The night in spring is still a little cold, especially standing on the top floor of a high-rise building like the 42-storey metropolis, and the sound of the wind whirring can not help but shiver a little;

This is Zhuang Feng's vice, he always likes to talk about some important things and meet some important people on the roof, or just because Zhuang Feng likes to stand on the highest place in Jiangzhou and look down on the whole Jiangzhou City.

At this time, Zhuang Feng was pulling a single bench and smoking cigarettes in the wind; originally the top floor was well arranged, of course, because of Zhuang Feng's bad habits, but now it is no different from the roof of an ordinary building, it looks tattered, and there are some messy debris;

He Li squatted in the place where he could shelter from the wind, smoking a cigarette and looking at Zhuang Feng, not knowing what was going on in his head;

The time was almost up, and there was some dense footsteps at the top of the staircase, which sounded as if there were quite a few people, and in a matter of moments, it was time to reach the top of the building, and there seemed to be about a dozen men and women, more than expected;

"Do you smoke?" Zhuang Feng looked at these people, put the cigarette in his hand in his mouth, and gestured to hand the cigarette in his hand to these people, but he himself did not move;

If someone comes to the top of this building at this time, it must be frightened; for no other reason, I can only see from the media that many of the rich people in Jiangzhou are now cheering with this roof, and even the characters on the rich list; however, if you look carefully, these rich people with heads and faces are actually not the protagonists, because they stand behind some people from the top to the top of the building, and they have a taste of being in a subordinate position;

Maybe it was running to the roof of the building on a cold day to drink the wind, which was really a little unpleasant; no one responded to Zhuang Feng, just stood there and watched;

"Calling you here, just one thing, Zhuang's things, all have to be returned;" Zhuang Feng extinguished the cigarette butt in his hand and walked in front of these people, some people couldn't tell whether it was a joke or a real thing, because it looked too scoundrel, or spoke too directly;

Silence, except for the sound of the wind, so quiet that only the wind can be heard;

Most of the people present were profiting from the collapse of the Zhuang family; perhaps some of them had some friendship with the Zhuang family, but at that time, they were just little monsters, and Zhuang Feng would not even look at them squarely; now, ten years later, they are all in high positions and have huge wealth, and when you come back from Zhuang Feng, you will say that you want to take it back when you touch the upper lip and the lower mouth, so they have to hold it with both hands? There is no book to sell in the world;

Since there is no book to sell, then they will not give up their things with both hands; but the majesty of the Zhuang family presses them a little frightened; or rather, it seems that so many people have come today, but in fact there are more of them; the reason why they come is mostly because of some unclear relationship with the Zhuang family, and they have come here with their own thoughts;

"Bang" sounded in the silence, and finally startled the reaction of the crowd, and several people even took out their portable guns to face Zhuang Feng;

"The people's hearts are not ancient, and the world is declining;" Zhuang Feng seemed to have no existence at all for the gunshot, and he was still idle there;

In the silence just now, someone pulled something into his pocket, and at the same time, He Li, who was squatting in the corner to avoid the wind, raised his hand there to solve the messy guy;

Everyone reacted, and the person with the gun subconsciously took it out, but in their hearts, they thought that there was really the master who dared to do it, but no one moved on this side;

All the people present, who did not step on the corpses of others, were all masters who had seen blood, and they stood there, which seemed to be a little sparse, but He Li and that appeared, raised his hand and shot the target accurately without injuring the others, and this pistol technique was really amazing;

"Young Master Zhuang, just say what you want to do; as for the Zhuang family's things, the Zhuang family is long gone, but for the sake of how we can be regarded as acquaintances, it's not impossible for you to give you another share when you come back, but you also have to see what the current situation is;"

It was Jia Hongde who spoke, and he was also the most convincing figure among the forces in Jiangzhou City, because this old guy represented the official;

Isn't it just money for the so-called iron-clad officials who are officials for one term? In this way, there are rules; when an official takes office, then his share will naturally be given by someone; naturally, the money cannot be taken for nothing, and if the money is taken, it will naturally have to be rewarded; in this way, the person in charge of the official's share is often the representative of the official recognition and support in the local forces, that is, the so-called people of high moral integrity;

Ten years ago, the Zhuang family did not take the Jiangzhou officials in their eyes at all, although the official's share of the money was also paid according to the rules, but the Zhuang family of that year also hit the city hall; however, now is not the era of your Zhuang family, and now it has returned to the era before the Zhuang family, and all parties have to abide by the rules;

It's just the name of the so-called shadow man of the tree, this Zhuang clan is in Jiangzhou, and no one dares to offend it easily; even if it has been ten years since the Zhuang clan collapsed, but once this Zhuang style appears, the majesty cultivated by the power of the Zhuang clan can be regarded as implanted in the heart, and there are still some scruples;

Originally, in the case of Jia Hongde, when he heard the news of Zhuang Feng's return, he was really shocked into a cold sweat; however, with his skill in re-establishing the rules after the collapse of the Zhuang family, it was naturally not an ordinary person;

So, this led everyone to come, and he didn't say anything, it was an invisible pressure, but he wanted to see what Zhuang Feng was going to do; but this Zhuang Feng was still that high-minded appearance, and he didn't take everyone seriously; this made Jia Hongde unhappy and a little uneasy at the same time, but He Li's shot finally reminded him of Zhuang Feng's former murderous name, which was the master who made the child cry at night, just like his name, pretending to be crazy all day long, moody;

"Who told you that your Zhuang family is gone? This seat is not alive and well, there are no arms or legs;" Zhuang Feng is talking nonsense, but no one can refute it; because your boss Jia calls people the young master of the Zhuang family, doesn't that mean that the Zhuang family is still there; if the Zhuang family is gone, where is the young master of the Zhuang family;

"Zhuang Feng, don't pretend to be crazy there, now is not your Zhuang family's era, don't deceive people too much;" Jia Hongde couldn't help but be a little angry at Zhuang Feng's nonsense; if it weren't for his scruples that he couldn't figure out how much unknown power the Zhuang family still had, he would have killed Zhuang Feng a long time ago;

In fact, it's not just him Jia Hongde's scruples, or whether it's those who are present or those who are hiding in the shadows and watching, then he has no one who doesn't scruple; because this Zhuang clan is not just occupying Jiangzhou, at the peak of the Zhuang clan, this southwest half of the wall is under its influence; and the Zhuang clan back then was not collapsed by the forces of all parties by virtue of their ability, but because Zhuang Feng, the head of the family, suddenly disappeared, which led to the collapse of the Zhuang clan;

According to this line of thought, then how many means Zhuang still has to fall, no one present can say clearly; don't look at Zhuang Feng coming back with such a follower alone, thinking that just two of them, send a few thugs to kill them; but if you really dare to do this, then maybe something will happen; of course, in fact, someone has done it, but the result is not as good as expected; instead of having unforeseen consequences, it is better to listen to what Zhuang Feng said first, as long as you can sit down and talk, it is a good thing;

However, looking at the situation now, Zhuang Feng and Ben never thought about talking about it, so they talked nonsense there;

"You just ran errands, and you really thought you were a character;" Zhuang Feng didn't have the slightest affection for Jia Hongde;

There is no other reason, in the era of their entrepreneurship, this Jia Hongde was an official dog; Later, because of the rise of the Zhuang family, the official was completely suppressed, and this Jia Hongde came to him to talk nonsense, and the whole thing was a yellow-eyed dog, and he followed whoever was strong; not only that, but even betrayed his master back then, although Zhuang Feng finally got benefits, but he never looked at it in his eyes;

Now, this old boy is actually in that position again, which is really speechless, but, thinking about it from another angle, in fact, this old boy is still quite capable, otherwise how could he still sit in this position;

However, no matter how capable you are, even if you can sit in that position, to put it bluntly, you are not just an errand runner, and you are not qualified to talk to you;

"Shhhh......h

Just when Zhuang Feng made a silent sound, He Li, who was originally on the side, suddenly exerted his strength, and his body flashed into the crowd quickly, and with a few muffled sounds, the original few people who took out their pistols fell to the ground a little inexplicably, mixed with the cold night breeze of spring, there was a bloody smell;

Everyone present, no one is an idiot who has never seen blood, and they are all extremely sensitive to the smell of blood, plus He Li's shot, although they haven't had time to make a move, they are all aware of it;

In fact, if you want to talk about it ten years ago, who in this Jiangzhou city is not calling Zhuang Feng a madman behind his back; this slightly more normal person will not say that he kills people for no reason, even if they are people who are also ruthless characters, this killing also needs a reason and a half, like Zhuang Feng, who does not need any reason, then the whole Jiangzhou is the only one;

In the face of Zhuang Feng's unscrupulous killing on the spot, everyone present fell into silence, and even breathed a little slowly, for fear that he would make a noise and annoy Zhuang Feng, a madman;

Some difficult silences have to be broken after all;

"Young Master Zhuang, I have time to sit in the trading house;" This is Zheng Shan, a middle-aged man who has already made some fortune, looks inconspicuous, but Zhuang Feng can hear the origin of this person from his words;

According to the rules set by the Zhuang family after actually controlling Jiangzhou, the entire Jiangzhou is divided into three parts; one is the underworld partial gate, that is, the traditional Jianghu forces, mainly the violent power of the underworld, and it is also the strongest force that the Zhuang family relies on to survive;

Then the business is divided, that is, all the commercial activities, including all the legitimate industries, in the form of a trading company, all the commercial activities are included, and this part is mainly to provide funds, or the violent forces that the Zhuang clan has stored, and its main source of funds is to rely on commerce, after all, the commerce of this era is unprecedentedly developed;

Finally, there is smuggling, all smuggling channels, including ordnance, what they mainly do is to provide the Zhuang family with weapons and equipment, as well as intelligence networks, and contact forces in other places to form a larger power network;

According to the rules set by the Zhuang family back then, it cannot be said to be perfect, at least the Zhuang family relied on this to bring the southwest half of the wall into the force; some people once asserted that with the southwest half of the wall in the hands of the Zhuang family, then it only needs to be operated with heart for ten years, and it only takes ten years, then the world may be able to fight;

However, the means of the rise of the Zhuang clan are known by all parties, so that after the present ten years, there are similar forces in all states and provinces in the world, and its model is also the Zhuang model;

Of course, this is only divided from the top, and the actual operation is too complicated and too complicated, but with Zhuang Feng, who has been destined to be the head of the family since birth, he has no time to pay attention to so much, all he needs is the strength, capital and connections he needs;

Now, although Zheng Shan's words are quite simple, the meaning of these words is very clear, that is to say, he Zheng Shan is now the master of business, which can't help but make Zhuang Feng a little curious;

In the case of Jiangzhou, which is directly under the imperial capital, it is the richest place, and its business is even more developed;

It is understandable if Jia Hongde uses the official part to hold the traditional underworld in his hands; after all, no matter how strong this underworld is, it cannot resist the government, unless it is the Zhuang family of the year, or can form the model of the Zhuang family, and after ten or twenty years of operation; but the Zhuang family of that year did not only rely on the violent power of the underworld, but also the power cultivated by the three generations of their Zhuang family, that is the fundamental;

Now, the name Zheng Shan, in terms of Zhuang Feng's memory, he has never heard of this person, or at least not heard of it ten years ago, but he does control the trading company, which is really interesting;

Although there is no such person as Zheng Shan in Zhuang Feng's memory, in fact, Zheng Shan has never dealt with Zhuang Feng, but he has only seen Zhuang Feng once from afar more than ten years ago;

More than ten years ago, Zheng Shan was just a small smuggler shuttling through the northern border to buy and sell, and at that time, Zhuang Feng was hunting and playing with the so-called big men of various local families in Muzhizhou, Weixi Empire, and he also learned about Zhuang Feng's information by hearsay;

Later, due to the influence of local power changes, in fact, it was also the impact caused by the collapse of the Zhuang clan that year, so that he could not survive as a small smuggler, so he ran south and finally arrived in Jiangzhou;

At that time, Jiangzhou was in a period of chaos because of the collapse of the Zhuang family, and Zheng Shan, a small smuggler, saw the opportunity and mixed it up;

I don't know if it was really chaotic and abnormal at that time, or Zheng Shan's own ability was outstanding, and he actually had a good net worth in the stable period after the chaos, and in the following years, he finally sat on the top spot of the trading company;

At that time, a small smuggler on the northern border sat on the top spot in the business circle of a wealthy Zhili Prefecture like Jiangzhou, which also made his heart more wild;

The appearance of Zhuang Feng made Zheng Shan see opportunities or some hopes, or in other words, he had a deep understanding of Zhuang Feng over the years, and it was no longer like the hearsay at that time, but Zheng Shan's understanding over the years showed that the hearsay of that year was actually far less powerful than the real Zhuang Feng;

The ignorant are meaningless, and because they are deep, they are afraid; after knowing everything that the Zhuang family has, he Zheng Shan is just an ant that can be crushed to death at any time; he actually does not want to be an ant, or no one will want to be an ant that anyone can crush to death, so he Zheng Shan wants to be a person, to be a master;

And Zhuang Feng's sudden appearance suddenly made Zheng Shan seize such an opportunity, or with Zheng Shan's current status, in the experience of such things in the process, he mastered so many intuitions, or just a trace of unclear intuition, felt that Zhuang Feng's appearance would be his chance to really climb to the top of the pyramid;

Since he saw that Zhuang Feng's appearance was an opportunity, Zheng Shan followed to take a look and see if it was really as he understood; however, Zhuang Feng's performance did not disappoint him; let's not talk about how many unknown forces Zhuang still has at the bottom, it's just that Zhuang Feng dared to be so tough with this gang of gangsters in Jiangzhou with only one follower, and he would kill people if he turned his face, and he didn't put these so-called bigwigs in his eyes, as he had heard, this Jiangzhou belonged to his Zhuang family, and these so-called bigwigs were just slaves of their Zhuang family;

Of course, this is because Zheng Shan has not gone through the era of the Zhuang family, and he does not quite understand how deep the influence of the Zhuang family has left on these people;

"Are you?" Zhuang Feng knew that this man was not simple, but he saw ambition in his eyes, and the last thing he Zhuang Feng was afraid of was that people were ambitious, because of his own education when he was a child, his ambition was absolutely understandable to ordinary people, and it was precisely because of this that he was confident that he could control any ambitious person, because no one would have greater ambition than him;

Not only that, Zhuang Feng also likes ambitious people, because only when people are ambitious, will they be motivated, and only if they are ambitious, will they have courage;

"I, Zheng Shan, am now in charge of the operation of the trading company;" Zheng Shan's gaze at Zhuang Feng was inexplicably a little cold, as if Zhuang Feng could see his whole person through, like a prostitute without clothes;

The more this is the case, the more Zheng Shan understands that Zhuang Feng is by no means a simple person, and therefore, he cannot behave cautiously, he must behave better, and he cannot let Zhuang Feng see him as incompetent as others;

"Zheng Shan, do you smoke?" Zhuang Feng is quite satisfied with Zheng Shan's neither humble nor arrogant, at least from the performance point of view, this Zheng Shan is not the kind of villain who runs on both sides of the wind, and this is quite worthy of appreciation;

In other words, if this Zheng Shan behaves humbly and cowardly, this Zhuang Feng does not mind slaughtering him immediately; because such a villain is in charge of the trading company, it is better for him to slaughter it directly; this villain is often not welcomed, and there may be many reasons, so that people have to admit that such a villain is in a high position, but if this villain dies, no one will remember his goodness, so it is much easier to rein in the people below;

In the same way, if a person like Zheng Shan can be kept, because he has the means, then there will naturally be people who will go to him, so that only one person needs to subdue him, and then the one below him will naturally belong to himself;

Zheng Shan didn't respond to Zhuang Feng's words, but just smiled and shook his head;

"It's good not to smoke, smoking hurts your body;" Zhuang Feng lit a cigarette by himself, and handed the cigarette in his hand to He Li next to him;

Zhuang Feng didn't mind that Zheng Shan didn't have any further contact with him, but admired this person more; he said that he wanted to follow him, but he was neither humble nor arrogant, but now he didn't have more words, which showed that this person knew how to advance and retreat, and knew when and what to say on what occasions; after all, when they met for the first time, they only needed to show a little inclination, and they didn't need to say too much;

And Zhuang Feng's action of handing the cigarette to He Li, Zheng Shan also saw it, and at the same time he was thinking about who this person was, and he would let someone like Zhuang Feng light the cigarette and hand it directly to him;

With He Li's clean and neat killing just now, then it should be someone like the guards next to Zhuang Feng, but a guard-type person can let Zhuang Feng, the master, light a cigarette for him, and this person naturally accepts it, and he doesn't feel how flattered and shocked Zhuang Feng's master is to light a cigarette for him, but is more like a brother, accustomed to it;

You have to pay close attention to this person;Zheng Shan thought so in his heart,But on the surface,he was indifferent;Because tonight this matter is not over,Although he has already expressed his position,But what about the remaining people;Of course,This is also Zheng Shan's want to see how Zhuang Feng can get back what belongs to their Zhuang family,And then finally decide whether Zhuang Feng is really worth following him;
