Long Zhan no longer paid attention to this stubble and asked, "Who is the best at doing business in Suzhou City?" ”

"I don't know, but those rich businessmen seem to be quite capable." Huo Conghan said.

"Rich merchants, it is impossible for these rich merchants to come to us, and even if they come, we can't believe it, it seems that we have to find someone else." Long Zhan said as he knocked on the table.

"Why look for someone else, can't we do it ourselves?" Huo Conghan asked.

"We? Who do you think will do business with us? "Long Zhan is funny.

"Aren't you doing a good job? Look at this restaurant, how good business is now. Huo Conghan still believes in Dragon War.

"No, it won't. The reason why this restaurant business is good is entirely because we have new things, not that I am very good at business, in fact, I don't know how to do business at all, I am nothing compared to real businessmen. Long Zhan shook his head slightly,

"It's just a restaurant now, and I can still stabilize it with your help, but if the business grows bigger, I don't know what to do. Business is not so simple, if you are not a master of this way, you can't control much of the industry. ”

"That'...... So, you can only invite someone? Huo Conghan wanted to confirm.

"Hmm." Long Zhan nodded,

"I'll do the matchmaking, and let the masters come to the co-ordination."

"What about me?" Huo Conghan asked.

"You're the boss, of course, just sit and count the money, don't you still want to do things?" Long Zhan said with a smile.

Huo Conghan smiled,

"I'm not idle, so it's good to do something." Long Zhan said indifferently: "It's all casual, you are the boss, you have the final say." Huo Conghan didn't say anything anymore.

Long Zhan said some prospects for the Chamber of Commerce, and Huo Conghan and Shopkeeper Huang occasionally interjected to give some opinions.

And Meng Wanlin sat on the sidelines, never spoke from beginning to end, and no one else asked her.

She was like a stranger, and the pestle was there motionless. In fact, thinking about it, she really hasn't done anything these days, she hasn't said anything, and she hasn't even talked much to Long Zhan.

Long Zhan sometimes wanted to talk to her, but she was too bored, or she was always vigilant, so the relationship between the two has always been like this, not far away.

Long Zhan felt that it was nothing, and he didn't treat Meng Wanlin as his wife, so he didn't have any psychological burden.

But Meng Wanlin is different, she doesn't want to be Long Zhan's wife, and she can't leave Long Zhan openly, under these two pressures, she really can't deal with herself.

Moreover, the dragon battle is not good or bad for her. This made her even more unable to choose, if it was a little worse, she still had a reason to leave, and if it was better, she could accept it.

But it's really hard to get this state of impartiality. She didn't actually know that Long Zhan was deliberately keeping his distance.

He is going to leave this world after all, if he has a relationship with Meng Wanlin at that time, what should Meng Wanlin do?

If it weren't for some scruples, he would have liked to divorce Meng Wanlin immediately, and then tell her to let her find something better.

But there is no way, the world does not affirm divorced women, or divorced women, as if they were broken branches and leaves.

Therefore, Long Zhan was also very distressed, he didn't know what to do with Meng Wanlin. If Meng Wanlin was almost nothing, but Meng Wanlin is a good girl.

He didn't say anything about the kindness he owed to others, and how could he have the face to drive people away. So, dragging and dragging, believing that the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, and take one step at a time.

After discussion, several people had dinner. Long Zhan took Meng Wanlin and walked back, and the rest of them also went home separately.

At this time, Long Ziqian's house had already set up a large table of wine and food, and the people invited were the same people who ate with him at the half-door yesterday.

Long Yushu took the bag and walked to the kitchen for seven days, and without saying a word, he poured it all in. For the position of the head of the family, offend a few hairy children or something.

Now that the arrow is ready to be sent, he can't help but hesitate. Next. Long Zhan got up early and saw Meng Wanlin practicing swords.

It's just that now watching her practice swordsmanship is different from before. In the past, because of his cultivation, once Meng Wanlin's speed was fast, he couldn't see any swordsmanship, and could only see a series of phantoms.

And now, he can clearly see the other party's movements. Long Zhan's hands are itchy, and he plans to compete with Meng Wanlin, since he opened his pulse yesterday, he has never really made a move, and he has been itching.

But just as she was about to act, Meng Wanlin put away her sword and walked over to this side. Long Zhan smiled: "You seem to have improved a lot. Meng Wanlin said: "It's okay." The tone was cold and cold, and it really made people have no desire to continue chatting.

"Are you going out with me today?" Long Zhan asked.

"Hmm." Long Zhan wanted to speak and stopped, but after all, he didn't say anything, turned around and went to the kitchen. After eating, the two went out together again.

As soon as I came to the half door, I saw Sha Biao running over in a hurry.

"Third Young Master, something happened."

"What's wrong?" Long Zhan's brows furrowed, not knowing what trouble there was.

"The few young ladies who came to our restaurant with the fourth prince of Long Si the day before yesterday were all poisoned. There is news that our people did it. Sha Biao said in a panic.

I thought it was something, but it turned out to be this. Long Zhan smiled: "Got it, don't worry about it." Sha Biao exclaimed: "Don't you care? The origins of those people are not simple, aren't you afraid of their revenge? ”

"You also said that those people are not simple, are they all stupid?" Long Zhan explained as he walked: "This kind of thing can be clarified as long as you investigate it casually, whether we did it or not, they will soon be able to figure it out." ”

"Then don't let the wind out, lest there be a misunderstanding." Sha Biao thinks it's better to clarify.

"No, not only not, but you can also let the wind out, saying that we did it, saying that this is the price of not following the rules of half the door." Long Zhan walked into the half door and went directly to the backyard.

Seeing that Huo Conghan was not there, he came to Ji Kai'an's door again to take a look, and saw that the latter was looking at the breathing technique, so he didn't say anything, smiled slightly, and left.

"Why?" Sha Biao was puzzled.

"Who caused those poisons, the people of those families will definitely figure it out, and they will not settle the accounts on our heads. What we have to do is to take advantage of this wind to let the people of Sioux City know that our half of the door is not easy to mess with, and if you want to come to our half of the door to make trouble in the future, you have to see if you have enough weight. "Long Zhandao.

"Didn't we say we didn't do it? So if you let the wind out like this, will it work? Sha Biao didn't understand.

"Of course it works, after those few families understand who did it, will they come out to correct the rumors? Do you dare to confess the people who really did it? Don't think about it, they will only eat coptis dumbly, and they can't say anything about their suffering. Long Zhan said: "Of course, they won't easily spill their anger on us, because it's not worth it." Sha Biao was dizzy when he heard it, as if he understood, but he didn't seem to understand.

Long Zhan didn't bother to continue to explain to him, this matter had been thought about from the beginning. So when he gave the poison to Long Ziqian, he told Long Ziqian to just push the charge on him.

Because he knew that no matter what Long Ziqian said at that time, those families would not easily believe it, and they would definitely investigate the truth.

But after the truth came out, those families would definitely not dare to mess around, because the Long family was not something they could afford to provoke, so they could only hold back this breath.

As for how the rumors spread outside, they don't have time to deal with them, or they don't want to correct them.

They can't know what the truth is, and they have to fight with half the door. This is unlikely, Banbianmen is no longer a simple restaurant, and now those who come to Banbianmen to eat are either rich or expensive, and they have Huo Ye's face.

Do they really dare to mess around? So the end result is that these people can't do anything but swallow this breath.

After doing this, Long Zhan's purpose can be regarded as accomplished, he just wanted to vent his anger to Ji Kai'an.

Although those people didn't hit Ji Kai'an, Long Ziqian's actions must have something to do with them. Therefore, Dragon Battles must also be given a certain lesson, lest they not have a long memory.

In the restaurant, after walking around, he didn't see Huo Conghan, Long Zhan asked, "What about your boss?" Sha Biao said: "The boss has gone to Qingshui Villa." ”

"Oh." Long Zhan remembered that he had already discussed the secret recipe for brewing with Ji Feiluan yesterday, and today he handed over the secret recipe to Ji Feiluan's people.

On the side of the villa, there is a strict control, and without Huo Conghan's order, no one is allowed to enter or exit, she must pass.

Long Zhan nodded, and took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Sha Biao,

"You send this to Fan's house for me, give it to Fan Yongxin, remember, it must be handed over to Fan Yongxin, you know?"

"Yes." Sha Biao took it, and then went immediately. After he left, Long Zhan said again, "Okay, let's go meet Master Long." Meng Wanlin snorted, she is now more and more interested in Long Zhan, from the past two days looking at the things that Long Zhan has done, she found that Long Zhan is becoming more and more unpredictable, and his style of acting is very different from what was rumored before.

This made her feel very confused, and she didn't understand why a person could suddenly change so much, even if he suffered a great change, he shouldn't change like this.

She didn't understand, so she wanted to stay with Long Zhan and continue to observe. The two of them went out of the door and came to Tan Ningzi's inn again, and in the next room, Long Yushu was already waiting early.

After Long Zhan entered, he smiled and said, "Lord Long got up really early, did you have breakfast?" Long Yushu's face was not very good, and he wanted to eat your mother, so he said sullenly: "Eat it." Seeing Long Ziqian who had his teeth knocked out on the side, he smiled and said, "Have you eaten the fourth son?" If you don't have teeth, it won't affect your eating, right? Long Ziqian snorted coldly, swollen his face, and turned to the side.

Meng Wanlin couldn't help but chuckle, but after seeing Long Zhan's eyes, she immediately returned to her plain face. Long Zhan found a stool to sit down, motioned for Meng Wanlin to sit next to him, and then said to Long Yushu: "Since Lord Long is sincere, then I will also keep my promise and no longer embarrass the shopkeeper." ”

"Really?" Long Yushu's face was happy, he had waited for so long, just waiting for this sentence.

"Really." Long Zhan nodded, and after seeing Long Yushu overjoyed for a moment, he said again: "But ......" The two words made Long Yushu's smile come to an abrupt end, and the two eyebrows that had been stretched out immediately wrinkled and twisted into two wet towels.

"What do you want?"

"Lord Long should know that Fan Yongxin and I have a good relationship, right? He is my dear friend and brother. Long Zhan said with a smile.

"So what?" Long Yushu sank this face.

"Gotta add money." Long Zhan said with a bite to the word.

"You ......" Long Yushu tightened his face,

"You're going back on your word!"

"Eh, eh, ......" Long Zhan pointed to Long Yushu's nose,

"Lord Long, don't talk nonsense, I'm the most honest person, how can I go back on my word?"

"Do you talk about integrity? Then let me ask you, we have already said before, why did you change your hexagram? "Long Yushu's chest rose and fell violently.

"I haven't changed my mind." Long Zhan looked innocent.

"You haven't changed your mind yet? You've already said that you're going to add money, isn't this a change of fortune? Long Yushu asked with a temperament, eager to bite the bastard in front of him.

"We were yesterday, as long as you agreed to my two requests, I won't embarrass Tan Ningzi, right?" Long Zhan said unhurriedly: "Now, I promise, I don't embarrass Tan Ningzi, where is this hexagram?" ”

"Then why are you adding money?" Long Yushu slapped the table and pointed to Long Zhan's nose.

"I said, the money was added because Fan Yongxin is my brother, and this matter is related to him, so I can't hide it from him." Long Zhan opened Long Yushu's hand,

"So, this money is for my hush money, what's wrong with that?" This...... In this way, it seems to make some sense, one yard is one yard, and it really can't be regarded as a hexagram.

But this result is no different from changing the hexagram.

"Dad, don't listen...... He...... You, he's ...... Think...... Asking for money and ...... No...... Promise. Long Ziqian's teeth leaked, and he couldn't hear clearly.

However, the meaning of Long Yushu is clear. He looked at Long Zhan and snorted angrily: "Even if you go and say it, the wood is already in the boat, and he still has no way out?" That batch of goods is in his hands, and after a long time, he will only be more miserable, and if you sell it to me now, he will at least be alive. You are his brother, so don't harm him. Long Zhan shook his head,

"Oh, Lord Long, you're really stupid. Could it be that the goods can only be sold to you? ”

"Who else else? Tan Ningzi told me that if he dared to bypass me directly to find the Fan family, I promised that he would not be able to get out of Suzhou City. If he wants me to die, he doesn't want to live. Long Yushu said domineeringly, not afraid that Tan Ningzi would go back to Fan Yongxin at this time.

"Tsk...... If you are so domineering, you deserve to be Lord Long, but Lord Long is so domineering, do your two brothers know? Long Zhan said with a smile, while picking up the teacup, poured a cup of tea into the teacup, looking at its color, it should be Qingming tea picked in Yucheng, the taste is bitter and dry, but after drinking, there is a sweet aftertaste.

This tea is very expensive and the average person cannot afford to drink it.

"Annexing the Fan family and assigning all the properties of the Fan family to your three rooms, with this help, Lord Long's chances of becoming the head of the family are much higher than those of the other two. Do you think the other two will give you your wish? Will they share the money of the two houses to sabotage this? One million can buy all the properties of the Fan family, tsk, will they pay two million? Or three million? Or higher? Long Zhan pushed the teacup in front of Long Yushu,

"Come, Lord Long, let's have tea first." Long Yushu still has the heart to drink tea now, his face is gloomy and terrifying, and he is a little hideous and distorted.

Sure enough, what you are most afraid of, you will come.

"Say!" Long Yushu grabbed the teacup, crushed it with a handful, and spilled the tea on the table.

"How much does it cost?" Long Zhan stretched out a finger,

"Ten million." Long Yushu stood up with a slap,

"Ten million. You are crazy? Do you think I can get it? ”

"I can't take it out, so ...... Why don't you find someone in the big house and the second room to help you make up? After all, it's a brother, can they help if they know about it? Long Zhan said with a smile.

"You ......" Long Yushu suppressed the fire in his body and sat down again,

"You should know that I'm not the head of the house yet, I don't have that much money in my hands, even if I sell all the things in the entire third room, I can't get it out."

"That's just as well." Long Zhan nodded, tilted his head and thought about it again,

"Or ...... Looking for someone to borrow? As the third room of the Long family, and the future head of the family, it shouldn't be difficult to find someone to borrow 10 million, right? Even if you can't borrow one, you can borrow a few more. Long Yushu pondered, thinking that it was not impossible.

After all, if this matter is done, he will become the head of the Long family in the future, let alone 10 million, even if he is 100 million taels, he can take it.

Seeing that Long Yushu was shaken, Long Zhan continued: "I heard that the few families who had dinner with Long Sigongzi last night were quite rich. ”

"Are you crazy? I've poisoned people, and you still want me to poison them? How could they lend me money? "Long Yushu wanted to scold his mother, but he actually borrowed money from someone he had pitted, can others borrow it?

If you don't fall into the well, it's good.

"That's not what I said." Long Zhan said: "It's true that Lord Long poisoned them, but aren't they okay?" ”

"Nothing? Do you know how much pain they have? They were in pain last night, rolling all over the ground, do you call it okay? Long Yushu was angry, he saw several sons and brothers screaming in pain last night, covering their chests, crying and howling.

"It's just some pain, but it's not life-threatening." Long Zhan said lightly.

"Hmph, that's because it doesn't hurt you, that's why you say something light." Long Yushu snorted coldly.

Long Zhan laughed and said, "I admit it, I really don't know what they have suffered, that's why I said these words." But what if it has come to this? ”

"How do I know?" Long Yushu replied stiffly, obviously still angry.

"It's true that those young ladies have suffered losses, but will they hate you because of this? I don't think so, they should thank you. Long Zhan said with a smile.

"Thank me?" Long Yushu sneered,

"Did you not wake up, or did I not wake up? I drugged them and put them through seven days of pain, and you think they will thank me? They didn't scold my mother behind my back, I was already burning high incense. ”

"Judging from this matter alone, Lord Long is not wronged when he is scolded. But what if it takes longer? Long Zhan dipped his fingers in a little tea and drew a long line in front of him.

"What do you mean?"

"Lord Long poisoned them, so shouldn't Lord Long compensate them? So how to compensate? Long Zhan pointed his finger in the middle of the thin line,

"Once the Fan family becomes the bag of the third room, Lord Long, you will definitely be the future head of the Long family, and the huge industry of the Long family will be in the hands of Lord Long at that time. Would Lord Long think of a few of them? Will the fourth son of Long think about the guilt of his friends, and take care of those families in the future business? Long Zhan's fingers slid down again,

"With the support of Lord Long, those people will definitely be the future rulers of the family in the future, who do you say those people will think of after they take power? Who will they thank? Long Yushu instantly understood, and Long Ziqian also showed excitement on his face, because he saw something further behind the line.

"Interests are always linked to each other, Lord Long only needs to explain the interests and disadvantages to those families, and then determine a cooperative relationship. Do you think they're going to give you the money? Even, once Lord Long becomes the head of the Long family, will those people still ask Lord Long to repay the money? Wouldn't they think it was a gift for Lord Ryu? Long Zhan slid his fingers on the table, erasing the waterline,

"Therefore, Lord Long asked them to borrow money, not to beg them, but to give them a chance. After all, there are not many opportunities to reach a cooperation agreement with the future head of the Long family, and I don't believe they will miss it. Long Yushu thought about it, as if he not only didn't have to feel guilty, but felt that he was giving alms.

As soon as the offensive and defensive momentum turns, the confidence is enough.

"There's some truth to what you're saying, but that's ...... 10 million is still a bit much. ”

"Is it much? Believe it or not, I told the people in the second room of the big house what I just said, and they were willing to give me 20 million. Long Zhan said with a smile.

"Huh, they have so much money?" Long Yushu didn't believe it.

"Since Lord Long can borrow money from those families, can't the people in the big house and the second room borrow from them? And even more well-founded. They lent money to the second room of the big house, and the second room of the big house helped them take revenge, do you think those two brothers of yours will make a move on you when the time comes? Long Zhan finished speaking, and then looked at Long Yushu's reaction.

Long Yushu's face had already changed drastically, and he was in a cold sweat. If he can be put to death, he dares to guarantee that his two elder brothers will not hesitate, let alone 20 million, even 30 million, and the two families may not give it.

"Okay, I'll give you 10 million, but you'll have to give me some time."

"Of course, you can have as much time as you want, it depends on how long Shopkeeper Tan can wait, I don't care." Long Zhan said with a smile.

Long Yushu had a tense face, he had already talked to Tan Ningzi in the morning, and knew that Tan Ningzi would not be able to wait long.

This matter must be resolved overnight.

"You wait, I'll borrow money."

"Please." Long Zhan made a gesture of please. Long Yushu didn't say a word, and went out directly, while Long Ziqian followed closely.

He also wants to go over to have a good relationship, because according to Long Zhan, his friends may be the future rulers of those families at that time.

And once he also reaches the point of competing with his brother for the head of the family, these people will become his help, and his chances of winning will be much greater.

After they left, Meng Wanlin turned her head and squinted at Long Zhan.

"What's wrong? Haven't seen a handsome guy? Long Zhan was in a good mood and teased. Meng Wanlin was stunned for a moment, then smiled, not as shy as she was at the beginning,

"It seems that you are indeed very good at lying."

"Lying? When did I lie? Long Zhan asked in surprise.

"Aren't you lying about what you just said?" Meng Wanlin asked.

"No, which one is a lie? I just gave him a little prospect, just provoked their desires, how can there be a lie? Long Zhan said with peace of mind.
