Lu Ruolin and others were not from Guangdong Province, but Chen Wenhua introduced and explained in a low voice to Chen Chu from time to time. At last count, almost many high-ranking families from Guangdong Province were here.
Even people from the officialdom came...
Among these families, some of them have names that even Lu Ruolin and others are familiar with! Many people have heard of it.
After Chen Wenhua’s introduction and Lu Ruolin’s and others’ whispered supplements, Chen Chu finally understood the horror of these people.
Although everyone was polite to Chen Chu, if it had been before, Chen Chu probably wouldn't have been qualified to see them.
There is no chance to see them. Their itinerary and travel are not visible to ordinary people. They are just two parallel lines that never intersect.
In other words, they are truly in two different worlds from ordinary people.
Even though we are under the same blue sky and located on this ancient land, there are some places that are really not accessible to ordinary people...
It may not be intuitive to say this. As long as you know that the Chen family (Chen Baijia) of City A was once a member of it, you should have a rough impression.

"Hello, nice to meet you..." Chen Chu has said this to countless people, and he already has a lot of business cards and contact information in his hands.
It is very thick, mainly because it is very heavy, and I don’t know what material it is made of.
Some of the business cards are very exaggerated. They should be made of pure gold. They have very exquisite processing techniques and some very recognizable traditional patterns are engraved on them. It is really a masterpiece of craftsmanship.
When no one came to visit Chen Chu again, Lu Ruolin held a card that was more like a seal than a business card, pointed at the beautiful and ancient patterns on it and said: "Chen Chu, these are patterns that represent the true heritage of a family. .”
“If there is a family that has inherited this pattern, its heritage is almost unimaginably long and grand.”
“This is the family emblem, which can also be said to be the family crest.”
“Do you think these patterns look very ancient?”
Chen Chu looked at this extremely delicate card carefully and couldn't help but nodded: "Well, it is indeed very ancient, with a primitive and rough feeling, and it is written in words, right?"
Lu Ruolin whispered: "Yes, because the predecessors of these clan emblems are hieroglyphics, oracle bone inscriptions, and even more ancient ones are totems."
“Our ancient Dahua family heraldry actually developed relatively slowly because we invented writing very early, and writing can convey messages more directly than heraldry.
This has also resulted in the development of our ancient family emblems being much slower than in the West, because one word (hieroglyph) can represent many things, and there is no need to create another totem as a logo. "
“This is not backwardness, on the contrary, it is advancement and cultural advancement.”
“Unlike the West, where the writing is long and a surname has several or even a dozen words.”
“It is precisely because of the inconvenience of Western writing and for the sake of simplicity that ancient European aristocrats created unique totems to represent their family emblems.”
“Now, whether at home or abroad, the heritage of a family with a family emblem and family crest must be very long-lasting.”
“At least a hundred years!”
“Well, this excludes some Western families, because their rise was very short, and there was not enough time for them to accumulate family heritage. Everything they had was plundered, and they had nothing of their own.”
When he said this, Lu Ruolin's eyes were a little serious and his meaning was unclear.
ˆ˜
Because of the explanations from Lu Ruolin and others, Chen Chu no longer felt tacky when looking at some of the cards. With this ingenious processing technology, coupled with the family emblems and family patterns, they revealed the background of the big family. Chen Chu put away all these business cards.
I don’t know what else happened at today’s birthday party, but I really got to know a lot of people, although they were all older men of my father’s generation.
But whether in modern times or ancient times, men of this age are the real top class of society, the small group of people who control most of society's resources.
And not only these long-standing aristocratic families, but also some people in the officialdom, big officials.
If those aristocratic families just controlled most of the resources of society, then these people have controlled these aristocratic families...
This is just a metaphor, anyway, it just illustrates the status gap between the two.
Chen Chu really expanded a circle of top-level network resources today. At least nine out of ten people in the top circles in Guangdong Province have met Chen Chu.
Although Chen Chu didn't know what the use of these connections was...because he didn't usually use them at all...
You can ask your friends for small things, ask Uncle Chen for some troublesome things, and let Chen Chu handle the big things personally.
So far, Chen Chu's handling methods are still very simple and effective. If it is solved, it really leaves no consequences.
After all, there was no other way. Chen Chu didn't have the ability to solve the problem, so he could only solve the problem by solving the problem. It worked.
ˆ˜
No one at the scene bothered Chen Chu too much, because it was obvious that he was perfunctory and careless.
Everyone present is a smart person, how could they not see Chen Chu’s impatience?
They wouldn't have dared to think about this before, but they didn't expect that one day they would be disliked by others.
But when they thought of the news they had recently learned from a certain channel, they did not dare to have an attack.
As a family with a long heritage, even if some of them are not very old, at least they are from the family before and after the founding of the People's Republic of China.
As such a family, their news channels are also very well-informed.
Hmm, they are indeed very well-informed. A few of them recently found out about a treasure that is spread among the upper class of Dahua.
I heard that the mountain spring water under a natural medicine field deep in the Daxingan Mountains has various magical effects.
As real big shots, of course they have heard of some weird things. Although many of them have been explained clearly by science recently, there are still many things that still cannot be explained by science.
For example, the true inheritance of traditional Chinese medicine. Using modern research, the true inheritance of traditional Chinese medicine is not like something that could have been invented five thousand years ago...
Instead, it’s like postmodern medicine! Like more advanced civilized medical technology.
Because the traditional Chinese medicine that has been truly and completely passed down is so amazing, it can actually discover meridians and acupuncture points that even modern technology cannot detect.
You must know that in the early days, Western countries did not recognize the legal status of traditional Chinese medicine, thinking that it was a fake thing similar to 'witchcraft'.
It was not until the rapid development of science and technology in recent years that the most advanced instruments were used to detect the existence of some major meridians, proving the authenticity of traditional Chinese medicine and giving the West a big slap in the face!
Although the West has been frantically plundering the ancient prescriptions of traditional Chinese medicine, it is even more ruthless than Xiaoli and Xiaobangzi!
Especially after discovering the existence of meridians...(End of this chapter)
