Chapter 699 Old Master is not having an easy time_1
After thinking for a while, Elder Master Jiang’s face took on a solemn expression as he said, "Chen’er, no matter what you do, Grandpa will support you, but you will need to pass two tests."
"The first test is to meet your great-uncles tonight. If you pass their test, your identity as the eldest legitimate grandson of the Jiang Family will be secured."
"The second test will be the ancestral ritual assessment one month from now! Butler Lu and Xuan Long should have already told you about this."
"Originally, I didn’t want to have the ancestral ritual assessment so soon; I wanted you to establish your own circle of friends in Jincheng first. However, Jiang Minghui is putting pressure on us, so Grandpa could only secure one month for you."
Elder Master Jiang continued with a look of concern, "Jiang Minghui has been very active in the company recently; I also need you to gain the family’s recognition as fast as possible.
During the ancestral ritual assessment, some key figures from the company will be there. As long as you pass the assessment, those from the neutral faction will follow your orders.
Then, when I give you the power in my hands, Jiang Minghui won’t be a threat anymore.
It’s just that... in such a short time, I fear you won’t be able to garner the support of the family’s factions in Jincheng. Relying only on the forces from Dingjing and Jinhai might be a bit weak!"
"Grandpa, you don’t need to worry about that. I will have my own methods. No matter how powerful the people Jiang Minghui brings in, it will be useless!"
Jiang Chen spoke confidently. If it had been before he went to Long Ya, he wouldn’t have had this confidence, but now, not only was he the chief instructor at Long Ya, but he had also made acquaintances with Deputy Commander Xu of the Central Defense Area. When the time comes, inviting Commander Zhang and Deputy Commander Xu to sit in will render all of Jiang Minghui’s efforts futile.
Of course, this was a last resort. If it was possible to handle the situation without involving these two heavyweights, that would be best.
After all, favors once called upon diminish, and even though he had helped them quite a bit, they are, after all, high-ranking officials—not someone you can call on time and again to handle your family affairs!
