Chapter 588: Taking advantage of the situation

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Finally seeing the grand blueprint of Jiangnan Company, the two shareholders Jiang Xueying and Hua Boxhen were very excited.

    The two of them had been discussing with Zhao Hao all afternoon how these plans should be implemented. After dinner, they still had unfinished business and wanted to hold a candle-lit night talk with Mr. Zhao.

    Zhao Hao hasn¡¯t taken a nap for three days in a row and is extremely sleepy.

    "The days are long, so there is no need to finish chatting all day long." Mr. Zhao yawned and said, "It's getting dark, it's time to sleep."

    "Let's talk for a while. What's the point of sleeping?" Hua Boxhen's mind was filled with the first, second and third phases of the project.  Those are all major projects that will benefit the present generation and benefit the future!

    His eyes were glowing green with excitement, how could he be sleepy at all?

    However, Zhao Hao said seriously: "Brother, it doesn't matter that you are over forty. Sister Xueying and I are still growing."

    "Uh" Hua Boxhen couldn't help but sneer and said, "Hey, I forgot that you are still children."

    Jiang Xueying covered her mouth and smiled, stood up and saluted Zhao Hao good night.

    Zhao Hao sent the two people out of the small courtyard, washed themselves up and went to bed, but heard the guards come in to report.

    "My lord, Liu Zhengqi would like to see you."

    "Oh? What is he doing here at this hour?" Mr. Zhao suddenly stopped feeling sleepy.  "Let him in."

    After a while, Liu Yuanwai, wearing coarse clothes and a big bamboo hat, walked in with Gao Wu bowing his head.

    Liu Zhengqi took off his bamboo hat after entering the house, knelt directly in front of the bed, and said in a tearful tone: "Master, I have caused trouble for you."

    "What's the trouble?" Zhao Hao asked slowly, sitting cross-legged on the broken wooden bed.

    "Xu Kun suddenly came back from Songjiang at noon yesterday" Liu Zhengqi told Zhao Hao what happened yesterday with a pair of dark circles under his eyes.

    "It's interesting." When Zhao Hao heard this, he didn't get angry and said with a smile: "I heard that the Xu family was behind the previous troubles in Kunshan. I didn't even have time to settle the score with them, so I came here myself."

    Liu Zhengqi saw Zhao Hao's reaction and thought that indeed, this young man would not be intimidated by the Xu family's name.

    "But Mr. Liu, why are you talking about what happened yesterday today?" Zhao Hao didn't take the Xu family's affairs to heart at all, and was still in the mood to tease Mr. Liu.

    "This, this" Liu Zhengqi said in a trembling voice while wiping his sweat: "My lord, my lord, the Xu family is too powerful. Xiao Ke thought about it all night before making a huge determination to deal with it anyway."

    "Hahaha, you're not that stupid yet!" Mr. Zhao put his hand on Liu Zhengqi's head and stood up, saying, "But it's useless to talk, it still depends on your performance."

    Liu Zhengqi immediately presented a thick oil paper bag with both hands.  "All the land deeds of one hundred and thirty-seven households on Xishan Island have been purchased and replaced with the name of the young master."

    As he spoke, he smiled and said, "It's also because I have to live up to my mission that I delayed coming here until now."

    "Oh?" Zhao Hao took the oil paper bag and looked at it. There was a thick pile of land deeds inside.  I randomly picked out a few pictures and took a look. Sure enough, the landlord was replaced by myself.

    What?  Why not hang it under the name of Jiangnan Company?  Jiangnan Company has not been established yet.

    ??~~

    Strictly speaking, it was only the second day, and Liu Yuanwai completed Zhao Hao's task, half a day earlier than the limited time.

    I didn¡¯t expect this guy to be quite capable at work.  It seems that there are still two things to do to become the vice president.

    "Get up." Mr. Zhao's expression became much kinder.  He ordered Gao Wu again.  "Give Mr. Liu a private room instead of being crowded with those prisoners."

    "Hey, thank you young master." Liu Zhengqi stood up quickly as if he had been granted amnesty, but still bowed his waist to show humility.

    "Xiao Ke promises the young master that no one from Xishan will show up the day after tomorrow, and I guarantee that no one named Xu will be able to take advantage of it."

    "How can that be done?" Zhao Hao shook his head and said, "How can we allow people to come here in joy and return in despair? That would make us unhospitable because of the large number of people in Xishan?"

    When Liu Yuanwai heard this, he screamed in his heart, there will be no end!  Can't they be resolved peacefully one by one?  Where have the kindness, forgiveness and tolerance gone?

    "Here, you are the owner of Xishan Island. If you make a big fuss here, it will not be good for you"

    "Don't worry, I have my own sense of proportion." Zhao Hao hooked his hand, motioned Liu Zhengqi to come over, and whispered instructions to him.

    After hearing this, Liu Yuanwai¡¯s expression changed several times, and he secretly shouted: Is this still measured?  If you are not careful, why don't you launch Mr. Xu to the moon?

    "Of course Xiao Ke is willing to serve the young master, but in this case, the Xu family will definitely not let me go when they come back." He looked at Zhao Hao pitifully and begged him to let him go.

      "Don't worry, after this matter is done, not only will our past grudges be wiped out, but you will be under my protection from now on." Zhao Hao patted Yuan Wai Liu on the shoulder and took over.

    "This" Liu Yuanwai glanced at the land deed spread out on the bed and knew that he could not go back.  He had no choice but to grit his teeth and nod:

    "From now on, I will rely on the young master for protection."

    "Well, go ahead." Zhao Hao nodded, smiled at Liu Zhengqi and said, "You will be glad for today's decision in the future."

    ??~~

    At noon the next day, five hundred Kinnu gathered at the Xujia Pier next to the Humble Administrator's Garden.

    The Xu family is now the undisputed number one wealthy family in the Southeast.  The family fortune is so large that ordinary people can hardly imagine it.

    Although Suzhou is not their base, it has many industries, with more than 100,000 acres of land, more than 10,000 weavers, and thousands of slaves. It is easy for people to make up for this.

    At the time of Mao, the Xu family brothers led these five hundred Kinnus in ten two-masted sand boats and sailed out of the Xujiang River to Dongshan Island.

    Liu Zhengqi and his people have been waiting on the North Lake of Dongshan Island for a long time.

    "Look, let me tell you, does this old boy dare to come?" Xu Kun bowed his head and waved to Liu Zhengqi, saying proudly: "In Su Song, anyone who dares to disobey my Xu family is not even born yet."

    Xu Fan looked at the lake with his hands behind his back. The spectacular scene of the two fleets coming together and heading towards Xishan Island felt that the depression that had accumulated for several months was relieved.

    It seems that resigning and going home to become a local emperor in Jiangnan is not a bad choice.

    He glanced at his pale-faced son and said, "This is the family business built by your grandfather. We can't let it be lost at the hands of your generation."

    ¡®Vomit¡­¡¯ Xu Yuanchun turned his head and lay on the railing, vomiting.

    "Trash, people from Jiangnan are still seasick." Xu Fan covered his nose and turned his head in disgust.

    ??~~

    After a cup of tea, the fleet entered Dasheng Bay.

    On the pier, people who were building the trestle stood up one after another and looked at these uninvited guests in confusion.

    After a while, boats of all sizes stopped and came ashore, filling the pier with water.

    The slaves and servants holding wooden sticks and iron rods jumped out of the boat in droves.

    At first sight, the people on the dock quickly dropped what they were doing and fled back to the camp.

    Fortunately, those who came were not well-trained troops. They did not pursue them closely. They just gathered in a mess on the dock, waiting to speak.

    After nearly a thousand people on both sides had disembarked, Liu Zhengqi came to the luxurious ship of the Xu brothers and respectfully invited the elders and second masters to disembark.

    "Let's go, brother?" Xu Kun invited Xu Fan to go first.

    Xu Fan shook his head and said calmly: "Just go, I'll watch the show on the boat."

    He is a retired senior official of the third rank. If it weren¡¯t for Zhao Hao being on the island, Xu Fan would not have come.

    Passing the price.
