Chapter 33: The Orb

Meng Siyuan's clothes are very similar to the previous Xiongye Song, and he is also dressed in a Western style, and even the braid on his head is a wig braid he bought. At that time, most of the people dressed in Jinmen had a foreign background, and Meng Siyuan was said to be incompatible with his family after returning from studying abroad, so when he was kicked out of the house, he had no regrets.

Behind him were two men who looked like men, carrying a few gifts in their hands, and when they entered the courtyard, and saw the broken bed, he called a fellow to give a few words, and the fellow went away. He nodded to Su Hanzhi again, and then lowered his head and walked into the low room.

Zhao Guanhou didn't get up, and when he saw him come in, he just hugged his fists, "Meng Dongjia?" I beg your pardon, I won't give you a salute if my legs and feet are inconvenient. The house is simple, the poor family, there is nothing, and you Jiuji Meng family can not be compared, Meng Dong's family is expensive, and the hospitality is not good, if you are not dirty, find a place to sit by yourself. ”

Meng Siyuan smiled, casually put his top hat on the table, and then sat on the chair generously. "It doesn't matter, Meng is not a gentleman who is not diligent and does not distinguish between grains and grains, when Meng Ji Silk Village was in its infancy, I followed the workers to load and unload the goods, rain or shine, I am not secret, I have been a welcomer, I have also stood at the counter, and several food stalls over there in Beidaguan are also very familiar. In order to mingle with the workers, I invited them to eat together, which is the pot guy Dazhai of your small shoe shop, and I also ate noodles with everyone there. ”

Speaking of the pot guy, his expression seemed to have changed a little, "I'm really sorry, your two families have always been a good cooperative relationship." Meng has always been supportive of public welfare, and as long as his ability allows, he will definitely help. It's just that to tell the truth, Meng Ji is now under a lot of financial pressure, and a large amount of money is pressed on the construction of the yarn factory, so I am afraid that it will be difficult to help much in the burial of the nameless corpse in Jinmen. However, Meng is willing to introduce you to some colleagues who also support public welfare, and Brother Zhao can go and contact them, maybe they will continue to help the Bone Covering Society. ”

He was a businessman and wasn't much afraid of gangsters, but he didn't want to really offend these people when it wasn't a matter of principle. This character is successful or insufficient, and there are more than failures, just by publicizing it in the streets and alleys, the Jiuji Meng family's financial resources are exhausted, and they can't even afford the money of the Bone Club, and the fluctuations caused in the shopping mall are far more than the sponsorship he paid. Moreover, the shop could not be moved, and the thugs had the means to make it impossible for his silk farm and even the yarn mill to operate normally.

I brought a gift today, not really afraid of the gangsters, but I just hope that everyone can look at this problem rationally and not really make the problem out of control. But he was obviously also cold, and although he said a lot of polite words, he still said that he would not continue to fund the Bone Burial Society. The so-called introduction and the like are just kind words, as long as the brain is not broken, you know that his promise is unreliable.

Zhao Guanhou smiled, "Meng Dongjia, you also think that our bones will be too small." To tell you the truth, I swore to my brother, it was Cao Zhongkun, the leader of the new army, and he said a word in the local area, and it was not impossible to find a few gentry to raise funds. Although we are gangsters, we are not beggars who ask for a small amount of money, and we do not ask for alms with our palms up. The reason why I found Meng Dongjia is because I heard that the owner has a little trouble. The two of us have been in a relationship for many years, and the men of our small shoe shop can't watch Meng Dong's family being bullied. What Li Si does is his business, and now that I am the owner of the village, I will take care of this matter. If Meng Dongjia believes me, tell me what you lost and what kind of thing it is. If you can't believe it, then I won't force it, just invite you to drink tea and chat. ”

Meng Siyuan originally came over, but he was sleek and shrewd as a businessman, and he didn't want to offend a gangster leader casually, after all, porcelain can not be hated without touching bricks. Unexpectedly, he really wanted to come out for himself to ask for treasure, but it made him fall into a deep thought.

From the bottom of his heart, he doesn't trust the gangsters, if one thing can't even be solved by the government, what is the ability of the gangsters to solve it. But on the other hand, he has basically thought of all the methods he can think of now. With that pawn ticket, you can't win a lawsuit, even if you invite the best knives and pens in Jinmen, this lawsuit will be won or lost.

There are clay knives and pens called literary gangsters in Jinmen, all of whom can turn black and white upside down and bring the dead back to life, and they are not necessarily inferior to their Taixi counterparts. However, in this matter, even the most famous literary gangsters can only advise him: private.

According to the ideas of those literary gangsters, they can only ask the principal of the Pang family to come out, have a good talk between the two, negotiate a price, and redeem the treasure back. Meng Siyuan had already taken out more than 100,000 oceans and only redeemed a fake, but at this time, he didn't want to use money to buy it. Zhao Guanhou's statement at this time was like pushing a broken wooden board to a drowning person, whether it can really save a life or not, at least hope is good.

His disappointment in the small shoe shop is that he usually supplies a sum of money, but when it comes to employing people, he can't even get an attitude. At this time, seeing that Zhao Guanhou was so brave in doing things, he felt a little unbearable, and reminded:

"Zhao Zhuangshi, I have heard your name mentioned, and you are indeed a good man with iron bones. But the Pang family is not easy to deal with, they are powerful and ruthless, Meng does not want anyone to be hurt for the sake of the Meng family. No matter how valuable the treasure is, it is still dead after all, and compared with human life, dead things are never as important as human life. ”

"Meng Dongjia, Zhao is going to pick a thumbs up for you. If you can say that people are expensive and things are cheap, it is not surprising that you can have today's achievements. But Zhao is not talented, since he has promised to solve this matter for you, he is not afraid that his Pang family is rich and powerful, and I don't care if he has any means. As long as Meng Dong's family believes in me, your treasure will just fall on me. ”

As soon as Li Si heard Meng Siyuan mention Yuanfengdang, he was frightened and resigned, and his attitude towards Zhao Guanhou was like a cloud, which made Meng Siyuan's heart, which was already gradually cooling, and regained a glimmer of hope.

"Zhuangman, I don't want to hide it, I don't want to disclose this matter to the outside world, after all, it is about the reputation of the Meng family, and I hope that the fewer people know about it, the better. But since the strong man already knows, then I have no choice but to tell the truth. That thing is a family heirloom handed down from my ancestors, a five-hole inch bead. This treasure is an heirloom in my family and a memento left to me by my father. My mother told me that even if the family was bankrupt, it was not allowed to touch its thoughts. Meng Mou was unscrupulous, in order to have a temporary capital turnover, he wanted to adjust his position, but he didn't expect to meet an unscrupulous pawnshop......"

His five-hole inch beads are one inch in diameter, and the light can be placed in three inches. The so-called pearl, one to be round, the second to be big, there are seven points in the world, eight points are treasures, the diameter of one inch of pearls, it is not easy to find, just three inches, it is even more rare.

And the five holes on it, the legend is to avoid the five elements, although the legend is far greater than the reality, but after all, it adds a bit of mystery to it, and it becomes more and more precious. In the land of Jinmen, there are some people who know that the Meng family has this jewel, and there are also big businessmen or officials who want to buy it, but they are all rejected by Meng Siyuan.

This time, I just wanted to turn around in the pawnshop, so I redeemed it, and I wanted to redeem the beads in my hand, although it was also an inch in diameter, and there were five holes on it. But the beads were dull, and the five holes were also randomly chiseled, which were not the same thing as his original beads.

However, Meng Siyuandian went in person at that time, due to his lack of pawn experience, only "five holes and one inch bead" were written on the ticket, and other descriptions were not recorded.

After suffering such a big loss, Meng Siyuan also thought about theorizing with the other party, and the presentation was written, but when he got it to the yamen, he was refuted by the county order. The physical evidence is seriously unfavorable to the Meng family, and whoever comes will not make a judgment in favor of Meng Siyuan.

"After the accident, Meng also thought about asking Leader Li for help, but he told me very clearly that the small shoe shop is just a small pot guy, even if he fights for all people's lives, he can't fight the Pang family behind Yuanfengdang. Besides, Yuan Daotai is now training troops in a small station, and Yu Jinmen specializes in controlling the people in the pot gang, if he starts beating up at this time, the end can only be pressed down by the new army's bullets and die in vain. Zhao Zhuangshi has this intention, Meng is very grateful, but you are still young, and you are like a beautiful flower, so you shouldn't take such a big risk. Regarding this bead, Meng Mou found another way. ”

Zhao Guanhou nodded: "Is it a five-hole bead?" I haven't seen this thing, so it must be a very precious treasure, so it's no wonder that the Pang family is tempted. If this matter is a lawsuit, Meng Dongjia really has little chance of winning, because the evidence is not in your hands. can talk about evidence, that is the matter of the yamen, and what the pot guy is talking about is a truth, not evidence. You have raised us for so many years, and you have invested so much money in the bone club, we have to help you out, this is the truth, this is right and wrong. Meng Dongjia rest assured, I will help you end this matter as soon as possible and ensure that the treasure bead will be returned to Zhao completely. ”

He pointed to his leg, "My leg has to be raised for more than half a month, Meng Ye, forgive me, the beads are not left or right today, and there is not much difference between being in the other party's hands for a few days and being in the other party's hands for half a month." When my legs are able to walk, I will definitely settle accounts with the other party. ”

Meng Siyuan attaches great importance to family heirlooms, but as a businessman, he also knows the importance of covering up his intentions in negotiations. If the opponent easily sees through the reality, he will lose the next thing. Therefore, he didn't show too much excitement about Zhao Guanhou's words, but thought about it and asked:

"Zhao Zhuangshi, if the treasure bead can really be retrieved for Siyuan, you are Siyuan's benefactor, and in the future, the donation of the small shoe shop will be doubled by my Meng family."

"Meng Dongjia, you are far away, we will help you, not for money, just for friendship, if you only mention money, then we don't care about this matter. I want you as a friend, not the silver. No matter how much silver there is, there will always be a time when it will be spent, and only the righteousness of friends can last forever. ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Guanhou patted his thigh with his hand and hummed an Albiang song "How can you forget your old friends, can you not miss ...... in your heart"
