In the lobby of the Gu family, Gu Qingfeng was smiling, holding hot tea, chatting with Lin Zijue happily.

"Master Gu, I want to discuss something with you, and I hope to get the help of Brother Ren."

"Hey, Brother Lin, you and I are my in-laws, why do you need to be so polite, what is there but it doesn't hurt to say it, Gu will definitely do his best, the family doesn't talk to each other, it's okay."

Seeing that Gu Qingfeng was in such a happy mood and spoke boldly and generously, Lin Zijue said it generously.

In normal times, in a nobody's family like the Lin family, even the dust behind Gu Qingfeng can't eat, but now, it is not what it used to be in the in-laws, and it is the newlywed Yan'er period, Gu Qingfeng naturally speaks generously and heroically, so that Lin Zijue also has the capital to raise conditions.

"Brother Gu, that's the case, you don't know, although the younger brother now has his own small business in Yangzhou City, but it is also a bleak business, just because there is no one above us, everything is controlled by others, and in Yangzhou is also living aggrieved, groveling and working hard for many years, and now he has made a small achievement, but not long ago he ran into big trouble, so he came to Bizhou Jiangcheng to join his old friend, but the old friend was unable to do anything, and now the situation is embarrassing, and the situation is embarrassing......"

Gu Qingfeng took a sip of tea, thinking that he also had some strength in Yangzhou, so he nodded and motioned for him to continue.

When Lin Zijue saw that there was a play, he gushed again: "I don't know if Brother Gu can know Yang Huaiping in Yangzhou?" It is this person who seems to look down on us small households, and suppresses me everywhere, and most of my financial routes are cut off by him, and he often oppresses me and other small businessmen. ”

The two brothers Yang Huaiping and Yang Huailin, who are known to everyone in Yangzhou, are indeed notorious, and their brother Yang Huailin helped to abuse all kinds of evil, and did some unsightly things, but in this world, the crows are as black as a crow, and no one's hands are much clean.

But this favor can't help, the bad thing is that Yang Huaiping has something to do with his father-in-law, this Yang Huaiping and Zhao Yin actually had a marriage contract, but at that time, the Gu family was proud, so they used some means to warp the big tree of the Zhao family. Now that the Yang family is gradually gaining power, and the Zhao family is getting better and better, Gu Qingfeng also has some scruples, and he can't go against his father-in-law and make enemies of the Yang family for the sake of a concubine's family affairs.

If this Zhao Wanggu ignores it, it is easy to say, if you want to contain it, it is not that the Longwang Temple was injured by the flood and injured his family, and if the new hatred and old hatred of the Yang family are counted together, it is also a tricky problem, so I want to find a reason to sift the sugar over perfunctorily.

Gu Qingfeng hesitated for a moment, and then nodded slowly for a long time and said, "Brother Lin, it's not a big deal that you're busy, when I have time, just find someone to bring a letter over and let him be tolerant." ”

Lin Zijue believed it and thanked him bluntly: "Then there is Brother Lao Gu, if the matter is done, I will visit and thank you, and my brother's future will be all handed over to Brother Gu." ”

Gu Qingfeng smiled hypocritically: "Hahaha, it must be!" ”

Yangzhou City, Zhao's house......

Zhao Wanggu and his eldest son Zhao Tancen were talking, when suddenly the family outside the door came to report that Jiangcheng Situ's father and son visited.

This Zhao Wanggu is a major warlord in Yangzhou, and his ancestors have been a famous family for generations, although he is already in his sixties, he is still majestic and high-spirited, and his ability and power have not decreased back then, and he has become stronger and stronger.

The current wife Qin is a sister of Luan Sheng with Situ She's wife who died young, and the previous wife also died of illness, the eldest daughter Zhao Yin was born to his ex-wife Liu, and the second son Zhao Tancen was born to Qin Wentong, so Zhao Yin was more than 20 years younger, and Zhao Tancen was only in his twenties at this time.

The father and son gave each other a look, and then went to the living room to welcome the guests, although the Situ family and the Zhao family are also relatives, they have rarely interacted since the death of the Qin family.

In the living room, Qin Wentong pulled Situ Zhaoyang and began to grow up at home: "Brother-in-law, oh, Zhaoyang, this child has grown up so big, and he was born with a talent and good looks, alas, my sister doesn't have that blessing, and I can't see such an excellent son." ”

Situ Shi tugged at the corners of his mouth slightly, sighed before he said slowly: "Alas, yes, but it's been so many years, so I won't mention her, now everyone is as good as ever, people always have to look forward." ”

"Hahaha, I said that the magpie came to the door this morning and called for chirp, I didn't expect what wind blew Brother Situ here today, you haven't come to my Yangzhou for a long time, right?"

When the two were reminiscing, Zhao Wanggu's thick and rough voice came in from outside the door, and there was an equally sturdy young man behind him, who was in good spirits, in his prime, and also had a good skin.

Situ Shi listened, then stood up from the sofa and shook hands with Zhao Wanggu, who had just come in: "It turned out to be Brother Zhao hahaha, I haven't seen you for a long time, how are you lately, you are still like this, you haven't changed at all!" ”

"This is? This is Tancen, right? ”

Zhao Wanggu smiled and said: "Yes, I have become a man in a flash, talk about Cen Lai, call someone quickly, this is your Uncle Situ." ”

Zhao Tancen was born into this warlord family, he has practiced martial arts since he was a child, his body is strong, and his skin is also bronzed.

"Uncle Situ."

Situ Shi smiled and nodded, and introduced Situ Zhaoyang behind him to the father and son: "This is the dog Situ Zhaoyang, and he is still a student." ”

Situ Zhaoyang nodded at the two, smiled lightly, and greeted politely: "Uncle Zhao, cousin." ”

Zhao Wanggu said with a smile: "Yes, yes, he is a good seedling, this man from a reading family is different, polite, gentle and elegant hahaha." ”

A few people were courteous to each other, sat down and drank some tea, and Situ Shi got to the point. Wanting to speak and stopping, his eyes were a little hesitant, Qin Wentong was a smart woman who was empathetic and could see the situation, so he led some subordinates and retreated one by one, and there were only four people left in the hall.

Zhao Wanggu said without a smile: "What is the matter with Brother Situ, there is no one else now, you don't have to hide it, just say it happily!" ”

Situ Shea nodded slightly and smiled: "Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just that I don't think it's appropriate for others to listen to these things, Brother Zhao doesn't know, although in Jiangcheng, although my Situ family can be regarded as one of the best families, but over the years, in addition to the construction and development of Shuhua Academy, it is still to do some maritime trading, but this He family is really domineering." ”

Zhao Wanggu was puzzled and puzzled: "This He family is just a generation of businessmen, what do you want, you can tell me in detail!" ”

Situ Shen continued: "This He family's industry is thriving, monopolizing most of the wealth of Bizhou Jianghai Wharf, so that other people are more and more unable to live, and now this social turmoil, my small academy, is becoming more and more unable to make any oil and water, the days are becoming more and more barren, and the business is also bleak, and the situation is declining, so I also hope that you can help from it, suppress and suppress, this He family's limelight, share some wealth and fortune with me, if it is done, you and I will share the dividends, this Yangzhou you are still in the sky, How about I have a place in Jiangcheng too? ”

Zhao Wanggu squinted his eyes, laughed dryly, and secretly thought in his heart.

This He family is also a big family in Bizhou Jiangcheng, over the years, the business is becoming more and more prosperous, the first few years are just the business of medicinal materials, because the road is not wide and tepid, but over the years I don't know why, suddenly started to open up several ways, in addition to the medicinal materials business, and opened some, what gold, silver and jewelry business, what silk business, the most important thing to mention is the gunpowder business, which also makes many people red.

With the current strength of the Zhao family, it is easy to suppress the He family, and it is easy to use a strategy casually to let the He family be sent to the cusp of the storm, but it can only make the He family have a certain loss, and it is still difficult to completely trip the He family, after all, this He family is also from a big family.

Zhao Wanggu smiled, he naturally wanted to eat this piece of fat, but he couldn't eat it too blatantly, with Situ She's shield, he was afraid that when the East Window incident happened, no one would be a scapegoat, but these three or seven points seemed to be a bit uneconomical, Zhao Wanggu was such a shrewd person, naturally he would not make a loss-making business.

Zhao Wanggu said with a serious face: "Hahaha, Brother Situ, this He family is indeed a bit arrogant according to what you say, but this He family is also a famous family no matter how you say it, it is not easy to knock down this big stone, ......and it needs to be discussed in the long run."

This greedy and cunning old fox is obviously too wealthy...... Situ Shi thought secretly.

This Situ Shi can also be regarded as an old cadre who has been through a hundred battles in this deceitful "chaotic rivers and lakes", how can he not see this little bit of fancy intestines, but at this time, in order for the two of them to have a step under each other, they have to pretend not to know.

Situ Shi also smiled, made eye contact with him, and his words were also secretive: "Hahaha, Brother Zhao is far-sighted, what he said is very simple, I think about it too simply, this matter really needs to be considered in the long run, but it still has to be Brother Lao Zhao to bother a lot, this method is always there, as the saying goes, there is a policy, there is a countermeasure, if it can be done, how about you six and me?" ”

This Zhao Wanggu was originally a greedy and lustful person, but when he heard that this Situ Shi spoke smartly, and flattered him and made himself greedy for oil and water, he gladly accepted his conditions.

Zhao Wanggu smiled and said: "Hey, since you and I are both like-minded, then listen to what Brother Situ said, once there is an opportunity, we will catch him off guard, and it can be regarded as a lesson for him, this person can't live too flamboyantly, be a low-key person, and have to die well!" ”

It was a cloudless and refreshing weather, but it suddenly became gloomy, as if a bloody storm was coming.
