After seeing off Secretary Li, Zou Qingmei sat in the private room where Secretary Li had just sat. She asked Chen Shaisheng to bring him a pot of chrysanthemum tea and fell into a daze in silence.

Su Qingqian, who came from the lounge, saw Zou Qingmei's appearance and left silently.

There is a corner in everyone's heart that is difficult for others to reach, and at this time Zou Qingmei fell into that corner, letting memories fill the air.

She remembered that when she met Yang Zhuma, she was in her prime, with bright eyes and white teeth, and it was love at first sight and love again later.

She remembered that she followed Yang Zhuma to many places she had never been before and saw many things she had never seen before.

Of course she also remembered that when Yang Zhuma left that morning, he told her to wait for him to come back.

But, once I left, I never came back.

She remembered every detail, down to every detail of Yang Zhuma's death.

Yang Zhuma can be said to be an accessory, or it can be said to be the main target. When Mr. Zeng wanted to win down his political opponents, he used Yang Zhuma who had obtained the old city reconstruction project.

Yang Zhuma was accused of bribing government officials, and he appeared as a cooperator in the early stage of the investigation. Yang Zhuma was also very calm. He knew that even if his stories were true, he would be locked up for a few years at most.

At that time, his financial power was relatively high in Quancheng City, so it would probably not be a big problem if various departments took care of it.

It's just that he mistakenly guessed Mr. Zeng's true intentions. Mr. Zeng was like a wild beast with fangs, taking advantage of his carelessness to lure him into the situation. When Yang Zhuma thought the matter was about to end, he suddenly caused another trouble.

Someone accused Yang Zhuma of murder.

A user who was undergoing urban renewal sued Yang Zhuma for instigating the murder of his parents in order to speed up the demolition.

Yang Zhuma didn't know about this, but it was indeed true.

The team leader who worked under Yang Zhuma did resort to violent demolition when faced with protests from citizens in the old city, and indeed a life was lost.

A dramatic scene appeared here. The squad leader accused Yang Zhuma in court of being the instigator. So many things that Yang Zhuma knew or didn't know about all appeared at that moment, and all of them were placed on Yang Zhuma.

Strictly speaking, this was a trumped-up charge. But in the end, it turned out to be a solid case.

Sitting alone, facing a pot of refreshing chrysanthemum tea, Zou Qingmei wanted to find a little solace or a little peace of mind from the past.

At the same time, Shen You saw Long Sheng'er, who was not at all concerned about his appearance. When Shen You talked about what happened that night, Long Sheng'er also said that he had known about it for a long time.

Moreover, she is also one of the chess pieces, responsible for luring Shen You there and then performing the decisive blow.

After hearing this, Shen You asked with a smile: "In this case, if I took the car and left, wouldn't it be fine?"

"If you take a car, there will be a car accident. It will still be the case after the car accident." Long Sheng'er said coldly.

"When will you leave Quancheng?" Shen You asked directly without saying anything else.

"Wait until you decide the winner!" Long Sheng'er stretched his body and made a posture to drive away guests.

After Shen You left, Mu Zhizhou said to Long Sheng'er: "Sheng'er, Brother Jin just sent a letter. I hope you can go back and take a look at the Third Leader."

Long Sheng'er frowned, and his face suddenly became a little irritable.

The so-called happiness is the same, but misfortunes are diverse. To outsiders, the Qinggang seems to be peaceful, but within the Qinggang, people know that it is not that simple.

Long Sheng'er's father, Long Jiutian, is the gang leader, the second gang leader is called Ding Shoufang, who is the gang leader's old brother, and the third gang leader is called Ning Yutang. Among them, the third gang leader is the youngest, but no one in the gang dares to look down on the third gang leader.

Not only because the third gang leader is the gang leader's savior, but more importantly because the third gang leader is the best among the three, and he has helped the Qing Gang to defeat powerful enemies many times.

It's just that the three gang leaders are relatively unruly and unruly. They usually look down on anyone in the gang. Even they keep a certain distance from the gang leaders, but they only feel attached to Long Sheng'er.

Mu Zhizhou continued: "It's not very peaceful inside the gang."

Long Sheng'er knows this. After all, it's easier to conquer a country than to defend it. When we had nothing, we were good brothers. But after we start a family, have luxury cars, and live in a mansion, all kinds of trivial things that we could have accepted appear.

friction.

Ding Shoufang has never married, but there is a woman he particularly likes, with whom he has always maintained a male-female relationship. Even though she does not have a formal title, everyone in the Qing Gang regards her as his sister-in-law.

This woman's younger brother is also in the Qinggang. Because of his sister, he is extremely arrogant. Most of the people in the gang are selling Ding Shoufang to save face and don't care about him. This also breeds his domineering momentum.

He dared to do things that others did not dare to do, and he dared to do things that others did not dare to do. Before Long Sheng'er came to Quancheng, Long Jiutian finally became furious because of selling fans.

In addition, the previous incident of his intention to rape a good family member was brought up again, and Long Jiutian finally decided to implement the gang rules and expel him from the gang.

This punishment in gangs is extremely severe. After all, people who join gangs have enemies more or less. If they lose the protection of gangs, wouldn't they become fish on the chopping board?

Especially since that guy is used to being domineering and domineering, not a few people are offended.

Sure enough, he found his sister, who found Ding Shoufang crying. Ding Shoufang knew that this matter was unjust, so he found Ning Yutang.

There was a reason for looking for Ning Yutang. When Ning Yutang first joined the gang, he had little money, but one time he had to save an old man in the casino. The gambling debt of 100,000 yuan was paid by Ding Shoufang.

Who knew that Long Jiutian would not give face to anyone for the sake of impartiality in gang rules. When Long Sheng'er and the others came to Quancheng, Long Jiutian was still very strong in expelling the guy from the gang.

They didn't give Ding Shoufang and Ning Yutang any face at all.

This is probably what Mu Zhizhou was talking about. Goldfinger, the boss of Long Jiutian's five guards, must have felt that Ning Yutang would not be able to overcome this obstacle, so he wanted Long Sheng'er, whom he had always admired, to come forward and make peace with him.

The whole city of Quancheng was very uneasy. Some people were sad, while others were happy.

When Zeng Hu heard that Lang Renli took the initiative to find him at this time, although he couldn't guess what was going on, he was still a little excited.

After all, he had been quite depressed for a while, whether it was because Hu Yaojin was deposed or some of his underground factories were sealed, but if Lang Renli came to him at this time, he would definitely get good news.

After thinking about it all night without any clue, he found Qi Jun early the next morning, and Qi Jun bowed to him as a junior when he saw him.

This makes Zeng Hu very happy. Frankly speaking, Qi Jun is not much younger than him, and now that Lang Renli has gradually delegated power, Qi Jun has gradually taken over Lang Renli's power, but seeing him treat him as a junior

, although he was polite on the lips, but he was very happy in his heart.

This made him speculate that something must happen to make him happy.

As expected, Lang Renli was unusually polite when he saw him. After the two exchanged pleasantries, Lang Renli finally got to the point.

"Boss Zeng, there has been a lot of noise during this period, and your business has been severely affected!"

Zeng Hu knew that the factory where he processed, manufactured, and trafficked drugs could not be hidden from these old gangsters, so he immediately said with a smile: "Fortunately, I wonder what my uncle has to say."

"I don't take advice seriously, I just want to ask you a question."

"Please speak." Zeng Hu was unusually polite.

"How important is the jade piece you showed me that day to you?"

Hearing Lang Renli mention the jade pieces, Zeng Hu couldn't help being secretly surprised. He immediately coughed a few times and asked, "What's wrong? Why is the old man suddenly interested in this thing?"

"You don't have to worry about why I asked. I just want to know your attitude, and then I will decide whether to continue talking to you."

After listening to Lang Renli's words, although he didn't know what he was thinking, Zeng Hu still nodded affirmatively and said: "It's very important!"

"How does it compare to your current status and family fortune?" Lang Renli asked.

Zeng Hu's eyes narrowed after hearing this, and he smiled at Lang Renli and said, "That's about right."

After seeing this, Lang Renli smiled slightly and said: "In that case, we still have something to talk about. I can help you get the jade piece. But you also have to pay a price."

This sentence was like a thunderbolt from the sky. Zeng Hu didn't have time to hear the second half of the sentence. He only heard the first half. He immediately beamed with joy and asked Lang Renli: "Is this true?"

"My old man has been here for so many years, why should I joke about my reputation?"

Lang Renli said calmly.

"I wonder what the old man wants?" Zeng Hu knew very well that there is no free lunch in this world. If you want to get it, you must pay something first, so he immediately asked Lang Renli.

"It's actually very simple. I speak more directly. You have also seen that since your father's death, although it seems that you have very strong control over Quancheng, it is not actually the case."

Zeng Hu nodded, naturally he had an idea of ​​the current situation.

And Lang Renli continued: "Let's not talk about the far ones, let's talk about the nearby ones. Someone can destroy Hu Yaojin, and the government can also seal down some of your factories. This shows that someone is ready to use the knife on you."

"Then they have to look at what they have. My Zeng family has been in Quancheng for so many years, but no one can pick a soft persimmon if they want to." Zeng Hu said bitterly.

"So, I think you can give up part of the way, concentrate on your right path, be your entrepreneur, isn't it good to really be a businessman?"

Hearing Lang Renli finally express his request nakedly, Zeng Hu's heart immediately started to move. He snorted coldly: "Old man, if this is the case, can my Zeng family still have a foothold in Quancheng?"

"Let's change the conditions!"
