Xu Ying reported outside the door, "Miss, Mr. Wu is here."
The timing of his arrival was quite coincidental. There was a coldness in Hua Zhi's eyes. They were so close, and there was such a big deal at stake. Hua Zhi didn't believe that Wu Zheng didn't know what had happened until now. She could understand that Wu Zheng didn't want to have a head-on conflict with Yushun, but inevitably his impression of him was greatly reduced.
No matter what, she is also a customer of Antai. Not to mention protecting her personal safety, even the superficial efforts are too poor.
As soon as Wu Zheng came in, he apologized, "I am late."
Hua Zhi was stunned when she saw Wu Zheng's appearance. His whole body was wet, even his hair was dripping with water, and he looked very embarrassed. "What is Mr. Wu doing..."
Wu Zheng smiled bitterly, "That Cao Dahai had someone sink one of my boats. I went to the dock after hearing the news, but before I even got the boat up, someone came to report that he and the girl had a conflict. I thought it was strange before, because although Cao Dahai had always been against us, he had never been hostile to us. But it turned out..."
Knowing that he was not retreating to protect himself, Hua Zhi felt relieved. Thinking about Wu Dong's words again, she was moved, "Did someone tip him off?"
"Yes." Wu Zheng gnashed his teeth and was obviously very angry. "If Cao Dahai hadn't known the details of this deal, he wouldn't have gone to such lengths. I have already asked someone to investigate. I will never tolerate people who betray their own people!"
At this time, Chen Er came running in with a red face and panting, and kept winking at the owner outside the door. Wu Zheng apologized and left the room, his face not looking very good, "Why do you have to say it now?"
"It's over! Cao Dahai is done for!"
Wu Zheng immediately looked at him with burning eyes.
Chen Er pulled the boss away and said in a low voice with a look of satisfaction, "Yushun was flipped upside down, the roof was destroyed, Wu Dahai had his four limbs broken and his third leg crippled. He's breathing more than breathing in, and we don't know if he can survive. It was done by the young lady's people!"
Chen Er couldn't suppress his excitement, and lowered his voice, "Many people saw that it was the girl in the veil who did it!"
Wu Zheng clenched his fists and then unclenched them. Although he never treated this business as a soft persimmon, he didn't think highly of them either. Judging from their behavior, even if they were from a noble family, they must have fallen on hard times, otherwise why would they let a woman show her face in public to discuss business? In their Jingzhou, women like this could never get married and would be criticized all their lives.
But now he was extremely glad that he had a correct attitude!
Wu Zheng's mind raced, "Keep an eye on Yushun, in that person's name."
Chen Er didn't react for a moment and didn't know why the boss wanted to use the name of the eldest girl.
"Go quickly, before Li Xiang does."
Chen Er now understood that the boss was trying to seize the territory!
What else was there to say? Chen Er immediately turned around and ran as fast as he could. After eating Yushun, the position of their Antai Fishing Company was secured!
Wu Zheng took a few deep breaths, and bowed deeply to Hua Zhi as soon as he entered the house, "Thank you, young lady, for getting rid of a pest in our Shuiguang Village."
Judging from Chen Er's reaction just now and the words "Cao Dahai is in trouble", Hua Zhi believed that Wu Zheng was indeed being lured away by someone, so she changed her attitude and motioned Wu Zheng to sit down and talk.
"Speaking of which, I am also quite curious about who Cao Dahai is that makes Mr. Wu have to give way to him."
Wu Zheng no longer dared to neglect the woman in front of him, and immediately explained her doubts: "Let me tell you, young lady, Cao Dahai was originally a bully in Zhenyang County. Later, due to conflicts of interest, he withdrew from the county with a group of subordinates to our village and opened the Yushun Fishing Company. Over the years, he has done countless bullying and bullying of men and women, causing unrest in Shuiguang Village. Although our Wu family has opened an escort agency in Zhenyang since my father's generation, our ancestors are from Shuiguang Village. Later, some relatives and friends came to my father and asked him to punish him."
Wu Zheng smiled bitterly, "My father is old, how could I dare to accept it? I have not learned even 50% of his skills, and I know that with my little ability, I am no match for Cao Dahai who has more people and more power. It happened that the escort agency lost two escorts in a row, and there was a shortage of escorts, so I simply closed the escort agency and returned to Shuiguang Village to open a fishing business. I can not only have a meal, but also protect some of my clansmen. I am not flattering myself, because our fishing business is the reason why no one in Shuiguang Village was forced to death by Cao Daguang. It's just that my ability is limited, and this is all I can do."
"You should do things within your capabilities. Only with this self-awareness can you avoid hurting others and yourself. Wu Dongjia is a good person."
Wu Zheng smiled bitterly and shook his hands, unwilling to agree.
Hua Zhi took a sip of tea and asked, "So Cao Dahai doesn't have any background, he's just a bully?"
"That's almost true. Even if he has some connections, he is almost gone and his business is ruined. No one will stand up for him." What's more, the person who took action was obviously not an ordinary person, and they didn't have the courage to do so.
Very good. Even though Hua Zhi didn't take Cao Dahai seriously, she felt relieved when she heard Wu Zheng say that. It's always better to have less trouble.
"It seems that Mr. Wu is busy with something, so we should continue the discussion tomorrow as agreed."
"Yes." Wu Zheng stood up and bowed, "Mr. Wu will be waiting for you, young lady."
Hua Zhi stood up and bowed slightly, and Xu Ying walked forward to escort her out the door. Even though he had shown some strength now, he was still very polite.
As expected of someone coming from the capital, Wu Zheng felt emotional in his heart, but on the surface he maintained his previous attitude. He had also been outside and knew that being rude at first and respectful later would be more offensive.
"Huahua, just let him go like this. He wants to use your name to do things."
Otherwise, he would have knocked this guy down as well. Hua Zhi tapped Shaoyao's forehead and called Wang Cheng over, "Take Xiaoliu and have a look."
The Sixth Prince was stunned for a moment, then he immediately understood what Sister Hua meant. He took the initiative to stand up and said, "Let Wang Cheng stay. It's enough for me to have brothers Chen Zhen and Chen Shi by my side."
"Take it with you."
The Sixth Prince was happy but also felt that he was useless and held Sister Hua back. This was not good. He had to learn more and do more. Maybe he could help Sister Hua in the future. After returning, he had to work harder to hone his skills. No matter how many people protected him, it was not as good as being able to protect himself.
Hua Zhi walked to the window and looked at the empty street below. The surroundings were so quiet that it felt like she was in the mountains.
It's not that she didn't know what Wu was planning, but why should she stop him? If he really had the ability to swallow Yushun, it would only be good for her. At least she wouldn't have to worry about someone tampering with the supply.
On the other hand, Cao Dahai's end is the best deterrent. Even if Wu Zheng becomes more careless and crooked in the future, he will have to think about whether he can afford the consequences.
Good.
