Chapter 810: Reconciliation? (below)
Xu Shouwang found Tan Hongru again, and the fifth master took the initiative to take a step back, if Tan Hongru is still stubborn and rigid in his opinion, Xu Shouwang will really be disappointed, which means that this circle has come to an end, and there is no strength to fight against Zhao Izumi and Situ Nan, and sooner or later it will be destroyed by Tan Hongru, it is just a matter of time.
"Go, or not, you give me a positive answer, Hongru, don't let me chill, and let others down, you and the fifth master have not yet reached the point where they will not get along with each other" Xu Shouwang told Tan Hongru what happened, and then said bitterly, he had made up his mind that if Tan Hongru refused, he would quit this circle, find a quiet small city to live the most ordinary life, and stay away from Sichuan and Chongqing without asking about the world.
Tan Hongru, who was originally quite restrained in smoking and drinking, smoked and drank a lot during this time, and sighed, "You have done things to this point, if I don't go again, what do you want?" ”
"Hongru, I'm doing all this for you, for this circle" Xu Shouwang sighed, but Tan Hongru's affirmative answer made him breathe a sigh of relief.
Tan Hongru nodded and said, "Lao Xu, I know that you are loyal to me and this circle, and you have never been selfish, if it weren't for this, you wouldn't be my most trusted friend."
In this circle, except for Uncle Ghost, Xu Shouwang is indeed his most trusted friend, Tan Hongru has always felt that he has few friends, because he rarely trusts others, if he wants to survive in this circle, he has to be careful in his heart, and he can't guarantee that anyone will stab you in the back and betray you, he has suffered such losses many times before.
"What about this matter, shall I arrange?" Xu Shouwang asked in a low voice.
Tan Hongru shook his head helplessly and waved his hand, "It's all up to you."
"Okay, I'll do it and arrange for you to meet as soon as possible, but before that, whether the fifth master's old mansion has to be withdrawn, now there is no point" Xu Shouwang continued, the fifth master has already expressed his sincerity, if they still don't show sincerity, this business will not be able to continue.
Tan Hongru sighed and said, "It's all withdrawn, from today onwards, you don't have to monitor that side so much"
Xu Shouwang finally showed a satisfied look, this is the Tan Hongru he knows, he can get up and down, bend and stretch, there is nothing that can't be passed.
The front of Xishu Group is getting longer and longer, Xu Lin has to slow down recently, otherwise the capital chain will become troublesome, although Xishu Group has a stable cash flow, but after all, the blood transfusion of Chang'an Holdings makes them have to be stable, fortunately, Xishu Group now has clear strategic goals, and there will be no black swan events.
It's just that I don't know which force is interfering with the Xishu Group recently, the provincial local tax bureau requires the local taxation bureau to review the companies under the Xishu Group, and they suspect that many companies under the Xishu Group have tax evasion, which makes Xu Lin thunderous, but there is no way, sometimes the interference from the administration is so fucked up.
This goal is naturally aimed at Zhao Izushi, but who is behind it, Zhao Izumi is still pondering, is it Fang Chuan's side or Beijing's side?
For this reason, Xu Lin had to hold a video conference of the executives of his company, so that everyone should not relax and do not care about this matter, the development of the company is more important than anything else, and at the same time let them have a good relationship with local officials, now Xishu Group has some advantages in this regard, as for the headquarters of Xishu Group, Xu Lin is not underestimating these officials in the system, it is estimated that even the financial statements of Xishu Group can not be understood, not to mention that they are tired of finding it from inside, and the complex equity structure is enough to make them exhausted.
Originally, Zhao Izumi still wanted to walk around, but later he felt that there was no need for this, this kind of trivial matter could not bring him down, it was just disgusting and disgusting him.
Subsequently, Zhao Izushi went to Luzhou and Zigong in southern Sichuan again, Loess and Dawang and others have been there for a month, and everything that should be cleaned up has been almost cleaned up, and the companies under Southwest Industry have also been stationed in Zigong and Luzhou to take over the entertainment industry and other gray industries, and the companies under the Xishu Group have acquired and selected excellent assets, or established cooperative companies to make up for the shortcomings and market share in their industrial chains.
Zhao Izushi's goal is very clear, that is, with the Xishu Group as the leader, the industrial and commercial influence will penetrate into every place in Sichuan, and the Southwest Industry will be the leader to expand the invisible influence and control to every place in Sichuan, and both sides will form an unbreakable chain of interests and barriers, which is too big to fail as Xu Lin said.
Secondly, at a higher level, with Xishu Group and Chang'an Holdings as the two carriages, based on the domestic and international perspectives, but this is not much effective in a short period of time, and it takes time to lay out......
After Zhao Izumi stayed in Luzhou and Zigong for four days, he made sure that Zigong and Luzhou were under control, so he returned to Chengdu, but Zhao Izumi redistributed the territory of southern Sichuan, Leshan, Meishan, and Yibin were in charge of Chen Tao, and Zigong and Luzhou were jointly responsible for the big and small kings and Song Tianhe, in fact, let Song Tianhe be in charge of specific affairs, and the big and small kings controlled the overall situation, afraid that Chen Tao would think too much. As for Situ Nan's side, it was simple and straightforward, and let Han Qing be in charge of the interests of Zigong and Luzhou that belonged to the eastern Sichuan circle.
There is also Chen Zhongzang, who has made many contributions, and Zhao Chuxi did not treat him badly, let him follow the loess and began to take charge in Chengdu......
Before Zhao returned to Chengdu, Xu Shouwang finally managed to meet the fifth master and Tan Hongru again, and the fifth master invited Tan Hongru to the old house for a family banquet, and Tan Hongru happily accepted.
So in the evening of that day, Tan Hongru took Xu Shouwang and Uncle Ghost and Wei Jin to the old mansion of the fifth master, while Zuo Fu and Honghe Ansheng were in Mianyang, and only the second son Qu Wende was left to accompany the fifth master.
Good wine, good food, good tea, but it is already a matter of time to meet again, and both parties are quite embarrassed......
June is already considered summer, so after the evening the weather is hot and humid, originally the fifth master wanted to set up the banquet in the courtyard, but the sky is not beautiful, the outside is really hot, and there are a lot of mosquitoes, and finally had to be in the restaurant in the building.
After Tan Hongru withdrew the manpower of the old house, the old house was immediately replaced by the Qu family's henchmen, and Yao Muren was re-responsible for the security, when Tan Hongru was about to arrive, Qu Wende came out to greet the Qu family on behalf of the Qu family, and the fifth master naturally would not bend down to pick up Tan Hongru, no matter how he bowed his head, the backbone and dignity had to be kept, he fought back and forth, isn't it these things that he is fighting for?
Qu Wende still admires the old man for taking the initiative to take a step back, the old man's life can be described as thrilling, he has already become a legend, and he has no chance to surpass. Zhao Izushi and Situ Nan still kept their promises, and what they promised to the Qu family is still in the hands of the Qu family, which also makes them more confident about future cooperation.
Soon, Tan Hongru's motorcade appeared in the field of vision, and finally stopped in front of the old house, Qu Wende straightened his waist and looked over there, and when Tan Hongru and the others got out of the car, Qu Wende took two steps forward, did not say hello at all, waved his hand and said "please"
Tan Hongru glanced at Qu Wende, knowing that this old guy was angry with himself in his heart, the two had nothing to communicate with before, Qu Wende always felt that he had robbed him of his position, but he didn't know that just like him, he would not be able to do this position in the next life. Shaking his head with a wry smile, and then taking Uncle Ghost and Wei Jin in, Xu Shouwang patted Qu Wende's shoulder and smiled faintly, as for what it means, I don't know.
Qu Wende, who stayed at the end, sneered in his heart, "What's the spirit, I see that you can still jump for a few days"
In the building, the fifth master on crutches sat in the main hall, and the old man Yao Muren sat next to him, looking at Tan Hongru and others who walked in slowly with complicated eyes, this should be the first time the two met after a long time, whether it was the fifth master or Tan Hongru, they were a little old and tired.
Tan Hongru had already seen the fifth master in the front seat before he came in, and it wasn't until he walked in front of the fifth master that he bowed his head slightly and shouted, "
Old man"
The fifth master trembled and wanted to get up, Yao Muren and Tan Hongru stepped forward at the same time and wanted to hold on, but the fifth master waved his hand to show that he could do it, and said in a low voice, "The food is ready, let's serve it."
Everyone was like this, they didn't talk about anything, they moved directly to the restaurant, there was no one else who could serve the table, only the fifth master, Tan Hongru, Qu Wende, Xu Shouwang, Tan Hongru stood behind the ghost uncle, behind the fifth master stood Yao Muren, and Wei Jin took people to stay outside, after all, accidents can happen at any time, Tan Hongru had to guard against it.
"I haven't come to see the old man for so long, it's a faux pas on the part of Hongru, I don't know how the old man is doing lately?" Someone has to speak, so Tan Hongru took the initiative to ask this time.
Qu Wende hurriedly said, "Thank you Hongfu, my father's body is still strong, and he should be ...... for a while."
Before Qu Wende finished speaking, he was interrupted by the fifth master's wave, the fifth master coughed twice, and said in a low voice, "It's all old, no one knows how many years this old bone can live, maybe a cold in two days may be gone, people can live to my age, they have already earned, what else do you want?" ”
Tan Hongru said in a high-sounding voice, "The old man's words are a bit heavy, I think the old man can live to be a hundred years old."
The servants of the Qu family began to serve the food, and there were Wuliangye on the table, which had been treasured for thirty years, and the old man did not drink alcohol but only tea, so this wine was also prepared for other people.
"Hongru, if you really hope that I can live to be a hundred years old, I will be pleased" The fifth master said this very truthfully, in his heart, Tan Hongru wished that he would die early, so that it would not affect him, and he could completely control the Qu family's side, with the second child's behavior and skill, it was impossible for him to be his opponent.
Tan Hongru's face was embarrassed, Xu Shouwang hurriedly said, "We salute the old man with a cup, and I wish the old man good health and a long life."
Tan Hongru followed Xu Shouwang and picked up the cup, several people toasted the old man, the old man replaced the tea with wine, and continued after putting down the teacup, "Hongru, do you remember the scene when you and I met for the first time more than ten years ago, at that time you followed the dead third child, I asked who dared to kill Liu Song in Mianyang, you stood up and said you go, I asked you how many people you wanted, you said that one of you is enough, I asked you what to do if you can't kill it, I let you tell the truth, you honestly said that if you can't kill you, you will leave Sichuan and Chongqing and never come back." At that time, you were still young and frivolous, holding a breath in your bones, trying your best to get ahead, and in a blink of an eye, all these years have passed."
"Old man, without your cultivation, there would be no me today, your great kindness and great virtue are unforgettable" Tan Hongru said in a deep voice, which he never denied.
The old man didn't have anything taboo with the teacup, and said with a smile, "This is also true, if it weren't for this relationship, I guess I would have died by now."
After these words came out, whether it was Xu Shouwang or Tan Hongru, their faces changed instantly, Qu Wende couldn't help but snort coldly, Xu Shouwang was afraid that the old man would be pressing forward step by step, and said with a smile, "Old man, let's not say these unlucky words tonight"
The old man shook his head and said, "What is auspicious or unlucky, it's all up to today, the original family still has to hide and pinch, and this meal is estimated to be eaten in vain." In fact, I couldn't figure out what you did before, but it was the words of the watch some time ago that made me wake up from a dream, and I can't blame you for half of the responsibility for today's situation."
"The old man's words are serious," Tan Hongru didn't admit his mistake, but just said so.
The old man sighed bitterly, "In the past few days, I have been thinking about what caused this situation, why did you put me under house arrest, you wanted to suppress the patriarchal faction, and what caused Chuannan to disappear." Thinking about it, in the end, I felt that I had to bear half of the responsibility, and the public power accident made me mess up, and I couldn't toss this old bone, so I could only let you toss and push you too hard. At that time, you have your considerations, I have my considerations, I think about saving public power, and you want to eat Jianying's territory, this is our contradiction. Later, I couldn't figure out why you didn't save Gongquan, Gongquan's death touched me too much, so there was a break between us, now I think about it, it's not that you can't save it, but you really can't save it, and you can't save it. I just don't understand such a simple truth, the authorities are confused. You, I kind of understand, you don't have much desire for money or women, your desire is ambition. As I said on the day of the watch, if you do this, it is Tan Hongru, if you don't do this, I won't choose you in the first place. So, even if you kill me, I don't think it's possible now, but it's good that you didn't do it."
The old man said it all at once, not to mention that Tan Hongru didn't expect it, even Xu Shouwang himself didn't expect the old man to see it.
"Old man, I have a lot of helplessness, and I have done a lot of things wrong" Tan Hongru finally chose to bow his head, he can bow his head in front of anyone, he can bend and stretch, Xu Shouwang doesn't understand why he refuses to bow to the fifth master, because the fifth master is a father to Tan Hongru, many things represent a father's affirmation of his son, if he bows his head, it is equivalent to admitting defeat. But because he is a father, there is no hurdle that cannot be overcome.
"I don't want to talk about those things in the past, what you did was wrong, I am also responsible, I really have to be investigated, when will it end, this is not the purpose of letting you come today" The fifth master squinted his eyes and said.
Tan Hongru smiled bitterly and said, "Old man, in fact, I don't want to come today, because I don't have the face to see you, no matter what I did before, but now the situation in the circle is caused by me, and I should be fully responsible."
"I said it all, there is your responsibility, there is also my responsibility, the past things can't be changed, but there will be anything in the future, if I supported you at the beginning and didn't fall out with you, there wouldn't be today, so ah, don't say this" The old man said in a somewhat weak voice.
Tan Hongru couldn't help but look at the old man, it seemed that this was the old man who supported him in everything, and without him, he would not have everything for himself.
"The reason why Shouwang is looking for me is because this circle has reached the most dangerous time, if we are still opposed to each other, it can only give others a chance, and finally destroy ourselves, so we must unite and concentrate on the outside world, this circle can be saved. I'm old, I can't move anymore, this time I really don't want to take care of things anymore, in the future, the big and small things in this circle will be handed over to you, I will tell Wende and them, listen to you" This is the last and most critical words of the old man, after saying these words, the old man seems to be relieved a lot, and the whole person is a lot more relaxed.
Qu Wende couldn't help but stop, "Father......"
"Wende, you are talented, but you have to admit that you are not as good as Hongru in terms of skill and wisdom in doing things, help him in the future, and also bring those juniors of our Qu family, as long as you keep Mianyang and Deyang, everything is possible" The old man looked at Qu Wende and admonished.
Xu Shouwang and Tan Hongru also looked at Qu Wende at the same time, and Qu Wende hung his head and said, "Alas, I know"
Tan Hongru still wants to say something, it should be said that he didn't say anything tonight, everything was said by the old man, but the result of the matter was decided like this, Tan Hongru felt a little surprised, it was simpler than he imagined, but looking at the old man again, I don't know what the reason is, Tan Hongru feels that the old man is a lot older, and the appearance of the wind and candle in his old age seems to be really going to fall down at any time.
Tan Hongru was a little sentimental for a while, and wanted to say something, but was stopped by the old man, the old man picked up the chopsticks and said, "Don't say anything, I know everything, you can discuss the rest of the things, now, ...... to eat"
Tan Hongru was silent, picked up the wine glass, looked at the old man, raised his head and drank it all......
This meal was eaten very late, except for the old man during the banquet, everyone drank less, after Qu Wende drank too much, he didn't know whether he was really drunk or fake drunk, and said a lot of things that should not be said, saying that he had been dissatisfied with Tan Hongru for so many years, because he felt that this circle should be inherited by him, but he also admired Tan Hongru's strength. He also admitted that the circle has reached today's situation, and there is the responsibility of the old man, as well as the responsibility of Tan Hongru.
But the circle has reached this point, he has no choice, he knows that he is not the kind of person who can turn the tide, if he has a conflict with Tan Hongru again, then the circle will be gone, and their interests will be gone, so he can only take the overall situation first, and he will listen to Tan Hongru's arrangement in the future.
Qu Wende's words, Tan Hongru believed six points, but he was quite reasonable, but tonight's result made him very satisfied, at least after the old man let go, he completely controlled the circle, and then faced Zhao Izuxi and Situ Nan, he had more confidence, and he didn't worry about the fire in the backyard, so he asked him to retreat.
Until eleven o'clock in the evening, whether it was Tan Hongru, Xu Shouwang and Qu Wende, they all drank a little high, and it was over.
The fifth master, who did not drink, was the most sober, he stood at the door of the main hall, looking at the back of Tan Hongru and the others leaving, I don't know what he was thinking, at this time, the sultry weather finally caused a heavy rain, mixed with lightning and thunder, the pouring rain poured in, the fifth master trembled a little and said, "Hongru, don't blame me......"
