As soon as the call was connected, Ling Jie became extremely excited, even his voice was a little trembling, and there was even a slight stutter, "Zhang, Uncle Zhang, you are willing to spare such a little time."
A familiar chuckle came from the other side, "Hey, it's Ling Jie. I thought it was Bingtong. Why did you suddenly think of calling this bad old man like me today?"
Ling Jie called, of course to ask Uncle Zhang to take action. Thinking about it carefully, he was really selfish. Every time he came to see Uncle Zhang, he always had something to do. He never came to offer condolences in a good-hearted manner. Ling Jie secretly made up his mind: even this time
Well, I will definitely come and visit the uncle if I have something to do in the future.
Ling Jie laughed, "Uncle Zhang, I miss you so much. Is it convenient for us to meet now?"
Who is Uncle Zhang? Just by listening to the second half of Ling Jie's words, he knew that Ling Jie must have something to do with him. He originally thought that Ling Jie was calling to express condolences to him. He was overjoyed just now. This is not the case.
Before the wedding was over, Ling Jie said something like this, which was like a bucket of cold water being poured on him. His tone was quite unpleasant, "It's convenient, why is it inconvenient? Why should it be inconvenient for my grandson to meet his grandpa?"
Ling Jie was overjoyed, "Okay, uncle, where are you now? I'll come over to visit you right now."
The phone froze for a while before Uncle Zhang's voice came over, "I'm drinking tea in the Land of Abundance. Come over quickly and have a few sips of tea with me."
"Okay, okay, come here, come here..." Ling Jie was afraid that Uncle Zhang would say no, so he hung up the phone immediately after saying "good" for a few times, and appeared opposite Zhang Chaoshan in the Land of Abundance twenty minutes later.
On the way, Lingjie went to the mall and bought a can of Keemun black tea, Uncle Zhang's favorite. When he came to Zhang Chaoshang, Lingjie took the initiative to buy this big can of Keemun black tea for thousands of dollars.
He sent it over, "Uncle Zhang, I've kept you waiting for a long time. This little gift is specially given to you by Ling Jie."
Zhang Chaoshan kept looking out the window, deliberately pretending to be indifferent, "What kind of gifts did you give me? Cigarettes or red wine? Or a shameful CD?"
In his opinion, young people only give away a few things, and they can't come up with any new tricks after playing around. Ling Jie chuckled, "This is authentic Qimen black tea." Seeing that Uncle Zhang still had no reaction, Ling Jie
Jie introduced the effects of Keemun black tea in detail again, "The cords are tight and even, the edges are beautiful, the color is dark and lustrous (commonly known as "Baoguang"); the inner quality is fragrant and contains honey.
With a sugary aroma, the top-grade tea also contains the aroma of orchids (known as "Keemun fragrance"), which is rich and long-lasting; the soup color is red and bright, the taste is sweet and mellow, and the bottom of the leaves (soaked tea residue) is red and bright. It is best to drink it clear
Taste the timeless aroma of Qihong, even if you add fresh milk, it will not lose its fragrance. It is the best black tea to drink in spring, afternoon tea, and bedtime tea. It is the only one of the four most famous teas in the world. "
"Is it really Qimen black tea?" Before Ling Jie could say anything, Zhang Chaoshan suddenly turned around, put the jar in his hand, looked at it carefully, and then smiled widely, "Oh, it's really Qimen tea."
Men black tea, world four
Great top-quality tea, not bad. Boy Lingjie, you have good taste. When will you be able to have this Keemun black tea? I have had a soft spot for it for decades. Today's young people are indeed a
More classy than the other one.”
After praising him so much, Ling Jie got goosebumps all over his body, so he had to laugh along, "Uh...hehe, I just...I just saw you drinking this every day, uncle"
Is this Keemun black tea? I accidentally bought some and tried it last time. It was really the best. I have fallen in love with this tea ever since."
In fact, Ling Jie has never drank Keemun black tea at all, but it's rare for Uncle Zhang to say that he has taste. It's so funny. People are so sure of him. Even if he doesn't have taste, he still has to pretend to be cool...
Zhang Chaoshan still admired his treasure and said, "Qimen black tea relieves fatigue and refreshes the mind, nourishes yin and yang. In short, people who drink too much of this tea are generally in good spirits. For example, I, Ling Jie,
From now on, you have to drink a small pot every day. It is very good for your health."
Ling Jie nodded repeatedly. Seeing Zhang Chaoshan so fascinated, he couldn't help but cough a few times, "Uh...Uncle Zhang, what kind of tea are you drinking?"
Zhang Chaoshan glanced at Ling Jie out of the corner of his eye and saw the bitter melon seeds on his face. Then he put the jar down and smiled, "This is the most common camellia, it's very bitter."
Zhang Chaoshan took a nice sip, closed his eyes and thought carefully for a while, then opened his eyes and said, "Stop being so pretentious, why are you here with me? Are you in trouble?"
Ling Jie frowned tightly, "Uncle Zhang, to tell you the truth, I have a very urgent matter that I would like to ask for your help."
Zhang Chao has watched Ling Jie grow up since he was a child. He knows very well who Ling Jie is. Ling Jie has been very independent since he was a child. He likes to do everything alone and rarely asks others for help. Now he says this
, naturally knew that the matter was not trivial.
Zhang Chaoshan said calmly, "Tell me, what is it that makes you so helpless?"
Ling Jie gave an overview of Murong Qing's situation, and finally said, "Uncle, you have to help me this time. Among the people I know, you are the most respectable."
Zhang Chaoshan didn't answer. He was playing with the cup with one hand, as if thinking about something, and finally said, "Is this woman really that important to you?"
Ling Jie nodded decisively, "Yes, she has the most formidable IQ among the people I have ever met. If I use her in the future, she will definitely be able to dominate the business world, turn clouds and rain, and be invincible."
Although Uncle Zhang is a lieutenant general, he has never put on any airs or show off in front of Ling Jie. It was like this before and it is still like this now. He put the cup on the table without hesitation, "
I can indeed help you with this matter, but Ling Jie, you must promise me one thing."
Seeing how generous Uncle Zhang was, Ling Jie couldn't lose his grace. He immediately slapped the table, stood up and said, "Okay. Uncle, tell me, what do you want me to promise you?"
Zhang Chaoshan opened his mouth to speak, then closed it again, then smiled awkwardly, "I haven't thought of it yet, I will tell you when I think of it, but you promised today that you must agree to it no matter what it is."
"Okay. No problem." Ling Jie had deep feelings for Zhang Chaoshan. He expected that Uncle Zhang was just joking. He just found a step to get down. At that moment, he stretched out his little finger and said, "Pull a hook."
Zhang Chaoshan saw his younger side in Ling Jie and felt sincerely happy, so he hooked up with Ling Jie.
Ling Jie didn't know that this finger was hooked wrongly, which made him regret it for the rest of his life!
Just when Ling Jie was about to leave, Zhang Chaoshan suddenly said, "Ling Jie, sit down and chat with grandpa about Nuo..."
Ling Jie had no choice but to sit down again. Zhang Chaoshan said with a smile, "You can do it. In just a few months, you have become involved with the underworld in South China City."
One sentence made Ling Jie's whole body stand on end with horror! Uncle Zhang was a veteran figure in Qianlong. He said the word "underworld" in front of him, and his intention was by no means simple.
In fact, Ling Jie had expected that such a day would come, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly. At that moment, Ling Jie was silent and did not speak. He wanted to explain the matter clearly, but when he was about to speak, he realized that there was no way to explain it and it was impossible to use it.
The language should be explained clearly. Rather than explaining clearly, it is better not to explain it at all, so as not to make it more confusing.
Zhang Chaoshan didn't seem to be as serious as Ling Jie imagined, he just smiled kindly and said, "No matter what you do, you should never forget that you are a member of Qianlong, and everything must be based on Qianlong's purpose."
, I don’t want to restrict you in any other way. The underworld in this world is like prostitutes and can never be eliminated. Not all people in the underworld are bad people, and on the contrary, government officials are not necessarily good people. In the end, it depends on a person.
His heart, not his identity."
Ling Jie suddenly raised his head. It was rare for Uncle Zhang to understand the righteousness so deeply, and he was so grateful. A lieutenant general was a lieutenant general, and he saw many things so thoroughly. Ling Jie suddenly had a thousand words to say in his heart, but the words came to his mouth.
, but only said two words, "Thank you."
Uncle Zhang looked at him with admiration, "Now I give you another task in the name of Qianlong."
Ling Jie suddenly stood up and gave Zhang Chaoshan a military salute. Since this was a private room, no one could hear him, "Lieutenant General, please give me your orders."
Ling Jie stood upright. He had not given a military salute for several months since he left Qianlong. Despite this, he still stood as tall as a mountain and as tall as a tree, giving people an invincible feeling.
Zhang Chaoshan took out a file bag from the briefcase next to him and handed it to Ling Jie. "The tasks and related information are all in the file. Go back and take a good look."
Ling Jie took it with both hands, bowed slightly, gave another military salute, and then sat down.
Zhang Chaoshan looked out the window again and sighed slightly, "Ling Jie, there are a few things I think it is necessary to remind you."
Ling Jie said respectfully, "Sir, please tell me."
Zhang Chaoshan said, "Huahai City was originally a coastal city, China's window to the world. Now it is getting more and more chaotic. As far as I know, in addition to Lei Yonglin and Abbas, there are several more terrifying forces.
All the forces are also involved. In this troubled water, there are thorns everywhere. If you are in it, if you are not careful, the boat will capsize and fall into the sea."
In addition to Lei Yonglin and Abbas, are there several more terrifying forces that are also involved? Ling Jie didn't know this clearly, so he couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Zhang, can you please tell me which forces they are?"
Zhang Chaoshan shook his head, "I'm just reminding you that every move you make in Huahai City is completely seen by these forces. Don't think that no one knows, in fact, there are too many people who know. Among them
So they haven't shown up yet because they haven't arrived yet, they are waiting for an opportunity. Waiting for you to dominate the black forces in Huahai City."
Ling Jie was a little confused after hearing this, and couldn't help but point his finger at himself and asked, "Are they waiting for an opportunity? Waiting for me to unify the black forces in Huahai City? What good will this do to them?"
Zhang Chaoshan shook his head again. He seemed to know a lot of things, as if nothing happening around him could escape his eyes, but he just didn't say it. To put it nicely, he was protecting Tianji, but to put it badly, he was pretending to be profound.
"The secret must not be leaked. I am just giving you a reminder. When the day comes and you unify the Huahai underworld, you will naturally know why." Zhang Chaoshan said very calmly, "I am telling you this just to let you know.
You know that the underworld is far more complicated than you think. You have to take care of yourself in the future. I can't help you every day. As a grandpa, I sincerely hope that your road will go farther and farther."
Judging from his tone, he didn't seem to object to Ling Jie joining the underworld, which made Ling Jie feel a lot more relaxed. Are these words considered the uncle's blessing to him?
I finally let out the breath I was holding in...
Qianlong's attitude seems to be very obvious. The underworld can never be driven away, and not all people in the underworld are bad people, and not all officials are good people. What matters is the mentality.
With Zhang Chaoshan's words, Ling Jie's stomach seemed to be filled with a force, a force that was constantly expanding...
