Du Qing started out as a gangster. He was ruthless, hardworking and loyal, and eventually he rose to the top and took charge of Qinghong.
Later, in order to adapt to the trend of the times and whitewash Qinghong, he founded the Qingyun Group, which is now well-known in Huacheng and has great influence in the entire Chinese business community.
Many people think that the reason why a gangster like Du Qing can become rich is mainly because he is "ruthless, hardworking and loyal". In fact, it is not the case. In that era, in that circle, how many gangsters are not ruthless, hardworking and loyal
But why was it Du Qing who fought his way out in the end? Why was it Du Qing who stepped on their heads
Because Du Qing is smart!
The most terrifying smart people in this world are!
They know what to say and what not to say. They also know what to do and what not to do.
Du Qing came to see Fang Yan at this time, naturally because of Li Ya's kidnapping.
When he heard Fang Yan mention the Cai family's involvement, he immediately said that no matter whether it was the inner or outer rivers and lakes, he had people and guns and wanted to wipe out the entire Cai family. People with status and position like them usually kept their words.
When he heard Fang Yan talk about the man from the Cai family who would rather smash his head with the family's Wildfire Fist than trade, he immediately changed his opinion of the Cai family, praised them as good men, and said that if the Cai family did not abandon him, he would be willing to become sworn brothers with them-----
Turn your hand and it becomes clouds; turn your hand back and it becomes rain.
Gun in the left hand, rose in the right hand.
Only by knowing what to do and what not to do can you be a great scholar.
In Fang Yan's long-term contact with Du Qing, he believes that Du Qing is indeed worthy of the title of "scholarly hero".
He is good at calligraphy, loves to drink tea, admires culture, makes friends with celebrities, has a calm temperament and elegant conversation. Most importantly, the brothers around him respect and love him from the bottom of their hearts.
This is also the main reason why Fang Yan is willing to associate with him----the secondary reason is because he has people with guns and is the underground king of Huacheng.
"He would rather blow his head off than let anyone recognize him, which means the Cai family is unwilling to admit this. We just need to keep this in mind. The Cai family had integrity when handling this matter in the end, but they made the mistake first. We don't owe them anything."
"That's right, young master." Du Qing nodded. "I'm used to fighting and killing, and when I hear about this kind of man, I can't help but admire him - because if you don't think things through, it's easy to turn a good thing into a bad thing."
"These are all trivial matters." Fang Yan shook his head and said, "Any news?"
"Everyone has been dispersed. I received several calls while on the road, saying that they had found suspicious targets, but after they went there, they found that they were wrong." Du Qing said in a deep voice. "These people are masters and know how to hide themselves. They came prepared. It is not easy to find them in such a big flower city."
Fang Yan comforted Du Qing and said, "Don't worry, their target is not Li Ya."
"I know. Their goal is not to get Li Ya, but to force me to submit." Du Qing said with a smile. "Xiao Ya is taking the blame for me."
Fang Yan looked at the deep outline of Du Qing's face and asked, "Have you decided?"
"It's decided." Du Qing smiled bitterly. "Xiao Ya is in their hands, and there is no better choice."
"Don't you give yourself more time? Or --- will there be news about Li Ya from you or me?"
"You know what kind of people they are, and I know what kind of people they are. When dealing with such people, it is best to follow their wishes. They can be willful, but I can't." Du Qing said helplessly, "You should know about Li Ya. Although she is my brother's daughter, my brother entrusted her to me after he left. Over the years, I, Du Qing, have had no shortage of women, but I have never thought of letting those women give birth to a son or a daughter for me. Why? I'm afraid. People like me may be hacked to death on the street or stabbed in my own room at any time. If I die, my enemies hiding in the dark, those guys who once had a life-and-death feud with me, how could they let my family go?"
"If I want to give birth to them, I must be able to protect them. If I can't protect them, then it's better not to give birth to them. Although I don't have any children, I do want to have one. So, Li Ya is my only child. She is my daughter. How many fathers in the world are willing to risk their daughter's life?"
"I understand." Fang Yan said.
"Although I have made the decision, I still feel that I should come and say hello to you." Du Qing looked at Fang Yan apologetically and said, "In this case, I can't help you anymore. Especially at this time."
"It's okay." Fang Yan looked at Du Qing, a man who knew how to judge the situation but was also affectionate and righteous, and said, "You have helped me so much. This time I owe you."
Du Qing laughed loudly, waved his hands and said, "You understand me, and I understand you. Let's not say things like you owe me and I owe you. When this matter is over, we will have another good drink."
"Let's be good brothers again." Fang Yan said seriously.
"You are taking advantage of me-----" Du Qing said with some complaints. Then, he held the hand that Fang Yan extended tightly and said, "As long as we are alive, we can be good brothers again."
Lu Chaoge brought the tea over. Du Qing took the cup and took a sip, then put the cup on the coffee table.
Du Qing looked at Lu Chaoge with a smile on his face and said, "The tea brewed by Miss Lu is so delicious that I never get tired of it. It tastes much better than the tea brewed by that girl Li Ya - that girl simply throws tea leaves into boiling water - Miss Lu, although I really want to finish this cup of tea, time is urgent and I have some personal matters to deal with, so I will keep this half cup of tea for now and enjoy it when I come back -"
Lu Chaoge nodded, looked at Du Qing with admiration, and said, "President Du, whenever you come, we will serve you good tea."
Du Qing smiled, waved at the two of them, then turned and walked outside.
He changed into his leather shoes at the entrance, put on his coat on the hanger, then opened the door and walked out.
Bodyguards in black gathered around him, holding black umbrellas to cover his head.
His body rushed into the rain forest, his tall stature and his back straight. Even such a thing could not make him bow his head.
Fang Yan and Lu Chaoge did not see him off. They stood in front of the French window and watched Du Qing's receding back.
"He is a good man." Lu Chaoge reached out and held Fang Yan's hand tightly, speaking out.
"He is a good man." Fang Yan held Lu Chaoge's hand tightly and spoke out.

The wind did not stop and the rain did not stop, but tonight the people of Flower City experienced something even more shocking than this rainstorm.
Du Qing surrendered himself!
Du Qing, the helmsman of Qinghong and the founder of Qingyun Group - the king of Huacheng's underground world in recent years, he must be crazy, why would he turn himself in
You know, Du Qing's cleansing was very successful. He had been trying to erase the gang stigma on himself many years ago, and sold some overly sensitive businesses to others, but used his previous funds and connections to run normal businesses or gray businesses that are difficult to define.
After the previous internal rebellion, he expelled almost all the dangerous elements in Qinghong. After that incident, Du Qing rarely appeared in public, and all matters were handled by several assistants and his adopted daughter Li Ya.
He could have lived out his days in peace and contentment, leading an enviable retirement life - why would he turn himself in at this time
What else does he need to turn himself in for? Besides, he has so many subordinates, so he can just find someone to take the blame for him, give him a large sum of money to help him take care of his family and children after he is released, right? Isn't that what everyone does
However, people who know Du Qing well know that there must be other deeper meanings behind Du Qing's surrender.
Ordinary people can't do anything to people like Du Qing. At that time, eating illegal food made people feel very proud and could make a lot of money. As Qinghong's eldest brother, he had already seen the future situation and sold the most profitable business at hand. At that time, many people called him a big idiot. What was the result
Those guys who have been eating illegal food were either shot to death or are still in prison singing "Eating steamed buns without a drop of oil in the vegetables", and the few who have a good ending and are lucky enough are just doing some transportation business or contracting some sand and gravel plants to support their families - can they be compared with business tycoons like Du Qing
Everyone understood one thing: things were about to change in Huacheng.
The storm is coming!
Soon, more information was fed back to people from all walks of life in Huacheng.
The green and red people were like a pack of wolfhounds, searching the world for news about Li Ya - it was said that Li Ya had been kidnapped.
Then, they understood why Du Qing surrendered himself.
But, Li Ya was kidnapped, so we just need to send more brothers to find her. At most, we can spend some money to redeem her. Is it necessary to turn herself in? What does turning herself in have to do with Li Ya being kidnapped
More people started to call Du Qing an idiot.
"He turned himself in for a woman - a goddaughter -" Those people held a red wine glass in one hand and stroked the young girl's thigh with the other, cursing with mockery on their faces: "Only Du Qing would do such a stupid thing - he has offended so many people, he probably won't survive a few days in prison, right?"
