Tang Zhaonian ran in in a hurry, looking out of breath. Mr. Mao raised his eyebrows, a little unhappy, "How old are you? You haven't even set foot in the house today, and you are so frizzy."
An irritable look."
Mao Huajun said from the side: "Uncle Tang, what happened?"
Tang Zhaonian took two deep breaths and said: "Mr. Mao, it's not good, we...we..."
Mr. Mao's eyes widened and he was so angry that he wanted to hit someone. He had cultivated his moral character all his life and had long since developed a calm conscience, but he absolutely couldn't stand people like Tang Zhaonian, who had been with him for many years, talking like this.
He hesitated and said sternly: "If you have something to say, say it quickly, you are such a mess!"
"Song, the Song family has joined in and united with the Zhu family. Many of our industries have been suppressed, the most serious of which is the international trade industry. At present, the stock market has not opened yet, and the limelight has already been released. Our subordinates of the Mao family
Various industries in the country are experiencing red crises, and many large foreign partners have also begun to meet with the Song family and the Zhu family..."
"What!?"
Before Tang Zhaonian finished speaking, Mr. Mao could no longer remain calm. He grabbed Tang Zhaonian by the collar. Tang Zhaonian trembled. The powerful aura exuded by Mr. Mao made him fearful in his heart.
Tang Zhaonian said: "Mao, Mr. Mao, please calm down for a moment. I have just received the news. Judging from the situation outside, it is very unfavorable for us."
Before Mr. Mao could speak, Mao Huajun stepped forward and said sternly: "How is this possible? Our Mao family and the Peng family already have a sufficient advantage. The Zhu family and the Song family can't turn the tide so quickly even if they defy the odds."
Mr. Mao let go of Tang Zhaonian and sat down. He tapped his fingers lightly on the stone table. Tang Zhaonian wanted to explain to Mao Huajun, but when he saw this, he hurried over and poured Mr. Mao a cup of tea. There was no need for Tang Zhaonian to explain.
The old man took a sip of tea
, said: "The Mao family, the Zhu family, and the Peng family all developed side by side in the political and business circles. Only the Song family, in normal times, does not show much publicity and keeps silently making a fortune. That old guy Song Guoqi is
A typical old fox, we lost this time..."
Mr. Mao looked dejected. Tang Zhaonian stood aside cautiously, but Mao Huajun was unconvinced and came over and said: "Grandpa, no matter how powerful the Song family is, they can't be so strong. I think we still have a chance, even if we occupy the territory before
The absolute advantage is no longer there, and we can try again,"
Mr. Mao shook his head, "The Song family has always been weak in the political world, and Song Guoqi has not been interested in this aspect in recent years. As one of the four major families, how could he not seek development at all? We are just attracted by his appearance.
Being deceived, the Song family in secret may already be extremely wealthy."
Mao Huajun was still unwilling to give in, "Grandpa, even if the Song family is as rich as the country, I am willing to give it a try. After our Mao family has been running for so many years, is it possible that we still cannot gather a powerful force to destroy the Song family too!
?”
When Mr. Mao saw his grandson's stubbornness, he was angry, but he could also understand that when he was young, he was not so fearless. No matter what happened, he would dare to rush forward alone. Young people should have young people.
His arrogance is awe-inspiring. If he is lifeless from the beginning, what hope does he have in his future life?
Mr. Mao closed his eyes. In his opinion, the Mao family has been defeated. The competition between the real big families is not a tug-of-war that requires you to come and go. When the two sides are in a stalemate, victory or defeat is often decided in a matter of seconds.
He had taken the Song family into consideration before, but through his careful investigations, he concluded that it was absolutely impossible for the Song family to help in this incident. He also considered all the conditions offered by the Song family to the Zhu family.
Inside.
Mao Huajun left, with great ambitions, and continued to plunge into the whirlpool of business hegemony. Mr. Mao just closed his eyes and did not stop him.
Tang Zhaonian stood beside Mr. Mao, always hesitating to speak. After a long time, Mr. Mao always kept his eyes closed and meditative. Tang Zhaonian was worried that the old man would get angry, so he opened his mouth to ask in a low voice. Mr. Mao spoke first:
"Xiao Tang, warm up another pot of tea for me."
Tang Zhaonian was stunned for a moment and immediately replied: "Sir, please wait a moment."
The tea was brought up. The best Wuyishan Dahongpao. After drinking tea for decades, Mr. Mao had a special liking for Dahongpao. He could tell the age of the brewed tea by smelling it. However, today he
But I no longer feel like this.
Tang Zhaonian stood aside and looked at Mr. Mao who was drinking tea from his cup. Suddenly, he felt that this old man who was so high-spirited a few days ago had suddenly become much older. The sound of his breath coming out of his mouth when drinking tea was not as loud as before.
I exerted more force, and the light in my eyes dimmed a lot... (One Zero)
Yanjing Imperial City, one week later.
A business war that almost turbulent the entire elite circle of Yanjing Imperial City finally ended with the defeat of the Mao family and the Peng family. The Zhu family and the Song family became the biggest winners. The Mao family and the Peng family, who suffered heavy losses, lost their positions in the business world.
Once the status has fallen for ten years, it will be impossible to catch up with the Zhu family and the Song family in a short time.
Mr. Mao stayed behind closed doors, and Mr. Peng was bedridden. He originally planned to hit the Zhu family hard in business, and then go to war in the political world, hoping to completely crush the Zhu family from their current position. As a result,
What resulted was not the decline of the Zhu family, but self-destruction.
It is already autumn, and the evening breeze is a bit cool. There seems to be a layer of haze that cannot be dissipated over the entire Imperial City of Yanjing. This haze is especially heavy for the Mao family and the Peng family, like a lead cloud that cannot be dissipated, rumbling and oppressive.
Come down.
The entire Mao family and the Peng family are trapped in this gloomy whirlpool. The backbone members of their second generation are dejected every day. This business war involves real money, and the family's financial losses are serious.
They filled in their personal property, unwilling to do so, but they had to fill it in. (Zero One)
As for the three generations of the two big families, since the incident where the three heroes of the Mao family were almost killed, all of them have restrained themselves and do not dare to go out to drink and have fun easily. In the past, when they were high-spirited, the wine they drank was sweet, but now they drink
The wine is bitter, especially the children of the Mao family. They thought they were the descendants of the first family in China and had a sense of superiority wherever they went. But in the end, this sense of superiority was severely stepped on by the Zhu family and the Song family.
Underfoot.
The front door of the Mao family's mansion was deserted, and few people came to visit. The failure of the business community had led to the decline of their status in the political circles. Many people had already bet their future on the Zhu family and the Song family, especially recently when the big leaders personally
Lin Kun was awarded the Medal of National Weapon to highlight his previous contributions in Myanmar and resolve the many years of conflicts between the two countries. Now the diplomacy between China and Myanmar has reached a new level of peace.
Zhu Lao came to the gate of the Mao family's mansion again on crutches. Last time he was carrying a birdcage, like an old man walking next door. Today he has changed his outfit, which is much more formal than before.
The person following him is no longer the butler, but the tall and tall Lin Kun...
