Paris. Weems Castle, which is the site of the mysterious organization.

Weems Castle was built by Duke Weems, who admired the most famous abstract painter Kandinsky throughout his life, so the exterior and interior decoration of the castle are as much as possible to express this style. From the outside, the whole castle looks more like a haunted house in Huaxia.

The two-meter-long solid wood table is surrounded by men and women in suits and leather shoes. Some of these people are still very young, and some are already wrinkled. They were Americans, Englishmen, French, Italians, Jews, and even Chinese, Oriental, or Korean, all of whom had different skin colors, but who had one thing in common: majesty and self-confidence. Even when the most amiable old man sat at the head of the table, he could feel a sense of depression.

"The Huaxia market has completely collapsed, and the defeat is so severe that even God will be surprised. A small 'Tiger Roar' special forces captain can toss us like this, who can explain this? Even if it's a small excuse. For God's sake, I think we, God's most faithful servants, will forgive him. What do you say? ”

The old man, who sat in the first place, bald in the front half of his head, but the second half was luxuriant, with a large nose peculiar to Americans, and liked to make all kinds of exaggerated gestures with his hands when he spoke, scanned the audience, breaking the silence of the hall, and although the words were humorous, only three people present dared to look him in the eye.

A thin but energetic Italian big nose took a sip of strong rum, looked at the American sitting across from him, and said, "Mr. Philip has always been in charge of the Chinese market. I think he has the most say in this matter. And several of his sons and daughters are involved, and he has a lot of dealings with that kid named Xu Feng. ”

Everybody knows that. The second-in-command Odero and the third-in-command Philp are fiercely competitive, and the leader is old, and next year is the time to retire. And the new leader will be chosen from among the two of them, so the two have been fighting for three years, each recruiting his own troops. The leader was glad to see such a situation, after all, it was much better for the people below to fight than for the people below to join forces and fight with themselves. In this way, his right to speak can be brought into full play to the greatest extent.

This time, there was such a mess in the Chinese market managed by the third-in-command. All the members who were active in Huaxia were wiped out, but fortunately, the constitution of the organization was strict, and they were ready to die for the organization and the leader in advance. Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable.

However, even so, it has attracted the attention of the countries concerned. This is very much not in the interests of their organization.

With such a good opportunity, the second-in-command Odro naturally will not let go of the opportunity to fall into the well. Moreover, if the third-in-command Philpool does not make a dazzling result in the shortest possible time, next year's battle for the top may be lost early.

Philpool was a short, fat man with thick-rimmed glasses. Chubby fingers wear a sapphire ring with a faint blue glow. Some people with a discerning eye will recognize that this is the largest and most beautiful sapphire mined in Africa in 1937, and it is called the 'Yamir Star' because it was mined in the Yamir mining area of Africa.

It is said that the purity and beauty of this ring far surpasses that of the 'Star of Africa'. Therefore, it has aroused the covetousness of countless gem merchants. It's just that the gem disappeared on the day it was mined, and it was now embedded in the ring. Become a private collection.

Hearing Odero's unabashedly pointed finger at him, Philp frowned slightly. The two fat hands clasped together and said, "I apologize to everyone here. This thing. I am responsible. I didn't expect the Murong family, who is in charge of the Huaxia market, to be so radical and make things like this. I said a long time ago that the Murong family was not suitable when we were working with people, who strongly recommended it at that time? The old man of the Murong family lacked the two most precious things, calm and waiting, and failure was inevitable. ”

"When I suggested that cooperation with him be abolished, who was the one who denied it?" Odero deliberately said with a straight face, looking very angry, very dissatisfied with his foresight being misunderstood, but his heart was happy.

Although he is the second-in-command, the performance of the Chinese market in charge of Philpool has been very good in recent years, and he is a strong contender in next year's leadership election. Unexpectedly, such a change occurred at this time, and it seems that he is already a stable man.

Philp glanced at Odero and continued: "Yes, the Huaxia market has always been in charge of me, it is like my child, growing up under my care. And those who know their children are naturally the parents of their children. I originally thought that this partner was qualified, after all, it is the premier big family in China. Now, I apologize to you for my mistake. ”

"Although this time it failed, the Huaxia market is still one of the most important markets for us. Of course there I also found out that there was something we needed, and if it wasn't for that, how could I possibly let my child go? Although we are now defeated on the Chinese mainland, Hong Kong is almost under my control, and these Chinese love to fight, and they are easy to buy and do not fear the danger of exposure. After all, their oversight bodies are non-existent. We can even bribe the officials who oversee the system if we want to. ”

"According to the data, the Huaxia market was the largest contributor to the total benefits of the organization in the first three years. If it is abandoned, such a loss is unbearable for the organization. Of course, there is another important reason, and I believe that you also know the secret I have discovered, so I will not say more about it here. ”

"Of course." Odero interjected very rudely. In his opinion, he no longer had to respect this guy who had brought shame on the organization. "I think Mr. Li Jianzhou is more suitable for the position of the person in charge of the Huaxia market. Originally from China, he studied in the Toyo and held senior management positions at the Samsung Group in South Korea. If he can take this position, maybe the performance of the Chinese market will quadruple, and he is a Chinese person. There will be more opportunities to learn about that magical secret. ”

Li Jianzhou is a native of Odro. He naturally wanted to push his own people into this position.

As he spoke, one wore gold-rimmed glasses. The man with an ordinary face but a delicate face gently gestured to his forehead.

Philpu laughed secretly, this Odro is too anxious. Don't you know that this will only be a violation?

When the leader has not yet retired, how can he be willing to see that the heads of two regions are other people?

"Oh? Such? The old man sitting at the head thought for a moment and said, "That's not right. Mr. Li Jianzhou could indeed go to the Huaxia market to study first, but suddenly such a heavy workload was added - of course, I don't doubt his ability. Mr. Li Jianzhou is very good, and there are no mediocre talents in our organization. It's just that. Ability is not an equator with experience. ”

"The total collapse of the Chinese market is tantamount to starting from scratch. Although Mr. Philp has been in the past, he is still very familiar with the Chinese market. I think it's good for him to organize the reconstruction of the Huaxia market to atone for his crimes. ”

Philp stood up with a respectful face and said gratefully to the chief, "Rest assured, chief. I understand the importance of the Huaxia market to the organization, and this time, I will personally rush to Huaxia to establish a channel covering important regions such as China, the East, and South Korea. ”

Seeing that Odro wanted to open his mouth to object, Philip hurriedly said: "Mr. Li Jianzhou is a talent of the organization. Personally, I value it very much. If Mr. Li Jianzhou is willing to go to Huaxia Market to assist me in my work, I personally welcome it. ”

"Good. It was decided that we would do whatever it took to unearth that secret. The leader nodded.

The next day, Xu Feng, Lin Luoran, Chu Kexin, and Tang Xinyi all started to go to Yenching University.

Li Guangming was sitting in his office reading a newspaper. He heard a knock at the door and shouted, "Please come in." ”

Seeing that it was Xu Feng who came in, Li Guangming smiled and said, "Yo." The sun is coming out in the west today? Xu Feng, Young Master Xu, and Senior Class Leader Xu are back? Rare guest, actually appeared in my office. ”

Xu Feng smiled implicitly. said: "I'm sorry Mr. Li, there have been too many things recently. Busy. I'm here today because I want to talk to you about something. ”

Li Guangming took out a cigarette from the desk drawer, lit one himself, threw the cigarette to Xu Feng along with the lighter, and said, "I know you have something to talk to me about." As soon as I got back to school, I ran to my office, and you wouldn't have come to me if it was okay. Have a seat. You're welcome. ”

Xu Feng was also really unkind, and after taking the cigarette and lighting the lighter, he sat down on the chair opposite Li Guangming and said, "Teacher Li, I want to quit school." ”

cough - cough -

Li Guangming couldn't spit out the cigarette in his stomach, and he choked and coughed for a long time. He looked Xu Feng up and down with wide eyes, and said, "You can't be joking, right?" You've been at school and haven't been in class for half a day, so why do you want to drop out? ”

"No kidding." Xu Feng shook his head.

"Why?" Li Guangming asked in surprise. As far as he knows, it seems that very few students who enter Yenching University are willing to drop out. The name of this school is a golden signboard, and when you go out to find a job after graduation, the employer will look up to you.

"Some private matters." Xu Feng was reluctant to disclose.

Li Guangming took a puff of cigarette, and after brewing for a while, he said, "Xu Feng, I am personally very optimistic about you. I know that you are not an ordinary person, and the person who can save Tang Xinyi from the mercenaries cannot be an ordinary person. Even so, I don't want to see you drop out, after all, isn't there a saying that says? Live and learn. Of course, since this is your choice, I can't object to it. I can only persuade you from the position of a friend, and ask you to think about it for a few more days. This is a major event in life, and it can't be so hasty. ”

"Also, it's not something that I, as a little instructor, can decide. A department leader will need to report to the school leader before a decision can be made on whether or not to withdraw you. “

"It's okay Mr. Li, I'm not in a hurry. I've thought about it, and I'll bother you with this. Xu Feng said.

"Good. Whether you are a student or not, come back and sit when you are free. We're still friends, aren't we? Besides, don't you still have a celebrity in our class? The door of the Department of Psychology is always open for you," Li Guangming stood up and shook hands with Xu Feng.

Xu Feng was also a little reluctant, but he really didn't have time to continue to stay in school.

A new chapter is about to begin, and the second volume ends. (To be continued......)
