Chapter 349
"Of course not. ”
Zheng Zheng and Zheng Yuan's eyes looked at each other, and when facing this Zheng family master, Zheng Zheng was still calm: "Taking out the bronze mirror from the Treasure Pavilion is only the first step, after all, we can't guess when the people who sent the antiques will poke out the news, so we can only do this step as soon as possible, so as not to catch us off guard." Next, as long as you find a safe place to keep this bronze mirror, you will be fine. Because once the news is known by the police, it will be a trouble for the police to come to the door and we can't give the bronze mirror, so the bronze mirror must stay in the Zheng family. ”
"But there is also a saying that this stays. At the same time as leaving this bronze mirror, it is necessary to send people to start investigating this matter, whether it can be found or not, whether there are clues or not, this gesture must be made, and it is best to let some of the guests who come and go know that the Zheng family is investigating a matter, and the specific matter cannot be revealed to them. In this way, when the police really came to the door, the Zheng family also had the image of a coordinated investigation that 'noticed something was wrong with this bronze mirror and had already sent someone to investigate'. For the guests, those who knew in advance that the Zheng family was investigating a matter would also confirm the matter from the side, proving that the Zheng family was not kept in the dark, but found out about the matter in advance, and took care of their peers, and did not stab the matter to the official. ”
Although Zheng Zheng said a set of things, it sounded reasonable, but this was just a rhetoric he improvised to deal with the scene. Although this possibility cannot be completely ruled out, what Zheng Zheng is really concerned about is whether the antique bronze mirror, which is very likely to be the same treasure as the bronze balance and has some abilities that are difficult for ordinary people to understand, will take away all the antiques in the Treasure Pavilion at some point.
But saying this in front of Zheng Yuan? Zheng Zheng didn't expect Zheng Yuan to believe this kind of thing that was difficult for ordinary people to accept, so he could only make a slight change in his speculation to make it more acceptable.
After listening to Zheng Zheng's words, Zheng Yuan nodded, didn't rush to make a statement, tapped his fingers on the table and thought for a while, and then said, "Xiao Zheng, what you said is very reasonable...... Let's do it. Yonghe ......" Zheng Yuan turned to Zheng Yonghe and said, "This matter will be left to you, and the matter of keeping the bronze mirror will be handed over to you." ”
"Yes, old man. Zheng Yonghe nodded and smiled.
"But, grandpa ......"
Seeing that this matter was about to be settled like this, Zheng Bei was still unwilling, and tried to make a last ditch effort, saying that Zheng Yuan would take back the order.
Zheng Yuan knew what he was going to say, waved his hand, and said, "Okay, this matter is settled, no need to say more." ”
Zheng Bei opened his mouth, but he still didn't say anything after all. Zheng Yuan made a decision as the head of the family, and Zheng Bei today has no right to question it.
Zheng Yuan stopped talking to Zheng Bei, turned to Zheng Zheng, and asked with a smile: "Are you going to go back to see your father after the New Year?" I have a gift for him, you can bring it to him when you go back." ”
Zheng Zheng shook his head with a smile and said: "There is only the reason for juniors to give New Year's greetings to their elders, where can I accept you? I received your heart for the old man, and the gift is forgotten." ”
"You should do Yonghe such a big favor...... You're welcome. Zheng Yuan said with a smile.
The two chatted like a family, but Zheng Yuan's words had a meaning beyond words. You must know that Zheng Zheng's coming to Zheng's house, including the cooking ushered in and received gifts, all of this was not put on the table, and it was all carried out under a tacit understanding. Speaking of the roots, Zheng Zheng still does not have a specific name for what he has done.
But Zheng Yuan now understands this matter thoroughly, and even admits the matter of "Zheng Zheng helping Zheng Yonghe", then Zheng Zheng has this name, and he will be much more handy if he does anything in the Zheng family.
And more importantly, this also represents Zheng Yuan, officially recognizing Zheng Zheng's qualifications to compete for the position of the head of the Zheng family.
From this point of view, Zheng Zheng won Zheng Bei in this game, and Zheng Yuan recognized it.
However, Zheng Zheng won this game, and only won the qualification to compete with Zheng Bei, and this victory in one game could not completely erase the possibility of Zheng Bei inheriting the Zheng family. This is indeed a bit unfair, but for Zheng Bei, it is the same, after all, Zheng Zheng came out to compete with him for the head of the Zheng family, and what he can easily get now has to compete with others, which is indeed a bit unfair to Zheng Bei.
But this matter cannot be measured by whether it is fair or not, because there is nothing fair about this matter itself, and in the final analysis, it just depends on Zheng Yuan's opinion. Zheng Yuan felt that it was okay to do this, so this matter was fair.
After deciding this matter, Zheng Zheng and the others left. Zheng Yongming and Zheng Bei's father and son didn't say anything cruel when they left, but this Liangzi is settled, and it is the same whether they say cruel words or not, anyway, everyone is like a mirror in their hearts.
"Almost......"
After leaving the conference hall, Zheng Zheng looked at the back of Zheng Yonghe and his son leaving, and said in a low voice.
"Huh?" Zheng Yonghe frowned and glanced at him and asked, "What's the matter?"
Zheng Zheng spread his hands and said to Zheng Yonghe: "This matter is almost over...... Judging by the attitude of the old man of your family today, this ancestor worship should not announce to the public who will be the next head, right? In other words, Zheng Bei will not be able to take over the position of the head of the Zheng family for the time being. So...... That's pretty much it. ”
"You kid...... What does that mean?" Zheng Yonghe vaguely heard what Zheng Zheng meant, but he didn't understand it too much.
"For me, this is the end of the matter for the time being. ”
Seeing Zheng Yonghe's eyes and eyebrows raised for a moment, Zheng Zheng waved his hand and explained: "I know what you think, I know I know...... But even if I really want to be the head of the Zheng family, some things always have to be dealt with before this, right? Besides, I am still involved in a black market, and it will be a trouble if this problem is not dealt with well, if I really compete with Zheng Bei for the head of the family, can I not deal with this well? If I really become the head of the Zheng family, but I still have a black market...... People in the antique industry are not stupid, this kind of thing can't be hidden from the world, the head of the Zheng family, who has always done serious business, is the leader of the black market...... Tsk, don't you think this news is quite exciting?"
What Zheng Zheng said also made sense, Zheng Yonghe frowned and listened, and nodded after hearing it, agreeing with Zheng Zheng's statement. He pondered what Zheng Zheng meant for a moment and asked, "So what do you mean...... Deal with that side first?"
"Yes. Zheng Zheng nodded: "I don't have that much effort to stay in the Zheng family, and I still have a lot of things to do over there." If you want to compete with Zheng Bei, you must stay in the Zheng family and be assigned various tasks by your old man to inspect me...... Besides, if I really want to compete with Zheng Bei, don't I have to pull one of my own people over? If I don't wash the black market, I can't do any of this. ”
"It also makes sense," Zheng Yonghe responded, and said with some unease: "But it will take a lot ......of time for you to finish these things, right? ”
Zheng Zheng shook his head with a smile and said, "It won't take too much time, it's almost a year and a half...... In the past year and a half, there should be no problems. ”
Zheng Yonghe glanced at Zheng Zheng with some surprise: "A black market has been washed in a year and a half? ”
Zheng Zheng smiled, put on a cigarette, and didn't speak.
What Zheng Zheng said was only part of it, and he didn't say anything more trouble. For example, in the matter between him and Zhong Fei, he and Zhong Fei will inevitably score a victory, which can be regarded as stable. In this matter, Zheng Zheng used to win or lose, and he didn't pay much attention to winning or losing. However, in combination with the situation of the Zheng family, Zheng Zheng really had to find a way to win Zhong Fei.
If he loses to Zhong Fei, Zheng Zheng will only have a small antique shop left, and he will have no bargaining chips to compete with Zheng Bei at all. Even if he gives up competing with Zheng Bei at the same time, Zheng Bei, who has already killed Zheng Zheng with Zheng Zheng, will not let Zheng Zheng go, and Zheng Zheng will not even have the ability to resist at that time; Even if he loses the fight, Zheng Zheng can retreat to Z City, and the power of the Zheng family cannot reach Z City, even if Zheng Bei becomes the head of the Zheng family, what can he do?
If Zhong Fei wins, Zheng Zheng will have to find a way to whitewash the Zheng character black market, so that these people can follow him into the Zheng family and become a force available to him. "Whitewashing" is easy to say, but I don't know how troublesome it is to do, Zheng Zheng only has a general goal now, but the specific whitewashing process has not yet been decided, and when the time comes, Zheng Zheng will have a headache.
Putting aside the black market matters, there are also antique games that have been taken over by Wang Di. Although Zhou Qi, the henchman of the ancient game, has been cleaned up by Zheng Zheng, the ancient game is not completely on the right track, and Zheng Zheng has to help from time to time by the side.
There are so many things that have to be taken care of, how can Zheng Zheng still have the effort to spend too much time in the Zheng family? This time, he was recognized by Zheng Yuan, blocking the pace of Zheng Yongming and Zheng Bei's father and son ascending the throne of the family, which was enough for Zheng Zheng. Zheng Yuan has now recognized Zheng Zheng and let him start competing with Zheng Bei, so he will not announce that Zheng Yongming and Zheng Bei will take over as the next head at this ancestor worship conference, which will give Zheng Zheng enough time.
Zheng Zheng needs this time to clean up all these things, and then come back to the Zheng family to compete with Zheng Bei.
