When he saw Shang Yao in Longfeng Tower, Xiao Zheng was quite surprised that Linghu Zhu was also there.
I couldn't help but smile, feeling that this couple was really interesting. It was clear that there was no possibility of development, but we were still able to get together as friends and partners. I wonder if Linghuzhu really gave up and focused on his career. He still found some excuses and continued to approach Shang Yao.
"Master Linghu is a rare visitor to our Dragon and Phoenix Tower." Xiao Zheng stepped forward to shake hands with him and said with a smile. "Drink two more drinks in the evening."
"Definitely." Linghu Zhu said with a smile. "I'm just afraid that Boss Xiao thinks I'm a good drinker and drink too much."
Xiao Zheng laughed: "There's nothing good about my Dragon Phoenix House, except that it drinks too much."
After saying that, he reached out and led the two of them into the pre-booked box. Pushing the door open and walking in, the table was already filled with wine and food. The two cheongsam girls also served tea in a dignified manner. After finishing the work at hand, Xiao Zheng waved the girl away. Enter the formal topic.
"Come, let's have a drink first." Xiao Zheng smiled and said apologetically. "There have been a lot of things going on at home this year, but I haven't had much chance to meet with you. I'm sorry."
Shang Yao and Linghu Zhu both raised their glasses and drank it all in one gulp. Then, Xiao Zheng introduced the dishes on the table very familiarly. After eating, Linghu Zhu smiled and praised again and again.
After drinking for three rounds, Shang Yao slowly put down his wine glass and finally got to the point: "Boss Xiao, have you contacted Bai Wushuang recently?"
"We are mortal enemies. If we really wanted to contact each other, we would probably start fighting already." Xiao Zheng said half-jokingly.
In fact, since the last meal with Bai Wushuang. The two really didn't have any contact after that. After all, that was a year ago. Who knows what Bai Wushuang has experienced this year
Shang Yao nodded, pursed his lips and said, "I only received the news recently. I know that Bai Wushuang is about to make a big move." After a pause, Shang Yao raised his eyes slightly. "Even my father has begun to act secretly."
"Boss Shang also wants to join?" Xiao Zheng was slightly surprised when he heard this.
Bai Wushuang had many reasons for his actions, and the biggest reason was revenge. What about Shang Jingtian? Fishing in troubled waters, or taking the initiative to attack the Zhao family
With Shang Jingtian's character, the possibility of the former is very high. The latter - the Zhao family's target is not just Yan Shang's family. How could Shang Jingtian forcefully come forward and serve as cannon fodder for several wealthy families
Bai Wuxia still has the style of a general who charges into battle, Shang Jingtian? He is a strategist who hides behind his back and uses all his traps.
"I haven't figured out the details yet." Shang Yao sighed softly. Said slowly. "But what is certain is that Sijiucheng will undergo a major reshuffle soon."
A big shakeout
Xiao Zheng saw that Shang Yao used such serious words to describe it, which showed that the news was correct and Bai Wushuang was really going to make a big move.
As if worried that Xiao Zheng would be indifferent, Linghu Zhu slowly put down his wine glass and said, "I can confirm Yaoyao's words."
After a pause, he continued: "The Zhao family seems to have taken some action. They even contacted my father."
Xiao Zheng said in surprise: "Your Majesty, you want to take action too?"
It seems that there is really going to be chaos in Sijiucheng!
The Bai family, Shang Jingtian, and now even the Northeast King Linghu Youyi have to take action personally. This battle, why
Linghuzhu nodded solemnly: "I tried to persuade my father, but he didn't listen."
The so-called disobedience is a debt of favor that Linghu must repay. Otherwise, it will continue to Linghu Zhu in the future.
And obviously, Linghu Yiyi did not dare to default on this favor. Because the debt of favor is owed to the Zhao family.
Xiao Zheng was silent for a moment, pursed his lips and said, "So, there are quite a few wealthy families involved this time." After a pause, he raised his eyes and glanced at Shang Yao again. "What do you mean, Mr. Yan? Join the war?"
"Grandpa said four words. Wait for the opportunity." Shang Yao said slowly. "I always think that this battle is too strange and full of mystery. Moreover, the Zhao family really dares to be so bold as to attack three or even four of our families at the same time?"
Linghuzhu also nodded slightly and said: "The Zhao family is indeed powerful and mysterious enough. But in my opinion, they can only be one against two at most. No matter how many more, I'm afraid they won't be able to withstand it. Otherwise, they wouldn't play so many conspiracies. It's a conspiracy to split the internal peace. Not to mention dragging my father into the water."
Xiao Zheng nodded in agreement.
Whether it's the Ye Gongguan family, the Yan Shang family, or the Bai family. Who is not a super wealthy family that has been divided for many years? No matter how strong the Zhao family operates overseas, it is still an away game after all. Even if high-rise buildings have already nodded, they will not interfere too much. But it is not easy to defeat many with one.
These wealthy families are not vegetarians!
"You mean, this battle is just a test?" Xiao Zheng asked curiously.
"Maybe more than a test. But our Yan family will stay put for the time being." Shang Yao said word by word.
Xiao Zheng laughed when he heard this: "Since your Yan family is not moving, why are you so anxious to contact me? Could it be that Miss Shang wants to use me as cannon fodder to charge into the battle?"
Hearing this, Linghu Zhu explained anxiously: "Boss Xiao, you have misunderstood Yaoyao. This time, I actually asked Yaoyao for help."
"You?" Xiao Zheng looked at Linghu Zhu strangely. "No matter how you look at this matter, it's not the Linghu family's turn to play the home game, right? Why is Mr. Linghu so concerned?"
"I'm worried that something will happen to my father." Linghu Zhu sighed softly, with a worried look on his face. "The Zhao family has never regarded their father as a human being. He has not shown up in the past few years. As soon as he came out in the past few years, he asked his father to do some dangerous things."
After a pause, Linghu Zhu raised his eyes and said, "Boss Xiao, what do you think of our Linghu family?"
"The most wealthy family in the Northeast." Xiao Zheng said with a smile. "Of course it's a top-notch wealthy family."
More than just a wealthy businessman
Even in Northeast politics, the influence of the Linghu family is quite astonishing. It’s just that the Northeast itself is relatively backward economically. This also resulted in the Northeast King's reputation not being comparable to that of Lin Laoyao, the business tycoons at the emperor's feet.
In terms of overall strength, at least it will not lose to Hu Yishan's Jufeng Network. Definitely one of the top ten on the rich list.
"After this incident, I will take over the Linghu family." Linghu Zhu said solemnly.
"Congratulations." Xiao Zheng smiled.
Seeing that Xiao Zheng didn't answer, Linghu Zhu's expression became more solemn and he said: "I know that such a request is too much and will make it difficult for Boss Xiao. But I really hope that Boss Xiao can help me. I only have one request, to protect my father. One life. I don’t care about the rest.”
Linghuzhu didn't wait for Xiao Zheng to react, then continued to add: "As long as Boss Xiao agrees, from now on, I, Linghuzhu, will follow Boss Xiao's lead and charge into battle without hesitation."
