Chapter 6: L lobbying the wind
As soon as he entered the hall, Jiang Shengtian saw that there were two chairs in the main seat, and his footsteps trembled involuntarily. Chen Rufeng sat on the empty chair on the right, and the chair on the left seemed to be empty all the time. I don't know who sat.
Chen Rufeng sat down silently and saw Jiang Shengtian's eyes fall on the empty chair next to him. He raised his hand and said, "Mr. Jiang, please!"
Jiang Shengtian suddenly came to his senses, withdrew his eyes and sat in the guest seat.
Hu Jiuwei and Tianfeng Sanjie also sat down separately. After that, Chai Yuanlang and Liu Hong also came one after another. When they saw Jiang Shengtian on the seat, they were shocked and their faces were happy. Then they saw the empty chair next to Chen Rufeng. They saw that the atmosphere in the hall was not harmonious. On the contrary, it was a little dignified, and the joy suddenly disappeared. .
"Lord!" The two saluted in unison.
"Two guardians, take your seat." Chen Rufeng said, and the two also quickly sat down and looked at Jiang Shengtian nervously. They looked back and forth between him and Chen Rufeng. They were surprised to find that their expressions were almost the same, like a mold falling out, a little stiff and a little embarrassed.
"This time Mr. Jiang came to discuss cooperation with us on behalf of the prime minister's mansion. It is related to the great cause of the gang. I can't make a judgment alone. I will gather everyone to come and discuss it together." Chen Rufeng, as the leader of the group, glanced at Jiang Shengtian and closed his lips.
Liu Hong and Chai Yuanlang suddenly realized, staring at Jiang Shengtian, and their eyes were full of disbelief.
Jiang Shengtian seemed to have a guilty conscience and did not pick up their eyes. He just looked at Chen Rufeng and said, "Master Chen, our Prime Minister is very sincere to cooperate with your help. I hope your help can consider it carefully."
Listening to such words, a strange feeling filled the hearts of several Tianfeng gang elders, especially Chen Rufeng. His heart became heavier and heavier. He had been looking at Jiang Shengtian strangely, as if to see if his words really came from the bottom of his heart.
"Okay, why do you think we should cooperate with you?" Chen Rufeng deliberately aggravated the four words "we" and "you", which meant to deliberately embarras Jiang Shengtian.
Jiang Shengtian replied calmly, "You should know that the Prime Minister now holds a lot of power and stares at the government and the opposition. The Prime Minister has also done a little business. I have checked his account books, most of which are profitable and no loss. It can be seen that my Prime Minister's office is not weak in the business field. Coupled with the prestige of the Prime Minister, the layers of joints have also been smooth. We have done things to avoid a lot of red tape and get twice the effort with half the effort. If Tianfeng is willing to cooperate with us, it will be much more convenient for the Prime Minister to help and save you manpower and material resources. The three major industries of Caoyun, silk and rice industry under Tianfeng Gang have not only grown on a large scale, but may also open up other industries and achieve new development.
Listening to Jiang Shengtian's talk, Hu Jiuwei and others were also a little moved. In particular, Ling Xiaoyu's eyes glowed and vaguely imagined that when the business of his subordinates was at its best, the silver in the warehouse was about to overflow, and even his saliva would flow out.
However, Chen Rufeng hummed coldly and pulled him back from his daydream.
"If it is really as Mr. Jiang said, it must be very good, and I don't seem to have any objection." Chen Rufeng said that Jiang Shengtian couldn't believe that it could go smoothly for a moment. He moved Chen Rufeng with a few words, but when he saw that Chen Rufeng seemed to have something to say later, he couldn't help frowning.
"However, the Prime Minister's reputation has never been very good. How do you tell me to believe it?" Chen Rufeng said with a little sneer.
Jiang Shengtian suddenly stood up and stared at Chen Rufeng angrily, "How can you defile the reputation of the Prime Minister?"
"Reputation?" Chen Rufeng felt even more funny, "What reputation can Li Linfu have? You are his dog. Don't you know his details? How dare you pretend to defend him here?
As soon as he said this, Jiang Shengtian's eyes were about to spit out fire, and his eyelashes were like needles, and he raised angrily.
Hu Jiuwei also panicked for a moment and felt that Chen Rufeng was rude. He reminded Chen Rufeng: "Master, insult the court and order officials..."
"I wonder why he can make you so loyal and even replace your conscience to speak well for him? Reputation, reputation, hehe..." Chen Rufeng ignored Hu Jiuwei's reminder, but laughed at it a few times, and suddenly became very angry in the hall.
A few changes flashed in Jiang Shengtian's eyes and raised his sharp chin. "It's better than those unhearted people."
Chen Rufeng was shocked and knew what Jiang Shengtian said. In reason, he was also his fault first. He felt guilty and his face darkened.
"Since Master Chen is so helpless, it seems that there is no need to talk about it any more." Jiang Shengtian turned back to the topic and forgot that the success or failure of his trip was related to his life.
"Well, if I want to do business with the old fox, I will definitely lose money, which is no different from catching a mouse into the rice jar." Chen Rufeng said coldly, looking at Jiang Shengtian's desire to leave, he simply waved his sleeves and said, "No more."
"Wait!" From a sound behind the screen, a white figure came out, and the golden mask reflected the golden light, which was "Mr. Unwhite".
Everyone's eyes gathered on it, and Chen Rufeng and Jiang Shengtian looked at him in surprise, as if he had different views on this discussion that was about to collapse.
Both of them respect Han Ling as brothers. If Ningzhou hadn't rescued them on that day, I'm afraid they would have become ownerless souls. Although the two are now at opposites, they have to listen to his words.
"Does Mr. Bai have any other opinion?" Chen Rufeng raised his eyebrows and asked reluctantly. He knew that working with Li Linfu was equivalent to seeking skin with a tiger, which was harmful and unprofitable to his Tianfeng Gang and would never agree.
Mr. Bai smiled and said, "Cooperation can be discussed in the long range. You don't have to make a decision so impulsively."
"But Li Linfu..." Chen Rufeng was about to argue. Han Ling stretched out his hand to stop him. He smiled confidently and generously and was very sure about his decision.
"Everyone understands these principles of seeking wealth and danger, and you can't get a tiger without entering the tiger's den, right?" Han Ling said, "From the surface, it is extremely good for us to cooperate with the Prime Minister's connections and financial resources. But if it's really as you said, the Prime Minister just wants to embezzle my Tianfeng Gang foundation, and there are some unpredictable variables in it. If there is danger, it is organic. For the time being, we can trust that it is smooth sailing to cooperate with the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister has no ambition to compete with our Tianfeng Gang for industry. If this is really unfortunate, don't we have the confidence to solve it? Don't you have the confidence to confront the Prime Minister?"
Everyone is silent. No matter how big the Tianfeng Gang is, it is just a gang in the world. The owner of the prime minister is the prime minister, and the power covers the sky with one hand. At that time, the prime minister really wants to swallow the foundation of the Tianfeng Gang, and the Tianfeng Gang is difficult to resist.
"We can't dare to seize the opportunities in front of us for those potential risks." As soon as Han Ling's words came out, he immediately moved the people present.
Chen Rufeng's heart moved. He was conceited and thought that he had overcome thorns all the way. Tianyu Gang, Scorpion Gang, Jinghaimen and other snake-like gangs and scorpion-like gangs had fought with him, and he did not fail. In the end, he successfully ascended to the top of the world's alliance and cast Tianfeng Gang from a small firewood gang. To this day, there is no lack of everyone's painstaking efforts, and it is also a witness to their own strength.
Since you have such strength, do you still need to be afraid of the prime minister?
After thinking about this layer, Chen Rufeng's previous idea was greatly shaken, and a fine light in his eyes shot at Jiang Shengtian and said, "Mr. Bai's words are reasonable. If I refuse to cooperate with him, wouldn't I be afraid of him?"
"In this way, is it that Master Chen agreed to cooperate?" Jiang Shengtian looked at him suspiciously and didn't expect that Han Ling's words had such a great effect, which changed Chen Rufeng's idea.
Chen Rufeng's sleeves were behind him and his face was cold. Naturally, I'll see what he can do. I want him to see how I pull hair off the fox.
Jiang Shengtian just hummed as if he couldn't hear Chen Rufeng's last words, but the etiquette was still comprehensive. He held his fist and arched his hand and said, "In this case, I will go back to discuss the details of cooperation with the Prime Minister, and then I will discuss it with your help."
Chen Rufeng looked at Hu Jiuwei and said, "Everything will be handled by the elders."
When Jiang Shengtian saw that Chen Rufeng did not care too much about this matter, he immediately showed displeasure.
Another person hurried outside the hall and reported: "Master, the ghost mansion is looking for seven knives!"
Everyone was shocked, even Jiang Shengtian.
Chen Rufeng narrowed his eyes into a line, and his mind turned quickly. He said to the general gang, "Please come in."
Soon, seven neat and powerful footsteps spread into the hall. Seven strong and knife-wielded men in brocade robes and gold medals walked into the hall. Headed by Meng Qianxiao, they all saluted Chen Rufeng and Jiang Shengtian: "Lord Chen Meng! Master Jiang!"
Obviously, the seven people did not know the changes between Chen Rufeng and Jiang Shengtian, but Jiang Shengtian did not immediately correct them. He looked at their eyes as lacked a little friendliness and a little more hostility as Chen Rufeng. Thinking that the seven of them chased him and Chen Rufeng to the ends of the earth that day, which made them suffer a lot, so they were not angry.
Chen Rufeng and Jiang Shengtian looked at each other as if they had a good heart. Just as the tacit brother conveyed what he thought through his eyes on that day, the two suddenly noticed that they stopped looking at each other's eyes and looked away slightly awkwardly.
"I don't know what you are doing in my help?" Chen Rufeng's tone was not polite and didn't seem to welcome them very much.
Meng Qianxiao smiled and said, "I heard that the leader of Chen was lucky to be recommended by the heroes in the world alliance and became the leader of the alliance. We and others in the ghost house have the responsibility to supervise the world. The new alliance leader has decided that we will not come to worship, and it is not very polite. However, this is the former residence of old friends. Today, things have already changed, and I feel a little overwhelmed.
The "old friend" mentioned in Meng Qianxiao's mouth was Jinghaimen, which was destroyed by the Tianfeng Gang. The ghost house had a good relationship with him, but at that time, due to the fact that Jinghaimen had the intention of harm first, it was difficult for him to intervene, so he had to watch Jinghaimen collapse and the fortress occupied by the Tianfeng Gang. This said, it seems to be secretly ridiculing the Tianfeng Gang as a gang that is similar to bandits.
Chen Rufeng was not very concerned about the sarcasm in these words and said, "Everyone is careful. I don't know if the seven have tracked down the whereabouts of the murderer of the ghost king?
As soon as Chen Rufeng asked, the seven people in the ghost house also bowed their heads. Chen Rufeng's question did not have any ingenuity. His life was left by the ghost king Songzhuoyuan. Of course, he hopes to find where Ruiyun's real person is, let him pay for his life and comfort the spirit of the ghost king in heaven.
"Forgive me for my incompetence. These days, there has been no whereabouts of Ruiyun." Meng Qianxiao said melancholy, and his face was also sincere at this moment. Song Zhuoyuan not only had a teacher's kindness to the seven of them, but also a favor of support. When it comes to such a person whom they and Chen Rufeng respect together, it seems that there is no gap between them.
"I also have a wide range of people, but unfortunately there is still no news. Could it be that he escaped from Middle-earth? Chen Rufeng asked.
Meng Qianxiao muttered with a little sadness, "This is possible. If so, we will find his trace, but it will be difficult to ascend to the sky.
Seeing that there was a dark surge between the words between the two sides, and now they suddenly seem to be sad together. People present for unknown reasons are so strange.
"In addition to revenge for the ghost king, the ghost king had another wish before his death." Chen Rufeng said, and all seven people in the ghost mansion looked at him in a stunned manner.
Chen Rufeng looked at Jiang Shengtian, "He hopes to compete with Ye Zhihang to solve the regret that the previous two have been inseparable."
Jiang Shengtian also looked at him in shock, not to expect that the Ghost King was still so difficult to get along with Ye Zhihang.
