Chapter 444 Let me tell you that, my father has seven concubines
"Misunderstanding, Lord Jiu, a huge misunderstanding!"
Du Xuchengdu was shocked to find that the moment Jiuzhi suddenly stood up, the diners around him, the vendors on both sides, and the pedestrians not far away all looked this way.
Everyone's eyes were full of vigilance, as if they were ready to pounce at any moment.
Everyone calls on Chengdu to suddenly wake up!
These are all nine-fingered people!!
Although Duxu Chengdu was not experienced in hundreds of battles, he had fought dozens of major and small battles in total, and he especially liked to charge forward, so he was regarded as a tiger general by Wang Ren.
Even if he knew he was in a dangerous situation, he would not panic, showing his composure and aura that he had experienced a war.
But at this moment he understood that what Yu Changsi said was right.
He Jiuzhi can only come politely, otherwise it will not be Zhao Cheng who dies, but himself.
A strong dragon cannot overwhelm a local weakling. It is only now that Chengdu has truly understood this truth.
"Master Jiu, this box of gold is already heavy enough. In order to see you, I didn't even bring a single entourage. How could I bring out too much at once! Don't worry, the 50,000 that was promised is 50,000, and the 50,000 will be paid after the event is completed
I won’t miss you two gold coins or one tael!”
To actually bow down to a gang leader, this feeling made Du Xuchengdu feel very humiliated!
But he couldn't help it.
What he was worried about was not that Jiuzhi would be angered and killed. He was not afraid of death, and these people might not be able to trap him. At worst, they would fight their way out.
What he was afraid of was that he would piss off Nine Fingers and ruin the business.
Killing Zhao Cheng is the most important thing!
The general once said that a real man can bend and stretch.
Bear it!
As for money, Duxu Chengdu thinks it shouldn't be a big problem.
If Zhao Cheng is not dead, he will definitely not be able to get money from Zuo Xiangfu. But if Zhao Cheng is really killed by Nine Fingers, it will not be easy to get 50,000 taels of gold from Zuo Xiangfu.
After a while, Chengdu's confidence has returned a little.
Jiuzhi looked at Duxu Chengdu with a fierce expression and said: "General Anyuan, with your performance just now, how can I trust you?"
Duxu Chengdu slapped the table and pretended to be tough: "This general only knows how to go into battle and chop off the enemy's head! This is the first time I have discussed such a business with you. If you don't understand the rules, why should I go to Master Jiu?"
Haihan. Even if Mr. Jiu can't trust me, he should trust my father, Dr. Zhongsan of Dajing Kingdom, so that he won't owe you gangster money!"
"Is your father very rich?" Jiuzhi asked.
"Hahaha!" Du Xuchengdu couldn't help laughing and said: "Let me tell you this, my father has seven concubines, five of which are aunts from the Western Regions, and they are all stunningly beautiful.
.Their combined monthly pocket money is more than this amount!"
"And my father is the disciple of the left prime minister!"
Jiuzhi's eyes widened, he thought for a while, then raised his hand and pressed it.
The surrounding diners, vendors, and passers-by immediately looked away, and the place became noisy again.
A faint smile appeared on Jiuzhi's face and asked: "When does the general want him to die?"
Duxu Chengdu breathed a sigh of relief and said: "The sooner the better."
Jiuzhi said: "I'll make arrangements right away."
Duxu Chengdu suddenly grabbed Jiuzhi's wrist and said solemnly: "It must be absolutely foolproof and it cannot involve me."
Jiuzhi glanced sideways at his wrist, and asked Chengdu to let go quickly, saying: "I trust your professionalism and keep it clean."
"To completely remove yourself, it is best if you are beside Zhao Cheng in front of everyone when the incident occurs." Jiuzhi rolled his eyes and said, "I have a perfect plan, but I need your help.
Cooperate."
"you say!"
"Three days later, the Oriental Restaurant will start a trial operation, but it will not be open to the public. Instead, guests will be invited to try the dishes in the form of banquet invitations. The restaurant is opened by the Oriental Chamber of Commerce, and Li Guanyu is the person in charge, so he will definitely invite Zhao Cheng to the banquet."
"I know, General, that you hate Zhao Cheng very much, but if you can endure the humiliation and bear the burden to please Zhao Cheng, let him take you to the banquet and sit at the same table with him. Then I will arrange for someone to attack the banquet.
, your suspicion will be gone."
"If the general agrees with this plan, I hope you can bring me in after you leave the table and let me sit at the same table with Zhao Cheng. This way, neither you nor I will be suspicious, and you will be safer."
"Is it that simple?" Duxu Chengdu was a little worried and said: "There are probably a lot of people attending the banquet that day. In this case, Zhao Cheng will go out with a master. It will not be easy to kill him in full view of everyone."
Jiuzhi said in a deep voice: "I told you, this is not something you should worry about."
Du appealed to Chengdu and said: "I am reminding you that if you want to take action, you must hit it with one strike, otherwise things will get out of control if it gets too big."
Jiuzhi sneered and said: "It seems that General Anyuan still underestimates our ability. Just watch, no one is more professional than me in this kind of business!"
"Okay!" Duxu Chengdu took a deep breath and said, "I will cooperate with you!"
“It’s a deal!”
Jiuzhi stood up slowly and said: "I will arrange manpower in the restaurant in advance. Don't look around when the time comes. Act normal and don't arouse Zhao Cheng's suspicion."
"knew."
…
Elegant manor.
Just when everyone in Chengdu was worried about Zhao Cheng running away and breaking his leg, Zhao Cheng was rolling out the second phase of his business plan.
Officials from the Ministry of Household Affairs who came from the imperial court to pick up penicillin had already arrived, and they were accompanied by Xu An throughout the process.
Zhao Cheng was in the study room of the manor, Xiao Luomu, Yuan Fei, Dong Twelve and Dong Hua were sitting together drinking tea.
It is said to be a study room, but it is actually a quiet and elegant small courtyard with three rooms available. Zhao Cheng used it as his office.
Dong Hua was making tea, and after everyone chatted for a while, Zhao Cheng narrowed the topic and said, "Let's talk about the Yiwen Club first. Xiaofei, are you confident?"
When Yuan Fei turned to Zhao Cheng, Zhao Cheng thought that Yuan Fei's job in the Yiwen Club would be perfect. Although he never came back, he used Yuan Fei as an intelligence agent along the way, which really allowed him to show his talents.
played a huge role.
The key information of several important events was obtained by Yuan Fei.
Even after Muqiaokou was recaptured by the Zhennan Frontier Army, Yuan Zhang wanted to write to the court to claim credit for Yuan Fei, but Yuan Fei refused.
He knows Zhao Cheng's future arrangements for him, so for the time being he can only be an ordinary person, the more low-key and inconspicuous the better.
Over the past month or so, Yuan Fei has made solid preparations and nodded: "I have confidence!"
Zhao Cheng said: "Then tell me what you think."
Yuan Fei stood up.
Zhao Cheng quickly pressed his hands and said: "Don't be so formal. It's just a few of us talking about things, just relax."
"yes."
Yuan Fei then sat down, sorted out his thoughts, and said: "Vice Chairman Zheng and I have met frequently these days. I have consulted her on Hongxiulou's intelligence work experience, and also coordinated with her the work after the Yiwen Club. I agree with her.
I believe that Red Sleeve Tower and Yiwen Society are still two independent institutions."
"What I mean by independence is independence in intelligence work. Due to the different businesses of the two, the scope of intelligence work can be clearly divided. From now on, Hongxiulou will be responsible for the territory of Yanchuan, and Yiwen Club will be responsible for the whole of Dajing and even abroad. After all, the scope of Yiwen Club
Our business is to collect anecdotes about important events from all over the world, which makes it easier for us to collect intelligence from far away."
"But I also think that the business of the two organizations can be separated, but the management rights should not be separated. I suggest that Vice Chairman Zheng should take charge of Yiwen Club and classify Hongxiu Tower and all branches of Hongxiu Tower as subordinate organizations of Yiwen Club
."
Hearing this, Zhao Cheng nodded with satisfaction and looked at Yuan Fei with approval in his eyes.
