"Haha, Bai Zhe, I am the one who should apologize. I'm really sorry."
Li Xian put down his hand and sighed: "I didn't expect that you are still Du Jingsheng's person."
[Our Lieshang Group and Du Jingsheng’s Zhongxing Technology are sworn enemies. If you are his, I think we should reconsider this cooperation. 】
Bai Zhe heard these words of Li Xian's heart word for word, and couldn't help but trembled in his heart.
[It’s so dangerous. If I hadn’t heard my inner voice, I would have been plotted by Du Jingsheng. 】
Bai Zhe smiled quickly and said to Li Xian: "Secretary Li, please don't get me wrong. Du Jingsheng and I only met through business dealings and doing things for friends."
Li Xian was very surprised why Bai Zhe had to explain this to him, but when he heard Bai Zhe say Du Jingsheng's full name bluntly, he knew that the relationship was definitely not as close as he thought, so he felt relieved.
"It doesn't matter. Since we are promoting investment to revitalize the economy, you might as well walk around with him more and build a friendship."
Needless to say, Bai Zhe was very clear about Li Xian's intention, which was to test his thoughts on Du Jingsheng.
Bai Zhe looked down at the road and sighed: "To be honest, I didn't have any other thoughts when I approached him, because I knew that Du Jingsheng was ruthless and I was no match for him."
Hearing Bai Zhe speak so clearly, Li Xian instantly resonated with him. He nodded repeatedly and said, "Indeed, Du Jingsheng has a complex network of connections and strong power behind him. Even I am not his opponent."
Both companies are state-owned enterprises, but it is precisely because of the dictatorship established by Du Jingsheng that the current situation between the two companies is incompatible. Under the calm situation, there is a turbulent undercurrent.
"Haha, it sounds ridiculous. There is a lot of resistance to holding this concert. Even the previously scheduled unveiling ceremony, few leaders in the city dared to attend."
Li Xian finally spoke his mind, with infinite resentment towards Du Jingsheng in his words.
But just like Aqiang just now, Li Xian was always full of ambition but not strong enough, and was pinned to the ground by Du Jingsheng, unable to move.
As he spoke, he looked up worriedly towards Lieshang Square, where crowds of people gathered in the distance.
"I'm very worried about whether tonight's concert can be successfully held."
Bai Zhe frowned and asked, "Secretary Li, is Du Jingsheng already so strong?"
Li Xian smiled bitterly and said: "Strong? More than just strong, he is simply invincible."
"Have you looked at the security guards?"
Bai Zhe followed Li Xian's fingers and looked at the patrolling groups of security guards in the distance.
"Even among them, many are Du Jingsheng's people. Tell me, how sure can I be?"
"Did this concert hinder Du Jingsheng's interests?" Bai Zhe asked puzzledly.
Li Xian nodded: "Yes, Du Jingsheng loves collecting antiques. He has expressed secretly several times that he wants to trade fake ones with me, but I have not followed his wishes."
"The stone tablet is the foundation of our Hunter Shang. If we give this to him, we will go to hell for talking about cultural heritage."
"hiss……"
Hearing this, Bai Zhe couldn't help but take a breath.
He knew that Du Jingsheng was ruthless, but he didn't know that he was so greedy that he even ignored the inscription on the sea sacrifice inscription in Lieshang Village.
"Come on, I'll take you to the newly built exhibition hall."
Li Xian waved his hand and led Bai Zhe and others towards the Sea Sacrifice Exhibition Hall on one side of the square.
Taking the opportunity, Bai Zhe turned around and asked Yuan Ming to see if Cao Jie and Tang Yanran had arrived. Yuan Ming replied that they had already entered the venue and told us not to worry about them.
While walking on the road, Bai Zhe saw many young and Dangerous people with tattoos of dragons and tigers mixed in the crowd. Although he was a little confused, he thought about it. Jay Chou has a great influence among young people, attracting these young and Dangerous people. It was normal for Zai to come to his concert, so I didn’t take it seriously.
Not long after the meeting, Aqiang took a group of his younger brothers, nodded and bowed to Bai Zhe, and went to the venue.
"These young people are really worried if they don't learn a lesson." Li Xian said with a helpless smile.
Bai Zhe agreed: "Yes, when you are young and frivolous, you always think that you are not afraid of anything. If this continues, something will happen sooner or later."
While talking, they came to the door of the exhibition hall.
It is said to be an exhibition hall, but in fact it looks more like a temple from a distance. Those who don't know better think that it is dedicated to Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva.
When they reached the door, several security guards saw it was Li Xian, so they did not stop them and allowed them to pass through the guardrail and walk in.
It is indeed a cultural landscape built by the villagers of Lieshang Village with their own money. As soon as you enter the courtyard, you feel like you have entered an ancient temple isolated from the world.
Compared to the hustle and bustle outside, this place is exceptionally quiet. If it weren't for the numerous high-rise buildings surrounding it, it would really make people feel like they've traveled to an ancient courtyard.
The red lacquer pillars, cyan square bricks, green glazed tiles, as well as the small bridges, flowing water and Hsinchu in the courtyard all reflect an antique traditional beauty.
First, we passed a corridor with the name "Dian" written on it, and on the lintel above hung a plaque with the words "descendants of Yan and Huang". On both sides, hundreds of surnames are engraved in small seal script with dragons and phoenixes flying in the air. The most conspicuous ones are the four surnames and historical origins of Lieshang Village King Li Zhengxu.
As soon as Li Xian entered the plaque hall, he felt a deep sense of national pride.
"According to the inscription, our surname Li is inherited from the prime minister Li Si of the Qin Dynasty until now."
"Legend has it that back then, this was the southernmost coastline and was vast and deserted. Qin Shihuang came here on his eastward tour to pay homage to the East China Sea, so he sent Li Si's retainers to guard the monument and gave the Li family the gift of making a living by going out to sea to hunt, so Lieshang Village was born."
"However, there is another theory that after Wang Jian conquered Baiyue in the south, he saw the beautiful scenery here and it was adjacent to the coast, leaving the Wang family lineage to pass on. Therefore, the generals who protect the monument enshrined in the temple are Wang Jian and Li Si, but Xu Fu also went to sea through here. Set off and leave some people to live here, but it should be impossible based on the route. In addition, that guy is the originator of Xiaoli, which is tantamount to betraying China, so there is no place for him. "
As Li Xian explained enthusiastically, Bai Zhe and others also came to the main hall.
I saw a few security guards playing cards. When they saw Li Xian coming, they quickly dropped their cards and stood up.
"Secretary Li, why are you here?"
Li Xian was furious when he saw this group of rich second-generation people who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun.
"What? Didn't I delay your card game when I came here?"
The four people quickly scratched their heads and laughed: "There is no one here."
"snort!"
Li Xian was too lazy to argue with them. He turned to Bai Zhe and pointed to the center of the hall and said with a smile: "Look, the two stone statues are Li Si and Wang Jian. In the glass display case in the middle is the inscription on the sea sacrifice we dug out."
Following what Li Xian pointed out, Bai Zhe saw two stone statues, one civil and one military, more than three meters high. Both were wearing long robes and holding wat tablets, standing respectfully on both sides. Their expressions and behaviors were vivid and lifelike.
Akun and Xiaoqi have long been accustomed to this, and they are showing affection to each other at the door.
Several security guards looked at each other and remained silent.
Bai Zhe and Yuan Ming quickly walked over and studied the inscription carefully.
"This monument does look like it has been around for two thousand years. Look at the words, they are almost corroded."
Yuan Ming couldn't help but admire.
But even if there was, they probably just stared at it, because they didn't recognize the words on it at all.
The stele is not big, about one meter high and forty centimeters wide. It does not look as heavy as expected. It is only about ten centimeters thick. It is estimated that one person can carry it alone with the strength of breastfeeding.
More like a slate, to be precise.
"It really doesn't look like it's old. It's just that this monument is a bit smaller than the one on Mount Tai."
Yuan Ming smiled playfully: "I think Qin Shihuang found it casually on his own initiative."
The two of them were studying the translated text next to them. Li Xian saw a few security guards doing nothing and couldn't help but teach them a lesson.
"You can't be so careless anymore. If the inscription is lost, I will settle the score with you!"
Several security guards lowered their heads and remained silent.
[It’s just a broken stone. It’s nothing to make a fuss about if it’s lost. It’s definitely going to be lost tonight. Each of the four of us received 500,000 from Mr. Du. 】
Suddenly, Bai Zhe turned to look at the security guard and took a deep breath.
If he hadn't been invited to visit, Bai Zhe wouldn't have heard of this secret.
Li Xian took this inscription very seriously. If he accidentally discovered that it had been switched, what would he do?
First of all, it will affect the cooperation with Lishui Town.
When things like this happen, Bai Zhe can't do anything.
Bai Zhe's sudden turn of his head was noticed by Li Xian.
"Bai Zhe, is there any problem?" Li Xian asked quickly.
Bai Zhe raised his feet and walked slowly towards the security guards. After finally confirming that it was not an auditory hallucination, he raised his head and looked at the surrounding beams and walls.
"Secretary Li, it suddenly occurred to me that the security measures for such a valuable thing must not be sloppy."
When Li Xian heard what Bai Zhe said, he laughed and said, "Don't worry about that. In this hall, not only are there people guarding it 24 hours a day, but there are also 360-degree cameras with no blind spots installed. There will be no mistakes."
"What if there's something wrong with the person?"
Bai Zhe's light words made Li Xian stunned.
Several security guards looked at Bai Zhe doubtfully.
"Stop making such jokes, how can something go wrong with people?"
A thin man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks looked at Bai Zhe.
But Bai Zhe had no intention of paying attention to him and turned to look at Li Xian.
Li Xian woke up from his daze and said with a smile: "Yes, these security personnel are young people in our village. They can't make mistakes."
After listening to Li Xian's explanation, Bai Zhe walked out without saying a word.
Seeing this, Li Xian turned around and glared at the four security guards, then followed them up.
Walking to a remote corner, Bai Zhe turned around and said to Li Xian, who was about to speak: "Secretary Li, let me tell you the truth. According to my observation, these security guards have been bribed by Du Jingsheng for two million. Today In the evening they will assist the gangsters sent by Du Jingsheng to transfer the stone tablet. If you don't want to lose the inscription, it's best to make plans in advance."
After hearing what Bai Zhe said about having a nose and eyes, it was hard for Li Xian not to believe it this time.
