064 Mid-Autumn Festival
The head of the Cao Gang is also located by the river, and it is also the intersection of two rivers. This is a manor named Liyuan.
It is said that this is the house of a top scholar named Li in the previous dynasty. Later, it was bought by a leader of the Cao Gang and became the head of the Cao Gang.
After Chen Mu and Qingzhu arrived at Liyuan, they got off the carriage. There was a special person from the Cao Gang to take them into the banquet venue.
"Brother, please stay."
Suddenly, a strange voice came from behind him. Chen Mu turned his head and saw that he was a young man in his early twenties, dressed like a scholar, but the material of his clothes was unusual at first glance, and there was a smart and capable middle-aged man behind him.
Chen Mu asked, "You call me?"
The scholar smiled and said, "There are no one here, so I'm going to call you."
"Is there anything wrong?"
"I guess you must be here to attend the Mid-Autumn Festival, right? By chance, I was too. I thought that those who came here were all boring old men. I didn't expect that it would be great to meet Brother Taiwan. Finally, there was someone who could talk to him."
This guy talks a lot, but although he is a little familiar, it doesn't make people feel annoying.
Chen Mu could only smile, "Hello."
"By the way, my name is Su Jianming, what about you, what about you?"
"Chen Mu."
"Good luck."
When Chen Mu saw his appearance, he knew that he had never heard of his name. Instead, the middle-aged man next to him had a flash of light in his eyes, obviously knowing his reputation.
Su Jianming didn't stop and said, "I don't think he is from Jinhai's accent."
"I arrived at Jinhai a few months ago."
"Then you must have never been to many places. I will go to the east the next day and invite Brother Chen to visit Jinhai City. I will tell you..."
Su Jianming can really tell this, and he told Chen Mu along the way what fun things there are in Jinhai. He is good at speaking, and Chen Mu also listens with relish.
"...If you want to say that the most beautiful girl in Jinhai needs hundreds of Lemen, it's a pity that the girls there are neither selling their skills nor selling themselves."
Naturally, the topic turned to the romance. Listening to his comments on the romance and romance of the Jinhai Fengyue Place, he is obviously an old player.
Chen Muqi said, "Isn't Paramount a gold-selling cave? The girl inside doesn't sell herself?"
Su Jianming said, "Brother Chen doesn't know that Paramount only does gambling business. The girls inside are either superb martial arts or superb gambling skills. Although they are beautiful, they carry thorns and cannot touch them. It's a pity."
At this time, Qingzhu, who was following Chen Mu, suddenly spoke, "I heard that Mr. Su and the second lady of the Lin family are going to get married soon. I wonder if Miss Lin knows that Mr. Su is so romantic and dashing?"
Su Jianming said a little embarrassedly, "Oh, look at me, I'm talking nonsense. Actually, I heard those things just now from my friends, and I never go to those places."
Chen Mu was a little funny. This person was really interesting. He didn't blame Qingzhu. She was a girlish person, so it was normal that she couldn't listen to these things.
As for Qingzhu knows who Su Jianming’s fiancée is, it’s not surprising. The other party is qualified to attend the Mid-Autumn Festival meeting, and is obviously one of the representatives of the nine families, and is of great origin.
Su Jianming quickly turned the topic elsewhere, and Qingzhu no longer spoke.
"Brother Chen usually reads novels? A novel serialized in the Jinhai Times recently is really amazing."
Chen Mu suddenly heard him mention this and said, "Oh, is that right?"
"This novel is called The Legend of the Condor Heroes. I accidentally saw it a few days ago, and it has been out of control since then. Unfortunately, it has only been serialized to Chapter 10 so far. The taste of waiting for updates every day is really painful. I wish I could tie the author and force him to write ten chapters and eight chapters a day. I can enjoy reading it once."
Chen Mu held back his smile and asked, "Is it so beautiful?"
Su Jianming said excitedly, "That's of course. This person's writing style is fresh and refined, and it is refreshing. It can be said that it is a precedent for a school. The plot is full of twists and turns, making people immersed in it and unable to stop. It is definitely the master's work."
"Ha ha……"
Chen finally couldn't help laughing.
Su Jianming was puzzled, "Why did Brother Chen laugh?"
Chen Mu had no time to explain, so he diverted his attention, "We are here."
Led by the two gang members, they came to a martial arts field in the backyard. After passing through the martial arts field, there was a hall with the words Juyi Hall written on the plaque.
There are many seats in the hall, and some people have arrived first.
The two gang members shouted, "Young Master Su from Rongxiang Pavilion, and Master Chen from the Crescent Villa are here."
It turned out to be Rongxiang Pavilion.
Only then did Chen Mu know the origin of Su Jianming, this is a jewelry business. Compared with the other companies, such as shipping industry, gambling workshops, escort businesses, martial arts schools, etc., are much more high-end.
Then, the two gang members led them into their seats.
Su Jianming sat in the third seat on the left, while Chen Mu could only sit in the last seat.
Chen Mu didn't care either, but just observed the people in the hall. The one sitting in the main seat was a man in his thirties, with a beard and a calm temperament. He was the current leader of the Cao Gang, Li Junhong.
The other families are middle-aged and elderly people who are 40 years old. Chen Mu and Su Jianming are quite eye-catching.
After a while, all the representatives arrived. The Four Seas Gang was the last one. It was not Hunjianglong, but Gao Liehu, the most famous among the four heroes, and Hu Sihai went into seclusion. He served as the leader.
The four major forces in Jinhai, the other two, the representative of the Lu family is Guanjia Cao, who is a middle-aged man who smiles at everyone. The Paramount is Guanzhu Zhu, who is a middle-aged woman with a stern face, as if everyone owes her money.
There is also an acquaintance, Tao Zheng from Tao Ranju, who witnessed the one he competed with Xu Xinghao.
The nine forces present are the nine gang organizations with the strongest civil powers in Jinhai. Joining together is enough to influence the situation in Jinhai.
Those who can come to participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival meeting must meet two conditions: one is to have the force of the third realm, and the other is to have a certain amount of power.
Not to mention Chen Mu's force, there are now hundreds of workers in Crescent Villa, including clerks and personnel responsible for transporting and delivering goods.
Li Junhong, the leader of the Cao Gang, said, "Everyone is here, let's start. This year's Mid-Autumn Festival meeting, I invited a new member, Master Chen of Crescent Mountain Villa. I believe everyone has heard of it."
Chen Mu stood up in his seat and said, "Hello everyone, my name is Chen Mu. I hope I will give you more advice in the future."
"Gang Li, take your time."
Suddenly, one of the old men said, "The Mid-Autumn Festival meeting needs to add new members, and everyone's consent should be obtained. What do you think?"
Here comes.
Chen Mu remembered the introduction just now that the old man's surname is He, and he is the largest car dealer in Jinhai and a member of the He family car dealer.
If he had some conflicts with the He family car dealership, he would hire the He family car dealership to deliver goods when the cost was insufficient at the beginning.
Later, when he made money, he began to form his own convoy, and the people from the He family's car dealer were dissatisfied. However, both sides were relatively restrained and did not cause major conflicts.
Li Junhong said, "What does Mr. He mean?"
The old man surnamed He said coldly, "If you want to join the Mid-Autumn Festival, it depends on whether he has the qualifications. A while ago, I heard that a young man learned a set of dragon subduing and palms, which made him blown all the time. I want to learn more."
Li Junhong looked at Chen Mu and said, "Master Chen, what do you think?"
Chen Mu smiled and said, "Okay."
ps: It’s Monday again tomorrow, please vote for recommendation.
