Poor Family: I reached the top by marrying a wife

Jiang Chen looked at the county magistrate with nervous eyes.

He now knew that the noble man the county magistrate had been talking about was a senior eunuch, Eunuch Zhang.

That’s the godfather of the woman in leather jacket!

In the past two days, Jiang Chen has heard a lot about this eunuch Zhang.

But no matter who it was, no one said anything good about this eunuch Zhang.

Moreover, the other party has great power...

This……

If that eunuch Zhang really wanted to attack him and wanted the formula of honeycomb charcoal, then...what should he do?

For the sake of his life, it’s not that he can’t give it to the other party.

But what he was afraid of was that if he gave it to the other party, the other party... would also want his life!

If that's the case, then he's dead! ?

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen hurriedly looked at the wooden prosthetic leg on the table.

If General Luo is involved... I don't know if I can save my life!

"Ugh!"

Just as Jiang Chen was daydreaming, the county magistrate sighed, "My dear nephew, your uncle is sorry for you!"

"Second Uncle didn't expect things to develop to this point!"

"If it really doesn't work, just hand over the formula. I...I will beg that person to spare your life even if it costs me my own!"

The county magistrate looked sincere at this time.

But when Jiang Chen looked at the other party, his heart was full of vigilance.

The county magistrate must have known long ago that eunuch Zhang was not a good person!

But the county magistrate insisted on bringing him here!

Before, Jiang Chen thought that the county magistrate might want to take him to see the world, or... thought it was appropriate for him to speak up.

But now that Jiang Chen thought about it carefully, he felt that there might be something he didn't expect!

"Second Uncle, you are too polite. If something really happens to me, I won't ask you to plead for me. I just ask you to help me take good care of my family!" Jiang Chen said in a deep voice.

……

"This... How can this be possible! You are my nephew, I will never let anything happen to you!"

"Jiang Chen, don't be too pessimistic. That person doesn't necessarily want to take the formula away!"

"When he saw the honeycomb charcoal, he was very happy and excited, but he suddenly said he wanted to see you, and I couldn't understand it."

"The one who is famous for his odd temper."

"So, you... better be more careful!" said the county magistrate with concern on his face.

"Okay, Uncle, don't worry, I got it!"

Jiang Chen smiled at the county magistrate and didn't say anything more.

In this situation, life and death depends on fate!

If it doesn't work, I can only use General Luo's reputation as a cover!

If General Luo doesn't work, then... I can only rely on what's in my pocket!

Jiang Chen couldn't help but clench his pockets when he thought of this!

That... is his only bargaining chip!

The next morning, the county magistrate took Jiang Chen out.

After going out, they got on the carriage that had been waiting for them, and were taken to a large house.

After arriving at the house, a young man with a white face and no beard, dressed in a servant's uniform, said to the county magistrate: "Just wait here~ Our master only wants to see you gentlemen~"

"This……"

The county magistrate was slightly startled. He wanted to speak, but was scared back by the young man's cold and murderous eyes!

Jiang Chen was also shocked when he saw the look in the young man's eyes!

This young man...you can tell at first glance that he is not a simple person!

As expected, he is the subordinate of Eunuch Zhang!

Under the guidance of the young man, Jiang Chen came all the way to the backyard.

After reaching a door, the young man said to Jiang Chen calmly: "Go in, our master is waiting for you inside~"

……

"Thank you, sir!" Jiang Chen said politely, then gritted his teeth and walked into the yard.

As Jiang Chen walked into the yard, the young man outside also closed the yard door.

"this……!?"

When Jiang Chen saw this scene, he felt a chill down his spine!

Why close the door?

Aren't you going to let him out?

But now that things have come to this, we can only move on!

Jiang Chen walked forward slowly. Although the scenery in the yard was beautiful, Jiang Chen was not in the mood to pay attention to it.

After all, the future is still uncertain whether you will live or die!

Finally, after walking for about five minutes, Jiang Chen saw a figure in white.

However, the figure was bending over with his back to him, so he couldn't see what the other person looked like.

But looking at the other person's back, he seemed a little thin.

Could it be... that this is the chief eunuch, Eunuch Zhang?

Jiang Chen swallowed his saliva, gritted his teeth and walked over.

But when Jiang Chen walked up to the figure, he was dumbfounded!

"You...you are..."

Jiang Chen stared at the man blankly. He was actually digging up the remaining dirt after the honeycomb coal was burned!

Because honeycomb coal is made of clay and coal powder, after burning, pieces of yellow soil will remain.

The shape is still the shape of honeycomb briquettes, but the color is yellow.

"Haha, quite interesting. After the charcoal is burned, it turns into lumps of earth instead of ash. Could it be that... this honeycomb charcoal is made of earth by you?" The man in white didn't look at Jiang Chen, but used the branch in his hand to dig out the earth while smiling faintly.

The voice of the man in white did not sound as feminine and sharp as those eunuchs, but instead had a gentle and elegant feeling.

Moreover, the other party's appearance was very elegant, completely different from the sinister appearance that Jiang Chen had imagined!

……

"Your Excellency, most of the material of this... this honeycomb charcoal is indeed soil." Jiang Chen said respectfully, but his legs were shaking a little at this time.

"It really is mud. Then... why is it more durable than ordinary charcoal?"

"What did you get in with?" the man in white asked again.

"This……"

Jiang Chen fell silent after hearing this.

This honeycomb coal is mixed with coal powder and is naturally durable.

But he can't say it!

If I say it out loud, won’t I be exposed?

This this……

"Hehe, don't you want to say it?"

The man in white saw Jiang Chen didn't say anything and actually laughed.

Moreover, he threw the branch in his hand to the ground.

The man in white clapped his hands casually, straightened up and looked at Jiang Chen.

The moment Jiang Chen actually faced the man in white, he instantly felt a tremendous pressure!

It is an invisible pressure, the inherent power of the superior!

Jiang Chen was trembling all over due to this pressure, and even had the urge to kneel down!

However, as a time traveler, it is really embarrassing to kneel down when confronted by someone!

Jiang Chen gritted his teeth and persisted. He raised his head and looked at the man in white: "Sir, there are many formulas required for the honeycomb charcoal. I am afraid I can't tell you all!"

"Really?"

The man in white's eyes moved slightly when he heard this.

He smiled faintly and said, "In that case, just give me the formula!"

"I'll look back for myself."

Jiang Chen was shocked when he heard this!

Knew it!

This damn eunuch really wants his recipe!

He had prepared a recipe, but what if he lost his life after handing it over?

Jiang Chen's mind moved, and he gritted his teeth and asked, "May I ask, sir, but Master Zhang is in front of me!"
