Spy War 1929

Chapter 74 The Successor

"My lord, DuPont has booked a boat ticket to France, and I'm leaving tomorrow. Do you want to see it?"

In the garden, Feng Jingyao was still in the same brown and black robe and mandarin jacket, holding a cane in both hands, and sitting on a chair with a dark green jade wrench on his right thumb.Uncle Xiang stood aside and reported the news to him.

Hearing Uncle Xiang's questioning words, Feng Jingyao shook his head with a smile, and looked sideways at Uncle Xiang who was standing beside him.

"Ah Xiang, you can't do everything, since Du Pont has retreated in spite of the difficulties, let him go.

Dupont is different from people like Hengsan. If something happens to him, people will be the first to suspect me.

Don't look at the fact that everyone now thinks that Chen Ledao and DuPont are the ones who have the biggest grievances.But when something happens to DuPont, my old friends don't sit idle. "

Feng Jingyao looked at the garden, which was not as beautiful as the flowers blooming in spring, and shook his head, with vicissitudes of life in his eyes.Regarding Feng's Chamber of Commerce, he has his own considerations in his heart.

Although the chamber of commerce is still the leader of many chambers of commerce in Shanghai, it is the leader and the tail.

He only has one daughter, Cheng Cheng, which is not a good thing for Feng's Chamber of Commerce, otherwise Zhu Runjiu, a small vice president patrolling, would dare to covet Feng Jingyao's position.

Speaking of Uncle Jiu, Feng Jingyao couldn't figure out until now, what gave Zhu Runjiu the courage and illusion, and gave him the confidence to fight against him.

"Yes, Ah Xiang understands." Uncle Xiang nodded slightly. With Feng Jingyao's words, he didn't need to make other arrangements.

"Master, there is another matter. Lao Jiu was suspended by Lao Ma, and he pulled out his gun and clothes. Yesterday Lao Jiu went to find Du Pont, but he didn't see anyone."

"You don't need to tell me these things. Since you leave it to Lao Ma to do it, let him do it according to his own ideas. Just tell me the result at the end."

Feng Jingyao waved his hand, how could he have so much time to take care of Lao Jiu's trivial matters.If you have that time, why not go out with Cheng Cheng, he is now sixty.

Everyone is afraid of getting old. He used to think that he would not know it, but now he realizes that it is unavoidable.

Uncle Xiang smiled when he heard Feng Jingyao's words. What he wanted to tell Feng Jingyao was not this matter.

"Master, after Lao Jiu left Du Pont's place, he finally wandered to Yeweiyang Song and Dance Hall." For some reason, Uncle Xiang showed a smile on his face.

"Ye Weiyang?" Feng Jingyao raised his head and muttered the name.

"Chen Ledao opened the dance hall, right?"

He remembered.

Uncle Xiang nodded with a smile, "Yes, that's the dance hall. Lao Jiu went to the dance hall to drink, and then got entangled with Fang Yanyun in the dance hall when he was drunk. Later, Chen Ledao also went to the dance hall, and it happened to bump into him." Uncle Xiang Smiling, he didn't say what Uncle Jiu said at that time, so as not to irritate Feng Jingyao.

"Oh!" Feng Jingyao raised his voice two points, showing some interest.

He didn't ask Fang Yanyun, but asked:

"How did things work out?"

Feng Jingyao suddenly looked forward to Uncle Xiang's answer, he didn't know that he hadn't felt this way for a long time.

"Chen Ledao was courteous before fighting, but Uncle Jiu kept pestering him, and Chen Ledao slapped him in front of everyone." Uncle Xiang said with a smile, as if he was very satisfied with Chen Ledao's handling.

"Slap Lao Jiu on the spot? He still has the courage!" Feng Jingyao's tone was a little fluctuating, and he quickly calmed down again.

"Hehe, it seems that I have underestimated him!" Feng Jingyao suddenly laughed. Just now he was lamenting that the chamber of commerce had no successors, but now he suddenly realized that it might not be the case.

Anyone can slap in the face, but when to slap and who to slap, this is a bit particular.

"Who doesn't show face on the ground in Shanghai Bund. Chen Ledao's slap is a bit of a violation of the rules, but it slapped Lao Jiu's face completely. It will inevitably make some old stubborn people look at him as not going well."

Here in Shanghai Beach, it's not yet the junior's turn to show their talents and stir up the situation.

Feng Jingyao said something he didn't agree with, but anyone who heard his tone could know that this old guy was happy.

"Young man, when he is not in high spirits, although he did it a bit abruptly, it is not a bad thing." Uncle Xiang smiled and said good things. He has followed Feng Jingyao for decades, and he is very clear about Feng Jingyao's thoughts. very.

"Hehe, you're still young and energetic," Feng Jingyao shook his head with a smile, and asked again, "How is Ye Weiyang doing now?"

Looking at Feng Jingyao's appearance, Uncle Xiang felt a little coke in his heart, young and energetic, you are talking about when you were young!

As an old man who followed Feng Jingyao from the beginning, who else knows better than him what "Mr. Feng" was like before?

"The business is very good. It has already started to make money, and the profit is not small. It is much better than the original Lihai Song and Dance Hall. In addition, he has recruited some people himself. At the beginning, I went to deal with that Ajie Chen Lianshan, and now he is also under him. .”

"Chen Lianshan..." Feng Jingyao muttered the name, "Did he participate in the land deed of the Lianshan Spinning Factory back then?" Feng Jingyao asked suddenly.

"Well, Ajie couldn't kill Chen Lianshan because he bumped into Chen Ledao at that time, and was caught by Chen Ledao and sent to the police station. Later, he asked the old horse to kill Ajie for a month, and followed him after he came out.

I heard that Chen Ledao is very skilled, and it seems that he is also good at marksmanship.

As for the title deed, he was the one who persuaded Chen Lianshan to sell it. "

Uncle Xiang briefly talked about what happened back then, and Feng Jingyao nodded slightly after listening.

"It's not bad. When he said that he wanted to start from scratch, I thought he was talking big, but I didn't expect him to do it." Feng Jingyao's words rarely carry a tone of appreciation.

Hearing Feng Jingyao's words, Uncle Xiang suddenly thought of another thing that he had been hesitant about.

Seeing that Feng Jingyao's attitude towards Chen Ledao became obvious now, he hesitated again.Uncle Xiang knew very well that what they seemed to be joking about would probably become a factor affecting who would be the successor of the Feng Chamber of Commerce in the future.

After thinking about it, Uncle Xiang still opened his mouth, saying:
"Master, Chen Ledao is very good in all aspects, but there may be some problems in one point."

Hearing Uncle Xiang's serious tone, Feng Jingyao turned his head to look at him, and seeing Uncle Xiang's serious face, he also became serious.

"what is the problem?"

"Yeweiyang dance hall is very clean, and there is no other dance hall like it in Shanghai. Chen Ledao may have some similarities with Xu Wenqiang in his views on some things." Uncle Xiang considered his words carefully.

It has been a while since Xu Wenqiang took over Meihua and Lido. According to the feedback from below, Uncle Xiang has gradually noticed something is wrong.

Many of Meihua's original no-cost transactions were stopped by Xu Wenqiang.

Uncle Xiang didn't know how to describe it for a while, but if he really wanted to say it, he could only say that the current Meihua and Lidu are too formal.It is a bit incompatible with Shanghai Bund and Feng's Chamber of Commerce.

And judging from the news he got, Ye Weiyang of Chen Ledao and Meihuaheli run by Xu Wenqiang are somewhat similar in this respect.

"Hehe, do you want to say that Chen Ledao is too noble like Xu Wenqiang?" Feng Jingyao directly said what Uncle Xiang wanted to say but didn't say, and looked at Uncle Xiang with a half-smile.

The words in his heart were spoken out in one sentence, and he was still looked at like this, Uncle Xiang could only nod with an awkward smile.

When he said those words just now, he was really contradictory. He felt that Chen Ledao and the young lady were a good match, but he was also worried that Chen Ledao's character would not be perfectly compatible with Feng's Chamber of Commerce.

Uncle Xiang was thinking a little too far, he was clearly in front of the housekeeper but caring about the master's heart.

"Uncle Xiang, you still haven't seen Chen Ledao clearly!" Feng Jingyao said suddenly, with a hint of ridicule and emotion in his tone.

"Xu Wenqiang is high-minded, he doesn't want to do business only for gangs, he only wants to do regular business. But Chen Ledao is still different from Xu Wenqiang in my opinion."

Feng Jingyao's eyes were gloomy, and he also had a bit of a headache for Xu Wenqiang during this time.

At first, he was quite happy to see Xu Wenqiang manage Lido and Meihua in an orderly manner, thinking that the chamber of commerce would produce talents, but then it was reported that Xu Wenqiang stopped all those gray businesses.

But to say that Chen Ledao is the same as Xu Wenqiang, he disagrees.

Uncle Xiang stood beside him without saying a word, waiting for the master's next words.

"You said that if Chen Ledao was really like Xu Wenqiang, would he let everyone in Ye Weiyang wear knives? Not to mention that Ye Weiyang also collected a batch of guns and bullets from the market. These things are not a rule what legitimate businessmen would do."

There was something inexplicable in Feng Jingyao's words.

Uncle Xiang nodded lightly. If he really wanted to say that, there was some truth to it.

"Chen Ledao works in the police department, and manages the relationship between the upper and lower levels well, and now he is starting to arm those people in Ye Weiyang. I think his horror is not because of his aloofness, but because he looks down on those petty profits."

After saying this, Feng Jingyao showed a slight smile on the corner of his mouth, he was not afraid that Chen Ledao's ambitions were big, but he was afraid that his ambitions were too small.In the future, if that brat really becomes his son-in-law, he doesn't want to hand over the Feng's Chamber of Commerce to someone with no enterprising spirit.

"Don't worry too much about Chen Ledao, let him toss around, I also want to see what he can do with the help of the police department and Ye Weiyang." Feng Jingyao put his hands on the cane, the corners of his mouth curled up, his eyes were deep , His words can be regarded as an attitude towards Chen Ledao.

Uncle Xiang nodded with a smile, it seems that the master is quite satisfied with Chen Ledao, this should be regarded as a real test of Chen Ledao's ability.If it is passable, I am afraid that the position of the successor of Feng's Chamber of Commerce will have to be settled.

"By the way, what is Cheng Cheng doing?" Feng Jingyao asked suddenly, even though Chen Ledao was an outsider, he had forgotten his daughter.

"I'm in the room with Miss Wang's family. I heard from the maid that the lady has been knitting something in the room for the past two days. Maybe she wants to knit a scarf and gloves for the master because of the cooler weather." Uncle Xiang said with a smile. .

The corners of Feng Jingyao's lips twitched immediately when he heard this, why not say that his daughter is his father's caring little padded jacket!He was a little smug.

It's a pity that Uncle Xiang didn't get married because he saved him back then, let alone have a child, otherwise he could use this to make himself proud in front of Uncle Xiang.

Unable to provoke Uncle Xiang, Feng Jingyao had no choice but to feel complacent in his heart.

"Cheng Cheng, it's inappropriate for you to weave such a brightly colored scarf for your father. Your father looks so serious, what does it look like wearing this!"

Wang Yueqi picked up the half-knitted red scarf, and couldn't help giggling, she really couldn't imagine what Cheng Cheng's father would look like wearing a big red scarf.

Feng Chengcheng snatched the scarf and gave Wang Yueqi a white look, "Who told you this was knitted for my father."

"Oh!!!" Wang Yueqi screamed suddenly, her eyes were full of jokes.

"You knit this for Chen Ledao, right? You haven't knit for me yet. How long have you known her!!" With a strange cry, Wang Yueqi puffed up her cheeks again, her eyes full of anger, thinking of She was actually forgotten by her friends!
Feng Chengcheng gave this playwright friend a blank look, Wang Yueqi taught her how to weave these things.

"But you're right, I have to knit a scarf for my father, otherwise he will definitely be jealous."

Feng Chengcheng suddenly remembered this matter, if Wang Yueqi hadn't made trouble here, she almost forgot about it.

Poor Mr. Feng didn't know that he was almost forgotten by his little padded jacket, and he was still thinking about how warm the scarf knitted by his precious daughter would be.

"Boss, have you drawn up the rules and regulations for the employees you mentioned?"

In the middle of the night, Chen Ledao was sitting on the second floor drinking some wine, while Wei Zhengyun, who had been working hard on the third floor, suddenly ran down and sat opposite Chen Ledao to urge him to change.

The staff rules that Chen Ledao said a few days ago are still there. Wei Zhengyun seriously doubts whether the boss has forgotten it.I work hard on my performance, but the boss is doing all kinds of fishing, so he has to let himself play the role of editor.

"I'm drafting the rules and regulations. These rules and regulations are very important and need to be considered carefully." Chen Ledao made an excuse for himself. He didn't forget, but he didn't think about it. He couldn't pay attention to the three major disciplines and eight points!

He remembered it, but he couldn't use it. If he used it, he might be unlucky, and it wasn't suitable.

Wei Zhengyun carefully glanced at the boss twice with suspicious eyes, and asked in his heart, can you believe this?
"Where is Ding Li, where did he go? Why didn't you see him today?" Seeing that the topic seemed to be stuck, Chen Ledao took the initiative to ask.

In the past, whenever he came, Ding Li would almost always run up to him and hang around, but today he sat for a while, but he couldn't even see Ding Li's shadow.

"Oh, by the way, boss, I forgot to tell you about this." Wei Zhengyun patted himself on the head, and said angrily, there were too many things, so he forgot.

"At noon today, Ding Li's mother fell and injured at home, and he is taking care of his mother in the hospital now."

"Did you fall? Did you accidentally fall, or was it man-made?" Chen Ledao frowned. After staying in Shanghai for a long time, he was getting used to all conspiracy theories and man-made theories.

"I fell and injured myself. I said that I couldn't stay idle at home. I was washing clothes by myself, but I accidentally fell and injured myself." Wei Zhengyun said.

"is it serious?"

"Not very clear, I plan to go and have a look later."

Chen Ledao nodded, Ding Li beat up quite a few people looking for trouble during Ye Weiyang's time, he was really worried because of this matter, now it's a reminder to him, this matter needs to find a way.

Think about those spy war dramas with conspiracy theories that I have seen before. Aren’t many big figures become traitors because their subordinates were tied up with their family members?
This must be prevented in advance! !Chen Ledao reminded himself a few times in his heart, and he must not forget it.

"Let's go take a look together later, and call Ajie and Lao Liu."

"Okay." Wei Zhengyun nodded.

"Then I go to work first?"

"Hey, wait a minute, there's still something to say!" Seeing that Wei Zhengyun got up to leave, Chen Ledao stopped him.

Wei Zhengyun just got up, when he heard this, he sat down again.

"What's the matter with your clothes?"

Chen Ledao pointed to his dark blue clothes and asked.

This guy is quite smart, he chose the most normal dark blue for himself.

　This is a bit hard to say, but I have to say, I feel that I have to go to the anorectal department. I have been in pain for a day in an indescribable place, and I obviously haven’t eaten anything too spicy.I'm a little out of shape, let's do less today.
