Chapter 217 Jixiang Tower (page 12)
Li Qingjie frowned slightly when he heard this.
After thinking for a while, he spoke.
"It seems that someone helped her hide her traces. Is it a living person or a dead person?"
"Dad, what do you say?"
Li Wenyang was confused when he heard this. He was a little confused about what Li Qingjie was talking about. Why did it appear that he was alive or dead?
Li Qingjie looked at his son and shook his head. It turned out that he judged that he was too conservative and not aggressive enough.
Now it seems that Shoucheng is a bit tired.
"If it's a living person, then we have to be more careful. If it's a dead person, it's just that Fang Qi's mother made arrangements for her before she died."
"You don't need to worry about this, but now we need to find out clearly who Fang Qi is bringing back this time!"
After waiting for a while and drinking two cups of tea, the few boys sent out by Li Wenyang to find out the news came back.
Arriving in front of Li Qingjie, the boy shouted respectfully.
"master!"
"We have already obtained some information, but this time the soldiers are following, so the specific situation is not yet clear."
"It's just that the news from the mayor is to let us stay calm and stop moving, otherwise no one will be able to protect us."
"I saw the license plate. It's from Beijing. There are more than ten cars, and there are dozens of cars outside Anyang. They should also be following here."
"A herdsman discovered it when he came back. I happened to hear them chatting when I was asking for news."
"Now I have stayed at Anyang Guest House, and then went to Jixiang Building for dinner!"
The boys seemed to have distributed the news. Each of them said a little bit, and then they all said all the news together.
When Li Wenyang saw that they had finished speaking, he counted some money out of his pocket and gave it to one of them.
"You can take it and divide it among yourself!"
"Yes!"
After saying that, they quickly left the living room, and Li Wenyang's face didn't look very good.
"Dad, he's from the army."
"I see!"
Li Qingjie was also a little shocked, the army!
If it were anyone else, he didn't think it was a big deal to Li Qingjie, but the army!
This is different!
No matter how good your martial arts skills are, facing firearms is just a life, and if it is gone, it is gone.
Therefore, martial arts has actually declined somewhat in recent years, and it is also because everyone knows this.
Having good skills no longer brings people the ability to support their families. Instead, they cause a lot of trouble because of their knowledge of martial arts.
Just when the two were shocked, the housekeeper walked in from outside, holding an invitation in his hand.
"Sir, Cui Shouyi, the head of the Cui family, sent an invitation to invite you to a banquet at Jixiang Tower."
"Jixianglou, it seems Cui Shouyi has also sent someone to find out the news. Now he is going to meet Fang Qi."
"Dad, shall we go?"
Li Wenyang asked tentatively. Li Qingjie's eyes were a little wandering, but he finally frowned and said.
"Go, since it is unavoidable, why not go and have a look first? If there is really no other way, we can only see if peace talks can be made."
"If I really can't, I can only give up part of my family wealth and go to your uncle."
When Li Wenyang heard about his uncle, Li Wenyang shrank his neck.
He doesn't want to go, but there seems to be no other way now.
"But if we go there, there may be a direct conflict. Fang Qi won't let anyone arrest us directly."
Li Qingjie looked at his son and had to say that although Li Wenyang was a little timid, what he said was not impossible.
Li Qingjie was a little unsure, then picked up the invitation.
I saw it said on the invitation, you can also go through the back door!
boom!
The coffee table made of crabapple wood broke into pieces in an instant. This was Li Qingjie standing on his head and shitting, and asking him to borrow paper!
It was a naked insult, but Li Qingjie could also see that this was a simple way to provoke the general.
But he couldn't refuse. Life is short, and some people live in these circles until they are old.
The Anyang circle is the small circle of the Li family, the Cui family, and the Zhang family.
It's the top circle, and in this circle, money is easy to make.
People who leave this circle are like the Fang family whose family is ruined.
Unless he is not going to stay in Anyang at all, he must go today!
"Dad, this is a way to provoke generals!"
"Why don't we see if they go first and don't let us play forward?"
"What you said makes sense. In fact, I was also wondering if Cui Shouyi wanted to make us stand out. The reason why he didn't say anything was to test you!"
"Well, you now have the potential needed to be a real head of the family."
"Dad! You are so considerate. The housekeeper arranged for someone to go to Jixiang Building to investigate. If the Cui family and Zhang family go there, send someone to notify us!"
"Okay, Master!"
After the housekeeper heard Li Wenyang's arrangement, he hurriedly left the living room, called a few servants and left.
Anyang is far away from Beijing, so the policy has not been popularized here.
In addition, because the local political and business relations are very close, the so-called documents are only on paper.
It was not implemented, which is why they were able to get the news from the mayor.
But from today's perspective, it can also be seen that the mayor is protecting himself wisely, so it is just a reminder.
Jixiang Building is a three-story wooden restaurant. Judging from the architectural style and furnishings inside, it should be a restaurant that existed in the Qing Dynasty.
The middle of the restaurant is hollow, and the surrounding boxes surround the middle stand. From the room, you can see various performances in the stand.
When the room door is closed, it becomes a closed box.
"It seems like it's a bit lively today!"
"There are many people coming and going. Are they targeting us?"
Xu Jingxing ate his meal and said with a smile. As for what Xu Jingxing and Zhang Baishu sensed, Fang Qi and Lin Jiajun could naturally sense it as well.
He stood hesitantly at the door, snooping around. What would be a problem if he couldn't find it!
"I guess they are targeting me. I am from Anyang and was forced to leave here before. After coming back this time, people who have some grudges against me are naturally targeting me."
Fang Qi explained these things clearly and generously. Xu Jingxing and Zhang Baishu were there to protect them, so there was no harm in explaining things clearly.
Then Lin Jiajun also spoke.
"Don't worry, let Fang Qi handle these matters."
"Her current strength is pretty good, so it's not a big problem to deal with these things."
"Eat! And the real owner hasn't come yet!"
The people walking around outside the door really made Lin Jiajun a little annoyed.
