The Waldorf Astoria Hotel is on nearby Dong'anmen Street, which is very lively next to Wangfujing. It is also very close to Beichizi Street, only a ten-minute drive. Tomorrow morning, Lingnan Sujia and Southwest Sujia will be there. It is very convenient to help people come to the Su family's old house.
The most famous and luxurious thing about the Waldorf Astoria Hotel is the Waldorf Astoria Hotel courtyard house in the alley behind the hotel building. Top-quality courtyard houses are originally a scarce resource in Beijing. Waldorf Astoria can also purchase two courtyard houses behind the hotel building and transform them into Huatong Hotel. The most famous courtyard hotel in Erdorf, it shows that their ability is really not small.
The two closely connected courtyards are divided into East and West courtyards. The Waldorf Astoria Hotel was designed and constructed based on the architectural elements of the traditional courtyards at the royal palace level in the Ming Dynasty, and then was given artistic decoration and cultural connotation.
From the outside, the two courtyards look like very traditional Beijing courtyards. The courtyards are mainly decorated with two vermilion colors, blue bricks and gray tiles, gold thread Su paintings, and bright red paint and oil decorations. The overall look is very majestic, except There is also a secret passage connected to the main Waldorf building in front.
However, the interior of the courtyard is very modern, just like the modern and retro culture of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel.
The west courtyard of the courtyard is an independent villa with its own private swimming pool, etc., while the east courtyard is a two-bedroom suite of 120 square meters, and three one-bedroom suites of 100 square meters.
Today, the courtyard of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel has been fully booked by the Lingnan Su family and the Southwest Su family. The Lingnan Su family lives in an independent villa in the west courtyard, and the Southwest Su family lives in the west courtyard. This makes it very convenient for both parties to meet and talk.
The Su family in Southwest China has no scruples at all and doesn't care what anyone says, so they just label themselves as a lackey of the Su family in Lingnan.
What's wrong with being a lackey? As long as there is meat to eat and soup to drink, not everyone can be a lackey of the Lingnan Su family. What's wrong with the Southwest Su family being a lackey for the Lingnan Su family? They have made a lot of money these years. . .Ь.
I think back then, the Southwest Su family was just a branch of the Lingnan Su family. They just did some tea reselling business in Dianzhou to make a living. But now how powerful their Southwest Su family is, not only with the help of the Lingnan Su family They entered the Suzhou Elders' Association and became a large family with unparalleled influence in Yunnan and Guizhou. This was something they had never dared to imagine before.
As long as you find the right partner for a licking dog, you will have everything you need in the end. Their Southwest Su family is a model in the industry.
Su Yongjun came here as the representative of the Su family in Lingnan. Although Su Minghe is still the head of the Su family in Lingnan, he is too old to travel far away. The last time he went to the ancestral hall to worship his ancestors was the furthest he had ever traveled in recent years. .
Just like the current head of the Qilusu family is Su Hanlin, but Su Hanlin is older than Su Minghe, so naturally he is not willing to come to such trivial matters as the Presbyterian Church. The last time he came to Beijing was mainly to clear some relationships with Su Beiming. , let his grandson take another step forward.
The current head of the Southwest Su family, Su Yuquan, is relatively young, in his early forties. He is of the same generation as Su Yongjun. He is dressed in a very fashionable style. He definitely has the looks and temperament to be a star. It seems that he was still a star when he was young. He has invested in two film and television productions with Dianzhou themes, and also played several guest roles in them.
At this moment, in the living room of the west courtyard of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel, the brothers Su Yongjun and Su Yuquan were sitting opposite each other. The coffee table was filled with various fruits and delicacies. Su Yuquan also brought a few bottles of red wine. He was a returnee from studying abroad. My hobby is red wine.
He has a very large winery in Dianzhou, on the mountain next to Dianchi Lake in Spring City. This winery is one of the best in the country. It contains fine wines from wineries all over the world, of all vintages.
Every time he goes out, Su Yuquan will bring a few bottles of good red wine. If he were not the head of the Su family in Southwest China, he would definitely be an excellent wine maker.
Su Yongjun is relatively calm and sophisticated, not as domineering as his younger brother Su Yongfu. As the largest branch of the Su family, the Lingnan Su family is deeply rooted in the Lingnan region, otherwise Su Yongfu would not be known as the young master of Lingnan.
Su Yongjun is Su Minghe's unofficial successor. In general, Su Yongjun represents the Lingnan Su family at the presbytery, and the other two have no objections.
Su Yuquan is now the head of the Su family in Southwest China. He doesn't have any pressure. As long as he follows the Su family in Lingnan, he will be fine. The rest is to be a good local emperor in Yunnan and Guizhou and only manage these two states well. For There is no interest in expanding elsewhere.
Of course, the strength of the Su family in the southwest does not allow them to continue to expand. To the east is the territory of the Su family in Lingnan. They can at most cooperate with the Su family in Lingnan to make some investments. Everything is decided by the Su family in Lingnan. To the north, the strength is chaotic and complicated. Sichuan and Chongqing regions.
Su Yuquan and Su Yongjun had known each other since they were children. They were not biological brothers but more like biological brothers. They talked about almost everything. Su Yuquan did not take Su Yongjun seriously because he was the head of the Su family in the southwest.
Su Yuquan shook the red wine glass and said: "Brother Jun, how about this limited edition of Cheval Blanc Manor in 1998? I feel the taste is a bit raw and not so smooth in the mouth."
Su Yongjun prefers to drink foreign wine. There are more foreign wines in Lingnan and less red wine. He chuckled and said: "I just swallow the jujube and can't taste the good or bad. You are an expert in this field. If you say it doesn't taste good, then you can drink it." There must be something wrong."
Su Yuquan said in a deep voice: "It's not that it tastes bad, it's just that the quality and taste are not worthy of the price."
Su Yongjun laughed loudly and said: "You, you, you still have a good life, unlike me, I can't. I am so busy with too many things every day that I have no choice but to do anything."
Su Yuquan said in a nonchalant manner: "Brother Jun, sometimes you have to delegate power when it's time to delegate it. Don't make your life so tiring. People just want to be happy and safe in this life. You can't control other things. There is nothing we can do to worry about our descendants’ affairs after we die.”
Su Yongjun said disapprovingly: "We all understand the truth, but it is not easy to do this. If we are just from ordinary families, it would be easy to lie back and enjoy it, but we are not good at it. If we fall, we will be in trouble later. I don’t know how many people have to be killed.”
Su Yuquan was silent. What Su Yongjun said was the truth. They were not one person, but a collection of big families. All the glory had been taken by them. Then when they needed to resist pressure, they would have to stand up.
With such a big movement this time, even if they wanted to lie down, the people behind them would not let them lie down.
If they can't handle the pressure, the people behind them might have to replace them, so they have no choice but to step forward.
Su Yuquan sighed and said: "Yes, so I don't know what to do about this matter. Anyway, I have already talked to uncle about what I should have talked about before, and I have also discussed what should be discussed with Brother Jun. Everything depends on you." Yes, you can do whatever you say, our Southwest Su family only supports you."
Su Yongjun said with great interest: "You probably haven't seen that boy Su Qin. It seems that he has seen everyone in the collateral department, but the only one he hasn't seen is you."
Su Yuquan said nonchalantly: "What's the point of seeing him? He's just a brat. He really thinks of himself as the eldest son of the Su family. Our southwest Su family only recognizes your Lingnan Su family. All it takes is a word from Uncle Minghe." We don’t even recognize the clan leader, so what does it mean to recognize him?”
Su Yuquan knew very well that the old patriarch thought the same way, so Su Qin didn't go looking for him, because they followed the Lingnan Su family, and they couldn't betray the Lingnan Su family, so it didn't matter whether they met or not.
Besides, people may think that the Southwest Su family is not qualified.
Su Yuquan was not angry at all. They had figured this out a long time ago, so they had followed the footsteps of the Su family in Lingnan over the years.
Su Yongjun stared at Su Yuquan and said in a deep voice: "Yuquan, are you mentally prepared for what will happen this time? The old fox is clearly coming for us this time, and he is very likely to kill our people in a big way. We have already I’m ready, but I don’t know if you’re ready or not. To put it bluntly, can you suppress those people below?”
Su Yuquan said confidently: "Brother Jun, don't worry about this. I have already vaccinated the rest of my family. If the old fox wants to attack us, there is nothing we can do. But just admitting defeat like this, I'm a little bit Not convinced."
Su Yongjun sneered: "Of course it's impossible to just admit defeat.
We have to make trouble when it is time to make trouble, otherwise the old fox will think that we are too easy to bully. It is certain that we will be cut down this time, but we cannot be cut down in vain, so let’s make the matter bigger and bring everything to the table. , so that others will sympathize with us even if they do not support us. "
Su Yuquan snorted coldly: "I think so too. Just make a big fuss. He makes it difficult for us, and we also make it difficult for him."
Su Yongjun said unhurriedly: "It's the same three things I told you last time. The first thing is that he is targeting us this time. We must let him give us a reason. If we can reduce the losses, we will reduce the losses. We will not make trouble. The loss will only be greater, and if there is a fuss, the loss may be smaller. The second thing is the matter of overseas interests. It’s time to give us an explanation. Why does he take the majority? We need to give us an explanation, and let other bystanders also explain it. I am worried about it. The third thing is about his grandson Su Qin. Now relying on the background resources of the Su family, there is so much commotion in the northwest and southwest. The Li family has begun to target us. He must have an explanation. , we must also restrict this kid."
Su Yuquan nodded and said, "Brother Jun, I know all this. Uncle Minghe has already explained it to me."
Su Yuquan definitely doesn't know the purpose of these three things. This is a targeted counterattack by the Su family in Lingnan. The first thing is to let the old man know that they are angry. If they are angry, they may fall out. If they fall out, no one will have a good time. .
The second thing is that domestic interests have been damaged, so they can make up for it with overseas interests. As long as they detonate this matter, other side branches will also have ideas. Why should you, an old fox, take the majority? We will just I can just drink some soup.
The third thing is more important. They must limit Su Qin's development and be mentally prepared for possible changes in the future, otherwise they will have some trouble dealing with Su Qin by then.
The Lingnan Su family has made up their minds. As long as the old man dares to chop them too hard this time, they will have no choice but to take risks. As long as the old man dies, it is not certain who has the final say in this Su family.
Now they are mentally prepared and are secretly planning to contact Su Yuquan. However, they have not told Su Yuquan about this matter yet. Who knows that the matter is really too big. The murder of the head of the Su family is a big deal. If the news leaks out, It's over, everyone is finished.
Su Yuquan asked curiously: "Brother Jun, what's going on with the Su family in the Central Plains? Didn't you promise to fight against the old fox with us before? Why has there been no sound recently?"
Speaking of the Su family in the Central Plains, Su Yongjun said with some disdain: "Su Jinke is a waste. He shouted loudly at first, but now he has given up. He is a direct descendant of the old fox. Even if there are some conflicts, he will not go to war. How can we? Can you compare with others?"
Su Yuquan nodded and said, "That's true. Su Jinke is too impetuous. He only knows how to eat, drink and have fun before he has the strength. So does Su Jinke know the three things Uncle Minghe said?"
Su Yongjun shook his head and said: "Of course I didn't tell him these things. I was afraid that he would leak them in advance. Su Jinke is unreliable, so we have to do it ourselves."
Su Yuquan cursed angrily: "This coward."
Su Yongjun continued: "And I got news here that Su Jinke arrived in Beijing yesterday and made an appointment with the little fox last night. I don't know what they talked about. Most likely, he wanted to apologize to the old fox through the little fox and admit his mistake. He has been too close to us for a few years, so the old fox must have some objections to him, and I’m sure he will even be able to chop him down this time.”
Su Yuquan frowned and said, "Then he is willing?"
"Of course he doesn't want to, but what can he do if he doesn't want to? The old fox definitely didn't treat us so cruelly to him. If someone admits his mistake to the old fox, the old fox will just show off after he softens his heart. It won't take long for him to turn around and be able to give back to Zhongyuan Su After the family makes amends, no matter what, the Central Plains Su family and the old fox will still get closer, but Su Jinke has only ambition and no strength. It is impossible for the old fox to completely push the Central Plains Su family to our side." Su Yongjun said this.
Su Yuquan nodded silently and said: "Well, Brother Jun, what you said makes sense. The Su family in the Central Plains was also brought into the Presbyterian Church by an old fox, just like our Su family in the southwest was brought in by your Lingnan Su family, who broke the bones and connected them. Jin, it is impossible for the old fox to really do anything to Su Jinke, unless Su
Jin Ke is looking for death. "
Su Yongjun continued: "And I heard that in order to deal with this incident, Su Jinke was afraid that the old man would be too cruel to the Su family in the Central Plains, so he had already moved out his uncle who had retired to the mountains and forests. This old fox approved of it very much. To some extent, I will look at his face and not be so cruel to the Su family in the Central Plains."
Su Yuquan took a sip of red wine and said: "Well, it seems that we are the only ones who have suffered this time. Who said we are not from the same group? Let me tell you, Uncle Minghe shouldn't have given up the position of clan leader to the old fox, otherwise there would be no one else. These things today.”
Su Yuquan said this from his heart. Both the Lingnan Su family and the Southwest Su family thought so. They felt that Su Minghe was more qualified to be the clan leader than the old fox. It was just that there were more forces supporting the old fox. Who made the Lingnan Su family live in Lingnan? , relatively speaking, he does not have as many political resources as the old fox.
This is also the main reason why the Lingnan Su family and the Southwest Su family don't recognize the old fox.
If Su Minghe became the clan leader, no one would dare to mess with the Su family in Lingnan. The Su family in the southwest would also be in trouble. They would no longer have to guard only three acres of land in Yunnan and Guizhou. It may have already expanded to the entire southwest.
Su Yongjun shook his head and said: "What's the use of talking about it now? Things back then were not as simple as you thought. If the old man really has that strength, how can he not fight?"
Su Yongjun knows what's going on better than anyone else. It's not that the old man can't compete, but that he can't compete. Who doesn't want to sit in that position?
These are just compliments from others, just listen to them. It would be ridiculous if they took it seriously.
Su Yuquan smiled bitterly and said: "No more talk, no more talk, let's leave these things as they are. If the old fox wants to deal with us, then just go ahead. The rabbit will bite people when it gets anxious. If it drives us into panic, we will give this to the Su family." It’s divided, let’s each play our own way.”
When Su Yongjun heard this, he retorted: "Yuquan, you can't say this nonsense. The reason why the Su family is powerful is because we are a unit. If we can stand alone, no one will take us seriously. We have too many powerful families, but precisely because we are so large together, they dare not do anything to us, so the Su family can never be divided."
Su Yuquan didn't understand what Su Yongjun meant, frowned and said, "Then what should we do if it really comes to that point?"
Su Yongjun said with playful eyes: "It is naturally straight from the bridge to the bow of the ship, and there must be a road for the car to reach the mountain."
Since the Su family cannot be divided, wouldn't it be enough to change the clan leader?
The old fox is dead, does the little fox have the qualifications to be the leader of the clan?
He definitely wants to, but is he worthy?
As long as the Lingnan Su family takes the lead in attacking, other branches will inevitably rise up. It is not a trivial matter for the Presbyterian Church to lose one branch, let alone sharing such a huge benefit. Is it possible that other branches are more anxious than them?
So they are going to make a fuss this time, and make a big fuss, so that all the side factions can feel the sense of crisis, so that if they take action when the time comes, the side factions will follow the trend.
Su Yongjun and Su Yuquan stopped talking about these trivial matters. After drinking a bottle of red wine, Su Yuquan went back to the east courtyard to sleep, recharging his energy before making a big fuss tomorrow.
Su Qin was about to go back to his room to rest after seeing off everyone in the Su family in Jiangnan. Who knew that just when he was about to rest, Concubine Pei hurriedly came to inform him that someone was visiting late at night, and this person was none other than , none other than Su Beiming of the Qilu Su family.
Su Qin didn't know why Su Beiming came to the Su family's old house late at night to find him, but it was Su Beiming after all. Su Qin couldn't do it without seeing him, so he could only go to the other house to see Su Beiming...
