Chapter 409 [Snow Full of Mountains] (1)
Bai Yunfei smiled and said, "It's still later than you, and you're taking it first."
Chen Haodong heard what he meant, and smiled unchanged: "No matter how early I came, I would not be able to book Mr. Mu's usual seat. Unless Mr. Mu came in person, no one would book that table."
Bai Yunfei looked at the place where he usually sat, but it was still empty. He had no intention of sitting there and smiled and said, "Then where did you book?"
Chen Haodongdao: "Shuiyun Pavilion."
Bai Yunfei nodded and said, "A guest is as good as the host. I am not a stubborn person. I must know how to adapt in everything, right?"
Chen Haodong laughed, Bai Yunfei's attitude made him optimistic about today's meeting.
Drinking the hot Qimen black tea and tasting exquisite refreshments, you can see the scenery of Pujiang through the windows of Shuiyun Pavilion. Bai Yunfei realized that he had always thought that the best seat was actually just a habit, and it would be nice to see the scenery from another angle.
Chen Haodong took the initiative to continue a tea ceremony for Bai Yunfei: "I invited Mr. Mu to come here today just to chat, there is no other meaning."
Bai Yunfei smiled and repeated, "Doesn't there any other meaning?" He omitted two words, which was strange!
Chen Haodong said: "The current situation is turbulent, and I feel uneasy. Mr. Mu is an old man in the concession and a senior I respect. To be honest, I have a few questions to ask you."
Bai Yunfei said: "I don't dare to take it as the word "ask"; in fact, I'm not a few years older than you, so I have more knowledge, but after all, I'm still old, and my vision and mind can no longer keep up with this era. If you want, just talk it out and discuss it."
Chen Haodong heard that Bai Yunfei was dissatisfied with the word "old man" he had just used. In fact, he did not imply Bai Yunfei's meaning, and coughed and said, "Does Mr. Mu pay attention to Manchuria?"
Bai Yunfei said: "The big thing about Zhang Tongwu's assassination has spread all over the country. The newspapers have been full of things about him these days, and I think it's hard not to pay attention to it." He had realized that Chen Haodong's conversation should be related to Zhang Lingkong.
Chen Haodong said: "I heard that Zhang Lingfeng inherited military power, and now Beiman is under his actual control."
Bai Yunfei said, "He is afraid he has a name but no reality. If he is just a false name, it would be fine. If he really takes it as the home of the Northern Manchu army, I will leave it here today. It won't take long for him to defeat his father's territory."
Chen Haodong laughed: "Mr. Mu and I have the same view."
Bai Yunfei said: "We are in Huangpu. Manchu is so far away from us. Even if the fire really burns, it will not spread here."
Chen Haodong said: "Have Mr. Mu forgot Zhang Lingkong?"
How could Bai Yunfei forget? Knowing that Chen Haodong would put the topic on his head sooner or later, he picked up the tea cup and drank a sip of tea. He was not in a hurry to speak, but he wanted to see what Chen Haodong said.
Chen Haodong said: "Zhang Lingkong transferred the land from the New World to Governor Ren, don't you know?"
How could he not know what happened under Bai Yunfei's nose? Zhang Lingkong had the greatest impact on Zhang Tongwu's death. He and Zhang Lingfeng were incompatible. In the past, Zhang Lingkong was invited by Zhang Tongwu to manage property for the Zhang family in order to leave a way out for the future. No matter how the young marshal Zhang Lingfeng questioned him, Zhang Tongwu always believed in him. But now that Zhang Tongwu was assassinated, Zhang Lingkong also lost the strongest support and support. Zhang Lingfeng would most likely not use him again, and it was very likely that Zhang Lingkong would deprive him of the management rights of Huangpu property.
Zhang Lingkong transferred the New World to Ren Tianjun. Although he was not sure about the specific price, Bai Yunfei believed that it would be half sold and half given away. Zhang Lingkong urgently needed to find a new support. If he could not find a new backer, everything he had worked hard in Huangpu would soon be shattered.
Bai Yunfei said, "I heard that Governor Ren seems to be building a cemetery for his father there."
Chen Haodong sighed and said, "You can be willful if you have the right."
Bai Yunfei put down the teacup in his hand, Chen Haodong poured him another cup of tea, raised his eyes and looked at Bai Yunfei, revealing an unprecedented sincere gaze: "In fact, Huangpu is so big that it can accommodate many people."
Bai Yunfei smiled: "I don't care about others, as long as I live a peaceful life, I don't have much ambitions, I'm at ease when I have a rich man. As long as my brothers can have a full meal, I have nothing else to ask for."
Chen Haodong secretly scolded Bai Yunfei for being hypocritical, but on the surface he still pretended to be in favor and nodded: "By the way, there have been a lot of things in Manchuria recently. It is said that Luo Changxing, who is from the Sect of Mind, and all four capable generals under him died in Huangtugang, Fengtian."
Bai Yunfei's heart sank, he picked up the teacup and took another sip and said, "Where can you not be killed if you are in the world? The Shou Mingmen is doing a murderous business. It is not surprising that they have such an end."
Chen Haodong said: "The money fell from the tree of the search gate and scattered. Now I am afraid that no one will go to Luo Lie to take revenge."
Bai Yunfei said: "You must have done it by Luo Lie so much?"
Chen Haodong said: "Who else isn't him? He killed Luo Hongyan, and Luo Changxing led people to seek revenge, but he was killed by him."
Bai Yunfei laughed: "Mr. Chen really should be a detective. The analysis is very reasonable. But as a bystander, I think Luo Changxing's death is nothing to sympathize with. He knows more clearly than anyone else about the business they are doing in the life-seeking sect. As the leader, he was blinded by hatred and was eager to organize revenge. In fact, he had committed a big taboo."
Chen Haodong said: "Mr. Mu isn't curious about who hired Luo Hongyan to kill Ye Qinghong in the beginning?"
Bai Yunfei said: "It's not just curiosity, I'm very concerned. After all, Luo Lie and his wife are both my friends. There are many rumors outside. Many people say that you planned this matter."
Chen Haodong shook his head and said, "I haven't done it before."
Bai Yunfei said: "But the person who almost killed Ye Qinghong is your subordinate."
Chen Haodong said: "Do you know why I know that Luo Lie killed Luo Changxing?"
Bai Yunfei said: "Presumably!"
Chen Haodong said: "Actually, I have always been paying attention to Luo Lie's every move in Manchuria. His whereabouts were revealed to Luo Changxing by someone."
Bai Yunfei said: "You, aren't you afraid that Luo Lie will come back and settle the score with you?"
Chen Haodong said: "You are not afraid, what's the point of being afraid of me?"
Bai Yunfei's face darkened and he said coldly: "What do you mean?"
Chen Haodong said: "If you don't know, unless you don't do it yourself, there is no absolute secret in this world, just like your Mr. Bai's identity, just like your Mr. Bai wants to kill someone with a knife and drive me out of Huangpu, and let Luo Lie fight to the death."
Bai Yunfei sneered, "I'm going to have a tea, but you sprayed my dirty water all over." He raised the teacup and threw it hard on the ground, not to throw the cup as a sign, but to vent his anger in his heart.
Chen Haodong said: "Yang Sicheng is my thief. Even if I want to kill Ye Qinghong, I will not use my own people to do it. This matter is clearly someone who wants to blame me."
Bai Yunfei said: "Yes, you will solve the problem of the thief yourself. I am not interested in it. Also, Luo Lie and his wife are my friends. No matter who does something that I am sorry for them, I will not let it go." His words were righteous and verbally speaking.
Chen Haodong said: "Do you think Luo Lie can't see through this situation? Even if he didn't see through it at that time, it would not be difficult for him to find out after the search for revenge on him."
Bai Yunfei said: "Then you should be scared. Luo Lie said he gave you two choices."
Chen Haodong said: "If I don't leave, at worst I will die. Instead, I worry about Mr. Bai. If he comes back, I don't know who will die first."
Bai Yunfei took a breath of air conditioner secretly. He had been worried about this during this period. He thought that the matter was done without anyone noticing, but afterwards, he made so many mistakes.
Chen Haodong said: "People like us are not suitable for having friends, Mr. Bai..."
Bai Yunfei had already stood up and said, "I have nothing to talk to you."
Chen Haodong said: "Whether you are willing to talk or not, I will advise you that as long as Luo Lie comes back, either you die or I die!"
The old and the young sat on the sled pulled by the dog, running happily on the snowy night. Luo Lie and Ye Qinghong walked together. The two looked at each other with a smile, unable to hide the tenderness in their eyes. Luo Lie smiled and said, "A man is as old as a naughty boy, I have truly seen it now."
Ye Qinghong said, "I don't know if you're old, it's the same way." When she said this, she felt sad again. As the nine-year agreement approached, Luo Lie would leave him one day. I wonder if he still had the chance to hold his hand and grow old together. Perhaps everything was just a luxury.
Luo Lie said: "You will know in the future." His smile was so warm and his tone was so sure, which made Ye Qinghong realize that he was thinking too much. What difficulties could a person like Luo Lie stump him? Since he promised that he would return to their mother and daughter, he would definitely do it.
This is the first time Hai Mingzhu has come to the north when she grows so old. She is amazed at the snowy world and occasionally makes exaggerated praises. Zhang Changgong looks at her with a doting face. Hai Mingzhu said, "Mu Tou, what are you always watching me do?"
Zhang Changgong smiled honestly and said, "My wife looks good."
Hai Mingzhu's pretty face turned red and she spat: "No shame or impatience!" Tiewa, who was driving the carriage behind, heard it clearly in the wind and couldn't help laughing.
Hai Mingzhu glared at him: "Boy, you're just laughing!"
Tiewa said, "Master's wife, my master praises you for being nice." His voice was already loud enough, and now it attracted everyone's attention.
Hai Mingzhu was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a crack in the ground. She looked up and saw the village in the distance. She hurriedly changed the topic and said, "Have you arrived at the place?"
