Although he was restless, Xiaoxiao still reminded everyone to keep this matter secret first. After all, Jiushan just opened the door to do business, which made people feel panicked.

Yanran smiled and was very entertained. Since she was out of danger, she was with everyone again, so she left this matter behind her.

Meng Jiu found the person in charge of Jiushan Tourism Association and told him about the matter, asking him to strengthen the public security management of the tourist area.

Meng Qi will not talk about business for the time being, and only says that it is important to solve this matter first.

Xiaoxiao went to the top of the mountain and finished painting the portrait of Ning Wang Furong, and then said that there were some things in the family business, and maybe you need to leave Jiushan in advance.

Furong couldn't see any clues from Xiaoxiao's calm face. After King Ning asked a few questions, Furong said: "If it's a business matter, Yingyuan will definitely be able to solve it."

King Ning also believed in this: "Well, a rare businessman."

Xiaoxiao only asked Furong to help take care of Yanran and said that they were young and only brought their maids over.

Furong asked Xiaoxiao to rest assured.

So, Xiaoxiao didn't even eat lunch, so she hurried down the mountain. Meng Qi was worried, so she followed her all the way.

The two of them talked little, and Meng Qi couldn't help but say, "Yingyuan is not someone who is scared by such things."

The Tang family has a strong background, and one or two thief liars will not take it seriously unless...

"Is this incident targeting Yingyuan?" Meng Qi asked.

"I'm not sure, either."

"Is it an enemy?"

"have no idea."

"When Yingyuan is not a relative or acquaintance, she can help me with her heart and soul. She is my friend Meng Qi. I will do my best to find out about this matter. If Yingyuan can be used, I will help, both openly and secretly."

Xiaoxiao was a little moved: "If I need Brother Meng Qi's help in the future, I will never be polite."

Meng Qi wanted to say something, but hesitated a little: "I wonder... when I was about to reach the top of the mountain, did Yingyuan notice that tall man?"

Xiaoxiao said this and his heart trembled: "What?"

"It's just intuition that Yingyuan seems to know him." Meng Qi walked in front, unable to see his expression.

Xiaoxiao doesn't want to talk about family affairs to outsiders at the moment, so she stared at Meng Qi's back and said, "Speak to the tone, Brother Meng Qi knows him too?"

Meng Qi stopped and looked at Xiaoxiao who followed him: "I have asked someone to follow him, but I only know that there is a house by the Xingwen River."

"Why follow him?" Xiaoxiao asked hurriedly.

"Anyway, I won't do the business in the past, so it's okay to talk to you." Meng Qi stopped and looked at the big rocks on the side of the road covered with red leaves. He didn't care about it, so he sat up directly.

Xiaoxiao also sat on the stone next to her. Unexpectedly, this matter would find a breakthrough on Meng Qi: "Do you know, who is the name of that person?"

"I don't know."

“…”

Meng Qi said slowly: "The reason I know him is because he is my colleague."

Xiaoxiao was stunned. This statement was beyond his expectations.

"As for our former underground money house, if it is divided into ten, I can occupy six points, this person can account for two points, and the rest are some miscellaneous little people."

"He drives an underground money house?" Xiaoxiao was shocked.

Meng Qi gave affirmation: "Yes, I followed the clues over the years before finally finding him. His money shops are very mysterious, and they almost only do underground business of merchants in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. I checked for two or three years before I found out the manager. He actually looked at a teahouse on the surface, he was a small boss who was not ostentatious on the outside, and he was even a little timid and afraid of things."

Smiling, the two lines in his mind seemed to be connected: "Is the teahouse boss you mentioned the surname Xin?"

Meng Qi looked at it and laughed: "That's right."

Xiaoxiao signaled Meng Qi to continue talking.

"In addition, this Xin not only conceals the business of the underground money house, but also monopolizes the transaction of Longquan Kiln in Kyoto. This person is from Longquan and runs several important kilns in Longquan Kiln. The porcelain merchants in Kyoto are all picking up goods from him." Meng Qi pulled out a Lingling grass on the ground and held it in his mouth. "I have always been unable to understand this. If the underground business is not enough, it would be fine. What can the serious porcelain business be hidden? Out of curiosity, I have been looking for someone to check him."

Xiaoxiao looked at the red leaves all over the stone path, listening to these surprising information in his ears. - Unexpectedly, this information was obtained from Meng Qi's mouth.

"The person behind him is very mysterious and has almost never appeared. Until the last year, their family suddenly opened up a new business, which is also underground," Meng Qi turned his eyes and looked at him and smiled, "I figured it out after thinking about it. This business does have something to do with your Tang family."

"What is it?" The first thing that flashed through Xiaoxiao's mind was the gold or jewelry business. After all, these things do have a black market.

"It's brocade." Meng Qi slowly said these three words, "At that time, their people always ran to new places. At first, they thought they had opened a new money shop, so we had to guard against it, so we secretly followed it. But they were a big brocade, and the brocade they made was very gorgeous and was definitely not affordable by ordinary well-off families."

It seems that the brocades of Chu Dianqiu’s palace are made in this brocade spinning.

"It was in this mysterious brocade workshop that we found the man's place. Although he had only appeared there twice, his behavior was like a big boss. If it were not unexpected, the one named Xin was obedient to his command." Meng Qi spit out the grass mark on his mouth, picked a few sand fruits from the tree beside him, and threw them to Xiaoxiao. He rubbed it with his hands and ate it. His fingers were very rough, and he wore a conspicuous amber ring on his left thumb.

Xiaoxiao held the sand fruit and was not in a mood for eating for a while: "When did that person's underground money house open?"

"It's been at least five or six years."

It turned out that Chu Dianqiu had already come back, to be precise, his eyes and minions had already come back.

"A while ago, thoroughly investigated the underground business. Has his money house also been affected?"

Meng Qiyi sneered: "Things that the Meng family can't escape, and it's even more impossible for others to stay alone. They are a few days slower than me, so they probably lost a lot."

"Where is his underground brocade spinning?"

“In Jinan.”

"Jinan?"

"Yes, he has business there, and one of the underground money houses is open in Jinan, which should be earlier than the ones in Kyoto."

"Brother Meng Qi checked so much," Xiaoxiao wiped Xiaoshaguo with a veil, "Can't we find out the true identity of this person?"

"I can't find out that this person rarely goes to the house by the Xingwen River. He acts more low-key than the one named Xin on weekdays." Meng Qi gnawed the sour sand fruit, "Besides, I don't care much about the business on the surface. In addition to running teahouses and Longquan kilns, they must also do other businesses."

"Does Brother Meng Qi know about Ji Da Nian?"

"Who?" Meng Qi has not adapted to this sudden change of topic.

"It's a tea merchant, and it's a happy new year."

Meng Qiyi felt familiar: "Is it the case that happened in Kyoto a while ago? That Qi Danian's wife suddenly died strangely."

"Yes, it's this Ji Da Nian."

"If this case hadn't happened, I'd never noticed this person." Meng Qi looked at him in confusion, "He has something to do with these things?"

Xiaoxiao bit the scoop of the sand fruit, sweet and sour, "Actually, I don't know much about the relationship here. After you talk about it, I think that mysterious man is even more difficult."

Meng Qi's later words meant some comforting: "What's wrong with it? Isn't it just a businessman? It's just a more popular world than us. If he was really not simple, he wouldn't have been tracked down so much by me, nor would he have caused his money bank to suffer heavy losses."

Xiaoxiao smiled faintly, thinking that Meng Qi's words also make some sense.

"I'm just curious about how this person communicates with his subordinates. My people are closely following him, but I have never seen him have any contact with the person surnamed Xin. In addition, what you mentioned Ji Da Nian makes people feel even more confusing."

But there was a clear point in Xiaoxiao's mind, which was like a hub, connecting intricate lines together.

This point is Xin Ran.

Only in this way can we explain the three reasons for their identities: Xin Ran, Mao Yan'er, and Mrs. Ji.

Maybe there are more identities unknown.

The contact information between Chu Dianqiu and Xin Ran is something that ordinary people would never imagine - Qin Yu.

If Gong Basheng hadn't been there that night, Xiaoxiao would never have known about Qin Yu's mysterious existence.

Therefore, Chu Dianqiu secretly established his own business kingdom five or six years ago, or even earlier, from underground money houses to ground teahouses, porcelain shops and bulk tea dealing businesses... These are enough to accumulate wealth for him and always prepare for a comeback.

He was very careful and rarely appeared in public until now. No wonder Meng Qi didn't recognize him - the owner of Dianqiutang actually named the shop after his real name.

In addition to Xin Ran, there is also Yun Yi, who is well hidden by him. He only sees his works, but never sees him.

Xiaoxiao suddenly felt that he was very weak, and even his family was very weak, and it was a kind of weakness standing on the surface.

...

Gugu, I don’t know whose stomach is screaming.

Neither of them had lunch, and now they only ate some sand fruits, which was not resistant to hunger.

Xiaoxiao stood up and said, "Let's go down the mountain quickly, I'll treat you to a good meal!"

Meng Qi said, "You must have something more important to do. When you return to Kyoto, you can make an appointment with me at any time. Let's have a meal and discuss the express business."

Xiaoxiao knew Meng Qi's temper and was not polite to him: "Okay, just one word is certain."

"Let's go to Tang Lihuan's Ezhimei Painting Boat and eat him poorly!" Meng Qi's tone was a little vicious, "I thought back then, I wanted to arrange a few girls to enter his pleasure boat to do the flower boat business. He was smiling and blocked me again and again, and firmly disagree."

Xiaoxiao listened to Meng Qi's words, this was something new that I had never heard of before.

Meng Qi said, "If Yingyuan was there at that time, maybe he would have given me a trick and would not have fallen into this field."

Xiaoxiao said: "Meng Qi Ge's transformation this time has nothing to do with the defeat of underground business, it's just that Brother Meng Qi has figured it out."

Meng Qi laughed.

Xiaoxiao remembered that he was a little hesitant last night and had a deep negotiation with Meng Qi, but today he suddenly got rewards. He didn't feel that he was willing to give up these Buddhist principles.

Just as he was thinking, he suddenly saw Jinsuo, a servant beside his father, running up the mountain path and waved to him from a distance: "Girl! The carriage at home is waiting at the foot of the mountain. The master sent a young man to pick up the girl down the mountain!"
