Forced to be a villain, my righteousness comes first
Chapter 103 Behind
Chapter 103 Behind
Why do people in the Jianghu like dark and windy nights, because when doing things on such nights, apart from one's own conscience, one doesn't have to worry about being peeped into one's heart.
But if the conscience is covered, then there is really no light.
On such a night, Li Xing quietly reappeared in the Liu family's mansion, familiar with the door, and directly touched the master bedroom of the old man of the Liu family.
Mr. Liu hadn't fallen asleep yet, he was holding the account book and discussing with his housekeeper under the lamp worriedly.
"The 10 taels of freight owed to the Changhe Gang is almost due! There is also the last payment for the poppy poppy, and the outside asks us to pay with good polished rice. This year's rice price is not cheap, inside and out. It may be another tens of thousands of taels of expenditure..."
"Master, if this continues, the hole will almost be unstoppable!"
Mrs. Liu's expression was cloudy under the lights, he never expected that the heavy responsibility of supporting this family with holes would still fall on him, an old man who was over six years old.
"The things in the warehouse are worth tens of thousands of taels inside and out!"
"Tomorrow, arrange to contact a few old customers. We will ship at a [-]% discount, and we will get back some cash for turnover! The old man at the Changhe Gang should still sell me some thin noodles. I will renegotiate the payment period with them, but The polished rice requested by outsiders cannot be delayed any longer!"
"Oh, I don't know what's going on, the guys outside are getting more and more impolite!" The butler shook his head, complaining with a sad face.
"The reason they are willing to give the Liu family this way is because of Miss Six's face!"
Like a thunderbolt from the blue, a clear voice faintly sounded from the side.
"Who?"
Both of them were so surprised that they couldn't contain themselves, the butler hurriedly stood up, facing the direction of the voice, and blocked the old man of the Liu family.
"I've seen Mr. Liu!"
Li Xing showed his real body from the darkness in the corner, and bowed his hands in salute.
"Master Li?"
Grandpa Liu stood up, and greeted Li Xing with a puzzled face.
Li Xing didn't make any secrets, and directly expressed his intention for coming.
"Miss Six couldn't bear the bullying of the evil servant Zhang San, and was brutally killed when she resisted, but in the end she still kept her chastity."
"This……"
Mr. Liu frowned, he could hear what Li Xing was implying.
"My little girl has suffered innocent injustice, and she has also been slandered by other people. Naturally, my Liu family wants the truth!"
The old man of the Liu family spoke sonorously and forcefully, showing his unwavering confidence in his heart.
"If the Zhang family doesn't give me an explanation, we will never let it go!"
Li Xing quietly watched Old Master Liu's performance, but he was completely indifferent, talking to himself.
"The Zhang family is not at fault for this matter, but the Zhang family is also responsible for lax discipline. For this reason, the Zhang family is willing to continue to fully cooperate with the maintenance of your new line, and agrees to maintain the profit distribution ratio before Liu Ruoxi presides over this matter. hour!"
"This……"
Li Xing's words were earth-shattering in Old Master Liu's ears. After hearing these words, his face was suddenly incredulous, and he looked Li Xing up and down, as if he wanted to see if this Lord Shangzong was talking nonsense.
"I don't know what your son wants?"
With a straight face, Mr. Liu straightened his back as much as possible, highlighting his aura, showing the aura of his youth when he was in the mall, to deal with this negotiation.
"What I want, I will tell you after it is done, you Liu family, you can't refuse!"
"This……"
It was the third time that Mr. Liu fell silent, and even though he was in a secret room at this moment, he seemed empty and had no support. He didn't even have anyone to rely on. For the first time, he felt an indescribable loneliness.
Li Xing could feel that the old guy in front of him was already a little moved, but the businessman's instinct still made him want to try to get more benefits.
So Li Xing raised his right hand, and under the tight white bandage, a piece of bright red oozes out vividly.
"Mr. Liu, maybe you still don't know what happened to your precious granddaughter."
"Including your big shopkeeper Liu, including me, they all blocked a catastrophe for your Liu family!"
"If you still want to continue to get involved in this matter without freeing up your hands, take a good look at what Liu Ruoxi did? It will attract such a powerful dead man... I believe that next time your entire Liu family may never There will be such good luck!"
Mr. Liu still understood the straightforward threat in these words, he stared blankly at Li Xing's arm.
He looked into Li Xing's eyes again, and there was a trace of confusion in his eyes, but out of instinct, he bent down.
"Then I'll leave this matter to Mr. Li!"
Li Xing nodded, accepting the matter.
At this time, the butler at the side approached Li Xing with great eyesight, and respectfully presented a stack of bank notes.
"Thank you for your trouble, please accept it."
Li Xing didn't look at it or count it, so he calmly put away the stack of banknotes and put them in his arms.
"Mr. Liu, just wait for the news."
After saying this, Li Xing took a few steps back, and blended into the darkness under the eyes of the two of them.
When Li Xing came to the gate of the Zhang family again, the mansion fell into silence.
But Li Xing knew that this was just the appearance of this family.Li Xing walked to the gate and knocked on the gate lightly a few times.
The sound of knocking on the door spread far away in this quiet night, causing cocks to crow and dogs to bark in the distance, adding a dubbing to the night.
"Who? Knock on the door at such a late hour!"
The small door opened, and the servant complained angrily. With his weapon in his pocket, he stuck out his head vigilantly, and looked at Li Xing.
"See Master Zhang!"
Li Xing didn't declare his identity, but just stated his request lightly. He believed that the servants of this family still had some discernment, and the attitude of the Zhang family...
Sure enough, after looking Li Xing up and down, the servant curbed his anger, bowed his head respectfully, "This way please."
Other servants had already gone to report, so Li Xing quickly stood in front of Zhang Wu.
It was also in the main hall where Li Xing had been, and it was still brightly lit. Zhang Wu had already changed into a home robe, which was a little messy. Obviously, he had already fallen asleep before Li Xing arrived.
But at this moment, he still got up and greeted Li Xing in the main hall.
"I don't know that Mr. Li came late at night, and I am far away from welcoming you. Please forgive me."
"Patriarch, you don't need to be too polite!"
Li Xing didn't shy away from the purpose of coming late at night, and didn't make too many pleasantries, and said straightforwardly.
"Master Patriarch, is he willing to maintain the new trade route with the Liu family, and maintain the distribution ratio originally agreed with the Liu family?"
Zhang Wu was quite puzzled when he heard Li Xing's words, but he still maintained the demeanor of the patriarch of the big clan.
"Master Li, do you know the details of the cooperation between my Zhang family and the Liu family?"
"I don't know!" Li Xing shook his head, telling the truth.
Zhang Wu was not too surprised when he heard the words, but took the initiative to introduce the concealment to Li Xing.
"This business was initiated by my daughter-in-law in the first place. She is trusted by the leader of the Rong tribe for some reason. Many things are only released by the Rong tribe after she has passed through her hands."
"It is precisely because she controls this channel that our Zhang family is willing to spend our capital and our own manpower, material resources and relationships to do this business with the Liu family."
"But since my daughter-in-law's accident, this line has almost been broken! You don't know, the leader of the Rong clan doesn't sell the face of the rest of the Liu family at all!"
"I can't get those special goods. If I only do general business, my Zhang family can handle it with ease. Why do I need to bring the Liu family?"
Listening to Zhang Wu's explanation, Li Xing found that the situation was not much different from what he and others had grasped, and the special goods were, needless to say, chestnut poppies.
"What if I insist?" Li Xing said coldly, with no expression on his face.
"How much benefit have you received from the Liu family?"
Zhang Wu was stunned for a moment, with bitterness on his face, but before Zhang Wu could answer, a figure rushed out from the side and rushed towards Li Xing in a daze.
It was Zhang Wanbing who had long been hiding aside. Li Xing had already spotted him, but he didn't say anything, just wanting to see what he was going to do.
Zhang Wanbing grabbed Li Xing's neckline with a grim face.
"Not much, just 2000 taels!" Li Xing didn't dodge or resist, but just answered his question lightly.
"you……"
Li Xing's attitude made Zhang Wanbing unable to deal with it. His fists were bruised, but he didn't know what to do for a while.
"Wan Bing! Let go!" Zhang Wu's angry voice came.
"Father!" Zhang Wanbing was indignant, but he still let go of Li Xing's collar.
Li Xing didn't expect to let him go so easily, and his tone was cold.
"2000 taels is really not much. The matter between you and Miss Liu Ruoxi should be worth that much, right?"
Hearing the words, Zhang Wanbing felt as if struck by lightning, and his eyes suddenly turned dodgy, "What's the matter with me and Liu Ruoxi?"
With typical duplicity, Li Xing pulled a smile from the corner of his mouth, as if he had mastered everything.
After Zhang Wu heard Li Xing's words, he immediately understood what was going on. He stared at his eldest son coldly with wide eyes, but did not refute Li Xing's words.
"value!"
After paying half the salary, Zhang Wu gritted his teeth and said this sentence.
"Zhang San got your instruction to eat inside and out, should it be worth 1000 taels?"
Li Xing continued.
"value!"
Zhang Wu stared at his eldest son with an unbelievable look, but seeing Zhang Wanbing's head lower and lower, he obviously felt the coercion from his father.
"My lord, the Liu family has actually obtained the supply of Narong people through another method."
"This is impossible!"
After a moment of silence, he digested Li Xing's words, Zhang Wu raised his head again after hearing the words, his tone was very affirmative.
"Compromising with the Liu family is not a bad thing for your Zhang family!"
Li Xing slowly said his most important sentence tonight.
"At least it can put on a perfect layer of skin for your Zhang family's business!"
Zhang Wu narrowed his eyes, and Zhang Wanbing raised his head. For the first time, their gazes were fixed on Li Xing, as if it was the first time they really got to know this Lord Shangzong.
