Liao Huashan may have the Mu Family background, but he's far from being as impressive as the Mu Family Housekeeper.
He's merely the head of a restaurant subsidiary under the Mu Family.
Though considered part of the Mu Family, he's the most peripheral kind.
He's nowhere near as central as the Housekeeper!
But Liao Dongqiang often brags to others, claiming his dad is the Mu Family Housekeeper.
In the past, although Liao Huashan was aware of this, he never stopped it.
Back then, the Mu Family was at its zenith, and claiming to be the Mu Family's Housekeeper wasn't a bad thing.
But what's the situation now?
The Mu Family has been destroyed.
Now, everyone is trying their best to sever ties with the Mu Family, let alone voluntarily getting closer.
Especially since Chen Feng, the one who destroyed the Mu Family, is right here.
If he still dared to associate with the Mu Family, wouldn't he be asking for death?
So, Liao Huashan, in fear, quickly explained, "Mr. Chen, that's all nonsense from my ignorant son, bragging. Actually, I'm not the Mu Family's Housekeeper at all. I'm just the general manager of one of the restaurant subsidiaries under the Mu Family!"
"So, your relationship with the Mu Family isn't that close, huh?"
Chen Feng slightly curled his lips, smiling as he asked.
"Absolutely, and to be honest, despite working for the Mu Family, I've always been dissatisfied with them because the family is unkind, often committing bad deeds. I must say, Mr. Chen, you truly fulfilled a heavenly mandate by taking down the Mu Family!"
Liao Huashan nodded his head, speaking with a face full of flattery.
At the end, he didn't forget to flatter Chen Feng a bit.
Of course, regarding these, Chen Feng merely shook his head with a slight smile, not taking it to heart.
In Chen Feng's eyes, this Liao Huashan is glib-tongued and also a fence-sitter.
However, this Liao Huashan, being one among the many remnants of the Mu Family,
his identity can indeed be leveraged!
After all, the Chen Family is currently at the critical juncture of gathering remnants of the Mu Family.
And those remnants of the Mu Family are surely hesitating about whether to submit to the Chen Family.
Since the Chen Family has just been established and also just destroyed the Mu Family,
the remnants of the Mu Family surely distrust the Chen Family, fearing that after joining, they'll be excluded or even wiped out.
This makes them feel very insecure.
Yet if, at this time, we first gather Liao Huashan in advance, offer him some benefits, and set him as an example,
the rest of the Mu Family remnants will see this and think that the Chen Family is actually quite reliable, not only won't they be destroyed by joining but will have even better prospects.
In this way, they'll continuously come and pledge allegiance.
The gathering efforts over at Mu Dongcheng will also become much easier.
With this in mind, Chen Feng's eyes lit up, and then he looked at Liao Huashan with a slight smile, saying: "I have a good deal here. Are you interested?"
Seeing the sly smile on Chen Feng's face, Liao Huashan's heart skipped a beat, and he took a deep breath, trembling as he asked: "Wh…what good deal?"
"You should know, I've just established the Chen Family, and now I'm gathering the remnants of the Mu Family. As one of the remnants, would you consider joining us?"
Chen Feng asked with a smile.
"Uh…"
Liao Huashan's face instantly changed.
He knew it; there was no good news indeed.
After all, the Chen Family now is like a big tiger.
And these remnants of the Mu Family are like pieces of fat meat.
Who knows whether they'll be braised or stewed once they're brought forward!
So regarding joining the Chen Family, Liao Huashan was actually somewhat reluctant internally.
It wasn't that he was entirely unwilling, but he didn't want to be the first to send himself to the tiger's mouth.
He wanted to wait and see if other remnants joined the Chen Family first, and if it was indeed safe, then he'd join.
This seemed like a safer option.
However, his plan might be falling apart now.
Seeing Liao Huashan silent for a long time, Chen Feng narrowed his eyes and coldly asked: "What's wrong? Are you unwilling?"
"It's just that…I'm not unwilling."
Liao Huashan smiled awkwardly, momentarily unsure how to respond.
He now wanted to refuse but didn't dare.
Because, he feared for his life!
"I know what you're thinking. Rest assured, as long as you are the first to join the Chen Family, you absolutely won't be treated poorly. You're just the general manager of that restaurant subsidiary, right? Once you join the Chen Family, all of the Chen Family's companies in the restaurant industry will be under your management. How's that? Are you satisfied with this condition?"
Chen Feng slightly curled his lips, smiling as he spoke.
Upon hearing this, Liao Huashan was stunned, then a hint of fervor flashed in his eyes.
Because the condition Chen Feng offered was incredibly tempting!
Anyone with eyes can see that the rise of the Chen Family is unstoppable.
Before long, it'll be one of the new four major families, with power and status not weaker than the former Mu Family.
After all, Chen Feng, this ruthless figure, is commanding.
As for whether the remnants of the Mu Family are willing to submit, it doesn't significantly affect the Chen Family!
Even without them, the Chen Family can still thrive and dominate the Coastal area.
If one could become the head of the Chen Family's restaurant industry, then in terms of identity and status, it's far superior to what Liao Huashan has now.
Right now, he's merely the general manager of a restaurant subsidiary, and it's a largely unrecognized position.
Furthermore, losing the Mu Family as a backing puts the continued operation of the company in question.
So when comparing the two, Liao Huashan was instantly moved!
Because there's no reason to refuse.
"Are you…sure it's true?"
Liao Huashan swallowed hard, looking at Chen Feng, seeking confirmation.
"Do I have a need to lie to you?"
Chen Feng replied plainly.
"No…there's no need!"
Liao Huashan shook his head quickly, then took a deep breath, looking at Chen Feng, deciding right then: "Mr. Chen, I, along with the restaurant company I manage, will officially submit to the Chen Family, and to you from now on!"
"Very good!"
Chen Feng slightly curled his lips, then continued: "You'll also have to help persuade other remnants over there!"
"Don't worry, Mr. Chen, since you're treating me like this, those people will certainly rush over to pledge allegiance once they know. Leave it to me!"
Liao Huashan promised confidently, patting his chest.
"Well, you can leave with your son now."
Chen Feng smiled slightly, saying.
"Alright, Mr. Chen…uh no, Family Master, let's meet again another day!"
Liao Huashan looked at Chen Feng, respectfully saying.
Moreover, to show the sincerity of his submission, he directly changed the way he addressed Chen Feng.
This made Chen Feng curl his lips with a slight smile, nodding.
Seeing this, Liao Huashan then took Liao Dongqiang and left Bixiang Garden...
