CHAPTER XLVII

47 Recently, the business of Hesheng Grain Store is good, and Zhou Dao estimates that he may account for half of the business in the county seat, and he plans to establish contact with the grain merchants in the state city as soon as possible, and if it goes well, it will be the main event.

Today, Zhou Dao made an appointment with Pan Ye to drink tea at home in the backyard of the grain store. Pan Ye has been transferred to the county seat as promised, and Lao Liang is still staying in Zhuxi Town, which can be regarded as taking Pan Ye's class. After all, it is the county seat, Pan Ye is still willing to be here, although his home is still in Zhuxi, but Zhou Dao has rented a small courtyard in the city for him, although it is a little off, but it is quiet, and Pan Ye's family has moved over.

At this time, the two were drinking tea and chatting, "We have known each other for two years, and I watched you build this family business, which is really fast." "It's just a little fight." Zhou Dao said with a smile, his face also showing relief. "Now Qiu Er and Huang Kui are following me, and I will bring them to know each other every two days, and I am under my control every day inside and outside the city, and I can find them when I am not there." "Thank you so much." "Needless to say these polite words, you and I are not a day or two." Pan Ye waved his hand.

As the two of them were talking, there were bursts of cheering from outside, which was neat and powerful and rhythmic, and everyone shouted in unison, which was very imposing. "Those who don't know think you're doing martial arts." Pan Ye teased. The men of this grain store are led by Feng Yi to practice knives and sticks on the dock every day, and sometimes Wu Neng leads the practice when Feng Yi is not there. As the two were talking, they saw Wu Disaster come in quickly, and whispered to Zhou Dao in front of Pan Ye: "Xu Shiyi is here, and he brought two people." "Well, go check it out." Zhou Dao got up and turned his head to look at Pan Ye, who nodded, "Let's go together." When I came to the door of the store, I saw Xu Shiyi standing with his back to the door of the store, looking at the guys who were practicing not far away.

"Brother Xu is so elegant." Xu Shiyi had known Zhou Dao before, and when he saw Zhou Dao come out and bowed, he also arched his hand casually, and when he saw Pan Ye who came out, he immediately swept away the gloom on his face, changed his smile and said, "Pan Ye is also here, I haven't seen him for a few days." "Well, I've been transferred to the county seat, and I won't see you when I look down in the future." Pan Ye also arched his hand, with a horse face. "What are you talking about standing at the door, Pan Ye is please, Xu Ye, you are also please." Zhou Dao said with a smile.

The three of them sat down again, and the two people led by Xu Shiyi were accompanied by Feng Yi in the wing room. "Actually, it's nothing, I just heard that you don't miss the grain business." Xu Shiyi looked at the furnishings in the room and said casually. "It's just opened, and I can't say it yet." Xu Shiyi smiled when he heard this, and said, "In addition, this time I came here to settle the accounts of the previous days." "

"The accounts of the other day? What's the account? Zhou Dao smiled on his face, but the muscles of his whole body were tense. The account of the mill in Zhuxi Town, should Zhou Gongzi forget, our eighteen arhats still have thirty percent of shares in the mill? Hearing this, Zhou Dao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "I talked to Bai Ye about sharing at the beginning, and said that he would keep me safe, and then divide him into thirty." But it's only been a few months, and he's gone, so what can he do to keep me safe? I didn't do anything and still wanted to get money, there is such a good thing? Shouldn't this be? If you feel that I am not right, let him reason with me face to face. ”

That's not what I said. Aren't you and the mill all right now? Isn't this our eighteen Arhats protecting you, and you want to cross the river and tear down the bridge? If you have a kind, you can try it. Xu Shiyi stared at Zhou Dao coldly. What do you mean by that? Want to threaten me? Threaten me in front of Pan Ye? I'm not going to be reasonable. Zhou Dao turned his head and stared at Xu Shiyi with inquiring eyes, not evading. At this time, Pan Ye spoke, "Xu Shiyi, even Bai Shoucheng is here, and he can't help but look at my face." What do you want to do? Want to kill him? He pointed his finger at Zhou Dao, "Do it, don't you know how to fly knives?" You fly one and try it, he doesn't know kung fu, just when I'm not there, you try it. "

The room was quiet, Zhou Dao clutched the handle of the knife at his waist, and his palms were full of sweat. Xu Shiyi sat silently in the chair for a while, he only stared at Pan Ye at this time, recalling what he said, and did not look at Zhou Dao on the side. Pan Ye also looked at Xu Shiyi, his face full of calmness.

There was silence, only silence for a while, and then there were bursts of shouting and cheering outside the courtyard to break the awkward silence. "Cough", Zhou Dao cleared his throat and said, "Master Xu, if you want to talk about the grinding room, you can only talk about it with Bai Ye, I want to take the liberty of asking, you come to talk about the grinding room, are you talking on behalf of Bai Ye or on behalf of the Eighteen Arhats?" Let me ask where are the eighteen Arhats now? How many Arhats are left? Are you the boss? As if he remembered something, Zhou Dao added, "Representation is the meaning of substitution, indicating that you are Bai Ye or Eighteen Arhats, and Eighteen Arhats are your meaning, and it is up to you to decide." Xu Shiyi listened, and tapped lightly on the table with his fingers, which was Bai Ye's habitual action. Zhou Dao was afraid that he would suddenly explode, and his toes were clenched, but he thought that if he didn't take advantage of Pan Ye here to make his words clear today, it would be even more troublesome. He laid down his heart and stared at Xu Shiyi.

Xu Shiyi nodded lightly and said, "I understand what Zhou Gongzi meant, then there will be a period later." As he spoke, he got up and arched his hand at Pan Ye. Xu Ye, there is a word for gift" Xu Shiyi stood still and turned to look at Zhou Dao. "Bai Ye talked to me about the mill because he is the boss of the Eighteen Arhats, and when the Eighteen Arhats are really surnamed Xu, and there are many brothers with them, I welcome Xu Ye to discuss this matter at any time. The really powerful person is someone else who takes the initiative to ask for him, and he doesn't need to ask for it again and again. After saying that, Zhou Dao also got up and gave his hand, Xu Shi nodded slightly, turned around and left without saying anything.

Pan Ye sat all the time, he turned his head sideways and said to Zhou Dao, "This kid is a little yin, you have to guard against it." "
