C932 Fighting Poison
"I've also been thinking about that. This old man can't be trying to trick us, right?"
"I have yet to figure this out, but I noticed something else today. Did you notice that Nan Ye was looking at Master Qi with a strange expression?" I think there must be a grudge between these two people! "
I heard about it before, but it's not between these two, it's the entire Qi Family and the Nanye Family. However, this matter has been going on for a long time, and I don't know the specifics, but if you're curious, I'll go back and ask Second Uncle.
Soong Ying was still young after all, so she didn't know much about the feud between families.
Since they were here for fun, the two of them decided to put all these troublesome matters to the back of their minds. They played here for two days to experience the thrill of skiing.
After exiting the ski resort, the two of them went to Master Qi's restaurant. On one hand, they wanted to have a taste of the local characteristics, but on the other hand, they also wanted to see if this old man was really staying here …
The result proved that Master Qi was not lying to them, or that he was extremely good at acting. When they came this time, he was still in the shop.
Seeing the two of them walk in wearing thick down jacket, he offered two cups of hot tea to them and then said rather familiarly, "How is it? Is it beautiful here in the snowy countryside? "When I was young, I went to many places, but in the end, I still decided to come here to retire from old age. As expected, the allure of snow is unstoppable, but it's a pity that my legs are inconvenient right now, otherwise I would have gone skiing like you youngsters!"
Even Jiang Chen was a little annoyed, but what made him more curious was that this old man could really hold his cool. After chatting so much, he was actually talking about family matters and not talking about cooperation at all.
It looked like he was going to catch a big fish in the long run. However, Jiang Chen didn't understand where Lu Li got his confidence from, so he felt that he would definitely take the bait.
In any case, since the other party didn't take the initiative to mention him, it was impossible for them to talk too much about him. In the following days, the two of them would also eat, play around, buy quite a few local specialties, and every few days, they would take a seat at the company's store. He would also smile as he sat at the counter and entertained the customers, not putting on any airs at all.
After a few days of contact, Jiang Chen felt that this person was actually not bad. Although he always gave off the feeling of a cunning old fox, but he really would enjoy the places that life recommended, always letting the two of them have their fill of fun.
Moreover, these few days, no one mentioned anything about working together. The three of them were like old friends, without any enmity or grudges.
The night before he left for home, Jiang Chen told Soong Ying to rest by herself in the hotel and went to Lord Qi's restaurant.
"I'll be back tomorrow. You have something to say, right? Why don't we find a quiet place to talk? "
Master Qi seemed very confident after hearing this. He nodded with a smile and led Jiang Chen to the back door of the restaurant. They went straight to his mansion through the underground tunnel. Jiang Chen just realized that the hotel was only two minutes away from Master Qi's mansion! No wonder he was here every time!
"Jiang Chen, you came to talk to me. Have you thought it through? I've already prepared a plan for cooperation, as long as you're willing … "
The moment he sat down, Master Qi impatiently started to talk about business, but he was interrupted by Jiang Chen, "Wait a minute, other than cooperating with you, I hope you can help me answer one of my questions. That day at the fair, I found out that Nanye's relationship with you was not normal."
"Hahaha, you are being too tactful. Is he glaring at me? The Nan Ye Family and I are like enemies that have been staring at each other for a long time. "
Master Qi laughed heartily, as if he did not care about the fact that he was being looked upon with hatred.
"You also know that the Nanye family is a famous consortium family. Several generations ago, people like them were pedantic and were afraid that some so-called upstart would appear and crush them. I am the kind of upstart that they hate the most!"
"That's why I came to you to cooperate. Although I don't have any ambition anymore, I still don't like these people, so I want to oppose them. Through my observation, you have the same ambition, to become an emerging power, I have the money, you have the talent, we can definitely cooperate!"
If it was someone else who said this, Jiang Chen might have felt that he was just being perfunctory. However, when those words came out from Lord Qi's mouth, Jiang Chen believed it without a doubt. After all, he was indeed a naughty boy.
"So you've already decided on this long ago?" The Nan Ye family does not develop in the country. If you find me, they will not sit still and wait for death. They will definitely find other forces to fight against me, right? "
"You're really smart, and from my point of view, it's very likely that Nanye took a fancy to that pair of siblings."
This wasn't hard to guess, there weren't many enterprises that could compete with Soong Group in the country, and those that came to participate were even fewer. As business is more important, those that were willing to wade in this muddy water, other than the Shi siblings, there weren't many others.
"But what if I don't? No matter how fierce the battle between us is, it's still not the fight between you and the Nanye clan behind the scenes. We're just your pawns, I'm not willing to do such a thing. "
What Jiang Chen hated the most in his life was to be manipulated by others. In this situation, it was obvious that he was going to be used as a puppet, so he wasn't willing.
"Hey, don't be in such a hurry to reject me. I've already said this many times, I'm already old and don't have much ambition, so all the rivers and mountains in the future will belong to you. I definitely won't get involved!"
"Master Qi, you have children too, right? Why did you give these things to me for no reason?"
"My children have the same personality as me and aren't interested in these things at all. Some of them are going to do art, some of them are going to be doctors, and no one is willing to take over my things. I originally planned to donate them all, but a few years ago, someone from the Nanye Family came to find me."0
"I've spent my whole life trying to build rivers and mountains, covering every industry, all over the country, on what basis do they look down on me? In my opinion, they are just a bunch of gnaw clansmen!"
"But these damn people actually refused to forgive me and started to suppress me again and again. I'm old and I'm unable to keep up with my efforts. However, I'm not willing to give up the fruits of my life for nothing."
"I know you might think that I'm using you, but I'm really just not willing to give up. I don't have any intention of killing you. I really want to cooperate with you!"
In these two days, he also sent people from the God Slayer Alliance to check up on this mysterious enterprise. His children all lived in other places, and the industry they worked in had nothing to do with these industries. He had a total of three children, but none of them were involved in business.
After Master Qi finished, he stared at Jiang Chen with a deep and fervent gaze, hoping that he could make a decision as soon as possible.
