One night three days later, the rotten old man and Zhu Yuanrun sat in a small restaurant, leisurely drinking wine.

The shopkeeper saw that the two had been sitting there since the afternoon, and had no intention of leaving, so he stepped forward and reminded them, "Comrade, we are closing, you see ......."

After the shopkeeper finished speaking, the rotten old man quietly gave Zhu Yuanrun a look.

Zhu Yuanrun understood, took out 5 yuan and slapped it on the table, "Boss, let's sit for a while, you see if these are enough." ”

After seeing the money on the table, the shopkeeper nodded hurriedly and said, "Enough is enough, sit down slowly, just tell me what you need!" ”

After receiving the money, he happily turned around and walked to the back kitchen, but was stopped by Zhu Yuanrun, "Hey, boss, don't leave yet, if it's okay, sit with us for a while." ”

The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't understand what the two meant, but he had just overcharged the money, and he was embarrassed to refuse directly, "This... Not really. ”

"It's okay, we just have something to ask you, you see it's just the two of us diners now, you shouldn't have anything else to do."

"That's right, that's okay." Seeing that the other party insisted again and again, and that there was really nothing to do now, the shopkeeper sat down half-pushing.

After he sat down, Zhu Yuanrun immediately poured him a glass of wine, "Hehe, come on, come on, the boss will drink one first." ”

The shopkeeper thought about it, and the money that shouldn't have been collected was collected, and the money that shouldn't have been sat was also sitting, so he didn't shirk anymore, "That... That's embarrassing. ”

Seeing that he raised his wine glass, Zhu Yuanrun hurriedly called the rotten old man. "Where's what this says, come! Let's go first. Come together! ”

The rotten face Lao Dao cooperated and drank a drink, "Okay, good, Poor Dao also drinks." ”

After a glass of wine, Zhu Yuanrun enthusiastically sandwiched a chopstick dish and put it on the owner's plate, "Boss, don't patronize and drink, eat food to suppress the wine." ”

The shopkeeper also drank the wine, and it was not bad for this chopstick dish, and after eating it in two bites, he asked them happily, "Well, the two of you haven't said anything about it." ”

The rotten old man first filled the shopkeeper with wine, and then pretended to be embarrassed and said to him: "Alas~ It's a long story......"

When his words fell, Zhu Yuanrun immediately raised his wine glass and said, "Dao Chief!" Don't sigh, there will always be a way for things, don't think so much, come! Drink one. The boss comes together, I'll do it first! ”

"Good, good, drink, drink!" Zhu Yuanrun had just dried the wine in the cup, and the rotten old man immediately drank it.

Although the shopkeeper was a little puzzled, it was not easy to refuse, so he had to dry the wine as well.

In the ensuing hours, the two kept drinking the shopkeeper in different ways, and before he knew it, he gradually began to lose consciousness, until he finally fell asleep on the table.

"Boss? Boss? ”

Zhu Yuanrun pushed his body and shouted a few times, and when he saw that he didn't react, he immediately said to the rotten-faced old Tao: "Dao Chief, he has been drunk to death." ”

The rotten-faced old man stroked the sparse beard on his chin, revealing a natural expression, "Hehe, how about the medicine refined by the poor Dao?" ”

"Awesome! After eating, drinking wine is like drinking water. Zhu Yuanrun gave him a thumbs up in agreement.

"Xiaoyou is really getting better and better at talking, okay, it's time for us to get down to business."

After the rotten face said this, he took the lead in getting up and walking to the back kitchen, Zhu Yuanrun smiled and immediately followed.

Half an hour later, the two took advantage of the cover of night and quickly left the small restaurant.

Half a month later, Zhu Yuanrun and the rotten face Lao Dao sat at the table at that time in the small restaurant, drinking wine as leisurely as then.

"Hehe, Dao Chief, you are still amazing, it only cost less than 100 yuan to take down this store."

The rotten face took a slow sip of wine, "Of course, a family of three is so dead, who else dares to ask for this store?" ”

Listening to his words, Zhu Yuanrun said with some concern: "I'm afraid that when the time comes, outsiders will know that there are dead people here, and they won't dare to come to eat, so this business will have to lose money." ”

"Oh~ Xiaoyou, you only know one thing but you don't know the other. The tenant here is dead, do you think the landlord will speak out? ”

Having said that, Zhu Yuanrun was still a little worried, "What about the surrounding tenants and landlords?" We can't keep their mouths shut. ”

The rotten-faced old man shook his head and smiled: "Hehe, this is a commercial street, do you think those people will say it?" Aren't you afraid of burdening yourself? ”

Zhu Yuanrun was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but quickly figured out the joints, and then laughed, "Hahaha!" The Taoist is worthy of being a master, high! It's really high! Come! I toast you. ”

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say......"

After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Zhu Yuanrun suddenly put down the wine glass in his hand, and said to the rotten-faced old Taoist with a dark smile: "Dao Chief, you said that the rent of 30 yuan a month is ... Hey hey ......"

The rotten face Lao Dao glanced at him, and pretended to be profound: "Xiaoyou said that I want to think about it, and it is also my wish......"

A month later, Zhu Yuanrun met the landlord's only daughter in a chance encounter;

Three months later, the two established a romantic relationship and were approved by the landlord couple;

Half a year later, the two got married;

A year later, the landlord and his wife died of gas poisoning while burning a briquette stove to heat themselves on a winter night;

Three years later, Zhu Yuanrun sold the landlord's house and shop, and followed the advice of the old man to buy a two-story small building along the street in the center of the city;

Five years later, Zhu Yuanrun had a second branch and started charity at the same time;

Ten years later, the turbulent era finally ended, and Zhu Yuanrun used his accumulated fame to begin publishing articles on diet therapy in magazines;

Thirteen years later, the spring breeze of reform blew all over the ground, and Zhu Yuanrun's third branch opened, and he married a female nurse. At the end of the same year, Zhu Dachang was born;

Twenty years later, Zhu Yuanrun has 7 branches, and has become the vice president of the Shanghai Restaurant Association, and rebuilt the Qingfeng Temple on the original site for the rotten old road;

Twenty-five years later, Zhu Yuanrun began to set foot in the hotel business and had his first hotel;

Thirty-five years later, Zhu Yuanrun reintegrated his assets, retaining only two four-star hotels, three seafood restaurants and two office buildings, and began to participate in various TV programs.

Forty years later, in 2009, 74-year-old Zhu Yuanrun retired, resigned as president of the Shanghai Restaurant Association, and handed over Zhu's Hotel Management Co., Ltd. to his son Zhu Dachang to manage.

In the past 40 years, Zhu Yuanrun has climbed from a poor person to the top of the pyramid step by step, creating one myth after another.

In the past 40 years, I don't know how many families have been torn apart and ended miserably for various reasons.

In the past forty years, the only thing that has remained unchanged is the friendship between Zhu Yuanrun and the rotten face......

"Teacher Zhu? Mr. Zhu! You've got your phone in the picture! ”

Zhu Yuanrun, who was asleep, heard someone calling him in a trance, and then opened his eyes with resentment, and the owner who looked at the voice said angrily: "What's the matter? Don't know I'm resting? ”

The little nurse couldn't stand his aura a little, and quickly explained: "I'm sorry, Mr. Zhu, I didn't mean to disturb you, I just ......"

Zhu Yuanrun didn't bother to talk to her, and interrupted her in a cold voice, "Okay!" Take it! ”

The little nurse swallowed her saliva, quickly handed over the phone, and then ran away without looking back with tears in her eyes.

took the phone and took a look, and found that several missed calls were from Assistant Liu, he thought about it for a while, and decided to call to ask about the situation, "Hey! Xiao Liu, why do you want to keep calling me? ”

"I'm sorry, Mr. Zhu! Something happened to Huang Juan, I... I don't know what to do... How to say. ”

Zhu Yuanrun is most tired of Assistant Liu, that is, this person has no responsibility at all in doing things, he is afraid of wolves and tigers, "Hmph! What does it look like! ”

"Okay, okay, Mr. Zhu. Here's the thing......"

After listening to Assistant Liu's report, Zhu Yuanrun suddenly became angry, and roared directly at the mobile phone, "This shameless slut!" And that stupid Lin Siyi! You tell him that I don't care what he does, three days, I'll only give him three days! If he can't do it, I'll do it! You're also included! ”

finally finished saying this sentence, Zhu Yuanrun didn't even hang up the phone, and smashed it directly against the wall.

Assistant Liu heard the movement from his mobile phone, and was instantly scared into a cold sweat, he knew that he had finally saved his life temporarily, although it was only three days, but there was still a chance to live. So he didn't think about it, so he told Lin Siyi what Zhu Yuanrun meant, and added fuel and vinegar to Lin Siyi through his mobile phone.

At this time, Lin Siyi was busy looking for her traces back and forth in several locations where Huang Juan often frequented. After receiving Assistant Liu's call, he was also scared into a cold sweat.

But he is a killer after all, and he is much calmer than Assistant Liu in handling things. After thinking about it for a while, he thought that since Huang Juan hadn't gone home or anywhere else, it was not clear that she would return to the resort to dispose of the body. Although this is unlikely, but in the current situation, he can only try his luck, so he immediately turned the car around and rushed to the resort.

After returning to the resort, he followed the path he had first touched to the back window of the cabin, and then rolled over and entered the bathroom.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he landed on his feet, he saw two big men with their backs to him, disposing of the corpse of Ah Ghost in the bathtub.

In a dilemma, he knew that only by striking first could he have a chance to survive, otherwise as long as he made a little movement, he would be discovered by them. One-on-two, it's not such a fun thing.

Immediately, Lin Siyi quietly took out a dagger from his arms, and slowly walked towards the two of them on his tiptoes.

Just as the dagger in his hand was about to reach the back of one of them, suddenly, the wooden door of the bathroom was slammed open.

"Who are you!"
