I am a small factory doctor re-walking my life.

When Li Tang arrived at the teahouse, only Ma Ping'an came over.

This teahouse has been open for almost ten years. It has undergone a relatively large-scale renovation during the process. Now, students from the music school play music on the spot with folk instruments. It is antique and full of charm.

Now this place has become the first choice for many people to talk about things. There are also many people who come here just for the sake of the four bosses of the Qinling Group.

After all, even a little bit of work leaking out from the fingers of these four people can make many so-called bosses suffer.

Every time Li Tang comes here, he always drives the car directly into the backyard. He goes up to the dedicated private room on the second floor from the back, and this time is no exception.

Ma Pingan was already waiting in the private room. What was different from usual was that there was more than one person in the room, and there was also a beautiful tea artist he had never seen before. She was rinsing the tea set. It seemed that she had just arrived.

Hearing the noise, Ma Ping'an, who was reading the newspaper, turned his head and smiled, reaching out and pulling up the chair next to him.

"Sit down, I heard from my wife that Huihui and the children are not here tonight."

"Well, I went back to Qinshan with my father-in-law and mother-in-law in the afternoon to visit her grandfather."

"What happened to her grandpa?"

"It's okay. I just feel a little tired these days. I asked Red Guard to go over and take a look. It's okay."

The room was warm. After entering, Li Tang took off his work clothes and hung them on the clothes rack at the door, then sat down wearing a cotton shirt.

"How old is Grandpa Huihui?"

"This year will be ninety-five."

"Gaoshou, with you here, it shouldn't be a problem to live to be a hundred years old, right?"

Ma Ping'an's words made the beautiful tea master who was about to start making tea raise her eyes to look at Li Tang, and then quickly looked away.

"You have said that I am a fairy, but I can't guarantee that. At this age, I will live every day. Even though I seem to be in good health now, if I really die, it will be very fast, just like my master Master’s wife.”

"You're right. Now that you're older, you can't be sure."

"Why did you call me here today?"

"It's not a big deal, I just want to hear your opinion."

"Tell me, why do you still want to listen to my opinion?"

"I told Mu Mu, Junzi and Chengdong that I plan to retire and become a shareholder from now on and no longer participate in the specific affairs of the group. What do you think?"

Ma Ping'an's words made Li Tang's eyes widen instantly.

retire? Not even fifty yet...

"Why do you think so hard about retiring?"

"I just suddenly felt tired. Twenty years have passed since the earliest work team, and I haven't had much rest. I have made a lot of money, but I care less about my wife and children.

That day when I saw my son's textbook on his desk, I suddenly realized that I didn't even know what grade my son was in. At that time, I came up with the idea of ​​retiring.

It just so happens that the company's operations have now entered a new stage and are in need of professional talents. As a junior high school graduate, I do feel a bit struggling.

In this case, why should I work so hard when I can be a rich man comfortably at home? "

Seeing Ma Pingan's calm expression when he said these words, Li Tang knew that this guy was telling the truth.

"What did they say about the wood?"

"Of course I agree, and we have also agreed to retire one person a year. This year it will be me, next year Junzi, the year after that Chengdong, and finally wood. We will gradually hand over the power of operating the company to professionals. We It’s enough to just grasp the general direction when the time comes.”

Although Qinling Group still has some shares outside, that share is completely negligible. It can be said that it belongs to the four of them. As long as the articles of association are set and the financial system is improved, it can be completely left to professional managers to operate.

Li Tang didn't say anything and just nodded. In fact, he also wanted to retire and had already made this plan. Unfortunately...he couldn't just quit like Ping An and the others. If nothing else, he and the others would This will not be possible within ten years.

Thinking of this, he suddenly had the urge to hit someone. Mad, this guy definitely did it on purpose, to make me angry on purpose.

"So, you called me here specifically to tell me this?"

"Yes, I just want to ask your opinion."

"Come on, I don't know you yet. You just came to make me angry on purpose. You know that I have been thinking about retiring for a long time, so you deliberately told me your decision today." Li Tang raised his hand in anger. He hit Ma Ping'an on the shoulder.

What hurt Ma Ping'an was the grinning.

"Oh no, your hands are really dark. Do you want to beat me to death?"

"Who told you to come to me on purpose to show off?"

"Hahaha... I just want to see how dark your face can be."

Seeing that Li Tang wanted to say something else, the tea master had already brewed the tea. He held the small teacup with tweezers and placed it in front of them. Ma Pingan hurriedly stretched out his hand to signal.

"Come on, let's drink tea first and try this Dahongpao. This is given to us by a partner in Wuyi Mountain."

Li Tang rolled his eyes angrily, stretched out his hand to bring the tea cup over, put it under his nose and smelled it first.

After smelling it, just as he was about to drink it, the expression on his face changed slightly, and he put the cup under his nose again and smelled it again.

After smelling it for the second time, he didn't drink it. Instead, he directly placed the tea cup on the sea of ​​tea. He also raised his left hand to press the arm of Ma Ping'an who was about to drink water next to him.

"Well, what happened?"

"Drink later, I want to ask you something."

"What's the matter?" Ma Ping'an didn't insist. Although he didn't put down the small tea cup, he turned his head to look at Li Tang.

"Is this little girl new here? She's very pretty. Why haven't I seen her before?"

The face of the tea master he spoke to turned red, and he looked a little shy.

How should I put it, although money is not everything, it is definitely a man’s courage.

Although this tea master didn’t know who Li Tang was, and he looked quite plain in his clothing, he was able to sit with one of the founders and bosses of the Qinling Group, talk about such intimate topics, joke around casually, and even call the boss by his nickname. , even the vice president didn't fall out when he was beaten, he just laughed, he was definitely not an ordinary person.

Coupled with his delicate face, slightly white hair, and the indescribable aura on his body, the handsome man's sense of familiarity is very attractive to girls of Jiro's age.

Now that the handsome uncle has praised her, it’s strange that the little girl isn’t shy.

She was shy, but Ma Pingan looked at his little boy with a look of horror as if he had seen a ghost.

He is two years older than Li Tang, and they have known each other since Li Tang was born. This is the first time that he has heard this guy praise another woman besides his own. What is praised is the appearance.

Ma Ping'an turned around and looked at the tea artist with a look of disbelief. This little girl was quite beautiful, but to be honest, compared to Song Xiaohui, who wanted good looks and temperament, she was... Not even close.

Why, is this young man planning to have some fun while his wife and children are not at home?
Um? wrong!

Ma Ping'an suddenly thought of something. He lowered his head and looked at the tea cup in his hand that he had not put down. Then he looked at Li Tang's cup which had been placed on the sea of ​​tea and still had a sip of tea. His face suddenly became gloomy and he put down the cup in his hand. Put it on the sea of ​​tea.

Seeing that he seemed to have reacted, Li Tang stood up with a smile, raised his hand and patted Ma Ping'an on the shoulder.

"Well, they say it's a troubled autumn. I think it should be a troubled winter. Okay, I'll go over there first. If you get a letter later, let me know."

"Okay, I won't send you off."

"No need to send it off." After saying that, Li Tang moved the chair behind him and turned around to leave.

The tea sommelier was a little confused. What's going on? Why are we leaving now?

But she has no place to speak here.

At this moment, the private room door was pushed open. As soon as Qiao Mu came in, he saw Li Tang walking towards him and was immediately stunned.

"What's going on? You think I'm late and don't wait?"

"Haha, it has nothing to do with you. You guys have something to do here later. I'm not suitable to be there. Let's talk later."

"Uh... we have something going on here? Why don't I know what's going on here?" Qiao Mu was a little confused.

"Mu Mu, come on, let the third child go first. Come sit here and I'll tell you something." Ma Ping'an sat there and said without even looking back.

"Ah? Oh, what's wrong? Are you two quarreling?"

"We're just arguing. If I ask you to sit down, just sit down."

Li Tang had already walked to the door, picked up the work clothes hanging on the clothes rack, opened the private room door, and walked out without looking back.

His performance made Qiao Mu, who looked back, even more confused and completely confused.

He turned his head to look at Ma Pingan, only to find that this guy was sitting there motionless, staring straight at the tea sommelier, making the little girl's face turn red and she was embarrassed to speak.

"you……"

"Mumu" Ma Ping'an spoke first before Qiao Mu could speak.

"The third child just said that this little girl is beautiful, what do you think?"

"That's nonsense, why don't you, the third child..."

Otherwise, they had known Faxiao since they were babies. Qiao Mu also realized that something was wrong. These two Faxiao were so abnormal today.

"It's indeed pretty. The third child has good taste." He simply went on.

"Really?" Ma Ping'an chuckled, turned his head to look at Qiao Mu, and continued: "I have always believed in the third child's vision and sense of smell."

Smell?

None of them really like the smell of incense, so they never order incense in this special private room, let alone perfume. If there is a smell, besides the smell of smoke, it is the smell of the tea. .

Qiao Mu's eyes fell on the two undrinkable cups of tea on the sea of ​​​​tea and the filled teapot in front of the tea master.

It seems that the problem lies in the tea. "Okay, Ping An, stop playing charades, she can't run away from us."

No matter how stupid the little tea artist girl was, she could tell something was wrong at this moment. The blush on her face hadn't faded yet, so she raised her head in shock and met the gloomy gazes of the two big bosses.

"I don't know what the specific matter is now, but judging from Lao San's reaction just now, the problem should be the tea."

Before Ma Pingan finished speaking, the tea master sitting behind the sea of ​​tea had already reached out to stir up the sea of ​​tea.

She was faster, and Ma Pingan, who had been staring at her, was even faster. Before her hand could touch the things on the table, a rounded big-eared slap had already been slapped on her face.

Immediately, the little girl was whipped so hard that she fell down sideways along with the chair under her butt.

"Bang..."

The sea of ​​tea remained untouched.

This tea sea is in the shape of a tree stump made of solid wood. It is very big. Ten people can sit around it without feeling crowded. It weighs nearly a thousand kilograms. At that time, it took six or seven strong men to go up to the second floor with the strength of their old noses.

A little girl weighing more than 100 kilograms, let alone two hands, give her two more hands, and don't want this sea of ​​tea to shake.

With a loud banging sound, several security personnel sitting in the tea room opposite, who had been following Qiao Mu and Ma Pingan all year round, immediately rushed in with swing sticks.

At this time, Li Tang had already led Guo Dacheng to the stairs leading to the backyard. After hearing the movement, he looked back, his eyes full of solemnity.

There was condiment added to the tea just now. He didn't dare to say what it was, but it was definitely not good.

It is still unknown whether this matter is directed at Ma Ping'an and the others, or at Li.

But according to his estimation, it was more likely that he was targeting Ma Ping'an and the four of them, because the tea master just now obviously didn't know him at all.

No matter who he is here for now, he is not suitable to stay here anymore. He can just leave it to those few to deal with it. They all have experience in this kind of thing.

……

In the private room, Qiao Mu ignored the tea master who was still in a coma and was helped up by security and fixed on a chair. Instead, he carefully put his head on the tea cup and smelled it for a while, but couldn't smell anything.

What he smelled was Dahongpao, but judging from the woman's reaction just now, the problem must be the tea.

After smelling it, he straightened up and turned to look at the unconscious tea sommelier.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, Ping An, you really don't show mercy at all. Look at this slap, such a beautiful little girl has been beaten into a pig's head by you."

Isn't that right? The half of the tea master's face that was slapped was already visibly red and swollen.

"The rest is up to you. You have more experience in this kind of thing than me."

Ma Pingan rubbed his hands and walked aside.

The effect of force is mutual. The angry slap just now not only knocked the tea master over, but also felt some pain in his hand.

"You said this as if I often do these shameful things."

"I didn't say that, I just said that you have more experience than me."

"Okay, you go back first and tell Junzi and Chengdong not to come over. Just keep an eye out and don't let your wife and my wife come running over, especially the children."

"Don't worry, we will definitely stop them all."

"Um"

"By the way, Mu Mu, if you believe me, let me know first."

"I know. Don't be too busy. Find a watertight cup with a lid, put the tea in it, and send it to the third child. I guess he hasn't left yet. Let him test it to see what's inside. What the hell."

"Yes, I would have forgotten it if you didn't tell me. This is very important."

……

Li Tang did not leave after he came out. Instead, he asked Xiao Pan to park the car on the curb outside. He opened the window a crack, smoked a cigarette, and observed the vehicles and pedestrians coming and going outside.

Soon, an unmarked dark red Santana 2000 diagonally across the road caught his attention.

Although it was dark and he couldn't see clearly what was going on in the car, when he was observing just now, he clearly saw the car shaking slightly, which meant that there must be someone in the car.

It was so cold that the car didn't start, so people stayed in the car, and the parked position just made it possible to see the windows on the first floor of the teahouse.

"Dacheng, give me your phone."

He took the mobile phone handed over by Guo Dacheng, opened it, and made a call.

"Wood, there is an unmarked dark red Santana 2000 parked on the road diagonally across from the teahouse. Ask someone to go over and take a look."

"Okay, by the way, Third Brother, I'll let Ping An go first. He just came down and took the tea just now. You can help test it to see what's in it."

"No problem, Mu Mu, my men are a little heavy-handed. No matter what, don't go too far. If you should leave it to the police, leave it to the police. Don't get yourself into trouble. It's not worth it."

"Don't worry, I plan to find out what's going on and hand it over to the police. Uh... Third child, I'm afraid I'll have to hand it over to the police along with the video data in this house. Over there..."

"It's okay. Just pay what you have to. It won't affect me."

"That's fine. I'll hang up now. I'll let you know when I get a letter later."

"Um"

After hanging up the phone, Li Tang saw a security guard who often followed Ma Pingan walking out of the back door of the teahouse, holding two cups in his hand.

"Dacheng, go and take the cup."

"it is good"

After receiving the cups, Li Tang left here first and sent the two cups filled with tea to the research institute. He asked the laboratory technician on duty at night to help test what was in the water, and then he returned home.

The first thing you see when you open the door is always Coal Ball's big black head.

Coal Ball seemed to know that the little master would not come back today. After rubbing his head affectionately with Li Tang a few times, he climbed onto the carpet in front of the sofa again, but kept staring at the master.

When Xiao Sanyue goes out, he is usually not allowed to receive briquettes. No matter how well trained it is and how humane it is, it is still a dog in the end, and a large one. Some people like it, while others are afraid of it.

For children, it is better to let them interact with others more, instead of immersing themselves in their own world all day long.

The first reason why I wanted Briquette back was to let it grow up with March, and the other was to make March responsible.

So far, it seems that both of these have played their due role.

After Li Tang went into the house and washed up, he was going to go out for a walk in the yard and take a walk with briquettes. March was not at home, so the task of walking the dog naturally fell on him. If there was no one at home, then A little later, the logistics staff from the compound will come and take it out.

Coal Ball is a large dog with lots of energy. He needs to be walked at least twice a day, and each time should be no less than an hour. He should also be allowed to go out for a good run instead of just walking slowly on a leash.

If it doesn't expend its energy well, let alone a briquette that has only received training for half a year, even a serious police dog will tear down a house. This may be the dog's nature.

The bored coal ball was crawling on the carpet when he heard the male owner whistle. He stood up and rushed to the door, sticking out his tongue and laughing. There was a smile on the dog's face, and his big tail was wagging happily.

Although it is so obedient now, if the little master is at home, as long as he does not go out in March, even if Li Tang whistles until there is no saliva in his mouth, it will not pay attention to it.

As soon as it goes out, this guy starts to have fun, running now and then, sometimes after. What you don't have to worry about is that as long as it sees someone on the road, it will run back to its owner.

He walked around the road twice. It was almost eight o'clock in the winter, and there were no people wandering around in the yard. As Li Tang walked, he thought about what had just happened.

Next year will be the New Year again, and all kinds of monsters and monsters are already starting to stir up troubles. Although his identity as director of the consultative committee will not change unless unexpectedly, there are still people who want to take advantage of the fire, just like Yao Liangzhong did seven years ago.

If what happened just now was against him, then who was the person behind it? What's in the tea?
Want to poison him directly? It's unlikely, unless it's his enemy.

Because if something happens to him, it will definitely cause an earthquake. At that time, it will not be the police involved in the investigation.

If it's not against him, then it's against Ma Ping'an and the four of them. They have indeed offended a lot of people over the years, because the cake is so big now. If you make money away, others will not make any. If you want to There are definitely not a few people who killed the four of them.

Ugh……

"Jingle Bell"

Just as he was thinking about it, the cell phone in his pants pocket suddenly rang.

"Hey"

"Third brother, I'm asking. This matter has nothing to do with you. It's for us."

The call was from Qiao Mu. As soon as the call was connected, he spoke concisely and concisely.

"Did you tell me what was in the tea?"

"Contraband, they planned to call the police after drinking the water. In fact, they also knew that this matter would not do anything to us, so they also prepared the media reporters and planned to report this matter Exposed.

The reason why we do this is actually very simple. The boss of Qinling Group is involved in contraband. Although the matter is not serious, it will make many places afraid to cooperate with us, which will disrupt our projects. "

"Who ordered it?"

"They said they didn't know. They were approached by a middleman. The person in the car parked across the street you mentioned was the same person as the woman. They were just waiting for the signal from the woman to call the police.

I have now handed the person over to the people from the Contraband Control Team of the district bureau. "

"Just hand it over. You two should be more vigilant. It's best not to use strangers around you. If you do, you have to be knowledgeable."

"You're right. I was really careless this time. I didn't expect anyone to do this. Thanks to you being here today, otherwise, we wouldn't be able to smell the smell of the tea."

"I won't say that anymore, uh... you gave me the tea just now, what will the police do?"

"There's still enough left for them to test."

"it is good"
