Chapter 194: Attack
The banquet began, and the guests took their seats.
Lu Yunzhou's grandfather in this life, Tang Marquis Qi Hongye, was also helped out of the back hall. Today's Qi family banquet is very important, so even the old man who has already relieved the burden of the patriarch and retired in the mansion has appeared.
Seeing Qi Hongye appear, the guests all stood up respectfully, saluted respectfully, and said, "Lord Tanghou is well!"
Qi Hongye is definitely a legendary figure in the Qi State, if he hadn't led the Lai people to support Tiandan's restoration of the country, the Qi State would have ceased to exist.
Therefore, although Qi Hongye is a Lai, he has been respected by all Qi people.
Qi Hongye slowly sat down on the main seat, and said with a smile: "The old man is just idle today, come and join in the fun, you don't have to be polite, sit down!"
Qi Hongye is already a handful of years old, his hair is gray, he is old, and his movements are slow, but his eyes are still shining, not cloudy at all, and he smiles, giving people a feeling of good spirits.
Qi Hongye seems to be an ordinary old man now, but no one in the guests present dares to be disrespectful to him, just because everyone knows that Qi Hongye is definitely the most respected person in Tiandan's life, and there is no one!
Of course, there are always accidents in the world, as long as there are enough interests to drive and be willing to cut off, the puppet can pull the emperor off the horse.
Just as all the guests sat down, one of the guests still stood abruptly in place, and also saluted Qi Hongye from afar.
Lu Yunzhou was sitting in the second seat on the left at the moment, diagonally opposite the guest, at this time everyone had already sat down, and he was standing alone, naturally eye-catching, Lu Yunzhou noticed this person at a glance.
I saw that this person was in his forties, with sallow skin, a black mole the size of a bean at the corner of his mouth, and a professional smirk on his face all the year round, with loose skin and many folds.
Seeing this person's abrupt move, the guests in the hall immediately began to discuss.
"Isn't this Boss Fei of the Drunken Immortal Building?"
"What is Boss Fei going to do when he suddenly stood up?"
"I don't think he looks like he wants to celebrate his birthday, but like he wants to provoke, Fei Huan is Zhongsun Long's person, could it be that Zhongsun Long instructed him?"
“......”
Many of the guests present knew Fei Huan, and their whispering voices reached Lu Yunzhou's ears.
Lu Yunzhou was slightly stunned, remembering that before the banquet, Uncle Qi Jing introduced all the guests of the dinner to himself, this Fei Huan is the owner of Linzi Restaurant-Zuixianlou, and Zuixianlou is Zhongsunlong's industry, this Fei Huan is naturally Zhongsunlong's person!
Qi Hongye has already said please take a seat, even if Fei Huan wants to celebrate his birthday at the moment, according to normal etiquette, he should first follow the wishes of the main family, and then find an opportunity to get up and salute after sitting down, instead of staggering there in a daze, not giving face to the main family.
This Fei Huan, as the boss of the Drunken Immortal Building, is not a rough man who does not know etiquette, since he has done such an rude act, then he must have deliberately provoked the Qi family.
Could it be that Zhongsun Long, the old fox, was dissatisfied with the conditions offered by the Qi family, and privately instructed Fei Huan to make trouble at the dinner?
Lu Yunzhou couldn't help but set his eyes on Zhongsun Long at the opposite table, but when he saw Zhong Sun Long, he was also stunned at the moment, and there was still anger in his expression, and he couldn't help but be slightly stunned!
Could it be that Zhong Sunlong didn't know about Fei Huan's actions?
Before Lu Yunzhou could think about it, he saw Fei Huan respectfully saluting, and then said softly: "Lord Tanghou, I heard that your mansion intends to develop the restaurant industry, so I take the liberty of asking, since the Qi family already owns the salt business of the Qi country, it is impossible for the country to lack wealth, why do you want to seize the small profits of our ordinary people?"
Several people in the audience immediately echoed Fei Huan's words, which seemed to resonate with everyone, and there was an uproar in the audience.
Lu Yunzhou had doubts in his heart, swept his eyes, and wrote down the faces of these people who echoed his words.
Fei Huan took the lead at the beginning of the banquet, obviously premeditated to arouse the public anger of the people present, so as to block the Qi family's argument that they were going to open a restaurant next, so that the Qi family was in a dilemma, thus destroying the Qi family's restaurant plan.
This person's strategy is very simple, he first gave the Qi family a charge of competing with the people, if the Qi family mentions the matter of the restaurant again, it will inevitably be disgusted by everyone, if the Qi family does not mention it, it will make people feel that the Qi family is empty, and the crime will be even more confirmed.
In any case, he first set a tone for the Qi family to open a restaurant, so no matter whether the Qi family can succeed in the end, the stain of this wealthy family competing with the people for profit and exploiting the people is bound to be difficult to be washed away!
And the direction of this person's spearhead is likely to be the good reputation that the Qi family has always maintained as a son of love for the people.
As soon as Fei Huan said this, Lu Yunzhou immediately frowned, and the suspicion of Zhongsun Long in his heart was mostly gone!
Fei Huan's move was too extreme and sharp, and it was unlikely that Zhong Sun Long instigated it, just because Qi Jing had already informed Zhong Sun Long about the shareholding system, and promised to leave Zhong Sun Long's largest shares, even if Zhong Sun Long was still dissatisfied, under the Qi family's sincerity, the conditions could naturally continue to be discussed in private, and there was no need to completely tear his face with the Qi family and offend the Qi family for no reason in such an open audience, which would not benefit him at all.
If Fei Huan's move was not at the behest of Zhongsun Long, then it was very likely that he had already been bought by the enemies of the Qi family.
After all, when his boss hasn't expressed any opinion, Fei Huan, a small person, will not make such a feat of arguing with the Qi family!
But Fei Huan is Zhong Sun Long's person after all, and he stood up like this, giving the people present the feeling that the Qi family had broken down with Zhong Sun Long because of their involvement in the restaurant industry controlled by Zhong Sun Long, and the two parties had begun to tear their faces and openly fight each other.
And the person behind the scenes obviously didn't know that the Qi family and Zhongsun Long had a tacit understanding in private, so the people behind the scenes probably wanted to kill two birds with one stone, not only to destroy the reputation of the Qi family, but also to make it difficult for the Qi family to get involved in the restaurant industry smoothly, and to secretly provoke the relationship between the Qi family and Zhong Sun Long.
On Zhong Sun Long's side, letting Fei Huan come out can create a feeling for Zhong Sun Long that his subordinates are standing up to protect the boss, and Fei Huan can also reduce risks.
If it weren't for the Qijia Restaurant plan being a joint-stock system proposed by Lu Yunzhou, if it weren't for the fact that Uncle Qi Jing and Zhongsun Long had passed through the gas in private, I am afraid that the people behind the scenes today would have achieved their goals!
These thoughts flashed in his mind like lightning and flint, Lu Yunzhou glanced around, and saw that the eldest uncle Qi Jing on the side and Zhongsun Long on the opposite side exchanged a meaningful look, and in his heart, he stood up, bowed his hand, and said with a smile: "Boss Fei, my grandfather is old, why don't I answer Boss Fei's question, okay?"
