After hearing what his subordinate said, Qi Yan suddenly jumped up from the sofa. He reached out and grabbed his subordinate's shoulder with such strength that he seemed to crush the other's shoulder blades.
"pardon!"
At this time, Qi Yan's eyes were red, and his expression revealed a bit of madness. How can he look like a noble son before
However, Qi Yan, a confidant, knew the true character of his young master long ago, so he was not frightened by his appearance. He resisted the severe pain in his shoulder, and quickly repeated what he said before.
"Master, there are problems in several of our factories. The previous suppliers have canceled the supply, and the other suppliers of the younger generation are unwilling to provide us with raw materials, and we have spent a lot of money to buy There is also a problem with the machine, and our technicians have checked it and confirmed that the inside of the machine is aging, those parts are no longer usable, and the machine is completely scrapped."
Before Qi Yan's business was booming, in order to expand the scale and increase production, Qi Yan bought a batch of foreign advanced machines at a high price. It is said that the cotton cloth woven by these machines is much better than domestic ones, and the patterns It also needs to be more, and he decided to buy it after some research. Who knew that such a mistake would occur
Qi Yan's eyes went black for a while, and it wasn't until then that he realized that he was being played with.
The machines that those people showed him before were all brand new. If they were maintained properly, they would last for ten years without any problem. But now that he has only been using them for how long, they are all scrapped
However, this is not worse, the subordinate suddenly lowered his voice, and whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "There is also the big tobacco field. According to the news just received, our tobacco seedlings A lot of people died."
Qi Yan was able to maintain a little calmness before, but after his subordinates finished speaking, his eyes were tearing apart, and he raised his voice and shouted: "What did you say? Say it again, what is going on?"
Even though the big tobacco seedlings were fine before, the people below said that this year would definitely be a bumper harvest. How long has it passed before the rhetoric has changed? What do you mean most of the smoke seedlings are dead? The vitality of that thing is so strong, how could it die
He doesn't believe it, it's impossible!
Qi Yan couldn't accept this possibility at all, his eyes darkened for a while, and the hand holding his subordinate's shoulder suddenly let go, and he couldn't help but leaned back.
"Master!"
His subordinates exclaimed, ignoring the pain in his shoulder, he hurriedly got up and supported Qi Yan, and put his limp body on the sofa beside him.
Qi Yan fainted because of his rage. At this time, his face was pale and his lips were blue. He looked very bad. His subordinates did not dare to call people over, for fear that someone would find out that Qi Yan was inappropriate at this time. And because the matter was urgent and there was no delay, the subordinates had no choice but to pinch Qi Yan with their thumbs, hoping to wake up as soon as possible.
Fortunately, Qi Yan's dizziness was not too complete. The pain in the human body made him wake up quickly. He thought that everything before was his dream, but when he saw the anxious look on his subordinate's face, he immediately Know that all this is not a dream.
He pushed away his hands and sat up from the sofa.
Seeing this, his subordinate obediently retreated to the side, and he stood aside with his hands down, not daring to continue speaking.
What I said just now made Qi Yan faint with rage, if I said more, would Qi Yan still have a good time
Fortunately, Qi Yan's psychological quality is also amazing, he took a few deep breaths, and finally recovered.
"Is it true what you just told me?"
The subordinate said respectfully: "Yes, the news has just been passed on. According to his opinion, the subordinates have heard that it should have happened for a few days, but the people below are afraid of taking responsibility, so they have been afraid to report it."
Hearing this, Qi Yan couldn't hold back his temper anymore, raised his hand to grab the teacup and threw it towards his subordinates.
"Don't dare to report it because you are afraid of taking responsibility? Is this done on purpose because of my good temper? Have they forgotten how powerful I am? Give them some good looks, and really treat me as a scumbag. Let them do whatever they want?!"
Although Qi Yuanhao is an uneducated old man, and he can't be said to be very decent, he has clearly said that those who work under him can open casinos and brothels. It's not allowed to touch it, and if he finds out, he will never let it go lightly.
Qi Yan still remembered that before Xu Shaohe, the confidant who was trusted by Qi Yuanhao violated Qi Yuanhao's prohibition and secretly opened a smoke den, and was later killed by Qi Yuanhao's people.
You must know that confidant has been by Qi Yuanhao's side since he was a child, and he has gained Qi Yuanhao's trust for decades, but he was beaten by him in front of such a person just because he opened a big smoke shop Cut to pieces.
Although Qi Yan is Qi Yuanhao's son, and is very much loved by Qi Yuanhao, he dare not openly open a opium shop against Qi Yuanhao's order.
In fact, Qi Yuanhao was a little unhappy about his relationship with Chen Tai'an. If he didn't see him being obedient and didn't get involved in this business, Qi Yuanhao might not be so easy to talk to at all.
Therefore, no matter whether it is a big tobacco field or a big tobacco hall, Qi Yan has gone through several hands, and no one except his confidants knows that he is involved in this business.
But it is also because of several hands, the people below don't know who the master at the top is, and they are a little less dedicated when doing things. This time, the tobacco seedlings in the big tobacco fields in his hands are dying. When it was over, they saw that they couldn't bear it anymore, so they reported the matter.
"This group!!!"
The more Qi Yan thought about it, the more angry he became, and he cursed directly. He threw all the teacups and teapots on the table clean, and the broken porcelain pieces were all over the floor, but even so, the anger in his heart did not show any signs of diminishing.
The subordinates standing aside didn't dare to show their breath, so he stood aside with his head bowed, pretending that he was a transparent person.
Qi Yan's temper is not good, if he later took him to make a punching bag, he would have nowhere to cry.
Fortunately, Qi Yan still had a bit of reason, knowing that no matter how angry he was, he wiped his face and stood up from the sofa.
"No, I have to take a look in person, you come in with me."
Hearing this, the subordinates immediately followed. The two stayed in the room for a while, and after a while, a man in a gray gown and hat came out of the room.
Not long after he left, Fang Jieyu received a message: [The fish has been hooked and can be caught.]
After getting the news, Fang Jieyu immediately counted a few trustworthy people, and quietly left the Marshal's Mansion.
Xu Zhaorong was lying on the bed taking an afternoon nap, when suddenly a thunderstorm sounded outside the house, Xu Zhaorong was awakened by the thunder, and sat up from the bed covered in sweat.
"Cuckoo, Cuckoo!"
Xu Zhaorong who just woke up just felt uneasy, she raised her voice and shouted a few words, and Du Juan, who was serving her closely, came in from outside the house.
"Ma'am, did you call me?"
Xu Zhaorong's face turned pale, and his expression showed a bit of panic: "Du Juan, I'm not at ease in my heart. I always feel that something happened. Go and have a look at Yuyi and Ayan."
Her heart was beating fast, she was flustered, she always felt that something was going on, and Xu Zhaorong cared most about her children, so she asked her servant girl to take a look.
Du Juan didn't say anything, and after comforting Xu Zhaorong, he left in a hurry.
And Xu Zhaorong sat on the bed, unable to feel at ease no matter what, she glanced outside from time to time, eagerly waiting for Du Juan to come back.
After about twenty minutes, Xu Zhaorong waited so anxiously that Du Juan rushed in.
"Du Juan, how are Yuyi and Ayan? Are they busy?"
Du Juan has been by Xu Zhaorong's side for so many years, and also knows his wife's temperament. Seeing her anxious face, Du Juan hurriedly said: "Madam, don't worry, the second young master and the fifth young lady are fine, the second young master is resting in the room. Miss Wu is putting on makeup and said that she will go shopping with my little sister later."
After hearing Du Juan's words, Xu Zhaorong slowly relaxed, but when she thought that Qi Yuyi was going out soon, Xu Zhaorong became anxious again: "No, you can go and tell Yuyi, I'm not feeling well today, let her come and accompany me, don't out."
Although Du Juan said that the two children were both at home and that there was nothing wrong with them, Xu Zhaorong was still in a panic. Jinling City seemed not to be peaceful recently, so it was better not to let her go out and stay at home with her.
"Forget it, don't go there, that girl Yuyi has a very bad temper, I'm afraid you won't be able to convince her, I'd better go along and have a look."
Speaking of which, Xu Zhaorong got up from the bed, and she didn't care about how to dress up, after a brief wash, she went to Qi Yuyi's yard.
If Xu Zhaorong came in time, Qi Yuyi had already packed up and was about to go out, but Xu Zhaorong stopped her before leaving.
"Yuyi, don't go out today, stay with me at home, we mother and daughter have a good talk."
After hearing Xu Zhaorong's words, Qi Yuyi said with some displeasure: "Mother, that's not acceptable. I have made an appointment with Miss Xu's family to go shopping together. Recently, there are new dresses in Jinling City. I have to buy them." If you come back with a few sets, if you go late, you may not be able to buy them."
Qi Yuyi didn't want to stay at home, but Xu Zhaorong, who was always talkative, had a very tough attitude this time. She didn't allow Qi Yuyi to go out. No matter what she said, it was useless. It was a very useful trick, but it didn't work this time. No matter what she did, Xu Zhaorong just wouldn't let go.
In the end, Qi Yuyi was left at home and was unable to go out, but she was also unwilling to talk with Xu Zhaorong, instead shutting herself in the room and sulking.
Xu Zhaorong didn't care either, as long as Qi Yuyi stayed at home, everything else didn't matter.
She kept guarding Qi Yuyi until the evening, today the day was calm and nothing happened, and Xu Zhaorong's beating heart slowly returned to normal frequency, so she breathed a sigh of relief and called Du Juan back.
But when passing by Qi Yan's courtyard, Xu Zhaorong wanted to go in to see Qi Yan, but he didn't seem to come out all day, and he didn't know what he was busy with.
However, Xu Zhaorong was still unable to enter Qi Yan's yard in the end. The guards outside said that Qi Yan had a lot of business to do today, and he didn't have time to meet people, so Xu Zhaorong had something to do to come tomorrow.
Xu Zhaorong looked into the yard and saw that the study room was brightly lit, so she didn't think much about it, but told the servants to take good care of Qi Yan and don't make him too tired. After explaining, she turned and left up.
When Qi Yan woke up, he felt that his brain was hurting like hell. He couldn't help moaning and groaning in pain, trying to open his eyes with difficulty.
However, when he opened his eyes, there was darkness in front of him, and he couldn't see anything. Qi Yan froze for a moment, thinking that he hadn't opened his eyes, but soon he found that he had indeed opened his eyes, but he It seems that nothing can be seen.
The memory of fainting flooded into Qi Yan's mind like a tide, and he remembered that he put on the clothes of his subordinates and wanted to go to his big tobacco field to see what was going on.
He thought he was acting secretly, and in order not to show his traces, he even put on makeup on purpose, went to several different places, and finally went out of the city quietly, but who knew that he had just left the city, His brain was hit with a stick, and he didn't know anything about what happened after that.
The pain in his head became more and more severe, Qi Yan subconsciously wanted to support his head, but just as he was about to make some movement, he heard the rattle of iron chains, Qi Yan realized belatedly, It was as if he had been tied up.
His face suddenly changed, and a huge wave was set off in his heart.
Who caught him? What does the other party want to do? Has the other party discovered his identity? What happened to his eyes? Was he really blind or was it because it was too dark in the room that he couldn't see
Just when Qi Yan was thinking wildly, a male voice that sounded very strange came from not far away.
"Qi Yan, you'd better be honest, you can answer whatever I ask, otherwise I can't guarantee that you will lose only a pair of eyes."
After hearing the sound, Qi Yan's body froze. He looked in the direction of the sound, but there was only darkness, and he couldn't see anything.
Thinking of the other party's words, Qi Yan's face became even uglier: "You ruined my eyes? You treat me like this and expect me to answer your questions. Do you think I'm a fool?"
However, the other party sneered and said, "Do you have another choice? Of course, if you don't want to answer it, forget it. Anyway, there are so many people who can answer my question."
Qi Yan gritted his teeth and said, "Do you know who I am? I am Marshal Qi's favorite son. If you dare to do anything to me, my father will definitely avenge me, and he will never let you go."
However, after hearing his words, the other party did not react, but said lightly: "Since I dare to arrest you, I can guarantee that I will not be discovered. Instead of talking nonsense to me here, Why don't you think about how to answer my question."
Qi Yan refused to cooperate, but soon he tasted the bitter fruit of not cooperating.
