Tendon Realm?"

　　Xiao Hu said: "This is all thanks to Brother Zhou's muscle-relieving pills. Thank you, Brother Zhou."

　　After hearing this, Zhou Chu said, "Brother, you are heretic."

　　After saying this, Zhou Chu turned to look at Xiao Hu and said, "You have become much more capable after following Uncle Fu for two days."

　　Xiaohu said: "Hehe, I learned a lot."

　　Chen Jie said, "It's just right. Now that I'm back, I can help my brother run the White Tiger Hall. Now we have established a foothold in the White Tiger Hall. From now on, Zhou Chu will be in charge of the Nanhu Salt Field, Xiaohu, you will be in charge of Yongchang Street and the big vegetable market, and I will be in charge of the overall situation. The three of us will definitely make a name for ourselves."

　　"good."

　　"good."

　　Xiao Hu and Zhou Chu were so excited by Chen's explanation that they followed Chen's explanation and said, "But the most important thing now is to cultivate confidants. We can't do without confidants."

　　Zhou Chu said: "Jiu Si, there are more than 150 people who have joined us now."

　　Chen Jie said: "Most of these people are fence-sitters. There are probably not many who are truly loyal. We need to treat them with caution."

　　"Let's do this in two steps. Xiaohu, try to contact the people in Xiantao Village and see if any of our brothers left behind have become talented. If they have good talents, you can bring them here as soon as possible. We can spend money to buy them medicine to train them."

　　"Secondly, it is Director Zhou. You must strictly control the people who join us. Try to select those who are loyal to us and promote them."

　　"Without loyal subordinates, it won't work."

　　After hearing this, they both clasped their fists and said, "Yes."

　　Although Zhou Chu usually shouts "Nine-Four-Nine-Four", he actually knows that he works for Chen Jie, so he knows in his heart that he is a subordinate.

　　This was also a very good performance.

　　After some arrangements, Hua Sanniang sent Su Yunjin out and said, "Okay, I know. I know Zheng Chuan's house. It's just one street away from here. I'll come to see you when I'm free."

　　"Look, you've moved into a big house and are living a good life, but you're crying. We're just across the street, and you're..."

　　Hua Sanniang said to Su Yunjin with a smile.

　　And Su Yunjin didn't know why she was crying.

　　Chen Jie then went over to talk to Hua Sanniang.

　　Hua Sanniang looked at Chen Jie and said, "You should be nice to Yunjin. This girl has had such a hard life. She has never had a good life. Look, she just moved to a new home and she's already crying like this."

　　Chen Jie then gently held his wife's hand and said, "Sister Hua is right. By the way, Sister Hua, it's just next to the street. You can come visit us when you have time."

　　"OK."

　　Chen Jie said, "How about I open a tofu shop for you next to it?"

　　Chen Jie had a good idea. Hua Sanniang, one of the Thirteen Protectors, was a master of Hua Jin. If she could open a tofu shop near her home, wouldn't it be like having an extra bodyguard who was a master of Hua Jin?

　　Hua Sanniang heard this and said, "Forget it. Tofu pudding is not easy to sell in that place. Besides, we are used to living here."

　　Chen Jie said: "Then we won't embarrass Sanniang. We'll leave first and come visit us when we have time."

　　Hua Sanniang smiled and said, "Okay, I'll come and see your big house when I have time."

　　After that, Chen Jie led a group of people to Zheng Chuan's mansion.

　　It was the first time for Little Bean to see such a big house. There was even a big pond in the yard. What a huge place it was.

　　She just ran wildly in the yard.

　　At this time, Chen Jie looked at the younger brothers from the fishing gang who followed him. According to Peng Shizhong's regulations, this kind of mansion was allowed to be guarded by forty people, but the owner had to pay for their own salaries.

　　Chen Jie said to Xiao Hu, "Go and pick forty loyal men from Zhou Chu. It doesn't matter if they are weaker or not, the most important thing is loyalty."

　　Xiaohu nodded.

　　At this time, Chen Jie gathered all the new servants in the mansion.

　　There were a dozen people in total.

　　Among them were four maids, four servants, a cook in the kitchen, five helpers in the yard, and one stable boy.

　　Chen Jie is now also able to raise horses.

　　There were three horses left by Zheng Chuan in the stable, one of which was a pretty good war horse.

　　In addition, there were two horse-drawn carriages in the house, which made it convenient for Su Yunjin to travel. Thinking back to the time when their family was sent home in a horse-drawn carriage, it attracted the attention of the whole village. At that time, they had never thought about owning a carriage of their own.

　　And now the dream has come true, not just one, but two in total, and a rideable warhorse.

　　It can be said that the identity is different in an instant.

　　Chen Jie said to Su Yunjin at this time: "Yunjin, you can take a carriage when you go out from now on."

　　Su Yunjin said: "Isn't this too ostentatious?"

　　Chen Jie smiled and said, "My dear, your identity is different now. You are now the wife of Master Wu, the actual controller of the White Tiger Hall. You are also a well-known figure, Xiaohu."

　　"Why!"

　　Xiao Hu came over at this time, and Chen Jie said, "Send someone to the tailor shop this afternoon to make clothes for us."

　　"Okay."

　　Chen Jie said to Su Yunjin at this time: "Madam, this afternoon, you should cooperate with the tailor and make eight or ten sets of clothes first."

　　"I want one too!"

　　At this time, Xiao Douding shouted from the side.

　　Chen Jie said: "Okay, I'll do it for you too."

　　As this was said, Su Yunjin said, "Husband, you have just taken power, you can't do this, or you will be hated by others."

　　After hearing this, Chen Jie said, "Haha... Madam, if I sit in this position, I will definitely be envied, but the reason for the envy is definitely not because I made a few more new sets of clothes for you."

　　"Husband..."
