I raised my eyebrows: "Mr. Ouyang, I'm so dishonest! I've done you a great favor, don't you know it?"
Ouyang smiled: "Oh? What have you done for me?"
I have already figured out all the joints in my heart. At this moment, I am full of confidence and said loudly: "Today's matter has nothing to do with me! Huh! Chen Shan didn't know who he was, and Ye Huan infiltrated his body." Organization. The second master colluded with Ye Huan to assassinate Shen Shan. Although Shen Shan was smart, but the other party did his mental calculations, Shen Shan would be dead anyway! Whether I was present or not, the result would be the same! Shen Shan must die! Mr. Ouyang, do you admit this?"
"That makes sense!" Ouyang nodded.
I sneered again: "For me, I happened to encounter this kind of thing, and I was blamed for this. Naturally, it is unlucky! But for Mr. Ouyang or Qing Hong, it is the greatest luck among misfortunes!"
"how to say?"
"Haha!" I laughed deliberately: "Is Mr. Ouyang still pretending to be stupid? What happened today, if I'm not here...then the second master has already controlled the whole Shanghai at this moment! In less than three days, Qing Hong, who starts with a herringbone in Shanghai, is about to change his surname to Ye!! At that time, Qing Hong lost the power of a sub-treasurer in a place, and Ye Huan gained a helping hand! Whoever loses, who is proud? Mr. Ouyang, What do you think?" I looked at Ouyang's face, and continued quickly: "But I was there too, by accident, I killed the second master! As a result, Shen Shan died, but Ye Huan's The pawn is also dead! Although Ye Huan has killed Shen Shan, his plan to instigate against Shen Shan's forces has already failed! Qinghong has lost a Shen Shan, so naturally he can send another person to Shanghai to take charge of the situation, which is better Everyone in Shanghai is falling for Ye Huan, right? If it wasn't for me... Humph, the current situation would be ten times worse!"
Ouyang was silent for a while, then sighed: "You said, yes."
Speaking of this, he suddenly smiled: "That's all! I'll help you with this matter. I'll send a message tomorrow to help you get rid of the scapegoat."
I'm a little surprised. Could it be that Ouyang isn't going to blackmail me with just a few words from me? Originally, I was prepared, and Ouyang would definitely put forward some conditions.
Ouyang looked at my face, couldn't help smiling, and said: "Fortunately, I met you today... You are the most powerful young man I have ever met. Although you have many shortcomings, you will become a master. If I I knocked you hard, maybe you will remember it in the future, and sooner or later, I'm afraid I'll knock it back with interest. Instead of doing this, it's better to sell your favor."
After a pause, Ouyang continued: "Of course, I won't give up any benefits. How about this, you send a few words back..."
He seemed to think about it, and said slowly: "I won't hide it from you. Shen Shan did fall to me in secret, but I still have chess pieces under Shen Shan's hand. Although Shen Shan is dead now, but His power on this plate will still be mine sooner or later. In this Shanghai, there are three halls of heaven, earth, and people, and I have already occupied two of them. I dare not think about the territory of Tianzitou, but I can Two-thirds of it is in Shanghai, and I am satisfied. The thing I beg you is also simple... Shen Shan has been doing things secretly for the big circle, and I know it. From now on... "
I frowned: "Could it be that you want the big circle to withdraw from Shanghai completely? I can't agree to this matter, and I can't be the master!"
"No, no..." Ouyang smiled and said, "Frankly speaking, if I can accept Qinghong's three halls in Shanghai, then I will naturally be the first to find a way to drive the big circle away." Out of Shanghai! How can I allow others to sleep soundly next to my couch! Humph! However, Shanghai is not mine now. A balance has been established, and no one dares to move anyone easily... But now, there are only two families left. I'm afraid that if the "herringbone" prefix falls, we will be left with two "Tianzi" and "Di" prefixes, and we will start fighting in Shanghai. .I don’t want to turn against Tianzitou now. So, I’m happy to have a big circle come in. In Shanghai, there are opportunities to make a fortune everywhere, and the family can’t finish it. One more big circle can make money. I and Tianzitou continue to maintain balance, but I am willing to see it."
"Then what do you mean..."
Ouyang smiled, and he seemed to be very easy-going: "You can help me pass a few words to the people in the big circle... The business of the big circle in Shanghai can be done as usual, but I have two requests: the business of your big circle in Shanghai, I don't intervene, but you can cross the border and change hands, but you can't set up a stronghold in Shanghai! The business in your big circle, whether it's arms, smuggling, or drugs, Shanghai is a port city, and I don't care about coming in and out, but If the big circle dares to sit on the ground and open a hall in Shanghai! Then don’t blame me, Ouyang, for not giving face! Come one, I’ll kill one! Come a hundred, I’ll kill a hundred!”
I nodded, as it should have been. Otherwise, how could someone as shrewd as Ouyang give up his territory so easily for the big circle to come in? Ouyang would not do the thing of leading wolves into the house.
He just needs a large circle to enter Shanghai in name, so that there will be a third-party force between Qinghong in the sky and Qinghong in Ouyang's head, as a buffer zone to maintain peace . It's not really that the land will be released to the big circle.
I understand.
"Well, I understand the first one, what about the second one you mentioned?" I looked at Ouyang.
"Secondly, it's not difficult." Ouyang said lightly: "In the future, I will guarantee the business of the big circle in Shanghai! I will guarantee your safe entry and exit, and if there are any small troubles, I can solve them for you... But, No matter what business you do or how much money you make, I, Ouyang, will share 10% of it!"
I suddenly changed color, stood up immediately, and said firmly: "This is absolutely impossible!"
Ouyang didn't move, he was still sitting and looking at me. With a sullen face, I said slowly: "Mr. Ouyang, your appetite must be too big!"
"How to say?"
"Hmph!" I snorted displeasedly, and said in a deep voice, "You have to share 10% of all the business of the big circle in Shanghai... Hey! Even if you collect protection fees and tolls, there are not so many! And..." I gritted my teeth and said, "My company in Shanghai, Chen Yang's entertainment business, and the Deep Blue Entertainment I just bought, import and export business... After all, I, Chen Yang, are also in the big circle. , Mr. Ouyang will take away 10% every year just based on one sentence, don't say I disagree, even my brothers will never do it! I'm afraid there is no such reason in this world. "
"Ah... I forgot to say that." Ouyang saw that I was angry, but he didn't mind at all. He smiled, stretched out his hand to help his glasses, and said with a smile: "What I said is 10%, your legal business is Chen Yang. Naturally, it is not included in it. To be honest, Chen Yang, you are in the entertainment business, entertainment company, or your Huaxing Import and Export Company, and those legitimate and legal businesses, whether it is import or export or investment... these I don't interfere. I don't ask. I mean... I'll take 10% of all the illegal business! Do you understand?"
"Huh..." I still snorted displeasedly, but my tone was not so strong: "So... what about smuggling?"
Ouyang smiled, and he poured me another cup of tea slowly, then raised his eyelids and looked at me: "Chen Yang, I know, your Huaxing company must have smuggling business, right? The entire west coast of Canada The smuggling business is said to be under your control. If the Huaxing company you set up here does not do smuggling, then it would be strange! But you have to understand that this is not Canada, but Shanghai! Qinghong has been deeply rooted in Shanghai for many years , even the big circles in China can only transfer some business in and out here secretly, and dare not blatantly intervene in Shanghai Bund!"
After a pause, he raised his finger and pointed to the teacup in front of him: "Sit down, what about business? We always talk about it sentence by sentence, so why be so anxious... Sigh, young man, after all, he still lacks a bit of composure."
I frowned and sat down, but didn't touch the teacup in front of me, and thought about it carefully. Ouyang just looked at me with piercing eyes, didn't speak, just waited for me.
"Okay!" I breathed out slowly: "But it's absolutely impossible to share 10%! What about the price... According to the domestic rules, I'll pay the protection fee."
"Ha!" Ouyang suddenly smiled brightly, and looked at me: "Chen Yang, Chen Yang... Do you think I really care about this money?"
He raised his eyebrows and said lightly: "Do you know how much benefit did Shen Shan get from being the agent of the big circle in secret? Let me tell you... Shen Shan works for the big circle, and the goods of the big circle transit in Shanghai. Shen Shan will share 10% of the business! When I came here, I didn’t raise the price, and I promised to keep everything as usual. As long as you pass my words back, people in the big circle, as long as they are not idiots, will not refuse As for you..." He sneered and said, "Chen Yang, you just came to Shanghai, how much smuggling business can your Huaxing company do? Even if you can earn tens of millions here a year, I will share 10% of it. , it's only a few million... I, Ouyang, would I care about a few million a year... "
My heart skipped a beat.
Indeed, with Ouyang's status, would he care about his annual income of several million? With his status and status, I am afraid that if he just gambles for a night, the number of wins and losses will be more than this number!
"Rules are the most important thing." Ouyang said lightly: "The whole illegal business in Shanghai has always belonged to Qinghong! No matter what the prefix is, it must be Qinghong's signboard! If you change Chen Yang, When you were in Vancouver, if there were foreign organizations that wanted to do business in Vancouver, would you let them in? Hmph! Of course you wouldn’t, so now that you, Chen Yang, come back from abroad and come to Shanghai, you will Doing business here, do we Qinghong have to open the door to welcome you? If it makes sense, I'm afraid there is no such reason in the world."
I am silent.
Indeed, what Ouyang said makes sense. According to the rules of the Tao, what I did was actually "fishing beyond the bounds". Not to mention that they charge me 10% of the protection fee, even if he Qinghong turns against me and immediately fights with me to drive my business out of Shanghai, then it is their reason to spread the word.
"Okay." I nodded: "I'll pass on Mr. Ouyang's words back. If there is no opinion on the big circle, then I have no opinion. Every year in the future, I will spend money to buy roads."
"That's right, that's right, it's these four words 'buying roads with money'." Ouyang smiled and said, "Money, you and I don't care about such a small amount of money. But there are no rules, and there is no such thing as a circle. Let alone this matter A few million a year, even a few hundred yuan a year, should be contested, and I will never compromise! The rules come first, and if the rules are broken, I won’t be able to be the boss in the future!”
I am silent.
In fact, I didn't lose much. Because when I came back to China, I didn’t intend to do too much illegal business. I made an agreement with Wu Gang. When I returned to China, I would invest the funds in my hands and make money in the right way, or... whitewash!
Some smuggling will be done, but it won't be too much after all. After all, if you just divide up the illegal business every year, it really doesn't cost much. But in exchange for a temporary stable relationship with Qinghong, it is worth it.
…
The first time I met Ouyang, after talking for so long, overall, I suffered a little loss, but in the big picture, it was basically evenly divided, at least it solved the problem of me being a scapegoat, and Ouyang also had to let it go Circle enters the market in Shanghai. After the talk, it can be regarded that each of them has achieved the expected goal.
I drank the last cup of tea before me and we were ready to leave. I suddenly found that during the conversation just now, although Ouyang was in charge of the tea ceremony from the beginning to the end, he kept pouring tea for me, but he never took a sip. I couldn't help but look sideways and said, "Yi? Doesn't Mr. Ouyang drink it himself?"
Ouyang sighed, smiled calmly, and said lightly: "I just killed someone with my hand today, and with the murderous intent, the tea I brewed will inevitably taste dirty. I'm the most picky drinker of tea, so I don't drink it."
… Oh shit!
I cursed secretly in my heart.
…
The dinner was very simple. The three of me, Ouyang, and old man Qiao passed away talking and laughing. The food cooked by the top chef of Huaiyang cuisine is naturally exquisite. With two jugs of wine, the three of us drank together, creating an atmosphere It's also harmonious.
Ouyang drank a lot, his glass was almost dry, and after drinking more than a dozen glasses, his expression remained unchanged. In the end, it was Qiao Qiao's father who laughed and said, "Don't drink too much wine, or you will get dizzy, and you won't be able to play cards tonight."
Although I am not very good at playing mahjong, but on this occasion, one is Qiao Qiao's father, and the other is Qinghong's big boss. They say to play mahjong, can I not play
What's more, I brought Yang Wei to accompany me, and the four of us played mahjong all night, but I lost more than 600,000 yuan. What makes me strange is that Qiao Qiao's father seems to have shown mercy to me, and Mr. Ouyang rarely wins, but Yang Wei beat me up with a few big cards, and I was defeated.
However, she is very indifferent to me, no matter whether she wins or loses, she seldom talks to me. I was so overwhelmed that I wanted to say something, but there were four people present at the table, so I couldn't say it.
When I finally found a chance to go to the bathroom, I blocked Yang Wei outside, and pulled her aside regardless of her frowning: "Let's talk!"
Yang Wei's expression was calm: "What are you talking about? Are you talking about business?"
One sentence blocked me back, and when I was about to speak, Yang Wei broke free from me gently, but said in a low voice: "You lost all night...why don't you take out the ring to wear it? If you wear the ring , who can beat you."
After she finished speaking, she lifted her legs and left, and I couldn't help calling out in a low voice: "Wei Wei..."
Yang Wei was startled, stopped immediately, but turned to look at me, and sighed suddenly: "From now on... you should call me Yang Wei."
These words fell into my ears, and immediately my eyes went dark, and when I looked at Yang Wei, he had already quietly left.
When I returned to the poker table, I lost even more clinkingly. I didn’t play any big cards for one night, and I didn’t even play my ass. At the end of the day, when it was almost dawn, old man Qiao pushed the cards and laughed. Said: "Okay, everyone is tired, this is the end of today."
Someone brought the prepared refreshing ginseng soup, drank one cup each, and settled the gambling money again, Yang Wei won a big win tonight, took the 800,000 check I handed over, flicked it lightly, He smiled and said, "Thank you, Xiao Wu."
But Mr. Ouyang patted me on the shoulder lightly, and said with a low laugh: "The game of poker is like a battlefield. You are too distracted. You only lost 800,000 tonight. You are lucky. If it were me, at least knock you out one more time." times."
Everyone is going to rest, so someone next to me will lead me to rest. Old man Qiao has already prepared a place for me in this rich man's club, a single-family villa, and my gang has been waiting here for a night. .
Tu has already returned, along with Hammer and others. Hammer and the others also looked like they hadn't slept all night, obviously they didn't see me and were anxious. On the contrary, Tu looked calm, still looking like a killing machine. I saw that he had already changed his clothes, probably because he had a lot of blood stains on his body during the battle yesterday, which had been washed away.
I didn't say anything more to them. Last night, I had spent a lot of energy in fighting with Ouyang and bargaining. In the gambling game, I was beaten by Yang Wei again, which made me even more depressed. I didn't want to say anything more at this moment, so I waved my hand directly. He asked everyone to disperse to rest, and then he went back to the prepared room, and fell asleep without taking off his clothes.
This time, I don't know how long I slept. In my sleep, I suddenly heard the door of the room being gently pushed open.
I'm used to licking blood on the edge of a knife, so I won't let go of my vigilance. Although I was asleep, when someone approached, I woke up immediately. Ting Na's footsteps were very light, as if he deliberately didn't want to disturb me, and his breathing was very soft, as if he was a woman.
Could it be Yang Wei
I was overjoyed: Could it be that she did this to me yesterday to deceive others on purpose? Well, yes! This is old man Qiao's place. She doesn't mind being too affectionate with me, that's why she treats me like that. Now that I'm free, come and meet me in private.
As soon as I was happy, I jumped out of bed immediately.
"ah!!"
I jumped up from the bed suddenly, and immediately startled the visitor. I heard a clang, but it was the sound of plates falling on the ground, and glasses falling on the ground. Although the thick carpet was not broken, the milk But it's already spilled all over the place.
The visitor looked panicked, his pretty face flushed, he covered his chest with his hands, and looked at me in panic, and then he came back to his senses after a while, widened his glasses and shouted: "Chen Yang! You jumped up suddenly, who are you scaring! Do you know, people are scary, scary to death!"
"Little money fan..." I looked at the girl in front of me, opened my mouth, and smiled wryly, "Yes... it's you."
"Of course it's me." Amei rolled her eyes and looked at me suspiciously: "Otherwise, who do you think it is?"
I was at a loss for words, but I couldn't answer. Suddenly, my heart moved, and I looked at me: "What are you doing in my room?"
As I said that, I frowned.
When I was sleeping, a woman named Amei could easily come into my room! Is everyone around me dead
Thinking of this, I suddenly felt unhappy.
"Don't frown." After all, Ah Mei knew me well. Seeing my face, she smiled and said, "A big black man is guarding you outside. But he didn't stop me... Well, there is another man with a swollen face." The fellow is also sitting in the living room outside. When I came to see you, it was Miss Yang Wei who accompanied me. The guy with the fleshy face seemed to be very polite to Miss Yang Wei. Miss Yang Wei said that I It was your friend, and they let me in."
When Amei said this, her expression was a little twitchy, and I understood it when my heart moved, so I couldn't help but smile wryly.
All my subordinates, including Hammer, have seen with their own eyes the women around me one after another. I'm afraid that I, the boss, has already been branded as a "playful" in their eyes. Yang Wei introduced Xiao Caimi as my friend, but I'm afraid these guys are delusional, thinking that Amei is my woman, so they let go. Maybe she came into my room.
"Oh, you..." Amei sighed: "I heard that you played mahjong all night and fell asleep without eating. I was worried that you would go to bed hungry and wake up looking for something to eat. Do the math." It's time, you should get up, and then I brought you some food... You still stare and scare me!"
I rubbed my cheeks, let the numb muscles relax a little, and then smiled wryly: "Thank you..."
Ah Mei snorted, looking at the food spilled on the floor, milk and eggs, and a few pieces of bacon.
"Okay, don't mess with it, someone will clean it up later." I got up and pulled her out of the room.
Sure enough, outside, Hammer was guarding in the living room. When he saw me and Amei coming out together, he had a strange expression on his face, and said with a smile, "Fifth Brother, you're awake."
"Go get ready, we'll go back to the company later." I said lightly.
"Wait a minute." Seeing that the hammer was about to go down, Amei stopped him, then looked at me, and said, "Well, that Miss Yang Wei, let me tell you... Well, Mr. Qiao asked you to stay here for two days , saying that it will take two days for your troubles to be completely resolved. These two days, for your safety, it is better to stay here first and not go out. "
"..." I sighed, "This is what Yang Wei asked you to tell me?"
"Um."
I nodded and glanced at Hammer: "Okay, that's it, Hammer, you go down and rest first. Don't worry, this place is very safe."
But I was very unhappy in my heart... Yang Wei, Yang Wei, don't you even want to talk to me? But let someone else convey it.
Hammer saw that I had a bad look, so he knew that I was in a bad mood, so he went down immediately. Amei and I were left in the room. I sat on the sofa, but I was upset for a while, so I couldn't help but went to get the table. The cigarette box on the table, but Amei opened my hand.
"Hey!" Amei stared at me with her arms crossed: "Smoking just after waking up! Sooner or later you will be smoked to death! Go brush your teeth and wash your face first, and then eat."
I couldn't help being stunned for a moment, I always felt that Amei's scolding eyes were very familiar, I was taken aback for a moment before I remembered that when I was injured, when Amei was my nurse, when she took care of me, she restrained me like this —Of course, peeping while I was in the bathroom, I remembered those details too.
Thinking of the past, I couldn't help feeling better, couldn't help smiling, and said, "Okay, I'll just listen to you."
However, Amei seems to have returned to my role as my little nurse, serving me to wash my face, brush my teeth and change my clothes. She took care of me for a long time back then, and she was a professional private nurse, so she was extremely proficient in doing these things. He even shaved my beard at the end.
Looking at my completely new self in the mirror, I couldn't help sighing, and said sincerely: "Amei, I look the cleanest today since I came back to China. I don't even bother to shave on weekdays."
Amei smiled triumphantly, but stretched out her hand and said, "Give me the money!"
I waved my hand: "Remember first."
"Damn! You are such a rich person, you still owe me a little nursing bill." Amei made a face at me.
After washing up, I was a little stunned, living at Qiao Qiao's father's place, but I didn't know what I should do... um... Do you want to see Yang Wei
Although I knew that if I went, I would still hit a wall, but once I had this thought, I couldn't suppress it anymore.
"Ah..." Amei looked at my expression and sighed, "You're thinking about that Miss Yang, aren't you?"
I was embarrassed... Leaving aside Amei's strange attitude towards me... Don't forget, she is also my wife's good friend!
"I really don't know, you look smart, but why are you so stupid like a pig right now." Amei sighed quietly, and snorted: "That Miss Yang Wei obviously loves you very deeply in her heart. ! Don't you know that?"
I smiled wryly and shook my head: "This... Maybe it was in the past, but now..."
"Hmph! A man with a heart!" A Mei said angrily: "You have Yan Di, and you are still messing around! You..."
Seeing that I didn't speak, Amei kicked me and said loudly: "You are so stupid! That Miss Yang Wei, I'm afraid that she loves you so much that she is going to die, but her attitude is deliberately pretending Yes! The more indifferent she is to you, the more it means that she can't forget you in her heart. This attitude is just to deliberately suppress the feelings in her heart... Don't you understand? "
There was a movement in my heart, and suddenly it brightened up like seeing the sun through the clouds!
yes! If Yang Wei was really unfeeling towards me, how could he be so cold? With her character, if she really forgot about me, she should treat me with the most normal attitude. It seemed that she was becoming more and more indifferent now, and it seemed that her heart was not at peace.
"What are you doing in a daze." A Mei stared at me "viciously": "If you want to find her, just go. See what I do, can I still stop you!"
I was so excited that I stood up immediately, but Amei turned her head away from me. I didn't want to talk to her, so I went out the door immediately.
There is a long corridor outside the villa where I live. As soon as I went out, people from the club came over and asked me respectfully if I had any needs. I asked where Yang Wei was, and immediately Someone called to inquire, but told me that Ms. Yang Wei had gone out and was not in the clubhouse.
Disappointed, I sighed and turned around, and when I returned to the villa, I entered the door, only to see the little money fan sitting on the sofa, hugging his knees, with his head buried between his knees, crying softly . Hearing the sound of me pushing the door and coming in, she hurriedly raised her head, wiped her red and swollen glasses vigorously, and stared at me: "Why are you back...you...what are you looking at! What's so interesting! I've never seen a beautiful girl Tears!"
After finishing speaking, she jumped off the sofa, strode past me, and was about to leave the house. Seeing Xiaocaimi weeping, I couldn't help but feel a little guilty, so I couldn't help but give her a tug. , but it's a bad thing...
Amei was about to struggle, but how could she be as strong as me? I used too much force, and I pulled her down into my arms. What a Mei, she suddenly raised her knees and pressed her against my crotch. When I dodged, my knees were pressed against my crotch. On my stomach, I couldn't help lowering my head under the pain of eating, but my teeth hit Amei's head...
"oops… "
The two cried out in pain at the same time, one covered his mouth and the other covered his head and squatted down, the two of them got too close, couldn't help standing unsteadily, and sat down on the floor at the same time, Amei was small, but fell down In my arms. The two of us sat on the floor, but our posture was indescribably ambiguous. At this moment, from the perspective of others, it happened to be me sitting on the ground, holding Amei in my arms...
What's worse is that some "others" really saw it! !
At this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open, and a carefree voice came from outside: "Where's Chen Yang? Hurry up, come out, my old man is going to arrest me back!"
Who is this voice if it's not Miss Qiao!
The door opened, and Qiao Qiao rushed in, but saw me "holding" Amei in his arms. What's worse, I lowered my head, as if I was about to kiss Amei. As for Amei, she closed her glasses in pain, but she seemed to be a passionate girl catering to her lover...
Qiao Qiao froze for a second, rolled her eyes several times, and then...
I feel cold...
murderous look! It's so murderous! ! !
