Although Cheng Li won and won based on his strength, he was the eldest brother after all and was not willing to take advantage.
He knew that Yun Qiao was in trouble, so he spoke more concisely: "It's like this, a distinguished guest in Peiping asked me to take away a batch of goods. The Zhujia Pier is shared with the Governor's Mansion, and there were actually military police checking the wharf.
I tried to clear the way, but I was still stuck and refused to let him go. I wanted to see Zhu Longtou, but he said he was sick and refused to show up. As for Zhu Yucheng, he really wants to care about his father..."
Yun Qiao: "..."
Cheng Li smiled bitterly: "Do you blame me?"
Yun Qiao shook his head: "No, I'm willing to admit defeat. My second brother taught me this when I was twelve years old. But, I kept thinking yesterday about what my second brother's bet meant, and now I understand."
Cheng Li was stunned for a moment.
He had many means to make Zhu Longtou surrender, but he did not do so.
Yancheng is not his territory, and he is wary; at the same time, Xi Lanting is in the dark, and the dock is related to the Xi family.
Cheng Li was so injured that he vomited blood and was not sure of winning for a while.
He always had to have confidence before he could gamble.
Now he has no confidence, and he prefers to be sure. He doesn't need Yun Qiao to say anything, he just needs to take Yun Qiao to Zhu's house.
He learned from Zhu Yucheng that Yun Qiao and the Zhu family don't have much contact now.
Zhu Longtou offended Yun Qiao, and the delicate relationship between the Zhu family and the Qian family made Yun Qiao stay away from the Zhu family.
"Second brother, are you going to talk to Zhu Longtou about this?" Yun Qiao asked again.
Cheng Li shook his head: "I'll take you to Zhu's house to play mahjong. You just need to remember to win as much as possible."
"Second brother, don't worry about my poker skills. Unless you want me to lose, I won't lose," Yun Qiao said.
Cheng Li was very satisfied.
Yun Qiao didn't annoy him. He felt much more relaxed. Once he felt relaxed, he felt more at ease.
The two of them had breakfast and sat around until nine o'clock in the morning before going to Zhu's house.
The second young master of the Zhu family ran out to greet him with a very attentive attitude, not remembering the beating he received last time: "Yun Qiao, I couldn't believe it when I heard you were here!"
Yun Qiao was very cold: "Second Young Master."
"No, just call me brother." Zhu Ershao was extremely enthusiastic, "I look forward to your coming every day."
"I am an orphan, and all my brothers will die young." Yun Qiao said.
Zhu Ershao: "..."
Fortunately, Zhu Yucheng came out and interrupted Zhu Ershao's unilateral show of goodwill.
Yun Qiao is here in person, Zhu Longtou will definitely have to meet him.
Zhu Longtou is of medium stature and a little fat. He has a string of Buddhist beads on his wrist and a kind smile. All the evil and meanness is hidden under the deep pool without any clues.
"Congratulations, uncle." Yun Qiao greeted.
Zhu Longtou looked as if Yun Qiao had just arrived in Yancheng. He treated her very warmly, chatted with her, and asked her if she was used to living there and if she was eating well.
When distinguished guests come, they don't just talk, they naturally play cards.
The third aunt came over quickly and arranged the card game.
In China, among celebrities from all walks of life, there are not many people who can let Zhu Longtou personally accompany him to play cards.
This time, the third aunt did not go to the card table, but served tea and snacks nearby.
Yun Qiao played mahjong very well, and she was the one who always won. No one played tricks except her.
Zhu Longtou's expression became increasingly unpleasant, and Yun Qiao also pretended not to notice.
When lunch was about to begin, several people stopped at the card table. Zhu Yucheng praised Yun Qiao for his excellent card skills. Zhu Longtou also understood what Yun Qiao meant and became a little more wary.
After the meal, Zhu Longtou took the initiative to invite Cheng Li to the study room and mentioned his conditions.
As long as Cheng Li agrees, the shipment will be released immediately.
