Chapter 107 [Confusion] (II)
Bai Yunfei said: "Pifu is not guilty of his crimes, and someone is eyeing the fat on my hand and wants to replace my position in Jinmen." "Although he hasn't been with Luo Lie for a long time, he has already seen that Luo Lie's city is very deep, and if he doesn't reveal his purpose, it is difficult for Luo Lie to be honest."www.biquge.info
Luo Lie said softly: "What person?"
"Japanese!" Bai Yunfei's eyes burst out with anger, his father died in the First Sino-Japanese Naval Battle at the end of the Qing Dynasty, his mother took him from his hometown to Jinmen to escape the famine, tasted the suffering of the world, and entrusted him to the troupe, after his mother chose to commit suicide, since then Bai Yunfei has hated the Japanese to the core. After the Meiji Restoration, Japan's national strength increased rapidly, and by virtue of the victory in the First Sino-Japanese War, it seized huge benefits from China, and further developed by virtue of the looted wealth, but this ambitious neighbor was not satisfied, but accelerated the pace of invading China, and while Manchuria set off the Russo-Japanese War to seize land resources, it also quietly began to quietly infiltrate the major coastal cities.
Luo Lie said: "Do you suspect that Songxue Liangzi controlled Fang Kangwei?"
Bai Yunfei said: "At present, I have no evidence, but I have received news that a Xuanyang Society has infiltrated Jinmen, and they have started a business of arms and tobacco under my nose, I suspect that this Songxue Ryoko is a member of the Xuanyang Society." "Most of the share of these two businesses has always been controlled by Bai Yunfei, and the new tobacco and munitions flowing into Jinmen from other secret channels have attracted Bai Yunfei's attention, the cost of transporting bulk materials by land is extremely high, and the checkpoints on the way are checked, the Beiyang government is also increasing its crackdown on these smuggling businesses, the risk is extremely high, and it is most feasible to transport by sea in comparison.
Bai Yunfei controls many channels of maritime smuggling in Jinmen, of course, the Fang family still has the largest share of the port terminal, but the Fang family has always been engaged in legitimate business, so naturally there is no need to worry about competition, but if the Fang family's industry really falls into the hands of the Japanese, it will not be a good thing for Bai Yunfei.
After Luo Lie figured out the crisis that Bai Yunfei was facing, he also started to use him, although Bai Yunfei was not a good person, but if he wanted to rescue Xiao Taohong's mother and daughter, he could only use his power at present. If Bai Yunfei's speculation is true, Lan Ximei and Songxue Ryoko are the same person, and they belong to the Xuanyang Society, then her arrival is not just to occupy the Fang family's industry, the ultimate goal may be to control the entire Fang family's industry through Fang Kangwei, control the Jinmen Wharf, and use tobacco and arms to knock on the door of China.
Luo Lie secretly took a breath of cold air, thinking of the incident that happened in the Black Tiger Ridge Lingtian Fort, this possibility was extremely high. After pondering it, he said in a low voice: "I once saw Songxue Liangzi in the Wolf Tooth Village of Pale Mountain, but at that time her name was Lan Ximei! β
Bai Yunfei's expression was full of surprise, he returned to Luo Lie's side and sat down, listening carefully to Luo Lie's story from the beginning.
Luo Lie is good at figuring out people's hearts, so naturally he will not tell Bai Yunfei what happened in Pale Mountain before, and only selects the people and things he is interested in to focus on.
If Luo Lie didn't say it, Bai Yunfei wouldn't have suspected Yu Manlou at all, he would never have thought that this rookie in Liyuan, who was becoming popular, would be a killer.
After Luo Lie finished speaking, Bai Yunfei was silent for a long time before he said, "Your friends must not fall into the hands of the Fang family. β
Luo Lie nodded, raised his eyes to look at the increasingly heavy wind and snow outside, and said softly: "I need to go over, I hope I can stop him." β
Bai Yunfei said: "I'll go with you, I can guarantee his safety in Jinmen." β
Luo Lie waited for this sentence, with Bai Yunfei's intelligence, he should have guessed Fang Kewen's true identity, but fortunately, they now have common interests, Bai Yunfei will not harm Fang Kewen in the short term, and they can just use Bai Yunfei's vigilance against the Xuanyang Guild to deal with those potential enemies.
However, things did not go well, Luo Lie returned to the door of the Fang Mansion, and saw Arnold and Thursday Ping, who had become snowmen walking on the side of the road, these two were also dedicated, and waited in the wind and snow for nearly two hours, but they did not see Fang Kewen.
Luo Lie also felt a little strange after asking about the situation, Fang Kewen didn't come over, it wasn't far from the hotel he left to Fang Mansion, it stands to reason that Fang Kewen walked to the place even if he walked, but he still hasn't appeared, didn't Fang Kewen come to Fang Mansion?
Arnold took out the stainless steel flask and poured two sips of spirits, and the white steam exhaled was full of strong wine: "He didn't come." β
Luo Lie looked at the crowd that was still coming into the Fang family to mourn, there were so many people coming and going, I was afraid that Arnold would make a mistake.
Although Arnold had drunk, his mind was not confused, and he emphasized: "I and Thursday Ping have been staring at each other, as long as he comes here, he will definitely not escape our eyes." β
Zhou Ping also came up at this time, came to the window where Bai Yunfei was, nodded and called Bai Ye.
Bai Yunfei hummed, lowered the window, and whispered a few words to Zhou Ping, in fact, Zhou Ping had already gathered a lot of people, and Bai Yunfei asked him to add more. After arranging, he said to Luo Lie: "Are you interested in going to the Fang Mansion to give Old Lady Fang a stick of incense?"
Luo Lie nodded and said, "It's okay!" Just take this opportunity to go to the Fang Mansion to check if there is Fang Kewen's whereabouts.
The two cars arrived at their location, but it was Bai Yunfei's pre-arranged subordinates who arrived, all dressed in suits and leather shoes, and brought wreaths that had just been tied by the way.
Luo Lie secretly admired Bai Yunfei for his thoughtful work, and it seemed that he was ready to mourn before coming to the Fang Mansion.
For the funeral of the old lady Fang Shiming, the Fang Mansion is also heavily guarded, nominally to prevent those pervasive reporters, in fact, it is also to prevent someone from making trouble, in the eyes of many people, the Fang family is a little fuss in this matter, the old lady Fang is kind and charitable, and he is highly respected, whether it is the upper class or the poor people during his lifetime, he has a very high evaluation of him, even if it is a business opponent, he also respects the old man's character very much, and now that the old man is gone, no one will rise up to be disrespectful to him, as for making trouble at the funeral itself is a bastard thing that defies the world's condemnation, and no one who is smart will do this kind of lack of moralityγ
Although they couldn't enter the gate of the Fang Mansion, the people still organized spontaneously, and the wreaths they laid out on both sides of the gate of the Fang Mansion had filled the walls on both sides of the gate of the Fang Mansion, and the Fang family could only let it go.
The threshold of the Fang Mansion is not just anyone can enter, Fang Kangwei set a rule that the VIPs who come to the house are treated equally, and no one is allowed to drive the car into the Fang Mansion.
Mrs. Fang's mourning hall is located in the vast garden of the Fang family, Fang Shiming spent most of his later life here, since he handed over the business to his son Fang Kangcheng to take care of, he has become a simple house, rarely leaves this house, at most on weekdays is to take a walk in the yard, until Fang Kangcheng died of a sudden illness, Fang Shiming was paralyzed by a stroke due to excessive grief, and Fang was sent to the Mercy Hospital by his youngest son Fang Kangwei for treatment.
Fang Kangwei's reason is that sending it to the hospital can allow the old man to get better and more timely treatment, but in the eyes of outsiders, he always feels that this guy is suspected of unfilial piety, with the financial resources of the Fang family, he can easily hire a top medical team to take care of the old man's body at home, and why let the old man stay away from home, now that Fang Shiming has passed away, his body has finally been sent back to his hometown.
Fang Kangwei knelt in the cold mourning hall and kept thanking, as a son of man, this is his duty to fulfill, from the old man's body to the present, he has hardly gotten up next to the coffin, the physical exhaustion is still second, his smoking addiction began to commit again, kept yawning, tears and snot flowed down together, this guy really can't hold on, he can't care about the surprised eyes of the people around him, he covers his mouth and nose with a handkerchief, gets up and hurriedly leaves the mourning hall and walks to the rear residence.
Entering the door of the small building, Fang Kangwei suddenly ran to his study at a speed of 100 meters, didn't care about taking off his filial piety clothes and shoes, he climbed onto the free bed, picked up the beautifully made big smoking gun, skillfully loaded the cigarette paste and inhaled it vigorously against the oil lamp, and after swallowing a few large mouthfuls of smoke one after another, Fang Kangwei breathed a long sigh of relief, and felt a fluttering feeling from the bottom of his heart. Comfortably stretched, and let out a moan of pleasure from between his teeth. Don't ask for eternity, just take a sip, Fang Kangwei understands the true meaning of the world, people live a lifetime is not to seek satisfaction, he has done a lot of things in his life, but the four things are still not as good as one word.
When he saw his father's face just now, Fang Kangwei was indeed a little sad, and even felt a little sorry, but he forgot everything after taking these few puffs of cigarettes, he was as happy as a fairy, and I am a fairy now. How to solve the worries, there is only one draw.
Fang Kangwei was savoring the pleasure brought to him by Fushou ointment when the door was pushed open from the outside, and Ryoko Matsuyuki, dressed in a black kimono, appeared in front of him without warning. As Fang Shiming's daughter-in-law, she should have been wearing linen and filial piety, but the newly married aunt was extremely resistant to the filial piety clothes, and chose this black kimono on her own, which looked out of place in the white flowers. Fang Kangwei can only let her, although the rest of the family is unhappy, but now after all, Fang Kangwei is in charge, he doesn't say anything, and it is naturally inconvenient for others to accuse.
Fang Kangwei looked at her with some dissatisfaction: "I don't know how to knock on the door?"
