He breathed a sigh of relief quietly.
In the office of the Shen family's head office, Shen Zheming listened to his subordinates' reports. He seemed quite calm, but the light in his eyes proved that he was constantly thinking. He was a very smart person, good at discovering what he wanted to discover from clues.
After hearing his subordinate's report, Shen Zheming's eyes flickered, and an inexplicable emotion rose from the bottom of his heart. He asked again in disbelief, "Are you sure he was with an old couple from the countryside those days?"
"Yes, Mr. Shen." The subordinate nodded heavily, "I have the accommodation registration of that couple here."
"Where did they come from?"
"Mr. Shen, the two people written in the registration book are from the south, but the waiter said that they seem to be authentic northerners."
"No letter of introduction?" Shen Zheming asked.
"The hotel is newly opened and privately owned. The management is not strict. The old man said that the letter of introduction was stolen by a thief."
"What's your name?"
"Boss Shen, their names are Zhang Tiezhu and Li Dahua." The subordinate hesitated for a moment, "Based on my experience, 90% of them are fake names. They must have been prepared in advance."
Shen Zheming nodded, his intuition was the same.
He began to think about what the relationship was between this old couple and Shen Zhehan? Of course, he knew what kind of person Shen Zhehan was.
They grew up together, and he knew exactly what kind of person he was.
He has no special abilities, but he thinks highly of himself. He has never bothered to associate with the working class or ordinary people, and naturally looks down on them. Of course, he is actually the same in this respect.
But this incident proved one thing from the side, that is, the relationship between this old couple and Shen Zhehan was extraordinary. They actually stayed together for three days and took a lot of things when they left.
The most important point is that if he is really a relative of the Shen family, or a relative of the eldest cousin's wife, there is no reason not to bring him into the Shen family manor. Doing it in a sneaky way is definitely problematic.
There are also things the waiters said. These waiters are used to seeing guests from all over the world, so generally speaking, there is no problem with them telling you where the guest is from.
However, it cannot be ruled out that these two people did come from the south.
But if they are not from the South, where are they from?
Perhaps only Shen Zhehan knows about this.
But he tried every possible means to keep it a secret because as his rival and his most hated enemy, Shen Zhehan would never tell him.
But he could tell his aunt.
Seeing that Mr. Shen was thinking, his men did not interrupt him. However, after a moment of silence in the room, he could not help but ask, "Mr. Shen, do you want to send the brothers out to investigate these two people?"
We only knew that the two people got on the train, but at that time, there were more than a dozen trains heading to all directions in Yuncheng, and there weren't even any photos. Trying to find the two people was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"You'll know sooner or later." Shen Zheming waved his hand and said in a deep voice, "Don't waste manpower. Just do your own thing."
Afterwards, Shen Zheming went to the emergency room. After talking to Mr. Lu for a few words, Shen Zheming couldn't tell how he felt.
He never liked his grandfather very much.
Even though Shen Zhehan had no qualifications and was a very mediocre person, he still put a lot of effort into training him.
He had even thought more than once that if his grandfather was no longer around, he and his father could join forces to kick that idiot out overnight.
But now he felt he was in a dilemma.
Today, Shen Zhehan is in high spirits. According to the ancestral family rules and clan regulations, he temporarily takes over the position of head of the family.
Don't underestimate this position, he holds the lifeline of the Shen family.
That is the center of power and wealth. Even if he is a descendant of the Shen family, it is impossible for him to know everything, but the head of the family is the one who controls everything.
These companies in the open are just a cover-up. The real strength of the Shen family is not here.
He and his father only knew the basics, but were still far from the real center of power.
They only knew that the Shen family secretly had a mine and a dedicated sea transport route.
Otherwise, how could the Shen family dominate Yuncheng and secure the position of the number one family with only those few companies? Several companies were acquired, and a small part of the Shen family's manor was mortgaged, but these were just a drop in the bucket.
It can't shake the foundation.
His grandfather controlled these secret industries. Not all of the people who managed these secret industries were descendants of the Shen family, but they were definitely loyal, otherwise there would have been problems long ago.
If the position of the head of the family is in the hands of the great uncle, then after a hundred years of grandfather's life, all of their families will get a share of the family property. But if the position of the head of the family is in the hands of this idiot Shen Zhehan, I can't imagine what will happen.
He admitted that he was not a good person.
However, he is a member of the Shen family, and he cannot watch the Shen family's hundreds of years of foundation destroyed in the hands of such a stupid person.
He really couldn't accept it.
So although he didn't care much about his grandfather's life or death, at this moment, he sincerely and urgently hoped that his grandfather would get better soon.
Old Lu sighed and said ashamedly, "Zheming, I am old now. I thought there should be hope, but I didn't expect this result. Your great uncle just passed away. I have an ancient recipe here. I want to try it, but I need a hundred-year-old mountain ginseng as the medicine. It is best to grow in the cold north..."
"Grandpa Lu, I understand. I'll send someone to look for him right away."
Shen Zheming walked out quickly, and Elder Lu caught up with him and warned him, "Zheming, if you find it, remember not to put it in a wooden box, no matter how precious the wood is. It's best to use a fine jade box. Also, don't let anything dirty touch it. After all, your grandfather's body is different from others, so you must be careful."
Shen Zheming listened to these words carefully, turned them over in his mind, remembered them firmly, and then left in a hurry.
It was already five o'clock in the afternoon. Shen Zhehan also hurried back home. After burning the blood-stained cotton cloth into ashes, he finally felt relieved.
However, his brows were slightly furrowed. From what Elder Lu said, Old Master Shen could still be saved, but he would need old mountain ginseng that was over a hundred years old, and it had to be from the bitter cold north.
Such old ginseng is particularly precious. Because it is not easy to grow, it is naturally more valuable than the ginseng in the south. It is also naturally very rare. Because the living environment is too harsh, it is rarely seen on the market.
