"There are too many people here," Sima Tian spread his hands and said with a smile, "The air is a bit depressing."
Long Jianyue looked at Sima Tian and then told Han Lan: "You guys go out."
Hanlan didn't move: "Sister Long..."
"It's okay," Long Jianyue waved her hand: "If he wanted to do harm to me, he would have done it long ago."
Han Lan left with the Baihua Tuan, and Sima Tian applauded a few times: "No wonder everyone calls you eldest sister, you really have the demeanor of an eldest sister,"
"I'm very busy, tell me quickly, what's the matter with you,"
Sima Tian did not answer, but after looking at Long Jianyue for a while, he said meaningfully: "After so many years, you still can't let go of your grudges."
The corner of Long Jianyue's mouth twitched and he said word by word: "The past is not as good as smoke,"
"that's right,"
"Even if I can forgive others, Ling Yang killed my brother, I can never forget it,"
"In the past few years, we all wanted to kill Ling Yang for our own reasons. We also all had the idea that if we kill Ling Cang, maybe Ling Yang will show up." After a pause, Sima Tian continued: "But I don't think so now, Ling Cang must live,"
"Why,"
"Ling Yang dares to put his son outside, which means that he has made all preparations. It has been some time since Ling Cang came out of the mountain. It is impossible for Ling Yang not to know what we are doing around Ling Cang. If Ling Yang wants to interfere, , has already taken action, in other words, if Ling Yang is determined to hide, he will still not show up even if his son is dead,"
"Does Ling Yang not care about his son's life or death at all?"
"No one knows what he is thinking. I have followed him for so many years and I still can't figure it out." After a pause, Sima Tian added, "So Ling Cang must stay alive and be a bait."
"You want to see what Ling Yang's next arrangements are,"
"That's right," Sima Tian nodded slowly: "As long as Ling Cang is alive, father and son will meet each other sooner or later, and then our goal will be achieved."
"That makes sense,"
"Actually, I also wanted to kill Ling Cang, but he was too weak and not worthy of my action. Later, I thought that killing Sikong You might force Ling Yang out..." Thinking of that time he was killed at Sikong You's home. Ling Cang's face turned pale, and Sima Tian's expression became a little ferocious: "But then I calmly thought about it, if Ling Yang didn't even care about his son's life and death, he wouldn't take Sikong You seriously,"
"How many of you and Sikong were brothers back then?" Long Jianyue smiled coldly and said sarcastically: "I never thought that you would be able to do something to your eldest brother."
Sima Tian said lightly: "Everyone is his own master."
"Sikong You's master is Ling Yang, what about you?"
"I make my own decisions now, and I can do whatever I want, and I'm free and at ease." Sima Tian lit up a cigarette, took a puff and then said: "Over the years, every time I think about the past, I feel that I should leave early. Ling Yang,"
Long Jianyue actually hated Sima Tian very much, not because Sima Tian was once under Ling Yang's command, but because Sima Tian caused her a lot of losses when she fought against Ling Yang. Speaking of Baihua Tuan alone, the two predecessors The deputy captain died at the hands of Sima Tian. The previous captain was also seriously injured by Sima Tian, and more ordinary members were killed by Sima Tian.
Long Jianyue wanted to curse, you are just a wild dog without an owner now, but she endured it and did not say this, because Sima Tian was still valuable to her, so she had been monitoring Sima Tian's actions in the past. , and tried to cooperate with Sima Tian to get rid of Ling Cang.
"Speaking of which, your former master was really capable of leaving his own son outside and ignoring him,"
"I said, no one can figure out what he's thinking,"
"But he should at least leave some property to his son. He has made himself extremely rich, but left his son in poverty." Long Jianyue softened his tone, shook his head slightly and said: "Ling Cang is now a special admissions student for poor people. He often Being teased at school,"
"Is this..." Sima Tian thought of a past event and smiled and said: "I remember Ling Yang once mentioned children's education. At that time, he quoted a sentence from Lin Zexu: 'My descendants are not as good as me. If they are stupid and have more wealth, the more they will grow. It's my fault: if my descendants are virtuous and rich, it will only harm their aspirations.'"
"Ling Yang is very insightful," Long Jianyue nodded approvingly: "If Ling Cang is promising, he will naturally surpass his father. If he is not promising and becomes a prodigal, but is extremely rich, it will simply bring shame on the Ling family. Discredit, Ling Yang has always been strong all his life, and he absolutely does not want to see his son like this,"
"Although you hate Ling Yang, you still know him very well and you can be called his confidante."
"Okay, let's stop this topic." Long Jianyue's expression became very unnatural, and his voice became a bit high-pitched: "If you came to me just to talk about these things back then, then you can leave now,"
"No, I'm looking for you for other reasons." Looking back at Long Jianyue back then, she was a carefree little girl. Looking at Long Jianyue in front of me again, she was cold and arrogant, rarely smiling, and often faintly exuding Sima Tian suddenly felt like he was in another world.
"What other things can you ask me for?"
"Yes, I want to work with you to fight against common threats,"
"Cooperate with me," Long Jianyue sneered and shook his head: "I came to you back then and wanted to work with you to force Ling Yang out, but you pretended to ignore the grudges with a smile."
"I admit, I felt that I could find Ling Yang with my own abilities, so I rejected you," Sima Tian looked at the ceiling and blew out a smoke ring: "But this time is different,"
"What happened this time? What kind of threat could make you so angry?"
"Do you know about the Illuminati?"
"I've heard that the Illuminati, the Freemasons, the Covenant League, the Bilderberg Group, the Club of Rome... are all secret organizations with huge power in various fields. In fact, they control the entire world directly and indirectly. Also, some organizations in country M, such as the Skull and Bones Society, the Ox Blood Society, and the Ivy League, are also very influential." Long Jianyue also lit up a cigarette, took a brief puff and said, "However, The underground world owned by these organizations is still far away from me, and I have never dealt with them."
"It's not that far away," Sima Tian looked at Long Jianyue with complex eyes and reminded: "The Illuminati has a branch in Minghai,"
"I know, but this branch has never been active. At most, it acts as an intelligence agency, responsible for collecting domestic economic and social intelligence. I heard that the top person in charge there is just a deacon..."
"This is the Illuminati's way of hiding people's eyes. In fact..." Sima Tian curled his lips and told Long Jianyue calmly: "That deacon is qualified to leapfrog and become an elder."
"You mean..." Long Jianyue was startled when he heard this: "In fact, the Illuminati attaches great importance to the country,"
"With such a large population, such a huge market, such an amazing economic aggregate, and it is becoming more and more influential... you think the Illuminati will give up on the country,"
"Have they taken action?"
"Just when I was about to take action, I was killed..." Sima Tian found the ashtray, put out the cigarette butt, and then lit another one: "It seems like chrysanthemum water can dry it,"
"Ju Shuihui is also here. A big earthquake didn't kill them, but it shook the country..." Long Miyue stood up and paced back and forth, her beautiful eyebrows knitted together: "Now they are dog eating dog, want to If one company dominates, whoever gets the upper hand will start to control the domestic society and economy, just like they do in other countries,"
"Over the years, they have cultivated many compradors at the top and raised many parrots in the media and all walks of life. They have already laid the foundation to turn this ambition into reality. By then, all large enterprises, aristocratic families and influential figures will have become their The goal..." After a pause, Sima Tian added word by word: "Including you and me."
"This is why you came to me," Long Jianyue's brows suddenly widened, and he smiled with a hint of sarcasm: "You Sima Tian are so powerful, you are not afraid of anything, and you care about the Illuminati."
"Everyone is afraid sometimes, not just me, but even the Illuminati themselves..." After flicking the cigarette ashes, Sima Tian said meaningfully: "I don't care what others think or whether they are willing to submit. Anyway, I, Sima Tian, am free. I'm used to it, and I don't want to be told what to do by anyone. However, I am fighting against them alone. After all, I am outnumbered, so I found you because I know that you, Miss Long, are arrogant and like me, hope to decide your own destiny."
"You bet they're going to find me,"
"You can take chances, but I also want to remind you that even if they don't attack you directly, they will definitely have to deal with several major families,"
Long Jianyue hesitated for a moment, then nodded and admitted: "That's right."
"I heard that you and the Jiang family are at odds. They have been fighting for the high-speed rail project some time ago, but you have a lot of cooperation with the Cai family and the Lu family in the south. I remember that when your Long family first came from Southeast Asia, you were in trouble everywhere. After hitting a wall, it was with the help of the Lu family that I gained a firm foothold in the country." Sima Tian curled his lips and reminded: "If these two aristocratic families are controlled, do you think you can survive?"
"You're right," Long Jianyue admitted, but then asked: "But do I have to cooperate with you?"
"I am your best partner," Sima Tian seemed to have expected what Long Jianyue would say, and he analyzed it calmly: "There are only a few aristocratic families who can cooperate with you, but the main aristocratic families They are economically and politically influential but lack force. Take the Shen family as an example. Although they have a large number of people, none of them can fight. The Jiang family is blessed with good fortune and longevity, but these four old guys combined are all enemies. But for me, Sima Tian, of course, the economic foundation determines everything, including the superstructure, but in the face of tyrannical force, everything can be turned into powder."
"You're right," Long Jianyue said with a half-smile, "but I still don't want to cooperate with you."
"Miss Long, I came to you with great sincerity." Sima Tian took a long drag on the cigarette and burned half of it in just one breath: "Last time you asked me to cooperate, I did perfunctory you, but If a big event is delayed because of such a small grudge, it will really outweigh the gain."
"If you want to prove your sincerity, answer me a question first, who killed Li Guinan?"
"Li Guinan, that mercenary of yours," Sima Tian admitted without hesitation: "It's me."
When Li Guinan was mysteriously killed, Long Jianyue has always been worried about him.
Although Li Guinan was not an important person under his command, he could not die in such an unknown manner, so Long Jianyue mobilized all connections to conduct a secret investigation, but the murderer was never found, and even the suspects could not be identified. .
Long Jianyue raised this question just now because she thought Sima Tian might have clues. She never thought that Sima Tian himself was the murderer: "Why did you do this?"
"Because Ling Cang is mine, I have to deal with it myself, and I don't want anyone to get in my way." Sima Tian didn't seem to care what Long Jianyue would think of this matter, and said straightforwardly: "I admit, I can't help it. You, so I will compensate you,"
"Tell me,"
"Although the Long family has been prospering in infrastructure construction in China over the years, it is still based on the financial industry in Southeast Asia. Without the capital accumulated in the financial industry, you cannot build infrastructure." After a pause, Sima Tian asked: "How about I give you 10% of the shares of Southern Commercial Bank?"
Southern Commercial Bank is a well-known financial institution in Southeast Asia. It is not large in scale, but its profits are quite high. This bank has always been in competition with the Long family. The controlling stake belongs to Sima Tian. It is said that Sima Tian used the strength of the Ling family to build it. Get up your personal career.
This 10% share is worth three to four billion anyway. Faced with such huge benefits, the death of a mercenary is no longer a problem. Even if it is a bait, Long Jianyue will swallow it without hesitation. :"good,"
"I can tell you that the economy in Southeast Asia is not very good now. Southern Commercial Bank will enter the country. The domestic economic environment is relatively stable, and we will make huge profits,"
"Very happy," Long Jianyue showed a smiling smile: "Since you are so sincere, I agree to cooperate with you,"
"That's good,"
"What exactly do you plan to do?"
"Both the Illuminati and the Kikusui Society are our opponents. Comparing the two, the Illuminati is really bright, because Westerners always follow certain rules of the game when doing things, but those Japanese devils can use any dirty and obscene means. We still don’t know what the Illuminati’s attitude will be to us, but the Kikusui Club will definitely take action against us. Therefore, we should take precautions against the Kikusui Club. This will also make the Illuminati aware of our strength and not be too tough on us. ,"
