It was close to half past ten in the evening, Yuan Kui came back from outside exhausted, the nanny brought hot water, and he put his feet in the basin.

Yuan Kui is sixty-two years old this year, and in today's average life expectancy of eighty years, this age can only be said to be in the prime of life, but he looks at least eighty years old without makeup. Yuan Kui rubbed his forehead with his hand, the tentacles were deeply wrinkled, and he suddenly regretted that he had never known what old age was.

The Yuan family is also a famous family, although it is inconspicuous in the Han Dynasty, but it is a giant existence in Tianfeng Province, many governors into Tianfeng Province, but also need to seek the consent of the Yuan family to sit in a stable position, at that time, it is also the most glorious time for the Yuan family, but, just as there is no immortal dynasty, the Yuan family also went downhill in its heyday. The crisis is not an external problem, but an internal one.

The six sons won the heir, Yuan Kui had the last laugh with a tragic victory, but after this battle, the Yuan family was also greatly injured, and the prosperous family suddenly became desolate, after more than 30 years of hard work, the Yuan family reluctantly returned to the place where the overlord of Tianfeng Province was overlord, but the sequelae were equally obvious, and there was no successor.

Yuan Kui has four sons, of which the eldest son and the second son died in the battle for succession, the third son was in a car accident when he went to Mercury on a business trip ten years ago, two spaceships collided, no one on the spaceship was spared, and the bones were not left. When I was a child, I thought it was cute, but when I grew up, I felt a crisis.

How can such a person be in charge of the aircraft carrier of the Yuan family?

Unable to make the prodigal son of the Yuan family turn back and be a new man by all means, Yuan Kui can only try his best to leave Yuan Jiang with a peaceful Yuan family, even if he lives in chaos, he can enjoy his life in peace, but this simple idea has also become unrealistic because of a series of things that have appeared recently.

Thinking of tonight's meeting, his brow deepened. The meeting was convened by the governor of Ma Province, the Han Dynasty belongs to the inheritance of China, although there have been many changes in the process of succession, but in essence it is still the same lineage, but after all, it is not the China it once was.

There have been some changes in the political system.

The provincial governor is the supreme leader of a province, in charge of military and political power, in terms of power, it is already similar to the ancient princes, and the post of provincial party secretary has been abolished. Compared with their predecessors, today's major provinces have more independence and freedom, which has advantages and disadvantages.

Yuan Kui didn't like this change. For no other reason, the reins around his neck were still locked, but the reins around Governor Ma's neck were loosened, and although one end of the rope was still in the middle of his hand, at least he didn't feel breathless.

The so-called meeting is not so much blackmail and blackmail, and to put it neutrally, it is called apportionment. Yuan Kui was very resistant to this approach in his heart, but on the surface, he could only smile and show his support.

Tianfeng Province doesn't want to be so prosperous on the surface, nor is it as peaceful as reported in the news, and what is hidden under the peace is a torrent of undercurrents.

Last month's rebellion was finally said to be a robbery by robbers, but the powerful weapons of destruction and terrible destructive power are not what just robbers can do, the Ma family did not announce the details, and the others turned a blind eye, but they pretended to be deaf and dumb, but the Ma family would not forget them.

A large wave of businessmen was invited back for a meeting, and on that occasion, he donated 300 million yuan, apparently to rebuild public infrastructure and serve the people.

Last month, the anti-radiation base station was either damaged or aging and needed to be rebuilt and strengthened, and he donated 500 million. The anti-radiation base station involves the life interests of every person living in Tianfeng Province, and no one dares to ignore it, but only asking businessmen to contribute, Yuan Kui is still a little reluctant.

Last month, the water transportation project donated 200 million. Mars is short of water, long-term in a dry environment, not only affects the skin, but also affects life, so, after a large amount of water was found in a distant planet, Governor Ma couldn't wait to start the water transportation project, so far, there is still a little effect, at least the amount of water in the Ganjiang River throughout the entire Tianfeng Province has increased a lot.

Tonight's story is the food crisis. Since the beginning of this year, whether it is food or meat, the entire Tianfeng Province is in a state of reduced production, and the reasons for the reduced production are more complicated, Yuan Kui has not had time to study this, when he heard that the chicken plague appeared, he had a premonition that this month was going to bleed heavily, but after meeting with Governor Ma tonight, he realized that the situation was more serious than imagined.

Governor Ma didn't invite anyone else, only called him one, but he didn't want to have this kind of honor at all. Governor Ma's meaning is very clear, I hope he will take the lead in donating, this is a thankless thing, donating more, will not increase the weight in Governor Ma's heart, but if you donate less, there will definitely be no good fruit to eat. But donating too much is also a troublesome thing, and it will be hated by other businessmen.

Everyone's money is not blowing in the wind, he is nominally the richest man in Tianfeng Province, if he donates 50 million, as long as everyone is lower than this amount, he will be able to get by, but if he donates 500 million, just imagine, other people donate 30 million or 40 million, can he get off the stage, even if his face is thick enough, he has to consider whether Governor Ma will hold a grudge.

Doing business in Tianfeng Province, once you are hated by the supreme leader, you are not far from weakening.

Yuan Kui's troubles are not limited to this, he faintly heard the rumors, the merchants of Tianfeng Province are secretly boycotting him, and he has not been called at several recent gatherings, which is a bad sign, and he also knows that he has been hostile to others because of his many cooperation with Governor Ma, but what can he do, Governor Ma has clearly spoken, does he dare not be interesting? The Yuan family is no longer the original Yuan family, if he dares to show a little bit of non-cooperation, it is estimated that it will not be long before the Zhang family, the Li family or the Wang family will replace the position of the Yuan family, maybe in three or five years, the strong Yuan family will disappear in people's eyes.

Left is not, right is not, Yuan Kui is like stepping on a tightrope to dance, if you are not careful, there is a danger of falling into a deep cliff.

I don't know how long it took, when he was about to fall asleep in a daze, the door was knocked on by the housekeeper, the housekeeper had followed him for decades, and he was his most trusted confidant, if it wasn't for something important, he would not generally be bothered at this time, Yuan Kui was slightly startled, and his sleepiness woke up instantly.

"What's the matter?" Yuan Kui habitually showed his strong side, and his eyes were blazing.

"Someone is messing with the black young master." The butler said respectfully.

"Who?" Yuan Kui raised his eyebrows, and a murderous aura struck, Yuan Jiang was his lifeblood, and any act of hurting Yuan Jiang would make him angry.

The butler bowed his head slightly and handed over the tablet.

As his gaze swept over the content of the article, Yuan Kui's face became more and more gloomy, and finally turned off the tablet, gently put it on the side, and shot a slightly squinted gaze that made the housekeeper uneasy, and asked calmly, "Do you know who did it?" ”

"Can't find out." The housekeeper said carefully: "Judging from the method of spreading information, it looks like it was made by spiders. ”

Yuan Kui's heart sank, the spider is a famous hacker in the country, a top hacker wanted by the three empires, although he also has a complete network company, and there are also a few red guests who are known as masters, but when he encounters a spider, it is not enough to see. If the spider strikes, it means that the idea of finding the mastermind behind the scenes from the transmission route has failed. Turning his gaze, "During the exam, did Jiang'er have any conflicts with anyone?" ”

Yuan Kui knows his son very well, and he is also very skillful in questioning, he does not ask if he has had a conflict with anyone, but directly asks who he has a conflict with. Because he knew that no matter where he went, if he didn't make a little trouble, he wouldn't be his son.

"There's a teenager, though, it shouldn't matter." The butler hesitated.

"Tell me about it."

"Liu Wei'an, 17 years old, from Anyuan City, grew up in an orphanage in Banshi County, came to Xinfeng City a month ago, has no background, thinks it is a profession, and the grade is bronze. He took the special enrollment exam with the young master, but he has been unsuccessful. The housekeeper recited Liu Wei'an's information word for word.

"You give me all the things that Jiang'er has done in the past few days, and don't make any mistakes." Yuan Kui directly got rid of Liu Wei'an, not that he looked down on Liu Wei'an, but that the distance between Liu Wei'an and the Yuan family was too far, and the mantis arm was not enough to describe the gap between the two. The choice of opponents also depends on strength, and Liu Wei'an is not qualified.

The housekeeper, as the guardian of Yuan Kui by Yuan Jiang's side, has long arranged for people to protect him 24 hours a day, no matter whether he is around or not, Yuan Jiang's every move is beyond his eyes, and without any hesitation, he told Yuan Jiang's itinerary in the past few days.

"Those candidates who failed the list, those parents who oppose Jiang'er, check it out." Yuan Kui paused, his expression a little solemn, "And Lu Chenming, focus on the investigation, pay attention to your whereabouts, and don't let him find out." ”

"Yes!" The housekeeper was taken aback, Lu Chenming was not an ordinary person. However, he trusted the master's judgment and didn't ask too much.

At this time, Yuan Kui's phone rang, Yuan Kui glanced at the number, his face changed slightly, and he waved his hand to let the housekeeper leave, and then pressed the answer button.

"Director Liu, you haven't slept so late."

"Sleep? Mr. Yuan, don't be sloppy, you know the purpose of my call, to tell you that the matter of Yuanjiang is so big and discussed, it has a great impact on the reputation of our Xinfeng University, I hope you will deal with it as soon as possible, otherwise, it will be difficult for the school to do. ”

"Director Liu, don't worry, I promise-" Yuan Kui closed his mouth, his face suddenly turned pale, the other party hung up the phone, Liu Shiguo dared to hang up his phone.
