He Yuqiang's current mood... is pretty good.
At least that was the case before the riots in the city were suppressed on all fronts - news from outside the city could not come in, but it was true that the people from the Inspection Bureau had not returned for a long time. By taking advantage of this time difference, a lot of things could be done.
Once the riot succeeds, the benefits he can gain will be immeasurable. Even if he can't, he will just borrow someone to go out. There is no evidence of his direct participation, so he can still get around it no matter what.
At least he can't sit still and wait for death... It seems that Xu Shi has given him a lot of help, and he is calling him a brother, but the fact is that he has been getting worse and worse during this period. In the past, he was still considered "outstanding and promising" "Young talents" are now almost marginalized figures...
"You're smiling like a fool. Get more."
Just as he was imagining things, a discordant sound came from behind him.
Looking back, the eldest brother He Yuzhao was standing on the stairs, holding a glass of red wine and looking at him mockingly.
"Oh, it's eldest brother."
He Laosan was too lazy to answer him, "Why, are you going to Prism again today and listen to that woman Xie Qingyan's lectures like a dog?"
He has some inside information on the other party, so he knows very well what kind of grandson He Yuzhao is like in front of Xie Qingyan, who has a family of five and six.
If we really want him to take over the company, will we be able to pay him back in the future?
"How are you feeling?"
Boss He frowned and thought to himself, have you been more favorable or unfavorable than me lately? Everyone is just as bad and you still have a sense of superiority?
"Gungun, I don't have time to talk to you."
However, it is obvious that neither of them has any intention of quarreling with each other, and their attention is focused on the battle situation outside... And it can be seen that Shen He has done a good job in keeping secrets. Until now, neither of them knew that the other party was involved. Got into this thing.
So after a few words of yin and yang to each other, they stopped talking angrily, turned their faces away in unison, and waited quietly and anxiously for the outcome of the riot.
Then.
Not long after.
The communication bracelet sent a message almost at the same time.
"……What?!"
After seeing the content, the two brothers made such a cry almost at the same moment.
This unusual and rare synchronization also startled each other, and for a moment they didn't realize why the other party was acting similar to themselves.
But the result in the message did not allow anyone to relax - the riot was suppressed!
That means that everything they have paid has been wasted.
"...Zi, this won't work, this won't work..."
Boss He was suddenly in disarray. How could he withstand such a failure in his current situation?
"..."
He Yuqiang, after a brief silence, walked quickly towards the door without saying a word.
As mentioned before, he himself has no evidence of direct involvement in this matter, but this is not enough to let him rest easy - it is certain that there are people with "shark teeth" among the rioters, not to mention that those who suppressed the riots are still "snake" Ring" person.
Do you expect that you won't have any suspicion at all? He couldn't keep this kind of luck, he had to be prepared...
Hiss, that’s not possible either. Wouldn’t it be a bit fake to explain now? But the sooner the better for this kind of thing, why not put all the responsibility on the big brother? How much is a statement, isn't it?
It's not okay to just stand there anyway.
However.
When he opened the door of the old house.
What greeted him was the black muzzle of the gun.
"Don't move."
The leader had a joking smile and raised his delicate little pistol to signal him to retreat.
Not Xu Shi.
It was Qi Maoyang, the young director of another "imaginary number" company.
"Qi Maoyang?"
He Yuqiang obviously didn't expect that he would appear here, and his expression turned stiff instantly, "You...what are you doing? Are you crazy?"
Just kidding, this is the family residence of "Shark Teeth" after all. What's going on with him blocking here with his troops and guns?
"Oh, I'm sorry, Mr. He."
Qi Maoyang felt confident and kept the smile on his face, "That's it, my old man has something to ask you, and your eldest brother, so he sent me to personally invite you to visit."
"...Do you think I am a fool?"
He Yuqiang was angry. Who would "invite" someone like this?
Especially when everyone is of similar status, apart from anything else, this kind of behavior is the biggest insult.
"There's nothing you can do, it's better to be careful."
Qi Maoyang spread his hands and said, "Of course, I won't do anything as long as you eat."
Of course, He Laosan refused to accept the offer, but when he wanted to respond, he was horrified to find that most of his troops had been sent to Shenhe.
And what was left, as well as the remaining defense force in the old house, had long been controlled by the "imaginary number" people.
"What? So if I don't go, you still want to invite me with a gun?"
He realized something was wrong, but still looked at Qi Maoyang with a look of anger and said.
"That's it, if everyone doesn't look up and looks down, you must do something absolutely right, don't you want to break up?"
He Yuzhao's question came from behind - this guy came a step behind and now he realizes what happened.
It was rare for the two brothers to have the same opinion on one thing.
Qi Maoyang was not in a hurry and stared at them with a smile, not showing any signs of being frightened.
"Then what if I come to invite you in person?"
After a moment of confrontation between the two sides, another deep voice sounded not far away.
I saw a middle-aged man in a robe and mandarin jacket walking through the crowd, looking at the two brothers with a half-smile but not a smile, and said.
"Dad? Why are you here?"
When he saw him, Qi Maoyang himself was a little surprised, let alone the He brothers.
This is an existence that rarely appears in front of the public - Qi Maoyang's father Qi Kang is also the nominal chairman of "Imaginary Numbers".
"Oh, nothing."
Qi Kang waved his hand, "Aren't you afraid that you won't be polite? And I thought about it, not only the two nephews of the He family, but also your Uncle He must be invited... Then I can't come in person, otherwise people will say What should we do if our family members don't know how to be polite?"
After that, he stabbed his son on the forehead twice, "Look, it really turned out to be a joke, right?"
"Yes, yes, that's what father taught me."
Qi Maoyang accepted the lesson humbly, but the father and son couldn't help laughing at the same time.
When things have evolved to this point, no matter how slow the He brothers react, they still know what happened.
Who doesn't know that your "imaginary number" has always been ranked last among the six major financial groups? How dare you do this without anyone else's permission?
This must have been Xu Shi's greeting in advance... The fact is that Qi Maoyang has been very close to "Snake Ring" recently, and he has been acting like a loser all day long.
Or maybe it's because the Qi family father and son also had some inside information, so they took advantage of every opportunity to show their loyalty to "Snake Ring"?
"Okay, two great nephews."
Qi Kang leisurely said, "It's indeed offensive for us to come here to disturb you, but would you still like to ask Brother He to come out and come with me?"
"Well, my father is ill and is recuperating at home..."
He Yuzhao struggled hard.
"It's okay, you can take care of yourself at my place."
Qi Kang pretended to be a caring elder, but the troops behind him all loaded their bullets.
"……walk slowly."
He Yuqiang pouted, the fact is that they can only be at the mercy of others now.
It seems that something will happen if you hold on to your posture... Then instead of letting yourself be beaten into a sieve, it won't be a problem to work on your father.
So within a moment, he saw the haggard He Jiayuan lying on the bed and being pushed out with the help of his servants.
It's interesting to say that Mr. He was already seriously ill, and his condition worsened after he managed to attend the last meeting. He was still half-conscious and had no idea what was going on outside during this period.
However, perhaps he noticed it instinctively and opened his eyes in confusion when he was pushed out.
"...Qi Kang?"
He was still very surprised when he saw the person coming, and asked feebly - it could be seen that the big director of the "Imagine Number" family had indeed disappeared for a long time.
"Ah, Brother He."
Qi Kang smiled apologetically and shook his head helplessly, "Go to my place and have a chat. I'll tell you the rest slowly."
In fact, there was no need for him to explain. When Mr. He saw the scene around him and the two boys who were also controlled and had their heads drooped like quails, he probably had an idea in his mind.
He didn't look too surprised, maybe he had expected it.
So he just sighed intermittently, and then closed his eyes again.
They said they were inviting people, but in fact the nature of the Qi family's father and son coming here was almost the same as ransacking their homes.
Seeing the He family being packed into cars, Qi Maoyang couldn't help but ask one more question.
"Dad, what do you say now?"
"What else can I say?"
Qi Kang turned his neck and gestured to him.
It's just that the direction is not his own territory, but the location of the "Snake Ring".
"Huh? Just...just hand them over to Xu Shi?"
Qi Maoyang blinked.
In fact, the situation of "imaginary numbers" is the latter - Xu Shi didn't even say hello to them from the beginning to the end, let alone instruct them to do this.
However, they have always been sensitive and vigilant about this, so Qi Maoyang was already aware of the seriousness of the matter when the riots outside the city started, and he has been waiting for the opportunity to do something.
There's no better time than now.
And obviously, he must have his own little thoughts when he asked such a question... The person who controls the "Shark Teeth" first is better than simply watching from the sidelines, but just sending people to Xu Shi's place like this Wouldn't it be better to go? In fact, you can take the opportunity to talk about conditions and so on. As long as it is not too excessive, it is a good thing for "imaginary numbers".
Otherwise, wouldn’t it really be a waste of time for adults?
"if not?"
Faced with the elder's question, Qi Kang just smiled and said, "Let me ask you, where do you stand in regard to the current matter? Are you still Xu Shi's opponent? Or are you staying neutral?"
"...That must be Xu Shi's side."
This question was nothing to think about, and Qi Maoyang immediately answered it.
"In that case, what's the problem with giving him the person he wants?"
Qi Kang continued, "Or do you want to use this little bargaining chip to arm-wrestle with him?"
"I……"
Qi Maoyang couldn't answer.
"Since you don't have this idea, then don't create unnecessary complications, understand?"
Qi Kang patted his son on the shoulder, "It's enough for us to do this, and we can leave the rest alone."
"As for the benefits... We have already done such a thing, are you still afraid that he will lose ours? It will be annoying if you reach out to ask for it... I have raised you so big, and I don't see what you have to unify the night. Sin City’s ambition, right?”
Qi Maoyang nodded and shook his head. He did not have such thoughts.
"That's fine, that's fine as far as it goes."
Qi Kang was not angry when he heard this. On the contrary, he was very pleased, "Your father and I are the same. We have no ambitions... Since you don't have such ambitions, don't let others think you do."
"I remember you told me before that there would be a lot of benefits to following Xu Shi, right? Why are you so stupid at this juncture?"
"...This is what my father taught me."
Qi Maoyang also understood and nodded in agreement.
"You still have to practice."
Qi Kang patted him on the shoulder again, "You're still a little cold."
"yes."
"Okay, why are you being so reserved? Don't worry about the rest of the matter. I'll just go and negotiate with Xu Shi myself."
Qi Kang smiled and said, "Stop standing there stupidly and go take stock of this place again."
"good."
Qi Maoyang hurriedly responded, but before he could move, he saw someone walking towards him.
Just by looking at his appearance, you can tell he is a "snake ring" person.
"Dong Qi, little Dong Qi."
The visitor greeted them politely.
"Who are you?"
Qi Maoyang had no impression of him.
"I'm Xue Zhao, the leader of the "Snake Ring" field team. "
The man cupped his hands and said, "Director Xu sent me to keep an eye on Shark Teeth, and he also told me that if the "imaginary number" people come, let them handle the matter. "
"But Director Xu also said that proper inquiries are still needed, such as handing the person over to us directly? I thought so, this kind of dirty work is not suitable for you to do it yourself, so we should do it That’s good.”
"...That's just right. I'll leave it to Team Leader Xue."
Qi Kang came to his senses first and responded politely, not looking down on Xue Zhao because of his identity.
Qi Maoyang on the side was a little scared - good guy, it turns out that Xu Shi's people are always here!
And the other person's words also explained a lot.
For example, the people from "Snake Ring" arrived earlier than them.
And what is this secret observation? In fact, I also want to see what role I will maintain in this turmoil, right?
If you really follow your own ideas, I'm afraid the nature of the so-called "help from friends and businessmen" will change by then...
The fact is that with the strength of "Imaginary Number", it is not easy to compete with "Snake Ring". Even though the relationship seems to be good now, who knows what Xu Shi thinks?
I have fired employees before because they walked in with their left foot first. Some things are better not done. Once you want to make a fuss about it, anything will be an excuse.
Thinking of this, he even felt that his previous plan was childish and stupid.
"Why is Xiao Qi so nervous?"
Seeing this, Xue Zhao just smiled and said, "Director Xu has long said that you and he are friends. If you really did something for him, it would be too late to thank you."
"But if it's really convenient, do you two have time to go back with me?"
"What to do?"
Qi Maoyang felt like his mind was in a mess.
"Director Xu didn't tell me the details. He also told me that it doesn't matter if the two of them don't go."
Xue Zhao said respectfully.
"He only said that there is still a good show to watch."
