Chapter 57: Mutation
The torrential rain was heavy and did not seem to show the slightest sign of abating;
Where Zhuang Feng and Tang Guiyi sighed about the unpredictable fate, they couldn't help but feel a little silent;
"How have you spent all these years?" Zhuang Feng broke the silence and asked aloud;
"Try to prove yourself;" Tang Guiyi untied the knot in his heart, talking about himself over the years, a casual appearance;
"I still have to work hard, I can't win Shaozhou for ten years, I really have to work hard;" Zhuang Feng said half-jokingly;
Zhuang Feng seems to be joking, but what he said is also the truth;
At that time, Zhuang Feng was the first to swallow Shaozhou, and he had already destroyed Shaozhou's inherent power; with the disappearance of Zhuang Feng, Shaozhou, like other states, formed a vacuum of power;
It is always easier to rebuild on the ruins than to break it first, even so, Tang Guiyi has not been able to fully control Shaozhou in ten years, which really needs to be worked on;
"It's not as good as you who are the masters, the upper lip and the bottom of the mouth just touch, what you want, people have to give it, how like me, you have to do everything yourself, tired life;" Tang Guiyi looked at Zhuang Feng's joking appearance and said there;
Tang Guiyi naturally understood the truth of everything Zhuang Feng's jokes, but Tang Guiyi was too conceited in the past and didn't think about it more;
"What have you been doing all these years?" Zhuang Feng lit a cigarette, listened to Tang Guiyi's words, and said with a smile there;
"At that time, I left you, and at the instigation of the old man's help, I did something wrong, and then I have been hiding in Shaozhou;
Zhuang Feng listened to Tang Guiyi's words easily, but it was actually very difficult; in the ten years that Zhuang Feng had been missing, Zhuang Feng himself knew how chaotic it was outside, and he also knew what kind of bloody struggle it was to fill the power vacuum;
It's just that Zhuang Feng looked at Tang Guiyi's light understatement, knowing that Tang Guiyi was reluctant to mention those things, Zhuang Feng also expressed his understanding, who has nothing to say about this person, even to the closest people, there are some things that can't be said;
Since Tang Guiyi didn't want to talk about this topic, Zhuang Feng would not be reluctant, just smiled and didn't say anything;
"There's no smoke, let's go;" Zhuang Feng said after smoking his last cigarette;
"Hmm;" Tang Guiyi squeaked;
Maybe Tang Guiyi didn't want to stay here for a long time, with such a heavy rain, only a madman like Zhuang Feng would like to be drenched;
Zhuang Feng looked at Tang Guiyi and probably knew that no one would like to get drenched in the rain like Zhuang Feng himself;
Zhuang Feng smiled, took off the clothes that were on the bamboo girl, and wanted to wring them out, but the strength in his hand was a little weak, and he twisted it, but it didn't seem to have much effect, so he gave up, threw away his clothes, and took two steps to keep up with Tang Guiyi;
"Let's sing a song;" Zhuang Feng hurriedly followed Tang Guiyi and said a word beside him;
"Swallowing the wind and kissing the rain and burying the sunset......" Tang Guiyi listened to Zhuang Feng's words and howled there;
"Haha, it's still so ugly;" Zhuang Feng laughed with Tang Guiyi's ghostly wolf howl;
Tang Guiyi didn't hear it, he howled somewhere;
Zhuang Feng looked at Tang Guiyi, who seemed to feel good about himself, and howled with Tang Guiyi there;
In the rainstorm, Zhuang Feng and Tang Guiyi howled songs that no one could hear or understand;
When the two brothers Zhuang Feng and Tang Guiyi howled in the rainstorm, Jiangzhou was also pouring rain;
Wu Hui was standing in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window in her office on the top floor of the trading company, quietly looking out the window at the city shrouded in heavy rain, not knowing what she was thinking;
"Mr. Wu, the people have arrived;" Just as Wu Hui was quietly admiring the rainstorm, Wu Hui's assistant pushed open the door and said loudly at the door;
Following the assistant's words, Wu Hui turned around and nodded with the assistant, and then the assistant retreated again, and then led a man into Wu Hui's office;
"Mr. Wu;" the man walked into the office, and after the assistant withdrew, he stood respectfully and said;
"How is it?" Wu Hui asked aloud as she looked at the respectful man;
"Ready;" the man said directly;
Wu Hui opened the drawer of the desk, took out a folder from it, threw it on the table casually, and said loudly: "Go;"
"Yes," said the man, still respectfully, as he walked over to the desk and picked up the folder, and then went straight away;
"Brother, don't blame me;" After the man left, Wu Hui sat on the chair and said to herself;
Wu Hui casually raised her left hand, as if to check the time, then stood up and walked to the window again;
The rain was too heavy to see the situation outside, and I could vaguely see that there were several black commercial vehicles parked in the square of the metropolis in the distance, and a lot of people got out of the car in raincoats and rushed straight to the door of the metropolis;
Wu Hui looked expressionlessly, not quite like a qualified passer-by watching the excitement, not even a little curious expression;
Wu Hui has been with Zheng Shan for almost ten years, from the daughter of the commissary owner to the president of the trading company today, Wu Hui naturally has changed, or people are not willing to lose what they have gained;
After Zheng Shan got the trading company, Wu Hui was pushed to the front desk to become the president of the trading company; this is also the practice left by Zhuang Feng back then, there must always be a person who has to face the public, and there is naturally a controller behind him;
With Zheng Shan actually controlling the trading company behind her back, Wu Hui has no opinion; after all, the daughter of the commissary boss is now the president of the trading company, and it was completely given to her by Zheng Shan, but what is Xiaoyu;
Zheng Shan gave up control of the trading company, and Wu Hui's heart was alive; she not only wanted to be the president on face, but also the actual controller of the trading company;
Although Zheng Shan persuaded Wu Hui, Wu Hui and Wu Hui couldn't listen to him, or in the two or three months before Zheng Shan left the trading company and before Xiaoyu arrived, Wu Hui finally understood what power was, which was far more pleasant than just looking for face;
Especially Xiaoyu, a little girl in her twenties, actually rode on her Wu Hui's head inexplicably, which made Wu Hui extremely annoyed, and in that anger, Wu Hui made a decision;
Zheng Shan and Wu Hui talked about Zhuang Feng and warned Wu Hui not to do anything out of line, but in Wu Hui's view, Zhuang Feng is outdated; in the present and now, where is the so-called morality of the previous era, this is an era of success or failure in money, as long as there is enough money, it will naturally have the strength that Zheng Shan said;
Wu Hui's opinion is right, and she Wu Hui has an astronomical amount of money in her hands, so naturally there will be people who are willing to sell her life to Wu Hui;
Following Zheng Shan for so many years, Wu Hui naturally has her own connections in the rivers and lakes, and with the addition of money to open the way, Wu Hui will soon have someone to die for her;
The torrential rain was still ongoing, and Wu Hui looked at the metropolis towering in the rain, very quiet;
The metropolis is not as quiet in the rainstorm as it can be seen from Wu Hui's angle, and there is a chaotic battle going on in the metropolis at this time;
Liu Jie was in Zhuang Feng's office, handling affairs as usual, when suddenly the alarm sounded;
"What's going on?" Liu Jie asked with a frown;
"Someone has entered the emergency passage;" Shu Mingbo, who was in charge of security, looked at the monitoring system and said there with some seriousness; without waiting for Liu Jie to react, he continued to say there: "The elevator was destroyed and lost control;"
Since Zhuang Feng returned to the metropolis, according to the previous practice, the facilities and equipment on this entire floor of Zhuang Feng have returned to their original appearance;
Zhuang Feng's office is not connected to the rest of the metropolis, and has a dedicated elevator and emergency access, which will trigger an alarm if someone enters without authorization;
"Come prepared;" Liu Jie listened to Shu Mingbo's words, frowned tightly, and seemed to be talking to himself, then made a decision, and said loudly: "Inform Mr. Meng and Zhao Yi;"
While speaking, Zeng Jianping and Gai Hongtao had already taken out the phone to contact Meng Yuanhua and Zhao Yi;
"Nanyuan has been attacked;" Zeng Jianping said there, and the phone in his hand was not hung up;
"Zhao Yi was blocked in the dynasty;" Gai Hongtao said almost in and out of Zeng Jianping;
"Let them meet at the emergency point in Xicheng;" Liu Jie listened to Zeng Jianping Gai Hongtao's words, and was obviously stunned for a moment, and said loudly;
Zeng Jianping and Gai Hongtao immediately conveyed Liu Jie's words there, got the other party's reply, and explained to Liu Jie;
"Let's go;" got the reply, Liu Jie no longer hesitated;
Following Liu Jie's words, Shu Mingbo, Zeng Jianping, Gai Hongtao and others immediately moved, calling the guards to act;
Liu Jie, Shu Mingbo, and the four of them led the guards left behind in the metropolis to carry their weapons and walk towards the emergency channel;
Although someone entered the emergency passage, Liu Jie and the others did not escape, but killed them;
Liu Jie and the others entered the emergency passage according to the standard procedure, and they exchanged fire with the intruder before they could go down a few steps;
Today's Zhao Yi is a spring breeze proud, but whoever has Zhao Yi's dog luck will also be proud;
The lobby manager of a metropolis, although he is also a figure of the elder brother on the road, but looking at Jiangzhou, there are not too many so-called elder brothers;
An ordinary elder brother character suddenly jumped up and became the town lord boss in the central district; this is enough to make people's eyes hot, where did you ever think that in the blink of an eye, then Zhao Yi will become the chief helmsman of Jiangzhou, so the people in the rivers and lakes are no longer hot;
People are like this, if someone is only a little better than you, or almost the same, and then suddenly promoted, it will definitely cause others to be jealous, and there will be some yin and yang weird words behind the scenes;
However, when this person goes one step further, then the jealousy at this time will evolve into envy, and there will be no yin and yang weirdness, but can only lament the unfairness of his fate, and then follow to tie the knot;
Just like a colleague in a company who was originally at the same level was suddenly promoted to department head, then those colleagues will have the so-called envy, jealousy and hatred, and there will be some yin and yang weirdness when they turn their backs.
Then, when this person is suddenly promoted from department head to general manager, then those colleagues will naturally make a change, no longer envy and hatred, but only envy, no more jealousy or hatred;
Because he has become a height beyond their reach, and has the power to decide their money, at this time, the original colleagues will only do one thing, that is, to stutter, hoping to be promoted;
People's hearts are like this, and so is Zhao Yi; Originally, when seizing the central region, there were still some people who were unwilling to cooperate, of course, Zhao Yi also relied on his own ability to recapture the central region; and then he was mentioned by Zhuang Feng to the position of the chief helm of Jiangzhou, what Zhao Yi said at this time, it became the words of the eldest brother, and no one dared to talk to Zhao Yi there in a weird way;
Similarly, Zhao Yi is also a person, although he has stayed in the metropolis for a few years because of his emphasis on friendship, but this person always likes to go to high places, and now that he is in a high position, Zhao Yi is naturally full of spring breeze;
Although Zhao Yi is now the helmsman of Jiangzhou, this territory is still a little worse, or it is just the Nancheng in the hands of Jia Hongde;
It's the season of rainstorm again, Zhao Yi is not in the mood to feel any feelings like love in the rain, but after getting Xiaoyu's analysis of Jia Hongde, he immediately recruited people to make a plan against Jia Hongde;
"Master Hong, tell me;" Zhao Yizheng stayed in the office of the dynasty night market, discussing the matter of Jia Hongde with Zheng Xingbing, Wang Puhong and others;
"In terms of the current situation, since Jia Hongde has the intention of retreating, I don't think there is a need to push too hard, you can take advantage of Mr. Zhao's current prestige, slowly encroach, and at the same time spread the news that Jia Hongde is ready to run away, depending on the situation, and then take Nancheng in one fell swoop;" Wang Puhong said calmly with the thought there;
"I agree with Hong Ye's statement, now the main hall does not have the extra strength to support us, if we only rely on the manpower in our hands now, and directly clash with Jia Hongde, then the casualties will be a bit large;" Zheng Xingbing also echoed Wang Puhong's words;
"I know what you said, that old man Jia really has some ability, and he quietly gathered a group of people; this is the case in the rivers and lakes, as long as there is strength in his hands, and someone has weapons in his hands, he is a master; don't look at Jia Hongde's intention to retreat, but this matter drags on, and he always feels uneasy;" Zhao Yi said there;
Zhao Yi's words, Wang Puhong and Zheng Xingbing also understood; as the eldest brother of the rivers and lakes, if you don't eat it yourself, the small one will also be eaten; although Jia Hongde intends to retreat, the strength in his hands is not bad; if Jia Hongde can't stand the interests of the people below, this southern city will be a mess;
That kind of chaos is what Zhao Yi and they don't want to see, and it's not what Zhuang Feng wants to see;
If you don't fight with Jia Hongde, wait for Jia Hongde to retreat, then there is a pass that will change later;
Just as Zhao Yi and Wang Puhong and Zheng Xingbing were discussing with the others how to solve Jia Hongde's problem, suddenly a person walked in from outside the door and said: "A group of people suddenly came out of the door, and they shot and attacked us without saying anything."
Zhao Yi and Wang Puhong and Zheng Xingbing glanced at each other, and they were all a little surprised in their hearts, but before they could ask, the man continued: "It looks like Boss Jia's person;"
"Night, we are still hesitating here, everyone is knocking on the door, go, tell the brothers to the guys;" Zhao Yi was the first to react, and rushed up with hatred there;
Wang Puhong and Zheng Xingbing listened to Zhao Yi's words, and they were also stunned in their hearts, is this Jia Hongde crazy or what, he dares to do it first?
It's just that this person has called, and Wang Puhong and Zheng Xingbing don't have the heart to think more, so let's get past the current level first;
Zhao Yi, Wang Puhong, Zheng Xingbing, and the three of them led people to rush out of the door, and as soon as they came out of the office, the gunshots outside were a violent sound; this is to blame that the sound insulation effect of this office is too good, and the fighting outside is so fierce that the sound can not be heard;
Zhao Yiwang Puhong and Zheng Xingbing took a look at the scene outside, and suddenly a thought welled up in their hearts, that is, Xiaoyu said wrong, Jia Hongde and Ben were not going to retreat, but to turn the tables, otherwise so many people would be dispatched;
At the same time, Liu Jie's call arrived, and when he heard what the other party said, Zhao Yi's heart was also sudden, he was also about to call Liu Jie, who would have thought that something had happened to the metropolis;
The situation was critical, Zhao Yi, Wang Puhong, and Zheng Xingbing didn't have any extra thoughts to think about anything else, and they all joined the melee with weapons;
In Nanyuan, Zheng Shanzheng was discussing some money with Meng Yuanhua;
Now there are too many places that need money, Zhuang Feng needs money for Zheng Xingbing to rebuild the flank, Wang Puhong needs money to reconcile the relationship between all parties there, and so many fields under Zhao Yi's hands also need money to invest;
As a big brother in the rivers and lakes, don't think that the younger brother below is fooling around with you, you have to give money;
Generally speaking, after a night party, each younger brother has to give at least some tips for a night, not a lot, generally two or three hundred yuan, those who watch casinos, and those who guard the side door and semi-legal ones also have to give; there are also dry negotiations and the like, which also have to give money every time; other prostitutes who sell buns, these have to be given;
In addition to these random tips from time to time, a sum of money must be paid to the following people every month, which is relatively fixed; of course, the monthly income is also extremely considerable; at least when Zhuang Feng was only one of the four major families in Jiangzhou, the daily income was as high as nine figures;
Zheng Shan also had some feelings about this, he Zheng Shan looked at it as a business group as big as a trading company, and it would be a big business for him to make a nine-figure business;
Of course, this is just income, not pure profit, but this profit also made Zheng Shanpo sigh there, this profit is not known how many times higher than the trading company that looks infinitely beautiful;
Zheng Shan became the chief financial officer of Zhuang Feng, and he was also exposed to many things that he had not been exposed to before, and he also understood the gap between himself and Zhuang Feng, which is one of the reasons why Zheng Shan was willing to completely abandon the power he controlled the trading company;
Compared with the money in his hands when he controlled the trading company, the money that Zheng Shan can control now is far higher than when he was in the trading company;
Now Zhuang Feng has Meng Yuanhua's entire four districts of Beicheng in his hands, plus the two districts of Xicheng, and the central district directly under him; seven of the nine districts of Jiangzhou City have been returned to the governor's hall where Zhuang Feng planted the flag, and the natural finances have also been in the hands of Zheng Shan;
Zheng Shan looked at the daily income figures, and often sighed that the income of the trading company was really not very popular;
Zheng Shan just sighed by himself, and also understood that in fact, the income of not a trading company was a little unattractive compared to the income of the rivers and lakes;
The cost of a trading company is nothing more than the cost of maintaining relationships in various aspects, the salaries of employees, plus taxes and fees, and there is no more expenditure in addition to it.
For example, the expenses of those younger brothers under his hands are far more than ten times the salaries of the employees of the trading company, as well as the settling-in allowance for the younger brother's life, the wear and tear of weapons, and the maintenance costs of various aspects of the relationship with the trading company;
Compared with the two, the income of the trading company is not as good as that of the rivers and lakes, but the cost is less; the income in the rivers and lakes looks very high, excluding expenses, the remaining profits compared with the trading companies, although it will be much higher, but it can also be regarded as the acceptable range of Zheng Shan;
If the profits of the rivers and lakes are more than ten times higher than that of the trading company, then Zheng Shan will definitely not go to business again, but run to be a gangster;
But that's just it, Zheng Shan already knows the strength that Zhuang Feng has, and he also knows that he Zheng Shan can complete the regret in his heart by himself, without Zhuang Feng's help, then don't think about it anymore;
Knowing the strength of Zhuang Feng, Zheng Shan is also more loyal;
Zheng Shan understood, did his work seriously, and actively cooperated with Meng Yuanhua;
Xiaoyu has been here for a short time, and there are many things to learn, so every time Zheng Shan deals with Meng Yuanhua, Xiaoyu is also learning on the side;
"Brother Li still needs two thousand in cash, and this one will be sent immediately;" Meng Yuanhua said;
"No problem, I'll send it away at noon;" Zheng Shan responded to Meng Yuanhua and did his own thing;
Zheng Shan became the chief financial officer of the Governor's Hall, and all the private forces he had originally raised were now used as escort security;
"Ah Bing's flankers, the ice consumption will increase in summer;" Meng Yuanhua continued to deal with the affairs at hand;
"The budget is out, you sign it, and you will immediately transfer it to the guards;" Zheng Shan also looked serious;
Xiaoyu didn't say much and looked at Meng Yuanhua and Zheng Shanhe who were dealing with these complicated and trivial affairs, and they were also serious about learning;
"Sister Hua, if you're in trouble, you and Mr. Zheng and Xiaoyu will avoid it;" Just as Meng Yuanhua was dealing with those complicated and trivial affairs there, Xu Wei suddenly broke in and said there;
"What's wrong?" Meng Yuanhua asked aloud;
"Unknown power, attacking Nanyuan;" Xu Wei responded to Meng Yuanhua;
Meng Yuanhua frowned at Xu Wei's words, and Zheng Shan and Xiaoyu also had doubts;
In terms of today's situation, it seems that there are really no people who dare to find trouble with Zhuang Feng in Jiangzhou;
But judging from what Xu Wei said, it seems that the unknown power is not something that Nanyuan's existing guard force can stop;
In this way, it was a premeditated attack;
"Inform Liu Jie and Zhao Yi;" Meng Yuanhua thought for a moment and said aloud;
With Meng Yuanhua's words, Zhou Xilin suddenly broke in and said without pause: "Liu Jie and Zhao Yi have an accident;"
