Chapter XVIII. Discussion
Wei Ziheng smiled slightly awkwardly on the side: "This girl seems to have ulterior motives for you." Wouldn't it be beautiful if you agreed to this beautiful thing? ”
Sun Qi turned his head and glared at Wei Ziheng viciously: "What you said lightly, a man is eighteen, he is a good age to make contributions and become famous thousands of miles away, how can it be used for children's affection?" ”
Wei Ziheng, after thinking for a while, said in a more playful tone: "You don't know anything about this!" Meritorious service and love and marriage are two complementary things. If you can marry a good wife and mother, if you want to go to the rivers and lakes in the future, wouldn't you have no worries? ”
"What are you kidding?" Sun Qi, thinking of the woman's rude actions just now, was suddenly a little afraid, he closed the door gently, and then continued to sit cross-legged on the bed, took a deep breath and said, "Don't disturb me." ”
Wei Ziheng smiled slightly, and didn't say more, the two brothers, who were like siblings, were not abusing each other: "Okay, you can recuperate." I'll also rest for a while. ”
Wu Meng, who was originally a little noisy, began to quiet down, and it seemed that everything was back on track, except for two small houses that collapsed due to fire, the most seriously damaged was the council room. This was originally the most imposing building in the Ukrainian League, but now it has been reduced to ruins.
Ji Jianyong sat on the chair, looking at the cup of tea in front of him, his eyes were a little wooden: "What do you think?" ”
Tahoe's face was not very good, and it seemed that the issue just discussed made the atmosphere a little tense: "I don't know, I said that it doesn't work like this, it doesn't work like that, you can discuss it yourself!" ”
Ertian, leaning against the wall and looking at Taihe, who was a little angry, shook his head and said, "How do you discuss your temper?" I understand that you are thinking about Wu Meng. But have you ever thought that if you didn't, your temper would be very unpopular. ”
Taihe, hearing this, became more and more annoyed, he pointed to Ertian's nose and scolded: "I didn't mean anything about you, although I usually look at your gentle and elegant appearance, I thought you were a scholar, I see that you are not very knowledgeable, and you are confused in doing things." ”
Ertian exhaled heavily, leaned his face to the side, looked at the wall to the side and stopped talking.
Ji Jianyong, at this time, hurriedly persuaded in the middle: "Can you two stop arguing at this time?" When was this? Tahoe, can't you be a little smaller? While I admit that some of the things you said are true, it's hard for people to accept your approach. ”
"It's not a question of acceptance or not, it's a very serious question, and it's about life and death in the future." Tahoe, the more he talked, the more angry he became: "If we don't find out this traitor for me earlier, otherwise I won't be able to sleep well every night." ”
Ji Jianyong shook his head slightly, sighed, and said, "Now it's just the three of us." You casually say, who do you think is the most likely traitor? ”
Ertian, a person next to him, silently analyzed the problem, and said to himself: "The people who know the treasure are in our Wu League, and there are actually quite a few. But I'm afraid there aren't many people who know the location. If there is a ghost, it must be our group of high-level personnel. It is impossible for those in charge to know, and the greatest possibility is in that group of elders. ”
"What about you?" Ji Jianyong sat aside and listened carefully.
Ertian, pestle in place, thought for a while: "The question I was thinking about before was whether the Black Tiger Gang would kill that inner ghost in the chaos?" ”
"That's what you think." Taihe, his eyes widened, and he looked at Ertian deadly, revealing a suspicion in his eyes.
Ertian, instead of looking directly at Tahoe, said: "Their target this time is obvious, it is that batch of treasures. They have been planning for so long, and they did not hesitate to send an inner ghost to break into the ranks of our elders, I think it makes perfect sense. The amount of this treasure is still huge. If the Black Tiger Gang is used properly, his strength will expand indefinitely. With the Black Tiger Gang's perennial trajectory, such a goal is also in line with them. ”
Ji Jianyong looked at it for a while, and said for a while: "According to your meaning, this inner ghost may have left in the previous chaos, or killed the same him, or it is possible that he will still stay in our Wu League." ”
Ertian, shaking his head, said, "So after all, I'm still not sure if he exists?" ”
Tahoe became more and more angry: "It's just nonsense, you two have gone through some ups and downs, and the judgment of these things is still suspicious?" Don't even think about it, this inner ghost still exists among us, and I can guarantee that this operation of the Black Tiger Gang is just the beginning. Don't forget what country the Black Tiger Gang is from? ”
"Of course I do." Ji Jianyong, the more he said, the more uneasy he became: "The reason why Wu Meng chose this kind of place at the beginning was to consider that if there was a large army besieging outside, it would be completely possible to rely on the mountains and rivers here. What we fear is organized, premeditated, and collective attacks like the Black Tigers. ”
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door, and a person similar to a guard reported: "Alliance leader, the person you invited has arrived." ”
"Come in, please." Ji Jianyong hurriedly said.
Soon the door opened, and a middle-aged man walked in, he clasped his hands into fists and made a ceremony of the former Wu Kingdom: "In Xia Sun Gu, I have seen the lord of the Wu League." ”
Ji Jianyong made a welcoming ceremony and said, "Sir, please come in." No need to be polite here. ”
Sun Gu said with a somewhat ugly face: "I didn't expect such a thing to happen to Wu Meng today, if I hadn't lived in Gusu City for a long time, if I hadn't been under you, I'm afraid I wouldn't know when I would get this news." ”
Ji Jianyong looked at Sun Gu, who was about the same age as him, with an excited face, and said, "Alas, this time Wu Meng really suffered a big disaster. ”
"Oh, what do you mean by that? I've heard that you didn't suffer many casualties, except for the one that collapsed, but the rest was fine. "Sun Gu, I have already noticed that the atmosphere of the three Wu League's leaders in this small room is a little not harmonious.
Ji Jianyong couldn't help but sigh, waved his sleeves, and turned around: "Then the treasure of the Wu League was stolen." ”
"Ah, what!"
Then Ji Jianyong told Sun Gu what happened this morning, his tone was heavy, his face was embarrassed, and there was some infarction between his words.
Ertian also said on the side: "This situation is not what we want to see. Losing that batch of treasures, I don't know how long Wu Meng can hold out. ”
Sun Gu, after listening to Ji Jianyong's narration, suddenly filled his chest with anger, he stretched out his fist and slammed it on the table: "How can this be true, this group of despicable villains. ”
Ji Jianyong also sighed helplessly: "Now there is no other way but to turn to you for help." Not many people know about the theft of the treasure now, and we blocked the news to calm the hearts of those people. ”
Sun Gu said with a lofty voice: "Don't worry, alliance leader, I just started doing business before, if it weren't for your help, maybe I wouldn't be the number one businessman in Gusu City now." Now that Wu Meng is in trouble, I should help. Ladies and gentlemen, if there is a need, just ask. ”
Ertian, who is in charge of the internal affairs of the Wu League, including personnel transfers and financial issues, said in detail: "There are more than 4,000 people living here for a long time. Except for most of the people in the mountain village, many of the small buildings in this mountain range are inhabited by our people. Overall, it's more scattered. The cost of maintaining the lives of this group of people is not small.
Originally, our Wu League had a business in Gusu City, but it could only maintain the survival of some people. In a piece like our mountain villa, if you want to maintain a normal life, I am afraid that you will need two thousand taels of silver per day. ”
"Two thousand taels of silver." Sun Gu, obviously, was frightened by this amount, although he knew that this was not less than money, but he still resolutely said: "Don't worry, I can still take out two thousand taels of silver." With my current financial resources, there is no problem supporting you for more than ten days. Leave it to me. As for I'll figure it out after that. ”
Tahoe has been sitting aside, his face is stiff, and when he saw Sun Gu, he still lowered his posture and said: "Then thank you Mr. Sun Gu, of course, we are also thinking of a way, so many people, daily livelihood, we originally had some other ways to be self-sufficient." That batch of treasures was originally used for unforeseen needs, and of course losing those money, at least Wu Meng would not be able to continue to develop upward for a long time. ”
Sun Gu sighed silently: "This situation is also something I don't want to see." I was originally blessed by you, and I should have helped, oh yes, I heard that my nephew, Sun Qi, is also here with your Wu League. ”
Ji Jianyong hesitated for a moment, and then said slowly: "That's true, his coming to Wumeng was an accident, and it wasn't intentional by a few of us. ”
Seeing the expression on Sun Gu's face, he seemed to be worried about this matter, and he said, "It's best not to let his father know, otherwise I'm afraid I'll turn against you." ”
Tahoe, who has always been not afraid of heaven and earth, and was furious, was also speechless after hearing these words, Sun Chi, this name includes his appearance and his deeds, and he recalled it in Tahoe's mind for a long time.
Ertian was also silent on the side, as if he was afraid, but it didn't seem to matter, although his expression was the same as usual, his face was like ashes, but this time his calm expression was a little more emotionally fluctuating.
Ji Jianyong took Sun Gu's words head-on: "This is also a thing of the past, Wu Meng did treat Mr. Sun Chi badly, and I also feel very guilty." But Wu Meng at that time did not agree with Mr. Sun Chi's opinion. I can't wait, if I was willing to stand up firmly to support Mr. Sun Chi at that time, maybe Wu Meng would not have the situation of decline like today. ”
"Alas......" Taihe actually became melancholy on the side, looking at his expression as if he was caught in the memories of those years.
Sun Gu saw everyone's expressions and realized that his words might be a little serious: "Everyone, I have said a lot, Mr. Ertian, we can discuss some matters related to Wu Meng." Those who can help will not be stingy. As for the matter of Sun Qi, I won't ask anymore, if you want to recruit him, it doesn't hurt, I believe Sun Chi should have already let go. After all, you are the current supervisor of the Wu League, not the group of mindless juniors back then.
If you have ideas, I can go to the Qionglong Mountain for you to visit Sun Chi and ask him to come out of the mountain, and I wish you all a helping hand. ”
These last words suddenly brightened the eyes of the three people present.
Taihe immediately stood up, he couldn't control his emotions, and said, "This is true! ”
