Although he didn't know the personalities of other members of the Yan family, he knew Yan Bin well.
"Yan Bin, you are my disciple. You were my apprentice at first, and you stayed with me for seven or eight years before you became a disciple, so I know something about you."
"Perhaps there is something wrong with the young man named Li Jin and Su Dongsheng you mentioned, but if you ask yourself, are you not at fault at all?"
Faced with Hu Taidou's question, Yan Bin said firmly: "Teacher, I am just doing business legitimately. If I have offended them, it is the project in Southeast Province that has offended their interests."
"But this is normal business competition. If I lose, I will naturally not say a word and admit defeat."
"But now they are not following the rules and are starting to use tricks. Not only are they using their resources and connections to suppress me in Southeast Province, but they are also breaking a taboo and attacking my family, thus eliminating the Yan family's future."
"Is this a slap in my face? This is a slap in the face of all Huizhou merchants!"
After listening to Yan Bin's words, Hu Taidou smiled instead. He looked at Yan Bin meaningfully and said, "Are you going to get on the line and force Hui merchants onto your chariot?"
"Why, if I ignore you today, it will be the fault of the entire Huizhou merchants. Is it my fault?"
Upon hearing this, Yan Bin quickly stood up and said, "Teacher, that's not what I meant..."
Hu Taidou waved his hands and sighed: "I know very well whether you mean that, but I don't plan to care about these things anymore."
"Over the years, your brothers and sisters have been in trouble outside and have begged me a lot. When did you ever see me talk to you?"
"You have to know that I am just a retired bad old man, and I have stopped interfering in those industries. I can't care that much about the disputes of you younger generations even if I want to."
Yan Bin's heart gradually sank following Hu Taidou's words.
Finally, Yan Bin gritted his teeth and said to Hu Taidou: "Teacher, when my father passed away, he once said that you still owe him a favor."
Hu Taidou's face turned gloomy.
And the atmosphere in the entire lobby solidified with these words.
Yan Bin's heart was in his throat.
Facing his old mentor, Yan Bin knew very well the energy behind this old man.
As long as he says a word, he will turn into a street rat when he walks out of this door, and everyone will shout and beat him.
He really didn't dare threaten Hu Taidou unless it was absolutely necessary.
After a long time, Hu Taidou said slowly: "To be precise, there are two favors. The first favor was that your father asked me to accept you as a disciple, and I did it. The second favor, I never had the chance to repay. You
Are you sure you want to use it now?"
"Think carefully. If you want to use it, I will help you with this matter, but after that, don't say that you are my disciple, Hu Taidou."
Obviously, Yan Bin's threat had angered Hu Taidou, but such an old man valued promises more than his life, so he left the choice to Yan Bin.
Yan Bin didn't worry too much. He looked up at Hu Taidou and gritted his teeth and said, "Teacher, please help me!"
Hu Taidou seemed not surprised at all by this choice. His eyes were half closed and he said calmly: "Okay, what do you want me to do?"
