Zhao Shannan and Xiao Inu Taro formed a confrontation, and only Li Zhenjun was embarrassed between the two.
After all, he was the one who brought the puppy here, but he tried hard to persuade the two of them not to take action, but neither Zhao Shannan nor the puppy seemed to listen to him.
Xiao Quan didn't take the lead because Xiao Quan had already seen Zhao Shannan's martial arts before and he knew he was no match. So even if it was a life and death situation today, he would wait for Zhao Shannan to take the lead in trying to find his flaws.
As for the reason why Zhao Shannan did not take action, it was because the matter involved Japanese pirates and was of great importance. Naturally, he had to calculate the good and bad before taking action.
Zhao Shannan held the sword in one hand and counted with his fingers on his back with the other hand.
It was foggy, and as expected, the road ahead was unclear, and Zhao Shannan couldn't figure out any outcome.
But at this time, a servant of the Zhao family entered the front hall. The servant was stunned and had no idea that such a scene would be in the front hall.
Although he was a little confused, the servant still raised his hands and said to Zhao Shannan: "Boss, there are guards in golden clothes knocking on the door outside."
Zhao Shannan nodded. He was afraid that the puppy would suddenly get angry and hurt his servant, so he immediately said, "I know, you go down first, and you drag the guards outside the door first."
The servant looked up, but retreated as he was told. In his eyes, the Jin Yiwei was many times more dangerous than the puppy.
The servant had just left when Xiao Quan said, "Chief, your best choice now is to send me away quickly. Otherwise, if the Jin Yiwei comes in later, I won't be able to survive, and you won't be in any small trouble either."
However, Zhao Shannan shook his head slightly and said: "Idiots are talking about dreams. If I kill you here and hand your body over to the Jinyi Guards, I won't have any trouble."
Hearing this, Xiao Quan not only was not afraid, but also laughed contemptuously: "Haha, although I am a Japanese, I have also heard of Jin Yiwei's name. If my body appears in your house, Jin Yiwei will definitely respond. There will be strict interrogation in your house. Chief, can the things you have done withstand the interrogation of the Jin Yiwei?"
Zhao Shannan gave Li Zhenjun a cold look and said angrily: "Have you told him everything?"
Li Zhenjun's eyes averted, but he still nodded and said, "Since we have chosen to cooperate with him, we should tell him about our affairs."
Zhao Shannan knew that his servant could not stop Jin Yiwei for too long. He quickly weighed the pros and cons in his mind. If the puppy died in his house today, it would indeed be troublesome.
Zhao Shannan had no choice but to put away the soft sword in his hand and said, "Here comes someone!"
The door to the front hall was opened, and a servant came in, cupped his hands towards Zhao Shannan, and said, "What are your orders, Chief?"
Zhao Shannan pointed at the puppy and ordered the servant: "Take this man out of the back door!"
The servant immediately raised his hand and said yes. When passing by the puppy, he extended his hand and said, "Guest, please come with me."
The puppy showed a victorious smile. He didn't say anything more. He just took the Japanese sword back and followed the servant to the backyard.
Today, only Zhao Shannan and Li Zhenjun are left in the front hall.
Zhao Shannan sighed and complained: "Old Li, you shouldn't tell the Japanese pirates about our affairs. If there is a clue in the hands of others, you are undoubtedly playing with fire."
….
Li Zhenjun had a different opinion. He just heard him say: "Chief, what we are doing is too big. If we can accomplish this big thing on our own, it is like wishful thinking. Only by attracting more forces can we have any hope of success." ! I revealed something to them to express our sincerity."
Zhao Shannan squinted his eyes and said: "Old Li, we descendants of the Yan and Huang Dynasties can do whatever they want behind closed doors, but you should never bring in the Japanese pirates! Household affairs must naturally be settled by your own family. If you bring in outsiders, then You just broke the rules. Even if things come true in the future, aren't you afraid that future generations will poke our spines?"
Li Zhenjun was quite disdainful. He said: "As long as I can succeed, I won't regret my posthumous reputation. Even if I am stabbed in the spine by future generations, it is better than living a mediocre life."
Zhao Shannan did not expect Li Zhenjun to answer like this,
Cooperating with Japanese pirates was something he could not accept under any circumstances. A chill emanated from his whole body, and he gave a final warning to Li Zhenjun: "Old Li! I will only say this once today! No matter what the future holds, we must have a bottom line in everything we do! Even if we die, we will never cooperate with foreigners! We cannot be like Shi Jingtang and be reviled for eternity!"
Li Zhenjun and Zhao Shannan grew up together since childhood. Zhao Shannan was both his leader and his friend. Over the years, they had never had a blushing relationship, and they had never even spoken harsh words.
But today, Zhao Shannan was obviously angry. Feeling the chill emanating from Zhao Shannan, Li Zhenjun couldn't help but feel a little afraid, and at the same time, his body couldn't help shivering.
Li Zhenjun knew that they still had big things to do. If the two of them separated today, there would be no possibility of success in this life.
Li Zhenjun seemed to have given in. He knelt on the ground and said to Zhao Shannan, "I will obey the leader's wishes."
Zhao Shannan nodded and relieved the coldness around his body. He sat feebly on the main seat, waved his hand towards Li Zhenjun and said, "Okay, you go down and prepare. There will be Jin Yiwei to deal with later."
Li Zhenjun nodded in agreement.
But as soon as he took two steps, Zhao Shannan asked again: "Old Li, let's stop. It's a good choice to wander around the world freely like this."
Li Zhenjun stopped, shook his head slightly, and said: "The world is so big, I always want to stand on a high place and take a look. This is our destiny."
Zhao Shannan said: "You have already stood high enough. You are the second-hand creditman and the leader of the Cao Gang. You have made a lot of money just from the water transportation business. Who in the world does not respect you?" you?"
Li Zhenjun still shook his head: "It's not enough, it needs to be higher. Leader, you know that there are many things that we can't help ourselves. Just because of our status, we are destined to not be able to live freely."
Zhao Shannan sighed, feeling powerless. He hoped that he was just a simple Jianghu person. He hoped that he could see all the beauty and vicissitudes of the world, but everything was false.
There are so many layers of shackles on him that sometimes it is extremely difficult to think through them. Even if he wants to stop, the shackles on his body will not break, and the brothers behind him who are begging for food will not agree.
The two of them were relatively speechless, and the former friends seemed to be far apart from each other.
At this time, Jin Yiwei finally entered the front hall under the obstruction of the servants.
Zhang Ren looked at Zhao Shannan who was sitting on the throne, raised his hands and said, "I didn't expect that not long after we separated, I met the leader again. I wonder who rode the horse in front of the leader's house?"
Night rivers and lakes.
