"Yes!" Chen Yongnian replied.
Although he did not study systematically at the academy, he had heard people say that one should not offend highly respected elders.
The old man may not have much power, but he has great literary talent. However, the students under his command are the most terrifying force.
Even though Fang Ziming only gave a brief introduction, Chen Yongnian could sense that Xu Lao's disciples must be spread throughout the government and the country, which was why Fang Ziming was so eager to curry favor with him.
If a woman were valued by such a person, wouldn't she be less worried about the establishment of any girls' school?
Of course, Chen Yongnian was only thinking about it; he would never say anything inappropriate at this time.
"Old Master Xu is revisiting his old haunts and wants to lecture in Hefeng Town for a few days. After much deliberation, he has his eye on this house you have. You should quickly get your people to clean it up and provide it to Old Master Xu!"
Fang Ziming did not consult with Chen Yongnian and directly gave him orders.
He certainly didn't want to offend this important person.
Not only that, he also wanted to cultivate good relationships to advance his political career.

Then, he looked at Fang Ziming and said, "This time, I will not set any requirements for my lecture. Anyone who wants to listen, regardless of age or gender, is welcome to come."
Fang Ziming frowned upon hearing this and said, "Old Xu, what if some bad guys get in..."
"Alright, what danger could an old man like me be in? Besides, there are still people from your military unit here..." Old Xu smiled and patted Chen Yongnian's shoulder, saying, "Young man, I have high hopes for you!"
Fang Ziming could tell that Old Xu seemed to like Chen Yongnian quite a bit, so he didn't say anything else and entrusted Old Xu's safety in Hefeng Town to Chen Yongnian.
