Lee Dunzhu smoked a cigarette and stood outside the ghost town, the sky was getting dark, but the venue was still in full swing. Every time the Sanjiang Ghost Town Conference is held, it is the most lively time in the whole Jianghu. Tiannan Haibei, all the gentry will arrive, and at that time, those who have no money desperately want to squeeze into it, as if they can make a fortune if they enter the Sanjiang Ghost Town Conference. And those who have money regard the Sanjiang Ghost Town Conference as a high-level chamber of commerce, dividing interests, privately forming alliances, and achieving great things in the next few years.

This is the second time that Lee Dunzhu has come to participate in the Sanjiang Ghost Town Conference, and the last time was 20 years ago, but the memory of that year is still vivid.

"Minister, the outer barrier is arranged." One of Lee Dunzhu's right-hand men came over and reported. Li Dunzhu came back to his senses when he heard the movement, nodded and said, "Okay, the infield is the business of the Shenmen and the Haotian family, and it is not our responsibility, you let the brothers rest." By the way, you give this money to your brothers, the salary is too small, and I will use my own money to subsidize the brothers. ”

As he spoke, Li Dunzhu took out a stack of money from his pocket and handed it to his subordinates, who looked happy when they got the money, and hurriedly said, "I thank the minister for my brothers." ”

"Go ahead, wait for a few days for the Sanjiang Ghost Town Conference to officially start, you still have to be busy."

After his subordinates left, Li Dunzhu was about to lift his feet while smoking a cigarette, when several tall men suddenly came out from behind, and after seeing Li Dunzhu, he said: "Minister Li, our master wants to talk to you." ”

Li Dunzhu is also a cadre of the 507 Institute now, and his status in the rivers and lakes is not low, and it is not easy for ordinary gold bosses to ask him to meet. Normally, Lee Dunzhu would refuse this kind of invitation, but this time he was just about to open his mouth when he saw the badges pinned to these people, and immediately changed his words: "Okay, lead the way." ”

The men took Lee Dunzhu to a small house nearby, which was not too big and was made locally. Generally, it will be rented out when the Sanjiang Ghost Town Conference is held. The identity of the person who rents this kind of house is not simple, and the average individual guest has few places to live during the event, either sleeping in the car, or finding a flat place in the field to set up a tent to sleep. Twenty years ago, when the Sanjiang Ghost Town Conference, it cost hundreds of yuan to rent a house here, and in that era when the monthly salary was only a few dozen yuan, hundreds of yuan can be said to be a lot of money.

"Please." Several men brought him to the door and made a gesture to invite him in. Lee straightened his collar and gently pushed the door open, revealing a man sitting in the room. Drinking tea, with a newspaper in front of him, he was wearing a white Tang suit, and he didn't look up after hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, he smiled and said, "Please come in, Minister Li." ”

The person sitting in the room was none other than Mr. Tang, the big financier.

Lee Dunzhu and Mr. Tang are also old acquaintances, having known each other 20 years ago. He was fortunate enough to enter the Sanjiang Ghost Town Conference for the first time, thanks to Mr. Tang's blessing.

After sitting down, Li Dunzhu smiled and said, "Long time no see, Mr. Tang." ”

"Yes, you're so busy right now, I can't even ask you." Mr. Tang said politely.

"No matter how busy you are, you are the big man in the rivers and lakes, and we are all eating behind a big man like you. In the final analysis, the rivers and lakes are still supported by big people like you. ”

After a few words of praise and greetings between the two of them, they turned the topic to the main topic.

"I heard about Ba Xiaoshan's resurrection, and many people say that you saw it with your own eyes, I'm curious, is Ba Xiaoshan really alive?" Mr. Tang also seemed to be interested in the rumors.

Li Dunzhu smiled and said: "This matter is actually not as evil as the rumors outside, I did see a person who looks very similar to Ba Xiaoshan to make a move, but I never said that it was Ba Xiaoshan." Although the bear demon soul that made trouble at the Zhoushan Festival was quite powerful, it didn't have to be a first-class master to deal with it. You also know that there are many juniors on the rivers and lakes who want to get ahead, but they are afraid that they will not be able to win by their own reputation, so they will adopt the name of their predecessors. In the past three years, there has been a lot of uproar about whether Ba Xiaoshan is dead or not, but most of them are young people's farces and cannot be taken seriously. ”

"Then according to what you say, Ba Xiaoshan is not resurrected, but it is just another movement made by a young man who wants to be on top?"

"Hehe, what is the truth, there are also people in our three major alliances who investigated, but I didn't participate in the investigation." After speaking, Li Dunzhu stood up and arched his hand, and said, "If you are here to ask me to verify this matter, I have said everything I can say, and I still have something to do next, so I am afraid I will have to leave." ”

But before Lee Dunzhu could lift his feet, Mr. Tang said, "How does it feel to return to your hometown?" ”

"What did you say?" Li Dunzhu looked at Mr. Tang strangely and asked.

"Twenty years ago, I helped three young people, three people who were not qualified to participate in the Sanjiang Ghost Town Conference, participated in the Sanjiang Ghost Town Conference, and let them earn their first pot of gold. You are one of these three people, the three young people of the year are now going their separate ways, and the greatest achievement is Ba Xiaoshan, but it is a pity that he died. Cui Zhen was the junior I was optimistic about back then, because he had a business brain, but his personality was too angular, and he still needed to polish it well in the rivers and lakes. And among the three young people back then, only you were the one I didn't care about back then. Maybe it's because the other two people have too much light, which makes you look less eye-catching. ”

"What do you want to say?" Li Dunzhu did not feel complacent about the high hat that Mr. Tang suddenly wore on his head, he knew very well that no one would praise you for no reason, and all praise was profitable.

"The three people of the year have gone to the second, but they have all done earth-shattering things. You're the only one, but you're still alive and well. Therefore, you are the one chosen by God to accomplish great things. I requested that the Sanjiang Ghost Town Conference be held in advance, and my purpose was very simple, to join the three alliances and get a piece of the pie. And you can be my secret ally. ”

"You want me to be your internal response. Why should I promise you? 507 is not thin on me, I finally climbed to this position, if Sha Lao finds out that I am your internal deed, you can imagine the end. I'm not kidding with my life. ”

Mr. Tang took a sip of tea, and did not get angry because of Li Dunzhu's refusal, but said calmly: "There is rarely a hammer in the business in the world, and the more profitable the business, the more it needs to be discussed and polished." Zhuzi, you are a smart person, God let Ba Xiaoshan go to Huangquan, so that Cui Zhen can't make a big deal. But you are different, you still have many opportunities in this life to achieve great things and be a big person. But being a cadre in the 507 Institute and running errands for others every day can't be done. ”

"Can I work with you? Hehe, Mr. Tang, I have been in the rivers and lakes for more than 20 years, and the most profound point I have learned and experienced in these 20 years is to recognize myself, I used to think that I was a person who did great things, but now I know that my current position and current status are the most suitable for me. I don't have the ability to climb higher, thank you for your kindness, the beads are in the heart. ”

After saying that, Li Dunzhu arched his hand and left the house, and after he went out, a person next to Mr. Tang came over and whispered: "He is so ignorant of lifting, do you want to send someone to kill him?" ”

Mr. Tang smiled and waved his hand: "He's just testing me, this is a smart person, smart people are always very careful." You can prepare for the Sanjiang Ghost Town Conference with peace of mind, and this transaction between Lee Dunzhu and me is not over yet. ”

Li Dunzhu smoked a cigarette and walked to his place, the righteous refusal just now was not actually his intention, he would not easily agree to Mr. Tang, the more he struggled, the more benefits he would gain.

Walking and walking, I actually arrived at the place where I lived 20 years ago, raised my head and looked along the main road towards the venue at the end of the road, although it was still in full swing, but this time the grand event known as the largest Sanjiang ghost town conference in history has begun to emerge.

Spirited, Lee said to himself: "Twenty years ago, I witnessed your rise here, and twenty years later, I will use this place as a starting point, and one day my reputation will surpass yours, Ba Xiaoshan." ”
