Chapter 55 It’s Broken, I Became My Uncle

Chapter 55 It’s Broken, I Became My Uncle

When Tan Wenjie arrived at the Zhu Family Jilehao Paper-making Shop by car, he saw the servants of the Tan Mansion rolling up their sleeves and arguing with the Zhu Family Paper-making Shop.

There were quite a few people standing nearby watching the fun.

"The master is here!"

Someone shouted, and the noisy scene immediately quieted down.

Tan Wenjie got off the carriage and twisted his waist quietly. Not everyone could live the life of Tan Baiwan. He had a sore waist from sitting in the carriage.

There was a fat man who looked somewhat similar to Zhang Dabing, standing in front of the door with his arms outstretched. The servants of the Tan residence were arguing with him, and there were people talking nearby.

He looked across at the dozen or so strong men from the Zhu family. Although they looked ferocious, no one actually took action. After Tan Wenjie showed up, even the noise from the opposite side stopped and everyone looked over at him.

"Mr. Tan!" Hua Laojiu, who was watching the fun in the crowd, came over. He liked to help Tan Wenjie the most and was happy to give him extra money. Even if he had nothing to do, he could get some benefits by getting close to him.

"Who is the shopkeeper?" Although Tan Wenjie was asking, his eyes were looking at the fat man.

If nothing unexpected happens, this face should be the "protagonist".

"I..." The fat man puffed out his chest and took two steps forward, then raised his hand and patted his chest, "...My second uncle is! But when my second uncle dies, I will be the new manager of the Zhu family!"

"Young shopkeeper? Can you take responsibility?" Tan Wenjie shouldn't have come in person to handle this matter. He just wanted to buy some paper figures and paper horses. He didn't expect that the people under him were so incompetent that such a thing could go wrong.

"Boss Tan!" The fat man clasped his fists and bowed, as if imitating a knight in a novel, with a silly look on his face, "It's not that I don't want to do business with you, it's that my good brother Ma Nianchang has passed away, and he was also waiting for his paper figures and horses to travel. I don't want him to become a lonely ghost, so I have to refuse your business. You can go buy from other places."

"Captain Ma Lien?" Tan Wenjie frowned. He had never heard of him.

Which movie has this guy in?
"He is the only son of the Ma family, Ma Linxiang. Ma Linchang is his nickname." Hua Laojiu whispered, "Master Ma used to do business with your uncle. Ma Linchang was not good at making progress and went out to hang out. Unexpectedly, he came back dead two days ago, but he brought back a pregnant woman. The Ma family now has a successor."

When it comes to gossip, no one knows it better than people like Hua Laojiu.

The horse's thing is very long, it's really a good name.

"What's his name?" Tan Wenjie looked at the fat man.

"Pig tongue."

"Ok?"

"Zhu Hongli, also called Zhu Dachang."

Now Tan Wenjie understood. No wonder he couldn't find any acquaintances from the movie industry even if he wanted to. The name is the name, the nickname is the nickname, and the similarity between the characters in the movie is only 30% to 50%. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, it would be easy to miss a role.

You might pass by a crucial person on the street without even noticing him or her.

The fat man in front of me who looked mentally unstable was Zhu Dachang in "People Scare People". I didn't expect that he would really catch up with me.

The plot is simple. Ma Linxiang and a group of wild Taoists pretended to be dead in order to defraud the Ma family's burial objects. However, they never thought that the real wealth was not in the burial objects, but in a huge fortune of 10 taels left by the master of the Ma family. For this money, the wild Taoists decided to make a real play and kill Ma Linxiang. After his death, Ma Linxiang's soul found Zhu Dachang, hoping that he would help him get revenge.

Zhu Dachang was a very loyal person, so he lent his body to Ma Linxiang for revenge. However, he did not expect that Ma Linxiang would escape after borrowing his body for revenge. Zhu Dachang was deceived and missed the time to return to his body. From then on, he became dead. His fiancée Xiaoyun, under the guidance of Zhu's second uncle, decided to snatch Zhu Dachang's soul back from the ghost on the seventh day to continue the Zhu family's lineage.

Being both a ghost messenger and a wild Taoist priest, Tan Wenjie never thought of getting into trouble.

"Second uncle is here!"

The crowd dispersed, and a thin old man came staggering over, supported by two people.

My second uncle's face was full of wrinkles, he trembled when he spoke, and his legs swung uncontrollably. It seemed that he had returned to his childhood and was at the age of wetting the bed again.

"what's up?"

"Second uncle, this is Boss Tan..." Someone stepped forward and explained the whole story.

After listening, the second uncle nodded and bowed to Tan Wenjie: "Oh, I see, Boss Tan, please rest assured, our Jilehao is a time-honored brand, and we value integrity when doing business. We will definitely hand over everything today and will not delay the important matters of your elders."

Birth, aging, sickness and death are major events in life. If you go back on your word at the critical moment of burying your ancestors, it is easy for friends to become enemies. Second Uncle knew without even asking that all the problems could be blamed on Zhu Dachang.

Tan Wenjie nodded slightly, thinking that it was good that he was sensible. He also called him "Second Uncle" to give the sensible old man some face.

"Second uncle!" Zhu Dachang said anxiously, "You sold all the paper figures and paper horses, what should we do with Linxiang?" "Come here, I'll tell you what to do." Second uncle smiled and waved.

After Zhu Dachang approached him doubtfully, he suddenly swung his arm and slapped Zhu Dachang in the face.

"Snapped!"

The fat man weighing about 100 to 200 pounds was slapped by the second uncle and flew up on the spot, spun around and fell to the ground.

"Hiss" the second uncle blew on his palm, and the fat man's thick skin and flesh made his palm hurt.

Zhu Dachang rubbed his fat face and was about to speak when he heard his second uncle say, "Ma Linxiang died in another place, and the seventh day has passed. Why are you in a hurry to get paper figures and paper horses? He is ignorant and only knows how to make a fool of himself. Let's wait until Ma Linxiang's body is buried and the ritual is done first."

"Oh." Zhu Dachang rubbed his cheek and stood up.

This is all a farce, so this slap in the face means nothing.

"Brother Zhu~" A crisp voice suddenly came from the crowd, and everyone looked over.

A young girl in blue cloth trotted up to Zhu Dachang, looking worried: "Brother Zhu, are you okay?"

"Xiao Yun? Why are you here?" Zhu Dachang's face changed and he immediately distanced himself from the other party.

He was very averse to arranged marriages, knowing that he had no future, and he also kept his distance from his fiancée Xiaoyun who came to him by force.

"I heard something happened to the Zhu family, so I came to see you."

As he spoke, Xiaoyun subconsciously turned his head to look at Tan Wenjie, then calmly turned back and his gaze fell on Zhu Dachang again.

I have seen this sister before.

After just a quick glance, Tan Wenjie found that the other party was 50% similar to Hong Gu, but lacked the most eye-catching charm and elegance, leaving only the beautiful girl next door, which was a pity.

Moreover, the other party actually ignored his handsome appearance and just quickly glanced at him like he was looking at an ordinary person and stopped looking at him, concentrating on looking at the fat and big-eared Zhu Dachang.

There are people who are not attracted by my own handsomeness. There is something wrong!

It’s not me who has the problem, it’s Xiaoyun.

Look at how feudalism has persecuted women. They don’t even dare to look at handsome guys.

A woman in her prime was forced to marry a rooster because of a so-called arranged marriage, even if her husband died. Later, she successfully drove away the ghost and took back Zhu Dachang's soul from him, but her husband died after she gave birth to a child, and she had to become a widow and raise the child alone.

Tan Wenjie is a kind-hearted person. He is willing to sacrifice himself to help the other person break free from the cage and the destined miserable second half of life.

"Go in and carry the things. Be polite." Tan Wenjie ordered, and then said to his second uncle, "Please ask the accountant of Jilehao to come to the Tan Mansion to settle the accounts later."

"It should be so." The second uncle nodded repeatedly. Today's farce was caused by his own Zhu family. He was already very embarrassed. Since Tan Wenjie could give him face, he must also be polite. Harmony brings wealth.

"You don't have to move, we'll do it!" Zhu Dachang, who was slapped, immediately approached Tan Wenjie with a smile on his face, "Boss Tan, we'll deliver everything to your house."

At this time, Zhu Dachang just wanted to get rid of Xiaoyun's entanglement as soon as possible. He didn't want a fiancée at all. Moreover, he had just offended a big customer. If he didn't treat him well, his second uncle would definitely skin him alive.

It was a big deal that bought out all the inventory of the Paradise. If Zhu Dachang hadn't been so stubborn, someone else would have probably kowtowed to Tan Wenjie first.

It is no exaggeration to say that the things Tan Wenjie bought are enough to cover the funeral expenses of an ordinary person if he died in a street.

Tan Wenjie pointed at the servants of the Tan family who were busy moving paper figures and paper horses out and said, "That's enough."

In the end, there can be no mistakes and it still has to be done by our own people.

Zhu Dachang scratched his head and suddenly saw Tan Wenjie's carriage: "Boss Tan, I will be your coachman. I am also an expert at driving a carriage!"

"This, isn't it good?"

Tan Wenjie glanced at Xiaoyun inadvertently, but found that Xiaoyun just looked at him calmly, and then continued to look at Zhu Dachang with a loving expression on her face.

Tan Baiwan riding in the carriage, Zhu Dachang driving the carriage, and the beautiful Xiaoyun... why do they look a little familiar?

Oh no, I’ve become my uncle!
 Thank you for the 100 reward from Ruanyi
