Lu Dashan took two bites of braised vegetables and drank a glass of Maotai, then lit another cigarette and asked in a calm voice: "What do you think fox hunting is?"
"It's not a toy." Xiao Zheng shook his head. "It's an underground organization with influence all over the world. "
"The power is indeed great. Only the United Nations can win over representatives from all over the world." Lu Dashan took a puff of cigarette and said with a calm expression. "But ten years ago, or even earlier, Fox Hunt was not a so-called underground organization, but an organization with a background of the U.S. government."
"I know this." Xiao Zheng nodded.
"Indeed, no matter how you evaluate it, Fox Hunters is not an organization that can stand out on the stage. Even when it is closest to the US authorities, it has to keep a low profile. But as long as the U.S. government recognizes it, Fox Hunters will have a huge market and can make huge profits. .The most prosperous period of Fox Hunters also happened to be the longest honeymoon period after the establishment of diplomatic relations between the United States and China. During this period, Hunter Hunters entered China and was looking for partners in Asia. Tokyo's Ito Tsunami One. And the other is Shang Jingtian."
"So, in those days, Shang Jingtian's status as the representative of fox hunting was a dignified existence?" Xiao Zheng said in surprise.
"At least in small circles, it's a common feeling." Lu Dashan said with a smile. "Speaking of it, being able to become the representative of Fox Hunter Asia is also a powerful help for Shang Jingtian to reach today. At that time, many people were jealous of his position. Including me."
"You?" Xiao Zheng was dumbfounded.
"Is it weird?" Lu Dashan smiled. "Hunting represents the US authorities. And he has received many additional powers granted by the United States. Whether it is light or dark, Hungry has enviable energy. At that time, the United States and China were in the honeymoon period. Cooperating with Hungry, In other words, joining the fox hunt is not something worth hiding. Instead, it is worth showing off. And it is legal."
Xiao Zheng sighed: "I didn't expect fox hunting to have such a history." After a pause, he asked again. "Then why has it changed now? He even killed Yan Shang to protect his privacy?"
"It's not that the business world has changed. It's that the relationship between Hunting Fox and the United States has changed. Of course, it also includes the relationship between the United States and China." Lu Dashan said with a smile. "When all reasonable and legal things become sensitive and fragile, it's time to settle accounts. This is the situation Shang Jingtian faces. It is also the sequelae left behind after he joined Fox Hunt."
Xiao Zheng nodded lightly: "So, Shang Jingtian does have a reason to kill Yan Shang. Although it is a bit cruel, but humans, who doesn't think about themselves."
"Shang Jingtian can be regarded as a big man with worldly talents. When he joined Fox Hunter more than 20 years ago, he was on guard. First, he did not use Fox Hunter's energy to develop his career like Ito did. Second, he kept strict confidentiality. His identity as the representative of fox hunting. Except for us old guys, outsiders have no idea about his identity. To this day, he has managed to lurk in the dark, only taking advantage of it and not being harmed. If Yan Shang hadn't been accidentally exposed this time , I think Shang Jingtian will gradually withdraw from fox hunting. After all, there is really no soil for fox hunting to survive in China. Shang Jingtian cannot openly oppose the national policy because of small losses."
"So as far as the current situation is concerned, if Yan Shang dies, does it mean that Shang Jingtian has handed over an answer and expressed his attitude?" Xiao Zheng said.
"In the eyes of thoughtful people, it can indeed be viewed this way." Lu Dashan said with a smile. "From now on, there will be no room for fox hunting in China. This is also the result that the Dragon Group needs."
"Back to the previous question." Xiao Zheng lit a cigarette and frowned. "Why didn't General Qi tell the Dragon Group the news?"
"So what if I tell you?" Lu Dashan asked. "Let that little girl Jiang Qing come to our door and arrest Shang Jingtian? Or torture him to extract a confession?"
Xiao Zheng opened his mouth and said hesitantly: "She shouldn't have this ability, right?"
"Even the commander-in-chief of the Dragon Group would not do such a thing. It would not be possible. All the actions of the Dragon Group before were just an attitude. Of course, they were also a kind of pressure." Lu Dashan said with a smile.
"It sounds like telling a story. It requires both arranging troops and understanding, and it's a duel between masters." Xiao Zheng said with emotion.
"Shang Jingtian is not a master, how can he get to where he is today step by step?" Lu Dashan said with a smile.
"But the Yan Shang he held in one hand was ruined just like that." Xiao Zheng said with a grin. "If you have something to give back, you must have something to give."
Lu Dashan joked: "You underestimate Shang Jingtian."
"Huh?" Xiao Zheng asked doubtfully, "What do you mean?"
"According to my estimation, from the day he promoted Yan Shang, he should have planned to find him as a scapegoat." Lu Dashan said with a smile.
"Don't you want to make him your heir?" Xiao Zheng asked confused.
"Heir?" Lu Dashan said contemptuously. "He doesn't even know his last name, so he will let the Yan family get involved in his things?"
"Maybe he has no other choice." Xiao Zheng said. "After all, his daughter is nothing more than a straw bag. You can't hand over such a huge business empire to a prodigal woman, right?"
Lu Dashan smiled slightly and said mysteriously: "Next time you meet Shang Yao, be friendly."
Xiao Zheng twitched the corner of his mouth with a subtle expression.
"A woman who can disguise herself as a straw bag will definitely be more cruel and vengeful than a woman who pretends to be sophisticated." Lu Dashan joked.
"The Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in Forty-Nine City is really not a joke." Xiao Zheng sighed after drinking a glass of Maotai. "I plunged in with all my might, and not only did I splash countless waves, but I also hit several thunderbolts—"
"I didn't blow you to pieces, so you have some skills." Lu Dashan said with a smile. "In any case, your trip this time can be considered as one foot into the Four-Nine City. Walk back and look at your feet. If you don't make it, you will step on another thunder."
"Forty-nine cities are not only deep in water, but also thunderous." Lu Dashan concluded.
Xiao Zheng nodded, picked up the wine glass and said, "Uncle Lu, when you bravely entered the Forty-Nine Cities, why did you come back in the end? Did you also step on a thunderstorm? Did you come back in vain?"
Lu Dashan's drinking movements were stagnant, then he smiled bitterly and muttered: "Yes. It stepped on a big thunder, and it was fried on the outside and tender on the inside."
"snort!"
Suddenly there was a cold snort from upstairs. Lu Dashan was so frightened that he trembled.
"Okay." Lu Dashan stood up and chased the people away. "You know what you need to know. Go home. I have to wash my wife's feet."
Xiao Zheng burst into laughter and was kicked out of the house by Lu Dashan before he even took two bites of food. She shook her head and said, "Mother-in-law is really brave."
Some friends questioned whether it was appropriate for the protagonist to call his mother-in-law to her face. I don’t know the customs and habits of the north and south or various regions, and I haven’t studied them. But in reality, this is how I call my mother-in-law my mother-in-law. So it is still used in the book. Hope you understand and tolerate. Also, Chapter 5 will break out tomorrow.
