Chapter 634 (1/2)
There are not too many allies for common goals and common interests. Of course, you have to be high enough.
However, the fourth uncle's plan is different from that of the Third Master Wu of Yan Chaozong. The fourth uncle's plan is for the interests of the Chang'an department. When the Chang'an department falls and the Qin family is out, who doesn't want such a big cake?
The fourth uncle knows very well that he can't eat the cake at all, and he can't eat it alone, otherwise he will become the target of public criticism. At that time, if he offends too many people, he will pay too much. So at the beginning, we should draw enough allies to participate in this feast, which can also deter those jealous demons and monsters.
The goal of Yan Chaozong and the Third Master of Wu is very simple. Yan Chaozong most wants Qin Sheng to die, especially now, because this man has made a mess of his life in recent years, not to mention the strong background of Qin Sheng. If Qin Sheng doesn't die, he may die.
At first, the Third Master of Wu was for interests. In order to strengthen his power in Shanghai, it was a pity that it backfired. Qin Sheng narrowly escaped. Of course, the Yan family will not keep its promise. Now, he is afraid that Qin Sheng will seek revenge from him. After all, with Qin Sheng's current background, it is really easy to deal with him, so he must protect himself.
As for the Xue family, the Xue family is the most interesting. They have a feud with the Qin family. There is no reason to trouble the Qin family. They are eager for the collapse of the Qin family. As long as there is a little opportunity, they will not miss it. So, up to the level of fourth uncle, they contacted the big men behind the scenes. Down to the level of Yan Chaozong and third Master Wu, they just waited to reap the benefits.
Most importantly, the Xue family has his own allies.
Late at night, in Beijing's Diaoyutai No. 1 courtyard, an old man in his 70s who was about to turn 80 was practicing calligraphy in his study. The old man lived in seclusion and had few social activities. The most important thing was to go to Yuyuantan Park to play Tai Chi and chess.
At this time, a middle-aged man in a suit and a little fat pushed the door in and said with a smile, ”Dad, haven't you slept yet?”
The gray haired old man looked up and said in surprise, ”Why are you here? There's no dinner tonight. I heard you've been very active recently.”
The middle-aged man laughed and said, ”who did you listen to?”
People are in good spirits at happy events. The middle-aged man has had a good time recently. Two Internet companies invested have just been listed on Nasdaq, and their value has risen a lot. How can they be unhappy?
”What's up?” For this son, the old man is quite satisfied. Although there are always many setbacks, there are still no big waves in the end.
The middle-aged man was in a good mood. Lehe said, ”Dad, the Xue family started. Xiao Ning said that Xue Yan went to Shanghai today and Xue Ke was also in Shanghai during this period.”
Xiaoning is Gu Yongning, and the middle-aged man is Gu Yongning's father. The old man in his late 80s is Gu Yongning's grandfather.
The Xue family and the Qin family are feuds. Generations of people have been fighting, but the Gu family wants to hate the Qin family more. Old man Gu withdrew from the stage of 49 cities because of the Qin family, but later the whole Gu family hated the Qin family.
That is, Qin Chang'an designed to force Gu's youngest son, Gu Yongning's uncle, to death.
”Xue Yan came forward?” Old man Gu was surprised. Unexpectedly, even Xue Yan took the initiative to come forward when the situation reached this point.
Gu Yongning's father said slowly, ”Dad, don't you think the atmosphere is different
Is something wrong? Is it too quiet? The Xue family has already started. What about our family? ”
Old man Gu was not in a hurry and asked casually, ”what is Xiaoning doing recently?”
”He ah, what can happen? He's tossing around all the time except going to work in the company.” Gu Yongning's father said that, but he's still very satisfied with his son. Recently, several projects of the company are led by his son. It's said that like father, like son.
Old man Gu said with a smile, ”let's not hurry first. Isn't Xiao Ning close to the Xue family boy and let him go to Shanghai to stir the water and find out the Xue family's plan?”
”OK, I'll let him go to Shanghai,” the middle-aged man said bitterly.
Compared with the status of the Xue family, today's Gu family naturally can't compare with or contact the fourth uncle. After all, Gu family has declined in politics, but it has made some achievements in business, otherwise no one will remember it for a long time.
Old man Gu said so, but Gu Yongning's father must be unwilling to be lonely. His brother's revenge is not reported first. He has not been suppressed by Qin Chang'an in recent years. How can such an opportunity be missed?
Haikou, an old man about the same age as Gu has lived here for many years. Compared with Gu's current status, this old man was once famous. It's like the old man is no longer in the Jianghu, but there are still legends of the old man in the Jianghu.
”Grandpa, it's late, you should have a rest.” the old man was sitting on the terrace, looking at the night sky and meditating. Fortunately, it was summer, otherwise the nanny would have muttered.
The speaker is the eldest grandson of the old man. He just arrived in Haikou today, because tomorrow is the old man's 79th birthday. For people in most places, this is the 80th birthday.
But the old man didn't intend to be too high-profile, so he called his children and grandchildren back for a regular meal. Everyone else would chat in the living room. The old man didn't like excitement, but he couldn't get rid of vulgarity. He had to go to the terrace to have a hairdryer.
The old man should know a lot of things and quietly reminded him, ”Qingsong, I know what you're doing outside, but these are not what you should worry about. You should take a long-term view and make the pattern bigger. You have only one direction, and the rest is meaningless.”
