Chapter 1009: Rules of the Game
Zhu Tianqing really gave Bian Xuedao a surprise, an ending that exceeded his expectations.
In this matter, the efficiency of the Zhu family is amazing.
Bian Xuedao was on the phone with Zhu Tianqing at about 8 o'clock in the morning, and 12 hours later, at 20:40 that night, Zhu Zhichun came to Wancheng Huafu and personally handed over the topaz bottle to Bian Xuedao.
In the entire Zhu family, there are only five people who really have a relationship with Bian Xuedao - Zhu Haishan, Zhu Zhichun, Meng Yinyun, Ma Chengde and Zhu Thirteen.
Zhu Haishan and Ma Chengde are dead, Zhu Thirteen is not enough and does not want to wade into troubled waters, Meng Yinyun is a woman, it is not good to visit at night to learn the Tao, so only Zhu Zhichun is left.
Moreover, this trip must be made by wishing Sik Chun to come.
Because......
The topaz bottle contained two bullets.
If it were someone else, even if it was truthfully stated that the bullet was taken from Zhu Yugong's body, Bian Xuedao would also regard this thing as a death threat, and then break with the Zhu family completely.
But you can't help but hand over the topaz bottle, and you can't pour out the bullet halfway.
Zhu Tianqing is the most rebellious and talented one in the second generation of the Zhu family, he personally shot Zhu Yugong twice, and Zhu Yugong was not allowed to return to China within ten years, which was a concession made under the pressure of Zhu Boss, Zhu Er, foreign retainers and Bian Xuedao, for Zhu Tianqing, this is already a great compromise.
If the topaz bottle is not sent to Bian Xuedao, not only Zhu Tianqing may be furious, but it may also make Bian Xuedao misjudge due to the lack of information, neither of which Zhu Zhichun wants to see.
Therefore, although it was very awkward for Zhu Zhichun to come to deliver this jade bottle, he still had to come, born in a wealthy family, and there was always something that he couldn't help himself.
When Zhu Zhichun walked into the villa, Bian Xuedao was working out in the gym.
Sudden untimely death in his previous life made him more health-conscious and sports-loving than most people in this time and space.
Seeing Mu Long bring Zhu Zhichun in, Bian Xuedao continued to do sit-ups on the apparatus.
It wasn't until he had done a full round of counting that he got up, and while wiping his sweat with a towel, he joked to Zhu Zhichun: "Why did a bitter gourd face come in, Yin Yun let you sleep on the sofa last night?"
Zhu Zhichun stared at Bian Xuedao's beautiful abdominal muscles and said, "Boss Bian, you don't have to rely on muscles to seduce women, do you need to practice so hard?"
Bian Xuedao said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Everything is empty, and the body is the capital." Have you watched "The Aftermath of a Desert Island"? Now that the plane is so diligent, if one day it encounters a plane crash and drifts to a small island, how can you do it without good health? Maybe one day you will have to rely on your physical strength to save your life. β
Zhu Zhichun sat on a chair and said: "Do you mean that all the flight attendants of the crew drifted to an isolated island with a number of beautiful female passengers, and then you were the only man on the island? β
Putting down the towel, picking up a bottle of water, Bian Xuedao said with a twinkle in his eyes: "Your proposal is very imaginative, how about you make a reality show according to this idea?
Zhu Zhichun said: "If you play that man, it is estimated that you will become popular." β
Bian Xuedao said: "I can't, my appearance fee is too high, and I can't afford the general program." β
Zhu Zhichun sighed and said, "My appearance fee is not low, but I was still sent to you." β
It's almost time to get down to business.
While learning the Tao, he took a sip of water and asked with a smile: "Say, what are you looking for me?"
Zhu Zhichun took out the topaz bottle from his pocket and handed it to Bian Xuedao.
Bian Xuedao walked a few steps, took the jade bottle, shook it gently, and there was a "dingding" sound from the bottle.
He asked Zhu Zhichun curiously, "What is this? Who asked you to send it? What's inside?"
Zhu Zhichun Zhengse said: "This is what my fourth uncle Zhu Tianqing entrusted me to pass on to you." β
"Oh?" Bian Xuedao took the topaz bottle and looked at it carefully, and asked, "This bottle is very expensive, right?"
Zhu Zhichun said: "I have asked someone to identify it, it is said to be from the Song Dynasty, and some say that it is from the Ming Dynasty." β
Bian Xuedao said: "Cultural relics, then I can't ask for it, it's useless." β
Zhu Zhichun said: "Inside are two bullets taken from Zhu Yugong's body. β
Bian Xuedao: "......"
Zhu Zhichun continued: "This afternoon, my fourth uncle flew to Hainan with Zhu Yugong, and on the boat, in front of my father and my second uncle's two assistants, he shot Zhu Yugong twice in the leg. The fourth uncle asked the assistant present to speak, and he said that Zhu Yugong would be forbidden to return to China for ten years. Also, I received a call before I came, and Zhu Yugong's right leg would be disabled. β
Bian Xuedao listened, and his expression became serious.
He opened the cap of the topaz bottle, glanced into the bottle, and then poured the mouth of the bottle into the palm of his left hand - and sure enough, two bullets were poured out!
Looking at the copper-yellow bullet in his hand, Bian Xuedao was not surprised, not happy, or angry, but had a sense of absurdity that he actually underestimated the heroes of the world.
In fact, he expected that Zhu Yugong might be "exiled" abroad, because Zhu Zhichun had told him before that the Zhu family had a tradition of banishing "unworthy descendants". From a certain point of view, the Lala Zhu Tinglan who met in Wutai Mountain was exiled.
In Bian Xuedao's view, due to the balance of power between the two sides, Zhu Tianqing can send Zhu Yugong abroad to meet the sentence "Let him disappear from my eyes", which is already very face-saving for him.
And if you use a feather duster or belt to pump a few times on Zhu Yugong's body before leaving, it will be considered a "super gift package".
Outcome......
A few hours after talking on the phone, Zhu Tianqing used a gun to open two bloody holes in Zhu Yugong's legs, beating his own son into a disabled person.
To be honest, if Bian Xuedao gave birth to a son like Zhu Yugong, after breaking into trouble to a certain extent, he would also have the murderous aura of breaking his son's leg, but he was choking enough to come up with the trick of using a topaz bottle to give a bullet to the other party.
Serving softness can make it so characterful, and it is so meaningful, Bian Xuedao found that he underestimated Zhu Tianqing and Zhu Haishan's ability to educate his children.
He thought that Zhu Tianqing, who gave birth to an incompetent man like Zhu Yugong, was also a gentleman, but he didn't expect Zhu Tianqing to inherit Zhu Haishan's heroic temperament and be an out-and-out hero!
That's ridiculous......
Zhu Haishan gave birth to Zhu Tianqing, but Zhu Tianqing gave birth to Zhu Yugong, is it really rich for three generations?
Even if Zhu Zhichun is not as good as Zhu Tianqing in some aspects, he is definitely the best among people in terms of ability and character.
Seeing that Bian Xuedao was stunned by the bullet on the palm of his hand, Zhu Zhichun said slowly: "My second uncle played a great role in this incident. β
Bian Xuedao raised his head and looked at Zhu Zhichun.
Zhu Zhichun continued: "In the Zhu family, it is not my father who can really suppress my fourth uncle, but my second uncle. β
Bian Xuedao thought about it, put the bullet back into the jade bottle, closed the lid, played with the jade bottle and asked, "You said that your fourth uncle took Zhu Yugong to Hainan?"
Looking at the topaz bottle in Bian Xuedao's hand, Zhu Zhichun nodded: "Yes." β
Bian Xuedao asked: "Why did you go to Hainan?"
Zhu Zhichun groaned for a while and said, "My grandfather has a family rule, and I wish my family is not allowed to use guns on the ground in China. β
Bian Xuedao asked, "What kind of rule is this?"
Zhu Zhichun said: "I once had an uncle, born to my second grandmother, extremely smart, very popular with my grandfather, in the 80s of the last century, because of playing with guns, was severely beaten. β
Bian Xuedao asked, "Dead?"
Zhu Zhichun nodded.
Bian Xuedao asked in surprise: "Your grandfather can't save so many friends?"
Zhu Zhichun said in a deep voice: "My uncle resisted arrest. β
Got it......
Playing with guns and resisting arrest, not to mention that in that era of "strike hard", even if it is released now, there will be only one result.
This makes sense why Zhu Haishan implemented the "family gun ban".
Maybe Zhu Haishan thought about it, if that son didn't play with a gun, he would be able to save people. And I wish the family more and more prosperous and bigger, and it is inevitable that the good and the bad in the family will be uneven, and it is inevitable that there will be arrogance.
If some behaviors that obviously touch the red line of the country's laws are not restricted, this one will come out with a gun today, and the one will come out with a gun tomorrow, and no matter how deep the foundation of the Zhu family is, it will be difficult to continue peace.
After a while, seeing that Bian Xuedao didn't speak, Zhu Zhichun said: "Zhu Yugong's page has been revealed, don't go to your heart." β
Bian Xuedao endured and endured, but he still couldn't hold back, he asked Zhu Zhichun: "Why did your fourth uncle kill Ma Chengde?"
This question is very direct, so direct that it may make Zhu Zhichun uncomfortable, but since Zhu Tianqing sent two bullets, Bian Xuedao must solve the doubts that haunt his heart.
In Bian Xuedao's view, there is a logical contradiction between Zhu Tianqing, who killed Ma Chengde, and Zhu Tianqing, who disabled his son today, and if this puzzle is not solved, it is impossible to accurately figure out and judge Zhu Tianqing's next move.
After Bian Xuedao asked, Zhu Zhichun, who had always known everything, hesitated for the first time, obviously this question made him very difficult.
Seeing Zhu Zhichun's appearance, he said with a smile: "Forget it, it's really hard to say, let's not talk about it, let's go, take you to taste the saffron face of my winery." β
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
During the Olympic Games, although production and emissions were limited near Yanjing, the air quality was still very average at night, and there was no way, the city was too big and there were too many people.
Sitting on the terrace on the second floor of the villa, Bian Xuedao opened the wooden box containing Dao's saffron face and asked Zhu Zhichun: "Of the four bottles, which one do you want to drink first?"
When Zhu Zhichun saw this, he showed a strange expression on his face and asked, "You tell me the truth, is your set of wine really only four seasons, no December, no twenty-four solar terms?"
Bian Xuedao grinned and said, "Thank you for revealing my scars, but I still want to live a few more years." β
Zhu Zhichun took out the rosΓ© wine, looked at the wine label carefully, pointed to the words "Yunxiu Season" and asked, "This is the mother of the main palace?"
Bian Xuedao said: "The eight characters haven't been skimmed yet." β
Zhu Zhichun shook his head and said, "I really can't understand your thoughts." β
While learning the Tao and taking the wine, he said while opening the wine: "It is precisely because of the aesthetic differences that human beings can reproduce so far, if men and women only like one kind of the opposite sex, they would have been bleeding a long time ago." β
Zhu Zhichun said: "Don't interrupt, you know what I mean. β
Bian Xuedao asked rhetorically: "Did you marry Meng Yinyun because you love her, or because of her family background?"
Zhu Zhichun looked at the street lamps in the community and said, "Both." β
The wine opened.
Bian Xuedao asked, "Do you want to wake up?"
Zhu Zhichun glanced at the wine bottle and said, "Forget it, you are new wine, it will take 40 minutes to an hour to wake up, I can't wait." β
Bian Xuedao was stunned for a moment: "Do you want to wake up for so long?
Zhu Zhichun smiled and said: "You are really good enough as a farmowner, generally speaking, only white wine and Pinot-Noir do not need to be decanted, while the length of decanting time for other wines depends on the type of wine and the personal taste preferences of the drinker, which is roughly 5 minutes and 2 hours at most." β
Bian Xuedao gave a thumbs up and said, "Family history." β
Watching Bian Xuedao pour wine into the wine glass, Zhu Zhichun said: "Fart's family learning, our family was a little rich when I was born, but we are still far from being rich." β
Bian Xuedaoxin said: Your grandfather grasped the general trend of history, how could he have shown his wealth in that era? If it weren't for Zhu Haishan secretly exchanging a large number of priceless cultural relics in that era, how could your Zhu family have developed into a super chaebol in 30 years?
Picking up the cup, he took a shallow sip first, then took a small sip, and tasted it in his mouth for a while, Zhu Zhichun nodded and said: "It is worthy of being a wine made by a top winemaker, with a good taste, a good aftertaste, and a layered aroma, this wine is good." β
Bian Xuedao also took a sip, held the cup and said, "I can't drink your Dao, you say it's good, just treat it as good." β
Drinking the wine in the cup in one gulp, Zhu Zhichun asked, "How do you price this wine?"
Bian Xuedao said: "Tentatively 200 euros a bottle. β
Zhu Zhichun asked again: "How much is the annual output?"
Bian Xuedao said: "Each type produces 60 boxes per year, 30 boxes are cellared, and 30 boxes are taken out and sold. β
Picked up the wine bottle and poured himself another glass, Zhu Zhichun said: "You are a deck card, and there is no market recognition, 200 euros, the price is a bit high, but the selling point is very sufficient, the collection value is self-evident, in the long run, there is even room for appreciation." β
Bian Xuedao asked: "Then do you want to go up a little more?"
Zhu Zhichun looked at Bian Xue like a monster and said: "Boss Bian, you still lack this money? Besides, you only plan to sell 30 boxes a year, even if the price doubles, how much more money can you make?"
Bian Xuedao's face turned red when he was said, and he said embarrassedly: "Didn't I ponder gathering armpits into fur and gathering sand into a tower?"
Drinking all the wine in the cup, Zhu Zhichun took out the red wine from the wooden box, and asked while opening the wine: "Have you ever played the Red Police?"
Bian Xuedao nodded: "Of course I played." β
Zhu Zhichun said: "Do you know what happens when you play Red Alert and only upgrade the base and don't build anti-aircraft guns and walls?"
Bian Xuedao said: "Yes! I was attacked by airdrop, I was blown up by bombers and Blivo, and I was stolen to death by spies and engineers." β
Zhu Zhichun's wine opening speed was much faster than Bian Xuedao, he sniffed it first, then poured out half a glass, shook the wine glass and said: "My grandfather once said that a person can build a family from scratch, but he cannot be unarmed. So it's not okay to just think about how to make money, you have to think about fighting wolves and driving tigers and foxes, which is one of the rules of the game. β
"Fight wolves, drive tigers, and chase foxes?" Bian Xuedao said with a smile: "Be careful that even your relatives will scold you." β
