Chapter 131: There is no matter that cannot be settled

~18 min read 3,532 words

"She said nine o'clock tonight, at Fude Tea House on Pingyao Road in HQ District, and that she would wait at most ten minutes," Mi Zhiguo said.

"Ten minutes.

"Okay, I understand.

"You continue to go back and sell goods, and remember not to mention this to anyone."

Ma Kui frowned and thought for a few seconds.

"Understood!" Mi Zhiguo nodded.

It was still early.

Ma Kui walked to the window and stared at the people coming and going below, his cheeks clenching and relaxing as he pondered.

A moment later, as if he had gathered his courage.

He picked up the telephone on the table and quickly dialed Mao Renfeng's number.

The phone rang for a long time, but no one answered.

Ma Kui kept calling.

Finally, it connected, and Ma Kui knew the opportunity was rare, so he spoke at a rapid speed:

"Director Mao, it's me, Ma Kui.

"I have discovered important evidence of Wu Jingzhong's collusion with the Red side!"

From the other end came Mao Renfeng's tired, annoyed voice:

"Collusion?

"Do you have evidence?"

"My men saw Wu Jingzhong and Military Mediation Director Deng Ming having tea at Donghai Tea House," Ma Kui said.

"Seeing them have tea is evidence?

"The Military Mediation is currently underway; Wu Jingzhong talking to a Military Mediation representative, what kind of evidence is that?

"Wu Jingzhong is currently highly valued by Jianfeng.

"Don't go looking for trouble where there is none.

"Clear your dog brain before you call me again."

*Click! *

Mao Renfeng hung up the phone angrily on the other end.

"Hey!

"Traitors are in power, and our generation is covered in dust.

"Wu Jingzhong, Yu Zecheng!

"Even if I'm just a dog, I'll bite a piece of meat off you!"

Thinking of this, Ma Kui picked up his round hat, put it on his head, and walked quickly outside.

He still had a trump card in his hand.

Zhou Yunyi and Lin Tao.

During these days, through Lin Tao, Zhou Yunyi had basically wavered.

At least he didn't reject talking to him and Lu Qiaoshan.

Once Zhou Yunyi let go, this number one figure of the local committee might fish out Yu Zecheng and Whether Zuo Lan.

It was just how to use it.

He and Lu Qiaoshan still had differences.

……

Ma Kui had just left when Mi Zhiguo returned to the Second Section and greeted Song Fei:

"Section Chief Song, I'm going to find Secretary Hong to draw next month's salary."

"Go ahead, your salary all goes to supporting your father.

"It's only because Secretary Hong manages the General Affairs Section that everyone's life has become better.

"If it were Old Lu from before, you'd have a hard time getting past that hurdle."

Song Fei laughed.

Mi Zhiguo smiled shyly and walked quickly to Hong Zhiyou's office.

Hong Zhiyou was playing chess with Yu Zecheng.

"Secretary Hong, Director Yu," Mi Zhiguo knocked and entered, greeting the two respectfully.

"It's Zhiguo.

"What, is something the matter?

"Then I'll avoid you for a moment."

Yu Zecheng smiled and stood up to leave.

"No need, actually it's nothing.

"The Red female representative Whether Zuo Lan asked me to contact Captain Ma, and they are meeting at Fude Tea House on Pingyao Road in HQ District at nine o'clock tonight," Mi Zhiguo said in a low voice.

"Understood, is there anything else?" Hong Zhiyou nodded with a smile.

"I, I want to draw next month's salary in advance; please do me a favor," Mi Zhiguo's tone was almost pleading.

"Easy, Zhou Yafu hasn't left work yet; go ahead, I'll go sign it later," Hong Zhiyou agreed readily.

"Thank you, Secretary Hong," Mi Zhiguo said happily.

"How is your father's illness?" Yu Zecheng asked.

"After Director Ding found someone to look at it last time, he only needs to rest at home now," Mi Zhiguo said with a somewhat dejected expression.

"Old Yu!"

Hong Zhiyou looked at him.

Both reached into their pockets at the same time, neither hiding anything.

The two pooled together more than a dozen silver dollars and two hundred and sixty US dollars, and stuffed it all into Mi Zhiguo's pocket.

"I can't take this.

"This, this is too much."

Mi Zhiguo was panicked.

"Take it, for your father's medical treatment; how is the pursuit of Zhang Li going?" Hong Zhiyou asked with a smile.

"She looks down on me.

"She thinks my father is a burden, and that I have no rank and am a burden.

"She even said Sheng Xiang already bought a small foreign-style house... I have no chance in this lifetime."

Mi Zhiguo shook his head in frustration.

"Zhang Li having this kind of thought is right.

"Women, who doesn't want to find something to rely on?

"Work hard, and when there's an opportunity for merit in the future, the Station Chief won't treat anyone unfairly, and he will apply for a rank for you,"

Hong Zhiyou winked at him as he said this:

"As for the small foreign-style house, you will have one.

"Go."

Mi Zhiguo was a bit dazed, and after bowing repeatedly upon coming to his senses, he left the office.

"Secretary Hong..."

Yu Zecheng was about to speak when Hong Zhiyou threw down his chess piece and stood up.

"One thousand US dollars!"

Yu Zecheng said from behind.

Hong Zhiyou remained unmoved, continuing his pace.

"Two thousand.

"Three thousand.

"It's just the cost of a meal."

"Deal!"

Hong Zhiyou turned back and said in a low voice:

"Neither of us is suitable to show our faces in this matter.

"To beat a dog, you have to look at the owner.

"Ma Kui was once Mao Renfeng's bodyguard and was sent back as a special envoy.

"If we kill him, what will Director Mao think?

"In case he takes charge of the Military Statistics Bureau one day, you and I will never have a moment of peace."

"Hmm, that's what I thought too," Yu Zecheng, who had always been very cautious, nodded.

"It seems you have an idea?"

Yu Zecheng looked at Hong Zhiyou.

Then, the two looked at each other and smiled, simultaneously looking toward Lu Qiaoshan's office.

"That's right.

"Old Lu has always been at odds with Ma Kui.

"I have a job on my hands; a deputy director of the Education Bureau named Meng Dejun.

"His nephew got into a fight with someone and beat them into serious injury.

"Now the police station has issued a wanted order and is about to arrest the kid.

"Meng Dejun's younger brother is willing to pay five gold bars to drop the case.

"Taking advantage of the fact that the police system hasn't kicked us out yet, Old Lu has a say in this, so you can talk to him."

Hong Zhiyou let go of a small piece of business.

"It's not appropriate for me to talk.

"I have to let Meng Dejun and his brother go themselves," Yu Zecheng said.

"That's right, if you go, it'll be too obvious.

"Old Lu might get suspicious.

"He is very conceited and only trusts himself.

"Deliberately trying to lead him, once he notices, he'll definitely turn hostile."

Hong Zhiyou reminded him.

"I know.

"Okay, I have to go quickly.

"Opposite Fude Tea House is Wan Family Tavern; I have to go pick a spot."

Yu Zecheng said, stood up, and left.

Hong Zhiyou went to the Station Chief's office, and seeing that the Station Chief hadn't returned from the Garrison Headquarters, he drove straight to the Naval Club to meet with Anderson.

When he arrived, Ji Qing, Anderson, and the Hennessy foreign agent Jack were drinking tea.

Unlike Fang Min.

The boss of Renji died of illness not long ago, and Ji Qing was now the head of the family.

Since doing the private-label business, with the endorsements of Anderson, Jack, and Brigadier General Felson, her network of relationships in the upper echelons of the municipal and military had leaped qualitatively.

The money in her pocket was even more overflowing.

She had already become a strong woman in the Jinhai business circle.

Today, her makeup was very exquisite—a coiled hairstyle, a pale pink cheongsam—charming without losing allure.

Especially with a little padding on her chest.

The curve, which was already close to a D-cup, looked even rounder and fuller, simply mouth-watering.

This could be seen from the occasional peeking eyes of the two foreign devils beside her.

However, these two understood.

There are fragrant grasses everywhere in the world.

This woman was the treasure of their god of wealth, Hong Zhiyou.

No matter how itchy they were, they couldn't go against money.

Looking was fine, just to satisfy their eyes.

"Hong, my dear brother!"

Upon seeing him, the two foreign devils opened their arms and rushed over enthusiastically, hugging him tightly from left and right.

"We're all family, let's split the money."

Hong Zhiyou sat beside Ji Qing, stroking her beautiful legs with his large hand as he spoke.

Ji Qing had good cultivation.

Her body trembled slightly, but her smile remained as gentle as a spring breeze.

"This is the income from the past quarter.

"You weren't here, so apart from General Felson and the expenses for relationships, the remaining profit is all here."

Anderson took out a black leather suitcase from under the table and *bang*, placed it on the table.

Opening it.

It was full of US dollars.

Hong Zhiyou knew Anderson must have skimmed quite a bit.

But this was unavoidable.

In front of money, there can't be one hundred percent honesty.

As long as there is profit to be made and it's within an acceptable range, it's a win-win.

Several people reached out at the same time and took their respective shares.

After splitting the money.

Jack took out another two thousand US dollars and handed them to Hong Zhiyou:

"Brother, if it weren't for your sales channels in the south.

"I couldn't have made so much money.

"This ten percent must be given to you."

"NO, Jack.

"There is no one who doesn't like money.

"Business is business; only when you take what you are comfortable with and take more can our cooperation continue for a long time.

"This is what you deserve!"

Hong Zhiyou smiled and pushed the money back.

"As I said, Hong wouldn't take it," Anderson laughed loudly while smoking a cigar.

"Hong.

"You are different from everyone I've ever met."

Jack thought seriously for a while, trying to describe it with broken Chinese and vocabulary:

"You are like a businessman, but more like a philosopher, as if you can see through everything in this world.

"Every time I see you, I always wonder if you are a messenger sent by God.

"Because there is a kind of light on you.

"Very charming, very... cute."

Hong Zhiyou laughed happily:

"Philosopher? Messenger of God?

"My brother, there is no light on me, only that abominable smell of copper, which is what attracted you damn guys over."

"That's right, let's toast to the smell of copper," Jack laughed loudly.

After drinking a few glasses and chatting for a while, Jack said worriedly:

"Hong, I'm in a bit of trouble now.

"Zhao Chuncheng, the assistant manager of Longdong Company, is preparing to complain about me to the Hennessy headquarters.

"He says I'm engaging in malicious competition, and the liquor they bought from my company can't be sold in Jinhai at all.

"I'm very worried that headquarters will come to audit the accounts.

"You know, last month we sold six thousand bottles, but I only reported two thousand bottles to the headquarters company.

"Longdong only sold less than one thousand bottles.

"Adding these together, it doesn't match the usual sales volume of products in Jinhai.

"You have to know that in the past, Longdong alone could sell more than five thousand bottles.

"If they audit, I'll be in big trouble."

"Jack, what are you panicking about? Hong has great energy in Jinhai; there is nothing he can't settle," Anderson laughed from the side.

"Jack.

"This is a small matter; you first make another three thousand bottles for the higher-ups.

"If the money in the accounts isn't enough, we'll advance it for you first.

"Send a batch of goods to the south this month, just treat it as an advance payment."

Hong Zhiyou said, and generously put the money he had already received back into the suitcase.

Anderson and Ji Qing also put theirs back.

"Hong, you, you really are my good brother.

"I love you to death!"

Jack was moved to tears and wanted to hug him again.

Hong Zhiyou hurriedly stopped him: "Don't, you'd better not love me.

"I only love Mrs. Ji."

As he spoke, he kissed Ji Qing.

"I love you too," Ji Qing's pretty face flushed, and she winked charmingly.

"As for Zhao Chuncheng.

"He won't be able to jump around for two more days; leave him to me."

Hong Zhiyou said with a faint smile.

"Hong, you are the best," Jack gave a thumbs up in extreme admiration.

"I want to go to France to buy land and build a winery.

"If you return to your country one day, or have relatives and friends, you can help me look around."

Hong Zhiyou said.

"No problem, a friend of my uncle, Sir Edward, has an old castle and manor he intends to sell; if you are interested, I can contact him," Jack said.

"Okay.

"After I finish this busy period, I'll go over," Hong Zhiyou said, looking at him and Ji Qing.

Both were sensible people and stood up to leave.

"Long Er opened a new company; the arms smuggling business can't stop. Felson is going to resign next month to specialize in arms trafficking in North America.

"You guys are going to have a civil war here; this is a windfall.

"You must not miss it."

Anderson lowered his voice and said.

"Hmm, we can do it; let him bring as many guns and cannons as he wants," Hong Zhiyou laughed.

In the past, Old Wu didn't trust him, and Liu Xiong investigated him tightly, so he naturally didn't dare to be presumptuous.

But now it's different.

Wu Jingzhong and he are already one family.

Many things can be done openly.

"That's great, I was waiting for this sentence from you.

"As long as you open your mouth, I know there will be no problem," Anderson was overjoyed.

"Mu Liancheng, how did you and Long Er handle it?" Hong Zhiyou asked.

"The captain of the North American merchant ship he boarded has been bought off by me with heavy money; it will temporarily dock in Xiangdao under the guise of maintenance.

"Once it gets there, it's up to Long Er.

"However, I've seen the things, and there are really quite a lot; if we pull it off in one go, it should be enough for you to buy a manor in France."

Anderson said.

"Tomorrow, Long Er and I will fly over personally.

"The merchant ship will dock at your shipping company's pier, rest assured."

After a pause, he said again.

"Hmm," Hong Zhiyou nodded.

"By the way, this Mrs. Ji likes you very much.

"Jack and I have asked her out many times, but were ruthlessly rejected.

"Even offering a share of the profit didn't work.

"She seems different from other wives; this kind of woman is rare," Anderson shook his head, feeling quite depressed.

"So, you can only envy, be jealous, and hate."

Hong Zhiyou laughed loudly and walked out.

"Are you going to my house?" Ji Qing looked at Hong Zhiyou with beautiful eyes.

"I remember the old man has a son.

"Is it inappropriate to go to your house?" Hong Zhiyou said.

"The two of them eat, drink, whore, and gamble; they play very hard.

"The money they got from splitting the family has long been squandered.

"Now that they see my liquor business taking off, they've started to have ideas again."

Ji Qing stepped in her high heels as she walked.

"Understood.

"Let's go, let's go take a look," Hong Zhiyou said.

Then, he took the initiative to step forward and open the car door: "Boss Ji, please."

"Annoying.

"I'm only a boss because you supported me," Ji Qing acted coquettishly, lightly stroked her buttocks, and got into the passenger seat.

"Yes.

"I supported you, supported the wall," Hong Zhiyou got into the car and joked roguishly.

Ji Qing knew what he was talking about, her pretty face flushed, and she took a light breath: "I want to be with you."

"What do you want to do with me?" Hong Zhiyou raised his eyebrows with a bad smile.

"Get rich with you.

"I know you have many businesses that always need someone to manage them.

"And being with you... is really very happy.

"I feel like I've become younger."

Ji Qing looked at him and said affectionately.

"Oh, by the way, I know about you and Station Chief Wu's daughter.

"Don't worry, I don't want any status.

"I just want to follow you peacefully and enjoy some glory and wealth."

Ji Qing feared he would misunderstand, so she added.

You are truly something, being a mistress so righteously.

"Wu Ruirui has the same idea as you.

"How should I put it, I need you, to make money and... that.

"But you'd better not have too high expectations of me.

"Maybe one day you'll wake up and find that I might have vanished without a trace.

"But as long as I am by your side for one day, business and the happiness you want are not a problem."

Hong Zhiyou never did addition; it was better to make some things clear.

"Good.

"One day counts as one day; if you really leave me one day, I will never blame you," Ji Qing bit her lip and said.

"Go!

"Let's find some fun first!"

Hong Zhiyou drove the car to the club and pulled her inside.

"Aren't we going to my house?" Ji Qing said.

"Beauty, please, can you not be so snobbish!

"If you want to kill, you have to sharpen the knife I am first."

Hong Zhiyou laughed.

"Okay, I was indeed too impatient," she nodded lightly.

Arriving at the room.

Ji Qing was like a well-behaved little sheep.

The cheongsam fell off.

Her skin, like sheep-fat jade, was shining white.

She reached out to untie Hong Zhiyou's belt, but Hong Zhiyou pulled her back and smiled:

"Don't be impatient, be careful of illness entering through the mouth."

"Annoying, aren't I afraid you're in a hurry?"

Hong Zhiyou took her to the bathroom.

The two took a mandarin duck bath.

When the passion reached its peak, he turned the beauty's delicate body and officially supported the wall.

……

Bath pool.

By the window.

On the bed.

The two enjoyed each other forgetfully.

"The wall is supported, now it's time to do business," Hong Zhiyou picked up the phone by the bed and dialed Xiao Guohua.

"Old Xiao, the young master of Renji seems to have supplied liquor to the Japanese devils in the past.

"Take some men and go over; first throw the couple into the Shuitun Prison to simmer for a while."

Hanging up the phone, Hong Zhiyou leaned against the head of the bed.

Ji Qing gathered her hair by her ears, looked up, and asked: "Aren't you afraid Station Chief Wu will say you are using public office for private gain?"

After speaking, she buried her head again.

"If it were anyone else, I definitely wouldn't be so aboveboard.

"But who are you?

"You are Wu Jingzhong's gold master; he is still counting on selling you a few more cases of liquor.

"Naturally, he will be happy to help."

Hong Zhiyou closed his eyes and breathed out.

"Okay.

"I've discovered that things are easy to handle when you have people in the government.

"Things that give me a headache and make me miserable are just a matter of one sentence for you."

Ji Qing said vaguely.

"What's so great about me?

"No matter how powerful a man is, when he meets a White Bone Demon, he has to turn into a caterpillar."

Hong Zhiyou lifted her hair and kissed her beautiful face.

"You are not a caterpillar.

"You are even more powerful than the Monkey King; he beat the White Bone Demon three times, but you've beaten the White Bone Demon five times."

Ji Qing accompanied him in flirting gently.

……

Eight o'clock in the evening.

Hong Zhiyou walked out of the room with a sore waist and weak legs.

Ji Qing held him, her high heels clicking loudly, and her eyes looked at him with great pride.

Hong Zhiyou looked at her flower-like beautiful face.

He felt it was worth it.

It wasn't in vain for his hard work.

"Go back, the house will be quiet from now on," Hong Zhiyou kissed her, and the two parted ways.

He drove straight to Lu Qiaoshan's residence on Guilin Road.

No choice, he took three thousand US dollars from Old Yu.

The matter still had to be handled.
