Chapter 158: I Will Not Seek Revenge Again
Of course I know how to go in and out. I don't speak, I don't smile, I try my best to serve the old man well, and I am as respectful as a favorite servant to the king. The leaves carried water, lit the blood eggplant, and set the ashtray in front of him, respectfully, but not flatteringly.
I only know Zhang Chenglin and Du Shaoqing of those people in the room. Of course, it was the first time I had met Huo Zhuoshan, and when I met this old man, it was hard for me to imagine what kind of cruelty and cunning he had used to build his empire.
Strangely, he walked straight up to me and looked me up and down for a while: "This little girl has a kind face, and the beauty mole on your eyebrows is very special...... What is your name? ”
I could see that this person was the master of this matter, and he was the person who the Jintang did not want to see, so I replied simply: "Mao Jiujiu!"
"What? Do you sex? There is probably no such surname among the 100 surnames in China, aren't you...... Orphans?" Huo Zhuoshan's face was surprised, his shocked expression was misty, so that he could travel through time and space to reach a certain point in time.
Old man Wang grabbed the rhythm of the conversation: "This is my dog's friend, Mao Jiujiu, I have seen Boss Huo!" ”
I was puzzled as to why Mr. Wang introduced me to others, as a friend of the Miantang. This indescribable title makes me feel a little awkward.
Why is Old Man Wang so earnest? Isn't he a fierce old man at home, now it's like two people, I was confused and saluted: "Master Huo, hello!" ”
Huo Zhuoshan looked at Old Man Wang, and then looked at me: "I think I made a mistake, the appearance of Mao Jiujiu actually reminded me of an old man." ”
I suddenly found that his gaze had been following me, although just a casual glance was enough to startle me, and I was so uncomfortable that I couldn't help but look at Old Man Wang. Old Man Wang's calm cane, he can't see that the wind on his face is clear and cloudless. Probably the master is about the same as the block, the expression on the face is sometimes a fatal hole card, the two of them look at each other like this for more than ten seconds, I think the scene is very embarrassing, I secretly thought, how can I be an old friend he knows? Am I really as beautiful as a flower, and I am being overwhelmed by everyone?
No, we are nearly 40 years apart.
But they were all people who had seen the storm and waves, and soon regained their composure and moved towards the official meeting.
Everyone is watching to see if Old Man Wang's sadness and frustration make him show weakness, and the question that everyone is perusing is why Old Man Wang did not start the contract until after Na Miantang was imprisoned, which is tantamount to admitting defeat, which will almost certainly lead to his failure, and they will soon know the answer.
Everyone greeted each other, greeted each other, faked affection, and did enough work for the scene, and another half an hour passed.
Old man Wang sat down at the shiny mahogany conference table. I was humble and sat on the left side of Mr. Wang, and this signal caused the other butlers to enter the conference room one after another, and their respective butlers sat behind their boss. The butler sits close to the door so that he can give advice to the boss when needed.
The observers I pay attention to are the movements of these crowds: Du Shaoqing sits in the Hakka position on the right-hand side, Zhang Chenglin sits in the Hakka position on the left-hand side, and Huo Zhuoshan sits in the left-hand position of the east. There was a man standing next to each of the three. Du Shaoqing standing next to him is naturally the master of their Sanxin company. Huo Zhuoshan is standing next to him, but he is a strange face, most of this person's face is covered by hair, and the wine bottle in his hand never leaves his hand, making people feel that except for the things in the bottle, it seems that all the people and things around him have nothing to do with him, Old Man Wang can see at a glance that this drunkard is different, and guess that he is the number one person.
Old man Wang looked up at the drunkard and smiled slightly: "The heroes are also out of the mountain?" ”
The drunkard took a sip of wine unhurriedly and said, "A drunkard is not enough to worry about." The words just fell. The master behind Du Shaoqing immediately interjected: "The drunkard of one of the thirteen Taibao ......"
The drunkard glanced at Mr. Wang and said, "Hello Mr. Wang!" ”
Old Man Wang nodded and smiled: "Thirteen Taibao, Boss Huo brought such a master with him, it seems that he came prepared!" ”
Huo Zhuoshan said with a smile: "The drunkard brother wants to come and have a good time, and it is inevitable that Fang Gufang will appreciate himself when he drinks, and it will be less interesting." ”
Old man Wang said proudly: "It is better to be happy alone than to be happy with everyone." In this meeting, in this small room today, the 13th Taibao squeezed into three, don't be too lively! ”
I was shocked before I could see it. Huo Zhuoshan had already nodded and admitted: "It's still Old Man Wang's good eyesight."
He said to the disciples in the hall: "Don't hide it, you haven't seen Old Man Wang yet" As soon as the words fell, there were immediately two people: two strangely dressed men, spotless white, not black, the two of them were as pale as ghosts, even their pupils were white, the most strange thing was that these two people looked exactly the same, and if they changed their clothes, they couldn't tell who they were.
I wanted to put my head down in the slit. These two are the same people who hunted down us in the orphanage! I don't know if he recognized me, and I kept backing away so as not to be recognized by them. Thankfully, their focus is not on us.
"Twin black and white?" The old man asked.
Huo Zhuoshan nodded, and said in a deep voice: "They can't speak, they can only do things...... There was a lot of coldness in his words.
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became tense, and under the sensation of the crowd, there was a feeling that I was going to do it at any time, and I was deeply afraid of facing the three thirteen Taibao, only me and Old Man Wang on our side, who won and who lost in a real fight, isn't it obvious?
Of course, the boss saw that the situation was tense, but he was just indifferent: "I brought so many masters today, but for my sake, no one should move, we have to talk about things today." ”
Everyone is subject to the boss's face, and they don't dare to make too many moves in front of the boss's assistant, and they are all restraining themselves.
In addition to these four people, there were dozens of disciples on the left and right sides of the hall. The people of Sanxin Company wore all black silk clothes and pants. But what puzzled me the most was that although these people were not easy to deal with, they looked at me with a cold meaning, and I didn't want to cause unnecessary disputes, so I simply bowed my head and ignored them.
I guess if it weren't for the old man's reputation, if this matter wasn't handled well, not only would I be stung with a big bag, but even Pony Six and they might not be spared.
Old man Wang was the first to speak, as if nothing had happened - his most important brother had publicly condemned him and kidnapped him. His only adopted son is still in prison. The sect's empire is crumbling, and the family is falling apart.
"I want to thank you all for coming," said Mr. Wang, "I think this is a favor for me, I owe each of you a debt of affection, there is a sentence I want to say ahead, I am not dying for a quarrel today, or I can't sleep, I don't want to eat, in a certain matter, discuss who is right and who is wrong, I just want to make it clear, do my best personally, I hope everyone will still be friends when we break up today, I promise to do it, some of you who are familiar with me, know that I never promise anything easily, Let's start today's formal talks, and all of you here today are some of the biggest names in the industry, unlike lawyers, who sign each other's signatures. ”
He paused, the others did not speak, two were smoking cigars, one was drinking, they were all patient and good listeners, they all had one thing in common, they all belonged to the kind of very good people, they refused to obey the constraints of a toxic society, refused to listen to the reputation of others, unless they wanted to, I would never give in to any force or individual. They use fraud and murder to defend free will, and there is only what or the most logical persuasion to overthrow their consciousness.
Old Man Wang sighed and said, "How did things come to this point? He didn't expect an answer at all. Now that these things have happened, allow me to tell me what exactly happened from my perspective? ”
"The Bodhisattva blessed me with a healthy recovery, maybe I can correct this matter in time, my righteous son that Miantang, probably too proud, too stubborn, I don't deny this, let's just say this, my good brother Liu Xun is interested in the drug trafficking business, I am not interested in it, I like to be quiet, such an enterprising business, it is too lively for me, Liu Xun once consulted my idea, but I refused, I have never looked down on any way to make a living, Liu Xun misunderstood what I meant, so he used his extreme way to deal with it, Just like everyone here, who doesn't have their own sad things? Who doesn't have a red book that is difficult to read. But what happened next was not what I intended. ”
Old Man Wang stopped and gestured to me to drink tea, I immediately handed it to him, and Old Man Wang moistened his throat: "I decided to make peace." ”
After the words were finished, everyone was silent for a minute, and everyone had a calm expression.
Then he said calmly: "I have now lost an important person who can help, and at the same time my son is still imprisoned, we are even, if we give up all the fulfillment, and hold on to hatred, what will the world become?" Therefore, I want to say, everyone has their own lives, let the past pass, I didn't take measures to investigate before today, who made Liu Xun betray me? Who made him kidnap me? I don't want to stir up the peace now, I won't do it today or later, my son can't go back to his home, I have to be assured, when I make proper arrangements, when he comes home safely, there will be no interference, there will be no worries, someone has made unreasonable accusations against him, this matter is arranged, we will talk about it, and give everyone other things that are of interest, let us help us do a good job of our own and everyone's profitable things today. ”
Old Man Wang made a long speech, consolidating his position as the most far-sighted leader among all people, full of logic and common sense, from the bottom of his heart, and to the point: "Therefore, I swear in my name today that I will not seek revenge again, I will not trace the cause and effect of the past, and I will leave here with a frank heart." ”
