Chapter 95

Early the next morning, in the mansion in the middle of the manor, Marka took Li Xiang to wait here after eating early.

The two of them talked all night last night, and Marka had obviously figured out a lot of things, but when the man was late, he still subconsciously became nervous.

The man in his fifties had a mustache, a well-fitting shirt and waistcoat, and a pipe in his mouth, followed by two young men, the older one in his thirties and the younger one about the same as Maka, who should be twenty-three or fourteen years old.

It looks a little similar to Maka, but the image is much better.

Ma Ka hurriedly got up and said respectfully: "Uncle, eldest brother, third brother." ”

"It's so early today." The man was full of smiles, sitting directly opposite the Maka, and his eyes swept over Li Xiang: "This is the friend who came back with you, right?" ”

Maka nodded and said, "His name is Li Xiang, he is my best friend, and he will stay with us for a while, so I brought him here to get to know everyone." ”

Ma Ka smiled and introduced to Li Xiang: "Li Xiang, this is my uncle, these two are my eldest brothers, Ma Yi and Ma Xin." ”

The two smiled slightly, but did not say anything. For Li Xiang, a guest, he didn't show much enthusiasm.

"Alright." As the head of the family, Ma Chunlin said lightly: "I have something to take your two brothers out in a while, is there anything wrong with you coming over so early?" ”

Marca felt for the three medals in his pocket. Originally, according to his father's explanation, he should have shown the medal to Ma Chunlin, but Li Xiang's words last night made him hesitate.

The honor belongs to himself, not the family, and as a member of the family, he does not need to prove it with these things.

Taking a deep breath, Maka let go of his hand and said, "I'm here to see if there's anything I can do to help!" ”

Ma Chunlin raised his head and asked, "You have been to the south for nearly two years this time, and you have gained nothing?" ”

Marka nodded and said, "I went over there, and I had to get by, I didn't think it was interesting, so I came back directly." ”

"Young people can't do that." A hint of brilliance flashed in Ma Chunlin's eyes, but there was a smile on his face: "There is nothing you need to do here, since you are back, let's rest for a few days first." I'll ask your dad to tell you when I need it. ”

"Uncle, I'm afraid I won't be able to explain it to my father." Marca is a problem.

Ma Chunlin raised his eyebrows: "In this family, your father has the final say, or does I have the final say?" ”

"Of course you're up to the shots." Marca hurriedly said, but thinking of his father's explanation, he didn't dare to slack off, "It's just that if you don't arrange something for me to do, my father will definitely say that I have nothing to do, you can see what I can do, as long as I earn enough to give him an explanation." ”

"What else do I need to explain to your father?" Ma Chunlin was unceremonious.

Makaden bowed his head.

"Hey, Dad, don't do that." Suddenly, Ma Xin, who had been standing next to him, spoke, "Kaka is also a member of the family, since you have the heart to help, you can also give it a chance, lest the third uncle have another opinion, saying that we are deliberately embarrassed." ”

Ma Yi helped: "That's right, you don't know the third uncle's temperament, so don't be embarrassed." ”

Ma Chunlin's face turned slightly pale, and said: "I don't have anything to do here for the time being, since you two have the heart, let's see if there is anything that has not been done, and arrange something for Kaka." ”

"I have something here that has been sitting on my hand for a long time and I haven't had time to deal with it, maybe Kaka can give it a try." Ma Xin Road.

When Maka heard that something could be arranged, he hurriedly said: "Third brother, you said, as long as I can do it, I will do my best to share the worries of the third brother." ”

"You know that, too." Ma Xin suddenly sighed: "Hasn't Boss Xu in District 90 been doing business with us before?" He still owes us 30 million for the goods, which have not been delivered; Kaka you just have time, you can go and try to get the money back. ”

Maka's face was extremely pale, and he frowned: "Third brother, aren't you clearly embarrassing me?" Boss Xu's account has been owed for three years, right? Before I went to the Southern Branch, the family had already negotiated no less than ten times, and they obviously didn't plan to pay it back, so how could I possibly ask for it back? ”

For this kind of most difficult to chase bad debts, especially when the other party's forces can't afford to offend at all, they can only be treated as bad debts.

If this could have been brought back, it would have been given for three years.

Ma Xin smiled: "This may not be. In the past, Boss Xu didn't take us seriously, but now it's different, Kaka, you are already a free citizen, just for your identity, Boss Xu has to give some face. Maybe if you go, they'll give it right away. This is a great opportunity to make contributions to the family. You have to grasp it. ”

Maka was embarrassed: "Third brother, it's really not good." Boss Xu, you don't know who they are, if the identity of a free citizen can make them compromise, we don't have to wait for so many years. Those six Mithril daggers are the ones they have set up from the beginning......"

Ma Xin shrugged and said, "I don't have much else to do other than this." As you know, there isn't much of a family business left these days. ”

Before Maka could plead, Ma Chunlin had already waved his hand and said, "Okay, this matter will be given to you first, when do you want Boss Xu's money back, come to me to find something else to do." ”

After saying that, without waiting for Maca to refuse, he had already stood up and left with his two sons.

As if he had lost all his strength all at once, Marca spread out on the couch and muttered, "What a shot in the foot." ”

Li Xiang watched this scene quietly until they left, and then he said: "The three of them, it's a pity not to be actors." ”

Maka turned over and frowned, "Li Xiang, what did you say?" ”

Li Xiang said lightly: "This so-called task should be that they have already designed a way to prevaricate you, it is estimated that yesterday they thought that you would come this morning, so they thought of countermeasures in advance." ”

"Won't it?" Marca was still a little unconvinced.

Li Xiang shook his head and asked, "I'm very strange, why is your father so anxious to let you get started, but your uncle is just the opposite." ”

Maca sighed helplessly: "It's not a rule made by the older generation, in the final analysis, it is a competition mechanism, everyone in the family does everything for the family, will be recorded and scored, used for ranking, the number of points directly determines the status in the family, just like our generation, five men and one woman, a total of six people, and when the uncle retires at the age of sixty in a few years, it will be decided who is the next head of the family according to the contribution of the six of us to the family." ”

"Where is this fair? That's the biggest injustice, right? Li Xiang said with a smile.

Marca nodded helplessly: "It seems fair, but it's not fair at all, not to mention that the eldest brother is six or seven years older than us, and he was the first to take over a lot of affairs, just because most of the tasks are in the hands of the uncle, it is doomed that my aunt and we have no chance to compete." After so many years, I have long been accustomed to it, and I have never thought about doing that step at all, and I have always thought that it is enough to do the best I can do, but now I don't think I even have the most basic equal distribution. ”

Marca fell on the sofa and pretended to be happy: "It seems that I am destined to be like Lu Da that guy in my life, to be a rich second generation, and wait for death to eat." ”

Li Xiang suddenly thought of the incident they had just mentioned, and couldn't help asking, "That Boss Xu, what's going on?" ”

"It's the boss of the underground world in Area 90, the powerful one; About three years ago, I bought six Mithril daggers from our family, but except for the first deposit of 5 million, the balance of 30 million has not been given. In fact, the family later knew that it was deliberately given by the other side, in fact, not only swallowed the money, but more importantly, took that opportunity to start seizing the underground market of Mithril. Because of the relationship behind him, there is nothing our family can do. I guess in the past two years, it's not easy. ”

Li Xiang didn't expect that things were so complicated and involved so many relationships.

However, for Li Xiang, this kind of thing to seize the market is too common, and whoever has the ability will do it, which is no problem. The problem is that taking the goods and not giving them money is a bit excessive.

"If it doesn't work, let's go get the money back." Li Xiang said.

Maka hurriedly said: "No. Not to mention the forces behind Boss Xu, just the accumulation of his own underground world over the years is not something that our Ma family can offend. ”

"So what? Isn't it natural to repay debts? Li Xiang said.

Marca shook his head helplessly: "There are so many natural meanings in this world, and the biggest truth in this world is fists, whoever has a big fist will speak loudly, especially those who do our business." ”

"Do you have any other options?" Li Xiang asked with a smile.

As soon as it came to this, Marca was helpless. "There's no way, so I think it's better to forget it, with my uncle's attitude, it's clear that they don't want me to gain a foothold in the family."

Li Xiang looked at him pretending not to care, and couldn't help laughing: "Okay, don't pretend." What do you think in your heart, I still don't know? ”

With Maka's character, how could he give up when he encountered something.

This kid is just deliberately pretending to be pitiful in front of him, isn't it just to let Li Xiang take the initiative to say that he wants to help?

This guy likes to play this kind of slippery head the most.

Sure enough, being debunked by Li Xiang in one fell swoop, Maca immediately jumped up from the sofa with a grin, and hugged Li Xiang's arm: "It is worthy of my Maca's brother." ”

He sneered: "Of course I can't do it by myself, but who let me have a good brother, right?" As long as you are willing to go out, our brothers are of the same heart, and its profits will be gold. ”

"Don't be disgusting." Li Xiang hurriedly withdrew his hand. Ever since Marka brought him here in the morning, Li Xiang knew what he had in mind.

"Come on, you're so good-looking, I won't lose anything by agreeing to each other." Marca burst out laughing, hard to see.

Li Xiang flew up directly and kicked him out.
