When Li Songming returned to the ruins of the textile factory, Qiu Yishan and Qiu Gubo had not yet evacuated, but he was just watching from afar, thinking about Keiichi Ikeda's plan that would help him.

Qiu Yishan and Qiu Gubo walked through the fire and easily found the place where the fire was set on fire.

Qiu Yishan squatted in front of the blackened machine: "That's it, there is a strong smell of fire oil, and the prisoner started arson from here." ”

Qiu Gubo stood there and looked around: "It should be this piece, the fire oil is poured on the machine and the ground, after burning, even after burning, the sun is reflective, and it is bright and shiny to see this piece." ”

Qiu Yishan saw that there was no one around, and asked in a low voice: "Eh, this person who is pretending to be me is very smart, he knows that if he burns such a place, he can set everything on fire." ”

Qiu Gubo shook his head: "I don't think so, but I think that he just wants to burn a few machines." ”

Qiu Yishan asked, "Why?" ”

Qiu Gubo said: "Dad, think about it, if you come to set fire, what are you going to do?" ”

Qiu Yishan pondered for a moment and said, "I must have crept in, lit the fire and left." ”

Qiu Gubo said: "That's right, but before this person lit the fire, he deliberately revealed his identity to the bodyguards, letting them know that he was Epiphany, and he just beat them without harming their lives, this approach feels very deliberate, as if telling others - I am Epiphany, I came to set the fire." ”

Qiu Yishan pondered: "Yes, why? Isn't that hurting me? ”

Qiu Gubo shook his head and said, "No, this person is saving you and us." ”

Qiu Yishan asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Qiu Gubo said: "I need to find that Ye envoy." ”

With that, Qiu Gubo turned around and left.

When Qiu Gubo and Qiu Yishan walked out of the fire, they saw Li Songming walking in slowly, looking at the ground all the time, as if thinking about something else, and ignoring the two of them.

Qiu Yishan stepped forward and said: "Boss Li, we have found out the situation at the fire site, and we will give you a detailed investigation report tomorrow, you have to sign it, and in addition, I have to bring back your five subordinates, they are important witnesses." ”

Li Songming nodded: "Thank you, everything will be handed over to Director Qiu, thank you, thank you......"

Li Songming said thank you, but turned around and left alone.

Qiu Yishan looked at Qiu Gubo: "It looks like he's completely stupid." ”

Qiu Gubo didn't say anything, just turned to leave.

Li Songming walked outside Zhang's mansion and looked up at the gorgeous gate, but he didn't dare to enter.

The porter at the door also saw Li Songming, but he didn't say hello and turned a blind eye, which was completely different from his usual attitude.

Li Songming knew that he was now on the verge of bankruptcy, and the people around him did not spit on him or fall into the ground, but just turned a blind eye, which was already his own life, but this also showed Zhang Fuzhi's attitude, Zhang Fuzhi would not help him.

He wondered, why didn't Zhang Fuzhi help himself? If the factory is still there, and Zhang Fuzhi has annexed it, then there are benefits, and now that the factory is burned down and there is nothing, what good does he have, does he just want me to die?

Keiichi Ikeda's offer was tempting, it was the only way out at the moment, but it was too risky.

What conditions did Keiichi Ikeda prescribe?

Keiichi Ikeda prepared a fake insurance contract, the insurer was an insurance company set up by Japan in Shanghai, and the insured was Li Songming, of course, this contract was fake, because Li Songming had never bought it at all, but Ikeda Keiichi said that he had already discussed it with the people of the insurance company, and he could do so, so that the Japanese could naturally come up with a sum of money to let Li Songming get through the trouble.

As for the conditions, Ikeda Kei only said one thing at a glance, that is, to ask Li Songming to help him introduce Ye Yunzhi, the special envoy of the Feng Army.

Why should I be introduced? I just had a meal with him. Li Songming couldn't figure it out, and what he couldn't understand even more was that the Japanese and Fengjun didn't have a good relationship. Why? Why should he be matched? Isn't that putting the cart before the horse?

Li Songming decided to look for Zhang Fuzhi again, if Zhang Fuzhi could help him, he could refuse the "help" of the Japanese, and refuse the insurance contract that fell from the sky and was obviously a trap.

With the last hope, Li Songming walked into Zhang's mansion, and under the guidance of the housekeeper Zhang Fu, he walked into Zhang Fuzhi's study.

After Zhang Fuzhi saw Li Songming, he just motioned for him to sit, and after briefly asking about the situation, he said bluntly: "This matter has absolutely nothing to do with me." ”

Li Songming was stunned, what does this mean?

Zhang Fuzhi said again: "The reason why I want to say this is because, after I say what I say next, you will definitely think that I did it." ”

Li Songming asked, "Big brother, what's the matter?" ”

Zhang Fuzhi asked: "Last night, you and Bo Qi went to Ye Yunzhi's banquet, and according to my arrangement, they gave a golden pig and a golden bull, but you also sent other things, what is it?" ”

Li Songming knew that Zhang Fuzhi asked this, which proved that he knew, but why did he say that I also sent other things? Didn't Jiang Boqi also send it? What does this mean?

Li Songming didn't dare to lie, so he had to tell the truth: "I gave a silver ticket." ”

Zhang Fuzhi asked: "Denomination." ”

Li Songming said: "Five thousand." ”

Zhang Fuzhi smiled: "If you are honest, why do you want to do this?" ”

Li Songming said: "I want to make friends with Special Envoy Ye, after all, I am a businessman, I do this, can the eldest brother understand?" ”

Zhang Fuzhi nodded: "I can understand, but what I don't understand is, why do you want to send it secretly?" Do you want to kick me away? ”

Li Songming hurriedly said: "No, big brother, I didn't mean that. ”

Zhang Fuzhi asked coldly: "Then what do you mean?" I really don't understand, so I'm listening. ”

Li Songming said in a pleading tone: "Big brother, help me, I was wrong, I was really wrong, I will definitely look forward to you in the future, you say go to the north, I will never go south." ”

Zhang Fuzhi hesitated for a while and said: "I treat you as a brother Song Ming, but you always want to stab me in the back, if I want to help you, I have to pay a big price, and what can you give me?" Is it just the horse's head? Don't forget, you're looking ahead to me, and that's what you should do, not what you should have realized after your tribulation. ”

Li Songming knelt down directly: "Big brother, please, except for you, no one can help me, I only need to mortgage the loan from your bank to compensate the foreigners, and I will figure out the rest by myself." ”

Zhang Fuzhi looked at Li Songming, who was kneeling, and stepped forward to help him up for the first time: "Songming, go back, go back and have a good rest, think about it, why is all this." ”

Li Songming got up and looked at Zhang Fuzhi, who didn't give him a clear answer: "Big brother......"

Zhang Fuzhi just waved his hand: "Go back." ”

Li Songming left disappointed, and when he left Zhang's mansion, he kept clenching his fists and gritting his teeth, telling himself that this was the normal state in the world, and he had already prepared for it, and he must not give up on himself.

After Li Songming left, Zhang Fuzhi called Zhang Fu: "Find a way to check Li Songming's accounts, see how much money he owes foreigners, and give me the accurate amount." ”

Zhang Fu nodded, turned around and left, without asking any superfluous words, Zhang Fuzhi just likes such people, doesn't say much, doesn't interject, and does his part.

If Li Songming, Jiang Boqi and his son Zhang Pei'an were all like this, how good would it be?

In the mansion of Zhang's mansion, Hu Shen sat there smelling the smell of incense, listening to Zhang Dingfeng and Rong Pingye's reports on the affairs of Yongcheng in the past few days.

After Zhang Dingfeng finished speaking, he said: "Uncle Shi, Commander Chen is still waiting for your news, after all, the soldiers and horses move, and there is money and food every day, he is almost a little unbearable, and he wants to fight and retreat, I hope you will give me a letter." ”

Hu Shen still closed his eyes: "Returning to the nest is tantamount to announcing that you have lost, and you have offended the foreigners again, so there is only one word at the moment, and that is to wait." ”

Zhang Dingfeng asked, "When do you have to wait?" ”

Hu Shen said: "Wait until I finish what I want to do, oh, in addition, what do you two think of the case of the fire in Li Songming's textile factory?" ”

Zhang Dingfeng glanced at Rong Pingye, and Rong Pingye said coldly: "According to the intelligence, this matter came after Ye Yunzhi invited Jiang Boqi and Li Songming to a banquet, and in addition, according to our eyeliner in Zhang's mansion, Li Songming secretly sent five thousand silver tickets to Ye Yunzhi, so, I think, this matter must be Zhang Fuzhi's doing, right now, he doesn't want anything to go wrong, so once anyone stands in the way, he will kill them all." ”

After listening to this, Hu Shen asked Zhang Dingfeng again: "Dingfeng, what about you?" What do you think? ”

Zhang Dingfeng said: "I think we know too little information about this matter, we can't easily draw conclusions, even if Zhang Fuzhi wants to get rid of Li Songming, he can't burn his factory and swallow his family business, which is far better than completely destroying him. ”

Rong Pingye was very unhappy when he heard this, but he also woke up a little, after all, Zhang Dingfeng did have a point.

Hu Shen finally opened his eyes: "The key to this case is that this fire was put on by the epiphany, at least that's what the eyewitnesses said, a thief, but before doing things, he was deliberately witnessed, do you think this is like words?" Moreover, everything happened after Ye Yunzhi came to Yongcheng, and now the clues of the case are beads, Ye Yunzhi is this line, use Ye Yunzhi to connect these together, and many things will be solved. ”

Zhang Dingfeng thought for a moment, and immediately said: "Understood, I know what to do." ”

Rong Pingye also immediately said: "Uncle Shi, I also understand. ”

Hu Shen said: "Our task is to find Huoling Jian, now we have to push Zhang Fuzhi to the bow of the boat, let him stand at the mouth of the wind and waves, Qiu Gubo and Qiu Yishan father and son, you still have to think of a way." ”

Rong Pingye immediately said: "Uncle Shi, the problem is here, the people we sent to monitor found that on the night of the fire, the two fathers and sons never left, that is to say, that Epiphany was not Qiu Yishan, nor Qiu Gubo. ”

Hu Shen said coldly: "Isn't this nonsense? What did I just say? Ye Yunzhi, he is the key. ”

Rong Pingye's face was slightly red, and he bowed his head and said, "Yes, Uncle Shi." ”
