The white-haired old man, surnamed Yu, is an old friend of Mr. Zhou and possesses terrifying power in Shanghai as well.
"What? Old Zhou, the person you were talking about the other day is Master Ye?"
Startled by the question, the white-haired old man was first taken aback, then asked in astonishment.
"So, do you still have any objections now?"
"I agree."
Mr. Zhou made the suggestion.
"Hmm... Alright, Master Ye should be qualified."
The white-haired old man hesitated for a moment, then nodded, agreeing to Old Zhou's request.
Master Ye's study in the Tan Palace, which is practically a museum, is a testament to his expertise.
Do you remember when Ye Chen helped Old Zhou take care of his granddaughter Xiao Xinxin at Amanyangyun, Old Zhou said he wanted to invite him to a certain place?
In fact, it was less a place and more a "powerful force".
A special, large force with only a dozen or so members.
Mr. Zhou and the white-haired old man were both members of this group.
A few days ago, Old Zhou mentioned to the white-haired old man that he wanted to invite a young man to join them.
The white-haired old man immediately refused. What a joke!
Last time, a billionaire worth around 100 billion yuan wanted to join them, but was rejected.
Now, for a young person to want to join, isn't that just wishful thinking?
But now, after seeing Ye Chen's collection, the white-haired old man wavered and finally agreed to Zhou Lao's request.
"Xiao Chen, do you remember when I said I would take you to a special place?"
Old Zhou asked Ye Chen.
"Um."
"Are you free tomorrow afternoon?"
Old Zhou continued to ask.
"I have time tomorrow afternoon."
Ye Chen answered.
"Okay, come to my house tomorrow afternoon, and I'll take you to that place."
"This will be of great benefit to your future development in Shanghai, and even across the country."
Old Zhou said mysteriously.
"good."
Ye Chen couldn't refuse Old Zhou's kind offer, so he agreed.
Afterwards, Old Zhou and the white-haired elder took their leave and departed from Ye Chen's villa.
The next afternoon, Ye Chen arrived at Zhou's house as agreed.
"Master Ye."
The white-haired old man was also there, and greeted Ye Chen upon seeing him.
"Let's go."
Old Zhou stood up.
Old driver Zhou got into a Maybach and slowly drove the three of them out of the Tan Palace.
On the way, Old Zhou introduced Ye Chen to the place they were going to soon.
"Xiao Chen, the place we're going to in a bit is called Qing Shi Yuan, which is the headquarters of our Silver Fox Merchant Guild."
"Silver Fox Merchant Guild?"
Ye Chen muttered in surprise, as he had never heard of this chamber of commerce.
"The Silver Fox Merchant Guild is a merchant guild organized by me, Lao Yu, and a few other old guys..."
Old Zhou then introduced Ye Chen to the history of the Silver Fox Chamber of Commerce.
The Silver Fox Merchant Guild is a semi-hidden guild in order to maintain a low profile.
When it comes to the Silver Fox Chamber of Commerce, in terms of reputation, it may not even be as well-known as the Wan Cai Chamber of Commerce, which invited Ye Chen before and required a net worth of 10 billion to join.
However, if it comes to power, even ten Wan Cai Merchant Guilds combined wouldn't be a match for the Silver Fox Merchant Guild.
In terms of connections and financial resources, Wan Cai Chamber of Commerce is a junior.
Those who know about the Silver Fox Chamber of Commerce are all truly wealthy and top-tier business tycoons.
Even though in the eyes of these people, the Silver Fox Merchant Guild was a terrifying force that they dared not provoke.
To date, the Silver Fox Chamber of Commerce has only a dozen or so members, most of whom are wealthy individuals from all walks of life, spread across the country.
These people possess terrifying abilities, financial resources, or connections.
Becoming a member of the Silver Fox Chamber of Commerce allows you to utilize some of the Chamber's connections and resources.
There were five founders of the Silver Fox Chamber of Commerce, one of whom has passed away. Old Zhou and the white-haired old man were among them.
To join the Silver Fox Merchant Guild, you need the approval of more than half of these elders.
Old Zhou had already persuaded another elder to agree before, and yesterday he got the white-haired old man to agree as well.
With three of the four elders agreeing, the matter is settled; today is more of a formality.
The Silver Fox Chamber of Commerce does not have a president or vice president; everyone has a voice. Relatively speaking, the four surviving founders have a higher status within the chamber.
Twenty minutes later, the group arrived at the headquarters of the Silver Fox Merchant Guild—Qingshiyuan.
This is a small, quaint manor located in the heart of Shanghai, giving it a sense of "hidden gems in the city."
Yesterday, Mr. Zhou had already notified several members in Shanghai, and these people are all big shots and top figures in Shanghai.
Upon entering the Qing Shi Garden, Mr. Zhou introduced everything in detail.
When they saw Ye Chen, they were also very surprised.
They hadn't expected Ye Chen to be so young.
Before Ye Chen arrived, the youngest member here was over thirty years old.
Because they were introduced by Old Zhou, these members were very warm and polite to Ye Chen, and did not act superior just because of their powerful status.
Ye Chen was quite satisfied with this.
After going through a series of procedures, Ye Chen finally joined the Silver Fox Chamber of Commerce, becoming the youngest member in the history of the Silver Fox Chamber of Commerce.
After becoming a member, Ye Chen also received a membership card symbolizing his identity with the Silver Fox Chamber of Commerce.
This membership card has no fancy decorations, only a lifelike silver fox logo in the very center.
If you encounter some big trouble, just show it and things will become easier.
Finally, the other members took the initiative to exchange contact information with Ye Chen and agreed to have dinner together next time they had time.
Today went exceptionally smoothly, which surprised Ye Chen.
Time flies, and the final exams are finally here.
Ye Chen's major requires him to take seven exams this time, which will take several days.
Ye Chen arrived at the designated examination room, and soon after, all the students arrived.
When the time came, the exam began.
Today's exam was quite difficult, and the questions were of medium to high difficulty. Everyone had a serious expression on their face.
Throughout the entire examination hall, only Ye Chen remained calm and composed, writing rapidly with divine inspiration.
The exam lasts two hours, but normally it takes a little over an hour to finish.
If it's slow, it might take more than an hour and a half.
When others hadn't even finished a quarter of the way through, Ye Chen suddenly stood up.
"What are you doing, young man?"
Seeing Ye Chen stand up, the proctor at the front frowned and questioned him.
He thought Ye Chen was up to something.
The other proctors and some candidates all turned to look at Ye Chen.
However, Ye Chen's answer the next second left the proctors and all the candidates dumbfounded.
"I want to hand in my paper."
Ye Chen gave a calm reply.
carry out an assignment?
He's handing in his paper?!
Only a dozen minutes have passed.
You're not kidding, are you?
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Ye Chen picked up his test paper and walked towards the podium.
Everyone was stunned by what they saw!
