Before Uesugi Kiyoshi could explain, he saw Li Fujiao smiling and shaking his head.

"I'm kidding, you're not going to take it seriously, are you?"

"Look at how nervous you look, you look for a girlfriend, and I can't care about it, can I?"

"What's more... You are very indecisive in some ways~"

She finally muttered in a low voice, didn't give Uesugi Kiyoshi a chance to speak, smiled slightly, and bowed to Tobun Maki, Kamisi, and Kudo Yuichi, who had been silently following behind the two of them, and Kudo Yuichi, who had a smile on his aunt's face, and spoke in skillful Japanese.

"I already know the intention of several of them, my father is inside, I think your time is precious, please."

After speaking, in Dongwen Zhenxi's whispered and polite thanks, Li Fuyao pushed open the wooden door of the small courtyard and led a few mermaids in.

The yard is not big, not too small, and it is a very retro corridor structure.

Under the eaves, there is a high table and two stone benches, two figures are sitting idlely, one is holding a small wine jug, while eating the dishes on the table, from time to time to take a sip of wine in the jug, quite comfortable, a group of leisurely.

It's just over eight o'clock in the morning, so it's not too much to have a morning tea.

However, it is really uncommon for a good man to drink early in the morning.

The smile on Li Fuyao's face disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, and was replaced by frost on his face.

She strode heavily, swaying her oil-paper umbrella, and walked up to the two figures, speaking in a voice that was so calm that it was terrifying.

"My father, I have told you at least twenty times, not to drink alcohol in the morning - it is not good for your stomach, if you want to live a few more years, you might as well listen to me, after all, I am your own daughter, and it should not hurt you!"

At the small table, sitting on the right is the third uncle who went to Li Fuyao's small courtyard early in the morning to forage for food.

On the left, there is a middle-aged man who looks to be only about forty years old - he is much older than he seems.

He was wearing a somewhat loose ink-colored Tang suit, with his legs crossed, a pair of black-soled cloth shoes on his feet, his face had been carved out of some traces by the wind and frost of the years, but he did not look old, his facial features were very angular, some deep, and it was not difficult to see that when he was young, he was probably a famous handsome young man.

Seeing Li Fuyao Xingshi coming over, the legendary "Tai Sui Ye" stiffened, and then reacted very quickly to slap the wine jug on the table, pointing at the nose of the third uncle opposite and spraying.

"The third! Look! I said don't drink, don't drink, you have to listen! ”

"My family has been telling me thousands of times, why did I listen to your nonsense and break it in the morning!"

"I said I wanted to quit drinking!"

"Can't you teach me a little good?!"

This remark can be said to be quite unreasonable.

The third uncle on the opposite side had a light face, and grinned at Li Fuyao with bared teeth, full of the meaning of broken jars, spread his hands, and took another sip of wine without concealing it.

"Hey, old lady sui, you save it, what kind of girl are you, you don't count it in your heart? Just a few words of nonsense, who has been deceived? ”

was dismantled by a drinking friend without hesitation, Li Taisui's face did not change, he glared at the third uncle fiercely, and then looked at his daughter with a flattering gaze.

"Oh, Fuyao, I don't have a few drinks on this rainy day, I always feel uncomfortable, just this once, just this once!"

Li Fuyao took a deep breath, held his forehead, was silent for a moment, gave up continuing to dwell on this matter, and said coldly: "For the sake of the guests, forget about today's matter." ”

"The eldest lady of the Dongwen Club is visiting, you are serious, don't let people see jokes."

After speaking, Li Fuyao retreated behind his father.

Li Taisui snorted, and his somewhat drunken and hazy faces became a little more serious, and he glanced at a few people in the courtyard.

Seeing that this opportunity was good, Maki Tobun stepped forward, opened his mouth in a very polite tone, and introduced himself impeccably.

"Uncle Tai Sui, I came this time to ask for something."

She ended with a straightforward statement.

Dongwen Zhenxi has met this Tai Sui Ye a few times with his father, although he is not familiar with it, but it is not too much to call him uncle.

However, when I heard these words, Sugi Qing's brows furrowed.

It's not a good thing to put your posture too low.

"Dong Wenjue's daughter of that old thing?"

Li Taisui rubbed the wine jug in his hand and looked at Dongwen Zhenxi with humble eyes.

"Hey, I don't look like it, that old man with a bad stomach can give birth to a good daughter like you?"

Uesugi Qing can be seen on the side, one of the major characteristics of this Tai Sui Ye is that he is unreasonable and unmeasured.

That sounds really damaging.

People like this who live to this age and are not beaten to death are either lucky enough to go against the sky, or their fists are so big that they are amazing.

Dongwen Maki was scolded like this, and she was a little annoyed in her heart, but she didn't know how to answer, she didn't want to contradict her elders, so in desperation, she had to set her eyes on Uesugi Kiyoshi.

Uesugi Kiyoshi groaned for a moment, but she didn't let her down and stepped forward.

"Master Tai Sui, we came here this time to discuss something..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Li Taisui.

The Tai Sui Ye, who controls the Chinese Gang in Tokyo, finally showed a bit of the momentum of the superior when facing Uesugi Kiyoshi, his eyes were half-open, his gaze was a little wide, and his fingers tapped on the table, making a crisp and rhythmic sound.

"The Chinese speak well... But which green onion are you kid? ”

The words are quite polite, but maybe because of the reason I heard the hometown dialect, the tone is not too aggressive, and Uesugi Kiyoshi basically understands his temperament, so he doesn't care.

Higashifumi Maki bowed slightly and relieved Uesugi Kiyoshi of the siege.

"He is my teacher, Uncle Tai Sui, and his words can represent my meaning with full authority."

After finishing speaking, Dongwen Maki took half a step back, lowered his eyes, and listened quietly, which was regarded as showing his attitude.

Li Taisui's eyelids jumped, and his smile became a little delicate.

"The little ghost who has not dried up can be the teacher of the eldest lady of the Dongwen Society, and can also talk to me as a talker?"

“... Interesting. ”

He took a sip of wine, exhaled happily, tilted his head, and said casually: "Okay, I'll give Dongwenjue face, what do you have to say." ”

Uesugi Kiyoshi was not stage frightened, he maintained a proper smile, pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and cast a shadow on the eaves above his head, lining his face with a little femininity.

"Master Tai Sui, I am here to discuss cooperation on behalf of the Dongwen Society."

As soon as these words came out, Li Taisui sneered, as if he had heard a big joke.

He raised his eyes slightly, and there was a disapproving look on his face that was slightly vicissitudes.

"Dong Wenjue came to me to say this, I can still hear it."

"Now, Dongwen will change hands, he died tragically in the lair, and the remnants of the defeated army and a little girl are left to talk about cooperation with me?"

"Are you old and confused?"

He paused with some disdain in his tone, and then said: "Okay, our Lao Li is not hard-hearted, I will ask the third child to arrange a guest room for you in a while, if you want, you can stay here with me, and stay as long as you want." ”

"Don't worry, as long as I still have a breath of air, then what kind of wolf, tiger, and leopard in Dongwen will never dare to step into my compound for half a step."

"Of course, if you don't want to, you think that our old Li has bad intentions, and you can leave at any time, and I will never stay longer."

Although Li Taisui has a little northern film Chinese, there is one thing to say, if this Taisui can really fulfill his promise, this act can be called benevolent.

Sheltering Dongwen Zhenxi will inevitably offend Dongwenyu and the Dongwenhui under his command, and now that Dongwenjue is dead, he can do this step for the sake of the old love, which can be regarded as benevolent and righteous.

I will protect you when you come, I won't keep you when you leave, with a frank style, if you change someone else, you don't fall into the well, you already have a conscience.

But Uesugi Kiyoshi didn't come to ask for asylum.

He smiled and took another half step forward.

"Tai Sui Ye attaches great importance to love and righteousness, we have heard of it for a long time, and now we are more famous when we meet, and we understand this friendship."

"But we're really here to talk about cooperation."

Uesugi Kiyoshi's eyes were sincere, and his tone was earnest.

"When you started in Shinjuku, you were embattled, those opponents united to exclude you, and you couldn't intervene in the right livelihood, so you could only steal and do those difficult and dangerous jobs to make a living, and your brothers had eaten the last meal and the next meal, and life was not easy, and it was President Tobun who extended a helping hand to you at that time."

"That's why there was the Tai Sui Gang later."

"Of course, we don't mean to repay the favor, but since then, for so many years, the Dongwen Society and the Tai Sui Gang have been closely connected, everyone has money to earn together, and when they encounter difficulties, they also carry it together, advance and retreat together, and there is always a piece of incense."

"Now, the only daughter of your old friend is in trouble, can you bear to see her being oppressed by rebellious ministers and thieves, and the foundation that President Dongwen has laid down for half of his life is lost?!"

Hearing this, Dongwen Zhenxi's heart moved, and he instantly understood that this was "moving with emotion".

Uesugi Qing said the truth, but Li Taisui didn't repay the kindness of helping at the beginning, and now he takes it out and says it, it's just playing an emotional card.

Li Taisui paused as his fingers lightly tapped the table, and said in a deep voice: "I owe Dong Wenjue a favor to that old thing, I have already paid it back, you don't use these to press me." ”

"Moreover, I also said that I can shelter the little girl of the Dongwen family, and if I do this, our old Li has no shame in his heart."

This is not leaky, and Uesugi Kiyoshi is not discouraged.

"Master Tai Sui, do you think that Dong Wenyu will give up like this?"

"Dongwen will be in his hands now, but the biggest piece of fat is out there! You know what I'm talking about! ”

"The two trading companies that President Dongwen used as a cover for smuggling are both under the name of Maki, and Dongwenyu will definitely not let go of such a big profit."

"If Maki loses, this business will fall into the hands of Dong Wenyu, with his insatiable character, do you think... Will this deal last long? ”

"This wolf of Dongwen has a big appetite and doesn't have a good attitude towards the Chinese Gang, you should have heard of this, right?"

"When you deal with him, don't you lure the wolf into the house and seek the skin of the tiger?"

"But if you don't deal with him, let's not talk about whether he will be entangled, more than seventy percent of the Tai Sui Gang's economic resources rely on the smuggling channels in the hands of our two families, you stop this work, and your brothers will go to drink the northwest wind?"

"Tai Sui... Think again! ”

The disdain and contempt for Uesugi Kiyoshi on Li Taisui's face has gradually disappeared.

He frowned and shook his head slightly.

"Boy, you're a guy who knows what's at stake, but you don't have to do this business."

"After so many years in Tokyo, if our Lao Li hadn't ordered the coffin book, I'm afraid it would have made people die a long time ago."

"As for Dong Wenyu, if he dares to provoke me... Hey..."

Li Taisui laughed coldly a few times, obviously not taking Dong Wenyu in his eyes.

But in the eyes of Dongwen Zhenxi, who was onlookers, the attitude of this Tai Sui Ye has changed drastically from the beginning.

At least he's already "talking well".

This is "moving with reason".

Uesugi Kiyoshi's face was pale, and he hurriedly said, "What retreat do you have, more reliable than a stable partner for so many years?" ”

"Since you are not afraid of Dong Wenyu at all, why don't you join forces with us and strangle this unstable threat in the cradle first?!"

"It's a gesture for you, isn't it?"

He took another half step forward and stood in front of Li Taisui, his eyes seemed to be burning with flames, which looked very infectious.

"Master Tai Sui, we are here with sincerity!"

"If you are willing to cooperate with us this time, after the matter is completed, in addition to smuggling, we are willing to give up 20% of the rest of the Dongwen Society's business as your reward."

"It's not just about profits, as long as the stores in Shinjuku and Shibuya are under the name of the Tobunkai, you can choose 20% at will, send your own people to operate, and how to develop is up to you."

"At the beginning, the Extreme Way of Tokyo joined forces to squeeze out you, but now, the Tai Sui Gang doesn't have much serious business on the surface, and as for the field outside the Extreme Road, you can't get involved, and the joint xenophobia is already the Tokyo Metropolitan Government... No, it's already an unspoken rule in all walks of life in Japan. ”

"But this rule, we are willing to take the lead in breaking it!"

Kiyoshi Uesugi smiled softly and provocatively.

"There is an ancient saying in the Celestial Empire, called thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, the rise and fall are uncertain, and the world is changeable!"

"At the beginning, those opponents pressed you to beat, this anger, you can bear it, swallow it?"

"As long as you help us this time, from now on, the Dongwen Society will become a loyal ally of the Tai Sui Gang, and we will always stand by your side, side by side with you, and never betray."

"Those who have been humiliated and resentful, we might as well join forces, settle accounts with them bit by bit, and take revenge on the gentleman, it's not too late for ten years..."

Dongwen Maki's beautiful eyes sparkled, and there was already some admiration in his eyes when he looked at Amisugi Qing - in a different place, if she was Li Taisui, I am afraid she would agree to come down.

This is to lure it to profit, by the way, I figured out the character of this Tai Sui Ye, Li Fuyao said, from then to now, Li Tai Sui has not been comfortable in Tokyo, and has been holding back a depression, and now, this depression has also become a weapon in Uesugi Qing's words.

Li Taisui squinted his eyes and stared at Uesugi Kiyoshi deadly, and after a long time, he spat out the wine and smiled lightly.

"What a sharp-toothed offspring... If our Lao Li is twenty years younger, maybe he will really let you say that he will move, and he will do a big vote with you! ”

"I'm old, I don't have such a strong sense of victory, you better go to someone else for the matter of fighting and killing."

That's what he said, but in Uesugi Qing's opinion, Li Taisui was obviously moved, otherwise he could have driven people directly, why did he say such words that he wanted to refuse and welcome?

He made up for the kick.

"Master Tai Sui, this kind of [animal] is a man... Until death, it is the heart of a teenager. ”

"Your spirit, you don't have a penny to do with the old man!"

"Besides, you're old, your brothers... What to do? ”

"Do they want to marry and have children? Do they want to beg for a living? Their next generation... Do you have to climb up from the bottom step by step?! ”

"Now, the opportunity is right now."

Uesugi Kiyoshi took a deep breath, his eyes became a little more eager, and the whole person belonged to a state of being ignited - a lobbyist, if he can't even impress himself, how can he impress others?

His voice was raised three points high, and he waved his arms, which was quite impassioned.

"Tai Sui Ye, this is good for you, we can achieve a win-win situation!"

"Do you really think that the limit of the Tai Sui Gang is like this? Do you want to spend the rest of your life in this little courtyard and grow old in silence like an ordinary old man?! ”

"With all due respect, this ending... Not for you! ”

"Horses have a journey of thousands of miles, they can't go without riding, people have the ambition to reach the sky, and they can't pass by themselves without luck."

"Single-handedly, it is difficult to roar alone, Zhuge Kongming burned 800,000 soldiers in Chibi, and he still has to rely on an east wind!"

"To achieve great things, a person always needs some luck and some friends."

"I'm your luck and your friend!"

"It's the east wind that you ride on for nine days!"

"If you don't take it, you will be blamed for it, and if you can't do it, you will suffer it!"

"Tai Sui Ye! This is a gift from God! ”

"You're still here... What to hesitate about? ”

Dark clouds obscured the sky, and heavy rain whistled down.

The loud words of the young man dressed in white pierced through the rain curtain and went straight to the hearts of the people.
