Things turned out as Lin Shu expected. Lin Shu, who was busy outlining the quantitative experiment process in the laboratory, was called over by Xiang Zhitian.

Sitting in Xiang Zhitian's office was a dignified-looking middle-aged man, accompanied by Yu Jinliang and Yu Jinghan. Seeing Lin Shu come in, Yu Jinghan smiled and nodded, as if he was worried about his sister making a fool of himself.

He didn't take the matter to heart at all, but Yu Jinliang looked a little serious, exuding a hint of oppression in his silence.

As for the middle-aged man, he had a friendly smile on his face, as if looking at his outstanding junior, and there was a hint of relief in his eyes. This feeling made Lin Shu feel a little nauseous. This guy's acting seemed to have become a

An instinct.

"You are Lin Shu, you are so young! I am that police chief Xie Jiansheng. Nice to meet you, haha."

Lin Shu looked at Xie Jiansheng who stood up enthusiastically and extended his hand to shake his hand. His eyes narrowed and he nodded: "Oh, Mr. Xie, are you here to arrest me?"

Seeing that Lin Shu had no intention of shaking hands, Xie Jiansheng's face froze slightly, and then his smile became even brighter: "How can this happen? Of course, if I can catch you, Lin Shu, and stay in our Han country, you will become the leader of the Han country."

Citizen, I am very happy, but you have to be willing to do this, haha!"

"Okay, we all know each other, take a seat Lin Shu, I know your time is precious, but some things must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise everyone will be uncomfortable."

Lin Shu glanced at Xiang Zhitian, who was sitting firmly on the sofa, nodded and said, "Then let's solve it as soon as possible, but how to solve this matter? Is Chairman Yu here for this matter too?"

Yu Jinliang shook his head and said, "My precious granddaughter came to my place and was crying non-stop. I came here to avoid trouble, haha."

"Me too!" Yu Jinghan said with a smile.

Lin Shu pursed his lips and smiled. There was something in Yu Jinliang's words, but Yu Jinghan was very calm about it.

Lin Shu turned his attention to Xie Jiansheng again: "How does Mr. Xie want to solve this matter?"

"First of all, I would like to apologize to you, Mr. Lin Shu, for my son's behavior. This is all due to my lack of discipline. I'm sorry!"

"Chief Xie, you are so polite. You are the chief of police. I am just a common man. I cannot bear your apology. If it is just an apology, it is not necessary. I have no intention of pursuing this matter further. I don't care much about it.

Influence."

Xie Jiansheng narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a smile: "As Mr. Lin Shu said, the impact of this matter is indeed very important to us. After all, I have a position, and many things will be out of my control, such as this matter."

"No need to elaborate!" Lin Shu reached out and interrupted Xie Jiansheng: "Just tell me what you plan to do. I don't understand those things. Even if you say it, I'm afraid I won't understand."

Xiang Zhitian raised the corners of his mouth slightly. It seemed that Lin Shu not only understood Xie Jiansheng's purpose, but also guessed the purpose of Xie Jiansheng's visit, so he started to raise the price!

Xie Jiansheng didn't seem to care about Lin Shu's repeated refusal to give face. He still smiled cordially and said: "You see, our Xie family is still very influential in Han Dynasty, so in order to save face, something must be done about this matter."

As, what I mean is, can Mr. Lin Shu make an appropriate statement and express his sincerity tactfully? Of course, our Xie family will definitely take practical actions to compensate Mr. Lin Shu and Miss Zhou."

Lin Shu looked at Xie Jiansheng like a fool: "General Manager Xie, the right and wrong are obvious to all. How do you want me to be tactful? Do you want me to take the initiative to offer wine to your son to reconcile? Or should I publicly declare that I was wrong?"

Xie Jiansheng smiled with some disappointment, turned to look at Yu Jinliang, and looked at Xiang Zhitian with interest. Yu Jinliang nodded and said: "Lin Shu, I think it is better to reconcile this matter. Just now General Manager Xie also I said it. You can make up for it in private, as long as it makes the Xie family look good. If you don’t think it’s okay to take the initiative to have a drink, how about I do it? "

Lin Shu frowned. How could Yu Jinliang really want to serve a drink? After all, he was a junior, and he seemed to have a quarrel with Yu Jingya. If Jin Liang came forward to serve a drink to make peace, he would become He's an arrogant person who doesn't know what's good for him, and he may also arouse the hostility of everyone in the Magic Machine Sect.

Yu Jinliang was completely retreating in order to make progress, relying on his old age and trying to force himself to come forward to have a drink and reconcile.

Lin Shu said seriously: "Chairman Yu, do you think my behavior only represents myself? Also, the initiator of this matter is not us, but the son of General Manager Xie. Could it be that General Manager Xie feels that admitting his mistakes is a disservice to the Xie family?" Is this a very unfavorable behavior? If so, then my sect and the Magic Machine Sect also have no obligation to help the Xie family recover from the so-called loss of reputation!"

"this"

"Chairman Yu," Lin Shu interrupted Yu Jinliang's words and firmly grasped the initiative: "Since there are differences, let's solve the problem according to the rules between sects. We in Tang State like to duel. I heard that Han The country likes to use gambling to fight, so we choose a method recognized by both parties, and the loser makes peace with the wine, so that everyone can make peace!"

Xiang Zhitian smiled slightly when he heard this. Lin Shu was very smart. He seemed to see some troubles behind Xie Jiansheng at a glance. Xiang Zhitian was actually a little strange. How could Lin Shu see that Xie Jiansheng had Wentian Zong and Demon behind him? Under the pressure of Jin Liang, Lin Shu naturally chose a method that would neither offend Jin Liang nor Wentianzong, and at the same time preserve the reputation of Xuanmen.

Originally, Xiang Zhitian wanted to take this opportunity to drag Lin Shu towards Wentian Sect! Compared with Lin Shu, Xie Jiansheng was a scumbag. Unfortunately, Yu Jinliang didn't seem to have this understanding, and Xiang Zhitian was secretly grateful for this. !

"I think this is a good idea!" Xiang Zhitian immediately spoke up to support Lin Shu's opinion. If he didn't speak up, he would inevitably make Lin Shu think that Wentian Sect was a bit slippery. Of course Xiang Zhitian didn't want to give Lin Shu any trouble. Such an impression.

Xie Jiansheng was a little dissatisfied. Lin Shu's method could certainly change the original question of who is afraid of whom, Xuanmen or the Xie family, to the question of who has good luck and good vision, Xuanmen or the Xie family. It was a clever change. , it’s not unacceptable, but it’s definitely different from Xie Jiansheng’s previous expectations.

Now that Xiang Zhitian had clearly stated his preference for Lin Shu, Xie Jiansheng couldn't help but look at Yu Jinliang, and Xiang Zhitian smiled secretly in his heart. As long as Xie Jiansheng continued to get closer to Yu Jinliang, Lin Shu's views on the Magic Machine Sect would change. The worse it is, on the other hand, the Wentian Sect who lost Xie Jiansheng in order to support Lin Shu will leave a more favorable impression on Lin Shu! Abandoning a secular family that is wavering and trying to please both sides, and getting the Xuanmen Agreed, Xiang Zhitian felt that he had made a lot of money!

Yu Jinliang looked at Xiang Zhitian with some vigilance, obviously confused by Xiang Zhitian's choice. Is this because when Xie Jiansheng's tendency is irreversible, is Xiang Zhitian making use of the waste? Or has Xiang Zhitian already made a decision? ?However, judging from the timing of Xiang Zhitian's statement, it seems more like the former! In this way, he has won against Xie Jiansheng, and the Magic Machine Sect will gain the allegiance of the Xie family, thereby strengthening the penetration of power into Caiyungang.

Yu Jinliang's mind was spinning rapidly. Although the Xie family was an important chess piece for the Magic Machine Sect to infiltrate Caiyungang and the Han Kingdom, the Xuanmen could not be underestimated. The rapid rise of the Xuanmen in the Tang Kingdom and the Xia Kingdom The Lin family has received strong support. This force is growing very fast, and the prospects are promising. Of course, they cannot offend them.

In fact, it is difficult to say that what Yu Jingya did was without Yu Jinliang's connivance, or that it was a casual test by Yu Jinliang. Through this incident, Yu Jinliang did get a lot of information, at least what he could see The Xie family's determination to seek refuge, Wentian Sect's retreat, and Xuanmen's neutral attitude of neither being arrogant nor humble, etc.

This is enough for Yu Jinliang, and as the saying goes, you can't overfeed a monster, and the same goes for the Xie family.

"Haha, Director Xie, I think this is okay. At least no one loses face, and it can divert the attention of the outside world. If things are more lively, there may be unexpected benefits!"

Yu Jinliang's hint is actually very clear. This is the Han Dynasty, the home ground of the Xie family, and the Magic Machine Sect is secretly helping. If the Xie family wins this matter, they will lose face, and this matter is Lin's. Shu took the initiative and was willing to admit defeat when the time came. Lin Shu had nothing to complain about the Xie family, including Wentian Zong, who also had nothing to say.

As for being more lively, it obviously means that Yu Jinliang is very confident. Xie Jiansheng figured out the key and immediately smiled and said to Lin Shu: "Since everyone has agreed, I will follow the good example, but how to compare it?" Okay? I personally think that dueling is harmful to harmony and is not in line with the tradition of the Han Dynasty. It is better to use betting to fight!"

"Okay, I'm just a guest doing whatever I want. How about Chief Xie come up with a betting method?"

"I will do my part in this. Our Han country has a tradition of gambling and fighting. The most popular ones are horse betting, dog fighting, eagle fighting, etc. These all have a long history. We can choose one or more of them to do it at once. Or multiple times to determine the winner. Mr. Lin Shu, please rest assured that these gambling organizations are hosted by large, relatively independent companies. Even our Xie family has no ability to interfere with them, so there is no problem with fairness. .”

After Xie Jiansheng finished speaking, he looked at Lin Shu sincerely. Yu Jinliang also looked at Lin Shu with the corners of his mouth raised slightly, while Xiang Zhitian was curious and waiting for Lin Shu's decision.

"Okay! Let's do it like this. There are still two days before we leave Caiyungang. I will ask Chief Xie to arrange these matters. I think it is best to decide based on the best of three games?"

"Okay, then let's choose the candidate event as soon as possible!" Xie Jiansheng seemed to be afraid that Lin Shu would regret it, so he immediately put an end to the matter.

Yu Jinliang smiled and said to Yu Jinghan: "Jinghan, please publish this news immediately. If possible, let each betting station place a separate bet on this matter!"

"Haha, okay! Where is Jingya?"

"Go and tell her, no matter who is serving the wine, she has to go!"

"Got it!" Yu Jinghan said, smiling apologetically at Lin Shu, greeting Zhitian and Xie Jiansheng on the right, and then left quickly.
