Chapter 810 Reconciliation?

Xu Shouwang found Tan Hongru again, and the fifth master took the initiative to back down. If Tan Hongru still stubbornly insisted on his own opinion, Xu Shouwang would be really disappointed. It meant that this circle had come to an end, and he had no strength to fight against Zhao Chuxi and Situ Nan. Sooner or later, it will be destroyed by Tan Hongru, it's just a matter of time.

"Go, or not, give me an affirmative answer, Hongru, don't let me down and let everyone else down, you and Fifth Master haven't reached the point where you can't get along with each other." Xu Shouwang told Tan Hongru the whole story, Then he said earnestly that he had made up his mind that if Tan Hongru refused, he would withdraw from this circle, find a quiet small city to live the most ordinary life, and stay away from Sichuan and Chongqing regardless of world affairs.

Tan Hongru, who used to be quite restrained in smoking and drinking, has been smoking and drinking a lot during this time. He sighed and said, "You have done things like this. If I don't go, what else do you want?"

"Hongru, I did all this for you, for this circle," Xu Shouwang sighed, but Tan Hongru's affirmative answer made him heave a sigh of relief.

Tan Hongru nodded and said, "Old Xu, I know that you are loyal to me and to this circle, and you have never been selfish. If you were not like this, you would not be my most trusted friend."

In this circle, apart from Uncle Gui, Xu Shouwang is indeed his most trusted friend. Tan Hongru has always felt that he has few friends because he seldom trusts others. If he wants to survive in this circle, he has to be careful in his heart. Whoever is not sure will stab you in the back and betray you. He has suffered such losses many times before.

"Then I'll arrange this matter?" Xu Shouwang asked in a low voice.

Tan Hongru helplessly shook his head and waved, "I'll leave it all to you."

"Okay, I'll do it right now and arrange for you to meet as soon as possible, but before that, it doesn't make sense whether the old house of the fifth master has to be evacuated now." Xu Shouwang continued, and the fifth master has already expressed his sincerity. If they don't show their sincerity, the business can't continue.

Tan Hongru sighed and said, "Let's all withdraw, from today onwards, you don't have to monitor there anymore."

Xu Shouwang finally showed a satisfied expression. This is the Tan Hongru he knew.

The front of Xishu Group is getting longer and longer. Xu Lin has to slow down recently, otherwise the capital chain will become troublesome. Although Xishu Group has a stable cash flow, after all, the blood transfusion to Changan Holdings makes them also need to be more stable. Fortunately, Xishu Group now has a clear strategic goal, and there will be no black swan incidents.

I just don’t know which forces are interfering with the Xishu Group recently. The provincial and local tax bureaus have asked the local tax bureau to review the companies under the Xishu Group. They suspect that many companies under the Xishu Group have committed tax evasion, which makes Xu Lin furious, but There is no way, administrative intervention is sometimes so frustrating.

This target was naturally aimed at Zhao Chuxi, but Zhao Chuxi was still wondering who was behind it, Fang Chuan's side or Beijing's side?

For this reason, Xu Lin had to hold a video conference for the executives of his subsidiary company, so that everyone should not relax or care about this matter. The development of the company is more important than anything else. At the same time, let them have a good relationship with local officials. Now Xishu Group There are some advantages in this respect. As for the headquarters of the Xishu Group, Xu Lin is not underestimating the officials in these systems. He probably can't even understand the financial statements of the Xishu Group, let alone find tricks in it. The complicated shareholding structure is enough to make They are exhausted.

Originally, Zhao Chuxi wanted to walk around, but later he felt that it was unnecessary. Such a trivial matter could not bring him down, it just disgusted him.

Afterwards, Zhao Chuxi went to Luzhou and Zigong in southern Sichuan again. Huangtu, Xiaowang and others had been there for a month, and everything that needed to be cleaned up had been sorted out. Southwest Industrial's subsidiaries had also settled in Zigong and Luzhou, taking over the entertainment industry, etc. In the gray industry, the companies under the Xishu Group purchase and select high-quality assets, or establish cooperative companies to make up for their shortcomings in the industry chain and market share.

Zhao Chuxi's goal is very clear, which is to infiltrate industrial and commercial influence into every place in Sichuan, led by Xishu Group, and expand invisible influence and control power to every place in Sichuan, led by Southwest Industry, so that both sides will form an unbreakable bond Interest chains and barriers, this is what Xu Lin said is too big to fail.

Secondly, it is at a higher level, with Xishu Group and Changan Holdings as the two carriages, based on the domestic market, and looking at the international market, but this short period of time will not achieve much results, it will take time to plan...

After Zhao Chuxi stayed in Luzhou and Zigong for four days, he made sure that Zigong and Luzhou were under control, and then returned to Chengdu. However, Zhao Chuxi redistributed the territory of southern Sichuan. Chen Tao was in charge of Leshan, Meishan, and Yibin, and Zigong and Luzhou were in charge. The big and small kings and Song Tianhe are jointly responsible, in fact, let Song Tianhe be in charge of the specific affairs, and the big and small kings control the overall situation, afraid that Chen Tao will think too much.As for Situ Nan, it was simple and straightforward, let Han Qing be in charge of the interests of Zigong and Luzhou belonging to the Eastern Sichuan circle.

There is also Chen Zhongzang, who has made great achievements many times, Zhao Chuxi did not treat him badly, let him follow Huangtu, and began to be in charge of Chengdu...

Before Zhao Chuxi returned to Chengdu, Xu Shouwang finally managed to meet Wu Ye and Tan Hongru again. Wu Ye invited Tan Hongru to the old house for a family dinner, and Tan Hongru readily accepted.

So that evening, Tan Hongru took Xu Shouwang, Uncle Gui and Wei Jin to Wu Ye's old house, Zuo Fu and Hong He Ansheng were in Mianyang, and Wu Ye only left his second son Qu Wende to accompany him.

Good wine, good food, good tea, but when we meet again, things are different, and both sides are quite embarrassed...

June is considered to be summer, so the weather is sweltering and hot at night. Originally, the fifth master wanted to hold the banquet in the yard, but the weather is not beautiful, it is really hot outside, and there are many mosquitoes, so in the end, he had to hold the banquet in the restaurant inside the building .

After Tan Hongru was withdrawn from the old house, the old house was immediately replaced by the Qu family's confidantes, and Yao Muren was in charge of the security again. When Tan Hongru was about to arrive, Qu Wende came out to greet him on behalf of the Qu family. Hong Ru, no matter how much he bows his head, he still has to keep his integrity and dignity. Isn't it what he is fighting for?

Qu Wende still admires the old man for taking the initiative to take a step back. The old man's life can be described as thrilling, and he has already become a legend. He has no chance to surpass it.Zhao Chuxi and Situ Nan still keep their promises, and what they promised to the Qu family is still in the hands of the Qu family, which also makes them more confident in future cooperation.

Soon, Tan Hongru's motorcade appeared in sight and finally stopped in front of the old house. Qu Wende straightened his waist and looked over there. After Tan Hongru and others got off the car, Qu Wende took two steps forward without saying hello at all. , waved "please"

Tan Hongru glanced at Qu Wende, knowing that the old guy was angry with him. The two had nothing to communicate with before. Qu Wende always felt that he had taken his position, but he didn't know that he would never be able to take this position in his next life.Shaking his head with a wry smile, he brought Uncle Ghost and Wei Jin in. Xu Shouwang patted Qu Wende on the shoulder and smiled lightly, but he didn't know what it meant.

Qu Wende, who stayed at the end, sneered in his heart, "What are you looking for, I think you can still dance for a few days."

Inside the building, Master Wu, who was leaning on crutches, was sitting in the main hall, and beside him was the old man Yao Muren, looking at Tan Hongru and others who walked in with complicated eyes. This should be the first time the two met after a long time , whether it is Wu Ye or Tan Hongru, they are all a little old and tired.

Before Tan Hongru came in, he had already seen the fifth master who was sitting in the seat. He didn't bow his head slightly until he walked in front of the fifth master and shouted, "

old man"

Fifth Master tremblingly wanted to get up, Yao Muren and Tan Hongru moved forward to support him at the same time, but Fifth Master waved his hand to indicate that he could do it, and said in a low voice, "The food is ready, let's serve it."

Everyone was like this, without talking about anything, and moved directly to the restaurant. There was no one else who could serve the table, only Wu Ye, Tan Hongru, Qu Wende, and Xu Shouwang. Behind Tan Hongru stood Uncle Gui, and behind Wu Ye stood Yao Muren However, Wei Jin took people to stay outside. After all, accidents may happen at any time, and Tan Hongru had to be on guard.

"It's Hongru's disrespect for not coming to see the old man for so long. I don't know how the old man is doing recently?" Someone always needs to speak, so Tan Hongru asked this time.

Qu Wende hurriedly said, "Thanks to your blessing, Lord Hong, my father is still in good health, and he should pay back in a while..."

Before Qu Wende finished speaking, he was interrupted by the fifth master, who coughed twice and said in a low voice, "I'm already very old, no one knows how many years this old bone can live, maybe it will happen once every two days." If you catch a cold, you may die, and if you can live to my age, you have already made money, so what more do you want?"

Tan Hongru said grandly, "The old man's words are a bit serious. I think the old man can live to be a hundred years old."

The servants of Qu's family began to serve the dishes. On the table was the 30-year-old Wuliangye. The old man didn't drink alcohol but only drank tea, so this wine was also prepared for other people.

"Hongru, if you really hope that I can live to be a hundred years old, I will be gratified." The fifth master said this very truthfully. In his heart, Tan Hongru wished that he would die early so that it would not affect him. Being able to completely control the Qu family, with the skills and skills of the second child, it is impossible to be his opponent.

Tan Hongru showed embarrassment, Xu Shouwang quickly smoothed things over and said, "Let's toast the old man, and wish the old man good health and a long life."

Tan Hongru followed Xu Shouwang to pick up the cups, and several people toasted the old man. The old man replaced the tea with wine, and continued to say after putting down the cup, "Hongru, do you still remember the scene when you and I met for the first time more than ten years ago? At that time, you followed the dead third child. I asked who would dare to kill Liu Song in Mianyang. You stood up and said you go. I asked you how many people you want. You said one of you is enough. , I want you to tell the truth, tell the truth, if you can’t kill you, leave Sichuan and Chongqing and never come back. At that time, you were still young and frivolous. , it’s been so many years.”

"Old man, without your cultivation, I would not be where I am today. Your great kindness and virtue will never be forgotten," Tan Hongru said in a deep voice, which he never denied.

Holding the teacup, the old man didn't hold back anything, he laughed and said, "That's true, if it wasn't for this relationship, I would probably be dead by now."

After saying this, both Xu Shouwang and Tan Hongru's expressions changed instantly, and Qu Wende couldn't help snorting coldly. Xu Shouwang was afraid that the old man would press on every step of the way, and said with a smile, "Old man, let's not say these unlucky things tonight."

The old man shook his head and said, "What's auspicious or unlucky? It's all up to today. The original family has to hide and pinch it. This meal is probably worthless in the end. In fact, you did these things before, I I can’t even figure it out, it’s because I woke up like a dream when I was watching some time ago, half of the responsibility for today’s situation lies with me, and I can’t blame you.”

"The old man's words are serious." Tan Hongru did not admit his mistake, but just said so.

The old man sighed bitterly, "I have been thinking about what caused this situation for the past few days, why did you put me under house arrest, suppress the veteran faction, and what made South Sichuan disappear. After much deliberation, I finally feel that I have to bear half Responsibility, the accident of public power made me mess up. My old bones can only make you toss and push you too hard. At that time, you had your considerations, and I had mine. I wanted to save the public power, and you wanted to eat Jianying's territory. This is our conflict. Later, I couldn't figure out why you didn't save the public power. The death of the public power touched me too much, and that's why we broke up. Thinking about it now, it’s not that you can’t be saved, but that you can’t be saved, and you can’t be saved. I just don’t understand such a simple truth. The authorities are obsessed. You, I understand, you don’t have much desire for money or women , your desire is ambition. As Shou Wang said that day, you are Tan Hongru if you do this. If you don’t do this, I would not have chosen you. So, even if you kill me, I will Now I don’t think it’s possible, but luckily you didn’t take this step.”

The old man said it right away, not to mention Tan Hongru didn't expect it, even Xu Shouwang himself didn't expect the old man to turn his back on it.

"Old man, I have no choice but to do many things, and I have done many things wrong." Tan Hongru finally chose to bow his head. He can bow his head in front of anyone. Xu Shouwang doesn't understand why he refuses to bow his head to Fifth Master. Because the fifth master is the father to Tan Hongru, many things represent a father's affirmation of his son. If he bows his head, it means that he has surrendered.But just because he is a father, there is no difficulty in getting through.

"I don't want to talk about those things in the past. I am also responsible for what you did wrong. If you really want to pursue it, when will it end? This is not the purpose of my asking you to come today." Fifth Master said with narrowed eyes.

Tan Hongru smiled wryly, "Old man, I really don't want to come today because I don't want to see you. No matter what the purpose of what I did before, I caused the current situation in the circle by myself, and I should take full responsibility."

"I've said it all, it's your responsibility, and it's my responsibility. The past can't be changed, but everything will happen in the future. If I supported you at the beginning and didn't fall out with you, there wouldn't be any Today, so, don't say that," the old man said in a weak voice.

Tan Hongru couldn't help looking at the old man, as if this was the old man who supported him in everything back then, and without him, he would have nothing to do with himself.

"The reason why Shouwang came to me is because this circle has reached the most dangerous time. If we are still against each other, we can only give others a chance, and in the end we will destroy ourselves. Therefore, we must unite as one and focus on the outside world, so that this circle can be saved. I'm old and I can't move anymore. This time I really don't want to take care of things anymore. From now on, I will leave all the big and small things in this circle to you. I will tell Wende and others to listen to you." The most important thing, after saying these words, the old man seems to be relieved a lot, and the whole person is also a lot more relaxed.

Qu Wende couldn't help but stop, "Father..."

"Wende, you are talented, but you have to admit that you are not as good as Hongru in terms of skill and wisdom in doing things. In the future, you will help him and lead the juniors of our Qu family. As long as you keep Mianyang and Deyang, everything is possible "The old man looked at Qu Wende and exhorted.

Xu Shouwang and Tan Hongru also looked at Qu Wende at the same time, and Qu Wende said dejectedly, "Oh, I see."

What else Tan Hongru wanted to say, it should be said that he didn't say anything tonight, everything was said by the old man, but the outcome of the matter was decided in this way, Tan Hongru felt a little surprised, it was simpler than he imagined, but looking at The old man didn't know the reason, Tan Hongru felt that the old man was much older, and he looked like he was going to fall down at any time.

Tan Hongru was a little sentimental for a while, and wanted to say something, but was stopped by the old man, who picked up the chopsticks and said, "Don't say anything, I know everything, and you can discuss the rest, now, eat..."

Tan Hongru was silent, picked up the wine glass, looked at the old man, raised his head and drank it down...

The meal was very late, and everyone except the old man drank less during the dinner. After Qu Wende drank too much, he didn't know whether he was really drunk or fake drunk, and said a lot of things that should not be said, saying that he has been drunk for so many years. He has always been dissatisfied with Tan Hongru, because he feels that this circle should be inherited by him, but he also admires Tan Hongru's strength.He also admitted that the current situation in the circle is the old man's responsibility, as well as his Tan Hongru's.

But the circle has reached this point, and he has no choice. He knows that he is not the kind of person who can turn the tide. If he has conflicts with Tan Hongru again, the circle will be gone, and their interests will be gone, so he can only focus on the overall situation. They will listen to Tan Hongru's arrangement.

Tan Hongru believed Qu Wende's words sixty percent, but he was still reasonable, but tonight's result made him very satisfied. At least after the old man let go, he, who completely controlled the circle, had more confidence when facing Zhao Chuxi and Situ Nan. Confident, don't worry about the fire in the backyard, ask him to back off.

It wasn't until eleven o'clock in the evening that no matter whether it was Tan Hongru, Xu Shouwang, or Qu Wende, they all drank a little too much, and then the show ended.

Fifth Master, who hadn't been drinking, was the most sober. He stood at the entrance of the main hall, looking at the backs of Tan Hongru and others leaving, wondering what he was thinking. At this time, the sultry weather finally turned into a heavy rain, mixed with lightning The pouring rain came pouring down, and the fifth master tremblingly said, "Hongru, don't blame me..."
