Chapter 726: Chapter 726
To be honest, Liu Zhizhong was indeed quite shocked.
The Lei Family's ability to display such power was truly extraordinary.
Folk beliefs talk about respecting Fengshui, metaphysics, and paying homage to the deceased as supreme. Well, in the case of Lei Duo, who's the supreme?
Lei Duo wanted cremation, and he was the supreme one!
For the rest, regardless of whether you've picked a good date for the funeral rites, just put them on hold— the crematory furnaces won't even be fired up for you!
In the face of absolute dominance, Fengshui metaphysics and whatnot were all mere trifles! And the deceased here was just a man in his early thirties.
In folk custom, that would imply there shouldn't be any grand funeral. But at their level of society, even in this situation, is it not excessively grand? Yet this scenario overpowered ordinary people, didn't it count as excessively grand after all?
Liu Zhizhong took a deep breath on the spot, nodded, and said, "The Lei Family's strength, being able to reach this level of power, really has taught me a lot! What kind of family is it?"
Qian Xuan smiled, "No special family, just an ordinary one, perhaps with a bit more favorable treatment."
"Also, Lei Duo's family doesn't have Lei as their surname, it's Zheng. I've just always been used to calling him Lei Duo," added Qian Xuan, emphasizing again.
"Actually, his name isn't even Zheng Leiduo; it's Zheng Sanjing. I call him Lei Duo because ever since he was little, he's always been trouble-making, causing a lot of 'thunder' to erupt," Qian Xuan explained further.
Once again speechless, he chuckled…
However, in the script for the funeral eulogy that Yang Bingbing provided, Zheng Sanjing's name indeed wasn't mentioned, ah...
At that time, Liu Zhizhong couldn't be bothered to inquire, thinking the deceased was simply called Lei Duo. Who would have thought that they actually have the surname Zheng, and his name was Zheng Sanjing! Now, Liu Zhizhong figured it was probably for confidentiality? Maybe the family name would only be revealed when you got to the scene.
But speaking of the Zheng Family... within Ningnan Province, there hasn't been any local notable with the surname Zheng who historically had been particularly stronger, right?
Liu Zhizhong suddenly remembered there had been a vice governor with the surname Zheng in the past, but that was a low-ranking one. Scouring his historical knowledge, he confirmed that this vice governor was indeed the most significant local Zheng representative in the officialdom of the province for nearly a century.
Boy, indeed the Zheng and Qian families were such extraordinary clan powers. The Xiang family of Ningnan Province was the same, right?
However, the fact that someone was planning to forcefully buy out even the Zheng Family industries, what the hell did that signify? Forget it, forget it, indeed big fish eat little fish, and little fish eat shrimp!
This world, it seems, has an invisible side to it as well, ah… The most update n0vels are published on 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩✶𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚✶𝕟𝕖𝕥
From this point of view, leveraging Zheng Sanjing's funeral to "fall ill" would certainly be effective! At least, if Qian Xuan said he could persuade the General Propaganda Bureau, then it meant he could.
Retiring! No longer being an appalling tool! Stable!
Of course, Liu Zhizhong also expressed his gratitude to Qian Xuan, "Brother Xuan, with your protection, this matter is settled. I'm very thankful to you…"
"You're done now, go have tea and chat with Teacher Luo, develop your relationship. I'll go handle the matter with Yalan Hospital."
After saying this, Qian Xuan started his electric wheelchair and left without any dilly-dallying.
Yet Liu Zhizhong and Luo Shuxiu found themselves somewhat embarrassed and blushing, feeling simultaneously happy and awkward. Who would believe such a thing if it were told?
However, Liu Zhizhong was nosy and asked another question: "At the funeral, will the Xiang family send someone?"
Qian Xuan turned his head back in the wheelchair and pointed at his own head, "Little brother, use your brain, would you? You're asking me this?"
Then he turned his head and went away again—oh, rolled away in the wheelchair.
Liu Zhizhong couldn't help but smile awkwardly, gently tapping his forehead, "Hehe… It's obvious, inevitably so, hehe…"
In his mind, since Zheng Sanjing, Xiang Wenhua, Qian Xuan, and Feng Xiaoyue had a story back then, how could Xiang Wenhua not attend to send off Master Zheng on his last journey?
But would Xiang Wenhua propose to Feng Xiaoyue at the funeral, seeking to marry the new widow? Perhaps... ah... love, sometimes it's such a troublesome thing that can be fatal…
