Xu Guoren revealed an imperceptible smile and immediately revealed his purpose."Father, my request is very simple. I hope that you can help me build an armed force that will absolutely obey my Xu family.”
When Xu Tianyang heard that, he immediately sobered up. He looked at his precious son in surprise and said,"Brat, what did you say?"
Xu Guoren met his father's surprised gaze and said firmly,"I hope you can help me build an armed force similar to the security corps.”
"Brat, your ambition is not small. Since ancient times, this army has been the most expensive. Do you know how much it costs to feed an army?”Xu Tianyang said in shock.
Xu Guoren saw that his father wanted to deny it, so he quickly explained,"Father, Guoren wants to form an army not because he is hot-headed, nor because he is greedy for power.”
"Then what are you after?" Xu Tianyang glared at Xu Guoren and said,""Be a good cop and give birth to a big fatty with Qianwen. Even if Dad dies, he can close his eyes!”
Xu Guoren quickly said," Dad, a good man has ambition in all directions. I told you before that the Japanese will not give up their desire to destroy me. A war will break out between China and Japan sooner or later. I want to form an army so that I can lead them to resist the Japanese and save the country in the future. I want to save the people from fire and water and restore our beautiful mountains and rivers!
Even if it's not for the country's affairs, for the business of our Xu family's business, we still need to form a force that listens to us. In this chaotic world, it's better to have guns than money and food. Otherwise, we'll be fat sheep in the eyes of others. At that time, we'll be like fish on a chopping block. In the end, won't we be at the mercy of others?
If my son has a refined army, I will make sure that the water bandits in the north and south of the Yangtze River will not dare to spy on my Xu family's business!”
Xu Guoren spoke righteously and logically.
With Xu Tianyang's cunning, he naturally understood the meaning of being a fish on the chopping block. All these years, in order to rope in those guys who held military power, he had spent a lot of money.
Just the money spent on both the legal and illegal sides was enough to support a security team.
In the past, Xu Tianyang did not have any hope for his son, so he could only spend money to ensure his safety and make connections.
In this chaotic world, how could he not understand that having guns was better than having money and food?
Therefore, if Xu Guoren had said these words in the past, Xu Tianyang would have thought that this kid was trying to cheat him of money again and would not have believed him at all.
However, after this mission, Xu Tianyang could see that his son had really changed. Although he was a little unfamiliar with him, he still liked the current Xu Guoren.
The reason was very simple. Everyone wanted their children to become successful!
Therefore, Xu Guoren's words moved him.
After weighing the pros and cons, Xu Tianyang gritted his teeth and said,"Son, you have to think carefully. If you don't take this path well, it's very likely to bring disaster to our family!”
Xu Guoren immediately expressed his stance." Father, don't worry. As long as you support me with all your strength, I promise to bring you a capable army in three months or half a year!"”
"Yes, Father believes you." Xu Tianyang nodded his head in relief. He paused and said,"However, before we officially implement this plan, you have to make three rules with Father!”
"Father, tell me, let alone three rules, I'll agree to ten rules!”Xu Guoren was overjoyed and agreed without hesitation.
"If a war really breaks out between China and Japan in the future, no matter how urgent the situation at the front line is, you and Qianwen must bear me a grandson. Otherwise, you are not allowed to go to the front line!”Xu Tianyang stated his request.
Xu Guoren was a little surprised. He turned his head awkwardly to look at Chu Qianwen, who was sitting beside him. He realized that her face was completely red and lowered her head shyly.
Xu Guoren scratched his head and said,"We'll do our best, hehe."”
"What do you mean by doing your best? You're a man. Don't you dare to give your father a guarantee for such a small matter?" Xu Tianyang was eager for his grandson and was a little anxious.
"Dad, I can't just get pregnant whenever I want! Xu Guoren didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Chu Qianwen was so shy that she couldn't help but say,""Eunuch, there are still outsiders. Can you stop talking about this?”
Xu Tianyang knew that he had said something wrong, so he quickly smiled awkwardly and said,"Haha, Father drank too much and spoke inappropriately. Don't be angry and don't laugh at me. That's all for today. I'll go back to my room to rest.”
"Dad, you can't go back on your word about forming an army! Xu Guoren quickly stood up to help him and reminded him.
"I've always been a spittle and a nail when I speak. When have I ever gone back on my word?”Xu Tianyang glared at Xu Guoren reproachfully.
Xu Guoren was overjoyed. He held him and said,"Hehe, I'll send you back to rest."”
Xu Tianyang enjoyed his son's filial piety. On the way, he did not forget to whisper to Xu Guoren to work harder and give birth to a grandson as soon as possible.
Chu Qianwen's face turned even redder as she listened. Lin Ruohan couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh."Qianwen, your father-in-law is really interesting.”
Chu Qianwen blushed and said,"I'm sorry for making a fool of myself."”
"How can that be? It's normal for an old man to want a grandson.”Lin Ruohan looked at Xu Guoren's back as he left and praised him generously,"Big Brother Xu is really a man who cares about his country and the world. What else do you want? Qianwen, you have to cherish it."”
That night, Lin Ruohan and Liang Yan wanted to leave, but Xu Guoren and Chu Qianwen asked them to stay and rest at their own home. After all, it was not safe for the two girls at night, and their home was in a small county town below Jiang City, which was dozens of miles away.
Xu Guoren promised to let Xu Gensheng drive them back tomorrow. Under the enthusiasm of the couple, Lin Ruohan and Liang Yan stayed.
Chu Qianwen was worried that she could not avoid the awkwardness of sharing a room with Xu Guoren, so she immediately invited Lin Ruohan and Liang Yan to sleep in the same room as her.
However, he did not expect Lin Ruohan and the other to reject him on the spot."Student Qianwen, we appreciate your kindness, but you and Brother Xu have just gotten married. How can we sleep with you?”
"That's right, that's right. We can't afford to delay Old Master's grandchild.”Liang Yan covered her mouth and joked.
" But..." Chu Qianwen felt depressed because she had not made friends.
Lin Ruohan pushed her back into the room and said,"That's it. You guys rest early and have children early. Liang Yan and I will sleep in your guest room. The Xu family's courtyard is so big. You don't have to worry about us.”
After saying that, the two of them left the room. Xu Guoren and Xu Gensheng were sitting in the living room chatting.
"Brother, are you really going to form an army? Xu Gensheng could not help but ask excitedly.
"Of course, when the time comes, you'll be my assistant!”Xu Guoren nodded." When the time comes, we brothers will work together. We will be able to cut through metal, protect the people, and protect the country!"”
"Alright, as long as Brother Ren says the word, I'll go through fire and water! Xu Gensheng said excitedly.
At this moment, Lin Ruohan and Xu Guoren walked into the living room and said with a smile,""Brother Xu, you should go back and rest. Qianwen is waiting for you.”
"Eh, aren't you guys going to chat?" Xu Guoren stood up and said.
"No, a night in spring is worth a thousand gold. How dare I delay you, Big Brother Xu!”"I'm just joking, Big Brother Xu. Please don't take offense." Lin Ruohan teased with a smile.”
"How can that be? I'll get Gensheng to help you clean up the house!”After Xu Guoren finished speaking, he turned around and instructed Xu Gensheng.
"Thank you, Big Brother Xu." After thanking him, the two of them left with Xu Gensheng.
Xu Guoren picked up a cup of tea on the table and drank it in one gulp before walking towards his room.
Chu Qianwen had already closed the door to her room due to the cold wind. When she heard Xu Guoren's footsteps, she hesitated for a moment before opening the door and saying,""I'm back."
"Yes!" Xu Guoren nodded. He stepped into the house.
When Chu Qianwen closed the door and turned around, she saw that Xu Guoren was already fiddling with the stool.
Biting her lips, she mustered her courage and said,""Why don't you go to bed tonight? It's too cold to sleep on a bench.”
Xu Guoren stopped what he was doing and looked back at her. Chu Qianwen quickly explained,""Don't misunderstand. I'm just afraid that you'll catch a cold.”
"It's okay, I'm not cold." Xu Guoren smiled.”
Chu Qianwen didn't know what to say. She could only slowly walk towards the bed, feeling all sorts of emotions in her heart.
