Chapter 559
Everywhere in China, before discussing big deals, people had to eat first. This had been passed
down since ancient times, and it was no exception among the ns.
It appeared that it''s just a table of delicious food, but in fact, it contained some secrets vour.
Henry had a good knowledge of Chinese medicine and was very familiar with many rare nts.
Many rare herbs had been added to the delicacies on the table. These herbs could only be found in
the mountains and were rare in the outside world. Henry had not seen much of these rare herbs on
the way. It could be seen that the Tang n treated him very solemnly this time.
The patriarch of the Tang n, Uriah and Teresa and those middle-aged people were sitting at this
table.
These middle-aged men had a very high status in the Tang family Citadel. In the Tang family
Citadel, after the three patriarchs, these middle-aged men were ranked the highest.
Ferdinand Tang, the Master of the Tang n, was one of them.
Each of the members of the Tang n had a clear division ofbour. The Patriarch''s management
was slightlyplicated, and the patriarch would decide on any significant matter of the Tang n.
The Second Patriarch was in charge of the distribution and refining of the Tang Sect''s poison. The
poison was absolutely the most important thing for the Tang Sect.
The Third Patriarch was in charge of the creation and production of hidden weapons.
Apart from Ferdinand, the rest of the middle-aged men and women sitting on the table were in
charge of the Tang n''s guards, training the young, assigning the tasks, organizing attacks, and
so on.
Such arge n could only rely on self-sufficiency, which was not enough. Sometimes, there were
tasks to be assigned.
Uriah had told Henry that the government would cooperate with the n on some important
overseas missions. During those crucial tasks, there were always some nsmen apanying
the officials.
Now, it could be said that the most important roles of the Tang n were gathered on this table.
Logically speaking, Uriah and Teresa were not qualified to sit here, but because they brought Henry
here, they were able to sit on the table. If this cooperation were sessful, their status in the Tang
n would also be raised.

"Young man, please start eating." The patriarch of the Tang n chuckled.
"Please." Henry said politely. He picked up the chopsticks and picked up the nearest dish in front of
him. He put it in his mouth and tasted it slowly. An indescribable fragrance spread out in Henry''s
mouth. Henry couldn''t help praising, "This dish tastes delicious. It''s really well-prepared."
"Ha, ha, ha." A hoarse voice sounded from the side, and a slim older woman came from the side.
Her hair started getting grey, and her voice sounded very ufortable. "This dish was made by
me. I didn''t expect that you would praise me so much. I am really ttered."
When the old woman came over, Uriah introduced her to Henry, "Brother Zhang, this is our Second
Patriarch. She tried poison in her early years, and her throat was damaged."
Henry stood up and greeted the older woman with a fist-palm salute.
"You''re wee, Young man. This time, you''re here to save our Tang n. You''re our benefactor."
The old woman sat down on the table and said, "Let''s eat."
Henry looked at the dishes on the table. Uriah had just told him on his way here that the second
Patriarch of the Tang n was in charge of the poison test and production of the Tang Sect''s
poison. So many delicacies were actually made by a poison master. If it were someone else, they
would definitely not dare to eat too much, but Henry was obviously not one of them.
After learning that these dishes were made by the Second Patriarch of the Tang n, Henry still
swallowed and tasted carefully. He was not afraid at all, which made the patriarch''s evaluation of
Henry increase a little.
Henry asked curiously, "May I ask where the Third Patriarch is?"
"Ha, ha." The patriarch chuckled. "My younger brother is devoted to the development of the
mechanism. He is still busy with his designs and drawings. I hope you can forgive him for not
coming here."
"Patriarch, don''t say that." Henry cupped his hands and said, "It''s my honour to have so many
predecessors to wee me today."
The dinner continued. A middle-aged man in a red robe looked at Henry and said, "Henry, right? I''m
curious, how did your Zhang n decline?"
As soon as the man in the red robe finished his words, the patriarch''s face changed. In the n, it
was a big taboo to ask the reason why one n had declined!
The patriarch shouted at that man and gestured him to stop talking. But he seemed not to see it and
kept staring at Henry, waiting for Henry''s answer.
Henry smiled slightly and said, "The number of people declined. As time passed by, there was only
me."
"Oh?" The man was surprised. "From your way of doing things, I thought your n was killed by the
enemy. After all, ording to your experience, what you have done is a bit arrogant. If your father
was like this, it''s normal that your n had declined."
Henry shook his head. "Everyone has a sense of awe in their hearts. If a person doesn''t have the
sense of awe, for sure, they will think that everyone is arrogant.”
Obviously, the man in red was provoking Henry, but Henry replied calmly.
From the Tang n''s perspective, Henry was a young man.
In the underground world, Henry was respected by countless senior masters. He was known as the
Conqueror and had taken part in many events. Henry came here as a junior, and he was respecting
traditional Chinese etiquette. In terms of age, Henry was indeed a junior for the Tang n. But in
terms of personal strength and status, Henry did not think that these people were qualified to
educate him.
In this world, the strength was the most important, especially among the ns! Although the Tang
n was a n with a lot of strength, the Conqueror was not weak either, and the Holy ce, the
Radiant Ind, was not just some random ce!
When the man in red heard Henry''s words, his face suddenly changed, and he was full of anger.
"Junior, you are too arrogant when you speak."
Henry shrugged his shoulders, picked up a piece of vegetable and put it into his mouth. He said
slowly, "Confidence and arrogance are two different things. If you say I''m confident, I can ept it. I
don''t think what I said in front of you was arrogant!"
"Young man, you!" The man in red reached out his hand and mmed the table. He was about to
say something.
"Enough!" The patriarch said impatiently and red at the man in red. "There are rules at the dinner
table!"
The man in red didn''t dare to ignore the patriarch''s words this time, so he quickly agreed. He red
at Henry with hatred and didn''t say anything.
Henry''s expression did not change. Before he came here, he had thought that this trip would not be
smooth, and he expected that he would get into some trouble. Whatever these people from the
Tang n did, he would be able to deal with it!
