Chapter 257: Negotiation
Yan Shoucheng knocked on the table: "Second Master Huo, is this treating me as a chess piece?" I have also heard of the four major families in the hidden world, I still want to be the head of the family of other people, but I treat people as fools? I don't have to try it, I know how small the odds are. ”
"Second Master Huo pushed me to the front of the stage, you are in charge behind the scenes, if the matter is really revealed, I will be the first to suffer. With the power of the Yan family, our family's dim sum factory may not even have a single skin left. ”
Second Master Huo looked at Yan Shoucheng with interest: "Wealth and danger are sought, if you can get the position of the head of the Yan family, you don't have to worry about it for hundreds of generations in the future." ”
Yan Shoucheng shook his head: "Second Master Huo misunderstood me, I don't have much to think about, what is the head of the Yan family, I can't afford to climb high, you better ask another master." ”
For a while, the atmosphere at the scene was a little tense.
Second Master Huo's gaze wandered between Su Qi and Yan Shoucheng.
After sneering, he asked Su Qi: "Mrs. Su, you have founded the dim sum factory, since you can have the intention of looking for me to invest, don't you want to watch it grow and develop?" ”
"My investment, compared to the Yan family's property, is just a drop in the bucket, nothing more."
When Huo Erye said this, he also had a provocative mind.
And judging from Yan Shoucheng's previous attitude, Su Qi's position in his heart is still relatively important, and he should make a little sacrifice for Su Qi's sake.
However, Second Master Huo misjudged Su Qi's thoughts.
Su Ji pursed his lips and replied: "There is an old saying that husband and wife are originally the same forest bird, and I have some ideas, but in major matters, I still have the same thoughts as Shoucheng. We will strive for what is supposed to be ours, but we will not force what is not ours. Thank you Second Master Huo for valuing us so much, but we won't be involved in this matter. ”
"Husband and wife are originally birds of the same forest?" Huo Erye raised his eyes and looked at Su Qi: "If I'm not mistaken, the next sentence is to fly separately when disaster comes?" ”
Su Qi responded: "But before the catastrophe, we will still get through it hand in hand." ”
"It seems that you are determined to oppose me?"
There was a hint of threat in Second Master Huo's tone.
Yan Shoucheng turned sideways, blocking in front of Su Qi, and replied without the slightest fear: "Second Master Huo, business is not benevolent, we don't want to be enemies with you, but we are not afraid to be your enemies." If things are not negotiated, they can get along peacefully, and I hope that Huo Erye can think twice before doing things. ”
Huo Erye didn't say anything, turned around and left.
Looking at Second Master Huo's back, Su Ji couldn't help but ask, "Who is the former head of the Yan family?" ”
"I'll inquire."
In this dinner, Su Qi and Yan Shoucheng barely knew each other, and occasionally had some impressions, that is, they had read relevant reports in the newspaper.
Staying here only added to the embarrassment of the two, and after a casual stroll, the two chose to leave.
Second Master Huo's last look made Su Qi and Yan Shoucheng still a little worried in their hearts.
The two immediately decided to leave the next day.
Unfortunately, there were no tickets for the morning bus, so Su Qi and Yan Shoucheng could only choose the evening bus.
After buying a ticket home from the station, when the two returned to the hotel, they were once again asked away by the man in black.
It's just that this time the man in black is not Huo Erye's subordinate, but Yan Juntao.
Su Qi and Yan Shoucheng followed the man in black into the car, and stopped at the door of a courtyard after turning around.
The quaint courtyard house has a solemn atmosphere, and the layout of the courtyard is quite exquisite, and it can be seen that the owner of this courtyard is not an ordinary person.
Su Ji looked at it carefully with his intuition, and unexpectedly found that there was still a faint aura in it.
The man in black led the two of them to the door of a room, and reported with his head bowed, "Director, someone has brought it." ”
"Come in."
The man in black opened the door and let Su Qi and Yan Shoucheng enter.
As soon as the two stepped in, the door was shut.
Su Ji looked around, the railings in the house were all ancient wood carved with patterns, and there was a shelf standing in front of it, with all kinds of porcelain, and the porcelain was surrounded by aura.
Sure enough, everyone has a heritage.
Yan Juntao stretched out his hand and asked Su Qi and Yan Shoucheng to sit down opposite.
Yan Juntao didn't speak, looking at Yan Shoucheng.
And Su Qi and Yan Shoucheng's eyes also fell on Yan Juntao.
After staring at each other for a long time, Yan Juntao was slightly surprised that Yan Shoucheng and the two of them could withstand the pressure of themselves for so long.
opened his mouth and said, "I take the liberty of inviting you two here, forgive me." ”
Yan Shoucheng replied unceremoniously: "If you were really presumptuous, you wouldn't let us come." ”
A trace of anger flashed across Yan Juntao's face.
Yan Shoucheng leaned back and glanced at Yan Juntao with low eyebrows: "If there is anything, just say it." ”
"What kind of cooperation have you reached with Huo Zhenlong?"
Yan Shoucheng asked rhetorically: "What kind of cooperation do we have, and what does it have to do with you?" ”
Yan Juntao's eyes were full of disdain: "You are from a rural background, it is not easy to have your current achievements, don't ruin yourself because of a thought." ”
Yan Shoucheng snorted coldly: "You powerful people are all this virtue? I am not as powerful as you, but that doesn't mean I'm at your mercy. ”
Yan Shoucheng's palm flipped over, and his spiritual power turned into a whip and threw it at Yan Juntao.
Yan Shoucheng's control of spiritual power is now handy, and the spiritual whip deviated and landed on the back of the chair behind Yan Juntao, and the back of the Nanmu chair cracked a big crack.
"It's better to settle the grievance than to settle it, presumably Director Yan doesn't want to be our enemy."
Yan Juntao's contempt in his heart put away: "Which family elder are you?" ”
Yan Shoucheng restrained his aura: "I am an idle person, and I can't count any family. ”
Looking at Yan Juntao's ever-changing face, Yan Shoucheng said impatiently: "If you have any contradictions with Second Master Huo, you can solve them yourself, don't pull me into the water, I just want to live in peace." ”
Yan Juntao suppressed the shock in his heart and said: "Our Yan family does have an insoluble contradiction with Huo Zhenlong, I invited the two of you here today, and I also want to make it clear to the two of you, don't be deceived by Huo Zhenlong, and be the cannon fodder for our fight." ”
"Got it!"
Yan Shoucheng raised his attitude, and Director Yan's face was still respectful.
"The two of you have such great power, and our Yan family doesn't want to be your enemy. If the two of them don't dislike it, our Yan family is willing to ask the two of us to be our family elders, and from now on, all the forces of the Yan family can be sent by the two of them at will. ”
"Not interested."
Yan Juntao smiled wryly: "You are a casual cultivator, and you may not understand some rules." ”
"All casual cultivators must be admitted to the Spiritual Retreat and accept the unified jurisdiction of the Spiritual Retreat, and the four major families are the four major members of the Spiritual Retreat, while the other families are dependent on the four major families to survive. Loose cultivators like you, after joining the club, you also need to find a family to protect you, otherwise you will be hunted down and killed until you are wiped out. ”
Yan Shoucheng's eyes narrowed, and his eyes were full of fierce light.
Yan Juntao was not afraid of him: "Before today, I didn't know that you had such great ability, I just wanted to remind you to stay away from Huo Zhenlong." Our family cultivates spirituality, and we value merit more, and we don't want you to become pawns in the fight between the two families. ”
"I'm fortunate to know your details today, and I'm willing to invite you to join our Yan family, mutual benefit, and it's also a good thing, isn't it?"
In order to show his sincerity, Yan Juntao did not force the two to make a decision now, bowed his head and wrote a few words on a piece of paper, and pushed it to Yan Shoucheng: "This is my contact information, you can tell me at any time if you have a decision." ”
Yan Shoucheng picked up the paper, got up and left with Su Qi.
The two went out, and the man in black stopped the two of them directly, and Yan Juntao gave an order, and the man in black left with the two people.
The car stopped at the door of the hotel lobby, the man in black left, and Su Qi glanced at each other and went straight upstairs.
When they arrived at the entrance of the building, Su Qi and Yan Shoucheng sensed that something was wrong.
Walking to the door of his room with his heart, Su Ji knocked on the door.
"Here it is".
Second Master Huo's voice sounded, and Su Qi and Yan Shoucheng glanced at each other.
Immediately, the door was opened, and Huo Erye stood against the door frame: "Why did you come back?" I've been waiting for a long time. ”
Behind Huo Erye, Zhao Xiaofeng was sitting on the side, with a lot of novel toys on the bed, and Tuan Tuan was having fun.
Zhao Xiaofeng responded: "He said that he was your friend, and he has been waiting for you for a long time." ”
Tuan Tuan happily raised his head and called "Mom and Dad", lowered his head and continued to play his game.
Yan Shoucheng's eyes darkened: "Let's go next door and talk about something." ”
When he arrived at the next room, Huo Erye swaggered on the chair, lit a cigar, and looked at Yan Shoucheng with a playful expression.
"Your son is raising well, I don't have a child yet, do you want to recognize a godfather?"
Huo Erye's successive operations challenged Su Qi's bottom line, and replied angrily: "I can't climb high." ”
Yan Shoucheng sat down opposite and asked directly, "What does Second Master Huo want?" ”
Huo Erye didn't answer and asked: "I see that the person who sent you back today is a little familiar, who is it?" ”
There was no need for Yan Shoucheng to answer, Huo Erye himself made it clear: "Is it Yan Juntao?" ”
Yan Shoucheng's face was calm, waiting to see what kind of demon Huo Er Ye was going to do.
Su Qi's fists tightened, knowing that he had erased all his memories in the first place.
Second Master Huo smiled angrily: "Let me guess what Yan Juntao told you?" He must say that I am not a good person, and that he wants you to stay away from me. ”
"What else did he say? You should have also asked me if I had reached a cooperation with you. ”
"I'm so interested, he must want to work with you too."
After that, a trace of ruthlessness flashed on Second Master Huo's face, and he asked: "When I asked you, you refused directly, and now you turn around and cooperate with Yan Juntao, am I not giving you enough benefits?" ”
Su Qi flatly denied it: "We have already said, what grievances between the two of you are your business, don't have anything to do with us." ”
Huo Erye smiled: "I want to make it clear, it's too late." What about me, the meaning is very clear, if you want to live in peace and stability, let's cooperate, and when I get what I want, I will let you go, how about it? ”
Yan Shoucheng hated this feeling of being threatened, and looked at Huo Er Ye with gloomy eyes: "People like you are really exactly the same hate, we won't cooperate with you, and naturally we won't cooperate with him." Just because we're weak doesn't mean we can't do anything. ”
Both of them denied it, and Huo Erye couldn't help but want to tear off their disguises: "Without cooperation, I'm not a good person, Yan Juntao is a hypocrite, if you are not their people, why would he let people send you back and be so respectful to you." I'm not a fool. ”
Yan Juntao made his subordinates respectful, which was nothing more than a fancy to Yan Shoucheng's spiritual power.
Whether Yan Juntao is a hypocrite or not, Yan Shoucheng is still uncertain, but Huo Erye is a real villain.
This is also why, for Huo Erye's coercion and temptation, Yan Shoucheng only refused with righteous words, and did not dare to reveal his spiritual power at all.
It was inconvenient to reveal the inside story, Yan Shoucheng could only pinch his nose and admit that he had made friends with Yan Juntao.
Yan Shoucheng's reaction made Huo Erye believe that his guess was not wrong.
The smile on his face became even more gloomy, and Yan Shoucheng asked, "What do you want us to do?" ”
"Those who know the times are Junjie", Huo Erye didn't beat around the bush and said his requirements: "Since you have reached a cooperation with Yan Juntao, I will not force him to turn his face with you, but every transaction between you and him must be explained clearly to me." ”
Yan Shoucheng suddenly understood.
From taking himself to the dinner, Huo Erye was in the layout.
A face that is exactly the same as the previous head of the Yan family will inevitably attract Yan Juntao's attention.
If this person was introduced by Huo Erye, Yan Juntao would be even more interested.
At the dinner that day, Huo Erye talked to himself openly, and he also did it for Yan Juntao to see, so that Yan Juntao thought that he and Huo Erye were on the same front, so he was invited to talk today.
What Huo Er Ye wants is to break into Yan Juntao's interior by himself and let himself be his undercover agent.
When he came to the door today, Huo Erye's meaning was also very clear, he was under his control, if he was disobedient, then the children and his wife would become victims.
This kind of person who mixes in a complex environment when he is a child is full of scheming every step he takes.
Yan Shoucheng suppressed the hatred in his heart and said, "Yes." ”
Yan Shoucheng's sudden agreement made Huo Er Ye a little suspicious if there was a ghost in it.
Yan Shoucheng suddenly laughed: "This is not the answer that Second Master Huo is looking forward to, how do I feel that you don't seem to be particularly welcome?" ”
Huo Erye weighed the authenticity of Yan Shoucheng's promise in his heart.
He replied: "I like to deal with smart people like you, don't worry, as long as you obediently do what I ask, your son will be my son in the future, and I will never treat him badly." ”
Yan Shoucheng stood up and ordered the eviction: "Since Second Master Huo got what he wanted, then please leave, our family has to rush home in the afternoon." ”
In Huo Erye's opinion, Yan Shoucheng's move was annoyed and embarrassed after being helpless, and after laughing, he didn't care, and left after carrying his back.
Walking to the door, Huo Erye suddenly turned around, looked at Yan Shoucheng, and left a sentence: "There are two bodyguards left at the door, they will be responsible for protecting you in the future, don't let me down." ”
