Gong Yu's sympathy for Zhao Rong was about to overflow. He had never thought that anyone could remain calm when they knew that their parents were sincerely trying to kill them.
He felt that it was not easy for Zhao Rong to live such a long life, and the road ahead would be even more difficult. As the eldest brother said, once Zhao Rong left the Zhao family, he wanted to get anything from the Zhao family, basically
Impossible.
But for teenagers, this world is still very unfamiliar, and taking this step may already be extremely difficult. But after taking this step, the difficulties they will face will definitely be much greater than they imagined.
But no matter what, although Gong Yu knows that there will still be various challenges and difficulties in life for Zhao Rong in the future. But for now, it is important to get him out of the Zhao family first, otherwise Zhao Rong
Rong may not even have a future.
Soon it was time for the banquet at noon. Brothers Gong Jian and Gong Yu quickly arrived at the lobby of Yuelai Inn. As soon as the shopkeeper of Yuelai Inn saw the two brothers coming downstairs, he immediately greeted them and said politely:
"Are the two young masters going to a banquet?" Seeing Gong Jian nodding, he immediately called for a waiter to lead the way for Gong Jian and his brothers.
The place where the man invited the Gong Jian brothers to the banquet was not too far away, but in a two-story wine shop next door. The waiter took the two brothers directly to a private room on the second floor, and then knocked on the door.
When he opened the door, he bowed aside and invited Gong Jian and his brothers to come in.
Seeing that the waiter was so familiar and took them directly to the door of the private room, Gong Jian knew that the relationship between that person and the owner of Yuelai Inn should be very close. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the waiter to know that person.
The specific address of the guest is so familiar.
Without waiting for the two brothers to think too much, since the private room door had been opened, the Gong Jian brothers naturally walked in quickly. As soon as they entered the private room, they saw someone already in the room, sitting at the table.
The man looked to be in his forties, with an ordinary appearance, medium height, and a slightly dark complexion. He looked like a very ordinary person. If thrown into the crowd outside, it would be difficult to identify him. He is such a person
, when he saw the two brothers coming in, he immediately stood up from the table, bowed his hands to the two brothers, and at the same time introduced himself.
"The two young masters of the Gong family are well. I am a local businessman, my surname is Li. I know that you want to inquire about the whereabouts of a salesman, and because I know his specific situation, I took the liberty to come to visit you.
.”
Brother Gong Jian didn't pay too much attention to Boss Li's self-introduction. After all, they already knew that this person was a local acquaintance of the salesman brother and a local gangster. It would be best to find him to understand the situation, but since
This man had already admitted his connection with the salesman, and the Gong Jian brothers simply went straight to the point and revealed their identities.
Of course, the main reason why they were so candid was that Gong Jian was thinking about whether this person could be of any help to Zhao Rong in the future. "Hello, Boss Li, we two brothers are from out of town. This time
I came here mainly because I have something to do with my salesman brother and I need his help."
Boss Li was also very surprised by Gong Jian's frankness. Since he got straight to the point, he didn't care to make his purpose clear. "Oh, I think this young master Gong must be the master who just won the imperial examination.
I didn’t expect that in our small county, there are things that you need to do. I wonder if there is anything that I need help with. I have some power in this place. I don’t know if I can use it.
My place?”
Gong Jian was even more happy when he saw that the other party expressed his intention to come. Of course, what he likes most are straightforward people, and looking at boss Li's speech and behavior, he can be regarded as a somewhat responsible person.
Although Gong Jian didn't want to tell the story about Zhao Rong directly, he currently needed to contact the salesman, which was indeed essential, so he simply mentioned the matter to test the attitude of Boss Li.
"It's like this, Boss Li, we two brothers are here mainly to discuss something with the salesman brother. But for now, we two can't contact him, and I don't know if your boss has any way to allow us to do so.
Meet me?"
Hearing Gong Jian's request to meet with the salesman, Boss Li thought to himself. It was just as he had guessed. Someone must have instigated the salesman to suddenly come to the county town and work in Zhao's house.
. Obviously, Gong Jian is the boss behind this matter.
It's just that the two parties have just come into contact now, so it's not easy to find out what they are planning. But since they have made it clear directly that they want to meet the salesman, and I can indeed help with this matter.
It happened to be an opportunity for him to express his attitude, so Boss Li immediately made the decision: "Don't worry, Mr. Gong, I will let the salesman meet you tonight."
Of course, Gong Jian was very satisfied with what Boss Li said, but he was very surprised when the other party addressed him. This call of "master" really shocked Gong Jian. He was still young master just now, why did he become young master now?
It's my lord.
When he thought about it again, Gong Jian understood a little bit about the person who held the title of Juren Master written on the invitation. It seemed that this person valued his own identity and his identity as a Juren person. In this small county, he could be regarded as having a certain degree of success.
of energy.
But Gong Jian believes that when people call him Young Master, he can barely respond. After all, he has a certain status now, so he can barely accept being called Young Master. But when he is called Master, Gong Jian
It was a bit unbearable. After all, his parents were still there, and besides, they were from a poor family, and they had never been called "lord or lady".
And for some reason, Gong Jian actually had a funny feeling deep down in his heart when he was called Master Gong, Young Master Gong, etc. by others. Although he didn't know where this inexplicable feeling came from.
, but it has always truly existed.
No matter what, Gong Jian didn't want to be called "Sir". It seemed that he was called a bad old man all of a sudden. So he immediately handed over his hand and said: "Boss Li is really too polite. I can't bear to be called "Sir".
Okay, since we all know Brother Salesman, let’s just treat him as personal friends. I’ll call you Boss Li, and you can call me Gong Jian. Just my name is fine, and don’t use honorifics.”
