It seems that due to the incident near Xiaonanhai in Fuxu Town late last night, the sky over the entire Fuxu Town was shrouded in gloomy haze today, and the news that the two main persons in charge of the Cao Chamber of Commerce were killed and injured all over the city, of course, these are also thanks to Lu Dachi and Aguda.

Since last night's agreement with Zhang Mingzhi, the straightforward Lu Dachi no longer remains neutral, perhaps because of Zhang Mingzhi's public oath to the bear god last night, Lu Dachi also completely sold his life for the Zhang Chamber of Commerce, and even discussed with Aguda overnight, as soon as the genius dawned, the news of Cao You and Cao Hai's deaths and injuries was centered on Xiaonanhai, and quickly spread to all corners of the city.

In the Xiyun Courtyard of Zhang's Mansion in Dongcheng, more than a dozen servants and maids were trembling and frightened outside the courtyard, even though there was still a long distance from the boudoir of the eldest lady Zhang Yurou, but everyone could still vaguely hear the quarrel in the room.

"No! This alone will not work! Ali: He's a family man! Don't say I don't agree, even if it's a father, it's impossible to agree! What's more, in my father's eyes, I will definitely not fall in love with Ali's background! Zhang Mingzhi, who had a gloomy face, shook his sleeves angrily, but Zhang Yurou, who was facing back, was not far behind, a pretty face covered with frost was full of perseverance, and a pair of beautiful eyes were even more cold, and there was no movement behind him for a long time, Zhang Mingzhi took a deep breath, frowned and turned around slowly, looking at Zhang Yurou who was already sparkling in his eyes, he couldn't help but feel soft in his heart, and his tone eased, and he sighed again, and patiently opened his mouth to explain to the other party: "Sister! You and I are not the children of the past! There are some things that can't be done entirely by nature! What's more, this is still your life's event! ”

"Just because it's my life's work, I can't compromise!" Zhang Yurou refused to show weakness at all, met Zhang Mingzhi's gaze without squinting, sneered a few times-for-tat, and a trace of hatred suddenly flashed in her eyes: "Four years ago, my father wanted to use me to marry the Cao family at any cost for the sake of the Chamber of Commerce!" The moment I boarded the ship at Fuxu Port, what did you Zhang Shouyi tell me at the beginning? ”

"I..." Hearing that Zhang Mingzhi's body was shocked, the scene four years ago appeared in his mind, when the sister and brother separated, Zhang Mingzhi stood in Fuxu Harbor, raised the slightly immature young face, facing the endless South China Sea and the dazzling morning sun on the horizon, and swore in a firm tone, Zhang Yurou, who was about to board the ship at that time, was moved to cry.

"You swore to me at the time, sister, I, Zhang Shouyi, not only want to be righteous in this life, but also to guard you! Including everything you do! No one can stop you! Looking at Zhang Mingzhi's flickering gaze, Zhang Yurou couldn't hold back the tears in her eyes anymore, and sobbed word by word to say the oath of the year, accompanied by sobbing, Zhang Yurou's expression suddenly became desperate, and even the gaze that looked at Zhang Mingzhi began to be no longer as friendly as before.

"That's right! That's what I said! Zhang Mingzhi didn't dare to look up at Zhang Yurou's gaze, he was afraid of seeing that kind of despair, so he whispered back and then fell silent, and in the whole room, only Zhang Yurou's rapid sobs remained.

"Sister!" After a long time, Zhang Mingzhi slowly raised his head, there was no longer the entanglement in his eyes, and even a smile appeared on his face, he shouted softly, walked slowly towards Zhang Yurou, opened his arms and hugged the other party tightly, his eyes flashed, and the corners of his mouth outlined a confident and resolute smile, and explained in a very calm and low voice: "It was my fault just now, I shouldn't have thought about it so much!" I should remember the oath I made back then! Not only will I keep righteousness, but I will also keep you, including everything you do! You're right, even if Ali already has a family, even if Ali is a dock coolie! In my eyes, I haven't actually regarded him as an ordinary coolie! ”

"Say no more!" After listening to Zhang Mingzhi's words, although her heart warmed again, Zhang Yurou still shook her head slowly, and after gently pushing Zhang Mingzhi away, she whispered with an extremely tired expression: "Shouyi, I'm a little tired, you go first, I want to rest for a while!" ”

"This..." Looking at Zhang Yurou, who suddenly changed in front of him, Zhang Mingzhi hesitated a little, especially when the other party couldn't see any look in his eyes, Zhang Mingzhi was afraid that the other party would do something under the excitement, so he was stunned in place, looking at the other party a little overwhelmed.

"Don't worry, I'm really tired, maybe there was too much going on yesterday." Zhang Yurou raised her eyes and saw that Zhang Mingzhi's thoughts were clear, and she forced out a smile but it looked extremely bleak, but she still stubbornly shook her head and urged the other party to leave, and in her heart, only she knew that everything that happened yesterday was indeed too much, and the important thing was that the heart in her that was eager to be relied on suddenly had a strong desire.

"Well, well!" Hearing this, Zhang Mingzhi didn't want to say anything more, more because he didn't know what to say to comfort the other party, so he nodded slightly, and then whispered with concern in his eyes: "Don't think too much, just take a good rest when you're tired!" It's a big thing, and I'm carrying it in front of you! ”

"yes, got it." Zhang Yurou nodded casually, then turned around, seeing this, Zhang Mingzhi didn't say anything more, sighed lightly, and slowly exited the room.

Full of sorrow and troubles, Zhang Mingzhi almost didn't know how he left Xiyun Courtyard, in the eyes of a group of servants and maids, it was as if he had lost his soul, but no one dared to step forward to ask the reason, and several of his subordinates only followed him from a distance.

It was already past noon, but Zhang Mingzhi hadn't eaten yet, so he walked all the way to the front hall of the mansion, and before he could enter the door, Zhang Wu shouted behind him: "Second brother! Oh no! Fuck it! That Wang's firm! What a fucking audacity! ”

"Wang's firm? What is Wang's Firm? The absent-minded Zhang Mingzhi had long forgotten what happened in the painting boat last night, frowned and asked rhetorically, looking at Zhang Wu, who was sweating profusely, he reacted in an instant, and couldn't help but ask in a deep voice with a cold face: "Is it the idea that you wanted to beat my sister in the painting boat last night?" What's wrong? ”

"That's right! That's it! Running in front of Zhang Mingzhi, Zhang Wu nodded heavily, smacked to the side, and then gritted his teeth and explained: "Damn!" Last night, the one named Ah Hu in the painting boat had us behind him! Not only did he not clean up Wang Jie's kid, but he also sent a letter to Wang's firm! All the brothers I arranged this morning were planted, and now several of them can't get out of bed! ”

"Humph! Is their Wang firm so bold? Zhang Mingzhi immediately snorted coldly, pursed his lips disdainfully, and said in an extremely arrogant cold voice: "Although our Zhang Chamber of Commerce generally doesn't do it, when it really does, it has always been someone else who stretches their necks and waits for slaughter!" How could this small Wang firm have the courage to fight back! Don't think about it, it's also the ghost that Ah Hu did behind his back last night! ”

"That's right! It's that son of a bitch! I don't know what method was used, but I persuaded the Wang firm, and now the owners of the Wang firm have become the fifth flower! Zhang Wuke was angry when he mentioned this, he made arrangements after returning to the house last night, and more than ten brothers from the house went to the Wang family firm early in the morning, but he didn't expect that it was close to noon, and the people were back, but they were embarrassed, many people still had knife wounds, and a few people were carried back, if it wasn't for the timely treatment, maybe they would have died now.

"What about the original owner of Wang's firm? And the one named Wang Jie! Zhang Mingzhi, who was already a little angry, immediately became ruthless, and ordered in a cold voice: "Send someone to the branch in the city to inform me and search for me!" Even if Fuxu Town is demolished, the original owner of Wang's Commercial Bank will be found! Tai Sui's head is groundbreaking, and he is impatient! Before tomorrow morning, be sure to find them and throw them in the South China Sea to feed the fish! ”

"I've sent my brother to inform you, and everything will be done! As long as they are still in Fuxu Town, they will definitely be able to find out if they don't come out tonight! Even if you dig three feet into the ground, you can definitely do it! In order to avenge his brother, Zhang Wu's efficiency was also extremely fast, his face was full of hatred, and he seemed to be eager to devour Wang Jie and others alive.

"Send someone to inform Aguda, ask him to tell Rudachi to send some brothers to help!" Zhang Mingzhi was also very decisive, paused for a moment and continued to add: "After all, it is the first time to do things for us, and the benefits are indispensable!" Participating brothers, twenty copper plates each! There is definite news, three through the money! ”

"Okay! I'll arrange it right away! Zhang Wu nodded without hesitation, and was about to turn around, but turned back to Zhang Mingzhi and asked: "Second brother, the matter of Xiaonanhai Painting Boat, Brother Li?" ”

"I've already mentioned it to Ali before going to bed this morning, as soon as you have news from there, just call Ali!" Zhang Mingzhi nodded lightly and reminded the other party.

"Righteousness! You're too busy, aren't you? Don't have time to come out to greet you? Hahaha! With a hearty laugh, Zhang Mingzhi and Zhang Wu looked at the door of the mansion, and were pleasantly surprised, Yang Hongwen, who was dressed in military uniform, strode over accompanied by several henchmen and guards.

"Why! It's just that your brother Yang is too elusive, right? Immediately, Zhang Mingzhi smiled and strode down the stone steps towards the other party, and at the same time smiled heartily, but asked the other party with a puzzled face: "Brother Yang, why did you come to Fuxu Town?" Got business? ”

"What's the matter?! It's not thanks to you, boy! Yang Hongwen threw the saber in his hand to his henchmen on the side, looked at Zhang Mingzhi helplessly, and explained with a wry smile: "The news that you were attacked in Fuxu is about to spread all over Guangzhou Mansion!" Uncle Zhang, Uncle Li, and my father found out, and immediately asked me to come and see you! ”

"Especially Uncle Li!" Saying that, Yang Hongwen spread a golden token in front of Zhang Mingzhi in a trick, and added with a meaningful smile: "See! When Uncle Li heard that it was the Cao family's people who were so bold, he immediately handed me the token of this Jiedu Mansion, and repeatedly instructed me that if the Cao family dared to use the army against you at will, he would ask me to mercilessly mobilize the army stationed in Dongying! ”

"Hey! It seems that when I go back this time, I have to pay good tribute to Uncle Li and his old man! Zhang Mingzhi also smiled bitterly, he didn't expect that this time the movement would be so big, and even the festival made Li Zhen speak in person.

"You kid, don't get cheap and sell well!" Yang Hongwen punched Zhang Mingzhi with a smile, shook his head and sighed: "Your kid is lucky enough!" Uncle Li is almost as good as his own son to you! ”

"Pull it down! If it weren't for Li You's lack of anger, Uncle Li would have arranged a position for him in the army! Zhang Mingzhi shook his head with a smile, and when he mentioned Li You, the son of the Jiedu envoy, a trace of disdain appeared on his face, and then he returned Yang Hongwen's punch with a smile, and refused to respond to the other party's joke with a weak expression: "You are not bad!" At this age, who in the entire Guangzhou Mansion can do the position of the general of the Jiedu Mansion? He also said that Uncle Li was good to me! I think you're cheap and good! ”

"Hahaha! Don't talk about it, I'll be relieved to see that you're okay! Yang Hongwen raised his head and laughed a few times, then waved his hand and said goodbye with a smile: "I still have to go to Dongying, and when the business is over, I will come to the house again!" ”

"What? He also said that he would stop by to see me, and he would leave before he came in! Zhang Mingzhi refused to let go of the other party, grabbed Yang Hongwen, and forced the other party to stay with a displeased face: "No!" Say nothing and can't go! If there is any business, we will deal with it in the afternoon! Drink two first! ”

"No, no, no! Not this time! Yang Hongwen's face suddenly became serious, his eyes swept around, and Zhang Mingzhi narrowed the distance between the two, and then explained in a low voice: "There is a war in the east, and the rebel thief army has already infiltrated our Lingnan East Road, I have an urgent military situation, and I really can't delay it!" ”

"Really? Sounds serious. Hearing this, looking at Yang Hongwen's solemn face, Zhang Mingzhi blinked as if he didn't believe it, but he also let go of the other party.

"Okay, I'll talk to you when I'm done! I'm leaving! Yang Hongwen was indeed in a hurry, and as soon as Zhang Mingzhi let go, he hurriedly turned around and strode away, waving his hand without looking back, as if he was afraid that Zhang Mingzhi would stop him.
