Chapter 86 Asking for something but not getting it
Xiangjiang, Wangge, a private lounge.
Several young men in black suits were guarding an elderly man. They didn't get too close because they knew that the old man didn't like what people around him heard when he answered the phone.
The lounge has three floors, and this is the highest floor. At this moment, a man with a three-inch scar on his face walked up the stairs with a frown. Seeing that the old man was still answering the phone, he looked at a few young people. .
Several young people shouted respectfully at the same time, "Brother Jian!"
The middle-aged man... Brother Jian nodded, "Uncle Qi hasn't finished talking on the phone yet?"
The young people shook their heads... Brother Jian frowned, but still waited patiently by the stairs.
After a while, the old man called Uncle Qi slowly turned around.
"Okay, please send me some information..."
Seeing that Uncle Qi's phone was finally turned off, Brother Jian took two quick steps and walked in front of Uncle Qi. At this time, Uncle Qi said directly: "A Jian, please help me with my personal information. I'll give you the information soon."
Brother Jian was stunned for a moment, then thought for a moment, "Uncle Qi, what happened?"
Uncle Qi shook his head: "It doesn't matter, it's my daughter-in-law from mainland China who asked me to help find someone."
"Daughter?" Brother Jian opened his mouth. He had been following Uncle Qi for a while and knew that Uncle Qi had a child, but he had never heard that there was a goddaughter outside, and she was still in China.
Uncle Qi smiled casually and said: "It was almost twenty years ago. During the fruit formation, a master from Thailand helped me tell my fortune. He told me that I would have a calamity in twenty years, and I would have to eliminate the bad luck. So I didn't have much time to wait, so I turned Zuo Dalu, I’m going to support Zuo’s beautiful girls to study. If you don’t say nice things, you’re really smart. Since I’ve been supporting Zuo’s beautiful girls to study, I’ve been lucky for ten years.”
"So magical?"
"When it comes to worldly affairs, you have to be careful about what you say. It's good to believe it and it's good not to believe it, so just treat it as a good deed to accumulate virtue! Are you having a bad time when you look at my IKEA?" Uncle Qi lit a cigar and slowly He started to smoke, "These pretty girls are looking forward to me, especially this married woman, Zhong Wang... Okay, I won't talk about that. What's going on next?"
Brother Jian sneered and said: "The Prime Minister of the Six Kingdoms, if you don't come out with a dozen police officers to watch, it will look like a Dutchman killing everyone!"
"The Dutch guy is the most popular this time." Uncle Qi said with a half-smile: "I have prepared all the meals, and I know my old uncle who respects me. This time, Bai Toukun, the street boy, is not the only one who has crossed the line. It would be too far-fetched to find someone to estrange from your wife."
Brother Jian said: "The Dutch boy and Bai Tou Kun are arguing about 'talking things'. There is so much chaos in the Seven Kingdoms outside. Several old uncles can't sit still... Uncle Qi, Bai Tou Kun was born with you. Today, the Dutch boy is enough." I have the guts to come to you and make it clear that you are transparent, do you want me..."
Brother Jian made a gesture of wiping his neck.
"What benefit does it bring to us to fight against the Dutch boy?" Uncle Qi shook his head, "In recent years, business has become increasingly difficult to do. If the Dutch boy does not set up connections with the European fruit side and cooperate with the foreigners to launder money, well You call me Qi Lao Ba Shi, but I want to go to the fruit stall to sell durians?"
"but……"
"I know you are upset, but Holland boy must be tough on what he says this time." Uncle Qi sighed, "It's all about the world. This time Bai Toukun betrayed his brother, even if he is from my background, I I can't help you... Well, you tell the Dutch boy, I won't pay attention to the matter between Chu and Bai Toukun, as long as you do it well and don't have any followers, that's fine."
"I know what to do." Brother Jian nodded, then looked at the stairs, suddenly sat down, approached Uncle Qi, and whispered: "Well...Omengo side?"
"He Shengguo will tell you later?" Uncle Qi's eyes narrowed slightly.
Brother Jian said in a low voice: "He Shengwen has already chosen someone, so I don't plan to use Mr. King this time."
"What an old fox." Uncle Qi snorted, "You think I can't weigh you if you don't have any left?"
Brother Jian said helplessly: "But if there is no support from Hesheng, it will be difficult for us to qualify for the competition."
Uncle Qi said calmly: "Don't worry, I have already decided on a way out. Next month you will take Ah King to Malaysia, and I will sit down with Guobian in the casino. Ah King will represent Guobian in this tournament." The 'Gambling Competition'. I heard it will be held in the UK this time. If you are pressed for time, you won't have to turn over and go directly."
"Okay." Brother Jian nodded.
Uncle Qi squinted his eyes and said: "Eat porridge and eat, just watch this time."
…
…
In the office, Zhong Luochen was looking at the report on recent events in the family.
Since seeing Chaofan, his focus has long been no longer on the vortex of family power...but he has not been able to escape from this vortex yet.
Especially since the old man miraculously recovered last year and allocated a huge sum of money to Zhong Luochen, there have been more voices in the family... all of them are people who are close to his brother Zhong Luoyun.
But no matter how many voices there are in the family, Mrs. Zhong will not do anything in the past few years - only Zhong Luochen, Mrs. Zhong, and Grandpa Luo know the reasons.
"However, Third Sister's recent actions are a bit strange."
Zhong Luochen read the information on his hand carefully... Probably from the time just after the Chinese New Year to now, Zhong Luoyue's Four Seasons Group has had a lot of personnel changes, some of which are even at the top of the group.
These people were transferred to other departments, and later some new people were promoted - even Zhong Luochen knew that most of these new people were his brother Zhong Luoyun's staff, and many of them were even Zhong Luochen himself. 's team.
This made Zhong Luochen feel strange.
The industries and relationships within the family are intertwined. Although Zhong Luoyue has always been the dominant player in the Four Seasons Group, in fact he and his brother Zhong Luoyun hold the same shares in the Four Seasons Group. Likewise, the industries under Zhong Luochen's name are the same. There are also shares in Zhong Luoyue and Zhong Luoyun.
What puzzled Zhong Luochen was that Zhong Luoyue's behavior seemed a bit like breaking his own arm... Instead of strengthening his control, he instead activated his brother and his own team. What kind of operation was this?
"medical company……"
The report here also included a project that Zhong Luoyue was about to invest in the UK. Zhong Luochen really didn't understand why his third sister was suddenly interested in joining the medical field.
Zhong Luoyue's series of abnormal behaviors gave Zhong Luochen, who was far away from the capital, a vague feeling of uneasiness.
Ever since he stepped half-foot into the world of the extraordinary side, Zhong Luochen has already given up on the fight for family fame and fortune - or in other words, defeating his brother and third sister and finally becoming the new helmsman of the Zhong family has completely failed to attract him. interest of.
Zhong Luochen knew that this must be related to the deal he had made - but he had to admit one thing. This kind of competition among wealthy families was really far behind the power to control life and death.
.
Especially when the research laboratory achieved results and found a child with superpowers, Zhong Luochen felt even more that he had found his direction - the heart that had been calm about the matter suddenly began to beat.
He simply maintained a sense of accomplishment.
But in the face of the identity, status and wealth of the second young master of the Zhong family, Zhong Luochen suddenly discovered that retaining a sense of achievement seemed to be a wrong thing - everything could be easily accomplished, and it was even difficult for him to find any achievement that could make him
Get satisfaction.
While he was deep in thought, there was a knock on the office door, and Cheng Yun walked in quickly, with a rather unnatural look on his face.
Zhong Luochen casually closed the document on his hand and remained calm.
Cheng Yun stepped forward, hesitating to speak, and sighed: "Second Young Master, the gift you asked me to send was returned by Miss Mo. She also said..."
"What did you say?" Zhong Luochen still couldn't see much emotion on his face.
Cheng Yun took a glance and found that his second young master had always been very well-educated. He had never even seen Zhong Luochen become so angry.
"She said that your course has been completed." Cheng Yun paused, looked at the boss's expression again, and then continued: "She doesn't plan to teach you anymore, so she tells you not to go over there again."
"I know." Zhong Luochen nodded.
Cheng Yun said with some annoyance: "Second Young Master, this Miss Mo is too ignorant of praise. Think about how many women in the capital are happy to treat you, but she actually doesn't even look at you!"
"So." Zhong Luochen glanced at Chengyun with a half-smile, "What are you going to do?"
"I don't plan to do anything." Cheng Yun was startled, knowing that the second young master never liked to use tricks to capture women, so he had to say quickly: "I am just because you are not worthy of the second young master."
Zhong Luochen said calmly: "Since the gift has been returned, let's return it. Go find the landlord of Miss Mo's classroom and see if you can buy the house. Find a reason next month to reduce the rent by 30%.
.”
Chengyun opened his mouth, but finally nodded. As a gold medal player, there is no need to question the boss's decision, as long as it is implemented seriously.
"Go take a look below and tell Master 24, I will go down later."
"Okay, I'll go right away."
After Chengyun pushed open the door and walked out, Zhong Luochen moved his chair back, then opened the drawer and picked out a box - this box contained a sapphire necklace.
——Mr. Zhong, you are a very nice person, but I don’t like you.
Not long ago, Zhong Luochen confessed his love, but received a very cold reply... The second young master of the Zhong family was not too shocked, because he figured out one more thing.
He regarded his love as an asset and used it to buy the old man's five-year lifespan. It did not mean that he would no longer have feelings such as love and like from now on, but that he could not get love and like.
response.
He can love someone, but he can never get the other person to love him back - he can't get love.
Zhong Luochen sighed, because he had sold a lot of things, and even this kind of pain was buried very secretly in the area where only the sense of accomplishment was left.
He shook his head and put the box containing the necklace back into the drawer. After sorting out some clothes, he got on the elevator and went all the way down. Soon after, he met 24.
…
Zhong Luochen no longer doubted 24's ability. The magical crow on 24's shoulder alone caused a lot of hardships for several of Zhong Luochen's martial arts masters who claimed to be martial arts masters.
In the entire superpower research room, in the past few days, Zhong Luochen was the only one who was not afraid or nervous in front of 24.
What is surprising is that the powerful 24 is not difficult to get along with, and he does not even have much temper. The only shortcoming may be just one - laziness.
And it’s contagious laziness.
Every time Zhong Luochen meets 24, he feels like he is about to rot.
"Your smell has become lighter today."
Just as he came in, Zhong Luochen heard 24 say something of unknown meaning.
Zhong Luochen frowned... 24 always said some strange things without any care, and never gave much explanation.
His eyes glanced at the crow beside 24 before he sat down, "I have found the blood of 66 eighteen-year-old virgins that Mr. asked me to find. I don't know when it will be appropriate to send it.
"
"In a few days." 24 yawned, "I've been trying to conquer the rules of this world recently, and I'm a little exhausted..."
‘World’, ‘Rules’.
Zhong Luochen was very keen to capture some mysterious things, but he suppressed his curiosity and just sat here quietly, dazing with 24.
24 just sat hunched over, his eyes were scattered, and it looked like there was only an empty shell left... Time passed little by little, and after about an hour, 24 suddenly shook his head and muttered: "It's really difficult.
, is it so difficult to get a formal identity..."
"Idiot 24! Idiot 24!"
24 raised his hand and caught the crow, then threw it towards the wall. The crow was immediately crushed into a ball of mud, and then slowly slid down the wall.
Zhong Luochen has seen this scene several times in recent times, and every time it feels... so magical.
24 then shook his head, yawned and then looked at Zhong Luochen and said: "Boss, after eating you for a few days, you helped me find something... tell me, how many people do you want me to kill?"
Zhong Luochen smiled and said: "Sir, do you only know the art of killing?"
24 said weakly: "It's okay to make people unlucky."
Zhong Luochen suddenly said: "What if I asked Mr. to teach it?"
24 looked up and said after a while: "You can't learn it. My spell is a talent of the soul, so I can barely use it now... Your world doesn't have this."
"Our world?" Zhong Luochen frowned, pondered for a moment, and suddenly his eyes flashed, "Sir... come from another world?"
"0179"
"What do you mean?" Zhong Luochen frowned again.
24 shook his head boredly, "You are not worthy enough for me to tell you this."
"When will it be worth it?"
24 He smiled slyly and said, "I have been the national advisor of a country...are you a king?"
Zhong Luochen lowered his head, not knowing what to think.
But at this moment, 24 suddenly smiled slyly again, "Although you can't learn it now, it doesn't mean you can't learn it in the future, but you need to take some risks."
Zhong Luochen listened carefully.
24 narrowed his eyes and said: "I can transform your soul, but if the transformation fails, you will die immediately... Boss, do you dare?"
