() Yanjing City, Donghe Antique Street in an elegant teahouse, the quaint "Mountains and Flowing Water" guzheng music smoothly floating, hanging on the wall a large folding fan, the fan surface with small letters neatly written Han Fu - "Husband King Qiao Chisong, call out the past, Xi is new." The sky is corrected, and the qi is closed. jīng Shen Zhou Qia, 鬲塞circulatory ......" This is Huan Tan on the order of Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty to create the "Immortal Fu", the content of the Han Fu seems to be empty, but the content is also interesting, it describes the mystery of the immortals, the rhetoric is gorgeous, the spirit is long, full of longing and fantasy for immortality.

Throughout the ages, countless people have longed for immortality, knowing that the destiny of heaven cannot be violated, but they are still trying to yearn for the eternity of life. The reason why people are afraid of death is not that there is really a difference between hell and heaven behind death, but because of the fear of the unknown. The atmosphere of the teahouse undoubtedly caters to the inner hopes of many people, who want to be infinitely close to the mystery of immortality and be a happy fairy.

This teahouse is the invisible asset of the Xie family in Tonghe, few people know about it, and it is only open to a very small number of people, just like the Beijing office in many places, it exists to contact contacts and obtain certain political resources.

Since the establishment of this teahouse six years ago, the development of the Xie family in Tonghe has not only successfully controlled the Tonghe Mining Group, but also successfully jumped out of the Tonghe River and became a deputy ministerial-level official of the central enterprise, with nearly 100 billion national assets in his hands, and has gained a firm foothold in Yanjing City, where the hidden dragon and crouching tiger.

The woman in the cheongsam made the tea elegantly filled the teacup, then took the teacup with a clip and placed it in front of Xie Dongcheng and Xie Zhende. Xie Dongcheng made a gesture of invitation, Xie Zhende nodded, took a sip of tea, sighed deeply, and said, "Dongcheng, why doesn't your father want to see me?" ”

Xie Dongcheng glanced at the tea lady beside him, and said lightly: "It's not that my dad doesn't want to see you, but he can't see you, you should know better than anyone else, our Xie family is in a special situation now." Second uncle, my father will give you a word, go back to the Party School of the Municipal Party Committee to study your duty, and if you have the opportunity, I will transfer you to zhōngyāng. ”

The brilliance of Xie Zhende's eyes suddenly dimmed, and he said, "Is the Tonghe Xie family really going to end?" Your matter, I also heard, real estate and auction companies have been hit, and the losses are not small? ”、

Xie Zhende was very disappointed, he didn't expect his eldest brother's reaction to be so cold, he originally came to Yanjing to see Xie Zhentian, hoping that he would help, after knowing that the secretary of the Discipline Inspection Committee had become a boiled duck and flew away, he still had a trace of luck in his heart, or his eldest brother Xie Zhentian could come back to life and help himself fight for it again through his own strength, after all, the position of the secretary of the Discipline Inspection Committee was too tempting.

But he didn't expect that the truth was much more cruel than he imagined, and Xie Zhentian didn't even want to see him.

Is it just to avoid suspicion? Xie Zhende smiled bitterly.

Xie Dongcheng shook his head and sighed: "Second uncle, a series of things have happened in the recent past period of time, which is actually a good thing for the Xie family. ”

In Xie Zhende's impression, Xie Dongcheng has always been an excited and reckless person, but the feeling of communication between the two today made him feel a little weird, and Xie Dongcheng seemed to be much more mature.

Xie Zhende was surprised: "How can this be a good thing? Recently, the municipal party committee has frequently suppressed the Xie family, and our surname Xie will soon become a lost dog. Boss, he won't be an official in Yanjing, so he forgot where his roots are? Xie Zhende still knows his nephew's situation very well, whether it is an auction company or a real estate company, the situation is very bad.

Xie Dongcheng has been hiding his right hand in his pocket, he smiled slightly, stretched out his hand, and then took off the glove, revealing half of the fingers, and said coldly: "Fortunately, what I lost was only a finger, not my head." ”

Xie Zhende's face showed surprise, and he said in surprise and anger: "What's going on? ”

Xie Dongcheng smiled sadly, glanced back at the tea lady, and saw that there was pity in her eyes, and her mood was even lowered, and said: "Second uncle, at this time and that time, there are talented people in the country, and each has led the way for hundreds of years. The era of the Xie family's scenery has passed, and although the things left in Tonghe still look dazzling, after all, the risk is too great, and if you still reluctantly fight for it, you will fall deeper and deeper. ”

Xie Zhende seemed to understand what Xie Dongcheng meant, and asked incredulously, "You mean, you don't want anything?" ”

Xie Dongcheng nodded, drank all the tea in the cup, and said solemnly: "Yes, when it's time to let go, you have to let go, otherwise it won't be a finger." After speaking, he stood up, smiled, and said: "Second uncle, you rarely come to Yanjing, this time you will stay for a while, anyway, the party school of the municipal party committee is not in a hurry, it is not bad to take a few days off and relax completely." ”

Xie Zhende's eyes were lowered and he did not answer. He didn't expect that the collapse of the Xie family would be so fast, just a few years ago, when Wang Zhengqi talked freely about the future of Tonghe with himself, he was still full of confidence, thinking that the Xie family would enter a new era, and this is an era written by himself, he didn't expect that everything was just a castle in the air, and now he has become a jobless vagrant waiting for appointment in the Party School of the Municipal Party Committee.

After separating from Xie Zhende, Xie Dongcheng turned around and entered another box, where a beautiful blonde sat opposite, and instead of tea, a cup of coffee was placed in front of her.

The girl was wearing a silver gray sè blazer, which was a white sè low-necked undershirt, and under the beautiful platinum clavicle chain, there were peaks that protruded outward, the texture of the clothes was soft and elastic, and the tight rice sè slacks wrapped her plump buttocks and slender calves tightly.

The girl's emerald eyes roamed over Xie Dongcheng's face, and she asked in Chinese that was not very standard, but very clear: "Mr. Dongcheng, you seem to be in a very low mood." ”

Xie Dongcheng nodded, took a bottle of foreign wine and a glass from the cabinet, filled a glass, took a sip greedily, and smiled a little crazily: "Dear Ms. Celine, otherwise, what should I do, should I laugh?" ”

Celine slowly stirred the coffee with a spoon and said indifferently: "You can take revenge!" ”

Xie Dongcheng suddenly calmed down, and he said in surprise: "Revenge? You said it simply, my father has already said that the opponent this time is very strong, if he is willing, he can make the Xie family fall from the peak to the bottom in an instant without much effort. ”

Celine shook her slender and white fingers, her eyes fell on the coffee, and said: "There are many ways to take revenge, and there are many ways to make people not know who their opponent is at all...... Thomas and I are both experts in this regard...... It's up to you to bet or not......"

Xie Dongcheng was silent for a moment, regained his senses, and said in a low voice: "If you can really reinvigorate the Xie family's Jedi, I am willing to pay any chips." ”

Celine smiled faintly, took out a blank piece of paper from her purse, pushed it to Xie Dongcheng's side, and said, "Within a month, according to the requirements on the catalog, collect everything, and then send it out of the country......"

Xie Dongcheng stared at the name on the directory and swept it carefully, the stump hand kept shaking, he looked at Celine incredulously, and said, "So many materials? Which country are you going to sell to this time? ”

Celine put her finger to her mouth and gently "shh......h

Xie Dongcheng saw Celine leaving the box with a very seductive body, and the coffee cup on the tea table was printed with red lip prints, and he immediately regretted it, because he realized that he was making a deal with another demon in order to defeat that powerful enemy.

……

In the mayor's office, Wang Zhengqi smoked cigarettes one after another, and his smoky face looked a little hideous. An Mingyuan coughed twice, breaking the unsettling silence, and said in a low voice: "Fourth master, what did the secretary of the country say?" Who will be the new squad leader of this copper river? ”

Wang Zhengqi extinguished the cigarette butt in the ashtray and said unhappily: "Now the provincial party committee has two opinions, some people think that Zhao Jiwen is suitable to come to Tonghe, and the other part recommends Qiu Weihong to come to Tonghe. ”

An Mingyuan's face darkened, and said: "As far as I know, Tang Tianyu worked under Qiu Weihong at the beginning, although the relationship between the two was not very good at that time, but after Secretary Mei resigned, Qiu Weihong was matched by Tang Tianyu and introduced to Li Yingwu. ”

Wang Zhengqi waved his hand and said: "This side of the Tonghe River is gradually becoming clear, and we must not let Qiu Weihong come over to stir up the situation, I have no choice but to call the old man." ”

An Mingyuan didn't expect Wang Zhengqi to attach so much importance to it, for so many years, in his impression, there were only a few times when Wang Zhengqi would ask for help from the old man. An Mingyuan knows Wang Zhengqi very well, and the Standing Committee that has just passed has dealt a great blow to Wang Zhengqi, and this is probably the only time that Wang Zhengqi has failed for so many years as an official.

An Mingyuan was suddenly a little uneasy, he didn't know why the urge to stop Wang Zhengqi rose in his heart, but he still didn't have the courage after all.

Wang Zhengqi patted An Mingyuan on the shoulder, An Mingyuan knew that Wang Zhengqi was sending off guests, so he nodded and walked out of the office. Subsequently, Wang Zhengqi dialed the old man's phone, and the old man listened to Wang Zhengqi's explanation over there, and said lightly: "It is excellent to have a sense of competition, but it seems very stupid to put a time bomb by your side." ”

Wang Zhengqi was slightly stunned, and suddenly realized that nothing could be hidden from the old man's ears and eyes, he thought that the captive canary in the nightclub was very well hidden, but it was just his own assumption, and since he asked for something, he would inevitably lose something, he said calmly: "She handed it over to you......"

The old man said leisurely: "Don't worry, she has the seed of my old Wang family in her belly, and I won't do anything to her...... I'll arrange for her, and I'll only make her safer...... It's you, don't be compared to that kid from the Tang family......"
