Volume 6 [The tiger is also strong when it goes to sea] NO.179 Qilin Zhao of the Chu family
Lincang, in a two-story wooden building, there are several young people who don't know where they come from. They all have a cheerful appearance, but they are not arrogant or rude. They are just the middle-aged man in front who bows respectfully and serves tea.
, forming a sharp contrast with them.
"Chu Zhenxiong, tell me, what are you doing? You're not trying to trick us."
The area downstairs has been cleared, and the cars outside are full of cars parked. There are also police cars wandering around, watching as these people seem to be trying to do something.
Chu Zhenxiong was worried, holding the tea in his hand, and said softly: "Master Chen, you have a lot of people, and my people are not sensible and have caused you trouble."
The person sitting in front of Hao Ran is Chen Guo.
And his good friend Shao Shuai was sitting next to him, looking quite content with himself.
"My lord, there are a lot of... well, that's well said. That's well said."
Chen Guo stood up, glanced at the man with the highest rank in the Chu family's ranking in Yunnan, walked over, and walked up to Chu Zhenxiong, holding the tea cup with her fingers. Chu Zhenxiong showed a smile on his face,
As long as Chen Guo is willing to drink tea, everything will be easy to talk about.
However, Chen Guo's fingers slid around the edge of the tea cup and stopped on one side. Then she saw Chen Guo's fingers gently flipping over Chu Zhenxiong's cup. With a snap, the cup fell.
It fell to pieces on the ground, and the boiling water inside was still a little warm. There was a puddle of water on the ground, and it finally became more and more wet.
Chu Zhenxiong's trouser legs were all wet.
However, even so, Chu Zhenxiong still smiled and asked softly: "Master Chen, is there anything I did wrong?"
Chen Guo glanced at Chu Zhenxiong, her eyes flashed thoughtfully, and then turned around, not paying attention to the younger brothers around Chu Zhenxiong who were already angry. What Chen Guo did was simply bullying others too much.
, but obviously and without a doubt, this is not a problem at all for Chen Guo.
"No, no, no. You didn't do anything wrong. It's just that I, Mr. Chen, don't like people who do the same thing in front of them and do the same thing behind their backs. You probably talked to the Huang family's mistress in the same way. Actually.
, Chu Zhenxiong, you are not young anymore, you are in your forties. If you can get to this position, you will be satisfied. Don't always think about messing around with people outside the mountains. "
The attitude of scolding an ignorant child made Chu Zhenxiong really furious and almost going crazy. But his expression was still smiling, although it was a little stiff.
"Yes, yes, what Master Chen said is that I have poor eyesight and always want to be a wallflower."
Chu Zhenxiong admitted it straight away.
Chen Guo sneered. He didn't have the time to come here to talk and play with these mountain cannons. He came to have a fight with Huang Silang. Maybe in the eyes of others, he was being treated as a gun.
, but for Chen Guo, he is happy with this matter, and no one can stop him.
However, Chu Zhenxiong is also a person with a special status in the Chu family of Yunnan, but now he has to be reprimanded by a junior, which makes many people sigh.
In fact, not many local tycoons in the southwest were overthrown in the ten years of turmoil, but their lives were not easy. Later, after the clan power was uprooted, they were like San Xuantang, and they were honest in the local area.
They were mixed up, such as the Feng family in Zhaotong, the Chu family in Lincang, the Duan family in Dali, and the Mu family in Banna.
The mountain people and the young people have a good relationship with these wealthy people and are very grateful. After all, the mountainous areas are different from other places. Only the leader of each other can survive the difficulties, and then they stick together very much. This is why people often say that the mountains and rivers are poor.
What a cunning person. In fact, although these words are a bit harsh, they also convey the meaning of the disparity between the rich and the poor.
There is another old saying: Poverty breeds bad thoughts, wealth breeds conscience.
If this statement is taken literally, it is just bullshit. But from another perspective, it illustrates the true meaning that the economy determines everything.
"Chu Zhenxiong, if you want to pretend to be a grandson, I will help you. If you still want to swing around and find a backer, I will help you. I don't know if Huang Xiaosi can succeed, but I can make Huang Xiaosi unable to succeed. This
At least, I still have some confidence."
Chen Guo unbuttoned a button on his sleeve, glanced at it coldly, and then said: "Build roads to make money, make money to build roads, Huang Xiaosi is thinking about good business and making good calculations, but he
Have you asked me?"
Talking like this naturally leaves no room for retreat.
But Chu Zhenxiong is not worried. He does not believe that this boy Chen Guo would dare to kill him. Although he is a useless person, his brother Chu Tianxiong is not that easy to talk to. Although the two brothers have always been
He is famous for pretending to be a grandson and pretending to be a country bumpkin, but at a critical moment, what needs to be done must be done. Only by working together as brothers can we make the most of it.
"Master Chen, you know that we are just sticks crawling out of the ravines. What do you know? If you give me a way to walk, how can I still be ignorant? But at our level, we are just little chickens.
, it won’t be a matter of minutes for you and the Huang family to crush us to death.”
Chu Zhenxiong said with a sad face, but he was cursing secretly in his heart: Huang Silang is indeed shameless, but at least he has prepared a big gift for you. The real things are ready, but they are nothing like you, there is no water flow.
It’s just a matter of coming out. You have to lose face. Do you really think that you are a prince from the capital? Are you here for a private visit incognito?
"Huh, Chu Zhenxiong, I have ruined your face today. If you have a chance to take revenge in the future, that is your business. I won't think about it too much. But you can take care of yourself. Whatever happens in the future
, don’t say I didn’t remind you.”
There was a hint of threat in Chen Guo's yin and yang words. This Chen family member is powerful and can be regarded as one of the most powerful men in the capital. What's more, he himself has a very high IQ and can outwit most ordinary princelings.
The plaything in the palm of your hand is indeed unique.
Huang Silang was tricked by him back then, which is nothing to say, but now, it seems that he can't feel happy himself, and he doesn't want others to feel happy, and he does it at the expense of others and not self-interest. It really makes people speechless, and also
It's hard to understand.
"Brother Shao, let's go."
Chen Guo glanced at Shao Shuai. The gay friend smiled slightly. The smile was so charming that it made everyone around him feel creepy. They just felt that this world was really full of wonders.
"Guoguo, are we going to Dali City to play?"
Shao Shuai asked.
"You want to see the Stone Forest?"
Chen Guo asked.
Shao Shuai nodded.
…
When the two of them left, Chu Zhenxiong recovered from his surprise and cursed: "What kind of bastard is this? He's so arrogant, he looks like a bastard with his two claws, and he still thinks I'm a bastard."
He is a stick, a turtle son, and his **** ancestors..."
After he finished cursing, he received another call. It was from his brother Chu Tianxiong.
"You idiot, my general just told you that your melon boy's head was placed on the cesspool. Chen Guo, do you know who his father is? Do you really know that?**
**Sir, I won’t talk to you. I’ll settle the score with you tonight. You don’t care what the Huang family’s little bastard does. Here are two gangs of gods. You let the gods fight and you have to take off your clothes.
Put on your pants and clothes yourself, just think you are Sun Hou'er."
Chu Zhenxiong only reacted at this time, but he still said: "Brother Tian, I know, but Chen Guoer didn't give me face, and directly lifted the cup I was serving tea from. Tell me, I'm doing this
Show your face, where can you put it? Another thing, Brother Tian, you don’t know the situation, but the fourth son of the Huang family has promised that when the road is repaired in the future, our car can just run, and he even gave us a gift
They provide the route and the driver. You see, this business is so frivolous that I can’t afford to offend it anyway, so I might as well just give it up."
When Chu Zhenxiong said this, Chu Tianxiong was silent for a while, and then said: "Did Huang Si'er really tell you?"
"There is also a lie, brothers are all there to listen. Brother Tian, there is also a kid. I seem to have seen it somewhere before, but I don't think I recognize it, but the kid's eyes are very fierce, and he is so big
Needless to say, he is as tall as a tiger, and Huang Si'er is very polite to him. Tell me, Brother Tian, is this someone's backer?"
Chu Zhenxiong talked about his experiences.
Chu Tianxiong listened for a while and thought to himself: Is this Huang Silang's backer? But it doesn't sound like it. Whose backer looks like this? It's like a ghost.
However, he still asked in a low voice: "Brother Xiong, you'd better go and find out what's going on. Don't ignore Chen Guo'er. In this case, I'll make an appointment in person to give Huang Si'er some advice. You
Do you want to find someone to make arrangements first?"
"Yes, I'll do it early"
The two brothers had an argument. This was originally a two-sided matter, but now, no matter what, Huang Silang still had soup to drink, and with Chen Guo, maybe not even a skeleton would be left.
.
Just as he was about to hang up the phone, he heard Chu Tianxiong say: "Brother Xiong, I will ask Brother Yao to come over and help you later. I will help you control the situation and make you more powerful."
"Okay, okay, tell me brother to come earlier. That big guy is really scary."
When Chu Zhenxiong said this, Chu Tianxiong said seriously: "Zhao Lei is the Qilin of our family. If you don't lose to anyone, what are you afraid of?"
"Okay, Brother Tian, I'm going to do something."
"I want it."
…
The National Day is finally here. It is really Feng Qinghua’s birthday. Zhang Bi brought gifts early and went home to celebrate his birthday. It was October 1st. The day was finally over. Except that Zhang Yaozu was just like a few years ago.
People are not at home, and the rest is really nothing.
The people at home were much more lively, Da Qin Baozhu Ayani’s Chinese became smoother, and little Lolita Katyusha was able to use chopsticks to hold Sixi meatballs and run around the table happily. The days were finally busy.
I survived with great difficulty.
Although it may seem a little strange to survive, this feeling of suddenly becoming rich overnight still made Zhang Laosan feel that this world full of people is really strange.
I used to think that there was nothing wrong with being away from money. When I really ran out of money, I thought this damn thing was really a good thing. But when so many of them were just numbers, I felt depressed again.
He burned a pot of cigarettes, with a pinch of red wine soaked in the cut tobacco. The red wine was actually home-brewed wine, and the water was made from the fountain of life. The old guy burned a pot of cigarettes and felt comfortable all over his body.
My back, which had been hit by four shrapnel fragments, now no longer suffers from throbbing chills or chills. It is actually a long-standing problem that has been cured inexplicably.
"Mom, please eat more."
A chopstick of sweet and sour pork ribs, cooked by Zhang Ben himself. The family is very busy, and they usually cook it by themselves, so they don’t come to any ostentation. There are also two tables casually set up outside, where old men and old ladies meet.
The wine bowls are made from Jiangnan old liquor and sweet rice wine, which taste better.
After it's warmed, put two large red dates in it, and occasionally some water chestnuts, white fungus, and red and green cherries. It's most popular among children in the south of the Yangtze River. Here in Suzhou Prefecture, everything is mixed and miscellaneous. It's just two towns away.
The dialects are thousands of miles apart and completely different.
"Oh, you are more sensible, you are more sensible." Feng Qinghua smiled and praised. Her hands were able to support the two men in the family. Although her husband was a villain who was hated by everyone, she knew it.
My own man is a man, and Zhang Yaozu is a scumbag and a scum, but if we talk about it in a radius of ten miles, how can we say that Zhang Yaozu is not only a ruthless man, but also a tough guy?
"Much better than your father."
I took a bite of the crispy and fragrant sweet and sour pork ribs. This cooking method is the cooking method of Wuxi people. It tastes very good. It does not make people feel too sweet. Instead, it feels like bone powder is sprinkled into the meat. It is extremely delicious.
Make people feel comfortable.
"Dad is always coming back. He may still be busy now."
Zhang Bi said calmly.
Zhang Laosan didn't know what Zhang Bi did outside, nor did he know how much he was worth now. He just knew that he had spent two million on the bank account in his hand and didn't know what to buy. Zhang Juncai was clamoring to go to Jinling.
Walking around the city, I thought that it was a waste of effort to expel Chang Kaishen from Nanjing.
It didn’t cost much. It was just the National Day and there were so many people, so I didn’t consider it. Furthermore, his daughter-in-law was about to give birth, and there were many more babies at home, which made him not want to run around so early.
.
"Weasel actually sent someone here today to say congratulations. It's really amazing. He even remembers our **'s birthday so clearly."
Xia Zhenzhen huddled next to him and whispered.
Zhang Bi said strangely: "Huang Silang is still in Yunnan, and I will fly there in a few days. He is a shrewd man, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is careful with his calculations. He is ambitious and does not hide his ambitions, so he can succeed.
"
Xia Zhenzhen thought to himself: Who knows what you two are doing, there are people in the capital rumoring that you two are comrades.
But he said: "On my birthday, you give us a piece of Yunnan jade."
"Didn't I give you Buddhist beads?"
Zhang Ben rolled his eyelids and looked at her.
"Mom, look at him"
Xia Zhenzhen then rushed to Feng Qinghua's side, cuddling up and acting like a baby. The old men nearby laughed. This good girl is the most lovable. When she is lively, she is a pistachio, and when she is festive, she is a lucky bug.
And she clenched her tightly. The little tiger has such a wife, who can bring prosperity to both her husband and her surname...
The Zhang family is very lucky.
Zhang Laosan also laughed loudly: "Give me a bigger one. I won't use the smaller one. It will look great at home."
"Oh, so are you two. When Xiao Ben graduates, why not just build your own house next to it, and it will look like you are married."
Feng Qinghua also followed the atmosphere and rubbed Xia Zhenzhen's head, but in his heart he was picking and choosing: Oh, oh, oh, the daughters in this family are all good, all are good. And that Japanese ***,
It's also very good. I didn't think so before, but now I do. This little beast can't learn from the good but the bad...
But at the same time, I felt proud, thinking that only women would appreciate my son because he was so good.
Today is the birthday girl. Originally, women at the mouth of the Yangtze River did not want to live a happy life, but now women hold up half the sky and can’t take care of so many things. Zhang Laosan patted the table and decided on the ingredients for three tables of dishes. Zhang Bi
I burned it with the old man, and I didn't help at all.
Even the little lolita Katyusha knows how to pull off a garlic leaf and pick a water celery.
The family prepared a lot of meals.
They were busy here. They ate a bowl of longevity noodles. Feng Qinghua received a dozen more gifts and smiled from ear to ear. The most heartwarming thing in this life is this moment. If there is anything more special than today,
What is comfortable may be that the son will get married and start a business, and the family will be full of children and grandchildren.
"Auntie, I'm happy today."
Zhang Xiaoqi also looked at his aunt with a smile. His mother and I were in the capital and had not come back, but she still called and congratulated her, and asked Zhang Xiaoqi to give her a gift, a set of double-sided embroidery from Gusu City.
Two beautiful cats, one black and one white, are vivid and very beautiful.
"How can you not be happy?"
Finally, I drank a bowl of brown sugar water before sitting on a chair to rest, feeling extremely happy.
The family was doing their homework for only an hour or so, when a car came outside. The license plate was conspicuous, it was actually a Yunnan Province license plate.
This was an ordinary off-road vehicle. Some people got out of the vehicle, all dressed neatly. They were not very decent, but they did not lose their etiquette.
The one in front of the head is a young and handsome young man with black hair, a small parting, a dark complexion, and healthy skin. He is holding a small package in his hand, while the person behind him is unloading something from the car.
After a long time, I saw this man coming forward, looking at Zhang Ben and saying, "Mr. Zhang, we meet again."
Zhang Ben nodded and said, "Mr. Zhao, what's the matter?"
This person was the person he and Huang Silang met in Pu'er that day. He was from Chu Tianxiong. While meeting them, Chu Zhenxiong was also arguing with Chen Guo and the others. The person here said that he was gone.
.
I don’t know where I got the news. When I found out that Zhang Bi’s mother had passed away, I immediately had some treasures flown in as a tribute. That attitude showed that Zhang Bi was regarded as an extremely important person to curry favor with. How discerning is Chu Tianxiong?
, he naturally recognized Zhang Bi as the boxing boy who worked for the eldest lady of the Xia family at the foot of Junzhang Mountain. In the blink of an eye, he turned into such a fierce person. What a surprising scene?
Logically speaking, there are no such complicated things in this world, but after thinking about it carefully, Chu Tianxiong concluded that this boxing boy is not the bad boxing boy he used to be. He is no longer the same person. This person cannot use common sense.
To judge, just like most heroes, common sense cannot be used to infer.
Coupled with Huang Silang's tactful hints and the inquiries of several people, he had a vague feeling that if someone wanted to cause trouble on this road, it would definitely end badly, and the end might be very tragic.
"This is the famous Three Flying Tigers of North China, the old hero Zhang. I have admired his name for a long time. Sure enough, hearing it a hundred times is better than seeing it. The real person is even more majestic, tough and mighty."
This person surnamed Zhao showed his ability to speak out. He turned to Feng Qinghua and said: "This is Mr. Zhang's mother. She is so brave and heroic, a member of the Red Detachment of Women."
When his words came out, others might even blush, but in the ears of the old man and Feng Qinghua, they were the best compliments. Zhang Bi was also slightly shocked that this man named Zhao could figure out what his grandfather and father were so quickly.
Mom’s temper? Damn it.
"Xiao Ben, why don't you introduce your friends?"
It was rare for Zhang Laosan to be so happy. He put away all the dry cigarettes and put his hands behind his back. He looked like a senior leader of the military region. He held his head high and felt very happy.
"Oh, my Excellency, Zhao Lei, is from Yunnan and has a close relationship with Mr. Zhang. I heard that Mr. Zhang's mother had a birthday, so I came over quickly to congratulate him, and prepared a small gift by the way. It's not respectful."
He turned his head slightly to the side and gave a gesture with his eyes. The people behind him immediately placed the things respectfully in the hall. The old guys around him all stared with wide eyes. Zhang Juncai touched his bald head and said secretly:
Damn you, it’s such a hell these days, why do people keep sending things to your house?
It was an object covered by a red cloth head. I didn’t know what it was. It seemed that the outline was not clear. After a while, I saw the red cloth head slowly being pulled open, and I was shocked to find that this
The thing turned out to be a huge jade carving.
This is a jade-gold melon. The leaves are all gold leaves, and the melon is a golden-skinned jade melon. The carving is also extremely exquisite, and the luster makes people fall in love with it at first sight. What a good thing.
Several people were stunned when they saw Zhao Lei bringing things over again, such as ant eggs, alpine bee sugar, bacon from the old forests of thousands of mountains, dried bamboo shoots from the Chaoyang hillside, Ganoderma lucidum as big as a basin, with well-developed roots.
Wild ginseng, cordyceps, gastrodia elata, etc. were packed in large packages.
"They are all local specialties from Yunnan. They are very interesting, so I hope you don't dislike them."
This Zhao Lei has electric eyes and a charming smile. He seems so approachable and easy to talk to. However, Zhang Bi is wondering: What is this guy's plan? What is he thinking?
Even someone like Xia Zhenzhen, who is used to seeing things, has never seen someone give such a big gift even though they are not familiar with each other. It is really unbelievable.
Zhao Lei can come to Zhang's house to visit, so Zhang Ben can naturally inquire about Zhao Lei.
Huang Silang didn't know, but someone knew it. After asking around, Huang Silang told Zhang Bi that this Zhao Lei was known as the Qilin of the Chu family, but why did a member of the Chu family have the surname Zhao?
It turned out that this was Zhao Lei, who was recognized as a member of the Chu family. When meeting the ancestors of the Zhao family, he also had to call him "grandpa". This "personal" word was meant to be shouted out. On weekdays, one could not call him "grandpa".
Moreover, Zhao Lei grew up in the Chu family, so his feelings for the Chu family are naturally deeper.
It is not an exaggeration to say that one is raising children and raising grandchildren, so there is a saying that the Qilin of the Chu family is Zhao Jialang.
However, seeing that this Zhao Lei seems to be smooth-talking and a very fast-talking person, there is really no way to know what kind of person he is.
However, Zhang Ben believed that since he could be called Qilin, he must have something special about him, and he definitely couldn't be just a glib guy.
Because people are not as good as they appear on the inside, and people who are good at pretending, Zhang Bi has already met two of them.
One is Huang Silang, and the other is the former boss of Dingxin Real Estate, Wang Hongtu.
Zhang Bi knew very well what kind of people Huang Silang and Wang Hongtu were, so he thought to himself: Could this Zhao Lei be such a person?
Qilin'er of the Chu family is truly an incredible title.
Although Chu Tianxiong has been saying that these are random names given by people from his hometown, which cannot be true, Zhang Ben can feel that when Chu Tianxiong mentioned Zhao Lei, the brilliance in his eyes was not false.
.
"Go in and sit down."
Zhang Bi invited Zhao Lei to come in and sit down. Xia Zhenzhen poured tea for him very quickly and very cleverly. Ayani stood behind Feng Qinghua and helped. As for Helen, she held Katiu's hand.
Sha's little hands followed Ayani and ran to help.
In the hall, the jade-gold melon is really dazzling. Placed there, it is dazzling and attracts people's attention at once.
Zhao Lei smiled, but looked at Zhang Bi's expression with his peripheral vision, and suddenly realized that this man did not take a second look at the jade-gold melon, but instead sat upright and looked at him.
Zhao Lei felt a little uncomfortable and looked up at Zhang Bi without any trace: "Mr. Zhang, if you need any help in Yunnan then, just let me know."
Zhang Ben smiled and said: "It's easy to say, I won't be polite."
…
Zhao Lei squinted his eyes and thought to himself: This man is so powerful.
Zhang Bi also thought to himself: It seems that this boy is also pretending to be nice. It is obvious that he is a guy who is good at pretending. He is not familiar with the place where he lives. I think he does not dare to make mistakes, but he is good at being a good person.
…
On October 3rd, another news came from Yunnan, and I received a call from two brothers, Zhang Dashan and Zhang Xiaoshan.
"Are you here?"
Zhang Bi asked.
"It's here, it's here."
Zhang Dashan gasped, laughed, and then said: "Little tiger, go here, it's still the same, haha"
When Zhang Bi heard that they had arrived, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Wait for me there for two days, and I will be there soon."
