Chapter 395: Jiangcheng Xing
The whole process took fifteen hours without stopping, and Xu Ran was almost half-resting and half-driving in the car, and finally came to Jiangcheng at about three o'clock in the morning.
Speaking of which, it took so long or Xu Ran miscalculated.
He ignored the horrific flow of people during the peak of the Spring Festival travel period.
The traffic flow along the way is very huge, and there is congestion at the toll booth in some places, otherwise the usual speed should not exceed eight hours to reach the destination.
After all, Xu Ran once drove from Xiacheng to the Western Capital, and it only took six or seven hours to travel about the same distance from Jiangcheng.
This time he came to Jiangcheng, Xu Ran brought a set of gravitational magnetic field spatial positioning equipment that was copied by the robot in the fragmented city.
It is a simplified and upgraded version of the equipment that Xu Ran once purchased from Germany after An'an analyzed and cracked its working principle and functional structure, and its function is no worse than the original, and even adds artificial intelligence system management, which is more convenient to control.
In addition to that set of equipment, Xu Ran also came to bring a few collected star core meteorites this time.
Although the factory here in Jiangcheng is still under intense construction, and the erection of the second teleportation point still has to wait, there is no problem to set up a simple temporary fixed-point teleportation point at home here, Xu Ran doesn't want to drive or do an airplane next time, how can there be a fixed-point teleportation more convenient and fast.
Parked the car in the dedicated basement garage for buying a luxury house, got on the elevator to the door of the house, Xu Ran took the key and opened the door and entered the house.
However, while changing his shoes, Xu Ran suddenly noticed a shadow passing by in the room, and then he felt a strong wind hit him.
Xu Ran was slightly startled, turned around to avoid it, and then pressed the switch to turn on the light in the living room.
Swish!
Just when the light was turned on, another strong wind struck, but it stopped at Xu Ran's shoulder.
Xu Ran turned around and saw that it was Li Ruhong wearing pajamas, holding a stick in her hand, and her face had been vigilant and vigilant, so she relaxed, and couldn't help laughing: "What, treat your man as a thief?"
Li Ruhong's face changed to a coquettish look, and she couldn't wait to hammer the chest with a small fist: "Why don't you tell me when you come, I'm scared to death in the middle of the morning!"
As she spoke, she brought slippers, helped Xu Ran take off her coat, and then helped him put the bath water.
Xu Ran said while undressing: "I was expected to arrive at about seven o'clock, but the traffic jam on the road was more serious, and it took me twice as long!"
Li Ruhong looked a little surprised when she came out: "You came by car, why didn't you take a plane?"
"There are some things that can't be checked in on the plane!"
Li Ruhong didn't ask what it was, she knew that Xu Ran would definitely say it if she wanted to tell her, and if she didn't want to tell her, she must have his reasons, so she just said: "Then if you are hungry or not, I will give you something to eat!"
"Okay!"
Xu Ran glanced at the ever-changing goblin, and then didn't take the pajamas she handed over, as soon as he stretched out his hand, he pulled her into his arms, and chuckled: "Then let's eat now!"
Li Ruhong understood the ambiguity in her words, and couldn't help blushing, and the man suddenly felt rippled, but he still hammered his chest with a small fist and said, "Stinky man, go take a bath!"
"You wash with me!"
Xu Ran picked her up, and then went into the bathroom, and after a while, there was some indescribable shallow hissing in the bathroom, like a cat barking in spring.
……
Nine o'clock in the morning.
After Xu Ran got up, Li Ruhong had already made breakfast for him.
After getting up and washing up, Xu Ran came to the dining table and sat down, Li Ruhong helped him fill a bowl of black rice porridge and helped him start peeling eggs.
After drinking a few mouthfuls of porridge and eating side dishes, he took the eggs peeled by Li Ruhong, and said slowly, "How do you feel here?"
"Fortunately, I can get used to the environment here quickly, and I have work to do every day, which is very fulfilling!"
Xu Ran ate the egg, drank the porridge by the way, put down the spoon and said: "Before I came, something happened in Xia Cheng again, and among the information we got before, few of them were related to the people of the Cai family, do you think there is any connection?"
Li Ruhong's expression became a little solemn, and said, "Why did you have a conflict with the people of the Cai family again?"
"There is no conflict!"
Xu Ran shook his head and said: "Now it's just that the people over there are building momentum and trying to get the No. 7 position, the Cai family wants the shares of Jianlin Industry that I hold, these business things can only be carried out through commercial channels or businessmen's methods, if they want to use the right method, it is a miscalculation!"
Li Ruhong said: "That Wang Jian has always been a person from the Cai family, but when the surnamed Lu was first established to win over, he became a grass on the wall, which also has the meaning of Cai Lao's acquiescence, but Wang Jian still has the handle in our hands, he shouldn't dare to mess around!"
Xu Ran said, "How much do you know about the Peng family?"
"Peng's?"
Li Ruhong was surprised and said, "Is it the Jianghuai Peng family, or the Peng family in Xia City?"
Xu Ran said: "Is there a difference?"
Li Ruhong seemed to have some understanding of the Peng family, and nodded: "There is a difference, Xia Cheng is not only the loser of the Peng family's business inheritance struggle, but also has a complicated relationship with the Cai family, belonging to the son-in-law of the Cai family, but the two branches of the Cai family are in trouble."
Therefore, the Xia Cheng Peng clan belongs to the existence of the two sides that are not to be seen, but they have a complex relationship with both sides, they have always wanted to break away from the influence of the two families, but they have never been able to cut it, that is, they can't get the political help of the Cai family, and they can't get the economic support of the Jianghuai Peng family, so they can only survive in the cracks......"
Xu Ran felt that the relationship between the two families was really messy enough, and said, "What is the reason for that?"
"The reasons can be said to be many, as far as I know, when the children of the Peng family and the children of the Cai family got married, the members of the two families had great differences of opinion, but Peng Sheng and Cai Qiuxun were forcibly combined together, which led to the conflict between the two branches of the Cai family, and the Peng family also moved away from Xiacheng to Jianghuai because of the fate of the Cai family, but sold the family property to the Ni family in the neighboring province who had a grudge against the Cai family.
In fact, to put it bluntly, the two branches of the Cai family, one holding a money bag and the other holding a pen, and the Peng family was also divided into two factions at that time, one faction was willing to cooperate with the Ni family, the enemy of the Cai family, and the other faction wanted to marry the Cai family.
Peng's was in a predicament at that time, and he held a grudge against the money bag at that time, and was forced to move away after taking revenge, selling part of the family's property that could not be moved away to the Ni family who had a grudge against the Cai family, and this fuse caused the Cai family's pen and money bag to have a conflict and break up, and after the Peng family moved to Jianghuai, the Peng family also had a split within the Peng family, because Peng Sheng's branch brought extremely heavy losses to the family and had to go away, so Peng Sheng's branch lost the right to inherit at the same time, and was also constantly excluded by the Peng family, this branch had to return to Xiacheng again to develop, but the Cai family did not want to see, and the Peng family did not support, the Ni family's attitude is also unclear, which leads to a very difficult situation for the Peng clan in Xia Cheng, and there has been no good development......"
After listening to these things, Xu Ran felt that such a situation would be formed, mainly because Peng Sheng and Cai Qiuxun disregarded the overall situation and disregarded the interests of the family.
Because of his youthful and hot-blooded impulsiveness, he selfishly united because he only cared about his so-called love, and in the end, he was happy with himself, but he suffered others, causing a split within the two families.
And in the end, they still have to bear the bitter fruit themselves, and at the same time, they pay a huge price for it.
