Chapter 180: Kindness is harm
As they thought, the Yin family had not yet come out of the grief of losing their loved ones and pointed the finger at the Gu family, although the Yin brothers knew who was the leader behind this, but they had no way to accuse Sangu, they could only attack Jiang Hechuan, who was directly related to the 'ghost building' incident.
The Yin brothers not only impeached Chang'an, and the Yin Mansion was not strictly guarded and the protection was ineffective, resulting in a fire that injured the people, but also sued Jiang Hechuan, the owner of the 'Ghost Building'.
The Gu family did not come forward, but they had taken care of everything in advance, and the Yin family's actions were completely expected by them. Sangu was watching in secret, and Jiang Hechuan was confronting the Yin family on the bright side, dealing with their endless accusations and entanglements.
They are confident, they know that no matter how entangled the Yin family is, it will be useless.
In fact, the Yin family also knows.
Their relentless pursuit is just a drain......
……
After another trial, Jiang Hechuan was disturbed and irritable by the entanglement of the Yin family in the past few days, and this morning's endless arguments - and useless arguments - caused Jiang Hechuan to be angry with his lawyer at this time.
"Boss Jiang, if you only look at the facts of this case, I will support you to continue to be reviewed, because, although they are difficult to entangle, you are sure of victory......" Walking out of the arraignment hall, Zhao Lawyer stopped talking to him.
Jiang Hechuan said, "So what you want to say?"
Zhao Judge continued: "You and I have also been friends for many years, so, for your sake, I must remind you, maybe you also know...... If this continues, even if you win the lawsuit in the end, you will lose a lot, after all, you are a businessman, and you still have to gain a foothold in Chang'an City, and it is not a good thing to oppose the Yin family...... This matter will affect your business in any way and will be very detrimental to you......"
Jiang Hechuan shrugged his shoulders and smiled bitterly: "Yes, you can think of this, but some people just can't think of it...... They always think that if they win in the end, they can ......"
Jiang Hechuan just complained to himself, but he didn't expect Zhao Lawyer to understand what he was referring to, and continued: "But you don't have to bear this." You also know that the Yin family doesn't want to deal with you, so why do you want to be a shield for others? You are in business, what is more important than your business?"
Jiang Hechuan was suspicious in his heart and asked, "What do you mean?"
Zhao Judge smiled, led him into the side corridor of the front court of Chang'an Ling Yin's Mansion, and said, "Maybe it will be better for him to tell you directly." Boss Jiang, you are a shrewd businessman, you should know which is more important and what is best for you......"
Jiang Hechuan looked at it in a blink of an eye, and there was a person standing in front of him, it was none other than Yin Chengyuan, who was still fighting him in court a moment ago.
They kept meeting, and Zhao Lawyer withdrew with a salute.
Looking at Yin Chengyuan, who was standing in front of him with an indifferent face but still calm, he vaguely sensed something.
This was the first time they met in private, Jiang Hechuan didn't know how to deal with it for a while, and Yin Chengyuan paused and took the initiative to step forward, bowing generously, with an expressionless face.
Yin Chengyuan's slight formal gesture made Jiang Hechuan a little admired, he remembered that except for the night of the fire, the Yin family had never made any rude behavior in front of people, even if they were angry and arguing, they never lost their temper.
Jiang Hechuan returned the salute and spoke first: "Lord Yin asked Master Zhao to introduce me privately, what advice do you have?"
"Reconciliation. ”
Yin Chengyuan said these two words, and Jiang Hechuan could feel how reluctant he was.
"What do you mean? You're going to give up the fire?"
Yin Chengyuan sneered: "No, that's impossible, we will never let go of the person who killed my brother." However, we can reconcile with you, Boss Jiang, because we all know who is the culprit behind it, and who pushed our Yin family into this situation......"
Jiang Hechuan asked, "So you're going to use me against them?"
Yin Chengyuan shook his head: "Boss Jiang, don't think too complicated, we just want to ask you to tell the truth, expose their connection with the 'ghost building', and restore the truth of my younger brother's death in the fire...... Instead of asking you to deal with your old friends, maybe they won't know you mean it......"
Jiang Hechuan was silent and did not answer, Yin Chengyuan approached him and continued: "Boss Jiang, you are an understanding person, you know the strength of the Yin family, the influence of our family on the business world will not be cut off because we are not in business now, nor will it change because of our temporary adversity, and the enemy of the Yin family will only cause great damage to you, and joining forces with the Yin family, you may become the next richest man in Chang'an." ”
"Isn't that better than being a scapegoat for someone else at the risk of years of your success? We have learned these days, and your loyalty and dedication to them are really instructive, but what can they do for you when you are in such a difficult situation? Have they thought about you? They hide behind and push you to the front, and you trust them to pay for them, but do they really trust you with all their hearts? Boss Jiang, you have more knowledge in business than we do, so you don't need to be reminded, people can't be desperate, you have to plan for yourself and leave a way back for yourself, right?"
Jiang Hechuan listened to his moving persuasion, pondered, nodded, and said seriously: "Yes, every word you said is right, Lord Yin. People always have to leave a way out for themselves, and I won't be stupid enough to risk all my life for others. ”
"The only person in this world who can trust me wholeheartedly is myself, so I have already found a way out for myself, and my way out is ...... Surname Gu. ”
Hearing this, Yin Chengyuan froze for a moment, then laughed mockingly, and patted Jiang Hechuan on the shoulder casually: "Boss Jiang, why bother? Ruthless as they are, do you think they have a lot of trust in you? You know so many secrets about them, and it's okay to have nothing to do, but the world is impermanent, you never thought that if one day your deep friendship no longer exists, you will become their first target? Will they let you go? Will they give you a way to live? Will it be another fire when the time comes...... Burn down Jiang Yue Tower?"
Jiang Hechuan shuddered.
This time, in Yin Chengyuan's view, it was a huge success.
Jiang Hechuan's face became very solemn, as if some terrifying feeling surrounded him, and he thought of the fire that had not long passed...... If the plaque that fell to the ground and burned down was written with the words "Jiangyue Tower......
He didn't answer, he just shook his head.
Yin Chengyuan looked at him, smiled, and finally patted Jiang Hechuan's slightly trembling arm, stopped speaking, and walked away.
Jiang Hechuan lowered his head and walked slowly on his own path, and at the corner, he met another person.
Gu Qingxuan stood there with his sleeves folded, and called out loudly: "Brother Hechuan......"
Jiang Hechuan was deeply immersed in his thoughts, and when he heard the sound and raised his head, he was really startled, "Why are you here?"
Gu Qingxuan said: "I can't rest assured, I don't want you to face these alone...... So, all these days I come to the trial......"
Jiang Hechuan lowered his face and bit his lip, as if he was irritable, raised his eyes and spread his hands and asked him: "Then why didn't you tell me in advance? You just watched in the dark until Yin Chengyuan found me, and you didn't show up? What do you mean? Show me that you are in control of everything? Advise me not to have different intentions?"
Gu Qingxuan was stunned, he was surprised that Jiang Hechuan would speculate about him like this, he explained: "Of course not, what's wrong with you? Why do you think like this? I didn't let you know in advance that I came to listen to the trial, I just didn't want you to think that I didn't trust you, I didn't plan to let you know until I heard what Yin Chengyuan told you just now...... I showed up just to tell you that I won't leave you alone with these troubles, we've been ......"
"Okay, I see. Jiang Hechuan said impatiently: "Since you know the Yin family's plans, you don't need me to tell you, and you don't have to doubt whether I will tell you." That's it, they asked me to confess to you, to lure me into joining forces with them, do you want to continue to believe me? If you believe, I'll stick to it, and if you waver, then goodbye, I won't care about this matter anymore, I'll stay away...... Or, you can just kill me!"
Jiang Hechuan tried his best to keep his voice down, but he couldn't suppress his excitement, and his last words shocked Gu Qingxuan.
"What nonsense are you talking about, how could I not trust you?"
He glared at Gu Qingxuan resentfully, "That's enough! Gu Qingxuan, don't tell lies! Do you really trust me? Oh, or, have you really trusted anyone? People like you who take one step at a time and see a hundred steps are probably planned a long time ago, if I don't use it, you have to retreat!"
Gu Qingxuan grabbed Jiang Hechuan, who was about to leave, and said heavily: "But...... Can you believe that you are my last resort?"
Jiang Hechuan turned around, the two old friends looked at each other by mistake, silent, and finally Jiang Hechuan shook his hand away first and left without a word.
