Su Lao spread his hands and said with a smile: "You already know everything. I have handed all my cards to you. You have to keep it secret and help me."
Ning Lao said with mixed feelings: "The truth of this matter will come out sooner or later. Alas... Why do I feel like I'm on a pirate ship?"
Chapter 0613 The Beauty Who Talks About Everything
The two old men talked about many things, from the war decades ago to the ups and downs of politics decades later. They recalled the old friends who passed away in these years and sighed. Life is a hundred years, and one should be able to swim. Ning and Su did this in their lives. They are the founding fathers of the Republic and have witnessed the country from scratch to prosperity.
Compared with ordinary people, they care more about the general trend of national development and try to use their own strength to guide the momentum towards their own ideal country... However, they are old and heroes are fading, but they still worry about the country and the people.
Ning Lao said in a deep voice: "There has been a lot of commotion in the southwest recently. The Liao family kid has made drastic reforms, but the people are resentful."
Su Lao sighed and said, "Liao is a talented guy, but he is a little too strong. As the old saying goes, the strongest things are easily broken. I am afraid he will fall again."
Elder Ning nodded and said, "According to the current political situation, the Tang family will probably be the only one standing out in the next five or even ten years."
Su Laodao: "Although the second son of the Tang family is not the most outstanding, his character and style are upright, making him a good candidate. It's just that his age is a bit on the line. Now the country emphasizes the rejuvenation of cadres, so he may not be able to be the number one."
Old Ning thought the same thing and said, "Number one and number two are just rankings. The Tang family and the Cao family have formed a marriage relationship, which has destined the Republic to move towards the Tang era."
Su Lao smiled and said, "You and Lao Cao have always been at odds. Are you feeling a little uncomfortable?"
Old Ning cursed angrily, "Old Cao may look dull, but he is actually very wise. He saw that the Tang family had a strong momentum, so he went to curry favor with them."
Su Lao showed a bit of loneliness on his face, and said: "Old Cao made the right decision before his death."
Old Ning's expression darkened, and he said, "We don't have much time left. The fate of our country will eventually be handed over to the hands of the young."
Su Lao showed a solemn expression on his face, and said: "There are so many factions now, and I have the will but not the strength."
Elder Ning said in a deep voice: "The general trend of the world is that after a long period of unity, there will be division, and after a long period of division, there will be unity. After a long period of time, there will be a time for alliances. The alliance between the Tang family and the Cao family is just a signal light. In the future, the various factions will definitely join forces to fight for the right to speak."
Old Su showed an understanding look on his face and said, "Old Ning, the Ning and Su families will stand together from now on."
Elder Ning nodded and said, "The Su family is in charge of politics, and the Ning family is in charge of the army?"
Old Su sighed softly, "Yes." Although Old Su was born into a military family, he gradually turned to politics after liberation, so his control over the military was obviously not as good as that of the Ning family.
Elder Ning paused for a moment and reminded: "There is a prerequisite for this."
Su Lao smiled and said, "Are you sure you want to accept Zhicheng?"
Old Ning nodded and said, "Looking at your Su family's direct bloodline, only Zhicheng can be chosen. You didn't give me too many opportunities."
Elder Ning took the initiative to extend his hand and said, "Then it's a deal?"
Elder Ning smiled softly and said, "It's a deal!"
The two old men chatted for four or five hours in Yun Haining's old house. They were both at the age of knowing their destiny and had many stories in their hearts, but they had no confidant to tell them. Now that they had the opportunity, they naturally had a great time talking. They both strived for this rare opportunity to meet, because there might not be a chance to meet again.
Of course, for the Ning and Su factions, today's conversation between the two elders has another meaning. The Ning family and the Su family have entered a level of comprehensive cooperation. Although the Su family is now silent, if the Ning family, a military giant, echoes from afar, it can form an appeal and influence that is not weaker than any faction.
Mr. Ning personally sent Mr. Su to the car. Mr. Su waved to Mr. Ning, then closed the window, closed his eyes, and sighed heavily. Meng Xishan asked, "Where are we going now?"
Su Laodao: "Let's go to Yinzhou and see the woman who has done a favor to the Su family."
Meng Xishan was slightly startled, feeling mixed emotions.
The car started slowly, and Old Master Su seemed to be talking to himself, "Life is like a fleeting moment. Some things are my bad karma, and I must solve them myself."
Meng Xishan sighed. He knew the old leader very well. He was a man who would not act lightly and was good at making plans. But now he rushed from Xijing to Yunhai, which fully demonstrated that the old leader had no confidence in his physical condition. Old leader, is this igniting the afterglow of life and racing against time
Yunhai is very close to Yinzhou, and it only takes more than 40 minutes to drive there. Mr. Ning came to Poqiao Cemetery, stood in front of the tomb for a long time, and then bowed deeply, "Thank you for your dedication and hard work in cultivating such an outstanding young man over the years."
When Meng Xishan saw Su Lao bowing to her, she naturally felt mixed emotions...
The Spring Festival is usually not officially over until the 18th day of the lunar month, so the streets still have the afterglow of the New Year, and red lanterns are hung on both sides of the streets, but the popularity is not too high. This is also normal. Yunhai is an international metropolis that gathers talents from all over the country. It is usually bustling, but when it comes to a long holiday like the Spring Festival, it will become a deserted city.
We came to a Xishi tea restaurant, which was not very deserted. There were a few tables with foreigners sitting there. The Spring Festival is a festival for the Chinese people, and has nothing to do with these foreigners.
Ning Xiangcao ordered a cup of coffee and Fang Zhicheng ordered a cup of black tea.
Fang Zhicheng suddenly remembered something and asked, "I want to ask you about someone. How is Lu Wanyu doing recently?"
Ning Xiangcao was slightly startled, and asked with a smile: "Isn't she your sister? Why are you asking me about her?"
Fang Zhicheng smiled awkwardly and said, "I suddenly lost contact with her. I haven't heard from her for a long time. I just want to know if she is okay."
Ning Xiangcao took a deep look at Fang Zhicheng and said, "Wanyu is a very good girl. She handled the previous golf course project very well, so the company considered that she was extremely talented in project management and sent her abroad for further studies."
"So she went abroad?" Fang Zhicheng sighed. No wonder she never responded after he sent her a text message.
Ning Xiangcao nodded and said, "Actually, I talked to her about it. She was a little hesitant about going abroad for further studies. People are always a little nervous when leaving their hometown, but I finally convinced her."
Fang Zhicheng sighed softly and said, "This little girl actually went abroad without telling me."
Ning Xiangcao glanced at Fang Zhicheng seriously and said, "You are good in everything except that you are too fickle."
Fang Zhicheng scratched his head and smiled bitterly: "Don't get me wrong, Wanyu and I are just friends."
