Chapter 23 Talking in the Hotel

Chapter 23 Conversation in the Hotel
Separated from Xue Liangying, Chen Ledao found Ding Li who had been waiting outside the building for a long time.Ding Li squatted in a corner, wearing linen clothes with several patches on it, and a black felt hat on his head.When Chen Ledao met him at the train station for the first time, he was wearing this hat.

Now that Hengsan is living well, Ding Li is worried that if he meets someone under Hengsan, wearing a hat can hide his appearance to the greatest extent.

He should have been waiting here for a long time, and after seeing Chen Ledao, he went straight over.With an excited look on his face, he looked forward to what he was going to do next.

"Brother, you can be regarded as coming out, are we going to see Mr. Feng?" Ding Li stepped forward and said quickly.Yesterday when Chen Ledao said that he took him to see the owner of the gun, the first thing he thought of was Feng Jingyao.Because of this, he tossed and turned on the bed after going back yesterday, thinking about it for a long time before falling asleep.

Chen Ledao shook his head when he heard the words, and gave Ding Li an unexpected answer.

"Let's go to see the owner of Meihua Theater." Chen Ledao said.As early as this morning, he had already made an appointment with Li Wangqi.Li Wangqi was so anxious these two days that he couldn't keep his feet on the ground, he didn't intend to agree, but after Chen Ledao said that he knew some clues about the gun, he changed his attitude and agreed immediately.

Ding Li heard the words with obvious disappointment on his face.He thought he was going to see Feng Jingyao, and he had already prepared a lot of self-introductions after meeting Feng Jingyao in his heart, but it turned out that he was not going to see Feng Jingyao.

"Brother, didn't you say that those guns belonged to Mr. Feng? Are we going to meet the owner of the guns? How come we are going to meet the owner of the Meihua Theater?" Ding Li was a little unwilling. He was still a little apprehensive about meeting Feng Jingyao.But now that she knew that she was not going to meet him, she wanted to meet the legendary Mr. Feng even more in her heart.

"Why, do you want to see Feng Jingyao so much?" Chen Ledao gave him a funny look, Ding Li, a fan of Yao, actually wanted to attend Lao Feng's fan meeting.

Ding Li scratched the back of his head, a little embarrassed, but he didn't object.Who in Shanghai like him doesn't want to work under Mr. Feng, he doesn't think there is anything wrong with his thinking.

"Don't worry, you will have a chance to meet him in the future. Work hard, and you may even have the opportunity to do business with him in the future." Chen Ledao patted Ding Li's shoulder.Before he could speak, he asked again, "Did you bring that gun with you?"

"I'm carrying it," Ding Li lifted up the hem of his coat, revealing the handle of the gun at his waist.

Chen Ledao nodded, "Just take it with you. The person we are going to meet in a while is called Li Wangqi. He is helping Feng Jingyao manage the Meihua Theater."

Chen Ledao briefly told Ding Li about Li Wangqi, and then told him the things that need to be paid attention to later.

"If he asks you later, you can say that the night before yesterday you happened to bump into Hengsan's people carrying boxes into the house, and after you bumped into him, Hengsan's people would kill you." Chen Ledao taught Ding Li the speech he had already prepared. .

"What about this gun?" Ding Li nodded and asked again.

"You said that after you escaped, you were curious about the contents of the box, and then you found an opportunity to sneak into the house and find the box. That's where you found the gun. After you found something was wrong, you came to find me." Chen Ledao said.

"Is that all?" Ding Li said that he remembered it and asked again. This matter is not difficult for him.Speaking people's words when he sees people, and talking nonsense when he sees ghosts, are skills he has learned since he was a child.Otherwise, with his mother alone, he might not be able to pull him to grow up.

"You don't need to worry about the rest, just leave it to me." Chen Ledao said.

In fact, his plan is not really seamless and perfect. It is not difficult for people like Feng Jingyao to check.But he didn't intend to keep it a secret.

If you want to kill chickens to warn monkeys, but if others don't know who killed the chickens, what's the use?
When the two arrived at Sanyuan, Li Wangqi was already waiting at the door.Normally, Li Wangqi would not need to be so polite to Chen Ledao, but who told Chen Ledao that he knew the clue of the gun.

Now as long as he can find a gun, he is willing to call him Daoist Chen Le.

"Mr. Chen, please come inside, the food and drinks are already ready." Li Wangqi had seen Chen Ledao at the Meihua Theater before, and recognized him immediately.

"Boss Li is not polite, sorry to keep you waiting," Chen Ledao said politely, and then the two walked into the hall.

Ding Li followed behind Chen Ledao, and next to him, there was a man in a gray suit who also followed Li Wangqi.The man looked at Ding Li a few times at first, but he didn't look at him, his attention was always on Chen Ledao.

"A Bing, let them serve the last few dishes." Walking to the door of the box, Li Wangqi ordered the man in the gray suit, and the man responded and walked to the other side.

"A Bing." Chen Ledao's gaze stayed on that person for a moment, and he couldn't help looking at Li Wangqi again, with greater confidence in his plan this time.

After being seated, Li Wangqi first chatted with Chen Ledao about Feng Chengcheng. He knew that Chen Ledao had an unusual relationship with Feng Chengcheng.About 10 minutes passed, seeing that Chen Ledao had no intention of talking about guns at all, so he had to take the initiative to mention it.

"Mr. Chen, to tell you the truth, I've been in a lot of trouble with the gun these days. The deadline given by Mr. Feng is about to come, and I don't have any idea here. Brother, I'm in a hurry!" Li Wangqi looked bitter. , After finishing speaking, he directly picked up the wine glass on the table and drank it in one gulp, then sat on the chair and sighed.

After saying this, he thought that Chen Ledao would take the initiative to speak, but he didn't know that Chen Ledao didn't say a word.Just nodded there, showing a face that I understand and I sympathize with you.

Seeing this, Li Wangqi couldn't help but feel dark in her heart, this kid is really out of character.

"Brother, you said on the phone that you knew some clues about the gun. If you really know something, you must tell me, brother. I really am now." Li Wangqi waved her hand with a sad look.Picking up the bottle, poured himself another glass, and drank it down again.

"Hey, brother, if you're being polite, I won't say anything. If I can survive this calamity this time, I will be rewarded in the future." Chen Ledao kept silent, but Li Wangqi finally lost her composure and cut straight to the point.The address in the mouth even changed into "brother" and "brother" invisibly, trying to narrow the relationship between the two.

Although there are some things in Li Wangqi's words that cannot be fully believed, most of them are true. He really has nowhere to go now.There is only one day left in the deadline given by Feng Jingyao.If this matter has not been settled by then, he might have to go to the Huangpu River to accompany those resentful ghosts.

Anyone who has dealt with Feng Jingyao's means will never doubt it.

"Boss Li, don't worry, I'm here today for this matter. We are all on our own, so naturally we should help each other." Chen Ledao felt a little speechless at the rapid change of Li Wangqi's address to him, and he still underestimated these Shanghai beach people. The old fritters are gone.

He didn't intend to embarrass Li Wangqi, it's just that he prefers that he can control the initiative in these matters.

A Bing has been watching Chen Ledao talking to Li Wangqi, with a smile on his face.However, the twitching corners of his eyes and the flickering eyes at that time all showed that his inner situation was different from what he showed.

No one knows more about the gun than A Bing. Chen Ledao said that he knew something about the gun, which made A Bing worry about whether it would involve the things he did.

No one cared what Ah Bing was thinking, only Li Wangqi poured himself another glass of wine.

"Brother, I won't say any more polite words. Brother, I will do it first. No matter whether your news today is useful or not, I will be grateful to you." After finishing speaking, he drank another gulp.

Seeing Li Wangqi like this, Chen Ledao felt a little embarrassed.Before he said anything, Li Wangqi drank three cups first, and kept saying "brother" and "brother", which made Chen Ledao doubt whether he and he were really brothers.

Chen Ledao really admired Li Wangqi, although he should be a fool in his memory, but from the current contact, Li Wangqi is somewhat capable.He said this with a few glasses of wine.At least it's hard not to have a good impression of him.

"Boss Li, let's get straight to the business," Li Wangqi said, and Chen Ledao didn't intend to make a fool of himself.

Ding Li sat next to him, his eyes widened slightly, Li Wang's operation just now opened his eyes wide.

He has been at the bottom since he was a child, and he has been exposed to all kinds of teachings and nine streams.The art of speaking has long been deeply engraved in his words and deeds.But Li Wangqi's performance just now made him feel ashamed.Haven't you seen that even my elder brother is a little bit overwhelmed!

"Cheng Cheng and I are friends. Mr. Li works for Mr. Feng. We are also our own people, so I have nothing to say."

"Two days ago, I heard that Mr. Feng had lost a batch of ammunition, and that Boss Li was searching for the whereabouts of the gun, so I kept an eye on it. It just so happened that my brother found me yesterday." As he said, Chen Ledao took a picture. Shoot Ding Li next to him.Seeing Li Wangqi's own view, Ding Li nodded to him.

"When my brother came home at night the night before yesterday, he ran into something by chance." As he spoke, Chen Ledao told the story he had made up before.

Ding Li ran into Hengsan carrying people into the house at night. After being discovered, Hengsan sent people to chase and kill him, as if trying to silence him.Seeing that the situation was not good, Ding Li escaped, but felt wrong afterwards and touched it back.As a result, boxes were found in the house, full of guns.

The matter is very simple, Chen Ledao didn't add too many details, the more he said, the easier it is to make mistakes.

"Brother, what guns are there, do you remember?" Li Wangqi asked Ding Li excitedly after hearing Chen Ledao's words.

Ding Li looked at Chen Ledao, and after seeing Chen Ledao nodding, he said: "The most of them are pistols, and I don't know the other guns." After speaking, Ding Li took out the pistol from his waist.

"I took this gun out of the box, and this kind of pistol is the most in it." Ding Li handed the gun to Li Wangqi. Chen Ledao taught him these things before, and he handled them effortlessly.

Li Wangqi took the gun and looked it over carefully, with a look of excitement in her eyes, "Yes, this is it, this is the batch of munitions we lost."

The more Li Wangqi talked, the more excited he was, the hand holding the gun couldn't help shaking. After so many days, he finally found the clue of the gun.

What Li Wangqi didn't notice was that after hearing what they said, A Bing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.At the same time, I was also a little puzzled. Judging from Ding Li's words, that batch of guns was indeed theirs.But how did those guns end up in Hengsan's hands?

A Bing had doubts in his heart, and he really couldn't think of any answers for a while.

"Could it be the box that was lost?" A Bing thought of what Fatty Jin had told him before, that a box of guns was missing.

"Brother, do you know how many boxes of those guns are there?" Li Wangqi asked excitedly.

Ding Li shook his head: "I'm not sure how many boxes there are. I only saw one box. When I was about to continue searching later, someone came back and I couldn't find it anymore."

Li Wangqi nodded upon hearing this, although a little disappointed by this, it did not affect his happy mood.It doesn't matter whether the munitions are there or not, or even if the munitions are not theirs.As long as the gap in the ammunition can be plugged, Mr. Feng will be able to give an explanation at that time.At least he can save his life.

"Brother, let's see if this brother can show me the way and take us to that house." Repressing her excitement, Li Wangqi looked at Chen Ledao, at this moment he was really grateful to Chen Ledao.

"That's no problem," Chen Ledao nodded, but said again: "Boss Li, there is one more thing I don't know if I should say it or not," Chen Ledao put on a look of hesitation.

"Brother, if you have anything to say, just say it, why do we talk about it between brothers," Li Wangqi said loudly, and he was in a very good mood at the moment.

"I don't know if you know about Cheng Cheng being kidnapped before," Chen Ledao said softly.

"Miss Feng was kidnapped?" Li Wangqi couldn't help being surprised, he didn't know about it at all.

The kidnapping of Feng Jingyao's daughter is naturally a big event in Shanghai, and it would not be surprising even if everyone knew about it.

But because of Chen Ledao's reasons, that matter was quickly resolved, so this matter was controlled within a certain range.Apart from the people who were sent out by Feng Jingyao that day, the only ones who knew about this were the parties concerned and those big shots in Shanghai.

Li Wangqi obviously hasn't reached the level of a big boss, and Feng Jingyao later gave a gag order about this matter, so he didn't know at all.

Seeing Li Wangqi's surprised look, Chen Ledao nodded and said: "Yes, Miss Feng was almost kidnapped some time ago, and the person who shot him at that time was Heng San."

Li Wangqi was obviously shocked by this incident. Not only did Li Wangqi dare to touch Mr. Feng's goods, she even dared to tie Mr. Feng's daughter.He knew how much Feng Jingyao loved his daughter, so if he dared to kidnap Feng Jingyao's daughter, he could only say that Heng San was crazy.

"Mr. Feng's goods are lost this time. Even if you find them in time, I'm afraid you will still have a bad impression on Mr. Feng." Chen Ledao continued, and Li Wangqi nodded in agreement.There was no way around it, and all he wanted before was to get the goods back and save his life.

"Mr. Feng doesn't move the horizontal three, because he has reached his position, and he can no longer act so casually in many things, otherwise he will give his opponents an excuse," Chen Ledao continued when he saw Li Wangqi's expression of thinking.

"At a time like this, it's up to Mr. Li and you guys to share the worries of Mr. Feng. Mr. Feng has too many things to do, and he can't do them all by himself, but can this only make Hengsan and others go rampant?
First he attacked Ms. Feng, and then he attacked Mr. Feng's goods. This was simply provoking Mr. Feng.And if Boss Li, you can handle this matter beautifully.Report to Mr. Feng afterward.

Even if you don't say meritorious service, it is definitely a redemption, and it will leave a good impression on Mr. Feng's heart. "

Chen Ledao said all the words he had prepared, and didn't say anything else after finishing speaking. He picked up the wine glass and took a sip, letting Li Wangqi think about it.What he said is [-]% true and [-]% false, I am not afraid that Li Wangqi will not believe it.

Not to mention that Li Wangqi is now anxious to show herself well in front of Feng Jingyao, so as to change her previous incompetent image.Even if he knew something was wrong, as long as Heng San really kidnapped Feng Chengcheng, then he would never let go of this opportunity.

Chen Ledao took a few mouthfuls of food in a leisurely manner, and Li Wangqi was still digesting what Chen Ledao said just now.A Bing looked at Chen Ledao with deep meaning in his eyes. He didn't know why Chen Ledao said this to Li Wangqi, but he knew more than Wang Qi, so he consciously told him that something was wrong with Chen Ledao.

Sensing A Bing's gaze, Chen Ledao smiled at him, taking care of himself.Ding Li looked at his nonchalant appearance, and admired Chen Ledao even more in his heart.

He looked at Li Wangqi, whose face was sometimes excited and sometimes smiling, and touched his stomach that was starting to growl.Ding Li stopped being polite, and followed Chen Ledao to eat.It's just that his eating habits are much rougher than Chen Ledao's.
