"You actually know Cao Cao? Have you read Romance of the Three Kingdoms?" You should know that the book Romance of the Three Kingdoms is almost extinct now. The copy that Liu Xun read when he was a child was left at home by his third grandfather, but after his grandfather passed away, it was taken away by his second grandfather.
Wang Yikai shook his head and chuckled, "No, I have never read such ancient books. I have only read about Cao Cao in history books. One of his most famous deeds was that he used the emperor to control the princes."
"You are wrong. He is most famous for one sentence! 'I would rather let others down than be let down by others!' When I have time to meet my second grandfather, I will ask you to read the Romance of the Three Kingdoms." Liu Xun admired Cao Cao very much. He was a hero throughout the ages, almost unprecedented and unrivaled.
When Wang Yikai heard this, a strange light flashed in his eyes, and he said excitedly: "That's great, I have only heard of this book before, but never seen it. I heard that it is one of the four great masterpieces of ancient China! If I have the opportunity to read it, I will have no regrets in my life."
Liu Xun patted Wang Yikai on the shoulder, then smiled and said, "I'll consider your suggestion. If possible, I hope you can go with me to the capital to attend the meeting in three days."
"Okay!" Wang Yikai nodded solemnly. He knew that since Liu Xun had said this, it meant that he believed in him. Smart people would not talk too much nonsense, but would only demonstrate their abilities through actions. Wang Yikai was such a person.
After talking to Wang Yikai, Liu Xun sent him back to school and agreed to pick him up the day after tomorrow. After all, the meeting was to be held in three days, and Liu Xun and his team had to arrive in the capital the day before.
After returning to the office building and repeating what Chen Jiancheng had said to them this time, Liu Zhang and Lin Siru fell silent. The comeback of aristocratic families was really not welcomed, especially for a private enterprise like Liu's.
"Okay, stop thinking about it. This storm is unavoidable unless we leave the earth!" After hearing what Wang Yikai said, Liu Xun now feels more open-minded.
At this point, he glanced at Liu Zhang and then said, "We must quickly develop our own strength. We must have the necessary weapons and equipment in place! We must also convert 80% of the company's shares into gold as quickly as possible, and the remaining 20% will barely support the operation of the company."
No matter what time it is, having your own power is never a bad thing, especially in times of unclear situations, when force is equivalent to power!
Liu Zhang first called the Finance Department and asked them to purchase the gold. Then he hung up the phone, looked at Liu Xun and said, "Okay, I will go to pick up the goods myself tomorrow."
Liu Xun nodded, rubbed his temple, and said softly: "When I came up just now, I heard the discussion of the employees below. Give each person a bonus of 2,000 yuan, otherwise it would not be good to make people panic."
At this point, Liu Xun also walked towards the sofa beside him and continued, "I'm going to take a nap. Today's events have given me a headache."
Not long after Liu Xun lay down, the phone rang. He frowned, took out his cell phone and saw that it was an unfamiliar number. However, he was now being treated very nervously by the aristocratic families, so he couldn't refuse to answer the call. He could only press the answer button with a gloomy face.
"Hello, are you Liu Xun?" a voice came from the other side.
"Yes, who are you?" Liu Xun closed his eyes and said softly. Liu Zhang and Lin Siru beside him also looked here curiously.
"I'm Diyi. We should have met each other in Hawaii! It was your third uncle who asked me to go that time. Do you still remember me?" A voice came from the phone that made Liu Xun laugh and cry.
"Well, I remember. What can I do for you?" Hearing that it was Di Yi, Liu Xun's tone softened a lot.
"Oh, I want to ask, how to get to Jinan's long-distance bus station? I was here last time, but I accidentally got lost this time. I have to go to S city urgently..." Diyi finally stated the main reason for the call.
"... "Liu Xun was completely speechless. Now because of the comeback of the noble family, the whole of China is in chaos. Perhaps only Emperor Yi can have such a mentality? Making a phone call, just to ask how to get to the bus station!
"Where are you now?" Liu Xun took a deep breath. Lin Siru saw Liu Xun's helplessness, so she walked up to him and rubbed his temples.
"I'm at the train station now!" Di Yi's innocent words immediately made Liu Xun speechless again. After a moment of silence, Liu Xun said softly: "Then won't you come by train?"
"I thought about it, but the ticket seller asked for money, and I didn't have any..." Di Yi squatted aside, watching people coming and going, and continued.
"..." Liu Xun exhaled a breath of foul air, sat up from the sofa, and said helplessly: "Stay there and don't move. I will appear in front of you in less than three hours, OK?"
"Oh, I see. You come here by plane!" Di said excitedly, remembering that he had also taken a plane. Liu Xun said 'yeah' and wanted to hang up the phone, but Di's words almost made him fall.
"Then be careful. If a big bird falls, remember to call me and I'll go check it out!"
After being speechless for a moment, Liu Xun hung up the phone and said helplessly in his heart: "Can this become a ancient warrior? Are all ancient warriors so weird?"
"I'm going to Jinan. Di Yi is coming. Maybe my third grandfather made the decision after knowing about the comeback of the noble family." Liu Xun's thinking is very meticulous. Di Yi's coming must be related to his third grandfather, and 90% of the reason why his third grandfather asked Di Yi to come now is because of the comeback of the noble family.
It is now two o'clock in the afternoon. Liu Xun arrived at the airport at three o'clock and caught a three-thirty flight. At around four-fifty, Liu Xun landed in Jinan and then took a taxi to the train station.
Di Yi's attire and outfit were so conspicuous that Liu Xun spotted him without looking hard. When he walked in front of Di Yi and looked at his watch, it was already around half past five. It was unlikely that he could return to S City today.
"Have you eaten? If not, let's go eat first." Liu Xun looked at Di Yi and said with a chuckle. At this time, Di Yi was still wearing a pair of sunglasses and holding a bronze sword wrapped in linen in his hand.
"I haven't eaten yet. I've been waiting for you and didn't even go to the toilet." Di Yi smiled and stood up from the ground.
When Liu Xun heard this, he laughed out loud, patted Di Yi on the shoulder, and said, "Let's go and have dinner."
They took a taxi and arrived at a hotel near the airport. Why did they choose this place? It was because they had to take a morning flight back to S City tomorrow.
They booked two rooms and ordered a few home-cooked dishes. The two of them sat together and started eating. Liu Xun ate quickly and was full in a short while. He unscrewed a bottle of mineral water and asked while drinking: "Did my third uncle ask you to come?"
"Yes." Di Yi's mouth was filled with a mouthful of steamed buns and a mouthful of vegetables. He made an unclear reply. He swallowed it with great difficulty and said, "My master said that the world will soon be in chaos. He was afraid that I would get lost, so he asked me to follow you."
"..." Liu Xun was speechless again when he heard this. He knew that his third grandfather definitely didn't say that. It must be that Di Yi said that on purpose, or even Di Yi had forgotten what his third grandfather said! Judging from the current situation, it is obviously the latter... (To be continued)
