Three days later, Chen Family, Recruitment Hall.
A skinny old man wearing a bamboo hat and a veil came to the recruitment hall set up by the Chen family. He was dressed like a beggar.
Looking at the red paper pasted on the outer wall of the recruitment hall, he walked over. It was a recruitment notice.
When he saw that the Chen family was recruiting all kinds of strange people.
The old man smiled.
He tidied his clothes and walked slowly towards the entrance of the recruitment hall with his hands behind his back.
At the gate stood two strong and brave warriors of the Chen family.
A warrior of the Chen family saw someone coming forward and stepped forward to stop the old man.
Seeing this, the old man smiled and said,"I saw the recruitment notice outside and wanted to try it inside."
The warrior carefully sized up the old man. Although the old man looked like a beggar, he had stayed in the recruitment hall for quite some time and naturally understood the principle of not judging a book by its cover.
He stepped aside.
"Please come in!"
The smile on the old man's face grew wider.
.......
In the Chen family's residence, in the family head's courtyard.
Chen Kun was handling clan affairs.
At this moment, the guard outside the door came to report that the steward in charge of recruiting talents for the Chen family requested an audience.
The person in charge of this matter was Protector Chen Yongchuan.
After that, Chen Yongchuan received Chen Kun's order and became a county captain.
County Wei official business busy, Chen Yongchuan both sides can not take care of.
Thus, he resigned and gave up his position as the head of the Recruitment Hall.
Chen Kun agreed. He promoted a steward who had made many contributions to the Chen family to be the manager of the recruitment hall.
The new head of the Recruitment Hall was doing a good job.
Within a short period of time.
He had recruited four late Houtian and more than 30 middle Houtian talents for the Chen family.
Chen Kun valued him even more.
When she heard that it was him, she said,"Let him in."”
Not long after.
A young man walked in and looked at Chen Kun, who was sitting on the main seat.
He bowed respectfully and said,"Greetings, Master."”
Chen Kun waved his hand.
"Speak, Huangzhong. Why didn't you manage the recruitment hall properly and come to see me?"”
This manager's name was Chen Huangzhong.
"Clan Head, a strange person came to the Recruitment Hall today."”
"This strange man is quite capable. The few experts in the clan who are in charge of the Recruitment Hall are not his match. Even Elder Jiang Wu himself was forced back by that strange man with a single strike.”
"I originally planned to recruit that strange person, but that strange person refused to budge and insisted on meeting the family head!”
"Huangzhong really didn't know what to do, so he came to ask the family head.”
Chen Kun listened.
He raised his eyebrows and revealed an interested expression.
He knew about Jiang Wu, a master at the peak of Houtian ninth stage.
Although his elder brother had already entered the Connate Realm, under the Chen Family's nurturing, it was only a matter of time before he broke through to the Connate Realm.
Although Jiang Wu was only at the peak of Houtian ninth stage, his strength was extremely powerful, far surpassing those of the same level.
Even so, he was still defeated by the strange person that Chen Huangzhong had mentioned.
This weirdo seemed to be extraordinary.
It was worth his time.
"Where is that person?" he asked.”
Seeing that the family head was interested in that strange person, Chen Huangzhong quickly said,"Patriarch, that strange person is waiting outside the gate!”
"Hmm?"
"Then bring him here. I want to meet him.”
"Please wait a moment, Patriarch," Chen Huangzhong said happily.”
Although he did not have much contact with the strange person, Chen Huangzhong felt that the strange person was a person with real talent.
If the clan could recruit him, it would definitely increase the clan's strength.
Chen Kun nodded.
Chen Huangzhong turned around and left. A moment later, he returned.
Behind him was an old man in tattered clothes.
"Patriarch, the person I'm talking to you about is this person!" Chen Huangzhong said to Chen Kun.”
The old man stretched out his bony hand and took off the bamboo hat on his head, revealing his true appearance.
Then, he cupped his hands slightly towards Chen Kun and said,"Gongsun Ze, a rogue cultivator in the mountains, greets Master Chen!”
Chen Kun sized him up. Gongsun Ze was extremely ugly. One side of his face was big, and the other side was small. There were all kinds of pockmarks on his face. His left hand seemed to be missing, replaced by a prosthetic leg.
If he went out at night, he would probably scare many people to death.
However, as the head of a large aristocratic family, Chen Kun was naturally not such a superficial person.
His expression did not change as he smiled slightly and said,"Greetings, Mister Gongsun. Please take a seat.”
Gongsun Ze could not help but have a better impression of Chen Kun when he saw that Chen Kun did not feel disgusted by his appearance.
Gongsun Ze casually sat on the chair beside him.
Not long after, two beautiful maids of the Chen family slowly walked in with tea.
A maid who served tea to Gongsun Ze was shocked when she saw Gongsun Ze's face.
She screamed and the teacup in her hand fell to the ground.
The crisp sound of porcelain shattering rang out in the room. The teacup shattered into pieces, and the fragments fell everywhere.
Seeing this, Chen Kun frowned slightly, and his eyes were filled with displeasure.
Seeing that she had caused a big trouble, the maid hurriedly knelt down.
He kowtowed as if he was pounding garlic. Tears welled up in the corners of his eyes as he said in horror,"Patriarch, this servant didn't do it on purpose. Please spare this servant's life.”
She knew that losing her composure in front of the family head's guests and smashing the teacup had already caused a huge disaster.
Even death was not an exaggeration.
If she met a master with a bad temper, she might not even be able to die.
Chen Kun was ruthless to his enemies.
However, he was still more tolerant of those who did not pose a threat to him.
He narrowed his eyes and said coldly,""I can spare your life, but you can avoid death, but you can't escape punishment.”
Two warriors of the Chen family who were standing outside walked in.
"What are your orders, Patriarch?" he asked respectfully.”
"Drag her down and hit her with twenty slaps. Send her to the servant room!”
"Yes, Patriarch."
The two warriors of the Chen family did not show any mercy to the fairer sex. They grabbed the maid's hand and dragged her out.
The maid did not feel any resentment towards Chen Kun after being punished like this. Instead, her eyes were filled with gratitude.
Because she knew that if it was any other master, she would have lost her life.
After dealing with the maid.
Chen Kun said apologetically to Gongsun Ze,""I've lost my composure and made a fool of myself in front of Mister Gongsun.”
"Clan Leader Chen, it's fine!"
Gongsun Ze waved his hand and said indifferently.
He was already used to this kind of thing.
He knew that he looked scary, which was why he wore the bamboo hat. He was afraid of scaring others.
He wanted to meet Chen Kun. If he wore a bamboo hat, it would be impolite.
That was why he took off his bamboo hat, but he didn't expect this to happen.
In order to ease the awkwardness.
Chen Kun changed the topic." I heard from Huang Zhong that Mister Gongsun insists on meeting my lord. May I know what advice you have?"”
Gongsun Ze stroked his beard and smiled." I saw the recruitment notice outside the recruitment hall. The Chen family claims to be recruiting all kinds of extraordinary people. Although I'm not talented, I want to give it a try. However, before that, I want to see the Chen family leader with my own eyes!”
Chen Kun laughed.
"Mister Gongsun, you want to see if this family head is worthy of Mister Gongsun's service, right?”
Chen Kun exposed it.
Gong Sunze did not deny it and nodded.
"Then what does Mister Gongsun want to do?”
"It's very simple. As long as the Chen Clan Leader defeats me!" Gongsun Ze smiled.”
