Chapter 344: The Reception Banquet
As soon as the island man saw the blood jade, his eyes straightened, and he stared at the blood jade for a long time. I noticed his expression at the time, and there was a glint in his eyes, which seemed to be an expression of excitement, but he deliberately hid this ecstasy from others. But I watched all his every move, and I could guess from his reaction that he must have known the origin of this piece of blood jade. Fang Xiaowei seemed to recall the reaction of the island people, and still felt a little strange.
However, he didn't tell Yu Wuye clearly, but asked Yu Wuye about the origin of the blood jade, and Yu Wuye didn't know much about it, so he said a few words vaguely. After that, I saw a very strange smile on the faces of the island people. I guess he must have had an idea about the Blood Jade, because the matter of their cooperation has already been negotiated, and the islanders said that they want to stay in the Jade City for a few more days, and it will be regarded as a play. Yu Wuye said that he wanted to do his best to be a landlord, so he held a party for the people of the island country. Fang Xiaowei stopped, took two sips of water, and cleared his throat.
"At the party, the islanders had a lot of fun, and I was lucky enough to be able to party. Because it was in the fifth master's own home, the people of the island asked to appreciate the blood jade again, and the fifth master didn't say a word, so he ordered someone to take out the blood jade. In the hall, when the islanders saw the blood jade again, there was still a fine light in their eyes. He suddenly covered his stomach and yelled that he was in pain alone, Yu Wuye hurriedly sent someone to call the doctor over, but he asked Yu Wuye to accompany him to the hospital. Yu Wuye had no choice but to agree, and before leaving, he called me to the hall and asked me to take a look at this box, Yu Wuye thought that I didn't know what was in this box, so he was relieved to let me look at it. And in addition, I have been conscientious and hardworking in front of him for so many years, and he also trusts me very much. Fang Xiaowei said so many words in one breath that his mouth was prone to dryness, so he had to stop and continue to drink a few sips of water.
"As soon as they left, I hid the box in a place that only I knew. I've been following him for so many years, and I've actually figured out the fifth master's home very clearly, and when I just hid the blood jade and returned to the hall, my head suddenly turned black, and I didn't know anything. When I woke up, I was already in the hospital, and Yu Wuye sent his men to send me over. They briefly asked me about it, but they couldn't ask any questions and left. I came out of the hospital and took the opportunity to secretly take out the blood jade, I wanted to fly away, but I didn't expect to be discovered by Yu Wuye so soon that I stole the blood jade. I've been hiding from Yu Wuye's subordinates for the past few days, but I didn't expect to be finally caught by them today, if it weren't for Brother Dawei's help, I'm afraid I'm already a waste now. Fang Xiaowei finally finished speaking.
He looked at Kong Wei very gratefully, pushed the box of blood jade in front of Kong Wei, and said, "Brother Dawei, with my personal ability, I can't protect this blood jade at all, so I want to entrust it to you for safekeeping, I wonder if Brother Dawei is willing to help me with this?"
After listening to Fang Xiaowei say so much, Kong Wei hadn't completely digested it in his mind for a while, and after thinking for a while, he said, "This is your ancestral treasure, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to hand it over to me, right?"
Fang Xiaowei waved his hand and said, "There's nothing wrong with it, the so-called capable people live in it, although I really want to continue to protect this blood jade stone for our family, but my strength is limited, and I already feel powerless." And Brother Dawei was able to help you when he saw injustice today, which is enough to prove that you are a person with a great sense of justice, so I am very relieved to hand it over to you for safekeeping. ”
Kong Wei didn't want this blood jade, after all, this blood jade was related to a major secret, but he knew that now this blood jade was a hot potato, and whoever held it in his hand would have countless troubles.
"By the way, where did the island man I just mentioned, where did he go?" Kong Wei still wanted to know all the details of the matter.
"He may have gone back to the island country, I've been hiding for the past few days, and I don't know the specific situation. Brother Dawei, why are you asking this?" Fang Xiaowei looked at Kong Wei with some confusion.
Kong Wei smiled and said, "It's nothing, just ask." After a pause, Kong Wei looked at the blood jade that was pushed in front of him by Fang Xiaowei, and the blood jade still exuded dazzling brilliance.
No matter who sees such a delicate and priceless blood jade, they will want to take it for themselves. However, Kong Wei still couldn't figure out how he wanted to keep and dispose of this blood jade in his heart, so he didn't immediately agree to Fang Xiaowei.
"Brother Dawei, what are you thinking about?" Fang Xiaowei was a little anxious. He had already seen Kong Wei's strength, and he was a member of Huaqing Society, in Fang Xiaowei's heart, he faintly felt that this Kong Wei in front of him was not an ordinary person, and it was very likely that he was still an important figure in Huaqing Society.
Because of this thought, Fang Xiaowei was boldly willing to hand over this blood jade to Kong Wei, he knew that this blood jade was much better in the hands of Huaqing Society than in the hands of Yu Wuye, and now he has added the island people. If this blood jade stone fell into the hands of the island people, the consequences would be really unimaginable.
Kong Wei didn't think of this, what he thought in his heart was that Zhu Liang sent him to Jade City to ask him to integrate all the underground forces here and put them under the unified management of Huaqing Society.
Now that he had just arrived in Jade City, he had encountered such a very troublesome and complicated matter, and he had a strong feeling in his heart that the underground forces in Jade City were not so easy to integrate.
Looking at Fang Xiaowei who was full of anticipation in front of him, Kong Wei finally decided, "Okay, I'll keep this blood jade first, but since this blood jade is your family's ancestral gem, then I will just keep it for you temporarily, and when it is safe one day, I will return it to your family." ”
Fang Xiaowei listened to Kong Wei's words, he was very happy, he secretly thought, this time he didn't look at the wrong person, Kong Wei is definitely a very upright person, and he will definitely keep his word and count his words.
"Brother Dawei, thank you so much. Fang Xiaowei involuntarily shook Kong Wei's hand and thanked him repeatedly.
"You gave me the blood jade, so what are you going to do?" Kong Wei asked.
Fang Xiaowei was stunned for a moment, this question stopped him. He thought about it for a while, if the blood jade was placed with Kong Wei, it would definitely be safe. But Yu Wuye's people still think that he is hiding blood jade, and they will still search for him and arrest him in various ways, he is now like standing on the edge of a cliff, and it is very likely that he will fall off the cliff if he is not careful.
"I don't know, I can only take one step at a time. Fang Xiaowei sighed and said slowly.
Kong Wei suddenly thought of something, when he came to the Jade City this time, the people he brought were all outsiders, and no one was familiar with the local situation, and Fang Xiaowei was a local, and he already knew everything here very well, if he was recruited into the letter hall, it would be very helpful for him to integrate and unify the underground forces in the Jade City.
Thinking of this, Kong Wei looked at Fang Xiaowei and said, "I'll give you a suggestion, are you willing to listen?"
Fang Xiaowei's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "Brother Dawei, say it quickly, say it quickly!"
"I recommend you to join the Huaqing Society, so that you have a backer, and with the support of the Huaqing Society, what will Fifth Master Yu do to you?" Kong Wei gave Fang Xiaowei a suggestion.
"Really? Can I really join the Huaqing Society?" Fang Xiaowei was a little incredible, although he hadn't seen the various prestige of the Huaqing Society with his own eyes, but he had heard a lot, especially the Huaqing Society's battle against the Hong Gang, the four halls of wood, water, fire and earth, which made his blood gush when he heard it. In fact, in his heart, he had already had the idea of joining Huaqing Society, but he had no way, so he had to bury this idea in his heart.
Now that he heard that Kong Wei could recommend him to join Huaqing Society, he couldn't be happier in his heart.
"But, Brother Dawei, I heard that the selection of people in Huaqing Society is very strict, and not just anyone can join. Fang Xiaowei still said with some concern.
Kong Wei patted Fang Xiaowei lightly on the shoulder and said, "Wei Zai, don't worry, I'll leave this matter to me." ”
Fang Xiaowei relieved his heart at this time.
Kong Wei gently covered the box containing the blood jade, then put it in his arms, stood up and said to Fang Xiaowei: "Tomorrow, you can come to Huaqing Jade Company to find me, I'll go first." ”
Fang Xiaowei nodded and said, "Brother Dawei, thank you so much. ”
Kong Wei nodded slightly and walked out of Fang Xiaowei's room.
Walking alone on the street, the night breeze blows on the face, with great comfort. After such a toss, it was already more than two o'clock in the morning.
I don't know if there are still people in Huaqing Jade Company so late? Kong Wei thought so, and slowly walked to the Victory Building. Looking up, you can vaguely see that several windows on the tenth floor are lit.
It seemed that there was still someone on duty so late, Kong Wei walked to the elevator and pressed the switch.
Soon the elevator door opened, Kong Wei walked in, just entered the elevator, followed by two people into the elevator.
Kong Wei saw that it was a man and a woman, the man had a fat head and big ears, a beer belly, a very thick and bright gold necklace around his neck, and a tattoo on his arm, which was a crocodile. The women's convex and backward curves, heavy makeup, and dressing up with flowers and branches, but they are very little dressed, almost catching up with the three-point style.
As soon as the two of them entered the elevator, they began to talk to each other, lingering, and directly ignored Kong Wei's existence.
