Chapter 153

Later, Brother Jiu figured it out himself.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with this, forgetting each other in the rivers and lakes is better than being trapped in the Forbidden City and killing you to the death, and the fourth elder brother has a new life, don't you have it? Aren't you also stepping into society little by little, making new friends and having a new social circle? Isn't that much better than cowering and hugging like a garlic clove? Seeing the sky and fighting in the nest, it has been fighting for decades, what's the point.

Besides, even if Yinzhen and them emigrate, there is nothing bad in itself, once he and Julia stabilize abroad, he can even take the opportunity to go abroad to see, broaden his horizons, and find more and better ways of life - so, what's so bad?

Thinking about it like this, Brother Jiu is no longer so sad.

That piece of Patek Philippe, maybe it should be said that the emperor lived up to his wishes, and finally let the ninth elder brother find it and ransom it back with a lot of money. When he returned the watch to Yinzhen, he said that it was left by Andre, and it was the only memento they brought from that world, so it was better not to sell it. Yin Zhen didn't say anything, but he could see that he was very moved.

This money is the 70,000 yuan that Brother Jiu left with Ah Yin - it has already been more than 70,000, Brother Jiu is very smart in making investments, and this money has increased several times, plus this year's salary savings. For the rest, after being discharged from the hospital, he asked the red dragon for an IOU.

He also told Yinxiang that he would return the money for the house to him sooner or later, and he would not really let his younger brother have no place to live. Yinxiang waved his hand very boldly: "Brother Jiu, what are you talking about?" Money is a bastard, and you can still earn it if you spend it. I'm in no hurry to move out right now. Brother Jiu, don't worry about this! ”

Brother Jiu stayed in the hospital for two months, escaped death, and his whole complexion was much worse than before. On the day he was discharged from the hospital, he was helped into the car by Yinxiang. Take the words of Brother Ten to say that he had to tie a rope to Brother Jiu's ankle during the typhoon, otherwise his Brother Nine would have to be blown away by the wind.

Everyone was very worried that he would be weakened from then on, so they tried their best to help him recover. In order to allow Brother Jiu to recover his strength as soon as possible, Yinxiang specially made a detailed plan for him, including training to restore muscle strength after surgery, and rehabilitation recipes recommended by nutritionists. Brother Jiu has been weak since he was discharged from the hospital. He couldn't stand for long, so Brother Ten massaged his legs every day to prevent muscle atrophy. In addition, Yinzhen also bought a large jar of protein powder. Then there is the chicken soup that is carefully stewed. Tender beef or fresh lamb. After the meal, you have to pair it with avocado, which is said to be particularly nutritious, but not delicious at all......

Brother Nine has a bad appetite since he was a child, and he doesn't like to eat much, which is the opposite of Brother Ten's "big stomach". The total amount of food he consumes at each meal is only half of Yinxiang's, and he is very picky, he doesn't eat this or that, no matter how good the dishes are prepared, this master will eat a small half bowl at most and put his chopsticks aside. If you force him to finish eating, turn his head and bend over, he can vomit all of them, and make Yinzhen, who cooks sick food, angry enough, and I can't wait to stuff him with a mouthful of hawthorn cake.

Neither can use strong means, and Yinzhen can't think of any better way, so he can only adjust the recipes to be fine and fine, try to ensure nutrition, and then make more snacks, so that Brother Jiu can eat less and eat more.

Everyone is so anxious, and there is a reason for the incident: the doctor said that Brother Jiu was in danger of picking up a life from the ghost gate, and he must not be sloppy in the future, because his body has been exhausted by this car accident, and he can't withstand the big toss, and the family must pay more attention in the future.

So during this time, Brother Jiu ate, slept and slept at home, and even the daily snacks were fresh milk and egg pudding specially made for him by Yinzhen, and he had no other tasks except to grow meat. Slowly, Brother Jiu's body gradually recovered, but he still looked thin and quiet.

This car accident, fortunately, did not leave serious sequelae for Brother Jiu, but he also decided to end his job as a substitute driver, especially when he heard that the owner of the Maserati wanted to plant the black pot on his head.

This matter is actually not as simple as what Brother Ten said in the hospital, and later Brother Nine learned that the owner of the Maserati went to the driving company again because he could not get enough compensation from the driver who caused the accident, forcing them to punish Brother Jiu, which means forcing Brother Nine to pay for his car together.

In the end, it was not resolved, but thanks to the Red Dragon. It was the red dragon who secretly threatened the car owner: if he dared to harass Brother Jiu and the people of the driving company, he would break his kneecaps and make him unable to drive for the rest of his life.

Red Dragon is a gangster figure, so the owner of the Maserati will die down and dare not look for trouble anymore.

When Brother Jiu learned of this, he came to thank the red dragon. Who knew that the red dragon waved his hand and said, there is no need to thank him, in fact, he has something to ask Brother Jiu for help.

"Sjepan has come over." Red Dragon said, "It's right here in the city." ”

When Brother Jiu heard this, he was shocked!

"Why did he come here all of a sudden?!"

"Come and negotiate." Honglong said, "If you want to talk to me about cooperation, if I don't agree, he will find another one, and that's what makes me feel tricky." I don't want to work with this guy, but if he finds someone else, I have a strong rival here, and it will be very troublesome to do business in the future. ”

At that time, the two sat in Honglong's office and talked secretly, Brother Jiu had been discharged from the hospital for more than a month, except that he could not do strenuous exercise, his body had almost recovered his health.

Hearing Honglong say this, Brother Jiu crossed his arms and pondered for a moment before raising his head and asking, "So, what do you need me to do?" ”

Honglong said: "I still want to talk to him, if there is really no possibility of cooperation, then I have to probe his tone to see which one he wants to find." Ninth Master, I remember that you know Russian? ”

Brother Jiu nodded: "Coincidentally, I learned from Sjiepan." ”

"So I want you to go with me, you know Sjepan better than I do. We know them well, but they don't know anything about us, and with you here, you can help me deal with something. ”

Brother Jiu thought for a while, nodded and said, "It's okay." ”

On the day of the appointment, Brother Jiu followed Honglong's car to the meeting place.

The choice is a Qing Dynasty Huguang club. It's called Kai Tak Association. The house is very old, more than a hundred years old, and the stage outside is still there. The place was found because it was under the care of an acquaintance they had in common, so that both of them felt safe.

When he entered, Brother Jiu saw Zeng Guofan's handwriting on the wall, and there were portraits of Tongguang Thirteen Uniques, and the words "Tongguang Zhongxing" inscribed by someone else, and the yellowed handwriting showed the age, and he sighed softly.

"Don't you miss the Ninth Master?" The red dragon laughed. "An old house from the Qing Dynasty."

Brother Jiu snorted without smiling: "What else is the same light as Zhongxing." What a face to say! It's going to be ruined, and it's going to be a fart. Even if it is the prosperous age of Kangxi, it looks bright on the outside, but it is an empty bag inside. ”

The red dragon smiled silently. He didn't just take Brother Jiu with him today. He also brought two of his men. But it's a little strange. He didn't introduce these two subordinates to Brother Jiu, and the red dragon's look at his two subordinates was a little unnatural.

I guess there are some things I haven't told myself. Brother Jiu thought, but he wasn't worried, he knew that the red dragon wouldn't harm him.

The negotiation venue was set on the second floor of the hall, and the group stepped on the creaking wooden stairs, and when they arrived in the room, the two subordinates first went to the corridor to check the movement, and the ninth elder brother stretched out his hand to push open the carved ebony old window.

"It's kind of interesting." He smiled, "It reminds me of when I went to the starling's house and looked at his paintings, and he hid them all in the small building behind him." The yard is a bit like this one. ”

The red dragon looked a little unsettled.

"It shouldn't matter here." Brother Nine comforted him, "Sjepan won't shoot with a gun as soon as he comes in. ”

The red dragon tried to smile, but shook his head: "I'm not for that. Ninth Master, in fact, today...... I really shouldn't have dragged you here. ”

Brother Nine was stunned.

"But it's too late to say this now, and when it's over, I'll tell you why."

As soon as he finished speaking, the two men returned to the house and whispered to the red dragon, "There is nothing unusual around. ”

The red dragon nodded, and at this time, the waiter in the cheongsam came in with a teapot and a bowl. The red dragon asked, "What kind of tea does the ninth master drink?" ”

"Flower tea will do." Brother Jiu said.

The red dragon said to the waiter, "I want white water." ”

Watching the two waiters leave, Brother Jiu sighed, and said in his heart, how can this still be called a cheongsam? If the women had dressed like this, they would have been killed.

He looked down at his watch and asked, "Sjepan is going to be late?" ”

At this moment, there was a sound on the staircase, and after a while, someone pushed the door in and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I'm late." ”

Brother Jiu looked up at the person who came in, and couldn't help but shiver!

Indeed Sjepan! And behind him, the tall and sturdy guy who followed was none other than Shi Suo!

Red Dragon stood up: "Mr. Sjepan, you came on time. ”

Si Jie Pan saw the red dragon, he turned his eyes to the ninth elder brother behind the red dragon, and saw that this thin and quiet young man did not get up to greet him, so he smiled slightly: "Red dragon, who is this?" ”

"It's my friend." The red dragon glanced at the Ninth Elder Brother, and the Ninth Elder Brother Shi Shiran got up and nodded at Si Jiepan.

Still silent.

Seeing that the red dragon refused to go into detail, Sjepan only smiled and did not continue to ask.

Seeing Si Jiepan, Brother Jiu was very surprised, not because the guy he killed with his own hands was suddenly resurrected, but because this Si Jie Pan was not the same as the one in his memory.

The Sjepan who came to negotiate today, although it looks exactly the same as the dead one, but the whole feels more Sven, Chinese speaks more fluently, and the temperament is obviously different from the original one, although it is the same facial features, but the dead one, the savage and greed in the character are polluted to the face, which will give people a "very dirty" feeling. But the one in front of me, no.

Especially when he was wearing a silver and blue Tang suit, seeing the meticulous and finely made buckles, Brother Jiu couldn't help but shake his head secretly: Why is this familiar traditional costume worn on Sjepan's body?

Well, Shi Suo is still the same, with an ugly face of flesh, and he is carrying a weapon, Brother Jiu can see that it is still the DP.

How did this guy do it! actually carries a gun like DP on his back all the time, and guns are obviously banned in China. But it is precisely because the stone lock is never left and right that Sjepan has the courage to wander around the country at will.

In fact, Si Jiepan's change did not surprise Brother Jiu, because he found that the red dragon was also a little different from the one in his memory. As Julia said, the acquaintances in this world have raised their overall personalities up two notches, like a jump from C-level to A-level: Wei Mingyue is much more honest and naΓ―ve than Julia, Yu Jincai is to the extreme, and the red dragon is not as tough and bold as the one with a broken arm, including Sjepan, who is not as rude and neurotic as he was back then...... Is it due to the environment of this space?

Just thinking about it, Brother Jiu raised his eyes, only to find that Sjepan was staring at him!

He quickly coughed lightly and sat up straight.

Although he was a little distracted, Brother Jiu still heard their negotiation clearly. To the effect that Sjepan wanted to expand his power to the south, he was not satisfied with running rampant in the three northeastern provinces, and wanted to get a piece of the pie in the rich areas south of the Yangtze River.

And the Red Dragon is the biggest gang leader in the Jiangnan region, and Sjepan wants to take root here, establish a stronghold, and then expand radially through the cooperation with the Red Dragon.

However, the red dragon didn't want him to come over at all, his principle was that the first thing was not to use the poison/product, and the second was not to use the army/fire. The biggest sources of interest in Sjepan's hands are precisely these two things.

Therefore, the tone of the red dragon seemed very reluctant, according to him, the army/fire, he did not need it for the time being, and he originally had a source; Poisons/products are resolutely not good.

The strange thing is that Sjepan doesn't seem to mind too much about this, he said in a leisurely manner, it doesn't matter, everything takes his time, he just wants to have a good relationship with the red dragon for now, and the days ahead are still very long, and he can develop calmly.

Brother Jiu listened intently, and occasionally heard Schipan turning his head and Shi Suo muttering a few words in Russian, nothing particularly important, nothing more than "this Chinese guy is too long-winded" or something. The two subordinates of the red dragon stood in the corner with expressionless faces and sunglasses.

There is nothing wrong, the only thing that is wrong is that Sjepan's eyes keep sweeping over himself. This made Brother Jiu's heart furious.

Could it be that this guy knows all about past and present lives? He wondered, did he know that he had killed him? Otherwise, what is this guy trying to do by staring people like this, slashing people from head to toe over and over again?

Since the two sides cannot reach an agreement, there is no need to continue today's negotiations. It didn't take long for Sjepan to say, let's stop here, and we'll talk about it another day.

The red dragon got up to see off the guest, and Sjepan walked to the door with the stone lock, suddenly stopped, and then turned to stare at the red dragon and them.

"This gentleman, with a great name?" He asked suddenly.

The red dragon was stunned for a moment, and then he came to his senses, and it was Brother Jiu who asked Sjepan.

"Uh......"

He turned his head to look at Brother Jiu, unsure whether to say the identity of Brother Jiu.

Brother Jiu thought for a while and said, "My name is Xiao Jiu." ”

Sjepan smiled slightly: "Xiao Jiu? Lovely name. I will remember you. ”

Then, he turned and walked out of the room. (To be continued.) )
