Misfortunes never come singly, this is how Tan Xinren feels now. He received the news early in the morning that his construction captain died last night.

Now, even if he can get Nuomi right away, he still has to hurry up and find an experienced and trustworthy construction team leader, otherwise he will still miss the construction deadline.

After getting the news, Tan Xinren's first reaction was that Xiao Feng had taken action! He was afraid that he would win the lawsuit and get the glutinous rice, so he took a two-pronged approach! Because Yan Shifan wouldn't let him come to the door, that's what he wrote in the letter he sent to Yan Shifan.

Yan Shifan read it again and thought angrily, is it really unintentional for this guy to always use this word? Doesn't he know that some bastard scholars once used this word to slander him?

Yan Shifan did not give Tan Xinren any response. One of the reasons was that he felt that the matter was starting to get out of control, and it was best for him to stay away and observe. If Tan Xinren wins in the end, then as long as he waves, Tan Xinren will never dare to hold grudges, and will still run over like a dog with his tongue sticking out and his tail wagging. And if Tan Xinren fails, then he has never known him.

The second reason is relatively simple: Talking about this idiot Xinren, didn’t he listen carefully to how his construction captain died before writing the letter? Almost everyone in the capital knows about it!

Tan Xinren indeed wrote a letter and sent it as soon as he heard the news, so when he understood the method of death, he felt that he might have thought too much.

The construction captain died on horseback, as the saying goes, he died on a woman's belly. And he died on Miss Yun's belly in Chunyan Tower. Chunyan Tower is Tan Xinren's business, and Miss Yun is Tan Xinren's confidant. If he wanted to kill people in this way in Chunyan Tower, Xiao Feng would have to be a real god.

Tan Xinren was not surprised that the captain died on Miss Yun's belly. The construction captain has been with him for many years and is considered his confidant. When Miss Yun was first attracted by Tan Xinren, the construction team leader coveted Miss Yun. He followed Tan Xinren to work on the project and made a lot of money. He was generous and naturally became Miss Yun's frequent visitor in Chunyan Tower. He is not too young, so it is inevitable that he would take medicine to cheer him up, so it makes sense that he would fall down immediately.

So Tan Xinren's doubts turned into deeper pain - is God trying to kill him? Is there such a weird thing happening at this juncture?

No matter what, Tan Xinren could not sit still and wait for death. He took active action. On the one hand, he summoned people from all walks of life to put pressure on Shuntian Mansion and strive to win the lawsuit. If the lawsuit was won, most of the problems would be solved; on the other hand, Recruiting construction captains at a high price, he believes that under the heavy rewards, there will be brave men!

It's a pity that Tan Xinren forgot one thing: he is the owner of a wealthy group company, so each business has its own shopkeeper; for other construction teams, smaller ones, the construction captain is basically the boss himself, no matter how high his salary is, The price is so high that no one will leave the boss alone and come to work for him.

However, there are two larger construction teams with independent captains. After Tan Xinren repeatedly raised the price, someone was finally tempted and came to apply for the job. Tan Xinren felt like he had found a treasure and hired him immediately.

The boss lost both his face and his captain. He was so angry that he ran to Zhang Tianci's house and cried: "That captain is my apprentice. I have led him for ten years, and I still want to marry my daughter to him! This ungrateful person Thing! When I signed the anti-Tan Xinren alliance, I was quite hesitant. Now I see it is really stupid. Brother Zhang, from now on Tan Xinren and I will be sworn in, and I will follow you!"

Zhang Tianci comforted him: "Don't worry, Tan Xinren won't be able to jump around for a few days, and your captain's fate will not be much better. Fortunately, he ran away early, otherwise your daughter would have followed a ruthless person? This is What a good thing!”

The boss thought about it for a while, and it seemed to be the same reason. He wiped his tears and went home with gritted teeth. Along the way, he scolded Tan Xinren and his captain for not being a thing. The two of them had the same odor.

The Shuntian Mansion was in a state of hustle and bustle. Thick files were piled on the table. Guo Jun had already read them once and was now closing his eyes in deep thought. Wang Tuiguan walked into the room and called softly: "Sir, are you looking for me?"

Guo Jun opened his eyes: "Ah, Lao Wang, I heard that you live next door to Xiao Feng's house?"

Official Wang replied calmly: "Yes, sir, I am Lao Wang, who lives next door to Xiao Zhenzhen's house. I wonder what your orders are?"

Guo Jun thought for a while: "What is Xiao Feng like? You have been neighbors with him for many years, so you should know his character."

Wang Tuiguan thought for a while: "Sir, actually I can't see through it. When his father Xiao Wannian was alive, Xiao Feng was a nerd. Because he lived next door, I could see him all the time. Really. He was in a daze. After Xiao Wannian's death, he also kept reading all day long, relying entirely on his family's servants to support him.

But this year, for some reason, I suddenly seemed like a different person. Not only did I behave in a well-mannered, free and easy manner, but my literary talent was amazing, and I also learned Taoism. You have also seen that in less than half a year, he became an official and became a real person. It is really amazing. "

Guo Jun coughed: "What is his character like?" This is what Guo Jun cares about.

Wang Tuiguan thought for a longer time this time, and it took him a long time to say decisively: "Sir, although Xiaguan doesn't have much contact with Xiao Feng, Xiaguan thinks that Xiao Feng is a good person. Although his behavior is very different from before, but Everything he does is done openly and aboveboard, and despite his reputation, he has never used his power to bully others."

Guo Jun nodded: "I understand, go and do your work. By the way, what are you busy with?"

Wang Tuiguan was about to leave, so he quickly stopped and reported: "Come back to your lord, Mr. An has arrested the officer and asked the subordinate to investigate the Chunyan Tower murder case."

Guo Jun frowned: "This girl hasn't given up yet? Do you think this is a murder case?"

Wang Tuiguan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Xiaguan doesn't think it's the case. The deceased, Xianguan and Gu Zuo, have both experienced the corpse. It is true that he died of exhalation. There are no other abnormalities. In fact, Capt. An also agrees with this conclusion, but she I feel that this person has a special status, and if he dies at this juncture, there is no guarantee that it was not the work of his enemies."

Guo Jun sighed: "I guess she just doesn't like Xiao Feng, and always feels that this matter has something to do with Xiao Feng. Since you think Xiao Feng is a good person, try to persuade her when you can. You usually work together and have a good relationship. I always Listen to her praise you for being serious about your work."

Wang Tuiguan said a few words of modesty happily and retired. Guo Jun flipped through the file again and picked up the two invitations at the bottom of the file. One was for Zhao Wenhua's birthday and the other was for Tan Tong's birthday. He didn't know if these two people were really such a coincidence that they even arrived for their birthdays. In one month.

Guo Jun smiled bitterly and put away the two invitations and ordered his servants: "Ask the butler to prepare two gifts and send them to the two adults respectively. Just say that I am not feeling well and cannot come to congratulate you in person."

After receiving the reply, Tan Tong was so angry that he slammed the table, but there was nothing he could do. Zhao Wenhua was able to keep his composure. Looking at Tan Xinren who was like an ant on a hot pot, he frowned and said, "Guo Jun is an old fox. We can only ensure that Shilang Tan and I suppress him and he will not favor Xiao Feng. But if we let him blatantly It's probably difficult to favor you. Donglou refuses to come forward, so this matter is really troublesome."

Tan Xinren gritted his teeth: "When I gave the money to him, he took it easily. Now he doesn't care whether I live or die! I..." He wanted to say something harsh, but Yan Shifan's one-eyed smile suddenly appeared in front of him. It withered.

Zhao Wenhua was a cunning person after all. He thought for a while and whispered something in Tan Xinren's ear. Although there was no one else present, Zhao Wenhua was still very careful for fear of being overheard.

Tan Xinren's eyes gradually brightened and he nodded repeatedly.

The next day, rumors spread in the capital that the contest between Zhang Tianci and Tan Xinren seemed to be a business war between the two, but in fact it was just a game between big shots.

After Xiao Feng stole the show at the Taoism Conference, people not only regarded him as the number one person in the Taoist sect, but also regarded him as the smartest person in the world. Originally, this title was given to Yan Shifan Yan Donglou, who was known to the world as a prodigy. Even Jiajing praised him, saying that Yan Shifan's talent was rare in the world.

So Yan Shifan and Xiao Feng each control a chess piece and play this game. Whoever wins will be the smartest person in the world. Although the loser has nothing to lose, from now on he has to be content with others and can no longer claim to be a genius.

At this time, Yan Shifan sent people to find Tan Xinren to report back. Tan Xinren was preparing gifts for Yan Shifan's birthday and was running around but could not find anyone.

A smile appeared on Yan Shifan's cold face: "He wanted to take advantage of me, but he was also afraid that I would kill him later, so he wanted to use one hundred thousand taels of silver to calm me down. That's all, I'll settle the score with him later. For now, I'll just go with Xiao Let’s play chess next to Feng.”
