Four hundred and thirtieth chapters full of wind and rain
Xu Wangtang was stunned when he heard this, and his expression became strange. Everyone heard Han Baihang say two million, and for some reason, they couldn't help but pricked up their ears and wanted to continue listening.
However, Xu Wangtang laughed and said: "Captain Han is drunk. What are you talking about? Two million dollars. If I had two million dollars, I would have gone to the colorful world of Shanghai long ago. Who is still here?"
Outsiders didn't know it, but Mei Changyuan and Ding Zuopeng knew it all. Looking at Han Baihang's look that seemed drunk but not drunk, they both understood.
No wonder Han Baihang was so polite. It turned out that he was here to ask for money from Xu Wangtang. Mei Changyuan sat aside and was secretly happy in his heart. As long as the two of them could make a fuss, he would benefit from it. The bigger the fuss, the better.
Ding Zuopeng, on the other hand, was restless. Han Baihang was so confident that he came to ask for money alone. Could it be that he had something to rely on, or that Wu Peifu was preparing to intervene?
But Ding Zuopeng then thought again, Wu Peifu is now in Tianjin. The second Tianjin Conference is now known to the whole country, and Wu Peifu is too busy to take care of himself that he has no time to pay attention to such things.
Even so, Ding Zuopeng was still a little wary of Han Baihang. After all, he had made brilliant military achievements all the way back from Shanghai, so he couldn't help but worry, so he could only pretend to drink to cover up his uneasiness.
After Xu Wangtang finished speaking, he looked at Han Baihang and the two were silent for a while. Han Baihang suddenly patted his forehead and said: "Look at my head, I drank too much. Twenty thousand oceans, I said two million."
, Damn it, it’s really damned. Come on, I’ll punish myself with another drink.”
After saying that Han Baihang seriously raised his glass and drank it, Xu Wangtang could only keep company. Seeing that Han Baihang was so drunk, everyone just thought he was talking nonsense and wanted 20,000 oceans. When he said it was 2 million, they didn't pay too much attention and started to talk to him.
People around me discussed how much they should donate.
Xu Wangtang put down his wine glass and sighed: "Captain Han, I have also heard about what happened to your men. Bandits are raging and the people are not living in peace. The soldiers bravely killed the enemy and sacrificed their lives for the people. In this way, I donate three thousand oceans as a token of condolences.
The dead soldiers."
With Xu Wangtang taking the lead, the people sitting below also started shouting. The housekeeper took a pen and paper and wrote down the money pledged one by one.
After a while of commotion, there were naturally endless compliments, but in their hearts they were cursing Xu Wangtang and Han Baihang for eating people without spitting out their bones. They just came back and tried their best to make money.
The money was donated, so the remaining meals were easier to eat. After three rounds of drinking, Xu Wangtang's face also showed a little flush.
At this time, the housekeeper came over and leaned into Xu Wangtang's ear. After whispering, Xu Wangtang raised a smile on his lips.
The smile was very shallow, but Han Baihang still noticed it. Xu Wangtang was about to stand up, as if he wanted to say something.
Suddenly Han Baihang hugged Xu Wangtang's waist and vomited profusely. Xu Wangtang was caught off guard and was vomited all over by Han Baihang. He felt sick and hurriedly stepped back.
"Come on! Go on...keep drinking!"
Han Baihang was drunk into a puddle, but he still held up the wine glass to drink. Just as he was about to put it into his mouth, he fell down on the table with a plop, knocking over countless dishes. It was so ugly. Xu Wangtang pressed a letter in his arms and said,
His brows furrowed tightly.
"Take him down!" Xu Wangtang ordered, and two people immediately helped the drunk Han Baihang into the guest room.
Now that the money has been donated, the wine has been drunk, even the protagonist has left the scene, and the rest of the supporting characters have naturally left the scene one after another.
In a matter of moments, the Xu family courtyard went from noisy to quiet, leaving only a mess all over the courtyard.
Xu Wangtang changed his clothes and sat on a chair in the lobby with a dark complexion. On the table next to him was a cup of sober tea and a piece of yellowed letter paper.
"Sir, Han Baihang has gone to bed." Xu San walked in and reported to Xu Wangtang.
Xu Wangtang waved his hand and signaled Xu San to go down first. At this time, Ding Zuopeng came out, his face also darkened, and asked Xu Wangtang: "My dear, what kind of medicine is this Han Baihang selling in his gourd? He wants us to give the money for the cigarettes."
Spit it out?"
Xu Wangtang slapped the table, snorted angrily and said: "That's our money to begin with, what do you mean by spitting it out? This Han Baihang is so good at tricks that he thinks I can't cure him by pretending to be drunk. What about the person you contacted?
How are you doing?"
Ding Zuopeng frowned and said: "Everyone is in place, but there is still a little problem?"
Xu Wangtang frowned and said, "Small problem? What small problem?"
Ding Zuopeng said: "According to what I saw in the lobby, the courtyard was closed after Han Baihang left. I didn't even wait for a moment. It felt like everyone had left."
"Empty?" Xu Wangtang said with some displeasure: "Didn't you send someone in to take a look?"
Ding Zuopeng looked confused: "Why didn't anyone come in to take a look? But as soon as he got close, he was beaten. Then he didn't dare to get closer and could only watch from a distance."
Xu Wangtang muttered: "There are so many people, it is impossible to escape all at once. Just stay outside and wait until midnight to start on time, and nothing will go wrong!"
Ding Zuopeng nodded and said: "I know!"
"Let's do this for now. Find a few trustworthy people to open the city gate. You should go the same way as before."
Ding Zuopeng nodded and was about to walk out when he suddenly turned around and looked at Xu Wangtang and said: "At the banquet, I saw that you seemed to want to say something. What did you say in the letter?"
Xu Wangtang was stunned for a moment, then took the letter back without leaving any trace, and waved his hand: "Nothing, it's just a list of Han Baihang's crimes. You can go back first."
Although Ding Zuopeng felt it was a bit strange, he didn't take it to heart. The top priority was to deal with Han Baihang, and turned around and left the Xu Mansion.
At this time, Han Baihang was lying on the boat, listening to the noise outside. After confirming that no one was there, he turned over and fell off the bed, quietly looking outside through the crack in the door. His eyes were alert, and there was no trace of him being drunk.
Han Baihang sneaked out while no one was outside and went straight to Ding Qingyao's house.
After going around a long circle, Han Baihang finally found Ding Qingyao's boudoir and was about to knock on the door. At this time, Xu Wangtang's voice came from behind and he hurriedly hid in Ding Qingyao's boudoir. The strange thing was that there was no one in the room, and there was no one from Ding Qingyao at all.
shadow.
"Did anyone take him there?"
"If I go back to the master, I'll tie him up in your room and I won't be able to escape even if I want to."
"Well, that's good. You can move everyone away later. There is such a big scandal in the Xu family, and we can't let outsiders hear about it."
"I know, sir, don't worry."
The two of them walked away while they were talking. Han Baihang gently opened the door and looked at the backs of the two leaving. He felt that something was not right, so he hurriedly followed.
